"brush!"
An Zhiyi stood in front of Li Yi desperately, frowning her eyebrows, and said in an unhappy tone, "Suoyi, I'm willing to admit defeat, are you going to break your promise and gain weight?"
Suo Yi's face was full of anger, he glared at Li Yi fiercely, and said angrily: "But I don't obey me, he...he is cheating, he just used some dirty tricks to defeat me, if you don't believe me, let's fight again Even if I bite him with my teeth, I will bite him to death!"
When everyone heard this, they all looked sideways. Suo Yi was still too young and became angry after losing the game.
At this time, Li Yi narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "No matter what the means, have you already admitted defeat? A dignified seven-foot man, if you lose, you lose. What's the big deal? You can find your place again next time. Only then will you lose." It’s the skill!”
"If that's all you have, you'd better not go to Mr. Sun's mansion to avoid humiliating yourself."
"You!" Suo Yi's face changed, and he was full of dissatisfaction, but he refused to back down. He snorted coldly: "Do you dare to fight me again? This time we will use weapons and let Mr. An see who is the best." It’s the strongest!”
Li Yi shook his head, "If you can't afford to lose, just say so!"
"What, you...what did you say?" Suo Yi's expression changed, and he was very angry.
"Do you dare to make a bet with me?" Li Yi thought and was ready to take this opportunity to stimulate Suo Yi's competitive spirit.
"What bet?" Suo Yi said indifferently.
"I can give you a chance to challenge me, but the premise is that you can prove that you are very capable." Li Yi smiled meaningfully,
"How to prove it?" Suoyi asked eagerly.
Li Yi knew that Suo Yi had fallen into the trap, and immediately followed the temptation: "I will give you a team of troops. If you can transport the grain and grass to Dongshan Qingzhou City intact, I will not only promise to compete with you again, but also I’ll give you a military officer position.”
"Hmph, who do you think you are? Do you think you are the emperor? Give me a military officer position." Suo Yi dismissed it.
Cao Qingyan and others on the side were very dissatisfied with Suo Yi's actions and repeatedly contradicted His Majesty. If Li Yi hadn't stopped him, they would have taken action long ago.
"What, you don't dare?" Li Yi deliberately mocked him.
"I can not!"
When Suo Yi heard this, his lungs were about to explode. He said proudly: "I, Suo Yi, are not afraid of heaven or earth. Transporting grain is just a trivial matter."
Li Yi suppressed his laughter and nodded: "Okay, tomorrow you go to Beijing Camp to report to Cao Fengyang, and he will arrange it for you."
"Hmph, just wait for me. I will take care of you when I come back from Dongshan!" Suo Yi looked at Li Yi coldly, then bowed to An Zhiyi and left directly. He lost to Li Yi today. It's such a shame and humiliation that I have no shame to stay any longer.
An Zhiyi looked at his back and couldn't help but shake her head.
On the other hand, Xu Hou looked at Li Yi with admiration. He was even more convinced that Li Yi was no ordinary person. Even under Sun Tingzong, he was still a top figure.
His actions just now seemed like he acted out of will, but in fact he grasped the overall situation, grasped Suoyi easily, and his methods and scheming were all unfathomable.
"Two of you, are you willing to join the imperial court and contribute to the Dafeng Dynasty?" Li Yi's eyes fell on Xu Hou and Lu Mu who were standing aside.
Both of them bowed in unison, "Lord Sun Tingzong's name of loyalty resounds throughout the wind. I am lucky enough to follow Lord Sun in this life, and I will be lucky in three lifetimes. The two of us are willing to swear allegiance to Lord Sun to the death and do our best for the Dafeng Dynasty."
Li Yi smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to say, whether he was happy or sad.
These two people kept saying they were loyal to Sun Tingzong, but as for themselves, the current emperor, they didn't even mention it. How does this show their hearts?
At this time, Xu Hou's wise eyes flashed, and he asked with interest: "Master Li Yi, he has extraordinary bearing and great ambition. He is by no means an ordinary person. May I ask who exactly Mr. Li Yi is?"
Not only him, but also An Zhiyi also cast curious eyes. Li Yi was very outstanding, but also very mysterious. Even she didn't know his true identity.
For example, Li Yi kept saying that she was a student of Sun Tingzong, but she had long known that none of the students of Sun Tingzong had the surname Li.
Li Yi was also embarrassed when he was asked. He thought to himself that this Xu Hou really had some tricks. Could it be that he had already guessed his identity?
No, even if you guess it, you can never admit it!
My identity is extremely valuable to ordinary people, but it is a bit disgusting to these scholars.
His reputation had already been ruined on the streets. If the aspiring scholar was willing to join the imperial court, if he knew that he was the emperor, these two people would probably run away with their buckets overnight.
"It's not worth mentioning. It's really not worth mentioning." Li Yi laughed and joked: "I am just a worshiper in Lord Sun's house. Because I am a student of Sun Tingzong, I gave you an errand."
worship? Xu Hou, who is the person, rolled his eyes and immediately guessed that this was an excuse, and continued to ask: "Master Li Yi, do you not trust me? Or are you wary of us?"
Hearing this, Li Yi felt a little embarrassed. If he continued, it might be difficult to end.
An Zhiyi saw Li Yi's embarrassment and immediately stood up to help him. She said gently: "You two, try my tea first. This is Qingming. I picked it myself at the top of Yunwai Mountain. Please Taste one or two.”
"Oh, really? Thank you Mr. An." Xu Hou quickly looked away and picked up the tea to taste it carefully.
Li Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and looked at An Zhiyi gratefully. Looking at the quiet and elegant An Zhiyi, his whole body suddenly felt like a spring breeze, thanks to her just resolving his embarrassment.
No wonder such a perfect woman is revered by scholars all over the world.
As for Xu Hou, Suo Yi and Lu Mu, he also had plans. Xu Hou was quick-thinking and as resourceful as a fox. He could take over as the Minister of Rites and Yushitai and take charge of the officials inside and outside the court.
As for now, we can go to the capital camp and follow Cao Fengyang south to put down the rebellion this time.
Suoyi is naturally a military commander. This time, he is the best choice for the army. Let him hone his character first.
For Lumu, he had bigger ideas.
He has always wanted to establish the Academy of Sciences of the Gale Dynasty. Technology is the primary productive force. This sentence has a profound impact on him.
Nowadays, the Dafeng Dynasty is suffering from internal and external troubles. Only wealth and strength can solve this dilemma, and then it can only rely on scientific and technological talents like Lu Mu.
The first president of the Academy of Sciences in the Dafeng Dynasty must be Lu Mu.
Now, the post of Minister of the Ministry of Industry can be temporarily replaced.
It just so happened that we could take this opportunity to let him go to the Supervision and Manufacturing Office to familiarize himself with it and make some modifications to the new fire gun. It might have unexpected effects.
Li Yi gave the two of them the posts of Corporal Li Xian and Suo Yi, and arranged for them to report on them.
The afterglow of the setting sun is like a golden ocean splashing on the earth, rippling leisurely on the microwave of the lake, reflecting the light of the lake and soaking the peach willows.
Li Yi raised his head and glanced at An Zhiyi, his heart trembling slightly.
That stunningly beautiful face is stained with the afterglow of the setting sun, with silky hair on the temples and picturesque eyebrows. She is sipping tea lightly, just like the picture of an ancient maid tasting tea.
"By the way, after what happened last time, Mr. Yan didn't give you any trouble, right?" Li Yi suddenly asked.
An Zhiyi shook her head and did not answer, but her eyes had revealed everything, and she must have been looking for him.
"It doesn't matter. You can tell them my name and don't let them embarrass you."
She smiled softly, "Although I am a woman, I also know right from wrong. How can I betray you if you save me?"
Li Yi nodded, his heart full of admiration, knowing how to repay kindness, and knowing right from wrong. Such a woman is really rare!
"He's just a turtle, but I'm not afraid of him!"
An Zhiyi burst out laughing, "Li Yi, you'd better be careful. Mr. Sun is not in the capital either. No one can protect you. Yan Mansion is not as simple as you think."
She hesitated to speak, but the implication was obvious.
Li Yi smiled proudly and said domineeringly, "I, Li Yi, stand upright among all the heroes in the world."
"You must know that the young man's ambition to reach the clouds was once promised to be the best in the world!"
An Zhiyi was shocked again, her pretty face was slightly red, her chest was undulating, her beautiful eyes were full of surprise, not only because of Li Yi's fearless tyranny, but also because of the famous saying: "Young Sun Qingyun Zhi, once promised to be the best in the world" It was first-class, which even surprised her.
The man in front of her had already caused different ripples in her heart.
An inexplicable feeling.
"After seeing you for a long journey, we must say goodbye eventually. Mr. Li Yi, please go slowly." An Zhiyi's words are always gentle and pleasant, full of poetry and calligraphy.
Li Yi smiled and said, "Thank you for what happened today. By the way, this gift is for you."
He took out a brocade box from his arms, and without waiting for An Zhiyi to refuse, he put it directly into her hand, took Cao Qingyan and they turned around and disappeared into the garden of the Imperial College.
An Zhiyi's beautiful and fair cheeks had a faint blush. When she opened the brocade box, she was immediately startled.
She frowned lightly, but suddenly relaxed, "Master Li Yi, he...how could he give me this?"
It was a hairpin, exquisitely made, a first-class royal tribute, and worth a lot of money.
But the problem is that in the Gale Dynasty, only people who love each other, or couples, can give each other such things.
But Li Yigang just came to Dafeng Dynasty and didn't know the customs here at all. He just wanted to thank An Zhiyi.
Even the hairpin was randomly found by Ye Qingluan.
An Zhiyi blushed and was at a loss. At this moment, the maid Dayao came over and snatched the brocade box, "Wow, what a beautiful hairpin!"
"Take it here and don't move it!"
"Miss, tell me, that young master gave this to you?"
"If I don't tell you, give it to me!"
"Hey, no, why does this hairpin have a fragrance? It seems like it has been worn by someone?"
An Zhiyi's pretty face changed slightly. After confirming again and again, she couldn't help but feel speechless. She was even more angry with Li Yi. She had been brooding about the incident at the brothel river last time. Today, this hairpin has been given to many women. .
Thinking of this, her good impression of Li Yi disappeared again, and she labeled him a "disciple".
As for Li Yi, he had no idea about this. On the way to the Supervision Office, he sneezed more than a dozen times in a row, "Is this that turtle scolding me?"
