At night.
Li Garden, inner courtyard.
In the pharmacy, the steam was steaming. Li Zi was soaking in the medicine bucket at night, and she was so hot that she grinned.
In the medicine bucket, the blood-red water looked a little seeping.
In recent days, he had been injured many times, so Li Ziye used a bottle of dragon's blood, a nearly thousand-year-old quasi-medicine king, and dozens of powerful medicines to take a comfortable medicinal bath.
Being idle is also idle, it is better to take a bath.
"Prodigal son."
Outside the room, Hongzhu was sitting on the porch, eating Qingti and saying, "Another hundreds of thousands of taels are gone."
In the room on the side, Li Youwei put down the account book in her hand and said with a smile, "It's okay. I'll make more money after I spend it. The injury on my body can heal quickly. It's worth spending more money. By the way, Hongzhu, you eat less." , your green grapes are too expensive."
Hearing this, Hongzhu couldn't help but rolled her eyes and said, "Youwei, can we not be so double-standard? I only have a few taels of silver for my Qingti."
Next to him, Bai Wangyu couldn't help but smile as he listened to the conversation between the two.
"Little Red Riding Hood, you can still laugh. When you get married, you won't have anywhere to cry."
Hongzhu glanced at someone and said with a smile, "If your monthly income exceeds one tael of silver, I will lose."
“I don’t need monthly money.”
Bai Wangyu smiled and said, "Everything we use on a daily basis will be distributed to our masters."
"Okay, you're awesome."
Hongzhu was speechless. This little red riding hood was not a human being and was not fun.
"Sister Hongzhu, come in and rub my back!"
At this time, a loud voice shouted from the room at the back.
"roll!"
Hongzhu replied angrily, "I'm not in the mood."
"mean."
In the room, Li Ziye muttered, then stood up with a grin on his face, wiped off the water on his body, put on his clothes and walked out.
Outside the room, the night was charming. Li Ziye also sat down on the stone steps, looked at the sky, and said, "The night is so beautiful, but it would be bad if there was no day and only night."
"The sky is falling, and there is a tall Confucian head holding it up. What are you afraid of?"
On the side, Hongzhu was eating green grapes and said, "I have always felt that this matter is not something that ordinary people like us can deal with."
"Actually, I think it's quite nonsense."
Li Ziye smiled and said, "Unfortunately, this is the fact. That old man, Confucian Leader, has helped us so many times. We can't be a wolf with a blind eye and just take benefits without doing anything."
"It's you, not us."
Hong Zhu corrected her seriously, "I don't even know what that old man looks like."
"As you say, mine belongs to Sister Hongzhu."
Li Ziye put his arm around the shoulder of the woman next to him and said, "Sister Hongzhu, in a few days, a beautiful girl will come to the house, but I will leave it to you to receive her."
"Azure Dragon Saint?"
Hongzhu rubbed her hands together excitedly and said, "Okay, leave it to me."
"Sister Hongzhu, you don't have any special hobbies, do you? Why are you so excited?" Li Ziye asked suspiciously.
"I want you to take care of it."
Hongzhu rolled her eyes at the former, reached out and patted the dirty hands on her shoulders, and said, "I have put Prince Wen's information in your room. The content is very rich."
"oh?"
Hearing this, Li Ziye had a strange look on his face and said, "Now that Sister Hongzhu said this, I'm interested."
After saying that, Li Ziye got up and walked towards his room.
In the room, candlelight danced, and a thick stack of files was placed on the table.
Li Ziye opened one of the volumes and read it carefully.
There are volumes of files about Prince Wen, all in great detail, recording many facts or rumors.
However, what interests Li Ziye even more are some of the grievances of the previous generation.
It is clearly recorded in the file that before Prince Wen was born, his mother-in-law had been poisoned. Although she barely managed to save her life, she still died shortly after giving birth to Prince Wen.
Prince Wen was also born weak and sickly because his mother and concubine were poisoned and had congenital deficiencies.
In addition, the dossier also contains some unconfirmed rumors that may no longer be corroborated.
The previous Shang Emperor originally intended to pass the throne to Prince Wen, but in the end, for some unknown reason, the current Shang Emperor took the throne.
It is said that when the previous emperor Shang died of illness, a palace coup took place in the palace. However, the people who were familiar with the incident died and disappeared, and everything has been buried in the years.
"It turns out that there were so many interesting things in the previous generation."
An hour later, Li Ziye read all the files with a sneer on his face. The palace was indeed a place where filth and evil spread.
However, since Prince Wen has been in the palace, he must know many secrets that ordinary people don't know.
If we have time, we'd better chat again.
Royal Palace, southwest.
Listen to Yuxuan.
It was late at night, but Mu Wenqing had not rested yet. He sat in front of the brazier and read a book seriously.
There are millions of volumes of books in the palace, many of which are unique and cannot be seen by outsiders.
As a relative of the emperor, Prince Wen was an exception. Because he lived in the palace all year round, he was specially allowed by the contemporary Shang Emperor to freely access the palace's collection of books.
"My lord, please rest early."
Hibiscus came over with a lamp, put it on the table to make the light in the room brighter, and said.
"Finish this volume."
Mu Wenqing responded and said, "Hibiscus, do you think that Professor Li is somewhat similar to me when I was young?"
"Why did the prince say this?" Mu Jin asked in confusion.
"Those eyes."
Mu Wenqing smiled and said, "I like him very much. He reminds me of myself when I was young."
"Your Majesty is not old now." Mu Jin said softly.
"old."
Mu Wenqing said while flipping through the files, "My longevity is not as long as that of ordinary people. At this age, I am already old. However, this is not important. As long as I finish what I want to do, that will be enough."
On the side, Hibiscus looked slightly gloomy after hearing what the prince in front of her said.
Outside the room, the moon moves westward, and the night gradually passes.
The next day, it was dawn.
In front of Li Garden, Li Ziye got on the carriage and rushed towards Changsun Mansion.
Not long after.
In front of Changsun Mansion, the carriage stopped.
As soon as Li Ziye got off the carriage, a servant came forward to greet him.
"Li Jiaoxi, Your Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time."
The boy bowed respectfully and said, "Please come from the house."
Li Ziye nodded and immediately walked towards Prince Zhongwu's Mansion ahead.
The main hall of the mansion.
The eldest grandson Nanqiao, eldest grandson Fengyu and Murong were sitting there, waiting for the distinguished guests to arrive.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Li is here."
Soon, the servant brought the person and said again.
"I know, let's go down first."
The eldest grandson Fengyu responded, stood up and walked out of the main hall to greet him personally.
"Your Majesty."
Outside the hall, Li Ziye bowed his hands in a polite salute, and at the same time lowered his voice and asked in a low voice, "Why is the princess here? You won't let it slip, right?"
"Professor Li, you don't have to be polite."
Changsun Fengyu stepped forward to help the former and whispered, "No, but my aunt seems to be doubting us!"
"Why are you so stupid? You can't hide this thing." Li Ziye whispered.
"Professor Li, let's talk in the hall."
The eldest grandson Fengyu said something loudly, then lowered his voice and whispered, "My aunt is really too smart. Anyway, be careful soon, she will definitely trick you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Ziye smiled and responded through gritted teeth, wishing he could give the idiot in front of him a hammer.
This guy can't handle even the smallest of things.
In the main hall, the eldest grandson Nanqiao looked at the two people whispering outside, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he believed his guess more and more.
These two people must be hiding something big from them.
Just when Li Ziye visited Changsun Mansion again.
Nanling, in front of Qinglong Sect.
Xiao Xiao packed her luggage and was about to leave. Before leaving, she looked at her mother and said seriously, "Mom, what if he refuses to give?"
"I won't leave, I insist!"
Xiao Yiren said four words with a calm expression and responded.
