Chapter 29 (Li Li's Branch)

Li Li rarely drinks alcohol, and this time he drank heavily with him on duty, and he had long since stopped drinking, so he didn't get drunk on the spot because he was carrying it all in one breath. But even if the internal force was quite effective, Li Li was still drunk and confused. At this moment, he was drunk and worried, and he didn't have the ability to deal with everything around him with half-truths and half-truths just now, and all he thought about was his life experience, his hatred, and his little leaves.

But how did Xue Yue know about the fluctuation in his heart at the moment? She saw him walking crookedly, drunk to the fullest, and a mask was pushed loose by him to the side of his face, revealing most of his pale and thin face, with a look of indifference and disgust. She couldn't help but feel a little pity in her heart. Seeing Li Li's true appearance for the first time, I couldn't imagine that this stubborn and shy young man looked quite thoughtful, and he had a bit of the character of a scholar of Wei and Jin.

She was thinking about it, when suddenly Li Li didn't stand firmly, so she bumped into him. She instinctively held him up, and the smell of his wine stained her sleeves, causing her heart to throb suddenly. She grew up in Cloudsdale since she was a child, and she has seen a lot of bold men, and she has also developed an informal temper. But at this moment, for some reason, she was not as natural as usual, but had a faint nervousness.

Li Li had never drunk so much wine, and the wine was so strong that it was inevitable that he would walk unsteadily. But when Xue Yue held him, he suddenly became sensitive, gently parted his arm, refused to be supported by Xue Yue, gritted his teeth and insisted on walking by himself.

Xue Yue was worried about him, thinking that he was embarrassed, so he took the initiative to hold his arm again. But I didn't want to, and was thrown away by Li Li again. Li Li staggered to the railing of the trees next to the road, and walked forward step by step, ignoring Xue Yue.

This move is clearly a deliberate attempt to embarrass himself. Xue Yue was a little dissatisfied, but it was inconvenient for Li Li to join the gang at the beginning of the year, so he just said coldly: "Do you know where to go?" ”

Li Li paused, did not look back, and said from his lips: "Don't bother." ”

No matter how deep the cultivation is, ordinary people can't stand this repeated rejection, let alone Xue Yue, who has always been arrogant.

"Mr. Yeli, I respect you as a chivalrous man, but it doesn't mean that you can ignore my kindness again and again. Since you are already from Cloudsdale, you are my subordinate, and you must obey my orders. If you honor me, I will honor you. If you don't give me face, I'll just follow the rules. ”

Suddenly, I heard Li Liha's strange laughter, and when I turned around, my smile was indifferent and blunt: "Thank you Miss Xue for introducing and cultivating, and you will not forget the kindness of the girl when you leave at night." He has a place to get down to him during the day, and when he leaves at night, as a member of Cloudsdale, he should obey his orders. But Ye Li just wants to be quiet for a while. It's late at night, men and women don't kiss, girls are in the boudoir, it's inconvenient to send each other, please go back. ”

I couldn't see the fluctuations in her heart, but I saw the corner of Xue Yue's mouth pulling: "Excellent." She turned and walked back, never looking at Li Li again. Li Li saw her turn around and leave, she was also quite irritable, and she didn't want to find any side room, so she walked to a gazebo, leaned on the pillar, and fell asleep gently.

Li Li stayed at Xue Yang's place for almost a month. In this month, as a new force in Cloudsdale, Li Li has attracted the attention of countless people. Many people know that Li Li heroically saved the United States and resisted Yelu Xiye's deeds, and they can't help but praise his martial arts and become famous, which naturally attracts many martial arts people to challenge. Of course, because Li Li is too indifferent and unruly, naturally there are many people who don't like his character, and from time to time provoke fights in the name of martial arts.

Li Li knew that his status was not high, and he didn't want to make more enemies, even if those people put their swords on Li Li's neck, Li Li didn't bother to fight them. Although the disciples of Cloud City are a little arrogant, but after all, most of them are first-class heroes in the rivers and lakes, no matter how unconvinced everyone is, they also leave half room for friendship with the same family, after all, Li Li has no major crimes, if he is punished by the sword because of the battle of will, it is not the disciple of Cloud City.

In view of Li Li's mysterious background, some people have secretly investigated who he is sacred. But Li Li himself has no wealthy background, and he deliberately conceals it, all the investigations about him always start with curiosity and finally come to naught. In the midst of different opinions, Li Li has become a legend shrouded in aura, some people say that it is divine, and some people scoff at it and feel that it has no real knowledge.

Xue Yue, who introduced Li Li to Cloudsdale, remained silent. Except for the routine provision of food and clothing for Li Li on the face, she ignored the rest, contrary to her enthusiasm for introducing Li Li that day.

The vast majority of the disciples in Cloudsdale are men, and even if there are a few women, their way of thinking is quite worldly. Seeing that Xue Yue's attitude towards Li Li was very different, and he didn't know what was going on, he couldn't help but put the relationship between the two on the relationship between men and women. There are all gossiping lovers, but subordinates can only talk about the taboo matter of the boss, and only three or five people can chat privately after the dinner at the wine table, and no one dares to bring it up and discuss it openly. As for dealing with Li Li, it was even more sensitive.

So a person like Li Li with a self-contained personality and a sensitive identity naturally has no friends to communicate with him about major matters. Fortunately, Li Li was born in a family of merchants, although he has lived a good life since he was a child, but he has also learned a little bit of the ability to observe words and colors, general affairs information, just listen to rumors in a few words, he can roughly infer the dynamics of the situation, and his work is mostly in the post station and the village, not often stay in the village, so life is still passable.

Li Li's every move was watched by Xue Yang. Xue Yang has read countless people and knows people well, although Li Li's gossip is quite rumored, but they are all unsubstantiated, they are all trivial, and they cannot affect Xue Yang's judgment. The only thing that worries Xue Yang is Li Li's mentorship. He also sent his cronies to the rivers and lakes to investigate, but they were all sunk in the sea. Xue Yang is busy with affairs on weekdays, where does he have the heart to follow and monitor a small messenger. As long as Li Li is not very wrong, he will turn a blind eye.

In the past few days, all the work assigned to Li Li by Xue Yang has been completed neatly and properly. Xue Yang saw that Li Li was able to do things, and he was very satisfied in his heart. I happened to hear people around me talk about the scandal between Li Li and Xue Yue, although I was a little unhappy in my heart. But as early as when Xue Yue was young, Xue Yang and Yang Yizhao's parents made a marriage alliance between the two. And his beloved daughter and Yang Yizhao's childhood sweetheart are also fond of each other. Even if Yang Yizhao is amorous, but after all, he is the master of the Divorced Pavilion, his face is red, he is right, and his appearance matches his beloved daughter. In contrast, Li Li is just a Jianghu cloth, with no power and no appearance, and his temperament is cold and arrogant. I love my daughter and are pampered, how can I have any sparks with this iceberg wood.

However, Yang Yizhao's whereabouts have been erratic in recent years, and he has always been biased towards the Creation Building, and Xue Yang has long been dissatisfied. Seeing that the selection of Ling Yan's close servants is approaching, and the momentum of the creation building to seize power is very loud, in order to consolidate the position of Cloud City in the Heavenly King Gang, it is inevitable that the beloved daughter will charge into battle in the officialdom power struggle. If this is the case, if the beloved daughter has any entanglement with Yang Yizhao, it will be unfavorable. He had the heart to stop this early marriage contract, but he just missed his beloved daughter and didn't want to make it public. It just so happened that Mr. Li had such an affair with his beloved daughter this night, and he could also be a smokescreen for a while, so Xue Yang only let it develop and did not make it explicit.

Regarding the selection of Shangling Yan's close attendants, although Li Li is a newcomer, he has also heard a lot of news and knows that this is a major event in Cloud City recently. He secretly inquired and found out that it was a candidate for the waiting list of close servants in Cloud City, and it was a woman surnamed Xia. The Xia family in Yunzhong City had a marriage with the Zhaoyin court, so his daughter was also cultivated since childhood, and her style was extraordinary. The Xia family is also an active candidate, and it seems that they have the intention to win the championship in one fell swoop.

However, as the day of the selection of the attendants approached, Li Li accidentally heard Xue Yang inadvertently reveal that he seemed to intend to let Xue Yue run for the election on behalf of Cloudsdale. He understood that the Xia family's alternative was a smokescreen to the outside world, and he only didn't know what Xue Yang said at the moment. When I finished working all night and went back to my room to rest, I thought of a plan.

At first, I thought that as long as I entered the Tianwang Gang, I would always be able to find out the whereabouts of Xiao Yezi. Who knows that although Cloud City belongs to the Heavenly King Gang, it has its own system. Except for Xue Yang, most people have no direct connection with Shang Lingyan. Li Li has been here for a few days, and he hasn't even heard Ren Qingmei's name mentioned a few times, let alone Xiao Yezi. But this time, the four heavenly kings will definitely meet, and Ren Qingmei and Yang Yizhao will definitely attend at that time. In this case, why not take the opportunity of the selection and go to Lingyan in the bright light?

The goal has been set in his heart, but he must hide it deep in his heart, so as not to suspect that he has other plans. The attendants participated in the election, and the alternate attendants of Cloudsdale were also escorted by the sword-wielding palace people as a rule. But what the sword-wielding palace people escorted was the smokescreen of the Xia family, and Xue Yue, who was really running for the election, naturally wanted to find another reliable cronie to escort him on his behalf. It's just that who will take on this task is up in the air.

Li Li was active in the end, and quickly thought of the reason why the list of cronies had not been decided. If Xue Yue really wants to run for election, then Xue Yang will definitely prefer a meritorious veteran to accompany his beloved daughter, such a simple choice, why shouldn't he use it? It must be because the status of the old ministers is too eye-catching, and their every move is eye-catching, which is not conducive to the smooth implementation of the smokescreen strategy. However, if you choose a newcomer with no name, it will inevitably seem to despise this selection too much, which will hurt the dignity of Cloud City. Thinking that Xue Yang was also in between, trying to find a middle choice, it was difficult for a few days.

For Xue Yang, it was a difficult problem. But for Li Li, the answer is very certain. It's yourself, only yourself.

First of all, I have low qualifications and low positions, and my every move is not too noticeable. Secondly, he is capable, hardworking and willing to work, and has been initially recognized by Xue Yang. Coupled with his unique resume of bravely saving Miss Xue from fire and water, the name of "Hero Saving Beauty" is tied up and spread abroad, and it is not nameless. As long as it is used reasonably, it may not become a kind of identity blessing for yourself.

He heard that during the period when the attendants were in charge, the attendants should not be too close to the people who split the helm, let alone the private affairs between men and women. He and Xue Yue have no personal relationship, and they don't disdain to do bad things that dedicate themselves to glory. But after being a businessman, in order to raise his value, it is not impossible to make a small use of public opinion.

From the next day, Li Li deliberately fell silent, and even Xue Yang rarely went, only wandering for a long time every night in the gazebo where Xue Yue sent him back to his room for the first time, with a lonely and cold expression. Not long after, when Li Li quietly passed by the wine shop of those men again, he heard the following rumors: "Do you know, I think this kid is very interesting to our Miss Xue. Look at Miss Xue's attitude when these two people came, it was called enthusiasm! Later, the two didn't know what kind of quarrel they had, but they must have drunk too much at night to show Miss Xue's face, how could Miss Xue be so noble? Ignore the kid at the moment. However, the girl has a heart - gold is not as good as a lover, how can Miss Xue let it go? Send a meal every three or five times, and leave the night to serve this kid obediently. Everyone knows that the night is away from that kid's stinky shelf, and he refuses to follow Miss Xue. Miss Xue's status, where can she put her face? If you don't stay overnight, this kid will never forget Miss Xue's appearance and moonlight, and he sighs every day in the pavilion that Miss Xue gave him. You said that these two people, if they are interesting, they are together, what are you tossing! ”

Whenever she heard this, there was always a smile shining in the corners of Li Li's narrow eyes. Silence at the moment and leave quietly.

A few days later, Li Li was summoned by Xue Yang. When Xue Yang saw him, he smiled slightly, and didn't say much, only secretly arranged for Li Li to escort Xue Yue to the election.

When Li Li was ordered to walk out of the Juyi tent, he finally let go of the burden of the past few days, took a long breath of relief in his chest, and was temporarily steady.

He was sure that he was not the son-in-law in Xue Yang's heart, and once the scandal between himself and Xue Yue became big, Xue Yang would definitely have to stop it. ordered him to escort Xue Yue to the election, which was not only to imply that he would cut off his love thread, and that the toad should not think about eating swan meat; It is also to warn everyone that Mr. Yeli and Xue Yue are innocent and have nothing to do with each other; The most important thing is that apart from the people in Cloud City, who would have thought that a man who "loves" Xue Yue and Xue Yue would appear near Shanglingyan, not to elope, not to have a tryst, but to "cut love" and choose a close attendant? This plan of killing three birds with one stone is calculated by Xue Yang's love for his daughter. This time, he calculated correctly and made the right bet. Thinking that he was about to see Ren Qingmei, the sad eyes that were still "trapped in love" in the hall suddenly became fierce in the sun.

On the day of the selection, Li Li came to Xue Yue's door early in the morning to wait. He came very early, and when he walked to the door of Xue Yue's boudoir, it was a coincidence that a gust of wind blew through the window facing Xue Yue's boudoir. Coincidentally, Li Li glanced at the beautiful woman in the wide mirror in the room, with thin clothes and lazy combing her hair.

In all fairness, Xue Yuezhen is also a stunning figure that Li Li has never seen in his life. At this moment, the beauty's long hair hung down to the ground, her makeup was elegant, her clothes were loose, and a pair of straight and long legs loomed in the half-open robe. I saw her combing her hair and arranging her makeup in the mirror from time to time, and her face was cold and lonely. It's really picturesque and has its own fairy rhyme.

If Yang Yizhao or other men are replaced, I am afraid that I will already be excited. But when Li Li saw this scene, her heart was like a stone, and she couldn't show any interest.
