The Great Wei Music Bureau

Last time we talked about Li Yi’s plan to leave Qing’an and go to Shangjing City. Let’s take a look at how things will develop next.

The next day, Xiao Ye gave the altered underwear to Bailing, who was very satisfied after wearing it. The maid came and asked Sister Ruyun to invite her, so Bailing came to the elegant room and sat opposite Liu Ruyun to drink tea.

After chatting for a while, Ruyun couldn't help asking, "Did you know that Li Yi was leaving?" This sentence was like a bolt from the blue to Bailing. She was surprised and said, "What, he's leaving! Where is he going? How did you know, sister?"

Ruyun replied, "You know Yuwen Ye came yesterday, right? I think he felt that Xiaoye's troubles were solved, so he decided to leave. He was probably going to Shangjing City, and he asked me to borrow money for the trip. Do you think I should lend it to him?"

Bailing remained silent, and Ruyun spoke directly as always, "You don't want him to leave?"

Bai Ling, whose thoughts were exposed, said in panic, "Sister, what are you talking about? He went to the capital to have a good future. He must have many considerations for this."

"Then you just blame him for not considering you?" Ruyun's words made Bailing feel uncomfortable. Bailing frowned and asked, "Why did he consider me?"

"Hey, did you have a fight? Then you better hurry up and find a way to make him apologize to you. Don't let the time pass and he's gone while you're still waiting for him to coax you!"

"Sister, do you know when he will leave?"

"I guess he's waiting for the result of Xiao Ye's case. It hasn't been tried yet. He'll leave once there's a notice or news about the sentence for Mr. Xu and Wang Hu. As long as the result is satisfactory, he'll probably leave."

Bailing nodded, and Ruyun continued, "If time is not enough, I can help you delay him for a few days, and let him wait until Xiaoye's store opens before leaving. It can be considered a complete beginning and an end. It was Xiaoye who led him into Liumoxuan, and now he is leaving and sending Xiaoye in. Don't you think this is fate? How interesting. This may be what they call fate playing tricks on people."

Ruyun said while drinking tea: "I asked him, he was afraid that I would kill him at first, so he didn't dare to have any thoughts about you."

Bai Ling asked anxiously, "What happened next?" "Later I told him I didn't care about you two anymore."

"How did he say?"

"That bastard said I looked like an old woman!"

Bailing couldn't hold back her laughter, and Ruyun said unhappily, "Ahaha, you still dare to laugh at me, you little bitch, you've had enough of living, haven't you?"

After the two of them joked around for a while, Bai Ling wiped the tears from her eyes and asked, "Sister Ruyun, didn't you kill him on the spot?"

"As soon as I raised my hand, the little bastard ran back to the house. He ran faster than a rabbit!"

Bai Ling held her belly and laughed, "It seems that he is really familiar with my sister. He dares to make such a joke."

"Yes, we've gotten to know each other well, and it's been less than a month, but I'm leaving right after we've gotten to know each other well. I'm really reluctant to let him go. Such an interesting guy. Bailing, if you really like him, you'd better hurry up! With his talent and wisdom, plus his shameless spirit, he can make a name for himself even in Shangjing. Don't let him find a new love by then, or he will look down on you."

Bai Ling knew that Sister Ruyun was a person who had seen the world and what she said must make sense, so she made up her mind. That day, the government's verdict came down. In addition to hiring a killer, Mr. Xu also did a lot of bad things. He was eventually sentenced to confiscation of his property and exile thousands of miles away; Wang Hu and his gang were guilty of many crimes and were punished with 100 strokes of the cane and exiled to the northern border.

This result made Xiao Ye and Li Yi very satisfied. After getting the news, she came to thank Li Yi specially and wanted to invite her benefactor to dinner. Li Yi readily agreed and forced the venue to be set at Liumoxuan.

Xiao Ye Zi was originally against it, as she was able to escape punishment this time thanks to the people in Liu Mo Xuan, and now it was unreasonable for her to have a meal at someone else's place. But when she learned that this meal was both a celebration and a farewell, she could not object anymore.

Everyone started the feast with laughter. Ruyun, as the big sister, arranged for everyone to drink. Everyone ate and drank, talked and laughed. The girls also sang and danced. The banquet was very lively and the atmosphere was very joyful.

Chen Liang asked, "Little friend Li, everyone has poems, songs and dances to liven up the atmosphere, but you are the only one who is just talking and laughing. Isn't that inappropriate?"

Li Yi said, "Master Chen, I couldn't think of any good poems at the moment, so I won't embarrass myself." Fang Zhuo added, "You are being modest again, aren't you afraid that your poems are too good and will embarrass us?"

Li Yi smiled and said, "This meal can be considered as a farewell for me. You should write poems for me, but it doesn't make sense for me to write poems for myself!"

Ruyun said: "Li Yi is right! It is true that we should give you the poem, but Li Yi, we have already expressed our gratitude, so you should give us a gift in return, right?"

Li Yi shook his head and said, "It seems that there is no way to avoid it?" Bai Ling smiled and said, "Of course, we have sung and danced, we can either write poems or sing songs, but you are not allowed to cheat!"

Li Yi searched for the poem in the background of his brain, then smiled and said, "Okay, since Sister Ruyun and Bailing have said so, then I will express my opinion." Li Yi stood up and walked around the table, reciting:

"Green mountains stretch across the northern suburbs, white water flows around the eastern city.

Say goodbye in here, then fight in the lonely and long way.

Fuyun wandering, the old love of the setting sun.

He waved goodbye and left, the sound of horses neighing.

Before Li Yi had finished absorbing the talent, Chen Liang was already clapping his hands and exclaiming: "What a good poem! What a good poem!"

Everyone rolled their eyes at Chen Liang, while Li Yi walked over to the zither, stretched out his hand to signal Hua Yu, who was playing the zither, to give up her seat. He sat down in front of the zither and said with a smile, "I'll play another song, called "A Song of Lovesickness." Li Yi went through the score in his mind, strummed the strings with one hand, and began to play and sing:

This world is filled with smoke from cooking and romance

Most infatuated people are greedy for love and hate. Both love and hatred are beautiful.

Makes you feel miserable and makes you act crazy while drunk

One day I will be reborn and I will understand until I laugh and cry

I want to ask the sky how long this life is

I am afraid that the past days are full of sufferings, so I ask for a cup of lovesickness

If this time is still as persistent as before

If I'm obsessed with you, then I might be sentimental

A cup of muddy wine, no sadness or joy for the rest of my life

Why fear love, hate, separation, and separation? I ride my horse all the way to consider

A song of longing for the river and the mountains

Walking under the oil umbrella, I fell into a dream, but it seemed like yesterday

After the song was over, Li Yi began to absorb the purple air. While everyone was praising him, Liu Ruyun felt something different in the song. She felt the Confucian and Taoist method of exhortation, and secretly sighed in her heart, so that's how it is.

Liu Ruyun carefully observed Li Yi's every move and determined that this was his unconscious behavior. The reason why Li Yi's songs could resonate with the listeners was precisely because of his unconscious behavior.

As a practitioner of both Confucianism and martial arts, Liu Ruyun knew what this meant, which was that Li Yi possessed a spiritual power far beyond that of ordinary people, which was now reflected in his infectious power of empathy. In the future, once Li Yi reached the level of a fourth-grade Confucian or Taoist scholar, his abilities would definitely be extraordinary.

At the banquet, Bailing, Huayu, and Ruolan were arguing for Li Yi to write down the music score. Liu Ruyun interrupted them and said, "Okay, stop arguing, you three. Let him write it after we finish eating. He can't take this song away! By the way, Li Yi, I have something else to talk to you about later."

After Liu Ruyun spoke, the three girls stopped making noise. When the banquet was over, Li Yi followed Ruyun to the private room on the third floor.

The two sat opposite each other, and Ruyun asked, "Have you figured out how to open up the situation when you go to the capital?"

Li Yi shook his head and said, "I have no idea."

"Well, since you don't know how to do it, why don't you do something for me first?"

Li Yi was not stupid. He knew that what Ruyun asked him to do was not an easy task. So he did not agree directly. Instead, he asked, "What does Sister Ruyun want me to do?"

Ruyun said: "This matter is a bit difficult to handle. It doesn't matter if you can't do it, as long as you try your best. You know that Nangong Qi's mother and I are from the same school and we are like sisters. When my sister died, she asked me to take care of the two children she left behind.

Nangong Qi seems to be doing well now and doesn't need much help, but his sister, Nangong Xue, is in some trouble now."

Li Yi looked up at Ruyun and asked, "Family marriage?"

Ruyun smiled and said, "It's straightforward to talk to smart people, but it's not as simple as a marriage."

"Family marriage is so simple? Does that mean you have to marry into the royal family?"

Ruyun raised her lips, and Li Yi was surprised and said, "She really married into the royal family? Sister Ruyun, if you want to kill me, just do it directly. Why do you have to do this?"

"It's not what you think, and I'm not asking you to stop Xue'er from marrying into the palace."

"what is that?"

"Take Xue'er for example. Her situation is very special. She was born with a sword in her body and was sent to the Taoist Tianzong to practice the Merciless Sword since she was young. The Merciless Sword is very powerful and is the most superb swordsmanship of the Tianzong. The Taoist method of the Tianzong is to forget about emotions, to preserve the principles of heaven and eliminate human desires. Only those who can suppress their seven emotions and six desires can achieve the Tao. The Merciless Sword is a swordsmanship derived from the Supreme Forgetfulness of Emotions. It is definitely brilliant, but the disadvantage is..."

Li Yi interrupted, "The problem is that the emotional intelligence is not developed? That's just right. The family wants Nangong Xue to arrange a marriage, and she can go, saving trouble."

Liu Ruyun slammed the table and said, "How can that be! That bastard Nangong Ting wants to exchange Xue'er's happiness for the future of his Nangong family! At least he should ask Xue'er if she is willing."

Li Yi nodded and said, "Yes, Sister Ruyun is right. We should ask Nangong Xue what she thinks. But now it seems that Nangong Xue has no ideas, so this problem is solved! Don't worry about it."

"Li Yi, stop talking nonsense! If you have no idea, does that mean you are willing?" "Then what does Sister Ruyun want?" "Don't you understand? It's not what I want, but what Xue'er wants!" "I don't understand this, please explain it to me, sister."

"I want you to help her open her mind! And then tell me what she thinks! If she doesn't want to marry into the royal family, I will go to the capital city myself and kill that bastard Nangong Ting with one sword! Then I will take Xue'er and run away."

"What if she is willing?"

"Then let her do it, of course."

"Do you really have to go through all this trouble?"

Ruyun nodded, while Li Yi shook his head and said, "Kai Qingzhi, how can I do this?"

Ruyun said seriously, "Although Xue'er has practiced the ruthless sword since she was a child, it doesn't mean that she is completely ignorant of the ways of the world. Instead, she takes these things lightly. So, as long as you use your singing to move her little by little, help her awaken the emotions that have been suppressed in her heart, and then help me get to the bottom of it."

Li Yi raised his hands and said, "Sister Ruyun, you really think highly of me! I really don't have that ability! Supreme Forgetfulness, sister, it sounds very mysterious. Can a few poems and a few songs break the Taoist Tianzong's Supreme Forgetfulness? I'm afraid you have hypochondria."

"No, others definitely can't do it, but I think you can! You have talent in this area! As long as you can sing to Xue'er face to face! I think you can give it a try!"

Li Yi rolled his eyes at her and said, "Nangong Xue? A rich lady, I sing to her face to face? Sister Ruyun, what are you thinking? There's no chance of this happening!"

"Oh, you can ask Nangong Qi to help arrange it! Just give it a try, I'm not forcing you to do it, just do your best!"

Li Yi sighed and said, "Okay, I'll try my best. Whether it succeeds or not depends on fate!"

"It's done! It's done! It will definitely work! I'm rooting for you! By the way, Li Yi! Xue'er is beautiful, so don't have any bad thoughts! I can ignore Bailing if she has chosen you, but I definitely can't ignore Xue'er!"
