Three days later, Qingxin Building.

Li Luo sat at the table and drank tea, since the assassination of the palace, Li Luo seems to have changed as a person, taciturn, and no longer has the naughty appearance of the past.

Su Xue picked up Li Luo's scroll and put it away gently, looking at Li Luo worriedly, not knowing what the quiet young man in front of him was thinking.

Li Luo raised his eyes and glanced at Su Xue, and said in a deep voice: "Su Xue, go find Steward Li to come over." ”

"Yes." Su Xue answered and exited the door.

A few moments later, Li Luo looked at Steward Li quietly without words. Steward Li was not surnamed Li, his original name was Zheng Zhong, he worked hard in the palace, won the trust of Prince Chun, and gave him the surname Li and changed his name to Li Zhong.

Li Zhong has served left and right since Prince Dachun was young, he was originally a close guard in the palace, and when he came out of the palace and went to the palace, he has been with Li Chengye for 30 years, and he can be regarded as the elder of the palace.

"Mr. Li, sit."

"Don't dare, just stand still." Steward Li said respectfully.

"I heard that Manager Li has been in the palace for thirty years?"

"Yes, I have been serving the prince for more than 30 years."

"Well, I think Mr. Li must have heard about the affairs of the palace."

Li Zhong's heart moved, and he responded in a deep voice: "Don't dare to be a little prince, I don't know what the little prince asked?" ”

"Luo'er."

Li Zhong was stunned, glanced at Li Luo, and then looked at Su Xue on the side, and saw that Su Xue was also puzzled, and replied cautiously: "Luo'er? She's not ......."

"I know that Luo'er colluded with the thieves, and now the body is still on display in the front yard."

"The little prince doesn't know what to ask Luo'er, if the villain knows, he must know everything."

Li Luo stood up, walked in front of Li Zhong, and said word by word: "Before Luo'er left the palace, I was still in the palace, what happened to her?" ”

Li Zhong frowned secretly, he didn't expect that time had passed, and Li Luo would remember this incident.

Li Zhong sighed slightly: "There is nothing wrong, the villain remembers that Luo'er hurriedly took leave that day, saying that there was an emergency at home, and he wanted to go back, and the matter was in a hurry, and the villain did not dare to be arbitrary, so he specially told the mother, and the mother remembered that Luo'er was smart and diligent on weekdays, and she was ......."

"That's all?" Li Luo raised his voice and interrupted.

"That's all the villain knows, and the villain really can't figure out why Luo Er colluded with the assassin and betrayed the bone."

"Hmm." Li Luo replied lightly, and changed his words, "Steward Li is exquisite, and when I succeed to the throne, I should be able to sit firmly in the position of this butler." ”

Li Zhong felt a chill in his heart, secretly exclaimed that it was not good, and hurriedly nodded and said: "The villain is doing his best, and it is a blessing for the villain to be able to serve the little prince." ”

"But I don't know if I have this blessing."

Li Zhong was taken aback, his expression was whole, and he replied respectfully: "Little prince, I don't know where the villain's crime is, please make it clear to the little prince." ”

Li Luo said slowly: "I can remember that Luo'er is beside me, and others don't know her, do Steward Li think I don't know either?" Luo'er hurriedly took leave, and it was too late to even inform me, it was already a strange thing, Luo'er would not rebel against the seller even if he didn't do anything, how could it be like this if there was no big change, how could it be like this, how did you tell me to believe what you said! ”

Li Zhong touched the ground and said hurriedly: "Back to the little prince, Luo'er may indeed have other secrets, but the villain really doesn't know why she behaves like this." ”

Li Luo looked at Li Zhong quietly, and said calmly: "Steward Li, do you dare to kill me?" ”

Li Zhong was taken aback, hurriedly knelt down, and said in a trembling voice: "How can the little prince think like this, the villain has been in the mansion for many years, has been conscientious, and is even more loyal to the prince. ”

Li Luo was indifferent, Li Zhong looked up at Li Luo, Li Luo was staring at him, his eyes were calm, he couldn't see hatred or anger, he just watched quietly, as if he was looking at a table and a chair, lifeless.

Li Zhong broke out in a cold sweat in his vest, he knew early on that the little prince often practiced martial arts with the generals on the battlefield under Prince Chun, and it was normal to have some killing atmosphere, looking at Li Luo's gaze, Li Zhong didn't dare to suspect that Li Luo was just intimidating.

Li Luo took off his saber and pulled it out gently, the sword qi was cold and piercing, and it was a divine weapon.

coughed lightly and said lightly: "The name of this sword is called Xingshu, have you heard of Steward Li?" ”

Li Zhong glanced at the long sword in Li Luo's palm, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly, and said in a deep voice: "The villain naturally knows that the Xingzhu Sword is one of the seven great swords of Dagan. ”

Li Luoxiao smiled, gently put the Xingzhu Sword into the sheath, looked far away, and said coldly: "Steward Li has a unique skill, I can't win, and I don't dare to do anything to you today, after today, Steward Li, you can escape." ”

Su Xue exclaimed, in the past, Li Luo was gentle and elegant, even if he met with the people in the house, he was never domineering, quite amiable, everyone in the house loved Li Luo very much, how could he have seen Li Luo so domineering.

Li Zhong was stunned, cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and he said bitterly: "What does this mean little prince?" ”

"You are my father's confidant, and you are powerful in Prince Chun's mansion, so naturally you don't take me seriously. It's just that although I am young, I will become a prince one day, and I will not allow you at that time. ”

"The little prince is angry, the villain is just a mere subordinate, how dare he compare with the little prince, but the villain really doesn't know about Luo'er, and I hope the little prince will see it."

Li Luo sighed, and said quietly: "Steward Li, you are a smart person, I am not stupid, there is always a **** who will know the details of Luo'er's affairs, three years, five years, maybe it won't be so long, even if Steward Li can kill all the people who know the truth, I can also know the beginning and the end from my mother or father's mouth, and when that day comes, Steward Li, how do you think I should get along with you?" ”

"This, little prince, if you want the villain to die, the villain will never frown, the villain is loyal to the palace, and the sun and the moon can be seen."

"Steward Li, you have been in the palace for a long time in your early years, when did the affairs of the palace and the marquis of the palace only talk about one loyalty? I know that you are extremely loyal to the palace, although you and I have no deep friendship, but I usually respect you very much, so I have made it clear today that if you want to live, you should not stay in Prince Chun's mansion anymore. ”

Li Zhong was speechless for a while, and he became the head of Prince Chun's palace, accustomed to seeing the wind and waves in the government and the opposition, and didn't want to meet Li Luo today, and the domineering place was even more down, and the words were pressing, and no matter how much prevarication helped, he smiled bitterly: "Little prince, you are trying to force the villain to death." ”

"Steward Li, you are loyal to my father, why didn't Luo'er treat me like this, Luo'er colluded with the assassins, and I have no intention of rehabilitating her, but I should always let me know what happened. If one day something happens and it is difficult to argue, will not my father treat you like this? is also a person in the palace, life and death have a fate, but someone is concerned, and it is better to save a stick of incense during the Qingming Festival, which is better than being lonely. ”

Li Zhong was stunned for a moment, looked at Li Luo, and was speechless for a long time, there is such a master who doesn't know whether it is a blessing or a curse, a slave and a maid, in addition to mixing a bite of food, why don't you also want to have a master who can attach to the remnants.

Li Zhong sighed and said in a deep voice: "When the villain accompanied the prince in the palace, he also encountered such a thing, and the palace battle was even more dangerous, if it wasn't for the prince to save him, I am afraid that the villain's body bones would have been buried in which mountain and wilderness, the little prince, you and the prince are really like back then, the villain is luckier than Luo'er, he has lived for these years, he was born as a prince and died as a ghost in the palace, he has no regrets in this life, Luo'er can meet the little prince, although he dies, he has no regrets." ”

Li Luo felt a pain in his heart, bowed down and said, "Thank you Steward Li, the matter has come to this, you can get up and speak." ”

Li Zhong bowed and stood up, the little prince in front of him was like two people in the past. Li Zhong pondered for a moment and replied bitterly: "If the villain tells the little prince about this, he will also become an unfaithful and unrighteous person. ”

"Did my father command you to keep your mouth shut?"

"Exactly." Li Zhong simply said bluntly, and said, "The prince and the mother are worried that the little prince is sad, and they order everyone in the palace to be silent and not to leak the slightest rumor. ”

"I guess that's the same, can Steward Li tell me today?"

Li Zhong glanced at Su Xue on the side, bowed and said, "The villain still can't say." ”

Li Luo was not annoyed, and said with a faint smile: "Okay, it turns out that Steward Li wants to see me and my father and mother turn against me." ”

Li Zhong froze, opened his mouth, and did not speak. Li Luo said indifferently: "Not everyone in the palace is like Steward Li's loyalty, I was born in the palace, I know the severity, no matter what the reason for Luo'er's incident, it is a fact that there are foreign enemies, even if Luo'er survives, he can't argue." After saying that, he paused slightly and glanced at Su Xue.

said lightly, "Luo'er is not here, Su Xue is my only confidant, if today's incident spreads, I will kill her to protect you." ”
