Chapter 103 [Scheming](2/2)

It was dark at night, and the heavy rain had begun to subside. Tang Lie cut down a dead tree nearby, cut open the wet bark, split the still dry trunk, and lit it next to the carriage, creating a warm bonfire.

He looked towards the far-reaching river in the distance. Every night late at night, he would feel endless emptiness and melancholy in his heart. He didn't know why he was here, and he didn't know where he was going. He couldn't think of anything. When I think about my past, I can’t think of anyone or anything related to me...

Pu Longqi quietly appeared next to Tang Lie and handed him a wine pot. The wine pot was very ordinary and had the word "Xuan" engraved on it.

"What are you thinking about?" Pulongqi asked with a smile.

Tang Lie sighed melancholy: "I was thinking about my past, but it was all blank, as if I had never been to this world before,"

Pu Longqi asked Tang Lie to take a sip. The wine was very beautiful and mellow, and a warm taste filled Tang Lie's chest and abdomen.

Pu Longqi stared at the wine pot for a long time: "Actually, you are much luckier than many people. Some people want to forget what they have done, but they cannot forget it. There is a blank. If you try to look at it from another angle, Look, it is a new beginning. As long as you live seriously and take every day seriously, your world will one day become more colorful."

Tang Lie nodded heavily.

Pu Longqi said: "Cuttlefish, from the first time I saw you, I knew that you were not an ordinary person. You have a kind of tenacity and fighting spirit that no one else can match. Even if you faced that situation with an outnumbered enemy, When there were more than thirty people, I didn't feel any panic or worry about you, because I believed you would be able to win,"

"Thank you," Tang Lie whispered. He saw appreciation and trust in Pu Longqi's eyes, which was the greatest encouragement to him. He suddenly noticed a slim figure walking towards them in the distance. He whispered: "Someone is coming,"

Pu Longqi smiled calmly and said: "They must be those people you beat just now. Everything has a cause and a result."

Sure enough, it was not beyond their expectations. A pleasant female voice said: "How do you two benefactors? Macy came to visit you late at night. I hope you don't take it strangely."

Maisie stood pretty in the wind, her red wind cloak wrapped around her alluring figure, her beautiful ice blue eyes gleaming with deep gaze.

Tang Lie looked at her with some confusion. He always felt that Mai Xi was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her before. His eyes looked very disrespectful in Mai Xi's eyes. Although she was unhappy in her heart, she didn't Without showing it in person, there was still a faint smile on her pretty face.

Pu Longqi slowly turned his head and said with a smile: "Who did I think was so bold? It turns out to be Boss Mei."

When Mei Xi saw Pu Long Qi's appearance, her heart couldn't help but trembled. Her delicate body hurriedly bowed down and said in a trembling voice: "Mei Qi didn't know that Pu Long Qi was here, so I still look at Hai Han for being rude."

Tang Lie was shocked, he didn't expect that Pu Longqi actually knew this girl.

Pu Longqi smiled and said: "Ignorance is not a crime. Besides, I don't know that Boss Mei is here,"

Macy said in panic: "Master Pu, Macy just arrived here and heard about a subordinate who accidentally offended you."

Pu Longqi laughed and said: "I see, I also think that with Boss Mei's mind and courage, how could he create such a rude bunch of rubbish?" His words seemed to be an understatement, but in fact they contained a hidden edge.

At this time, Macy was extremely angry with her subordinates. Why did these blind people provoke Pu Longqi?

Macy smiled apologetically and said: "Master Pu, I will definitely discipline those guys well in the future and never let them do anything rude."

Tang Lie said coldly: "I'm afraid they wouldn't dare to do such a thing without your permission."

Mai Qian's hatred towards Tang Lie gradually grew in her heart, but she did not dare to show it on the surface. She smiled and said: "Thank you to this benefactor for saving Yue Ling. Now that the incident is over and everyone is safe, Yue Ling If she continues to stay here, it will only cause more trouble for you, why don't I take her back,"

Pu Longqi said coldly: "No, since Yue Ling was rescued by Guard Mo, she belongs to Guard Mo according to the laws of the empire. You have no right to take her away."

Mei Xi secretly cried out in her heart. She suddenly knelt down in front of Pu Longqi and said in a trembling voice: "Master Pu, Mei Xi promises you that no one will treat Yue Ling lightly in the future. I just beg you to let her go no matter what." I'll take her away,"

Pulongqi's eyes flashed and he said, "Give me a reason." He had already seen that a mere slave girl would not let Maisie do such a thing.

Maisie said: "Yue Ling is what Leicester likes. If I can't bring her to Leicester, he will probably..."

Pulongqi's heart sank, and he immediately thought of the relationship, and said slowly: "Did Lester threaten you with the life of General Wolf?"

Macy didn't speak, but her eyes were filled with tears.

Pu Longqi said calmly: "If that's the case, you don't need to worry. Adams has a fatal relationship with Lang Xunqi. He will not deal with Lang Xunqi because of the words of that good-for-nothing son."

Macy trembled: "But Lester is a sinister and dirty person..."

Pulongqi waved his hand to stop her from continuing: "It's hard to change what I decided. If Lester really wants someone, you can let him come to me."

Messi bit her lower lip and finally understood that it was difficult to change Pu Longqi's mind, so she had to stand up and leave sadly.

Tang Lie looked at Pu Longqi with eyes full of reverence.

Pu Longqi smiled and said: "The reason why I did this is actually selfish."

Tang Lie looked at him with some confusion.

Pu Longqi's eyes showed resentment: "This son of Adams is simply a dirty and shameless bastard. A few days ago, he stopped Fuling on the street and teased her in the street. Fortunately, I arrived in time."

Tang Lie said angrily: "If I meet him, I will chop him with one knife."

Pu Longqi sighed and said: "There are thousands of people in the imperial capital who want to kill him, but it's a pity that none of them actually do it."

The next morning, the sun finally rose from the east, and the rain that had been raging for many days gradually began to subside. The bridge deck emerged from the water at noon, and people detained on the river bank began to cross the river one after another.

It seemed that Mei Xi still had not given up hope of getting Yue Ling back, and she led her team to quietly follow Tang Lie and his party.

Tang Lie whispered to Pu Long: "Sir, is she planning to force herself?"

Pu Longqi smiled and said: "She doesn't have such courage."

Mei Qi rode up to Pu Long Qi again. She said respectfully: "Master Pu, Mei Qi dare not continue to follow, let alone have the thought of taking away Yue Ling. I only hope that Master Pu can satisfy my request. "

Pulong Qi said coldly: "Just tell me."

Mai Qian said: "I have some personal belongings of Yue Ling, and I want to give them to her in person."

Pu Longqi nodded and signaled Tang Lie to step out of the way to let Mai Qi pass.

With Fuling's comfort, Yue Ling's mood became much more stable, and she was now willing to take the initiative to communicate with others, but she was still fearful in her heart, fearing that they would give her up and fall into the hands of those evil people again.

Before Maisie came to the carriage, she said softly: "Miss Yue Ling, I know I can't help you, but I have no choice but to do many things. I hope you can forgive me. Everything in this box is your personal belongings. Since You are already free, I still return it to you." The car door slowly opened, and a pair of white catkins stretched out to take the suitcase: "Thank you..."

They were already very close to the imperial capital, but Pu Longqi's expression was not at all relaxed. He began to hate the hard-earned officialdom career, but unfortunately he could no longer get rid of it.

Pulongqi pointed to the southwest and said: "There is a set of my villa there. Let's go to rest tonight and tidy up tomorrow before entering the city."

Tang Lie nodded, turned around and looked behind him as usual, only to see Mai Qian and his party also stopped.

Pulongqi smiled and said: "Go and tell her that there is no need to send her away anymore. If you have anything to do, we will talk about it later."

Tang Lie responded with a smile, jumped off the carriage and walked towards Mai Qi who was at the front of the opponent's team. He didn't have a good impression of this female slave owner and said coldly: "My lord said, you don't have to send her far away." "Okay, we'll talk about it later if you have anything to do. Also, I don't want others to know about your arrival in the imperial capital, so you can handle it yourself," he said and walked away.

Looking at Tang Lie's back, Mai Qian felt inexplicable hatred in her heart and said viciously: "The fox pretends to be the tiger's power, and the villain succeeds."

This villa is just one of many houses in Pulongqi. When they came to the front of the villa, the warriors in charge of guarding had discovered their whereabouts. When they heard that the owner was coming, twenty armored warriors hurriedly opened the door and lined up to greet them. They were all puzzled by the master's low-key return.

Pu Longqi smiled and said to the warrior headed by him: "Bo Li, this is Guard Mo. You should follow him and learn more from him in the future." This sentence already revealed Tang Lie's transcendent status.

Several people went back to rest. Bo Li personally took Tang Lie to the small courtyard at the back. He said respectfully: "Guard Mo, no one has lived in this small courtyard. It is cleaned every day. It is quiet and comfortable. You will be here today." have a rest,"

Tang Lie smiled and said: "Why are you so polite? My name is Cuyu. Judging from my age, I'm afraid you are older than me. From now on, you can just call me Brother Mo."

Bo Li was also a straightforward person. Seeing that Tang Lie was so cheerful, he stopped being polite and said cheerfully: "Okay, Brother Mo, I'll have someone prepare hot water for you to take a bath. Let us guys have a good drink at night." Two glasses,”

Having said that, when it was time to eat in the evening, Tang Lie was called by Pu Longqi to Yuebo Pavilion to accompany him for dinner. This kind of honor was something that other warriors could not enjoy, and it made these warriors understand that Pu Longqi The importance attached to Tang Lie.

After dinner, Pu Longqi pushed a wooden box towards Tang Lie and said: "Inside is the remuneration you deserve, you can take it."

Tang Lie said: "I'm not short of money. I'd better leave it with you first and ask you for it when I need it." What he said was true. The gold and silver he snatched from those pirates alone was enough for him to squander. For a while.

Pulongqi smiled and said, "Just take it if I tell you to. It's always better to have more gold in your hand." He took out another scroll of bamboo slips and said, "Squid, you go into the city with Bo Li tonight and put this letter in your hand." This letter is sent to Lord Sima Tai,"

Tang Lie nodded and carefully took the bamboo slip.

Pu Longqi said: "Remember, you must hand it to Master Sima Tai personally. If he has any reply, come back and tell me as soon as possible."

Bo Li was very familiar with everything in the Imperial Capital. The two of them did not enter through the main gate of Sima Mansion, but went straight to the back door.

Tang Lie was originally worried that Sima Tai would not see them at this time, but he did not expect that Sima Tai seemed to know that they were coming, and after informing them, he allowed them to enter the house.

Sima Tai's personal bodyguard Susaya pointed to the door and said, "Which of you should go in?"

According to Pu Longqi's instructions in advance, Tang Lie naturally assumed this task. He became more and more curious about why Sima Tai, with his status that he respected so much, was allowed to enter the study without interrogation and meet him directly. The reason was probably There are two reasons. Perhaps Pu Longqi had greeted him in advance, or perhaps Sima Tai had some reliance and was not afraid of outsiders doing anything bad to him. The latter is probably more likely.

Sima Tai sat under the light, and the lights flickered on and off, making his expression even more unpredictable.

After Tang Lie paid a respectful visit, he handed the bamboo slips Pulong Qirang brought to Sima Tai's hands.

Sima Tai looked at it for a long time and whispered: "Master Pu has arrived safely,"

Without waiting for Tang Lie to answer, he added: "Since you are back, why don't you come to see me?"

Tang Lie said neither humble nor arrogantly: "Master Pu is tired from the journey, and a lot of things happened on the way, so I want to take a rest first."

Sima Tai raised his head and glanced at Tang Lie and said, "It seems like this is your first time here."

Tang Lie said calmly: "It's rare for Master Pu to trust me."

Sima Tai chuckled and said, "Yes, Lord Pu has a warrior like you by his side, which proves that his vision is still young." He closed the bamboo slip and said, "What did you gain from going to Crystal City this time?"

Tang Lie was startled in his heart, but his expression was like an ancient well. Sima Tai's question seemed simple, but it was actually difficult to answer. Did Pu Longqi mention this situation in the letter he wrote to him? First of all, Tang Lie didn't know the specific situation of Pu Longqi in Crystal City. Secondly, even though he knew it, he couldn't tell Sima Tai everything. He smiled and said: "Master Pu has strict requirements on us, and his important matters are never tolerated. We'll ask,"
