The young maidservant was curious. The Second Young Miss used to hate studying even more than she did. In the academy, she would often make Old Sir Qin so angry that he couldn't breathe for a long time. Later on, Old Sir Qin simply didn't let her go.
But in the past two years, or more accurately, after the Lantern Festival three years ago, the Second Young Miss seemed to be possessed. Many times, she spent more time reading books than practicing martial arts.
She and the Second Young Miss learned how to read from the son-in-law. Now, she could recognize quite a few words.
She shook her head and put the book back, but for some reason, she looked at it again.
With just one look, she froze on the spot and opened her mouth in surprise.
She already knew quite a few words, so she naturally knew what was written on the page.
"Mandarin Duck Handkerchief".
She remembered that when she learned the words "mandarin duck", it took her a long time to remember it.
She knew this book. She didn't know many books and couldn't even recite all four books and five classics, but she was very clear about the contents of this book.
When the maidservants in the residence gossiped in private, they often mentioned this book.
The title of the book was "Mandarin Duck Handkerchief", but the contents had nothing to do with mandarin ducks or handkerchiefs. This was a book that taught women how to pursue men. The book detailed the methods and steps for a woman to pursue her sweetheart, as well as how to test if a man liked her and if he was worthy of her liking …
For example, the method of loosening the reins in order to advance … When the maidservants said these things, she didn't really understand them. But when the maidservants said these things, she didn't really understand them. Instead, she said, "To make a man remember you, you must first make him feel pain. To make him remember you forever, you must make him feel pain deep in his heart." "You can like a person's talent, his looks, or even his money. But if you like a person because he treats you well, then when he doesn't treat you well, you will have nothing …" She understood 70 to 80 percent of these easy to understand words.
This book had been banned by the government more than ten years ago. The reason was that many people believed that this book was obscene and harmful to etiquette, so it was impossible to buy it on the market. However, many women would still keep a copy and keep it under their bed pillows. They would then pass it on to their close friends and treat the words in this book as priceless advice …
It was said that the author of this book was an extraordinary woman. Because of her own experiences, she wrote this book to warn and teach all women in the world how to pursue the love of their lives and how to protect themselves. It was also said that the author of this book was a favored concubine deep in the palace. It was only because she had long seen through the love between men and women that she wrote this masterpiece …
It didn't matter who the author of this book was. What mattered was Second Miss — why did Second Miss read this kind of book?
She flipped open the book and found that some notes had been made.
She looked at the place where the notes were made and felt even more surprised. Who did the Second Miss like, and who did the Second Miss want to test?
…
Li Yi's hand was only scratched by a broken piece of porcelain. The wound wasn't deep. After a simple cleaning and disinfecting, he didn't bandage it.
Fang sat opposite him and looked at him with a burning gaze. He asked, "Son-in-law, do you have something on your mind?"
Li Yi was silent for a moment. He looked at him and asked, "Have you been to the Liu Meng often recently?"
"Quite often." Fang nodded. He was bullied by his own wife and couldn't fight back. He felt wronged and had to find a place to vent.
"How is the Liu Meng recently? Did anything strange happen?"
Fang thought for a moment and said, "Everything is fine. Nothing strange happened. It's just that a group of people passed the assessment some time ago. There are a few good seedlings among them. They look like humans, but I don't know if they are just embroidered pillows."
Everyone whom Old Fang described as a human or a dog was better looking than him.
Fang actually wasn't ugly. Other than his body being a bit strong and his face being a bit naive, he was quite good-looking.
But that wasn't the main point.
He looked at Fang and asked, "Do you feel that Ruyi has been acting strange recently?"
"Second Miss …" Fang thought for a moment and thought of the strange smile she had shown at the door. He nodded and said, "Yes."
Li Yi was silent for a moment and said, "Come with me to the Liu Meng."
…
"The number of core disciples in the Liu Meng has just exceeded three thousand. The number of masters on the three lists is also increasing every month. At this rate, it won't be difficult to reach four thousand by the end of the year …"
The Liu Meng was located outside the county. It occupied a large area and was equivalent to a small town. Lü Luo walked beside him and introduced the recent developments of the Liu Meng.
The Liu Meng had Xu in charge and many masters on the Heaven List. It was a great attraction for people in the martial arts world. The disciples who had passed through many rounds of selection were the best of the best.
After Lü Luo finished introducing the recent developments in the Liu Meng, he pointed to a room in front and said, "The League Master is there. I will take you there."
He pointed to the room. A woman put a letter on the table and said, "League Master, the situation in the Wu Kingdom is the same as before. The court and the rebel armies are still in a stalemate. There is no news of Princess Duanrong …"
The woman wore a tight white robe and was dressed like a man. Her hair was tied up in a bun similar to a man's. She had a valiant air about her.
As the leader of the female army directly under the League Master, her strength was top and she was ranked in the top ten of the Heaven List. Although she was a woman, no one in the entire Liu Meng dared to look at her as a woman.
"I understand, you …"
Miss.Liu nodded. Suddenly, her eyebrows moved. She took the initiative to hold the woman's hand and said, "You have worked hard. I know that you have admired Gyeong Of Silla for a long time and have wanted to meet him for a long time. Coincidentally, you have encountered a bottleneck in your martial arts. Come back with me today and meet Gyeong Of Silla. At the same time, you can get some pointers from my sister …"
The woman looked down at their hands that were held together, and her face suddenly blushed.
Somewhere in the Liu Meng, Fang looked in surprise at Li Yi and asked, "Son-in-law, why aren't you going to find Second Young Mistress?"
Li Yi shook his head and said, "I suddenly remembered that Second Madam's fish is still being steamed in the pot. If it is steamed for too long, it will not be tender anymore. We have to go back quickly …"
Inside the room, the woman looked down at the hand Miss.Liu was holding her hand. Her face was red and she said in a low voice, "League Master, you, you …"
"I know …"
The woman was stunned. "You know?"
Then, she lowered her head and her face became even redder. She said in a low voice, "I know that we are both women, and women should not like other women, but …"
"I know that you have long wanted to meet my sister and Gyeong Of Silla …" Ruyi was stunned. He looked at her and asked, "Ah, what did you just say?"
…
Gyeong Of Silla Mansion.
Li Yi was cooking in the small kitchen. Fang leaned against the door and looked at him worriedly.
At a certain moment, he suddenly said, "Son-in-law."
Li Yi turned around and glanced at him, his face expressionless.
"Does it hurt?" Fang asked.
"What hurts?"
"Where else does it hurt, Son-in-law?"
"It hurts."
"Your hand doesn't hurt?"
"Why does it hurt?"
"Because you cut your hand just now."
…
Fang finally understood. It was not the Second Young Mistress who was strange, but the Son-in-law.
The Son-in-law had been distracted for the whole day. He was cut by broken porcelain in the morning and cut his hand while cutting vegetables in the afternoon. This was something that would not happen even if he closed his eyes.
"What's wrong with your hand?"
At a certain moment, Miss.Liu walked into the kitchen and looked at his bandaged hand. She frowned and asked.
She looked up and saw that his eyes were confused and his expression was blank.
Li Yi shook his head and said, "It's nothing. I accidentally cut it …"
Miss.Liu took a step forward. "How could you be so careless? Let me see …"
"It's a small injury." Li Yi took two steps back and asked, "Is someone here?"
"Who?"
"Your sweetheart …"
"Sweetheart?" Miss.Liu glanced at him and a strange look flashed in her eyes again. She said, "I was just joking with you this morning. How can I have a sweetheart?"
"Joking?" Li Yi looked at her in grief and indignation. He walked to the yard and pointed at the gigolo standing in the yard. He said, "I saw you holding hands today. Don't tell me that was also a joke?"
"You misunderstood." Miss.Liu looked at him and explained, "She's a woman."
"Misunderstood? Woman? "Li Yi was even more indignant." Although I'm stupid, I'm not blind … "
Not only was he indignant, but he was also very disappointed. Did she think that he couldn't even tell the difference between a man and a woman?
Was she so perfunctory now?
He patted the gigolo's chest and said, "You said he's a woman. Where are her breasts? Where are her breasts?"
The face of the "gigolo" who was patted by Li Yi turned from red to white and then to green.
Miss.Liu did not answer him. She thought for a moment and looked at him and asked, "Can you beat the ninth on the Heaven List?"
