Chapter 344 Nanshan County
Li Rongyue glanced at Bai Lin proudly again: "Master Bai, you don't know that Master Lin is very good at martial arts, but he is a low-key person. A mere cultist is nothing to worry about!"
Bai Lin taunted, "Prince Li is sick but still comes to court. I admire you!"
Li Rongyue smiled calmly: "No, no, I just don't feel comfortable using force, everything else is normal."
Bai Lin smiled knowingly and said, "I think so too. If that's the case, why don't you go south, Prince Li?
There just so happens that a batch of ironware needs to be transported to General Qi in Jiangling County. Prince Li is only going to supervise it. There is no need to use force, so there is no need to find someone to replace you, right?"
Minister of Watermelon Eating: Bai Lin has dug another hole! If Li Rongyue refuses, will he mention the cotton-padded clothes of the Northwest Army again?
Li Rongyue laughed angrily: "Okay, okay, it seems that Lord Bai is determined not to let me stay in the capital?"
Bai Lin said calmly: "Master Li, you are joking. If you don't want to go, I can't force you. After all, I am shy."
"Humph!" Li Rongyue said angrily, "Let's go."
When Emperor Yongkang saw that Li Rongyue agreed, he immediately agreed. In fact, he had been listening to the palace people retelling stories from storytellers outside in the past few days, and he was listening with great interest. For a moment, he even felt embarrassed to favor Li Rongyue.
This is a good idea, let them both go out and have some peace and quiet.
This time Bai Lin was very proud: "Prince Li, I have another request."
Li Rongyue frowned: "Master Bai better not push your luck!"
Bai Lin continued, "Prince Li should also pay for my expenses when I go to Yanshan County!"
Li Rongyue was about to lose her temper when she caught a glimpse of the satisfied look on the Duke's face. She said, "How can it be my turn? Since the Duke proposed this matter, he is naturally responsible for it!"
Duke of Zhenguo: ...
Without waiting for the Duke of Zhenguo to answer, Bai Lin said bluntly: "Thank you, Duke!"
Duke Zhenguo: “…You’re welcome.”
The next day, Li Rongyue and Bai Lin left Beijing at the same time. Almost all the people saw it, and the rumors became much weaker.
Wei Ming and the Seventh Young Master went to the brothel again. This time they were very happy. Wei Ming even said bluntly: "It seems that the two of them really think highly of Princess Zhaohe!"
The Seventh Young Master nodded, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes: "Did Li Rongyue agree to leave the capital so easily?"
"What else can we do if they don't agree?" Wei Ming said with a smile, "You haven't seen it before. Bai Lin is very good at controlling people. Even though we all know that he won't abuse his power for personal gain, we still don't dare to gamble. What's more, he said in the court that he would give one more penny, not one less!"
The Seventh Young Master was excited: "Haha, this is wonderful, even the Emperor can't refuse this extra penny!"
"Seventh Master, what should we do next?"
"Of course, we should go to Lord Zhong to grab the credit and try to get the task from His Majesty before Bai Lin comes back. Especially the eldest son, it would be best if he goes to Jiangnan in person!"
Wei Ming nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go inform the eldest master now!"
"please!"
Wei Ming turned and left, then called the courtesan named Jiayi to accompany the Seventh Young Master.
After a while.
The Seventh Young Master was stunned when he saw the beautiful woman in front of him wearing a brocade quicksand skirt.
"Miss Jiayi is so bright and charming today!"
The woman wanted to lower her head in embarrassment, but she raised her head with a smile, her eyes rolling, "Sir, you have good taste, I am honored to wear your clothes!"
The Seventh Young Master immediately became interested. Yes, that's right, confident, beautiful, with a hint of perfunctory in his tone!
It turns out that Wei Ming’s talent lies here, he can train women!
Seeing the obviously happy look in the eyes of the Seventh Young Master, Jiayi slowly walked up to him and picked up the wine glass: "Young Master, Jiayi toasts you a glass!"
The Seventh Young Master had a playful expression on his face, his mind was clear, it seemed that Wei Ming had assigned her a task, but the means were ordinary, it was just a trick of getting her drunk and then trying to get her to tell some truth.
In this case, considering Wei Ming's careful training, he could cooperate a bit, so he said in a frivolous tone: "Oh? Why? If Miss Jiayi doesn't tell me a reason, I won't drink it."
Jiayi paused for a moment, then put the wine glass down and stared at him with burning eyes: "What reason do I have? I just want to get you drunk and spend the night with you. Since you don't want to drink, I won't force you."
The Seventh Young Master was a little surprised. Did he guess wrong?
Jiayi raised a glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp: "Sir, I will drink three glasses as punishment!"
As she continued to pour herself some wine, the Seventh Young Master stopped her, grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.
"Ah!" Jiayi exclaimed and leaned on the chest of the Seventh Master. When she looked up, she saw that the Seventh Master took a sip of wine and kissed her directly. He passed the wine to her between their lips and teeth!
It was not until she was having difficulty breathing that the Seventh Young Master let go of her lips, and then he said softly: "It's not the wine that makes people drunk, but people make themselves drunk. Miss Jiayi is drunk just by standing in front of me!"
Then, the Seventh Young Master picked her up and went to the inner room.
A few days later, the weather became colder and colder. After a snowfall, fewer and fewer people went out to listen to stories, and many new interesting stories were born in the capital.
In a village near Nanshan County, Bai Zhaozhao found the village chief and rented a farmhouse, planning to go up the mountain after the snow melted.
Xie Xingmeng was busy and generous. He called many villagers, tidied up the house and made it look brand new. He also bought a lot of food and filled the kitchen.
He Anyu sneered: "If you don't know, you would think we are going to stay here forever!"
Xie Xingmeng said disdainfully: "If you have the guts, don't eat it."
Zhu Hanyan ignored them and started cooking. It was a rare occasion that she wasn't staying in the dark, so of course she had to enjoy it.
Bai Zhaozhao turned around and asked: "Where are the eldest and third brothers? How come they disappeared in the blink of an eye?"
He Anyu replied: "I went to the mountain to explore the way."
Xie Xingmeng spread a fox fur coat on the chair and said with satisfaction, "This is the life of a human being. I've been traveling for so long that my bones are almost falling apart."
Bai Zhaozhao was helpless: "Fourth Brother, we are riding in a carriage, not on horses, how can we hurry?"
Xie Xingmeng rolled his eyes: "What? The road I hurried to the capital on is not called a road? Oh, I thought I was suddenly called here for some good news? It turned out to be murder! Zhao Zhao, you really refreshed my cognition. Even the masters of the heavenly level will not stop until they die!"
Bai Zhaozhao: ...
Xie Xingmeng shouted to He Anyu again: "Old Five, is your information accurate? Is the Taoist hiding in this deep mountain?"
He Anyu ignored him and turned to ask Bai Zhaozhao: "This Taoist may be difficult to deal with. The six of us may not be able to succeed. Why... didn't you find Li Rongyue?"
"What do you want to do with him?" Xie Xingmeng exploded. "Give him a chance and let him repay the favor? Even if that Taoist is as powerful as Master, at least we can both lose!"
He Anyu paused and said, "We came out early. I just received news yesterday that there were some rumors in the capital..."
After listening to He Anyu's words, Xie Xingmeng was stunned. After a while, she said, "I choose Bai Lin!"
He Anyu: "Why?"
Xie Xingmeng: "No reason, I just don't like Li Rongyue!"
