Chapter 1321 Qi Lie
Manager Xu wanted to ask again, but when he saw Ren Huai's expression was wrong, he was slightly stunned, "What's wrong?"
"That person seems to be the personal guard beside the new emperor, right?"
Manager Xu raised his head and looked along his gaze. Sure enough, he saw a familiar figure beside Xiang Weinan.
It’s true that this is not the New Emperor’s confidant guard, Qi Lie?
Before the fifth prince ascended the throne, he was just an inconspicuous prince. He occasionally appeared in the market and always had a guard around him, and the common one was Qi Lie.
Since the fifth prince ascended the throne, as one of his confidants, Qi Lie's identity has naturally risen with the flow and has become a popular commodity in the eyes of everyone.
Logically speaking, such a person should be in the capital and be by the emperor's side at this moment.
How could it... appear in a remote county town?
"Just just transfer the Lord Xiang back to the capital, just an ordinary prosecutor. Where does Qi Lie need to take action?"
Manager Xu nodded, "And looking at Guard Qi, it seems to be quite familiar with Lord Xiang."
Ren Huai was a little confused, "Let's go and take a look."
However, the two of them had to follow the county yamen, and Xiang Weinan and Qi Lie entered the yamen.
After entering the house, Xiang Weinan smiled and patted Qi Lie on the shoulder, "I didn't expect it would be you who came."
Qi Lie sat on the chair and poured himself a cup of tea, "Do you think I came for you? Be self-indulgent."
Xiang Weinan narrowed his eyes, "Who are you doing for?"
"Luxiangjun."
Xiang Weinan, “…”
"They're engaged."
Qi Lie almost spit out a mouthful of tea, "Of course I know, the other party is still Meng Yunzheng. Do you think I don't want to live anymore and go and compete with Mr. Meng?"
"Then you can't be for the sunflower oil, right? You'll just leave this kind of thing to the palace to purchase, and you still need to come here in person?"
Qi Lie sighed, "Sunflower oil is one of them."
Xiang Weinan sat opposite him curiously, "What about the second one?"
Qi Lie glanced at him sideways, "You are so curious about other people's affairs, so think about yourself first. You are about to go back to Beijing. After Xiao returned home a few years ago, he was taken back by the Xiao family, saying that Xiao's father was sick and went back to serve the disease. He did not go home again after he went there."
Xiang Weinan looked serious and frowned slightly, "What do my parents say?"
"The countess has visited the house twice and wants to call Xiao back. However, the Xiao family refused to let anyone go, so I was surprised. What did they do to hold your wife? They didn't know you would be promoted back a year ago. The emperor always felt that it was strange. When you return to Beijing, go to the Xiao family to take a look."
"I know." Xiang Weinan felt a headache when he thought of the Xiao family.
Fortunately, although Xiao is a girl from the Xiao family, she is not the daughter of the head of the family.
Xiao is the only granddaughter of the third master of the Xiao family, the eldest master of the Xiao family is the most powerful.
Concubine Xiao is the daughter of the master, and Xiao should call Concubine Xiao the aunt.
Because the Xiao family has only one granddaughter in this generation, Xiao family, even if their father and grandfather are not officials, they are very favored, especially the love of Concubine Xiao.
Xiang Weinan, a husband, has no problem with taking Xiao home. It is impossible for him to serve Ji for the rest of his life.
Qi Lie and Xiang Weinan talked about some of the current situation in the capital, and began to ask Shu Yu, "Lu Xiangjun, please find someone to talk about it. I don't have much time in Jiangyuan County, so I will discuss the sunflower oil first."
"I'll ask Huli to go to Lu's house now."
