People in the Imperial Music Bureau: The Storytelling Demon Child Nezha

Li Qiye woke up early at the Xu family home.

Xu Lingyue came to call him for morning tea.

"Brother Qiye, time for morning tea."

Li Qiye finished washing up and went out.

Xu Qi'an and Xu Xinnian were both present on this day.

They had dim sum together.

As soon as Li Qiye sat down, he noticed Xu Xinnian looking at him.

"what happened?"

Li Qiye was curious.

Xu Xinnian coughed once.

"Seven Nights, your teacher told me to take you to visit Yunlu Academy when I have time."

Because of Li Qiye, he is now quite famous at Yunlu Academy.

The great scholars treated him exceptionally well, and he was riding high on success.

This is a stark contrast to the treatment they received before.

Li Qiye was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, then smiled and replied, "Okay, I'll go if I have the chance."

He knew that Xu Xinnian wanted him to visit Yunlu Academy so that his future path would be smoother.

The family does not speak two languages.

Xu Xinnian was relieved.

Xu Qi'an silently ate his rice, while Li Qiye knew that Yang Ling hadn't transmigrated here.

He didn't know that Xu Qi'an would eventually travel through time.

With him, will things be different?

It seems he ended the tax and silver case ahead of schedule, and Zhou Li was dealt with by him.

Everything is different now.

Soon, Xu Pingzhi also arrived.

He sat down with a solemn expression.

Li Ru asked, "What's wrong? You look so gloomy so early in the morning."

Xu Pingzhi said, "Something big happened in Kyoto last night."

"event?"

Li Ru laughed and said, "Everyone knows that my family's Qi Ye is a great scholar who has been famous in the capital for his poems. Some wealthy people have even given him two hundred gold coins as a reward."

Seeing Li Ru's smiling face, Li Qiye felt extremely uncomfortable.

Because Li Ru knew how much gold and silver he had received yesterday.

Therefore, quite a lot of it was handed over.

Fortunately, he was quite good at deceiving people and kept half of the gold. He couldn't hand over all the gold because he was keeping a mistress named Pingyang.

"Alas, it wasn't about Qiye, it was last night. The entire Pingyuan Marquis family was slaughtered by the Vice Minister of Revenue and his son."

"Today, the entire Zhou family has been arrested by the Ministry of Justice, and the night watchmen have already searched their home!"

As he spoke, Xu Pingzhi subconsciously glanced at Li Qiye.

For some reason, he always felt that Qiye was inextricably linked to this matter.

Because Li Qiye said that day that he wanted to kill Zhou Li.

Xu Pingzhi noticed that Li Qiye looked calm and composed, without the slightest surprise, and suddenly felt that his intuition was correct.

Upon hearing this, Li Ru couldn't help but say, "The Zhou family and the Earl of Pingyuan were no good either. It's good that they're dead, as long as it has nothing to do with our Xu family."

Xu Pingzhi nodded subconsciously.

This news has spread throughout the capital this morning and is known to everyone.

And the case has already been closed.

Just watch it for fun.

Li Ru urged, "Alright, eat quickly, then go out and make money. None of the three of you are as good as Qi Ye."

"We're just short a little money, and then we'll move to a bigger house."

Upon hearing this, Xu Pingzhi, Xu Qi'an, and Xu Xinnian quickly started eating.

After finishing eating, I went out.

After finishing his meal, Li Qiye went out onto the street.

I need to buy some things and send them to Pingyang.

I went out onto the street.

Li Qiye strolled around casually.

I passed by a jewelry stall.

He stopped and carefully selected one; he had picked one out for Lingyue yesterday, so he would send one to Pingyang as well.

After looking around, Li Qiye took a fancy to a white jade hairpin.

"Boss, how much is this white jade hairpin?"

Two voices sounded at the same time.

Li Qiye looked around in surprise.

The woman beside him also looked at him.

They looked at each other and both saw amazement in each other's eyes.

The sight of the woman before him made even the most vibrant springtime scenery of Kyoto pale in comparison.

Her figure was graceful, like a willow swaying in the spring breeze, each step carrying an innate elegance that drew attention.

Her face was exquisitely beautiful, her fair skin so delicate it seemed to break at a touch, radiating a soft glow under the sunlight, as smooth and lustrous as mutton fat jade.

Her eyebrows, like distant mountains, curved like a new moon in the night sky, natural yet lively, as if hiding a myriad of charms.

Her eyes were like a clear spring, crystal clear yet incredibly deep. The light flowing in her eyes was like twinkling stars, sometimes gentle as water, sometimes revealing intelligence and cunning. With just a glance, she could captivate people's hearts.

Her nose was straight and elegant, perfectly set in her stunningly beautiful face, adding to her noble and aloof air.

Her cherry-like lips were naturally red without any makeup, and the corners of her mouth were always slightly upturned, carrying a faint smile. This smile was like the warm spring sun, warm and charming, making people feel as if they were bathed in a spring breeze.

Her hair ornaments were simple yet exquisite, with several jade hairpins inserted diagonally into her cloud-like black hair. They swayed gently with her movements, producing a delicate and crisp sound, like heavenly music.

A few strands of hair fell beside her fair neck, making her skin appear even more delicate and adding a touch of languid charm to her look.

She wore a light blue brocade dress, the hem of which fluttered in the wind like ripples on a lake.

The skirt is embroidered with exquisite begonia flower patterns, the stitches are fine and lifelike, each flower seems to bloom from a painting, exuding a faint fragrance.

The cuffs and collar were inlaid with pure white fox fur, soft and fluffy, which complemented her skin and made her look even more noble and elegant.

Her every gesture exuded the grace and elegance of a well-bred lady.

She was accompanied by maids, clearly a young lady from a wealthy family.

The woman was Wang Simu, the daughter of a prime minister.

Li Qiye laughed and said, "Young lady, you have good taste."

"Young master, that's true too."

Wang Simu smiled sweetly, her beautiful eyes still radiating amazement.

She had never seen such a handsome man.

Li Qiye did not take what others liked.

He chose another one.

"It is fate that we met, so please accept this jade hairpin from me."

Seeing this, Wang Simu thanked him and said, "Thank you for your modesty, young master. I will pay for your share."

???

Goodness, such a big spender?

Wang Simu paid the money, and Li Qiye thanked him.

"Thank you very much, young lady. My name is Li Qiye. May I ask your name?"

Li Qiye!

"Young master is Li Qiye, the storyteller of Nezha!"

Wang Simu was surprised.

Li Qiye nodded.

Is he that famous now?

Wang Simu smiled slightly, "I have long heard of Young Master Li's great name. You may call me Wang Simu."

! !

It was Wang Simu!

Li Qiye was surprised.

It turns out that Xu Xinnian's lover killed Xinnian to steal Simu's heart; that's true.

Wang Simu continued.

"Is this for your wife, young master?"

Li Qiye shook his head.

"No, I am not married yet, but I am engaged."

His gaze was somewhat surprised; it turned out that Wang Simu in the book was a master of pulling and tugging.

She treats Xu Xinnian like she treats a dog.

Asking this question suddenly makes it seem like they're investigating him.

Upon learning that Li Qiye was engaged, Wang Simu's expression darkened at first, but then she smiled.

"I wonder which lucky girl is that Young Master Li is a storyteller at the brothel? If you admire her, would you be willing to go and support her?"

Li Qiye smiled helplessly upon hearing this.

"Seven nights are certainly welcome, but this brothel is a place of pleasure. Is Miss Wang not afraid?"

Wang Simu shook his head.

"Don't be afraid."

Li Qiye smiled.

"Then welcome Miss Wang for seven nights."

Wang Simu smiled and said, "Then it's a deal."

The two made an agreement and then parted ways.

Li Qiye sighed with joy at the good fortune of the New Year, but then said, "You're in trouble."

Wang Simu seemed to care about him.

A woman, disregarding her reputation, went to the brothel to listen to storytelling.

Can be imagined.

"Sigh, it's New Year's. I'll make it up to you later."

Li Qiye recalled that when he spoke with Wang Simu, her voice was soft and melodious, like a nightingale singing in a valley, pleasant to the ear.
