"The royal family of the Wu Kingdom?"
The expression on Li Yi's face had already turned into one of astonishment. This world was completely different from the history he knew, including the current countries and all kinds of major events that had happened in history.
Since the wheel of history had gone awry, he couldn't find anything that he could refer to.
Of course, last time, he had stored all the books in Hong Wen Library in his head, so he was not unfamiliar with the current situation of the surrounding countries.
There were a total of three countries that directly bordered the Jing Kingdom.
Needless to say, the Qi Kingdom and the Zhao Kingdom had been in constant conflict with the Jing Kingdom in history, and the current situation was still a little tense.
The other country was the Wu Kingdom. Although the Jing Kingdom and the Wu Kingdom could not be called allies, there had not been much conflict before. For decades, they had not invaded each other.
The four countries had always maintained a delicate balance between them.
The Qi Kingdom was indeed powerful and ambitious, so it was guarded against by other countries. But it was impossible for it to be the enemy of several countries at the same time. Even if the Zhao Kingdom cooperated with them for a short time, they had their own ideas, and it was impossible for them to be of one heart and one mind.
The relationship between the Jing Kingdom and the Wu Kingdom had always been stable. For a long time, there was not much difference in the strength of the two countries.
However, several years ago, a certain prince of the Wu Kingdom launched a coup without any warning, killed his brother and father, and sat on the throne himself.
Since then, the Wu Kingdom had been in a long period of turmoil.
The loyal officials in the court were either dead or hiding. Several generals guarding the border, with the reason of bringing order to the chaos and supporting the legitimate wife, gathered troops and rebelled against the court. There were also countless rebel armies in the country, forming a group of heroes and forming a separatist regime, which gave the current court of the Wu Kingdom a headache.
These words were once again confirmed by the sloppy old man.
Li Yi had known for a long time that Monster Xu was from the Wu Kingdom. However, when one's martial arts cultivation reached such a realm, most of them would choose to go out and travel in order to make a breakthrough in their lifetime. As a result, the concept of countries and the like was much more vague.
"After the former Emperor was assassinated, Empress Wende also committed suicide. After gaining power, the Second Prince killed the Crown Prince with a cup of poisoned wine. Empress Wende's youngest son and the fourteen-year-old Princess Duanrong disappeared. They must have been hidden by the ministers loyal to the former Emperor."
The sloppy old man just narrated slowly without any extra expression on his face. "How could that old fellow Yang Wanli just watch such a thing happen? Did something happen to him?"
Li Yi looked at him and asked with a frown, "Xu means …"
The sloppy old man said, "Yang is the surname of the Wu Kingdom, and that little girl knows Yang Wanli's famous technique. Even if she isn't a member of the royal family, she must be related to that old fellow."
This was all he could get from the sloppy old man.
Li Yi thought for a while. Although she was young and was good at doing those rough jobs, if he thought about it carefully, he would find that apart from these things, she always seemed to hide some kind of temperament. Inadvertently, it overlapped with a girl who liked to eat egg fried rice.
The next time he entered the palace, he would ask the Eldest Princess about the situation in the Wu Kingdom. The royal family must have some secret ancient books that he couldn't see.
When Li Yi walked back, he glanced at the tightly closed door of Miss.Liu's room and felt a slight headache.
Her only disciple had left without saying goodbye. She definitely wouldn't feel good in her heart. Furthermore, she was the kind of person who kept everything in her heart and wouldn't tell anyone. Even if he wanted to make her happy, he didn't know how to break through from this angle …
"Ruyi was like this when she was young. She kept everything in her heart. When father and mother left, she didn't cry. She didn't eat or drink. She just sat by the bed in a daze for three days …" Ruyi looked at him and shook her head. "If she has something on her mind, she won't listen to anyone."
Li Yi showed a helpless expression and said, "If she keeps it in her heart for a long time, it will cause problems."
"Don't worry, husband. I'll talk to her tomorrow." Ruyi smiled and brought the wooden basin over. She put it by the bed and tested the temperature of the water. She said, "Husband, soak your feet first."
Ever since Ruyi got pregnant, she was not allowed to intervene in any of the family's matters.
With her physique, as long as she was not fighting another grandmaster, she would not be affected at all. However, this was an order from the Old Mistress. Xiao Huan followed her every day because the Old Mistress could not stay idle and wanted to do something. She had cried a few times.
However, during the days when Li Yi came back, she would fetch a basin of hot water every night and wash his feet personally.
Li Yi looked down at her delicate side profile. His eyes were in a trance and he suddenly jumped off the bed. Ruyi seemed to be a little scared. She looked up at him and asked in confusion, "Husband, you …"
"You used to wash my feet. Today, it's my turn to wash my wife's feet." Li Yi looked at her and pointed to the bed. He said, "Sit down."
"How can I do that? Husband, how can you …" Ruyi shook her head repeatedly. Li Yi picked her up and put her on the bed. He said, "It's natural for a husband to wash your wife's feet. Why can't you do that? Come on, sit down …"
The water was just right. Li Yi slowly took off her shoes and sock and soaked her feet in the wooden tub.
Her feet were delicate and as white as jade. Her toes were neatly arranged like round pearls. Li Yi reached out to hold them and could feel that her body was a little stiff.
Although he had helped her wash her feet many times, it was the first time he did something like this.
She couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Li Yi didn't show any abnormality. He lowered his head and was patient and careful. The woman in front of him was his wife. She was the closest person to him in this world. Compared to what she had done for him, this was really nothing.
At first, he thought that he had always been honest in his previous life. He didn't do anything evil. But the heavens sent him to a place like this. He had no family, no friends, and nothing familiar. Was it too much?
After experiencing so many things, that thought had long since been annihilated without a trace.
This was not a punishment, but a gift.
Many images appeared in his mind. In the end, there were still many people here who loved him and were worthy of his love. For example, this quiet woman in front of him. She was his wife, a small life that belonged to them, and was about to descend into this world.
Ruyi was perfect. Her appearance was unparalleled, and her martial arts skills were unparalleled. She was always so quiet and tranquil. She never had any temper tantrums. She would silently guard behind you and only appear when you needed her. She satisfied all the fantasies a man had about his other half.
At this time, she sat quietly on the bed and he washed her feet. After a while, they were able to sleep in each other's arms.
Li Yi felt that his luck was really damn good.
"I, Liu Ruyi …"
It should be from that night in Willow Leaf Village. The moment the vague figure standing outside the door said this, his good luck began.
Lowering her head to look at his serious expression, her body gradually relaxed. She placed one hand on her lower abdomen and used the other to help him tame a strand of his hair. The corner of her mouth revealed a smile that could charm all living things.
"Thank you, my husband."
Li Yi raised his head and said, "Just a word of thanks. It's not sincere …"
A pair of soft arms wrapped around his neck. While Li Yi was still in a daze, he felt a cold sensation on his lips.
"How about this …"
She rarely took the initiative. Her pretty face was like a blooming flower.
Not long after, Li Yi sat by the stone table in the courtyard and looked at the ridiculously round moon in the sky.
The night was long, and he couldn't sleep …
