"Everything above the third grade is possible." Sister Hua thought for a while and said.

"Is the person who escaped outside the Fengyu Building yesterday one of the Seven Kills or Pojun?" Li Xiao asked thoughtfully.

Sister Hua shook her head: "Probably not, the martial arts of the two adults are world-class, how could they be injured by your crossbow arrows."

Hearing this, Li Xiao frowned even tighter.

The god arm crossbow is the most powerful crossbow, possessing powerful destructive power.

Facing the extreme rate of fire, it is normal for even top powerhouses to be injured without knowing it.

After thinking for a while, Li Xiao asked again: "Then there are people watching outside the Wind and Rain Building, and you don't know?"

Chapter 38: Only five years old, but you already know about men and women?

Sister Hua looked a little surprised: "Is someone watching outside? I really don't know."

Hearing this, Li Xiao hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Do you think the person monitoring Fengyulou was arranged by Lord Hou?"

Sister Hua shook her head: "I don't know."

"Is that Narcissus also a member of Lord Hou?" Li Xiao asked.

"No." Eldest Sister Hua shook her head again, "This girl was originally a refugee. I saw that she was pitiful, so I adopted her back. She doesn't know anything about Master Hou."

"It's best not to lie to me. You have said so much. Once I find out that there are adulterated ingredients, you should know the consequences!"

Li Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at Sister Hua closely.

"Everything I said is true, just go and check it, young master."

"Okay, I'll trust you for now." Li Xiao nodded, and continued to ask: "Where is the place where you developed the poison?"

"There is a secret passage under the wine cellar of the Fengyu Building. Entering the secret passage is the place where poisons are developed. Several poison masters live in it all year round."

Li Xiao nodded and said, "I'm done asking, do you have anything else to say?"

Sister Hua looked at Li Xiao: "When will you let me go?"

Li Xiao smiled slightly: "No hurry, I will talk about it after I find that Lord Hou."

Hearing this, Sister Hua showed anger and said sharply, "You didn't keep your promise!"

"I gave you a chance before, but you were not sure, and now you still want to negotiate terms with me? How can there be such a good thing in the world?"

Li Xiao sneered, turned around and left: "Stay well!"

Outside the door, Li Junxian had been waiting for a long time.

"Uncle Li, send someone to find a secret passage in the cellar of Fengyu Building, and restrain the people inside, keep quiet, I guess someone will come to rescue them." Li Xiao ordered.

"Yes, Your Highness!" Li Junxian nodded, and then said, "Eunuch just came, and His Majesty summoned you."

"Father is looking for me?" Li Xiao frowned.

After thinking for a while, Li Xiao ordered: "Then Uncle Li, you go to the Wind and Rain Tower to watch, and I will go to the palace."

"This...Your Highness, the duty of this subordinate is to protect your safety, how can you leave at will?"

Li Junxian hesitated a little.

Hearing this, Li Xiao asked thoughtfully, "Have you heard of Seven Kills and Po Jun?"

"No." Li Junxian shook his head.

"These two people have extremely high martial arts skills. If you go to the Fengfeng Tower to save people, I'm worried that your subordinates won't be able to stop them, so you have to go there yourself."

"Don't worry, I am the King of Yue now, no one in the capital would dare to assassinate me in the street."

"OK then."

Li Junxian nodded solemnly.

……

Royal study.

"I have met my father, my father, long live my father."

Li Xiao salutes Li Er.

"Xiao'er." Li Er stared at Li Xiao expressionlessly, "I hope you can give a reasonable explanation for what happened in the hall today."

"Father, my son wants to marry someone he likes, not a woman he has never met before." Li Xiao sighed and explained.

"You haven't seen it before, how do you know you won't like it? Could it be..."

As Li Er spoke, his expression suddenly became strange: "Could it be that you already have a girl in your fancy?"

"Father predicts things like a god."

Li Xiao nodded in embarrassment.

Hearing this, Li Er's eyes widened, his mood was complicated, and his expression was very strange.

You're only five years old, and you already know about men and women?

This is outrageous too!

"Which family's girl? How old is she?"

Li Er's voice became softer.

"I don't know, I only met once."

While speaking, Li Xiao's mind recalled the beautiful girl wielding a long spear that he met in Tiance Mansion that day.

"Did you miss it once you met?"

The corner of Li Er's mouth twitched, not knowing what to say.

After a pause, Li Er said without doubt: "No matter what, the marriage has been settled. After you get married, you can marry whoever you want. Don't cause trouble for me now!"

Hearing this, Li Xiao heaved a sigh of relief: "Father Huang is wise, if nothing happens, I will retire."

"You want to leave now?" Li Er's face turned cold, "Don't you want to explain the matter of Fengyulou?"

Hearing this, Li Xiao rolled his eyes and immediately said, "It was the fourth elder brother who brought the minister there."

"is it?"

Li Er glanced at Li Xiao suspiciously.

"Of course, this is the first time for this son to go out, so how can he know what Fengyulou is?" Li Xiao said solemnly.

However, at this moment, the voice of the eunuch came from outside.

"Your Majesty, the Fourth Highness is here."

"Let him in!"

Li Er looked at Li Xiao playfully.

Not long after, a flustered Li Tai walked in hastily.

"My son-in-law pays respects to his father!"

Li Tai was a little panicked and looked nervous.

"I'm asking you, who took the lead to go to the Wind and Rain Building?" Li Er looked at the two of them coldly and said expressionlessly.

Li Xiao immediately patted Li Tai on the shoulder and said, "Fourth brother, my younger brother can't help you anymore, so I said don't go, you insist on dragging me, now it's over!"

Li Tai: "???"

He turned his head, looked at Li Xiao with a shocked face, and then looked at Li Er with a horrified face, just about to explain.

However, Li Xiao was the first to speak again: "Father, I feel that the fourth brother may also want to take my son to experience the prosperity of the capital. It is understandable, and I hope that the father will give me a lighter punishment."

I punish your uncle!

Li Tai was so angry that his teeth were itchy, he hurriedly explained: "Father, it's Brother Xiao who insists on going, it's none of my son's business!"

"Alas..." Li Xiao sighed, "Fourth brother, you are a bit nonsense, I am still a child! What kind of bad intentions can I have? I have never heard of the Wind and Rain Tower. How dare you say it wasn't you Introduced to me?"

"I introduced...but..."

"But what? The fourth brother is still stubborn, do you want to call the old bustard to ask?"

"you……"

Li Tai was stunned, the words came to his lips, but he couldn't say anything.

This is simply a blatant threat!

As soon as the old bustard called over, it would be impossible to hide the fact that he was a frequent visitor to Fengfenglou, and that would be the end of it!

At that time, it doesn't matter whether he brought Li Xiao to the Wind and Rain Tower or not.

He had never discovered before that his younger brother had such a treacherous side.

Li Er became impatient: "Stop arguing, who is it?"

Li Tai looked at Li Xiao for a long time, his face turned green with anger, and finally he could only say helplessly: "Father, I know my mistake."

"Humph!"

Li Er's expression turned cold, and he said without doubt: "Go back, face the wall for a month, if the time is up, you are not allowed to go out!"

"One month?"

Li Tai's face instantly wrinkled into a bitter gourd shape.

"Small?"

"Father is wise! My son obeys!" Li Tai responded quickly.

Seeing this, Li Xiao immediately said: "Fourth brother, if he knows his mistake, he will correct it, and this younger brother should learn a lot from fourth brother."

"Shut up, too!"

Li Erbai glanced at Li Xiao: "Don't pretend to be stupid, where is Fengyulou?"

"What are your identities?"

"Once this news gets out, what will be the reputation of the royal family?"

After a pause, Li Er said angrily: "You also go back and face the wall and think about it!"

Li Xiao smiled wryly, with a helpless expression on his face: "Father, I am still a child, and I just went to Fengyu Tower for a novelty, and I can't do anything."

"Even if it is passed on, it will never damage the royal family's reputation."

"You question my decision?"

Li Er squinted at Li Xiao.

Li Xiao immediately cupped his hands: "Father is wise, since there is a penalty, the third brother can't run away either, Father can't be partial!"

Chapter 39: The Arrogant Dali Temple

In the end, Li Ke was also dragged into the water by Li Xiao, and also faced the wall for a month.

After leaving the imperial study room, Li Tai wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, looked at Li Xiao angrily and said, "My ancestor, what do you want?"

"Why don't you, and don't yell, you will be finished if you are heard by the emperor." Li Xiao said casually.

"Why don't you do it, why did you plant it on me? You dragged me in that day!" Li Tai gritted his teeth and said bitterly.

"Fourth brother." Li Xiao looked serious, "I'm helping you, can't you tell?"

"Hehe, you asked for a month of confinement for me, you are really a good brother of the fourth brother!" Li Tai snorted coldly.

"No, no, fourth brother, think about it. You are amazingly talented, thoughtful, and deeply loved by your father. What does the boss think? He must be extremely afraid of you, and maybe he wants to trip you up secretly."

"But it's different now. With my help, the news of your lustful and sloppy work has spread, and everyone will think that you, fourth brother, are a playboy and a waste."

"In this way, the boss will not take you seriously." Li Xiao explained solemnly.

As soon as these words came out, the corners of Li Tai's mouth twitched, and he said speechlessly: "According to what you say, I should still be grateful to you?"

"You don't need to thank me, just kowtow."

After speaking, Li Xiao hurriedly turned around and left.
