The Great Wei Music Bureau

Chapter 61: Jiao Fangsi has a story

Last time, we talked about a strange thing that Li Yi heard in Younvyuan. Someone gave birth to a child in Jiaofangsi. This kind of thing is equivalent to a nuclear bomb attack for Jiaofangsi. Accidentally killing a few women is not a big deal. In the Jiaofangsi of Wei Dynasty, a woman gave birth in Younvyuan, where prisoners were detained and trained. And it was a son. This is a very interesting thing! So what is going on? Let's take a look together.

Upon hearing this, Li Yi stepped into the lobby and said with a smile, "Oh, someone in Younvyuan gave birth to a child. This is quite interesting. Please tell me in detail, sir."

The eunuch who mentioned this matter just now looked at Li Yi and said coldly: "Who are you? How dare you ask about Jiao Fangsi's affairs? I advise you to ask less, so that you can live longer."

Upon hearing this, Li Yi said seriously, "You really mean it for my own good. How about this, I'll ask you a question. I just heard from Chief Tang that you two killed one person and injured two others. Who killed them?"

When the eunuch saw that Lord Tang didn't say anything, he immediately realized that I was not an ordinary person, and said in a trembling voice: "I didn't beat them to death, I just broke the legs of those three people."

When the other eunuch heard his companion tell the truth, he immediately panicked and said quickly: "I just lost my grip for a moment. I just wanted to break another arm. I never thought that she didn't use her hands to block it but bumped into me directly. That's why I accidentally hit her to death."

Li Yi asked again: "Where is the body?"

"Buried!"

"Oh, it seems this isn't the first time I've accidentally killed someone!"

The eunuch who answered was stunned. Li Yi asked again: "How did you get away with killing people in the past?"

Under the pressure of Li Yi's righteous spirit, the eunuch had no choice but to say, "If someone is beaten to death and the body is handled properly, you can report that he died of a sudden illness or committed suicide. This kind of thing is very common in Jiaofangsi."

Li Yi asked coldly: "How many people did you kill by accident?"

The man trembled and said, "Three." Li Yi looked at the other eunuch and said, "Are you willing to tell the truth now?" He was so scared that he kowtowed to the ground and said, "My lord, I have never killed anyone, I really have never killed anyone!"

Li Yi asked with a smile: "What bad things have you done?" He knelt down for a long time and whispered: "I just did some dirty things with a few women. Sir, you know that I am a rootless person. It's not possible for this couple to cause any trouble. Sir, please let me go."

Li Yi put away his righteous spirit, patted the two on the shoulders and said with a smile: "It's okay. I heard that your godfather is Chief Steward Zhou, but Chief Steward Zhou is always guarding His Majesty, and I happen to be familiar with him. Then I will go and ask Chief Steward Zhou what to do in this situation, whether to bring him back to the palace for disposal or hand him over to the Ministry of Rites for disposal."

When the two eunuchs heard this, they were so frightened that they hugged Li Yi's thighs and begged for mercy: "Sir, please don't tell godfather. If godfather knew, he would skin us alive!" Li Yi used his Vajra Power to knock the two of them away. They fell to the ground with shock on their faces.

Li Yi wanted to slap the two men to death, but he held back because he knew that there were evil people in the world and bad people that could not be killed and eliminated. Although killing them directly would be satisfying for a while, there would be too many troubles later. Moreover, these two men were the adopted sons of Manager Zhou, and there might be other calculations behind them. He took a deep breath and saluted to Manager Tang, saying, "Manager Tang, what do you think of how to deal with these two?"

Tang An said coldly, "Let's wait for the decision of the Minister. Come on, put them in the solitary confinement room first, and I will deal with them after I make a request to the Minister." Then several eunuchs dragged the two away. Tang An bowed to Li Yi and said, "Thank you, Li Changshi, for your help. Otherwise, I would have been caught by these two bastards."

Li Yi smiled and said, "It's just a convenience. You don't have to take it to heart, Mr. Tang. But what they just said about a girl in Younvyuan giving birth to a child, is this true?"

Tang An knew that he couldn't avoid this matter, so he signaled Li Yi to let him go for a moment to talk. The two of them came to a quiet room, and Tang An whispered, "Please keep this a secret, Li Changshi. This is related to Mr. Tao's plan, and this is all I can say."

Li Yi looked at Tang An and asked, "How old is the child now?"

Tang An stretched out his hand to indicate his age. Li Yi then asked, "Keeping him in the Ghost Girl Garden?" Tang An shook his head and said, "Of course he won't be kept here. As for where he is, I don't know." "If those two eunuchs are not silenced, will they go out and spread rumors?"

Tang An looked at Li Yi and shook his head, "They are also part of the plan."

Li Yi was very glad that he did not act impulsively. If he had really killed the two men at that time, it would have ruined Old Silver Coin's plan. But Li Yi suddenly found something wrong. Since everything was planned, why did he start the action today? He always felt that he was being plotted against by Old Silver Coin again, but he didn't know what he was plotting against. Li Yi had no idea for a moment and had to give up. He asked, "Master Tang, have you chosen the person I want to find?"

Tang An made a gesture to invite them in, and the two of them came to the main hall. Tang An clapped his hands, and four eunuchs led a dozen foreign women in. The leading eunuch said in a loud voice: "Everyone, stand up and pay your respects to Lord Li." A dozen people stood in a row, wearing the same clothes, and then bowed together. Li Yi suddenly felt like he was participating in a nightclub election. He pinched his brows and cleared this dirty thought from his mind.

Li Yi glanced at the women standing in the hall one by one, then shook his head and sighed, "Change a group." Then he coughed. He waved away the damn nightclub vision again and said, "No more? Just a few foreign captives?"

The leading eunuch looked at Tang An, who walked up to Li Yi and said, "Empress Li, these are the only foreign women we have trained."

Li Yi said, "Master Tang, I'm afraid these won't work. Can you take me to see the ones that haven't been trained yet?"

Tang An felt a little embarrassed and said, "I'm afraid it will offend Li Changshi's eyes, so I'd better not go."

Li Yi said, "It's okay. I'm mentally prepared. It's just hell on earth with all kinds of torture instruments. I can handle it. Take me to see it. I have to find a suitable candidate."

Tang An nodded helplessly and took Li Yi to the backyard. Passing through the houses, Li Yi saw the darkest place in Jiaofangsi. Looking at the eunuchs and maids holding whips and looking ferocious, they did not treat these captives as human beings at all. They were even worse than animals.

Li Yi walked through the crowd. Although he was in agony, he controlled his emotions and finally saw the person he was looking for by a pond for washing clothes. She was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl from the Western Regions. From today's perspective, she had a typical Reba style, with big eyes, a high nose bridge, a small mouth, and fair skin unlike that of the yellow people.

Li Yi stepped forward and bowed, asking, "Little sister, what is your name?"

Xiao Reba glanced at Li Yi and ignored him but continued to wash clothes. Li Yi thought she didn't understand Chinese, so he walked to the nanny beside her and asked, "Doesn't she understand what we say?"

The nanny holding the whip bowed to Li Yi and said, "My lord, this girl may be itching for trouble. Let's make her talk to you properly right away." Then she picked up the whip and walked towards Xiao Reba. When the latter saw the nanny coming, she immediately stood up and bowed, saying, "Mammy, please talk to me properly. Don't use force."

The maid said angrily, "Oh, you can speak now. I thought you were dumb! Didn't you hear the question this gentleman asked you? If you don't want to die, answer me right away."

Xiao Reba looked at Li Yi, who bowed and asked, "Excuse me, what's your name, little sister?"

Xiao Reba asked back: "Are you asking about the name here or the name in your hometown?"

Li Yi smiled and said, "What's your name here?"

Xiao Reba said: "Yuehua."

Li Yi: "What's your name in your hometown?"

Yuehua: "Mai Nur."

Li Yi: "Does it mean Yuehua?"

Yuehua: "Almost. It means moonlight."

Li Yi: "Do you want to go home?"

Yuehua: “I don’t want to.”

Li Yi: "Why? Don't you miss home? Don't you miss your family?"

Yuehua: "Home? Family? They are long gone. They were all killed by your Wei soldiers."

Li Yi: "Oh, you want revenge?"

Yuehua: "Do you think it will be useful?"

Li Yi: "Then don't think about it anymore? I don't think you are the kind of person who will let go of hatred easily."

Yuehua: "Oh, how can I respond to you? I am willing to serve you like a cow or a horse, and wait on you until I die?"

Li Yi: "Just tell the truth."

Yuehua looked around and sneered, "Here? Tell the truth?"

Li Yi pointed to the girl beside him. Tang An understood and gestured to the eunuch, who quickly came to Li Yi and saluted, saying, "What do you want, Lord Li?"

Li Yi said: "Untie her shackles and take her to a quiet room to wait for me." After a while, Li Yi and Yuehua came to a quiet room. The eunuch untied her shackles, then left the room and closed the door.

Yuehua looked at Li Yi and asked, "You are quite courageous. You actually dare to talk to me alone here."

Li Yi smiled and said, "If something happens to me, do you think you can walk out of this room alive?"

Yuehua smiled and said, "So that's how it is. So what exactly do you want to do?"

Li Yi sat down, picked up the teacup, took a sip and asked, "What do you want? Say something practical, like freedom, going home, or gold and silver."

Yuehua thought for a moment and said, "Can't we have both?"

Li Yi smiled and said, "Sure, but if you want both, I'll give you a discount."

Yuehua said: "Tell me what you want first."

"I want you to perform a dance at the Queen Mother's birthday party. If you do this, I can give you freedom and send you home."

Yuehua sneered, "Go home? Didn't I tell you that all my relatives are dead, all died in the war, and my homeland was destroyed by you. There is no home for me on the grassland anymore."

Li Yi nodded and said, "Then you don't have anything you want?"

Yuehua sneered: "I don't want anything now, so don't even think about getting anything from me!"

Li Yi gathered up his righteous spirit and asked, "Then why are you still living in this world? Is it because you are afraid of death, or for revenge?"

Yuehua felt the pressure brought by the righteousness, but she was not afraid. She said calmly: "Revenge? It was the Dugu family's Zhenbei Army that killed my family. Can I kill them all? Can I kill everyone in the Wei Dynasty? Revenge is impossible. The reason why I am still alive in this world is because I promised my father that I would not commit suicide. Otherwise, I would have gone to heaven to find him long ago."

Li Yi smiled and said, "So you have made an oath. Since you keep your promise, it will be easy. From today on, you will follow me and I will take you for a walk outside." Yuehua sneered, "Why do you think I will listen to you? Why do you believe that I will not kill you and then run away?"

Li Yi casually threw a dagger to her and said with a smile: "Come, try to kill me now."

Yuehua picked up the dagger and said with a smile: "I can't live if I kill you! Do you want me to break my oath?"

Li Yi walked forward, grabbed Yuehua's hand holding the dagger and stabbed it hard into his chest. No blood was seen, but it was as if the dagger had stabbed a piece of steel plate.

Yuehua laughed and said, "So you're relying on your iron body. Humph, although I can't kill you, I won't serve you either."

Li Yi said sternly: "Well, let's both take a step back. Just follow me and you don't have to serve me. And you just have to not run away."

Yuehua looked at Li Yi warily and asked, "What is your intention in doing this?"

Li Yi smiled and said, "You can think that I am coveting your beauty."
