Chapter 274 Mystery

Three days later, Li Xia sent someone to Xuzhou to pick up Li Xiling's wife and children. Before letting them see Li Xiling, he met them first.

Li Xiling's wife, Mrs. Du, was not in her forties, and looked dignified and virtuous; her son, Li Zhaocheng, was 19 years old at the time, and looked a little frail. Although he was a man, he gave people a sense of "good looks".

Li Xia felt that Li Zhao didn't grow up like Li Xiling, his appearance was a bit too soft, and instead he lacked Li Xiling's sense of free and easy.

But after exchanging a few words, the mother and son responded decently, and what Li Xiling said was the same as what Li Xiling said, that Li Xiling used to be a curtain in Uncle Xie Fang's mansion, and then returned to Sichuan and Sichuan, and went to Hao Xiuyang to learn Taoism in order to escape corvee. , taxation, the family plans to settle down in Shunan in the future.

Seeing that they couldn't ask too many questions, Li Xia arranged a house near the workshop for Li Xiling's family.

This house is not in the city, but on the east bank of the Fujiang River, near the Qingfu military barracks, due to the large number of military personnel and laborers, a large workshop has been formed, and life is considered convenient.

After the family settled down, Mrs. Du's expression became lively when she saw Li Xiling. She was no longer as stiff as she was along the way, and her temperament was quite different.

"..."

"You didn't recognize him?"

"No, I felt strange when I came out of Xuzhou." Du said: "According to what the officials said, if you call my surname 'Du', it means that you are using the identity of the staff of the Xie Mansion. I was thinking about the officials along the way." Why is this so, I dare not be careless; when I arrived at the Qingfu, I felt even more strange before seeing the officials..."

"Then?"

"When I saw Mr. Xiao Lang, I was pleasantly surprised at the first glance. But...it's not like, it feels like a completely different person except for his appearance. I also pretend that the wall has ears, so he doesn't dare to recognize each other. But wait... ..."

Li Xiling said: "When you open your mouth, it makes people think it's not him?"

Du Shi bowed his head and said nothing, with worry and doubt in his eyes, he asked, "What do the officials think?"

"I wanted to see if you recognized him, but even you could feel it, so it's not my illusion."

Li Xiling said again: "He is very smart, and he has insight into every detail. I just showed some eyes when I saw him, and he kept probing. I had to change my identity and lie down to find out first."

"The officials didn't ask him?"

Li Xiling said indifferently: "If it's not my son, what's the use of asking? Let him find an excuse to trick me?"

~~
"I heard that Li Feiyu has an extra staff member."

"Yes, this person behaves a little differently. Li Xianwei, Han Jingzhi and his son usually do things as they please, and don't care much about the court's laws. This Li Xiling is well versed in this way, and people can't find fault."

Having said this, Jiang Quan took several official documents and handed them in front of Fang Yankai, saying: "Just looking at this trivial matter, you can tell that County Lieutenant Li wants to go to Dali. He has given many reasons, but he doesn't even put on a show Ken. On the contrary, after Li Xiling came, he filled up the documents."

Fang Yankai took it and looked at it, and saw that there was actually a letter from a Dali survivor requesting to send an envoy to enter the country. He looked at it for a long time, but he couldn't see any trace of forgery.

No trace of forgery could be seen, but he could tell that Li Xiling was familiar with the officialdom, which was precisely what Li Xia and the Han family were not good at.

Presumably when Li Xia is away, there is such a person sitting in Qingfu County to ensure the stability of the situation...

"He really found such an aide." Fang Yankai murmured, "How many monsters and monsters are here in a small frontier county?"

Because of Han Chengxu's father and son's identities as survivors of the Jin Kingdom, Fang Yankai never put them together with himself to compare their talents.

But Li Xiling was different. He was obviously a more powerful person in the officialdom, but he was willing to be Li Xia's assistant.

This made Fang Yankai suddenly feel that the pride in his heart was a little ridiculous...

into the night.

The woman in black walked slowly through the alley again, towards the back door of the county government office.

Beside the door, a door yawned and turned its head.

Asha was about to raise her hand, but she heard him say something.

"I... I'll go... ask the county lieutenant to come out, he told you, you...you come again, I will ask him to come out... wait a moment... can you understand?"

As Menzi said, he ran towards the yard, his footsteps flustered.

Asha didn't react too much, but slowly lowered her hand.

The lantern under the eaves suddenly went out, and the atmosphere became weird.

After a while, Li Xia came out, stood in the alley and glanced left and right, but Asha was nowhere to be seen.

There was a chilly wind blowing on his neck, he turned around abruptly, only to see the woman standing behind him.

This scene was a bit scary, but Li Xia was not afraid, and said: "You are quite flexible, it seems that Xiong Chun didn't catch you?"

"Did you see him in the underworld?" Asha asked to himself.

"Let's talk outside here." Li Xia also said to himself, "I won't invite you in, it will scare the magistrate Jiang's family."

Ashahim murmured: "You came from Wangchuan... have you seen him?"

"People say you're crazy, but I think you're still sane, and you know how to play tricks in the middle of the night."

"Have you seen him? When will he be back?"

Asha didn't want to chat with him, and still only had quiet questions.

"Okay." Li Xia said, "I have met Qu Liang, but he has already forgotten about you."

"You're talking nonsense!" Asha yelled suddenly, "You don't want to lie to me!"

"What did I lie to you for? I saw Po Meng held him down and fed him Po Meng soup. He doesn't remember you, not at all."

"No, you lied to me...you lied to me..."

"I didn't lie to you. No one can forget the past life after death, and so is Qu Liang."

"Your soul has already told me, you haven't forgotten..."

Li Xia said solemnly: "Because I am different, I was born as King Ming, watching the chaos in the world, and saving the common people..."

Asha shook her head, ignored Li Xia, turned and left.

"Qu Liang didn't forget me, he won't."

She said something to herself, and then hummed some tune softly.

Li Xia followed, walked side by side with her, looked down at her veil, and asked in a questioning tone, "I don't look like it?"

He is very serious, as if he is learning how to pretend to be a ghost.

Asha didn't answer, she sang an unknown ancient Miao song softly, like a spell, a little creepy.

Li Xia said sincerely, "I'm really reborn, aren't you curious?"

"Fake...he won't forget me..."

"Really, I died once..."

A Shahim seemed a little annoyed, and suddenly waved his sleeves, and a cloud of smoke spilled out, covering Li Xia's face.

She didn't even look at Li Xia, and continued walking forward.

The scene in the memory is like that day in the Miao Village, when Akui surrounded Li Xia and made a fuss.

She and Qu Liang were like that when they were young.

"You were given a love gu by me, and you are never allowed to leave the deep mountain again."

"Okay." Qu Liang smiled slightly, with doting eyes and a peaceful face.

……

"Hello." The boy behind him shouted again, interrupting Asha's memory.

She is not happy.

Li Xia is the person she has met most like Qu Liang in the past ten years.But it doesn't look like that at all, his mind is full of secular power, and he doesn't have Qu Liang's non-human temperament at all.

She couldn't describe this feeling, but she knew...he was a liar who pretended to be a ghost.

"I'm really, reborn and living..."

Asha still ignored it.

At first, she felt Li Xia's mystery. He had secrets and fears, and she couldn't help but want to reveal them.She longed to uncover the secrets of Yin and Yang worlds.

But now, Li Xia's sense of mystery was gone.

She just thought he was noisy and just wanted to go away immediately.

Li Xia suddenly caught up with the first two steps and asked, "Want to find Qu Liang? I can help you..."
