Chapter 14: True Colors

Du Guangyi has always been careless, where can he see the turbulent dark waves between Du Baozhu and Li Jie. The reason why he refused to leave was because of his instinct to be a big brother, and he deliberately stayed to protect Du Baozhu.

At this time, Du Baozhu personally sent a message to let him go, and he let go of his hand with a smile: "It's a big day here, you go and sit under the porch and wait for me, I'll be back as soon as I see the leopard!" ”

Seeing Lu Er and Du Guangyi leave, Li Jie put his eyes back on Du Baozhu. However, he did not continue to pursue the matter of the liquor store, but asked something else: "I heard that you fell from a horse and injured your head a few days ago?" ”

"It's a fallen horse." Du Baozhu couldn't figure out Li Jie's intentions, and replied cautiously: "The doctor came to the house for diagnosis and treatment, saying that there was blood in his head, and he didn't know what kind of damage it would have." Anyway, God lets the slave live, and the slave will live. ”

She left a living mouth in her words, in case Li Jie really caught any flaws in her words, she would push all the bruises in her head, and Li Jie couldn't find evidence to refute even if he wanted to investigate.

Li Jie didn't seem to hear her intentions, and continued to ask, "Have you found the reason for the fall from the horse?" ”

"My father asked someone and said it was an accident."

"Accident?" Li Jie seemed to have heard some joke, and his expression finally changed: "I was also present on the day you fell from the horse." As far as I know, this was not an accident, but someone did it on purpose. ”

How can it be? Du Baozhu was slightly stunned and fell into doubt.

She is not the kind of optimist who is happy with what happens, so on the day she woke up, she carefully combed through the memories of the original owner and made sure that the original owner had no enemies, so she no longer wanted to fall off the horse.

However, Li Jie said firmly, and seemed to have some conclusive evidence, which made her have to doubt the original conclusion: "Has His Highness found the perpetrator?" ”

"Nature."

"Who is it?"

"Snort-" Li Jie finally laughed, his slightly long eyes swept over Du Baozhu carelessly, as if evaluating goods, and asked lightly: "Now are you willing to tell me about the way to deal with the liquor store?" ”

"......" Du Baozhu, who was waiting to hear the answer, felt like his heartbeat was suddenly choked at this moment, and he almost couldn't breathe.

After a while, he looked at Li Jie: "Does Your Highness plan to exchange the murderer and the slave?" ”

"Didn't I understand enough?"

"Understood." Du Baozhu gritted his teeth secretly. This guy really came prepared, and he actually prepared the chips to bewitch her early in the morning.

But that's what she did.

If the fall was not an accident, the murderer was still by her side. If she can't find out that person first, I'm afraid that she will be the one who will be killed next time.

She didn't want to die, so she could only cooperate with Li Jie: "The slave does have a way to deal with those treacherous businessmen, but this idea is the slave's own foolishness, and it may not work." ”

Li Jie raised his eyebrows slightly: "Let's hear it." ”

"Yes." Du Baozhu spoke reluctantly, and the solution was very simple: "If Your Highness has enough money, you can hire more than 100 drinkers to drink a pot of wine in those wine shops every day. But a person can only drink a pot of wine in one store, and after drinking it, he can't buy it again. ”

"Why is that?"

"The wine sold in the liquor store, no matter how much water is mixed with it afterwards, the first pot of wine that every customer enters the store is not mixed with water. If His Royal Highness only buys a pot of wine, they will be doing a loss-making transaction, and in the long run, it will naturally be difficult to support. ”

Li Jie's eyes flashed, and he suddenly laughed: "This method is really good." But I think you have a better idea, so why don't you say it? ”

"Your Highness Mingjian." Du Baozhu lowered his head sincerely: "The slave also learned to do business after falling from the horse, and it is inevitable that there will be omissions in the idea, but this is indeed the most appropriate way for the slave to think of, please forgive your highness." ”

"Du, Bao, Zhu."

Li Jie's voice slowly approached, and before Du Baozhu could avoid it, a fan handle was already against her chin, holding her up and raising her head: "You seem to be very reluctant to have anything to do with me, why?" ”

"If memory serves, this is the third time we've met, what makes you avoid me like a femme fatale? Well? ”

It was not yet noon, and the sun was blazing.

Du Baozhu seemed to be splashed by a bucket of snow water, and the coolness crawled all over her back, as if she was being targeted by a snake.

Sure enough, this is the true face of Shouwang Li Jie, what taciturn, gentle and polite is an illusion that he deliberately let the world see.

Really, he is the cold-blooded king who can backhand kill the person who sent him to the throne as soon as he ascends the throne!

"Look, you're starting to get scared again." The handle of the fan against Du Baozhu's chin still didn't move, Li Jie lowered his head slightly and looked at Du Baozhu carefully: "That's how it was in the wine shop that day, what are you afraid of?" ”

Li Jie in history, after many failures in clearing the forces of the feudal towns, became moody. often drank in the palace to vent his anger, and when he was drunk, he beat and scolded the palace people, which also caused riots in the palace.

Now it seems that he was born with a sensitive and suspicious temperament. The so-called great change in temperament is simply not able to accept the stimulation of failure and expose his true nature.

Du Baozhu half-lowered his eyes, put on a respectful attitude, and replied seriously: "Your Highness, your status is noble, and you are ashamed of yourself, so you only dare to watch from a distance, and you don't dare to be close to it." ”

"......" Li Jie's eyes became darker and darker, and the clouds and mountains were generally impossible to see.

Just when Du Baozhu thought that he had said the wrong thing, he suddenly put away the handle of the fan and stood in front of Du Baozhu: "I see." ”
