Chapter 217: A Misunderstanding

Under Li Yu's questioning, Li Da had no choice but to tell everyone about Baoyu's loss back then. Although this matter is not faceless, there is nothing unpleasant.

"I think that when there was a thief in Zhaowang's Mansion, this piece of jade was stolen by a big thief. At that time, I chased after him, fought the thief for 300 rounds, and lost both. The thief was very good, but he was wounded by me, so he left all his belongings and fled with only this piece of jade. At that time, I was also seriously injured and unable to chase after me, if it had not been for the arrival of the emperor's brother Li Jing to scare the thief away, I am afraid that I would have died at the hands of the thief. Although I don't want to make this public, many people know about it, but I don't make it clear. I usually say that this piece of jade is lost...... The Tang Li family is a person who loves jade, this piece of jade lost my face, although I have never sent someone to find it, but I have always felt regretful, I can't imagine that today it is returned to the owner, I am so happy. ”

Silly, all those who have heard the story of the old banyan tree are stupid. This piece of jade was not left to her by Li Da, and Li Da had already lost this piece of jade. No wonder Zongxin kept saying that there were many loopholes in this story, and as Zongxin expected, the old banyan tree was lying.

But in retrospect, it is not known that perhaps Li Da lied.

Li Yu asked curiously: "Third uncle, I heard that you had a big fight with my father when you were fighting for the throne back then, is there such a thing?"

"How can there be such a thing? We didn't fight at all. Brother Huang's martial arts are so high, we don't have to fight. What's more, when the prince is so happy and happy, do you see how tired your father and emperor have become? I spend all day drinking, being a hands-off uncle, and the emperor's brother is fighting in the south and the north, and also has to deal with the government affairs, is it really interesting to be an emperor? I can't see it. ”

Li Da's words made everyone dumbfounded, but after thinking about it carefully, what is so good about being an emperor? He was so tired that he died, not to protect the foundation of the Li family, but the rest of the Li family lived happily, but he was the only one who was tired and half dead.

But it also depends on the person, Li Jing is willing to resist this burden, and he likes the feeling of being the emperor calling the wind and rain. Of course the emperor is good, but being a prince is not bad.

"Why are you asking this? Could it be that this has something to do with Baoyu's lost recovery?"

Li Yu looked at Zhao Kuangyin, Zhao Kuangyin then nodded, and Li Yu retold the story of the old banyan tree. Hearing this, Li Dadu almost rushed up and beat himself, but he didn't expect that he was so bad. But if you think about it, you didn't do it yourself......

Li Da said depressedly: "I didn't give this piece of treasure to anyone, this piece of treasure was really stolen by a big thief, and the royal brother can testify to this." You may have heard my analysis, maybe the thief was injured by me, and then he was rescued by the girl, who was embarrassed to say that he was a thief, so he took the name of my king. After leaving, he planned to make another vote, but because his injuries did not heal, he was killed while stealing, so he did not return to the village to marry the girl. The girl believed the thief's words, so she ran to Zhaowang's Mansion to find me, but I was already married at that time, so I had hatred in my heart, do you see my analysis right?"

What a waste of talent...... With such good analytical skills, he shouldn't be a prince, he should be a catcher.

Zhao Kuangyin and his entourage understood the direction of the matter, this was not a mess at the beginning, but a misunderstanding. The thief didn't identify himself, so the girl kept misunderstanding. Why didn't you marry later, maybe when was she really killed, and you have no chance to marry if you want to.

Li Yu said: "Third uncle, do you know what the thief's name is?"

Li Da shook his head: "I really don't know this, his martial arts are really good, he can seriously injure me, but I also seriously injured him, my martial arts are not bad." But at that time he was covered in a black veil, and I didn't recognize his appearance, and even if I did, I might not know who he was. Anyway, I know that this person's light skills are very good, and his internal strength is also very good. ”

"So, it's just an ordinary thief. Li Yu said: "With the third uncle's martial arts, he can be seriously injured, and I believe that he is not a great person, and it is estimated that he has no name in the rivers and lakes." It's hard to do, like this little thief from more than ten years ago, who knows what his name is? Even if he dies, no one cares. ”

"What do you mean by that? Is my martial arts so bad?"

Li Yu immediately nodded: "Anyway, you can't take my ten moves." ”

Li Da really can't refute this, although Li Yu is blind, he has a very high talent in martial arts, and he listens to sound and distinguishes position as if he has eyes, not to mention ten moves, Li Da doesn't even believe that he can pick him up for five moves. If he wasn't Li Yu's third uncle, I'm afraid he would die within ten moves.

Although Li Hongji and Li Hongmao's talents are not first-class, they are not too bad. And with the guidance of famous teachers, their martial arts are not as strong as Li Yu, but they are not too weak. It's just content with pleasure, so it's a little slack on martial arts.

Now Li Hongji and Li Hongmao together are not Li Yu's opponents, which makes the two brothers very faceless. But now it's okay, Xi'er stole the secret book of the wedding dress magic skill from Bai Yunfei, and Li Hongji has asked the masters in the house to start practicing, and then convey their martial arts to himself little by little, it won't take long for his martial arts to be far superior to the third brother, and at that time, he won't have to worry about the third brother taking the throne.

"Congjia, the third uncle is an elder anyway, can you give him a little face?" Li Hongji said: "Although the third uncle has poor martial arts, his character is not good, he likes to talk nonsense, he is ugly and has no self-knowledge, and he seduces women from good families all day long, but he is our elder after all, save some face when he speaks, and say twenty tricks next time." Third uncle, are you okay, your face is ugly. Congjia, look at what you have made the third uncle angry. ”

Everyone looked at Li Congjia with disdain, it was clear that he made Li Da angry like this, and even said that it was Li Yu's problem. If his words just now were someone else, Li Da might really turn his face. But this is his nephew, Li Da knows this bastard boy, he has no intentions, but the truth he tells is harsh. What's more, he is still under the Tang East Palace, how can he have a dispute with him?

Li Jing's martial arts are not very good in his generation, only Li Jing's martial arts are passable. The reason is very simple, they are content with pleasure, and there is no famous teacher to guide them, so their martial arts are not up to par, and it is difficult to even protect themselves when they meet real masters.

However, Li Yu's martial arts are not bad in this generation, Li Yu worked hard by himself, visited famous teachers all over the world to learn a good martial arts. Li Hongji and Li Hongmao are because their master Huang Fuhui supervises day and night, otherwise they would not have the skills they have today. However, Huang Fuhui is too old and no one dares to care about them after returning to his hometown to retire, and they have not been practicing martial arts for as long as they have eaten recently.

Li Da said depressedly: "Alas~ Come on, anyway, you will be the king of Tang in the future, and I don't want to raise the bar with you." This matter has nothing to do with me, but this piece of jade is indeed mine, and now there is no opinion on the return of the object to its original owner. ”

Li Da has not let go of this piece of jade since he saw it, the Tang Li family is a person who loves jade, seeing this peerless jade lost and recovered, how could Li Da not be excited?

Zhao Kuangyin immediately shook his head and said: "No, this is what we worked hard to get from a tree demon, I'm afraid it's not so easy for you to take it away with a word." What's more, we still have a promise to the old tree spirit, and this piece of treasure can't be given to you for the time being. ”

"I'll give you the money. ”

"How much?"

This price is really hard to say, gold is priceless and jade is priceless, let alone this peerless jade. But Li Da was originally the owner of this piece of jade, but unfortunately this piece of jade was stolen at the beginning, and now he has to spend money to buy this piece of jade back, how much is the right amount to say?

Li Da first appraised this piece of jade, although it is a peerless good jade, but now there are not many people who have the money to buy this piece of jade in troubled times, not to mention that there is a Li character engraved on it, and he can only sell it to people surnamed Li. Originally, this piece of jade was worth five thousand taels of gold, but for many reasons, it was not inappropriate to give a little less.

"How about 10,000 taels of silver?"

Zhao Kuangyin said ruthlessly: "King Zhao, then you can make money, this piece of jade can be resold at more than this price, but you are the old owner of this jade, let you spend money to buy back your own things...... Too much is not appropriate. It's just 10,000 taels of silver, but exchange it for gold for me to carry. ”

"According to what you said, a thousand taels of gold will be delivered to the Dugu Valve tomorrow. Li Da took his treasure jade and looked at it again and again, Li Hongji and Li Hongmao around him also looked at it carefully, Li is a person who loves jade, this piece of jade is absolutely first-class regardless of the material and workmanship, and there is no better and more beautiful jade in the world.

Li Hongji and Li Hongmao were also greedy when they looked at it, such a good piece of jade really wanted to have it. But now Li Da is still the king of Tang Zhao, and he can only occupy this piece of jade after his death. The question is, when will Li Da die? At his age, it is estimated that he will have to wait for several decades, and if he wants to see this piece of jade in the future, he can only go to the Zhaowang Mansion.

Although Li Hongji and Li Hongmao like Hu Lai, they are not too stupid. They won't offend their third uncle because of a piece of jade. If you want to extort tens of thousands of taels of silver from the third uncle, the third uncle will not feel distressed, and he will not offend him because of this. But if you want to grab this piece of jade in exchange for 10,000 taels of silver, I'm afraid that the third uncle will hate him for the rest of his life.

A gentleman does not win people's love, although Li Hongji is not a gentleman, he also knows that everyone has a reverse scale, this thing cannot be violated, and everything else can be discussed.

After a few polite exchanges, everyone quickly dispersed. Zhao Kuangyin and Li Yu sat at a table with depressed faces, originally thinking that they could dig out the old past of Zhaowang Li Da, but it turned out that this matter was not what everyone imagined. The old treant didn't lie, but she had been tricked by the thief.

Now that the matter has not come out, Zhao Kuangyin also gave the piece of treasure jade to Li Da, although there was 10,000 taels of silver, but it was a loss, and the thing promised to the old banyan tree was not done.

I believe that the person who the old banyan tree has been waiting for is not King Zhao Li Da, but she thinks it is King Zhao. Since the thief was willing to give such a precious thing to the old banyan tree, it proved that he did not abandon it from the beginning, and perhaps there was some special reason why he could not return to the village to marry the old banyan tree.

It is because of such misunderstandings and accidents that today's tragic situation has been caused. The old banyan tree has become a monster, and he has never given up on King Zhao Li Da. As a result, King Zhao Li Da didn't know anything about this matter, and the nameless thief didn't know where he went, and he didn't even know whether he was alive or dead.
