Li Ye immediately came to see Prince Arolie. Unexpectedly, Arolie went to Luoyang for a visit and was not in Chang'an at the moment.
It was already noon. Li Ye found a tavern to have lunch and then headed back home.
As soon as he arrived in front of the mansion, he saw someone poking his head at the entrance of the alley opposite. Li Ye immediately rushed forward on his horse.
The man was so frightened that he turned around and ran wildly. After only running a few dozen steps, he felt a sharp pain in his thigh. He was shot by a flying knife and fell heavily to the ground.
Just as the man was about to get up, a knife was pressed against the back of his neck. Li Ye said coldly: "If I ask a question, if you say anything, if you dare to hide anything, I will let you die without a trace of death. Your
Who is the master?”
"I don't know anything, don't ask me!"
Li Ye swung his knife, and one of his ears was gone. Blood immediately flowed out, and the man screamed in pain.
"If you don't say anything, I'll cut off your right hand!"
"I said, it's Yang Hui!"
This answer really surprised Li Ye. Back then, Yang Hui poisoned his old horse, and before he could settle the score with him, he actually came to visit him again.
"Is your leader Yang Jian?"
"It's him!"
"Go back and tell Yang Hui that I don't have what he wants. If he dares to come to my house again, the old and new accounts will be settled together. I will cut his two sons into pieces. I, Li Ye, will do what I say and must pay him."
I'll tell you the exact words, if you don't say a word, I'll kill your whole family!"
"The villain remembers it!"
"roll!"
The man picked up his ears from the ground, covered his face and ran away.
Li Ye returned to the house and fell into deep thought. He really couldn't fall out with the Yang family now. His parents were about to return to Chang'an, and his grandfather. These were his weaknesses. If he wanted to fall out with the Yang family, he would have to wait until the Anshi Rebellion broke out.
back.
Li Ye hoped that the Anshi Rebellion would break out. Only when the Anshi Rebellion broke out would he have a chance.
Yang Hui was Yang Yupei's lackey. Since it was Yang Hui who came forward, it was Yang Yupei who made her own decision. She probably saw Yang Guifei's gem.
Li Ye thought for a long time and decided to go find Yang Yupei.
Sometimes you don’t have to use strong tactics to solve problems, strategies can also be used.
It is not impossible to give her a gem, but instead of giving her a gem, it would be better to hang her with a gem. It would be easier for her father to be an official in Chang'an.
Yang Yupei had the habit of taking a nap. She had just woken up and was lying lazily on the spring bed. The maid came forward and saluted: "Madam, there is a young man outside, called Li Ye, who is the governor of the river. He said you must want to see him!"
"
Yang Yupei narrowed his eyes. Yang Hui was really an idiot. He was discovered by others so quickly.
"Let him come in and see me!"
"Madam, where are you taking him?"
"Bring it to me, don't you understand?"
The maid was so frightened that she ran out quickly.
After a while, Li Ye walked into the Spring Pavilion on the second floor, bowed and saluted: "I'm sorry to see you, madam!"
Yang Yupei glanced at him and said coldly: "You don't kneel down when you see me?"
Li Ye straightened his back and remained silent. Yang Yupei then looked at Li Ye again. She saw that he was tall and straight, with a clear face and deep eyes. He was full of male masculinity. He was many times stronger than the guards around her.
?
Yang Yupei was a little annoyed at first, but when she saw such a young man, she couldn't help but swallow in her throat. Men are lustful, and so are women. Some women like handsome and handsome scholars, but some women don't.
I like tall, strong, masculine men full of wild strength.
Yang Yupei was undoubtedly the latter, her voice immediately softened, "What does General Li want from me?"
Li Ye placed a brocade box on the table, "Here are some gems for Madam!"
"Did your grandfather give it to me?"
"No! I brought it back from the river."
Yang Yupei was really looking forward to it. He stood up slowly and walked to the table. Li Ye's face turned red. Just now, Mrs. Guo Guo was half lying on the wide couch, covered by a screen. As soon as she stood up, her whole body was filled with tears.
Covered in a gauze as thin as cicada wings, only a bellyband is worn underneath, and all the other details are visible.
Yang Yupei quickly glanced at the young man. She could feel his embarrassment, which made her feel a little proud.
She picked up the brocade box and opened it. Inside were five high-quality gems. Her eyes lit up, but then she was disappointed.
She closed the brocade box and said calmly: "Five gems are very good, but they are not enough to make me happy!"
Li Ye bowed slightly and said: "This is the best gemstone in my hand. It was originally intended to be a bracelet for my mother."
What he meant was, I gave you all the gems I planned to give to my mother, what else do you want?
Yang Yupei handed the brocade box to Li Ye, "I'm very happy that you are willing to come to me, but this gem is far inferior to the imperial concubine's piece. Give it to your mother!"
Li Ye saw that Yang Yupei was getting closer and closer to him, and his chest was almost touching his body. He hurriedly said: "The imperial concubine's gem is called the blue of the deep sea. It has a special origin. Madam, do you want to hear it?"
Yang Yupei stretched out her slender fingers, squeezed Li Ye's extremely strong arm, and said with a smile full of approval: "A man like this is called an arm."
After all, she is a woman of status and will not act so eager. Moreover, the other party is Li Linfu's grandson. Even if she seduce him, she has to do it step by step.
She lay back half on the couch and said with a smile: "You tell me! I'll listen."
She signaled the maid to move a podium for Li Ye, and Li Ye sat down and said slowly: "The gemstone of the imperial concubine was indeed dedicated to her by me. It was first introduced five hundred years ago. There are ten of them in total, three of which are particularly beautiful.
Unparalleled, they are called the Blue of the Deep Sea, the Curtain of the Night Sky and the Heart of the Prairie. The other seven gems can only be supporting roles for these three.
These ten gems became sacred objects of Persian Zoroastrianism as soon as they came out. Later, Zoroastrianism set them in a crown and dedicated them to the Persian emperor. Later, the Persian Sassanid Dynasty was destroyed by the White Eclipse, and the crown fell to
In the hands of the white-robed Caliph, the ten gems have since been called the Caliphate's Stone."
Yang Yupei nodded approvingly, "The story is very grand and exciting, I like it, but what next?"
"One hundred and fifty years ago, civil strife broke out in the White Era and the crown was lost. Fifty years ago, ten Caliphate gems appeared in the Stone Kingdom. Nine of them fell into the hands of the Zoroastrian Sisters. They are now enshrined in Samar
In the Handa Guangming Temple, there was another gem that fell into the hands of Kundu Shi, the king of the Stone Kingdom, and was embedded in his crown. He humbly destroyed the Stone Kingdom and got this gem, which is the blue of the deep sea, and dedicated it to the noble concubine."
Yang Yupei understood that it meant that the nine gems were in the hands of the Zoroastrian. She was silent for a moment and asked: "Is the difference between the seven gems and the three gems just the size?"
Li Ye shook his head, "I heard that there is a big difference in quality between Bei Zhi and Bei Zhi. I estimate that the other seven gems are of the same quality as Bei Zhi's five gems."
"So what are the colors of the curtain of the night sky and the heart of the grassland?" Yang Yupei asked again.
"As the name suggests, one is black and one is green."
Yang Yupei was not interested in black gems, but she had thoughts about the green heart of the grassland.
She looked at Li Ye and said with half a smile, "Why do I feel that those two gems are actually in your hands?"
"Reporting to Madam, about five months ago, the Grand Guangming Temple in Samarkand held a grand ceremony for the return of sacred objects, which was to celebrate the return of the Caliph Stone. Madam, you can ask the officials of Kang State or the Kang State businessmen who have just arrived in Chang'an to find out.
What I said is true."
"Really? I would like to send someone to ask, if it is true, does that mean that I have no connection with the Heart of the Grassland?"
Li Ye smiled slightly and said: "It's just a gem. Madam wants it. I humble my duty and lead the army to wipe out the Daguangming Temple, and just give the gem to Madam."
Yang Yupei's eyes lit up, "Really?"
"Of course it's true, it's just that the humble job takes time, about two years."
"Time is not a problem. As long as you dedicate your heart to me, I can promise you some conditions. For example, you can come to my house at any time, even at night." Yang Yupei hinted at Li Ye.
Li Ye was unmoved and said slowly: "There are indeed conditions for a humble position!"
"Say it!"
"My father, who holds a humble position, will soon be appointed as the Shaoyin of Jingzhao. I hope the Yang family will not embarrass him."
Yang Yupei said calmly: "We have made an agreement. I will restrain the Yang family not to cause trouble to your father. If you can't get the gems I want in two years, then don't blame me for being cruel!"
After a pause, Yang Yupei glanced at him again and said with a charming smile: "The conditions I just mentioned remain unchanged and can be regarded as additional conditions. If you are willing, how about I take you on a night tour of my house tonight?
