"This young master Li is both civil and military, young and heroic. He is not a thing in the long run. He will definitely do something in the future." The old slave stood in the yard, looked at Li Ke's leaving figure, and said to Wu Meiniang beside him.

Wu Meiniang said, "Yes, although I don't know much about Mr. Li, he is good at advancing and retreating, neither humble nor arrogant. I believe he is a person who has experienced a lot of scenes. He is definitely not a person who can educate ordinary wealthy families. I don't know which powerful family in the capital can produce such talents."

The Tang Dynasty has been in peace for more than ten years, and the world is not as peaceful as the chaotic times when heroes rose up at the end of the Sui Dynasty. It has long passed the time of fame. Although it cannot be said that all the heroes in the world are famous, it is still true that the poor families are hard to have noble sons, let alone people like Li Ke.

Although Li Ke is "depressed" at the moment, he cannot pretend to be calm and indifferent in every move.

The old slave asked Wu Meiniang, "Maybe Xiaoniang guess which family he is in the capital?"

Wu Meiniang thought about it and shook her head, "Mr. Li has always been very secretive about her identity and never mentions it. Even if she asks about it occasionally, he will deliberately dodge it, and I don't know."

The old slave listened to Wu Meiniang's words and said with a smile: "Although I haven't left Jiangling, I'm always outside the mansion. I can hear some news, and I don't know if the guess is right."

Wu Meiniang looked at the smile on the old slave's face, knowing that he must have heard some news, so she asked curiously: "What news can Uncle Li hear? Is it related to Mr. Li's family background?"

The old slave nodded and said, "Have you ever heard of the former Huainan Jing King Li Shentong?"

Wu Meiniang said: "The King of Huainan is the founding Yuan Su of the Tang Dynasty. I know that Mr. Li is still related to the King of Huainan?"

The King of Huainan was also a military minister of the royal family. Although his reputation was not as good as that of King Li Xiaogong of Hejian and King Li Daozong of Rencheng, he was also considered a person, and Wu Meiniang had also heard of it.

The old slave said: "I heard yesterday that Li Daoyan, the eldest son of the King of Huainan, and Li Daoyan, the governor of Minzhou, was defeated by the head of the Dangxiang chief Tuoba Chici, because of the unfavorable war in the western border. His troops were killed and injured by nearly 10,000 people, so he was punished by Your Majesty and exiled to the border areas. Li Daoyan's son Li Wenzhao was also demoted to a commoner and expelled from Chang'an."

When Wu Meiniang heard this, she understood what the old slave meant, so she asked: "Uncle Li means Mr. Li is Mr. Li Wenzhao, the eldest son of Mr. Jiaodong?"

The old slave replied: "If you count the age, Li Wenzhao should not be as old as the youngest, which is similar to Mr. Li. Li Wenzhao is a royal family and also from a general. His grandfathers are all from the army. It is reasonable to have the demeanor of Mr. Li."

"So that's it." Listening to Lao Nu's words, Wu Meiniang nodded slightly, unconsciously believed it seven or eight points.

When Li Ke was in Chang'an, even the sons and nephews of Changsun's family wanted to give him three points. It can be seen that Li Ke is definitely not a child of an ordinary powerful family, and it is not impossible to say that he is a child of a royal family.

In addition, Li Ke was good at shooting at a young age, and the ribbon that was a finger wide from three feet away was also pinched casually. He must be a disciple of the general, both a royal family and a general. In addition, Li Daoyan has suddenly suffered a sudden change recently, so there is no such coincidence in this world.

Therefore, when Wu Meiniang thought, Li Ke was probably Li Wenzhu, the son of Jiaodong Duke Li Daoyan. But she didn't expect that, and how could she dare to think that the "down-and-out" boy who stayed in his mansion was the second son of Emperor Tang, and the honorable King of Chu of the dynasty.

This old slave has been following the warrior for more than ten years. Wu Meiniang was the one he watched as growing up. The old slave had no children, so in his eyes, Wu Meiniang is no different from his daughter.

The old slave looked at Wu Meiniang standing in front of him, with a smile in his eyes, and smiled at Wu Meiniang, "It's a pity that Mr. Li's family has fallen into decline. Otherwise, with his character and talent, he would be a good match for the little girl."

Wu Meiniang seemed different from ordinary women. Ordinary women had a very thin face and knew a little about men and women when they were in their early teens. If an ordinary woman heard this, she would inevitably look shy. But when Wu Meiniang heard this, she could not see any blushing on her face. Instead, she stared at the old slave with wide eyes and shook her head seriously and said, "My future husband must be a hero among men, a rare hero at that time, not a down-and-out young man."

When the old slave heard this, he said to Wu Meiniang: "Although Mr. Li is now in a down-and-out situation, with his talent, he must not be a person who has been inferior for a long time, and he will have a day to make a comeback sooner or later. What's more, the crime committed by Mr. Jiaodong will not die. With his feelings with Your Majesty, he will definitely recover sooner or later. The so-called wealth is just a matter of time."

In the old lady's opinion, the reason why Wu Meiniang looked down on Mr. Li was mostly because of his current situation. However, Li Daoyan was unusual in martial arts. He was a clan of the royal family. His father, Li Shentong, had a close relationship with Li Shimin. Although Li Daoyan was demoted for a while, he would not be like this for a long time. Li Shimin would be activated in a while. By then, Mr. Li would naturally no longer be a homeless down-and-out boy.

Li Daoyan's uncle and uncle were not many of them who were appointed as kings and generals in the court. It was a pity that Li Daoyan would be reinstated. The old slave thought it was not bad, but he didn't know Wu Meiniang's spirit. Wu Meiniang was already the daughter of a duke, so she wanted to marry an ordinary royal family. She wanted to marry that very noble person. Even if she was not a prince, she should be the three dukes in the court and the chief official.

————————————

Li Ke was trapped in Jiangling, unwilling to reveal his identity easily, and unable to leave the city. It is a dilemma. But at the same time, the search for Li Ke in Huainan area has never been relaxed.

In the southeast, Shuzhou, this place is already the Jianghuai border. If you go further west, you will completely leave the Huainan territory and the Huainan territory. If you want to find Li Ke’s traces, you will be looking for a needle in a haystack.

Since Li Ke disappeared, the Chu Palace has not stopped for half a day these days. Even if it is a slight opportunity, it will still search for Li Ke's traces everywhere.

Chu, Yang, He, Lu and other Huainan prefectures and counties have almost been searched, and the notices have been posted on various city gates and densely woven official roads, but they have never used any information. If it is the case in Shuzhou, then there is really only the way to find a needle in a haystack.

Shuzhou Prefecture, Qin Huaidao, who was ordered to go to Shuzhou to investigate, was swaying back and forth in the lobby, sighing from time to time, watching the sky gradually darkening, the anxiety in his heart was written on his face.

"General Qin, General Qin." Just as it was getting late, Qin Huaidao only found nothing today. Just as he was thinking about what to do, a burst of cry suddenly came from outside the government office. Following the shouts, a moment later a servant from the government office walked in quickly.

"General Qin, there is news about Your Highness." As soon as the officer entered the door, he told Qin Huai.

When Qin Huaidao heard this, he said happily: "Where is the news coming?"

The officer pointed to the man who looked like a fisherman behind him and said to Qin Huai: "General Qin, this person just now revealed the list of the official road and claimed that he had seen His Highness."

Qin Huaidao looked at the fisherman standing behind the officer and asked, "When and where did you see Your Highness?"

The fisherman replied: "Six days ago, I saw Your Highness at the edge of the Anhui River. His Highness's appearance is exactly the same as the ones drawn on the list."

When Qin Huaidao heard this, he asked excitedly: "Do you know where Your Highness has gone?"

The fisherman thought for a while and said, "The villain really doesn't know where Your Highness has gone. It's just that the boatman of Your Highness's passenger ship bought a fish on my fish shop that day. He listened to his tone, like a Jingzhou accent."

"You are so sure?" Qin Huaidao asked hurriedly.
