Chapter 247
After a quick lunch, Li Yunqing and Bei Yejun headed towards the City Lord's Mansion.

It is said that the owner of the Guandu city is called Zheng Yide, and he is a very eccentric person. He has always been at odds with the general of Guandu and often clashed. After the general passed away, he did not act as a domineering man in Guandu, but disappeared. up.

"Shhh-"

The bleak wind of winter hits.

Bei Yejun hugged Li Yunqing and landed on the roof of the City Lord's Mansion. It can be seen that the City Lord's Mansion is only half the size of the General's Mansion, and the courtyards are very quiet and simple.

There are no guards outside the door, and there are not many people inside.

I can vaguely see maids passing by occasionally, and two servants cleaning fallen leaves in the yard.

There are not many flowers and plants in the yard, but there are many old sycamore trees. When winter comes, the leaves of the sycamore trees are withered and yellow, and they are scattered all over the ground. Two servants in simple clothes are cleaning, and the rustling voice has a special charm. .

Li Yunqing narrowed her eyes slightly: "Well, this place is not bad."

Bei Yejun glanced at the mansion lazily and casually. Hearing Li Yunqing's praise here, he felt a little sour in his heart, but said casually on his face: "It's not bad, it's far worse than my palace."

"Yes, yes." The corners of Li Yunqing's mouth twitched slightly, and she walked towards the other side, "At this time, Zheng Yide should be in the study."

She walked steadily on the roof step by step, which reminded Bei Yejun that she used to be very afraid of heights when she first got on the roof and was cautious, but now she can walk so steadily.

She was wearing a pale pink dress fluttering with the wind, walking among the bleak and drifting sycamore trees, her innate peaceful and far-reaching atmosphere seemed like a person who could only walk out of a painting.

Li Yunqing raised her eyes and glanced lightly at the building in front of her, and caught a glimpse of a quiet attic. She thought that it might be a bookstore, so she raised her hand and said in a low voice, "Bei Yejun, let's go go there."

Bei Yejun took her and jumped up to the attic, and with another jump, he reached the balcony on the second floor.

Li Yunqing walked in from the balcony, the door was not closed, and there was still a faint smell of sandalwood, she pushed the door open, she was slightly taken aback.

This turned out to be a place similar to an ancestral hall, and the only spiritual tablet placed on the highest place surprised Li Yunqing the most.

On the spirit tablet, the name of Chang Yuanliang, the former great general of Guandu, was impressively engraved—the tomb of his best friend Chang Yuanliang!

Afterwards, Bei Yejun also stepped in, saw the spirit tablet, and slightly raised his eyebrows: "I didn't expect that the two of them were rumored to be at odds, but they were close friends."

Li Yunqing narrowed her eyes and walked in gently.

This place used to be a study room, but later the furnishings were emptied, leaving only such a countertop, where spirit tablets and incense burners were placed.

In the whole room, there is nothing else but these, and the emptiness is a bit palpitating.

The sandalwood in front of the spirit tablet should have just been ignited and burned out a little bit. The table was very clean, and there were faint traces of water, which had just been wiped.

Xin Dao said that this should be the result of Zheng Yide often coming to pay respects and ordering his servants to clean it every day.

That being said, they were really close friends.

Speaking of which, during Chang Yuanliang's lifetime, the two fought like a raging fire, and after Chang Yuanliang passed away, Zheng Yide disappeared, she should have expected it a long time ago.

They must have been a lovely pair of friends.

"who are you?!"

A startled female voice sounded from the door.

Li Yunqing looked back, just in time to see the maid standing at the door.The servant girl was slightly startled by the looks of the two of them, she had never seen such a good-looking person before, she froze for a moment, then frowned and said, "Who are you and how did you get in here?"

Before Li Yunqing could answer, he heard the sound of footsteps patting on the pagoda downstairs. Sure enough, just as Li Yunqing expected, Zheng Yide had just come to worship, so he was not far downstairs.

Zheng Yide is a man in his 40s, wearing a dark robe, unlike the generals he has seen a lot recently, he looks like a scholar, with graying hair and a haggard face.

The first thing Zheng Yide saw was not Li Yunqing, nor Bei Yejun, but the only spiritual card in this room.

After making sure that the spirit card was intact with a nervous expression, he cast his displeased eyes on the two of them, and asked seriously: "The two of you sneaked into Zheng's house quietly to see the spirit card of your best friend." Is it?"

The two who were captured didn't feel any embarrassment at all. Li Yunqing still smiled as calmly as water, and her clear and ethereal voice made people feel comfortable physically and mentally: "I'm sorry to disturb you and your best friend, but we are here to visit you."

Zheng Yide frowned slightly, where would someone visit like this, sneak in quietly, it would only be a thief.

But the visitor is a guest, and these two don't look like ordinary people, Zheng Yide still said: "Then please go downstairs to talk."

"Thank you." Li Yunqing smiled slightly, turned her head and told Bei Yejun to follow.

Normally, under such circumstances, Bei Yejun is the background board, he does not do anything and does not speak, but the other party will always be most afraid of him.

He followed Zheng Yide down the stairs and came to the study on the first floor.

Sure enough, as Li Yunqing guessed, this attic is indeed a study, but the second floor has been transformed into a place where Chang Yuanliang's spirit seat is placed.

"Please sit down and watch tea." Zheng Yide said politely, and then the three sat down together.

Just now the servant girl came in and poured tea for them. When pouring the tea, she almost spilled the tea because she took a few extra glances at their faces.

Then the servant girl went out, Zheng Yide looked at the two people in front of him carefully, and said: "I don't know why you two came to the humble house?"

Li Yunqing was not in a hurry, she slowly picked up the tea in front of her, sniffed it slightly, narrowed her clear eyes, and said softly: "This tea is Jade Fox Needle, it is produced in Jiangdu, which is known as a paradise on earth. Tea is difficult to cultivate, but few people drink it."

As she spoke, she gently put down the teacup again, and the pale yellow tea rippled slightly in the white porcelain teacup.

Zheng Yide was slightly shocked, then closed his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect the girl to know tea so well. Indeed, jade fox needles are rare and expensive, but the taste is not satisfactory. I love drinking it because my best friend liked it very much during his lifetime. "

Hearing what they said, Bei Yejun also picked up the tea, smelled it, and then frowned.

Why didn't he smell anything special?
Besides, Xiao Qing'er rarely drinks tea, so she probably isn't a tea lover, probably because of her uncle.

Li Yunqing chuckled: "Then your best friend's preferences are really different from ordinary people."

"Where?" Zheng Yide responded in a low voice.

In fact, that old fellow Chang Yuanliang didn't know anything about tea. Jade Fox Needle was the worst tea he had ever tasted, but he said he liked it, and he could only drink this kind of tea in the future.

The corners of Zheng Yide's lips curved bitterly, and he shook his head helplessly, that old guy loves to see that he is uncomfortable.

Li Yunqing looked at Zheng Yide indifferently, and in a few words, she was sure that this person should not become their enemy.

"Then there are rumors outside that you are at odds with General Chang Yuanliang, so there is nothing wrong with it."

Zheng Yide nodded slightly. The way he got along with that old guy has always been like this. If he didn't know martial arts, then the two of them would definitely fight when they met.

Li Yunqing lowered her eyebrows and smiled slightly, with a dark light in her eyes, and said faintly: "Then, will you side with Cui Tingyu, who is now taking over the position of General Chang Yuanliang, or will you side with Taiwei Lin Qilin?" .”

As soon as these words came out, it was like a stone stirring up a thousand waves.

Zheng Yide raised his eyes in shock, then frowned deeply: "Who are you?"

Facing Zheng Yide's jealousy, Li Yunqing's expression did not change, and she answered irrelevant questions: "I think you also know that now they are like fire and water, and you will definitely be involved."

Zheng Yide stared at Li Yunqing for a long while, then chuckled lightly as if mocking himself, and said in a deep voice, "I'm useless as the city lord of Guandu anyway."

"You mean that you are going to stay out of it." Li Yunqing smiled.

Zheng Yide looked at the girl with low brows and a slight smile in front of her. She was originally an upright girl, and she should be an innocent grade, but she didn't expect that when she opened her mouth, she would be so scheming and penetrating.

Zheng Yide lowered his eyes and said in a deep voice: "I don't know which side you two are from, but I only care about the safety of the people in Guandu City. Whoever stirs up trouble first and endangers the people, I will try my best to help the other person." .”

Although his voice was deep and deep, the strength in it was not light, and it even carried full threats.

Li Yunqing was quite satisfied with this answer, and said with a slight smile, "You can rest assured about this, Lin Qi is definitely the one who will do it first."

Zheng Yide looked at the girl in front of him, and was very surprised by her determined tone, but since she said so, she must be from Cui Tingyu's side.

Li Yunqing's clear eyes glowed with a captivating brilliance: "You must also know that Cui Tingyu was an upright person before, and Lin Qi...you must also know it very well."

Zheng Yide didn't understand: "Although Cui Tingyu is different from the past, he is still no match for Taiwei Lin. What is it that will make Taiwei Lin play the biggest hole card."

In the past, Lin Qi didn't have to come here in person, he could just find an opportunity to get rid of Cui Tingyu.But now he has come all the way to Guandu, and from what he has heard, Lin Qi's many schemes have been in vain, which means...

I'm afraid it has something to do with the dazzling young girl in front of him.

And now that the girl came to look for him, he also guessed that Lin Qi probably already had a plan to attack the city.

It's really unusual for this girl to make Lin Qi make such a bad move.

"Because of what, you will know in the future, you just need to remember that we will not do any harm to any common people in Daqin." Li Yunqing smiled, and she was magnificent, "But if someone else framed me, I hope you can wipe it off." Bright eyes."

"I hope so." Zheng Yide slightly relaxed his frowning eyebrows.
