fool from heaven

Looking at the dark, thin and strong young man in front of him, Qin Li's eyes turned slightly red.He took off his grimace mask, and smiled stiffly: "My boy, you actually learned how to play shrimp from me, and even spread your reputation."

Wen Lang curled his lips, and compared with his fingers: "It's still a little bit worse, Uncle Bao, you must be hiding something!"

Qin Li burst into laughter.Wen Lang also scratched his head with a smirk.

For a long time, they were silent, and the air was a little dull.Wen Lang finally couldn't take it anymore, flattened his mouth, rushed into Qin Li's arms and cried loudly: "Uncle Bao, Uncle Bao, I, I am so miserable, I miss you so much!"

Qin Li gently patted Wen Lang's head. "It's fine, it's fine."

Qingshi also wiped away his tears: "Eldest young master really suffered a lot, and the Fan family deserved it for what happened today."

Speaking of Fan's house, Wen Lang raised his head sharply: "Uncle Bao, I, I have found the trace of A Ling, and I have already sent someone there."

Qin Li suddenly opened his eyes wide: "Where is it!"

"Fan Mansion."

As soon as the words fell, the person who had just been sent out came back in a hurry: "Master, we were one step too late. For some reason, those people withdrew in a hurry. The guards are all masters, and none of our people are opponents."

"Let's go! How come, it's so late..."

Qin Li's pupils shrank suddenly: "Those, what kind of people are they?"

"In addition to the Jianghu master guards, there are two children and a seriously injured woman."

Seeing that Qin Li's expression was not good, the man hurriedly added: "We searched the courtyard where they were, and found the words 'Ling' and 'Jin' on the table legs in one of the rooms."

Wen Lang jumped anxiously: "It must be Ah Ling and Ah Jin!"

"There are also words here." Zhao Yuyin was hidden in the corner, his voice slightly low.

He pointed to a table in front of him, and sure enough, there were two crooked words engraved on the table legs.

Ling and Jin.

"They've been here!" Wen Lang said in surprise, "Yes! I, I remembered that some time ago, Housekeeper Fan Er had to order two servings of shrimp every day to take back home. From this point of view, it must be Ah Ling who came. Passed here, and left a message hoping I could see it. But then, for some reason, I couldn’t leave the house, so I could only order a portion of shrimp every day to go home, and deliberately revealed the matter of senna leaves to Housekeeper Fan Er..."

"A Ling has been trying to find a way to contact me, but at that time, I, I didn't know..."

Wen Lang looked at Qin Li with some despair: "Uncle Bao, we almost found A Ling and A Jin."

At that time, Qingshi was busy with the pier, so he only left Wen Lang with Zhao Yu to protect him.Zhao Yu had never met Wen Ling, and his duty was to protect Wen Lang.Doesn't pay attention to anything else at all.For a while, I was quite annoyed.

Qin Li clenched his fists tightly and beat the table beside him hard.

He should have thought of it earlier!

That woman, he was familiar with, because she was Chen Wang Zhu Huai's elder sister, who was in love with North Vietnam Princess Yongning Zhu Manyi!

The biological mothers of these two siblings were Concubines Rong, who were of low birth and were not favored. They were not promoted to concubines until the birth of the prince.

More than ten years ago, when North Vietnam had a powerful army, Da Chu easily dared not compete with it, so he sent the princess to marry him.

Beiyue and Dachu have been fighting endlessly for more than a hundred years, and Beiyue's wolf ambitions will never be willing to settle down in a corner, and getting married is only an expedient measure.To put it bluntly, it is to exchange the status of a princess, plus Da Chu's silk, gold, silver and rice grains, in exchange for a short period of peace at the border.

Everyone knew what would happen to a princess of a foreign race who fell into a savage clan known for its ferocity.

Such drudgery naturally fell on the unfavored Zhu Manyi.At that time, she didn't have any title, if it wasn't for the mention of the marriage, Emperor Chu might not even remember that she still had a daughter.

Therefore, the Emperor of Chu greeted Concubine Rong, mother and son, sent a large amount of gold and silver to Concubine Rong's palace, made Zhu Manyi Princess Yongning, and went to North Vietnam to marry her.At the same time, the prince Zhu Huai was named King Chen as a reward.

Soon after, North Vietnam launched another war, and news came from the front that Princess Yongning died.

Concubine Rong couldn't bear the blow, she fell ill and passed away not long after.Since then, the originally inconspicuous King Chen Zhu Huai offended the Emperor Chu repeatedly, causing the Emperor Chu to be furious, deprived of his title, and demoted to a commoner.Since then, King Chen has disappeared.

According to the investigation in the past few years, Qin Li is almost certain that the force behind Shengyuantang is Chen Wang Zhu Huai!Seeing Princess Yongning here now, the remaining one or two points of uncertainty have become even more certain.

"Uncle Bao, it's all my fault. If I hurry up, Ah Ling..." Wen Lang's thin shoulders drooped, and a flash of guilt flashed in his eyes.

Qin Li came back to his senses and patted him on the shoulder: "You have done a good job. At least we have found a clue, right? As long as the person is still there, one day, we will be reunited."

Wen Lang nodded sullenly.

Qin Li frowned and thought.

A few years ago, many ministers in the court proposed to find the deposed King Chen. After all, everyone thought that the little prince was dead, and King Yu Chen was the only one in the Zhu family.If Zhu's orthodoxy is restored, a group of veteran officials will definitely find King Chen back.

Of course, as far as the current situation is concerned, those old ministers proposed such a plan without knowing whether King Chen is still alive. Who knows if Zhu Huai secretly instructed it.

This person can be named Ning Huai, who has been hiding in Xiushan Village as a teacher for so many years, and his mental endurance is absolutely extraordinary.

Looking back at that time, the year Princess Yongning died, the North Vietnam invaded, the Great Chu retreated steadily, King Ning died in battle, and almost lost Yangping Pass.It was also at that time that King Xin asked himself to go out to repel the North Vietnam, causing heavy losses to the North Vietnam, and it took three years to recover.

But in the second year after leaving North Vietnam, King Xin was designed to expel the capital and guard the northern border.

Qin Li thought of Lingshan Yingjiao Peak again.

This Princess Yongning cheated her death back then, but now she is a member of Shengyuantang.These two siblings are definitely not pure and good people, but I don't know what role they played in that battle back then.

Qin Li rubbed his eyebrows irritably.

With Ajin and Aling in their hands, there shouldn't be any danger for the time being.But who is the instigator of today's pier?

Officials outside searched it all night, and Yuanbao Xia belonged to the Fan family's shop, so naturally no one came to search.A few people simply warmed up the food, and listened to Wen Lang talk about the circumstances of these years.

The further he listened, the deeper Qin Li's eyes became, like a bottomless vortex, the darkness was terrifying.

Shengyuantang's methods are really powerful. From this point of view, the teenagers detained in Hongshan Village, Ji County were sent to these people in exchange for benefits.

Simply insane!

"Uncle Bao, it's all over. Those two people, I told them to kill themselves."

Qin Li patted Wen Lang's head: "After all, he's still a child."

Wen Lang smiled warmly: "Uncle Bao, let's talk about your family. How is Second Uncle? Where's Wen Yu? Wen Yu has grown a lot, right? Shouldn't he be a scholar?"

Qin Li was silent and shook his head.

Wen Lang couldn't tell what it was like to learn that Wen Yu had abandoned literature and pursued martial arts.His father was a rough man, and so was he.They hoped that the old Wen's family would produce a scholar, and Wen Yu liked to read since he was a child, and he was very knowledgeable.It is very promising to be a scholar.

Unexpectedly, Wen Yu, who used to like hanging book bags the most, joined the army.

"As the world changes, people will change too. As long as you don't forget your original intention, you will be able to stay forever." Qin Li said.

Wen Lang nodded: "Yes, both civil and martial arts, both moral and ability, this is what dad wants to see most."

"how about you?"

"Me?" Wen Lang glanced at Qin Li in confusion, then laughed and said, "Of course I will continue my dream, open a small restaurant, and be a businessman!"

"Also called Yuanbao Shrimp?"

"No, I'm pushing Fugui Shrimp this time!"

Qin Li and the others did not leave Li County for the time being, but were waiting for follow-up news about the dock.

Sure enough, Jiangzhou officials arrived the next day.

The wharf at Fufengkou was damaged and could not be restored in a short time. All merchant ships and cargo ships were blocked at the port and could not dock.

The news spread thousands of miles, and the merchants in the southern states jumped their feet anxiously when they heard about it.

There are even those who rely on their identities, and they force the Jiangzhou prefect to give a happy word.

Cao Shuang, the magistrate of Jiangzhou, had no idea. Seeing this, he sneaked out from the back door of the magistrate's yamen, and went to Zhang Da, the commander of the Jiangzhou navy, for advice.

Zhang Da only gave him one sentence: "Punish according to law."

"But the Fan family..."

Zhang Da closed his eyes and stopped talking.

On the other hand, the army surnamed Wu kindly reminded: "Master Cao, this matter is too big, and none of us can handle it. If we push out a Fan family to fight the thunder, no matter it is the magistrate's yamen or the Gao family, I think they will all be happy to see it succeed." .”

Cao Shuang was also dizzy for a while, but seeing Zhang Da's relaxed face now, he thought about it.The Fan family has been too popular in the past few years, and they monopolize Jiangzhou's water transport, and they have long been looked down upon by many people.If it wasn't for the Gao family's face, it wouldn't be Fan's turn to jump around.

Looking at Master Zhang's intentions now, the Gao family must not be able to accommodate the Fan family.

After Cao Shuang figured it out, he hurriedly resigned.The Fufengkou Wharf is particularly important, and it must be repaired as soon as possible. Otherwise, once the ships stuck at the wharf are about to make trouble, it will be enough.

After thinking about it, he frowned severely.This Fan's family went too far, causing trouble for him.Let's see if he doesn't peel off a layer of skin.

After Cao Shuang left, Zhang Da slowly opened his eyes: "What's going on at the pier?"

"Liu Canjun and the people he brought didn't survive, but the woman ran away. My lord, I'm afraid the woman will not let this matter go."

Zhang Da shook his head: "Heh, the pier was cleaned up by the Fan family, and the time was set by that woman, and we didn't interfere. Don't forget, the warship was made by our Jiangzhou navy. After this encounter, we didn't get anything. Not to mention, the ship was also destroyed, and we lost a lot. This is the cooperation between Jiangzhou Navy and Shengyuantang. Now that it has been destroyed, there is such a big commotion. Even if she settles the score, she can't. on our heads."

Wu Canjun cupped his hands: "Your Excellency is wise."

"Look carefully at the pier. As for the cargo ships blocked at the pier, ask Cao Shuang to deal with it by himself. If necessary, you can use force to suppress it."

Zhang Da stood up, picked up the enamel jar beside him, squeezed some fish food and threw it into the water, a group of red carps crowded together to grab the food in an instant.

"Anyway, the south, don't mess around!"

Zhang Da looked at the surface of the water for a while, not sure if he was talking to Wu Canjun or talking to himself.
