Through the palace of the king of subjugation

Yongxiang is the residence of servants in the palace. The white gull has been here for so long, and the only time he set foot here was when he first came here, when he followed Xiao Yao.

He is not very familiar with this road, but fortunately, Yongxiang is no better than Guangming Palace, and there are no strict guards, so everything is going smoothly.

The dark Yongxiang was silent, and he used his previous memory to touch the remote firewood house in the depths of Yongxiang where he saw Xiaoyao and Xiaotao last time.

He didn't know anything about Yongxiang except the firewood room not far away; there were a lot of small palace maids living here, and even a grown man like him was not suitable to inquire about the house on the wall...

In fact, I don't know where to find Su Nanny at all, besides this point, Su Nanny should have rested a long time ago.

Bai Ou laughed at himself, it's not that he didn't think about such a situation before he came, but he couldn't stay in the room just now.

He walked lightly to the door of the remote firewood room, staring blankly at the closed wooden door.

Before I knew it, half a year had passed.

A year of hot summer for winter snow.

He seemed to be able to hear Xiao Tao's terrified sobs from inside the door.

Why did Li Yu treat Xiaotao like that?

What would have happened to Xiaotao if she hadn't stepped in at the beginning?

And Madam Su.

Why did Li Yu ask Nanny Su, who was in love with her grandparents and grandchildren, to be a respectful old palace maid?

The white gull's dislike of the little emperor before did not come from the history books entirely. These were all reasons in the past, but they are not true now.

He can be sure that the little emperor is not that kind of person.

But why did Li Yu do that?

Looking at the wooden door, he carefully recalled the details at that time——

At that time, the wooden door was tied with an iron chain on the outside nose, and a rusty lock was hung. Xiao Tao opened the door inside, but the door was caught by the chain, and only a wide crack was exposed...

chain... lock...

Bai Gu suddenly realized that everything before had disappeared.

The door was closed tightly, and even the windows were battened shut, but the chains and padlocks were gone...

The door was apparently bolted from the inside.

Who's in there?

Suspicion suddenly arose in Bai Gu's heart, he walked forward, leaned close to the crack of the door, and saw a very dim fire burning inside.

He stood up straight and looked around, and was about to climb up the window and go to the room to check in the old way, but the dilapidated wooden door made a soft "creak" sound, and was pulled open from inside.

"Bai...Master Bai?"

Bai Gu lowered his head and saw Xiao Yao staring at him with wide eyes in shock, and then there was another man's shout from inside the door——

"Who!"

Where there is Xiao Yao, there should be Li Yu, but this voice is deep and thick, with a murderous intent; although most of the time Li Yu's voice is also cold and cruel, but it is not such a killing breath, and it has been heard for a long time , he could find that youthful look in Li Yu's voice.

This voice was clearly not the little emperor.

With his excellent eyesight, Bai Gu caught a flash of a star in the dimness of the sky and the ground; he suddenly raised his head, looked past Xiao Yao in front of him, and saw a sleeve arrow pointing in his direction, piercing the wind and flying away. Come.

The situation in front of me is as urgent as a spark, and life and death are only a moment away.

Bai Gu didn't have time to think about it, he pressed Xiao Yao in front of him, and dodged the deadly sleeve arrow.

"careful!"

The moment he lowered his head and lowered his body, there was an almost broken exclamation from the room.

He didn't stop moving his whole body, only at the last moment before he lowered his head, he followed the direction of the voice out of the corner of his eye and saw the little emperor standing beside a dim oil lamp——

His fists were clenched tightly, his eyes were about to split.

While the white gull dodged the fatal blow, behind Li Yu, a man in black leaped out with a long sword out of its sheath.

"No!" Li Yu grabbed the man in black's upper arm and shook his head, "Let him go..."

"Your Majesty! The villain recognizes him, he belongs to the Empress Dowager!" The black man didn't want to say much, he shook off Li Yu's hand, stepped forward, and thrust out the long sword in his hand.

On the other side, the white gull had just got up, and before he had time to take a look at Xiao Yao who had been pushed down by him, the cold light of the long sword was close at hand.

He dodged sideways, and the blade rested on his neck impartially.

Then suddenly, it stopped.

"Your Majesty?" The man in black held his sword and fixed himself, he didn't turn his head when he spoke, and still stared at the white gull.

The white gull saw the disbelief in the eyes of the other party; then, he saw the slightly thin figure of the little emperor stepping sideways from behind the burly and strong man in black——

"I said—" Li Yu looked up at Bai Gu, and said in a deep voice, "Let him go."

"Your Majesty!" The frightened Xiao Yao struggled to get up from the ground, and ran to Li Yu's side nervously, "Are you alright?"

Li Yu shook his head, his eyes seemed to tremble a little, and he was still looking at the white gull.

Bai Ou frowned, and seemed to suddenly understand the words in the little emperor's eyes through Xiao Yao's words; he also shook his head at Li Yu in a strange way, as if to indicate that he was fine.

Then he looked at the little emperor and let out a long breath.

"This man may have listened to all our conversations, Your Majesty! Do you still remember what Master Chen said to you?" Before everyone could catch their breath, the man in black spoke again, "As a king, we must avoid the benevolence of women! "

"But he—" Li Yu still stared at Bai Ou, as if he wanted to gain some kind of affirmation, "It's not the empress dowager."

"Why is Your Majesty so sure?" The man in black gritted his teeth and said, "The villain only knows that in this world, only the dead can best keep secrets."

After Bai Gu heard this, he could sort out his thoughts from the chaotic situation.

The man in black should be one of Chen Yu's men, plotting something with the little emperor; no matter in the historical records or his recent experience, the answer is obvious——

The inspection of water conservancy in the south of the Yangtze River has changed.

The last time the little emperor was hesitant to speak, and finally he didn't say anything, but now it has developed to the point where Chen Yu sent people into the palace at all costs, it is very difficult to think about it.

"Zhen—" Li Yu replied to the man in black, still looking at the white gull, with an indescribable, young stubbornness, and said softly, "I just know."

Now that he had made up his mind, a solution to the situation quickly came to his mind, and Bai Gu shook his head at Li Yu again, signaling that he didn't need to continue talking.

Their eyes looked at each other from beginning to end, as if they could penetrate this complicated situation.

But when he was about to speak, a slightly hunched figure was reflected in the dim candlelight in the room, tremblingly walking towards the door from the room.

Su Momo's legs and feet were obviously inconvenient, she fell down after only two steps, almost half kneeling and half crawling towards this side.

"Mommy!"

When Li Yu heard the noise behind him, he turned around and immediately stepped forward to help him. As soon as he took a step, he turned around vigilantly, clenched the dagger in his hand.

During this movement, the handle of the delicate dagger in Li Yu's hand was exposed, and the gem ornaments hanging on it reflected the flickering candles in the house, which dazzled Bai Gu's eyes.

Only then did he understand why the man in black suddenly stopped Jianfeng just now.

The little emperor's dagger hit the back of the man in black.
