Li Mo and Su Xiaorou both laughed, and the three of them walked into the restaurant together.

Seeing that Liu Yangfeng and Nian Nian looked exactly the same, Han Qi also showed surprise on his face. Su Xiaorou officially introduced Liu Yangfeng to Li Mo and Han Qi again, and also told Liu Yangfeng Li Mo's true identity.

Liu Yangfeng exclaimed: "It turns out that you are my brother Rui's eldest brother, disrespectful and disrespectful." ”

Li Mo asked, "Do you know my second brother?" ”

"Haha, of course, he's still my sworn brother. He and I don't know each other, so it's so good that I don't have anything to say. Liu Yangfeng said with a smile.

The four of them ordered food again and sat down to eat.

Li Mo asked, "Xiaorou, Yangfeng, how did the two of you meet together?" ”

"Alas, yesterday, she sat alone in a small noodle shop and cried, seeing such a beautiful girl crying all the time. I couldn't bear it, so I took her back. Liu Yangfeng said with a sigh.

Hearing Liu Yangfeng's words, Li Mo held Su Xiaorou's hand tightly again, full of pity: "Xiaorou, don't be so stupid in the future, run away and sit elsewhere crying alone." ”

Su Xiaorou nodded lightly, thinking of Li Rui, her mood couldn't help but dim again and said, "Mo, the second prince has returned to the palace, I don't know if something will happen?" ”

Li Mo's face changed: "Second brother has returned to the palace?" When was this? ”

"Just yesterday, he heard that my third brother became the emperor...... He said that he wanted to go back to the palace to find my third brother, I was really worried......" Su Xiaorou said timidly, lowering her head.

When it came to this topic, she always felt very unnatural in front of Li Mo, as if she had done something sorry for Li Mo.

"The second brother is really impulsive, he went to the palace like this, he didn't even think about it, maybe he couldn't solve any problems, but would it bring trouble to himself?" Li Mo frowned and said.

"Childe, what should we do now? The second prince has returned to the palace, we have to go back to see the situation, we can't let the second prince take risks alone. Han Qi said.

"Han Qi, be careful when you speak in the future, don't mention the name of the second prince again." Li Mo looked at Han Qi and said stoply.

Han Qi nodded and said, "Yes, Childe." I'll remember to call him Rui Gongzi later. ”

Li Mo groaned and said, "I didn't want to go back to the capital to meet Su Junchu so soon, but since the second brother has gone to the palace, I can't sit idly by, I have to go back and see the current situation of the second brother." It's just that going to the palace like this will definitely not work, and I estimate that we are all the targets that Su Junchu will focus on dealing with now. Therefore, the second brother must be found, but how to find him, we have to find another way. ”

"Brother Mo, if it's inconvenient for you to come forward, then I'll go. Anyway, I was going to the capital to find Niannian. Brother Rui is also my sworn brother, and I must help with his affairs. Liu Yangfeng said on the side.

Li Mo thought for a while and said, "That's okay, Yang Feng, then I'll leave the matter of finding the second brother to you first." ”

Han Qi asked, "Childe, then what should we do now?" ”

"Peach Blossom Mountain will definitely not be able to go back now, let's find a hidden place to live first. According to my inference, all the troops in the capital must have been replaced by Su Junchu with his men. If we want to build our own forces, we can only start with local forces. During this time, you should first secretly search for and contact my reliable old generals, and as long as they are still alive, don't leave any of them out. ”

"Han Qi understands, then I found them, should I let them report to Gongzi immediately?" Han Qi agreed and asked again.

"No, you must not let them come to me at this time. During this period of time, Su Junchu had just seized power, and the vigilance and precaution of all parties must be strict and cautious. If they really come to me for refuge, they will inevitably make a big disturbance and attract Su Junchu's attention. You get in touch with them, you just need them to know what to do, and let them each train their troops in their own territory, and don't waste their troops. We can only brake quietly now, secretly recuperate, even if we really want to avenge the loss of the country, we are not in a hurry for this moment. I'm not going to do anything stupid about hitting a stone with an egg without being absolutely sure. When the time is ripe, I will naturally go to a head-to-head battle with Su Junchu. Li Mo said calmly.

Su Xiaorou sat on the side and listened silently, at this time her eyes were full of uneasiness, she looked at Li Mo and whispered, "Mo, do you really want to fight with my brother?" If so, I'll go and persuade my brother ......"

Li Mo shook Su Xiaorou's hand and gave her a relieved and warm smile: "Xiaorou, don't worry, no matter what, I won't kill your brother." Because of you, I will negotiate with him in the most peaceful way. What do you want to persuade your brother, what do you want to persuade him? Now that he's an emperor, there's no way he's going to listen to you. If you go, maybe he will stay in the palace and become a bargaining chip to restrain me in the future. Therefore, there is no need for you to go back to the palace now, and I am reluctant to part with you again. ”

Su Xiaorou nodded and said, "Then I'll listen to you, I'm not looking for my brother." However, if I have the opportunity to meet him in the future, I will definitely persuade him to take the initiative to return the throne to you. Mo, in fact, my brother is very kind by nature, I think he will figure it out one day. ”

Li Mo smiled faintly when he heard this: "I know your brother very well, he has advantages that many people don't usually have. And he has always been a strong-willed, extraordinarily serious and persistent person. In the past two days, I have sometimes calmed down and thought, if he becomes the emperor and can care about the people, the country and the people, I may not have to change this country back. After all, if a war is waged, it will devastate the lives of the people. That's what I didn't want to see. It's just that his methods of seizing the country are too sinister, and I want to teach him a lesson no matter what. ”

Liu Yangfeng looked at Li Mo and said with admiration on his face: "Brother Mo, you are really superior. Not only is it full of money, but also broad-minded. If you become the emperor in the future, I, Liu Yangfeng, will definitely go all out to support you! ”

Li Mo patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Yangfeng, I'm also very happy to make such a friend as you today." Now, you go to the capital to find your sister Niannian, and by the way, help me find out the news of the second brother, and we will have a date later. ”

Several people went their separate ways at the moment, Han Qi and Liu Yangfeng left separately, and Li Mo took Su Xiaorou to a hidden place that was not easy to find, and stayed there for the time being.

And in the palace, since that night, Nian Nian and Su Junchu have entered a state of continuous cold war.

No matter how Su Junchu tried to redeem himself, Niannian's attitude towards him was always cold, and he never said a superfluous word to him again.

Sometimes Su Junchu couldn't help but miss Nian Nian, and when he went to Nian Chu Palace, Nian Nian would still politely call him the emperor, his eyes were cold and distant. Then the two of them were relatively speechless, what Su Junchu said, Nian Nian was lazy and indifferent.

He wanted to stay there, but that was even more impossible. Because now, whenever he wants to show a little closeness to Niannian, Niannian will say coldly: "Please don't touch me, the emperor." ”

The relationship between Su Junchu and Nian Nian suddenly dropped from high temperature to freezing.

Nian Nian, she couldn't forgive Su Junchu for being so ruthless and unrighteous to Li Mo and Li Rui, she never wanted to stay in this luxurious palace again. She always thought that one day she would be able to leave here to find Li Mo and Su Xiaorou.

However, Su Junchu can be said to know Nian Nian's thoughts well. What he was most worried about was that Nian Nian would sneak away from him.

Therefore, by Niannian's side, there are a large number of palace maids accompanying her every day. Nian Nian wants to act alone, it's very difficult, it's very difficult.

Moreover, Su Junchu also personally instructed the generals and guards guarding the palace gate, without his accompaniment, the queen mother could not be allowed to leave the palace alone.

Nian Nian was anxious and angry for a while, but she was helpless.

Today, the palace is particularly lively. The floor was covered with a red carpet, and the roof was covered with colorful lanterns. Everywhere is full of lights, people are noisy, and it is a lively and festive scene.

It turned out that this was the king of the neighboring Yueyang State, Zahan, who personally came to visit the new monarch of the Ning Dynasty with a generous gift.

Although the Ning Dynasty was only established at the beginning, it was well governed by the new emperor's determination to forge ahead. The national strength is stronger than ever, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the country is prosperous and strong, attracting the envy and admiration of countless neighboring countries.

For a time, there was an endless stream of foreign envoys and even kings of various countries who came to the Ning Dynasty to worship and pay tribute and learn scriptures.

In the richly decorated palace banquet hall, the guests are full of guests.

Su Junchu, the son of the Ning Dynasty, led a group of his intimate courtiers to sit opposite each other with the monarch of the Yueyang State, Zha Khan, and talked happily and talked very warmly.

It's just that careful people will find that between Su Junchu's seemingly happy eyebrows, there is a thick melancholy that cannot be dissolved.

For the foreign monarchs who came to visit in friendship, Su Junchu could not help but accompany him personally. However, in the bottom of his heart, it was really bitter.

During this time, he worked hard almost every day, trying to make Nian Nian happy every day, and he had tried his best to ease his relationship with Nian Nian. Even, he knew that Nian Nian liked to go out of the palace to play, so he did not hesitate to put down his busy government affairs and personally accompanied Nian Nian out of the palace to play a few times.

However, even after leaving the palace, Nian Nian was still indifferent to him. This time, Nian Nian seemed to be determined not to accept him anymore.

Even if he became the emperor, he couldn't get the forgiveness of his beloved woman. Su Junchu's heart, how can he be happy?

When the wine was in full swing, Zha Khan suddenly said: "The country has also brought another generous gift to the emperor today, and the son of Ning Dynasty is young and promising, and he will definitely like it when he sees it." ”

Su Junchu smiled faintly and said, "The gifts brought by your country this time are rich and valuable enough, so there is no need to be polite." ”

Zahan laughed: "Haha, the emperor hasn't seen my gift yet, why do you say such a prevarication?" This gift is a peerless treasure of our Yueyang country, and I guarantee that the emperor will love it when he sees it. ”

As he spoke, Zahan turned his head and said to the entourage standing beside him, "Bring Xue Ji over to see Ning Chaotianzi." ”

After a while, I saw a veiled girl in red walking in with Yue Yangguo's entourage.

Zahan clapped his hands, and immediately, a heart-stirring music rose softly.

The girl's long sleeves danced, and countless delicate petals gently flew between the heavens and the earth, and the refreshing fragrance of flowers was intoxicating. With the sound of music, the girl's dancing posture is also fast and slow, the jade hand is waving, the slender feet are light, the clothes are fluttering, and the delicate body is like cotton, like a Lingbo fairy. The hall burst into applause, and the sound of surprise was endless.

After the dance, Zha Khan called the girl who was dancing and sweating and said, "Xue Ji, open your veil and let Ning Chaotianzi take a look at the number one beauty of our Yueyang country." ”

Yukihime slowly lifted the veil that covered her face, and for a while, the people sitting in the main hall let out a burst of amazement.

I saw this girl's beautiful long hair, slender body, charming waist, flower and moon appearance, white skin, ice and jade. The light red lips and the flushed face exude the vitality of youth, like a budding bud, and like a beautiful fairy who does not eat fireworks and descends from the heavens.

Seeing this girl, Su Junchu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Because of her stunning appearance, she looks a little similar to Su Xiaorou, but she is more amorous than Su Xiaorou. Seeing her, Su Junchu reminded him of his sister Su Xiaorou.

Seeing that Xue Ji's appearance had caused a sensation in the audience, Zahan immediately laughed: "Xue Ji, quickly toast the emperor." From now on, you will be the woman of Ning Chaotianzi. ”

When Xue Ji herself came here, she was reluctant to hear that she was going to be sacrificed to the emperor of the Ning Dynasty. But now that he saw that the emperor of the Ning Dynasty was such a handsome young man, he was overjoyed at the moment, and walked over with a wine glass to toast Su Junchu.

Su Junchu excused himself and said: "Thanks to the kindness of the Son of Zahan, I already have a flower-like queen by my side, and I don't need more women." Xue Ji is the first beauty in Yueyang Country, so please bring it back by yourself. ”

He didn't drink the wine that Yukihime handed over, and Yukihime had to stand aside awkwardly.

Zahan laughed heartily again: "I have heard for a long time that the queen of the Ning Dynasty is beautiful and fragrant, and her demeanor is thousands, and she has a deep relationship with the emperor and his wife, and she raises her eyebrows. I wonder if I will be lucky enough to invite the noble queen to meet here today? ”

Su Junchu groaned slightly, feeling a little embarrassed.

Because with the current situation between him and Niannian, he knew that Niannian would definitely not be willing to come out to see this son of Zhakhan. But in the face of Zahan's warm invitation, it was difficult for him to refuse directly.

After a little hesitation, Su Junchu said to Zong Hua, who was standing beside him: "Go to Nianchu Palace and invite the queen mother to come over, just say that the son of Zahan of Yueyang Kingdom is visiting, please come and sit down for a while." ”

Su Junchu said this, secretly hoping that Zong Hua would really invite Niannian over. In front of so many foreign distinguished guests, maybe he and Niannian have one more chance of reconciliation.
