C466 A Toad will Eat Swan Meat

After everyone answered, another woman walked out and said slowly, "If you want to please a girl, you shouldn't come to a brothel."

Everyone shut their mouths because of her words. No one said she was right, and no one dared to say she was wrong. After a while, the woman continued, "All women want men to put their hearts on themselves, and not go out to have sex. It's great to be by her side when you have time, even if you have nothing to say to her. "

"Good! Well said!" Lingsu was the first to get up. He clapped his hands and gave all the remaining banknotes on the table to her.

Lyi Xuanzhi also wanted to say good for her, but when he saw her take the banknotes without hesitation, he turned around and left. So he suppressed this impulse. Wasn't it all for the sake of winning the lottery?

He dispersed the crowd. The two of them had gained quite a lot from coming here. At least they knew what kind of man a woman liked. Most of them liked handsome, considerate, and gentle men.

They had all of these!

Lingsu cupped his fists at Lyi Xuanzhi and said, "Brother Li, I can only accompany you until now. I still have to return to the prefecture. I will make an appointment with you in a few days' time. I wish Brother Li good luck with the beauty you have brought back."

He was even more anxious than Lyi Xuanzhi. He wanted to return to the prefecture, but Yici was still there.

Lyi Xuanzhi watched him leave with his eyes wide open. He could tell that he was in a hurry, so he didn't stop him and prepared to follow him back to the Prefecture.

However, he was stopped by the silent lotus. "Your Highness, please stop!"

Lyi Xuanzhi turned around and looked at her coldly, but he did not say anything.

Lotus was used to seeing him like this, so she cut to the chase. "Your Royal Highness, is Haiyang back? You followed Haiyang to the Moon Abyss two years ago. After you came back this time, I have not seen her. Is she alright?"

The reason why Lotus didn't leave was because she wanted to ask Lyi Xuanzhi personally. She had heard a lot about Mu Haiyang, but she didn't know which ones were real and which ones were fake.

She knew that Mu Haiyang was Imperial Consort but Imperial Consort died two years ago. And after such a long time, Mu Haiyang also didn't come to find her. She was afraid that this news was true.

That was why she left Lyi Xuanzhi behind to ask about the truth.

"Who is Haiyang?"

When Lyi Xuanzhi heard the name again, he could not help but frown.

"Your Royal Highness, you do not know Haiyang?" Lotus asked in disbelief.

"I don't know her!" Yin Luo left Lotus' room.

She fell to the ground in an instant, unable to withstand such a blow. It was unknown whether Lyi Xuanzhi had a problem or Mu Haiyang had a problem. She could only find out more. But she was just a prostitute...

Lotus suddenly remembered that this was a brothel. It was a famous brothel in the Imperial City, and there were many descendants of officials. She could find out a lot of things just by asking a little. After she decided, she would go and find out more about the Imperial Court, especially Lyi Xuanzhi.

Lyi Xuanzhi left the Auspicious Court and returned to the Imperial Residence. It was already late at night. He did not enter through the main entrance, but jumped into the Imperial Residence through the wall.

He thought about the results of his trip to the Auspicious Court. He returned to his room in peace and waited for Yici to return by herself tomorrow.

In the Great General's Residence.

There were not many maids and servants in the residence, so it was very quiet.

It was only a month, but the Anhe didn't snow, and the temperature wasn't low either. Gradually, there was warmth. This warmth came from Lingsu's heart.

It had been a long time since he had seen Yici like this and talked to her.

Yici gently pushed open the door to Yici's room and woke up from her dream. She muttered, "Senior brother, you are back..."

"Ci..." Lingsu heard her and smiled. He went forward and sat in front of her bed. He patted his thigh and motioned for her to lie on his lap.

"Ci, I miss you so much."

"You're lying! Senior Brother clearly saw me at Yue Yuan, but he didn't tell me. Hmph... "

"You even know? It's not your fault senior brother. Senior brother is also doing things for Lyi Jiazhi and did not deliberately ignore Ci. I can't wait for Yici to look at me a few more times but Ci actually did not even look at me."

...

The two of them had been catching up on old times for the entire night. In the end, with the excuse that Yici was sleepy, Lingsu accompanied her to sleep.

He understood Yici's feelings for him. She did not love him, but she also did not want to lose him. She only thought that he was her senior brother and could tolerate her small temper and willfulness, but she definitely did not want to marry him.

"That senior brother, I... I cannot marry you." Yici suddenly quietened down and said.

After a long time, when Yici had fallen asleep, Lingsu said sadly, "I know... I already know."

After he finished speaking, he hugged Yici tightly. There was pain and loneliness in his eyes.

He had long understood that when Lyi Xuanzhi appeared, whether she was Mu Haiyang or Yici, she was not his. She was Lyi Xuanzhi's. Unless Lyi Xuanzhi did not appear for the rest of his life, or Yici lost her memory again.

But he still could not bear to let go.

"I clearly knew you first, but why are you not mine..."

The next day.

As usual, Yici was used to waking up beside Lingsu. She did not feel that it was inappropriate at all. Similarly, Lingsu had already prepared breakfast. He carried it in and said with a smile, "Ci, you go wash up first. I will hold your hair for you. I will take you to the city for a stroll during these few days."

When Yici heard that she could go for a spin, she immediately jumped up from the bed and happily changed her clothes. After breakfast, Lingsu tied her hair up in a bun.

Actually, there was another reason why she wanted to go for a spin. Finally, she could bring Lingsu out to show off. She wanted to see if those women would still dare to say that she was a toad wanting to eat swan meat.

So what if I ate it? I, a toad, will definitely eat this swan meat...

Lingsu was dressed in a simple and elegant long robe, with a silk belt wrapped around his waist. His hair was slightly scattered, and his face had a clear outline. He had a pair of bright and piercing eyes. If one looked at him a few more times, he would definitely fall for it.

If it was really matched with Yici, a young lady who was not devastatingly beautiful, it would make many people envious.

"Great General..." "Great General! Great General!"

Before they left the residence, a group of people greeted him. Moreover, all of them had smiles on their faces. They did not feel jealous of Yici because of her appearance.

Perhaps it was because Lingsu treated them very well that he was so approachable now. When the servants saw him, they also greeted him with smiles on their faces.

This was the clue that Yici discovered. She was used to seeing those palace maids and eunuchs who looked down on people like dogs. But there was none here. Everyone was very happy to stay in the residence and one could imagine how good a general their mistress was.

"Senior brother, I didn't expect you to be so well received normally."

"Senior brother, I have my own charisma. I will be like this no matter where I go. You don't have to make a fuss about it. When you go out later, you have to follow me closely."

Yici did not know the meaning of his words. She chased after him and asked purely, "Why?"
