Chapter 38: The Grandson of the God of War

  Due to the Li Weiling incident, Du He and Li Xueyan also lost their mood for further play. Seeing that the day was already late, Du He suggested going to a wine house to eat and drink a couple of cups to change their mood.

  Li Xueyan took Du He as her main partner and did not refuse him.

  Arriving at a nearby wine house, Du He was generous with his money, dressed in luxurious clothes, and it was clear that he was either rich or noble.

  The shopkeeper and his assistants bustled about, attentively serving them, inviting them to go up to the third floor.

  The third floor is a VIP floor, with only a handful of people.

  Perhaps it was fate, but Du Hejian saw Li Weiling the moment he stepped onto the third floor. She was sitting at the same table as a handsome young man, and their relationship seemed quite intimate.

  The two pairs of eyes met, and those beautiful big eyes showed strong indignation, especially when they noticed the emerald phoenix hairpin on Li Xueyan's head and the curved knife at Du He's waist that belonged to her, even more revealing a resentful expression.

  Perhaps it was because of Li Weiling's family background, but unexpectedly, Li Xueyan did not confront her head-on and even had the heart to yield.

  Li Xueyan's temperament was also strong-willed. If she hadn't been worried about Du He, she wouldn't have lowered her head to Li Weiling, let alone yielded.

  Du He understood Li Xueyan's intention, but still sat down calmly and composedly.

  Du He is gentle and easy-going, but never afraid of trouble, even more so, she doesn't care about being a popular or unpopular girl, Du He just doesn't put it in her heart.

  Ordered a few signature dishes, had a pot of Du Kang wine, and started chatting with Li Xueyan.

  The sound of footsteps echoed, and the young man with a heroic bearing walked over beside Li Wei.

  "In the Li family, I have met two of you before. My sister was impolite, and I apologize on her behalf." The young man, Li Ye, bowed calmly and spoke with a tone that was neither arrogant nor humble, yet also revealed a hint of helplessness.

  "It doesn't matter!" Stretching out his hand, he didn't hit the smiling face, Du He shook his head and smiled: "My sister hasn't brought us much trouble, it's just that her methods are too vicious. If I hadn't met her, others would have died without a doubt!"

  Du He's words were quite serious, this wasn't him being alarmist, but Li Wei Ling's previous move had left him with some lingering fear: that move was ruthless and vicious, cunning and deadly, a single hit would be fatal, those who were hit would undoubtedly die. It seemed like it wasn't orthodox martial arts, but rather a unique killing technique.

  As he spoke, he also gave Li Weiling a sideways glance, unexpectedly discovering that after hearing his words, Li Weiling had not only a face full of annoyance but also a hint of relief and lingering fear in her eyes.

  Du He's severe warning did not provoke Li Ye to show any anger, he only sighed softly and said: "That was my grandmother's ultimate skill, but my sister has a proud temperament, in extreme anger, she used it, absolutely not her own viciousness. But since the mistake is made, I won't be biased, I will report this matter truthfully to Grandfather and let him handle it."

  Hong Fu was a dancer in Yang Su's mansion, Yang Su was the most influential minister in the imperial court at that time, relying on his military victories in the south and north, he had never lost a battle, but his great achievements made Emperor Wen suspicious of him.

  Yang Su himself was not an easy person to deal with, and he had many capable subordinates, especially a powerful and ruthless assassination team hiding in the dark to eliminate dissidents. The Red Whisker Girl was named Dancer, but she was actually a trained assassin, and one of the best, extremely skilled in the art of stabbing and killing.

  Hong E's daughter, Li Weiling, was taught a fatal move by her mother to protect herself from harm, but was warned not to use it unless absolutely necessary.

  In the accessory store, Li Weiling was so anxious that she actually used it. Afterwards, Li Weiling also felt a lingering fear, and it wasn't as sinister and venomous as Du He thought.

  This was the reason why Du He naturally didn't know, but Li Ye's words made Du He feel a great sense of admiration, not because he handled things impartially, but because his every move was filled with the demeanor of a soldier, his speech was strict and strong, making people convinced.

  Soldiers can be said to be the model of men, Du He also has some admiration for this, Li Ye is not ashamed to be the grandson of the great Tang military god Li Jing.

  Du He stood up and smiled: "Since Brother Li has said so, this matter will be settled! I am Du He... This is the curved knife of my younger sister, please trouble yourself to return it."

  "Could it be Qinglian, the creator of the Du Ti Zi font?" Li Ye Hui had obviously heard of Du He's great name and called out in a low voice.

  Du He waved his hand and smiled: "It's just a reputation, these two words 'Mr.' can make me old!"

  As soon as Du He acknowledged his identity, the guests from all directions came over to greet him and respectfully called out "Master Qinglian!"

  In the Tang Dynasty, there were also star-chasers, but they chased not actors and singers, but rather great Confucian scholars who excelled in learning and famous calligraphers whose handwriting was excellent.

  Du He's reputation as a master of calligraphy has long been established, so when he reveals his identity, someone immediately comes up to greet him.

  Du He could only return their greetings one by one and say some polite words, which finally satisfied them and they left.

  "It's just that you write well, what's the big deal!" Li Weiling said with a bit of disdain and sarcasm, unable to bear Du He being so respected by others.

  Li Ye Hui smiled wryly again, having such a sister was also a troublesome thing.

  Du He shook his head and responded with a sympathetic smile, ignoring Li Weiling's provocation.

  It turned out that Li Xueyan couldn't help but respond, "Indeed, there's nothing remarkable about it. It's just that Wen can get the title of a famous calligrapher, and as for Wu, being able to easily beat up an arrogant little girl until she's crying is all."

  She was already at odds with Li Weiling, and the two were like fire and water. Originally, she didn't want to provoke the legendary Hong Biao girl, so she had been tolerant, but when she heard her say that Du He wasn't anything special, she couldn't help but lose her temper.

  In her heart, Du He was an extraordinary existence.

  "What did you say?" Li Weiling's face fell as she suddenly stood up, staring fixedly at Li Xueyan, her powdered face tense.

  Li Xueyan made a weird face and said: "Nothing, just telling the truth!" Her eyes flashed back with a hint of resentment.

  Squeak!

  The eyes of the two people collided with each other, and Du He and Li Yexuan seemed to have heard the sound of electric sparks colliding.

  "Why don't we go over there and talk?" Du He suggested in a low voice.

  Li Ye looked at the two women and nodded in agreement, still feeling a lingering fear.

  Du He took a sip of wine, Li Ye put down his chopsticks and they both found a secluded spot to sit, speaking in hushed tones.

  Du He is extremely fascinated with ancient military affairs, and has been fond of reading "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "The Legend of Yue Fei" and "Sui Tang" since childhood. His interest in history also originated from this.

  As for Li Ye's grandfather Li Jing, he is no stranger.

  Since ancient times, the orthodox military families have been Sun Wu, Han Bai, Wei Huo and Li Yue. Li Jing's use of troops is a resounding figure in Chinese history, and as his grandson, he should not be weak in this regard.

  Du He intentionally steered the conversation towards military matters.

  Li Yèhǔ is a military man, talking about romance with him is like playing the lute to a cow, and discussing literature with him is like asking a pig to lose weight. Du He's discussion of military affairs was more to Li Yèhǔ's taste.

  The two of them talked about ancient and modern times, commented on historical battles, and seemed to have a sense of "it's great that we met, but it's too late".

  Li Ye's cautious nature and extensive reading of military books made every word and action of his a steady pursuit of victory, which greatly benefited Du He.

  Du He's idea was bold and innovative, yet it also had a subtle beauty to it, which left Li Ye in awe.

  It wasn't until much later that Du He suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, and at the same time, Li Ye also shivered.

  The two men simultaneously turned their heads to look back, and before they knew it, the two women had already ended their staring contest and were standing behind them, looking at them with a hungry gaze.

  Du He and Li Ye exchanged a glance again, their eyes communicating with each other, forming a sentence:

  "Brother, take care of yourself!"
