Since living in Niubei Village, the little scholar Qiu Dong and the eagle warrior Zhao Qian have completely let go of their nature, either going to the river to fish and catch shrimp, or going to the mountains to climb trees and dig birds' nests, and even poke the hornet's nest under the eaves of Ergou's house with a bamboo pole.

Unexpectedly, a hornet with no long eyes actually stung Li Jingsi's head, causing a big bag to bulge directly on his forehead.

At that time, Li Jingsi was playing chess alone in the shade of the grape trellis, and saw that he was holding a sunspot in his hand, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he kept undecided.

After Zhao Qian and Qiu Dong poked the hornet's nest, they hid in the house, leaving only a crack in the door, and secretly looked outside.

Qiu Dong suddenly remembered that his master was still playing chess outside, and said secretly: "It's over, it's trouble again!"

Immediately afterwards, a scream sounded in the courtyard, startling the Li couple who were cooking on the fire in the stove room.

The two of them hurriedly ran out of the stove room, only to find that a swarm of wasps had surrounded Li Jingsi.

After all, the old couple are ordinary people, looking at those wasps as big as their thumbs, they don't dare to step forward easily.

Fortunately, Xu Cheng happened to come back from outside, and when he saw Li Jingsi's situation, he directly slashed towards the grape trellis with one palm.

A powerful force shook all the hundreds of wasps to death, but it did not hurt Li Jingsi in the slightest, and the strength was just right.

However, Li Jingsi was still stung by a wasp that did not have long eyes, and a pustule the size of a green jujube soon bulged out on her forehead.

Xu Cheng blamed himself for this, shouted loudly, and directly called the two troublebreakers in front of him.

He couldn't bear to scold Lord Li's scholar, so he had to sprinkle all his anger on his subordinates: "Okay, you are Zhao Gan, who has more than enough success and more than failure, you usually don't do your job, and now you have brought Lord Li's scholar bad, look at the good things you did, if I come late, Lord Li will not be stung by a wasp?"

Zhao Qian didn't care about his scolding, and secretly looked at the big bag on Li Jingsi's forehead, and couldn't help but want to laugh.

On the contrary, it was the little scholar Qiu Dong, shrugging his head and feeling uneasy.

Li Jingsi covered the big bag on her forehead with her hand, and said with a wry smile: "Xu Yingshou, they are also unintentional, so forget about this matter." It's just a pus, out of the way, when I was a child, I was even more naughty than the two of them, and I wasn't stung once or twice, and I have long regarded this kind of thing as a daily occurrence. ”

When Zhao Qian heard his words, he couldn't help but have a little more affection for Li Jingsi.

To be honest, when he first saw this waiter of the Ministry of Rites, he couldn't help but feel a little contempt in his heart.

Because in his impression, the more upright a person is on the surface, the more treacherous and flattering he is in his bones.

But after getting along with each other for a while, he found that Li Jingsi was the unity of knowledge and action, consistent with words and deeds, and was indeed a rare good official in the imperial court.

Xu Cheng heard Li Jingsi personally intercede for the two of them, so he had to dispel the idea of teaching Zhao Qian a hard lesson.

However, the two troublemakers were punished: they were not allowed to take half a step out of the house today, and knelt in front of the statue of the Stove King and thought about it.

Outside the courtyard.

Li Jingsi sat at the stone table under the grape trellis, listening carefully to the spy report that the eagle head Xu Cheng had just gotten.

At this time, his forehead was tightly wrapped in gauze, like a wounded soldier who had just come down from the battlefield, and his appearance was really funny.

But fortunately, after he applied Xu Cheng's special powder to the wound, he soon lost the stinging sensation.

Xu Cheng sat opposite Li Jingsi, his expression was very serious.

"Lord Li, I just received the news that the Jindan Realm swordsman who I secretly sent to intercept and kill the prince of the Nandao Kingdom has been killed. ”

After hearing the news, Li Jingsi did not have the slightest expression of surprise.

He pinched a sunspot on the chessboard and said lightly: "I have long expected that the Nandao Kingdom side will definitely not be so careless, and only let the two Dongfu realm monks of the Ziwei Sect escort His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Xu Cheng replied: "That's true, but I didn't expect that the chess piece arranged in the shadows turned out to be the deacon elder who was very hidden. We thought that the chess piece would be Nangong Yan, the daughter of the Sect Master of the Ziwei Sect. ”

Li Jingsi put the chess pieces into the jade jar and asked aloud, "What is the origin of that deacon elder?"

Xu Cheng pondered for a moment and replied, "I initially thought he was a certain elder of the Star Sect of the Southern Dao Country, after all, the Ziwei Sect is the lower sect of the Star Sect, and it is also extremely reasonable to send an elder over to secretly control every move of the Lower Sect. But later, according to some clues, I found out that he turned out to be the number one spy in the embroidered clothes gate of Nandao. ”

Li Jingsi couldn't help but be a little surprised.

No wonder that person hid so deeply, I didn't expect his true identity to be the embroidered imperial history.

Like the Eagle Head, the Embroidered Imperial Historian is the highest commander of the spy agency, and is responsible for collecting all kinds of intelligence information.

Among them, the most famous spy agencies are the Eagle House of the Northern Confucian Kingdom, the Embroidered Clothes Gate of the Southern Dao Kingdom, and the Imperial City Division of the Western Liberation Kingdom.

However, like the embroidered clothes gate, it is indeed quite courageous to let a number one spy like the embroidered clothes Yushi infiltrate the enemy country with his own danger.

If this embroidered imperial history is accidentally caught by the enemy during the incubation period, the consequences will be unimaginable.

After all, every spy of a spy agency has countless hidden information hidden on his body, either about the foundation of people's livelihood or about the layout of border defense, no matter what kind of intelligence is leaked, it is a huge loss for his country.

Xu Cheng leaned forward and said in a low voice: "Master Li, since we have figured out the identity of that person, should we send someone to capture that embroidered imperial history, this is a good opportunity to obtain important information about the southern country." ”

Li Jingsi pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "No." It would have worked if we had captured that man before the prince of Nandao entered the border, but now, the big spy has surfaced and has become the personal guard of His Royal Highness the prince of Nandao. If we forcibly detain that embroidered imperial historian, Nandao will definitely take this opportunity to send troops in a big way. ”

"Well, I didn't think it through enough. Xu Cheng sighed and replied.

Li Jingsi asked, "Is there any other news?"

"The Book Sword Sect has already arrived at Zhenlong Mountain, and threatened to ask the Sword Slaughter God Sect. ”

Li Jingsi nodded, thinking that this was good news.

If Lu Jianping, a sword cultivator in the Jindan Realm, can defeat Chongyang, maybe the God Slaughter Sect will really be demolished from the Ancestral Master Hall, and it will disappear in the Northern Confucian Kingdom from then on.

At that time, Confucianism can naturally take back the Confucian immortal sword openly.

As for the territory of Zhenlong Mountain, Li Jingsi had no choice but to avoid difficulties and help the imperial court to get it, which is called the competition between the snipe and the clam and the profit.

Thinking of this, Li Jingsi couldn't help laughing.

It's just that his smile immediately involved the wound, and he made an 'ouch' sound of pain, and reached out to cover the pus on his forehead.
