Cao Gongyun looked away.
He didn't dare to look at the woman at all.
Fear!
Hesitant!
nervous!
Full of betrayer's guilt.
Qin Ziyi saw it and thought that this guy was really a two-faced person.
The unmistakable show of affection he performed with that woman that morning really deceived him.
Who would have thought.
It was such a seemingly loving couple, but in just half a day, the two sides were at war with each other. They hated each other so much that they wanted to kill each other more than anyone else.
This is really...
“You know people, you know faces, but you don’t know hearts.”
Qin Ziyi sighed greatly.
Cao Gongyun said this person cannot be trusted.
And the crime is extremely heinous.
They are collecting bribes and sharpening their swords against their relatives.
He can also be described as a ruthless person.
When an ordinary official encounters such a person, he will definitely be punished.
But Qin Ziyi is different.
At present, Cao Gongyun has the power to transfer Hanyang Clan and is closely related to the case of His Highness Xiao Sizi. He intends to protect this person even after the case of His Highness Xiao Sizi is over.
Those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters.
After breaking the news, in order for His Highness the Crown Prince to be able to kill the King of Chu more reliably, what's the harm in bringing the villain into the camp? !
"Qin Shaoqing, you are here."
At this moment, his subordinate Lu Shi discovered him and walked over quickly.
"Um."
Qin Ziyi nodded, and then said: "What's the situation now?"
Lu Shi said deeply: "It's hard to say, this woman is very skilled in martial arts."
"None of the brothers are her match, and you said that she needs to be captured alive, so... we are still at a deadlock for the time being, but her physical strength is almost exhausted, and we should be able to catch her later."
The words fell.
Qin Ziyi was about to speak when Cao Gongyun heard the conversation between the two and lost his voice: "Capture alive? No, no, this is absolutely not possible!
"Qin Shaoqing, you promised me that you must kill this woman. Only by killing her will I tell you what I know!
Cao Gongyun was afraid.
Extremely afraid of women.
When the woman heard this, she became even more ferocious with only one eye left, and rushed towards Cao Gongyun's position with her sword.
"Beast! Beast!
She screamed filial piety heartbreakingly.
He fought with the Dali Temple yamen servant, using all his strength to beat the yamen servant and retreating steadily.
However.
Because her mind was filled with hatred, her attention was only on Cao Gongyun in front of her. She was defenseless on her side, and two Dali Temple government officials seized the opportunity and stabbed her thigh with their swords.
"thump……."
The woman was severely injured and could no longer hold on. Her legs fell to the ground and she could no longer stand up.
Cao Gongyun was overjoyed when he saw this. He pushed the Dali Temple yamen officer in front of him and shouted: "Kill her! Kill her quickly!"
"this……."
The Dali Temple yamen official was quite hesitant. He glanced at Qin Ziyi, his young minister, and found that Qin Ziyi signaled for him to take Cao Gongyun away.
Suddenly.
Without hesitation, he and the government servant next to him took away Cao Gongyun, who was almost madly yelling at his filial piety.
After Cao Gongyun was forcibly taken away, the entire scene became quiet.
Qin Ziyi walked not far from the woman, squatted down and said, "Who are you?"
The woman gasped and looked directly at Qin Ziyi quietly. As she watched, she smiled, the louder she laughed.
"Pfft, haha, hahaha!"
"Qin Ziyi, Qin Ziyi, you want to know the master's whereabouts through my mouth? You are wishful thinking!
"Cao Gongyun is a beast. His master will naturally kill him, but you will never be able to catch him! You will never know what you are facing!
Say it.
Bit your lips and tongue.
Qin Ziyi's face changed drastically, and she said loudly: "Stop her quickly, she is going to bite her tongue and commit suicide!
The two Dali Temple government officials were slightly stunned and stepped forward to stop him. However, they missed the opportunity just for being so stunned.
The woman's eyes were loose and blood was flowing out of her mouth. She had obviously committed suicide.
There is no hesitation in committing suicide.
I couldn't help but make all the Dali Temple officials present feel frightened.
What is behind her? To be able to cultivate such a dead soldier.
"Qin Shaoqing, I'm sorry."
The Dali Temple official who was responsible for stopping it felt very guilty.
"It's okay, no one can stop such a highly skilled martial artist from committing suicide."
Qin Ziyi waved her hands indifferently.
Then, he asked someone to bring Cao Gongyun over.
When Cao Gongyun saw the woman's death, his originally nervous and frightened expression turned into relief, excitement, and he even screamed to the sky.
"Haha! Hahaha! Dead, dead, you old witch, you are finally dead!
"Damn, you really deserve to die. In the past three years, I haven't had a single day of peace, yet I still want to help you raise that evil son! Damn it, damn it! He's not my son, why should I help you raise him! I'm an official of the imperial court!
"Isn't it just because of the master's help that I was able to sit in this position? Over the years, I have repaid my debt long ago! Why are you bastards holding on to me, bastards..."
He roared crazily at the woman's body, venting all the pain he had accumulated for many years as if he was mad.
Qin Ziyi did not urge him. The overall situation was now in his hands, so he asked all the Dali Temple officials present to retreat, while he stood quietly beside Cao Gongyun and listened.
from.
He heard many interesting words.
Master, Kaiyang, Big Dipper...
I don’t know how much time has passed.
About two quarters of an hour.
Seeing that Cao Gongyun had no energy to continue cursing, Qin Ziyi stepped forward and said, "Tell me, tell me everything you know."
Cao Gongyun glanced at him feebly and said with seeming dissatisfaction: "Qin Shaoqing, this is different from what we agreed. You actually tried to keep this woman alive."
Qin Ziyi said nonchalantly: "Cao Sixun, pay attention to your attitude."
"At present, only I know about your corruption, but whether I am strict or not depends on your own behavior."
"In addition, this woman is dead, but the person behind her has not yet been brought down. In order to have peace of mind in the future, you and I have the same interests, and we both want to find out the mastermind behind it."
"You should not hide secrets, either emotionally or rationally."
The words fell.
Cao Gongyun was stunned for a moment, then sighed: "That's right, our interests are the same~"
"Concerning your Highness Xiao Sizi, Qin Shaoqing, the main messenger behind this is Kaiyang, one of the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper."
Qin Ziyi's eyes flickered: "Big Dipper?!"
This is a term I have never heard of.
Cao Gongyun nodded and said, "Yes, maybe Qin Shaoqing doesn't know much about them."
"But they are real. The power of each Star Master is no less than that of aristocratic families. Compared with the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes, they seem to be no different. The only difference is that these Star Masters are scattered in other states and counties. "
"Kaiyang, one of the Seven Stars, was a native of Chang'an in his early years, but he took people to Yizhou three years ago, established a foothold there, and continued to work hard for the family business. It was not until recently that the mysterious Kaiyang, one of the original Seven Stars, abdicated and got Beidou Qixing’s invitation to become one of them is also to be Kaiyang’s successor.”
"As soon as he became Kaiyang, he brought people to Chang'an City to plan the action of His Highness Xiao Sizi."
"Since he has not set foot in Chang'an City in three years, when he arrived in Chang'an City, he did not plan it by himself, but chose one of the local forces in Chang'an City to jointly plan it."
"As for who this local force is? I don't know. Kaiyang's defense is very deep."
Qin Ziyi listened.
Eyes twinkling.
"Kaiyang, one of the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper, what was his purpose in assassinating His Highness Xiao Sizi?!"
Cao Gongyun smiled and shook his head and said: "Who knows, maybe he just entered the Big Dipper to gain a foothold? Or maybe there are other purposes? How can Cao guess about such a person who controls power."
Qin Ziyi said: "Yes, besides these, what other information can you give me?!"
This information only allowed him to understand who the enemy was, but it was of no use in helping the situation.
"The Ministry of War."
At this time, Cao Gongyun spit out a word.
He looked at Qin Ziyi and said seriously: "Kaiyang left Chang'an three years ago and has no other chess pieces except me, so when he returned to Chang'an City, he brought his own team in Yizhou."
"In other words, the people he brought had no official positions."
"And if you want to turn ordinary people into imperial guards, you need to recruit soldiers from the Ministry of War! Only soldiers who have a normal recruitment process can I arrange for them to enter the Hanyang Gate!"
"He is in the Ministry of War, there is someone!
Ministry of War...
Qin Ziyi was slightly startled and said: "The Ministry of War has checked and found that these people were all guards from a few years ago, weren't they?!"
It was precisely because he was a soldier a few years ago that Qin Ziyi did not go to the military department, but focused on Cao Gongyun who dispatched these guards to Hanyang Gate.
Cao Gongyun sneered: "Fake! They are all forgeries!"
Qin Ziyi's eyes were deep and he said: "Forgery? Who has such great authority and dares to forge the Ministry of War files! This is a serious crime against the Nine Clan!
This matter was a bit beyond his imagination. How big of an official does one have to be to forge Ministry of War files? Even Cao Gongyun, the head of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, couldn't forge it, and there was someone in the Ministry of War who forged the files.
That is to say.
That Kaiyang, there was a big shot in the Ministry of War who belonged to him.
horrible!
How terrible!
Cao Gongyun shook his head helplessly: "This is not what Cao should know."
Qin Ziyi looked at him deeply, then stood up and left with a puff of sleeves.
"In this case, if I know about it, I will have people from Dali Temple to protect you. You can spend these seven days well."
This is his determination, and it will be over within seven days.
After Qin Ziyi returns, he will start investigating the Ministry of War.
However.
Go halfway.
Behind him, Cao Gongyun spoke again.
"Qin Shaoqing, the man with the scar on his face next to you is from Kaiyang! Only by dealing with him can I be safe and sound!
boom!
These words were like thunder, making Qin Ziyi's eyes widen.
He turned back abruptly.
"how do you know?!"
Cao Gongyun said coldly: "Hmph! This is what made me determined to kill that woman!
"Last night, I overheard the mother and son saying that when you take me away tomorrow on charges of corruption, that Scarface of Dali Temple will kill me and silence me."
Hearing this, Qin Ziyi fell into deep thought.
Scarface.
His name is Wang Hai.
He has been a member of Dali Temple for many years and is not his person.
The day before yesterday, when I learned about the death of His Highness Xiao Sizi, I took the initiative to ask Ying to join his death squad.
Seeing that Wang Hai had many years of experience and that he was indeed short of manpower, he agreed.
Now think about it carefully.
Why did Wang Hai, who had always been a fisherman, suddenly become diligent?
Indeed... puzzling.
"I know."
Qin Ziyi walked away, but remembered something halfway, and waved his sleeves and said: "Cao Sixun, I will send my trusted followers to protect you from now on."
Say it.
No more hesitation, leave immediately.
After returning, he immediately asked people to capture Wang Hai.
However, when Wang Hai saw that the situation was not good, he bit his tongue and committed suicide like the woman.
Qin Ziyi was still a little skeptical at first, but now she was even more sure.
But now more questions arise.
According to Cao Gongyun, Kaiyang left Chang'an three years ago, and Wang Hai was a native of Chang'an and stayed in Chang'an City when Kaiyang left Chang'an City.
Like Cao Gongyun, he would be a chess piece arranged by Kaiyang early on.
Cao Gongyun didn't know, only Kaiyang himself knew.
still……
Are there other high-ranking and powerful people in Chang'an City helping Kaiyang?
unknown.
in addition.
Another thing came back.
Today's action against the two mother and son was divided into two parts.
It was one of his plans for him, Qin Ziyi, to lead his government servants to deal with the woman.
Another plan was for Cao Gongyun to use a trick to deceive the mother and son, forcing one of them to leave his residence and go to the place where he knew the contact with the person behind the scenes.
The second plan was successful. After Xiao Yuan left home, ten Dali Temple government officials who were good at tracking followed Xiao Yuan. However, half of the way they were followed, they were all knocked unconscious by people wearing flying fish suits.
After waking up, there were notes next to the ten Dali Temple government officials, and there were only two words on them when they were opened.
【Ministry of War】.
These people in Feiyu suits, who are they? What is the purpose of informing the Ministry of War? !
"The water in this eucalyptus is getting deeper and deeper."
Qin Ziyi looked at the sky full of stars.
I feel more and more that this is not simple.
Or...
There is nothing simple behind those who dare to assassinate the current princess.
……………………
late at night.
There is a secret passage in Chang'an City.
A man in white with a mask, codenamed Jueshui, quickly walked into the most noble room in the secret passage.
"Mr. Kaiyang, something happened."
Jueshui looked anxious.
The words fell.
Kaiyang, who was still playing chess with him, was slightly startled.
"What's up?"
he asked.
Jueshui said angrily: "Jueyun can't be contacted! It was Cao Gongyun who told the secret!
"Jueyun has a lot of information about us, and we don't know how much information Cao Gongyun has. Mr. Kaiyang, the situation is not good, we should evacuate Chang'an City!
Kaiyang narrowed his eyes slightly.
betray……
This was something he didn't expect.
The original plan was to get rid of all the guards who participated in the assassination plan that night.
Then.
Cao Gongyun is also on the list of people who must be removed.
However, Cao Gongyun should not take action from his side.
If you take action.
There is a possibility of being caught by the tail, thereby touching his Kaiyang.
so.
According to the plan, when dealing with Cao Gongyun's chess game, Qin Ziyi should take him away and put him in Dali Temple Prison after learning about his corruption, and then Wang Hai would handle it.
The reason why Xiao Yuan and his son are not allowed to handle it is because Xiao Yuan and his son are still of great use, and Wang Hai is old and suffering from hysteria. He will die of natural causes soon. Killing Cao Gongyun and then committing suicide should be used as a way to use his last remaining energy. .
The only link is that Cao Gongyun died, and Wang Hai committed suicide. There is no evidence of his death, so Dali Temple has no way to continue the investigation.
Just wait for seven days for the storm to pass, and then you can escape.
However……
The information I got in the morning was a clue.
Qin Ziyi didn't know why, but she didn't take Cao Gongyun away, and tonight she learned about Cao Gongyun's rebellion.
Unexpected.
It was really unexpected.
At this time, Jueyun's death made them extremely passive.
I don’t know how much information the person who killed Jueyun got.
"The chess pieces on the chessboard will not move and are loyal friends, so the only thing you need to do is defeat the enemy. People, on the other hand, have an uncertain factor called human nature."
"Haha, is this human nature?"
Kaiyang's eyes flickered, and he felt more and more that human nature was really an elusive thing.
"Mr. Kaiyang! It's time for us to leave!
At this time, seeing that Kaiyang didn't respond, Jueshui continued to urge.
Kaiyang shook his head and said: "No."
"We wanted to leave, but that person didn't allow it. Haha, instead of leaving in embarrassment and being chased by that person, it would be better to finish the last game of chess."
"Let's see if I survive this game, or Dali Temple or the King of Chu can win this game!
Faced with a situation that was already out of control, Kaiyang smiled instead of panicking.
That smile that comes from the heart.
He seemed to be enjoying this embarrassing situation immensely.
"Jueshui, whether it's Dali Temple or the King of Chu, all they want is me. Please take the people away. I want to finish this chess game."
Kaiyang has no intention of retreating.
From the moment he entered Chang'an City, the capital of the Emperor, he had been prepared that he would not be able to escape intact.
Seeing that Kaiyang had no intention of leaving, Jueshui immediately took a deep breath and half-knelt down: "Mr. Kaiyang! Jueshui and everyone under his command are willing to play this chess game with you!
"Live, live together! Die, die together!"
Kaiyang heard the words and felt ripples in his heart.
"confirmed?!"
“Incredibly convinced!
"Hahahaha, okay!
Kaiyang laughed heartily, and then waved his hand and said: "Then you will live with me, live together! Die, die together!
"Let's see whether the heroes of Chang'an City are more skilled, or we can survive the desperate situation!
……………………
The Li family in Longxi.
Tonight, the five masters of the five surnames and seven families gathered together.
They discussed together about Xiao Sizi.
"Damn it! Assassination, he still assassinated the Lu family. Why did he assassinate the Li family brat who was just weaned? How can a brat affect the situation?!"
"That's right! Lu Yuntian's move was so perfect! It was so perfect!
"Maybe it was not an assassination by the Lu family. Today I got information from Dali Temple. They seem to be targeting Cao Gongyun, the chief of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. This person is not from the Lu family."
"Huh? It wasn't done by the Lu family? Then on the day of the assassination, why did Lu Yuntian mention the assassination of Xiao Sizi? How could there be such a coincidence in the world? He must be involved!
"That's right, even if it wasn't an assassination, Lu Yuntian was definitely involved."
"Haha, after spending a huge price and losing so many secret chess pieces, he didn't even succeed in assassinating Li Mingda. He really lost his wife and lost his troops. Lu Yuntian was so smart that he was so smart all his life."
"For this assassination, I settled the accounts for the Lu Mansion. The imperial court announced that more than 200 people from the nine clans would die in total. Just killing one Li Mingda would result in the loss of more than 200 people. Many of them were chess pieces placed around Li Mingda. I don’t know how much resources and time have been spent, and now not only the assassination has failed, more than two hundred people have died, but also they are being targeted by Li Shimin and the Dali Temple. Haha, what a loss outweighs the gains."
"So, it's fortunate that we didn't agree to Lu Yuntian's participation in the assassination, otherwise the number of deaths would have been much more than that."
The heads of the various houses were talking about it.
The matter of Xiao Sizi was constantly discussed. The reason for the discussion was to determine the policy and what the five surnames and Qiwang should do in this matter.
at the same time.
Lu family.
Main Mansion.
Since the failed attempt to assassinate Xiao Sizi, compared to the five surnames and seven famous families, everyone in the Lu family's main residence has been living in seclusion.
There is a trend of hiding from the world.
At this time.
In the main palace.
A housekeeper entered Lu Yuntian's room.
He reported: "Deputy Patriarch, there is a letter from our retainer in the south of the city. One of Kaiyang's three closest confidants, Jueyun, has been eliminated."
In Chang'an City, no matter what happens, you can know it instantly.
Even the Lu family can know the world affairs without leaving home.
This is the background of the Lu family.
"Dead? It must have been King Chu's hand."
Lu Yuntian made this judgment without asking for other information.
This blinded Jiawei who was about to speak.
He pondered for a while and then said: "Yes, this is indeed done by people from the Prince of Chu's Palace."
"Then Kaiyang is in trouble."
"No one can escape being targeted by King Chu's people, not even Qixing."
Lu Yuntian still has his iconic kind smile.
Jiawei thinks so.
As a close confidant of Lu Yuntian, he followed Lu Yuntian to witness with his own eyes how terrifying the people in the Chu Palace were.
"Yes, it depends on whether Kaiyang can find other means. Having said that..."
Jiawei thought for a while, then changed the subject and said: "Deputy Patriarch, our Lu family has dealt with all the whereabouts. Li Mingda will definitely not be able to find us. Why... Our Lu family wants to close the house!" ?”
"Just after Li Mingda failed to assassinate him and closed down the palace, a letter should have come from Dali Temple, saying that some people in Dali Temple were discussing whether... he was guilty of being a thief."
When Lu Yuntian heard this, he didn't take it seriously and still looked kind.
But this time he looked at the guard.
"Do you think that I'm closing the house to avoid those people who are investigating in Dali Temple? Or even to avoid Li Mingda?!"
Jiawei nodded without thinking, and seeing Lu Yuntian's calm face, he asked suspiciously: "Is it possible... there are other reasons?!"
Lu Yuntian nodded and said: "Yes, what I am worried about has never been about tracking down the Lu family for this assassination, but about the shadow of King Chu."
"The shadow of King Chu?" Jiawei was a little confused. After thinking for a while, he finally remembered who it was.
"Is he the master of the Chu Palace who protects Li Mingda? Our Lu family is avoiding him? Avoiding him alone?!"
As soon as he said it, Jiawei felt like he was going crazy.
The head of the Nuodalu family.
Not to mention hundreds of masters, there are still close to hundreds.
result……
There are hundreds of masters and many guards. Are you afraid of the shadow of King Chu alone? Is this possible? Is it realistic? !
Totally impossible!
However.
Lu Yuntian's answer in the next second confused him.
"That's right, just stay away from King Chu's shadow."
Lu Yuntian folded his hands and replied.
Jiawei was stunned for a moment, then said: "Master, why is this, my subordinate... I don't quite understand."
Lu Yuntian looked at the stars in the sky and sighed a little: "His martial arts alone is not afraid of him."
"But his most outstanding achievement is not only martial arts, but assassination."
"Do you know how the fifth head of our Lu family died?!"
Five masters.
Jiawei fell into memories and said after a while: "Isn't it a stroke?"
"No."
Lu Yuntian shook his head and said: "That was external rhetoric, but in fact, the real cause of his death was an assassination by King Chu's shadow."
What!
Death by assassination!
Jiawei's eyes widened instantly.
stunned!
Shock!
Unbelievable!
The fifth master of their Lu family had excellent martial arts and was once the number one master in the family. Everyone lamented that he was powerful in martial arts and strong, saying that he could kill the fifth master, perhaps only because of illness.
He actually died of illness, a stroke.
And now.
The deputy head of the family was actually talking.
It was the shadow of King Chu who assassinated him!
Shocking!
So shocking!
He couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Lu Yuntian saw it and didn't take it seriously. He continued to fold his hands and look at the sky full of stars.
"Assassination is a special skill. Any leader of a force who is seemingly secure in victory will also be defeated by his opponent because of his assassination and death."
"Assassination, even a king, looks at Li Shimin now, and looks at many kings at home and abroad in the past and present, and is still afraid."
"If he, the Fifth Master, had fought openly with the King of Chu's shadow, he would have a 100% chance of winning, but he died because of the poisonous assassination technique of the King of Chu's shadow."
"Even as strong as the fifth master, he could not withstand assassination. After his death, more than a hundred people in the Lu family branch of Lantian County where he was in charge were massacred by the King of Chu's people."
"I can't guard against assassination, and I can't die yet, so before I, Wang Yancun, one of the six lords of the Lu family, comes back, the Lu family will keep the news tight, just to avoid the shadow of King Chu."
Currently, most of the masters and managers of the Lu family have been taken away by the head of the family. He only knows that if he dies, the Lu family will be leaderless in a short time.
That would give the people in the Chu Palace a chance to seize.
Therefore, in order to avoid this result, we chose to close the government.
There were hundreds of people, just to avoid Jing Ke.
Lu Yuntian never felt ashamed.
This is also his character, cautious and prudent.
……………………
royal palace.
late at night.
Li Junxian was still sleeping, but his ears were getting more and more rustling, and he felt like mosquitoes were noisy.
"bother!
With a sigh of annoyance, Li Junxian changed his position to sleep.
But the noise was still ringing in my ears.
His mood became more and more irritable, and he stood up from the bed to drive away the mosquitoes. Only then did he realize that the source of the sound was not the mosquitoes, but came from outside the door.
Listen carefully.
"Li Junxian, Li Junxian..."
It's calling his name.
And this voice was extremely familiar to Li Junxian.
"Your Highness Xiao Sizi! Why is she here?"
Li Junxian was shocked.
Without hesitation, he immediately stood up and headed to the door.
He was seriously injured. Although this would affect his injuries, he still went forward without hesitation.
I really don’t want to see His Highness Xiao Sizi.
It's annoyance and fear.
Because His Highness Xiao Sizi almost died the day before yesterday.
The Queen placed great trust in herself, but she almost failed to protect His Highness Xiao Sizi.
Disgraceful of trust!
Even so, Xiao Sizi came here on his own initiative tonight, and he didn't dare to miss her. He stepped forward and opened the door with a creak.
Look down.
I found that little Sizi was quite dull. At this time, he was tiptoeing and holding a tray with several bowls on it.
"Li Junxian, come out! Sizi didn't disturb you!
Xiao Sizi whispered softly, very quietly.
If Li Junxian hadn't had good ears and listened carefully, he wouldn't have heard it at all.
Not bothering?
What do you think, Your Highness Xiao Sizi?
Li Junxian complained in his heart, but smiled on the surface: "No, the general is getting ready to sleep."
"Huh, that's good. I hope I don't disturb you."
Xiao Sizi patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately.
He was surprised and said: "Ah, Sizi was too loud just now! Sizi ran out secretly, Li Junxian, let Sizi come in first, and don't let the queen mother find out."
Xiao Sizi walked in quietly.
Li Junxian was shocked.
"Your Highness Xiao Sizi, you are running around again. What if something unexpected happens!?"
Little Sizi smiled and said: "Oh, it's okay! Sizi is protected by his second brother. He said he ran out secretly, but in fact it was the queen mother who asked Sizi to sleep, but Sizi did not sleep obediently and ran out."
Li Junxian heard this and looked out the window.
really.
There were two guards of the Prince of Chu's Palace standing outside with swords in their hands.
Li Junxian breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that they were from Prince Chu's Mansion, even if they were just two people.
"Your Highness Xiao Sizi, this is okay, but you must not run around in the middle of the night. It is too dangerous."
Li Junxian glanced at Xiao Sizi very complainingly.
Little Sizi stuck out her tongue and said in a milky voice, "I know! Come on, Li Junxian, eat."
"Hehe, Sizi brought this back specially for you. The Queen Mother said it is too late today and the children should go to bed early and bring it to you tomorrow."
"The queen mother is really hateful. Si Zi has obviously grown up. The second brother used to sometimes say that Si Zi is more mature than him. Humph! The queen mother is a bad person. Si Zi is obviously an adult and she always underestimates him. But these eaters Yes, it will stink tomorrow, how can you squeeze it tomorrow?"
Open the bowl.
Is it the fragrant hot pot, or the top-notch hot pot on the sixth floor of Chuhe Restaurant, where even the rich and powerful need to make a reservation to eat.
The hot pot was cold when it was brought back, but Xiao Sizi specifically asked the Chu Prince's palace guards to go to the kitchen to heat it up before bringing it to Li Junxian.
"This, His Highness Xiao Sizi, this... the last general..."
Li Junxian was flattered.
He hesitated, not knowing what to say.
"Oh, eat, eat, or you'll be cold if you don't eat."
Xiao Sizi ran out of his seat in an eccentric manner and pushed Li Junxian to sit down.
"Eat quickly, eat quickly."
She returned to her position, resting her chin on her hands on the table, looking at Li Junxian with longing eyes.
"good."
"The general is really hungry."
Li Junxian laughed, then took out the kuaizi and tasted the hot pot.
"delicious!
He kept eating, and as he ate, he cried.
I cried from the bottom of my heart, couldn't help it, and couldn't stop crying.
Crying while eating.
"Ah, Li Junxian! Don't cry, don't cry, drink water!
The little Sizi was so anxious that he thought the hot pot was too hot or spicy and made Li Junxian cry, so he quickly poured out a glass of cold water.
"Your Highness Xiao Sizi, I will... I will be fine, you don't have to worry."
“The hot pot is so delicious.”
Li Junxian choked with sobs.
"Ah? It's so delicious that you'll cry. Li Junxian, don't lie to Sizi. Just tell him if it's not delicious. Next time Sizi won't bring you something you don't like."
Li Junxian cried and laughed at the same time: "It's delicious. It's really delicious. It's the general's problem. If you eat delicious food, you will cry involuntarily. Your Highness, Xiao Sizi, doesn't need to worry about it."
After Li Junxian repeatedly emphasized, Xiao Sizi felt relieved.
Although Li Junxian was just crying, with tears mixed with smiles, and wolfing down hot pot, it was very ugly.
But Xiao Sizi doesn't think so.
She thinks Li Junxian is extremely handsome.
Of course, he wasn't as handsome as when he was protecting her.
"Hehe, if it tastes good, when the second brother comes back, Sizi will polish the second brother so that he can give more good seasonings."
"Hmph! The second brother has been hiding the hot pot from Si Zi. He was so angry that he drew circles and cursed him. He cursed him to come back quickly to accompany Si Zi. Then he took Si Zi to eat hot pot and brought it to Li I envy you."
