Chapter 463 Showdown
Chapter 463 Showdown
Li Jiangnan didn't want to entangle with Yumiko, because he knew very well that entanglement with a woman like Yumiko would only bring him danger, so he replied coldly: "Your Highness is too much in charge."
"Anything about me has nothing to do with His Highness."
"I just hope that Your Highness will keep his promise, and within three days, don't be hostile to me, and don't interfere in any of my affairs."
Leaving this sentence, Li Jiangnan turned around and left. If Yumiko wanted to tear up the promise at this time, he would consider turning his face directly, subduing Yumiko, and then leaving her alone in the mountains to feed the mosquitoes all night.
Seeing that Li Jiangnan was about to leave, Yumiko didn't go up to stop her. She looked at Li Jiangnan's back and said with a smile, "Yumiko already knows the secret of Mr. Jiangnan."
"Sir, you need Spirit Turtle Grass to treat an important relative or friend."
"It's a pity that the amount of Spirit Turtle Grass in Mr.'s hands is limited. Sir, you should know that using Spirit Turtle Grass as medicine, whether it is to detoxify and cure diseases, or to prolong life, a small amount of Spirit Turtle Grass does not have much meaning."
Li Jiangnan couldn't help but stagnate after hearing this, and began to doubt in his heart, is Yumiko's words true or false?
Yumiko walked over slowly, and said with a half-smile: "Since a small amount of Spirit Turtle Grass is meaningless to Mister, then Mister still needs to find a large amount of Spirit Turtle Grass."
"It's a pity that sir is not familiar with the environment in this sacred mountain, and he doesn't know where there is a large amount of spirit turtle grass produced in this sacred mountain."
After hearing this, Li Jiangnan looked at her with flickering eyes, thinking in his heart, what did Yumiko mean by saying these things?
Yumiko gloated: "If you still need more spirit turtle grass, you can ask Yumiko for help."
"Yumiko can point out a clear path for you, and tell you where you can find enough spirit turtle herbs."
Li Jiangnan was unmoved, and said indifferently: "His Highness's kindness, I appreciate it."
"What I need, I will solve by myself, and I dare not ask Your Highness to help."
After Li Jiangnan finished speaking, he turned and left.
To be honest, it wasn't that he was indifferent to finding more spirit turtles, but that he couldn't believe Yumiko.
He could tell that Yumiko was obviously using the turtle grass as bait, either threatening him or using him, most likely asking him to save Yumiko's grandfather.
Li Jiangnan thought very clearly about this matter.
The current Xuan Palace is full of dangers, and Yumiko is already difficult for him to guard against. If he goes to treat Yumiko's grandfather again, if he is not careful, he will be involved in an even more brutal court struggle. For him, the risk is too great. big.
Li Jiangnan just left without any intention of negotiating. Yumiko didn't go up and force her to stay. She looked at Li Jiangnan's back as she walked away, her complexion gradually turned cold, and a complicated light flashed in her eyes.
……
In the morning, Li Jiangnan was still stranded in his temporary room as Li Lanjiang.
For almost the whole morning, Li Jiangnan paced back and forth thinking, should he venture into the holy mountain again tonight?
Li Jiangnan couldn't believe what Yumiko said, but he didn't dare to disbelieve it. After all, he needed the Spirit Turtle Grass to detoxify Bai Ruotong. , equal to a hard work in vain.
Li Jiangnan thought about it carefully for a while, and felt that he still couldn't take care of himself. It was necessary to venture into the holy mountain again tonight. At worst, he would track down those annoying turtles and never go to Yumiko for help.
At this time, someone knocked on the door of the wing room, and Li Jiangnan went over to open the barrier door, and the zombie-faced Shinkawa Zuobei appeared at the door leading two guards.
"Hello, Mr. Li."
Sahei Shinkawa first bowed, and then said expressionlessly: "His Royal Highness Yumiko invites you to taste tea, please come with us."
After hearing this, Li Jiangnan looked at them, frowning secretly.
He reckoned that Yumiko's invitation to drink tea might not be a good thing, but in this situation, he couldn't refuse, so he could only bite the bullet and go with them.
When I came to the small courtyard where Yumiko lived, there were water pavilions and pavilions, and in the octagonal pavilion, Yumiko, dressed in white like snow, was playing the piano gently.
The smoke from the incense burner curls up, the sound of the piano is melodious and clear, the breeze blows by, and the bamboo forest makes light waves with the wind. What is displayed in front of Li Jiangnan is like a beautiful picture scroll of a lady playing the piano.
However, Li Jiangnan was not in the mood to appreciate and enjoy it at all. He had a bad premonition that Yumiko must have held back a big move and was about to deal with him.
After sending Li Jiangnan to the octagonal gazebo, Xinchuan Zuobingwei led the guards away, Xing Lihuazi walked over quickly, bowed slightly, then led Li Jiangnan into the gazebo, took a futon, and invited him to sit down.
Li Jiangnan was not polite either. He sat down and interrupted Yumiko, who was playing the piano, and said, "Your Highness Yumiko, I wonder if Your Highness called Li Banjiang to come over, what can I order?"
Xinglihuazi stared at him directly, and said with disdain: "Li Jiangnan, stop pretending."
"Miss knew that you were the villain Li Jiangnan, and you still have to pretend, you are too hypocritical!"
"Miss Huazi, where did you start?" Li Jiangnan had no other choice but to hold on to the end, deliberately pretending to be nervous and dazed.
Hanako got up with a whoosh, raised her willow eyebrows, and wanted to say a few rude words to him, but Yumiko gave her a wink and stopped her.
"Whether Mr. Li is Li Lanjiang or Li Jiangnan, they are all visiting guests, Huazi, pouring tea for Mr. Li."
Hanako had no choice but to pick up the teapot angrily, and poured a cup of tea for Li Jiangnan unwillingly.
"Ahem..." Seeing their master and servant like this, Li Jiangnan couldn't say anything more.
"Mr. Lee."
Yumiko bowed slightly, then parted her red lips lightly and said, "May I take the liberty to ask you to come over to the house, because I have something to talk to you seriously."
"It doesn't really matter what kind of identity Mr. Li is. You and I understand that what Yumiko cares about is that I just want to ask Mr. Li to help and treat Yumiko's grandfather."
After hearing this, Li Jiangnan sighed secretly, Yumiko was too smart, and she didn't know where she showed her flaws, but she recognized that she was Li Jiangnan.
Now that it happened, it was meaningless for Li Jiangnan to pretend to be Li Lanjiang in front of Yumiko.
He simply said generously, "Yumiko, there is one thing I have to admire about you. Since when did you confirm that I am Li Jiangnan?"
When Li Jiangnan said this, it was tantamount to a complete showdown. From this moment on, he planned to face Yumiko, his enemy, clearly and frankly.
Yumiko looked at him, smiled slightly and said, "As Yumiko said before, these details are not important."
"The important thing is that Yumiko needs Mr. to help Yumiko's grandfather."
Speaking of this, Yumiko took out a beautiful wooden box from the side, opened the lid, bowed slightly, and put her hands in front of Li Jiangnan.
Li Jiangnan could see clearly that in the wooden box was a bunch of freshly picked spirit turtle herbs.
