100 ways to trick a boy into going to sleep

Chapter 800 Begonia Spring

But Wen Xue was even more terrified!

Isn't that the lecherous rogue sitting next to the master the one who asked for the lady's name?

He is His Highness Prince Qi?!

......

Jin Huan didn't show up for the meal.

The two brothers ate in silence, neither saying a single word to the other.

Li Jie longed to see Haitang one last time.

But his elder brother's face was as black as charcoal, so he dared not say anything for the time being.

However, feeling unwilling to leave just like that, I could only linger and eat for an hour and a half without putting down my chopsticks, occasionally stirring the food in my bowl.

Li Yin could easily see through his younger brother's little scheme.

He had a better relationship with Sanhu than with his other brothers since childhood. Now that his second brother's political achievements did not belong to him, Sanhu still firmly supported him. For this reason alone, he could be modest towards Li Jie in most matters.

If I had to be more specific, it would be something like this: apart from that position and her, everything else could be handed over without hesitation.

Now, it concerns Huan'er.

Regardless of how the fourth brother is feeling right now, he is also quite troubled!

Just thinking about it.

The gatekeeper came to report that Governor Yang had arrived again.

He was anxious about Yang Fang last night, and anxious about the Sanhu incident today. He was already extremely troubled, so he refused to see anyone and sent a servant to the door to dismiss him. Unfortunately, the servant soon returned.

It wasn't yet unbearably hot and humid, but fine beads of sweat had already appeared on the other person's forehead, and his tone was quite urgent: "Master, Governor Yang has brought another person with him, it's the young master of the Wang family of Taiyuan!"

"what!"

Upon hearing this, the two brothers, Li Yin and Li Jie, stood up at the same time.

The original Confucian civil officials gradually formed into powerful clans through long-term development and generational inheritance, among which the five surnames and seven prominent families were the most successful.

Later, thanks to the recommendation system, the power of recommendation was monopolized by the five surnames and seven clans.

Over time, their political, wealth, and prestige accumulations reached their peak, making them the pinnacle of powerful clans and aristocratic families.

The Yang family of Hongnong was only a small branch, but the Wang family of Taiyuan was a household name!

My father claimed to be a descendant of the Longxi Li clan, one of the five prominent families, but this was later denied by the Li clan.

This clearly demonstrates his status.

Nowadays, everyone in Datongli wants to form marriage alliances with those powerful families to elevate their social standing.

Li Yin's marriage is already arranged, but that doesn't mean he doesn't want to befriend the disciples of the Five Clans and Seven Noble Families!

"Please!"

......

In the hall, Li Yin sat at the head of the table, with Wang Shi at the lower right, Li Jie at the lower left, and Yang Fang at the right next to him.

"I wonder what brings you here so suddenly, Brother Wang?" Li Yin adopted the demeanor of a crown prince, trying his best to appear more amiable, after all, the man before him was also a scholar.

Wang Ze and Crown Prince Yin bowed to each other.

His eyes shone with undisguised elation!

"I have a favor to ask of Your Highness!" "Please speak freely, Brother."

Wang Ze was highly renowned and exceptionally talented, and Li Yin had long intended to recruit him as a retainer.

We just never had the chance to meet.

Now that this person has come to him, he must accept the offer.

Wang Ze awkwardly made a fist with one hand and coughed softly, pressing it against his lips.

Then her ear tips turned pink, and she seemed a little shy and bashful: "Today, on the Lantern Festival, I went out to the streets with my betrothed wife. We were not very crowded, and I searched everywhere for her, but I could not find her anywhere."

Li Yin's eyelids twitched involuntarily!

As expected, Wang Ze's next words were: "Brother Yang said that he happened to see my wife being rescued by Your Highness and is now staying at your residence. I implore Your Highness to allow me to take my wife home!"
