The Way of the National Teacher

Princess Shanggu dragged them out of the cave and ran into Li Shilang and the other three in a short while.

After leaving the cave, they breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's wrong?" Chu Li asked, "Who is following us?"

As he was talking, he suddenly saw a head protruding from the entrance of the cave. When Chu Li saw it, his expression became even worse. It turned out to be King Wu!There is also a lama standing beside him.

King Wu looked them over, but he didn't find Helian Kuo.But the lama smiled, "My lord, Concubine Ming is here."

"exist?"

The lama nodded with a smile, and looked at He Lianqi who was held by Chu Li.

King Wu narrowed his eyes, he had naturally heard about the relationship between the national teacher and He Liankuo.So he stepped forward and said, "What a coincidence, this king came here to play, and unexpectedly met Princess Shanggu and the national teacher."

All of a sudden, the entrance of Gaxian Cave became lively, and the three groups, each with their own thoughts, settled down at the entrance of the cave as no one wanted to go down the mountain.

He Lianzhen was weak and cold, and they had already been in Gaxian Cave, and there was no danger, so Chu Li said, "Let's go to the cave to escape the cold."

Princess Shanggu said, "Just let King Wu and Li Shilang spend the night at the entrance of the cave. After all, it's inconvenient for a man and a widow to be alone." No one is allowed to come in and disturb my rest."

Chu Li sat cross-legged, not knowing what was going on, when the moonlight came in from the entrance of the cave, her mind woke up for a while, making her sober enough to meditate.

I don't know what stimulated the Deer Sword Soul in the body, and it was very peaceful.Chu Li was secretly happy, and planned to take this opportunity to force out the soul of the sword.

When she came into contact with the soul of the sword, the soul of the sword seemed to be stained with moonlight, calm and peaceful.There is no violence at all, on the contrary, there is a faint sense of benevolence and righteousness.Thinking about it, this deer knife was originally a knife of benevolence and righteousness, but it was too murderous and bloody, so too much resentment and hostility accumulated, and the knife soul covered up its light.

Chu Li felt that this knife soul seemed to have the meaning of becoming a Buddha and a demon with one thought.The Buddha and the demon were originally just a single thought, and the sword soul was trapped by something in this Ga fairy cave, or something washed away his hostility, and now he is much more obedient than before.Chu Li concentrating on introspection, trying to rescue the devoured spirit and force soul. In fact, most of her spirit has returned, and only force soul is still trapped on the sword soul.Chu Li tentatively wanted to take them back, but although the soul of the sword was obedient, it was not so easy to provoke.Although there was no explosion, You Jing was hooked out by Chu Li, but the soul of power was tightly wrapped around the soul of the sword, and it could not be pulled out at all.

Chu Li thought for a while, and came back one by one. It was rare for this sword soul to be so obedient.She kept pounding here and there, seemingly trying to pull Lihun, but in fact, it only took a moment for her energy to gather and pull out the ghost.At this moment, the soul of the sword neighed, causing Chu Li's blood to surge, and blood oozes from the corner of his mouth.

"Li'er!" Helian Kuo was protecting her all the time, seeing that Chu Li's face was pale but he couldn't hide his joy, Helian Kuo's heart fluttered.

"Senior Sister!" Chu Li hugged her, "Senior Sister!"

Helian Kuo comforted Chu Li, "I'm here, I'm here. What's wrong?"

"I miss you so much." Chu Li's chest was almost filled.Her eyes were full of tenderness, and her eyes were full of lingering affection.

Helian Kuo's heart skipped a beat, "Li'er, you..."

"I won!" Chu Li rubbed her cheek affectionately, "Senior Sister, I miss you so much..."

The eyes and voice were different.The long-lost... her Li'er, Helian Kui had a sore nose, and kissed her earlobe, "Li'er..."

Chu Li's body turned pale, his face flushed immediately, and he hid a little shyly, saying out of words, "Ah, it's dawn! I thought it was only a while ago."

He Liankuo grabbed her earlobe, "You look so shy, so cute."

"Senior Sister..." Chu Li's face turned redder, and he covered Helian Kuo's mouth in embarrassment, "Senior Sister, why... I just happened to be so bad-mouthed."

Helian Kuo smiled, his eyes were so tender that water almost dripped out.

Chu Li was paralyzed by her sight.

"I miss you too, ma'am." He Lian Kuo kissed her on the lips, Chu Li was like dynamite being ignited, he hugged He Lian Kuo tightly without knowing it, and rubbed her tightly in his arms.After a long while, Chu Li suddenly woke up and said, "Ah, where is Princess Shanggu!"

"Hey——" Helian poked her finger, "I only thought of Princess Shanggu until now, I should have finished watching it long ago!"

Chu Li was ashamed, and rubbed against Helian Kuo's arms, "I'll see it when I see it, I'm not afraid!"

Helian Kuo kissed the top of her head, "Princess Shanggu went out. It was not yet dawn at that time, so I don't know what to do."

Only then did Chu Li heave a sigh of relief, "It's a good thing I'm not here." She grabbed Helian Kuo's hand and put it to her lips, "Ma'am, I have wronged you."

"I'm not wronged." Helian Kuo looked at her softly, "There is nothing better than you being good."

There is an extra king of Wu outside, and Princess Shanggu feels that there are more and more variables in this trip.Compared with the crown prince, she could not trust the king of Wu more.Although King Wu is the younger brother of the short-lived Princess Nan'an, he is very insidious.Princess Shanggu loved to play with Princess Nan'an when she was young, but she never liked to be close to King Wu.For so many years, the only person Princess Shanggu trusted without reservation was Princess Nan'an who died young.

Speaking of which, the time when Princess Nan'an was still alive was the happiest time in Princess Shanggu's life.Princess Shanggu was nearly ten years younger than Princess Nan'an. At that time, Princess Shanggu was only four or five years old, and Princess Nan'an was already slim and dignified.Princess Shanggu looked up at the only imperial sister, enjoyed the tenderness and patience of relying on Princess Nan'an, and spent a carefree time.It's a pity that Princess Nan'an was 16 years old and died of illness not long after she got married.

Princess Shanggu, who was originally heartbroken because of Princess Nan'an's marriage, had not had time to heal her wounds when another thunderbolt came.

She was only six years old, and after losing her mother who loved her, she completely lost her elder sister who loved her dearly.

It was probably also from that time that Princess Shanggu preferred to hang out with women in the palace more and more, just looking for the familiar tenderness.It's a pity that no amount of similarity can bring back the feeling of the past.

Because of Princess Nan'an, even though Princess Shanggu knew that King Wu Tuobayu was never as peaceful as she appeared on the surface, she never said a word.Princess Nan'an is gone. Although Princess Shanggu doesn't admit it, she has been thinking about this love all the time, turning a blind eye to King Wu's secret viciousness.

Every time she sees King Wu, Princess Shanggu always thinks of her short-lived sister Huang. Although in the past so many years, Princess Shanggu no longer remembers what Princess Nanan looks like.

Princess Shanggu was disappointed, and called Li Shilang, "The prince has really gone back?"

Li Shilang nodded quickly.

Princess Shanggu said, "The situation here is complicated. I have something important to discuss with the crown prince. Li Shilang, you'd better think clearly before answering."

Li Shilang became embarrassed, and accidentally saw Princess Shanggu's fierce expression, Li Shilang's heart skipped a beat, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Princess, please come with me."

Princess Shanggu sneered, but the prince did not leave.Based on her understanding of the prince, Tuoba Huang would never leave easily if he couldn't see the result he wanted.

Tuoba Huang is on the side of the mountain, "Miss Huang."

"Prince, you know why I came."

Tuoba Huang stared at him for a while, "Sister Huang, do you really have a crush on that national teacher?"

"The national teacher is my friend."

Tuoba Huang sneered disdainfully, "Isn't Miss Huang joking? Are you friends with a pawn?"

Princess Shanggu said with a sullen face, "Anyway, she is my friend."

"Sister Huang, are you crazy again?" Tuoba Huang stepped forward to touch Princess Shanggu's forehead, "Chu Li will die sooner or later, I just moved the date earlier. Sister Huang, I am doing it for her own good. Otherwise , when the father does it, she will be ruined and be spit on by thousands of people, why not let her go now?"

Princess Shanggu's heart tightened, "Since you know that she is the emperor's pawn, how dare you mess with this game of chess?"

"Sister Huang, I'm helping her." Tuobahuang said, "At any rate, you still say that she is your friend, so as not to make her die even worse, isn't it?"

"No." Princess Shanggu clenched her fists and stared at Tuoba Huang, "Prince, you are not allowed to touch her."

Tuoba Huang looked at her in amazement, "Sister Huang, is it possible that you want to let her be killed by Emperor Father? You must know that letting her die in the hands of Father Emperor is much worse than dying in my hands."

"Who said she would definitely die!"

"Huh," Tuobahuang sized up Princess Shanggu, "Could it be that Huangjie wants to save her?"

"Yes." Princess Shanggu said, "I won't let her die."

Tuoba Huang sneered and said, "Sister Huang, you treat her like this, but how is he treating you?"

"We're friends."

"Don't be stupid, my good imperial sister," Tuobahuang said, "to tell you the truth, my people have already found out, and she has lied to you many times when you followed her out to find the law of longevity. You don't know?" Tuoba Huang said, "At that time, the Five Bright Fan given to you by the emperor was already taken by Chu Li. Didn't you feel it at all during this journey? Maybe she treated you half close?" Tuo Ba Huang looked at Princess Shanggu with pity, "Sure enough, it's hard for a woman to make a big deal, sister Huang, you are a woman after all."

Princess Shanggu was startled, with a complicated expression, "No matter what, you are not allowed to touch her."

"The reason of a friend is really not enough to convince me," Tuoba Huang's face turned cold, "Sister Huang, people like us don't have any friends at all. How about this, sister Huang, let's make a bet."

"What are you gambling?"

"Actually, sister, you know that I believe in Buddhism, but my father listened to Cui Hao's slander, belittled the Buddha and worshiped the Tao, and even wanted to use Chu Li to destroy the Buddha. I will never allow this." Tuobahuang said, "Don't kill her It's also okay, as long as she is willing to leave Dawei now, change her name and start a new life. Sister Huang, let's bet whether she believes you or not."

Tuobahuang smiled strangely, "You consider her a friend, but what does she regard you as? Sister Huang, if she is willing to trust you and leave with you, I will not kill her. Otherwise... Sister Huang should not interfere .”

"Are you trying to fight against the emperor?" Princess Shanggu frowned.

Tuoba Huang said, "Miss Huang's words are wrong, there is no need to say anything else, it is useless to say more. Just this bet, do you dare?"

Princess Shanggu said coldly, "Okay, I'll bet with you."
