Chapter 52 Old Enmity

The winter snow is flying, like clear ice crystals in the sky, falling to the world, and falling on the eaves in fine pieces.

Li Xuanjing was reading in the study.Lazily covered with a thin blanket, leaning on the wide dragon chair, reading a book with his chin propped on one hand in boredom.

He has always been undisciplined, full of rebellious youth, and he is a child who gives adults a headache when they see him.

There are not many political affairs to be dealt with every day, and there are countless studies-he started late, but fortunately he is talented and can learn everything quickly.It's just that even if he is extremely intelligent, he is still too young. Since the founding of the Xia Dynasty, there has not been an emperor who ascended the throne before the age of forty, let alone when he ascended the throne at the age of seven, he has a lot to learn.

He looks and is actually a very rebellious and perverse child, but for some reason, he has been quiet during this period of time, practicing literature and martial arts every day, and the quietness is a bit too much.

Late at night, Ying Xiehan walked in wearing a snowstorm.

There were two points of anger on his usually calm face.

The great eunuch Zhou Changde who was serving outside the door saw it, his heart skipped a beat, he hurriedly saluted, and said in a low voice: "My lord, I greet you, you can go in after a rest, Your Majesty is in a bad mood today..."

Ying Xiehan asked: "When did Your Majesty feel better?"

This is a bit presumptuous to say, and I don't know what happened to make this big man who has always been moody and angry so angry.Zhou Changde wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "Your Majesty should be careful. Your Majesty is busy with state affairs every day, and you are overworked. Your body and bones are tired. We are working below, of course we should be more considerate..."

Ying Xiehan chuckled, he also knew Zhou Changde's good intentions, and was afraid that he would hurt Prince if he went in.But he really couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, took a few hasty deep breaths, waved his hands and said: "I know. You send someone to bring two bowls of hot tea, go."

Zhou Changde didn't dare to say any more, he quickly answered yes, turned around and ordered people to do things.

Li Xuanjing listened to the movement at the door, and probably knew that it was Ying Xiehan who came over.

The expression on his face remained unchanged, and he casually turned a page of the book.

Ying Xiehan came in and saw Li Xuanjing's appearance, slightly frowned and said in a deep voice: "I have seen Your Majesty."

Li Xuanjing didn't raise his eyes, and let out a soft sound from his throat.

"Does Your Majesty really want to continue like this?"

Hearing the other party's seemingly unbearable question, Li Xuanjing was finally willing to look away from the page, and met Ying Xiehan's eyes: "I don't understand what you mean."

Ying Xiehan said: "Your Majesty is extremely talented, and he is a well-deserved emperor. Even if he is younger, in time, the real dragon will surely be limitless in the sky. Why do you have to be blinded by hatred and do something that will ruin your future? No matter whatIf you catch yourself, you will die with Fu Chenhuan?"

Li Xuanjing's slender fingers slowly pinched the pages of the book, and chuckled lightly: "It's all right, why are you saying this all of a sudden?"

Before Ying Xiehan could answer, his brows darkened and his body was full of thorns: "What do you think you are? Is it my father and brother or ancestor, or is it a god descending from the earth, who can tell me how to do things."

"Everyone thinks differently. If you are not a ruler, you should ask less of others."

Li Xuanjing said: "You don't think hatred is important, but I just think that revenge is the most important thing in life. For this reason, I don't need to cherish country, life, and reputation." He smiled playfully, showing a malicious look of pity"Ying Xiehan, you don't understand me. The reason why you say this is probably because you are too boring to live. You don't have anyone you care about in this world. Li Heng has the kindness to know you, but it's justThat's all; do you want to get rid of Fu Chenhuan for revenge? No, you are not. You and Fu Chenhuan are on the opposite side, but because of some helpless things, you can't stand with him, and you are forced by fate to act with him.Rival. You want to help me well, but is this really the only thing you want to do? Not necessarily, you also feel very baffled, but you don't know what you should do."

He sneered, "No matter how absurd I am, at least I know what I want. And what about you? You've lived so far, and you don't even know what you want."

Ying Xiehan's unexpected words suddenly aroused a fire in the young man's heart that could easily be provoked.He has a cruel and poisonous tongue, and he speaks without mercy and without mercy.

Li Xuanjing's words pierced Ying Xiehan's body like a knife, making him silent for a while.

He had nothing to say, and even felt that what the other party said made sense.

But in the end, he still opened his mouth in a low voice, his tone was much weaker than when he first came in, and he was a little tired: "Wei Chen is indeed a person with no punctuation, nothing can be pure, it's just a little effort."

"It's just that no matter how resentful and injustice you feel in your heart, Your Majesty, you can't take advantage of your own foundation. How can you get involved with the Beimo people to plot a conspiracy?"

He spoke slowly, and took out a letter from his cuff, "Weichen didn't intend to intercept your letter, but you are young and you have been too abnormal these days. Weichen is worried that you will go astray, so I have to help you."Keep an eye on it."

Li Xuanjing held his breath very heavily, but did not get angry, and his tone was neither salty nor dull: "Do you know that your behavior is a capital offense?"

"My minister knows."

Li Xuanjing stretched out his hand.

Ying Xiehan slowly handed him the letter in his hand.

The letter has been opened, Li Xuanjing directly took out the letter paper from the envelope and unfolded it, reading the ten lines at a glance: "Since you have read it, why don't you tell me what you think."

Ying Xiehan didn't expect him to be so calm, without a trace of remorse, and could even have a peaceful discussion with him.

He was choked for a long time: "Your Majesty, Liang Zhao was the one who rebelled against the Liang family in Beimo. Back then, the entire Liang family had beheaded him. If he hadn't read this letter, I would never have believed that he was still alive. He is not dead, but he is still alive."Keeping a low profile for twenty years, he even has the ability to stir up trouble in Qing Chuan... Who knows what he really wants to do? Is it just for Fu Chenhuan's life? Your Majesty, for such a dangerous person, you are tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger."

Li Xuanjing didn't take it seriously, and smiled half-smile: "Beimo traitor, can't be Xia Dynasty's friend?"

"Besides, he hates Fu Shenghuan and wants him to die."

Ying Xiehan gritted his teeth, "Even if Fu Chenhuan died, he couldn't die outside. He is the regent, and the news of his death cannot be taken lightly..."

"But I don't care." Li Xuanjing spread his hands, looking innocent, "This Mr. Liang knew that I, a young emperor, had no ambitions and was suppressed by the regent, so he kindly offered me a pillow. Why can't I have a pillow?pillow?"

Ying Xiehan was speechless, "Your Majesty—"

He paused, "It turns out that you believed Fu Chenhuan's words when you said before that Fu Chenhuan would never return. But Weichen also mentioned to you that Weichen has successfully placed a pawn beside Fu Chenhuan, so there is no need to let Fu ChenhuanTo go to such a far place, we just need to plan well, and we can get things done quietly in Capital City!"

"Oh," Li Xuanjing nodded, "You are talking about the woman Liang Zhao asked about in the letter."

He raised his eyebrows, "He is cautious, it seems that the two of them have already met and talked in private, otherwise they would not have come to test whether this woman is trustworthy."

Ying Xiehan was speechless and looked gloomy.

Li Xuanjing blinked, and suddenly said with a smile: "Master Ying, what are you nervous about?"

Did he read it right?Ying Xiehan, such a cold-hearted person, seemed really at a loss.

Ying Xiehan's voice was tense: "How will Your Majesty answer him?"

"To tell you the truth, since it is the person you arranged, it is naturally credible."

Li Xuanjing raised his eyebrows: "Is there something wrong?"

Ying Xiehan closed his eyes, and when he spoke again, his voice was a little disappointed: "Your Majesty still came to ask me what's wrong... If I say that this matter is not right at all, Your Majesty, as the ninety-five Supreme Being, has lowered his voice."Gesture voluntarily gets mixed up with the Beimo Rebellious Party. And she..."

The last few words were so low that it was almost inaudible, like a heavy sigh, Li Xuanjing didn't notice it.

He just turned cold: "I said, I don't care about these things. Mr. Ying has been with me for six years, and he should know in his heart that maybe I will do even more absurd and crazy things in the future. If you can't stand it, Mr.You can resign, and I will allow it."

"But now that you have committed the crime below, I am kind enough not to take your life. Go to the Ministry of War to receive a hundred sticks of punishment, and go down."

This punishment is indeed not serious, Ying Xiehan didn't say anything, it seemed that all hope was lost.

He bowed his head in a slumped salute, "Yes."

...

In the next few days, Ling Zhao did not act rashly. He searched medical books every day, or went to the medicine garden to get his herbs. He looked like a doctor who was obsessed with medical skills and seriously studied difficult and miscellaneous diseases.

Li Nuo kept his guard against him. She was not afraid of anything else, but she was afraid that Ling Zhao would do the same thing to the face and the other, and if he secretly poisoned him, she would be hard to guard against.

But fortunately, he is honest, and Fu Chenhuan's alertness is even higher than hers, so Ling Zhao has almost no chance to act rashly.

This day, Fu Chenhuan received a letter from a flying pigeon, and Li Nuo recognized the pigeon's appearance, with a little red on its tail feathers, and the way its legs were tied with tubes was also special, it was a carrier pigeon used by the Longzhou Army.

Li Nuo looked at Fu Chenhuan standing at the door, frowned and opened the letter: Huo Yunlang's letter at this time probably means that the banditry in the southwest has come to an end. With his ability, he should handle it very well. This request is probably for Fu Chenhuan's next step.arrange.

Ling Zhao used the so-called poisoning to delay time, obviously he would not give up if nothing happened, and they would definitely not be able to leave in a while.I don't know if Brother Chenhuan will let Huo Yunlang and the others go back to Capital City, or meet here...

If it's the former, then there's plenty of time, but if it's the latter, you have to hurry up.

What Ling Zhao said the other day was true - the place is desolate and remote, with few people in the know, it is indeed a good time to act at the right time and place.

"Sister," was thinking, when the system came online and called her, "I have something to discuss with you, please give me some time."

Fu Chenhuan was still at the door, Li Nuo turned his body slightly, turned his face out of the window, "Just say it."

"Oh, it's a long story, you'd better give it more time."

Li Nuo licked his lips, the two of them usually have meetings at night, it is inconvenient during the day, and they seldom discuss anything.

Now that the system came online so suddenly, the meaning behind the words made her send Fu Chenhuan away.

After all, he is the only true ally who plans big things together. Without something extremely important, it is impossible for the system to run out at this time.

Li Nuo had some guesses in her heart, "Okay, wait a moment," she rolled her eyes, "I'll think about how to get brother Chenhuan out."

The system taught her: "You don't want him to go out. You just say that you are not feeling well and you want to lie down. When the time comes, turn your body around and face the wall to pretend to be asleep. The two of us can talk about whatever we want. HeSurely it won’t bother you, so why not?”

"That won't work."

"Why?"

Li Nuo didn't bother to explain to it, and it couldn't empathize with it. Although pretending to be sick is very useful, in Fu Chenhuan's eyes, it will hurt him. I'm really worried.

"Don't worry about it, I'll do it myself."

Footsteps sounded behind her, Fu Chenhuan walked towards her, Li Nuo turned off the system first.Turning around, Fu Chenhuan was walking in front of him.

She took his hand naturally, "Brother Chenhuan, is it General Huo's letter? Have the bandits in the Southwest been resolved?"

"Um."

"Then where do they go next?"

Fu Chenhuan pondered, "I have ordered them to come."

Huh...why?

Li Nuo thought for a while, but he didn't know why: "But General Huo is leading the elite of the Longzhou Army. We are located on the border between the two countries. If we do this, will it arouse others' suspicion?"

Fu Chenhuan bent his lips, and lightly touched Li Nuo's head: "Nono, why did you start thinking about this?"

He smiled lowly, "You don't have to worry, just feel at ease. I know everything, and I will handle it well."

More words, he didn't want to say to the girl in front of him - he just wanted to make her carefree and happy every day, and he didn't want to hear a word about those things hidden under the undercurrent.

In addition to taking Nono to seek medical treatment, he personally explored the reality of Beimo, which was the second reason why he had to come to Beimo.

Among the big countries in the world, the Xia Dynasty has broken away from the national conditions inside the emptiness of the prosperous appearance, gradually stabilized its foundation, and has a strength comparable to that of the founding of the country; among all the neighboring border countries, Beimo is the only one that can fight against the Xia Dynasty on an equal footing.It was only in the past two years that the country that had been a large territorial power for decades gradually declined, and had no choice but to bow its head.

In addition, other countries have neither the ability nor the courage to confront.

Although based on the facts and personal control, Fu Chenhuan doesn't really believe that Bei Mo has such strength, but he can only feel relieved if he personally checks it - the force that caused him to be separated from Nono for six years is always a sharp knife hanging in his heart.The black hand is mysterious, powerful, and deeply hidden.It can never be a single person, it must be a large and orderly organization.

In today's world, there is such a mysterious, unpredictable and terrifying force. They are in the dark, but he is in the light.If it is not eradicated, he may not feel at ease day and night.

If he didn't say anything, Li Nuo naturally didn't know that Fu Chenhuan could think so deeply.At this moment, she nodded her head, skipped this section, and said coquettishly: "Brother Chen Huan, I..."

"Um?"

Li Nuo smiled lightly and hummed something.

Fu Chenhuan raised the corners of his lips all of a sudden: "What?"

Li Nuo repeated in a low voice: "I want to eat the steamed sugar cake you made."

Fu Chenhuan's smile deepened: "Okay."

Nono rarely asks him explicitly, but he is willing to listen.He wished she would tell him everything she wanted, even if it was the moon, he could pick it off for her.

Fu Chenhuan couldn't help pinching her little face, it was so soft, but she didn't know that she herself was like a sweet cake.

He smiled and said, "Wait for me, it will be fine soon."

She held his big hand and did not let go, her eyes filled with happiness like stars, "Thank you, Brother Chenhuan."

Fu Chenhuan's heart melted when she said, "Good boy."

With a mellow voice, he leaned over and kissed the corner of her eyes.

Li Nuo nodded with a smile, and watched Fu Chenhuan go out.

She ate a lot of food that Fu Chenhuan made for her. He pampered her too much and indulged in everything. There is probably nothing in this world that he doesn't know.

Seeing the joyous look on his back, she couldn't help but soften her heart, and touched her burning cheek.

What a fool, he was so happy to be ordered to work.

She couldn't hold back her smile, and the more she thought about it, the more she couldn't help it, revealing a row of white and lovely teeth.

"Ahem..."

Suddenly, the system cleared his throat like a human being, "I finally understand why you don't care about me when you have nothing to do. You are doing it for my own good. Thank you."

Li Nuo blinked, put down his hands, and straightened his expression: "Xiao Shi, you are really becoming more and more human."

"Don't dare to be that," the system said coolly, "I can't get involved with anyone."

Li Nuo laughed dryly: "Don't be so stingy, hurry up, we don't have much time, let's get down to business, you are in such a hurry to find me, do you have something to do with Ling Zhao?"

When it comes to business, the system is no longer eccentric: "Well. After staying with him for so many days, I finally detected some abnormalities. I have sorted them out and I can discuss them."

Before the discussion, it first asked a question: "Sister, in your heart, do you think there is anything wrong with Ling Zhao?"

"He has a bit of mental disorder," Li Nuo blurted out subconsciously, then paused and said, "I'm sure I don't know as much as you, but in the past two days I've discovered something, and I've been thinking about it: I don't think he's because of the past.His voice and appearance were 'accidentally' damaged by the drug test. I think... maybe his real purpose is to cover up his recognizable appearance. If this is the case, then he is worried that Brother Chenhuan may recognize him.Get him out."

The system hummed: "It's indeed suspicious. And from this point of view, Fu Chenhuan became the orphan of the Fu family when he was seven years old, so if he has any entanglements with Ling Zhao, it can only be before the age of seven... a seven-year-old child——Ling Zhao, to be so afraid of him."

Li Nuo knew how good he was. She knew very well that he would not be bad when she was a child.

"Brother Chenhuan knows that his real name is Xueche, and he even remembers some other things. This shows that he has a good memory since he was a child. If there is a deep entanglement, it is not surprising that he remembers Ling Zhao's voice and appearance."

Li Nuo's expression was a little sad, but after all, he was too young, no matter how precocious and quick-witted he was, it was impossible to resist the power of an overgrown man.He became Xia Chao's fall box, and she couldn't believe that there was no handwriting of Ling Zhao.

Li Nuo couldn't help it: "What did you find out? Let me hear."

System: "I dug deeper and found out that because Prince is the absolute male lead in the original book, Fu Chenhuan's life experience only states that he is not an orphan of the Fu family but a fallen slave. The reversal is enough, and there is no more depth.Keep writing—but the book is two-dimensional after all, and the world is three-dimensional, and many things are more harmonious and logical.”

"After checking, I found out that when Xue Xi was sent to the Xia Dynasty as a proton, Ling Zhao had followed him in his team. It was just a disguised disguise, and it was a private act."

In the blink of an eye, Ling Zhao's words "I thought he was tortured to death" faintly echoed in his ears, and Li Nuo instantly thought of many things:

"His hatred for Chenhuan's brother is not usually deep. But he said he always thought he was dead, so he didn't do anything for so many years. Is it..."

After Xue Xi entered Beijing, the entourage was reduced to less than ten, and she had seen them all.In other words, Ling Zhao has not entered Beijing, so the only chance for him to find out that Fu Chenhuan is alive...

Li Nuo said, "Did Ling Zhao, who was hiding in the crowd, recognize his face the moment Brother Chenhuan opened the car curtain outside Spirit Mountain Temple? That's when he knew he was still alive?"

The system said: "Yes. Look at Ling Zhao's life again."

For convenience, it brought up the panel to show her.

"Ling Zhao lived in seclusion and lived here for twenty years. But before the seclusion, his past was blank and no one knew about it."

"Here is another thread," it said, "Twenty years ago in Beimo, there was a treason case. The Liang family, the protector of the country, committed treason and was ransacked all over the house-if I am not a system, I can quickly browse countless materials, no one will find such a long-standing dusty, just a few words of clues. Liang Zhao, the youngest son of the Liang family, was not yet a weak crown, and the only record about him is that he does not like martial arts and art of war, and is especially obsessed with medical skills."

"Of course, it would be far-fetched to say that he is the current Ling Zhao based on this alone, but there is one more thing - this Liang Zhao's childhood sweetheart fiancee was forcibly included by the emperor of Beimo less than half a month before her marriage.The palace is for the concubine."

Li Nuo frowned slightly.

Although Brother Chenhuan mentioned very little, he said that his slave mark was branded by his biological mother.If so, it made sense that his biological mother rejected him.

Knowing that Li Nuo's reaction was not slow, the system went on to say: "Generally, people who become box slaves are basically hopeless. No one can live past twenty years. Even Fu Chenhuan was sent to a lower status as a slave."In the Xia Dynasty, such a small child would definitely not be able to survive, and would definitely be trampled to death."

"Besides, there has been no movement for so many years. It happened that there was a disturbance in Qing Chuan a few months ago-although we cannot be sure that the disturbance has something to do with Ling Zhao, but there are some doubts related to him. If there is no one from himPushing hands, impossible."

Li Nuo's thoughts changed quickly: "No wonder I feel that Ling Zhao's preparations are a little weak, and his strength is a little weak. Their real vicious trap should be set on the bandits in the southwestern border of Qing Chuan, but Brother Chenhuan didn't go, that's all.ruined his plan."

"The strategy over there can't be used, he can only find another way here."

"That's right."

After things made sense, Li Nuo's first thing that came to him was pity: it turned out that brother Chenhuan was indeed the prince of Beimo.When she heard him say that his name was Xue Che before, she thought of his similar appearance to Xue Xi, and she had this kind of guess in her heart, and now that the guess was confirmed, she was not surprised.

I just feel sorry for him.

God really took care of him too much, he spent half his life in the army, and the iron cavalry almost flattened the northern desert, but in the end, it was his own home country.

Not counting... Let alone Beimo people, even his biological mother, how could she ever treat him kindly?

Forget it, she doesn't care whether he is the son of General Xia Dynasty, the prince of Beimo, or a slave. In her eyes, he is just an ordinary person who has suffered many, many grievances.In the future, only she will be his family, and she will treat him better than before.

Li Nuo suppressed her pity in her heart, pursed her lips lightly, and tried her best to focus on the matter itself. It seems that things are going smoothly, but there are still some details that she can't figure out for the time being, but now is not the time to pursue thoseIf you want to know, when you have a chance to see Xue Xi in the future, just ask him some questions.

Li Nuo clasped his hands, stroked it again in his heart, and said:

"Ling Zhao is too dangerous. If we don't get rid of him, I'm afraid that Brother Chenhuan and I will never have peace. It's just that I'm riding a tiger, so I can't strike first. If Brother Chenhuan succeeds in feigning death..."

She said, "As long as the system detects that the target person is dead, we have successfully exploited the loopholes in the mechanism. When the mission channel is closed, he is no longer my target and becomes an ordinary person. I can confess many things to him.At that time, with Brother Chenhuan's ability, he must be much safer in dealing with Ling Zhao than me."

"So we'd better find an opportunity to arrange suspended animation first, and then get rid of Ling Zhao. Xiao Shi, do you have any new discoveries about the ideas I told you a few days ago?"

"Hahaha who am I, brilliant system."

After the system boasted, Lian's voice was louder: "This is also the second thing I want to say."

"Sister, I've already helped you detect the few simple plans you told me before, and now—the time is right, geographical and social conditions are favourable, and there is an excellent chance of suspended animation, 'killing' without dying,Are you interested in listening to it?"

The author has something to say:
