() Li Chuluo did not answer, but gave her a lukewarm glance, very unaccustomed to the affectionate address in her words. Instead, Liansheng opened his mouth and responded to her doubts: "Brother is going to Liuzhou with us." ”

Li Qiuluo coughed lightly, his handsome and solemn face was like a lotus calyx, revealing flawless whiteness, and it was still a very solemn expression.

"The commander of the Liuzhou garrison was seriously ill, and he sent people to ask me to go for diagnosis and treatment many times, but I thought it was too far to go, so I shirked and refused."

After a pause, it seemed that even he didn't understand why he wanted to explain these things to her, but he still continued: "This time, they invited me to go with a medicinal herb as a reward, and it was difficult to refuse, I thought that the medicinal herb would be of some use to me, so I planned to go there." ”

Li Qiuluo narrowed his eyes, that medicinal herb is a lifesaver in Shuzhou, if he can control the source of medicine.

It's not unusual, although the court has a bad relationship with him, but Li Chuluo is not a person in the officialdom, even if he really wants to heal the commander of Liuzhou, there is nothing to blame, no one can control it. Besides, now, even today's saints are searching for the elixir of immortality among the people, and they are waiting for people to save their lives.

Thinking of this, Li Shiyu was slightly stunned, as if she suddenly remembered something, and her eyes darkened. She cleared her throat and swallowed the bowl of bitter medicine in her hand, only to feel that no matter how bitter it was, it seemed that it was unbearable.

She handed the bowl to Liansheng, and drank the slightly sweet loquat dew, taking advantage of this process to hide her gloom and depression well, not wanting to be exposed to others, but she didn't know that Li Qiuluo and Liansheng had already seen her uncomfortable in her eyes at this moment.

The two men, one big and one small, looked at each other, with the same expression, the same eyes, and neither of them spoke.

"Chulo, last time, for what did you promise to heal me for?" After Liansheng packed up the medicine bowl and went out, Li Shiyu pursed her lips hesitantly, and deliberately asked casually in a tone that sounded like a casual voice, and at the end, she added the person she really wanted to ask: "Oh, by the way, and Qi Yuan!" ”

"You actually want to ask me why I took the initiative to heal Qi Yuan, right?" Li Qiuluo's gaze quietly moved to the empty bowl in Li Shiyu's hand, and his tone indifferently debunked her intentions. Wait for him to raise his eyes again

, those dark eyes were covered with a layer of water, and the brightness was extremely eye-catching.

After those brilliances slowly dimmed, he slowly half-closed his eyes: "That's because, in the future, Qi Yuan's life is very important to deal with the Dog Emperor, and I also want to see what kind of expression the Dog Emperor will have when he sees Qi Yuan appear in front of him again!" ”

"You want to use Qi Yuan's life to blackmail the current saint?" Li Shiyu repeated it unconsciously, and suddenly coughed violently, coughing so much that her face was flushed, her stomach was churning for no reason, and she was almost retching. However, in the very short time of coughing, Qi Yuan's appearance instinctively flashed in her mind, and there was also a worried look in her heart.

She didn't know how Qi Yuan would be tortured or treated, but an arrogant person like Li Qiuluo might not be too kind to this competitor who had "sought power and usurped the throne".

What she couldn't figure out was that Li Qiuluo, as the future saint of all dynasties, turned his hands into clouds and turned his hands into rain, why was he willing to condescend to his dignity and have to do such a thing?

Li Chuluo sneered twice, his face was full of disdain, and he seemed to be very contemptuous: "If he wasn't the crown prince, maybe I would have intended to let him go, but since he ordered the killing of Concubine Shuniang, I should have expected that there would be today." ”

Seeing Li Shiyu's confused face, as if he really didn't know anything, he restrained his disdainful sneer, and raised his eyebrows slightly. Li Shiyu couldn't speak because of Fang Cai's cough, so she could only cover her lips and nodded, indicating that she understood.

Li Qiuluo opened his mouth lightly and continued, his dark eyes turned to Li Shiyu on the bed, and there was a sudden hint of cold ridicule in his eyes: "And you, in the past few years, if it weren't for my painstaking efforts to use warm food and tonics, with all kinds of rare medicinal materials, to expel the fetal poison brought from your mother's womb little by little without a trace, you would have been lying in the coffin a few times." ”

Hearing this, Li Shiyu was obviously stunned.

She has lived in the palace for more than ten years, but she said that she was weak and sick because she was murdered by someone back then and tasted its poison by mistake.

Before, when she heard this matter mentioned to others, she had also recalled it carefully, and felt that sometimes the meal seemed to be a little indescribable

Strange taste, she only thinks that the palace lady or the eunuch in charge is mean, and the food she sends is not very fresh, as long as she can make do with the entrance, it will be swallowed by the wind and clouds.

Now that I think about it, Li Chuluo must have been afraid that after she died, she would be used as an excuse by those who tried to rebel in Youzhou, so he reluctantly healed her.

However, after thinking about it again and again, she felt that something seemed to be wrong.

Since Li Chuluo wants to treat her, he can tell her in a righteous and bright way, in order to get her kindness, but why is he so sneaky and dare not show it in front of others?

Could it be that he was so cautious because he was afraid of the Tian family and was afraid that his coveting of Youzhou's military power would be known?

Yes, it must be!

For some reason, I suddenly remembered what he had said to her a long time ago......

No one wants you to live but me.

That's right, those who want her to die are for the sake of military power, but aren't those who want her to live also for military power?

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt a little indescribable bitterness, as if there was a little bit of bitter tail that loquat dew could not suppress from the medicine she had swallowed before, and it seemed that the bitter taste that was different from the medicinal juice churned from her stomach. I swallowed the bitter taste, but I didn't want to, and another itch welled up in my throat, and suddenly, she coughed as if she was about to die.

"So, I didn't take anything to heal you this time." Li Chuluo raised the corners of his mouth slightly, his eyes were silent as water, and he looked at her coughing non-stop, and even the flat tone did not raise the slightest ripple.

"Since Tian Qiuyue is reluctant to let you stay in Zhuxian Building as my slave, then, I will count this account on him, you promise to be a witness, in the future, I will definitely make him feel pain."

"He can't bear me?" Finally coughed, Li Shiyu lowered his eyes, and the hand under the brocade quilt grabbed the satin tightly, habitually picking it, and the expression on his face was very numb: "I promised to give him what he wanted, and he also promised to give me what he wanted, horizontal and vertical is just a transaction, for him, my value is probably only that." ”

"Really?" Li Qiuluo's thin lips pursed, and he glanced at her, his eyes were dark, as if he was suppressing something, and he just snorted lowly, as if he didn't believe it.
