Chapter 417 Bad News
The days before the leader came back were very idle. Zhao Yushu would help when he was busy and go shopping when he was free. Then he would watch Yang looking for traces of the black robe everywhere like a headless fly.
That's right. Zhao Yushu had no intention of telling him that he was the man in black who had fought with him. He just reminded him tactfully that the man in black might have run away long ago. However, seeing the other party's increasingly suspicious eyes, Zhao Yushu just laughed it off and went to eat, drink and have fun.
The news from Jiangzhou arrived a few days ago. According to the leader's schedule, he will enter the city at noon tomorrow.
And today, Zhao Yushu is going to the warehouse again to see if the academy has replied.
I have no confidence at all now. Although the leader's cultivation is not the best in the world, the oppression he brings to me is stronger than Yan Hui's.
After coming out of the inn, Zhao Yushu breathed a sigh of relief. He finally received the reply on the last day.
The letter mentioned a lot of things about the academy. For example, when the old man arrived at the Tang Sect, the Tang Sect decisively distanced itself from the matter, saying it was the sect leader's personal behavior; when Meng Laosi arrived in Lingnan, the head of the Lingnan Yao Family was tough for once, and called on the family's cultivators and mortals to attack together, as if he thought that if everyone rushed forward, Meng Laosi alone might not be able to defeat the entire Yao family. The embarrassing result was that except for himself and two or three confidants, everyone else was collectively deaf. Then Meng Laosi decisively killed several people including Grandma Flying Mouse. The new head of the Yao Family suppressed the corners of his mouth that he could not hold back, and with tears and snot, he took out a bunch of apologies and sent Meng Laosi away.
Zhao Yushu felt a little emotional. Meng Laosi was still the most evil one.
As for the wolf girl who went to Liao, Lao Wei didn't know what she did specifically, and he couldn't control her either...
What surprised Zhao Yushu the most was his second senior sister A Li. This former Tang princess actually went directly to the Western Regions. It seemed that she picked up someone from Chang'an to go with her. No one knew what she was going to do.
His two younger brothers and one younger sister still showed no signs of enlightenment, but there was nothing he could do about it. The rate of enlightenment among cultivators was terribly low. He couldn't just enjoy great success just because he was the protagonist.
However, regarding the matter of the leader, I don't know whether Wei Youze was afraid that the letter would be hijacked or he really didn't know how to deal with it, but he only had one sentence to say: don't turn hostile unless it is absolutely necessary.
Zhao Yushu frowned, which meant that Wei You thought there was a possibility that he would fall out with the leader.
Why don't you just speak out your guess, you bastard!
What if I can’t hold it back and get angry? Can you come and save me, boss?
After reading the letter from the academy, Zhao Yushu found another letter in the envelope. He thought it was from Mr. Ge or his brothers and sisters, but it turned out to be from Li Tong.
Li Tong sent a very important message.
Li Jian finally got it.
After coming to his senses, Li Jian seemed to feel that he did not need Li Tong's support so he drove Li Tong out of the palace with a tactful but unquestionable order and told her to stay in Prince Fu's mansion by herself, telling her not to go out unless it was necessary as it was chaotic outside.
However, Li Tong has never been an easy person. She didn't know how to get in touch with Brother Wei. Wei You handed over an invitation letter, and Li Tong moved into the academy with great confidence.
Li Tong's letter was not long. It just pointed out that there might be something wrong with Li Jian and asked Zhao Yushu to be careful.
Haha, there is something wrong with the emperor of Dongdu. He told me to be careful in Yuezhou. But why should I be careful? Is he going to sell me out?
Zhao Yushu felt a little unhappy after crumpling up the letter. Back then in Xiangzhou, Wei Laosan's words that he didn't need to worry about the inner scene made Lao Zhao burst with confidence, and he directly fought against the Ninth Heaven.
Although it hasn’t just passed.
However, this time, the third brother told him very carefully that he should be timid if he should be, and should not turn hostile if he could avoid it. What did this mean? It meant that the academy could not spare any manpower to escort him for the time being, and he really had to use a mere sixth level of heaven to unveil the mask of a god-like figure that even the academy was afraid of in their base camp!
If you can’t do it, just wait for death. Goodbye!
Old Zhao returned to the clinic angrily, rubbed his face, put on a smiling face, pushed the door open and walked in.
Yang He was actually in the clinic.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Yang He stood up, waved his hand, and motioned Zhao Yushu to go out and talk.
"What's so mysterious? Are you going to apostatize?"
Yang He felt a buzzing sound in his head, his fingers trembled unconsciously and he wanted to draw his sword. How could this guy make people want to chop him just by opening his mouth?
"Don't talk nonsense, let's get down to business."
"You say it, you say it."
"The leader will come into the city tomorrow, and I will go to the city gate to greet him."
"Oh, you are the prince, it is only right for you to greet him, and I think it is more appropriate to go ten miles out of the city to greet him."
Yang He glared at him and said, "We in the Red Lotus Sect don't care about these things."
"You say it, you say it."
"I want you to come with me."
Zhao Yushu instinctively took a step back: "Maybe I didn't show it clearly and you didn't notice it. In fact, Zhu Huo should understand better. Um, Lan Ling and I, um, have a good relationship."
Yang He's brows were twisted into a "川" shape: "Why are you saying this suddenly?"
"Uh, I'm afraid of hurting your self-esteem. Well, I like women..."
The weather was nice, the sun was shining, and the early winter air was fresh.
Yang He took several deep breaths before he recovered. Then he was surprised to find that his long sword was already half unsheathed.
"Can you hear me out?"
"You say it, you say it."
"I like women, too."
"Oh, then what do you want me to do?"
"I just feel that these recent events have a lot to do with you, and you've helped a lot, so it's reasonable that you should have a place in the team that welcomes the leader."
Zhao Yushu spread his hands indifferently: "It's a small matter, as long as I don't have to pay. It's just a matter of standing for a while. Do you need me to take a shower and change clothes to look more dignified?"
"That's right. I want to go too. There's a bathhouse not far away. Do you want to come with me?"
Zhao Yushu quickly returned to the clinic, and his voice came from afar: "No thanks, I still like to wash myself."
Near noon the next day, Zhao Yushu squatted outside the East City Gate with his hands in his sleeves, breathing out white steam in the cold wind.
"It's said that we'll arrive at noon on time. If it's really that punctual, why are we here so early? We've been waiting for an hour."
"Etiquette."
"Isn't that not important?"
Zhao Yushu looked at the city gate and saw a sea of black. No, it was red. All the bigwigs in the city had arrived.
"At least we don't have to travel ten miles to meet them."
Zhao Yushu snorted, and suddenly his nose twitched: "I just felt there was a smell, it must be from you."
Yang He blushed slightly, looking straight ahead: "Isn't it normal to spray some floral dew after taking a bath?"
Zhao Yushu narrowed his eyes and said, "It's hard to find this little flower dew in the middle of winter. Why do I feel like something's wrong with you?"
Yang He smiled slightly: "Yesterday I said I like women too."
"Ang, what's wrong?"
"Do you know who the woman I like is?"
Zhao Yushu looked at Yang He's smug smile and suddenly realized something. Then his eyes slowly widened and he looked into the distance with Yang He's gaze which gradually became warm yet soft.
A group of people in red riding on chestnut horses came slowly.
