dark night.
Li Garden, inner courtyard.
In the room, after hearing what the boy in front of him said, Mao Nanfeng's expression darkened and he said, "How to change?"
"That's what it means on the surface, a life for a life."
Li Ziye said calmly, "Senior, either save Hua Fengdu, or risk your life to pay for it."
Hearing this, Mao Nanfeng narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Boy, don't bully others too much. I can take Hongzhu girl away by force, but you can't stop her."
Li Ziye stepped out of the way and said, "Senior, you can try."
"Old man, this is a family matter of the Li family, don't interfere!" Hongzhu said angrily from the side.
"He asked you to pay for your life, and you still listened to him?" Mao Nanfeng said solemnly.
"Our lives were given by the Li family and the young master, and we can return them at any time."
Hongzhu looked at the old man in front of her and said sternly, "Besides, the Li family never treats people the same way. Except for Uncle Li, everyone has no privileges. If you make a mistake, you must accept the punishment."
"What about him?"
Mao Nanfeng frowned, looked at the boy beside him, and asked.
"The same goes for the young master."
Hongzhu said seriously, "Before the Li family goes on the right track, the young master will be punished the most, because he is the one who controls the direction. If the Li family's development is setback, he is responsible."
After hearing what the girl in front of him said, Mao Nanfeng frowned again. For some reason, he felt a chill on his back.
Is the Li family still a normal family?
Jiuzhou is so big, this is the first time he has heard of a family that makes such rules.
The atmosphere in the room was very heavy. Not only Mao Nanfeng, but also Huanzhu on the side were shocked by the unknown side of the Li family.
She had always felt the warmth of family affection in Li Yuan, but she never expected that there was such a cruel side.
"Boy, is there room for negotiation?" Mao Nanfeng suppressed the waves in his heart and asked.
"have."
Li Ziye looked calm and said, "It is a rule to sacrifice one's life for one's life. If something happens to Hua Fengdu, Hongzhu cannot escape the blame. Without punishment, it will be difficult to convince the public. However, if Senior Nan Wang can save Hua Fengdu, Hongzhu will be held responsible. But we won’t pursue it for now.”
"I can try my best," Mao Nanfeng said seriously.
"It's not about trying your best, it's about doing it."
Li Ziye said seriously, "You only have one chance. Once you fail, there is no chance of change."
"What state is he in now?" Mao Nanfeng asked with his eyes flashing.
"The cold poison sealed body relies on a sword energy to maintain life." Li Ziye replied.
"Give me some time, I will definitely think of a solution." Mao Nanfeng said with a thoughtful look on his face.
"How long?" Li Ziye asked.
"One year."
Mao Nanfeng responded, "This matter is a bit tricky. I need to think about it carefully."
"Can."
Li Ziye nodded, looked at Hongzhu aside, and said calmly, "Hongzhu, since Senior Nan Wang has vouched for you, your punishment will be postponed for one year. Within one year, if you save Hua Fengdu, the punishment will be It’s exempt.”
"Thank you, young master."
Hongzhu bowed respectfully and responded.
"Sister Hongzhu, don't blame me."
After talking about the business, Li Ziye's cold expression immediately softened a lot and he said softly.
"I see."
A smile appeared on Hongzhu's face, she opened her arms and said, "Xiao Ziye, welcome back."
Li Ziye took a step forward, hugged Hongzhu into his arms, his eyes full of longing, and said, "It feels so good to be home."
"ill."
Next to him, Mao Nanfeng saw the kid in front of him turning his face faster than flipping through a book, and couldn't help but yelled, "They all say that I am a madman, but I see, you are the madman."
"Senior has given too much praise."
Li Ziye let go of Hongzhu, grinned, and said, "Senior, I'm back with a gift for you."
"A gift? What gift?"
When Mao Nanfeng heard this, his face immediately showed excitement. He immediately put the unhappiness behind him and asked.
"Demon blood."
Li Ziye took out a bunch of jade bottles from his arms and said, "There are black and red ones. Save the red ones. There is no shortage of black ones. When you use them, you can go to the Confucian sect to ask for them. They have arrested them in the past two years." A lot of black-blooded monsters.”
"Have you gone to the Far North?"
Mao Nanfeng said in surprise, "Did you ask anything?"
"The demon goddess went into seclusion and only asked about part of the matter. Thousands of years ago, the Taoist sect did ask for a large amount of demon blood from the demon clan."
Li Ziye replied, "The creation of Netherland must be related to demon blood. However, the specific method is not clear. Senior Nan Wang needs to explore it himself."
"Catch another black-blooded Hades for me."
Mao Nanfeng took the jade bottle and said, "Otherwise, the experimental materials may not be enough."
"talk later."
Li Ziye responded casually, "I've been busy lately and don't have time."
"Not urgent."
Mao Nanfeng was not in a hurry and said, "These demon blood and the blood of Huanzhu Girl are enough for me to study for a period of time. As a bonus, I may have given it to you before, so you can figure it out."
"Okay, go catch it when you have time."
Li Ziye responded, looked at Hongzhu aside, and asked, "Sister Hongzhu, where is Mu Bai now?"
"Old man, please go out, we have to talk about business." Hongzhu glanced at someone and said.
"It's so mysterious, I don't like to hear it yet."
Mao Nanfeng couldn't help but mumbled when he saw the girl in front of him showing no conscience and turned around and left the room.
Hongzhu stepped forward and closed the door, then turned around and said seriously, "The person has been rescued and is currently recovering from his injuries. The Fourth Highness is protected by Xuan Ming and Chi Ying, so there is no need to worry about his safety."
"That's good."
Hearing this, Li Ziye breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Where are Miss Youwei and Little Red Riding Hood, how are they doing?"
"Already on the way back."
Hongzhu answered truthfully, "I should be able to return to the Central Plains in the next few days."
"Okay, we are almost here. We will all go back to Yuzhou City during this New Year's Day."
Li Ziye thought for a while and said, "You all go together. If you haven't paid New Year greetings to Lao Li for so many years, Lao Li has been supporting you."
"Busy."
Hongzhu said helplessly, "Try your best."
"Brother, should I go too?"
On the side, Huan Zhu asked with a bit of expectation on his face.
"Of course."
Li Ziye said with a smile, "You haven't received the meeting gift yet. When the time comes, say a few nice words. Old Li has a soft ear and is easy to fool."
Huanzhu heard his brother's words, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter.
"Okay, I can't stay here any longer for fear of being discovered."
Li Ziye looked at the two people in front of him and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work these days."
"It's not hard, let's go quickly. You are now a new member of the imperial court, and many people are watching you." Hongzhu reminded.
"Um."
Li Ziye nodded without saying another word, waved his hand, and turned to leave.
At night, Li Ziye's figure flashed past and disappeared at the end of the night.
in the room.
Huanzhu looked at his brother's retreating back, looked at Hongzhu beside him, and said softly, "Sister Hongzhu, my brother looked so scary just now."
"I have to, because he is the one who sets the rules of the Li family and must do things according to the rules." Hongzhu sighed softly.
"Just now, if King Nan doesn't show up, will my brother really punish you, Sister Hongzhu?" Huanzhu asked seriously.
"meeting."
Hongzhu nodded and said, "However, an oversight may not lead to death. What Xiao Ziye said was for my cheap master. After all, the only person who can save Hua Fengdu now is the old man."
