Chapter 408: Selfish Woman [Two in One, Ask for a Monthly Pass!] 】
Early this morning, Wang Xiaorou got up and started making medicinal food and walked to her young lady's room.
She entered Beijing with her young lady, and her young lady was very capable, and she bought a house in this huge capital.
Now only she lives here with her own lady and a child that she rescued on the way.
It's just that Wang Xiaorou felt a little strange in her heart, when she got up today, she felt that she was in pain all over her body, as if she had been in a fight.
But she knew she hadn't been in a fight yesterday.
"I don't want to." Wang Xiaorou shook her head, and immediately put this matter behind her, after all, this matter is irrelevant, and the most important thing now is to send the medicinal food to her own miss.
Because Miss didn't know how to hurt her neck yesterday, she still had to make up for her qi and blood, otherwise she would be prone to wind chill in this winter.
However, when she arrived in the room, she found that Miss was packing her bags.
Bazi on the side is also helping.
"Miss?" Wang Xiaorou looked at her young lady and screamed in confusion.
She couldn't understand why her young lady had to pack her bags and look like she was leaving. It doesn't seem like it's been long since I've been in the capital.
"Here, pack up your things, let's go to the martial arts academy today." Wang Shiyan turned his head and said to Wang Xiaorou.
"Miss? Why did we go to the Martial Academy? Wang Xiaorou was a little puzzled in her heart, although the martial arts academy had been established, it had nothing to do with them.
And she already has martial arts, there is no need to go to the martial arts academy to study.
Hearing Wang Xiaorou's words, Wang Shiyan paused, then looked at Wang Xiaorou and said: "I've already thought about it, now the three of us are weak women, so it's better to find a backer, then the martial arts academy is a good place." ”
"This ......" Wang Xiaorou heard this, and felt a little strange in her heart, the three of them have been doing well in the city, aren't they asking for hardship when they go to the martial arts academy? Moreover, in this capital, the law is strict, and no one bullies their own young lady.
Thinking of this, she opened her mouth, ready to ask again.
"Needless to say, I've made up my mind." Seeing that she was still going to speak, Wang Shiyan said helplessly.
Hearing her own young lady say this, Wang Xiaorou nodded and responded.
Then she put the medicinal food aside and began to pack up her things.
Seeing Wang Xiaorou's busy appearance, Wang Shiyan's eyes showed fear and confusion, and then pinched the painting in his sleeve.
The painting, which she had found this morning, depicted a late-night temple, mostly black, with five words faintly on it—Uncle is eccentric.
It's scribbled, but it's clearly written by her.
And it was because of this handwriting that she gradually remembered what happened yesterday, as well as what happened to her uncle.
"This ...... What the hell is going on......" Wang Shiyan bit her lip, and her eyes had a somewhat complicated look.
She took Wang Xiaorou and the others to the martial arts academy this time, just to take refuge there.
Now in the capital, many masters are there, and it is also the safest place except for the imperial city.
As for his uncle's coming, will anyone in the martial arts academy die? Wang Shiyan can't think about it so much, she just wants to ensure the safety of the three of her now.
If she can ensure the safety of the three of herself, it doesn't matter how many people die, she doesn't care.
She...... She is a selfish woman who doesn't want to carry too many things and just wants to protect the people closest to her.
Beijing, January 21, Zhangfu.
In the courtyard of Zhang's Mansion, Li Si was lying on a chair alone, lazy and a little bored.
Recently, he didn't go to the Hanlin Academy, and he didn't do anything to kill demons and ghosts.
Now he seems to have relaxed, and in the eyes of outsiders, he has not done anything recently, like a rich boy who has nothing to do.
However, Li Si had actually been doing things all this time, and he was thinking about how to enter the Imperial City and the Tao Guo Mansion.
But it turned out to be very difficult.
The Imperial City was heavily guarded, and the walls on the periphery of the Imperial City were much higher than those in the outer city.
Li Si approached there several times, and found that this imperial city couldn't even fly into it, let alone him.
And Tao Guogong's Mansion, coincidentally, was near the capital Chenghuang, and every time he wanted to sneak into Taoguo Mansion, he found that his luck had inexplicably dropped.
This indicates that he is likely to be discovered by the capital Chenghuang when he infiltrates the Tao Guo Mansion.
When he couldn't sneak into either place, Li Si wandered around the restaurant nearby, and even went to the white jade building to drink flower wine.
I want to know some information that I can use to plan for the future.
And he did know something.
Li Si heard from others that the previous emperors were very wise and martial, but the older they were, the more mediocre they became.
In private, many people are actually dissatisfied with the current emperor.
This incident also made Li think a lot, when he saw the emperor, he checked his luck, and he was close to death.
And he was also moody, which made him feel that the emperor was a little stupid.
And now it seems that maybe there is something hidden in this, because it is unlikely that the emperor could have become so stupid all of a sudden.
This also made Li think of Tao Ziyu, he knew Tao Ziyu's past, and he had an enmity with the emperor.
If there is anyone in the capital who is most likely to kill the emperor, it is Tao Ziyu.
"Perhaps, the emperor has become more and more mediocre over the years, and it has something to do with Tao Ziyu." Li Si lay on the chair and murmured in his heart.
Then he sighed softly, sat up straight, and looked into the distance with a deep look in his eyes.
"I can't ...... it now"
Li Si knew in his heart that the information of the dragon chair was very useful to him, and it was very likely that it would be a large wave of soul points.
However, now he had no way to go to the imperial court and observe the dragon chair up close.
And what made him even more helpless was that his official position was compiled by the Hanlin Academy, and he was from the sixth grade, because of the Hanlin Academy, he generally had no chance to go to the court.
Li Si took a deep breath, although he had no way to enter the imperial city, he had already sent a message to Tao Luo, wanting to ask him to have a competition.
And he vaguely revealed that he wanted to compete in the Taoguo Mansion.
And today, Tao Luo has sent a message to him, asking him to go to Tao Guogong's Mansion in Youshi.
Now the time is approaching.
"Tao Ziyu, let me see what kind of secret is behind you."
Li Si took a deep breath, tidied up his clothes, picked up the hated bamboo sword from the side, and walked towards the door.
After going out, he continued to walk towards the Tao Guogong Mansion.
He wants to know from Tao Ziyu today what secret he is hiding.
At the same time, you can also confirm whether Tao Ziyu's secret is the dragon chair.
If it's a dragon chair, then maybe you can get the information about the dragon chair today.
This is very beneficial for his future plans.
The weather is very cold, and now few people in the capital go out at this point.
At this time, almost all the people who were still outside were in some restaurants, roasting the fire and chatting.
At this time, most of them talked about the results of the current examination, as well as the three-character scripture printed by engraving, and the news of the Enrong banquet competition.
Among them, the matter of Enrong Banquet is the most talked about, because this is the thing that leads the world's martial arts.
Some people hope that Li Si wins, and some people hope that Mo Qiubai wins, each of them is different.
But there is one thing that is very strange, that is, I hope that Li Si will win, most of them are women. And most of the people who hope that Mo Qiubai will win are some men.
In fact, the reason why some men hope that Mo Qiubai will win is just because of the most fundamental thing of people - jealousy.
Because they found that many women supported Li Si.
"......Huh" Li Si smelled the faint cooking smoke in the air, exhaled softly, and walked like this in this sparsely populated alley.
Its realization here is no different from the dynasty of his previous life, and it may be more prosperous in the Wei capital.
However, he clearly knew in his heart that the two places were different, and that there were demons and ghosts in this world who called themselves gods and lived with people.
They eat human flesh and human souls.
Person...... It's just a breeding thing.
It's just a more subtle way, and even those people think it's normal and happy.
Of course, if those demons and ghosts ate human souls, Li Si would also hesitate in his heart whether those demons and ghosts were sinful.
Because even if demons and ghosts don't eat human souls, human souls will dissipate, and when he comes to this world, there is no reincarnation.
But Li Si clearly knew that they were evil, and they could even slaughter a city and a city for their own selfishness.
And what he will fight against in the future is this weird thing.
Li Si shook his head slightly, he now understood Zhao Wuqi's thoughts at that time, it was too difficult to get this world back on track.
The power required in it is very powerful, and even he, a person with a systematic mall, often feels powerless.
After all, his strength is not obtained out of thin air.
"Anyway, since I'm here, then I'm supposed to do something." Li Si said to himself in his heart.
If there are other people in this world who can change the situation, he himself will think about slacking off, doing something he wants to do, and live better than anyone else.
But he can't, and if he really gives up, there's a good chance that the world won't be saved.
Li Si took a deep breath and continued to walk towards the Tao Guo Mansion.
At the same time, some gossip next to him also came to his ears.
The woman is okay, there are many boastful words, but some men's words are a little unbearable, most of which are words such as "Rabbit Lord" and "Little White Face".
Whoever hears such words will have a disturbance in their hearts.
Li Si is indeed a little irritable, but it is not these people who are irritable, but the pushers behind the irritability.
He'd found out about it before, because it was so unusual.
Because not long ago, some rumors had appeared, most of which were about some fictional and unsightly things about Li Si himself, and they were widely spread.
Therefore, he did go to Zhang Yuan to check the driving force behind this.
After checking, Li Si also knew who was behind the obstruction.
It's Mo Qiubai.
Mo Qiubai wanted to kill him in one fell swoop at the Enrong banquet to deter the rivers and lakes.
And in order for him to become famous before the Enrong feast, he can do whatever he does.
Of course, there was also the emperor's acquiescence, so even if Li Si went to the yamen, the yamen was still pressing, and there was no intention to check at all.
At the same time, in addition, most of the people who like Li Si are women and the like, so there are also some men who spread these rumors as true because of jealousy, in order to obtain their own satisfaction.
The human heart is so easy to be evil.
Over time, Li Si didn't want to respond to this matter, because in his eyes, Mo Qiubai was already a dead man.
That is, when he was thinking about this matter, he soon arrived on the way to the Tao Guo Mansion.
And as soon as he arrived, he was stunned, because in the distance ahead, he saw a person sneakily running out of the vicinity of the Taoguo Mansion.
The man's face was very complicated, a little surprised, a little frightened, and then he stumbled to a carriage and got into it.
As he got into the carriage, the carriage immediately galloped through the city, and soon passed by Li Si.
"This is the crown prince?" Li Si's brows furrowed slowly, his eyesight was very good, even if he was very far away, he could see the person's face.
That is the crown prince of Wei now, Yin Zheng.
It's just that Li Si couldn't understand why this prince came here.
"Is it possible that you are ready to rebel?" Li Si's face was a little strange, and now that the prince was with the first powerful minister in the country, he couldn't help but think of this piece.
But that's none of your business.
Li Si shook his head and smiled, who sits on the emperor or not, what does it have to do with him.
Changing an emperor is just a ghost for a puppet.
Subsequently, he didn't want to do this, so he waited in place, staggering the time when the prince left.
Then, Li Si continued to walk towards the Tao Guo Mansion.
When he arrived at the palace, he approached the gate, picked up the knocker on the door and knocked on it.
"Who?"
With Li Si's knock on the door, a voice of questioning came from inside.
Then the door slowly opened, revealing a face that was a little red from the cold.
"I'm Li Si, and I'm here to compete with Taoluo." Li Si said to this person with a smile.
Hearing Li Si's words, the servant was slightly stunned, then looked him up and down, and hurriedly smiled: "It turned out to be Grandmaster Li, please come in, please come in, the master has already ordered you to come, and specially asked me to wait here." ”
As he spoke, he opened the door and led Li Si into the mansion.
Seeing this, Li Si also walked in.
As he walked in, the servant closed the door and said to Li Si with a smile, "Sect Master Li, I'll take you over, our master is waiting for you in the backyard now." ”
With that, he took the lead in front of him.
Seeing this, Li Si followed, and at the same time secretly thought to himself in his heart, it seems that this Tao Ziyu also knew that he was coming.
It is estimated that the reason why Tao Luo agreed to compete with him is also because of Tao Ziyu's meaning.
"But it's just right." Li Si took a deep breath, and his eyes gradually became sharp.
This time, he was looking for Tao Ziyu.
Then, Li Si followed behind the servant, and walked around to a spacious clearing.
And here, he found that this open space was clearly a martial arts training ground.
He was a little surprised in his heart, he never thought that Tao Ziyu, the head of the civil officials, would actually prepare a martial arts training ground at home, which was a bit abnormal.
At the same time, Li Si swept towards the martial arts training ground, and saw that not far away, there was a thin old man drinking tea next to the martial arts training ground, and next to him, a middle-aged man was standing.
This is Tao Ziyu and Tao Luo.
At the same time, in the martial arts training ground, there was a pair of girls with identical appearances and slender bodies who were competing with swords.
These two people, Li Si also knows, are the twin sisters who attacked him at the beginning.
"Sect Master Li, go over, it's not for one of my servants to go in." The servant smiled at Li Si, then put his hand in his sleeve and turned away.
"Sect Master Li, you're here, come here."
At this time, Tao Ziyu also found Li Si and was smiling and waving to greet him.
