chapter 23
"Your Majesty, I've got a gift for you."
As soon as he returned to the palace, Li Yi went to Xiao Qingyue's place, "I don't know what your Majesty likes. I bought some of everything. They are all things from the street shops. You can try them out."
Xiao Qingyue waved the person away, "Anything else you want?"
"Does your Majesty have any misunderstandings about me?" Li Yi picked up a piece of hibiscus cake and ate it, "I can't just express my gratitude to your Majesty and come here to please her."
"Are you trying to please?" Xiao Qingyue was speechless as she looked at Li Yi who was getting excited about eating.
"There's no one else around, so I can't taste it for you." Li Yi didn't raise his head, picked up a piece of chestnut cake and handed it to Xiao Qingyue's mouth, "This is good, you can try it."
"Don't worry, I just ate it, it's not poisonous." Li Yi motioned to Xiao Qingyue to open her mouth.
"How's it going? Not bad, right?"
Looking at Li Yi's expectant eyes, Xiao Qingyue nodded. He was really brave, and now he didn't pretend at all in front of her.
This relaxed and casual atmosphere made Xiao Qingyue feel like she could take a breather.
"Your Majesty, my riding and shooting skills have greatly improved in the past few days. The emperor will go hunting tomorrow, and I will keep him in Zhaohua Palace." After receiving benefits from others, Li Yi said that he had to give something back.
Xiao Qingyue raised her eyes, "What if I don't want to."
Um... Li Yi blinked, "This will cost more..."
"I have already made a sworn promise to Commander Xiao. If you want me to defect, you will have to pay extra. Just say it at least and it will cost you two taels."
Xiao Qingyue raised her lips and smiled, then stood up and said, "I will give you a thousand taels, Li Yi, can you do it?"
"For the sake of money, don't worry, I will definitely work hard." Li Yi wiped his mouth and said with a smile.
"My dear, you are much more generous than Commander Xiao. If I have any business in the future, I will definitely do it with you."
"Go down." Xiao Qingyue shook her head and laughed.
"Okay." Li Yi shook the cake crumbs on his clothes and was about to go out. After taking two steps, he turned back and said, "Mother, I said I would recite a poem for you last time. I will do what I say.
You can’t destroy your own sign.”
After walking for two steps, Li Yi looked at Xiao Qingyue and said with a smile: "She is wearing a small fan with white orchids, and her slender jade belt dances with the sky veil. It seems that a fairy has come down to earth, and her smile is as bright as the stars when she looks back."
"Your Majesty, you should smile more and let us people have a good time."
Xiao Qingyue narrowed her eyes and said, "You are becoming more and more bold."
"The palace is in a cold state, and Li Yi is willing to help his empress relieve her loneliness, as long as the money is in place." Without the latter sentence, this would have been a very harmonious scene.
The slight ripples in Xiao Qingyue's heart disappeared in an instant, and she waved her hand to let people go away, which ruined the scenery.
Li Yi rubbed his nose and left. He had to talk about love and money. Xiao Qingyue saw that there was no chance of talking about love, so he couldn't hold on to the money.
People who don't even want divine grace are lonely, but they are certainly not lonely in that way.
But it's hard to say, maybe the emperor can't satisfy her? Li Yi thought randomly.
"But Mr. Li Du?"
Li Yigang had just walked a few steps out of Zhaohua Palace when a palace maid came to him and asked respectfully.
"Who is your master?" Li Yi is now in the inner palace, and he is quite a bit fancy. He is either inviting you this way or that invitation, and his attitude is very good.
I don't know if they are for the emperor or the glory and wealth behind them. Li Yi feels that the latter is the majority.
A person who is rarely seen a few times throughout the year can have a ghostly love.
"This slave's master is Wen Baolin."
Wen Baolin and Li Yi raised his eyebrows. He was so impressed by this woman. She lay in the emperor's arms and winked at one of his eunuchs.
He is definitely very ambitious and will use any means to climb the ladder.
In fact, she succeeded, but after sleeping with the emperor once, she came out of the Xiunu Garden, and with her status, her treatment was immediately different. No wonder those women eagerly wanted to climb onto the dragon's bed.
"Lead the way."
Although he works in the former department, Li Yi also needs to cooperate with his concubines. At critical moments, the pillow style is very effective.
Like this Wen Baolin, he is willing to lower his figure. If his brain is not stupid, he can still cooperate.
Baolin's status is only the sixth rank, and he does not have his own palace. He is unified in Fangyuxuan, and everyone has a room.
When Li Yi entered the room, he caught a glimpse of Wen Guo, who was lying on the imperial concubine's couch, with a lazy posture and a hint of charm in her eyes. At first glance, she could tell that she was not peaceful.
"My master asked me to call him over. I wonder if he has any instructions?"
"Sit down for Eunuch Li, and you all can go down."
As soon as the others left, Wen Yu stretched her waist as if inadvertently, revealing her curves.
The corners of Li Yi's eyes twitched, he was so brave, he actually seduced the eunuch.
Wen Yu slowly stood up, walked to Li Yi's side, and put her hand on his shoulder.
"Little Master?"
Li Yi turned to look at her. Is this woman really crazy enough to do something?
"Eunuch Li, I know you have a way to get the emperor to come over." Wen Yu leaned over Li Yi's ear, exhaling like blue, and her soft, boneless hands circled Li Yi's back.
Isn’t this move just an attempt to tempt someone into committing a crime?!
Li Yi looked frightened and stood up in a hurry, "Little Master, you..."
"Eunuch Li, I won't lose you." Wen Yu kissed Li Yi's neck, put away her flattery, with meaning in her eyes, and stuffed a bag of silver into Li Yi's hand, "Please ask Eunuch Li tomorrow.
Already."
"Young master is really..." Li Yi shook his head, as if he didn't know what to say, "Young master, I'm going back first."
When he reached the door, Li Yi paused, seemed to look back, and hurried out again.
Wen Yu smiled sweetly when she saw this. There is no one who truly has no desires and desires. Even a eunuch is not exempt from vulgarity.
How terrifying! These days, eunuchs are no longer safe. After leaving Fang Yuxuan, Li Yi trembled.
"Sir, Master Cai sent someone to deliver a letter."
In the Duke Zhan's mansion, an attendant entered the room, walked to a handsome young man and said respectfully, holding the letter in both hands, and handed it over.
The young man looked at it but did not open it. Cai Hengjie was just begging him to punish the eunuch named Li Yi.
It's not an important matter, it won't bring him any consequences.
"Go and send a message to Chi Er, asking him to set up a table at Zuichun Tower tomorrow night and treat that Li Yi to a good drink." The young man said with a smile on his lips and a casual attitude.

The attendant resigned after receiving the order, and the young man picked up his pen and continued to draw his landscape painting. This was the scenery he saw when he was traveling abroad. After the painting was completed, it should be sent to the Tang family.
The young man is the second son of the Duke of Zhan. His mother is Princess Ziyue, and his father is the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. His eldest brother is born with a congenital deficiency and has been bedridden for many years. The person who will succeed the Duke of Zhan in the future is, not surprisingly, him.
Needless to say, he has a noble status. He and Tang Xin, the eldest daughter of the Tang family, were engaged to be married two years ago. If Liao Ji hadn't gone out to study with his teacher, they would have been married.
Because the eldest prince, Liao Ji and Cai Hengjie had been in contact with each other before, Liao Ji would take heed of Cai Hengjie's request.
