Chapter 213

Zhu Houzhao's words were spoken, and everyone in the side hall was shocked. Clearly, no one had expected that the Great Ming Emperor Zhu Houzhao would actually propose this!

Lu Xiaofeng looked at the Emperor in surprise, feeling astonished in his heart!

Imperial Preceptor, this status could be said to be transcendent and noble, and His Majesty just gave it away like that?

Is it that much of a child's play?

However, thinking carefully about the abilities Li Lianhua had just displayed!

Oh, well, it seems there was nothing worth being surprised about?

With Li Lianhua's methods, him serving as the Great Ming Imperial Preceptor was more than enough, right?

"Your Majesty, stop joking. I am not a person of Great Ming, and I am a wanderer who has no fixed abode and likes to travel the Jiang Hu. How could I settle down?"

Li Lianhua was also stunned, then shook his head, politely declining Zhu Houzhao's olive branch!

"Hahaha, Divine Doctor Li really refused. I was just seeing if Divine Doctor Li was willing to stay!"

Hearing Li Lianhua's polite refusal, Zhu Houzhao was naturally disappointed in his heart. Of course, he followed Li Lianhua's words, indicating that he was indeed joking just now.

In this way, he could at least save some of his face!

For Li Lianhua, helping the Great Ming Emperor summon Ye Gucheng's wandering soul and investigating the truth was just a small interlude!

On one hand, he was currently within the borders of Great Ming, and he still hoped that those concubines in the harem would give him more hard-earned money. Befriending the Great Ming Emperor could be said to have a hundred benefits and no harm!

Secondly, ever since he drew the strange technique of Spirit Detention and General Command, he had never displayed it. Now that he had the opportunity to display it, Li Lianhua naturally wanted to try it out!

Of course, there was one last point: the vague threat from the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis earlier had almost caused Li Lianhua to tear his face off with him!

Although Li Lianhua would not specifically target him for these small matters!

But if the opportunity presented itself, he wouldn't mind taking action to pit him and vent his anger!

Therefore, for Li Lianhua, helping Zhu Houzhao summon Ye Gucheng's wandering soul seemed to be helping for nothing without any practical benefits!

But fundamentally, it could be considered killing three birds with one stone!

The things that needed to be done were done, and Li Lianhua had no intention of staying in the imperial palace for long!

After leaving the imperial palace, Li Lianhua headed towards his Lotus Building. After all, Wen Hua was still waiting for him at the Lotus Building!

However, before he had even walked out of the city, suddenly, a figure appeared in front of Li Lianhua!

Looking at the appearance, the other party was clearly waiting for him on purpose!

"Miss Suxin?" Looking at the woman standing in front of him, Li Lianhua looked at her in astonishment.

He never expected that Suxin would appear in front of him so late at night!

"Divine Doctor Li, I have been waiting here for you for nearly half an hour!" Suxin nodded slightly to Li Lianhua and said!

"I wonder, what is the reason for you waiting here for me?" Li Lianhua asked noncommittally, getting straight to the point!

"It is rumored that you, Divine Doctor Li, are intimately familiar with many Jiang Hu secrets. I wonder if you know about the matter of the 'Undefeated Child' Gu Santong?"

Seeing that Li Lianhua had no intention of being polite with her, Suxin didn't intend to waste time either, and asked directly!

"This, it's a long story!" Hearing Miss Suxin ask him about Gu Santong, Li Lianhua pondered for a moment before saying!

This answer made Suxin's eyes light up.

Since Li Lianhua said it was a long story, it meant that he knew about Gu Santong.

And, he knew quite a lot?

"Divine Doctor Li, I have booked a superior room in the inn next door. I wonder if Divine Doctor Li could move there?" Following that, Suxin pointed to an inn not far away!

Since they were going to chat about Gu Santong, and it looked like it would take a long time, naturally they had to find a quiet environment where no one would disturb them!

"This, this..." Hearing Suxin's invitation, Li Lianhua looked at her strangely.

Although they already had a big son like Cheng Shifei.

But in reality, having been 'dead' for twenty years, Suxin looked like she was only in her early twenties. And she was inviting him to an inn room late at night?

How was this any different from a girl inviting you to a hotel room in the middle of the night in modern society?

"Divine Doctor Li, don't misunderstand. I just want to find a quiet place to chat about Santong!"

Seeing Li Lianhua's hesitant expression and strange gaze, Suxin also understood what Li Lianhua meant, and an embarrassed and shy look appeared on her face as she explained!

Well, in this ancient world of comprehensive martial arts, there were no cafes where you could sit down and chat properly.

If you wanted to find a quiet place to chat, it seemed you really could only go to a hotel and open a room?

"Alright then, Miss Suxin, please lead the way!" Nodding, Li Lianhua agreed!

Stepping into the guest room of the inn, Suxin took the initiative to close the door, lest there be ears behind the wall.

Then, she picked up hot water to brew tea!

"Wait, let me do it!" Seeing Suxin preparing to brew tea, Li Lianhua stopped her!

While speaking, he wiped his hand across his storage ring, and a tea canister was taken out!

It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but hard to go from luxury to frugality!

Originally, Li Lianhua also quite liked drinking tea, but ever since he drew the tea canister item and had a fixed supply of 'Enlightenment Ancient Tea', Li Lianhua couldn't get used to drinking other teas!

"Divine Doctor Li, this, you carry this tea with you?" Seeing Li Lianhua take out the tea canister, Suxin looked at him in surprise!

"I am a person who quite likes drinking tea, and besides, I can't get used to other teas, so I just keep a little with me!" Seeing Suxin's surprised look, Li Lianhua smiled slightly and explained casually!

Regarding Li Lianhua's explanation, Suxin nodded slightly and didn't say much more.

A little tea, naturally, was of no consequence!

Soon, as Li Lianhua did it himself, a pot of Enlightenment Ancient Tea was brewed, and they each poured a cup!

"Divine Doctor Li, the matter of Santong you mentioned is a long story, you are now, hmm?"

After picking up the teacup and taking a sip, Suxin asked about Gu Santong.

However, before she could finish her sentence, her expression changed slightly.

Then, she looked in shock at the tea liquid in the cup, which was like liquid gold: "Divine Doctor Li, what tea is this?"

It wasn't just simply delicious; more importantly, after drinking it, she could clearly feel her mind and eyes becoming clear.

The efficacy of this tea made Suxin feel very shocked!

"Enlightenment Ancient Tea. After drinking it, it can make people feel refreshed, and long-term consumption can also increase a person's comprehension!" Li Lianhua explained casually!

"Such immortal tea, thank you, Divine Doctor Li, for your hospitality. This little girl, this little girl has nothing to repay you with..."

Hearing Li Lianhua's explanation and personally experiencing the effect of this Enlightenment Ancient Tea, Suxin felt incredibly shocked.

At the same time, she also felt guilty!

She had nothing to offer, and was even here asking others about Santong.

Yet, the other party even took out such immortal tea to entertain her.

This was like someone going to someone's door to ask for help, and not only did she have no gift to offer, but on the contrary, the other party treated her to a big meal and drink. How could one not feel guilty!
