Chapter 645: A Trip to Yangzhou
Su Xiao's face was full of sorrow, but she still couldn't make a decision, she could only talk to Liniang.
Li Niang, if you let me think about taking the exam again, it's best to let me see Lu Li first, and let me ask him what he thinks.
Li Niang thought about it, Xiao Man is a woman after all, and without asking Lu Li, she probably really didn't know what decision she should make, so she nodded and said to Xiao Man.
"That's okay, I'll find Lu Li, and the two of you will have a good chat in this room, but I want to tell you, my red-sleeved move is definitely not a simple place, if you want to escape, dispel this idea as soon as possible, the outside is guarded by martial arts masters, even if Lu Li's kung fu is world-famous, it is impossible to break through so many masters."
When Xiaoman heard Liniang say this, he could only nod helplessly, but he didn't expect Liniang's mind to be so meticulous and see through her thoughts so quickly.
Not long after Li Niang walked out of the door, she only saw Lu Li walking in in an ordinary cloth clothes, although she didn't have the heroic martial arts that she usually wore armor, she was still very handsome and handsome.
When Xiao Man saw Lu Li, he threw himself into his arms and cried, you must know that after this life and death, Xiao Man was deeply heartbroken by Lu Li's fake death, and now it is naturally the happiest thing to see Lu Li.
When Lu Li saw Xiaoman, he was sad and very distressed, and hurriedly wiped away Xiaoman's tears with his fingertips to comfort her.
"What's the matter, don't cry, didn't I come back, you see I'm fine now, nothing happened."
Xiao Man kept pounding Lu Li's chest with his fist.
"You also said that you don't know how sad I was to hear that you were dead, and I almost wanted to go with you at the funeral."
After Lu Li heard it, he was shocked, if Xiao Man really thought that he was dead and ended his life, then he didn't know what he would regret.
"Xiaoman, I'm sorry I made you worried."
When Xiao Man saw Lu Li come back, his heart finally calmed down, and the melancholy mood of the past few days was swept away, replaced by the joy of reunion between husband and wife.
She sighed and pulled Lu Li to sit down on a stool.
"Lu Li, do you know who saved you?"
Lu Li shook his head, he only remembered that three people came out of the underground tunnel that day, this was the first time he saw it in his life, someone could actually dig through the prison, and before he could ask, the three people grabbed him, went down from the tunnel of the prison, and soon walked to the suburbs along the tunnel.
Lu Li asked them on the road who they were, and they only replied that it was the four ghosts of Xiangxi, and Lu Li had naturally heard of the names of the four ghosts of Xiangxi, but he didn't know why the four ghosts of Xiangxi wanted to save him.
After all, they don't have any friendship with each other except Liang Zi.
Seeing Lu Li's puzzled face, Xiao Man hurriedly told Lu Li everything about the matter.
"That's right, the four ghosts of Shanxi have taught Ah Yue before, so we can be regarded as climbing this relationship through Ah Yue, but they saved you because they asked me to make the same deal with them. ’
Hearing that Xiao Man was going to make a deal with them, Lu Li naturally became nervous, Xiao Man didn't understand these things on the rivers and lakes, Lu Li was afraid that they would deceive Xiao Man by these insidious and cunning people.
"What deal did they ask you to do with them?"
"The boss of the four ghosts in Xiangxi, Li Niang, is one of the three wise minds in the world, their hearts are calculated and sought, they are not willing to be only a group of rivers and lakes, but they want to master the whole world, the future king they chose is you, they think you have this talent, and Li Niang wants to accept me as an apprentice, let me help you win the throne, so that we will treat them as guests, and their goal will be achieved."
Hearing this, Lu Li hurriedly stood up, you must know that he is loyal and brave, how can he do such a thing.
"Absolutely not, my Lu family has been loyal and martyred for generations, how can I do such a disloyal and unrighteous thing, now the emperor is the only monarch of Donglan Kingdom, and I, Lu Li, will definitely not take away his throne."
Xiao Man nodded, she knew that Lu Li would definitely be such an answer, but before Lu Li finished speaking, Li Niang suddenly pushed the door and walked in, it seems that Li Niang never left just now, only secretly listening to their conversation at the door.
"Lu Li, I think you are really an elm head, now that Donglan is like this, you still insist on supporting that emperor, I think you just want to kill the people of the world."
As soon as he heard this, Lu Li was very angry, and if he wanted to say that he had been fighting for Donglan Country all his life, no one had ever said anything about himself.
"What do you say? When have I ever been sorry for the people of Donglan Kingdom? ”
Li Niang curled the corners of her mouth.
"Think about it. You have assisted an unwise monarch so that the people cannot live in peace and contentment. Isn't this harming the people, if you don't believe it, then you might as well come with me, and I'll let you see what kind of dire situation Donglan is in now. ”
Lu Li thought about it for a while, anyway, he is now a dead man in the court, and it is not so easy to return to the Lu family, if he is still alive, Meng Buqi will inevitably send troops to attack Donglan Kingdom, and his death has given the emperor a good excuse to delay this matter.
Second, he originally wanted to go to the people to find the traces of Sharia, since Liniang was willing to go with them, then Lu Li naturally couldn't ask for it, and on the way, he could see what kind of intentions the four ghosts of Xiangxi had.
So Lu Li said.
Since the seniors want to go with us, then we will be together, and I don't know where the seniors are going to observe the people's feelings. ’
Li Niang glanced at Lu Li.
"It is said that Yangzhou has a long history of customs and customs, and Yangzhou City is also very lively, no less than Shangjing, why don't we go to Yangzhou?"
Lu Li nodded, he had also thought before that Yangzhou was well connected by land and water, and it was very likely that there would be traces of Saria, so he agreed to it.
Since Liniang's predecessors want to take us to observe the people's feelings, then we will go to Yangzhou.
Li Niang smiled with satisfaction, and did not let them settle down here, and the next day she asked the people recruited by the red sleeves to find a big ship to send them to Yangzhou.
In the evening, Lu Li and Xiao Man naturally rested in the same room, and Xiao Man was still a little worried about Lu Li's decisions.
"Lu Li, do we really want to go with Li Niang?"
Lu Li smiled. Shook Xiao Man's hand and told her not to worry so much.
"It's okay Xiaoman, Li Niang is just a weak woman, even if she has the scheming and resourcefulness of Tongtian, with us, she is not also in danger, you must know that as long as I draw the sword casually, I can cut her under the sword, and I still want to find the trace of Salia, since you told me, Ah Yue has already seen that the corpse was not Shariah's at that time, and now Tongtian Street has also dispersed, indicating that Sharia is likely to be in the world."
Xiao Man nodded and finding Saria is indeed an important thing, after all, the relationship between the two countries is tense now, and Lu Li's death can only delay the war for a little time, but it is not a long-term solution.
"Looks like that's the only way we can do it."
The next day, when they arrived at the dock, Li Niang really found a luxurious ship and sent them to Yangzhou, seeing this luxury boat, Ah Yue was shocked, you must know that she had been in the inland area before, and had been to the desert and southern Xinjiang, but she had never been on the boat.
"It was her first time on a boat, and she was so excited that she was jumping around on the boat."
Li Niang looked at Ah Yue's behavior, how could her juniors and disciples teach such a barbaric girl.
Said with a frown.
"Ah Yue, don't jump, if you jump again, my boat will collapse."
Ah Yue pouted.
"How can I be so heavy, how can a normal person jump the boat down."
Xiao Man looked at the boat prepared by Li Niang, which was more luxurious than the emperor's boat in Jiang'an, the interior was gorgeously decorated and elegant, and the room was filled with flowers and plants, which was fragrant and quiet, making people very comfortable.
On the boat, there are also 12 music girls carried by Li Niang, and these 12 music girls know all kinds of musical instruments, and there is a good musical instrument to form an orchestra.
The music played by the twelve of them together is simply the sound of heaven, so that the whole person lingers in it, and Xiao Man looked at these twelve music girls, all of them are white and snowy, very beautiful.
So she said to Li Niang.
"Li Niang, you are really good, where did you search for these twelve beautiful girls."
Li Niang smiled, although it is twelve girls who seem to be just ordinary Le Ji, but their inner life is not so simple, you must know that they are twelve people who have obtained the true inheritance of the four ghost martial arts in Xiangxi, plus Li Niang's usual training for them, they are all first-class assassins.
Once Liniang has a request for them, they will use their talents to infiltrate the mansions of high-ranking officials to steal information, and when necessary, it is the life of a high-ranking official.
Together, these twelve people are more tacit and powerful, and Li Niang brought them on just in case, you must know that these twelve people together form a formation, which is not inferior to Lu Li's kung fu at all, if they really fight, Lu Li may not be able to gain the upper hand, which can be regarded as Li Niang's guarantee for herself.
Of course, at this time, Su Xiaoman had not yet become Li Niang's apprentice, and Li Niang still would not have such a good relationship with her, so she did not tell her the truth about the twelve Le Ji, but just accepted Xiao Man's praise with a faint smile.
The boat drove for five days, then arrived in Yangzhou, on the boat, saw the scenery of Yangzhou, Ah Yue was infatuated, to say that although Shangjing is luxuriant, but there is no scenery of Yangzhou this landscape in the south of the Yangtze River, the green mountains behind the mist, contrast with each other, and then see the Yangzhou city in front of you, it is really prosperous, it looks much more fun than Beijing
。 As soon as the ship docked in port, Ah Yue ran down and saw that there were many interesting things in the market, and the vendors here actually spoke with a Yangzhou accent.
