The moonlight is like ink, and a flat boat is driving on the river.

"The bright moonlight in front of the bed, suspected to be frost on the ground, look up at the bright moon, bow your head and think of your hometown~"

A handsome young man stood at the bow of the boat, holding a sparkling orb in both hands, looking at it without stopping, his face full of comfort.

"What a delicate little poem, did you write it?"

Xiao Liuyan poked her head out of the cabin, looking much haggard than before.

"Yo, Her Royal Highness is awake. ”

Li Ran looked back and put away the Ning Luo Bead with his hand: "This poem was written by a friend in my hometown, his name is Ah Bai. ”

In all fairness, a science student like him, who is extremely biased, can only hum the popular verses of those big guys.

"Abai, it's a good poem...... It's a pity that I can't go back to my hometown. ”

Xiao Liuyan looked in the direction of the northern imperial capital and was full of emotion.

"Don't think too much about the princess, if your life is unsatisfactory, nine times out of ten. Li Ran persuaded.

"Don't comfort me, but I don't have anything that is good in my life. ”

Xiao Liuyan smiled bitterly.

"No, in fact, if you think about it, there will always be, such as...... The princess's natural beauty is the best in the world, and she has only seen it in her next life. ”

Li Ran thought about it and wiped some honey on her mouth, after all, Xiao Liuyan's failure to start a business this time would definitely be devastating to her, and normal people probably couldn't bear it.

"Your little mouth is really unexpectedly sweet. Xiao Liuyan glanced at him deeply: "Li Ran, I think that this time we met, you have changed a lot more than before, and you have become more ...... Clever. ”

"Hey, people always change. ”

Li Ran laughed dryly twice and sat down: "By the way, princess, what are your plans to go to the imperial capital?" If I guessed correctly, at this time, the empress's people are searching for the entire territory of Jinnan City, and the official road leading to the south should be blocked, and your only way out is to take advantage of the fact that the imperial court has not discovered the secret road, and decisively go north, out of Zhongzhou, and into Mobei. ”

"You don't have to worry about this, someone will pick me up when I get to the imperial capital. Xiao Liuyan pondered for a long time, and then added: "That's it, you're right, I'm going to do it...... It is to go to Mobei. ”

"And then?" Li Ran asked tentatively.

"I'll be there looking for allies, building a mighty army, and then, coming back. Xiao Liuyan said with a resolute gaze.

Turtle turtle, this is an iron heart to start a second business.

Li Ran exclaimed in his heart.

"Li Ran, there is one thing I can't figure out. Xiao Liuyan suddenly asked.

"How did you mean that the empress knew about the blue-eyed fox demon?" Li Ran said as he peeled an apple.

"Not bad. ”

Xiao Liuyan frowned and said: "It stands to reason that the fox demons I sent out have all undergone heavy training, and they are almost no different from the original owner, if ordinary Fang Shi does not pass the magic weapon, he can't see it at all, how did Pei Zhongshu find out?"

"This is for Her Royal Highness the princess herself. Li Ran said with a smile.

"Ask me?" Xiao Liuyan was stunned.

"Aren't you going to answer my question?" Li Ran took a bite of the apple casually:

"You, why don't you arrest Ma Wenjie?"

Xiao Liuyan was stunned when he heard this, but did not speak.

Seeing that the other party did not respond, Li Ran said to himself: "When the first emperor died, Emperor Murong Yu united with the governor of the five armies to launch a coup d'état in the imperial city of Shenwumen on the occasion of the triumphant return from the expedition to the Ice Country, and the second princess Xiao Xuanyue successfully ascended the throne, and it didn't take long for her to set a rule. ”

Xiao Liuyan still didn't speak.

Li Ran leisurely ate the apple and continued: "In 845 years of the Great Xuan, Empress Xuanyue's new policy confiscated the military power of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and the General Military Office of various places, and only retained the right to command the army, and the right to transfer troops was under the control of the Ministry of War. ”

"So, if you want to use the soldiers and horses of the four counties of the Imperial Court, you can't get around one person at all. ”

Speaking of this, Li Ran's eyes gradually deepened: "Ma Wenjie's father, the left waiter of the military department, Ma Feng." ”

"You...... You mean Master Ma ...... him?"

Xiao Liuyan's expression was shocked: "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! Ma Feng is a flower that my mother emperor personally ordered, my mother emperor has the grace of knowing him, he will definitely not betray me!"

"Princess, I didn't say anything. ”

Li Ran shook his head and threw the apple core into the river.

"Are you ......" Xiao Liuyan looked at the man in front of him speechlessly, only to feel more and more strange, is this still the innocent and stupid little white-faced lover?

Li Ran smiled helplessly and said: "This Uncle Ma and my father are world friends, I know him too well, okay, let's not talk about this first, dare to ask the princess, how are the six former ministers of the reign of the Qing Aya Empress now?"

Hearing this, Xiao Liuyan bit her lower lip and was silent.

Li Ran said: "They were either exiled to the border or degraded to the prefecture and county, and idle officials like my father, who had been careful all his life and had no real power, stayed alive." ”

"There is only one exception. ”

Li Ran continued: "That's Ma Feng, before the coup d'état, he was just a small Hanlin cultivator, after the coup, he became the second-in-command of the military department, what do you think happened in the middle? Wow, this kind of thing is really scary." ”

"In other words, do you think about it, a person like the empress today, would she let an unreliable person stay in the military department?"

After Li Ran finished speaking, he added: "Of course, my Uncle Ma is about this...... I'm purely conjecturing, there is no evidence, just listen to it. ”

"I was wrong, completely wrong......"

Xiao Liuyan said sadly: "That's it, the shame of this day will be repaid tenfold in the coming day!"

"Come on. Li Ran glanced at her with complicated eyes.

"Li Ran, can you help me?"

Xiao Liuyan pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "I used to be obsessed with your appearance, I really didn't expect you to have such knowledge, you and I are concerned...... It's Murong Yu and Xiao Xuanyue back then!"

"Don't, I'm a salted fish, I'm just playing tricks, Your Royal Highness Princess, don't embarrass me. Li Ran hurriedly said.

"Okay, I know what you're thinking, you must think that someone like me doesn't deserve to do great things, right?"

Xiao Liuyan's eyebrows were upside down.

"Heaven and earth conscience, I am very optimistic about you, princess!" Li Ran hurriedly explained.

"That's it, just wait for me in the imperial capital, I will definitely come back, I will prove it to you, prove it to the people of the world. Xiao Liuyan looked at him: "If you want to marry a wife and a concubine, you can do whatever you want, anyway, when I kill back to the imperial capital, all women will have to get away, and you only belong to me." ”

I'll go, why does this sound so shocking, goosebumps are up......

The domineering president and the silly white sweet painting style?

"Princess, don't think so much. ”

Li Ran smiled bitterly and stood up: "The boatman outside is your person, right?"

"Yes, she is a female officer who has served me for many years. ”

"Absolute loyalty?"

"Of course!"

"Hmm...... It's hot, but it's a nice night tonight. Li Ran pulled his neckline, it was really a little hot.

"yes, it's beautiful. Xiao Liuyan replied, her pink cheeks turned red, and she was incredibly beautiful in the moonlight.

In the cabin, Li Ran's eyes were extremely clear, and the whole person entered a state of transcendence.

For some reason, at this moment, he suddenly thought of someone.

A woman you've never met.

Xiao Wan'er.

"This ...... Shouldn't it be nothing?"

"Yes, I'm still a beautiful man with a clean and decent style. 」

", what was I thinking!"

When Li Ran's thoughts were flying, Xiao Liuyan suddenly said faintly:

"Li Ran, before parting, I want to tell you a secret. ”

"Well, let's talk about it. ”

"I have contacted your father before, he is a very kind and upright person, and after knowing that I am still alive, he wrote several times to persuade me to let go of the past and stay away from the imperial capital. ”

"My dad, haha, that's quite in line with his personality. Li Ran smiled, and suddenly thought of something: "The book of "Ode to the Moon" in his room was given to him by you?!"

"Yes, there is a strategic plan for my restoration plan hidden on it, but I thought he had lost it, but I didn't expect him to keep it. ”

Xiao Liuyan said in surprise.

"Oh my day, something happened!"

I don't know what I thought, Li Ran changed his face violently, and rushed out of the cabin: "Miss Boatman, how far are we from the Imperial Capital Triumph Port?"

"Half an hour, it's ahead!"

"It's too late!"

"Light Body!"

Li Ran gritted his teeth, raised his hands flat, the true qi in his body ran at high speed to the extreme, the whole person's clothes were flying, and his feet were gradually vacated!

When Xiao Liuyan rushed out of the cabin, he only saw a long jade back in the moonlight, looking north and speeding away, like a Nine Heavens Immortal!

"Li Ran, who the hell are you......."
