After Li Ruyu listened, he couldn't say a word for a long time, because he thought of a very terrible fact: If in the west of the Western Regions, after the endless swamp of Dali, at the end of the Northern Barbarian Snow Mountain, there is also such a prisoner, then ......

The world is likely to be a cage.

What kind of cage is it?

In such a cage, there are hundreds of millions of living beings, who has such a skill, is an immortal?

Li Ruyu couldn't figure it out, maybe one day, after breaking this cage, all the truth would come out, and I was afraid that the truth of the alien would also be hidden under these prisons.

But are the other three sides really all imprisoned, and there is no world outside the world?

Li Ruyu finally understood the empress's intentions.

She is the king of Da Liang, she is unwilling to limit the world to Da Liang, if the world is a cage, she wants to go out, if the world is not a cage, she wants to know farther and see farther.

And these things can only be done if Daliang dominates the world: Beiban and Dali must be within the territory of Daliang.

Li Ruyu took a deep breath.

In this way, for her, for herself, and more likely for the world of prisoners, to rule the world, and then to look at the other three sides, if there are other worlds, then we go out.

If not, it's a cage, and what should we do then?

Li Ruyu didn't know, he couldn't imagine what would happen after he got out of this cage, would he die in the dark starry sky, in that case, it would be better to be trapped in the cage.

But what if this cage is really the handiwork of the gods, and it is a new world when it goes out?

People have to live to understand.

When the Master returns, everything will come to light.

Gathering his thoughts, he said to Yan Qing: "Take me to the north?" ”

Yan Qing's eyes were strange, and he didn't answer directly: "Your Majesty knows that you deliberately let Fan Fuzi go, and I don't blame you, but don't you think it's strange, Fan Fuzi just went to the north, and the Zhenbei Army was in civil strife." ”

The implication is that the civil strife in the Zhenbei Army is likely to be the handiwork of Fan Fuzi.

Li Ruyu smiled bitterly and was silent.

After coming into contact with the truth at the end of the East China Sea, Li Ruyu faintly had a feeling: maybe the appearance of the alien is closely related to it, and whether the alien will be the key to breaking the prison in it.

Perhaps letting Fan Fuzi go would be an extremely wise and prophetic thing.

Li Ruyu will go to the north, and the North Town Fusi Nanwei Si will be handed over to Fang Thirteen, this man who was born in Jiankang and grew up in Jiankang is quite chivalrous When the ten-mile pavilion sent Li Ruyu, Li Ruyu patted him on the shoulder like a little adult: "Zhong Xuan's matter is not pursued, you don't have to worry." ”

Li Ruyu is not stupid.

Zhong Xuan is hiding on the bank of the Qinhuai River, how could Fang Thirteen, who has three sects and nine streams in the house and has a lot of connections in Jiankang, not know, and the death of Fu Si Tiqi in Beizhen, Zhong Xuan knew the news as soon as possible, and only three people would tell him.

Himself, Amu and Fang Thirteen.

With just a little thought, he knew that Zhong Xuan and Fang 13 were connected, as for why, Li Ruyu vaguely guessed that maybe Fang 13 was also a stranger, and he was a stranger who knew Zhong Xuan's identity.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

Strangers, there are Zhao Lizhi in the world, Yue Pingchuan, Fan Fuzi only wish to have a red face for the rest of his life, there are also Xu Jiye's infatuated career, Xu Xiaolan, Mi Gonggong Chao heard the Tao and wished to die at night, but there are more masters, Zhong Xuan, Fang Shisan, and others who are unrestrained and only wish for prosperity and peace.

Fang 13 looked at Li Ruyu's back and smiled bitterly, it turned out that he knew everything.

……

……

Arriving in Kaifeng again, Li Ruyu was deeply touched.

On the same day, he stayed at the Yamen of the Beiwei Second Institute.

Since Li Ruyu stayed in Beiwei Er, this public office has been retained, although there is no horseman, but it is regarded as the property of Beizhen Fusi, just for the purpose of lodging.

It was the morning.

Li Ruyu asked Yan Qing to buy daily necessities, took Ah Mu out of the city, and went up the Bianhe River, zigzag, and came to Backwater Bay, intending to see if the grass mound saint was still there.

The house is still there, covered with dust.

The grass mound is still there, the Bianhe River is surging, and everything is as before.

It's just surprising that there are people on the side of the mound, two people.

A young man dressed in white and embroidered with a python.

Suddenly, it was Yue Dan, the third son who witnessed the sage's transformation into a grass mound here, and now he is the new king of the north, but his situation is more embarrassing than that of Yue Pingchuan.

Before Yue was single, there was a young man standing reading, wearing a long robe.

Seeing Li Ruyu coming, both of them were a little surprised, and when they saw Ah Mu behind Li Ruyu, Yue Dan suddenly tightened up, and couldn't help but hold down the sword on his waist.

Ah Mu was noncommittal.

Li Ruyu was also a little surprised, was Yue Dan's trip a vain attempt to let this saint come out to assist him, and said with a smile: "Does Lord Yue get what he wants?" ”

Yue Dan smiled bitterly.

He pointed to the bearded young man in a long shirt and said, "I accompanied Master Fan here." ”

Fan Fuzi?

Li Ruyu smiled in surprise and saluted: "Long admiration." ”

Fan Fuzi also smiled back, "Thank you Li Baihu for your mercy in the past, and I hope Li Baihu will not misunderstand here, I did not become a staff member of King Yue, but just came to pay tribute to this saint who fished with a straight hook." ”

Li Ruyu sighed, a little unconvinced.

Yue Shan sighed, "Whether you believe it or not, it's true. Presumably, His Majesty asked you to come to Kaifeng, also to confirm whether Xu Zhu was opposed, or to find out whether my Yue Dan would be opposed. ”

Li Ruyu asked rhetorically, "What about the facts?" ”

Yue Dan was silent for a while, and said frankly: "Fan Fuzi went north from Jiankang, I already knew, and I really wanted to ask Fan Fuzi to seek it, but unfortunately, Fan Fuzi did not want to be involved in the court battle again. ”

Hearing this, Fan Fuzi looked guilty, "But people are not as good as heaven, but they have fallen into the situation of Zhao Changyi, the prince of Xian'an." ”

Li Ruyu was surprised, "What do you say?" ”

Yue Shan thought about it, and felt that at this moment, he should give Lin'an a clear attitude, so he simply said bluntly: "Before, I asked Xu Zhu to oppose Yue, and then with the help of this turmoil, I completely pulled out my father's old ministers and eliminated the Zhenbei Army, so as to make the north stable, but no one expected that Xu Zhu actually did a fake show." ”

Li Ruyu couldn't cry or laugh, "It means that you were originally acting with Xu Zhu before, tempting the people who were dissatisfied with you in the old ministers of Prince Yue Pingchuan to jump out, but Xu Zhu was going to do what he wanted, and he really wanted to kill you and be cold?" ”

Yue Dan smiled bitterly, "That's true." ”

There was a pause, "If it weren't for General Yu Qiwen, I'm afraid that the Yue family would really be killed by Xu Xu's rebels by surprise, and it was also this time that we found out that Xu Zhu might be the person of Zhao Changyi, the prince of Xian'an!" ”

Li Ruyu was shocked inexplicably, "Zhao Changyi's hand reached out to the Zhenbei Army?" ”

How is this possible?

Xu Zhu is an old man of the Zhenbei Army, and he has made countless military achievements with Yue Pingchuan, and his career has no intersection with Zhao Changyi, so why did he become Zhao Changyi's person inexplicably.
