Li Qing called Li Yu, "How many brothers do we have in total now?"
"Sir, in addition to the 50 people taken away by Deputy Liu Qianhu, there are still 158 people."
"Okay, that's all for the time being." Li Qing said, "You immediately take the people to Bashu and cooperate with Liu Qiang to inspect the Prince Consort Ouyang Lun."
Li Yu was startled, "Sir..."
"Yes." Li Qing nodded, "Let's go check it out. Make sure everything is detailed. If anything happens, I will take care of it."
"But..." Li Yu swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty, "He is a prince-in-law!
Do we really want to attack the consort?"
Li Qing said nothing more, but looked at Li Yu lightly. In the end, Li Yu was defeated by his sharp gaze.
"I humble my duty and obey my orders."
Li Qing then smiled and said, "Get ready and set out early tomorrow morning to check carefully and carefully."
"Yes!" Li Yu said yes with his hands raised.
After a pause, "Sir, regarding Duke Cao Guo... the emperor didn't punish you, did he?"
"I enforce the law impartially, why does the emperor punish me?" Li Qing said with a smile: "Don't worry and go and investigate. The Jin Yiwei has this right. As long as you do things according to the rules, there will be nothing wrong."
"I understand."
…
After leaving Zhenfusi, Li Qing had a bowl of Yangchun noodles in a restaurant, went home and practiced for a while, then fell asleep.
When I woke up again, it was already afternoon.
Li Qing washed himself, put on a dark robe, picked up the medical book left by his master and read it, preparing for the next stage of Queen Ma's treatment.
Before I knew it, dusk had fallen.
Li Qing stretched out and had nothing to do. Apart from going to Zuixian Tower, he had no other place to entertain himself.
The ten most elegant things for a gentleman are: calligraphy, burning incense, drinking tea, listening to the rain, appreciating the snow, waiting for the moon, drinking wine, growing flowers, playing the harp, and seeking secluded places. Li Qing only loves to seek secluded places and explore secluded places.
Wanling Pavilion is already packed with people.
As soon as Li Qing arrived, all the prostitutes immediately paid attention and some bold ones came up to chat with him and asked him about the annotation of "Gift Wanling".
He was left speechless for a while. If he really talked about annotations, Hanlin bachelor's degree would be perfect, and these people's 80 points would be too much for him as an 'author' to pass.
Helpless, he had no choice but to pretend to be profound and said: "It's just what I feel, how can I have any explanation?"
At this time, the Madam greeted her enthusiastically, "Sir, you are here. Wan Ling and the others are worried about you. Please follow the slaves to the second floor."
Li Qing nodded and went up to the second floor under the envious eyes of everyone.
Wing room.
Ice cubes, fine wine, side dishes... more exquisite and thoughtful than ever.
"Sir, please wait a moment. I will call Wanling and the others right now." The Madam said flatteringly, "Hongxiu, Lianxiang has come to Kuishui. How about I ask two oirans to serve you sir?"
"No."
Li Qing waved his hand gently, "You don't have to be interested in Taoyuan to be romantic, listening to the sound of the flute at night is also an elegant thing."
The bustard smiled and said, "Young master is really... affectionate. I'm sorry to be with you."
"Emotional?" Li Qing smiled playfully, sat down and poured himself a drink.
Not long after, three women came together.
Seeing Li Qing'an sitting calmly at the table drinking, I couldn't help but be surprised and happy.
"Sir, are you okay?"
"What can I do?" Li Qing said with a smile, "Sit down, please sit down."
The three women sat down gently and deftly. Lianxiang added a glass of wine to Li Qing and couldn't help but asked curiously: "Master, what happened after you took that man away last night?"
"It's nothing. He was put in jail and beaten, and he was released this morning." Li Qing raised a glass of wine and said casually, "I don't have any special hobbies, what else can I do to him?"
"..."
Wan Ling's eyes became brighter and brighter, "Look at that person's background. Aren't you afraid of his revenge?"
"A young boy, I'm afraid of what he will do." Li Qing said with a smile, "Don't worry, he shouldn't dare to make trouble again in the future."
After hearing this, the girls felt that Li Qing had a very powerful background.
Wan Ling blinked her straight eyelashes and bowed, "Master, wait a moment, Wan Ling goes to prepare."
Lianxiang and Hongxiu looked at Wanling's back, enlightened and filled with envy.
Not long after, Wan Ling left and returned, wearing a dark pleated skirt. The skirt was slightly shorter than before, revealing her pink and white calves, which made her look even more slim.
Bright eyes, white teeth, lively colors, eye-catching!
It was also the first time for Li Qing to see Wan Ling like this. Her attire had changed slightly, but her temperament was quite different from before.
It's less childish and more feminine.
Especially the pair of bare feet, the soles of the feet were petite, cute, and thin, and the toes were as plump and well-proportioned as real ones. Li Qing had an inexplicable urge to hold them in his arms and play with them.
Wan Ling's face turned slightly red, she smiled brightly at Li Qing, fluttered her sleeves and danced.
Her fair and straight calves are full of pink, her slender waist is full of charm when twisting, her nose is high and her eyes are like paint, and they are incomprehensible.
Occasionally looking back and smiling, Li Qing's mind was shaken.
I can't stand it, I really can't stand it...
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Li Qing would never have believed that a girl of his age could be so charming.
Wonderful, wonderful beyond words.
Li Qing didn't bother chatting with Lianxiang and Hongxiu, his eyes were filled with Wanling's graceful dancing posture.
After a long time, Wan Ling slowly stopped, blushed and walked to the door to put on her embroidered shoes, and sat down shyly, nervously waiting for Li Qing's reaction.
Li Qing reacted greatly and clapped his hands: "Okay, she dances really well. Miss Wanling's celestial appearance has captivated the country and the city, which is rare in the world."
"Young Master is so complimentary."
Wan Ling looked a little shy, raised her head and glanced at him quickly, then quickly lowered her head, as if expecting something.
Li Qing was stunned for a moment, then realized something.
This girl probably wants him to recite a poem.
But poetry is about responding to the occasion, not just randomly picking up a poem.
It had to be appropriate to the occasion, and it also had to be after the Ming Dynasty. Li Qing couldn't think of it for a while.
When Wan Ling saw that he didn't speak for a long time, disappointment gradually appeared in her expectant eyes, and then mist filled her eyes.
Li Qing was speechless. He was about to bite the bullet and say a few words, but he heard Hongxiu say, "Sir, my daughter's feet are not for casual viewing."
You know, am I just thinking of words? Li Qing nodded in a funny way.
Lianxiang smiled and said, "Why don't you go and call the madam to redeem Wanling's body?"
"ha?"
Li Qing looked confused, "Redemption?"
"Otherwise?" Hong Xiu teased, "Young Master still wants to refuse to admit his debt, or maybe he doesn't like Wan Ling?"
"Ah? This..."
I didn’t do much to her, so why didn’t she admit it?
Li Qing suddenly felt like he was buying and selling by force. He had to take responsibility for just looking at the situation. What kind of truth was this? Besides, it wasn't what he wanted to see.
But when I say this, it sounds a bit like a scumbag.
Then he said: "Miss Wanling is pretty and cute, of course I like her, but... I'm short of money!"
This is the truth. With Wan Ling's current worth, he would never be able to redeem himself if he worked in Jinyiwei until Lao Zhu died.
Besides, even if he really had the money, he wouldn't want to redeem Wan Ling's life.
He would not do such a thing by dragging a good woman into the water and persuading a promiscuous woman to be a good person.
"With a family background like the master's, will he still be short of money?" Lianxiang looked unbelieving.
Li Qing was speechless: "What do you think I am? Rich, rich and handsome?"
Hong Xiu was startled for a moment, then understood the meaning of this new term and asked, "Isn't it?"
"...of course not."
Although he is tall and handsome, he has nothing to do with being rich.
Wan Ling, who had been silent all this time, suddenly raised her head and summoned up the courage to say, "Wan Ling has some private money, and with the power of the young master..."
"Power is a public weapon, how can it be used for personal gain?" Li Qing rationally refused, "If that's the case, what's the difference between me and that young boy yesterday?"
Wan Ling's body trembled, and she forced a smile and said: "Wan Ling is just wishful thinking, sir, don't blame me."
"No wonder, no, uh... don't cry!"
Li Qing felt very stupid.
He came to the brothel to be relaxed and happy, with fair transactions between the two parties, and no psychological burden. But when he was messed with like this, the nature changed.
"What...I have something to do tonight, I'll come back another day~" Li Qing stood up and left.
"Son..."
Wan Ling gently grabbed Li Qing's sleeve, with tears in her eyes and a sad look on her face.
Li Qing smiled bitterly, "Miss Wanling, it's not that Li dislikes you, it's really... I have something to hide!"
"Unspeakable secret?"
Wan Ling blinked away her tears and looked at Lianxiang and Hongxiu in shock.
The two girls shook their heads: "Young master is very strong!"
