Chapter 357 Master Sleeps with Me (1/2)
(Emperor's Book Pavilion)
Li Shiwen's luck was not so good. When he returned home from the palace, the Li family's dinner had just ended.
He came in from the outer door and saw the servants inside busy clearing the table and serving desserts.
"How come you have all eaten?" He was a little dumbfounded. He ran back as fast as he could, but still didn't catch up with the end of the banquet.
Li Shiyin took the cake from the table and wanted to feed Qin Ran. Qin Ran was embarrassed and stretched out his hand to take it. She took a cake and glanced at Li Shiwen at the door, and asked, "Why, you didn't eat?"
A maid came to take off Li Shiwen's armor, but he was still standing at the door, and replied, "How can I have time to eat?"
"We defended Wuyi City and repelled the Xuanqin Army. This is a great victory. His Majesty must reward you well?" Li Shiyin leaned on Qin Ran to eat cakes and talked to Li Shiwen, "You didn't enjoy the good imperial banquet in the palace, but ran back home. Who can you blame?"
Li Shiwen changed into casual clothes, walked over, and sat next to Yuchi Zhen. He glared at Qin Ran and said coldly, "You have to ask your good master about this."
"What does my master have to do with it?" How could Li Shiyin tolerate Li Shiwen slandering her master?
"Haha!" Li Shiwen sneered twice, took the hot soup handed over by Yuchi Zhen, drank a sip, and then said, "I was sitting at the imperial banquet, and those people wished they had a lethal eye, and shot me into a sieve. How could I eat it?"
He snorted again, "You master and disciple took all the benefits, and I was the one who bore the infamy. What do you think your master has to do with it?"
Li Shiyin then turned back to look at Qin Ran, asking with a pair of eyes that could speak.
"It's about the peace talks between Beichu and Xuanqin." Qin Ran explained to her in a low voice.
"Oh..." Li Shiyin understood, "Li Shiwen went to the palace to talk to His Majesty about this?"
Zhuifeng was fair and handsome, and had a good appetite, which made Yang Yanqi like her very much. After dinner, she teased Zhuifeng and was very happy.
She heard the conversation between several people at the table, picked Zhuifeng up, and asked, "So what happened this time? Why did Xuanqin withdraw its troops inexplicably?"
As the mistress of the Li family, she naturally knew about the military. She could see clearly that there was a gap between the national strength of Xuan Qin and Northern Chu, and one side was getting stronger and stronger, while the other side was getting weaker and weaker. Therefore, even with the help of Dayan and Yanhan, Wuyi City might not be able to be defended. She thought Northern Chu was going to perish.
The situation was originally very good, but Xuan Qin suddenly withdrew its troops. This was too unreasonable. It was incomprehensible.
A servant put the dishes on the table again. Li Shiwen ate while being served by Yuchi Zhen, and replied to his mother: "This is also the credit of this brother Qin.
"We can persist in Wuyi City because of him; he was the one who judged that Xuan Qin would unify the six countries; he was also the one who went to Xuan Qin Modu alone to persuade Zhao Zheng. "
"Xuan Qin will withdraw its troops and give Northern Chu a chance to negotiate peace, all thanks to him. And the conditions given by Xuan Qin..." He shook his head, "too simple. Your Majesty is afraid that the Xuanqin envoy will go back on his word..."
As Li Shiwen spoke, Yang Yanqi's eyes became brighter and brighter, and the more she looked at Qin Ran, the more she liked him, and gradually became hot. She didn't expect that this seemingly literary prospective son-in-law was really literary, and actually had such ability, a scholar who could plan the world and grasp the situation.
... Their Li family needs such a person.
"You went to the Xuanqin Palace alone, persuaded Zhao Zheng, and then retreated safely?" She asked.
Qin Ran shook his head. Yang Yanqi didn't say anything. He neither entered the palace nor persuaded Zhao Zheng. He was even persuaded by Zhao Zheng, and he didn't retreat safely.
"Whole body..." He paused and smiled bitterly, "Not retreated. "
"? "Yang Yanqi was puzzled.
"Mom, you don't know, these cultivators..." Li Shiwen's meal was more noisy than the five of them before. He explained to Yang Yanqi, "They all have some strange abilities. You see, Shiyin is a sword cultivator, so her swordsmanship is very powerful; her master is an alchemy cultivator, so he knows a lot of messy things. He can split himself, and he let his split go to Xuanqin."
"Oh! Awesome, not standing on the dangerous wall, but making plans." Yang Yanqi was even more amazed. She gradually felt that Qin Ran had become her perfect son-in-law.
"How about it, my master is awesome!" Li Shiyin was even more important. Seeing Qin Ran being praised by her brother and mother, she was happier than anything else.
"Awesome!" Yang Yanqi was amazed. "Hmm? "At this time, Li Shiwen felt that something was wrong. He raised his head from his rice bowl and looked at Qin Ran. What was going on? Didn't he come here to scold him?
It was indeed Qin Ran who did the things of persuading the reconciliation, but he was the one who bore the blame!
But he looked at his mother and his sister, opened his mouth, and finally said nothing. He just took the meat handed over by Yuchi Zhen and bit it viciously.
Yang Yanqi and Li Shiyin praised Qin Ran to the sky. Qin Ran was praised I felt a little embarrassed.
After having a good meal and a good chat, they finally had to go back to their rooms to rest.
However, everyone else had their own rooms to go back to, but Qin Ran didn't. He was a guest, so he could only go to the guest room.
Li Shiyin was eager to take care of her own master, and she took her master to the guest courtyard.
Li Shiwen was originally going to go back to his own courtyard with Yuchi Zhen to spend time alone, but when he was leaving, Yang Yanqi grabbed his clothes.
He turned around and saw Yang Yanqi signaling Li Shiyin and Qin Ran in front of him with his eyes.
Mother and child are connected by heart, and he immediately understood that Yang Yanqi was worried that Li Shiyin, this silly child, was shameless and would sleep with Qin Ran after sending her away, making it too easy for Qin Ran to get her.
Although Yang Yanqi admired Qin Ran, she still believed that basic moral etiquette should be maintained.
The two children were not young anymore, and their feelings were in place. If they wanted to consummate the marriage, they could... but they had to get married first.
So she still asked Li Shiwen to pay attention.
Although Li Shiwen didn't agree with this, he could see clearly that the one who took the initiative to attack the master and disciple was actually Li Shiyin. If Qin Ran had any intention, Li Shiyin would have been eaten up long ago.
But my mother had the order, so he still sighed, let go of his little wife, and told her to go back to her room. He ran over with Li Shiyin and her disciple.
"Master, Master, walk this way... You see, that's Daddy's study room, which is much bigger than our Danfeng's study room. There are many, many books in it. Master, you can go and read books in the future... Walk over there to the back garden, which is where you remember? I said Daddy grows flowers just like you grow herbs, and the back garden is very beautiful... And this is the training ground, where you can practice martial arts and fight..."
Li Shiwen approached and heard Li Shiyin introducing Qin Ran to various places in the Li Mansion in detail.
"Master, look, over there, I live there, you see, the most beautiful one is my yard." Li Shiyin stood on tiptoe and pointed to Qin Ran, "You can go to that yard to find me..."
"Then Master, do you want to sleep in your yard?" Li Shiwen asked in a deep voice from behind.
"That's fine!" Li Shiyin nodded, "Actually, that's what I thought. There's no need to go through so much trouble. I also have guest rooms in my yard. The master can sleep in my room, and I can sleep in the guest room too!"
Li Shiwen's face was dark, and he scolded: "Girls, you don't know shame at all! Where are the books that the teacher taught you to read?"
"Forgot!" Li Shiyin was not justified, she turned around and asked Li Shiwen, "Do you remember?"
"I..." Of course I can't remember, Li Shiwen snorted coldly, "Girls don't know how to be reserved, I don't know who will like it."
"My master likes it!" Li Shiyin stuck out her tongue at Li Shiwen.
"Fortunately, your master is also a strange guy." Li Shiwen said.
"Hey?" Qin Ran said innocently, "Don't bring the war to me!"
"Humph! As powerful as I am, there are many people who like me!" Li Shiyin said arrogantly, "I just don't like them... Master."
"Yes, yes... You are the most conceited, all the men in the world like you." Li Shiwen rolled his eyes.
"No, women like it too." Li Shiyin smiled mischievously.
Now that Li Shiwen's heart has been recast, he is no longer depressed and inferior, and his relationship with Li Shiyin has returned to normal. He does not feel that there is a gap between him and Li Shiyin because of her invincibility. He gets along with Li Shiyin the same way as before.
Brother and sister, fight when they should, and they should not; scold when they should, and they should not, and they scold when they should. Bickering and dislike have become a daily routine.
"You are accused of treason again..." Qin Ran asked Li Shiwen curiously, "So has your official position been demoted again?"
Li Shiwen shook his head and said, "Although there are many people who scold me, in fact, most of them know the interests of the two countries. Some people scold me for scolding, some scold me because of different positions, and some scold me because they were ready to surrender and couldn't surrender. Only a few really scold me because of moral issues...
"I was not demoted, but promoted. Now I am the left general again. In a few days, I have to guard the palace again."
"Guard the palace? "Qin Ran nodded, knowing that Li Shiwen had indeed been promoted.
His rudimentary knowledge of politics and history still let him know one thing, that only generals who are trusted by the emperor are qualified to guard the imperial city, and in this evil feudal dynasty, being trusted by the emperor is everything.
He smiled and said, "So you have a blessing in disguise. Well, being scolded makes you angry, and black and red are also red."
While the three of them were talking, they came to the small courtyard arranged for Qin Ran to rest.
Li Shiyin took Qin Ran around the courtyard, like a chirping little sparrow, and introduced Qin Ran in detail.
She introduced this home to her master tonight, as if the master had taken her to know Danfeng many years ago.
Finally, they came to the bedroom, and Li Shiyin took out the quilt and mattress from the cabinet, skillfully installed the quilt, and made the bed.
Li Shiwen looked at Li Shiyin's operation and was quite surprised: "When did this silly child become so skilled?"
"She did all these by herself when she was in the mountains. "Qin Ran said with a smile, "She was still learning needlework last year... maybe I can give you a new dress during the Chinese New Year this year."
"Great, great!" Li Shiwen shook her head repeatedly, "When you are away for three days, you should look at each other with new eyes. I didn't expect Li Shiyin to look like a girl."
Qin Ran laughed, a little proud. He paid a lot for his silly apprentice, and the silly apprentice also changed a lot because of him.
Li Shiyin was busy, tidying up the room, making the quilt, turning around, putting her hands on her hips in front of the bed, looking at Li Shiwen and Qin Ran, and said proudly: "How is it? Awesome!"
"Shiyin is the best." Qin Ran still praised.
But at the same time, a discordant voice sounded: "Not bad! I didn't expect you to be so girly. Tsk tsk tsk!"
"Huh!" Li Shiyin glared at Li Shiwen, then smiled and looked at Qin Ran, "Master, I will ask you for a few maids tomorrow and let them serve you. "
"..." Qin Ran wanted to, but reason made him shake his head. He smiled and said, "No need. Master is used to doing his own things."
This silly apprentice didn't know where he learned all these bad ideas, and he actually wanted to test him.
It should be Qiqi's fault. It seems that when he goes back, he has to teach Qiqi a lesson for bringing his well-behaved and lovely apprentice into this state.
"Well, that's good..." Li Shiyin nodded with satisfaction, "Then Master, I will come to serve you in person tomorrow."
Li Shiwen leaned against the door frame and said faintly, "You can do it today... or you can go to warm the bed first."
"You are the only one who talks too much!" Li Shiyin glared at Li Shiwen murderously. Why is this person so annoying?
She was in no mood to tease the master, so she had to say, "Hey, Master, it's late, you should rest first. Let's go."
"No, it's still early, let's talk more!" Li Shiwen said sarcastically, "Get close."
Li Shiyin walked to his side with a "beep beep beep" sound, and then stepped on it with a "bang"!
"Hehe!" Li Shiwen had expected this and retracted his foot in time, laughing, "I can't step on it."
But Li Shiyin jumped up and headbutted him...
"Ah!" Li Shiwen screamed and squatted down, holding his nose.
Qin Ran came over and saw Li Shiyin waved to him and then disappeared at the gate. He looked down at Li Shiwen and saw blood on the ground, knowing that Li Shiwen probably had a broken nose.
"Oh, how miserable!" He sighed and threw a handkerchief to Li Shiwen.
Then...
"Bang!" Li Shiwen was locked outside the house.
"No..." Li Shiwen held his nose and looked up at the sky, "Who did I offend?"
He didn't want to hug his sweet and soft wife, but had to come here to be bullied and beaten...Oh! It's so pitiful!
