The young emperor stood in his bedroom, looking out the window from time to time, walking back and forth in the dormitory, his face full of worry, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Your Majesty, Minister Li is outside... Something happens. At this time, the guard with a knife outside the door of the dormitory said.

"Quick, invite him in. The young emperor was overjoyed and shouted excitedly.

"Yes!" replied the sword-wielding guard.

After a while, the door of the room in the Young Emperor's bedroom was pushed open, and two guards with knives walked in with Minister Li.

"You go down first, I want to be alone with Minister Li. The young emperor saw that Minister Li's face seemed to be very pale, and his mental state was not very good, so he asked the guards with knives to go out first.

"Sit down, Li Aiqing. The young emperor walked to the table, took out two blue and white porcelain cups, and poured tea.

Minister Li walked over, but did not sit down, just stood straight and straight, and did not speak.

The young emperor felt a little strange, so he turned his head and carefully observed Minister Li, when he first saw Minister Li, the young emperor was too excited, so he didn't care about so many details, but he felt that he was very happy to see the living Minister Li, but now after calming down, the young emperor found that Minister Li was indeed wrong.

Minister Li's clothes were still the same official uniform, but they were full of stains and bloodstains, and the cuffs were already worn and tattered.

"Lee... Li Aiqing, damn it, that traitor is really getting more and more presumptuous, Li Aiqing, sit down, I will call the doctor to come and see your injuries. The young emperor was about to get up and leave, Minister Li suddenly grabbed his hand, the young emperor turned his head, and Li Aiqing shook his head.

"Okay, I'm not going, Li Aiqing, you have something to say, what's wrong with you?" The young emperor felt more and more strange, could Minister Li have been mentally stimulated by something, so that he can't speak now?

Minister Li looked around, and then, like a robot, moved step by step to the young emperor's writing table, picked up a pile of paper and a brush, and then began to write on it.

"Li Aiqing, what are you..."The young emperor felt that the situation was very wrong, so he immediately followed Minister Li to watch him write.

"Your Majesty, please forgive the old minister for being rude, seeing that you didn't kneel, just because the old minister's knees and thighs have been swollen by the big board, and he can't kneel. ”

"Ah, Li Aiqing!" After reading it, the young emperor immediately squatted down, lifted Minister Li's official uniform, and saw his bruised knees and swollen legs, the young emperor was very sad, and this attack was too ruthless.

"Your Majesty, please also forgive the old minister for speaking to you in this way, because the old minister's tongue has been cut off by them. ”

"Li Aiqing!" the young emperor burst into tears, and Minister Li seemed to have nothing to say and continued to write.

"Your Majesty, the family of the old minister, was also brutally killed by the traitorous minister, the old minister came today, just to say goodbye to you, the old minister's knee doctor has been checked, has been completely necrotic, can not kneel in this life, and the minister who can not kneel, is unable to gain a foothold in the court, this is a major crime of killing. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, Li Aiqing, I'll forgive you for your innocence. "The young emperor didn't expect that Prime Minister Dong Cheng would do things so desperately, this is a full house of beheading.

"If you do this, tomorrow Dong traitor will deliberately make trouble and embarrass Your Majesty. ”

"Presumptuous, this is my government, my country, how can he be a traitor here, I... The young emperor was suddenly speechless, because he knew that he had almost no real power, and if he started a war with Prime Minister Dong Cheng, his side would not be his opponent.

"Your Majesty, you don't have to disrupt your plans for the sake of the minister, you listen to the minister. Minister Li smiled, although he didn't smile well, and then he continued to write.

"Okay, Aiqing, please speak. The young emperor hurriedly said.

"For the sake of the great cause of the empire, the old minister is willing to go to the soup and fire, and he will not give up. So please don't feel sorry for the minister, the minister has a hunch, it won't take three days after I leave, and the traitor will come to take the minister's life, so Your Majesty, you should continue to be a good baby and wait for the time to come. ”

"Dong Aiqing, I can't give up. "The young emperor has been watched by Minister Li since he was a child, when the first emperor was still there, whenever the young emperor made a mistake, Minister Li would stand up to intercede and exempt him from punishment, Minister Li was not only the loyal subordinate of the young emperor, but also his relatives and his elders.

"Your Majesty, when that summoner returns, you will be able to train him, and if you can get his help, I believe that in a few years, you will be able to start a war with that Dong thief. "After Minister Li retired from the dynasty that day, he also went to investigate and found that Luo Xiu was strong and a key chess piece.

"Dong Thief's guy is very likely to make a move, you must keep the summoner by your side, today the old minister went to his mansion and saw him feeding fish with young birds, which shows his ambition. ”

"Yes, I know, Li Aiqing, don't write it, go and rest. The young emperor saw that Minister Li's hand holding the pen had been trembling, and it was shaking more and more, and said distressedly.

"It's okay, the old minister knows that his time is running out, and now he has to explain these things clearly, but it is also the old minister who is too worried, for so many years, Your Majesty, you have grown into an excellent emperor, and you don't need to worry about it. When Minister Li wrote the last few words, his hands were shaking and he almost couldn't recognize the last words.

"Your Majesty, it's late at night, please forgive the old minister for taking his leave, the old minister finally wants to go back to his hometown to have a look, and spend his last days there. Take care, Your Majesty. After finishing the last few sentences, Minister Li put down his pen, bowed slightly to the young emperor, and then walked towards the door step by step.

"Li Aiqing, take care, the empire will not forget your dedication, after I have exterminated the Dong thief, I will definitely bury you beautifully, just like the tomb of the great general, you are the protector of the empire. The young emperor choked up and said to Minister Li's back.

The young emperor looked at Minister Li who was struggling to move forward, and he wanted to step forward to help him, but he couldn't even do such a simple action, because when he got out of here, there must be an eyeliner to monitor him, and if he had a very intimate action with Minister Li, he would inevitably be noticed by Dong Thief.

Tomb of the Great General.

"It's going to open, you pay attention. Luo Xiu and his party walked to a stone door, which was made of blue bricks and looked very strong, Liu Wansu walked over and said to everyone.

"Let's go. Luo Xiu blocked Lu Jiaying and Chen Lianna behind him, and took out his sword himself, because they didn't know if there would be any hidden weapons that would fly out after opening the door.

There was a ring switch next to the stone door, and Liu Wansu put his hand forward and pulled it down hard.

The distance on the ground trembled, and at the same time, the stone gate slowly rose up with a "boom" sound.

After Liu Wansu opened the stone gate, he also ran to everyone's side, raised the big sword as a shield, and looked at the slowly rising stone gate, and everyone's hearts also rose to their throats.

The stone gate slowly rose up, and then stopped, and nothing flew out of it, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Luo Xiu also proposed to let his guardian spirit go in to open the way, but was vetoed by Liu Wansu, the situation of the twilight acupoint is still unknown, anyway, I heard that the road inside is very complicated, and it will not be able to wear out for a while, if Luo Xiu summons the guardian spirit early, he will consume his physical strength and encounter real danger, but he can't deal with it.

When the tomb door was opened, there was a stone brick passage, and the walls on both sides were glowing faintly, and there was still a permanent lamp a few meters away from the passage, although the light was very weak, but it could barely illuminate the passage.

"I'm going in. Lu Jiaying whispered.

"Hmm. Luo Xiu nodded, holding a lamp in one hand and a sword in the other, ready to step into this passage.

"Wait, you're unprofessional at first sight, give me the light. Liu Wansu suddenly stopped Luo Xiu's movements, then took the lamp in his hand, half-squatted, took out something like a stone, threw it in, and then took the lamp to illuminate the stone bricks at the bottom of this passage.

"Well, it doesn't look like there's anything going on, so be careful, everyone, follow me. After Liu Wansu checked for a while, he nodded with satisfaction, and then walked into the passage step by step.

"This guy can't be a professional grave robber. Lu Jiaying couldn't help but say when she saw that Liu Wansu's movements were so professional and skillful.

"If he was a professional grave robber, he would be fine now. Luo Xiu smiled, and then led everyone to carefully keep up with Liu Wansu's pace.
