King's favor is hard to do

People don't care about these few issues and talk about other things?After all, it is in front of everyone, talking about the love in my heart..."

"No. I have herbs in my hand, which will make people lose their minds and spit out the truth inadvertently."

"Do you need medicine?"

Huaihe was not happy immediately,

"This person has a lot to do with it, and there must be no mistakes. You can't rape him."

"This is the shaman's secret medicine. They are all natural herbal medicines, the taste is very light, and they will not harm the body. Shamanism already uses herbs to help the gods, and those medicines have a stronger taste. This is just to call him It's even more distracting, so it's easy to speak out what's on your mind. If the medicine wasn't for the shaman, who probed with his heart, he wouldn't have found it at all."

"..."

Having said this, Huai He became more vigilant in his heart.he asked,

"You say you are not a shamanist, but you know so much about shamanism's witchcraft and herbs. It is said that shamanism is a master-student inheritance, and it is kept secret from outsiders. Why do you know this?"

"I'm not a shaman now, and it doesn't mean I wasn't in the past. It's true that it's a master-student inheritance, but my master has an elm head—no, the entire shamanism is an elm head, but my master is the most stubborn. .”

The boy smiled slightly and stopped talking.

"This is all my own private matter, I guess you are not interested. You have tried my skills, you should be at ease. Moreover, if you want to pretend to be a shaman without being noticed, I am the only one who can do it in the entire Western Man .”

Huaihe pursed his lips and looked at the young man's expression.But the young man raised his eyes to meet his gaze, still with a smile on his face.This calm expression is completely different from his age.Huaihe suddenly felt that it was Qin Ling who was willing to express joy and anger, which was what a young man should look like.

——It's better not to be so harsh on him next time.After all, he is still young, so he should have a youthful heart.

As for the person in front of him, Huai He still couldn't be more relieved.But he was recruited by Han Yuan.Mr. Han said that this person owed him an adult favor in the early years, and this time he was willing to perform a play for them to repay it.So be sure.Why didn't Huai trust this young man, but trusted Han Yuan, so he didn't ask any more questions.

"it is good."

He nodded to the boy,

"Then I'll leave everything to you at the market tomorrow."

……

The market is just ahead.

Huaihe glanced at the heavy car curtains—this was what he asked someone to put on before he went out this time.Not only does it compress the wind, but it is also soundproof.So he couldn't hear a word of what he said when he arranged secretly just now.

But he ignored one point.

With such a soundproof door curtain, if someone said something inside, they would not be able to hear a word outside.If not, he would have heard of Tuya's origin earlier, and it would not have caused such a big disturbance.

in the car.

Tuya pouted, still a little unhappy.Seeing his angry look, Du Yuzhang laughed and said,

"Tuya, we haven't gone out together for a long time. Be happy, just treat it as shopping with me. Besides, didn't you say that? There are some Yan soldiers outside Pinggu Pass who always want to bully Western Man traders. I guess it's related to Xu Jiajun's The rebellion has something to do with it, and it just so happens that these situations are brought together this time and resolved at once.”

"Humph."

Tuya was still a little depressed.he whispered,

"Mr. Du, tell the truth—are you for the merchants of the Western Man, or for Emperor Dayan?"

"..."

"Don't lie to me. I am the grandson of a shaman, and I will be a great shaman in the future! If you lie to me, the gods will be unhappy!"

"Yes, yes, Tuya is the grandson of the great shaman, and he is proficient in herbs. He will definitely be a great shaman in the future."

Du Yuzhang avoided Tuya's question and just rubbed the boy's head.He looked far away, shook his head and smiled.

——The answer is actually already in the hearts of everyone.Even Tuya herself was not unaware.But he wanted to ask persistently, but he was entangled. Behind this sincere heart was his love and reluctance for Du Yuzhang and Su Rucheng, the young master.

So even if the answer was in his heart, Du Yuzhang didn't want to just say it and hurt the innocent boy in front of him.

There was such a big disturbance in Pinggu Pass, all the troops were still in a state of emergency and did not dare to relax.But for Shengdou Xiaomin, this is just another ordinary day.The market is still crowded and bustling.

After getting off the carriage, Du Yuzhang took Tuya and quickly blended into it, stopping in front of a shop from time to time to buy something, and chatting with the street vendor.

"Chief guard, is it time to act?"

Hearing the whisper in his ear, Huai He nodded slightly.The voice around him never sounded again.Why didn't Huai look back, and knew that the guard in plain clothes had disappeared into the crowd.

Soon, there was some commotion ahead.

"Suona? Isn't this tune played only to welcome the coming of the gods?"

Tuya was the first to discover this familiar tune.Soon, the crowd in front began to commotion.Tuya stood up, looked towards the source of the commotion, and found a person in the distance, wearing a long coat decorated with furs of birds and animals, even covering his head and face.He was stepping on dance steps, slowly coming in this direction.

"Shaman dance? God descends? Which priest is this? Why did you invite God to the market?" Tuya was a little surprised, "Besides, I should know all the shamans around here, not so young... "

When the shaman asks the god to bend down, no one else can disturb him.Even if they are both priests, this is also the custom of the Western Man.So Tuya dragged Du Yuzhang back out of the way.

"Mr. Du, this should be asking God, just passing by. Let's avoid it and tell him to pass by."

Tuya didn't expect that the priest had already stopped in front of them before he finished speaking.He danced and made a few more movements—Tuya knew that this meant that the god had descended.

The Western barbarians believed that after the birth, the words and deeds of the priests represented the will of the gods.Mortals cannot refuse the priest's inquiry at this moment.

The priest stopped and stretched out a hand to Du Yuzhang.

"what?"

Tuya was stunned.Du Yuzhang glanced at him in bewilderment,

"This……"

"Hold out your hands quickly, this is the will of the gods!"

The Ximan street vendor behind him looked excited,

"The gods have a sign, and the priests will do it... This is not asking the gods to go up, this is the gods descending, it is rare! It is the gods who guided the priests to find you! You go with him, this is the gods who have something to ask you !"

"..."

This is the first time Du Yuzhang has heard of this statement.He glanced at Tuya again.

"It's been said, but it's very rare."

As Tuya spoke, he stared at the priest—at this moment, the priest lowered his head, his eyes were covered by the wide animal skin sacrificial hat, and only a pair of thin lips were exposed, looking very young.

Is there such a priest around here?

"Mr. Du, I feel something is wrong..."

Tuya's words were cut off in the air.The priest suddenly raised his head, looked at him with a pair of eyes that were as bright as meteors, and smiled with his thin lips, romantic and affectionate.

——Why is this face so familiar?Where has he seen it... He must have seen it!

With this amazing effort, Du Yuzhang has been dragged away by the priest.Behind them were the Ximan street vendors who knelt down excitedly, and there was a sound of prayers praising the gods.

Now that things have happened, it is absolutely impossible to forcibly pull Du Yuzhang back.Tuya could only grit her teeth and follow.

After three turns and two turns, we came to an open grassland.The shaman murmured something, walked around Du Yuzhang a few times, and threw something on the ground from his arms.Then, he put a white mark on the tip of Du Yuzhang's nose with his palm, and rubbed it on the top of his head.Du Yuzhang's eyes gradually became dazed.

"Mr. Du!"

Tuya wanted to rush over, but was caught by the shaman with one arm.He raised his head and was about to go into a fit, but his gaze fell into the shaman's star-like eyes again.

"Let go... ah..."

The shaman's palm suddenly covered Tuya's face.A rush of herbal medicine rushed to the face, and Tuya was stunned, and her body went limp.He could feel the shaman lowering him gently to the ground and wrapping a black robe over him.

Around, there were several people in black robes like this.This is also part of the ceremony - they represent the shadows around the gods and will ask the chosen one many questions for the gods.In these questions, the will of the gods is hidden.And the chosen one must not lie, nor can he lie.The shaman's herbal medicine will erase all the coverings in his heart, leaving only the most original thoughts.

Tuya felt that something was wrong.But he was powerless to resist, so he could only kneel on the ground and raise his head in a daze.He saw that the priest's movements were as light as a bird, with his waist stretched out. It was indeed the most authentic shaman dance.

But that person himself... doesn't seem to be here...

He couldn't bear to think about it.The priest flipped his palm and rubbed his fingers, a flame rose from his palm, and quickly ignited a circle of dry grass on the ground, forming a mysterious pattern.

The ritual of inviting the gods has begun.The people in black robes stepped forward one by one, asking their own questions.In the sound of whistling wind and burning hay, every answer of Du Yuzhang was clearly audible, reaching the ears of everyone present.

Until a tall man in black robe knelt down in front of him.

When the man spoke, his voice was a little low, with a Dayan accent.

"who are you?"

"I'm Du Yuzhang."

"Why are you here?"

"I'm here... to hide from someone."

"Who do you want to hide from?"

"My beloved."

There was a pause.A hand touched Du Yuzhang's face.The man's palms were dry and warm, and he gently lifted Du Yuzhang's face.Du Yuzhang narrowed his eyes, in a trance, he instinctively rubbed his cheek against the palm of that person's hand.

The prairie of Ximan, it is so green four

"Since you love him, why do you hide from him?"

"Because I shouldn't love him."

"……why?"

"His status is too special. So many people, such a large piece of land... all depend on him... He shouldn't be caught up in this love between his son and daughter, and forget his responsibility for me."

Du Yuzhang lowered his head, struggling in his dazed eyes.

"If I'm with him...will he do more wrong things because of me?"

"Are you so unsure of him?"

"No. I'm just... scared."

"What if he's going to do what he's supposed to do?"

Du Yuzhang smiled, still shaking his head.

"No...he can't do it. You don't understand, none of you understand..."

——He said I was a monster.A monstrosity that harms the country and the people.I used to think he was wrong.But now it seems... all these years, he only does his best when I'm not around.But after I met him again, how many ridiculous things did he do for me?As a king, how could he put himself in danger?How can you die for love?If he can die for me today, then one day, who can guarantee that he won't become a fool for me?

The herbal medicine disintegrated all Du Yuzhang's vigilance and defenses, and also eliminated all his concealment and strength.What's more, this topic is originally a heart disease of Du Yuzhang, but it has been hidden deep in his heart and has never been revealed.Unprepared at this moment, he raised his eyes in a daze, and tears kept gushing out from the corners of his eyes, staining his cheeks.

The man in black robe kneeling in front of him also raised his head.His face was covered by a black cloth, leaving only a pair of eagle eyes, and the flames danced in his eyes.

The man in black stretched out his hand and wiped away the tears on Du Yuzhang's face.Those hands were gentle, as if solemnly making a promise.But without saying a word, he got up and retreated into the shadows.

……

The ceremony continued.Everyone else asked irrelevant questions, and no one noticed this little episode any more.

Except Tuya.

As early as when the strange aroma of herbs wafted into his nostrils, he realized something was wrong.But the medicine took effect very quickly, and the dance of the shaman had a strange power that took the soul away.Unable to respond, he too fell into a trance.But after all, he is the grandson of the high priest, and he deals with herbs every day.Tuya still maintained a sobriety, constantly struggling with the effects of the medicine.

"Huh...huh..."

He was covered in sweat, almost seeping through the black robe.Suddenly, a shadow fell in front of him—it was the priest, and he stretched out his hand to Tuya.

"It's your turn."

"Do not……"

"Do you have any questions for the gods?"

"……Who are you?"

Tuya struggled to ask a question.In order to resist the effects of the medicine, he had tried his best, and there was nothing else he could do.

The priest stared at him, and suddenly smiled.As the flames flickered, his eyes became brighter.

"You are still so disobedient."

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand to stroke Shangtuya's head again.A more intense herbal scent rushed into Tuya's nose, and he knelt down on the ground, no longer having the energy to speak.His head drooped weakly, and in the corner of his eyes, the priest's robe flashed past, and he had already turned to the next man in black.

……

Soon, the ceremony was completely over.The shaman hid in the vast grassland just like when he appeared, with his followers and the strange fragrance of herbs behind him.All that was left was the ashes after the flames had burnt out, forming a pattern symbolizing the gods.

It took Du Yuzhang a long time to wake up from the trance.The other people in black robes around him were similar, except for Tuya.

After being used twice of herbal medicine, Tuya fell into a trance deeper than all of them.Du Yuzhang could only watch over him worriedly, sitting on the grassland and waiting for him to recover.

"Master Du, are you alright?"

It's Huaihe.He approached, half kneeling on the ground, and asked softly,

"Do you want to rest in the carriage? The grassland is windy, and it's a bit cold here."

"I'm not cold."

Du Yuzhang was worried,

"Chief Huai, can you do me a favor?"

"What's the matter? Master Du, please tell me."

"Can you not tell His Majesty what happened just now?"

"What happened just now?"

"..."

"Just now, I only heard Mr. Du express his heart, saying that your beloved is a special and extremely noble person...that many people and lands depend on him...that your estrangement is not because you don't love him, but I dare not love him... Is this what Master Du said?"

"Huai Guard Chief!"

Du Yuzhang was in a hurry,

"Since the shaman took the medicine, you should know that I am not clear-headed! How can you count what you say at a time like this?"

"Lord Du, I heard that the shamans of the West Mansion used herbs not to shake their minds, but to clear away distracting thoughts. So what they said at this time can more represent the true thoughts in their hearts."

"you!"

Du Yuzhang leaned forward and hurriedly said to him,

"Chief Guard Huai, if you say that...you...then I have to tell you the truth - Your Majesty is too obsessed with me, it is not a good thing at all! He is the monarch, the Son of Heaven, His Majesty the Emperor of the world! He You should always put the common people and the community first, and you should never interfere with his decision because of me! But he... He is too obsessed with me, it is not a good thing! Chief Guard Huai, if you can understand this, don't make a mistake. Tell us what happened today! This is for the common people!"

Speaking of this, Du Yuzhang wanted to get up.Huaihe knelt on the ground one and a half steps ahead of him, holding his arm.

"Lord Du, why should you not disobey what you said. It's just that what your majesty should know and what you shouldn't know is something that I can't decide. I am your majesty's subject, and I can't lie to him. Besides..."

——Besides, His Majesty has already heard it with his own ears.

Huaihe thought in his heart, but said in his mouth,

"What's more, there are so many people here, Mr. Du can stop me, but not everyone's. So Mr. Du, don't think about it. If you are really worried, when you are with His Majesty in the future, you But I just want to persuade His Majesty a lot. You are a virtuous minister, and His Majesty is also a wise king. If you are there to assist, I am afraid that His Majesty will become a generation of sages.

Du Yuzhang glanced at him and sighed softly.

——Where did Huaihe know that his majesty once died in love for himself in front of him.If not, I'm afraid he will be the first to agree to send himself away far away, and he will no longer be a monster who bewitches the monarch!

After such a commotion, Du Yuzhang didn't have the mood to go shopping anymore, and planned to go back directly.

Who knew that after getting into the carriage and lowering the curtain, Tuya turned over and sat up with a grunt.Du Yuzhang was startled, and just about to speak, he covered his mouth.

"Mr. Du...don't listen to him!"

Tuya whispered in his ear,

"There's something wrong with that shaman!"

"What's the problem? I've been in Ximan for many years, and I've seen shaman sacrifices many times. He's doing the same thing as your grandfather. And just now I was dazed but ethereal, as if I was integrated with the heaven and the earth. You don’t have to hide anything, and you speak out what you think in your heart without knowing it... If it weren’t for your shaman witchcraft, I would have never experienced this feeling.”

"I didn't say that his witchcraft is wrong, but this person is not at all..." Halfway through the speech, Tuya was taken aback suddenly, "What, so Mr. Du just said what you said from your heart?"

"..."

Du Yuzhang was a little sad.He lowered his eyes, but heard Tuya's excited voice,

"It turns out that Mr. Du, you are not so heartless, are you really interested in our young master?"

"what?"

"The person you mentioned—the person you came here to hide from is the one you love, but you dare not love him! Because his status is too special, because so many people and such a large piece of land depend on him, So you are afraid that he will be trapped in this love for children, and forget his responsibility for you—isn’t this our young master?"

"What? No, actually..."

"Mr. Du, you don't have to deny it! If it's someone else, why are you so entangled? You say you can't and shouldn't be with him, isn't it because you are from Dayan and he is from Western Man? The man in black asked you' If he will do what he should do well, "Whether you can be with him, but you say that the man in black doesn't understand—but I understand! It's not because he is afraid that if he is with you, the former Dayan man, he will be with you." Being made things difficult by other tribes and causing trouble? Master Du, don’t be afraid! We all like you, and the entire Ximan tribe will support you! The young master can fight, and whoever dares to be unconvinced by then will be convinced! No one Dare to say irresponsible things to you!"

"..."

At this moment, Du Yuzhang looked at Tuya, as if seeing a miniature version of Su Rucheng.

No, maybe this is the commonality of the Western barbarians.Enthusiastic, firm, and a little innocent, and especially like to fight and shout... Although Du Yuzhang likes their sunny personalities, he still feels a little tired at such moments.

"So that shaman, what's the problem?"

Du Yuzhang interrupted Tuya to stop him from talking nonsense.Tuya was still young, so she was abducted by him, and she obediently took the bait.

"Oh, you said him. That person, I used to study with my grandfather when I was young. It's just that he only stayed for more than a year, and I never saw him again. I was only five or six years old at that time, and many things I can’t remember clearly, I just remember that I like to play with him very much, but he seldom pays attention to me... He is several years older than me, and he was already a teenager at that time. But he is very smart, and he has already learned about his grandfather’s witchcraft. proficient."

There was some confusion in Tuya's eyes,

"I don't know where he went, but all shamans have to participate in the ceremony hosted by Grandpa. He never came... He is not a real priest. So this ceremony is not a real ceremony. Someone took him Here, I'm here to trick you, Mr. Du."

"...Yeah. If it wasn't for you being by my side, I would have been concealed. I really thought it was God's favor, and I was destined to have to reveal my thoughts..."

A layer of frost suddenly appeared on Du Yuzhang's face, and his brows were also furrowed.He paused for a moment and asked softly,

"And the shamanism I practiced that day was just someone drugging me, forcing me to be in a trance, and say something against my will! Isn't it? To do such a thing..."

"Ah? This..."

Tuya was stunned.He thought to himself, Mr. Du finally expressed his love for the young master, how could he make him shrink back again?He hastened to speak,

"That's not true. That person also uses the shaman system of spells, and the herbs are naturally shaman's herbs. Of course, some of them have strange fragrances, which seem to make people feel in a trance. But in fact, the more in a trance, the more the words are To tell the truth—that day, Mr. Du, what you said was your truth, even more truth than usual!"

"..."

It's okay if he doesn't say.With this said, Du Yuzhang's complexion became even uglier.He bit his lip, almost biting blood, before whispering,

"I said that if you don't count, you don't count. Tuya, what is the truth and not the truth... You are not allowed to mention this matter in the future."

"How can I do that? Mr. Du, you finally revealed your sincerity, the young master must be happy to know! Mr. Du, the young master likes you so much, he must come to you day and night after knowing this! Do you have the heart to make him sad? ?”

"If you really don't want him to be sad, then don't tell him about it! Tuya, it's not what you think at all, and I have no personal feelings for Young Master Su... Forget it, you're still young, don't want to talk about it No matter what, let alone mention it again!"

"Mr. Du...don't be like this..."

"Don't act like a baby. Close your eyes and mouth for me—be obedient and let me be alone for a while."

Tuya obediently shut her mouth.He really didn't mention this matter again.

Du Yuzhang thought it was over like this.It's a pity that he forgot that there is another characteristic of the Western barbarians, that is, they like to make their own decisions - after entering the door, Tuya didn't even bother to drink, grabbed a pen from Du Yuzhang's desk and started writing letters.After finishing writing, he found out that the piece of paper he grabbed was Du Yuzhang's private note.

"Accidentally used Mr. Du's letterhead, he shouldn't be angry, right?"

Finger pinched Du Yuzhang's name badge under the letterhead, and Tuya scratched her head.But he was too lazy to copy it again.

"Forget it, anyway, this time he not only used his paper on his own initiative, but also wrote a letter to the young master for him on his own initiative. If he was found out, he probably wouldn't care to be angry because of this piece of paper—then don't bother gone."

Just like that, when Du Yuzhang was still busy feeling resentful because Li Guangning lied to him, he didn't know that the Xinyan sent by Tuya had already flown over the grassland and reached Su Rucheng's hands.

The grassland of Ximan, it is so green

Du Yuzhang stood with his hands behind his back, his black hair drooping down behind him.If someone passed by outside the window, they would see a stunning man with gloomy expression and cold eyes, looking up at the flickering clouds in the sky.

It's been that way since yesterday.After returning from the market, he shut himself up in his room without even eating his supper.Woke up this morning again...

Tuya was worried.

He thought, why is the young master so useless?The wolf hunting place is only a day away from here, why haven't you come back yet?But he forgot that it would take time for Xin Yan to fly there.Su Ru's achievement is to travel day and night without sleep and rest, and he can only arrive this morning.

"Mr. Du, you should eat something."

"..."

"Mr. Du!"

"Ah... Tuya?"

Du Yuzhang woke up from his contemplation, and turned his head to look over.He saw Tuya holding a food box in his hand, and guessed his intentions.

"I'm not hungry yet. Tuya, eat first."

"What can I do then? If you don't eat, you will starve to death! You are not in good health, why don't you know how to take care of it. Mr. Du, if the young master comes back to see you like this, he will definitely feel sorry for him..." Speaking Here, Tuya suddenly thought of something.He tilted his head in doubt, "Hey, it's strange to say. Mr. Du, this season is not good for your health. But it seems that you haven't relapsed from your old diseases for so long recently... Could it be that you went to Seeing a doctor, did it really work?"

—Of course it worked.However, what worked was not what Tu Yaso thought was the merit of medicine and stones, but the life that Li Guangning forced on him.

——The man used a sharp knife to pierce his abdomen in exchange for his patient to be cured, but he was lying in a coffin, so cold...

Thinking of this, Du Yuzhang clenched his teeth again.

In fact, what he said yesterday was what was in his heart, but not all of what was in his heart - it was true that Li Guangning, who was already paranoid and stubborn, would do something irreparable because of him.That was indeed a heart disease buried deep in his heart.But so many thrilling turmoil with Li Guangning has also come, and even the catastrophe of life and death has also come.How could he really want to abandon that person just because of the snack?

Hidden worries belong to hidden worries.If Du Yuzhang is sober, he will definitely resolve this worry on his own, and try his best to help Li Guangning straighten his heart and become a prosperous king.

What made him feel angry with Li Guangning was that the man didn't care about his own life in the final analysis.Li Guangning's death almost broke him, and when he thinks about it now, his heart can't help trembling—angry, sad, trembling with anger, but he can't help but feel distressed.

Then, because he was angry with himself for his distress, he turned his anger back on Li Guangning—like a summer rainstorm, which looked like thunder.In fact, after venting for a while, it should be fine.

But he didn't expect that Li Guangning would lie to him?What shamanism?What herbal ecstasy?

And just cheated him so miserably, not long after he hugged that man's corpse in agony, he did it deliberately!Deliberately!deliberately!lie to him! ! !It's not enough to lie to him!And find a group of people to cheat with!

How stupid is Du Yuzhang in the eyes of that bastard?Thinking of such a trick to trick him into telling the truth, doesn't he have a little bit of conscience?

The more Du Yuzhang thought about it, the more angry he became.A mouthful of silver teeth was almost crushed by him.

Originally, he planned to take advantage of discussing with Li Guangning about the peace talks at Pingguguan, give that person a step down, and just move back.Especially here is Su Rucheng's place, he and Su Rucheng were as awkward as before, so it's not that big of a deal to stay here all the time.

But now...

"Tuya. Help me unpack the few packages I packed up earlier, and put them back."

Du Yuzhang spoke cruelly.

"I've changed my mind. I'm still living here for a while, I won't pack my luggage, and I won't leave!"

"it is good!"

Tuya's eyes lit up, and she couldn't close her mouth with a smile.He strengthened his thoughts even more - sure enough, Lord Du likes the young master!You see, I revealed my thoughts yesterday, but I won’t leave today.That's great, should I go back and think about it, what gift should I give them for their wedding?

--correct!There are several kinds of herbs that my grandfather prepared before, and I never let me touch them.He said that I can wait until I become a talent, but now I am still a little young, and my bones cannot stand it.At that time, I asked, and he also said that it was just a bath herb for soaking in the bath. When I have a sweetheart, he will give me another can.

——Thinking about it, it's because those herbs are too expensive, and the children used them to break their luck, so grandpa said I couldn't stand it?But if it is the young master and Lord Du, they are already distinguished, so they should not be afraid of these things.How about... I secretly take two cans for Mrs. Du and the others to use in the bath on their wedding night?

Du Yuzhang's face was sullen, never expecting that the young man next to him was thinking of stealing two cans of the most powerful aphrodisiac bath herb in the whole Ximan as a gift for him.He was so focused on being angry that he was so sullen that he didn't even hear the movement outside the window.

It wasn't until his own name came to his ears that he suddenly woke up and pushed open the window——

Outside the window, the person he was gritting his teeth to hold grudges was asking loudly,

"Has Du Yuzhang ever woken up? Go and report—just say that his husband is here to pick him up!"

"..."

With a bang, Du Yuzhang pushed the window shut again.

"Hey, Yuzhang?"

Unexpectedly, the sound was so loud that the people below raised their heads.Sui was just a glimpse, but how could Li Guangning fail to recognize the white-clothed and black-haired person behind the window, who was his sweetheart who was coming to greet him?

"Yuzhang, what are you doing hiding? Tell them to open the door! I'm here to pick you up!"

Du Yuzhang's face turned dark immediately.He was already in a bad mood, but Li Guangning's tone was full of complacency.

——I am afraid that after hearing Huai He's briefing yesterday, His Majesty thought that he had seen through his mind!He came to the door so complacently, is he determined to eat himself?

"Quickly open the door! Shutting your husband out, what are you talking about?"

——Husband? !

Du Yuzhang's face turned even darker.

"Mr. Du! Is this Emperor Dayan?"

His face turned blue and red, and Tuya had already seen the clue.The boy rolled up his sleeves,

"What kind of place does he think this is? Outside the Pinggu Pass is my Western Man territory, and this is just an enclave that we leased to Dayan! Doing business for merchants, but not for him to be arrogant! So what about Emperor Dayan? Oh, look at me and drive him away! If he doesn't leave, I'll beat him out with a stick!"

"What? Don't mess around! Tuya!"

Du Yuzhang was surprised.However, Tuya had already rushed out of the door aggressively.

Du Yuzhang quickly opened the window.At this moment, before Tuya had time to go downstairs, Li Guangning kept looking at the window eagerly.Seeing him showing his head, Li Guangning's eyes lit up, and he grinned so much that he could see a mouthful of white teeth.

"Yuzhang, why are you hiding? Are you shy? What's the matter... It's only natural for me to pick you up! Come down quickly, I still have something to tell you!"

"..."

Du Yuzhang frowned, his face became more serious.Li Guangning was stunned for a moment, the original burgeoning nature was poured with cold water, and the light in his eyes disappeared.The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, as if aggrieved, but he held back and smiled at Du Yuzhang.

Seeing him like this, Du Yuzhang was taken aback, and suddenly felt sad.With a movement of his lips, he was almost subconsciously calling him "Your Majesty"—at this moment, Tuya rushed out of the door like a cannonball, almost crashing into Li Guangning's arms.

"Tuya, come back!"

"Mr. Du? They're all bullying us - don't worry, it's okay!"

After Tuya finished speaking, she waved to Du Yuzhang.Li Guangning was on the side, looking at him eagerly, like a big wolf dog.Looking at these two people, Du Yuzhang became even more disturbed, and closed the window again.

……

"What are you doing here? Do you know that this is my western man's place? No matter what your status is, you can't act wild here! Take your men and leave quickly!"

Is this okay?The plainclothes guards behind Li Guangning immediately took a step forward, their palms resting on the handle of the knife at their waist.Just wait for Li Guangning to make a gesture, and the sharp knife will be unsheathed!Naturally, Ximan was not to be outdone, and rushed forward one after another.

The atmosphere is very tense.It looked like they were going to fight in the next second.

"What? You really want to do something? I, a Ximan man, have never been afraid of trouble!"

"That's interesting. Do you think I, Da Yan, are some people who are greedy for life and afraid of death?"

Li Guangning looked at the row of Western barbarians on the opposite side, raised his sword eyebrows slightly, and shouted in a deep voice,

"Get out of the way! Don't block my way! Otherwise, don't blame me, Dayan, for being strong and sharp, and for being ruthless!"

Although Du Yuzhang closed the window, he was still worried.He peeked out through the crack of the window and saw this scene.

Immediately, the veins on his forehead throbbed, and his heart became angry.

It is indeed the style of the West barbarians to start fighting when there is a disagreement.In particular, Tuya, who is in his teens, is leading the team—it is reasonable to be impulsive at this age.

So the one on the opposite side has been an emperor for many years, why are you here to join in the fun?I don't know how many people worked so hard for Dayan and Ximan to maintain today's peace? !

Du Yuzhang was so angry that he felt inexplicable grievances.He thought, after all, it is the nobles of the royal family with golden branches and jade leaves!Don't take other people's hard work seriously!If because of you, this great border peace has changed, I, I...

"Forget it. You are a child, I don't care about you."

Unexpectedly, Li Guangning's voice outside the window suddenly softened a lot.Du Yuzhang is not ignorant of his temper, he has always been tough and domineering.But at this moment, he waved his hand and told the guards behind him to retreat half a step,

"Although I'm not afraid of you, I didn't come here today to cause trouble. Get out of the way, I want to find Du Yuzhang."

"Do you know whose place this is? This is our young master's annex,
