Li Yang knew very well his responsibilities, and he also knew very well that in the struggle for imperial power, he was nothing more than cannon fodder.
If someone discovers the secret between him and Qin Yushuang, he will definitely die without a burial place.
He is not afraid of death, but he is afraid of losing everything.
He is a smart man. Since he chose to be loyal to Qin Yushuang to save his life, he must follow Qin Yushuang's instructions, otherwise, Zhao Yuanba will be his fate.
He couldn't afford this price.
…
Early next morning.
Li Yang opened his eyes, washed himself, and walked out.
As soon as I went out, several maids came towards me, each carrying a meal.
"I've met Mr. Li."
All the maids shouted in unison.
Li Yang nodded slightly, he was almost used to this kind of life.
He stepped forward and patted the buttocks of a pretty palace maid, and left with a big smile.
"Master Li is so charming!"
"Shh... keep your voice down."
…
Li Yang came to the breakfast table and ate quietly without saying a word.
"Master Li, today is a holiday. Your Majesty invites you to come to the palace to have a talk."
The little eunuch on the side came up and said, and at the same time handed Li Yang a token.
"Well, I'll be here later." Li Yang smiled, reached out and took the token, looked at it carefully, and then stuffed it into his arms.
…
In Qin Yushuang's bedroom, there was a large sofa on the bed, Qin Yushuang closed his eyes and rested.
Her skin was as smooth as snow, and her facial features were exquisite, as if she were a beauty walking out of a painting.
Since she didn't have to go to court today, she didn't put on makeup to pretend to be a man.
However, Qin Yushuang's frowning eyebrows at this moment showed that she was not in a good mood.
"Master Li is here!"
The eunuch's announcement came from outside, and Qin Yushuang slowly opened his eyes.
Li Yang, who was outside the door, also tidied up his appearance before slowly walking out.
When he saw Qin Yushuang's current appearance, a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes. Then, he quickly averted his eyes and bowed.
"See Your Majesty."
"I love you." Qin Yushuang waved her hand and said softly.
She was wearing a white gauze skirt, with bright black silk draped over her shoulders. She had a graceful figure, curvy figures, and an obvious sadness on her beautiful face, which made her look extremely moving.
Li Yang raised his head slightly, glanced at Qin Yushuang secretly, and found that her appearance was still as beautiful as ever, and even a little more beautiful. He couldn't help but sigh inwardly, this Majesty is really a monster who has brought disaster to the country and the people!
"Ahem!" Li Yang coughed dryly, covering up his embarrassment, and asked, "Your Majesty, why did you ask me to come here?"
Qin Yushuang stared at Li Yang and blinked slightly.
"Li Yang, if I want to send you out of the palace to quell the chaos, are you sure?"
Hearing this, Li Yang was stunned and did not react.
To quell the chaos?! How could he, a weak scholar, be able to quell the chaos!
Although he knew that Qin Yushuang wanted to test him, he also understood that it had no meaning at all.
"Your Majesty, I am really not up to the task of quelling the chaos!"
Li Yang said bitterly, he really didn't understand why Qin Yushuang asked such a question.
"Oh~"
Qin Yushuang lengthened her tone, her eyes flashed, and she said with a smile.
"Then what Aiqing and my personal bodyguard Jie'er do in the backyard every day are they not practicing martial arts or learning dance skills?"
Hearing this, Li Yang blushed and didn't know how to answer Qin Yushuang.
He couldn't say that he practiced with Jie'er every day to avoid harassment from the palace ladies and eunuchs.
When Qin Yushuang saw Li Yang's appearance, she knew what he was thinking, and she said with a chuckle.
"My dear, I believe that with your talents, you will be able to do this. I hope that in the near future, you can become my sharpest sword, kill the enemy, and eliminate this serious problem for me."
"Don't worry, I'm not asking you to leave now. There's still a month left, so you should prepare well."
A fierce look flashed in Qin Yushuang's eyes.
Li Yang felt a little uneasy when he heard this. He was not sure whether he could complete the task. After all, he and Qin Yushuang both wanted what they wanted, so how could they really sacrifice their lives for her.
But he didn't dare to disobey the other party's wishes, so he had no choice but to agree.
"Your Majesty, I obey your decree."
Li Yang bowed and saluted.
Qin Yushuang nodded and waved his jade hand.
Afterwards, Li Yang left the imperial garden.
Li Yang was walking on the street, and many people knew him along the way. They bowed their hands to Li Yang and saluted him, calling him "sir".
Li Yang nodded slightly as a response.
"Tmd, how can I say that this period of time has been so good to me? It turns out that you are waiting for me here."
Rubbing his face, he certainly knew why Qin Yushuang did this.
Now Zhao Yuanba, the leader of the military generals, has just died. The generals are leaderless, and it is impossible for Qin Yushuang to watch this happen without intervening.
The emperor's mind is all about containment.
But these have nothing to do with him. The most important thing for him now is to improve his strength within a month.
Not to mention becoming a martial arts master like Jie'er, he must have some ability to protect himself, so that even if he encounters danger, he can still have some ability to protect himself.
If he wasn't strong, he might not even be able to touch the corner of Jie'er's clothes.
…
"What? You said His Majesty wants you to quell the chaos?"
Looking at Jie'er who looked confused in front of him, Li Yang didn't know what to say.
After all, Qin Yushuang's arrangements this time were too hasty.
"Could it be that you come to me every day and make His Majesty worry too much?"
Li Yang scratched his head, looked at Jie'er in front of him, and whispered.
Hearing his words, Jie'er rolled her eyes. She ran to Li Yang. Wasn't it Qin Yushuang's order? How could it be because of this incident?
"Don't forget, the leaders of the generals have just died, and the army is leaderless. If you have performed meritorious service, won't His Majesty remember your meritorious service?"
The corners of Jie'er's mouth curved slightly, and she looked at Li Yang with a half-smile.
After Li Yang heard her words, he smiled bitterly and shook his head. He didn't know this truth.
But the problem is that he has no martial arts skills. It would be fine if the other party comes in the open, but if he makes a hidden arrow or something, he is afraid that he will be blamed here.
He is not a martial arts master, nor is he invulnerable like Jie'er, he is an ordinary person!
Thinking of this, Li Yang was stunned for a moment, as if something suddenly occurred to him.
He jumped up from the bed and walked directly to a side room.
"Hey, where are you going!"
Jie'er shouted hurriedly, but found that it was too late, Li Yang's figure had disappeared around the corner.
Looking at Li Yang's retreating figure, Jie'er sighed helplessly. Why did she feel that Li Yang was getting weirder and weirder now?
Without wasting any more time, Jie'er hurriedly caught up with Li Yang and saw Li Yang squatting in front of a large box that was recovered from today's house raid.
"Hey, Li Yang! What are you doing!"
