Tibet

Li Ye sat on the platform of the well and let out a long sigh. He was really frustrated. He originally thought he was a good fighter, but when he was in front of a master, he was killed like a chicken.

At this time, Li Ye felt his mother's warm hands stroking his hair. He smiled bitterly and said, I have been practicing hard for ten years, but I am still vulnerable.

Pei Sanniang said softly: You were just laying the foundation before, and you haven't touched the real martial arts yet. Now you have just started. When you are connected at the bottom of the well, you will learn many things by yourself without a teacher. His elbow hammer is not at all I can’t hit you.”

Do you know that my uncle is teaching me?

Of course I know. Originally, I wanted to teach you martial arts, but he refused. He has no son or apprentice, so he just wanted to pass on his martial arts to you, so I left it to him.

Mom, I have to go down the well tonight!

Go! This villain drank the medicine and has fallen asleep. He won't wake up until tomorrow morning. Don't tell your uncle what happened tonight.

Li Ye nodded silently.

Li Ye arrived at the backyard of the temple an hour early, but unexpectedly found Zhang Xiaopang also there, straightening his back and squatting on a horse. When the two of them met their eyes, they understood each other's determination without saying anything.

Li Ye took off his coat, jumped into the well with a polo club, and began to practice hard underwater.

………

At dawn the next day, when the gate of the square opened, Xiao Huangmao ran to notify Qiao Bin. Qiao Bin immediately went to the palace to tell his father.

An hour later, an ox cart arrived in front of the palace. Li Ye jumped off the ox cart, clasped his fists and said to the gatekeeper: Please inform you, Manager Qiao, that I have something important to see the prince!

The gatekeeper knew Li Ye. This young man was very good at polo, so he quickly went to inform Steward Qiao.

Although Prince Si Ning Li Lin was a high-ranking noble, he still held an official position. He once served as Secretary, Provincial Member and External Supervisor. This official position was actually to accompany the prince to study.

The princes have grown up and do not need his company. He basically studies music and literature in the palace.

At this time, the old eunuch Wang Shouzhong said in the hall: Your Majesty, Manager Qiao needs to see you urgently!

Li Lin nodded, Let him come to see me!

Li Lin's Prince Ning's Mansion was half palace and half palace. The eunuchs and maidens served him and the princess in part of the palace, and Wang Shouzhong was in charge.

The part of the mansion that is open to the outside world, including servants, maids, servants, gardeners, coachmen, etc., is led by Qiao Xingzhong as the chief steward and Hu Jing as the second steward.

After a moment, Qiao Xingzhong walked over quickly, knelt down and saluted: I pay my respects to the prince!

No need to be polite, what's the urgent matter, sir?

My lord, do you still remember the young man Li Ye who played polo two days ago?

Li Lin smiled and nodded, Of course I remember. What happened to him?

My lord, his house was burned down last night, and he and his mother were almost burned to death!

Li Lin was startled, What's going on?

They caught the person who set the fire. According to the person who set the fire, someone in our palace had a grudge against him and hired someone to set the fire!

What?

Li Lin's eyes widened, That's right! How could he be from my house?

Bi Zhi also found it unbelievable and asked him for evidence. He gave Bei Zhi this!

Qiao Xingzhong handed the confession to Li Lin. After reading the confession, Li Lin slammed the table and said angrily: Get Hu Jing!

Immediately, a eunuch went to find Hu Jing. Li Lin took a few steps with her hands behind her back and asked, Where is Li Ye now?

It was right at the gate of the mansion. He refused to enter the mansion no matter what. He said he wanted to tell the prince, and then he would go to the county government to report it.

Go to the door of the house!

Li Lin felt both angry and anxious. Angry because Hu Jing was so bold that he dared to pay for a murder, and anxious because of whether this incident would affect her reputation.

Li Lin's father, King Ning Li Xian, was originally a generous man, but in order to protect himself, he ruined his reputation and did many ridiculous and evil things.

Before his death, he deeply regretted what he had done. By the time Li Lin's generation was no longer a threat to the emperor's throne, Li Lin's brothers had done many good deeds in his father's name in order to make up for his father's mistakes. Li Lin herself also paid special attention to reputation.

Although the matter of hiring a murderer to kill someone was done without permission by his steward, when word spread, the people of Chang'an were talking about him behind his back, and no one would speak against his steward.

Precisely because she understood this, Li Lin felt extremely anxious.

Li Lin quickly arrived in front of the mansion with a group of guards.

Li Ye stood alone in front of the mansion. Wei Laizi was tied like a rice dumpling and fell to the ground.

Li Ye had already agreed with his mother that he would negotiate with King Si Ning, and Pei Sanniang agreed. She sat far away in the bullock cart. If Wei Laizi dared to recant his confession, she would come forward.

Master Li, are you okay? Li Lin asked anxiously.

Li Ye bowed and said: Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. My mother and I escaped in time and our lives are safe!

Come into the house and talk!

Li Ye shook his head, and Li Lin frowned, You don't believe me?

Your Majesty is a generous man. If you don't believe in Your Majesty, you won't come.

Li Ye's tone was neither humble nor arrogant, but he refused to enter the house. Li Lin couldn't do anything to him, so she turned around and asked angrily: Is that bastard here?

he came!

I saw Hu Jing coming in a hurry. His popularity in the mansion was too bad, and the messenger refused to tell him what happened. He only said that the prince had something urgent to do with him. He was really confused in front of the mansion.

But he was still a little nervous. According to the plan, Wei Zizi should have succeeded last night, but Wei Zizi didn't come to him to ask for money. Was there an accident?

Hu Jing walked to the door and saw Li Ye at a glance, and also saw Wei Laizi who was tied like a rice dumpling on the ground. Wei Laizi stared at him with extremely resentful eyes, and his mind was 'buzzing! ’ With a sound, my legs went weak and plopped! Fell to the ground.

Li Ye was afraid that Hu Jing would not admit it, so he prepared a lot of excuses. Unexpectedly, Hu Jing was so useless that he sat down on the ground in fright. This was a self-inflicted crime.

Li Ye said nothing and looked at Li Lin coldly. Seeing that Hu Jing didn't bother himself, Li Lin was trembling with anger. She pointed at him and said angrily: Drag him down, break one of his legs, and drive him out of the house. , will never be hired!”

Your Majesty, I know my fault. I know my fault. Please spare me! Your Majesty, please spare me!

Hu Jing was dragged down by several muscular guards, and his voice gradually became inaudible.

Li Ye bowed again and said, Thank you, Your Majesty, for upholding justice!

Li Lin sighed and said: Although he is a servant in my house, I cannot kill people at will. I hope you will understand!

Li Ye nodded, I understand, I will report it to the government and let the government resolve it!

Li Lin hesitated and said: Master Li, can you not report this matter to the official?

How could Li Ye report to the official position? If he reported to the official position, he would really offend someone. He planned this just to live in a new house.

so. ． ． ． ． Li Ye was waiting for his words!

Li Ye sighed and said: Your Majesty is a generous man. He treats villains with kindness and they will remember it in his heart. Since your Majesty does not want to report to the official, let's let this matter go! I will go up the mountain to cut firewood tomorrow and sell the money to repair the house.

Qiao Xingzhong suddenly covered his mouth, this brat really dared to say that!
