The sun sets in the west and the afterglow covers the lake. ↗,

As soon as Chu Li returned to the East Garden, Suru arrived and took him to Yuqi Island.

As soon as I arrived downstairs, I heard the sound of cong, cong and piano. The sound was fierce, and there was a hint of murderous intent.

He turned to look at Suru.

Suru sighed and whispered: "The young lady had a quarrel with the eldest young master."

"because I?"

"Yes." Suru whispered, "The eldest son is very unhappy."

Chu Li smiled, guessed something, and then used the big round mirror to look at her to understand what happened.

Gu Litong was expelled from the palace by the eldest son himself. His criterion for employing people was that they should have both ability and political integrity. He would never hire anyone without virtue and talent.

According to him, since Gu Litong was expelled from the government, he was no longer a member of the Duke's Palace and was left to his fate. Besides, the Renguo Palace was not just killing him but recruiting him, so there was no need to be troublesome.

Chu Li led his men to kill twenty guards of Renguo Duke's mansion. When the news reached the mansion, the eldest son became furious.

Don't mess with that lunatic Lu Yurong if you can. The Renguo Duke's Mansion is powerful and cannot be stopped by the Yi State Duke's Mansion. We should try our best to avoid conflicts and recuperate. It would be better this time if we take the initiative to attack. That woman Lu Yurong will definitely retaliate crazily. Twenty people died in the Duke Ren’s Mansion, and they wanted to kill at least forty!

Xiao Qi gave the order without authorization, ignored his authority, and was lawless!

The eldest son originally wanted to deal with him, but Xiao Qi disagreed and the two quarreled.

Xiao Qi scolded the eldest son for being pedantic. That woman, Lu Yurong, was always pushing the envelope and didn't know what was enough. It was simply ridiculous to make peace with such a woman.

Duke Yi's mansion must not compromise. Only after beating Lu Yurong was he able to be harmonious. Now the morale of the guards in the mansion has declined greatly, and the situation is not good.

Xiao Qi is in charge of cleaning up the atmosphere in the house, while the eldest son is in charge of the outside and mobilizing guards.

Xiao Qi saw that the Duke's mansion was being restrained everywhere, and finally she couldn't bear it anymore, so she took this step.

Suru lowered her voice: "Be careful, Miss is not happy!"

Chu Li said: "It doesn't matter, right?"

Suru waved her beautiful hands and said with a smile: "The two of them don't quarrel once or twice. They quarrel every few days, and it will be fine in two days, but you have to avoid the big man!"

"It just so happens that I have to concentrate on practicing the Vajra Du E magic skill."

"Well, it's best not to come out in the courtyard."

"no problem."

The two of them stepped into the Star Observation Tower and reached the third floor.

Xiao Qi faced the window with her back to them, sitting in front of the table and playing the piano. The graceful and graceful back made Chu Li's heart beat.

"Miss." Suru called softly: "Chu Li is here."

The sound of the piano stopped suddenly, Xiao Qi turned around, her beautiful face was cold and cold.

She pointed with her delicate hand at the moon-white futon opposite.

Chu Li walked over and sat on the futon, looking at him quietly.

The faint fragrance from her body floated into her nose, refreshing her heart. She looked at him with clear eyes: "You did a good job this time."

"It's very dangerous. Lu Yurong has arranged four groups of people."

Xiao Qi nodded softly: "She is full of tricks and is really difficult to deal with."

"The Duke Renguo's infiltration into us is too powerful." Chu Li muttered: "Almost all the way to Jinghai has been infiltrated, which is shocking!"

Xiao Qi's face dropped.

Chu Li said: "If something happens, they can intercept our communications, so we must be on guard!"

Xiao Qi's eyes flashed.

Chu Li sighed: "Jinghai Road has almost become their back garden. This is just Jinghai Road. I'm afraid the other roads in the house are not optimistic either!"

There are twelve roads in the world, and each government palace guards one road. Each road is divided into six branch roads. The one they pass through is the Jinghai branch.

Suru tugged on his sleeve.

Chu Li pretended not to see it and continued: "To this extent, our guards are not safe at all. If word spreads, people will be upset, and the consequences will be unpredictable!"

Xiao Qiyu's face became more and more gloomy.

Suru whispered: "Stop talking!"

Chu Li seemed not to have heard it and continued: "Miss, if this continues, the Duke's Mansion will be useless and will be slaughtered by others!"

"Shut up!" Xiao Qi snorted.

Chu Li looked at her quietly.

Xiao Qi had a calm face and said coldly: "I didn't expect the situation to be so serious!"

Suru said: "Miss, it's not that serious, right?"

Chu Li sighed at her: "It's more serious than I said. Think about it, they can assassinate you whenever they want when you go out. How terrible!"

"The guards around the young lady are enough to handle it." Suru hummed.

Chu Li shook his head: "Ten people can handle it, a hundred people can handle it, but what about two hundred? They can mobilize their people at will without being noticed by us, and treat our house as their own!"

Suru stopped talking.

Xiao Qi sighed for a long time and shook her head.

Chu Li didn't say any more, it was useless to talk too much.

"Where's Gu Litong?" Suru changed the subject.

Chu Li said: "We have arrived at Jinghai City."

"It's hard for him to come back." Xiao Qi frowned and said, "Big brother won't tolerate him."

"Actually, he is a useful talent. Why don't you take him under your wing, Miss?"

"Insufficient xinxing makes it difficult for a big task." Xiao Qi said.

Chu Li sighed: "What a pity."

He was able to put Gu Litong to use. He had the wisdom of a round mirror and could see his thoughts at any time. He could see the slightest movement and strike at any time. Moreover, Gu Litong also had a fatal weakness. If he caught it, he would dare to rebel.

"Observe for a while first." Xiao Qi muttered: "If you perform well, then I will transfer you here."

Chu Li smiled.

Xiao Qi also has the ability to penetrate people's hearts and dare to use him.

Precisely because she has such ability, she knows that people's opinions are too demanding to have both ability and political integrity. She is tolerant and tolerant, which is different from the arrogance of the eldest son. The two have conflicting styles.

Xiao Qi looked at him quietly: "Chu Li, you did a good job this time, but it's a pity that you can't take credit."

Chu Li smiled and said, "Miss, what are you talking about?"

Xiao Qi said: "Stay in the mansion and don't go out. There is the Renguo Duke's mansion over there at Daleiyin Temple. Lu Yurong will take crazy revenge!"

"Well, I'll stay at home and practice."

"Second sister is going to Jinghaicheng to celebrate her birthday next month." Xiao Qi frowned and said, "You can go with me."

"Jinghaicheng?" Chu Li frowned.

Suru hurriedly said: "Miss, is it too dangerous?"

Daleiyin Temple and Renguo Duke's Mansion are going to deal with him. If he goes out, wouldn't he be destined to die

Xiao Qi said: "Practice the Vajra Du'e Divine Art to the third level within a month, and with the fact that we are so far away, we will have the power to protect ourselves!"

Although she doesn't practice the Vajra Du'e magic skill, she knows the changes at each level. At the third level, it is difficult to be harmed by swords, and most of her internal energy can be released. Plus, it is so close to the end of the world, it is enough to protect herself.

Chu Li looked troubled: "The third level... I'm afraid it will be difficult!"

"Anyway, you can do whatever you want." Xiao Qi said lightly.

Chu Li saw a painting on the case and said with a smile, "Is this the lady's masterpiece?"

Xiao Qi picked up the drawing paper and handed it to him.

There is a painting of a tiger descending from the mountain. It is so powerful that it seems that it will pounce out of the painting at any time.

Chu Li sighed: "What a heavy evil spirit!"

His mind moved, and he vaguely felt that this painting was beneficial to the people. Watching the tiger could gain its divine meaning, and it would be helpful in practicing the White Tiger Refining Yang Diagram.

"It's far worse." Xiao Qi said, "Only after seeing Lu Boyuan's paintings did I know what evil spirit is."

Chu Li said: "Miss, do you have Lu Boyuan's paintings?"

Lu Boyuan, a master of painting in the former dynasty, was especially good at painting tigers. Others painted tigers by painting skin, flesh, and bones. He painted tigers by painting spirit and spirit. The tiger pictures he painted were said to be supreme masterpieces and priceless.

"How many pictures would you like to see?"

"Can I see it?"

"Xiao Ru, you can send it to him later." Xiao Qi said, "Enjoy it for a month."

"Thank you, miss!" Chu Li was overjoyed.

Xiao Qi waved her jade hands.

Chu Li said goodbye and left knowingly.

He returned to the small courtyard of Yuqi Island, opened the door and went in. The setting sun illuminated the small courtyard in red. Xueling, dressed in a moon-white outfit, slowly and softly practiced the Eight Taiyin Postures. He turned his head when he heard the voice, and his beautiful face showed surprise.

Chu Li said: "Why are you staring so big?"

Xueling quickly calmed down: "Sir, when did you come back?"

"Just came back." Chu Li entered the living room.

Xueling followed up: "You haven't eaten yet, have you?"

"Yes." Chu Li lazily sat down in the Grand Master's chair and breathed a long sigh of relief. The pursuit and escape this way had been very tiring, and now he could completely relax.

Xueling got busy, her hands and feet were nimble, she quickly made tea and served it, and then went to cook again.

By the time Chu Li finished drinking a cup of tea, Xue Ling had already made four side dishes and brought them up. She also held a jar of fine wine and filled a cup for him: "Master, please rest your stomach first, and I will make a good supper for you tonight. "

Chu Li sniffed the alluring aroma, nodded with satisfaction, held a dish, drank wine, and listened to Xueling talk about the major events that had happened in the house in the past few days.

"Squeak..." The courtyard door was pushed open, and Suru curled in.

She was holding a long box with a dark purple luster. When she saw Chu Li eating vegetables with a contented expression, she pursed her lips and smiled and said: "I'm so blessed! ... Painting!"

Chu Li put down his wine glass and stepped forward to take it.

Suru handed it to him: "There are a total of ten paintings by Lu Boyuan here. You have to be careful not to damage them. The lady is very precious. If you hadn't made a contribution this time, the lady would not have been willing to take them out!"

Chu Li smiled broadly and stroked the long purple box: "Of course, of course!"
