Chapter 12 Disappointed Li Xiuning(1/2)

When he returned to the Duke's Mansion at noon, Ma Sanbao was about to go out.

When I saw Yang Mo, I was happy: "Son-in-law, the lady is asking me to look for you."

"Oh, is that right? I happened to have something to look for the lady..." Yang Mo paused, realizing that he had said the wrong thing: "Look for Miss Li."

Ma Sanbao frowned, why did he still get married?

The two entered the mansion and came to the main hall. Li Xiuning sat at the table in a pretty good manner.

Seeing Yang Mo come in, he told Chunmei to have dinner.

Although it was noon at this time, Li Xiuning ate lunch early when he was at home, so it was past meal time.

Seeing Li Xiuning waiting for him to come back for dinner, Yang Mo felt warm.

In his previous life, he had many wishes that were small but unrealized, such as someone who cooked food at home and waited for him to come back.

Yang Mo felt that the rice today was particularly sweet, and he felt that what he had done these days was not in vain.

Although Li Xiuning is still polite to him.

"Young Master Yang..."

"Miss Li..."

The food was almost the same. Yang Mo put down the bowls and chopsticks and was about to speak, but Li Xiuning also spoke.

The two looked at each other, and Yang Mo smiled and said, "Girl talk first."

"The day after tomorrow, the censor will return to Chang'an. I want to invite him to come to the mansion for a lecture tomorrow."

Invite Junchen to come to the mansion?

Is the Hongmen Banquet?

It looks like Li Xiuning doesn't look like this, and Li Xiuning is not like this either.

"Okay..." Yang Mo nodded: "It's just that I can't drink..."

"Young Master is here to accompany you. This time the censor came to Taiyuan, and it was for the young master in the open.

Li Xiuning knew that Yang Mo could not drink alcohol—the document recorded in Yang Mo’s life was very detailed.

"Young Master just now has something to tell me?"

"Yeah, there are."

Yang Mo put down the bowls and chopsticks, wiped his hands, took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it on.

This records Lai Junchen's whereabouts in the market in recent days, who he has talked to, and what he has asked about it.

Li Xiuning took it and frowned slightly. Yang Mo's word is really difficult to enter the elegant place.

But after looking at the above content, my eyebrows became even tighter.

"This is?"

Ma Sanbao stood aside and became curious about the paper, but due to the rules, he could not lean over to see it, so he could only glance at it with his eyes slanted.

"Lai Junchen has been wandering around the market in the past few afternoons. I happened to see it, so I explored it."

Yang Mo's voice was dull, as if he was talking about an extremely ordinary thing: "I don't know what he asked about these things, just think it's strange."

Li Xiuning subconsciously umbrellad. The content recorded on Yang Mo's paper is very detailed. Although it looks like a diary, you can understand it immediately after reading it.

Seeing that his lady's face was wrong, Ma Sanbao heard that he had something to do with Lai Junchen and was a little nervous: "Miss..."

Li Xiuning handed him the paper, then took a sip of water to calm his mind.

What did Lai Junchen want to do when he spys on these things?

Charcoal, leather and mulberry wood are all the supplies needed to build weapons.

Did Lai Junchen want to make sure that we do not have the intention of rebellion by the price of these things?

It shouldn't be. My brother's letter clearly stated that someone had secretly reported our preparations in Taiyuan to King Qing.

With King Qing, it is already confirmed that Taiyuan was prepared to raise an army.

Shouldn’t Lai Junchen come to collect evidence? Why do you seem to be sure of this?

So what if it is confirmed? It will be useless without evidence.

"Damn it, this dog official didn't expect that there were still many intestines!"

Seeing the content on the paper, Ma Sanbao also realized the danger and was furious, as if he was about to kill someone: "Miss, I'll do him now!"

After saying that, I had to go out with my knife.

"No!"

Li Xiuning's voice was a little low and looked at Ma Sanbao: "Even if he knows this, it's nothing. These are not evidence."

"If he was killed, wouldn't he tell King Qing that he had our evidence? If Lai Junchen died in Taiyuan, his father and brother would have been in the court for many days, he would have failed."

He scolded Ma Sanbao, but Li Xiuning turned to look at Yang Mo who was still extremely calm.

The eyes were a little complicated, and the man in front of him would notice these things.

I originally thought he was just braiding shoes in the market...

If you can take the initiative to pay attention to Lai Junchen, you will naturally have the Li family in your heart.

"Mr. Yang, what do you think we should deal with this Lai Junchen?"

After a moment of movement, Li Xiuning wanted to hear his opinion.

After asking, I smiled bitterly again.

Although Yang Mo is the son of the royal family, his family has fallen into decline after all, and he is no different from the poor people since childhood.

If he talks about making shoes for small business, he would be better than others.

After all, there is no idea about these major events in the imperial court, and it is already unexpected to be able to notice these clues.

But even though I thought so in my mind, I had a faint expectation in my heart.

Maybe this man will have some insights that can help him now.

If it were Li Xiuning three months ago, she would definitely not have such an idea, even if it was a little bit, it would be impossible.

But in the past three months, she supported the Duke's Mansion alone.

The father and brother were in the capital, and Taiyuan was their last reliance, so it was not an exaggeration to be extremely cautious.

The heavy burden on her, a woman, was a little tired after all.

It is good to have a support - even if there is no support, there is someone who can discuss things together.

Yang Mo shook his head: "I have no idea about these things. If I can help the girl, it is naturally the best. If I can't help, I don't want to cause trouble for the girl."

But I smiled bitterly in my heart. What else can I say?

Just kill Lai Junchen.

If I had my test tonight, I could confirm that Lai Junchen was the cruel official he knew who was extremely good at false accusations, killing him was the best solution.

But these words cannot be said to Li Xiuning.

After all, what she said just now makes sense from her perspective. Killing him directly in Taiyuan will cause the Li family and son in the court to fall into a passive position.

Yang Mo didn't know what was going on in Chang'an City now, but Li Xiuning should know.

The emperor, the royal family, and all civil and military officials were all destroyed, so I guess they were not much better.

This is an excellent opportunity for the Li family and his son.

But if Lai Junchen died in Taiyuan, it would be bad if he moved his whole body and affected the Li family's father and son.

Yang Mo was able to think from Li Xiuning's perspective, but even though he was Li Xiuning, his decision remained unchanged: Kill Lai Junchen.

The reason is very simple: Yang Mo knew better than everyone that if Lai Junchen was really a cruel official in his previous life, once he returned to Chang'an, there would be no difference between him and taking evidence of the Li family's rebellion back.

That was someone who was extremely shocked by false accusations in the history of his previous life.

When Di Renjie was interrogated by him, he could only plead guilty directly when facing false accusations and did not dare to have the slightest sense of justification.

Even if Li Shimin is the emperor of the ages, he is always just a minister now.

If you don’t sit in that position, or even have military power, you can’t use it even if you have the magical power of heaven.

Even if his ability can beat Lai Junchen, Yang Mo believed that it must be based on the premise of understanding Lai Junchen's true abilities.

But Li Xiuning didn't know Lai Junchen's ability, nor did the Li family's father and son know.

Therefore, they would never risk killing Lai Junchen just because he collected this kind of thing.

Yang Mo knew that this little thing was enough to make Junchen bloody storm.

And there is Chang Liang who knows very well about Taiyuan...

Yang Mo could predict that if Lai Junchen brought Chang Liang back to Chang'an, he would definitely teach him how to falsely accuse the Li family.

Those messages of catching up on the wind, plus Chang Liang's false accusations, and Lai Junchen's other methods.
To be continued...
