The most powerful minister in the world

Chapter 172 Goodbye Uncle Xishi

The east wind is full of glory, and the fragrant mist surrounds the beams.

For fear of falling asleep late at night, burn high candles and red makeup.

In the medicine warehouse wing, Li San faced the bronze mirror and squinted at Jing Xi, who was sitting on the stool beside the table, pressing his shoulders and sliding his arms, still looking unhappy.

She asked in a hoarse voice: "You almost killed someone today, did you know?"

The house was quiet except for the chirping of insects in the yard.

The lamp oil in the candlestick sizzled from time to time due to the flames on the oil rope, and the orange-red firelight flickered on Jingxi's face.

He suddenly jumped on the stool and squatted down, shouting: "Young Master, I have killed many people, including him."

"Look at how proud you are, what kind of honor is killing people?"

Li San pinched his throat. Her throat had been uncomfortable since she stopped her roar today, and now it was even more painful like a fire.

She took off her hairpin, smoothed her hair, sat next to Jingxi, patted the table and said, "Sit tight."

Although Jingxi's eyes almost rolled out of his head, he still reluctantly complied.

Li San had just washed her body in the wooden barrel tonight, and her body had a floral fragrance. Especially when she stroked her hair, the charming fragrance became stronger and stronger.

"What does that girl have to do with you to deserve you to fight for her injustice like this?"

Naturally, Jingxi wouldn't tell her. If he did, wouldn't he also reveal his hidden identity?

He only murmured: "When will it be your turn to take care of my affairs?"

Speaking of women, it's really strange. It turns out that Li San doesn't care about what Jing Xi wants to do.

But today, she saw that Jingxi could get so angry that he almost caused a life-threatening lawsuit over a woman, which undoubtedly aroused her curiosity.

Even though Jing Xi's words were a little unpleasant now, she didn't care at all. She just poured a glass of water and drank it to the bottom. She held her fragrant cheeks and said with a smile, "Is this your little sweetheart?"

"So what if it is, so what if it's not?" Jing Xi said quietly looking at Li San with his hands on his chest.

Li San smiled, rubbed his red cheeks that were a little stiff because he hadn't smiled for a long time, and said rather playfully: "Oh my, there is nothing to be shy about. Even if the son of your dignified family is not from this family, then he is not considered to be one." We are ordinary people, isn’t it normal to have a few good friends?”

Hearing this, Jing Xi narrowed his eyes, leaned towards Li San and teased: "You took a shower tonight with vinegar, right? Why does the whole room smell like vinegar?"

Li San blushed, and patted Jing Xi's face rather boldly and said, "Some people have thicker skin than city walls. I, girl, will I be jealous of you?"

Jingxi suddenly grabbed Li San's weak and boneless hand, pulled her into his arms, pinched her chin and teased: "Look, it's only been a few days since I regained my daughter's body, and my true nature has been revealed. To be honest, I still quite like you like this."

Li San surprisingly didn't resist too much. He happily put his arms around Jing Xi's neck and smiled in a flattering way.

Jingxi was secretly frightened, and quickly grabbed the back of his head with one hand: "I'm really scared of you. You just said that killing someone is not a glorious thing. Then why did the scissors in your hand end up behind my head?"

As he spoke, he slapped the scissors to the ground with all his strength.

Li San remained calm, still smiling flatteringly, and slowly moved his left hand to Jingxi's neck. In the blink of an eye, a polished dagger came out of his sleeve.

The tip of the dagger was right on Jing Xi's bulging blood vessel. With just one click, a hard-to-find person was missing from the world.

In this situation, Jingxi had no choice but to raise his hands and surrender.

Seeing that he was timid, Li San pinched his face with satisfaction, imitating his expression and said with a smile: "Look, you are very cute now."

"Tell me, what is the relationship between that girl and you?"

Jingxi smiled contemptuously and said, "Are you saying you're not jealous?"

Li San pressed down the dagger suddenly, and saw a scratch on Jing Xi's neck. She smiled and said, "I forgot to tell you, I have killed people before."

Jingxi saw that the expression between her brows did not look like a joke, and he immediately became interested, and he stretched a hand dishonestly and slowly towards Li San's waist.

At the moment of contact, Li San shuddered, his cheeks turned red and he was about to insert the dagger into Jing Xi's neck.

Unexpectedly, Jingxi's whole body leaned back, and she fell down with him. In the short gap between landing on the ground, Jingxi had already snatched the dagger in his hand.

She got up, grabbed the scissors from the floor, held them tightly with both hands, and stabbed Jing Xi in the stomach like a charge.

There was already a huge gap in strength between the two, but Jingxi had long since come to his senses, and the outcome was of course Li San's complete defeat.

At this moment, Jingxi turned her scissors with her fingers and asked provocatively: "I told you, I will never let you go next time. Maybe it's still too late for you to run away now."

Li San collapsed on the ground, looking around. There was nothing that could be used as a weapon, so he slowly retreated against the ground.

Jingxi licked his lips and chuckled, "You asked for this, you can't blame me."

At this time, Li San pointed at his back and exclaimed: "There is someone behind you!"

"Tch~ Do you think I will be fooled by such a shameless person?" Jingxi rubbed his hands and smiled in a very lewd way.

But at this moment, a hand suddenly put on his shoulder: "Boy, your skin is itchy again, isn't it?"

This rich voice couldn't help but give Jingxi goosebumps all over his body, as if he'd been electrocuted.

He turned his head mechanically and smiled a little forcedly: "Uncle Xishi, how do you know this place?"

The person who came was Xi Shi, the one who kidnapped Wang Xishan's family. He had a large part of the credit for Jing Xi's ability to quickly control the entire Jiangnan Dao army.

At that time, he slapped Jing Xi when they met in the Dancheng warehouse. He was also one of the few people Jing Xi was afraid of in his heart.

At this moment, he was standing behind Jing Xi, his eyes that were born to lie like silkworms unabashedly leaking murderous intent. In the dark night, these eyes were always what people feared.

Xushi did not answer Jingxi's question, but instead carried him out of the house like a chicken, leaving a confused Li San with his head full of questions.

As the saying goes, one thing brings another down. Those who dare to confront Emperor Qianyang and openly disobey the imperial edict are now standing in the yard like a withered cucumber.

If you want to ask why Jingxi is so afraid of Xi Shi, apart from his own strength in the Dongxuan Realm and the innate conditions of getting along with him since childhood.

The most important thing is because Xi Shi's representative is Liu Ningmei. It can be understood that Xi Shiquan is Liu Ningmei's Shang Fang sword, seeing the sword is like seeing a person.

No one knows the origin of Xi Shi, even Liu Ningmei knows little about it.

The first time Liu Ningmei and Jing Xi met him was on a rainy autumn night.

At that time, Jing Xi and Liu Ningmei ran away secretly from home. It must be said that the two children left the capital and walked dozens of miles.

Because the heavy rain didn't stop, they rested in a dilapidated temple. Just as the two huddled together to resist the cold, the broken door, which could not be supported by a single tree, was kicked open by Xi Shi, who was covered in blood.

Before the two of them could make any move, they were both picked up by him and taken back to the capital.

The shock of that scene undoubtedly left unforgettable memories in Jingxi's young mind.
