Chapter 213 Scored 2 Degrees
Last time, we talked about Li Yi returning to the inn to find Cui Zhi to do some business, but he was pushed out by Jiang Hongyu, who told him to think of a way to coax her back. Can the talented Li come up with a solution? Let's read on.
Li Yi walked down the street in a daze, muttering, "No, then why did Cui Zhi get angry? Hiss, why did Xiao Ruoping insist on saying that I put the poem on her back? Damn it! I know! This Xiao Ruoping! Let me show you how I'm going to deal with you!"
During the day, Li Yi secretly followed Xiao Ruoping, and when she went to Tongxin Temple to worship Buddha, he slipped her a note that read, "I'm back. See you tonight!"
When Xiao Ruoping saw the note, she of course recognized Li Yi's handwriting. A hint of excitement flashed across her eyes, and then she regained her composure. She looked around and found nothing unusual. She then pretended nothing had happened and continued to worship Buddha and burn incense.
At night, Li Yi followed the same method as before and found Xiao Ruoping's bedroom. He knocked on the window and waited for a response from inside. Not long after, Xiao Ruoping, wearing a loose nightgown, gently opened the door, and Li Yi walked in very skillfully.
Before Xiao Ruoping could speak, Li Yi stood beside the maid and asked, "Did you drug her again?"
Xiao Ruoping lay on the bed sideways and said, "Don't worry, he's sleeping soundly, even thunder can't wake him up. I heard about the matter of Yuwang Mausoleum. Xiao Yongming doesn't seem very satisfied with you because you failed to change the prophecy and let the massacre happen. But I think he is worried about the money because he still has to pay for the reconstruction of Yuwang Mausoleum."
Xiao Ruoping told Li Yi such important news as soon as they met, which made Li Yi, who was originally here to question him, feel embarrassed to speak. He sat down on the bed and scratched his eyebrows, saying in embarrassment: "Well, let me ask you something."
Xiao Ruoping hooked Li Yi with her foot and whispered, "Go ahead and ask, come up and tell me." I have to explain here that because it was dark the whole time, Xiao Ruoping didn't notice that Li Yi's appearance had changed. She only judged from the voice that the other party was Mr. Li.
"Well, don't go up there. Let's make things clear first."
"What is it?"
"Why do you say I wrote the poem on your back?"
Xiao Ruoping chuckled and said, "Oh, are you here to question me? How come you, Li Lefu, can't even control your own maid? And you were caught by her?"
Li Yi was stunned and asked, "You knew she was not my maid, why did you deliberately make her angry?"
"Humph, the maid said so herself. It was clearly she who started the trouble, yet you come to me to accuse me. How unreasonable!"
"No, you are a princess after all, why are you fighting with her?"
"Princess? Don't you know how I, as a princess, live? I am not even as good as the children of ordinary people! They can at least do what they want, but what about me? I can't even decide my own life or death!"
Seeing Xiao Ruoping about to lose his temper, Li Yi said helplessly: "Alright, alright, it's my fault, isn't that enough? Well, there's nothing else to do, I'll take my leave first!"
"Wait! What kind of place do you think I am? One where I can come and go as I please?"
Li Yi said unhappily, "I told you to stop. I wanted to ask you for the manuscript of my poem so I could take it back and explain it to you, but you're still not done!"
"Original manuscript? Humph! Burn it!"
"Fuck! That could be my last poem, and you just burned it?"
"What else can I do? If you write it on the back of the palace map, wouldn't it be evidence if someone found it? How else can I deal with it if I don't burn it?"
Li Yi shook his head helplessly and sighed: "Forget it, just burn it. I'm not dead anyway, so let it be! Goodbye!" After saying that, he stood up and was about to leave.
Seeing this, Xiao Ruoping immediately said, "Xiao Yongming wants to harm your family!"
This sentence was like a bolt from the blue. Li Yi turned around and said coldly: "What did you say? Say it again!"
"Among the guards that Shen Yue sent to Northern Wei, there are our spies. The news they sent back said that their action this time was to frame your family. Although I don't know whether this was Xiao Yongming's plan or Shen Yue's trick, I guess this is to keep you in Southern Liang and make you hate Northern Wei!"
Li Yi turned around and left. Xiao Ruoping shouted, "It's too late for you to go back now! They took action as soon as you left Jiankang. I'm afraid they have already taken action now!"
Li Yi clenched his fists until they creaked. Xiao Ruoping stood up and said sternly, "It's no use for you to be anxious now. Why don't you think about why I told you this."
Li Yi turned around and looked at Xiao Ruoping, who said calmly: "Since you have already killed Luo Yan, why don't we cooperate again? We will help you protect your family, and you help us kill Shen Yue!"
"Shen Yue? Sure, but how are you going to protect my family?"
Xiao Ruoping patted the bed and motioned Li Yi to sit down. The latter walked to the bed but did not sit down.
Xiao Ruoping smiled and said, "We know that you and Tao Zhongwen have a close relationship, so let our people find a chance to leak the news to him and let him deal with it. This way, it will be a game between Shen Yue and Tao Zhongwen."
Hearing this, Li Yi smiled and said, "If that's the case, then there's nothing to worry about. I still understand Old Silver Coin's methods."
Xiao Ruoping asked in confusion: "Old Silver Coin? Is this the nickname you gave to Mr. Tao? Are you so confident in that Mr. Tao? You should know that Zhu Zi was defeated by Shen Yue in the past."
Li Yi sat on the bed and laughed, "Zhu Zi lost to him because he has a moral obsession, but Old Silver Coin doesn't care about that and dares to use any insidious tricks! I thought I was shameless enough, but compared to him, it's nothing!"
As he spoke, Li Yi excitedly took off his shoes, sat on the bed and told Xiao Ruoping about him and Tao Zhongwen. As he was talking, he became tired, and when he was tired, he had to lie down. When he lay down, someone came over and started to touch and search. Then, his clothes became looser and looser, but he never regretted it, and he became haggard for her.
After finishing the important task, Li Yi also entered the sage mode. He lay on the bed, stroking Xiao Ruoping's smooth back while thinking about how to kill Shen Yue.
Li Yi asked: "To kill Shen Yue, you need a careful plan. After all, he and Luo Yan were Xiao Yongming's right-hand men. Now that Luo Yan is dead, it won't be that easy to get rid of Shen Yue."
Xiao Ruoping said with a smile: "You can kill Luo Yan, so how difficult is it to kill Shen Yue? Once we find out Shen Yue's itinerary, you can kill him halfway."
Hearing this, Li Yi immediately sat up and pushed Xiao Ruoping away. He got off the bed and put on his pants while saying coldly, "Fuck, I thought you guys had some plan! So you want to use me as a gun? Ah, you want me to kill Shen Yue, what should I do?
How dare you say that! I originally thought you would still think about me. Now it seems that I still have to be on guard against you! Maybe, not only will you not save my family, but you will also want to drag me down to work for you! What should I do? After killing Shen Yue, do you want me to help you kill Xiao Yongming next?
You can use the beauty trap once or twice. Do you really think that I, Li Yi, would not even care about my life for beauty? I can tell you that I will not help you before I make sure that my three wives are okay! If anything happens to my family, I will kill Shen Yue first, and then report you to Xiao Yongming! "After saying that, he pushed the door open and left.
Li Yi couldn't go back to the inn at night, and he had no place to stay for a while. He came to the Qinhuai River for no reason. When he saw the largest flower boat in Jiankang City, Shuilongyin, he suddenly thought of Zhou Mo and Yin Miaomiao. Without Li Yi, they naturally couldn't stay in the inn anymore, so they returned to their own courtyard.
So Li Yi came to Yin Miao's courtyard. Although the lovers who depended on each other expressed their feelings, they were still at the stage of treating each other with respect. Zhou Mo slept in the shed in the courtyard, and Yin Miao slept in the house. But not everyone is like him, Li Yi.
Li Yi whispered at the door: "Brother Zhou! Brother Zhou!"
Zhou Mo jumped out of the shed when he heard the voice. Seeing Li Yi, a stranger at the door, he got into a stance ready for battle at any time.
Li Yi quickly waved his hands and said, "Brother Zhou, don't be impulsive. I am Li Yi!"
At this time, Miaomiao's voice came from the house: "Brother Zhou, I heard Li Lefu's voice. Is Li Lefu here?" Fortunately, Miaomiao couldn't see, but was extremely sensitive to sounds, otherwise Li Yi would have to explain to Zhou Mo for a while.
Li Yi walked into the room, Miaomiao and Zhou Mo sat on the bed, and he sat on the only chair in the room. Li Yi looked at the two of them, shook his head and smiled, "No, you two have made your words clear, haven't you? Why is one sleeping in the shed and the other in the room?" Miaomiao blushed when he said this, and Zhou Mo looked embarrassed.
Li Yi said playfully, "Ah! I see! The bed is too small, isn't it!" He took out two gold bars from the sack and threw them to Zhou Mo, then said, "This money is enough for you to buy a decent courtyard! Brother Zhou, with your ability, can't you support Miaomiao? Hurry up and get married, this will be my gift money."
Miaomiao took the gold ingot from Zhou Mo and handed it to Li Yi, saying seriously: "We can't take this money. Young Master has helped us a lot. We can't take your money anymore!"
Li Yi nodded and smiled: "Not bad, it seems that you have practiced the bat sound skill well. How large a range can you detect now?"
Miao Miao replied: "My spiritual power is not strong. Now I can only detect things within ten feet around me, and it's just a rough outline, not that detailed."
Li Yi touched his chin and said, "Only ten feet. I guess your control over your spiritual power is not strong enough. Let me teach you another way to cultivate your spiritual power. You have to participate in Brother Zhou's spiritual power practice. It's not tiring for men and women to work together, don't you understand? Also, how is your telepathic communication going?"
Zhou Mo scratched his head in embarrassment, and Miaomiao spoke for him: "Sir, the method of cultivating the mind that you taught is too profound. Brother Zhou failed to grasp the key points, so he did not make much progress."
Li Yi pointed at Zhou Mo, shook his head and laughed, "Don't you have to practice tranquility when practicing martial arts? Otherwise, how can you understand the meaning? Since you have practiced tranquility, you have the foundation for cultivating your mind. It must be that you have too many distracting thoughts in your mind, so you can't calm down! Miaomiao, you are also responsible for this matter!"
Miao Miao looked puzzled and asked, "What is my responsibility?"
Li Yi smiled and said, "You are so beautiful. Brother Zhou is thinking about you all the time. He only wants to guard you, protect you, and think about how to love you, so he can't calm down. Let me teach Brother Zhou the method of spiritual cultivation, and you two will practice it tonight. Brother Zhou, come with me, I will teach you alone first."
Li Yi told Zhou Mo the bedroom art that Master Jing Ling taught him, and then said to him with a sly smile: "Brother Zhou, I have helped you in every way I can. If you still can't take Miao Miao down with such a legitimate reason, then I will despise you!
Okay, I won't disturb you from practicing, I'll come another day. But I have to make it clear, next time I come, if you still sleep in the shed, don't call yourself a man anymore! I've never seen a man as cowardly as you!"
Zhou Mo smiled innocently and bowed to Li Yi again and again to express his gratitude. Li Yi waved his hand and said, "Miao Miao, I'm leaving now. You and Brother Zhou should study the cultivation method I taught you carefully!"
Miao Miao came out of the house with the gold and shouted to Li Yi, "Sir, I'm going to return the money to you!"
"I already said it's a gift, so don't forget to treat me to a drink when the time comes!"
Li Yi left Yin Miao's courtyard with a smile. Although he didn't accomplish what he wanted to do, he was still in a good mood. Seeing that it was almost dawn, he simply didn't sleep. On his way to the inn, he saw an acquaintance, but the other party didn't recognize him.
This person is Shen Lu! From his smug smile, it is not difficult to tell that Master Shen has just come down from the flower boat on the Qinhuai River. He is accompanied by only one follower, which is normal. The fewer people who know about staying overnight on a flower boat, the better.
Li Yi raised his lips and said with a smile: "I was just worrying about how to deal with Shen Yue, and you came to my door! Great, as long as you, Mr. Shen, are okay with this, then it will be easy! Otherwise, how can you know that lust is a knife above your head."
