Ten days before the wedding, Li Yao disappeared.

Even Li's family hadn't seen him for several days. It was a news that shocked the whole country. It was really impossible to find Li Yao, so they reported it.

After Qi Muye found out, he first sent people to search the whole city, but there was no trace of Li Yao.

According to the Li family's report on the day he didn't see Li Yao, he recalled what Li Yao had mentioned to him.

That is, Li Yao is going to Feng'an Country.

He immediately refused, even if Li Yao didn't say anything, he knew that he could only see that person when he went to Feng'an country.

There is still more than half a month before the wedding, so he naturally won't allow it. What if the wedding day is delayed, not to mention Xiao Zhengyue's mind, he is very clear, and it will be even more troublesome if Li Yao is detained Now, let Li Yao pass by at this time, he would definitely feel uneasy and kind.

But at that time, he was just consoling Li Yao to go to Feng'an after he got married, and he would definitely let Li Yao give him a grand gift.

It's just that he misjudged Li Yao's words and deeds. Once Li Yao agreed to something, and the other party asked him to go there immediately, he would go there.

So Li Yao simply went out of the city to Feng'an without telling Qi Muye, alone, without bringing anything.

No, he still had an ax with him.

It was the one he gave to Li Yao.

This somewhat relieved his heart.

In addition, in Li Yao's room, I found a note left for him, promising that he would come back on time.

The note is in the usual concise style, with only one sentence: come back on time.

Not even a word of tenderness made Qi Muye a little depressed.

Gu Xianshu asked worriedly: "But do you need to send secret guards to search secretly in Feng'an Kingdom?"

Qi Muye looked at the simple characters, shook his head, and said, "No need, I believe him."

From the very beginning, Li Yao did what he promised, so why didn't he believe him.

"Let everything go according to plan. Don't say anything about General Li's disappearance, and block the news." Seeing the concern in Gu Xian's writing, he smiled, and there was an indestructible trust in his smile, and said, "He said he would." If you come back, you will definitely come back."

Perhaps infected by Qi Muye's strong trust, Gu Xianshu also felt a little relieved, and went to act after agreeing.

Qi Muye looked at the note in his hand, wondering if Li Yao had already arrived at the capital of Feng'an Kingdom...but it's only been ten days, isn't that too fast?

Li Yao went to Feng'an country this time, and he was alone all the way. He could finally drive at his own speed as he wished, and there was no longer a group of people staring at him, and he could walk without hindrance at night, so it was really that fast. arrived in Feng'an country.

As soon as he entered the border of Feng'an country, the guards sent to meet him immediately recognized Li Yao.

Because it was when he was escorting Xiao Zhengyue to Yanqing that year, he caught a glimpse of that painting by accident. Although the person in the painting was slightly different from the person in front of him, his facial features were similar.

What's more, Xiao Zhengyue only had one sentence for him to recognize him, and that was: "As soon as he enters the city, you will notice him." His eyes were full of soft emotions, and in his impression that person was standing there It will also emit light, so that the guards can't ask or dare to ask.

At first, he thought that his master was thinking too much, and he was quite worried about how to find him if he went to the city in disguise.

But as Xiao Zhengyue said, in addition to his outstanding appearance, his temperament is even more unique, which can be seen at a glance even when he enters the city among the crowd.

And there was no pretense at all, and his frank appearance was in line with the general's spirit.

But it was too... eye-catching.

Li Yao's face was too deceptive. After being forced to ask directions three times and wink at him twice, the guards asked Li Yao to put on a little disguise to avoid Li Yao's identity being discovered.

Pointing to Li Yao's axe, the guard said tactfully, "Master, I'm afraid it's better to wrap up your ax..." After all, no normal person would take an ax with him on his way out.

Li Yao also said, "Well, that's fine." So he found a sack to put it in, and put it on his shoulders.

The tall and thin figure carried a sack on his shoulders...

Pedestrians passing by couldn't help but look sideways.

Guard: "..."

The journey to the capital was smooth. The two of them rode on horseback, and the time was much shorter than expected. Li Yao's stamina and riding skills were much better than the guards imagined. He was almost the one holding back the journey.

The guards had documents to enter the city, and they easily entered the capital.

However, after all, when entering the city gate, the guard looked at the backs of the two men for a while, and finally reported to the person specially ordered.

Li Yao secretly moved into the prince's mansion first, but he couldn't see Xiao Zhengyue immediately, so he asked him to rest first.

After Li Yao chose to use his mental power to investigate the surrounding environment, he found that the whole mansion was filled with many hidden guards, and there were also guards patrolling alternately in the open. feel.

Riding on horseback was too bumpy and really uncomfortable, so after checking the surrounding environment, Li Yao had a feeling in his mind, and began to close his eyes and fall into a light sleep state.

Until night fell, during which the servants came over to deliver a dinner, and Xiao Zhengyue didn't come until Xushi.

As soon as the person arrived at the door, Li Yao opened his eyes immediately. The other person pushed the door open, and was a little surprised by Li Yao's clear eyes. Then he looked away and pretended to explain calmly: "You are tired from traveling these days , I was afraid to disturb you to rest, so I didn't knock on the door..."

Facing Li Yao, he was both happy and nervous. When he heard that Li Yao came to the mansion, he came to see him immediately, but felt that he should appear more stable now that he was the prince, so he restrained his anxiety to replace him. The royal father handles government affairs and has not come until now.

Xiao Zhengyue noticed that the food on the table hadn't been touched, and it was obviously cold, so he frowned and said, "Why don't you eat dinner? Is it not to your liking?"

Li Yao lied calmly: "Forgot." In fact, he was still a little vigilant.

"The food is already cold. I'll order someone to bring it up for you." As he said that, he called the servants, thought for a while, and asked someone to bring two jars of wine.

Xiao Zhengyue poured wine for each other and said, "It's been a long time since I saw you. It should be a drink to celebrate." As he spoke, he took the lead in drinking a glass, and soon a slight blush appeared on his face.

He is easy to face when drinking, and he doesn't hold much alcohol. This meeting is indeed worth drinking and celebrating, but it is more of a beautiful thought.

But he didn't expect Li Yao's capacity for drinking to be so good. Seeing that the two of them drank both jars of wine to the bottom, Li Yao was not drunk at all, and his eyes were still looking at him clearly.

Seeing that Xiao Zhengyue's white and tender skin was still stained with a layer of peach-like tender powder, his eyes began to be in a trance, Li Yao said: "You are drunk."

Xiao Zhengyue denied it categorically: "I'm not drunk!" Then in order to strengthen his argument, he hugged the wine jar and said: "I have to correct the memorial tomorrow!"

Li Yao was even more sure, and said, "Then you won't be able to work tomorrow."

"Nonsense!" Xiao Zhengyue became tough, as if he was teaching his subordinates in front of the palace, but his eyes softened inexplicably when he met Li Yao, and he was immediately discouraged, as if he was mumbling and acting like a baby.

Li Yao looked at Xiao Zhengyue so drunk that his eyes blurred, and he didn't understand why Xiao Zhengyue asked him to come to Feng'an Country, to drink with him?Doesn't it mean that there are important things that require him to fulfill the promise of the year?

Xiao Zhengyue hugged the wine jar, and suddenly approached Li Yao. Li Yao's body was slightly tilted. Xiao Zhengyue sniffed, as if smelling him, wrinkled the bridge of his nose, and said, "Are you on your way?" Hugged my guard when I was there?"

Surprise appeared in his usually calm eyes. Looking at Xiao Zhengyue, he felt a little unbelievable, and said, "You smelled it?"

Could it be that his friend with some problems has an unusual sense of smell?

Seeing Li Yao's surprised look, Xiao Zhengyue felt complacent, and said, "That's natural." Then he said harshly, "You can't hug anyone else!" Except me.

In fact, when the guard reported the sneak attack on the road, he accidentally slipped his mouth, because Li Yao was traveling too fast, and several horses were changed on the road. Slow down and ride directly with him.

Xiao Zhengyue felt uncomfortable, but in order to show that he was not a small-minded person, he didn't do anything to the guards. He just found a reason to reveal his identity and punished him with half a month's confinement.

Li Yao said calmly, "Is this what you want?"

Xiao Zhengyue turned his head around and said, "What request?"

"You asked me to come to Feng'an Country to ask me to fulfill your request, so this is it?"

"certainly not!"

"So what are you going to do?" Li Yao's voice became cold.

Looking at Xiao Zhengyue who was drunk at the moment, Li Yao felt that he was being tricked, and his tone became cold.

If this is the reason, he will beat Xiao Zhengyue...

"I like you."

A soft murmur.

Li Yao looked at him, the other party was lying on the table, the wine jar fell to the ground, and a corner was broken, Xiao Zhengyue closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Li Yao: What is he talking about?

Love Wisdom Brain: "Your friend seems to have impure motives."

Li Yao: What do you mean?

The love brain is simple and rude: "He wants to fuck//you."

Li Yao: ...

Li Yao looked at Xiao Zhengyue who was drunk on the table and didn't know what to say for a while.

When Xiao Zhengyue woke up, he was already lying on the bed with a splitting headache. When he turned over and sat up, he saw Li Yao sitting at the table. Seeing Li Yao's gaze, he felt embarrassed, and looked away, his already white/tender skin turned red quietly.

Li Yao waited patiently for him to wash up before asking, "What on earth did you ask me to do?"

Originally, Xiao Zhengyue didn't want to mention it too early, and wanted to get along with Li Yao for a while.

Li Yao continued: "I refuse your request last night."

Xiao Zhengyue was a little confused, and said, "What request?" Obviously he had forgotten what nonsense he said last night.

Li Yao answered solemnly: "You can't make demands of others."

Xiao Zhengyue almost choked on his own saliva, and immediately felt extremely ashamed, but at the same time, in order to maintain a steady image, he could only cough a few times.

But what Li Yao said next set him on fire.

"I'm getting married, and I want to hug someone else. So I can't accept this request."

It was so honest that it made Xiao Zhengyue almost crazy with jealousy.

"I didn't believe it when I heard that you were going to marry Qi Muye, but now it seems to be true?" There was a light red madness in those eyes that were as clear as glass.

Li Yao nodded: "It's true."

Xiao Zhengyue swept the tea set on the table to the ground, leaned close to Li Yao, clenched his fists tightly, and said, "Could it be that you fell in love with him?"

Li Yao was startled, and his hand touched his heart.Seeing his hesitant expression, Xiao Zhengyue felt a pain in his heart as if being torn apart. He seemed to not want to hear the real answer. Before Li Yao answered, he sneered and said with a little despair: "It seems to be true. It's..."

Li Yao asked, "What on earth do you want me to do?"

Xiao Zhengyue stared at Li Yao closely, his jealousy almost made him lose his mind, but facing those still calm lacquer eyes, his anger had nowhere to vent.

"You said you wanted to repay me, right?" Seeing Li Yao nodding, Xiao Zhengyue said coldly, "Then I want you to stay here forever."

Li Yao refused straight away: "No way. I said I owe you once, but I didn't say that I would agree to such an unreasonable condition."

"So you must go back and get married?" Xiao Zhengyue felt that every word he said was torturing himself, but he still saw the person in front of him nodding indifferently.

"Okay...very good..." Xiao Zhengyue closed his eyes, trying to calm himself down. His current emotions are too agitated, which will not do him any good. He needs to calm down, at least not to anger Li Yao at the moment. Otherwise it will be counterproductive.

When Xiao Zhengyue opened his eyes again, his glass-like pupils finally regained their former composure, put away the gaffe just now, and the steward came to him, saying that the emperor was looking for him.

"Since that's the case, you still owe me one, right? I'm going to deal with business first, and you can talk about it when I come back."

For his current plan, he had to delay first.

If it doesn't work, he won't believe that he can let Li Yao run away with everyone in his house.

Immediately, he asked his subordinates to increase the number of guards in the mansion.

In addition to preventing Li Yao from running away, more importantly, if Li Yao's identity is revealed, he will also be in a dangerous situation, especially now that the emperor is seriously ill.

Moreover, the fact that Li Yao was attacked on the road, he believed that it had already attracted the attention of some people, and even had their eyes on Li Yao, so he had to be more cautious.

But he still didn't expect that when he returned to the government after dealing with the government affairs, when he mustered up the courage to express his feelings to Li Yao, he found that Li Yao was not there.

He took precautions against everything, but he never expected that he would forget to guard against his mother and concubine.

Concubine Xiao Gui had been fighting with the queen for so many years, and she finally waited until her son succeeded in becoming the crown prince. Naturally, she would not allow anyone to become a threat to Xiao Zhengyue's ascension to the throne at this time.

When Li Yao was brought in by the guards, she was indeed amazed by Li Yao's appearance, but in the end she felt that it was nothing more than that.

Concubine Xiao directly cut to the chase: "My son is someone who wants to become an emperor, so it is absolutely impossible for me to get entangled with you. You are from Yanqing, and your status is special, so it will only hinder him. You should leave Feng'an as soon as possible, otherwise But don’t blame me for doing it.”

To her surprise, Li Yao was very cooperative and said, "I will leave here."

After saving a lot of effort, Concubine Xiao snorted coldly, and said, "That's good." Seeing that Li Yao's temper was quite mild, Concubine Xiao's attitude was less confrontational, and said, "I don't know the relationship between my son and you. What happened in the past, but you are impossible, you are a general of a neighboring country, he is the prince, he still can't figure it out, but you can't figure it out, right? This will only hurt you. "

Li Yao felt that what she said was very reasonable, and simply agreed with her point of view, saying: "What you said makes sense."

There was a quarrel outside the door, and the maid hurriedly came in to report: "His Royal Highness insists on coming in."

Concubine Xiao Gui said, "Let him in."

Xiao Zhengyue came in, his eyes searched the hall, he was secretly relieved when he saw Li Yao, and then saluted Concubine Xiao: "The emperor pays his respects to the concubine mother."

Xiao Zhengyue's uncle also came in together, and it was he who was talking to Xiao Zhengyue at the door just now.

"Prince, the noble concubine has also put in a lot of painstaking efforts." It was he who reported this matter to Concubine Xiao.

Because Xiao Zhengyue ascended to the position of prince, this person put in a lot of effort, and he had the military power in his hands to give him confidence, so Xiao Zhengyue's attitude was suppressed, he smiled reluctantly, and said: "I want to fight with my mother." Concubine, tell me."

Concubine Xiao Gui motioned her elder brother to step down first, and there were only three of them left in the hall.

"Mother Concubine, why are you like this?" Xiao Zhengyue asked aloud.

"Now it's not your business alone. Behind you is the entire Xiao family! If you make a mistake at this time, and others find out that you are hiding the generals of the neighboring country and colluding with the neighboring country, please refer to your book to betray the neighbors." The crime of the country, you can come down from this position at any time!" The more Concubine Xiao said, the more excited she became, she had been waiting for so many years, and she was about to succeed, and it was absolutely impossible for her previous efforts to be wasted by this little matter.

Even if her hands were covered with blood, she would not hesitate to do so. She walked all the way to the present and stepped on the bones of many people. Unlike Princess Fuyun, she was born smoothly. She is used to the dangers in the palace.

Xiao Zhengyue retorted: "I won't let this kind of thing happen..."

"No? Do you really think you can hide it?" Concubine Xiao Gui instantly regained her former grace, her smile was still kind, but with a trace of cruelty, and she said, "The last time you delivered iron ore to Yanqing, you really thought it was seamless. ?"

Xiao Zhengyue's pupils constricted sharply, and his whole body was icy cold. At this moment, he felt that the concubine mother in front of him was especially strange.

"If your uncle and I hadn't kept it from you, I'm afraid your current position as the crown prince would be lost!"

He never thought that his mother, concubine and uncle had been watching him all the time, and he ridiculously thought that what he did was airtight, but he didn't know that everything was under the control of others.

Concubine Xiao's tone softened, she walked to Xiao Zhengyue's side, coaxed her son as gently as in the past, and said: "Yue'er, the concubine mother is for your own good. Moreover, this person has already asked to leave, I'm afraid it's not true to you."

Xiao Zhengyue looked at Li Yao, his eyes were full of despair after the glass was broken, and the last ray of light in his pupils was more like a drowning man trying to grasp the last ray of hope.

"I will leave here." Concubine Xiao showed a satisfied smile, but Li Yao's next sentence was: "But I will fulfill my promise to you first."

After all, the light in the pupils became bigger and bigger, just like in the cottage, the ashesy eyes were finally rekindled because of the fair-skinned young man in the fire.

Today, you are still my belief.

Concubine Xiao Gui's complexion changed, she felt that she was being tricked by Li Yao, a hint of sternness flashed in her eyes, when she was about to speak, Xiao Zhengyue grabbed her wrist, as obediently as usual comforting her, when she raised her eyes, she All true emotions are hidden deep inside.

He said to Li Yao: "I don't need you, you can leave tomorrow."

Li Yao said, "Okay."

At that moment his heart was throbbing.

Concubine Xiao Gui's brows were beaming with joy, her face was still beautiful, and she said: "My Yue'er really puts the overall situation first."

And he can only pretend to be indifferent and continue to obey his concubine mother docilely, only then can he take Li Yao away.

"As soon as the city gate opens tomorrow morning, you will leave the city. I will find someone to cover you, and I will have someone pretend to be you before leaving the city." Xiao Zhengyue did not believe that his uncle would let Li Yao go so easily, he had to do it in advance get ready.

"This time it was my negligence that brought you into such a dangerous environment." Xiao Zhengyue apologized.

Li Yao felt that this was not a problem, but if he was surrounded by the army, he would indeed be in trouble.

"It's okay. It's just troublesome. But I promised you." Li Yao said, "Are you really not going to mention your request?"

Xiao Zhengyue looked at him in astonishment, his eyes were full of reluctance, and he shook his head gently: "No..."

What Concubine Xiao and his uncle said this time made him recognize himself for the first time. He did not rely on his own strength to sit on the crown prince. never knew.

Why should he pursue his own feelings and protect others like this.

"It's my ability that I'm still complacent...it turns out..." Xiao Zhengyue couldn't help but bow his head in frustration.

"But you did show your ability in the process, and not everyone can use it." Facing Xiao Zhengyue's gaze, Li Yao continued: "When you realize your weakness, you will think to become stronger."

This is also what Li Yao often said to soldiers, when the weak want to conquer the strong, it is even more difficult and valuable.

"You..." Xiao Zhengyue was astonished. It is undeniable that he was moved by Li Yao's words.

In the silence, he finally said: "Are you right to agree to my request?"

"Yes," Li Yao added, "as long as it's reasonable."

"Then... close your eyes first."

Li Yao stared straight at him and said, "What are you doing?"

He still remembered the words said by Love Zhinao.

He wants to fuck//him.

"It's not what you think, I just..." Xiao Zhengyue couldn't explain clearly for a while, he could only say, "Don't worry, I won't touch you."

Li Yao thought it was okay, anyway, his force could be suppressed, so he closed his eyes.

Xiao Zheng looked at the face in front of him greedily, a little more determined than two years ago, his eyelashes were long and straight, casting shadows on his face like a brush.

Finally, he picked up a piece of paper and put it on Li Yao's forehead, and gently covered his lips on the white paper.

Li Yao's eyelashes trembled a few times, but they didn't move in the end.

Even with a blank sheet of paper on his forehead, he could feel the warmth of the other party's hot lips, and it would disappear after a while.

Xiao Zhengyue forced himself to turn his face away, fearing that if he looked at it a few more times, he would really take the person in front of him as his own.

"You and I have nothing to delay or owe, you should rest earlier." After saying that, he went out without even daring to look back.

Unfortunately, before he could protect his beloved, he had no choice but to let go.

Xiao Zhengyue didn't show up again until Li Yao left the city gate the next day.
