[Rebirth] General waiting for my return

"Li Yu was only 12 years old," Zhao Qingming said.

Zhao Shuo took a look at Zhao Qingming and said, "You have been with Li Yu for so many years, but you don't know him at all."

Zhao Qingming didn't make a sound when he heard the words, he had to admit it.

It's true that I have been with Li Yu all these years. They really have nothing to do with each other, and I really don't know anything about each other.

He couldn't help but think of a conversation he had with Li Yu seven years ago before entering the East Palace.

"Did you know the news of Qin Shuai's death?" Li Yu, the 12-year-old prince, spoke without the slightest childishness that a teenager should have.

"Of course I know." Zhao Qingming said neither humble nor overbearing.

"Tan Shuai is dead, but the Red Maple Camp is still there. Father said that boy Tan Muqiu is not handsome. Unfortunately, according to the rules, that kid will take over the Red Maple Camp. Guess what Father will do?" Li Yu smiled slightly. asked.

Zhao Qingming's eyes froze, and he said, "Your Majesty's Sacred Heart, I dare not speculate."

"The Qin family and the Zhao family have always been on good terms, but Tan Muqiu is still underage. I think Master Zhao will take him in. But what about the Red Maple Camp? They can't stay in Zhongdu, right?" Li Yu said again.

"His Royal Highness, you can speak directly if you have something to say," Zhao Qingming said.

"The Red Maple Camp is a hot potato. If the Zhao family gets involved, it will definitely attract the jealousy of the Emperor Father. For the current plan, only by letting the Red Maple Camp have a place where the Emperor Father can rest assured can we solve this urgent need." .” Li Yu said.

Zhao Qingming remained silent, and the other party said again: "My eleventh uncle will go to Beijun soon to join the feudal clan. I can persuade my father to agree to Tan Muqiu to take my eleventh uncle to Gubian in Beijun with Hongfengying."

"Please trouble Your Highness the Crown Prince." Zhao Qingming said in a neutral tone.

"I am the prince, and no one in this world can do anything to me except my father." Li Yu said with a half-smile, "But Tan Muqiu is different..."

"His Royal Highness, you might as well speak directly if you have something to say." Zhao Qingming said coldly again.

Li Yu frowned slightly, and after a long silence, he said, "I want you to come to the East Palace to be my bodyguard. In exchange, I can let my eleventh uncle protect Qin Muqiu's life."

"I'm afraid you don't need to bother His Royal Highness, the Zhao family will not be unable to protect his life." Zhao Qingming said and left.

"Zhao Qingming...you have rejected me repeatedly. Do you think my East Palace is just a display?" Li Yu was a little annoyed, and then said: "I only give you one day, you should go back and ask your father before you answer me. .”

Zhao Qingming came back to his senses, looked at Zhao Shuo and said, "So, seven years ago, you told me that, and asked me to persuade Mu Qiu to leave and go to the East Palace to work as an errand?"

"You were young back then, so I can't tell you too much. I have said everything that should be said today." Zhao Shuo sighed, as if he had put down a big rock that had been lifted for more than 20 years.

"You tell me this, does it have anything to do with His Majesty looking for you today?" Zhao Qingming asked.

"The one who should come will always come." Zhao Shuo said with a solemn expression: "The former emperor kept the Zhao family, but now this one on the dragon chair, I don't know what's on his mind."

"What do you mean?" Zhao Qingming asked.

"I can't see Li Yu through. We can only make plans in advance, just in case." Zhao Shuo said.

A thought suddenly flashed in Zhao Qingming's mind, and then he looked at Zhao Shuo incredulously, and couldn't help feeling a chill from the bottom of his heart.He suddenly felt that he was really confused. He had been with Li Yu for seven years but he didn't seem to know Li Yu. What was even more frightening was that the man in front of him who had been his father for more than 20 years was so strange to him.

Royal Palace.

Tan Muqiu pressed his chest with one hand, and stood up with some difficulty.

The queen mother hesitated and said, "Yu'er, you are already a father, and you can no longer do things regardless of the consequences."

"Mother's queen." Tan Muqiu tried his best to stabilize his body, his face was pale, and he said, "Have you seen my mother?"

The queen mother's complexion changed when she heard the words, she closed her eyes and sighed, "I saw it in my dream."

The corners of Tan Muqiu's mouth were slightly curved, as if smiling, and then walked away.

After leaving the palace gate, he saw a figure standing beside Rong An, and when he got closer, he realized that it was Zhao Qingming.Rong An consciously followed behind the two, keeping a little distance between them.

Because of the moon, the night was not heavy, and the two walked side by side, each of them was silent for a long time, Tan Muqiu said first: "Did you know it since you were young?"

Zhao Qingming was taken aback when he heard the words, and then said: "I only knew about it seven years ago. Before today, I didn't know everything."

Tan Muqiu sneered, and said, "Since I was sensible, they told me that my mother passed away not long after I was born."

"Some things, it's better not to know than to know." Zhao Qingming said.

"That's really good." Tan Muqiu said: "It's a pity that I couldn't hide it until I died, so that the merits and virtues can be considered complete."

Zhao Qingming remained silent.

Tan Muqiu asked again: "Li Yu...what kind of person is he?"

Zhao Qingming sighed, not knowing how to answer for a while.

"I don't know what kind of person Li Yu is." Zhao Qingming looked at Tan Muqiu's slightly blurred side face under the moonlight and said, "However, he was indeed the one who persuaded King Ning'an to take Hongfeng Ying in. "

Thinking of King Ning'an and Li Yu, Tan Muqiu sighed deeply.

From this point of view, it is even more difficult to explain the grievances between myself and these two people.

"Li Yu saved my life back then, and then designed to take my life himself seven years later." Tan Muqiu said with a wry smile, "He is really thoughtful, and I'm afraid I won't pay him back."

Seeing him like this, Zhao Qingming couldn't help but want to comfort him.But he saw him staggering and nearly fell down. Fortunately, Zhao Qingming reacted quickly and grabbed him and pulled him into his arms.

"What's going on?" Zhao Qingming raised his hand to test the other person's forehead, and said anxiously: "You have a fever, when did it happen?"

Cold sweat was already oozing from Qin Muqiu's face, and the pain in his chest kept coming, making it difficult for him to even breathe.Zhao Qingming's voice kept echoing in his ears, getting farther and farther away, until he could no longer hear it clearly.

The coldness around him became more and more intense, and Tan Muqiu vaguely felt that he had returned to Beijun.In the icy and snowy land, Tan Muqiu curled up in the thick snow cave, the cold wind howling by his ears.

I will definitely freeze to death here, and the heavy snow will bury me, and I will not even find a body.

Qin Muqiu thought.

Just when he felt that he had been frozen to death, he suddenly felt warmth on his face, and then his whole body seemed to be hugged by someone.Warmth gradually spread from the whole body, and the frozen mind gradually recovered.

"My lord..." Tan Muqiu opened his eyes, looking at the person who was breathing closely with him, his eyes were full of bewilderment.

Li Jin held Tan Muqiu in his arms, his cheeks almost touching the other's forehead, his eyes were red, as if he was holding a lost and found treasure in his arms.

"I've found you, it's all right." Li Jin said.

"I'm so afraid..."

"Don't be afraid, with me here, no one dares to touch you, and no one dares to touch the Red Maple Camp." Li Jin hugged the other party even tighter, and said word by word.

"But..." I'm Li Yu, Tan Muqiu thought to himself.

It was I who planned to kill Qin Muqiu, and also damaged many soldiers of the Hongfeng Battalion.

Qin Muqiu suddenly asked, "Do you know who I am?"

Li Jin was taken aback when he heard the words, and looked at the person in his arms in puzzlement.

"Uncle Eleven, I'm your nephew, and I'm Li Yu." Tan Muqiu said.

Li Jin's complexion changed, he drew out the dagger behind him, and stabbed Tan Muqiu's chest without hesitation.Bright red blood gushed out, staining a small piece of snow beside Tan Muqiu red.

"My lord..." Tan Muqiu coughed up a mouthful of blood in pain, only to feel the pain in his chest and almost suffocate.

Li Jin knelt on the snow, looked at Tan Muqiu, suddenly realized something, stretched out his hands to hold the other's face and said, "How could this be...you...how could this be?"

The blood from the wound kept gushing out, and Tan Muqiu's consciousness gradually became lax.Before losing consciousness, he felt warm liquid dripping onto his face, and then warm lips fell on his lips.

He kissed him.

Li Jin and Li Yu must be in love.Qin Muqiu thought to himself.

In the past seven years, Li Jin's accommodating and caring for him in every possible way may also have an element of love, but it is definitely because of Li Yue.In order to fulfill Li Yu's wish to save his brother's life, Li Jin took him in and never treated him harshly.

In many moments, perhaps Li Jin would also mistake himself for Li Yu, that's why he has those tenderness and pampering that seem to be absent.

Why did they turn against each other in the end, why Li Yu wanted to kill his brother...

Tan Muqiu was groggy and didn't know how long he had slept. When he opened his eyes, he found that he had returned to Ninghe Hall.

Tan Muqiu subconsciously got up and wanted to call Rong An, but found a tall figure standing not far away.Seeing that he was awake, the other party hurriedly knelt on one knee and said, "Your Majesty, you are awake."

"Wait." Qin Muqiu looked around and couldn't see Rong An's figure. He couldn't help but wondered, and asked, "Why are you here? Where is Rong An?"

Kneeling on the ground, Shang Wait seemed a little at a loss, and said, "Return to Your Majesty... I... I don't know."

"I don't know?" Tan Muqiu got off the bed, without shoes on, went straight to Shang et al, stared at him for a while.Seeing the panic on the other party's face, he simply walked around him to the door, and pushed the door open.

The strong sunlight shone in, shaking Tan Muqiu to cover his eyes with his hands.

"Your Majesty." A row of Habayashi soldiers stood in front of the hall and knelt on one knee to salute Tan Muqiu.

Tan Muqiu was surprised for a long time before recovering, then he retreated into the room and closed the door, and said, "Wait, you are... rebelling?"
