The family entered the yard talking and laughing, and it didn't seem out of place for Xi Rong and Xi Rui to follow them for dinner.
Even the third prince stayed to eat for free, using the excuse of working here.
Only Xiao Yuanshi was ignored, feeling extremely awkward.
Xiao Yuanshi stood at the door, watching the group of people enter and disappear. In addition to being angry, he also felt more panicked and confused.
He always thought that as long as he turned around, Kong Yuelan would be happy to reconcile with him.
Now he realized that he was overthinking.
Before this, he also thought that King Yi wanted to marry Kong Yuelan as his queen because of Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo.
But now it’s not certain. Which prince would go and help a woman in the kitchen?
Even if he was a farmer, he would never do such a thing.
Even if King Yi wanted to win over Xiao Hanzheng and his wife, he didn't have to lower himself to this extent.
Then he felt pain on his face and became furious again.
Xiao Hanzheng is a wicked son. He deliberately helps King Yi to deal with his biological father. He is really great.
He didn't have the nerve to follow him in, but went back to the inn with his sleeves swung.
When Xiao Yuanshi saw his own appearance in the mirror, he suddenly felt a little overwhelmed.
No wonder Kong disliked him so much before. Now you can’t even see his former handsome appearance.
That bastard King Yi is such a bad guy!
For the next two days, Xiao Yuanshi did not appear in front of Kong Yuelan and stayed in the inn to reduce the swelling on his face.
The doctor in the small town had limited medical skills. He applied medicine for two days, but only a little bit of the effect was removed. He really didn't want to go out and see anyone.
King Yi secretly left the town and secretly escorted Yelu De, the little prince of the Ge Kingdom, to Beijing.
Xiao Hanzheng suggested that it would be better to send Yelu De to the capital as a hostage.
Although Yelu De seemed to have no presence in the Ge Kingdom before, he was actually the favorite son of the Ge Kingdom emperor, and a general who was born with supernatural powers, bravery, and ferocity.
If Yelu De accidentally escapes back to Ge State, it will be a disaster for the people of Daliang in the border area.
Liang Yulin only heard this information from Xiao Hanzheng, but he trusted it unconditionally.
Nonsense, if he doesn't trust his eldest son, who else can he trust? Because he didn't trust others to escort Yelu De to the capital, Liang Yulin had to do it himself, and temporarily left the matter of the frontier canning workshop to Shi Qingluo to help manage.
On this point, Xiao Yuanshi couldn't do it even if he kissed her continuously.
Three days later, the swelling on Xiao Yuanshi's face subsided, and he appeared again in the yard where Kong Yuelan lived.
Xiao's mother and Xiao Baili followed Shi Qingluo to the canning workshop to help. Both of them were good cooks, so they taught the recruited workers how to cook various canned meats.
Xiao Yuanshi went to the courtyard but didn't see anyone, so he went to the canning workshop.
But he was stopped at the door.
He had no choice but to send someone in to report, but Xiao's mother and Shi Qingluo were too lazy to pay attention to him and ignored him.
Xiao Yuanshi was so angry that he had no choice but to go find Xiao Hanzheng.
He met the third prince in his office, but found that King Yi was missing.
After entering and sitting down, he asked Xiao Hanzheng, "Where is King Yi?"
Xiao Hanzheng lowered his head and worked, "Take people out to collect mutton."
This was their excuse to cover up King Yi's departure.
Xiao Yuanshi was also paying attention to the news outside in the inn. He heard that King Yi had taken people to collect the meat.
But isn’t this taking too long?
According to King Yi's nature of liking to get close to Kong Yuelan, he should have come back by now.
He began to have doubts. "When will you return to Heyang County?"
Xiao Hanzheng still lowered his head and wrote, "It will take some time."
"If you want to inspect Heyang County, go by yourself."
King Yi secretly escorted Yelu De back to the capital, so he could only help here temporarily.
If Yelu De is captured here, the Ge Kingdom will definitely find a way to rescue him.
Fortunately, Heyang County is back on the right track, and Fei Yuzhe can handle many things.
If something cannot be handled, it will be sent to us as quickly as possible.
If it’s urgent, he uses carrier pigeons, so he can also work here.
After hearing what he said, Xiao Yuanshi became even more suspicious.
He suddenly asked: "Where is Yelude who was captured alive by you?"
Xiao Hanzheng, who had been working with his head down, looked up and raised his eyebrows at his scumbag father, "Are you concerned about the little prince of Ge Country?"
Xiao Yuanshi's eyes flickered, "I'm just asking out of curiosity."
Xiao Hanzheng sneered, "I advise you not to ask too much."
"It would be even more inappropriate to ask for information for others."
Xiao Yuanshi's thoughts were exposed, and he smiled awkwardly, "Okay, I won't ask anymore."
He did meet King Jin's men this morning, and the other party wanted him to find out the whereabouts of Yelu De.
Who knew Xiao Hanzheng was so sensitive that he actually discovered it.
However, he was also certain of one thing: King Yi had gone out to collect meat for several days and had not returned, so there must be something wrong.
Yelude shouldn't be here anymore.
When Xiao Hanzheng saw the look on his scumbag father's face, he knew that the other party had become suspicious or had guessed it.
But it doesn’t matter. Now King Yi should have safely left the surveillance range of King Jin, the former dynasty and the Ge Kingdom.
Xiao Hanzheng said meaningfully: "Your relationship with King Jin is getting closer and closer."
He has been keeping an eye on his scumbag dad.
Xiao Yuanshi also understood that Xiao Hanzheng knew that he had met with King Jin's people in the morning.
This son's methods are becoming more and more powerful, and his fear of him is getting deeper and deeper.
He pretended to be helpless and sighed, "You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child. I also want the treasure map, so I can only pretend to surrender to King Jin."
Xiao Hanzheng looked at him with a half-smile and said, "I'm afraid it's not just the treasure map, but also the fifty thousand taels."
What he didn't know was that Prince Jin used the fifty thousand taels that Ge Chunru had received to coerce and bribe his scumbag father.
Xiao Yuanshi: “…” Is this son really a fox?
My son sees the truth but doesn't point it out. His straightforward behavior makes him more and more like that bad daughter-in-law. It's so annoying.
He smiled awkwardly again, "I am also taking this opportunity to infiltrate the enemy."
Speaking of it, I really want to strangle Ge Chunru to death. That woman is such a jinx.
Time and again, his plans and deployments to the northern border were disrupted.
He took the fifty thousand taels and gave it to Ge Chunyi, forcing him to be intimidated by Prince Jin's men and have to help them do some things in private.
Now that Xiao Hanzheng had pointed it out, he was actually quite embarrassed and could only make excuses to get away with it.
Xiao Hanzheng was just warning his scumbag father not to interfere in matters that he shouldn't be involved in. "If you say so, then so be it."
Xiao Yuanshi: “…” What do you mean by “counted as”?
However, it is not a good idea to inquire about the news about King Yi and Yelu De, as this son is too sensitive and difficult to deal with.
Alas, he must have been out of his mind to break off the relationship with such a capable son just for Ge Chunru, that unlucky girl.
Otherwise, if they, father and son, join forces, would they still worry about not being able to make a breakthrough in the northern border?
Just then, Xiao Hanzheng's people came in, handed him a letter, and then left quickly.
Xiao Hanzheng tore open the letter and took a look, only to find that it was sent by Zhuo Jun.
She was openly trying to find out about Yelu De, meaning that people from the previous dynasty asked her to ask, and these people were very concerned about Yelu De.
Xiao Hanzheng raised a playful smile and suddenly looked at Xiao Yuanshi and said, "If you have nothing to do recently, please help me check something."
