Liu Mingzhi withdrew his eyes from looking at the simple decoration in the hall, and took the tea from Li Tao with a faint smile: "You can sit down too, this is your house, and my uncle will not feel comfortable doing this."
"This... the kid listens to you."
The two of them tasted the tea slowly, and Li Tao looked at He Shu: "Mother, what is going on? Why are you with my uncle?"
He Shu's beautiful eyes glanced at Liu Mingzhi who was sipping tea across from him with complicated eyes: "This is what it looked like, after the queen mother was knocked unconscious..."
He Shuyan briefly and comprehensively told the story of what happened, naturally concealing the fact that he and Liu Mingzhi rode a horse together from the border of Cangzhou to the capital, and only told some details about the two men in black.
"It's really God's blessing. My mother is indeed a lucky person. She has her own destiny."
"My son, Li Tao, would like to thank my uncle again for his great kindness to his mother."
"No need to be polite, just sit down!"
"yes!"
Liu Mingzhi put down the tea cup and looked at Li Tao quietly: "Why didn't you report your mother's kidnapping to the court and hunt down the culprits? After your mother and I returned to Beijing, we found that the capital was calm and there seemed to be no large-scale deployment of the imperial army. Look."
Li Tao glanced at He Shu who was standing aside with an apologetic look: "Mother, I'm sorry, for the sake of the court's face and the Li family's face, I didn't dare to publicize this matter right away. Instead, I ordered the royal family's soldiers to investigate the matter secretly. , following the traces of the Queen Mother, planning to ask the Emperor's brother to send troops to rescue you when there is really no way out. I didn't expect that the thief's Kung Fu was so advanced, and brought the Queen Mother to a location so far away from the capital.
Ask the mother to punish her children for being unfilial. "
Before Liu Mingzhi said anything, He Shu stood up and stopped Li Tao, who was about to kneel to him. He looked at Li Tao with a look of regret on his face with beautiful eyes.
"Son, you did the right thing. For the sake of the court's face, the affairs of the Ai family cannot be made public.
The Ai family can die, but the fact that the Ai family was kidnapped by such thieves must not be known to outsiders. Even if the Ai family's innocence is preserved, it cannot be publicized, because others will not believe it.
You're doing the right thing, you're doing a great job. "
"My dear, thank you mother for your understanding!"
"King Zhao, have you seen the thief's face clearly?"
"No, the car curtain suddenly opened at that time, and the bright light suddenly made the child's eyes black and could not see anything. When the child came to his senses, the mother was gone."
"Where is your attendant?"
"Like the kid, he saw nothing. The kid repeatedly forced him to think carefully, but there was still no result.
The boy originally thought that he would go to the palace and ask the imperial brother for help if there was no result before nightfall.
Unexpectedly, by chance, the uncle rescued the mother from the predicament first, and the child thanked the uncle for his kindness. "
Liu Mingzhi looked at Li Tao's regretful and self-reproaching expression calmly: "You have no impression at all. You can't see clearly what he looks like. I guess he has some appearance, right?"
"There is no general appearance. The kid only practiced some boxing and kicking skills. The thief was so fast that I didn't even have time to react."
"Uncle knows, don't blame yourself too much. Fortunately, your mother was safe this time and no crisis occurred. You mother and son were reunited. You must have a lot to say. Uncle, I won't bother you and leave first. ”
"Sister-in-law of the Emperor, please leave first."
"Wait a minute, uncle, I've already arranged a banquet. It's getting late, so just have your meal before going back."
"Yes, uncle, Tao'er is right. The Ai family also plans to thank you for your great kindness and let Tao'er have a few more drinks with you. You can just have dinner and then go back!"
“No, let’s do it another day!
Let’s talk about it after paying homage to the emperor’s brother’s new funeral.
Farewell! "
"Send the child to uncle!"
"Stay here, it's more important for you mother and son to reminisce about the past.
Farewell! "
"Okay, since my uncle insists on leaving, I won't force the child to stay. I will definitely accompany the queen to visit her at home one day to thank her for her great kindness.
Uncle, please go slowly, please don’t send me far! "
Liu Mingzhi left Prince Zhao's Mansion, glanced vaguely at the mansion behind him, took off his horse's reins and galloped towards Liu's Mansion.
In Young Master Liu's study room in the inner courtyard, the lights were dimly lit. Liu Mingzhi stood with his hands behind his back while looking at the map on the wooden shelf, waiting for Suzaku to arrive.
The breeze passed through the window sill, causing the candlelight in the study to flicker even more fiercely. Facing the dim moonlight, a beautiful figure flew down into the study with a graceful movement!
The lights were bright again, reflecting the charming and charming face of the visitor. .
Astonishingly, it was Suzaku, the head of the Suzaku Department.
Suzaku looked at Young Master Liu who was standing with his hands behind his back, a charming smile appeared on his lips, and he twisted his graceful waist and walked towards Young Master Liu.
"Young Master, you are so anxious to have Qing Long Chuan Que'er come to see you. Could it be that the Young Master has figured it out and wants Que'er in a hurry?"
However, when Suzaku walked about three steps behind Young Master Liu, his charming expression froze, and the charming smile that raised on his lips also subsided.
She felt a hint of coldness from the young master's body, as cold as if the air around him had condensed.
Suddenly, Suzaku did not dare to continue joking with Young Master Liu like before. He quickly corrected his posture, held his white and flawless jade hands together, and knelt down on one knee towards Young Master Liu.
"My subordinate Zhuque, the head of the Zhuque Department, is here to see the young master. I wonder what the young master's orders are when he summons his subordinates."
Liu Mingzhi listened to the movement behind him, took his eyes back from the map on the wooden shelf, raised his hand to pick up the candlestick on the desk, turned around and walked towards the chair behind the desk.
Sitting on the chair with the candlestick in hand, Liu Mingzhi glanced at Suzaku aside.
"Get up!"
"Thank you, Master!"
"sit down!"
"My subordinates dare not!"
"Then please rub my shoulders for this young master."
"Yes, Suzaku has the order."
Suzaku lived up to her charming and enchanting appearance when she first entered the study. She walked up behind Young Master Liu like a girl from a small family, raised her slender jade fingers, placed them on Young Master Liu's shoulders and kneaded them gently.
Liu Mingzhi breathed out softly, leaned back lazily, placed the back of his head squarely on Suzaku's plump chest, closed his eyes and enjoyed it.
Seeing this, Suzaku smiled lightly, not feeling any shyness at all.
"Master, if the force gets too strong, tell Que'er."
"Um!"
After a few cups of tea, Liu Mingzhi slowly opened his eyes: "Suzaku!"
"My subordinate is here!"
"Does the Suzaku Division have any information about King Zhao Li Tao?"
"Young Master, please forgive me. There is currently no information collected about King Zhao. All the personnel of the Suzaku Division have gone to the capital, the 27th Prefecture in the North, the Kingdom of Jin and the Turks to search for information. After all, the Young Master is very concerned about the war. It’s important, my subordinates don’t dare to distribute their manpower elsewhere!”
"Well, this is not your fault, so there is no need to worry."
"Yes, thank you for your understanding, young master."
"When you go back, immediately gather all the idle experts in the Suzaku Division to thoroughly investigate everything that happened after King Zhao Li Tao became a vassal.
Under the premise of ensuring the safety of the brothers, at all costs, investigate all the information that can be found and send it to me! "
"Yes, Suzaku takes the order!"
"Young Master, Suzaku dared to ask, Zhao Wang Li Tao is just a young boy who has just grown up, why did he go to such great lengths to fight?"
"What's wrong with this young boy? He has ambition but not age.
After not seeing each other for a year, the young master always felt that this boy was not as simple as he seemed on the surface.
This kid’s thoughts are unusual!
Just do it if you are asked to do so. You have forgotten the order I gave you. "
"Yes, I realize my mistake."
"As long as you realize your mistake, it's better to get started on this matter sooner rather than later."
"Are you going now? I want to spend more time with you!"
"You still have a long life, go ahead!"
"Okay, Suzaku, take your leave!"
"etc!"
Zhuque Qianying paused and looked at Young Master Liu in surprise: "Master, have you regretted it?"
"That's a nice thought, haven't there been any progress on Ren Wenyue and Ren Qingrui's affairs?"
Suzaku glanced at Young Master Liu with an irritated look, and silently shook his head: "No, Ren Wenyue really seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and there was no news.
If his location cannot be found, Ren Qingrui's affairs will also be unable to progress! "
"Oh...it's been such a troubled time. I have laid out a big picture, but how many people are I in the game with? Who is in whose game!"
"Master, it's a troubled winter now!"
"You bastard, go get down to business!"
"Oh! Excuse me!"
