Chapter 141: Inviting the Moon: I'm too full of gossip about the Duan family, I can't eat
Since Li Ping killed Tian Boguang and received the 100 taels of silver reward and the 200 taels of silver offered by Master Li, he has never lacked money again.
After he gained fame, countless people rushed to give him money, but unexpectedly, he encountered someone asking to borrow money.
Huang Rong breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Miss Wang, please don't worry about it. Let's go inside and talk."
Wang Yuyan remained silent for a moment, then followed him inside.
When she first came into this world, she encountered several dangers. Later, she met Duan Yu, who protected her. Later, she traveled with Li Ping and the other two. Su Ying and Huang Rong were the only women she was familiar with.
That's why I mustered up the courage to come here.
The story is quite simple. After Duan Zhengchun arrived in the future, he met several female confidantes and naturally brought them all with him. Although they argued and quarreled along the way, their presence was enough to keep things in order.
However, upon seeing Wang Yuyan, Prince Duan and his confidantes immediately concluded that she must be the daughter of Lady Wang and Duan Zhengchun.
After some questioning, it turned out to be true!
At that moment, Duan Yu felt as if he had been struck by lightning. How come every girl he liked was his girl?!
Is this how you ruin your son's life?
Emperor Duan Zhixing of the South, Master Yideng knew the truth, but even as a high-ranking monk, he could only remain silent when he thought of what had happened to his grandfather and great-grandfather.
Those "concubines" naturally didn't give Wang Yuyan a friendly look.
Wang Yuyan, a young lady from a wealthy family, had never been treated like this before, so naturally she didn't want to stay.
However, she had no martial arts skills, no means of making a living, and no money. In desperation, she thought of her acquaintance with Su Ying and Huang Rong and wondered if she could borrow some money to find a place to stay.
Upon hearing this, Huang Rong's expression turned extremely strange. That Prince Duan was truly... eccentric!
That young master Duan Yu was really unlucky...
Huang Rong felt some sympathy for Wang Yuyan, but she knew that sympathizing with others would only make them feel worse. She smiled and said, "Who said Miss Wang doesn't have any skills to make a living?"
"Miss Wang is a master of martial arts..."
Wang Yuyan smiled bitterly, "I only regret that I was short-sighted back then and thought that martial arts were not very useful. Now I only have a head full of theories and I don't know anything."
If I had learned some martial arts, even if I wasn't very good at it, how could I have ended up in this situation?
Huang Rong clapped her hands: "That's enough. I've been having a lot of questions about martial arts lately, and no one can answer them. If Miss Wang can help me, then I should naturally pay her."
Wang Yuyan was stunned for a moment. She was really not stupid. How could a stupid person learn so much martial arts theory just by reading books and even be able to guide others in its application?
She knew that Huang Rong's martial arts were superb, and Li Ping's martial arts were the best in the world. What martial arts questions could they possibly have that she would have to answer herself?
I said that just to make myself feel better, and I am very grateful!
Huang Rong first asked some simple questions, and then gradually delved deeper, which surprised me.
I really underestimated this Miss Wang. Could she have such expertise just by reading books?
This is a genius!
What a pity, what a pity!
Just then, a Buddhist chant suddenly rang out from outside the door, and a voice said, "I am Yideng, requesting an audience with Benefactor Li Ping."
Li Ping stepped forward, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "Greetings, Southern Emperor..."
Master Yideng calmly said, "There is only Yideng here, no Southern Emperor, and Dali has long been returned to the Ming Dynasty."
He then said, "I've heard that Master Li is extremely knowledgeable about the stories of the martial arts world. Do you know anything about my grandfather, Duan Yu...?"
Li Ping nodded.
Master Yideng then asked, "Do you know that person...?"
He pointed to Li Ping's big house, which Li Ping had bought directly because he planned to stay in the capital for a while!
Li Ping said, "That's your grandmother."
Invitation and Lianxing in the room immediately perked up their ears.
From Huang Rong and Wang Yuyan's previous conversation, they heard about the Duan family and Duan Wangye's romantic escapades, and they enjoyed gossiping about it.
Did Duan Yu and Wang Yuyan end up getting married?
They are siblings!
This melon is so big, it's made them feel a bit full. Are the royal families of these small countries really this exaggerated?
Master Yideng smiled wryly, "So you knew all along!"
He said, "I am a person who lives outside the world, and should not concern myself with worldly affairs! But after all, they are my grandparents..."
"I have to get involved, but I don't know how!"
Should we just tell Duan Zhengchun that Duan Yu is actually Duan Yanqing's son? And then Lady Wang and Murong Fu would kill all your confidantes?
How can you say that?
Li Ping tried to see things from Master Yideng's perspective and felt a chill run down his spine.
Tell me, how should Duan Yu and Dao Baifeng conduct themselves?
If he doesn't tell anyone, his grandparents will become his siblings, and then what will he do?
Oh dear, this has caused quite a stir...
Li Ping, having had his fill of gossip, said, "I wonder why Master Yideng is telling me all this?"
Master Yideng said, "First, I would like to ask Master Li not to tell the truth to others."
"Secondly, I would like to ask Ms. Huang and Ms. Su to take care of my grandmother. In this world, my grandmother only knows these two people."
Li Ping smiled and said, "These are minor issues. However, what kind of reward is Master Yideng willing to offer?"
Master Yideng said, "I will do my best."
Li Ping desperately wanted to ask for the Six Meridians Divine Sword, but he knew it was impossible.
Even if Duan Yu or Master Kurong were to hand over the Six Meridians Divine Sword to Master Yideng now, he would never pass on such a technique to himself.
However, it's also worthwhile to cultivate a good relationship with Master Tongdeng. I genuinely want the Six Meridians Divine Sword; even in this world teeming with supernatural beings, this martial art is practically a bug-level skill.
Li Ping laughed and said, "Just kidding! It's nothing. Have you thought about how to handle this in the end?"
This highly respected monk, whose profound Buddhist knowledge even allowed him to forgive his wife's infidelity, gave another bitter smile: "I don't know!"
Oh my...
Master Yideng left, and Yaoyue and Lianxing grabbed Li Ping to ask him for an explanation, while Su Ying watched the drama unfold on the sidelines!
Li Ping promised not to tell the truth to others, but these people are no ordinary people!
So they were told about the entanglements between Prince Duan and his several confidantes, the story of Duan Yu and his good sisters, and Prince Duan's ultimate fate.
The three of them stared wide-eyed; this was such a juicy piece of gossip!
Then, Yaoyue sneered, "See? This is what happens when you flirt with other women."
Li Ping said, "Sister Yaoyue, Ying'er and those others, like Prince Duan, are quite different. You are much more understanding."
"Besides, what's the big deal? If you like them both, just marry them all, right?"
"That Prince Duan was only acting because of his status, and the other party was a rough-and-tumble woman from the martial arts world, or perhaps there was some conflict of interest involved..."
"I don't care about this or that, I like you all, I want them all."
Li Ping's words were clearly incredibly rude, but Yaoyue and Su Ying felt a warm glow in their hearts as they listened.
After all, it was normal for men to have multiple wives and concubines in this era!
Just then, several crisp voices rang out: "Plum (orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum) swordsman requests an audience with Master Li..."
Yaoyue was just moved by what she heard, but when she heard that another young girl was looking for Li Ping, she pinched him on the waist in anger: "You rascal..."
Li Ping said, "This is the maid of the Heavenly Mountain Child Granny, whom I just met!"
"As I just told you, someone gave me such a wonderful gift, I can't just ignore it, can I?"
"Oh dear, Granny Tong... what are you thinking? Granny Tong is over ninety years old."
"My dear sister Yaoyue! It's not that I think you're old, you're so youthful and beautiful that even teenage girls can't compare. Come on, give me a kiss."
"Sakura, give me a kiss too. Even when we're both wrinkled, we'll stay together forever. I just hope you won't mind..."
He really wanted to see the Old Woman Tong and ask her about the origin of the "Time Crystal Sand"!
