Chapter 145 Action
Li Lijun's silent gaze made Li Shen feel guilty.
He didn't know if his niece believed what he said. This child has always been smart, smarter than adults, and might be able to detect the flaws in his inconsistent words. But so what? Of course he wants to send Li Lijun to Saga Mountain
Although he went to settle down in other industries, he could not turn a blind eye to the hidden dangers in Xinzhuangzi.
He has already made an agreement with the abbot of Qingliang Temple. After sending his little niece to his hometown, he will return to Qingliang Temple tomorrow to meet the monks and go to Zhuangzi to slay the demons together. He must take care of all these troublesome matters.
, so that he could return to Beijing to return his life to his grandfather and prove that he had lived up to his old man's expectations and that he had taken good care of his little niece along the way.
Therefore, Li Shen faced Li Lijun's gaze and continued to maintain his original expression, as if he didn't feel guilty at all: "How is it? If you can't think of anything for me to do for a while, you can ask me to do it along the way.
How about thinking about it in the car?"
Li Lijun smiled at him and responded obediently: "Okay."
Of course she could see something strange about Li Shen, and she could vaguely guess that he had probably made an appointment with the monks from Qingliang Temple to act together. She just didn't know whether it would be tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and he would go to Liujiazhuang to collect the monster. She was now
It was impossible to convince him to take her with him, so just let him go. Anyway, she had planned to deal with the mouse alone. She pretended to be obedient and let Li Shen do what he wanted.
If she takes action, she won't have to work hard to convince him.
Li Shen sent her to Saga Mountain. At least today, it is impossible to be separated from her. Then there is a high probability that she will meet up with the people from Qingliang Temple tomorrow. So many people are going to Liujiazhuang together, if not everyone is riding a horse.
, it will probably take a whole day of work, right? When we arrive at Liujiazhuang, we can’t see anything at night, so how can we find monsters and collect them? Li Lijun guessed that they would at most just search around with torches tomorrow night, which would not be a show.
If she can get rid of the mouse tonight, there will be no danger even if Li Shen only takes his men to Liujiazhuang, not to mention the monks from Qingliang Temple are there!
Li Lijun made up her mind and got on the carriage obediently. Accompanied by Li Shen, she went straight to Saga Mountain.
The journey went smoothly. Although before she left Mount Saga, the local area had been hit by heavy rain for several days. Now, except for some yellow mud pits left by waterlogging on both sides of the road, there were almost no traces of the heavy rain. The road was covered with water.
It was leveled again, and the horse and cart encountered no setbacks on the way. At noon, they arrived at their destination.
The general manager of the villa came up to him with a flattering smile on his face, but his eyes showed a bit of confusion. He already knew the news about the change of ownership of the villa. Although the fourth lady of the Sui Dynasty was also a familiar face, her temperament
It's easy to serve him, but he is from Prince Zou's house after all. The Fourth Lady will always have the help she is used to, so she doesn't need him to do anything, right? So what will he do in the future?
If he is given to the Fourth Lady of the Sui Palace by Prince Zou's Palace, the position of the general manager may not be preserved. What else can he do when he is old and has been pampered for many years? Where will his wife and children go?
If he is taken back to Prince Zou's Mansion, he will also lose his position as the general manager of other industries. There are already people in charge of all the properties in Prince Zou's Mansion, so what can he do when he goes back? Is he going to be a small manager again?
, please the big stewards every day, or...can't even get a job as a junior steward?
With his mind in a mess, the manager of the property welcomed the two noble young masters into the property based on instinct, served them tea, and asked his wife to take Aunt Cui and the others to place the new owner's luggage.
Li Shen sat down and rested for a while. After drinking tea, he finally had the energy to deal with Prince Zou's manpower in the other industry, so he gave the manager a reassurance: "Let the people in the other industry handle the handover with the people under the Fourth Lady."
.When the fourth lady has completely settled down, she will return to Chang'an Palace before the first day of next month to report. You can bring a few smart people with flexible legs and strong legs to follow me. I have a new village, which is by the Jing River.
, I haven’t seen it yet, and I don’t know what kind of mess it is there. You go over and take care of it for me, and then you can stay there and be the head of the village."
Although he was not working for the heir of Prince Zou's palace, the manager of the villa was already very pleasantly surprised. He quickly kowtowed to Li Shen to thank him, and at Li Shen's urging, he quickly selected someone.
Seeing that Li Shen was eager to leave immediately, Li Lijun had no choice but to dissuade him: "Uncle Shen, don't be anxious, we just arrived in Bieye, you want to stay for one night, and let me do my best as a landlord, right?"
Also, I lived here when I was a child. When I came here a few days ago, I had to stay in the main courtyard because of heavy rain for days. I don’t know much about other places in the villa. Why don’t you take me around?
Come on, let me know what great-uncle has built over the years?"
This was a very reasonable request. Li Shen could not refuse, so he had to suppress his inner impulse and agreed to Li Lijun with a smile.
Lunch was prepared in advance by the general manager of the villa, which mainly consisted of various fungi and dried vegetables produced in the mountains. It tasted pretty good. Li Lijun took a lunch break and delayed half the afternoon. When he took Li Shen to visit the villa, he said
He was invited to taste the excellent craftsmanship of his maid for dinner, so Li Shen had no choice but to leave early.
It was rest time in the evening. Li Shen actually had his own courtyard in the villa, which was hundreds of meters away from the main courtyard where Li Lijun lived, and separated by half a small lake. Li Lijun looked at the lights in his room from a distance
If it was put out early, we knew that he must be planning to get up early tomorrow and set off early to meet the monks at Qingliang Temple.
She was not frightened either. The newly made little black crane had been released after dark and was currently on its way to Liujiazhuang. She turned around and sent the two nuns away, and told Mrs. Shao that she was a little tired from the journey today.
, if she wants to rest early, she can dispel the other party's suspicion. After closing the door of the room, she only needs to hold on to a second red.
Er Hong now obeys her words. Although she is also worried about the safety of the little lady, Li Lijun has repeatedly said that she has learned a lot of skills and can deal with a little mouse. Er Hong will never doubt her words.
Yes, Li Lijun has told Er Hong that she has used "magical means" to detect the problem. The person causing trouble in Liujiazhuang is a mouse. Apart from growing bigger and smaller, it has no special ability. It only dares to sneak around and eat at night.
When the farmer's livestock makes the slightest movement, it will get scared and run away.
Li Lijun is not lying. This is all the information she has obtained through Xiao Heihe. She just doesn't know whether the mouse will only become bigger or smaller. But this is the only way to appease Erhong's heart.
Persuasiveness.
Erhong agreed to cover up for Li Lijun and would wait until tomorrow to tell Aunt Cui and Lady Shao what she had done tonight.
Li Lijun put on a black hooded cloak, put on various concealment and protection charms, put on light and waterproof leather boots, held a small target mirror in her left hand, and a stainless steel sword in her right hand.
