Chapter 123: Allies
On the roof opposite the restaurant, Ye Han stood quietly, while Xiao Chen was lying on it with an embarrassed face.
Li Luo smiled indifferently and said, "Why, Prince Xiao never walks through the front door when he sees people?" Climbing the roof is not like what a prince should do. ”
At this moment, Xiao Chen had not yet withdrawn from his previous fear, and waved his hand nonchalantly: "That's not it, everyone knows Xiao Chen's, I'm just a gentleman, which beautiful girl I meet, then I can't go over the wall and lie in the garden to see each other." ”
"Don't say it's climbing the roof, it's drilling a dog hole, and I, Xiao Chen, have also done it. It's Prince Li, who didn't pay for the wine of thirty copper plates, which shocked me a lot. ”
Li Luo smiled: "So, the prince is here to ask me for wine money?" ”
Waving his hand, Xiao Chen pointed at Ye Han in front of him and said, "No, I'm here to fight this time." ”
"My senior brother, I want to fight with your guard, if your guard wins, then this wine money, I will give you as a lottery, but if my senior brother wins, then you have to double the loss of my wine money."
"Thirty copper plates, that's too little, isn't it?" Li Luo smiled faintly.
Xiao Chenzhan, who was relieved, got up and said, "Then how big do you want to be a lottery?" ”
Li Luo smiled mysteriously and said, "Then a city!" ”
Xiao Chen couldn't have imagined that this King of Huainan, who was not even willing to pay thirty copper plates, was the color head of a city as soon as he opened his mouth.
Sitting in the room of the inn, Xiao Chen's hanging heart finally let go.
Li Luo sat on the other side, looking through the window with interest at the two swordsmen holding swords on the roof.
"You say, which of them will win?" Xiao Chen asked a little nervously.
"I don't know!" Li Luo shook his head, with an indifferent look, as if he didn't care about the two of them winning or losing.
Xiao Chen counted with his fingers, and said with a painful face: "I'm just a big place in Yong'an......"
Li Luo turned his head to look at Xiao Chen, and said indifferently: "Lord Xiao, don't worry, Yong'an is your foundation, even if your senior brother loses, I won't want your Yong'an." ”
Xiao Chen's eyes widened and said, "Then I don't have anywhere else." ”
Li Luo smiled playfully and said: "Who can say clearly about the future, maybe when the time comes, Prince Xiao won't care about the affairs of that city." ”
Xiao Chen didn't quite understand what Li Luo meant, so he just said in pieces: "I'm not as rich as you, not only Huainan City, but also the three states in the south, even if you give up one, that's a drop in the bucket." ”
Li Luo suddenly smiled, looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Just as I think you won't only have Yong'an in the future, how do you know that I won't have any other territory except for Huainan and the three states in the south?" ”
This time, Xiao Chen understood it completely.
Li Luo's ambition is far from being satisfied by a prince and a fief.
"You want to overthrow the Xia Kingdom?" Xiao Chen asked uncertainly.
This time, Li Luo didn't speak, just took a glass of wine and drank it gently, but the firmness in his eyes had already explained everything.
Outside the window, the competition between Ye Han and Qiu Shi has unconsciously unfolded.
Without Xiao Chen's expected earth-shattering movements of ghosts and gods, the competition between the two kendo powerhouses was as gentle as weak water, one move and one style, meticulous, and retreating when touched.
But it is the move that seems to be extremely simple, which makes people feel complicated, as if all the swordsman's moves are included in it.
Xiao Chen couldn't understand the subtlety, but suddenly remembered an interesting anecdote: "I heard that the reason why you fought against Emperor Xia was because your father, Li Kang, the general who moved the world and destroyed the Six Kingdoms, died in the hands of Emperor Xia?" ”
This rumor was once spread all over the world, but after all, no tangible evidence was produced, and now that he saw the main owner, Xiao Chen naturally wanted to ask.
"Zhang Yiyun, that is, the Xia Emperor in your mouth, may not have taken action in person!" Li Luo said lightly: "But what is certain is that my father's death is inseparable from him." ”
"But at this point, he Zhang Yiyun deserves to die!" In the last sentence, Li Luo gritted his teeth and was murderous.
Xiao Chen was stunned suddenly, even if he was mentally prepared, but when he really heard the truth of the matter, it still made Xiao Chen have a huge sense of crisis. There have been examples of princes fighting on the border throughout the ages, but if you think about it carefully, which prince finally got a good death?
After all, those emperors who sat on the throne engraved with the golden dragon still didn't like someone to threaten his authority.
"Why do you want to tell me?" Xiao Chen asked puzzledly, he and Li Luo could be said to have met in Pingshui, he really couldn't think of why Li Luo could believe in himself so much.
Li Luo smiled: "Perhaps, it's because you helped me pay for the wine." ”
Picking up the wine glass, Li Luo gestured to Xiao Chen and said, "The two of them want to decide the winner, I'm afraid it will take a little time, how about it, how about a few drinks?" ”
This time, Xiao Chen learned wisely, looked at the bright wine glass in front of him and asked, "Have you paid for this wine?" ”
Li Luohaha laughed: "Don't worry, I really invite you to drink this time." ”
Xiao Chen, who got the reply, picked up the wine glass, specially brewed, don't drink it for nothing.
The two drank it all, Li Luo looked at Xiao Chen and said, "What about you, what are your plans?" ”
"Me?" Xiao Chen pointed to himself and said: "I am just an idle prince, I just want to survive humbly in this treacherous world, so naturally I don't dare to fight back like you." ”
"But you know they won't let you go!" Li Luo suddenly interrupted Xiao Chen's words, and said in a condensed voice: "Ye Zhichu and Bai Qi are now going to add a Patrol West King Linghu Chu, in today's world, where can you escape if you want to?" ”
"When one day, when the flames of war burn to Yong'an, can you still face all this calmly and escape from all this?"
Xiao Chen was suddenly stunned, and his face became solemn.
Yong'an, how he has to defend it!
In fact, he understands the truth, but he is used to running away and not thinking about it...... Or, after thinking about it, I even began to prepare.
Looking at Xiao Chen, who was silent, Li Luo drank another glass of wine and said, "That Zhuang Shu, the secret I told you must not be small, right?" ”
Xiao Chen nodded and said, "If what he said is true, the Wei State may not be the Wei State soon." ”
Li Luo said: "If you need it at that time, you can pass on a letter, and I will send troops to help you." ”
Xiao Chen raised his head and looked at Li Luo, and said with some surprise: "Why?" ”
Li Luo smiled, showed his white teeth and said, "Because we are allies......"
Outside the window, the sword light was like water, and the speed of the two of them dancing the sword became faster and faster, and in the end, the speed was so fast that it was invisible to the naked eye. In the dark night sky, only two bright rays of light could be seen flickering, which were the light of the long sword reflecting the light, like two jade belts, swaying and fluttering in the void.
Inside the window, Xiao Chen was holding a wine glass, looking distracted......
