blame me for attacking

Zhao Xun's request made Liu An feel very relieved.

However, this matter is by no means as simple as it seems on the surface. Zhao Xun is a native of Daxia after all. If he is asked to lead the army, even if he trusts Zhao Xun, others may not.

"If the people of the Great Xia heard what the Third Prince said, I don't know how they would feel." Liu Jing stood outside the door at some point and listened to Zhao Xuncai's words.

"I only said that I wanted to fight for Li Yue, but I didn't say that I wanted to occupy Daxia's land. I have a clear conscience for the people. I don't care what they think of me." Zhao Xun said.

"Facing your former comrades on the battlefield, can you fight them with a knife?" Liu Jing asked again.

Zhao Xun sneered and said: "Those who are loyal to me will never fight with me. For the rest, I will cut off their heads without blinking an eye. I'm afraid that Governor Liu may have misunderstood me, I think I am not a loyal person, my few loyalty to Great Xia has already been exhausted by them themselves."

He came to Dayu as a hostage since he was a child, and after returning to Daxia, he fought for Daxia for several years. In the end, his colleagues personally abandoned him on the battlefield and wanted to put him to death.

No matter who it is, it is reasonable to lead troops to crusade in person.Repaying grievances with virtue has never been Zhao Xun's life creed, and he is not the kind of person who will swear to death for foolish loyalty because of his status.

His life will only be fought for what is worthy of others.

Moreover, if Dayu fought Daxia this time, it would only be to teach Daxia a lesson, not to encroach on the opponent's land, so the battle would only be at the border and would not harm the people too much.

For so many years, all the wars in Dayu were aimed at consolidating the border defense. Even if some small affiliated countries were conquered, it was a business of your own accord. This is probably one of the reasons why Zhao Xun was willing to fight.

Liu Jing admired the words, and said: "This is the first battle after His Majesty's personal conquest. The battle can be smaller, but it must be won beautifully. This time I will personally lead the troops to the North Defense, and you will follow me when the time comes."

Zhao Xun was taken aback when he heard the words, he didn't expect Liu Jing to agree so easily.

Liu An on the side didn't seem to have expected Liu Jing's reaction, but he and Liu Jing had been together for a long time, and the two had already had a tacit understanding, so they didn't raise any doubts.Since Liu Jing made such a decision, there must be Liu Jing's reason.

Liu An said to Zhao Xun: "You don't need to worry about the Ministry of War and the courtiers, but you have to take care of your Majesty's side, and don't make him feel unhappy." Zhao Xun nodded hurriedly upon hearing this.

"That child looks ignorant, but he actually has a serious heart, especially when he treats you... I think you should understand in your heart." Liu Anyu said earnestly.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xun solemnly agreed, and then left.

After leaving Liu's residence, Zhao Xun did not return to the palace immediately, but wandered around the capital for half a day, and did not return to the palace until sunset.

Fu Xi was a caring person, and specially found a servant Zhao Xun knew to wait at the gate of the palace. When Zhao Xun came back, he said something to Zhao Xun, and Zhao Xun responded and went to the Hall of Ninghe.

Li Yue didn't go to court today, and some papers that needed his review were sent directly to the Hall of Ninghe.

Now Li Yue's complexion improved slightly, but he still looked a little sick.When Zhao Xun entered the hall and took a look, he felt a little distressed.Although it was only a short day of separation, he could feel that the young man was much haggard.

Li Yue didn't seem to expect him to come back so soon, and stared at him in a daze for a moment.

"What are you doing looking at me like that? If you don't see me for a day, you don't know each other?" Zhao Xun said.

"You... I thought you would come back after staying for a few days." Li Yue said.

"If I come back after staying for a few days, will you still talk to me?" Zhao Xun said with a smile.

"I don't care about you, who am I going to care about?" Li Yue said and put down the notebook in his hand.

Zhao Xun's heart felt warm when he heard the words, but at the same time he felt a little sad.Li Yue was always very sensible in front of him, never arrogant, even when he lost his temper, he would never be unreasonable.

Sometimes Zhao Xun even secretly expects that Li Yue can act like a rascal occasionally, but Li Yue never treats him that way.

"Come here and let me have a look." Zhao Xun stretched out his hand.

"What's interesting." Li Yue said.

"I heard from Fuxi that he caught a cold last night?" Zhao Xun asked.

"It's been done long ago." Li Yue was afraid that he would worry, so he hurriedly said.

Zhao Xun had to put down his hand that had been stretched out for a long time, and said, "Don't you know how to take this opportunity to act like a spoiled child to me?"

Li Yue laughed: "A big man, what's there to be hypocritical about?"

"Well, that's my hypocrisy." After Zhao Xun finished speaking, he hugged Li Yue and said, "After I left the palace last night, I regretted it very much. I kept thinking about what to do if you got angry."

"Really?" Li Yue asked him.

"Really." Zhao Xun nodded.

Li Yue said guiltily: "It's all my fault, I shouldn't lose my temper with you."

Zhao Xun hurriedly said: "It's my fault, I shouldn't just leave. I couldn't sleep last night, thinking in my heart that I wish I could climb over the wall and come in to find you overnight."

"You'll coax me. If it's true, why did you delay coming back so late today?" Li Yue asked.

"Because I went to buy you some good things." Zhao Xun said.

After saying that, he took out a white jade wrench from his pocket, and put the wrench into Li Yue's hand.

"I didn't bring much money with me this time, so I didn't find any good things," Zhao Xun said.

Li Yue grew up in the palace since he was a child, and he has seen all kinds of good objects. Naturally, what he cares about is not the price of the object, but Zhao Xun's heart.Anyway, this is the first thing that Zhao Xunzheng gave him seriously, so the meaning is naturally different.

"It's a bit big." Li Yue put it on and said.

"This is mine, so it's a bit bigger." Zhao Xun said.

Li Yue took Zhao Xun's hand and put it on, it was just right.

"This is yours." Zhao Xun pulled out a piece of red thread from his neck, and tied an identical finger on it, but it was indeed smaller when he looked carefully.

"I'll try." After Li Yue said, he stretched out his hand and tried it, and it was indeed his own size.

He approached Zhao Xun, looked carefully at the finger puller, and found that there were characters engraved inside, the one on Zhao Xun's neck was engraved with the character "Yue", while the one in his hand was engraved with the character "Xun".

"Is there... engraved your and my name?" Li Yue asked.

"Well, do you like it?" Zhao Xun asked.

The boy nodded again and again: "I like it, but why do you want to give me yours?"

"Because, when we are not by each other's side, this finger can accompany each other, so it is equivalent to not being separated." Zhao Xun said.

The young man's face changed instantly when he heard the words, the face that was originally full of smiles was replaced by a touch of coldness.When Zhao Xun saw it, he couldn't help but tighten his heart, but he still held the young man with his arms and did not let go.

"You sent me a finger just to coax me to let you go back?" Li Yue's eyes were red, obviously annoyed: "If you really want to leave, tell me that you don't want me anymore, otherwise I won't let you go .”

After the boy finished speaking, he patted the wrench into Zhao Xun's hand.

Zhao Xun looked at the wrench in his hand and said, "I don't want you, who do I want?"

"Zhao Xun, you bastard! You know what I think in my heart, but I don't know what you think at all. You will coax me with good words all day long, and you know I like you, so you come to goug me all day long." Heart, don't think I don't know, you treat me..." The young man didn't want to continue talking, he just couldn't stop panting.

"How do I treat you?" Zhao Xun asked.

The young man looked up at him and asked, "Do you love me more, or..."

"Li Yue!" Zhao Xun stretched out his hands to hold his face and said, "I won't coax you this time, nor will I lie to you, I will tell you everything, if you won't let me go, I won't go."

The boy's eyes lit up: "Are you serious?"

Zhao Xundao: "Believe it or not, I can't bear you just as much as you can't bear me."

Hearing this, the young man finally calmed down a bit.Zhao Xun simply confessed to Li Yue his plan and the matter of going to Liu's mansion today.After all, Li Yue didn't understand everything now, how could he not understand what Zhao Xun was thinking.

It was just for him to accept it suddenly, but he was still a little reluctant.

"You're finished, I won't let you go." Li Yue said.

Zhao Xun laughed: "I haven't finished yet."

He continued: "I am Da Xia's proton, and that's how you announced it to the world when you picked me up. If my identity is not resolved, no matter when in the future, I will not be able to justifiably follow you."

"Can a fight solve it?" Li Yue said.

"Yes." Zhao Xun said: "I know what you are worried about, I can guarantee that I will come back safely, and it will not exceed half a year."

"Half a year is too long." Li Yue said.

"Three months." Zhao Xun said.

Li Yue finally softened his attitude when he heard this.He knew better than anyone else how difficult the road ahead for him and Zhao Xun would be. Moreover, Zhao Xun was a man with his own ideas, so it was impossible for him to force Zhao Xun to do everything according to his will.

Besides, in Zhao Xun's current situation, he really has no better way than to fight hard.But if it is really hard resistance, how long can he carry it?

Zhao Xun took Li Yue's hand, put the wrench back, and said in a low voice: "Trust me this time, I will definitely be able to return to you whole."

"Let me think again." Li Yue said.

As soon as the young man said this, Zhao Xun knew that the other party agreed.

That night, neither Zhao Xun nor Li Yue mentioned this matter again.Li Yue silently found a strong red thread, imitating Zhao Xun's method, and tied Zhao Xun's finger ring around his neck.

In the middle of the night, the boy couldn't sleep, so he suddenly said to Zhao Xun, "This finger is so big, when I wear it to sleep, it hurts my bones."

Zhao Xun turned over and hugged the young man and said, "When it hurts, you just think about me, and then you will know that I may also be awakened by the pain."

Zhao Xun's body was clinging to the boy, their hearts beat intertwined, and they both felt satisfied and happy.

The boy smiled, and the haze in his heart suddenly dissipated.

His Zhao Xun was originally Shura on the battlefield, so it would be too wronged to keep people trapped in this deep palace.As long as Zhao Xun can come back properly, let's go.
