Sun Zhiyang's eyes darkened, and there was a mysterious glint in them." You want to fight without bloodshed?"”
"I'm the Prefecture Overseer of Pingjin. I can't just watch the citizens of Pingjin suffer from the chaos of war. As long as it's something that's beneficial to the people, I'm willing to give it a try.”
Sun Zhiyang said seriously,"Tell me, how do you plan to outsmart him?"”
Li Yi told Sun Zhiyang his thoughts. She knew that if she really wanted to recover Pingjin without bloodshed, she could not do without Sun Zhiyang's help. After all, her thoughts were too simple. These were the tactics in the ancient book script that she had read before. Combined with Li Yi's memories, she did not know if she could succeed or not.
Sun Zhiyang held her fingers and listened to her patiently. He looked at her playfully." Is this what you want to do?”
"Isn't that childish?"
"Hehe, no, it's very interesting.”He hugged her tightly." Do you still remember what I told you? As long as you are my woman, I can give you anything you want.”
Li Yi's body stiffened and he moved his body uneasily.
He tightened his grip and his eyes were filled with a hint of anger, killing intent, and viciousness." Remember, you've already promised me. Do whatever you want!”
Li Yi subconsciously held his breath. The dangerous aura emitted from his body was like an invisible hand that grabbed her throat, suffocating her.
It seemed that he knew about Ouyang Bo. Would he harm Ouyang Bo? How did he know that the Li family had his eyes and ears? Who could it be? The Li family's personal guards were brothers who had gone through life and death with their father. Could it be that someone was working for him for benefits? Li Yi thought about it uneasily. No matter who it was, having such a person by her side made her feel extremely terrifying.
He gently planted a kiss on her cheek." Are you full?”The novel network didn't jump.
"I'm full!"
"Go back and do what you want! I'll help you handle the rest.”He let go of his arm and leaned lazily on the cushion, looking a little tired.
Li Yi stood up, bowed according to official etiquette, and left the room. The soldier standing outside the door stood tall and straight. When he saw Li Yi come out, he entered the room. The Pingjin officials in the middle of the courtyard were kneeling so hard that their legs were numb. They gritted their teeth and stood still. When they saw Li Yi come out, they looked at him with different gazes. Some were gloating, some were expressing sympathy, and some were cold and mocking. Li Yi kneeled in her seat nonchalantly.
After a while, the soldier came out again and conveyed the Duke's message. All the Pingjin officials who had abandoned the city and fled would follow the army and make up for their mistakes. They would be under Li Yi's command.
After passing on the verbal order, everyone stood up. Li Yi was worried about the matter between her and Ouyang Bo, and he was not in the mood to deal with the greetings of these fickle officials. Seeing their fake smiles made her feel disgusted.
After saying a few simple words to them, Li Yi hurriedly walked out of the Inspectorate.
Ouyang Bo hugged his sword and paced anxiously at the door. When he heard footsteps, he turned around and saw Li Yi. He hurriedly came over and observed her expression. You don't look well."
Li Yi forced a smile." It's okay, Ouyang. I'm tired. Let's go home!"”
"Did the Duke make things difficult for you?"
"No, it's just that my injuries haven't recovered yet.”Her heart ached. Why did the heavens always like to joke with her? The people she liked would eventually leave her for various reasons, and the people who liked her were so hard to figure out.
After getting on the horse, Li Yi sat listlessly with his head lowered and did not say a word. Under such circumstances, how should she handle her relationship with Ouyang Bo? Ouyang Bo's love was so warm that she greedily wanted to live in his care for the rest of her life. But she couldn't love him. Sun Zhiyang's warning scared her. With Sun Zhiyang's status and power, they were as insignificant as two ants. He could take their lives with just a move of his finger. If he wanted to get rid of these, he could only leave secretly. After they recovered Pingjin, they would sneak away and make up for their mistakes. The imperial court would probably not pursue the Li family's responsibility. At most, he would be incompetent and give up his official position, forever hiding his identity and never stepping into the officialdom again.
Could he just leave? Would the women of the Li family agree to escape with him? Ouyang Bo had always wanted to be the martial arts champion. Would he be willing to hide his identity and live a simple life in the countryside for her?
"You have something on your mind? Can you tell me?" The novel network didn't jump. Ouyang Bo asked worriedly as he rode alongside her.
Li Yi clenched the reins in his hand tightly, and his eyes flickered,"Ouyang, if one day I'm tired and want to leave the officialdom and live a simple life, are you willing to accompany me?"”The novel network didn't jump.
"No matter when or where you go, I will always be by your side. I've already abandoned you once, and there won't be a next time. I'm willing to accompany you to the ends of the earth as long as it's a place you want to go.”
The corner of Li Yi's mouth twitched, and he smiled bitterly." If you leave with me, it will cause you a lot of trouble." Perhaps you'll have to hide your identity for the rest of your life, and you'll never be able to take the martial arts examination.”
Ouyang Bo smiled calmly, his eyes firm." I know that these are not important. I don't want to see you live so tiredly." You've suffered too much all these years. It's time for you to take a break. There will always be a place for us in the world. I'm a martial artist. I have nothing else. I travel the world alone with my sword. Moreover, there are two of us. We won't be alone.”
"If you think this way now, you might regret it in the future!”
Ouyang Bo frowned and said unhappily,"I've never been so serious before." Don't doubt me."
Li Yi's tears welled up as he smiled sweetly. No matter what the future held, at least at this moment, he was sincere. With him willing to accompany her to fight the sword to the end of the world, what else was there to be unsatisfied with? She had never imagined that someone would be willing to die with someone else for something like love. Life was full of variables. No matter what happened, she should continue on her path in the future.
When they returned to the Li family, Xiang 'er had been waiting at the door for a long time. When she saw Li Yi, she quickly came up to him and said with a strange expression,"Young Master, Young Master Ouyang, Second Madam is not feeling well." He ordered me to wait for you here and to go over as soon as you came back.”
Li Yi was shocked. Could it be that the man from last night had caused Lotus to fall ill? No matter what it was, it was better to go and take a look. However, Lian Niang was a woman after all. Why would she let Ouyang go with her?
She no longer had the energy to think. She followed Xiang 'er to Lian Niang's courtyard with Ouyang Bo.
Xiang 'er pushed open the door, and Li Yi and Ouyang Bo walked in. They could not help but be surprised. Not only was Lian Niang in Lian Niang's room, but there was also Li Mu, Ouyang Jin, and Guard Liu. Everyone's expressions were solemn as if something big had happened.
"Mother, Xiang 'er said you were sick. Where are you feeling unwell?”
Niang Lian's eyes dimmed, and she couldn't help but shed tears." Yi 'er, I have something to tell you. Now that the Li family is in trouble, we have to leave.”
Li Yi was puzzled. What happened?"
"There are some things that you should not know. We have to go. Mother will bring the Matriarch and the two of you to the Misery Sea Temple to pray for the Li family. Xiang 'er, your Uncle Li and Uncle Liu will accompany us." We'll stay in the monastery for a day before heading straight to the Copper Gong Fort. Take your personal guards to recover Pingjin State. Once the battle is over, no matter what happens, do not delay. Follow Young Master Ouyang and meet us at the Copper Gong Fort.”
Li Yi could feel the seriousness of the situation, but could this sudden situation be related to the man who came last night? Who was that person? Was he the one who told the Li family to leave?
"What about the Li family's personal guards?"
Li Mu replied," Don't worry about that, Young Master. The Tiger General Zhuo Dalu is the general's old subordinate. If we leave, the imperial court will definitely take advantage of the situation to put the Li family's personal guards into his army. Zhuo Dalu will treat them well."”
" You're the one I'm worried about the most. You have to be careful when you recover Pingjin City. Don't let anything happen to you!"”
"Mother, don't worry. I've already thought of a way to recover Ping Jin without bloodshed. I'll be fine." Li Yi looked at the tearful Lotus Maiden and could not help but let out a long sigh. Was God helping him? Just as she was about to leave, she didn't know how to tell her family. Lian Niang and the others brought it up and even thought of a plan and direction. She didn't know what had happened. The Li family had to leave. Mother Lian didn't want to say it, and she didn't want to ask too much, so she deliberately ignored it. The more secrets you know, the faster you die. If he wanted to live a peaceful life, it was better not to know any secrets. He could finally leave, stay away from Sun Zhiyang, and stay away from the court.
" Young Master Ouyang, are you willing to protect Yi 'er for the rest of your life?" Mother Lian asked as she looked at Ouyang Bo with anticipation.”
Li Yi could not help but be stunned. He actually asked such a question so directly. Why did it feel like he was going to die?
Ouyang Bo's face turned red as he cupped his fists and said in a clear voice,"Madam, don't worry. I will protect Li Yi for the rest of his life. I will not let her suffer any grievances."”
"Young Master Ouyang, I'm handing Yi 'er over to you. Once Ping Jin is conquered, you must bring her to Fort Copper Gong and treat her well!”
" Mother..." Li Yi cried out involuntarily, and he also became sad along with Mother Lotus. Ever since she came to ancient times, she had been Li Yi. She had borne all the feelings of the Li family for Li Yi. He had his grandmother's doting, his mother's love, the respect of his servants, and the loyalty of his brothers. But now that they were going to separate, although they had agreed to meet again, they still couldn't help but feel sad. The sadness of parting spread in their hearts, as if they were going to say goodbye forever.
"Yi, mother has let you down. For so many years, a girl like you has to bear too many things that you shouldn't have to bear. Promise mother…you…you must promise mother…no matter what happens in the future, you must live well. You…you must live well.”Niang Lian pulled Li Yi and sobbed.
Li Mu got up and said softly,"Second Madam, let's go!" Without us, Young Master Ouyang and Young Lady Ouyang will be able to escape easily.”
" Don't send us off. It'll attract attention. Go and see the Matriarch. Don't say anything, lest she worries."”
Li Yi's eyes were red. He took a deep breath and looked at Ouyang Bo.
Ouyang Jin cleared his throat and said,"Bo 'er, stay for a while. I have something to tell you."”
