Chapter 47 Plum Blossom Poetry Society
Although Li Ji found it funny in his heart, a curious mentality still made him involuntarily come up with new ideas.
Xingyang County is now in his hands. Although he is no longer a Tongshou of the Sui Dynasty, he is much freer than a Tongshou.
There is no need to bother with paperwork, and no intrigue or open or secret struggles among colleagues.
All important military affairs in the camp were decided by him alone, reducing red tape and mutual constraints.
As he walked, he suddenly said:
"Butler, you need to do more to persuade General Zhang to surrender."
Li Ai bowed his head and said, "My Lord, rest assured. I will make him available to us as soon as possible."
"That's good. He is a talented person and a walking dictionary."
Li Ji looked at the blooming osmanthus flowers in the garden, and he couldn't help but think of the little Lolita in Pingyuan County.
The smell was so special, and he was surprised that Xun Mansion was also planted with osmanthus trees.
"Butler, go and look among the concubines in Xun Mansion. Those who are good-looking should be married off. We can't afford to keep so many idle people."
Li Ai asked in a low voice:
"My Lord, should we let them go and marry freely, or should we make the decision?"
Li Ji said generously:
"See if there are any leaders who are in urgent need of marriage. If they are of the same age, give them to the brothers."
Li Ai asked, "If there are no matches, we can sell them in the slave market to supplement military expenses. Is this a good way to deal with it?"
"Selling him is better than killing him. Okay, go do it now, or those impatient guards will get jealous and make mistakes."
"Yes, yes, my lord. I will go right away."
Li Ai took the order and left.
Soon, Li Ji arrived at Xun Mei's residence, the "Yongmei Poetry Society".
He was very curious. It was rare for a young lady living in the inner house to name her residence a poetry club.
As soon as he stepped into the corridor, a maid with a bun on her head came hurriedly to meet him.
"Master Li, the young lady is sleeping."
Yu Cheng shouted angrily: "Hurry up and wake her up!"
The maid trembled with fear and ran quickly to the inner room.
After a while, a slender girl with affectionate eyes came out.
"Greetings, sir!"
Xun Mei bowed and saluted.
Li Ji walked into the inner room and sat on a carved wooden chair beside the desk .
He looked around and saw that the bookshelves were filled with boxes of books.
Li Ji suddenly asked, "Miss, you read a lot, right?"
Xun Mei replied in a low voice: " I have nothing to do , so I read a few books to kill time."
"Since you are a scholar, you should understand some principles of life, right?"
Li Ji suddenly raised his voice and asked:
"I have no grudge against you, why did you and your father plot to harm me?"
When Xun Mei heard this, her face turned pale and she knelt down in front of Li Ji.
"Sir, I really don't know the reason. This may be a secret order from the Eastern Capital. My father is helpless!"
"I heard that you were living in seclusion in Dahai Temple, so my dad pretended to be sick and asked me to pick you up. I was kept in the dark beforehand."
Yu Cheng said anxiously, "Sir, do you want to drag him out and chop him off?"
Li Ji thought that her father was the mastermind and she had just got on the pirate ship by mistake.
Such a beautiful woman who loves reading was chopped to pieces without any reason. Even the King of Hell will feel guilty when she goes to the underworld.
As he was thinking about this, the system suddenly sent a message:
"Congratulations, you have just activated a beauty card!"
Li Ji was shocked and said, "Alas, in this chaotic world, I'm not in the mood for that."
"The beauty card has been activated and cannot be returned. If it is not used, the system will automatically lock it."
Li Ji was shocked. This is absolutely impossible. I traveled to the end of the Sui Dynasty thanks to this system.
His face turned red, and he said to himself, the system is a good system, but it is sometimes very stubborn.
"Take it, just take it."
“Ding Dong!”
"The Time Tunnel Fate-Changing System sent a message: A young lady's fortune has been reversed. She has changed her fate successfully. I will reward her with a lucky horse card."
A water curtain appeared in front of Li Ji, and the prize information was listed:
Name: Maxima
Quantity: 1*1
Features: Travel more than 1,000 miles a day;
Coat color: white jade;
Tooth age: 3 years.
…
Li Ji thought, this is great, I will have a good mount for marching and fighting.
Ding Dong
"System reward item number two: several weapons."
Green Dragon Crescent Blade 1*1;
Dragon Fighting Soul-Catching Staff 1*1;
Carved long-handled copper hammer 1*2;
Yin-Yang Dual Cultivation Sword 1*2;
Special-shaped mask 1*100.
…
The system rewards so many items at once, including a thousand-mile horse and weapons.
It seems that I cannot defy fate, and I am a man who can take it and let it go.
He was so happy that his face was full of smiles.
Yu Cheng was confused. He really couldn't understand why Lord Li's attitude changed so quickly.
How could he know that it was the system that was working?
To be honest, if Li Ji had traveled to the chaotic times at the end of the Sui Dynasty without the system, even a hundred Li Jis would be doomed.
Yucheng, the stupid boy, didn't know the reason, and of course, he didn't dare to ask.
I can only act according to Li Ji's expression.
To kill or to keep, it was all just a glance from Li Ji.
Li Ji suddenly felt that his abilities had improved a lot. When he first came here, he was still a refugee with no special skills.
But today, his words have become law.
The beauty system card has been activated, let’s give it a try!
Li Ji was excited, but Xun Mei looked up at him shyly and lovingly.
When Li Ji saw this, he almost lost his soul.
At this moment, Xun Mei's eyes were filled with tears and she was panting slightly.
The twin peaks are like the scenery of Qinling Mountains, with a panoramic view; the cheeks are like the water of West Lake, clear and pure.
A pair of affectionate eyes, black and white, like black crystals inverted in a white jade dish;
With a slender willow waist and a graceful figure, she swings on a swing by the canal.
Li Ji's eyes suddenly narrowed into slits as if blown by a strong wind.
"My Lord, my Lord!"
Yucheng shouted twice without knowing what was good for him.
Only then did Li Ji come to his senses.
"My Lord, it's time to eat."
Li Ji turned his head slightly, looked at Yu Cheng's dull look, and whispered:
"Notify the kitchen to send lunch to Miss's room."
Yu Cheng snapped and knelt on one knee.
"As you command, Lord Li!"
Yu Cheng took the order and left.
Li Ji said sternly: "No matter what the reason is, you are your father's accomplice."
Xun Mei was so scared that she was sweating profusely. The sweat had just dried, but her back was wet again.
When Li Ji saw this, Xun Mei was frightened out of her wits.
He quickly slowed down his tone and said gently:
"Since you have changed your attitude quickly and are actively helping and reminding me to avoid being hunted down, I will spare your death."
Xun Mei breathed a sigh of relief and thought to herself, Lord Li is a handsome and suave man.
As long as you stay alive, I will stay with you all night long. That is the wish I made on the Three Lives Stone.
At the end of the Sui Dynasty, life and death were uncertain; I, Xun Mei, felt that my life was not lived in vain if I could share a bed with the person I loved.
When Xun Mei thought of this, the fear she had just felt disappeared.
She kowtowed in thanks.
Then, a voice was heard, "Get up!"
She slowly stood up and said with a smile:
"Sir, I'll go get lunch."
A fragrant breeze blew across Li Ji's cheek, and he couldn't help feeling refreshed.
However, the lady's action almost made Li Ji faint...
