Chapter 17: Li Yue
"Fourth Miss, I haven't seen her for a while, and she is getting more and more beautiful." Several daughters of the family were around, and the fourth lady touted.
"Yes, yes, look at this tender skin as if it is about to come out of water."
"The silk of this dress is also the best product, others can't compare it at all, this handiwork, I'm afraid it's the work of the top show building in Xianyang City, others can't buy it if they want to."
And the fourth lady enjoys everyone's praise with a face, this fourth lady is called Li Yue, is Li Si's fourth daughter, very loved by Li Si, since she was a child, she has been calling for wind and rain, what she wants, no one has ever dared to go against her wishes, so she has developed a brutal and willful, arrogant and domineering character, although most of the daughters of the family hate her, but her face has to make a hypocritical flattery.
"Today, my father is holding a family dinner, and everyone has fun." Li Yue enjoyed the pursuit of others, and then said with a smug face.
"Thank you, Miss Four." The daughters of the family raised their glasses together to toast the fourth lady, and then drank it all.
The banquet went on slowly, and after everyone was full of food and drink, Li Si ordered someone to remove the table, and then the ladies enjoyed the night view in the garden together, when Li Yue saw Zhao Gao, she glanced at Zhao Gao, and walked to the side without looking at Zhao Gao, and said coquettishly: "Father, Yue'er has a gift for my father tonight, please come over with Yue'er." ”
"Yue'er is so filial." Seeing his favorite little daughter coquettish to him, Li Si looked happy, and then said to the people present: "Come, everyone go with me to have a look." ”
The people present heard Li Si's words, and immediately echoed and followed, Zhao Gao didn't want to go, but his mother pulled him, so Zhao Gao also followed the end of the team, and went together, Li Yue took Li Si to the pond, only to see buckets of things on the ground, Li Si asked curiously: "Yue'er, what is this?" ”
"Father, please wait a moment, my daughter will now order someone to open it." After Li Yue finished speaking to Li Si, she said to the little guys: "You go and open the things and be careful of the things inside." ”
"Yes, Miss Four." The servants walked over respectfully and carefully removed the barrels outside.
Inside was a wooden thing, everyone looked at the thing on the ground curiously, and didn't understand what it was, Li Si also asked curiously: "Yue'er, what kind of gift are you preparing for your husband, why is it so strange." ”
"Father." When Li Yue heard her father ask about herself, she said with a smile: "Yue'er came to show her father." ”
I saw Li Yue slowly walk to the wooden object, and then motioned for the little guy to put the arrow target in front, and then Li Yue pressed a button, and several arrows were immediately shot out of the wooden object, and they accurately shot into the center of the arrow target.
Seeing this, Li Si immediately said happily: "Good, good, good." ”
The others were happy to see Li Si, and they also praised it, not waiting or talking, it is true that they have never heard of this thing in Li Yue's hand, and they have never seen it, but when they saw the bullseye of the arrow, the people present also knew that this was a powerful item.
"Yue'er, where did you find the treasure, I even like it for my husband." Li Si said with a look of affection to Li Yue.
"Father, the daughter saw her father's face a few days ago, and the daughter as a woman can't share it for her father, and it happened that she was passing by the suburbs a few days ago, and saw someone demonstrating this, and when the daughter saw this, she immediately came to offer it to her father, hoping to make her father happy." Li Yue said to Li Si with a filial expression.
"Yue'er is really filial." Li Si listened to Li Yue's words and praised, and then asked, "What about the person who demonstrated?" Did Yue'er please come back? ”
"Of course, the daughter must have come back together, and the people are waiting in the side hall now, and the father wants to see him?" Li Yue knew that his father would definitely see someone when he saw this thing, so he brought them back early in the morning.
"Oh, is it? Hurry up, please come here. Li Si was very satisfied with his daughter's performance, and immediately ordered the little maid to bring someone up.
Zhao Gao was also curious when he saw the things on the ground, wanting to see who made it, but after a while, the little man brought a man over to salute, and the man knelt down and bowed to Li Si and said, "The villain sees the prime minister." ”
The person who came was about forty years old, but the cloth was neat and clean, and a pair of Danfeng eyes were very eye-catching. ”
"Master Xie." When the visitor saw that Li Si let him get up, he stood up respectfully and respectfully, straightening up, as if he was arrogant.
"I don't know what your Excellency is called? You made this thing? Lees asked, pointing to something wooden on the ground.
"Adult, the small one's name is Yi Hai, this is an arrow crossbow made by a villain, which can send out seven arrows at a time." The man who called himself Yi Hai said indifferently.
However, Zhao Gao, who observed carefully, still found the greed in Yi Hai's eyes, it seems that this Yi Hai is not as arrogant as he looks, Li Yue happened to meet at the city gate, it seems that it is not accidental, thinking of this, Zhao Gao secretly laughed in his heart, it seems that he is also a person with interests.
"Seven arrows?" Li Si listened to what Yi Hai said, and asked incomprehensibly: "Just now, the little girl was released, obviously she can only release five straight arrows, where did the seven arrows come from?" ”
"My lord, those are the two arrows that were hidden without telling the young lady." Yi Hai showed a slight hint of pride on his face, this was carefully developed by him over the years, Yi Hai felt proud in his heart, as long as this thing won the favor of the prime minister, he would not be waiting for himself to be prosperous and rich in the future.
I saw Yi Hai walk to the crossbow, and then said respectfully to Li Si: "My lord, please take a few steps back from you, so as not to hurt you by mistake." ”
Listening to Yi Hai's words, Li Si and the people present took a few steps back, Yi Hai saw this, and ordered the little guy to bring up two more arrow targets, and then saw Yi Hai take out a carved wood from his arms and put it in, and then retreated to a safe place on the side, Yi Hai's footsteps fell, and he saw seven arrows shot out of the arrow crossbow in unison, and there was an arrow in almost every corner, and it was shot at the arrow target without any dead ends.
"Okay." When Li Si saw it, he immediately clapped his hands and praised.
Yi Hai heard Li Si's applause, and was silently proud in his heart, but his face was tentative, and then he said to Li Si: "My lord, please wait a moment, the good show is still to come?" ”
As soon as Yi Hai finished speaking, he only heard a loud bang, the wooden box arrow crossbow exploded, if it weren't for Li Si and the others, they would definitely be injured, this life scared Li Yue and other female dependents trembled, and some of the men present were also scared into a cold sweat.
"Why is this happening?" Li Si saw the blown up arrow crossbow and looked at Yi Hai and asked.
"Don't worry, sir." Yi Hai comforted the surprised Li Si and said: "This is specially set up by the villain, which is a defense made in case of defeat. ”
After listening to Yi Hai's words, someone asked: "This thing is so powerful when it explodes, if it is surrounded by enemies, then the user is not certain to die?" ”
"So, this is why the villain explained to Miss Four, so that Miss Four would not be injured by mistake." Yi Hai looked at the fourth young lady who was frightened by the explosion just now, and then said to Li Si: "When my crossbow usually shoots five arrows, everyone can use it, but if it uses seven arrows, it must be a very dangerous moment, so as long as the person who is loyal to the adult will definitely be sacrificed by the adult." ”
After listening to Yi Hai's answer, Li Si saw the power of the arrow crossbow just now, and immediately said with satisfaction: "Okay, very good, Yi Hai, this prime minister wants to reward you, I don't know if you can serve this prime minister?" ”
Yi Hai listened to Li Si's words, and immediately knelt down and said, "The villain is willing to go to the soup for the adult, and he will not give up." ”
"Okay, from today on, you will be the guest secretary of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and you will concentrate on developing artifacts for the Prime Minister." Li Si looked at Yi Hai and said with satisfaction.
"Lord Xie, the villain will live up to the expectations of adults." Yi Hai lowered his head and said, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smug smile, glory and wealth were waiting for him.
"Hurry up." Li Si was very satisfied with Yi Hai and immediately said to Yi Hai.
"Master Xie." Yi Hai heard Li Si's words and slowly stood up, the smile on the corner of his mouth was suppressed, making people feel that he didn't care about fame and fortune.
"Come on, carry things down." Li Si instructed the little servant.
When the little guy heard Li Si's order, he immediately carefully lifted the arrow crossbow, but one of the little guys accidentally pressed the switch, because everyone paid attention to Li Si and Yi Hai, and no one noticed it, only Zhao Gao, who had always been interested in the arrow crossbow, saw it, and Zhao Gao saw that the arrow was shot at Li Yue, although Zhao Gao didn't like Li Yue, but after all, it was a human life, so he immediately called: "Be careful." ”
Although Zhao Gao stood relatively remotely, he was not separated from Li Yue, only to see Zhao Gao step forward, pull Li Yue's arm, and then step forward to protect Li Yue in his arms, as soon as he turned around, the arrow slashed slightly from Zhao Gao's arm, and blood immediately oozed out of his arm.
Li Yue, who was protected by Zhao Gao in his arms, was stunned, not knowing what was going on, but seeing the blood oozing from Zhao Gao's arm, there was a feeling of rebirth after the catastrophe in his heart.
Li Si heard Zhao Gao's voice, and when he looked over, he saw the arrow shooting straight at Li Yue, which scared Li Si's heart for a while, and when he saw Zhao Gao saving Li Yue, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern: "Yue'er, how are you?" Is there something wrong? ”
Li Yue saw Li Si's caring eyes, and only then did she react, if Zhao Gao hadn't saved herself just now, she would have died under the arrow, Li Yue immediately pounced on Li Si, tears kept falling, and her trembling body cried in Li Si's arms and said: "Father, my daughter is so scared, my daughter almost never sees her father again." ”
