Passed the first level, so flippant, so thought-provoking.
Li Ziye would not admit that he gave the gift.
Qin Wegna would not admit that she let it go because she accepted the gift.
At sunset, Qin Grace left. Before leaving, she told her the second test.
In one day, he created a set of sword techniques.
"Send points."
After Li Ziye heard this, he only said three words.
Even the people in Yuzhou City are spreading the word that he created his own sword technique at the age of ten, called Tai Chi. This question is for giving points.
Lao Qin also took great pains to release the water.
"Son, are you sure?"
Li Baiwan said excitedly when he saw his son's calm appearance.
"Nine times out of ten."
Li Ziye waved his hand casually and immediately went to the backyard to continue fishing.
"pass?"
In the backyard, by the lake, Zhang Sloppy was still there, closing his eyes and concentrating. He sensed Li Ziye's arrival and asked.
"pass."
Li Ziye nodded.
"Only because of your broken sword made of gold?"
This time, Zhang Sloppy was surprised. He opened his eyes and asked.
"Of course, impossible."
Li Ziye said with a smile on his face, "Yesterday, Sister Youwei gave Lao Qin an East China Sea night pearl, a piece of silkworm soft armor, and the fish intestine sword. My Lao Li spent a lot of money this time. "
"Fish Gut Sword?"
Zhang Sloppy sat up and said in surprise, "The Fish Intestine Sword is in the Li Mansion?"
"if not."
Li Ziye picked up a stone and threw it into the lake, saying, "If you don't take out some treasures to look at, how could Lao Qin let it go?"
"I admire you."
Zhang Sultan was really convinced this time and said with emotion, "Sure enough, money can make the world go round. Qin Grace, such an extraordinary person, is not immune to the world."
"We are all human beings, why bother pretending to be innocent."
Li Ziye smiled and said, "Old Qin is indeed an extraordinary person, so the price we offered is also extraordinary."
"What about the second test?" Zhang Slutty asked curiously.
"Create a set of sword techniques in one day." Li Ziye said.
"..."
Zhang Sloppy was speechless. He might have been a little suspicious just now, but now he was sure that Qin Grace was letting him go.
"I don't understand, I don't understand."
Zhang Sloppy looked at the sparkling lake in front of him and said, "Then Qin Wanna has always cherished her reputation, isn't she afraid that in the end she will accept a dandy as her disciple, and her reputation will be ruined for the rest of her life?"
"Of course she is afraid, otherwise why would she have left half of the Shang Dynasty and not made a decision yet?"
Li Ziye smiled softly and said, "The reason why I put so much effort into spreading rumors is not just for the money."
"so what?"
Zhang Slutty frowned and said, "Qin Grace will not believe that you are the legendary genius just based on rumors."
"When she came, she believed it, at least partly."
A strange smile appeared at the corner of Li Ziye's mouth, and he said, "Old Zhang, you don't understand. This is called psychological suggestion. Why are there so many foolish kings in the past dynasties? Can they really not tell the difference between right and wrong? Of course not, there are slanders from treacherous ministers and favored concubines. "Pillow style, many times, even if you don't believe it, you still believe it."
Having said this, Li Ziye picked up another stone, threw it into the lake, and said, "Actually, the question Lao Qin asked today was influenced by rumors. He created a set of sword techniques in one day. Even if It is also difficult for a master of swordsmanship to do it. Lao Qin has doubts in his heart, so he naturally wants to see if it is true. If it is true, it would be worthwhile for a peerless genius like me to be so sensible and accept him as a disciple. "
On the side, Zhang Sloppy listened to the words of the boy next to him and fell silent. After a long time, he said, "Boy, I did underestimate you before. Your strengths are not just your body and family background."
This kid's ability to guess people's hearts is really terrifying.
It wasn't Qin Grace that was letting off steam, but this guy was guiding Qin Gracefully to let off steam.
"Actually, Lao Zhang, you don't underestimate me."
Li Ziye smiled and said, "Most things in the world can be solved with money. But money can't solve it. I still have this skin. Look, my appearance is very bluffing. What's the saying? He said, "I look good, but I'm not that good. Now I'm standing on the street and say I'm a loser without any talent for cultivation. Who would believe me?"
While talking, Li Ziye stood quietly by the lake with his head held high and his chest high. The breeze blew by, his black hair flying. His eyebrows were like swords, and his eyes were like stars. He was like a stranger, like jade, and a young master like no other in the world.
Zhang was sloppy and silent. What this boy said was right. Judging from his appearance, this boy was really bluffing. Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken his eyes off him before.
Cultivators, except for those rough guys who train their bodies, are basically good-looking, especially those who are the proud ones of the immortal family. Moreover, even if their appearance is not good enough, the temperament they have accumulated over a long period of time can more than make up for it.
Just like him, when he was young, he was also a handsome young man who was popular among thousands of girls.
Zhang Sloppy took a sip of wine, feeling a little gloating in his heart.
Then Qin Grace is going to fall!
It's a real joy.
Who doesn't want to see the fairy lose his temper and the emperor get beaten?
I really can't imagine what Qin Grace's expression looked like when she learned that this kid couldn't practice martial arts?
"By the way, Lao Zhang, how have you considered the matter I told you before?" Li Ziye changed the subject and asked.
"Enter Li Mansion and become Li Mansion's minister?"
Zhang Sloppy smiled lightly and said, "Boy, the Li Mansion is indeed rich in money and has a lot of fine wine. However, old man, I am used to being free. No matter how good the place is, I can't stay for long. Besides, your Li family is mainly engaged in business and raising children." My thugs are enough to deal with most troubles, why spend a lot of money to support a bad old man like me."
"That was before."
A bit of coldness flashed in Li Ziye's calm eyes, and he said, "A tree that is as beautiful as the forest wind will destroy it. Ten years ago, the Li family was just a wealthy businessman family, and no one cared about it. However, today's Li family has everything. His wealth has been feared by many people, including the great merchant master at Fengtian Palace in the Shang Capital. The latest information is that the third prince Mu Yao has come to Yuzhou City, and he is probably looking for an opportunity to attack my Li family."
"Listening to what you said, Li Mansion is indeed in some danger. In this case, my old man must think about it carefully."
Zhang Sloppy took a sip of wine and said, "It is not a good thing to be targeted by the royal family. Your father is not young anymore, and you, the son, have nothing to do all day long. You never care about family affairs. Once your father has something Well, it’s probably hard for your sworn sister, who seems to have a pure nature, to support such a big Li family.”
"Pure nature?"
Li Ziye was startled, and then a strange look appeared on his face.
Sister Youwei?
What a perfect description!
Li's study room.
Li Baiwan looked at the account books sent by Li Youwei. After briefly reading them, he put them down.
"Well done."
Li Baiwan smiled and said, "After all these years of hard work, your business talent has surpassed that of my adoptive father."
"It's all thanks to my little brother."
Li Youwei said softly, "If he hadn't invented things like perfume, soap, and mirrors that don't exist in the world, the Li family would still be just an ordinary businessman's family."
"It's a pity that Ziyezhi is not here."
Li Baiwan sighed softly and said, "Since he was a child, he has wanted to embark on the path of martial arts and has never been interested in doing business."
"As long as my little brother wants anything, even the stars in the sky, I will pick them for him." Li Youwei said slowly.
"You are always so arrogant to him."
Li Wanwan said helplessly, "Youwei, do you know about the third prince Mu Yao coming to Yuzhou City?"
"I know." Li Youwei nodded.
"He came here probably on the orders of Emperor Shang to find out about our Li family," Li Baiwan said.
"He won't find out anything." Li Youwei said calmly.
"besides."
Li Baiwan said slowly, "Mu Yao is good at swordsmanship, and he probably also wants to take Qin Grace as his teacher."
Hearing this, Li Youwei's eyes, which had been calm just now, became filled with coldness, and she said word by word, "I will send someone to kill him, and I will make sure that it will be done cleanly, and no trace will be left."
"..."
Li Baiwan smiled bitterly and said, "Don't be so impulsive when it comes to Ziye. Ziye must have known about this matter. He didn't express his position, but he was sure that he could defeat the third prince. All you have to do is be cautious. , don’t let this person find out things we don’t want the royal family to know.”
"Yes, foster father."
Li Youwei nodded and did not argue anymore.
At night, the bright moon shines high, and the night is charming.
At the Yuelai Inn, there was a knock on the door, and then, a young man with a handsome face dressed in brocade clothes walked into Qin Grace's room.
The person who came was none other than Mu Yao, the third prince of Shang Dynasty.
Mu Yao held a wooden box in his hand. In the box, an ancient sword was displayed. The sword was in its sheath, and the cold air was looming.
"Fairy, this is my answer." Mu Yao said seriously.
"The famous sword is cold light."
Qin Wanna glanced at the ancient sword in the box, without looking at it any more, and said calmly, "The third prince's actions are indeed extraordinary. You have passed this test."
After Mu Yao heard this, although he was happy in his heart, his face remained calm, and his joy and anger were invisible.
This first test is not difficult. The key lies in the attitude of the Plum Blossom Sword Immortal.
If she is willing, even a piece of scrap metal can pass.
He is the prince of Dashang, and even the Plum Blossom Sword Immortal has to give him some face. The first level will not be too difficult.
As for his initiative to offer the famous sword Han Guang, he wanted to leave a good impression on the Plum Blossom Sword Immortal and lay the foundation for the next two tests.
"You should also know about the second test."
Qin Wanna looked at the third prince of Shang in front of her and said calmly, "Wait for me at Li Mansion before sunset tomorrow."
"Li Mansion?"
When Mu Yao heard this, his expression condensed. He wanted to say something, but he still swallowed it. He bowed and left the room immediately.
In the room, candlelight danced, and Qin Grace stood in front of the window, looking at the quiet night in Yuzhou City, with no trace of worldliness on her gorgeous face.
Behind Qin Grace, two wooden boxes were quietly placed on the table. Inside the wooden boxes, there were cold light, fish intestines, and two famous swords. It was very cold under the candlelight.
The long night passed silently.
The next day.
The sun rises and thin clouds cover the sun.
Li Mansion welcomed the most distinguished guest in history.
The third prince of the Great Shang Dynasty, Mu Yao.
"What an honor, what an honor!"
In the front hall, Li Baiwan personally received him, his face was full of joy, and his big belly was shaking with laughter.
Mu Yao looked at the richest man in the Shang Dynasty in front of him, treated him equally politely, and responded with a smile.
After chatting for a long time, Mu Yao glanced outside and said with a smile, "I wonder if your son is in the house?"
"Quinzi?"
When Li Baiwan heard this, the smile on his face became even brighter, and he said, "The dog is not talented. The common people are afraid that he will be too reckless and frighten His Highness's driver and will not let him come to the front yard. Since His Highness wants to see him, the common people will send someone right away." Call him."
After saying that, Li Wanwan stood up and shouted outside, "Go and call the young master here. Tell him that His Highness the Third Prince has summoned you."
"yes!"
Outside the lobby, the servants took orders and walked quickly to the backyard.
"The third prince wants to see me?"
In the backyard, by the lake, Li Ziye, who was fishing, heard the servant's report. The corners of his mouth curved up, and his smile was as bright as a flower blooming.
