It is said that the people I protect are admired by the Six Realms

As soon as he stepped out of the house, Bai Moqian's eyes fell into the magnificent palace pavilion with its complex and intricate features. Rows of guards in armor stood on both sides of the corridor, and several maids were sweeping the courtyard. They saw When they arrived at Li Shao, they all saluted, "Meet the second prince."

"Excuse me." Li Shao waved his hand, and quickly stepped out of the palace gate with his book bag in hand.

There was a carriage parked outside the door, the coachman put down the footstool, and the palace servants who were waiting on the side helped Li Shao into the carriage, and after putting down the curtain, the carriage rattled towards the palace in the east.

In the carriage, Li Shao closed his eyes and recited the articles in the scroll in a low voice, but Bai Moqian couldn't sit still. He had a lot of questions and couldn't wait to know the answers. The impulse to seize the body quietly waited for the moment when the carriage stopped.

About half an hour later, the carriage finally stopped, and there were noisy voices outside. Bai Moqian listened and caught the words "mother queen", "dinner", "father king" and so on.

Li Shao lifted the book bag to his hand, opened the curtain and jumped out of the carriage. Just as he stood still, before Bai Moqian had time to look around, a large group of teenagers surrounded him.

"Second brother! You've made it!"

"My mother made you an osmanthus cake today, so hurry up and try it."

"Brother Erwang, after class, let's go horseback riding and archery in Dongyuan!"

Li Shao took a few steps back and stood still, so Bai Moqian had time to look around.

They stood outside a bookstore, and many carriages were parked on Danji, and the group of teenagers who came up were all in fine clothes and jade crowns. These teenagers were about ten years old, and they all surrounded Li Shao intimately, with admiration in their eyes and reverence.

"Okay, okay, hurry up and go into the house, you're late, sir should scold you again." Li Shao pulled down a young man hanging from his body, and ordered to everyone.

"Okay, I'll listen to Brother Two." The teenagers nodded one after another, and followed Li Shao into the study one after another.

Li Shao took a seat in the front row, took out a scroll and began to read silently, the group of teenagers were still surrounding him, Bai Moqian felt noisy, and wondered why Li Shao was so popular with children, he was drinking jealously when the noise around him suddenly stopped up.

Bai Moqian looked up, and saw a young man with sword-browed and star-eyed eyes walking in. He was about the same age as Li Shao. He was wearing a black robe trimmed with gold thread. With a rough sense of oppression.

Li Shao put down the scroll, got up and bowed to the boy, with a respectful and humble expression, "Brother Wang."

The young man nodded, and when he looked at Li Shao, his sharp eyes softened a lot. He let out a "huh" and raised his eyes to glance at the others.

The teenagers around Li Shao seemed to be very afraid of him, shrunk their shoulders and hid, calling him in a low voice, "Brother Big King" in a few random voices, which was completely different from the situation when they called Li Shao just now.

The young man didn't care, he sat down on the seat beside Li Shao, and spread out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in the book bag one by one.

Li Shao sat back in his seat and continued to recite the essay silently.

Not long after, the Taifu in a brown robe came in holding a stack of rice paper, Bai Moqian took a look at him, he was an old man with gray beard and hair, always with a straight face.

The Taifu distributed the rice papers in his hand to all the princes one by one, coughed and said, "Today I will do a small test, the topic is 'He Zong', and the time limit is one hour."

As soon as the words fell, there was a lot of complaints in the study——

"Sir, didn't you just take the test yesterday? Why do you have to test it again today?"

"This proposition is too difficult, sir."

Li Shao looked down at the proposition, thought for a while, then picked up the brush and started to write. The brushwork is powerful, majestic and majestic, with a slightly blunt hidden front, and a subtleness that cannot be ignored.

Bai Moqian was shocked by Li Shao.

He has seen Li Shao write many times, but his handwriting is just like his own, indifferent and lazy. Bai Moqian always thought that Li Shao was not interested in anything. Until now, he saw Li Shao who was fifteen or sixteen years old. ——The brilliance in the eyes, the vigorous handwriting, and the embroidered articles, Bai Moqian realized after a while that the seemingly indifferent Li Shao was once a prince and grandson who scolded Fang Qiu and was full of vigor. He could have traveled across the Central Plains like King Wen of Chu.

What exactly did Li Shao go through that made him change from a noble second prince to a big disciple of Xiaoyaomen in Wushan, and he himself became more and more indifferent?

Bai Moqian remained silent, looking around inadvertently, and saw the man standing at the door.

The man wore a crown and was dressed in an elaborate royal costume. He was already past his age, but the aura of a king in his body was not diminished by half because of his weakness.At this time, his gaze was on the eldest prince who was sitting beside Li Shao. The room was full of young princes, the men only looked at the eldest prince from the beginning to the end, and the doting in their eyes was about to overflow.

Bai Moqian's eyes flickered slightly, and he vaguely guessed some reasons.

Li Shao was the first to finish writing the article. He put down the pen, blew on the wet ink marks on the rice paper, got up and was about to hand in the paper when he was interrupted by a deep voice——

"Shaoer, bring it here, and the widow will personally review it."

The man walked into the study, lifted his robe, sat down on the couch, and waved to Li Shao.

The princes who were working hard in the room were obviously frightened by their father's sudden inspection. They stood up in a hurry and saluted the man one after another.

"Answer the paper calmly, there is no need to salute." The man waved his hand, and his tone could not be refuted.

Li Shao lowered his eyes, glanced at his article, hesitated for a while, then walked up to the man, handed the answer sheet in front of the man, and saluted respectfully, "my son greets the father."

A surge of joy mixed with anticipation welled up in his heart, Bai Moqian pursed his thin lips, this was what he felt Li Shao's mood at this time.

Which child in the world does not want to be appreciated by his father?Who doesn't want his father to see his talents and abilities?

Li Shao lowered his head slightly, he stood quietly beside the man, anxiously waiting for his father's comment on his article.

The man finished reading carefully, showing a gratified smile, he patted Li Shao on the shoulder, laughed a few times and said: "'The world is bustling, which is a word for profit, so the princes united, fought for the city and expanded their troops, all in The phrase "communication of interests" penetrates into it, wonderful! Wonderful!"

Li Shao curled his lips, his eyes were bright, as if the stars were all over the sky calmly, shining with passion and pride for the establishment of unprecedented great achievements.

However, what the man said next made Li Shao's hands and feet go cold instantly.

His father, in front of all the princes, took his hand and solemnly shook hands with the eldest prince. He said: "From now on, Shaoer will do his best to assist Moer and become his right-hand man. Moer has A younger brother like you will definitely be able to build our Mo country into a powerful country in the Central Plains that can compete with Chu!"

Assist.

Assist Brother Wang.

It turned out that all the admiration his father had for him was that he could assist his brother to ascend the throne.

Then what are you?He is also the son of his father, so he is not qualified to be the king of the Mo country?

He couldn't remember how many times his father had said to himself, "You must help Brother Wang well", he really didn't understand why he had to Resigned to help a brother who is not as capable as himself?

King Mo continued to speak loudly: "The other princes should also try their best to assist Mo'er, brothers are of one mind, so that I can rest assured that Mo'er will be handed over to you, and Mo'er can gallop across the Central Plains with your assistance."

Li Shao's expression dimmed, this time, he finally felt completely chilled towards King Mo, those lofty ambitions were thrown to the ground time and time again by King Mo, and it was so broken that it was hard to pick it up.

He withdrew his hand and slowly tore up the article he had written in front of everyone. After that, he bowed his sleeves to King Mo and said, "My son is determined to practice in the mountains and fields, and assisting brother Wang is a matter of Guozuo. I am afraid I can't bear it." This task."

Li Shao has been self-willed twice in his life, once when he was 15 years old and personally tore up his ambitions and ambitions, and once when he went to Qiongbi and fell to hell for Bai Moqian.

When Bai Moqian opened his eyes again, his cheeks were wet and his eyes were red and swollen from crying. He raised his sleeves to wipe away the tears, and turned to look at Li Shao who was sitting beside him drinking tea silently.

Li Shao said lightly: "My mother is the eldest princess of the state of Chu. At that time, the state of Chu was besieged on all sides. The general Qu Chengfeng was defeated. In the first battle of Chu Qing, nearly [-] people were killed or injured in the state of Chu. country to form an alliance and marry his sister to the country of Mexico."

"The lords are fighting for hegemony, spies are everywhere, and the monarchs of various countries are suspicious by nature. They would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let one go. Father, he has never really accepted me and my mother. Among all the princes, only Li Mo is the one he trusts the most. The presence."

Bai Moqian's eyes flickered.

It turns out that Li Shao's indifference has never been self-proclaimed nobility, but the helplessness after the destruction of ambition and pride. Xuanjizi said that he has nothing to rely on, but in fact he has nowhere to rely on.

If it wasn't for this investigation about Zhen Chong, Bai Moqian might never have the chance to see Li Shao like this.

Li Shao smashed these past events into pieces for a long time, and watched the dynasties change and the country change masters calmly.

Bai Moqian stepped forward and hugged him tightly, his voice choked with sobs, he opened his mouth, wanting to say something, and when the words came to his lips, he realized that the silent company at this time was the best comfort.

Li Shao hugged Bai Moqian for a while, patted him on the back, and said, "Okay, okay, life has passed for more than 2000 years, and Li Mo has been reincarnated thousands of times. Reincarnation in the world, watching the wind and rain in the Six Dynasties, you have already seen through what should be seen through."

Bai Moqian nodded heavily, he let go of Li Shao, sat down on the soft cushion beside him, lowered his head and pondered for a while and said in confusion: "Strange, you are Li Mo's younger brother, and Li Shuo and Liche belong to the royal family of Li Mo. Your descendants, they are separated from you by countless generations, why did Li Che call you 'Uncle Huang'? The Li Mo clan overthrew the rule of the Chu Dynasty, and the emperor's mother/ancestor traced back to the source, so it is not Li Che's turn to call you 'Uncle Huang' 'ah?"

Hearing this, Li Shao snorted coldly and said: "It's just asking for a high-sounding reason for the change of master. For more than 2000 years, the Mo Li clan has multiplied for many generations. It is still unclear whether it is still the Li clan of the Mo country. gone."

Bai Moqian nodded, he raised his eyes, and saw a bright moon shining far away in the night sky outside the window, and he really answered the sentence - life is endless, and the moon looks similar every year.

He sighed, "Senior brother, I want to set off for Mobei tomorrow. Someone tried his best to involve you and me. I'd like to see what 'old affairs' he wants us to find out."

Li Shao lifted the lid of the cup, brushed the tea foam aside, and took a sip of the tea, "I'll accompany you if you want to go."
