Chapter 660: Adjustment

When she first arrived at the city lord's mansion, Aunt Liu expressed her kindness to her, but Li Haitang clearly knew that everything was because of interests. She and Aunt Liu's deadly rival Xu were fighting for jobs, and the enemy's enemy was a friend.

If she foolishly told the truth, maybe Aunt Liu would be the first to expose her.

Li Haitang understood the truth, so she tried to keep a distance from Aunt Liu as close as possible.

Erni was not there, so she ordered a little girl to make a fire. It was just after dark, and she returned to her small room with ten egg yolk pastries.

Li Haitang made oil paper, wrapped the egg yolk pastry, and tied it with a rope. Just now when he came back and ran into Erni, he heard that the city lord was furious because of Shuang Jiang's dereliction of duty.

Dongmei, the chief steward's daughter, is poisoned and disfigured. The chief steward doesn't believe that Tassel did it, but suspects Shuangjiang and Bailu.

No, if you get a chance, Shuang Jiang will be unlucky.

Erni was successful in spreading the word, and Li Haitang rewarded her with a handful of peanut crisps brought in from Bailu's, the little girl was delighted.

The city lord asked Bai Lu to accompany him, and would not summon her as a cook. Depending on the weather, Li Haitang decided to check the secret place that Erni had mentioned.

Along the way, I met many servants on patrol, seeing her dressed as a cook, and passed by with just a few glances. There was no danger along the way.

Li Haitang came to the back garden and went straight to the gardener's little house.

In winter, there are no flowers and plants to take care of, and there is a layer of dust piled up inside, and no one comes here on weekdays. She knocked on the wall with her hand as Erni said, and finally approached the wall in the back street and pushed it, and a road appeared. Door.

The door was turned into a secret door by the gardener, and it was not conspicuous at all whether it was inside or outside.

After going out to the back street, Li Haitang carefully drew a map, and she went straight to the rice store according to the address left by her savage husband.

It was dark, and the clerk was closing the shop. Li Haitang was wandering behind the door. She didn't know what pseudonym Xiao Lingchuan used, so it was hard to find someone.

On the contrary, it was the buddy who saw her poking her head at the door and shouted, "Hey, big guy, your girl is here to find you!"

After the man finished speaking, he glanced at Li Haitang, tsk tsk, although the big girl works in the city lord's mansion, but she doesn't look very good, if she is a juicy girl, maybe he wants the big guy to help her talk.

After waiting for about half a quarter, Xiao Lingchuan came out from the back hall. He had a faded white cloth towel around his neck, exactly the same as the handyman in the shop. She didn't expect her own wife to come, so she was taken aback for a moment.

"Sister, why are you here?"

After Xiao Lingchuan realized it, he quickly took the oiled paper bag from Li Haitang's hand.

"I'll come and see you."

Li Haitang pursed her lips, remembering the curse of single dogs, hoping that there will be lovers in the world who will become brothers and sisters. This is not the case now for the couple.

"Then let me take you to eat, have you eaten yet?"

Xiao Lingchuan wiped his hands, turned his head and explained to the boy, and then brought Li Haitang to an unremarkable small inn.

The small inn was rebuilt from a farmhouse. There were only a few rooms. The advantage was that the owner provided food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Xiao Lingchuan brought his wife to the house, and made another pot of stewed radish with beef.

"Miss..."

"Husband..."

The two said at the same time, and looked at each other, Li Haitang scrambled and said, "I'll talk first."

In the city lord's mansion, I feel oppressed. After I come out, even if I am in Surabaya City instead of Daqi's territory, I still feel a sense of openness.

If it wasn't for saving Liusu, she didn't want to give up halfway, and Li Haitang really didn't want to stay for a quarter of an hour.

The little bean bun was still at home, and the little bun couldn't see his parents, so he had to make a fuss. It is estimated that the servants at home haven't slept well in the past few days.

"Husband, let me tell you first, I know where Tassel is hidden."

Li Haitang recounted the news he had inquired about today. Of course, the process must not be so dangerous. She beautified it and made everything quite easy.

Xiao Lingchuan didn't speak for a while, his brows were furrowed tightly, he could kill a fly, he couldn't describe his mood.

He regretted that he should not have let his wife come to Sishui City, and allowed her to sneak into the City Lord's Mansion.

"Haitang, you are taking risks like this."

Xiao Lingchuan didn't know how to speak for a moment, he had to take into account his wife's emotions.

This time, on the surface, it was to rescue Liusu, but in fact, his main task was to find Yun Jinghong. As long as Yun Jinghong returned to the camp in the north of the city, everything would be fine.

Before he came, his purpose was to find people, not to save them. Tell Li Haitang these words, does she feel that she is too cold?

Everyone has their own position, and his position is that the barbarians must be resisted, which is also his father's wish.

Liusu is Yun Jinghong's woman, he has neither the right nor the obligation to help.

It is true that Liusu was invited to rescue Yun Jinghong, but it was a transaction between the black market and the Yun family, and neither owed anything to the other.

"Husband, I understand what you mean."

There was a tacit understanding between the two. Li Haitang knew what Xiao Lingchuan was thinking. She put herself in his shoes and thought about it. There was nothing wrong with him thinking that way.

"I still want to save Liusu."

As a sister and a friend, if the other party has difficulties, she should help. If she is really powerless, then that's another story, but it's not the time to say that yet.

Furthermore, when they walked the secret passage in the dungeon, the two of them went together, and met many black and white people along the way, and Liu Su was also desperately protecting her.

The kindness of a drop of water should be reciprocated by the spring. If others treat you well, you should repay them twice. This is the principle that Li Haitang has always been a man.

She knew there was a risk, and she came anyway.

"Miss, you should find a way to tamper with Tassel's food."

Xiao Lingchuan sighed, and left the rest to him.

Faced with the machismo of the savage husband, Li Haitang covered his mouth, as he always did, and finally took everything on himself.

Between husband and wife, it is impossible to say who is strong and who is weak, and there is no rule that who must be protected, and only by supporting each other can they go far.

"You are right."

The result of the conversation between the two was that Xiao Lingchuan compromised unconditionally. It wasn't that the two agreed that if she was hurt in the slightest, she would be spanked fifty times by him.

"The secret door was a surprise. It seems that we should change our strategy."

Xiao Lingchuan immediately adjusted the arrangement. In order to save Liusu, he originally planned to find a group of people to assassinate Yu Wenshou and take advantage of the chaos to take away Liusu.

But this plan is very risky. Those assassins are all dead soldiers he has cultivated for so many years, and they are all used here. I am afraid that the entire army will be wiped out, and none of them will come back. This is tantamount to exchanging the lives of many people for Tassel, and there is still the possibility of failure.
