When Li Yuan and Li Qingzhi came back, Li Ziye had been waiting in the front yard for most of the night, not daring to express his anger.
At dawn, the beautiful little maids who got up early saw the young master in the courtyard and immediately understood that the second master was coming back.
In the house, only the second young master can make the young master afraid like this.
"What trouble did the young master get into again?"
"No, nothing the young master has done recently is not famous in the capital and brings glory to the Li family."
"Then why is the young master so afraid?"
"I don't know. Let's go quickly. Be careful that the second master comes back and brings disaster to us little slaves."
"No, the second young master will be stricter with the younger one, but he is still kind to the servants. The poor young master will be scolded again."
In the front yard, the beautiful little maid hurriedly passed by without staying in the yard. Although she usually liked the young master, she still had to hide away at this time.
"That ice pimple of yours is coming back?"
Early in the morning, when Hongzhu passed by with a fruit plate, she saw Li Ziye in the front yard and curiously asked the woman next to her.
"Um."
Li Youwei nodded and said, "We should be there in a moment."
"Look at how scared this kid is. He's really hopeless." Hongzhu said with contempt on his face.
"My younger brother is indeed a little afraid of his second brother."
Li Youwei smiled and said, "No, I won't be allowed to go anywhere today. It's a pity. I can spend tens of thousands of taels in a quarter of an hour. In the face of my little brother's matter, I have no choice but to give up."
"Okay, I'm so busy every day. Let's take a break today and watch the excitement." Hongzhu said with a look of gloating on his misfortune.
"You."
Li Youwei shook her head helplessly and said, "Thankfully, I still like you so much."
"like me?"
Hongzhu looked strange and said, "That little guy doesn't have the guts."
"Second Young Master!"
Just as the two were talking, a young figure wearing a gray cloak stepped forward outside the mansion. The servants in front of the mansion immediately saluted respectfully.
"Second brother."
In the front yard, Li Ziye saw this and hurried forward to greet him with a flattering look on his face.
As the saying goes, if you stretch out your hand, you won't hit the smiling person. He has such a good attitude, so the second brother can't beat him again, right?
Li Qingzhi ignored her, walked to the front of the main hall, bowed respectfully to the woman next to Hongzhu, and said, "Sister."
"Just come back."
A gentle smile appeared on Li Youwei's soft face, and she said, "My little brother has worked very hard recently, so don't scold him anymore."
"effort?"
Li Qingzhi turned around, looked at the young man behind him, and said calmly, "Whether he tried hard or not, I have to ask him personally to find out. Li Ziye, take your sword and follow me to the backyard."
After speaking, Li Qingzhi said no more and walked towards the inner courtyard.
"Sister Youwei, save me."
Li Ziye was reluctant but did not dare not to follow. As he walked, he winked at the woman in front of the main hall and desperately asked for help.
At this moment, Li Ziye's desire to survive was overwhelming.
Li Youwei looked helpless and glanced at Li Qingzhi in front of her. She immediately looked back at her younger brother who was so frightened that he could not walk steadily. At the same time, he shook his head slightly, meaning that he had tried to persuade him but it didn't work, so he asked for more blessings.
"Pfft."
On the side, Hongzhu watched the eye contact between the siblings and couldn't help but laugh.
It's true that one thing brings another. This lawless little guy also has people who are afraid of him.
In the inner courtyard, Li Qingzhi came. In the courtyard, Zhang Sugao looked startled when he saw the person coming, and then he showed a strange look on his face.
The second son of the Li family is back, doesn't it mean that that boy is going to be in trouble?
Before his thoughts settled, Li Ziye's dawdling figure appeared in front of the inner courtyard.
"Ha ha!"
When Zhang Slutty saw this, he immediately burst into gloating laughter.
"Senior Sword Chi."
Li Qingzhi looked at the old man in the courtyard, cupped his fists and saluted, and said politely.
"You are busy, my old man is avoiding you."
Zhang Sloppy, who didn't mind the trouble, stood up with his own wine jar, glanced at Li Ziye not far away, grinned, and said, "Some people need to be taught a lesson. There is a saying, how do you say it? Jade cannot be used as a tool if it is not carved, and a tree cannot be used as a material if it is not cultivated.”
In the courtyard, when Li Ziye heard what Old Man Zhang said, he was so angry that he almost stepped forward and beat him.
This bad old man is really bad!
"Senior reminded me!"
Li Qingzhi looked at the leaving Jian Chi and responded politely, then turned to look at the young man behind him and said coldly, "Draw the sword!"
"Second brother, swords have no eyes. If we want to spar, fists and kicks will do." Li Ziye said cautiously.
"I say it again, draw! Sword!"
A dangerous light flashed in Li Qingzhi's eyes, and he spoke word by word.
"Keng!"
Li Ziye was so frightened that he didn't dare to talk nonsense and drew his sword.
"ah!"
The next moment, pitiful cries for mercy rang out in the inner courtyard, one after another, making the entire Li Yuan servants tremble with fear, and no one dared to approach the inner courtyard.
"Second brother, I don't dare anymore!"
"Second brother, I was wrong, stop fighting!"
In the west wing, Bai Wangyu couldn't help but feel his heart pounding when he heard the screams coming from the inner courtyard.
How will Brother Li be beaten?
"Amitabha."
On the side, Sanzang was chanting the Buddha's name. Although his fair face was calm, he was also a little frightened in his heart.
Donor Li often got beaten when he competed with them on weekdays, and he never screamed so miserably every time.
"No, I'm going to persuade him."
In the front yard, Li Youwei couldn't bear it as she listened to the screams that kept coming from the inner yard. She turned around and walked towards the inner yard.
"Not urgent."
Hongzhu stretched out her hand, grabbed the former, and gloated, "Your ice pimple will be measured. Besides, it would be good to let the little guy improve his memory, so as not to be lawless all day long, and no one can cure him."
I have to say, hearing the sound of that kid being beaten was really comforting!
No matter what, I had to let her listen for a while longer.
Li Youwei hesitated for a moment, sighed softly, and finally stopped.
Half an hour later, in the inner courtyard, the screams stopped, and there was no more sound.
"Fainted?"
This is what everyone in the west wing and front yard thinks.
"Go and have a look."
Hongzhu couldn't bear the curiosity in her heart and encouraged her.
"Um."
Li Youwei nodded and walked toward the inner courtyard with some worry.
The inner court.
In front of the room, a pig's head with a bruised nose and swollen face sat on the stone steps, and his appearance was almost unrecognizable.
Beside him, Li Qingzhi also sat quietly, saying nothing.
Hongzhu and Li Youwei came over and looked at the pig-headed boy in front of the stone steps, and couldn't help but laugh.
"Xiao what!"
Li Ziye opened his mouth and said unhappily.
"Oh, you can still talk, which means nothing is wrong." Hongzhu said with a smile.
Next to her, Li Youwei couldn't bear to laugh at her little brother anymore and said softly, "I'll get you some medicine."
After speaking, Li Youwei walked towards her room.
On the stone steps, Li Ziye looked at the young man beside him and asked cautiously, "Second brother, who wanted to help that monster yesterday?"
"Some scum who want to gain the power of monsters." Li Qingzhi said calmly.
"How did the second brother deal with these people?" Li Ziye asked curiously.
"Kill them all." Li Qingzhi said calmly.
"hiss."
When Li Ziye heard this, he took a deep breath.
"What, do you have any opinions?"
Li Qingzhi turned his head, looked at the young man in front of him, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked.
"No no!"
Li Ziye hurriedly shook his head and said, "I just feel it's a pity. I originally thought that the second brother could be kept alive and ask for more information about monsters."
"I asked, but I couldn't find anything."
Li Qingzhi responded, "Besides, the people I killed last night were probably just small fish and shrimps. The real people behind the scenes have not yet appeared."
"What does second brother mean?" Li Ziye asked in surprise.
"The person who colluded with the monster is probably in the imperial court, and his status is not low."
Li Qingzhi's eyes flashed and he said coldly, "Those people last night seemed to be trying their best to hide something. They would rather die than explain. It can be seen that the people behind them are definitely not ordinary people."
"People from the imperial court are colluding with monsters?"
Hearing what his second brother said, Li Ziye was shocked and said, "If this is true, it will be even more difficult to find these monsters."
"Whether it's a demon or not, the Confucian sect and the imperial court will take care of it. Our Li family only needs to do what we should do."
While talking, Li Youwei came over with a box of golden sore medicine, sat next to her younger brother, stretched out her hand and gently applied the medicine on him.
"Hiss, it hurts."
Li Ziye grinned in pain and said.
"You are too weak."
Seeing this, Li Qingzhi frowned and said, "I have given you so many resources, and even an opportunity that no one else can ask for, such as engraving a name in a heavenly book. You are only in the early stages of the second realm. I really don't know what else you can do. Only then can we become stronger.”
"Qingzhi, you are too impatient."
Li Youwei said softly, "After all, my cultivation time is too short. Moreover, my meridians were not connected before, so my cultivation speed was slower. Now that I have opened my four meridians, my speed will become faster and faster."
"Second brother, I will work hard."
On the side, Li Ziye also quickly expressed his stance and said.
"All right."
Li Qingzhi also knew not to be too harsh and reminded, "You just have to know what you are doing. Confucianism and Buddhism are not weak in cultivation. They keep good food and drink in the west chamber. They are not just for show. There is nothing to discuss. , Also, those old men in Taixue Palace are also masters of Confucianism. If you have the opportunity, please ask for more advice. Don’t waste the many cultivation resources around you."
"knew."
Li Ziye responded obediently.
After saying what needed to be said, Li Qingzhi turned around and looked at the younger brother in front of him, and said seriously, "Ziye, I have to go to Mobei for something. During my absence, Li Yuan can only leave it to you. Do you understand? Protect your eldest sister and the Li family."
"Second brother is going to Mobei?"
When Li Ziye heard this, he looked shocked and said, "Is there anything important? Why do you need the second brother to go in person?"
"A secret report came from Mobei that a large number of monsters have appeared in the Huyan tribe's territory. I must go and see what's going on."
Li Qingzhi said solemnly, "The capital of Great Shang is more than a thousand miles away from Mobei. It should be fine for the time being, but now there are traces of demons in the capital. This is not a good sign."
