It's winter, and it's a little cold.

Li Xuanba hid in the carriage, wrapped his body tightly, and the carriage itself also made some measures to prevent the cold wind from blowing in, but Li Xuanba still felt cold, cold from the heart.

The soldiers sent by Li Yuan were left in the county, and when the wounded recovered, they would return to Li Yuan's side, and the news of the attack on the princess would also reach Li Yuan's ears through them.

After resting for the night, the county commander sent someone to modify a carriage overnight, which was extremely comfortable, and at this time it was in front of Li Xuanba, protected by some officials and urgently transferred garrisons, and rushed towards Luoyang.

Since that conversation, Yang Ling has not looked for Li Xuanba again, and Li Xuanba naturally did not take the initiative to find her. The two carriages were always at a distance, and it would be difficult to tell that the two carriages were together if it weren't for the fact that the guards of the two carriages would talk a few words when they arrived at the inn.

The attack on the princess happened suddenly, Li Xuanba didn't have time to think about it, so he was summoned by the princess, although he finally persuaded the princess to hide His Majesty, but Li Xuanba knew in his heart that his reasons were not sufficient, and the princess might just return his favor. And although this matter can be concealed for the time being, sooner or later His Majesty will know about it.

At that time, if Li Yuan investigates the matter clearly, Yang Guang may not pursue it anymore, but can Li Yuan really find out?

After the incident, Li Xuanba instinctively excused the Li family, and now that he calmed down, Li Xuanba began to sort out his thoughts and think about the ins and outs of this matter.

First of all, why did you assassinate the princess? If successful, what will it lead to?

No matter who the mastermind is, as long as the princess is attacked and killed, the Li family will inevitably be unable to get out of the way, and it is likely to face the danger of extermination. But if it was these two types of people, they would have no reason to let Li Xuanba go, let alone leave because the princess hid in Li Xuanba's carriage.

After careful calculation, Li Xuanba shook his head, feeling that this possibility was very small.

In the same way, those people can't be thieves who have fallen into the grass. Attacking the princess is a capital crime, they are thieves in the mountains, just to survive, how dare they risk their lives to do such a thing? What's more, if they were really thieves, their arrows would not deliberately avoid Li Xuanba's carriage.

Li Xuanba even thought that this matter might have been designed by Yang Guang himself, in order to weaken Li Yuan's rights, so he pretended to assassinate the princess, and then blamed Li Yuan. But after thinking of this possibility, he smiled self-deprecatingly, and secretly said that he had read too many stories. If Yang Guang really wanted to weaken Li Yuan, he didn't need to go through this matter at all, just find a reason.

At this time, Li Xuanba began to regret that he had chosen science and engineering at the beginning, and he knew almost nothing about history, otherwise he would not be like now, and he would not be puzzled.

As it got dark, the two carriages stopped at a post station, where officials arranged for the group to stay and eat. The princess has a noble status, so she naturally has a special place to eat and rest. Li Xuanba is also a loyal and brave guard appointed by the emperor himself, and the officials of the post station did not dare to slack off, so they assigned him a room alone.

Li Gou and Li Zhu were originally assigned to live with other people, but Li Xuanba was worried that they would not be used to it, so he brought the two into his room. The two of them spread a quilt on the ground, and lay down with a heavy heart, unable to sleep.

Li Xuanba couldn't sleep either, and after a day of thinking, Li Xuanba only wanted to understand one thing: those assassins probably didn't want to really kill the princess.

After ruling out all possibilities, Li Xuanba felt more and more that the princess hid in her carriage, and the group of assassins did not shoot arrows at her carriage, not because they were worried about hurting themselves, but because they were worried about hurting the princess. The princess's carriage could block sharp arrows, but his carriage could not, and if he shot it with random arrows, he was afraid that all three people in the carriage might die.

"It turns out that I am alive and she is still credited." Li Xuanba muttered to himself.

Li Gou and Li Zhu have not slept and their hearing is excellent, Li Zhu doesn't like to speak, so Li Gou said: "Childe, have you thought of who attacked us?" The two of them were silent all the way, and they kept thinking about today's events, but like Li Xuanba, they didn't get anything.

"You haven't slept yet." Li Xuanba sat up and said, "What do you think about the attack on the princess?" ”

"I thought about it for most of the night last night, and I thought about it all day today, the villain is stupid, and he really can't connect those traitors with any force." Li Gou said with a bitter face, and Li Zhu also shook his head.

"I can't even think of you, how can I think of it." Li Xuanba leaned his body against the wall and continued: "But the purpose of this matter is not to assassinate the princess, as for what it is for, maybe only by catching those people can we know the answer." ”

Li Zhu's body trembled slightly, but there was no light in the room, and Li Xuanba and Li Gou didn't notice it.

"But I have already asked Her Royal Highness the Princess, she will not tell the emperor about this for the time being, you can rest in peace." After chatting for a while, Li Xuanba knew that the two had not rested well recently, so he said a reassuring word and asked the two to rest earlier. Li Gou and the others were indeed tired, and after answering, they fell asleep, and from time to time, the room remembered the sound of snoring.

Li Xuanba also lay down, but he couldn't fall asleep.

After chatting with Li Gou just now, Li Xuanba's heart calmed down a lot, and he suddenly thought of Yang Ling.

Yesterday, I saw Yang Ling's real body, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, her body is not yet fully developed, but her facial features are exquisite, her face is small, and her body is well-proportioned, she will definitely be a beauty embryo in the future.

The last time Yang Ling looked at him, Li Xuanba was very familiar with it, and in the past, the person he cared about the most also looked at him with that kind of look before he died. This kind of look represents renunciation, represents abandonment.

Li Xuanba didn't know why Yang Ling liked him or that idiot, but after seeing that look, Li Xuanba had already made up his mind that no matter what, he must get Yang Ling.

"If it was you before, I would have stayed away." Thinking of the question asked by Yang Ling, Li Xuanba said in his heart: "Now the world thinks you are ugly, but here with me, you are the most beautiful woman." ”

Thinking of Yang Ling's so-called illness, he couldn't gain weight just by eating, and the corners of Li Xuanba's mouth couldn't help but curl.

What kind of disease is this?

Hundreds of years later, this is not only not a disease, but the best gift from God to a woman.

Traveling at sunrise and stopping at sunset, Li Xuanba gradually forgot about the attack on the princess, talked and laughed with Li Gou from time to time, and spent most of his time reading in the carriage.

"Childe, Luoyang has arrived." On the fifth day after the attack on the princess, when Li Xuanba finished reading the last book, Li Gou said by the carriage.

"What a nice day!" Li Xuanba lifted the curtain on the left, looked outside, thought for a long time, and sighed.

"Well, it's a nice day." Li Gou agreed.
