Li Qi'an quickly helped him up, "What are you talking about, Fifth Young Master? When I went out before, I told you that Fifth Young Master should just do his own thing. There are some things that Fifth Young Master can't control. Besides, my family and Qi The princess was captured, and even the emperor did not expect it, so there is no need for the fifth son to blame himself."
Li Ran sighed and smiled bitterly, "Mr. Li, there is no need to comfort me. I know my abilities myself. Just like the current incident in Beijing, I can't do anything. When I learned that Mr. Li's family was arrested, I was even more worried." There is nothing we can do."
"Fifth Young Master, I don't want to hear such arrogant words anymore. Have you forgotten what I once told you? Everyone's abilities have their uses. In this current situation, it's not that you can't use your strength. , but it’s not until you use your strength!" Li Qian said.
Li Ran was silent for a moment, "Mr. Li, I know you are doing it for my own good, but there are some things I can't do. That doesn't mean Brother Sanhuang can't do it."
"So the troops brought by the Fifth Young Master are the Third Prince's troops?" Li Qian asked.
"The prince led an army and said he wanted to kill you and Dou Huaishan. I don't know where my father is now. I went to Chonghe Palace and my father was not there, so I borrowed some soldiers from the Third Emperor." Li Ran said. , "Mr. Li, the prince is very murderous towards you. Now that he has troops, he may be even more unscrupulous."
"So the Fifth Young Master specially borrowed men and horses to help me." Li Qian said with a smile.
Li Ran's face turned slightly red, "I also know that I can't help Mr. Li, but if Li Ran doesn't do something, he will feel bad. Moreover, Brother Sanhuang has made it clear to me that as long as Mr. Li needs it, Prince Jing's Mansion can fully help Mr. Li." gentlemen."
"The fifth prince is interested." Li Qian nodded, "The third prince is also interested! But the prince has nothing to do with me now. When he has enough fun, someone will take care of him."
Li Ran was startled for a moment, "Have you had enough? Mr. Li, what do you mean?"
"Okay, let's not talk about the prince for now. Let's go back and talk slowly." Li Qian said.
"Mr. Li, I'm afraid it's not safe to go back to your house now. Why don't you come with me to Prince Jing's Mansion?" Li Ran said.
"I've been away from home for so long. I have to go back and visit. I won't go to Prince Jing's Mansion yet." Li Qian said with a smile.
"Mr. Li, there is one more thing. Mr. Xu, he...he passed away!" Li Ran said, lowering his head with red eyes.
The smile on Li Qian's face gradually stiffened, "Mr. Xu, passed away?"
Li Ran nodded, his voice choked up, "Not long ago, I didn't even have time to see him for the last time."
"How did he die?" Li Qian said word by word.
In his opinion, Mr. Xu's body had always been strong and he was not particularly old. How could he die suddenly?
Although he has been calling Mr. Xu a shameless old man, this old shameless man also understands him best.
Although he came to the capital, it was this old man who facilitated it.
But in this matter, Mr. Xu was indeed doing it for his own good.
Now that Mr. Xu is dead, how can he not feel heavy.
"He was drunk and slipped and fell into the pond. It was too late at that time. By the time others found out, Mr. Xu was already dead," Li Ran said.
"Drunk and stumbled?" Li Qian frowned.
With Mr. Xu’s drinking capacity, how could he possibly stumble while drunk?
Even if he stumbled while drunk, he wouldn't have fallen into the pond by chance.
"Mr. Li, don't believe Mr. Xu made a mistake while drunk?" Li Ran glanced at Li Qian.
"Do you believe it?" Li Qian just asked.
"Although Mr. Xu has indeed offended many people in the court, no one dared to really harm him. Even if someone did, it would be the Third Emperor Brother, and no one else except the prince. But at that time, the prince colluded with Dou Huaishan , who was committing treason and even sent someone to assassinate his father, they should have no time to take action against Mr. Xu. Besides, killing Mr. Xu would not bring any substantial benefit to them," Li Ran said.
"The prince has assassinated the emperor?" Li Qian asked.
"The prince once sent people to assassinate his father at the royal hunting ground, but the news was suppressed by his father. Not many people know about it now. The third emperor brother also told me this matter." Li Ran said. .
"Does the fifth prince know how the third prince concluded that those who assassinated the emperor were the prince's people?" Li Qian asked.
"Although Brother Three Emperors didn't say anything, at that time, there would be no one else except the Crown Prince. My father must have found the evidence and suppressed the news in order to take the overall situation into consideration." Li Ran said.
"The third prince was the first to discover Mr. Xu's death, right?" Li Qian asked again.
