He knows too much.
Compared with his own insignificance, important ministers like him are more likely to be abandoned and destroyed, just like Xie Ningchao... Because he has too much power, he has become a thorn in his side.
Wei Li chuckled: "I will never rely on other people's kindness to live my life. I can sit here today because I have the ability and dare to be the first in the world."
Xu Zhihuai knew what he meant. I'm afraid only he knew how many dirty things he had done for the court over the years.
Is he worthy of being so proud even though he is covered in sin?
To deal with such a ruthless and unjust person, beauty may be the most effective.
Xu Zhihuai sat down slowly, held his head with one hand, and rubbed it gently, looking uncomfortable.
Wei Li couldn't see it and turned his face slightly to face the direction where she was sitting.
Xu Zhihuai sighed softly: "Master Hou, over the past year or so, I thought I had seen everything. But now I feel deeply frightened after hearing what Master Hou said."
"You're scared."
"How can I not be afraid. If everything goes wrong..."
"The eldest princess does things neatly and neatly, and won't get into trouble."
"But... where did she get the troops?"
Wei Li smiled slowly: "You don't need many people, you just need a right time, a right place, and a right person."
"This candidate won't be you, Lord Marquis, right?"
"I'm not that stupid!"
Xu Zhihuai deliberately breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then I'm relieved. If the Marquis does something detrimental to the Emperor, how should the Crown Prince explain it?"
"Ah……"
Wei Li chuckled carelessly.
Xu Zhihuai seemed not to have heard anything and continued: "Master Hou stayed in the palace to wait for the eldest princess to return?"
"Yes, that's not entirely true. The palace is full of beautiful clothes and fine food, and beautiful scenery abounds. Who doesn't like that?"
"Then the Marquis must heal his eye injury quickly and be careful of what happens in the future."
After Xu Zhihuai finished speaking, he looked at him again, guessing what kind of look he would have at this moment.
The moment Wei Li put down the tea cup, she instinctively felt that he must be able to see it.
He could see it, he was just pretending.
Thinking of this, Xu Zhihuai stood up slowly and walked towards Wei Li. She deliberately made her steps heavier and her voice heavier.
Wei Li smelled her faint fragrance and warned in a low voice: "Xu Zhihuai, don't be presumptuous!"
Xu Zhihuai stood one step away from him and whispered softly: "I don't dare to be presumptuous, but suddenly... I suddenly want to see Master Hou's face."
Her tone was soft and soft, with a hint of pleading.
Wei Li frowned in disgust, but the next second, her soft palm pressed against his cheek.
The gentle touch of a warm hand may seem unintentional, but it is actually bold.
"I want to see Mr. Hou's face."
Xu Zhihuai plucked up the courage and took another half step closer. She knew that he was the worst offender, and no matter how hard his mouth was, he could not harden his heart, so he pushed her away.
Wei Li smiled and said, "Okay, I'll let you see clearly." After saying that, he took off the white gauze covering his eyes, revealing his mysterious eyes.
The previous redness and swelling have subsided, the skin is intact, and the eyelashes are longer and longer.
They look just like ordinary people.
Xu Zhihuai reached out and touched his eyelids lightly, trying to get him to open his eyes.
Wei Li knew her little thoughts too well.
He slowly opened his eyes, his dark pupils, without any red thread, were clear and energetic.
This is obviously a recovery...
The moment Xu Zhihuai met those eyes, he was filled with disappointment.
"Master Marquis, it turns out you are already well. I'm so lucky."
Wei Li's vision was not clear. He could only vaguely see the outline of her cheeks and the position of her eyebrows. However, he enjoyed playing with the fear in her heart and making her scared.
"You must be disappointed."
Wei Li revealed what was on her mind, and Xu Zhihuai was afraid that he would discover her hesitation, so she rushed to him and hugged his shoulders tightly as if she wanted to die.
"How could it be? This is so good, so good..."
Wei Li didn't do anything to her, he just grabbed her waist and forced her to raise her head, then gently shook the gauze in his hand and asked in a low voice: "Do you want to try it?"
Xu Zhihuai was surprised: "What?"
"Try what it feels like to be completely dark."
Xu Zhihuai was about to say no, but when he saw the corner of his mouth curling up maliciously, he restrained himself and remained silent.
Wei Li folded the gauze again and again with his own hands, and then covered her eyes, leaving no room for her to hesitate or resist.
Xu Zhihuai took a deep breath and felt his cold fingers touch his cheek, like soft worms.
Her eyes instantly darkened.
I thought the gauze would be light-transmitting, but I didn't expect it to be completely opaque.
In the darkness, Wei Li's breath blew against the tip of her nose and face. He did nothing, and she could do nothing.
After a moment, his hands fell on her shoulders, and his fingers pressed slightly: "How does it feel like not being able to see anything?"
Xu Zhihuai said softly: "No, it's very bad."
Wei Li suddenly became patient and wanted to slowly appreciate how she would break down and give up little by little in the darkness.
Xu Zhihuai was guarded against his silence, but unexpectedly, he suddenly grabbed her hand and stretched it somewhere.
"Master Hou! What is that?"
The cold, hard touch came suddenly, making her cry out softly.
Wei Li laughed at her: "I was scared at the beginning."
"Master Hou, stop making trouble, I'm really scared."
As she spoke, she struggled slightly. How could Wei Li let her go so easily? He just stuffed something into her hand and asked her to hold it tightly.
"Master Hou..."
Xu Zhihuai was startled and shook his head vigorously. Only when the gauze loosened and fell did he see what was in his hand clearly.
It is a gorgeous dagger inlaid with exquisite gems.
Wei Li laughed softly: "What do you think I want to do?"
Xu Zhihuai bit his lip and said nothing, holding the dagger, wondering why he was going crazy again.
"The Seven Treasures Dagger is for you."
Xu Zhihuai didn't understand what he meant, so he hurriedly stood up from him and put the dagger on the table.
"Master Hou, this is too expensive, and I don't know how to use it."
Wei Li pulled away the gauze and covered his face again: "If you don't know how to use it, just learn it. At worst, find someone to do it."
Xu Zhihuai shook his head again: "Master Hou, stop joking, I don't have that ability."
"What if I want you to kill someone?"
"..."
Xu Zhihuai didn't dare to answer anymore.
Because he can do any damn thing.
"Don't want to?"
"Master Hou, I don't know how to do that kind of thing."
"Who's born with it? You can learn it!"
"I don't want to learn. I can't learn."
Xu Zhihuai's voice trembled when he spoke.
Wei Li was just teasing her.
"Then forget it. I hope you won't need it in your life."
"I can't bring this thing back to Jianzhang Palace. Once someone discovers it and is accused of intending to assassinate the king, I won't be able to stay in the palace."
Xu Zhihuai still refused.
Who knows if this dagger was stained with blood? Or maybe it's the weapon he uses to kill others!
Wei Li did not allow her to refuse: "What I give to you is yours. It is with you, and it is without you."
