blame me for attacking

The autumn night is getting deeper.

The dim candlelight illuminated the two people on the couch, and Li Yue lay on Liu Li's arm, a little drowsy.

"If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have taken you to Beijiang to find Zhao Xun." Liu Li said angrily.

Li Yue turned over, stretched out his hand and pinched Liu Li's face, and said, "What does this have to do with Zhao Xun? Why are you acting like a sour little daughter-in-law lately?"

"I'm just a bitter and jealous person, as long as you know it," Liu Li said.

"Okay, okay, can I just treat you well in the future?" Li Yue coaxed.

The two were lying side by side, and there was a feeling of parting for a while.Li Yue was about to fall asleep, but now Liu Li stopped talking, and for some reason he couldn't fall asleep.

"Since you followed me, we have never been separated." Li Yue said, "I'm really not used to not having you by my side in the future."

"Before you leave, it's still too late to regret it," Liu Li said.

Hearing this, Li Yue turned to look at him, and Liu Li also turned to look at him.The eyes of the two met, they were so close to Chi Chi, Liu Li couldn't help being startled, he rarely saw a trace of firmness and determination in Li Yue's eyes.

It seems that this little ancestor has made up his mind.

"You want to be in charge that much?" Liu Li asked.

Li Yue sighed and said: "Whether I am in charge or not, you should not continue to follow me. Everyone knows that you are the son of the husband, and your father still holds the military power in his hands. Even if we do nothing, As I get older, there will always be people who are taboo."

Li Yue was fine when he was young, but now that he is at this age, those people in the court do not know how closely their eyes are fixed.Even if he is not in charge, sooner or later the Liu family will become a thorn in the side of those people. Li Yue does not want the Liu family to be affected too early.

"My father will accept your kindness." Liu Li said.

"It doesn't matter if they take it or not, as long as you take it." Li Yue said.

Liu Li looked at him with a smile, and asked, "I took it, so what good will you do me?"

Li Yue sat up and looked at him, and said, "What do you want?"

"I want... you... be safe and sound," Liu Li said.

"Okay! I agree, and I will keep myself safe." Li Yue said.

The two looked at each other with sadness in their hearts, but forced smiles on their faces.

Liu Li took out a short dart made of black iron from his arms, put it in Li Yue's hand and said, "You keep this short dart. If you want to see me, hand him over to the dark guard. But Under normal circumstances, don't let the hidden guards show up easily."

Li Yue took the short dart and put it away carefully.Then he chatted with Liu Li and Hu Tianhai for half a night, from the time they first met, to today.It wasn't until dawn that the two of them felt sleepy, so they slept on the same bed with their clothes on.

The next morning, Li Yue got up early to bid farewell to Liu An.

Liu Li was still asleep, but he woke up when Li Yue moved.The young man was careful not to wake him up, so he couldn't bear to let him down, so he simply closed his eyes and continued to pretend to be asleep.

When Liu Li got up, Li Yue had already led people out of Lizhou City.

Liu Li sat by the bed in a daze, his heart felt empty as if a piece had been taken away by someone.He couldn't say why, the trip to Beijiang took only more than a month, but he felt that Li Yue had become different from before.

The ignorant and innocent boy he knew seemed to be just an illusion.The real Li Yue was much smarter than he imagined, even more decisive than Liu Li.

But he was also certain in his heart that the Li Yue he knew was not an illusion, but just a certain part of the boy.He was used to the young man who relied on him everywhere, so he couldn't accept Li Yue who was so independent and assertive.

It was unimaginable that the other party could leave him so easily.

He thought he could be with the other party for such a long time.

"Liu Li, are you up yet?" Liu An's voice came from outside the door.

Liu Li got up and went to open the door for the other party, only to see Liu An holding a delicate wooden box and put it in his hand: "The things His Majesty left for you before he left."

Liu Li hugged the box and kept rubbing it, but he didn't open it right away.

"Father, did you already know?" Liu Li asked.

"Know what?" Liu An asked after entering the door and sitting down, looking at him.

Liu Li walked to the other side and sat down, still holding the wooden box in his hand, and said, "He came to Beijiang just for today, right? He had already planned to leave me behind, that's why he treated me earlier. So close, I thought..."

"If he knows that you use such words, he will probably be sad." Liu An said: "He has always regarded you as an elder brother, but ask yourself, can you be worthy of being this elder brother?"

A 17-year-old boy can afford to let go like this, but he is still here with his son and daughter.But this kind of thing, how can people let it go?

"Yue'er is innocent and innocent, but he has a rare transparency and decisiveness. Many things are extremely complicated in the eyes of others, but they become very simple in his eyes." Liu An.

In the past, Liu An had doubted more than once that maybe Li Yue was really not suitable to be the emperor, but now Liu An was a little shaken.He even felt that Li Yue might become a better emperor than his father or even his grandfather.

It's just that this process will not be smooth, and I don't know if the boy can hold on.

Liu Li was silent without saying a word. Liu An looked at him for a long time and sighed, and said: "He won't let you follow, he just wants to turn you from the bright place to the dark place. As long as you don't show your face, stay in the capital and stay in the dark place." Lizhou is no different."

"You mean, I can follow to the capital?" Liu Li asked.

Liu An raised his eyebrows with a smile, and said: "Your son is too big to stay, go see your uncle before you leave, he has something for you to bring to Zhao Xun."

Bring something to Zhao Xun?

What could it be?medicine?

After Liu An finished speaking, he got up and went out, and Liu Li suddenly felt relieved.He opened the box in his hand, and inside was a brand new set of short darts, a total of twelve, each engraved with a pattern of a dragon's claw.

Liu Li studied martial arts with a teacher since he was a child, and later specialized in training and cultivating hidden guards, and he himself was the best guard.Although he has been following Li Yue in the open all these years, his best weapon is still the short dart.

Li Yuedao knew what he liked.

This little ancestor can really make people happy!

Since the team escorting the Third Prince of Daxia left Lizhou City, they have sent more people to follow, and the accompanying people are all elites personally selected by the governor of Lizhou.In addition to the guards in the open, it is not known how many hidden guards there are in the dark.

When the team approached the capital, the imperial army greeted them out of the city early.

Sitting in the carriage, Li Yue looked at the people welcoming him from a distance, and said to Zhao Xun beside him, "I will follow the people into the city quietly first, and you will go into the city with the escorting team. When the time comes, the people from Honglu Temple I will arrange you according to the rules."

Li Yue's departure from the palace has not been made public. Although everyone in the court is tacitly aware of it, it is still necessary to cover it up, otherwise it will damage the image of the monarch.

Zhao Xun nodded, his face looked very tired from the long journey.

Seeing this, Li Yue was a little worried, and said: "According to my opinion, it is safer for you to live in the palace. There is an imperial physician in the palace, so it is good to take care of your body."

"I'm not that fragile, so don't worry." Zhao Xundao: "Besides, I didn't know how much trouble I would cause you when I came to the capital this time. You must not cause rumors for me again."

Li Yue said a little unhappy: "Don't say it, every time you say this, you will be offended, I don't know what to say. Fortunately, according to Dayu's law, protons will not be treated harshly , so even if you live outside, no one will treat you badly."

Zhao Xun nodded when he heard the words, and only told the other party not to worry, Li Yue reluctantly got out of the carriage.

At this moment, there were people from the imperial army waiting outside the carriage. When they saw Li Yue coming down, they immediately led the horse to help him get on the horse, and then led him away from the escorting team quietly.

The commander of the Forbidden Army was named Zhao Qingming, and he and Liu Li had a life-and-death relationship in private, but few people knew about their relationship on the surface.Therefore, Li Yue's safety in the capital is basically guaranteed.

The hidden guards who had been following Li Yue stayed here for a short while, and then followed the imperial guards to guard Li Yue, and headed towards the palace. Only one person stayed behind, and turned to stare at Zhao Xun's carriage. .

The team escorting the protons did not enter Beijing until after Li Yue and the others had left. As soon as they entered the city gate, officials from Honglu Temple came to hand over the escorting soldiers.

After that, Zhao Xun was handed over to Honglu Temple as the hostage of the enemy country.

The carriage was driving on the streets of the capital, Zhao Xun looked at the scene outside the window through the curtain of the carriage, feeling very emotional for a moment.

"Third Brother, where will they place us?" Zhao Xiaowu asked.

"Honglu Temple has a special guest house in the capital, which is used to receive or accommodate envoys from other countries, and the protons will also be placed there." Zhao Xun said.

Zhao Xiaowu asked again after hearing the words: "That's good, I was worried that they would put us in a cell."

"That's not true, the officials of Honglu Temple will still be very polite to protons." Zhao Xun said with a sneer.

He was polite on the surface, but as for what happened in private, only Zhao Xun knew.What kind of harsh treatment he suffered here ten years ago, I am afraid others will not know, but even today, he himself still remembers it clearly.

The dark guard who followed Zhao Xun followed all the way to Honglu Temple, but they just watched Zhao Xun from a distance and didn't come near.A moment later, someone approached quietly, the dark guard frowned, and turned the short dart in his hand slightly, the dragon claw imprint on the short dart was clearly visible, it was the one Li Yue gave Liu Li.

The dark guard turned his head and saw that the person who came was his subordinate, so he put away the short dart.The subordinate walked over and whispered in his ear: "Master, Your Majesty has returned to the palace safely."

"Understood, you find someone to guard here together, don't let anything go wrong here." The hidden guard spoke, but it was Liu Li's voice.

Liu Li reached out and touched the thing in his bosom, which He Zhu entrusted him to bring to Zhao Xun.But he didn't intend to give the item to the other party at the moment, whether Zhao Xun can use this item is still unknown.

He wanted to see how capable this Zhao Xun was.
