Chapter 14: Scars of the Past

Hearing the words of Pingchat, Li Kai felt some inexplicable warmth in his heart, the warmth was because he had paid and others had seen it, and there was a slight sting, the stinging pain was because he had paid for so long but could not get good results, thinking about it, he felt inexplicable loss and uneasiness in his heart.

"I can't put down the song?" Li happily coughed, thinking to himself, he doesn't seem to be so obvious in his usual life, right? Even if he sticks to Li Ge again, it's his own brother, that's normal, right? Thinking of this, she straightened up, stood on tiptoe, put her other hand on his shoulder, pursed her little mouth, and tilted her head to look at him.

"Gege set up Su Yushi as the imperial concubine, Su Yushi is strong in martial arts, and Gege is now losing his martial arts, the whole person is stupid, of course I can't rest assured as a sister!"

The reddened cheeks gradually dissipated, the white teeth opened between the pink lips, and the whole little face looked very small and fresh.

He stared at her calmly with his eyes, and when she was done, he spread out her palm, and a deep scar was clearly visible between the veins, and the wrinkled and abrupt wound looked a little old.

"What are you doing! Don't think that if you're my guard, I won't dare to lose my temper with you, let me go! Li Kai angrily struggled with her gripping hand, he glanced at her, ignored her command, and quickly rolled up the sleeve on her right hand with one hand, only to see that an old ten-centimeter-long scar also fell on his elbow.

"You've had enough talk!" Li Kai's emotions finally broke through the bottleneck, she yelled, her brows were furrowed, her eyes were full of anger, and she changed her usual well-behaved and cute image.

He let go of her hand, leaned against the willow tree, faced the river, and sighed softly.

"How long are you going to load? If you like it but don't say it, you will only get yourself hurt more. ”

Li Kai was stunned, his eyes widened in surprise, and then he lowered his head gloomily, gently lifted his sleeves, and stroked the scar on his palm with one hand.

"So you know......" She looked up at the sky, feeling like something had stabbed her heart again.

"I ...... I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation, I was worried about you when I saw the situation, so I hid outside the prison door. ”

Li Kai loosened his eyebrows, pursed his mouth, turned his head and smiled at him, and then froze himself.

"Princess...... Is everything you say true? He endured it for a few years, and finally couldn't help but ask.

She didn't laugh, what is true, what is false, who wants to mention the painful things in the past.

"What you heard that day is right, I am Ouyang Tian, the second daughter of Ouyang Mansion who was tragically destroyed by the first emperor."

In the prison, Li Ge told Li Kai that he was not a murderer, and he certainly knew that the delicate Li Kai was not a murderer.

Ping Chat happened to hear about Li Kai's life experience, and he was so surprised that he was almost not frightened at that time. Although I heard it with my own ears today, I suddenly couldn't believe it in my heart, and I didn't want to believe it.

"After Your Majesty ascended the throne, the palace was sealed, and I never dared to investigate deeply, so it turned out that this was the case, so the first emperor was killed by the assassin on the night of his death, is it really related to him...... "He finally asked.

Li Kai was surprised, but he didn't expect him to suspect that it was Gege who assassinated the first emperor.

"The death of the first emperor was too sudden, you don't have to think about it, you know that the most beneficiary of this incident is His Majesty Li Ge, at that time, all the spearheads of the Manchu Dynasty were pointed at His Majesty Li Ge, and you, in order to help him exonerate, actually said that you are not used to seeing the first emperor mediocre and incompetent, and smoothly entered the palace as your own brother's favored identity, and took advantage of the time to go to the imperial history room to send cough medicine to the first emperor to assassinate the first emperor, and His Majesty Li Ge actually believed it, and in front of the civil and military officials, a sword in the main hall mercilessly stabbed your right hand, and finally imprisoned you in the prison, It's just that later he found another "orphan in Ouyang Mansion who fled that night." "I released you for a reason, and I don't understand why he did it."

Ping Chat took her hand distressedly and fell into deep thought.

"Don't doubt Ge Ge, we grew up, I know his character well, the assassin really has someone else, it is really helpless to say that it was an orphan, after all, I was about to be executed at that time, wasn't it?"

He lifted his eyes and let his thoughts fall on her face.

"Princess...... If it weren't for His Majesty Li Ge's doing...... I'm beginning to wonder if it's the other remnants of your family who are behind it. He grinned, laughed, and suddenly became so unserious when he talked about business, which made Li Kai secretly a little unhappy.

She glanced at him helplessly. "You might as well say I did it?"

Secretly laughed in his heart, is it a fool to chat? The first emperor's assassination caused a lot of trouble, and most of the palace had only heard that there was only one orphan in Ouyang Mansion in Ouyang Mansion, where did he come from?

"Don't dare, don't dare, the princess is so gentle, she can't hold her weapon, you assassinate? Bet on my dozens of heads and don't believe it. ”

“......“

Li Kai's heart is clearly like a mirror, as soon as the first emperor dies, Gege will definitely ascend the throne, and the day of revenge is just around the corner, but once Gege dies, everything is a floating cloud, so he must not die! Even if you try your best, you have to protect him.

However, what made him wonder was, who was the assassin behind the scenes? Friend or foe?

She pursed her lips and turned her head to him.

"That...... Can you keep my background a secret? ”

Ping Liao's face suddenly sank, and his expression looked a little lost. "Although I don't get along with the princess every day, but after a few years of life as a master and servant, in the eyes of the princess, am I the kind of person who will betray the master in order to be promoted and knighted?"

She shook her head vigorously, realizing that she had said the wrong thing, and quickly showed an embarrassed apology on the corner of her mouth in horror.

She stretched against the willow tree and exhaled.

"Alright! I said the wrong thing, don't be angry! I'm emotionally organized, let's go back to the palace! Otherwise, Ge Ge should be in a hurry. “

I saw him silent, quietly leaning under the willow tree.

"Hello? My Pingchat guard, haven't finished enjoying the scenery yet? Still waiting for the night to feed the mosquitoes? ”

Li Kai walked past Ping Chat with a grin. "Let's go! Haha~ Wood flat chat! Go back to the palace! Just when Li Kai was striding and wanted to leave, she was suddenly hugged by Ping Chat, and the whole person was like a soft little white rabbit, falling into his arms.

"......" Li Kai was a little wrong, she pushed him, but Pingchat has always been a man who has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and his strength is naturally great, he hugged her and was silent.

The silent atmosphere made her start to be distracted, what was wrong with chatting about this?

I was about to open my mouth to ask him, only to see that he suddenly let go of himself.

"What happened to you?" She asked.

"If the princess asks again, will it be dark?" He craned his neck and smiled at her.

“......”

"Oh! Strange flat chat. Let's go back! “
