Two days later.
Duke Wei's Public House.
"He hasn't eaten or drunk for three days, and he still refuses to lower his head?”
"He refused. He only said that he wanted to see Old Master personally and didn't care about anyone who went.”
"Stinky brat, your temper is quite stubborn!”
Initially, Li Jing thought that if he starved Li Yu for a day or two, the latter would obediently lower his head and agree to all his requests.
Who would have thought that he wouldn't fall for this?
He had not eaten or drunk for three days, yet he was able to remain calm. Li Jing was not angry, but rather happy.
This temper was his enemy!
If Li Yu was forced to lower his head, Li Jing might feel pity and look down on him.
Now, there was only joy in Li Jing's heart!
This son-in-law was definitely mine!
No matter what method he used, he had to tie him up!
"Did you tell him about the marriage? They would get engaged first and then get married later. Everything was up to him.”
Li Jing asked again. The old butler hurriedly said,
" I've made it clear, but he said that he still doesn't want to start a family. He can only disappoint Master's high hopes..."
"Let me down? Who can let down this old man's high hopes?”
Li Jing sneered and was about to say something when the door was pushed open. Li Qing Yin strode in and said angrily,
"Father, if that kid doesn't want to marry, just chase him away. Why are you keeping him alive? Is your daughter unable to get married?!"
This matter caused Li Qing Yin to be extremely furious.
He would rather not eat or drink than agree to the marriage.
What did he take her, Li Qing Yin, for?
Was she that bad?
He would rather die than marry?
Since she was young, all the disciples in Chang 'an had admired her and fawned over her.
Only this brat who came out of nowhere dared to humiliate her like this.
Li Qing Yin was furious!
If Li Jing hadn't stopped her, she would have rushed into the storeroom to fight him and thrown him out of Duke Wei's estate!
"Impudent!"
Li Jing slammed the table and looked at Li Qing Yin, saying angrily,"
"If you could get married earlier, would this old man need to be so embarrassed today?!”
"I…"
Li Qing Yin was speechless. She bit her lips and turned her head away.
"It's all because those talents in Chang 'an are too bad. They're not even as good as a girl. Why should they marry?”
"That's why I want you to marry Li Yu!”
"Isn't he just good at archery? He might not even be as good as my daughter in other aspects. He's just a commoner, why should we let him be?”
"Shut up! Can't you tell that this kid is extraordinary?”
"He's neither servile nor overbearing in front of the High Duke. Do you really think that he's from a humble background?”
Li Jing shouted angrily,"
"This matter is settled. He will be your ideal husband.”
"This old master will make him agree to this matter. You, a girl, don't interfere. Just wait for the marriage!”
"This!"
Li Qing Yin's expression was filled with disbelief. Seeing Li Jing's cold gaze, she didn't dare to refute and could only turn around and run.
"Sigh…"
Li Jing sighed and thought for a moment before standing up.
"Let's go, I'll go see him."
……
"Brat, greetings to Duke Wei."
Li Jing had just entered the storeroom when he heard a voice. Li Yu stood up and saluted with both hands.
"You knew that I would come?"
"No one came to persuade me at noon today. It's about time for Duke Wei to come.”
Li Yu seemed to be talking about something extremely normal.
"Oh?"
Li Jing raised his eyebrows and nodded with a smile. He waved his hand behind him.
"Ta Ta Ta…"
Immediately, a few servants came in with meat dishes. Li Jing walked in and sat cross-legged.
"I've made you suffer these few days. Eat some first.”
"I'm not hungry."
"Hmm?"
Li Jing frowned." It's a good thing to have a backbone, but going too far is as bad as not being able to do enough. Only a good man can be flexible."”
Obviously, he felt that Li Yu was throwing a tantrum.
In fact, Li Yu had signed in a lot of food these few days. He ate and drank to his heart's content every day. He was not as miserable as they thought.
Li Yu shook his head and didn't defend himself. He said,"
"The reason why I went on stage to shoot arrows was to meet General Li Jing.”
"Why do you want to see me?"
"Looking for someone."
"Looking for someone?"
Li Jing couldn't help but be stunned, and his face was filled with confusion. Li Yu took out a jade pendant from his pocket and handed it over, saying,"
"I wonder if Duke Wei has seen this kind of jade pendant before?”
"This is…"
Li Jing's expression changed drastically. He suddenly leaned forward to look at the jade pendant and said,"How did you get this?"
"Duke Wei really knows him?" Li Yu's eyes were filled with joy.
"This was forged by the previous emperor and was specially awarded to meritorious officials in the court. Only those who have made great contributions can possess it.”
Li Jing nodded slowly and said,"
"My uncle, Han Qinhu, is from Shangzhu Kingdom and once wore this Horned Dragon Jade Pendant.”
Speaking up to this point, Li Jing could not help but be overjoyed.
As expected, this kid's background was extraordinary. He must be the descendant of a famous family!
"Only those who have made great contributions in the previous dynasty can have it?"
Li Yu took a deep breath.
Sure enough, his brother Li Wang's background was not ordinary. It was the right move to look for Li Jing!
"Then, does Duke Wei know who owns this jade pendant? Presumably, the jade pendant given by the previous dynasty would have a mark, right?”
Li Yu asked excitedly again. Li Jing nodded and took the jade pendant. He looked at it carefully and said,
"There are indeed markings. Although they are all horned dragons, they are different. My uncle has a huge axe engraved on it, meaning to guard the country.”
"As for this jade pendant, it has a sharp sword. Hmm…I don't know who obtained it.”
Li Yu's heart thumped, and he subconsciously said,"
"Does Duke Wei know who can recognize this item? Please tell me!"
"Little brat seems to be dreaming too much. The previous dynasty has long been destroyed, and this item is also an item of the previous dynasty. How many people can recognize it?”
Li Jing handed the jade pendant back, and Li Yu's heart turned cold.
No one knew where it came from, so it was impossible to find it?
Li Jing raised his eyebrows when he saw Li Yu's expression. He immediately smiled and said,
"However, if we really want to talk about it, there should be one person in the world who knows who the jade pendant belongs to!”
