Wang Shaxiong looked at Lu Jing's back and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Li Yushi in the distance had already stopped and turned to look at Lu Jing. Lu Jing was still walking in the empty mountain alley with a calm look. From beginning to end, he only glanced at Li Yushi.

Li Yushi held his white jade folding fan in his hand, looked at Lu Jing coldly for a few seconds, then took a few steps forward and said softly, "Lu Jing, you and I got to know each other. Today... I'll treat you to a drink."

Wang Shaxiong walked to the side of the road, bowed his head and waited, not daring to interrupt, but suddenly felt in his heart... With the temperament shown by Lu Jing, his own Mr. Rain Master was probably going to be rejected.

However……

To Wang Shaxiong's surprise, when he heard Li Yushi's call, Lu Jing stopped in the distance and turned around.

He looked at Li Yushi, with a smile on his face, and replied: "Master Yu once invited me to drink at Yanglu Street, and I ate many delicacies from the mountains and seas that I had never seen before.

Now that I think about it, I owe Mr. Yushi a meal. If you want to see me today, why don't you let Lu Jing invite you to the Deer Restaurant?"

Li Yushi looked indifferent and said: "It's just a meal. Given Mr. Jing's position, why do you need to remember this?"

"But as you said, I really want to see you today. Since the young master has invited me, the Rain Master will naturally agree."

After Lu Jing said this, he did not hesitate, turned around and walked out of Kongshan Lane, heading towards Yanglu Street.

Li Yushi clasped his hands behind his back and walked beside him, without opening the folding fan in his hand. He looked up at the road ahead, wondering what he was thinking.

Wang Shaxiong wore a long sword on his waist and followed Li Yushi.

All the way into Yanglu Street, the shopkeeper saw Li Yushi and Lu Jing, and they immediately bowed to greet them.

"There are already people on the third floor?"

Li Yushi heard the restaurant owner's confession and snorted coldly: "Just drive them out and kill the bear..."

Cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the restaurant owner. Master Li Yu was instructing Wang to kill the bear.

Lu Jing cast a glance at Li Yushi's face and said, "Master Yushi, since Lu Jing is the one responsible for this incident, you shouldn't have to worry about arranging it.

Shopkeeper, just find a quiet seat."

The restaurant owner bowed to Lu Jing repeatedly, looked around as if he was remembering something, and said: "Two noble lords, the sun is shining brightly in Xuandu today. Behind this restaurant is your small courtyard. There is a small pavilion in the courtyard. In the small pavilion,

I have already set up the stove and am sitting around it, enjoying tea and drinking wine. What do you think, gentlemen?"

Li Yushi didn't say anything, but Lu Jing didn't want to embarrass the restaurant owner, so he just nodded in agreement.

So the shopkeeper personally led the three of them into the small courtyard.

The small courtyard behind the restaurant is not actually elegant, because it is winter, and the vegetation has long since withered. It is too laborious to maintain, and the water in the only small pool has been drained out.

Fortunately, it snowed heavily yesterday, and the snowflakes fell on the trees and rockeries, but they had not been cleaned, so there was a unique sense of beauty.

Lu Jing and Li Yushi were sitting by the stove, looking at the snow that had not gone away.

The king killed the bear, wore a long knife on his waist, and poured deer wine for the two of them.

"Master Yushi, please treat me to delicacies from the mountains and seas. I will be the host today, but I can only treat you to a few famous dishes from Yanglu Restaurant, and you can only drink a glass of Yanglu wine, which is not expensive."

Lu Jing smiled and nodded to Wang Shaxiong while talking to Li Yushi.

Li Yushi's face was always cold, and there was a faint anger that could not be suppressed in his eyes.

Wang Shaxiong poured wine for the two of them, but Li Yushi was unwilling to drink. He put the wine glass on the stove and let the hot mist rise from the wine.

But Lu Jing didn't care. The white robe and the white snowflakes, coupled with his jade-like appearance, actually complemented each other.

The two were silent.

It's just that Li Yushi's face was full of anger, but Lu Jing's face always had a smile. This is the difference between the two.

Several dishes were served at Yanglu Restaurant, but Lu Jing did not want to greet Master Li Yu at this time and only wanted to taste them by himself.

It's time for tea.

Li Yushi seemed to be unable to hold back at last. He raised his eyes to look at the courtyard and said in a cold voice: "Lu Jing, I ask myself to be sincere in my friendship with you. I don't see you on weekdays."

I will treat you with courtesy, and I will always call you sir!

I, Master Li Yu, have a certain reputation in Taixuan Capital, and even the adults in the court will politely call me Young Master when they see me."

"It's just that you seem to take this for granted. I treat you with sincerity, but you have never treated me with sincerity. You actually came to the gate of my Li Mansion with your corpse to question my Li family!"

Li Yushi's expression became more and more indifferent, and there was already anger in his eyes when he looked at Lu Jing.

"The reason I came here this time is to ask you, Lu Jing, do you want to be an enemy of my Li family, or have you fallen under the prince's spell and want to use this as an excuse to become an enemy of the seventh prince?"

Lu Jing squinted his eyes, looked at Li Yushi at this time, suddenly smiled softly, and asked: "Master Yu, why are you like this?"

Li Yushi's expression remained unchanged, still indifferent, just looking at Lu Jing.

Lu Jing picked up his chopsticks, picked up a piece of mutton at random, put it into his mouth, chewed slowly, swallowed the mutton, then put down his chopsticks and said softly: "Master Yushi, if you want to ask anything, just ask.

Why do you need to pretend to be immoderate and furious?"

Li Yushi's eyes were still on Lu Jing and he didn't speak.

Lu Jing shook his head and said with a smile: "Master Yu today is different from the past. He knows that I already have a rift with the Li family, but he still wants to treat me with a superior attitude.

As soon as you enter the restaurant, you have to chase people away. If I invite you to drink, the wine glass will burn red if you put it on the stove, and you won't want to take a sip.

At this time, you showed me indifference and provoked me with rage. The evil one complained first, hoping to make me feel aggrieved and reveal the reasons for my group on the Dragon Dance Street..."

When he said this, he flicked his fingers, and a divine thought carrying wind and thunder landed on the wine glass. The wine glass moved sideways and moved in front of Mr. Rain Master.

"Actually, Mr. Yushi, you don't have to be like this. You don't have to pretend to be anything today. Just take off your mask. If you want to ask Lu Jing, just ask him. If Lu Jing wants to answer, he will naturally answer it. If Lu Jing doesn't want to answer, you can't wait.

The method of provoking generals is useless."

With his head lowered, Wang Shaxiong had a strange look in his eyes, and he couldn't help but steal a glance at Young Master Yu.

Today he came here with his son, and he also felt that there was something strange about Master Yu.

Li Yushi has always been good at planning, but when he meets thousands of people, he always smiles and looks like a handsome young man.

Today, he seemed a little out of sorts.

Originally, Wang Shaxiong only thought that Lu Jing's trip to Wulong Street was too rude. Mr. Yushi, who had always been very elegant, was furious and lost his composure.

But when Lu Jing said the words just now.

Master Yu, whose eyes were full of indifference and whose face was vaguely exposed, suddenly calmed down and became as usual.

Although there was no smile on his face at this moment, he became much calmer.

Li Yushi, who was sitting opposite Lu Jing, finally moved his eyes away from Lu Jing's face and fell on the wine glass in front of him.

He did not hesitate to search for the wine glass and drank the already boiling deer wine in one gulp.

"Lu Jing, since you showed your prowess and since I came into contact with you, you have done many things that have surprised me."

When Li Yushi spoke, his tone became calmer. He took the tongs, clamped the fire plate, and personally added a few pieces of charcoal to the stove.

"When I first met you, I thought you were a young man who was willing to study, had a lot of energy in his silence, and was extremely talented."

"I think you have no reason to refuse the invitation from someone like the Seventh Prince, because you have lived in a wealthy family with a humble status for the past nine years. You have seen both the luxury of the palace and the evils of a humble birth.

Such a person, if he looks up and sees a broad road that leads straight to the blue sky, and he is not a slave, how can he refuse when being treated with courtesy by the Seventh Prince?"

"But you rejected me after all."

When Li Yushi said this, he couldn't help but frown and stared at the fire that was rising in the stove: "Later, you ignored your own safety and killed Xu Baiyan inexplicably."

"Later, you were assassinated, but you dared to drag the body into Wulong Street."

"To be honest, all of this makes me a little angry. I, Master Li Yu, have also lobbied many big houses to help the Seventh Prince, and I have also found several extraordinary monks for the Seventh Prince.

But you, a boy who is many years younger than me, make me unable to guess."

Lu Jing quietly

He listened breathlessly to Li Yushi's words. At this point, Li Yushi finally waved his sleeves and waved his hands to brush away the smoke and dust in the air.

"Young master Yushi told me this, do you want to apologize to me?"

Lu Jing's words were not very polite: "You said you were angry because you couldn't guess me, but I think you were angry because you couldn't control me. You said...right?"

Li Yushi waved away Wang Shaxiong who came forward to pour tea, picked up the wine pot himself, and poured wine for himself and Lu Jing.

"Isn't this what happened in Taixuan Capital? Even if you are powerful enough to reach the heavens, even if you are extremely talented, even if you have a huge mansion behind you, even if you have made unparalleled military exploits.

But after all, you have to be driven by others, because above you, there are people who are truly at the top.

Compared to you who just left the Lu Mansion, let alone the Seventh Prince, even if I stand up, my shadow can still cover you.

I wanted to control you at that time, so what's the wonder?"

"It's just a pity that you are a strange species, you don't take soft and hard, and you have some messy but firm rules in your heart, which allows you to temporarily avoid the fate of being controlled by me."

Li Yushi put down the wine bottle, raised the wine glass, and toasted to Lu Jing.

At this time, Lu Jing was unwilling to drink anymore and looked directly at Li Yushi: "You want to kill me in Kongshan Alley!"

Li Yushi's eyes flashed with strange color, but it disappeared in an instant, and there was no strange look on his face.

"Did you learn this news from the head of the Black Stone Hall?"

Li Yushi smiled.
