People in the Tang Dynasty, Jian'an style

As for what they want to do and what the purpose of doing this is, Li Wenbin has not guessed it yet, but he can figure it out with just a little thought - the other party is so eager to send his wife to his crotch, and that must be for some ulterior motive.

Otherwise, could it be because Wu Lezhang is kind and charitable?

After thinking about it, Li Wenbin only thought of one possibility - that is to use the morning smoke as bait to lure himself into the trap, and then use this aspect to attack Li Shimin.

Li Wenbin didn't think that a nobody like him was worthy of being plotted against by Li Jiancheng and his cronies.

After all, isn't it all because of his cheap father, Li Shimin?

After thinking through the causes and consequences, Li Wenbin began to consider what he should do.

Should he expose them on the spot and walk away; or should he swallow the bait in one gulp and then use electric shock to make Wu Lezhang suffer in silence?

Li Wenbin only considered it for a moment and chose the latter without hesitation - for no other reason than that this option was more satisfying.

Yes, it is just to vent anger, and it is definitely not because the bait is too tempting and it would be a crime not to eat it.

Absolutely not!

The pill he gave Chaoyan was another kind of advanced pharmaceutical manufacturing technique - the obedient pill.

As the name suggests, as long as you take this pill, you will become obedient to Li Wenbin and will never do anything harmful to him.

What's even more clever about this pill is that it can make the whole process very natural. Your temperament will not change drastically, and you will not become stupid or foolish. It is impossible to tell that this is caused by taking the pill.

Li Wenbin doesn’t have to worry about the rest - if Wu Lezhang really wants to do something about this matter, Chaoyan will inform him in advance.

But there is no need to tell Ruyue and Jinxiu about this, so as to save them from worrying about this matter.

When they returned to Prince Qin's Mansion, it was already late. Ruyue and Jinxiu helped Li Wenbin wash up.

And that night, Li Wenbin rarely let the two of them sleep with him, but decided to have some quiet time.

He needs to think about what to do in the future.

Li Wenbin felt that he had to hold on to his cheap father's thigh for the time being - at least until after the Xuanwu Gate Incident.

Now the label of "King of Qin" has been firmly engraved on him, and it cannot be washed away.

Li Wenbin and Li Shimin both had a common enemy - Crown Prince Li Jiancheng.

If history had really changed, Li Shimin had fallen and the city gates had been damaged, Li Wenbin would not have thought that he had escaped the disaster.

Therefore, the focus for the next period of time will be to help Li Shimin defeat Li Jiancheng.

If this thing can't be done, there's nothing else to say.

However, Li Wenbin knew very well that with Changsun Wugou and Changsun Wuji behind him, if he wanted to live a truly free and easy life, he had to solve these two troubles.

Chapter 34: What do you want me to do?

Li Wenbin thought for a long time, and the more he thought, the more energetic he became. Finally, he couldn't sleep, so he sat up and looked at the bright moonlight outside.

He decided to go out for a walk since he couldn't sleep anyway.

"Young Master, where are you going?"

Ruyue, who was on duty at night, heard the noise and hurried out.

When Li Wenbin saw her sleepy look, he knew that the girl was woken up by him.

"It's okay. I couldn't sleep so I went out for a walk."

"Please wait a moment. I'll get dressed right away." After hearing this, Ruyue hurried to change clothes, but was stopped by Li Wenbin.

"Don't worry about me, just go to sleep, I'm just wandering around the yard."

Ruyue insisted a few times, but when she saw that Li Wenbin really didn't want her to follow her, she gave up.

After leaving the yard, Li Wenbin strolled around the palace.

It is almost autumn now, and the evenings are quite cool. The pleasant breeze makes Li Wenbin feel refreshed.

He suddenly wanted to compose a poem to express his inner feelings.

At this moment, Li Wenbin seemed to hear some sound - the sound was a bit strange, as if someone was breathing heavily, and it was not just one person.

"Hey, Brother Ergou, please be gentler. Why are you always so impatient?"

"Oh, I haven't seen you for a long time. How can I not be anxious? Come, let me taste it. Has it become saltier or lighter in the past half month?"

Then, there was a sound of sucking skin.

Li Wenbin immediately realized that this must be a servant in the palace having an affair.

Whether male or female, they were all lifelong servants in the mansion. From birth to death, they were Li Shimin's personal property.

If they wanted to get married, they had to get the approval of Li Shimin or Zhangsun Wugou - and even if they could get married and have children, their children would be slaves of the Qin Palace for generations.

Because of this, if the male and female servants in the palace were caught having an affair, they would be beaten to death.

But this kind of thing cannot be stopped, there will always be dry wood and raging fire that will be ignited by a spark.

Today, Li Wenbin met such a pair of wild mandarin ducks.

He couldn't tell who the maid's voice belonged to, but the other Li Wenbin had already figured it out.

It was this person who was the long-time attendant of Prince Wei Li Tai, whom he and Qiuxiang had discussed and planned to get rid of last time, the servant called Ergou.

The two of them had originally planned to frame Ergou, but because Li Tai had not been to Zhangsun Wugou much in recent days, the plan was temporarily shelved.

Plus, Li Wenbin has been a bit busy recently and hasn't been able to take care of him.

Unexpectedly, he met him here tonight and encountered such a thing.

Li Wenbin didn't want to eavesdrop on the wall, but mainly listened to the maid's voice, which he estimated was not going to be good.

He is a serious man, and he has to worry about "national affairs", so naturally he has no interest in such things.

But in just two or three minutes, the task was completed.

Li Wenbin heard the maid complaining, "Brother Ergou, you are still so useless. You even soiled other people's clothes. Really..."

"Oh, you can't blame me for this. It's because you have such a charming body. Hehehe... I'm going to go back first. You can clean up slowly by yourself. When you are done, go back quickly."

After he finished speaking, a black shadow flashed by not far away. It seemed that Ergou, who had entered the sage state, was only concerned about his own pleasure. He didn't care about anything else, just pulled up his pants and ran away.

What a scumbag, he could actually do such a thing.

Li Wenbin exclaimed.

As for the fact that he had just "taught" his wife a lesson in front of someone today, he didn't take it to heart.

Forget it, let’s end today’s walk here. It’s time to go back and hug my girl to sleep.

Li Wenbin turned around and was about to go back, but a man suddenly rushed out, bumped into him, and fell to the ground.

The person who was knocked down was the maid who had just been having an affair. She was knocked to the ground by Li Wenbin and screamed.

"Oh, who is it? Don't you have eyes? I... Han Qiao has seen the young master."

At this time, Li Wenbin finally saw clearly that the maid was none other than Concubine Yang's personal maid, Han Qiao.

Han Qiao saw that he was looking at her with a burning gaze with inquiry in his eyes, and she began to tremble with fear.

Could it be that he saw what happened just now?

"Young master, why are you still awake so late?" Han Qiao asked tentatively.

"Why, do I need to tell you whether I sleep or not?" Li Wenbin sneered, "But you, why are you not sleeping so late and running here? I remember that Concubine Yang's residence is a bit far from here, right?"

"This, that..." Han Qiao stuttered, unable to speak, "I'm here..."

After thinking for a while, she suddenly made up her mind and stood up.

"Young Master, Concubine Yang is still waiting for me to go back and serve her. If you have anything to say, please go and talk to her."

He can't control me anyway. The worst that can happen is that I will just deny it. What can he do to me?

Seeing the girl get up and leave, Li Wenbin laughed - Isn't this really looking down on me?

"Han Qiao, you are right. You are the maid of Concubine Yang. I can't do anything to you. But what about Er Gou? You know, that guy is a coward..."

Li Wenbin said slowly, "If I tell the princess about this and then detain you separately, with just a little trick... guess what will happen?"

what's the result?

Need I say more?

That Ergou will definitely say with tears in his eyes that it was you, Han Qiao, you slut, who seduced him, and he had no choice but to give in.

Not only Li Wenbin, but even Han Qiao thought of this possibility, and her face suddenly turned pale - on such a dark and windy day, with a woman whose face looked like a ghost, Li Wenbin estimated that if she was filming "A Chinese Ghost Story", she would not even need to put on makeup.

"Young Master, it was actually that bastard Ergou who forced me to do this. I really had no choice but to listen to him..."

Han Qiao was also a smart woman. When she realized that the situation was not right, she immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Young Master, please forgive me. I will work like a slave for you in my next life to repay your kindness."

Li Wenbin sneered, "You want to be a slave in your next life? You are a servant of the palace. Do you think you won't be a slave in your next life?"

"..."How can I respond when you talk like that?

Han Qiao hardened her heart, kowtowed and said, "Young Master, just tell me what you want me to do."

Chapter 35: If loyalty is not absolute, it is absolute disloyalty.

Han Qiao knelt on the ground with her head lowered, not daring to look at Li Wenbin at all.

"Young Master, as long as you ask, I am willing to do anything for you."

To be honest, there is a big gap between this woman and the women Li Wenbin has conquered.

However, Han Qiao is only sixteen or seventeen years old, and a woman of this age is unlikely to be ugly.

Moreover, she was Concubine Yang's personal maid, so naturally she couldn't choose those ugly ones. She could be described as a "beautiful lady", which made Li Wenbin's heart beat fast.

However, although he was moved, Li Wenbin had bigger ambitions.

"Put aside your tricks. I am not interested in you. If you do this, you will only degrade yourself."

Han Qiao was stunned, and then her face turned even paler - Li Wenbin didn't want her, did he want her life?

"Young Master, I am stupid and don't know what you want..." She bit her lip, feeling anxious.

"Tell me, what does your queen like to do in her daily life?" At this time, she heard Li Wenbin ask slowly.

His goal is actually...

"You, you..." Han Qiao's body trembled involuntarily, "Your target is the queen?"

No wonder he turned a blind eye to my seduction, it turned out he wanted to...

Li Wenbin was very calm about this: "Of course, is this hard to guess? One is just an ordinary maid, and the other is the concubine of the high and mighty King Qin. Even a fool would know which one to choose, right?"

"No, no, no, you can't..."

"Why not? I remember that Concubine Yang was not very kind to her servants." Li Wenbin sneered, "How long have you been her maid?"

"One year... two months and twelve days..." Han Qiao murmured.

"Oh, you can remember it so clearly, it shows that you must have been deeply touched by what happened with Concubine Yang? So, do you want to continue to endure until the day when you are beaten to death because of some insignificant thing?"

Han Qiao lowered his head and stopped talking.

Concubine Yang is Yang Jier in the TV series. Her father is Emperor Yang of Sui and her mother is Empress Xiao. Perhaps she inherited the genes from her parents, and grew up in a pampered environment. Concubine Yang was very cruel to her servants. She would beat and scold them if they made minor mistakes, and even beat them to death.

Li Wenbin remembered that Han Qiao was, in his impression, Concubine Yang's fifth personal maid - the first four were beaten to death by her.

So, in this situation, can Han Qiao really be loyal to Concubine Yang?

No, she was just afraid that she would be implicated. Li Wenbin was very sure of this.

Therefore, he wants to use this cold skill to conquer Concubine Yang!

"Come on, stand up and talk. The ground is very cold. Young girls like you should not kneel down all the time. Otherwise, you will feel uncomfortable when you get older."

Li Wenbin was in high spirits as he helped Han Qiao up, and even kindly helped her brush off the dirt on her skirt.

Han Qiao's heart trembled - she had never experienced such care before.

Even Ergou never showed any concern for her, or even said any caring words.

"Thank you very much, young master..."
