100 ways to trick a boy into going to sleep

Chapter 795 Begonia Spring

The two remained silent for several seconds, neither of them saying a word.

It's no exaggeration to say that Li Jie felt his brain wasn't working properly; otherwise, why would his brother's words be so incomprehensible?

Is it normal for him to hear the phrase "dozens of lovers"?

Outrageous!

"Which subordinate of your elder brother?" He had met most of his elder brother's retainers and advisors. Which unlucky fellow had run into this woman?

"Don't ask me that, just tell me how." It concerns a woman's reputation, so he couldn't tell outsiders. He trusted his younger brother's character, which was why he came here to discuss it with him.

"Brother shouldn't have consulted me." Seeing his elder brother's serious expression, Li Jie also looked troubled. After coming of age, he had followed his elder brother's example and stayed away from women, focusing all his attention on practicing martial arts. How could he know about such romantic matters?

Besides, he was just one of my elder brother's subordinates.

Why worry so much?

The two grew up together, and seeing Li Jie's expression, he could roughly guess what the other was thinking.

"Don't spread this around. If I hear any gossip outside, I will not let you off easily."

Although Sanhu was sincere to him, he was still aware of how Sanhu behaved in front of outsiders, so he had to deliberately give him a warning. Otherwise, he might have to question each of his subordinates one by one the next day.

Li Jie rubbed the cup in his hands and simply replied, "I understand."

"The Emperor's decree will be issued soon. If you are free tomorrow, come to my residence to meet your brother and sister-in-law."

"Ah."

Li Jie was not interested. Firstly, he did not believe the rumors about Madam Shen's appearance.

Secondly, he always felt that a woman from an ordinary family was not good enough for his elder brother.

Li Yin downed the tea in his cup in one gulp, stared at his silent younger brother for a few seconds, and a complex look flashed in his eyes.

Well then, since I'll be spending all my time with Huan'er from now on, and since Sanhu doesn't like her, I'll just see her less often in the future.

However, speaking of this...

Although Huan'er had many lovers, they were all in the past. For the rest of her life, she could only be by his side.

My own marriage is settled, but my younger brother's situation is still unresolved.

In recent years, due to the turbulent times, my fourth brother has had no close confidants to take care of him, which is my negligence as his elder brother.

"Do you have a woman you fancy?"

"No."

Li Jie had no interest in romance for the time being. Of course, he had thought about it in previous years, but although there were many beautiful people, he would at most glance at them a few more times, and then he would not have any further thoughts about them.

He wasn't exactly unruly, but he possessed an arrogance and pride that was typical of scions of prominent families, surpassing even that of others.

Therefore, if he were to marry, he would definitely choose a woman of unparalleled beauty.

Anyway, he didn't want the throne. His elder brother's wife needed to be the empress, so he could just choose the one he liked.

"Does he/she possess a pleasing appearance or virtuous character?"

Li Jie hadn't thought about it carefully before, but with his elder brother's prompting, he lowered his head and pondered for a moment before speaking softly: "My heart is captivated by her willow-like waist, flower-like face, voice like a nightingale, and skin as white as snow. Her physical beauty is stunning, but her bone structure is timeless and enduring."

After finishing speaking, Li Jie had a smile on his face.

But the smile on Li Yin's face vanished...

"Why are you so serious, brother?" "It's hot, it's alright."

Li Jie glanced at him in surprise. The moonlight was cool tonight, and he had put on an outer garment when he came out.

Where does this talk of heat come from?

Fine, if my brother says it's hot, then it's hot.

"Brother, shall I go see my sister-in-law after I finish my morning audience tomorrow?"

"no need!"

"Why?"
