Chapter 444 He has long admired His Highness
Lu Li took a closer look and found that it was the man who helped them insult and curse the Rakshasa people in front of the rip-off fur shop yesterday.
"We met yesterday, have you forgotten?" the man asked excitedly.
"No, what do you want?" Lu Li asked.
"Miss, my name is Tao Rong. I have a favor to ask of you." He clasped his hands together and bowed to Lu Li.
He had been looking for them for a long time and finally found them.
"We don't know each other, I may not be able to help you. It's no use looking for me." Lu Li squinted her eyes and looked at him.
"I saw everything that happened yesterday. I know that the girl is very capable. I am desperate, otherwise I wouldn't ask you for help." Tao Rong rubbed his palms uneasily.
I don't know whether this noble man is willing to help.
"Tell me first, what exactly is going on?"
When he was away from home and his own people asked him for help, Lu Li would naturally not sit idly by.
"My mother was very ill, and she wanted my sister to come back and see her before she died. I sent a letter to my married sister, but she didn't reply." Tao Rong recounted the whole story.
"I couldn't bear to see my mother die with regrets, so I went to look for her myself. My sister married into the Green Mane tribe, and I went to look for her there, but my brother-in-law's family said that my sister had followed her sister-in-law from the tribe to Erzhou to sell fur coats for a month, and during that time she only asked her fellow villagers to send her some silver, and she hasn't returned home since."
"So I went to Erzgebirge myself to look for it. But I found nothing."
At this point, the eight-foot-tall man wiped away his tears.
"My mother is still waiting to see Yinyin for the last time. Miss Jiu, please help me find my sister."
Lu Li gave him a meaningful look: "Do you know who I am?"
Tao Rong's face froze, and he fell to his knees on the ground.
"Yes, Miss Jiu, I recognized you, so I came to ask you for help."
Everyone in the tavern looked over.
"Get up." Lu Li signaled Qu Songnian to move a chair for him and let him sit next to him.
Tao Rong sat down with great fear and trepidation.
"How did you recognize me?"
Lu Li was a little curious.
Logically speaking, no one should know her in this foreign country.
"I met you when you were a child. In Changliu Village." Tao Rong told his origins.
He is a villager of Changliu Village.
At that time, all the children in the villages around them had worms in their stomachs, but their village was spared from this disaster because of Zhu Xinhui.
Lu Li looked at him in astonishment: "That was when I was just over two years old, and you could still recognize me?"
Tao Rong nodded, looking a little uncomfortable.
Lu Li saw through his lie and frowned, "Tell the truth, or I won't help you."
After hearing this, Tao Rong gritted his teeth and decided to tell the truth.
In his heart, he secretly apologized to his good brother Tao Guo and lowered his voice to say, "Didn't Uncle Tao's family get taken to the capital by Lord Zhu back then? Their house was given to my mother to look after. Later, when we were about to move away, I sold the house for them and went to the capital to hand over their things to them."
"I met Tao Guo and saw your portrait in his study."
"Why did he hide my portrait?" Lu Li looked puzzled.
Fengqi clenched his fists.
Why else could it be? This guy must have some bad intentions towards Ah Li!
"He has admired Your Highness for a long time. But he feels that he is not worthy of you, so he has never revealed any of his feelings to others." Tao Rong closed his eyes and said.
Lu Li thought about it and finally remembered this guy.
Tao Guo is the younger brother of Mrs. Zhu Xinhui. He later studied painting with Liu Danqing. He passed the college entrance examination two years ago and is now in charge of banknotes in the Ministry of Revenue.
He came of age last year, but had not yet married.
In Beijing nowadays, it is not too late for girls to get engaged at the age of 18 and for boys at the age of 20, so she did not notice Tao Guo.
Lu Li used the gossip system to check it out and found that Tao Rong was not lying.
There is indeed a portrait of her in Tao Guo's study.
[Hey, it seems that this princess is still very charming. 】
[Tao Guo is not bad looking and has abilities. He will probably take over the position of Minister of Revenue in the future and manage the treasury's money bag. Should I take him into my harem and use him for my own purposes?]
Lu Li rolled his eyes and began to think.
When Fengqi heard this, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, okay, there's one more competitor, right?"
He really wanted to tell Ah Li that if you want a man to be useful to you, you don’t have to let him enter the harem! Being a minister is also good!
But that would reveal that he could hear Lu Li's thoughts.
Feng Qi could only swallow back what was in her heart with frustration.
Lu Li just thought about it casually and put the matter out of her mind. She had to see what was going on with Tao Rong's sister Tao Yinyin.
"Miss Jiu, can you find out the whereabouts of my sister?" Tao Rong looked at Lu Li expectantly.
After recognizing Lu Li, he tossed and turned all night.
I'm still confused and want to ask her for help.
The Crown Princess has the ability to predict the future, and maybe she can predict where his sister is now.
So he tossed and turned all night, and finally decided to come find Lu Li.
Fortunately, there are not many Daxia people in Erzhou, and Lu Li and his group are distinctive and easy to find, otherwise he would not be able to create an encounter like this.
"Wait a minute." Lu Li closed his eyes and used the Guagua system to search for Tao Yinyin's whereabouts.
Soon, her face turned ugly.
Tao Rong was anxious, but he didn't dare to say anything. He could only sit there anxiously.
He drank cup after cup of tea, and sweat broke out on his head.
His mother was still waiting for him and Yin Yin to come home, and he must find Yin Yin.
[These people are so heartless that they only harm their own people. ]
[They said they came to El Chapo to make money, but in fact they tricked people into going to the brothels here. ]
【How abominable.】
"Bang"
Lu Li slammed his fist on the table.
"Ari, be careful about your hand." Feng Qi wanted to check if her hand was injured, but was afraid of offending her, so he silently withdrew his hand.
"I'm fine." Lu Li shook his head with a cold face.
"Miss Jiu, has something happened to my sister?" Looking at her expression, Tao Rong had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Yeah." Lu Li took a deep breath and nodded.
Tao Rong's mind went blank in an instant and he subconsciously clenched the cup in his hand.
He had thought about this situation, but he was unwilling to accept it, so he kept deceiving himself and believed that his sister was fine.
"Is she still alive?" Tao Rong's voice was a little harsh.
"My condolences." Lu Li sighed, thinking of the tragic end of that woman, feeling angry and sad.
After being tricked into accepting a customer, Tao Yinyin could no longer endure it and committed suicide last night.
"If she's alive, I want to see her in person; if she's dead, I want to see her body. Even if Yinyin is gone, I want to take her body home." Tao Rong's eyes were filled with tears.
"Miss Jiu, can you tell me what happened?" He spoke tremblingly.
