"Sister Xiaohong, come up here." Li Ye shouted as he looked at Li Mingzhu's back as he came downstairs.
"Come on, come on, stop shouting." As she spoke, Xiao Hong ran up with a "dong dong" sound.
Li Ye took out the brocade bag given to him by Li Mingzhu from the space ring, opened it and took a look at the jade pendant inside, sighed and said, "After all these years, you and I have nothing to do with each other."
After speaking, he took out the knife from his arms, cut off a corner of his monk's robe, wrapped the brocade bag, and handed it to Xiao Hong: "Please give it to the palace master's wife who is waiting for the carriage downstairs. Don't say anything."
Xiaohong nodded, held the brocade bag and ran downstairs.
...
"Madam, there is no need to worry. I am finally satisfied with this trip. Although I cannot persuade Mr. Mo, we can establish a relationship with City Lord Xia. I will explain something to Mr. Neng when we return."
Ye Wuya smiled, looked at Li Mingzhu and said.
Li Mingzhu sighed faintly: "I'm not worried about that boy, I'm heartbroken that my brother-in-law doesn't understand me. It seems that this relative really can't make it. Forget it, let's go back to the City Lord's Mansion!"
Ye Wuya waved to a passing carriage and asked Li Mingzhu to get on first.
"Ma'am, please wait a moment." At this moment, Xiaohong ran down from upstairs.
Li Mingzhu looked at Xiao Hong running over and frowned in confusion, thinking to herself, I asked your master to kick her out, what else are you going to do?
Xiaohong handed the brocade bag wrapped in monk's clothes to Li Mingzhu and said softly: "My young master asked me to give this to you." After saying that, she ran back to the building without looking back.
Li Mingzhu got on the carriage, looked at Ye Wuya and said, "Go back."
Ye Wuya greeted the coachman, only to hear the sound of horse whips and the sound of wheels.
Li Mingzhu, who was sitting in the carriage, opened the thing in her hand and saw a corner of linen monk's robe wrapped in the brocade bag she had given to Ye Zhiqiu two years ago. She opened the rope that tied the brocade bag and poured out a jade pendant. It was the same golden cicada jade pendant she had used for Dongfang Yu'er's engagement.
She couldn't help but feel nervous. She looked at Ye Wuya sitting outside the carriage and thought to herself: Has this kid really lost all his cultivation? Why so quiet and indifferent?
He couldn't help but mutter what Li Ye just said:
From now on, speak to the sky
I am a leisurely person
...
After watching Li Mingzhu and Ye Wuya leave in a carriage, the husband and Li Ye returned to the teahouse and sat down. The husband changed a handful of purple sand and added tea to the water on the stove.
"Did you know there was something wrong with the tea?" The gentleman's frown had not yet gone away. He was thinking about the way Li Ye wiped the corners of his mouth with a silk scarf.
"I know! When I came out of the temple, Chen Feng told me not to drink the tea made by Li Mingzhu." Li Ye said with a smile.
"Then what happened to the blood oozing from the corner of your mouth?"
"She worked so hard to poison, I have to cooperate."
The gentleman was startled, pointed at Li Ye, and scolded with a smile: "You little bastard, you make me worry about you."
"There's nothing wrong with the red flower snow ginseng tea, but she put something in my cup while she was washing it."
"What is it?" The gentleman took Li Ye's cup and put it under his nose and smelled it.
"Add Broken Heart Grass and Hua Gong Powder. She is afraid that I am still practicing, so she is trying to kill me!" Li Ye said quietly.
The husband frowned. He knew that Li Ye's current knowledge of medicinal herbs was not inferior to his. "You know it's poisonous, but you still drink it?"
Li Ye smiled self-deprecatingly, knocked on the table and said, "Why don't you drink it? After drinking her cup of poisonous tea, my relationship with them will end here, and I will be just a passerby when I meet them again."
The gentleman shook his head, picked up the kettle and washed the tea, and murmured: "Why are you trying to poison yourself?"
Unexpectedly, Li Ye went to look at his husband with a smile and said, "She and Ye Wuya thought I was an idiot. If I lose my eyes in cultivation, I would be blind."
"Why did Old Ape and Senior Old Wolf force me to refine the inner elixir of the black-horned python before going down to Tianshan Mountain? They just thought that someone would poison me after I entered the world."
Li Ye looked at his husband and laughed.
"After I refined the inner elixir of the black-horned python, even though I forcibly broke through to Nascent Soul, my body has reached a state where all poisons are invulnerable."
"As I told her, as long as she doesn't take advantage of my family, I will do what she wants. If she doesn't give up and continues to play tricks on me, even though I have no realm at this time, it's not So easy to bully."
Li Ye looked at the sky outside the hall and said lightly.
The teacher slapped the table and shouted: "Well said, this is my disciple, Mo Yu! How can any woman in this world understand the realm of master and disciple between you and me?"
"What if she becomes an imperial concubine one day? What's more, being an imperial concubine in the Central Region is not that easy."
The gentleman laughed a few times.
"When you go to the Great Buddha Temple tomorrow, you will understand the mess in the Central Territory. I can't say that you will have to clean up these messes in the future."
The gentleman's tightly frowning brows had now relaxed and he laughed.
"Just after this incident, the relationship between me and the Lord of Dongxuan Territory has been severed. I don't know how to tell my wife these things." Li Ye had a headache thinking about Li Hongxiu's appearance.
"If Master's wife knew that her sister had poisoned me, she would definitely go back and make a fuss with her. If I don't tell Master's wife, I'm afraid she would suffer a disadvantage when facing Li Mingzhu in the future."
Li Ye looked at Mr. and said softly.
"When Hongxiu comes, I will tell her all these things and let her pay more attention. We don't deal with Li Mingzhu, but we don't object to Li Hongxiu dealing with her. As long as she doesn't harm her sister."
The husband was already in a good mood at the moment. He didn't expect that his apprentice had learned how to deal with the ugliness in the world.
"Then you have to hold the master's wife for a while. You know her hot temper."
"Yeah, I will."
...
"Are you feeling uncomfortable if you just give up on Dongfang Yu'er?" The gentleman poured a cup of brewed tea to Li Ye.
"How can I not be sad? Will she do what I want? If not, then I will do what she wants." Li Ye replied faintly.
"When I was practicing in Tianshan, I suddenly fell seriously ill one day. Xiaoqing also knew about it. It took me a long time to recover. After I recovered from the illness, I could no longer think of Dongfang Yu'er. Looks like this, I’m afraid God wants me to let go.”
Li Ye looked at his husband and sighed softly. That illness almost killed him.
"You were already a golden elixir at that time, how could you get sick easily?" The gentleman frowned.
"I've already said it, or God asked me to let go earlier, otherwise why would I suddenly get sick? Even seniors Old Ape and Old Wolf can't tell."
Li Ye smiled.
"Little brat, when did you get sick? Let your wife take a look." Just as he was talking, Li Hongxiu walked in.
The husband poured her a cup of tea and said with a smile, "I was chatting with Ye'er about things in the mountains."
Li Hongxiu picked up the tea cup, took a sip and said, "I heard that my sister was here just now?"
The gentleman glanced at Li Ye, gently handed the tea cup he had just drank to Li Hongxiu, and said, "Firstly, she came over to see your sister, and secondly, she came over to have a decisive battle with Ye'er!"
Li Ye looked at his husband and shook his head gently, saying, "Sir, you can't do it."
"Why are you giving me an empty cup? She came here to look for Ye'er Juejue. Is this serious?" After saying that, he put the cup under his nose and sniffed, and said, "This tastes very good. Why didn't I drink it?" This smell."
The husband looked at her innocent look and smiled with a headache: "Believe it or not, if I pour a cup of tea into it now, after you drink it, you will lose all your cultivation and all your skills!"
Li Hongxiu was shocked and looked at her husband with glaring eyes: "What on earth is going on?"
Li Ye lowered his head and remained silent.
"Go and call Tang Youyu up. Your cultivation level is too low." The gentleman was a little unhappy.
Li Hongxiu walked to the corridor outside the door and shouted: "Fat Tang, come up here. Hurry up!"
"It's coming, it's coming, don't hurry." Tang Youyu replied from downstairs.
"Take it and see if there are any tricks." Li Hongxiu handed the teacup in his hand to Fatty Tang.
Tang Youyu took the tea cup, put it under his nose and sniffed it for a few times, and said: "Safflower, snow ginseng, black tea from Zhongyu...wait, why is there a strong smell of heartbroken grass and... What does Hua Gong Powder smell like?”
"Mr. Mo, what's going on? If you drink a cup of tea like this, even a practitioner in the Yuanying realm will lose all his cultivation and become a cripple! Who is so cruel? Could it be..."
Tang Youyu was so frightened that he shut his mouth thinking about his husband's attitude towards Li Mingzhu just now.
"You are right, it was the palace master's wife just now who wanted to take Ye'er's life!" the gentleman said coldly.
After hearing this, Tang Youyu collapsed on the chair by the door and took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat on his head.
Li Hongxiu was also shocked. She held her husband's hand and asked, "What happened just now?"
The husband pulled her to sit down and slowly told her what had just happened.
Li Ye looked at Tang Youyu who was constantly wiping his sweat, and said with a smile: "Uncle Tang, don't be afraid, this matter is over. You must take it out and pass it on, it will be troublesome if my mother and Mu Mu know about it. "
Tang Youyu, who was still frightened, nodded and said, "Don't worry, I won't say anything even if you beat him to death!"
Li Hongxiu slapped the table and shouted: "You little bastard, how dare you drink it even though you know it's poison, and risk your life?"
Li Ye raised his head, looked at the angry Li Hongxiu, and smiled lightly.
Said: "She is Dongfang Yu'er's mother and my wife's biological sister. I have to give her some face, right? Otherwise, sir, it's not a good life."
The husband smiled and said: "You little bastard, she wants your life, why are you trying to drag her on me!"
"Aren't I afraid that it will be difficult for my wife to be a good person? After all, they are sisters. After all, I am still an outsider." Li Ye sighed.
When Li Hongxiu heard this, she blurted out: "Fart! Why am I a stranger to you? You are living happily alone on Tianshan Mountain. Who cares about teaching Mumu to play the piano for you and taking her shopping to buy food?"
"After Li Xiaoxue was born, who helped your mother take care of her every day, feed her, and teach her to speak?"
Li Hongxiu looked at him and shouted.
"Okay! It's all my fault. I shouldn't have come back to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival today. I just stayed at the Great Buddha Temple. There's no such dirty things."
Li Ye looked at her and smiled.
Li Hong's sleeves were stunned and she stepped forward to pick up his ears. "You are getting more and more proud. One day I will prepare a cup of poison for you to taste."
Tang Youyu covered his mouth and laughed, saying that this kid is not a human, but a monster.
The husband waved his hand and pulled Li Hongxiu to sit down. "Don't blame Ye'er for not letting me tell you, but I think you should know the truth."
Li Hongxiu sighed quietly and said, "Then what should we do next? If she comes to the house to find us, how will I face her?"
The husband thought for a while, patted her hand and said, "I told her that she is not welcome in Zizhuyuan. From now on, you two sisters will find another place to meet. You can also come to a restaurant. As long as I am not there."
"It's understandable that she came to break off the engagement because she wanted her daughter to seek another career, and Ye'er didn't make things difficult for her, just as she wanted. But in order to make Li Ye give up, she actually poisoned Ye'er. Do she really think that we are all idiots? "
The gentleman gritted his teeth and said bitterly.
"If Ye'er's health hadn't been fine, she and that guy wouldn't have been able to leave the restaurant today."
When Li Hongxiu heard this, her body softened and she fell into the husband's arms in fear.
Li Ye frowned and murmured: "We are born from the same roots, so there is no need to rush into each other."
After speaking, he glanced at Tang Youyu, stood up and left.
Tang Youyu quickly stood up and walked out the door.
The two of them walked downstairs one after the other.
"You really can't tell this, otherwise you'll get into trouble."
"Don't worry, I will never tell you."
"That's good! How many gold coins will be sent out today?"
"The workers in the building plus your family have a total of fifty-five."
"Go to Hu Qingshan and say that I asked you to ask for it."
"I'll pay half of it. You were also frightened today."
"It's up to you." Li Ye finished, and walked to the other side of the Liuhe River with his hands behind his back.
Tang Youyu looked at his leaving figure and let out a long sigh.
He cursed fiercely: "You vicious woman, don't let me entertain you in the future."
Li Hongxiu stood upstairs, leaning against her husband, looking at Li Ye's bleak figure walking on the other side of the Liuhe River, and sighed.
He said softly: "Oh! I didn't expect that I would have to endure such hardships at such a young age."
The husband patted her and said, "This is an ordeal between my master and my apprentice. It will not affect the relationship between you sisters. It's just that you have to be more cautious in the future. Things are impermanent and anything is possible."
Li Hongxiu hugged her husband tightly and murmured: "As long as I stay with you, everything else has nothing to do with me."
Sir smiled. "I'm going to the Great Buddha Temple with Ye'er tomorrow, and we may stay there for a few days. You don't have to worry about the restaurant these days, and take good care of your home."
Li Hongxiu nodded and said, "Don't worry, Xiaoqing and I are at home."
The husband hugged Li Hongxiu and walked into the house, saying softly: "Go back to the house, it's windy outside."
