The weather is just right, and it is autumn again, the leaves are falling, and the weather has turned cooler.Since that day, more than a month has passed, and Li Jiancheng has never spoken to Li Shimin alone, but the crown prince Qin Wang made a move in the prince's mansion, and the news that Qin Wang hurt his arm spread quickly.There was an uproar in Chang'an City. After all, the relationship between the two young masters of the Li family is good, and this is known to everyone.Although the Tiance Mansion and the Prince's Mansion have always been evenly matched, there is some friction underneath, and everyone is well aware of the subtleties, but because of the relationship between Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin, these struggles have never come to the fore, but since that day, the two of them don't know why Break up, things seem to have a turn for the better.

Concubine Shixuan sent news from the south that Du Fuwei had broken with Fu Gongyou and was determined to join the Li family, and was on his way.When the news was handed over, Li Jiancheng was playing chess at Hou Xibai's mansion. He held black, and Hou Xibai held white. The two sides were stuck together, inseparable.Bai Zi formed a long dragon, seemingly menacing, but every vital point was firmly restrained by Hei Zi, unable to move easily.

"His Royal Highness, there is news from the south that Du Fuwei has surrendered." The person who sent the letter had a happy face and moved closer to Li Jiancheng.

Li Jiancheng raised his hand to signal him to be quiet, then twisted a piece, and put it down seven inches from the white dragon, cutting off the original momentum from it.

Hou Xibai frowned, rubbing the white chess pieces in his hands for a while, and finally stopped, "Forget it, it was Xibai who lost. Jiancheng has a lot in his heart, this game of chess is no longer a matter of chess skills."

The corners of Li Jiancheng's mouth curled slightly, showing a smile, then turned to the messenger and said, "Tell the news to the emperor and all the soldiers of the three armies, and arrange a banquet. When Mr. Du and Miss Shi come over, I will cleanse them up."

The messenger left in a hurry, and Li Jiancheng messed up the chess game casually, "Xi Bai don't have to be too persistent, the so-called hills and valleys in my heart are just fighting for power and profit, and taking everything as a straw dog is not as detached as Xi Bai's state of mind. Strong, but lacking in ease.”

"Jiancheng has become more and more sentimental these days." Hou Xibai stared at Li Jiancheng's calm eyes, and said suddenly, with a strange expression on his face.

"Sentimental? Xibai was joking." Li Jiancheng laughed, picked up the chess pieces and returned them to the chess box, took another sip of tea, and then slowly stood up, "I'm afraid I won't have the chance to enjoy the moonlight with Xibai again today." .”

Hou Xibai sighed softly, knowing that Li Jiancheng would be busy with Du Fuwei's return to the Li Clan, so he nodded lightly, "I know about you, but when you are free, don't forget my old friend."

Li Jiancheng nodded, and then drifted away.

Looking at this man's back, Hou Xibai couldn't help but cast a greedy look, and felt that if this man hadn't been born in such a troubled family, he might be able to travel with him, travel all over the world, and stay with him for a lifetime.However, if you live in Chang'an for a long time, it doesn't matter. Hou Xibai smiled, but the next moment, a gray robe floated from nowhere, staring at him coldly, and the strong murderous aura made him feel cold all over.

Hou Xibai's face turned pale, he staggered to his feet, and knelt on the ground with a puff, with a trace of fear, joy, and doubt in his eyes...

"Master!"

Shi Zhixuan didn't speak, just continued to look at Hou Xibai coldly, if Yang Xuyan is the successor of all his dark sides, then Hou Xibai is probably the sunny side of Shi Zhixuan.He hadn't seen this apprentice for seven or eight years. When he saw him now, he saw that the youthful young man in the past had become such a handsome and suave Mr. Guijie, exactly the same as him back then.

"You like Li Jiancheng?" Shi Zhixuan asked in a calm voice.

Hou Xibai didn't dare to raise his head, trembling slightly, finally nodded, and whispered, "Yes."

"Stay away from him, otherwise, die." The murderous aura on Shi Zhixuan's body rose and then receded, causing cold sweat to break out on Hou Xibai's back. When he finally had the courage to raise his head, he realized that Shi Zhixuan had left without knowing when. up.

"Master, Xibai can't do it this time." Hou Xibai murmured in a low voice, he thought of the glimpse just now, seven or eight years didn't seem to have left many marks on Shi Zhixuan.He is still the same as before, and the years seem to be stingy with him even a wrinkle.But Shi Zhixuan's temperament seemed to have changed, he was strong and cold, standing there was like a nightmare.Hou Xibai sighed lightly, with a trace of melancholy in his eyes.

When Li Jiancheng returned to the Prince's Mansion, news came from the palace that Li Yuan summoned him to meet him, presumably to discuss Du Fuwei's matter.

Du Fuwei's deputy friend, Fu Gongyou, is a member of the Demon Sect. The two have gradually disagreed because of their disagreement.Long before Concubine Shixuan went south, Li Xiuning began to have frequent contacts with Du Fuwei, and things were almost the same. Afterwards, Concubine Shixuan came out again and finally persuaded Du Fuwei.At the same time, the forces of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling gradually developed, and with the assistance of Chai Shao, they became a force to be reckoned with.

Moreover, the unsolved case of Duke Yang’s treasure house is still spreading all over the world. Recently, there has been news that Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling will come to Guanzhong to hunt for treasures, making various forces ready to move even if they are afraid.

Li Jiancheng entered the palace, but halfway there he met Li Shimin who was also called into the palace.This is not a common thing. In recent days, under Li Yuan's intentional training, Li Jiancheng has started to deal with important military and political affairs. He has done these things in his previous life, so he is naturally handy and not very busy.But Li Shimin opened up his door to attract customers, and Tiance Mansion made it clear that it wanted to fight Li Jiancheng in the open, and its officials were frequently transferred.However, Li Yuan didn't seem to care about these things, and let the two sons continue to quarrel.

"It's been a long time, Your Highness the Prince." Seeing Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin raised the corners of his lips first, as a greeting, but his tone was very polite, almost unfamiliar.

Li Jiancheng glanced at him without saying a word, and went straight into the palace gate.

Du Fuwei's Jianghuai army is very powerful, and now being persuaded by Shi Feixuan to surrender, Li Yuan couldn't hide his excitement. After reading the letter sent back by Shi Feixuan repeatedly, he showed it to his two sons and said with a smile, " In a dozen days or so, Du Fuwei will enter Beijing with 15 Jianghuai troops under his command. I am going to let Li Zitong take over, and Du Fuwei himself will bring 200 attendants to Beijing. I have chosen the place to live. Alright, after a few days, when everyone cleans up, the prince will come and see him. This man is also a hero of the generation, so don't neglect him."

Li Jiancheng nodded, "I will do my best."

For Li Jiancheng, Du Fuwei naturally wanted to entertain him well. He had put a lot of effort into this person in his early years, just for the sake of Duke Yang's treasure house.Originally, he had planned to tell Li Shimin the location of Duke Yang's treasure house, and the two of them would work together to dig it out, but now that he and Li Shimin were in such a situation, he naturally wanted to leave a way out for himself.When Du Fuwei comes here, he will naturally contact him, find an opportunity to secretly dig out Duke Yang's treasure house, or maybe he can take the opportunity to cooperate with Kou Zhong...

"By the way, there is also the matter of Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling and Yang Gong's treasure house." Li Yuan frowned and said, mentioning Kou Zhong, Li Yuan is very upset now.Although at the beginning, Kou Zhong was kind to the Li family, but he poached the corner of the Li family, let Chai Shao defect to the young commander, and even divorced Li Xiuning, which really made the Li family feel ashamed.

"Father, don't worry, my son has already ordered to hand over the portraits of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling to the Imperial Army in the capital. As long as the two of them dare to set foot in Chang'an, we will find them. Unless..." Li Shimin said here, slightly After a pause, he looked at Li Jiancheng maliciously, "Unless someone cooperates with them."

Li Jiancheng's heart skipped a beat, he couldn't figure out whether Li Shimin was really so sensitive or he was playing it wrong, so he simply diverted the topic to other places, "I do have some personal friendship with Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, and we are sympathetic to each other, but we won't do anything that harms the interests of the Li family because of this. What's more, with Kou Zhong as a man, he doesn't even bother with this."

After hearing this, Li Shimin said, "Oh?" His voice was neutral and a little ambiguous.

Li Yuanwei just pretended not to know about the smell of gunpowder between the two, and ordered Li Shimin to search all the places in the capital that might be related to Yang Gong's treasure house, and then sent people to monitor all parts of Chang'an City, paying close attention to the activities of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling. trend.

The corners of Li Shimin's mouth curled slightly, and he said with a smile, "Father, don't worry, my son will definitely tell Kou Zhong and that Xu Ziling to go and never return."

After hearing this, Li Yuan was overjoyed, so he promised Li Shimin that if he could capture Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling alive and find Duke Yang's treasure house, he could ask his father for any reward.Li Shimin responded with a smile, and then left with Li Jiancheng.

"How is elder brother?" Leaving the palace gate, Li Shimin couldn't help asking softly, with a trace of restraint and forbearance in his voice.

"Not bad." Li Jiancheng gave him a squinting look, not knowing what Li Shimin was thinking.

Li Shimin laughed, and sighed softly, "It should be a good idea, I heard that you have been free recently and went to find Hou Xibai, often staying for a whole day."

Li Jiancheng raised his eyebrows, "So what?"

"It's nothing, but my brother still needs to remind my brother, don't forget, no matter what Hou Xibai said, he is also Shi Zhixuan's disciple."

"I have to think about my affairs myself, so you don't have to worry about Shimin." Li Jiancheng said, patted Li Shimin's shoulder lightly, turned and left.

Li Shimin looked at Li Jiancheng's back as he left, with a stern look in his eyes.
