Li Yan's figure flashed, shaking his whisk, blocking Ying Yi's path.
"Our family has said that you can't leave until you tell the person behind you."
"Even if you are a member of the Shadow Guard, even if you have a death-free gold medal, you can't leave."
"Then let me see what Eunuch Li is capable of."
Ying Yi also got angry.
Li Yan was just a father-in-law, so how could he be trusted by His Majesty? He even told him about his search for the princess.
Or maybe it was Ying Yi's inner jealousy that made her feel competitive.
He must compete with Li Yan.
Therefore, all his moves were extremely sharp and aimed at Li Yan's vital points.
However, Li Yan didn't panic, shook the whisk, and neutralized all her attacks.
It's just...a bit of a waste.
Unexpectedly, after a fierce battle, the feather whisk has been shaved off by the soft sword, turning it into a bare rod.
Fortunately, the bare pole is made of iron and can be bumped against the soft sword.
After dozens of moves, there was no winner.
Li Yan, on the other hand, began to breathe heavily because of his old age, and his physical strength was obviously unable to keep up.
Looking at Yingyi again, he becomes more and more brave as he fights, and his moves become more and more powerful.
Forced, Li Yan could only parry but could not fight back.
bass!
Ying Yi's soft sword once again touched the whisk handle.
Li Yan couldn't hold it, and the fly whisk flew away.
"No fight, no fight, you are just a little girl, bullying our elderly family."
Li Yan took a few steps back. He was so tired that he collapsed on the ground.
"Are you still forcing me to stay?"
Ying Yi held the soft sword and asked coldly.
"No more, no more."
Li Yan waved his hand.
I stayed there before because I thought there might be Chen Tong behind Ying Yi.
But after this fight, Li Yan finally figured out that Ying Yi didn't really kill him.
Although the moves may seem fatal, they only go so far.
Otherwise, his whisk would not be able to stop other people's soft swords.
Cutting off the hair is already showing mercy.
If it was someone sent by Chen Tong, he might have turned into a corpse by now.
So when faced with Ying Yi's question, Li Yan felt bitter, "Even if our family wants to stay, we can't keep you."
"But Yingyi, why can't you tell us who the person behind you is?"
"What are you worried about?"
"The other party has no intention of becoming an official."
Ying Yiyi said: "If you really know the other person's name, I'm afraid I'll have to recommend him to His Majesty again."
"Wouldn't it cause a lot of trouble for others?"
"You have no intention of becoming an official, and you have a lot of resourcefulness. Could it be Mr. Zhao Pingzhao, the Immortal Lord of Penglai from Xiping, Yun'an County, Donghai County?"
Li Yan asked casually.
"how do you know?"
Yingyi almost said the last half of the sentence, but fortunately he changed his words in time, "Don't make random guesses, what is Penglai Immortal Lord? What is Zhao Ping? I don't know him at all."
"As you wish."
Li Yan didn't force it.
From Ying Yi's performance, he was already sure that the person behind Ying Yi was Zhao Ping.
And he himself can deduce that they are almost inseparable.
His Majesty personally went to Yuzhou to suppress the bandits, but the Manchu Communist Party did not last long.
As soon as Ying got the news, she rushed here from her residence.
This shows that the distance is not too far.
It should be Yuzhou, or several states surrounding Yuzhou.
To the north in Jizhou, many cities have fallen into the hands of the enemy. It is impossible for Yingyi to find the princess there.
Otherwise, he would have been recalled by His Majesty long ago.
The territory has become the territory of the enemy country. Even if there is a princess, it will be easy for them to be found.
To the west, Yongzhou.
Even more impossible.
The imperial city is being built in Yongzhou. If there are such capable people with lofty ideals, I am afraid they will not be able to escape from His Majesty's hands.
He had been summoned to the palace a long time ago and worked for the royal family.
To the south, it is still the land of Yuzhou.
But if Yuzhou really has such talents, Chen Tong will not let Chen Tong toss Yuzhou into this state.
The other party could tell that Chen Tong was rebellious and guessed that His Majesty was in danger, so he asked Ying Yi to deliver the message. This shows that the other party cannot bear the suffering of the people.
Obviously, the person behind Ying Yi is not from Yuzhou.
Then only Qingzhou is left.
Chen Xinghe, the state pastor of Qingzhou, only managed to get the position of state pastor by relying on his status as an old imperial uncle.
Average ability.
Relying on the officials of the headquarters, the situation in Qingzhou was barely maintained.
He certainly didn't expect Chen Tong to rebel, let alone that His Majesty was in danger.
Ying Yi said before that the Qingzhou State Mud had already led 20,000 elite soldiers to Yuzhou to rescue His Majesty, together with the Qingzhou Commanding Department's Chief of Soldiers and Horses.
So there are experts in Qingzhou.
Li Yan has never been to Qingzhou, and he only knows a few people in Qingzhou.
Chen Xinghe, the state pastor, commanded Mu Shangwu, the general manager of the army and horses.
A mediocre person, a reckless man.
Peng Yue, the governor of Donghai County, had stayed in Donghai County for ten years based on his strength, and he could not have thought of this.
As for Xu Tianhua, he is a sycophant.
Nothing but wine tasting.
Then there was only one Zhao Ping left.
That's why Li Yancai mentioned Zhao Ping as a test.
From Ying Yi's reaction, Li Yan has already made his own judgment, that person is Zhao Ping.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Ping is still a wise man.
You know, Zhao Ping is not only a miracle doctor who can conquer the plague, but he also knows poetry and writes good articles.
He even knows how to be a merchant.
Acacia wine, soap, and frosting sugar all sold for sky-high prices in the capital.
The key is that these products are made by him.
He is also a skilled craftsman.
Now I know that he is good at strategy.
How did this man grow up?
They were all born in the land of the Dawei Dynasty, and they all ate the food grown by the common people. Why was he more powerful than others?
Could it be that he really is an immortal?
Even Li Yan, who was not very superstitious, could not help but begin to doubt Zhao Ping's true identity at this moment.
He was even more curious about Zhao Ping.
She even wanted to drag him to the palace to serve His Majesty.
In this way, you can feel more relaxed.
It is better to write another memorial, lest Your Majesty miss such a talented person.
Li Yan took a deep breath, sat on the table, took out paper, inkstone, pen and ink, and began to write the memorial.
And Ying Yi also returned to the courtyard rented by Zhao Ping.
But as soon as she entered the door, she was startled.
I saw that the lights were still on in the hall, and Zhao Ping and Li Hu were sitting there.
Drink tea and chat.
Seeing her return, Zhao Ping asked with a smile: "Ying Yi, you are back. Have you seen your majesty?"
"Are you following me?"
Ying Yi frowned immediately.
"Do you still need tracking?"
Zhao Ping chuckled lightly, "If you went out in the middle of the night, if you weren't looking for His Majesty, why would you?"
"You can guess it."
Forehead!
Ying Yi has a big head.
You can't stay with these resourceful people. They seem to be able to guess everything without you speaking at all, even what you are thinking.
terrible!
It is more comfortable to fight with real swords and guns.
If you can't win, run away.
If you win, kill.
Helpless, Yingyi could only shake his head, "No."
"The leader is Eunuch Li, not His Majesty."
"It looks like what I guessed."
Zhao Ping smiled and said, "Your Majesty is also a counselor."
"This is interesting."
Zhao Ping touched his chin with amusement.
"If nothing happens, I'll go to bed first."
Ying Yi stretched out, yawned and said, "I'm too sleepy. If I don't sleep, I won't have the energy to go on the road tomorrow."
"go to sleep."
Zhao Ping said pitifully: "You don't have to get up so early tomorrow."
"Since the leader of the army is not Your Majesty, Your Majesty is very safe. We don't have to rush on our way. We can sleep for an extra hour or two."
"hey-hey."
Yingyi smiled, turned and left.
Zhao Ping couldn't sleep.
His Majesty was able to predict Chen Tong's rebellion in advance and let Eunuch Li test the waters in advance. He was obviously a strategist.
Then his expedition to suppress bandits this time was really taking a long-term view to catch the big fish.
He felt that the time was ripe to purge the court.
Zhao Ping couldn't help but have a headache.
With such wisdom, would he be willing to let Liu Mengru marry him?
What if he cuts himself off?
Do you want to go to Jincheng to see him?
Zhao Ping was a little hesitant.
I can only tell Li Hu these confusions and ask him to help me make suggestions.
Of course, Zhao Ping didn't hold out any hope.
After all, with Li Hu's IQ, this is playing the piano to a cow.
But if you don’t express your feelings, you have to find someone to talk to.
Li Hu is the person Zhao Ping confides in.
However, what Zhao Ping didn't expect was that Li Hu actually answered and gave him a reason that he couldn't refuse.
