Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 109 Aunt Visits, Li Zhao Visits (4)
"what?"

Old Mrs. Meng was taken aback for a moment, but before he could react, the old butler behind him reminded him in a low voice, "Old Mrs., when the aunt returned home, she brought relatives from her natal family, and among them were the two siblings from the fourth room of the Ji family."

Only then did Old Master Meng regain his composure, gently twirling his beard with one hand, nodded solemnly and said: "Yes, there is such a person, I don't know why the Elder Master is looking for him?"

After all, the Ji family is his in-laws. Although it is now in decline, if any accident happens to the Ji family in his house, people outside will point and poke him in the back.

So no matter what Li Zhao is looking for Ji Chongyu at the moment, old Mrs. Meng has to put on a righteous and awe-inspiring gesture, showing his upright and upright qualities as an official doctor.

"Hahaha!"

Li Zhao patted old man Meng's shoulders indifferently, and he shrugged half of his shoulders with great force. Old man Meng's expression changed, but he endured the pain, only the corners of his eyebrows twitched, and his whole face swelled up. It's purple, and it looks a little funny.

"Your Majesty Meng doesn't have to look like this. I met the fourth young master of the Ji family in Lingyin Temple back then, and I felt very speculative. Now that I haven't seen him for a few years, I learned that he has returned to Shangjing. I think he is an old friend. , naturally I want to come to see you."

When Li Zhao said this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but they couldn't help whispering.

Everyone had different opinions on the matter of Ji's family back then, but some people still knew the inside story. At that time, Mrs. Ji just mentioned the matter of the throne reserve to the emperor. Hearing that it also involved the King of Lingnan, the emperor was furious, so he dismissed his official position.

Then, if it was not an unintentional act by the old lady Ji back then, but throwing stones for the King of Lingnan to ask the way and sound out the emperor's tone, then now that the son of the King of Lingnan is making good friends with the descendants of the Ji family who have declined, such a relationship will be even more thought-provoking.

Old Master Meng suppressed the astonishment in his heart, unconsciously moved the shoulder that was pressed by Li Zhao, and the corner of his mouth twitched, "I don't know that the fourth young master of the Ji family is actually on good terms with the eldest son, this is really..."

At that time, that was three years ago, when Ji Chongyu was only a five-year-old boy, Li Zhao dared to boast that he had a good relationship with him, isn't that just empty talk?

Today's Ji Chongyu is only eight years old, but Li Zhao is seventeen. Can such an age span make friends?What's more, their identities are so different.

Mrs. Meng was deeply skeptical.

"Since Young Master Ji Si is now in the Meng Mansion, please ask Mr. Meng to take me to meet him!"

Li Zhao finally explained his ultimate goal, and while the old man Meng breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help but feel relieved. This Li Zhao met Ji's family in the Meng Mansion. Although he said they were two teenagers, who knew that he would be killed What does the outside world say.

But now it's too late to avoid the taboo, my daughter is clearly married to the Ji family, and now the son-in-law is still working in Zhan Shi's mansion, this cannot be erased no matter what.

The old man Meng sighed, he was not afraid of what Ji Chongyu's eight-year-old boy could do, but only hoped that Li Zhao would not cause any troubles and bring unnecessary troubles to the Meng family.

Thinking about it this way, Mrs. Meng has already called the old housekeeper to send Li Zhao away graciously, and he still needs to allow time to calm down the suspicion and speculation of these colleagues in front of him. This is definitely not an easy job.

The old butler respectfully led Li Zhao to Meng Ling's residence, but when he learned that Ji Chongyu was at his sister's place, the old butler felt a little embarrassed. Wang Shizi was introduced.

Thinking of this moment, the old housekeeper couldn't help turning his eyes to Li Zhao, hoping that he would retreat in spite of the difficulties and not break the taboo, but obviously Li Zhao didn't realize this.

"That's also very good. Anyway, I know their siblings well. The old butler can just take me there."

Li Zhao didn't seem to care, just waved his sleeves grandly, and the wrinkles on the old housekeeper's face immediately turned into a flower, and he forced a smile and said: "Master, the back house is full of female relatives, if you rush in Go, I'm afraid I will offend the girls and wives, look at this..."

"Is that so..."

Li Zhao frowned, rubbing Fang Zheng's jaw with his thumb and index finger, as if thinking.

In fact, he didn't expect to see Ji Chonglian immediately when he came to Meng's Mansion today, and Ji Chongyu's boy was the same. In short, their siblings are connected by the same fate, and if one can run away, the second can't. It doesn't matter if he sees Ji Chongyu first. You can't come back empty-handed.

After that time, he only stayed in Lingyin Temple for one day before returning in a hurry, but what was interesting was that a pair of servants of the Ji family remained in the temple. The place to stay is just that after returning to Beijing, he was delayed until now because of some things.

He also had ulterior motives in choosing Mr. Meng to come before the day of his promotion. All the people in the court were watching the wind direction in the south of Lingnan, who they would form an alliance with, and who they would win over to help them. These were all people's concerns.

Staying in Beijing for the past three years, the impression he gives people is always cynical, a little fierce and a little cruel, no one wants to get involved with him, Li Zhao understands this in his heart.

But the Ji family...it's a little bit special.

And this situation, he only recently found out that Lingnan King's letter mentioned the old scholar Ji who was placed in office, and the reason for this was related to their family.

After all, they owe Ji's family a favor!
Thinking of this, and thinking about the past grievances with Ji Chonglian's sister and brother, Li Zhao already had a heart to write off, but it was easy for their siblings. He still remembered Ji Chonglian's fierceness, and he had to tease them once before he could do anything. Eliminate the hatred in his heart!

What's more, he still can't forget those eyes...the deep and pure black eyes, the eyes colliding in the rain, with a hint of cunning and faint excitement and pride of success, looking at it makes people feel annoyed, wanting to forget, but Remember again and again.

What kind of complicated and entangled emotion is this? Li Zhao didn't think deeply about it. He just aroused a strong interest. Before he found out, he would never give up easily!
"Then find a place for us to meet. It will not offend the family members of your family, and it will be convenient for me to talk to him."

After thinking about it, Li Zhao said, the old housekeeper felt relieved immediately, turned into the second gate, took Li Zhao to a nearby pavilion, and gave him subtle and careful instructions for a while, before he went to ask someone to invite Ji Chongyu went.

As soon as the old housekeeper walked away, Li Zhao's figure flickered, and he disappeared.

If you just invite him like this, Ji Chongyu knows that he will definitely pretend to be sick and not come out. His purpose is only for their siblings. It doesn't matter how they meet, but since he is here today, he will definitely meet. He will definitely not It will be a waste of time.
