Wei Bingyan didn't see Li Yuyan's earnest look, she returned home without looking back.

After Li Yuyan and Guan Hualang entered the room, they immediately went to the study room outside. Lord Li Debing was already waiting for them behind the desk. When he saw them come in, he waved his hand and asked the servants beside him to retreat.

"Dad." Li Yuyan bowed.

Guan Hualang followed with a smile and bowed respectfully, "Uncle, we will live up to your trust and get everything done."

The adult sitting directly behind the desk had a solemn expression on his face, not caring about chatting or laughing. He had a beard on his face, slightly dark skin, a pair of sparkling eyes, a sturdy body, and an invisible aura of awe-inspiring majesty. He did not have the intuitive feeling of being well-mannered like a scholar.

Li Yuyan looks a bit like Li Debing, but his face is more handsome. Li Debing's invisible aura is completely hidden, while Li Yuyan is relatively more restrained, silent and unnoticeable.

"What did you find out?" Li Debing asked intently, his voice a little hoarse.

"Wei Zhong appears to be going to Jinyun City to work for the prince, but in fact, Mr. Tang who came with him has been going in and out of the villa of Mr. Pan of Fudian Silver Bank recently. This must be Wei Zhong's real purpose of going to Jinyun City!" Li Yuyan said.

Li Debing frowned, "Fudian Bank? The prince is stretching his hand so far!"

Fudian Silver Bank was the most prominent silver bank in the Tang Dynasty, with branches all over the country. If the prince could completely control Fudian Silver Bank, it would be equivalent to completely controlling half of the silver in the vast country.

"Boss Pan is a smart man. He won't necessarily join the prince's faction at all costs," said Li Yuyan.

It seems like Li Debing turns a deaf ear to anyone who tries to win him over. It's not that he doesn't understand the overall situation, but now is not the time for him to take a position. As long as Your Majesty is in power for one day, he will be completely loyal to Your Majesty.

"Wei Zhong's daughter is here again today?" Li Debing had small bumps on his head and was a little surprised about the disciple that his wife often talked about recently.

Guan Hualang said hurriedly: "Uncle, I have repeatedly investigated and found that Wei Zhong has no idea that Junior Sister has accepted Aunt as her master, and what he is doing outside has nothing to do with Junior Sister."

"Wei Bingyan took the initiative to approach her mother at that time, and her motives were unclear." Li Yuyan said calmly.

"That's because my junior sister wanted to ask my aunt to treat her mother." Guan Hualang looked at Li Yuyan and said unhappily.

Li Debing waved his hand and said, "I will talk to your mother about this matter. There is no need to say more. Wei Zhong is hosting a banquet at home today, but Mr. Tang is nowhere to be found. I think he is meeting Boss Pan again. Yuyan, go and test Boss Pan's opinion and see what he thinks."

"Dad, do we need to report this matter to the emperor?" Li Yuyan asked softly.

"It's useless to report it. There's no solid evidence. On the contrary, it will make Your Majesty suspicious." Li Debing said, "Just stand by and watch. Wei Zhong can do whatever he wants in Jinyun, but don't violate my bottom line."

Li Yuyan's face was frozen, "Wei Zhong has not yet decided to give up trying to win you over after careful consideration."

"It's his business if he doesn't want to give up. All right, you guys go back and rest first. I'll ask you to do something tomorrow." Li Debing sent the two men away. After a pause, he shouted to Guan Hualang, "Don't go out and cause trouble again. If you cause another Forbidden City robbery, I'll throw you back to your father."

Guan Hualang immediately said sternly, "Don't worry, uncle, I will definitely not cause any more trouble."

Li Debing's lips gradually curled up, "Go back!"

Guan Hualang followed Li Yuyan out and punched her hard, "Why don't you speak up for the little sister? What her father does has nothing to do with her. Besides, she is already your sister. Do you still want to treat her as your mortal enemy?"

"I just feel suspicious that her purpose of approaching my mother is not so pure." Li Yuyan heard the force of the punch in front of him, and had already turned over to avoid Guan Hualang's tight fist, and exchanged two moves with him in a ridiculous manner.

"You are a person with very profound thoughts. Just now you think that others are just like you, with ulterior motives." Guan Hualang felt more and more itchy as he beat me. He hadn't moved his meridians for a long time.

Li Yuyan said: "Not everyone is as clean as you. Wei Bingyan is a person with many thoughts."

Guan Hualang clenched his fists and stared at Li Yuyan angrily, "Why do I feel like you are calling me stupid?"

"No, I said you are very pure and very smart." Li Yuyan said indifferently, turned around and continued to walk towards his study.

"Is that what you mean?" Guan Hualang asked loudly, catching up with Li Yuyan.

In the other room, after Li Debing finished some official work in the study, he returned to the inner courtyard. Seeing his wife leaning on the beautiful bed to rest her feet, he walked in lightly and waved his hand for the maids in the room to leave.

Mrs. Li had already woken up when Li Debing approached her. Looking at her husband's resolute face, she smiled softly, "Why did you come back so early today?"

"I came back because I'm not busy. You seem very tired these days. What have you been doing?" Li Debing sat down beside her, pretending not to know.

"I've been idle for too long, and I'm tired of being busy with some things." Mrs. Li smiled, but her tone was very excited. "Bingyan is really very smart. No matter how complicated the matter is, I only need to tell her once and she will understand it. She is actually a genius in medical science."

Li Debing looked at her with a smile, "Is the girl from the Wei family really as mysterious as you said?"

"I made the right choice in choosing this disciple. Apart from her, no one else is suitable to be my successor," said Mrs. Li.

"Hua Xiao, it's hard to say whether this young lady from the Wei family is approaching you on purpose. You shouldn't take her too seriously, so as to avoid being helpless in the future." Li Debing hesitated for a while and spoke in a roundabout way with as much anger as possible.

Mrs. Li angrily said, "Do you think she was instigated by her father to get close to me on purpose and then win over our Li family?

Don't worry, I have already patiently tested her. She is not of the same kind as her father, and... when I first met her, she didn't recognize me, and the words she spoke were not like what her father taught her."

"What?" Li Debing asked.

Madam Li told Li Debing that she had accidentally heard Wei Bingyan and Xiao chatting in the side room of the imperial court at that time, and she solemnly informed him, "...which young lady who lives in seclusion can have such insight as her? Even her father may not be as insightful as she is. How can she help her father when she said such things?"

"I didn't expect that a little girl like her would have such an opinion." Li Debing was also very surprised. She explained the situation of each prince in a comprehensive way better than him, and he could tell that such a little girl was not that simple.

"Men's affairs have nothing to do with us women, and I'm just accepting a disciple." Mrs. Li knew what her husband was worried about. She had hesitated in the past, but Bingyan had such good talents that she was reluctant to let go.

Even if the Li family and the Wei family have disagreements in the future, she will find a way to get Bingyan out of the Wei family!

"Well, I actually hope that Wei Zhong won't go down a dead end!" Li Debing said calmly.
