Chapter Seventy-Four: True Summer (2)
"Second brother, how come?" Li Xiuning cried out in surprise, for the old lady's words, the future heroine was also shocked, but after all, she was different from ordinary women, and quickly calmed down, and it was at this time that Li Xiuning realized that the expressions of all the people in the whole room except for herself were very calm, not only her second sister-in-law, but even the second sister-in-law's followers were the same, which surprised Li Xiuning, and the originally calm mood made waves again.
"What's so strange about that?" It was not the old lady who spoke, but Shi Qingyi, who had not spoken since just now: "Your second brother is naturally bold and reckless, there is nothing in this world that he does not dare to do, especially the thing that is dressed in the cloak of justice." ”
If it is said that dominating the world and achieving hegemony is not a righteous thing, then ending the troubled times is not counted among the people of the world and the fire and water? Limited by Mrs. Dou's teachings, although Li Shimin is bold and reckless, he has always followed the "right path", but if there is chaos today, there is no doubt that the "right way" is to calm the troubled times and return the world to a bright and prosperous world. Don't forget, Mrs. Dou is also a strange woman, she is only six years old, because Yang Jian usurped the throne, she dared to say: "I can't hate to be a man and save my uncle in danger." How could the strange woman, the son she valued the most, be obscure and willing to be plain in troubled times?
The meeting of the four people finally withdrew in the silence of the old lady, Shi Qingyi also returned to the courtyard assigned to his residence, although the Li family house in Hedong is not small, but it can not be compared with the Li family mansion in Luoyang, and there are a lot of people who have migrated, and the entire Hedong mansion is suddenly stuffed to the full, and the old lady has a small calculation in her heart, so Li Shimin and Shi Qingyi are arranged into the same courtyard, although they still do not live in the same house, but they live closely, and the number of meetings will increase a lot. It seems that the old lady has really taken great pains to make Shi Qingyi really her granddaughter-in-law.
When Shi Qingyi walked into his courtyard, Li Shimin was also walking out of it with Shan Wanjing, of course it was not a tryst here, Li Shimin was followed by Ma Sanbao, and Shan Wanjing was also followed by several cronies, obviously talking about business, but it could be seen that the parties had a very pleasant conversation, and Princess Dongming looked at Li Shimin with an excited expression on her face, obviously not only because of the happy business cooperation.
Seeing Shi Qingyi coming towards her, the little princess raised her eyebrows slightly, snorted softly, and then said goodbye to Li Shimin politely, and reluctantly left. The affection in his eyes, Li Shimin and Shi Qingyi saw it clearly, Li Shimin coughed lightly, and was about to return to his house, but Shi Qingyi stopped him. Shi Qingyi had been watching Shan Wanjing's group from the beginning until their figures disappeared around the corner of the courtyard.
What caught Shi Qingyi's attention was a young and handsome young man, this person has always been very hostile to Li Shimin, Shi Qingyi saw it clearly: more often, this person looked at Shan Wanjing's eyes, full of deep love: Well, the thing is obvious, the young man deeply likes the little princess of the Dongming faction, and therefore, he regards Li Shimin as his rival in love.
Shi Qingyi doesn't care about trivial things such as feelings, but what makes Shi Qingyi pay attention to it is: Although this young man is dignified and well-educated, but there is a trace of evil murder between his eyebrows, not obscenity, Shi Qingyi speculated: This young man is likely to practice a kind of miraculous skill, so that when the martial arts have not yet been completed, this extremely strange atmosphere will be revealed, in fact, the young man himself is not necessarily the first generation.
As for what kind of Qimen martial arts the young man cultivated, although Shi Qingyi only used it for the first time to see the young man, he also saw some clues from him: although the young man held a sword and made a dusty swordsman's appearance, Shi Qingyi was a master of swordsmanship, and he could see at a glance that the young man's posture of holding a sword was wrong, it was not the sword-holding posture that a swordsman should have, and from that posture, the weapon used by the young man was not a sword, but a knife, and the young man was carrying a huge weapon behind his back. Although it was wrapped in linen cloth from the handle down, only a crescent-like arc could be seen, but there was no doubt that it was the young man's weapon, and Shi Qingyi saw the huge arc, and the name of a weapon naturally appeared in his mind: the full moon scimitar.
The so-called Qin sword Han knife, the knife has been used by the large-scale equipment army in the Han Dynasty, but the knife at that time had no arc, and the difference with the sword is only one side of the blade or two sides of the blade, even if the time has passed six or seven hundred years, the scimitar has gradually appeared, but the use is still the northern nomads for the most, in the Middle Earth, the weapon is still the straight edge of the world. And at this moment, such a full moon scimitar appeared in front of Shi Qingyi.
Linked to the identity of the young man in the Dongming faction must not be low, this trip must be as Princess Dongming's personal bodyguard, there is no doubt that this is a very powerful martial arts, and the young man's martial arts are absolutely extremely high. No wonder Mrs. Dongming let the little princess go out with confidence, in addition to the care of the Li family in Hedong, this is also the dependence of her hands.
"I hope we can have a good talk!" Shi Qingyi stood in front of Li Shimin and said, her tone was light, but there was an inexplicable momentum, under Shi Qingyi's gaze, Li Shimin's heart was a little nervous, because he was not unfamiliar with that look, as a long, long time ago, he had seen it many times in the eyes of his grandmother and deceased mother.
Li Shimin didn't know much about Shi Qingyi, he had faded into his youth, and he already knew that what he had said in front of her back then was ridiculous, with his mother and grandmother, how could he marry her to him because of a vulgar woman's flattery, and for so many years, he also understood that his mother and grandmother admired her because she was really good. In other words, the daughter-in-law of the Li family they selected is actually the same kind of person as them. For this wife, Li Shimin also admires him very much, but unfortunately, this admiration cannot be turned into feelings, so many years have passed, although he and her can still only maintain the name of husband and wife, and cannot go further.
"You should know that I won't be looking for you unless there is an accident." Shi Qingyi spoke, her voice was cold, and the words she said sounded like a thunderclap in Li Shimin's ears: "But you shouldn't, you shouldn't, but you shouldn't hide from the old lady to take the entire Li family to make a bet, do you know how the old lady was angry after learning the news!? ”
Li Shimin was completely stunned, because in his cognition, his small movements would never be noticed, where did the disclosure appear, Liu Wenjing, Pei Lian's side, or ......, Li Shimin glanced back at Ma Sanbao, and Ma Sanbao shook his head vigorously and waved his hand to say that it was none of his business. At this moment, Shi Qingyi's voice came again: "No one revealed the news, it was deduced by the old lady herself." It can be regarded as relieving Ma Sanbao, Ma Sanbao was immediately grateful to the young lady, but Shi Qingyi didn't pay attention to this family member who was often with Li Shimin, and her eyes looked at Li Shimin again. didn't know that in Li Shimin's heart, he was also thinking carefully about her words.
There is no doubt that her relationship with her mother and grandmother is excellent, especially after the death of her mother, grandmother is more dependent on her emotionally, so the information she brings should be correct, grandmother really speculated her intentions, after all, grandmother has always been old and spicy, and it is not difficult to deduce from the clues that she wants to overthrow this decadent Sui world and create a new peaceful and prosperous world, so the question now is, what is the attitude of grandmother towards her own ideals and ambitions?
Being told the secret in his heart by Shi Qingyi, and the fact that he pressed the entire Li family to make a bet made Li Shimin's face show a look of shame for a while, but it was only for a moment, because the next moment, Li Shimin had already driven all the negative feelings out of his mind, "What I do is all for the peace of all the people in the world, and it can also bring the glory of the Li family's pairing for hundreds of years in the future, which is absolutely the right thing, compared to it, What the entire Li family has now is nothing, and Li Shimin firmly believes that the success of this matter is extremely high, and if he misses it, he will really regret it. ”
Because he firmly believed in the correctness of his choice, Li Shimin faced Shi Qingyi without fear, "I admit that I did it, but I don't regret it, because what I did was the right thing." When he said this, Li Shimin's eyes were condensed with a raging flame, showing the fiery and firmness in his heart: "Righteous things, if my mother is still alive, she will also choose to support me!" ”
Hearing this, Shi Qingyi sighed softly: "You are mistaken. Before Li Shimin could react, Shi Qingyi had already told the truth of the matter: "Do you think the old lady will have such deep feelings for this Great Sui Jiangshan?" Do you think that the old lady cares so much about the foundation of the Li family that she doesn't dare to bet on a qiē to fight, or do you think that the old lady who came out of the turbulent years will cherish her feathers, be timid as a mouse, and don't have the courage to fight once! Big mistake, the old lady is angry that you actually hide it from her, and others are just it, you are her most valued grandson, she has always had high hopes for you, but you have betrayed her trust like this, what do you say the old lady's mood will be? ”
The words were like knives, piercing into Li Shimin's heart.
