"Of course I can't blame you in that case." Li Yishan said, "You can rest assured that there is someone around the young master who is proficient in identifying and detoxifying poisons. If there is an accident, it can only be said that the young master's life is not good, and your reward will still be
constant."
Xia Yu nodded with satisfaction, "In that case, I agree! But I still have one request."
"Brother Yuwen, please speak!" Li Yishan said hurriedly.
"I want to book the entire top floor of Baiyun Restaurant, and I don't want anyone to disturb me."
Li Yishan was stunned, "Brother Yuwen, don't you need some helpers?"
"I like to be at ease. When there are too many people, it's easy to be constrained." Xia Yu said with a smile.
Li Yishan pondered for a moment and nodded decisively, "Okay! Just follow my brother Yuwen!"
Originally, Meng Shixiong planned to send a few people to assist Xia Yu, but since Xia Yu didn't need it, Li Yishan didn't force it. He felt that since Yu Wenxia was a ranger, he still rejected their general's mansion and the general's mansion in Xiadu.
Ranger, I'm afraid he really likes to be alone.
Li Yishan took out a storage ring from his arms, handed it to Xia Yu, and said: "Brother Yuwen, here are 10,000 medium-grade spiritual stones, which will be counted as a deposit. After the matter is completed, there will be another 20,000. This matter is ours
If you do it privately, you can’t go through public accounts, and the spirit stone card won’t work, so I have to give you the spirit stones directly.”
Thirty thousand medium-grade spiritual stones, secretly protecting Yue Xiaolin for three months, Meng Shixiong is considered a big deal. Dealing with warriors is more pleasant. Meng Shixiong is not worried about Xia Yu taking the deposit and running away, and Xia Yu is not worried about it after the matter is completed.
The General's Mansion defaulted on the bill, and the two of them didn't even establish a written receipt, so the deal was concluded.
Xia Yu smiled slightly and did not refuse. He reached out to take the storage ring, took out the spirit stone inside, and returned the storage ring to Li Yishan. He said with a smile: "The spirit stone is better, Xiaopang likes it best."
Li Yishan also knew that Qiao Xiaopang was a formation master, and what he needed to set up the formation was real spirit stones. The spirit stone card was inconvenient, so he smiled and said: "Also, during this period, all your expenses at Baiyun Restaurant will be
Count it on us!”
"Well..." Xia Yu nodded, "I will take two friends to Baiyun Restaurant. Is that okay?"
"One is Mr. Qiao, right?" Li Yishan asked, "Who is the other one? Is it reliable?"
"There is another friend who is my partner on another mission. Don't worry, he must be reliable." Xia Yu said with a smile.
"That's no problem!" Li Yishan said with a smile, "Again, all the expenses at Baiyun Restaurant during this period have been paid for by the General's Office! Brother Yuwen, even if you want to call some girls from Yicuilou over, there is no problem.
,Ha ha!"
Xia Yu couldn't help but laugh, "That's definitely not possible. Drinking flowers and wine can easily cause trouble... But I am really touched by General Meng's concern for Young Master Yue."
Li Yishan waved his hand, "Our general mainly thinks that the rules cannot be broken. The current Lord Yue City is not very qualified. If Miss Yue really succeeds, Hailuo Prefecture will be annexed by Yanli Prefecture sooner or later!"
"Well... no matter what, General Meng's move is still admirable." Xia Yu said with a smile.
Xia Yu said what he said from his heart. He did not expect that Meng Shixiong would intervene. In his opinion, Meng Shixiong should choose to watch the civil strife in the City Lord's Mansion and then go to the army to investigate, so as to maximize the interests of the General's Mansion.
Therefore, Xia Yu's original plan was to intervene in this matter through the Song family.
A few days ago, he made a special trip to the Song Mansion. On the one hand, he wanted to treat Song Xingyan and make the Song family owe Xue Caiyi a favor, paving the way for future events. On the other hand, he also wanted to take the opportunity to get closer to each other. According to
Xia Yu's speculation
, when it is confirmed that Song Xingyan has completely recovered in a few days, the Song family will definitely send someone to give gifts to Xue Caiyi, and they will definitely come to thank themselves and the mysterious doctor Shangguan Linglong, and the person who comes will definitely be a heavyweight core figure of the Song family.
.
Xia Yu originally planned to wait until the Song family came to mention the matter of the City Lord's Mansion, but now that Meng Shixiong has come to find him, there is no need for him to go through the Song family.
He made an appointment with Li Yishan that someone would come and take him to Baiyun Restaurant the next day, so Xia Yu sent Li Yishan out of Ping'an Inn. Li Yishan wore a bamboo hat when he came and the same when he left. Obviously he was very careful and didn't want to let anyone go.
People from the Yue family show up.
Back at the inn, Xia Yu told Fatty Qiao about the incident.
When he heard that he could go to a restaurant to eat and drink for free for three months, Qiao Xiaopang immediately raised his hands in agreement and laughed loudly: "You don't have to run errands, you have delicious food, and you can earn spiritual stones while lying down. Such a cost-effective task,
One hundred is not too many!"
Xia Yu gave him an annoyed look, "You don't have to do anything, I still have to protect that little guy!"
"You?" Qiao Xiaopang said, "I still don't know what your plan is? With Fat Ball here, why do you need to keep an eye on it every day? Are you about to break through again? You are just in retreat during this period, right?"
"
"Have you seen all this?" Xia Yu said with a smile, "I plan to retreat, but I don't know if I can break through. It just so happens that there is no one to disturb me there. While you are eating and drinking, don't mind helping me protect the law.
Bar?"
"No problem!" Qiao Xiaopang patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I have prepared the girl from Yicui Tower for you, and you can use it when you come out of seclusion!"
"You'd better keep it to yourself and enjoy it! Just take it easy, it's only three months, don't end up dying!"
"Get out of here! You underestimate me, Fatty! Three months is nothing."
"Just blow it..."
The two chatted and laughed for a while, and Qiao Xiaopang sighed: "I didn't expect that Meng Shixiong would do this. There are not many people who abide by the rules like him these days!"
Xia Yu also nodded, "Li Yishan didn't say much just now. I think there may be different opinions on this matter within the City Lord's Mansion."
"That's definitely the case." Fatty Qiao said with a smile, "With Yanlizhou Zhuyu in front of him, Meng Shixiong can actually stick to his heart. He is really a talent."
"It's good that he has this heart, but his ability... is still a bit lacking." Xia Yu said with a smile.
Fatty Qiao was stunned, "How do you say this?"
"A few days ago, Caiyi gave me the information about the General's Mansion." Xia Yu said with a smile, "The information is very detailed, and everything else is easy to talk about, but even the content of their current special training in the army is also very detailed, which is troublesome.
Even if there isn’t a mole in the General’s Mansion, at least Meng Shixiong won’t be able to escape if he doesn’t run the army strictly!”
"That's true..." Qiao Xiaopang nodded subconsciously, then suddenly shook his head, "That's not right! This doesn't mean that Meng Shixiong is not strict in his military management, but that your sister Caiyi is too powerful!"
"Haha, that's not a bad thing to say..." Xia Yu said with a smile.
