Chapter 218 You Are so Capable!
The bright moonlight shines on the old street. The blood-stained ground has been washed clean, and the broken bricks and stones have been moved to the roadside.
Dongfang Liren walked slowly through the war-scarred streets, looking at the houses on the street, his brows furrowed, as if he was thinking about important matters concerning the people of Li.
Ye Jingtang walked beside him. He originally didn't want to disturb Benben's thoughts, but after observing for a while he couldn't figure out the reason, so he still asked:
"Your Highness, what are you thinking about?"
Dongfang Liren wanted to deduce the positions and moves of several people fighting from the marks on the ground and walls, just like Ye Jingtang had done in previous investigations.
But it was obvious that she had overestimated herself a little. She couldn't figure it out, and it was hard to say it clearly in front of an important person, so she nodded thoughtfully:
"We are reviewing the battle situation. We were outnumbered and outnumbered, but we were still able to escape with ease. It seems that our martial arts skills have improved again."
Although this evaluation is based on the fact that he was unscathed through the Night Terror Hall, Qi State does have the feeling of an expert who has insight into everything, which is very bluffing.
Ye Jingtang knew Benben’s depth and did not criticize Benben. He just said with a smile:
"Your Highness has good eyesight."
Dongfang Liren was embarrassed to nod, turned around and walked towards the inn:
"It's a mess here and there's not much to see. Go back."
Ye Jingtang glanced at the inn not far away, thought for a while and asked:
"Where will your Highness sleep tonight?"
Dongfang Li and Master ran over without any entourage, so they must be living with Ye Jingtang.
Hearing this, Dongfang Liren could not help but be a little suspicious of this perverted subordinate, and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to be alone to sleep with her. However, thinking that the master was also there, she changed her mind and gave up her doubts:
"Just stay at the inn. The people from the Yamen will come over tomorrow morning. Take a rest early and return to Jianyang as soon as they arrive. The Queen Mother is still waiting in the city. If you delay for too long, you will lose your temper again."
"The Queen Mother is here too?"
"I've been holding it in for too long in the palace, so I just took it out to relax..."
After chatting for a few words, the two came to the door of the inn. When they looked up, they saw Xuanji sitting alone in the lobby, wearing white clothes like snow and a sword on the table, looking very chivalrous.
Dongfang Liren was walking very close to Ye Jingtang side by side, but fearing that his master would misunderstand him, he quickly took a half-step forward and walked in front.
Ye Jingtang, on the other hand, felt a little guilty and glanced at the second floor above.
When the two entered the gate, Master Xuanji looked as usual and said:
"Li Ren, you go upstairs first. Night Terror Hall, help boil some water. Li Ren has been running all day and is sweating all over."
Dongfang Liren didn't bring any maid, and the only person in the inn who could serve as a maid was Ye Jingtang.
Ye Jingtang naturally said nothing about this. After watching Dongfang Liren go upstairs, he turned and entered the backyard of the inn.
It seemed that Xuanji was sitting in the lobby on guard duty, but after the two separated, she narrowed her eyes slightly, then stood up and walked out of the door silently...
——
The back of the inn is quite large, with stables, kitchens, dormitories for waiters and other buildings. Because the Night Terror Hall was so murderous, it scared everyone away. There was no one in the backyard, and there were only three horses parked in the stables.
Ye Jingtang first fed his mount with fodder, then fetched water from the well, poured it into the large pot in the kitchen, and added firewood to boil the water.
Because he was a little bored alone, Ye Jingtang fiddled with firewood behind the stove and hummed an unknown tune casually:
"Uh huh huh~~..."
Click~
When the fire was just lit, a faint sound of broken dead leaves suddenly sounded from the night.
Night Terror Hall did not stop humming, but looked at the dark night outside the kitchen with his peripheral vision.
There was no one outside the door, only the bright moonlight in the courtyard.
Ye Jingtang frowned, and after looking at it for a while, his eyes moved back to the stove hole, and continued to fiddle with the firewood, but at this moment, something came from outside:
Phew~
It sounded silent, but Ye Jingtang could vaguely feel something, squeezing out the air and approaching quickly!
Uh-huh!
Ye Jingtang reacted very quickly. He immediately jumped up and leaned back. A white right hand that was originally clasped at the back of his neck, with a white sleeve, passed by him. He was as fast as thunder, but It has never caused any noise.
? !
Ye Jingtang had already grasped the handle of the knife with his left hand. When he saw Shui Xiu recognized the person, he switched to grabbing. He grabbed the woman's wrist with his left hand and tried to twist her right hand and pin her on the stove.
But this is obviously overthinking.
Real person Xuanji is indeed careless and cynical, but the fact that he can still reach the top three of the eight masters with this appearance is enough to show that his martial arts has already reached the level of extraordinary and holy.
Seeing that Ye Jingtang wanted to counterattack, Xuanji's right hand turned into a white snake, which seemed to be boneless. It instantly wrapped around Ye Jingtang's wrist, swam up and locked his left arm. At the same time, he pointed his finger at Ye Jingtang's chest.
Although there is still a gap between Ye Jingtang and Zhenren Xuanji, he has reached the realm of the unity of heaven and man, and his reaction is not completely unable to keep up. When his hands were connected, he had already used the Tingfeng Palm technique, and his hands followed the wind, instantly turning the white The jade hand was pulled away, and the right hand popped out at the same time, pointing towards the chest of the beauty in white.
When Master Xuanji saw her homemade technique, surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he hit Ye Jingtang with a fierce knee strike on his crotch.
Bang!
The knee hit and rushed out, causing a muffled sound out of thin air!
I go!
Ye Jingtang's hair stood on end, he really didn't expect that the majestic female Wu Kuai could use such a dirty move in a fight.
If he was hit by this kick, he might really have to take over the role of the palm eunuch. He immediately clamped his legs together to prevent the vaginal leg from being lifted. He changed the point of his right hand to grabbing, blocked the opponent's right hand, and said hurriedly:
"Wait a minute, Heroine!"
Boom~
Although he shouted out, Master Xuanji still didn't stop. After hitting his thigh with his knee, he pushed forward and pushed the wall of the Night Terror Hall against the lower wall.
Wow——
The movement in the kitchen stopped suddenly.
Ye Jingtang's hands and wrists were grabbed, and he did not resist and struggle.
Master Xuanji held down Ye Jingtang's hands, her beautiful cheeks were as cold as frost and snow. Although she had to raise her head to look up, her eyes revealed unparalleled sharpness, as if she were standing on a thousand peaks and looking down at mortal ants.
Ye Jingtang lowered his head to see the beautiful face so close at hand. He originally felt that the posture was inappropriate and wanted to get up, but when he felt the cold murderous aura coming from the opposite side, he remained calm and didn't move, slightly confused:
"Miss Shui'er, you..."
Choking——
The waist knife is unsheathed.
Master Xuanji flipped his wrist lightly, pulled out the saber from Ye Jingtang's waist, pressed it on Ye Jingtang's chest, and said in an indifferent voice without any emotion:
"I have been granted the title of 'Emperor Master', and I have the responsibility to defend the Wei Dynasty. I have neglected my duty by allowing you to sneak through the gates and get to Prince Jing's side. Today I will kill this bold traitor like you on behalf of the imperial court..."
? ? ?
Ye Jingtang's eyes were filled with confusion. He raised his left hand slightly and pinched the saber that was about to press against his neck:
"Miss Shui'er, what do you mean by this? You know my identity..."
"Of course I know."
Xuanji's eyes were like two sharp blades, staring into Ye Jingtang's eyes:
"The beloved general of the current King Jing, the contemporary young master of Honghua Mansion, and the concubine of the leader of the Pingtian Sect. You have three boats under your feet, you are so capable!"
Benben was taught the Overlord Spear at Night Terror Hall. Benben practiced it all the time. He was not surprised that the identity of the young master of Honghua Tower was known to Master Xuanji.
But the rebel leader’s mistress...
Ye Jingtang glanced at the inn outside, and then at the murderous Master Xuanji:
"Has the girl seen Ning'er?"
"Ning'er? What you call is really affectionate."
Master Xuanji held down Ye Jingtang and said coldly:
"Prince Jing has placed so much trust in you, but he didn't expect that you would be the backbone of the rebels sent to the capital..."
Ye Jingtang knew that if he had three boats, he would capsize sooner or later, but he never expected that the boat of Master Xuanji would be capsized first. He moved his saber slightly to signal to be calm:
"Miss Shui'er has misunderstood. I am definitely not a backbone of the Pingtian Sect..."
"How dare you say that you are not from the Pingtian Sect when you sleep with the wife of the leader of the Pingtian Sect?"
"?"
Ye Jingtang blinked, a little confused:
"I have already slept with the wife of the leader of the Pingtian Sect. How can I be from the Pingtian Sect?"
"..."
Master Xuanji blinked and felt that it seemed right - even if he was originally a member of the Pingtian Sect, after having an affair with the leader's wife, he is definitely not one now. This accusation is totally untenable...
Master Xuanji thought for a while and continued: "Master Pingtian is as good as Long Yang. You are so handsome, you may be Xue Baijin's male companion."
Ye Jingtang felt that Miss Shui'er's ideas were really fresh and refined. He said seriously:
"Miss Shui'er, do you think I like men?"
Master Xuanji nodded simply this time:
"A few days ago, when I held you, you didn't react at all. You didn't look like a normal man at all. And now, you and I are so close, and there is no wave in your eyes..."
? ?
Ye Jingtang was speechless and spread his hands slightly:
"I'm afraid of ruining the girl's innocence. Is it wrong to sit still in my arms? Besides, you lit me up at that time and I couldn't move. I can move, so you try to rub me? And now, you put the knife on my neck , do you expect me to be distracted?"
"Since you are calm and contented, why did you touch Luo Ning again?"
"Doesn't this prove that I'm just as horny as a normal man? I'm a wild boy who just came from the border. When I meet the most beautiful woman in the world, some impulses are inevitable..."
Master Xuanji narrowed her eyes slightly: "You are uncharacteristically impulsive in front of Luo Ning, but you feel calm in front of me?"
? ?
Ye Jingtang felt that Xuanji was not here to catch the mole, but rather to find trouble for the last time he was unmoved in front of the beauty...
"The girl is stunningly beautiful, and her charm is unparalleled in the world. The reason why I had mixed reactions is because I had never seen the world when I first came to the capital. Later, as I gained experience, I learned to keep my instincts in my heart and pay attention to propriety. , so as not to make the girl unhappy..."
"That is to say, you still had evil thoughts in your heart last time when you acted urgently?"
"..."
Ye Jingtang opened his mouth and said helplessly:
"The nature of food and sex stems from emotions and ends with etiquette. The reason why I didn't react in my behavior was out of etiquette, and the turmoil in my heart was out of instinct. The girl was holding me, and I was able to sleep while she was sleeping. He is as still as a mountain at times, which is already impeccable. A man who can be more calm than me either has a hidden disease or just doesn't like women. If a girl insists on finding faults, I have nothing to say."
Master Xuanji actually felt that there was nothing wrong with Ye Jingtang. It was far-fetched to say that Ye Jingtang was an undercover agent of the Pingtian Sect, so he stopped interrogating him, inserted the knife back, and backed away slowly:
"It's just because you are sensible that I didn't attack you directly. But the law does not tolerate mercy. In private, he is having an affair with the wife of the leader of the Pingtian Sect. If this matter comes to the ears of the imperial court, it will be difficult to leave. To protect your future, as the imperial master of the dynasty, I cannot turn a blind eye.
"Ye Jingtang, you probably don't want the court to know about your secret affair with the leader's wife, right? You want me to keep it a secret..."
Faced with the coercion of the demon sister, Ye Jingtang did not give in. Instead, he flicked his wrist, took out the golden card, and said seriously:
"Miss Shui'er, if you calculate it hard, I have higher authority than you. I don't think this is a big deal, and I have the right not to reveal the truth to anyone. If you do this again, I will order you to return to Yuxu Mountain immediately."
When Master Xuanji saw the sign 'I am here in person', he was obviously stunned for a moment:
"You and Yuhu..."
The Night Terror Hall and the impartial judge seemed to be correcting them seriously:
"How can a girl call the Emperor by his first name? He must be called His Majesty."
Xuanji's red lips moved slightly, and after thinking about it, she nodded in compromise:
"What is your relationship with the Holy One?"
Ye Jingtang said seriously: "Master Imperial Master, you should not interfere with such top-secret matters, and don't embarrass me."
"..."
Master Xuanji took a deep breath, causing her clothes to bulge slightly, but she didn't say anything.
After all, in terms of etiquette, once you are a master, you are always a father. The status of the master is indeed as supreme as the biological father, but the emperor is obviously not among them, otherwise the court will be the final decision of the three masters of the East Palace.
Master Xuanji has been granted the title of 'Emperor Master' and can spank even stupid people if necessary. However, before the supreme imperial power, one still has to have the consciousness of being a minister, consciously above the emperor, and interfering in the affairs of the empress at will. That's for sure. There will be problems.
Master Xuanji remained silent for a moment and did not ask any more questions. He just hummed softly:
"You kid, you climb so fast, even the Holy One has so much trust in you..."
Ye Jingtang said calmly: "What I have done is worthy of the trust of the Holy Emperor and Prince Jing. These are not obtained by flattery, but by hard work."
Master Xuanji knew that Ye Jingtang had repeatedly accomplished extraordinary feats after entering the capital, and he did not deny this:
"You are favored by the Holy One, so of course I will listen to what you say, but if you think you can rely on this to suppress me, you are thinking too much. I personally support the Holy One to inherit the throne, and the Holy One still listens to my words more."
Ye Jingtang put away the sign: "I have no intention of competing with the girl for favor. As long as the girl does not interfere with my work, I will still obey the girl's words."
Zhenren Xuanji came to raise an army to question the crime, but he was turned over by Ye Jingtang, and he was very unhappy.
After all, Luo Ning is her best friend, Benben is her apprentice, and Yuhu is also her apprentice.
In front of her, Mr. Ye, who is not attracted by beauty, has almost stolen all the people around her. She wants to take care of it but can't, how can she feel happy in her heart.
But at this time, there was not much that could be done against the Night Terror Hall. After thinking about it, Master Xuanji turned around and said:
"Okay, let's go boil the water. I'll keep this a secret for you first. If I find out in the future, you and Xue Baijin have a close relationship... hum."
After Ye Jingtang watched the demon sister leave, he shook his head secretly, thinking that if Xue Baijin came to kill him in the future, he might not be able to be saved by the gods.
But now that the matter has come to this, we can only take one step at a time...
——
In the inn.
Dongfang Liren went up the stairs, and when he passed through the corridor, he found that there were two adjacent rooms with lights on. Knowing that the person he wanted in Night Terror Hall lived in them, he couldn't help but feel weird. He continued to maintain a calm expression, but his steps subconsciously changed. Become silent.
I walked to a room a little further away and was about to open the door when I heard a voice:
"grumble……""
Looking around, I saw a big bird sneaking up on the roof beam, looking like it was afraid of being beaten if it made a mistake.
Dongfang Liren said doubtfully:
"My beloved concubine, what are you doing?"
"Chiji..."
Niaoniao muttered, saying that he was deceived by Master Xuanji, which caused Master Xuanji to touch Luo Ning's door without warning, but these Dongfangli people obviously didn't understand.
For this reason, the bird just waved its wings and shrank behind the beam.
Dongfang Liren didn't know why. Seeing that Niaoniao didn't want to play with her, he entered the room alone.
Dongfang Liren has been surrounded by people since he was a child. Suddenly, no one is waiting for him. He is still a little uncomfortable. After scanning Sujie's room, he sat down on the bedside and took out "The Tears of a Heroine" from his arms to read. .
She had just read a few pages and was reaching the crucial point when there was movement in the corridor outside. She quickly closed the book and assumed a posture of meditating...
In the corridor, Ye Jingtang carried two large buckets of hot water upstairs. He looked around along the way and found that Xuanji was not there, so he quietly came outside Ning'er's room and whispered:
"Ning'er?"
"You still knew you were coming back? Really...she didn't beat you, right?"
"No, I just told the truth..."
"What's the truth? Are you using force on me, or am I..."
Ye Jingtang understood what Ning'er meant and responded softly:
"How could I let you take the blame? To tell the truth, I teased you frivolously and refused to let you go. There was nothing you could do..."
"Okay, okay, you have some conscience..."
"Haha~ help me get a change of clothes and come out."
"For the Queen to wear?"
"Well, my robe will do. She can't wear your and Sanniang's clothes."
"How old is she that she can't wear it?"
Luo Ning was obviously a little sensitive to the word 'can't wear it', and her voice was quite dissatisfied.
Ye Jingtang passed the 'hand test' and knew that Benben and Sanniang were equally matched, but I definitely couldn't say this. After waiting for a while, the door opened, and Ning'er with a cold face took out a set of folded robes. , put it under the armpit of Ye Jingtang.
Ye Jingtang did not disturb the angry Ning'er anymore. He carried his clothes and two buckets of water to the room at the end of the corridor, and squeezed open the door with his shoulder.
Squeak...
The room was lit with candlesticks. Benben, dressed in a silver python robe, sat cross-legged on the bed with his back straight, holding the Ziwu Jue with his hands. The fat-headed dragon in front of him shone brightly, looking very serious.
Ye Jingtang closed the door with his feet: "The water is boiled. I brought you a set of clothes to change into. You can see if they fit you."
Dongfang Liren calmed down slowly, came to the screen, took out the black robe made of Shuiyun brocade from under Ye Jingtang's arm, and asked casually:
"Ning'er lives next door? Who is the other person?"
"It's Sanniang, come run out and play."
"You are really going out to do business and bringing two women with you."
Dongfang Liren pretended to be dissatisfied and criticized, then unfolded his black robe.
Dongfang Li is very tall, only about two fingers shorter than Ye Jingtang, and her bust is particularly impressive. She can completely wear Ye Jingtang's clothes.
But Dongfang Liren unfolded his black robe and was about to make some gestures on his body when he found that Ye Jingtang's service was very good. Not only did he bring his outer robe, but also his bellyband...
Wow~
A piece of hollow fabric the size of a handkerchief slipped from between his robes. Dongfang Liren reacted very quickly and quickly raised his hand to catch it. Then the room fell into dead silence.
Ye Jingtang was carrying a bucket to pour water. When he turned around and saw the sexy little clothes with hollow texture, his gentle and elegant expression froze slightly:
"Well……"
Dongfang Liren often slept with his sister under the quilt, so he naturally recognized what this handkerchief-sized piece of fabric was. His heroic eyes twitched slightly, and then murderous aura slowly emerged.
"Your Highness, what is that...this is cleaned..."
choke--
The single sword was unsheathed, and a cold light flashed in the room.
Dongfang Liren wanted to pull out the Huanshou knife from Ye Jingtang's waist, but Ye Jingtang held his wrist down and couldn't get away, so he pushed Ye Jingtang to the wall:
"You are presumptuous! What do you mean? Let me wear something like this?"
Ye Jingtang had just been pressed down like this by Master Xuanji, and he felt in his heart that Benben was indeed his own disciple, with exactly the same posture. He couldn't say that Ning'er gave it to her thoughtfully, so he could only explain:
"When I go out, I don't bring much change of clothes. Everything else is not well made. I'm afraid you won't be used to it..."
"Can I get used to this?"
Dongfang Liren's face turned red. He held up a small piece of cloth that couldn't cover even the fat-headed dragon, and waved it in front of the Night Terror Hall:
"Or do you want to see me wearing it? Who do you think I am? Do you really think I am reluctant to deal with you?"
"It's my fault, I'm going to find another one..."
Ye Jingtang's old face was a little helpless, and he raised his hand to take Xiaoyi back.
Dongfang Liren quickly took back his Xiaoyi and said coldly:
"You are a man, how can you touch such an unclean thing? I have confiscated this thing. If you let me see it in the future, I will send you to the harem to wash clothes and let you wash this thing every day!"
Ye Jingtang was a little helpless and soothed softly:
"Okay, I won't do it next time. Take a shower first, the water will get cold later."
Dongfang Liren stared at Ye Jingtang for a moment before letting go of his collar.
After Ye Jingtang poured the water into the bathtub, he turned around and went out:
"I'll wait outside the door. Just say whatever you need."
"No, you go and have a rest. You're not allowed in unless I tell you!"
"good."
Squeak~
The door opened and closed, and the room became quiet.
After Dongfang Liren left the Night Terror Hall, the blush on his face subsided. He took out the black clothes from behind, went to the makeup mirror and made gestures, frowned and whispered softly:
"This pervert is getting more and more proud of his favor..."
…
