When Li Hongyu and Youlan rushed to the hall in the front yard, Liu Haiying, who was kneeling on the ground, was already bloody on his back, covered with scars, and looked a little terrifying.

"Aunt Lan, don't fight anymore, Brother Ying did this for me, if you want to punish you, even me will punish you!" Seeing this, Youlan hurriedly rushed forward, knelt in front of the middle-aged woman, grabbed her hand holding the soft whip tightly, and said with an anxious expression.

"Xin'er, hurry up, this matter has nothing to do with you, it's all a disaster caused by this bold and reckless rebel, if you don't teach him a lesson this time, I don't know how big a basket he will poke next time!"

The middle-aged woman hurriedly went to help Youlan, glaring at Liu Haiying who was kneeling there with hatred, and felt extremely annoyed by Liu Haiying's actions this time.

"Aunt Lan, you can spare Brother Ying, otherwise I will be punished with Brother Ying." Youlan didn't get up, knelt there and pleaded with the middle-aged woman.

"Xin'er, this time your brother Ying did something wrong, you must accept the punishment, otherwise how can you convince the public in the future?"

When the middle-aged woman heard this, she said to Youlan, "This is also for his good, if he doesn't teach him a lesson, if he still acts according to his temperament in the future, I don't know how much trouble he will cause." ”

"Aunt Lan, you have beaten and beaten, Brother Ying already knows that he is wrong, so you can spare him." Youlan's eyes couldn't help but start to redden, and she pleaded with the middle-aged woman.

"Alas!"

The middle-aged woman couldn't help but sigh, and looked at Youlan with a serious expression, "Xin'er, Aunt Lan can spare him, but the country has national laws, and the family has family rules, he must be punished for breaking your father's major event this time, otherwise everyone will follow suit, and the stall that your father has built with great difficulty will be dispersed, and everyone will suffer at that time!" ”

"Xin'er is willing to be punished with Brother Eagle." When Youlan heard this, she knew the seriousness of the situation, and her tears suddenly rolled down like beads with broken threads, no matter what, Liu Haiying caused such a big disaster because of her.

"Xin'er, it's none of your business here, I'm doing it alone, so naturally I'll take care of it alone, and it has nothing to do with others!" At this time, the kneeling Liu Haiying turned his head to Youlan and said, "It's just a big deal, and after eighteen years, he will be a good man again." ”

"You rebel, you still don't know how to repent until now, I'm really angry." The middle-aged woman saw that Liu Haiying still looked righteous and awe-inspiring, and suddenly became angry, and raised the soft whip in her hand again.

"Aunt Lan!" Seeing this, Youlan hurriedly grabbed the wrist of the middle-aged woman's whip to prevent the whipping of Liu Haiying.

"Madam, although this is your family matter, since it involves Zaixia, can you listen to the next word!"

At this time, Li Hongyu, who had been watching coldly for a long time, coughed when he saw this, and then bowed to the middle-aged woman and said, "According to the following, Brother Haiying not only did nothing but also made a contribution this time, otherwise you will be wiped out." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Hearing this, the middle-aged woman was slightly stunned, and the soft whip in her hand couldn't help but slowly put down, which was very surprising.

Youlan and Liu Haiying also looked at Li Hongyu in surprise, I don't know why Li Hongyu said this, it sounds a little unbelievable.

"Since Master Li left the capital to take charge of the Customs Department this time, regardless of his status as an auxiliary minister, it means that the matter of overseas trade is imperative, and the smuggling merchants and pirates at sea will be swept away."

Under the concerned gaze of the three of them, Li Hongyu pondered for a while and then said in an orderly manner, "Unless you submit to Master Li, Master Li will definitely not tolerate smuggling at sea." ”

"In addition, what Bachelor Li hates the most is to send spies to him, and he hates this kind of behavior, and he will carefully investigate and verify those who are close to him, and he doesn't think that Miss Xin'er's identity can hide from him."

As he spoke, Li Hongyu turned his words and said solemnly, "As far as I know, Mr. Li is not a lustful person, although he has always been pitiful and cherishes jade, but he still knows how to make trade-offs in the face of national affairs, I am afraid that he will use Miss Xin'er to wipe out all the people on Xiaoliuqiu, and never suffer in the future!" ”

"You...... Do you know what Xin'er is going to do? The middle-aged woman was taken aback when she heard this, she never thought that Li Hongyu, an outsider, would know such a secret thing.

"Aunt Lan, I told my husband."

Seeing this, Youlan hurriedly explained, "Even if I don't say anything about Mr. Yi's wisdom, as long as he arrives on the island, he can guess." ”

"You're saying that if it does us any harm if Xin'er comes to Scholar Li's side?"

The middle-aged woman couldn't help but bow slightly when she heard this, she already knew that Li Hongyu was a talented man in the limelight in the Ming Dynasty, so as long as she came to Xiaoliuqiu, she would definitely be able to guess Youlan's intention to participate in the Oiran Conference.

"You're saying that if it does us any harm if Xin'er comes to Scholar Li's side?"

Then, the middle-aged woman looked at Li Hongyu suspiciously, and it was a little difficult to understand the meaning of Li Hongyu's words for a while, and she didn't understand why Li Hongyu said this.

"This is natural, once Master Li knows Xin'er's identity, then he will definitely find a way to deal with you, is it possible that a Ming Fuchen will give up his lofty ambition to trade for the country because of his temporary beauty, and there is a good chance that he will provoke you to fight, and then take the opportunity to take advantage of the fisherman."

Li Hongyu frowned slightly when he heard this, and then explained to the middle-aged lady, "In this case, the official army will take Xiaoliuqiu with the smallest loss, and if it is changed to the next, it will do the same!" ”

"Could it be that his dignified courtiers will be treacherous, not afraid of ruining his reputation?" The middle-aged woman's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and asked in a deep voice.

"Have you ever seen the government show mercy to bandits?" Li Hongyu shook his head when he heard this, and then said in a deep voice, "He is an official, you are a thief, even if he deceives you, it is just a clever trick in the eyes of the outside world, and no one will accuse him of anything." ”

"Li Gongzi, are these things you said reliable?"

The middle-aged woman was speechless for a while when she heard this, Li Hongyu was right, the government can do whatever it takes to suppress bandits, and there is no reason at all, so she asked after being silent for a while.

"Madam, I am also from Huguang, although I have never known Mr. Li, I have friends around me who are familiar with him, so I know some things about him."

Seeing that the middle-aged woman was suspicious, Li Hongyu solemnly explained, "Now think about it, Miss Xin'er fortunately didn't get close to Master Li, otherwise not only will you ruin Miss Xin'er's happiness, I'm afraid you will also be destroyed!" ”

"Aunt Lan, what Mr. said is very true, Mr. is also from Huguang, he must know a lot about Master Li, since he said that Brother Ying has no merits, then Brother Ying is doing the right thing in this matter."

Youlan's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she hurriedly said to the middle-aged woman, it is undeniable that there is a great possibility of the situation Li Hongyu said.

What is particularly critical is that these words were said by Li Hongyu, Li Hongyu is not only a famous genius but also a fellow countryman of Li University, and his words are naturally highly credible.

"No matter what you do this time is right or wrong, you shouldn't go behind our backs, today's family law is to ask you to remember it for a long time, so as not to repeat the mistakes of the past next time!"

The middle-aged woman didn't want to beat Liu Haiying anymore, but now that Li Hongyu gave her a step, she naturally stopped enforcing the family law, and said to Liu Haiying who was kneeling there with a cold expression, "Although the family law has been implemented, what you committed violates the rules set by your Uncle Chen, and what kind of punishment you will receive depends on the result of your father's discussion." ”

"Thank you, mother." Liu Haiying endured the hot pain on his back, thanked the middle-aged woman and stood up, and a lot of cold sweat was already oozing from his forehead.

Although Liu Haiying suffered a skin injury that was not a major problem, the pain caused by it was enormous, which made him have to grit his teeth and bear it.

The middle-aged woman was also forced to be helpless to do this, after all, what Liu Haiying did this time was too out of line, so she always had to give everyone a bigger one, so she made a heavy hand.

Liu Haiying was then helped back to his residence by Youlan, and the best doctor in the town was quickly invited over, and bandaged Liu Haiying's wounds in an orderly manner.

"Don't worry, he's just a skin injury, and he'll be fine after a few days of rest." Li Hongyu was a little unbearable when he saw this, so he stepped forward and comforted the doctor after leaving, after all, the middle-aged woman was Liu Haiying's mother, and it was impossible to kill her.

"Thank you, sir, for the rescue." Youlan came back to her senses, wiped the tears on her cheeks, and hurriedly bowed down to thank Li Hongyu, she was a smart girl, so she naturally knew that Li Hongyu's previous remarks were to save Liu Haiying.

"I'm just telling the truth, there are pros and cons to everything, it depends on which angle you look at it."

Li Hongyu shook his head when he heard this, and said seriously, "Compared with your father, maybe I don't know much about Scholar Li differently than him, Scholar Li is not the kind of person who gives up his principles because of his beauty, and doing so will only be self-defeating and become a pawn of Scholar Li." ”

"As far as the current situation is concerned, if your father wants to settle for all, the only way to take refuge in Scholar Li is to take refuge in his heart as soon as possible, so as to eliminate the mustard in his heart and find a way out for the future."

As he spoke, Li Hongyu's face showed a solemn look, "I just don't know if your father can give up this property that he has worked hard for so many years." ”

"Mr. Li, is that Scholar Li really as powerful as rumored?" At this time, Liu Haiying, whose upper body was covered with bandages, stood up from the chair, came to Li Hongyu's side and arched his hand and said, "Thank you Mr. Li for saving me just now, and if there is a place where Mr. Liu can be used in the future, just speak." ”

Although Liu Haiying despises Li Hongyu's little white face in his heart, he is a lover of personality, and he will repay his kindness, since Li Hongyu relieved him before, he naturally wanted to come to thank him.

"Brother Liu doesn't need to be polite, what you said here is indeed the truth, your unintentional actions not only saved Miss Xin'er, but also saved yourself."

Seeing this, Li Hongyu hurriedly waved his hand, and then said to Liu Haiying in a deep voice, "I heard that there are more than 10,000 sailors in Fuzhou alone, if one day Master Li mobilizes sailors from Shanghai, Fuzhou and Guangzhou to attack Xiaoliuqiu on three sides, does Brother Liu think he can hold it?" ”

Liu Haiying suddenly fell silent when he heard this, although there are tens of thousands of smugglers and pirates on Xiaoliuqiu Island who rely on sea for food, but they are not subordinate to each other, and there are many contradictions, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a rabble.

For most of the smugglers and pirates on the island, Little Ryukyu was just a temporary base for them, without which there was still a place for them to live.

But people like Liu Haiying, who were born and raised and have a large number of industries in the local area, are different, once they leave Xiaoliuqiu, there is nothing, and when the sailors come to attack, they will either resist or surrender, and there is no other choice, even if they can take advantage of the chaos to escape, but what about their families?

Seeing that Liu Haiying fell into silence, a subtle smile appeared on the corner of Li Hongyu's mouth, in fact, Liu Haiying is not the kind of person who is stubborn, and he still knows how to judge the stakes.

Moreover, Liu Haiying has made a great contribution this time, who would have thought that the "Mr. Li" who was captured by Liu Haiying in Xiaoliuqiu was the "Li University" they wanted to get close to in every possible way?
