Chapter 247 Old Wishes, Return to the Imperial City

15 miles west of the imperial city, when Zeng Yanliang and others rushed here quickly, they were naturally led to Guicaizhuang by the fragrance of flowers floating in the air.

From the outside, Guicaizhuang is a not-large manor. Zeng Yanliang and the three of them got off the horse and knocked on the door. After the doorkeeper came out, Zeng Yanliang said it in the future. After hearing this, the gatekeeper told Zeng Yanliang with a bitter face that his old man had ordered him not to visit guests a few years ago. Zeng Yanliang asked about the reason, but the gatekeeper was very in a deep way.

The three came here and hit a nail. Only then did Zeng Yanliang understand why Dou Yandong said that to him like that. It seems that it is really not easy to invite people from this Guicaizhuang.

This is a remote village. There are no inns or restaurants. Three people can only lead horses around the village aimlessly.

"What should I do..." Little Nineteen asked Bai Chongling dejectedly.

Bai Chongling glanced at the people around him and said carelessly, "First find out who the old man of that family is and why he doesn't see guests, and then figure it out."

The three found another family in the village who seemed to live a better life and knocked on them. The man of that family saw three strong men dressed in noble clothes and led a tall horse to his door. They were very scared, but when Bai Chongling told the man what they meant, the man revealed the small mountain village. The unique simplicity and enthusiasm of the people.

The man let the three of them into the courtyard. After tying the horses, they sat at the wooden table in the yard and asked for a few bowls of cold well water.

"Uncle, who on earth lives in Guicaizhuang?" Zeng Yanliang asked.

Uncle claimed to be surnamed Li, and he seemed to rarely see people outside, so he was also very talkative. When he heard Zeng Yanliang ask about Guicaizhuang, Uncle Li couldn't help sighing.

According to what he said, the old owner of Guicaizhuang is also surnamed Li Chengxiang. He is famous for planting precious flowers and plants in this generation. Many of the flowers and plants he raised were bought by dignitaries in the imperial city, and the most precious flower seems to have been bought and donated to the palace by a senior official, which was extremely glorious. Yao's matter, but I heard that the people in the palace would not serve the flower. Not long after entering the palace, the flowers carefully cultivated by Li Chengxiang died. The news reached Li Chengxiang's ears. He was depressed for a long time, and later released a message. If he didn't grow flowers in the future, he would never see any more guests.

After knowing the inside story, the three of them sat together to discuss countermeasures. In a word, they were going to meet the old man Li Chengxiang. After discussing, the three told Uncle Li to take care of the horses, and then the three of them got up and returned to Guicaizhuang.

Back to Guicaizhuang, the three of them did not knock on the door, but came to the next wall, rose up, climbed over the wall and entered the yard.

The gatekeeper was shocked when he found three figures climbing over the wall. He turned around and ran to the room to report the owner about the matter. Before he finished speaking, Zeng Yanliang and the other three had already opened the door and entered the room.

An old man in the room sat at the table drinking tea and reading a book. He looked calm. Although the doorman panicked and told the story, he didn't even raise his eyes and whispered, "There is nothing left here. Several heroes came from there, go back."

Zeng Yanliang stepped forward and saluted Li Chengxiang and said, "It's helpless for the three of us to break into your house. Please forgive me. We have something important to ask the old gentleman for help. It's a matter of great importance, and we also ask the old gentleman to go to the imperial city with us.

After Zeng Yanliang said this, Li Chengxiang's eyes still did not leave the book in his hand. After a moment, he said, "I have nothing here. If you are really trapped by a big event, please find someone who can help you as soon as possible.

At this time, Xiao 19 lost his temper. He ran to Li Chengxiang, grabbed the book he read, and said angrily, "You old man, don't you ask who we are here for and why? You are sad and angry about your beloved flowers and plants. Does anyone else in the world mean anything to you?

Li Chengxiang looked up at Xiao 19 when he heard the words and sneered, "As you said, whose order did you come from? I't have no interest in knowing. As for the world's major events you are talking about, can I, a person like me living in a corner of a mountain village? The person who came to me either wants to take the flowers and plants from my hand or wants me to grow flowers for him. I know too well what I can do. What big things can be involved in this? It's just the fun of those rich and noble families who work hard for a while. At most, which prince wants to please the young lady with this, and which nobleman wants to flatter the nobles. Speaking of this, Li Chengxiang waved his hand again and said helplessly, "Go back, I really have nothing here. Unless you kill me and take my head back to return to life, I will never take a step forward.

Zeng Yanliang heard Li Chengxiang's words and felt the helplessness in the old man's heart. He drove the gatekeeper out of the house, then sat opposite Li Chengxiang, and told Leng Xuanrong's dilemma and stakes about it.

After listening to Zeng Yanliang's words, Li Chengxiang also seemed to be shocked. In any case, he did not expect that these three people would really come with such important things. But after listening to it, Li Chengxiang was also confused. There seemed to be no place for Li Chengxiang to participate in the whole matter.

"Mr. Wu of the Imperial Master's Mansion told me personally that this matter would not have been done without the help of the old gentleman of Guicaizhuang." Zeng Yanliang looked firmly at Li Chengxiang, "Mr. Li, if you don't show up, the way to ensure that Xuanrong has nothing to do can't be achieved. In that case, I, Zeng Yanliang, must take Xuanrong out of the imperial city. In this way, not only will the grievances I have suffered will never be revealed, but also make the wicked win. Not only that, the future situation will become more complicated. Old sir, you said that you can only grow flowers, but now your skill can ensure that many people have no worries about their lives. Even if you know that you have pain in your heart, Zeng Yanliang still dares to ask you to think twice.

Zeng Yanliang's words really shook what Li Chengxiang said.

At this time, Bai Chongling beat the drum and said, "If you have any wishes, why don't you take this opportunity to propose it? Although we can't guarantee that the wish you said will come true, as long as you say it, we will do everything we can to help you achieve it.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Xiaoshio also coaxed, "Old man, whether you want money or status, there is always a master who can do it. Don't think that we are light-hearted. As long as you can say what you can say, we can basically do it!"

Li Chengxiang frowned and looked at the three young people in front of him. What Bai Chongling said suddenly aroused a wish in the old man's heart for many years. He hesitated for a long time before asking Zeng Yanliang, "Are they telling the truth?" Li Chengxiang saw that Zeng Yanliang was still the leader of this matter.

Zeng Yanliang nodded vigorously. Since Bai Chongling and Xiaozhu said something, there is no need for Zeng Yanliang to deny it. No matter what the old man demands, there are Mr. Wu and King Xiaohan!

Li Chengxiang saw that Zeng Yanliang's serious face did not seem to lie to him. Then he sighed and said to Zeng Yanliang, "Many years ago, I handed over an ice jade beauty cultivated with painstaking efforts to others, and the man sent this rare flower in the world into the harem. But soon after, I heard that the flower had been raised to death..." Li Chengxiang said that when the flower died, it looked like his own child had died. After so many years, when he mentioned it, there were still tears in his eyes, and he could see how much he had thought about the flower.

"Although the flower is dead, it may still stay in its original place. I have been thinking about it for many years, but I haven't been able to find the way in the palace, let alone confirm what the flower looks like now..." Li Chengxiang took out a sweat towel to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, looked at Zeng Yanliang and asked, "I only have one wish in my life. I want to know what happened to the ice jade beauty, such as The fruit root is still there... Can I get it back..."

Zeng Yanliang knows nothing about flowers and plants, but since Li Chengxiang's wish has been said, Zeng Yanliang feels that there is no difficulty in this matter. King Xiaohan can walk in the palace at will. It should not be difficult to see whether a flower is dead or alive. Even if King Xiaohan doesn't want to do this, as long as he goes to beg Miss Dou San of the emperor's mansion, he should be able to do it.

"Mr. Li, don't worry, Zeng Yanliang promises you that this matter will be done." Zeng Yanliang patted his chest and said to Li Chengxiang.

Li Chengxiang's hope, which had been suppressed for many years, was finally rekindled, and his whole body trembled with excitement.

After his happiness faded a little, the four people decided not to be late and rushed to the imperial city immediately.

Li Chengxiang ordered people to set the carriage and horses, and then deliberately and solemnly moved out a large wooden box with a fine package of half a person's height from the back house. After Li Chengxiang sat on the carriage, the large wooden box was also carefully placed in the carriage.

Zeng Yanliang and others did not ask what was in the wooden box. The three went to Uncle Li's house to retrieve the horses and thanked them before escorting the carriage back to the imperial city.

It took almost twice as long on the way back, because Li Chengxiang did not let the carriage speed up anyway. Although the three were anxious, they had no choice but to walk slowly. When they finally arrived at the imperial city, Xiao 19 and Bai Chongling separated from Zeng Yanliang.
