The accounts had to be reconciled before the New Year, so Wen Hongling and the accountant of Jinhuatang were busy for a month in the twelfth lunar month. They finished the work before New Year's Eve and reported to Lou Jingyu.

It snowed heavily a few days ago and now is the time when the snow is melting. It is very cold outside.

Lou Jingyu did not stay in the study room, because if he was in the study room to manage things, Ying Shiyi would definitely have to accompany him.

Therefore, Lou Jingyu stayed in Canglan Palace more often, as it was indeed warmer in this palace than in the study.

Black tea was being warmed on a low fire in a red stove, the charcoal fire was crackling, and the spices burning in the incense burner turned into smoke, which came out from the top of the auspicious beast, poured upwards, and mixed with the warm breath to become a warm fragrance.

Lou Jingyu sat behind the desk, flipping through the account book and teaching Ying Shiyi how to look at the accounts.

I have taught him before, but as he said before, if Eleven wants to help, he can help, but I can't bear to tire him out, so I usually do it myself.

Lou Jingyu pointed at the words on the account book and showed them to Ying Shiyi. The two of them were very close to each other, and there was no room for a third person to intervene in the atmosphere.

The word "deeply in love" is the most appropriate to describe these two people.

"This column records the daily expenses of the church, and the bottom line is the number they checked and settled..." Lou Jingyu said patiently.

"Like this one, the next one is the income of the Red Sun Sect's industries, which is obtained after summary. This is different from what I taught you before. The previous one was the separate account, and this one is the general account."

"We have a lot of account books in the Chiyang Sect. This one is the summary and it's convenient to look at. Wen Hongling checks the separate accounts every quarter to prevent anyone from tampering with them. I'll also check them from time to time."

Ying Shiyi listened attentively and nodded from time to time.

He felt that A Yu's life was really not easy as he had to take care of so many things.

Once I have learned it, I can help him share the burden.

Wen Hongling was watching the two of them from the desk. The one teaching was patient and the one learning was serious. It was a good scene.

A smile appeared on her face unconsciously, and her heart felt warm.

That's great.

Lou Jingyu quickly went through it, kept the account book, wrote a note and stamped it for Wen Hongling.

"I'll leave the account book here for now. You can come back after the New Year to get it. Our master is very interested in it. Show it to him."

In Lou Jingyu's eyes, this account book that governs the income and expenditure of the entire sect is indeed a very good teaching book, so he gave it to Ying Shiyi for practice.

"Take this note and withdraw the money. Send the money to the Siqin Pavilion and have Uncle Jiang give it to the people in the church as rewards in two days."

Wen Hongling took the note and responded. She glanced at Ying Shiyi who was still studying diligently, then smiled and left.

As soon as she left, Ying Jiangyan, who was waiting outside the door, came in to report.

"Master, the Medicine Demon wants to see you."

Lou Jingyu put down the pen in his hand and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"This is strange. I thought he was still as calm as before. Why is he looking for me now? Has he finally lost his temper?"

Jiang Yan responded truthfully: "The two arrested Southern Xinjiang liaisons were also interrogated in the Criminal Court. These two people were not as tough as Medicine Demon, and they had already confessed before. So they were detained in the cell. Medicine Demon happened to see them, and he must have panicked."

Lou Jingyu snorted coldly: "You are panicking now, why didn't you tell the truth before? If he wants to see me so much, then let him wait. I'm very busy recently."

He thought for a moment and said, "By the way, throw this thing to the Medicine Demon."

He threw a token with a tassel to Jiang Yan. Although it was a token, its shape was very strange, like a stick.

The workmanship and materials look solid, and there are several gilded patterns engraved on it. This pattern represents a kind of plant unique to southern Xinjiang and not found in Daxia.

This thing was obtained from the two Southern Xinjiang contacts and was passed down by the Southern Xinjiang royal family.

These two contacts travel between the base and the Qishan Sect, and they must have a token on them to prove their identity. Lou Jingyu guessed that this might be it.

Moreover, the origin of this thing was consistent with what he thought.

Giving this to the drug demon was also to break down his psychological defenses.

As the saying goes, killing someone destroys their heart. The Medicine Demon used Ying Shiyi's life experience to trip up Lou Jingyu. So Lou Jingyu had to fight back.

"Yes."

After receiving the order, Jiang Yan quietly left. With Ying Shiyi accompanying Lou Jingyu, he has gradually become more sensible.

Lou Jingyu closed the account book on the table, and Ying Shiyi turned his gaze to him.

"What's wrong?" Ying Eleven asked.

"Take a rest and protect your eyes." As he said that, he took Ying Shiyi's hand and led him to sit on the couch.

Ying Shiyi's exquisite lock was still placed on the small table next to the couch. It was half unlocked in the morning and was unlocked again this moment.

Ying Shiyi had never known that the toys that adults used to play with to relieve boredom had so many varieties. It was Lou Jingyu who bought them for him.

"Do you still remember the story about the medicine demon that I told you before?" Lou Jingyu picked up the teacup and handed it to Ying Shiyi's lips to feed him water.

Ying Shiyi took two sips from his hand and nodded.

"This is only half of the story. There is a sequel. Do you want to hear it?" Lou Jingyu took away the cup, hugged him and sat him in front of him, and drank the remaining half cup of water.

"I do." Ying Shiyi put down the exquisite lock and looked like he was listening attentively.

Lou Jingyu lowered his head slightly and pressed his lips against his forehead. He kissed him until he relaxed in his arms before he began to speak.

"The Medicine Demon was imprisoned because of his own actions. He was expelled from the palace by the King of Southern Xinjiang and has been wandering around. With his skills, he has been able to make a living. He came all the way from Southern Xinjiang to Daxia and even came into contact with the court officials of Daxia."

"The concubine who broke the agreement has remained in the palace. The King of Southern Xinjiang dotes on her very much. Even though he knew about the unspeakable things between her and the Medicine Demon, he did not do anything to her. After all, there is a prince between them. Everything between this concubine and the Medicine Demon has become a palace secret."

Ying Shiyi felt a little sad when he heard this, and was curious about what kind of person this favorite concubine was.

She and Yao Mo had an agreement to elope, and Yao Mo gave up everything for her. Even after the King of Southern Xinjiang knew about it, he still doted on her. It is estimated that these two men have true feelings for her.

Love can sometimes make people blind.

"So the Medicine Demon and that concubine never met again after that?" Ying Shiyi asked curiously.

Lou Jingyu tapped his nose and said with a smile: "I don't know whether we have met or not, but we must still be in touch, otherwise how could we have come to this point today."

He continued, "Time flies. Several years have passed. The third prince born to the favorite concubine has grown up. There are so many princes in the Southern Xinjiang Palace, all of whom are about the same age. They have all entered the battle for succession and started a bloody fight."
