Xiao Yushi stepped into Li Dui's room and saw that he was packing his luggage, and he couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart. He sighed: "Are you also going to leave me? Who else in this house will stay with me now?" After hearing this, Li Dui lowered his head silently and did not respond.

Li Dui has experienced life and death, and his resentment towards the past has faded. After all, he and Xiao Yushi have been together for decades and have gone through many ups and downs together. He did not specifically inform Xiao Yushi of his departure this time, but because the matter was in a hurry, he needed to catch up with the southbound team as soon as possible.

"Where are you going?" Seeing Li Dui's firm look, Xiao Yushi knew that he would do what he said, so he lowered his tone and asked. Li Dui raised his head, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes: "I'm going to Lingnan!" After that, he continued to pack his luggage and put the trauma medicine in the house into his bag one by one.

Seeing this, Xiao Yushi couldn't help but ask: "The situation in Lingnan is currently turbulent. If you have nothing important, it's better not to get involved." Li Dui stopped what he was doing and said in a deep voice: "This matter is not trivial. Five The young lady will personally lead the troops to Lingnan, how can I stay out of it?"

When Xiao Yushi heard this, his expression suddenly changed: "What? Yun Xi wants to go to the battlefield in person? How is this possible?" He couldn't believe his ears. All along, Yun Xi has been a young lady in the mansion and has never been involved in military affairs. .

Li Dui explained: "The Empress Dowager has issued a decree, ordering the fifth lady to lead four thousand troops to Lingnan to wipe out the rebels." There was a hint of helplessness and worry in his words.

After hearing this, Xiao Yushi felt a strong fear and uneasiness in his heart. He knew that the situation in Lingnan was complicated and the rebel forces were huge. How could Yun Xi, a woman, cope with it? What's more, she has never experienced the cruelty and bloodshed of the battlefield.

"How can the Empress Dowager be so confused? This is asking Yun Xi to die!" Xiao Yushi roared angrily. The respect he had for the Empress Dowager disappeared at this moment, replaced by endless anger and disappointment.

Li Dui looked at Xiao Yushi's reaction and couldn't help but feel a little moved. He knew that Xiao Yushi was sincerely concerned about Yun Xi's safety, but at this moment, he had to remain calm and rational.

"Master, don't worry, I will fight to the death to protect Fifth Miss Zhou Quan." Li Dui said firmly. He knew that this trip was dangerous, but he also understood that this was their responsibility and obligation as courtiers and family members.

However, Xiao Yushi was not reassured. He knew very well that as the censor of the Censor's Office, he could not leave his post without the emperor's will. But he also knew that Yun Xi's safety was more important than his official position and life.

"Whether she loses her official position or loses her head, it is not as important as her life." Xiao Yushi said decisively. Although his voice was low, it was full of determination.

Li Dui was stunned, looking at Xiao Yushi with eyes full of complicated emotions. He understood that at this moment, Xiao Yushi was no longer the aloof, majestic and inviolable Master Yushi, but an ordinary father who risked everything for his daughter.

"Master, you'd better stay in the mansion. I'm afraid Fifth Young Lady won't be happy when she sees you." Li Dui advised. He knew that Xiao Yushi's appearance would only make Yun Xi more distracted and unable to concentrate on dealing with the dangers on the battlefield.

Xiao Yushi was silent for a moment, and finally nodded: "You are right, I can't be a burden to her. I will stay in the house and wait for news from you." Although his voice was calm, his eyes flashed with determination. light.

When Li Dui saw this, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that with Xiao Yushi sitting in the mansion, they could ensure the peace and stability of the mansion even if they were not there.
