Xiao Hongyu's heart suddenly tightened, and his face turned pale again.
"It seems you know." Li Su whispered.
Xiao Hongyu's heart sank to the bottom.
It's not important just to know Yue Kui's identity; what's important is that she also discovered the adultery between Yue Kui and Li Su.
"Now that you know her identity, her strength must be taken into account in the next conspiracy against me." Li Su looked at Xiao Hongyu, "But you underestimated my strength."
Xiao Hongyu was silent. She had indeed underestimated Li Su's strength. Otherwise, how could Li Su be sitting here while she became a prisoner?
"Even now, you are still looking down on me." Li Su stretched out his right hand, and the snow-scaled snake swooped into the palm of Li Su's right hand.
Xiao Hongyu took a look and understood exactly where he failed this time.
"You are next door to me, I can easily discover your whereabouts." Li Su said softly, "I can also capture you without anyone noticing.
Guess, can I see through the conspiracy you or King Shen have laid out for me at a glance? "
"As long as Xiaochan is here, Brother Su will never let you get hurt at all." Tu Xiaochan, standing behind Li Su, whispered.
Xiao Hongyu couldn't help but glance at Tu Xiaochan. At first, she thought this woman was Yue Kui disguised as Yi Rong.
"The conspiracy trap prepared by King Shen for me is probably nothing compared to the battle at Taihu Lake. Do you admit this?" Li Su looked at Xiao Hongyu.
Xiao Hongyu hummed, she had learned some truth about the Taihu battle.
"I was able to survive the battle at Taihu. Do you think the conspiracy and trap you and King Shen prepared for me can harm me?" Li Su asked.
Xiao Hongyu hesitated: "I am only responsible for detecting your whereabouts. I don't know yet how King Shen will deal with you."
"But you will definitely know, right?" Li Su asked with a smile.
Xiao Hongyu's heart skipped a beat and she didn't know how to answer.
"What's your name?" Li Su asked warmly.
Xiao Hongyu was silent for a moment, then softly said his name: "Xiao Hongyu."
"Xiao?" Li Su raised his eyebrows lightly. This was the national surname of the Daqian Dynasty.
Xiao Hongyu explained: "My name was given to me by my master, and it has nothing to do with the Daqian royal family."
"That's right." Li Su nodded and looked at Xiao Hongyu, "What's your relationship with Prince Shen?"
"My master is a disciple of Prince Shen's Mansion, and I joined Prince Shen's Mansion with my master," Xiao Hongyu said.
"I'm asking about your relationship with Prince Shen." Li Su said.
Xiao Hongyu frowned and said, "I can be considered a disciple of Prince Shen's Mansion."
"Just a retainer?" Li Su stared into Xiao Hongyu's eyes.
Xiao Hongyu glanced at Li Su and asked, "What do you want to ask?"
"Brother Su, she is still a virgin." Tu Xiaochan reminded in a low voice. She vaguely understood what Brother Su wanted to ask.
Li Su and Xiao Hongyu were both startled.
Xiao Hongyu's originally pale face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he completely understood what Li Su wanted to ask.
"Ahem..." Li Su coughed dryly and muttered, "It shouldn't be. She looks so good with her face covered. Is Prince Shen the same as Xiao Yuancheng?"
"Asshole." Xiao Hongyu cursed secretly, blushing and biting his lip in silence.
At this moment, people were fighting each other with swords and meat, and even though she was very angry in her heart, she didn't dare to say anything on her face.
"Since you are not King Shen's woman, the next thing will be easier to handle." Li Su said with a smile.
Xiao Hongyu's heart beat a little faster. He glanced at Li Su secretly and felt uneasy. Could this man be messing around?
Li Su looked at Xiao Hongyu's red cheeks and asked thoughtfully: "What is your dream?"
"Dream?" Xiao Hongyu was stunned.
"Don't you have dreams?" Li Su said with a smile.
Xiao Hongyu hesitated and said, "Why do you ask this...?"
"The ultimate goal must be...to convince you to be willing to keep my secret." Li Su said truthfully.
Xiao Hongyu was stunned and whispered: "I have never thought about dreams."
"Never thought about it?" Li Su looked at Xiao Hongyu, "Then are you happy working for King Shen?"
Xiao Hongyu frowned and said, "It's not about being happy or unhappy."
"Let me ask you another question, are you loyal to King Shen from the bottom of your heart, or are you willing to work for King Shen because of your master?"
Xiao Hongyu was silent for a while, and after a long time, he slowly said: "Because of Master."
"In other words, your work for King Shen is just a job." Li Su said.
Xiao Hongyu was noncommittal.
"Have you ever thought about becoming King Shen's most effective assistant?" Li Su asked.
Xiao Hongyu shook his head gently.
"Do it when you have something to do, and be idle when you have nothing to do?" Li Su asked.
Xiao Hongyu was stunned for a while before she understood the meaning of this sentence. She nodded lightly.
"Being a retainer is also a job." Li Su said softly, "Especially someone like you who became a retainer of Prince Shen's Mansion after following your master. In fact, you are a non-staff member."
"Non-staff personnel..." Xiao Hongyu's eyes flashed, vaguely understanding the meaning of these four words.
"As a laborer, that is, as a retainer of Prince Shen's Mansion, what is the most important rule?" Li Su asked.
Xiao Hongyu hesitated and said: "Loyalty?"
"Loyalty, that is the quality that a customer with dreams needs." Li Su said leisurely, "As for you, a mere non-staff member, the most important rule should be not to make mistakes."
"Don't make mistakes..." Xiao Hongyu paused.
Li Su continued, "You are helping King Shen because of your master. You are definitely not willing to die for King Shen."
Xiao Hongyu's eyelids twitched, and he felt a little nervous again.
"If you make a big mistake while helping King Shen, even if you survive outside, King Shen probably won't keep you when you return to Prince Shen's Mansion, right?" Li Su looked at Xiao Hongyu.
Xiao Hongyu's eyes flashed and he hummed slightly, but he felt a little disapproving in his heart.
"If you don't make mistakes, there will be no danger." Li Su said, "How can you not make mistakes? The best way is not to do anything.
If you don’t do it, you will naturally not make mistakes. "
Xiao Hongyu lowered his eyebrows, feeling a little speechless. If he didn't do anything... wasn't this just cheating?
She did not refute, always remembering the situation at this moment: I am a knife and a turtle, and I am a fish and meat.
"Just like this time, why did you end up in such a disaster?" Li Su looked at Xiao Hongyu and said with a smile, "When you found out that I had a problem, if you had done nothing, wouldn't you have been in this disaster?"
Xiao Hongyu's eyes moved slightly, and she felt that Li Su was right. If she had not informed Prince Shen of Li Su's identity at that time, naturally there would not have been the current crisis...
However, she always felt something was strange.
"When you have no dreams, the most important thing to consider is yourself." Li Su said warmly, "What is the highest level of working for others?
Get the most money and do the least. "
Xiao Hongyu: "..."
I completely understood what was wrong.
This is cheating and cheating!
"You live up to your name." Li Su complained, "Since your name is Xiao Hongyu and you want to be a salted fish without dreams, why don't you know how to fish?"
"Fishing?" Xiao Hongyu was puzzled.
"Your work in Prince Shen's Mansion was undoubtedly a failure, otherwise it would not have fallen into my hands. Do you admit this?" Li Su asked.
Xiao Hongyu's eyes moved slightly and he hummed slightly.
Regardless of the past, at this moment, she has indeed failed.
"Now, there is an opportunity for you to change your ways. Are you willing to take it?" Li Su asked with a smile.
Xiao Hongyu blinked and couldn't help but look at Li Su.
"I'll provide you with a job." Li Su looked at Xiao Hongyu, "From now on, you can help me with things and get an extra reward."
Xiao Hongyu pursed her lips and said nothing, thinking in her heart that she was trying to recruit her to surrender.
"It seems that you still have a lot of psychological burden." Li Su smiled and said leisurely, "Let me slowly unwind you."
"..."
Xiao Hongyu was speechless for a moment, feeling strange in his heart.
"When you work for me, you can fish all day long, do the minimum, or even do nothing, and get the highest reward." Li Su looked at Xiao Hongyu, "The most important thing is that this does not affect your continued position as Prince Shen's Mansion of hangers-on.
You can even tell your master or King Shen directly that I am trying to win you over and make them think that you have pretended to join me...
As a wanted criminal with a bounty of 300,000 yuan, I am probably a valuable figure even in the eyes of King Shen.
Let him think that you have successfully gained my trust, and he will definitely manage your line carefully..."
Xiao Hongyu frowned and stared at Li Su, "What can you gain from this?"
"Since you can block me here, you must know that I am going to Yuquan Mountain next. If nothing unexpected happens, I will definitely be able to become a disciple of the Golden Scale Sect." Li Su continued, "I'm sorry for King Shen for the time being. I have no interest in it, so I won't let you do anything to betray King Shen.
There is only one thing I need you to do, and you should understand what it is. "
Xiao Hongyu's heart moved, she did know.
"You are King Shen's disciple, so you naturally know what is the easiest way to keep someone secret." Li Su added.
Xiao Hongyu's eyelids twitched fiercely, and her cheeks turned white uncontrollably.
"So, are you willing to do something for me?" Li Su looked at Xiao Hongyu and asked warmly.
