Chapter 150 Li Xuzhou's Identity

Ying Dongjun: "Very good, let's go and go back to Beijing."

The carriage began to drive towards the capital again.

After Xiao Jixiang sat down, he finally couldn't help asking: The princess has a grudge against that Li Xuzhou?

Ying Dongjun: "Will that be there?"

Xiao Jixiang was puzzled. Although his princess was willful, she would not fool people for no reason.

Ying Dongjun picked up the jade pendant that Li Xuzhou gave her, played with it for a moment in his hand, and sighed: "But who made him Li Changfu's grandson? This palace hates people from the fourth family the most."

Xiao Jixiang was shocked when he heard this: The Li Xuzhou just now was Li Changfu's grandson?

Ying Dongjun: "Yes. His real name is Li Hongcheng. He is the eldest grandson of the Li family, the future patriarch of the Li clan, and is currently the young minister of Qingzhou Prefecture."

Xiao Jixiang looked hard to describe it. If the princess told him which building Li Xuzhou was, he might believe it more.

Xiao Jixiang: Didn’t the princess recognize him before? Logically speaking, the princess must have met Li Hongcheng.

Ying Dongjun: "I have seen him several times, so when I saw the portrait before, I felt familiar, but I just couldn't remember who it was. After all, Li Hongcheng didn't look like he is now."

Xiao Jixiang was curious: What does that look like?

Ying Dongjun thought for a while before commenting: "Always serious... it's almost like Yu Lang."

Xiao Jixiang imagined in his heart that one day Yu Shunchen became Li Xuzhou's evil look, and he couldn't help but shivered in his heart.

Xiao Jixiang: Then he didn't recognize the princess just now?

Ying Dongjun took off her hat after getting on the carriage. When he got off the car, he didn't wear it back. Li Xuzhou saw her face clearly.

Ying Dongjun said indifferently: "Who knows?"

Xiao Jixiang: Regardless of whether he recognized the princess or not, the princess made him foolishly, and when he returned to the Li family, he would be afraid that he would take revenge on the princess. I told me that I should take the opportunity to kill him directly and then blame Qinglianzhai.

"Make him?" Ying Dongjun smiled, "Do you think I am idle? It is easy to kill him, but that is not what I want."

Xiao Jixiang: Could it be that the princess has other plans?

Ying Dongjun smiled: "As soon as I recognized him, I felt that this was God's will."

Xiao Jixiang didn't understand what Ying Dongjun meant. Why did the princess meet Li Xuzhou and it became God's will?

Ying Dongjun returned to the princess's mansion in a carriage, and then instructed Zhou Yan to call Lu Si Niang.

On the other side of Dengdi Street, Lu Siniang recruited more than a dozen people from Shantang to serve as a helper for the Gu family. She would go to Dengdi Street every day to take a look, and then in the afternoon she would return to the princess's mansion and wait for the princess to be sent.

Knowing that the princess left the city today, she did not go out and stayed in the mansion forever, for fear that if the princess came back early, she would have to do something.

Unexpectedly, she guessed it.

"Princess, what are your instructions?" Lu Siniang hurried to Ying Dongjun's yard and asked.

Ying Dongjun handed Li Xuzhou's jade pendant to her and ordered: "Secretly send this to Li Changfu's mansion, and tell the Li family that Li Hongcheng was robbed on his way back to Beijing."

"Yes." Lu Siniang took the jade pendant with both hands, "I promise that God will deliver the jade pendant to the Li family with the news without knowing it!"

Ying Dongjun knew that Lu Siniang was reliable in doing things, so he nodded with a smile, "Go."

Lu Siniang took away the jade pendant and bowed to her.

When Xiao Jixiang saw this, he suddenly realized: Could it be... the princess's move was to fight the Li family and Qinglian Village?

Ying Dongjun said, "Besides forcing the robbery of the civilians in Qinglian Village, I have never heard of any serious evil things done in recent years. What did this palace provoke them?"

The answer that Xiao Jixiang finally came up with was denied and became more and more confused.

Ying Dongjun: "You said, what would you do if the Li family knew that the people from Qinglian Village kidnapped Li Xuzhou?"

Xiao Jixiang: Of course, I went to save the person! Could it be that the eldest grandson of the Li family really wanted to be the husband of the village?

Ying Dongjun nodded, "Then how will the Li family save people?"

Xiao Jixiang didn't think about it: it's worth mentioning! Of course, he ordered the blockade of all roads, and then sent out all the troops he could send to grab Li Xuzhou back!

Ying Dongjun laughed when he heard this, "No matter how powerful the Li family is, Li Changfu is just a censor. Who gave him the right to command the soldiers and generals of the Great Saint Dynasty? Collusion between civil and military officials has always been a taboo for superiors. Last time, Li Changfu personally voluntarily used the flying cavalry guards, which made Empress Xiao dissatisfied. This time, I am looking forward to the performance of the Li family."

Xiao Jixiang then suddenly realized: It turned out that the princess’s goal was the Li family and the Xiao family!

Ying Dongjun spoke softly, but he felt indescribable and cruel, "The target of this palace has always been four families!"

Lu Siniang soon sent the news that the jade pendant and Li Xuzhou were robbed to the Li family.

Li Changfu, who was ill in bed, sat up straight from the bed and lifted the bowl of medicine from the maid's hand when he heard the news.

"What did you say? Say it again!"

Li Hongling, who came to report the news, was glared by Li Changfu's blood-filled eyes, and took a step back, then hurried forward and handed over the letter and jade pendant he received, "Grandpa, someone just threw this to our mansion, saying that his elder brother was kidnapped."

Li Changfu grabbed the jade pendant and took a closer look and realized that the jade pendant was indeed the one worn by his grandson since childhood.

Li Hongling, "In addition, the person we sent to pick up my elder brother came back yesterday, but they didn't receive anyone. The servant from Qingzhou said that my elder brother had already set off for Beijing. Logically speaking, my elder brother should have arrived in the capital five days ago. So what the letter said...is probably true."

Li Changfu couldn't help but cover his mouth and coughed. Li Hongling hurriedly went up to pat his back for him, but after getting closer, he couldn't help but take a breath.

After Li Changfu put down his hand, a trace of blood actually spilled out of the corner of his mouth.

"Grandpa, you..." Li Hongling asked anxiously.

Li Changfu picked up the handkerchief handed by the maid, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, took a look, and threw it aside indifferently.

"Where is your grandfather, ask him to come and see me." Li Changfu said coldly.

Li Hongling, "After my grandfather saw the letter, he asked the manager to take most of the people in the mansion out of the city to find his elder brother. He is now busy sending letters to the stations leading to various post roads in the capital, and asked the stations to send people to help find people!"

The post stations of the Great Sage Dynasty were well-connected and were covered with official roads. Generally, after the government orders in the court were issued, they could spread throughout the Great Sage within two months. Finding people through the post station is the fastest and most effective way.

Li Changfu nodded, "Your grandfather is thoughtful. But they dared to rob the eldest grandson of my Li family. They must have some support. The people at the post station cannot handle anything." After Li Changfu said that, he coughed a few more times, then got out of the bed.

Li Hongling hurriedly went up to help him, "Grandpa, what are you going to do, just give me some instructions."

Li Changfu thought he was in the way, so he pushed him away and went straight to the study.
