Li Yi had a dream, a very erotic dream.
He couldn't remember the content of the dream clearly after he woke up. He only remembered that the woman in the dream had an enchanting figure, but her face was always covered with a layer of fog.
Later, the fog dispersed. What happened next was even more bizarre. At first, the woman looked like Ruyi. Then, somehow, she turned into Wan Ruoqing. Then, she turned into Li Mingzhu. What was even more bizarre was that she turned into Miss Liu in the end.
Then Li Yi woke up with a start.
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and erased the scene of Miss.Liu chasing him with a sword from his mind. The reason why he knew it was an erotic dream was that when he was about to put on his clothes, he was embarrassed to find that his underwear was wet.
He sat on the bed and stared blankly for a while. He didn't even remember how he fell asleep last night. The faint fragrance around him made him a little more awake.
Unfortunately, he still couldn't remember the content of the erotic dream. He changed into a clean underwear and got up to wash his underwear in the morning. Ruyi pushed the door open and came in with a basin of hot water. Seeing what he was doing, she put down the copper basin and said, "Come and wash first, my husband. I'll wash your clothes."
Li Yi was embarrassed to let others wash his underwear for him even though they were close. Li Yi was about to refuse when an old woman with a straight face came in from outside and said, "County Magistrate Li, my lady is here."
Since the princess was here, Li Yi had to put down what he was doing first. He simply washed his face, wiped it, and followed her outside.
Most of the people in Willow Leaves Village had left, and the houses were empty. Last night, the old woman and the others rested in one of the houses. When Li Yi and the old woman walked over, the people she brought yesterday were guarding around. After Li Yi went in, he immediately closed the door. A dozen people patrolled around the yard. Although it was not so exaggerated that even a fly couldn't fly through, it was extremely strict.
A stooped old man with white hair and a trembling body approached from afar. Just as he was about to enter the courtyard, a guard hurried over and blocked his way.
"Old man, you can't go in here," the guard said politely. His tone was gentle.
Her Royal Highness was in the courtyard next door. The people in the surrounding courtyards had been cleared out by them. For the safety of Her Royal Highness, of course, they couldn't let this old man in.
"This is my home. Why can't I come in?" The old man was stunned for a moment. He raised his head and looked at him with narrowed eyes. "What's going on? I went out for a stroll early in the morning, and now I'm not even allowed to enter the house?"
The guard forced a smile and said: "Old man, why don't you take a stroll outside and come back later?"
The guard felt depressed. If Her Royal Highness hadn't told him not to be rude to the people here, he wouldn't have talked so much nonsense with this old man.
The old man looked at him with dissatisfaction and said: "My old arms and legs can't walk anymore. Who are you? Do you still respect the law? Does the world outside still belong to the Li family?"
The guard's mouth couldn't help but twitch. He couldn't answer the old man's words. At this moment, the old woman noticed the situation here. She walked over and asked: "What's wrong?"
"Nanny, this old man insisted on going in." The guard cupped his hands and respectfully retreated to the side.
This kind of thing should be solved by the people above.
"We still have to respect the law …" The old man shook his head and slowly walked towards the courtyard.
"Stop!" The old woman didn't care so much. She immediately reached out to grab the old man's shoulder.
When the old man took a step forward, he accidentally tripped on the stairs. His entire body staggered and he almost fell to the ground. However, the old woman's grab just happened to miss. He used his walking stick to stabilize himself and stood up with great difficulty. He shook his head and sighed: "I'm old, I'm useless …"
A trace of doubt flashed across the old woman's face. Just as she was about to make another move, the old man massaged his waist and seemed to be talking to himself: "Young lady's legs are still nimble. It's just that these mantis claws are a bit lacking …"
Hearing this, the old woman's expression froze. At this moment, the old man had already pushed open the courtyard's door and walked in.
"Young lady …" The guard didn't hear the second half of what the old man said. He almost couldn't help but laugh when he heard the way the old man addressed the nanny.
However, after thinking about it carefully, this old man was a bit older than the nanny. There didn't seem to be anything wrong with what he said …
At this moment, the guard didn't notice that the old woman's face was pale.
"You two …"
His murky old eyes were filled with dissatisfaction and disbelief as he murmured two words.
…
…
When Li Yi walked in, MIngzhu, who was dressed in light clothing, was standing in the courtyard. She pointed at the stone table and stone stools that had been wiped clean and said: "Sit."
"Since you knew those people were coming yesterday, why didn't you come find me?" MIngzhu sat down opposite him and asked him.
"Just a small matter, there was no need to trouble you." Li Yi shook his head and said.
Based on the scale of the people in the forest last night, unless there were enough experts, or if they directly mobilized the troops stationed in the prefectural city, otherwise they wouldn't have much of an effect.
Even if she was the Princess, she didn't have the power to mobilize the troops. Furthermore, she was always elusive. After hitting a wall at Ning Wang Fu, in an emergency, she didn't have the time to ask her for help.
It was better to use the most direct and effective method, just like last night.
MIngzhu's expression was slightly shocked. She had learned about the danger last night from the nanny, but she didn't think that when he spoke of this matter, he would be so indifferent.
"The 'Sky Punishment' last night, what happened?" After seeing with her own eyes that Li Yi was fine, her heart relaxed and she went straight to the point.
Speaking of which, this matter was actually the biggest unexpected gain last night.
Did the person in front of her, whom she and her royal father had placed such high hopes on, really attract the Sky Punishment?
She had personally asked those people of the forest who had been captured, but those people had long been scared out of their wits and didn't know anything. The few who knew had most likely died under the 'Sky Punishment' at that time.
"If I said that the heavens couldn't stand their actions and sent down lightning to strike them all to death, would you believe me?" Li Yi asked probingly.
MIngzhu looked straight at him.
Li Yi sighed, "Then if I said that this is the forbidden 'Five Lightning Heaven Heart Mantra' passed down from generation to generation in the Li family and only passed down to males and not females, you definitely wouldn't believe me, right?"
"Stop it," MIngzhu looked at him and said.
As expected, he couldn't fool her …
Li Yi used his own experience to prove that it was not easy to fool the ancient people just because they had less than a thousand years of evolution. Excuses like the Sky Punishment Forbidden Mantra couldn't fool them at all.
"Can I not say it?" Li Yi wanted to try one last time.
"No," Her Highness answered quickly and straightforwardly.
She had heard the nanny describe the scene last night. If she could master that level of power, it would have an extraordinary significance to the Jing Kingdom, which was not as strong as the surrounding countries.
Of course, she was still in a fog about that power. What exactly it was, whether it could be mastered by anyone other than Li Yi, and whether it could be used on a large scale were all unknown at the moment.
"I have a condition," Li Yi took a deep breath and said.
"Say it. As long as it's not too much, I can satisfy you," MIngzhu said generously.
She had been with Li Yi for a long time. Putting aside their good personal relationship, she admired his ability and talent very much. Naturally, she wouldn't be too stingy.
"I'm the only one who knows the core secret of that thing. It has nothing to do with anyone else. I hope you won't make it difficult for them," Li Yi said, looking at her.
When he said that, MIngzhu finally realized that what he was going to say next was extremely important.
Of course, she also understood the reason why he had been so worried since he came in.
"I hope you can understand," MIngzhu looked at him with a serious expression and said, "You are more important than the Sky Punishment."
When she said that, it was from the bottom of her heart, without any perfunctory or pretense. In fact, that was exactly what she thought in her heart.
Li Yi was a person who could create miracles and surprises. Just the fact that he could control the Sky Punishment was more important than the Sky Punishment itself.
Li Yi was stunned. He was surprised by her words.
"Am I really that important?" When he turned around and saw her serious expression, he couldn't help but be moved.
"Is this … a confession?"
