Xiao Ying whispered, "Scribe Chu Li?"
Chu Li looked up at her.
Xiao Ying whispered, "Do you want to have dinner?"
"Alright," Chu Li's voice slowed down and smiled gently, "Thank you, Miss Xiao Ying."
Xiao Ying breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now when Chu Li's face was gloomy, the air seemed to solidify and she could not breathe. When his face relaxed, the surroundings also relaxed and she could breathe again.
She smiled and said, "Scribe Chu Li, why are you so polite? I'll go get it!"
Chu Li smiled and nodded.
Xiao Ying trotted out of the courtyard.
Chu Li walked out of the courtyard with his hands behind his back and came to the east courtyard. Two Protectors blocked the door.
The one on the left was a middle-aged man and the one on the right was a young man. Their eyes were sharp and their hands were on their swords. They stared at him coldly and obviously did not want him to come close.
Chu Li smiled, "Are you from the Ren Public House?"
"Yes, who are you?!" The middle-aged Protector on the left asked.
Chu Li smiled, "Chu Li from the Yi Public House."
"Chu Li?" The middle-aged Protector frowned and looked at him carefully. He said coldly, "You are the Chu Li from the Yi Public House?"
Chu Li smiled, "Is there anyone who impersonates me?"
"What's going on?" Xi Wu came to the courtyard door and saw Chu Li. His face suddenly changed, "It's you –!"
Chu Li closed fist saluted and smiled, "High Official Xi, we meet again."
"Why are you here!" Xi Wu said coldly.
Xi Wu's face was gloomy and he stared at him. He wanted to hit Chu Li with his palm.
Chu Li's smile became calmer, "Of course I came to Huay Public House as a guest. I didn't expect to meet you here. High Official Xi Wu personally came. The one inside must be the heir to the High Duke?"
"You don't need to know!" Xi Wu said coldly, "Chu Li, you better behave yourself. This is Huay Public House!"
Chu Li smiled, "Of course, I won't do it here."
He closed fist saluted and turned to leave.
Xi Wu stared at him and watched him go to the west courtyard. He frowned.
"Elder Xi Wu. This Chu Li …? "The middle-aged Protector whispered.
"Hmph, this is him. Be careful and be alert!" Xi Wu said coldly. He turned into the courtyard and came to Hu Guang Hui.
Hu Guanghui looked at him with a smile.
Xi Wu said, "Chief Hu, please change to another courtyard."
"Oh, is there anything wrong with this courtyard?" Hu Guang Hui said with a smile, "We are going to be a family soon, so you don't have to be polite. If you have any requests, I will do my best! "
Xi Wu scoffed, "The further away from Chu Li the better!"
"Was it Scribe Chu Li just now?" Hu Guang Hui was startled, and then he smiled and said, "It's my dereliction of duty. Good, good, change another room!"
As the Chief of the Guest Courtyard, of course, he knew that the Yi Public House and the Ren Public House were not on good terms.
Lu Yu Shu's figure was tall, his face handsome, his gaze sharp and threatening, "Elder Xi, which Chu Li?"
"Second Master, it is Chu Li from the Yi Public House!" Xi Wu bowed and said, "He is in the West Courtyard!"
"Why is he here?" Lu Yu Shu frowned and scoffed.
Hu Guang Hui chuckled, "Young Master Lu, you don't have to worry. He's here to see the High Duke, but the High Duke doesn't want to talk to him, so he's been staying there for two days. He doesn't dare to mess around in our Public House! "
Lu Yu Shu scoffed, "This is a good opportunity, kill him!"
Xi Wu opened his mouth, glanced at Hu Guang Hui and stopped talking. He sighed, "Chief Hu, thank you."
"Alright, follow me," Hu Guang Hui smiled.
Lu Yu Shu waved his hand and said lightly, "Chief Hu. This time we're here to propose a marriage for my brother. Let Chu Li move out of that courtyard and change to another place. Chief Hu should be able to do it, right? "
"This …" Hu Guang Hui hesitated. He said awkwardly, "Young Master Lu, this isn't too good right …?"
Xi Wu said in a low voice, "Chief Hu, he's just a small Scribe, how can he be on the same level as my Young Master?"
"Yes, yes, that's true," Hu Guang Hui quickly nodded and smiled, "Alright, then I'll tell Scribe Chu Li. Ask him to move out of the West Courtyard. "
"I want to stay in his courtyard," Lu Yu Shu said.
"This …" Hu Guang Hui smiled bitterly, "Young Master Lu, why do you have to do this?"
Xi Wu coughed lightly, "Second Young Master, don't make things too difficult for Chief Hu. It's fine for us to stay here."
Lu Yu Shu looked at him discontentedly and Xi Wu gave him a look.
Lu Yu Shu snorted, "Alright, stay here first and let Chu Li move out. Don't be an eyesore in front of me, I don't like it!"
"Alright, I'll let him move out tomorrow," Hu Guang Hui smiled.
"What tomorrow!" Lu Yu Shu raised his eyebrows and snorted, "Move out immediately!"
"Young Master Lu, I really can't do this." Hu Guang Hui said helplessly, "If I do this, my position as a Chief will come to an end. After all, I still have to give him some face."
"Second Young Master, let's do it tomorrow," Xi Wu said.
Hu Guang Hui hurriedly said goodbye and left, for fear that if he stayed any longer, there would be more difficult demands.
Lu Yu Shu waited for him to leave and snorted, "Elder Xi, it's better to let Chu Li leave directly, why do you still have to stay for one night?"
"Second Young Master, Chu Li is bold and reckless, we have to guard against him," Xi Wu said, "If we force him too hard, I'm afraid he will do something reckless."
"He dares to assassinate me?" Lu Yu Shu sneered.
Xi Wu nodded slowly, "He will definitely do it!"
They had assassinated the Second Lady of the Yi Public House, it could be said that they had shed all pretense of cordiality. Based on Chu Li's guts, he would definitely dare to assassinate Young Master. He was as fast as a ghost and impossible to guard against.
"Isn't he afraid that the two Public Houses will go to war?"
"Young Master, I'll stay in your house tonight."
"… Alright," Lu Yu Shu snorted, "If he really dares to mess around, no matter what, I'll kill him!"
Xi Wu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Lady has used all her means, but he is still alive and well."
Lu Yu Shu snorted and said no more.
He had a deep understanding of Third Younger Sister's means. She really had a well-thought-out and meticulous plan. Even she could not do anything to Chu Li, it would be better for him to spend less effort and make him look bad to vent his anger.
Chu Li saw what they said through the Omniscient Mirror and frowned.
After he finished his dinner, Hu Guang Hui smiled and closed fist saluted, "Good news, Scribe Chu Li, heir to the High Duke is here to see you on behalf of the High Duke!"
Chu Li frowned, "Heir to the High Duke?"
"Yes," Hu Guang Hui smiled and said, "The High Duke is too busy, so heir to the High Duke will do it on his behalf. Please follow me."
Chu Li thought about it, got up and followed him out of the courtyard.
After passing through two courtyards, they came to a hall.
There were four middle-aged Protectors standing in front of the hall. They were all Innate Masters, full of energy and spirit. Their eyes swept over like a sharp blade cutting through the air.
Chu Li stepped into the hall.
Sitting in the hall was an ordinary-looking young man with a round face and big eyes. He had a domineering aura. With one look, one could tell that he was not a good person and was not easy to get along with.
"Heir to the High Duke, this is Scribe Chu Li from the Yi Public House," Hu Guang Hui smiled.
"Alright, you may leave," Song Shi Ling impatiently waved his hand.
"Yes, I will take my leave," Hu Guang Hui smiled and left the hall.
Song Shi Ling lazily looked at Chu Li, "Hey, I say, your Yi Public House is too ridiculous. You can be a rank two Scribe at this age. Your rank is too worthless!"
Chu Li closed fist saluted and said, "Heir to the High Duke, I have something to report."
"Say it," Song Shi Ling picked up the teacup and said casually.
Chu Li said, "The High Officials of your Public House, the Wang brothers, Wang Zhongzheng and Wang Zixu, killed the Castellan of Desolate Town. I am ordered by the Eldest Master to come and ask, what is your intention?"
"What are you talking about!" Song Shi Ling put down the teacup with a 'bang' and said loudly, "Killing the Castellan, you are talking nonsense!"
"Heir to the High Duke, this is not a trivial matter. How can I talk nonsense!" Chu Li said sternly, "My Public House has witnesses, I cannot deny it!"
