Chapter 525: The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings
Seeing that the small raindrops had fallen, and there was a tendency to get bigger and bigger, the gate of Xian Wang's Mansion opened, and Xuanyuan Yichen, Liu Qingyan and others jumped off the horse, and just walked in a few steps, but someone inside immediately walked out quickly, obviously greeting them very happily. This person is naturally the person Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan have known for a long time in their hearts, and he is also their old acquaintance - Gonggong Li!
I haven't seen him for two years, although I already knew that it was Gonggong Li, but when I really saw it with my own eyes, Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan's hearts were somewhat unexpected and refined. After all, this was the first person they had seen from the capital after being here for so long. I haven't seen each other for two years, and Grandpa Li doesn't seem to be getting old at all. And it seems that perhaps without Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan, the two people who make Gonggong Li very embarrassed and troubled, he looks more energetic.
Gonggong Li seems to be the same, he saw the first glance of the idle king and the idle princess, and then saw the baby holding hands with them and jumping together, and the slightly cloudy eyes clearly revealed the meaning of happiness and missing. However, when he looked at it twice, his eyes changed, and they changed to the usual dodgy and cowardly looks. It seems that in fact, he doesn't want to come here so much, and he doesn't want to see King Xian and Princess Xian so much.
Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan actually have similar thoughts in their hearts, after the joy of reuniting after a long absence, their hearts are still the same old opinion, every time Gonggong Li comes, there must be no good thing. This time, of course, it won't be an exception!
If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, you are talking about Gonggong Li. He brought another holy decree, which was expected by Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan, but after reading this holy decree, they couldn't be sure whether it was good news or bad news this time. Because, the holy decree said that King Xian and Princess Xian would return to Beijing immediately!
Xuanyuan Yichen was not in a hurry to take this question, but asked with a faint smile: "Presumably Gonggong Li knows, the original agreement between this king and the emperor was that he would come in three years, and now that it has only been two years, why did the emperor edict this king to return to Beijing?" ”
Gonggong Li said with a smile: "The emperor has long missed King Xian, and now is the time to walk long distances in spring, so the emperor sent slaves and maids to deliver the decree." ”
"It turns out that the emperor misses this king." When such a reason is said, whether it is Gonggong Li who said this, or Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan who listened to this, they all felt that this was really a funny joke in their hearts. Therefore, the originally faint smile on Xuanyuan Yichen's face is indeed like a flower, showing signs of more and more blooming, "I haven't seen you for two years; Gonggong Li is getting better and better at talking. ”
"Slaves don't dare!" Gonggong Li hurriedly lowered his head, he didn't want to or dare to look at Xuanyuan Yichen again, he said goodbye to this feeling for two years, and after just saying a few words, he came back. In the past, in the capital, even if the palace was not far from him, and the emperor's backer was behind him, what King Xian wanted to do to him was actually just a matter of words and gestures. The so-called debts are not pressing, lice are not worried, the idle king has long been a thorn in the emperor's eyes, even if there is a Li Gonggong, in fact, it is nothing more than that. Now that he has come to the border, this is simply the territory of King Xian, and Gonggong Li has no protection at all. His heart was also beating a drum, and it was time for him to tell him everything he knew a little more.
Xuanyuan Yichen didn't force him, and gave him a certain amount of time to think, looking at him, smiling faintly, in his deep eyes, it seemed like two deep pools, and he couldn't see through what he was thinking in his heart. When Gonggong Li was still hesitating, Xuanyuan Yichen suddenly spoke again: "What, does Gonggong Li have anything else to say to this king?" ”
Xuanyuan Yichen's understatement seems to be more relaxed than when he chatted with the people not long ago. It's just that before he finished his words, the first and fifteenth and Xiao Yue had already quietly approached each other. Gonggong Li secretly squinted at them, obviously seeing that they didn't move, and somehow got behind them.
Gonggong Li secretly gritted his teeth, speculating in his heart that if he hadn't seen each other for two years, the martial arts of these people had grown a lot. Now is still the time to "salute first", or don't wait for the other party's "rear soldier", the person who knows the times is Junjie, Gonggong Li sighed for a long time, and finally decided to tell the truth.
In fact, to put it bluntly, it's not a secret that can't be guessed. King Xian is thriving here, and the emperor has also heard about it. Whether it is envy or jealousy, the emperor does not allow it. What's more, the emperor also knows that almost all the people and soldiers here are looking at the idle king, and the idle king is even more responsive, as if he has become the emperor here, which is absolutely not allowed by the emperor. The emperor may feel that instead of letting King Xian gradually evolve into a bigger and bigger threat here, it would be safer to return to the capital and be under his nose!
Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan glanced at each other, but it was not too unexpected for them, but they were affirmed again from Gonggong Li's mouth. It's just that at the beginning, it was said that three years would be three years, but now it is said that two years is two years, and all the words are said by the emperor, although he is the emperor, but the two of them don't necessarily have to listen to it.
The smile on Xuanyuan Yichen's face was as short as a flash in the pan, and soon disappeared, turning into a look that made Gonggong Li even more unpredictable, so he said: "Gonggong Li, you said that if this king and the princess don't go back, what will happen to the emperor?" ”
Gonggong Li was stunned at first, but then he was shocked, what will happen to the emperor? If the emperor's mood is better, the big deal is to send someone else to issue the holy decree again. It's not much of a problem to come once and come twice. However, if the emperor is in a very bad mood, it is estimated that it will not be a person who will be sent out again, but an army, and even if they are tied, they will be tied back. Please don't move, then use the robbery. However, in this process, if the Fa can be corrected on the spot, maybe after the emperor knows about it, his mood will definitely become better than ever. It's just that the ending of the idle king is not very certain, but the ending of his father-in-law Li has long been doomed. There is no other way out for him but to die!
In Grandpa Li's ears, Xuanyuan Yichen was not asking "what will happen to the emperor" at all, but rather bluntly and dangerously asking "What will happen to Grandpa Li"!
What about the Li Gong Guild? For a person like Gonggong Li, who is quite smart and very conscious, isn't this answer obvious?
As a result, Gonggong Li, who was active-minded, had already imagined for himself what would happen if he did not complete the task and returned to the palace alone.
When the words "a dead end" suddenly popped out of Gonggong Li's mind, at the same time, a big cold sweat broke out on his forehead. It was obviously the warm season of spring, but he had to live the feeling of summer heat. He already knew that he must not be able to send a holy decree to King Xian anymore, but it was a pity that the emperor just liked to let him do this. And even if he has achieved such a high position as the chief eunuch, but in front of the emperor, he is just a eunuch, and there is no second way to go except to obey orders.
"Lord, princess......" Gonggong Li hesitated, but for the sake of this very reluctant head on his neck, he couldn't help but plead so pitifully and said, "The holy purpose is here, it's not good...... "He can only speak with the holy decree, and he can't say "You can't go back, you just want to know how I died, right"!
Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan looked at each other again, and they didn't need to say anything, but each other's eyes were enough for each other to understand what they meant. Xuanyuan Yichen smiled and said, "Gonggong Li, it's hard to come, let's stay here for a few days and then go back." Although it is not as good as the capital, it also has different customs and customs, so it is good to take a look. However, this is not the capital after all, so Gonggong Li must know that there are some places that you should not go around, otherwise you will be lost or captured by the birds and beasts in this wasteland, I am afraid that no one will be able to help you! ”
This is a wasteland, and there are still some birds and beasts. However, as more and more people live here, the environment has become more and more lively, not to mention that people who have lived here for generations have not heard much about birds and animals catching and eating people, let alone the past two years. It's just that Gonggong Li has just arrived, and he doesn't know, so it's always not wrong to let him go a little less and know a little less.
Xuanyuan Yichen said, together with Liu Qingyan, he took the baby who was running around and grabbed it back, and didn't care about the struggle of Gonggong Li behind him to persuade them to go back to the city quickly, so he left all the noise behind him, and they returned to their room.
As soon as I entered the room, the rain that had been brewing outside for a while finally changed from small to heavy, and now it turned into a torrential rain, pouring down. Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan sat at the table, watching the heavy rain outside the door fall, and then drip down the eaves, and the hazy outside was almost unclear whether it was day or night, and they couldn't see whether there was a house or a tree or nothing in the distance.
The most playful and noisy baby also knows that he can't run outside to get drenched in the rain, otherwise his father and mother will be angry and he will be sick, and then the uncle will be unhappy. The room is actually quite large on the inside, but how can it be compared to the larger courtyard outside. He simply stopped running, and came to his parents' side, and sat down at the table like a little adult, and sat between them.
Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan have been husband and wife for many years, full of tacit understanding, the two of them each stretched out a hand, almost at the same time each protected the baby's back, beware of him climbing the stool of the book net will accidentally fall down or something. Seeing that the baby was already sitting firmly, their hand invariably touched the baby's hair, and the black thick hair flowed and slid on the tips of their fingers. These two people are like playing hide and seek, their fingers touch each other from time to time but they are separated, and they play a game of chasing me and hiding from me.
