Chapter 82(1/2)

Li Yi grabbed Qi Yue's hand and was very dissatisfied: "Do I look so much bigger than you?"

Qi Yue looked up and looked at him.

In fact, Li Yi is very handsome, with wide shoulders, narrow waist, long legs, strong body, and no matter where he goes, he can always attract people's attention. However, he has been in a high position for a long time and has great power, so he will inevitably show the majesty of some superiors, which will add a bit of maturity to him.

This man was too tall, with people coming and going around, and many girls were staring at Li Yi secretly, and some even ate and smiled at Li Yi.

Qi Yue felt that Li Yi seemed too tall. His legs were too long. One step was two steps away. She frowned and nodded and said, "It's a bit old."

Li Yi was like a cat with a tail trampled on, his whole body was furrowed. He hugged Qi Yue's shoulder and asked her to press her against him, not allowing her to stay further away from him: "Dislike me? Hum?"

Who dares to dislike this old man who wants to chop off his head anytime and anywhere?

Qi Yue had a tense face: "I dare not."

She added: "If you hold me like this again, others will not suspect that I am your nephew, but that you have any great hobbies."

Li Yi: “…”

There are buns sold on the roadside. The hot ones have just steamed out. Under the snow-white fog, there are snow-white buns.

Qi Yue took a look.

Li Yi said: "Want to eat?"

Without waiting for her to answer, Li Yi squeezed in front and bought a bun for Qi Yue. Qi Yue took it and looked up at Li Yi: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

She took a bite.

This bun shop is also very famous in Beijing and is delicious. It will never close until night. Li Yi handed her the bun with a veil, and Qi Yue took it over and lowered her head to eat the bun, looking very obedient.

Even if she was eating, she was very elegant, with a small sip. Li Yi took her forward. Qi Yue's mouth was more picky and the taste was lighter. Li Yi knew that before he went out, Qi Yue also drank some soup, and eating some more things would definitely make her tired.

So, after Qi Yue took a few bites, Li Yi said, "Is it delicious?"

Qi Yue nodded.

Although it is not as delicate and delicious as the palace, it is just out of the cage and tastes delicious.

Li Yi bent down and put himself in her hand and took a bite. The skin is soft and the soup is delicious. It is indeed delicious.

The two had already walked out of a crowded place. At this time, there were only a few people coming and going around. Qi Yue had to lift the buns up and let him finish them bite by bit.

After finishing eating, Li Yi took a new handkerchief and wiped his lips gently for Qi Yue.

Qi Yue said: "It's getting late. Is Your Majesty going to leave with me?"

Li Yi said: "I will take you out to play, so of course I will have a lot of fun."

In fact, being able to come out is not always dull in the palace. Qi Yue is already a little happier than usual. But she rarely reveals her emotions.

Li Yi took Qi Yue to a restaurant. After all, the capital of Yan State is different from other places. Most people want to gain a foothold in the capital, they must have the ability to withstand the prices that are much more expensive in the capital than elsewhere.

This restaurant, called Tingyu Tower, is one of the largest restaurants in the capital. The prices of wine and food are several times higher than that of other places, so the exchanges are all high-ranking officials.

Li Yi said: "There is an auction this time. What do you like? Just call me brother and I will buy it for you."

Qi Yue held the fan in one hand and stuffed the gardenia to Li Yi. When she crossed the threshold, she lifted up her robe and walked in.

The boy at the door naturally noticed Li Yi, and he shouted inside: "Call the boss, Mr. Li is here--"

As he said that, the handsome little boy smiled: "Mr. Li, you have been in a long time and you have something good today. It is said that there is a beautiful woman from Jiangnan who is innocent and beautiful, and she is going to be taken out for auction."

Li Yi was stunned, and he quickly looked at Qi Yue.

Qi Yue had no expression, and Li Yi quickly explained: "I didn't know they would auction this. I didn't even come here, and I had never bought this before."

Qi Yue nodded: "Oh."

At this time, the boss in the store came out. Although he didn't know Li Yi's specific identity, he knew that he was a generous man and could not offend him. If he could make the restaurant so big in the capital, the boss also had a backstage, and the backstage was King Qi. But once, the boss saw Li Yi and the young master of the Prime Minister's family came over together, and even the young master of the Prime Minister's family was very respectful to Li Yi. At that time, the boss knew that Li Yi should be a member of the royal family.

The boss said: "Mr. Li, I haven't seen you for half a year. There is also an auction today, with many good things. Among them, the finale is a beautiful woman with a noble birth and her home was searched."

The boss knows that many high-ranking officials and rich people have many hobbies, and some like to collect beauties. This woman from Jiangnan is gentle and graceful, and must be placed on the finale. She will at least sell at a high price of tens of thousands of silver. Even for the sake of face, many people are scrambling to buy it.

Li Yi said: "I'm not interested in these."

While talking, he couldn't help but look at Qi Yue.

The boss then noticed the little boy who was slightly thin beside Li Yi. In the eyes of the boss, the boy was a little feminine, but his eyes were cold and had the same temperament as Li Yi. Although he was not as tall as an ordinary boy, he had a faint sense of scrutiny when looking at others.

Just looking at this outfit, the boss can guess that this young man is not a mortal, he should be Li Yi's junior.

The boss smiled and said, "Mr. Li, is this young master your junior or your brother?"

Li Yihan said in a voice: "What do you think?"

Li Yi's face was too cold and his aura was extremely imposing. The boss was knowledgeable and had many friends with noble people. He was a little scared. He smiled and said, "The villain is clumsy and can't guess it. Mr. Li, please come with the villain."

Li Yi leaned over and took away the fan from Qi Yue's hand, and said in a gentle tone: "I have always seen you pinch this fan and look handsome. The jade-like fan bone is heavy. After holding it for a long time, my hands will be sore. I will take it for you, and you will hold this bouquet of flowers."

The boss thought to himself, looking at his doting look, this young master should not be a peer brother of Mr. Li, but a junior.

But when I went up the stairs, Mr. Li was afraid that this thin young man would fall to him, so he held him carefully. He was so caring and considerate that he was definitely not an ordinary junior.

Could it be that this young master is Mr. Li’s biological son?

These nobles usually get married very early and have sons very early. In addition, they eat well and sleep well. Even if their sons are about to get married, they still look very young. This young master should be around thirty years old. If they get married at the age of fourteen, it is not uncommon to have such a big son...

The boss thought to himself, no wonder Mr. Li was angry just now, and he just looked down on his son and regarded him as his brother, which was really angry enough.

The boss took Li Yi to the private room at the end of the second floor. After entering, he watched Li Yi wipe the chair next to the table with his own hands and let the young man sit down. It was really impossible to tell that such a noble and dignified man was actually a son slave.

The boss said, "Does Mr. Li have any instructions? Two servants stood outside. If you need to serve, just give them instructions."

Li Yi sat opposite Qi Yue and said, "I just ate half a bun, are you tired of it? Do you want to eat some dessert and put your stomach on?"

Qi Yue nodded.

Li Yi ordered the boss again: "Let someone make a bowl of almond tea to deliver it."

The boss stepped out.

Li Yi said: "I heard that someone will auction a thousand-year-old heart-protecting jade today and negotiate with someone in advance. That person will take action at the auction, so he brought you here."

He pinched Qi Yue's hand: "I really don't know that there is a woman from Jiangnan who wants to sell herself, and she will never buy her. She hasn't bought it before, and she will never buy it in the future."

Qi Yue didn't speak in front of others because she was afraid that when she opened her mouth, others would recognize her identity as a woman. Only she and Li Yi were in the private room. Qi Yue then said: "Heart-protecting Jade? What kind of heart-protecting Jade?"

Although the climate is mild today, Li Yi can feel that her little hands are cold when he holds Qi Yue's hand.

Li Yi said: "It is an extremely precious piece of warm jade. The treasure of a princess in the previous dynasty was lost to the people after the war. I asked someone to inquire for a long time, and then I found out that this piece of heart-protecting jade actually appeared again."

Qi Yue said: "Your Majesty isn't afraid it's fake?"

"At least you have to buy it for a look." Li Yi pinched the tip of her nose, "I will try it if it is a little good for you. He dares to sell it to me and let me down, so I cut his head."

Qi Yue curled her lips and stopped talking.

In less than a quarter of an hour, several servants sent some snacks, fruits, and a cup of almond tea.

When Li Yi was about to enter Tingyu Tower, his subordinates naturally followed him. These snacks were delivered from the kitchen. Before they were brought, their subordinates naturally checked whether the people in the kitchen were suspicious. Despite this, Li Yi tasted them himself before Qi Yue's entrance.

The temperature is suitable and the taste is OK.

The auction has also begun.

Li Yi and Qi Yue's private rooms are in one of the best positions, with a layer of bead curtains covering them, so they can see the people below, but others can't see them. The door of the private rooms was knocked, and Li Yi said coldly: "Come in."

A man walked in. He didn't dare to see Qi Yue at all. He just knelt down on one knee and said to Li Yi: "Your Majesty, I have used some kung fu to discuss with others and let the heart-protecting jade be auctioned early. It should not be possible to wait half an hour."

In the box next door.

Two beauties with soft waists stood on the left and right. Qin Nanru drank the wine the beauty poured for him and smiled at Qi Yu: "Young Master Qi is generous, I have also seen it today. This jar of Taiqing Red Clouds really cost you a lot."

Qi Yu said: "The Fourth Prince is from an extraordinary background, so I naturally cannot treat it with ordinary qualities."

While speaking, Qi Yu pointed to the beauty on both sides of Qin Nanru: "This woman is called Xuanniang and has a sweet singing voice. This woman is called Xue Ji, and she is proficient in both piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. I heard that there is no one to serve the Fourth Prince, so these two women are given to His Highness."

Qin Nanru held the wine glass and slapped gently: "I have something to do with you. Mr. Qi should enjoy these two beauties by himself."

Qi Yu smiled and said, "Your Highness has a heart for you, but you have not married a concubine. Obviously, you are not destined to be together. The last one to auction tonight is a beauty from all over the country. I will take the beauty and give it to your highness?"

Qin Nanru was already a little unhappy when he saw Qi Yu keeping his mouth shut and just giving him some.

But he changed his mind and wondered if Qi Yu had discovered something.

Qi Yu did guess that Qin Nanru was moved by Qi Yue. Qi Yu also knew about Qi Yue’s affairs in Mingyu Pavilion. Later, Qi Yue gave him the lotus cup that Qin Nanru gave him, and he was even more convinced of this.

Therefore, Qi Yu had no favoritism towards Qin Nanru.

His cousin has now been granted a title, and Qin Nanru is still so bold and arrogant, so he is really shameless!

The first auction was the lotus cup given to Qi Yue by Qin Nanru, which was arranged by Qi Yu. The last auction of Jiangnan beauty was also arranged by Qi Yu, and the purpose was to give it to Qin Nanru, so that Qin Nanru could give up a certain idea.

When Qin Nanru saw the lotus cup, her face suddenly changed.

He obtained this lotus cup at a high price, with the purpose of conveying his affection to the Queen of Yan State, but-

How did this appear here?

Qin Nanru looked at Qi Yu and said, "This glass lotus cup is a treasure."

Qi Yu smiled and said, "That's true. I took out such a treasure first and sold it, and it was still sold from 1,000 taels... The organizer did not pay much attention to it, and maybe he didn't take it seriously at all."
