Stunning beauty

??

In the cold night, the sound of the sword rustled, and the sword energy was dazzling.

The phoenix blood protects the body, Li Ziye's injuries have long since healed, and he is fierce and domineering, cold and merciless in the movement of the sword.

In a room not far away.

Mao Nanfeng, who was tinkering with something, felt it, and looked out the window with a look of surprise on his face.

Nanling and his party, this kid has changed a lot.

The gentleness and restraint of the past are all gone.

Why didn't I realize before that this kid is such a cold and indifferent person.

Soon.

In the inner courtyard, the sword edge stopped, the cold wind blew past, and the sword marks on the snowflakes all over the ground disappeared.

inside the room.

The tea is boiling, and a pot of tea is just brewed.

Li Ziye walked back to the room, poured a cup of tea for himself, and also poured a cup of tea for the coming guests.

"See the little boy."

Not long after, in the courtyard, a man dressed in a green robe, with long hair reaching his waist, and half-hidden eyes appeared out of thin air, and saluted respectfully.

"sit."

Li Ziye spoke calmly.

"Thank you, little boy."

Tian Zhique stepped into the room and sat down opposite the tea table.

The tea on the table was steaming.

"Do you know why I transferred you from my second brother?" Li Ziye said indifferently.

"I don't know." Tian Zhique shook his head and said.

"Because you're smart enough."

Li Ziye said lightly, "Originally, the ground ghost's body skills are most suitable for the task I assigned this time, but unfortunately, the ground ghost is not as smart as you."

"Thank you for your compliment, young master."

Tian Zhique replied calmly.

"After finishing the work here, if you want to go back to Nanling, you can go back."

Li Ziye picked up the tea, took a sip, and said, "Don't force me."

"If the mission is over and I am still alive, I will seriously consider it."

Tian Zhique also picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip, and replied.

"You don't die so easily."

A smile appeared on Li Ziye's face, and he said, "Otherwise, you wouldn't be the number one among the five shadow killers."

"Young master is too famous."

Tian Zhique put down the teacup in his hand and said, "It's just a false name, killer, you should keep a low profile."

"Makes sense."

Li Ziye nodded, glanced at the open door, slapped his palm, and the door closed in response.

"Talk about things behind closed doors, and it won't affect others."

The door was closed, Li Ziye looked at the moonlight coming in from outside, and said, "Wait patiently, it's not certain when the fish will take the bait, but he should be in a hurry."

"Young master, why are you so sure that the fish will definitely take the bait?" Tian Zhique asked puzzled.

"Because of desire."

Li Ziye smiled and said, "Let me tell you a very simple story. In my hometown, there have always been some very stupid scams. They are not clever, but they can always deceive people. For example, I said that the tea in front of me can It prolongs life and cures all diseases, but it is very expensive and costs a hundred taels of gold, believe it or not?"

"Of course not."

Tian Zhique replied without hesitation.

"You don't believe it because you don't need it."

Li Ziye smiled and said, "However, there is such a person, who is now terminally ill and has no cure. Do you think he will buy my tea and try it?"

Hearing the words, Tian Zhique showed a thoughtful look on his face, nodded and said, "It's very likely."

"This is desire."

Li Ziye smiled and said, "Needs, fears, expectations, suspicions, flukes, and taking advantage of petty advantages are all desires. Make good use of them. People's hearts are actually very fragile and easy to deceive."

Tian Zhique heard what the person in front of him said, fell silent for a long time, and asked a question that shouldn't be asked, and said, "Am I waiting on the young master's chessboard?"

"Actually, I don't like chess very much."

Li Ziye picked up the teapot and added tea to the cups of the two of them again, and said calmly, "It's boring to give up, and it's even more boring not to give up. As for the question you asked, if you can sit here, you will be equal to the Li family. The elements, the Li family, don't count the Li family."

"pleasure."

Sky Tower said softly.

Li Ziye was about to say something more, when suddenly, the hand holding the teacup paused, the corner of his mouth slightly curved, and said, "Tian Zhi Que, it's your job."

Outside Li Garden.

A black shadow passed by, and after entering Li Garden, he tossed about in several rooms in the front yard, looking for what he wanted with his keen senses.

The inner court.

In the room, Li Ziye took out a box from the side, put it on the tea table, opened it gently, and asked casually, "Do you think he will break in?"

"probably not."

Tian Zhique shook his head and said, "He came here just to confirm whether the Li family has such a thing."

"good."

Li Ziye praised, "So, I said that you are smarter than the earth ghost, but I don't want to deal with this matter myself. After all, even a little involvement in the royal family's affairs will be very troublesome."

"Murder with a knife."

Tianzhique said softly, "Young master is brilliant."

"It's not smart."

Li Ziye drank the tea in his cup and said, "That old fox of Emperor Shang is very particular about checks and balances. He let the four princes fight back and forth, but never broke the balance. I want to know, if the checks and balances of the four princes are broken , how would he feel?"

forecourt.

The black shadow searched for a long time, suddenly, he paused, as if he had noticed something, and looked at the inner courtyard of Li Yuan.

After a while, the black shadow disappeared and swept towards the inner courtyard.

In the room, the lights were brightly lit, and the shadow stopped. Listening to the conversation between the two people inside, a strange color flashed in the cold eyes.

In the room, the sound of conversation continued to spread, and it seemed that no one noticed it in the middle of the night.

About a quarter of an hour later.

The black shadow left, as expected by the Que of the Sky, without forcing his way.

"Young master, this subordinate will leave."

In the room, Tian Zhique got up and said respectfully.

"Go."

Li Ziye smiled.

Tian Zhique nodded, stepped out of the room, and chased after him.

"These guys are really looking for a dead end."

As soon as Tian Zhique left, Hong Zhu came in with a fruit plate, sat at the table, and said, "Little Ziye, you are so sinister."

"I didn't do anything."

Li Ziye chuckled softly, "Sister Hongzhu did the poisonous bug, and Tian Zhique did the rest of the work. Even the knife to kill people is not in my hands, so it's none of my business."

"It's true that you didn't do anything, but your heart is dirty."

Red Candle said with contempt, "You gave the order, you borrowed the knife, and you are still the most insidious one."

"It's ridiculous."

Li Ziye smiled, took out a piece of candied fruit from the fruit plate and put it in his mouth, said while eating, "I haven't seen you for a few months, sister Hongzhu's ability to control insects has improved a lot."

"nonsense."

Hong Zhu said angrily, "You can all improve, but I am a talented girl, so why can't I."

While talking, poisonous insects crawled out of the snow outside the room one by one and entered the room.

Hong Candle took out a small gourd and put away all the poisonous insects.

Great Prince's Mansion.

The lights were brightly lit, and Mu Yuan was sitting in the room, just like his father, playing chess with himself.

At this time, a black shadow entered the room, and said in a deep voice, "There is indeed something, but I have been by the Li family's son all the time. In order not to startle the snake, I didn't force my way in."

"well done!"

Hearing this, Mu Yuan suddenly dropped the sunspot in his hand, and said, "The blood food you want, I will send someone to deliver it to you, go down and rest first!"

Soi Ying nodded, turned and left without saying a word.

night.

Tianzhique smiled coldly and retreated into the darkness.

at the same time.

In the eldest prince's mansion, an ordinary-looking young servant took advantage of the darkness to leave, not knowing where he was going.

Li Yuan, the inner courtyard.

The cold wind blew, the door opened, and a corner of the file was lifted.

On the first page of the dossier, there is a word "Yuan" written on it, so eye-catching.

It is not yet known who is the knife and who is the fish.
