"Very familiar?"
Upon hearing this answer, Li Yunqing couldn't help but ponder. He only knew a handful of people around him; could it be his own housekeeper?
This isn't right; even the butler isn't qualified.
etc!
He suddenly thought of someone and exclaimed, "Father, could it be He Zudao?"
"Haha, it's him."
Li Sansi couldn't help but burst into laughter, then said meaningfully, "Son, don't underestimate anyone in the All Under Heaven. Anyone you think is ordinary may actually possess unique abilities."
"If He Zudao had no ability, how could he have become my confidant? Back then, he was determined to take revenge on Lin Rusong, so he volunteered to build this Raging Waves Bridge!"
"You have to understand that he was just an ordinary citizen back then, yet he had such courage and boldness. That's precisely why I value his abilities and courage."
Looking at the surging waves, he once again thought of that child with a face full of hatred, whose resolute determination was truly moving.
Unfortunately, I still let him down; all these years, I couldn't do anything to Lin Rusong.
this...
Li Yunqing was dumbfounded. He found it hard to connect the guy who had been stripped naked by the Heir of Northern Liang, leaving him only in his underwear, with the magnificent bridge.
He Zudao so brave. An ordinary citizen actually dared to volunteer to build such a terrifying bridge. This guy is awesome.
He couldn't help but smile wryly, "Father, you're right. I really underestimated All Under Heaven. Now I just want to see what kind of person this Heir of Northern Liang, who has been causing so much trouble in the entire north, really is!"
There are some things you can't deny; I ultimately made some assumptions.
"Let's go then, I'm curious too!" Li Sansi laughed heartily, pulling his son towards the other side of the bridge.
The father and son soon reached the end of the bridge, but upon seeing the soldiers guarding the area, their expressions stiffened. It turned out that Lin Yi had known there was a problem here all along and had the soldiers guard it.
How can I get through this?
The father and son exchanged a glance. Now they had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow the group of merchants with their heads down. Given their status, even if they were caught, Lin Yi wouldn't dare to do anything to them. So they decided to take the risk.
"Stop!"
A voice suddenly rang out, like a thunderclap, making the father and son's hearts skip a beat.
Were we discovered?
Never mind, let's keep going!
"Those two quacks selling medicated plasters, stop right there! If you dare to make another move, kill them on sight!"
Holy crap!
The father and son dared not move now; they were certain to be killed on sight. To kill them like this would be such a terrible injustice.
"Sir, please don't misunderstand, we are all law-abiding citizens!" Li Sansi said, forcing a smile.
snort!
Soon, the leading soldier approached and blocked their path, saying in a deep voice, "You're both strangers. What are you doing in my Xiliang Commandery? Do you have any travel permits?"
Road permit?
Li Sansi breathed a sigh of relief and took out a travel permit from his pocket, handing it to him. Luckily, he had made thorough preparations beforehand and had someone get him a travel permit; otherwise, he probably wouldn't have been able to cross the bridge.
The road pass was first created in Xiliang Commandery; it was that kid Lin Yi who came up with it.
After entering the territory of Xiliang, you need to obtain a travel permit, specify your general destination and purpose, and they will also ask about your place of origin to avoid confusion caused by people with the same name.
He initially praised this thing highly upon hearing about it, but little did he know that it almost exposed him.
The leader glanced at them and nodded slightly. "You may leave, but war is about to break out, so I suggest you don't go to Dayu County!"
"A war is about to break out? My cousin is still in Dayu County, is it true, sir!" Li Sansi asked in horror and shock.
Li Yunqi secretly gave a thumbs up; his father's acting was quite good.
The soldier hesitated for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "You'd better watch yourselves. However, the governor hasn't forbidden you from entering the city, so you can go if you want, but be careful."
"Thank you, sir!" Li Sansi bowed in thanks before the father and son left the guards.
After walking a distance, the two breathed a sigh of relief. They had finally made it; they almost got discovered before they even saw any sign of Xiliang Commandery.
"Dad, what's with this travel permit?"
"This was created by Lin Yi. In order to prevent those who engage in illegal trade from entering Xiliang Commandery and causing trouble, he came up with regulations that had an immediate effect!" Li Sansi said with a complicated expression.
To be honest, he was also preparing to implement this regulation, since it would greatly limit the presence of spies and the like.
However, it still had some flaws, which is why we approved it.
"Goodness, I didn't expect that kid to be this good. He's got some skills!" Li Yunqing exclaimed in amazement, unable to help but laugh.
"Haha, it's not just a few tricks up your sleeve!"
Just then, a laugh suddenly rang out beside the father and son, instantly sending chills down their spines. Someone had been hiding right next to them all along.
Under the astonished gazes of the two, a group of people dressed in black finery walked straight over, their chests embroidered with a net.
" The Net!"
Li Sansi remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was in turmoil. He hadn't expected to be targeted by Lin Yi's Net so soon after arriving in Xiliang Commandery. This was just too damn impressive.
He couldn't help but frown and said, "What advice do you have for me, sir? My father and I are just medicine sellers, we don't have much money."
"Haha, stop pretending. Your travel permits tell me you're imposters!" the newcomer sneered, his face full of disdain.
When they actually came face to face with the Net, they dared to play dumb; that was practically courting death.
Li Sansi's pupils contracted; he had actually been discovered. He frowned and said, "Why do you say that, sir? We are just merchants; our travel permits are fine, aren't they?"
"Yeah?"
The members of the Net sneered, producing two blueprints in their hands. They said in a deep voice, "People only know we have travel permits, but they don't know that travel permits usually come with matching portraits. Each checkpoint has a copy on file. Do you think you can fool them?"
The drawing was opened, revealing the two people who had originally bought the plaster, but they didn't resemble Li Sansi at all, instantly making Li Sansi feel embarrassed.
I was just saying there was a loophole in this travel permit, I never expected there would be such a trick, this is too insidious.
He said awkwardly, "Sir, I just saw that it's easy to make money in Xiliang these days, so I bought this man's travel permit hoping to earn some money. I'm definitely not a bad person!"
"Hahaha, this matter is not under my jurisdiction. Someone will take care of you with the interrogation!" The Net member laughed heartily, completely unconcerned.
Forehead!
The father and son's expressions changed drastically; they were about to be interrogated—this was a huge problem.
The Net of Heaven) has instilled fear in the entire Xiliang Commandery. If someone were to be interrogated by them, they would probably be skinned alive.
Li Sansi took a deep breath, pulled out a token from his robes, and said in a deep voice, "Wait a moment. This time, I've come to discuss state affairs with your heir..."
