Bo Shan was sitting on the chair next to the bed, looking very much like a serious old man, staring at the recovering evil flower of the Western Region - Yasha.
"Are you his subordinate or his father?"
Yasha doesn’t know Li Ke’s identity? He was rescued from Erlong Mountain and escorted by officials and soldiers of the Tang Dynasty along the way. Could this be a child from an ordinary family?
She was just taking the opportunity to scan the room, looking for an opportunity to escape. The room seemed quite spacious, so she pushed the old man down, and then ran away towards the door and window. She would definitely be able to escape from here. Being chased was very uncomfortable. matter.
"Don't look at it. You can't escape from me. As long as you step out, someone will definitely shoot an arrow to kill you. Moreover, I will poison your soup. You won't be able to recover for a while. Either you tell me honestly." What is the purpose of coming here, or be imprisoned until death."
Bo Shang can see through people's hearts at a glance, even if they are foreign women who don't look like them, every move is observed. From the moment he seizes this evil flower, of course he also thinks about how to deal with it. How many conspiracies are hidden in it? It must be confessed.
The sound of teeth grinding could be heard. The woman was restless, and the old man was more alert. The two looked at each other for a while, until one of them lost his patience.
"I can help you kill people, kill those you don't like, and the price is that I can leave here smoothly. I am not the mastermind!"
This is Yasha's biggest concession. She should assassinate someone. Because there are too many variables on the road and she is being chased by her peers. Now that she is under someone else's roof, she can only gain freedom through this method. Maybe she will be able to do so in the future. Wash your hands in a golden basin.
But all he saw was Bo Shan shook his head, and then walked out. The people he wanted to kill were all dead, and his enemies basically didn't survive. Now he is living in seclusion on the outskirts of Licheng, Qizhou, just to live out the rest of his life in peace. It seems that this thing is not feasible.
The door closed. Like a wild beast, Yasha grabbed the food with her hands and ate it. Then she was thinking about the same thing. Who sent her and others to perform a mission that required death?
Qiuyue Pavilion has now hired a few more men to scare those gangsters who usually have bad intentions on the street. In addition, there are distinguished guests arriving tonight, Gu Shiniang does not dare to neglect, and she has to ask the King of Shu for permission. The guest's demands are a bit excessive.
"Your Majesty, it's not that the villain did it poorly, it's just that I can't stand the Crown Prince's attitude. Mingyue is inside. We are not prostitutes, but we agreed at the beginning."
This is the reason why the Crown Prince wants a newly minted oiran to accompany him when he is drinking. He is unruly in his words and deeds. However, how can a woman fight against the powerful? She has to find the boss behind the scenes to mediate.
Gu Shiniang would never let her sisters suffer humiliation, so she had no choice but to invite the King of Shu to come forward.
Li Ke happened to be nearby, and Li Chengqian suddenly visited Licheng. He said he wanted to appease the people, but in fact he came to spy on information. He wanted to see what he could do to restore internal affairs to appease people. There were not many people who threatened the throne.
The guard who was as tall as a tree trunk was waiting outside the private room. After Li Ke said a few words, he opened the door and went straight inside.
If it had been a little later, Mingyue would have really lost her dignity. Her clothes were almost torn off her upper body, her face was very aggrieved, and she didn't dare to cry.
"Thank you, Prince and Prince!"
Mingyue wrapped herself in a quilt and walked out. The reward in her hand was more of an insult.
The door was closed again, and this time Li Chengqian showed more tricks, looking dissatisfied with his desires, and even more resentful towards the sudden appearance of Li Ke. He had already been a little unhappy in the palace before, and the flesh on his lips Being taken away, naturally he was dissatisfied in various ways.
Holy shit, this is Li Shimin's eldest son. He doesn't look like a prince at all. Could he be a substitute found from a local ruffian?
"Are you usually this virtuous?"
They had already closed the door and opened the skylight to speak frankly. Li Ke didn't want to see the real prince. He pretended to be very generous to the refugees before, but he was too indulgent in the brothel. This is the real hypocrisy. .
"You opened such a place, didn't you just want to satisfy your own selfish desires? I have seen the women here, and they are much better than those in Chang'an City. The only bad thing is that they are pretending to be reserved, and I thought they were some good-natured women. , there are a few of them that you have slept with, I will pay more attention to them in the future."
Li Chengqian just put on his clothes and sat on the chair. He was about to drink a glass of wine to quell the fire, but the cup was pushed away as soon as it reached his mouth. He glared at Li Ke, his younger brother, the only one who could threaten the status of the crown prince. people.
If it weren't for the fact that you are the emperor's son, I should have beaten you long ago. After causing so many troubles outside, you still have to pretend to be considerate of the people. Are you tired?
"My people in the court wrote back, saying that the allocated money is more than that. How much did you swallow? Don't let me bring it up. You and I both know what kind of character my father is. If he is allowed to knew......"
There was a deliberate pause, mainly because Li Ke didn't know how much money the court had given for disaster relief, so he wanted to scare Li Chengqian first and let him do his duty in Licheng, at least until he could completely rebuild Licheng.
His eyes were flickering, and he must have embezzled a lot. There were many people in the imperial court who were from Changsun Wuji, and they were very isolated from the King of Shu. Even the appropriation was done secretly. The specific amount has not been announced yet, that is, there is An opportunity to take advantage of.
"Give me a few more days, the money is still on the way!"
His voice was a little weak. It seemed that he had really embezzled most of the court's special funds. It must have been the 20 million taels of silver that Li Ke had innocently withheld before. If someone else had embezzled it, the matter would be completely messed up. At present, it is the prince Li Chengqian who has enriched his own pockets. .
After Li Ke deliberately sat down, he deliberately raised Erlang's legs and gave him a warning. Now it is time to let Li Chengqian know that he is afraid. It is not to protect the prince, but because he does not want to cause trouble at this point in time. Changsun Wuji will definitely use it. Try your best to keep the prince, but it might be another fierce battle.
My biggest problem right now is that I don't have a deep foundation in Qizhou and there aren't many people around me that I can use. I need to solve the biggest threat at the moment first.
"I will give you enough time to get the money. There is one more thing you have to remember. This is my brothel. If they don't want to do anything, even if you are the prince, I won't allow you to do anything!"
"Either drink this glass of wine or go back to Beijing together!"
Li Ke drank it all in one gulp and would not give the prince any choice. He could only ask him to behave well, at least not to cause trouble behind his back. There were too many things to do now.
