At night, Li Ye came to the backyard of the temple with his ironwood cue. Zhang Xiaopang arrived one step ahead of him and was practicing sword splitting. Pei Min was still nearby giving him instructions.
"Uncle, I'm late!"
Pei Min glanced at him and asked Zhang Xiaopang to practice squatting horse steps first.
Pei Min walked to the other side and said coldly for a while: "Today at the Sauvignon Blanc restaurant, someone threw twelve pot arrows from a five-foot line. It was you!"
"it's me!"
"I think it's you too. This kind of mind control can only be practiced in water, but why are you so arrogant? Do you think you have too few enemies?"
Li Ye sighed, "The reason is that I met a despicable person today!"
He then told what happened today when Yang Hui stood up for Xiao Feilong, and finally said: "I didn't want to pay attention to him at first, but I was worried that he would use despicable means to hurt my mother and Aunt Mu, so I competed with him, but I really
I didn’t know that throwing twelve arrows from a five-foot line would cause such a big sensation. This is my first time throwing a pot."
"This has nothing to do with whether this is your first time throwing pot. As long as you master the method of controlling your mind, you can have all the martial arts at your fingertips. But what I want to talk about today is not this, but the matter between you and Yang Hui!"
Pei Min looked at Li Ye and said: "This is why I don't approve of your association with King Si Ning. Those who deal with him are powerful people. If you don't help him, you will offend him. If you help him, you will offend other powerful people.
So what happened is that Xiao Feilong lost to you, which led to the Yang family behind him."
Li Ye sighed, "I didn't expect that Xiao Feilong couldn't afford to lose!"
"It has nothing to do with him. Do you think Xiao Feilong will publicize his loss to you everywhere?"
Li Ye was really puzzled, "Who said it?"
Pei Min said calmly: "Prince Si Ning and the Yang family have an old grudge."
Li Ye suddenly understood that it was King Si Ning who told the story, and it must be him. The polo circle is so small, and Xiao Feilong joined the Yang family polo team, how could King Si Ning not know about it? He told this matter,
Just to disgust the Yang family.
A glimmer of hope ignited in Li Ye's heart, "Then, will King Si Ning know about my bet with Yang Hui?"
"What do you think?"
Of course King Si Ning would know that he had asked Qiao Bin to beg his father. If Qiao Xingzhong was willing to speak for him, King Si Ning would probably help him.
After a moment of silence, Li Ye raised his head and said to Pei Min: "My nephew, please ask my uncle for one thing. Don't let them hurt my mother and Aunt Mu!"
Pei Min looked at his nephew's determined eyes and felt the determination in his heart. He sighed secretly in his heart. This child has his own thoughts and decisions. Since he must go this way, let him go! Maybe this is the way he should go.
His bloodline has already determined his path.
He patted Li Ye on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry! As long as I'm here, no one can hurt them."
Li Ye took off his coat, jumped into the well again, and brandished the thirteen sword moves under the water with all his heart. Today, his uncle mentioned the mental control method he had learned in the water, and he felt enlightened.
Practicing swordsmanship underwater is to make your mind control skills more and more powerful. It is like upgrading. You have mastered the solid foundation of mind control skills, and then you can make breakthroughs step by step.
Li Ye has found his direction. He knows that as long as he persists and uses the method of controlling his mind to practice swordsmanship, he will definitely succeed.
Pei Min stood by the well and stared at Li Ye in the water. He felt the changes in Li Ye, which were obviously different from yesterday. Every sword swing was full of control. In the second stage of controlling his mind, Li Ye had already
Almost getting started.
Pei Min looked at it for a moment, then turned around and left quietly.
………
In the morning, Prince Si Ning Li Lin was walking in the garden with her hands behind her hands, enjoying the warm spring sunshine.
At this time, the old eunuch Wang Shouzhong quickly stepped forward and reported: "Master Qiao wants to see you!"
Li Lin sat down in a small pavilion and nodded, "Let him come over!"
Not long after, the chief steward Qiao Xingzhong hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, I have already inquired about my position."
"Is the five-foot-long line throwing pot with twelve arrows from the Sauvignon Blanc restaurant Brother Li's masterpiece?"
"It's him. The prince guessed it accurately. He made a bet with the Yang family."
Li Lin stroked her beard and smiled: "I guess it's him. Five feet and twelve arrows. Isn't it a replica of the fifty-foot line shooting twelve balls in a row?"
"That's true. The investigation into this matter has taken a detour despite its humble duty."
"How to say?"
Qiao Xingzhong smiled bitterly and said: "I only found out yesterday that Quanzi was present at the time. He and Li Ye went to participate in the preliminary test of the polo club. There was a gambling fight during lunch. Quanzi knows the cause and effect clearly!"
"Tell me, I want to hear it!"
Qiao Xingzhong then explained the ins and outs of the pot throw in detail, and finally talked about the bet.
Li Lin narrowed her eyes and smiled and said: "Isn't this Yang Hui smart? He can't keep his temper at all. If I were him, I would bear it first and wait until the finals are over before appearing in front of Li Ye. That brat will burst into tears.
tears."
"The Yang family is just a nouveau riche. How can they compare with the prince's background?"
Qiao Xingzhong gave a compliment and a compliment, flattering King Si Ning, and then said: "This Yang Hui is the son of the young eunuch Yang Sui in the palace. Before the Yang family became prosperous, he was originally a scoundrel. The Yang family was favored, so he became more
It's Feiyang who is so domineering, he doesn't take Li Ye seriously at all, thinking that he will definitely be able to deal with a powerless boy with a flat head!"
"Is there anything in this world that is absolutely certain?"
Li Lin sneered and asked, "What next?"
Qiao Xingzhong told what happened next, and Li Lin frowned. He thought Li Ye would tolerate it for a year and wait until next year to take the exam again. Anyway, he will only be fifteen next year, and the Yang family has long forgotten about him.
Unexpectedly, Li Ye not only did not hold back, but actually signed a bet and bet on his polo future. Although his courage was commendable, it was very unwise.
This really puzzled Li Lin. In his mind, Li Ye was smart and resourceful. Sometimes even adults were not as smart as him. This child should not be so reckless and unwise!
As soon as she thought about it, Li Lin immediately thought, 'Does he want to take advantage of her?'
Li Lin asked: "I really want to know why he thinks he can avoid the Yang family's strong intervention?"
Qiao Xingzhong hesitated, not knowing what to say.
"Why, it's hard to say?"
Qiao Xingzhong had no choice but to tell the truth: "He asked a friend to give the letter of guarantee given to him by the prince to the Polo Federation."
As expected, I guessed right. This child really wanted to take advantage of me.
Li Lin stroked her beard and said calmly: "This kid is very smart and knows how to take advantage of the situation, but he thinks things too well. What if I don't want to interfere?"
"Your Majesty, there is one more thing I don't know whether I should say or not!"
"Just say it!"
Qiao Xingzhong sighed and said, "That scoundrel Yang Hui actually insulted the prince in public!"
Li Lin's face sank, "What did he say?"
Qiao Xingzhong said Yang Hui's rude words again, and Li Lin was furious, but he was very restrained and did not get angry, and his face was as gloomy as water.
Qiao Xingzhong really wanted to help Li Ye and return a favor to him. He understood the prince. The prince had a calm temperament and was unwilling to cause trouble. But if someone provoked him, that would be another matter.
Qiao Xingzhong did not make things out of thin air. Yang Hui did say insulting words about the prince.
Qiao Xingzhong saw that the prince was angry, and suggested in a low voice: "As a humble official, I am worried that if Yang Guozhong comes forward in person, with only a letter of guarantee from the prince, will Li Ye's support be a little weak?"
Li Lin waved her hand and said calmly: "To deal with a fourteen-year-old flat-headed commoner, there is no need for Yang Guozhong to take action personally. If word spreads, the Yang family cannot afford to lose face!"
He snorted coldly, "I want to see if the Yang family, apart from being despicable and scoundrels, do they have any clever tricks?"
