Drive a RV and go farming in ancient times.

The news of Li Yuan's tragic death was a bit unexpected for Xu Huaiyi. He had originally thought that Li Yuan might have changed his appearance and lived a carefree life outside. Although he was unwilling, based on his current strength, he was not allowed to send people to hunt him down. He could only pin his hopes on the eldest prince and the court, but his expectations were not too high. Who would have thought that he would die just like that?

The outcome was not being caught, but being hacked to death.

This doesn't look like the work of the imperial court. Could it be the work of the eldest prince?

"Master, are you sure it was Li Yuan who died?"

Sun Yu asked back, "Are you worried that he faked his death to get away?"

Xu Huaiyi nodded. "Li Yuan is very cunning. He might have done something like this to escape the pursuit of the imperial court."

Sun Yu said, "It's a pity that he died before he could even fake his death. You don't have to doubt it, that man is indeed Li Yuan. The imperial guards have confirmed his identity, so it can't be fake."

"Has the body been brought back?"

"still on the way."

"Has Changle Marquis' Mansion known about this?"

"The news hasn't been made public yet. If they weren't keeping an eye on Li Yuan, they probably wouldn't know about it." Sun Yu paused, "Do you want to see how Changle Marquis' Mansion reacts to this matter?"

Xu Huaiyi said, "Hmm," If this is a show, there will definitely be flaws, especially with the eldest prince's wife."

Sun Yu raised his eyebrows, "Why don't you believe that Li Yuan is really dead?"

Xu Huaiyi smiled bitterly, "I just think his death was too sudden and too simple. Since he took the trouble to leave, he must have had some way to save his life. How could he be killed so easily?"

Sun Yu said thoughtfully, "That means he met a powerful person..."

Xu Huaiyi then asked, "Who do you think it will be?"

Sun Yu looked at him slowly.

Xu Huaiyi's mouth twitched, "Master, please don't make me laugh. I have the intention, but I don't have the ability. I only have a few guards at home, and I learned quick skills. I can deal with a few petty thieves, but I can't do the job of chasing and killing people. Please praise me!"

Hearing this, Sun Yu raised his lips and smiled.

Xu Huaiyi asked tentatively, "Are you here to vent your anger on your disciple's behalf and solve the problem once and for all?"

Sun Yu glanced at him speechlessly and said faintly, "You have a nice idea, but it's a pity that it's not true."

Xu Huaiyi chuckled twice, "Who could it be?"

"Why didn't you guess it was the eldest prince?"

"Hehe, I always feel that he doesn't have that ability."

Sun Yu nodded, "It's really not the eldest prince's style. It seems that Li Yuan has offended many people."

"Do you think it's revenge?"

"Well, the other party clearly has the ability to kill Li Yuan with one blow, but he didn't do it like a cat playing with a mouse. Obviously, he has a deep hatred for Li Yuan, and this is not enough to appease the hatred."

Xu Huaiyi suddenly realized, and a thought flashed through his mind. If we talk about people who have a deep hatred for Li Yuan, Han Jun must be the first to bear the brunt. Could it be him?

Thinking this, he said, "If there are people who hate Li Yuan to the core, it's the villagers of Hutian Village. For example, Zheng Shan, whose entire family died in vain in that fake plague, lives to seek revenge. How can they be willing to let Li Yuan live? It's just that they don't have the ability to kill him."

Sun Yu was lost in thought and didn't respond.

Xu Huaiyi continued, "It's possible that someone behind Li Yuan was afraid that he would go out and talk nonsense, so they just killed him and put an end to it."

This question was a bit beyond the scope, but Xu Huaiyi said it frankly, so Sun Yu didn't make a fuss and asked calmly, "Do you think that Marquis Changle doesn't support the eldest prince?"

Xu Huaiyi spread his hands, "Obviously not. The eldest prince doesn't seem to have that intention. If the Changle Marquisate still has some ambition, they won't just hang on to him and wait for death. They have to find another backer."

“Who do you think they support?”

Xu Huaiyi shook his head. "I can't guess. I haven't seen Changle Marquis's Mansion have close contact with anyone. I just heard that the legitimate daughter of Li, the sister-in-law of her husband's family, seems to have entered the second prince's backyard."

Sun Yu said, "That's true, but it's not the Second Prince."

"Who do you think it is?"

"Figure it out for yourself."

Xu Huaiyi's face suddenly became bitter, but he knew clearly in his heart that it seemed that Sun Yu had guessed the problem with the King of Chu, but such things could not be said openly.

So, he changed the subject, "Master, I will be moving to a new house at the beginning of next month. Are you and your wife free? The crabapple blossoms will be in full bloom by then. You can take me there for a stroll. Xiaoyu has been talking about me for many times."

Sun Yu agreed and asked, "Did you invite many people that day?"

Xu Huaiyi said, "Not many. How many people do I know? Just a few classmates and friends, and some relatives in the village."

"Can Mr. Jiang and Doctor Jiao go?"

"Ah? Of course I have to go."

Sun Yu reminded, "Then we can't hide the news about Mr. Jiang anymore."

Xu Huaiyi scratched his head. "Maybe Mr. Jiang doesn't care anymore, or he took the initiative to mention that he wanted to go and enjoy the crabapple blossoms."

Sun Yu understood and said with a hint of sourness, "You are really lucky, kid."

Xu Huaiyi said seriously, "I am truly blessed to be able to worship you as my master and receive your teachings and protection."

Sun Yu was amused by him and pointed at him, "Just keep talking nonsense. I envy you for being favored by Mr. Jiang."

Xu Huaiyi said very honestly, "Mr. Jiang is attracted by Xiaoyu's talent in studying. Don't you know my qualifications?"

As a military student, few of them were good at academic subjects. If they really wanted to be good at studying, they would go to the Imperial College.

Then, he said with a look of grievance, "To be honest, Mr. Jiang often despises me for being stupid and unintelligent. I can learn a simple article with difficulty, and my recitation is even worse."

Sun Yu raised an eyebrow, "Mr. Jiang also gave you advice on your article?"

Xu Huaiyi sighed, "I guess so. Occasionally, I would test and teach a few sentences. Every time, the disciples would feel like they were facing a great enemy, and they would be scolded afterwards. It was really miserable."

Sun Yu laughed and scolded, "You really don't know how to appreciate the blessing you have. I don't know how many people ask Mr. Jiang for advice, and they are happy to be scolded. But you are complaining about being wronged."

Xu Huaiyi said helplessly, "But I'm really not good at studying. I can learn the art of war, but everything else gives me a headache."

"You have to learn even if it means you have a headache. Otherwise, what's the difference between you and a reckless man?"

"Yes……"

At night, the couple talked about the incident. Xu Huaiyi didn't need to hide it, so he told them his guess, "Wife, I suspect the murderer is probably Xiaoyu's uncle."

Gu Huanxi asked in surprise, "Why did you think of him? Isn't he missing? Even Xiaoyu doesn't know what his current situation is. How can he still have the energy to kill Li Yuan?"

Xu Huaiyi groaned, "My intuition is that he is the one."

Gu Huanxi frowned and asked, "If it's really him, does that mean he already knew that Xiaoyu came to the capital? Or even knew that Xiaoyu is in our house?"

Xu Huaiyi uttered a depressed "hmm".

Han Jun originally entrusted Gu Xiaoyu to someone else temporarily in order to divert the pursuit. However, later, Han Jun delayed in picking him up and exceeded the agreed time. No one knew whether he was alive or dead. Upon seeing this, the family that took in Gu Xiaoyu changed their attitude. Not only did they covet the money, they also wanted to sell Xiaoyu to escape famine. Xiaoyu had no choice but to save himself, and thus he entered the Gu family, and by some strange combination of circumstances, he returned to the capital again.

The most dangerous place is also the safest place.

But I didn't expect that Han Jun would come here so quickly and kill his enemy with his own hands. Then, would he retaliate against the Changle Marquis Mansion next?

Gu Huanxi was worried, "Will he want to take Xiaoyu away?"

Xu Huaiyi analyzed, "If he is smart and calm enough, he should know that it is best for Xiaoyu to stay in our house. Right now, the eldest prince has been exiled to the imperial mausoleum, and we don't know when he will return to Kyoto. It is obviously not safe for Xiaoyu to return home, and it is not a good idea to follow him around. It is better for him to follow us incognito for the time being. First, he will not attract assassination again. Second, with a famous teacher like Mr. Jiang to teach him, he will be no worse than other grandchildren when he restores his identity in the future."

"I hope so." Putting herself in Gu Huanxi's shoes, it would be hard for her to hand her child over to someone else, even if it was for the child's good.

Two days later, the imperial guards responsible for hunting down Li Yuan returned to Beijing in a low-key manner, carrying Li Yuan's body with them, and went to the palace to ask for forgiveness from the emperor. Instead of catching the fugitive, they had someone torture and kill him. Li Yuan deserved to die anyway, but they didn't find any clues about the murderer, which meant that their mission had failed.

Emperor Jianxing was not angry. He just gave a few mild criticisms and let the matter go.

The body was returned to the Changle Marquis Mansion.

From then on, the news of Li Yuan's murder spread quickly, and the people talked about it with great relish for a while. For example, when Marquis Changle saw his son's horrible body, he was in so much pain that he spit out blood on the spot. The whole marquis's mansion was in a panic, with cries of grief. Another example was that when the eldest prince's wife learned about it, she cried at the top of her lungs and tried to rush out of the yard like crazy, but was ruthlessly stopped by the guards left behind by the eldest prince, and finally fainted.

Because Li Yuan was a fugitive, his funeral was simple and no one came to pay their respects, so he was buried in a hurry.

The Marquis of Changle's Mansion became increasingly closed to visitors.

At the same time, the Pingyuan Marquis' Mansion also kept a low profile. When Meng Chonglou heard about Li Yuan's tragic death, he panicked for a while. He didn't know whether it was someone Li Yuan had offended who was looking for revenge, or if he had been silenced. In short, he felt a sense of grief for the loss of the rabbit, and even the King of Chu became cold to him.

The capital city fell into a strange period of calm.

Xu Huaiyi was recently busy with the final renovations of his new house. He heard about it but didn't take it seriously until someone came to him the day before moving.

He rested in the new house at night. After dinner, he walked around the yard again to check if there was anything he was not satisfied with. He returned to the dormitory, his back subconsciously tensed up.

He looked around calmly and found nothing unusual, but his intuition was right, someone had entered the room.

Not knowing whether he was an enemy or a friend, Xu Huaiyi took heart and walked to the knife rack without any hurry. With the long knife in hand, he felt more at ease and said in a cold voice, "Since you are here, what's the point of hiding your head and showing your tail? Please come out and see me."

After he finished speaking, the room was quiet with only the sound of his own breathing.

Xu Huaiyi couldn't help but frown. Did he guess wrong?

"Who are you, sir? If you keep trying to hide the truth, don't blame me for being rude."

If he had not been unaware of any malicious intent or murderous intention, he would not have used courtesy before force.

After these words were spoken, someone finally walked out from behind the screen. His footsteps were so light that they were almost inaudible, which showed how profound his martial arts skills were.

Xu Huaiyi stared at him, and had some guesses in his mind, but since the other party was wearing a mask, he did not move and asked, "Why did you come here uninvited?"

The other person was also staring at him, his eyes were deep, and when he spoke, his voice was hoarse, as if his throat had been smoked by fireworks, "Are you Xu Huaiyi? I have heard of your name for a long time, nice to meet you!"

The other party was very polite, and added, "I am sorry to bother you by coming here without an invitation."

It was quite presumptuous, as if he was trying to assassinate him. Xu Huaiyi laughed dryly twice, "I don't know your name, sir?"

The other party said calmly, "Han Jun."

Xu Huaiyi wanted to play dumb, but the other party was obviously well prepared. Playing dumb was just a way to delay time, which was meaningless. He was annoyed for a moment and responded, "It turns out to be Mr. Han. I have heard a lot about you. It is a pleasure to meet you."

Han Jun's eyes flashed, "It seems that you know everything."

Xu Huaiyi didn't want to be so passive, and asked innocently, "What do I know?"

Han Jun stared at him without saying anything.

Xu Huaiyi suddenly felt that it was boring again and pointed at the chair, "You are a guest, sit down and talk."

Han Jun walked over, sat down face to face with him, took the teacup he handed over, and drank two sips without hesitation, with a very free and heroic attitude.

Seeing this, Xu Huaiyi was stunned, "Aren't you worried that I'll poison you?"

How can a knight roaming the world not be on guard?

Han Jun said, "I am immune to all poisons."

Xu Huaiyi's eyes widened. "Really? How did you learn this skill? Or did you take some magic medicine?"

He needs immunity to all poisons so much.

Han Jun raised the corner of his lip silently, "Do you really believe it?"

Xu Huaiyi, "..."

Is love playing tricks on him?

Han Jun said insincerely, "Sorry, I was just joking with you to liven up the atmosphere."

Xu Huaiyi chuckled twice. What a lively atmosphere! This guy doesn't look like a lively and humorous person at all.

It was obvious that she was teasing him or testing him.

But after all this commotion, the atmosphere did relax.

Han Jun said seriously, "I drank the tea without hesitation because I trusted you."

Xu Huaiyi's heart moved, and he pretended not to understand, "Is this the first time we meet? We don't know each other, how can we trust each other?"

Han Jun asked back, "Just now, since you noticed that someone had entered the room, why didn't you take the initiative to attack?"

Xu Huaiyi said calmly, "Because I didn't sense any murderous intent. What if a friend was joking with me? What if I accidentally hurt the other person when I attacked?"

Han Jun said, "Oh," "I was being too sentimental. I thought you already knew everything about me, and that's how you could keep calm."

Xu Huaiyi smiled and reminded, "I didn't even know it was you who was hiding just now."

Han Jun nodded. "I thought too much. However, I have learned everything about you in depth beforehand and have secretly observed you for a few days."

The corner of Xu Huaiyi's mouth twitched. No wonder he always had the feeling that someone was watching him these days. He just couldn't find the person. He just thought he was working too hard and had an illusion. It turned out that he was not wronged.

He couldn't help but squeezed out, "It's really my honor."
