Chapter 21
Li Ye immediately went to find Zhang Xiaopang and Xiao Huangmao, and Wujilang went to Guangyuntan outside the city with his father before dawn.

Li Ye then told his two friends about Hu Jing's plan to deal with him. Zhang Xiaopang jumped up immediately and said angrily, "Is he tired of playing wild on our territory?"

Little Huangmao thought for a while and said, "Brother can actually go to Qiao Guanshi and let Qiao Guanshi tell the prince. If the surname is Hu, he won't dare to mess around."

Li Ye sneered and said, "If he doesn't come, wouldn't it be cheaper for him?"

Seeing Li Ye's confidence, Zhang Xiaopang immediately became more courageous, and quickly asked, "What's Lao Li thinking?"

"I think, if he buys a murderer to deal with me, the murderer will definitely step on the spot first, and the door will be closed when it gets dark. If he can't come at night, then there will only be daytime, either today or tomorrow. We have to pay attention."

…………

At dusk, a lame man came, about 40 years old, limping, carrying an empty pannier. After asking all the way, he found Li Ye's home.

The middle-aged cripple walked around Li Ye's house, picked up a small wooden stick and threw it far away on the roof, turned around and left, but he didn't know that his every move had already been watched by Li Ye .

Li Ye went to Qiao Bin immediately, and of course asked Qiao Xingzhong to help, otherwise this good show would not be able to continue.

…………

In the evening, Qiao Xingzhong was shocked when he heard his son's report. Hu Jing, a bastard, actually wanted to attack Li Ye, which was really in line with his style of doing things.

"Then what does Li Ye mean? Does he want me to tell the prince?"

"No! He said this is an opportunity, his opportunity, and father's opportunity!"

Qiao Bin told Qiao Xingzhong about Li Ye's plan, and Qiao Xingzhong was stunned. Is this still a 14-year-old boy?The means are so sophisticated!

He thought about it for a while, and it really was his chance to kill Hu San as an enemy, he rubbed his hands, and couldn't help but excitedly said: "Tell me again, slowly, I want to listen to it in detail! "

…………

In a small tavern near the palace, the middle-aged lame man said to the steward Hu Jing: "I will strike before the door of the workshop is closed, and then I will leave the workshop quickly, but at that time, there will be people at home, and people may die."

Hu Jing sneered, "The people who live in Yonghefang are poor people, they will die when they die, who will take them to heart."

The lame man said slowly: "You can't say that. I have a criminal record in the government. Once I am caught by the government, I may die. Let me make it clear to you. If someone is killed, fifty guan is not enough. You have to If you pay me another hundred guan, I will have to hide for a few months."

"One hundred guan is too much, at most sixty guan!"

The cripple shook his head, "One hundred pennies, not one penny less, otherwise you will hire someone else!"

Hu Jing looked at him for a while, and finally agreed, "It's a deal, if someone dies, I'll give you another hundred guan!"

Hu Jing took out 30 taels of silver and gave it to him, "This is a deposit, and I will give you the rest after the matter is completed!"

…………

The next day, Li Ye called a few friends again, and this time Wujilang was also there. His father's new boat had just been painted with tung oil, and it was going to dry for two days. He was fine for the time being, so he went home to rest.

"Generally, the time to step on the spot is the time when he strikes. He should strike when it's just getting dark, and then leave quickly, so he will definitely appear in the evening."

"Brother, what do you think he will do?" Xiao Huangmao asked worriedly.

"It's impossible to kill, it's easy to get caught, I guess he will set fire and throw the torch on the roof of my house!"

Li Ye clearly remembered that the cripple threw the twig on the roof of his house, that should be his plan.

Zhang Xiaopang asked: "Then when will we arrest people?"

"Everyone, don't startle the snake. You must wait for me. I will throw him down first, and everyone will come to help. If he wants to set the fire, let him go. Don't worry!"

Everyone nodded one after another, and they only followed Li Ye's lead.

Everyone went home, at this time Wuji Lang took out three taels of silver, handed it to Li Ye and said: "This is the three pennies I shared last time. I didn't give it to my family, I kept it for myself. I burned the house and repaired it. Take this bit of money, big brother!"

Li Ye took the money, put it back into his pocket, and said with a smile, "You look down on me! Will I have no money to repair the house?"

"No! No! No! It's just my wish!"

"I've accepted the favor, but you keep the money yourself. We're brothers. Let's miss it!"

Wujilang has been a little brother behind Li Ye since he was three years old, and the two grew up together. Although he is taciturn, he has always followed Li Ye.

He sighed and said, "I'm going to board the ship tomorrow, and I'm going to Shanzhou on the first trip. It takes more than a month to go back and forth. Tell Xia Pei for me that I can't practice martial arts with him. I'm really sorry!"

Li Ye patted him on the shoulder, "I was bullied outside, come back and tell me, I will stand up for you!"

Wujilang was moved in his heart, he nodded silently, clasped his fists in salute, turned around and went home.

Li Ye also hurried home. The biggest problem in his whole plan was how to persuade his mother to leave temporarily and take away the valuables.

After much deliberation, there was no other way but to tell the truth. With Pei Sanniang's shrewdness, she couldn't hide this matter from her at all.

In the room, Li Ye told Pei Sanniang all about the danger he was about to encounter and his countermeasures. Pei Sanniang raised her brows and said angrily, "You dare to harm my son, I will smash him to death with a hammer."

"Mom! Just calm down first, okay?"

Li Ye said helplessly, "Didn't you listen to the response plan I just said?"

Pei Sanniang shook her head, "A dignitary like King Si Ning only protects his weaknesses, he doesn't care about the lives of ordinary people like us!"

"Hu Jing is not yet at the level where King Si Ning protects his shortcomings. On the contrary, King Si Ning still hates him. If the princess hadn't protected him, he would have been driven away. This time Hu Jing ruined the reputation of King Si Ning. King Si Ning will never spare him!"

"You take it for granted, right?"

"Mother, Manager Qiao told me this."

Pei Sanniang said coldly: "I have been used by others, and I don't know it yet!"

"It's just mutual use!"

At this time, Aunt Mu said from the side: "San Niang, just listen to Ah Ye this time! If the wild dogs are not killed, they will continue to bite people."

It made sense for Pei Sanniang to think about it. If Hu San, a wild dog, was not killed, he would definitely continue to harm his son, and it was impossible to guard against.

"Okay! Just follow Ah Ye's method, these shabby houses will be abandoned by my old lady!"

Seeing that his mother agreed, Li Ye was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "I promise to build three new tile-roofed houses for my mother!"

"Whether you want to fix the tile-roofed houses or not is the next thing to do, but mother should check you carefully. Are you my son? Or is there some demon possessing my son? When did that idiot become so smart?"

Li Ye laughed dryly and said, "Mother! Even if possessed, it's a god from the sky, okay? How could it be a demon?"

Pei Sanniang curled her lips, "Are you still a god? The gods can't think of such a vicious idea!"

Of course, Pei Sanniang was just talking casually, the stupid son was opened with a stick, and she was too happy to be happy.

She quickly ordered: "Stop talking nonsense, if you want to move, help me pack up quickly!"
