Chapter 489: A Difficult Choice

East Palace, Li Su's study.

Wu Cong said: "Big brother, the kidnapping of Qin Huaidao was indeed done by Harold, how should this matter be handled?" ”

Li Su asked, "Qin Huaidao didn't leak secrets, right?" ”

Wu Cong said: "No, but he has suffered a lot of crimes, these people are really ruthless, Qin Huaidao has suffered a lot of torture, and his body will not recover within three months." ”

Li Su said: "Qin Huaidao is good, and he deserves to be the son of Qin Shubao, the Duke of Hu Guo.

Then visit him for me, and tell him that the court will promote him to the rank of second duke, inherit his father's title, and reward him with 500 taels of silver.

However, tell him that the kidnapping should not be mentioned to the public. ”

Wu Cong nodded and said, "The concubine understands." Big brother, if Harold stays in Chang'an, I'm afraid it won't work, otherwise, let him return to Damascus. ”

Li Su said: "Well, that's fine. ”

Wu Cong said: "If it's inconvenient, I'll talk to Sheena." ”

Li Su shook his head and said, "It's not appropriate, it's easy to cause misunderstanding, so I'll talk to her personally."

They are all their own people, they must be honest, and if there is anything, they must communicate well and do not have suspicions. ”

That night, Li Su stayed in Sheena's room.

Hina has now fallen in love with tea in the Tang Dynasty, and she made tea for Li Su and chatted with him.

Li Su asked, "How is Harold doing?" ”

Hina said happily: "He came the day before yesterday, and he was very good in school, worked very hard, and made rapid progress. ”

Looking at Hina who was full of joy, Li Su didn't want to break the beautiful atmosphere in front of him, but sooner or later, this matter had to be said.

Li Su reached out to hold Sheena's white jade hand, looked at her trimmed delicate nails, and praised: "Sheena, your hands are very good-looking, tomorrow I will give you a few nail polishes, it will look better after applying them." ”

Hina said happily, "Your Majesty, great, thank you." ”

Li Su continued to play with her jade hand and said, "Sheena, time flies, in the blink of an eye, we have been married for almost three years. ”

Hina said: "Your Majesty, the concubine is very grateful to you, the time by your side is the happiest time for the concubine!" ”

Speaking of this, she held Li Su's big hand with both hands, kissed it, and then pasted it on her smooth face.

After a while, Xina raised her head and looked at Li Su, her eyes were full of tenderness, some excitement, and some shyness, and she said, "Your Majesty, the concubine will serve you to rest." ”

Li Su said, "Wait a while." Sheena, there's something I want to tell you about Harold. ”

Li Su told Harold what he did in Chang'an.

Sheena was unusually surprised, with a worried look on her face. After Li Su finished speaking, she knelt down and said eagerly:

"Your Majesty, Harold is guilty, but he is still a child, please forgive him."

Li Su stretched out his hand to pull her up and said, "Standing in Harold's position, there is nothing wrong with his heart towards his country."

However, what he did has seriously harmed the interests of Datang, which is a crime of espionage. ”

Hearing this, Sheena knelt down again, and she said with tears in her eyes: "The concubine knows, but Harold has been close to the concubine since he was a child, although he was not born to the same mother, but he is the closest person to the concubine, and I ask Your Majesty to forgive him." ”

Li Su had no intention of disposing of Harold.

Harold is an Arabian prince, and if he is disposed of, he will cause a lot of trouble.

Harold is still Sheena's younger brother, and this should also be taken into account.

Li Su pulled her up again and said gently: "I know, just for you, I don't plan to pursue his affairs." However, he could no longer stay in Chang'an, and it was better for him to return to Damascus. ”

Hina breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully: "Concubine thank you for your grace, tomorrow, I will let him leave Chang'an." ”

After finishing speaking, she looked at Li Su, with tears in her eyes, and stopped talking.

Li Su said: "Sheena, you don't have to say anything, I believe you." ”

Just now, Hina was really worried that this matter would affect her relationship with Li Su, and she was very scared in her heart, worried about losing the happy life she has now!

At this time, Hina's heart was extremely warm, her nervous mood relaxed, but she couldn't help crying loudly!

She held Li Su's hand, kissed it wildly, and cried and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine will always be your person, and for Your Majesty, the concubine is willing to give everything." ”

Li Su believed in her sincerity and stroked her hair with his hand.

Looking at the delicate face of Xina Pear Blossom with rain, Li Su couldn't help but pick her up and walked towards Luo Tent.

The candlelight flickered, and Hina wholeheartedly accepted Li Su's caresses, releasing all her passion.

The next day, Sheena sent someone to call Harold.

Harold has been in a bad mood lately. Since Qin Huaidao was rescued, he knew that things would soon be traced to him. His first feeling was to flee Chang'an.

But he couldn't just leave. For one, he was worried that Sheena would be implicated. Second, he could not explain to the caliph just like that.

The Tang army did not go to support Persia, but he provided false information to the caliph, which directly led to the caliph's decision-making mistakes.

Hemar's defeat was also directly related to Harold, who was in a bad situation when he returned.

Harold thought twice that he couldn't go back unless he could get more valuable information, such as the secret of artillery.

After listening to Sheena's words, Harold said: "Sister Sheena, I can't just go back, when I go back, my father will blame me, and Hemar will not let me go." ”

Sheena said: "Harold, you better go back, your brother-in-law is magnanimous and will not pursue you, but other ministers of the Tang Dynasty may not let you go." ”

Harold cried, "Sister, I am desperate now, and I can only die. ”

Sheena said, "If you go back, your father will blame you at most, and he won't do anything to you." ”

Harold said, "Sister, I'm not reconciled. My father finally paid attention to me, but I didn't fulfill his instructions. How can I just go back? ”

He cried for a while and said, "Sister, you are my dearest person, you can help me." ”

"How can I help you?" Sheena asked.

"The artillery of the Tang Dynasty is very powerful, and in the future, if we fight with the Arabs, our people will suffer.

You are also an Arab, you can't just watch the Arab warriors die under the artillery, right?

I have to get this secret, and you have to find a way to help me get it. ”

On the one hand, her dear husband, on the other hand, her brother, and the father behind her, Hina fell into a deep dilemma.
