Chapter 361: The pot calling the kettle black
After Li Wutong left with a puzzled look on his face, Wei Changtian fell asleep and didn't open his eyes until the sun was high in the sky.
Sleeping is sleeping, but sword fighting is still necessary.
Now Wei Changtian no longer practiced the Tiaoyue Sword, but turned to practice the "Luoqiong" that Old Zhang had just taught him a few days ago.
As the unique skill of the White Palace, the Luoqiong Sword is indeed worthy of the rating of a "heaven-level" sword technique. Wei Changtian practiced for several nights and only managed to learn three moves temporarily, which is still a long way from mastering all thirty-six moves.
What's more, there is the last move which is rated as "semi-immortal" level by the system.
Judging from Old Zhang's description, there should be no problem with this move.
I just don’t know if I can master it.
After a simple wash, a maid brought the food into the room.
Wei Changtian called Chu Xianping over again and asked about the latest situation while eating.
The result was as expected, and there were no surprises.
The imperial guards who went to hunt down Bai Youheng have not sent back any news yet, which means they definitely haven't found him.
Yu Pingjun hadn't spoken yet.
Oh, it seems I need to find a way.
"Brother Chu, what do you think a woman like Yu Pingjun would be afraid of?"
Taking a mouthful of fragrant rice, Wei Changtian asked casually, "She is definitely not afraid of death. Do you think it would be useful to threaten her with the lives of the Yu family members?"
"Sir, I think it should be useless."
Without much hesitation, Chu Xianping quickly shook his head and replied: "There shouldn't be any disputes between Bai Youheng and Yu Pingjun. There is only one reasonable reason why they are involved together."
"That's Ning Yongnian."
"Whatever these three are planning, it must be something big enough to turn Dafeng upside down. Yu Pingjun dare not talk about this conspiracy, let alone tell it."
"She probably knows that we will do everything we can to force her to speak, so she looks so crazy."
“.”
Chu Xianping's analysis continued. Wei Changtian couldn't help but frown as he listened, and the chopsticks in his hand had been suspended in the air for a long time.
"Are you saying that Yu Pingjun is pretending to be crazy?"
"yes."
Chu Xianping was very sure: "She must be pretending to be crazy."
"But even if you're pretending to be crazy."
Wei Changtian simply put down his chopsticks: "But if what she thinks in her heart is really as you said, then we still can't ask anything."
Chu Xianping shook his head again: "Sir, this may not be the case."
not necessarily?
You are the one who said that it is impossible to ask, and you are the one who said that it is possible to ask! Can you just say it directly if you have a solution, and stop playing the "twists and turns" game? ! Or do people with high IQ like to talk like this? ? ? Complaining in his heart, Wei Changtian resisted the urge to roll his eyes and asked in a low voice: "Brother Chu, what solution do you have?"
“There is no solution yet.”
Chu Xianping calmly replied in the face of Wei Changtian's surprised gaze: "But maybe we can try another direction."
"Change direction?"
Wei Changtian was stunned: "What do you mean?"
"Sir, whether it is torture or threats, it is all coercion."
Chu Xianping leaned forward slightly and said thoughtfully: "Since this way doesn't work, why don't we let Yu Pingjun speak for himself."
"How can I get her to speak for herself?" Wei Changtian was puzzled.
"It's simple. She has to have a reason for doing what she does."
Chu Xianping smiled and said, "We just need to untie her knot."
"Hiss, what do you mean?"
As if a finger had pierced through the window paper, Wei Changtian's mind suddenly became clear: "Find out why she betrayed Li Qi, and then use this to pry her mouth open?"
"That's right."
Chu Xianping paused for a moment and said, "But I haven't figured out the reason yet. Maybe I need to ask Li Qi first."
"Um"
Wei Changtian nodded without comment, and at this moment his mind was also thinking about this question rapidly.
Why did Yu Pingjun betray Li Qi? What deep hatred did they have that made her not only cheat on him but also ruin the Li family's inheritance? Li Qi was not good enough? This was too far-fetched.
Yu Pingjun wants more power and wants to be the empress?
This is somewhat possible. After all, the current situation seems like Yu Pingjun and Ning Yongnian are preparing to join forces to annex the Dafeng kingdom.
But even if this really happened, Ning Yongnian would never let Yu Pingjun become the empress, and the latter's power would not necessarily be much greater than it is now.
Aren't you just preparing for Ning Yongnian's wedding?
Yu Pingjun is not stupid. What's wrong with being a queen peacefully?
So, could it be due to something else? Wait!
An image of a shy woman holding a sachet flashed through his mind, and Wei Changtian suddenly thought of Li Wutong at this moment.
Could it be that Li Qi has no sons, only two daughters.
The eldest daughter was born to a concubine, but died at a very young age.
The second daughter is Li Wutong.
Since Li Wutong was "born", no one in Li Qi's harem has been pregnant.
You have to know that this is a world of cultivation. There are countless aphrodisiac items like the "Wood Butterfly". As long as you have money, you will definitely not have any problems in that regard.
So the reason why Li Qi didn’t have any more children was definitely not because he couldn’t, but only because he didn’t want to.
“.”
The identity of Li Wutong the deer demon.
Yu Pingjun, who knew this but was still willing to pretend to be his biological mother.
Li Qi who doesn't want to have children.
When these seemingly unrelated clues were connected together, Wei Changtian suddenly had a bold guess, and felt more and more that this might be the truth.
Of course, I still need to confirm some details with Li Qi.
"Brother Chu, I think I know why Yu Pingjun hates Li Qi."
“.”
After reaching a conclusion, Wei Changtian whispered his guess to Chu Xianping.
However, the latter did not show an expression of "Sir, you are such a genius" when he heard this. Instead, he gave a negative attitude after thinking for a while.
"Sir, isn't this reason too childish?"
childish?
Wei Changtian immediately understood what Chu Xianping meant.
He obviously did not believe that Yu Pingjun would take such an exaggerated revenge for such a trivial matter as "love between men and women".
In fact, Chu Xianping’s idea was not wrong.
After all, in such a "polygamous" world, Li Qi, as the emperor, already has countless concubines. It is highly unlikely that Yu Pingjun would be jealous just because the latter had a child with another "woman".
Even if they are jealous, it is unlikely that they would retaliate to this extent.
So if we analyze it rationally, Chu Xianping's point of view seems to be more correct.
But... "Brother Chu, in terms of strategy, I may not be as good as you."
Looking at the serious Chu Xianping, Wei Changtian smiled complacently:
"But when it comes to who understands women's minds better, hehe."
"I think I'm still a little better than you!"
