King's favor is hard to do

Son?How did you come? "

"I'm here to find..."

"No matter who you are looking for, it won't work. Let's go quickly, our general and Lord Bai Han are inconvenient to meet guests today."

The steward could not help but push Du Yuzhang away.He looked anxious, as if there was something important going on in the general's mansion and he would never dare to let Du Yuzhang bump into it.

"Please inform me that Du Yuzhang is here. No matter which master Han Bai is here, he will definitely meet me!"

"If you say you can't, you can't, so go away!"

The steward half pushed and half pulled Du Yuzhang, trying to drive him out of the house.Du Yuzhang held the door frame and said in a low voice,

"But I have something urgent..."

"You look gentle and gentle, why are you so shameless?"

The manager was really in a hurry, and he started a lot harder.He pushed Du Yuzhang staggering backwards, tripped over the threshold, and fell firmly to the ground.

"Master Du?"

A crisp boyish voice sounded.Du Yuzhang suddenly raised his head,

"Master Bai! I have something urgent, I want to see..."

The word "Your Majesty" circled in Du Yuzhang's mouth, and then swallowed it back.The manager is still there, and Li Guangning is visiting privately through a WeChat server, so he can't reveal his whereabouts at will.But as long as I see Bai Jiaoran, it will be fine, if I see him, I will definitely see His Majesty...

"Master Du, get up quickly. Did you get hurt?"

The door of the General's Mansion was half open, covering most of the scenery inside.Du Yuzhang could only see Bai Jiaoran's anxious face and the outstretched hand.He was helped up by Bai Jiaoran, before he could stand still, he couldn't wait to ask in a low voice,

"Master Bai, can you help me find His Majesty?"

As he spoke, he supported Bai Jiaoran's arm and stepped inwards into the General's Mansion.When he looked up, he froze.

Dozens of pairs of eyes looked at him in unison.Just across from him, three carriages were parked side by side in the courtyard.Behind the carriage, several teams of guards were dressed in various uniforms and were ready to go.

Dozens of civil and military officials were watching him.The one standing in front of everyone had a pair of eagle eyes, his brows were slightly frowned, and his expression was somewhat fierce.

It was Li Guangning.

Du Yuzhang froze in place.He really wanted to see Li Guangning, but he didn't expect to be so caught off guard and under the watchful eyes of everyone.He didn't even know what to say and could only stand there blankly.

His gaze cast on Li Guangning involuntarily, but Li Guangning turned his face away.Du Yuzhang could feel his gaze sweeping across his face, but his gaze didn't stop for a moment.

Li Guangning lifted the hem of his robe and boarded the carriage without saying a word.

"who are you?"

Xu Haoran is the head of military officers and the master of the general's mansion.Seeing Du Yuzhang, he was startled at first, and then glanced at Li Guangning - such a random intruder happened to bump into the imperial driver who was visiting Weifu privately!

——Your Majesty won't be angry, will you?

Seeing that Li Guangning got into the carriage as usual, he was relieved.But towards this unknown scholar in front of him, his attitude was even stricter.

"Why don't you answer my question? Break into the general's mansion privately—someone, take him to me and lock him up, and ask him carefully! If the plot is found to be wrong, he will be severely punished!"

"and many more."

The person who spoke was Bai Jiaoran.He came over and politely said to Xu Haoran,

"This man is looking for me. General Xu is not in a hurry to deal with him, just leave it to me."

"Master Bai? It stands to reason that if Master Bai speaks, the lower officials dare not disobey. It's just..."

Xu Haoran glanced at Li Guangning again with an embarrassed expression.His meaning is also very clear - His Majesty is here, but someone suddenly barged in.Even if the prime minister opened his mouth to protect him, he didn't dare to agree casually!

Bai Jiaoran also looked at Li Guangning.

Li Guangning supported his forehead with one hand, kneading the space between his brows.He raised his head slightly, his jaw stretched into a cold crease.Those lips were pursed, with a flat expression.Looking detached and tired.

Bai Jiaoran was also a little uncertain.

——Master Du is here, shouldn't His Majesty directly call him into his carriage and sit with him?

——Why is Your Majesty so strange today that he ignored Mr. Du at all?

"Your Majesty, Du..."

Just as Bai Jiaoran opened his mouth, he was pulled by someone.Behind him, Han Yuan took a step forward and respectfully said to Li Guangning,

"Your Majesty, everything is ready. Do you want to go?"

"Let's go."

"Yes!"

Han Yuan straightened up, waved his hand,

"Let's go now!"

The guards responded in unison, holding their weapons tightly and tightening their reins.

Du Yuzhang still stood where he was.He watched Li Guangning in the carriage leaning back, his knuckle fingers moved from between his brows, and rested on his forehead, pressing heavily on his temples.

An eunuch whom Du Yuzhang didn't know stepped forward and lowered the curtain for him.

Du Yuzhang heard the eunuch's shrill voice,

"Long live, do you still have a headache? Why don't you go? Our family asked the doctor to make you a bowl of medicine to soothe your nerves..."

"Need not."

"But the servant is worried about the body of Long Live Lord..."

"roll."

The eunuch wanted to please him, but he was offended.His face turned sallow with fright, and he scrambled out of the carriage.

The guards hung up the car curtain for Li Guangning.At the moment when the curtain of the carriage was raised, Du Yuzhang saw Li Guangning's angular face flash past.The light in the carriage was dim, and the shadows under his eyes seemed extremely heavy.

The prairie of Ximan, it is so green

Headache?

Du Yuzhang was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly realized.When he was in the Eastern Palace, Li Guangning was very worried and strong.If there are important matters, he may stay up all night.Over time, you will suffer from headaches if you think too much.This is also an old problem, and Du Yuzhang also knew it.

It's just that I haven't seen him for a few years, and Du Yuzhang has almost forgotten about it.

In fact, the eunuch just now didn't need to ask if he should take a rest, or if he wanted refreshing soup.Li Guangning never liked to embarrass himself, if nothing happened, he would naturally rest in his room.If you have to go out, you have a reason to go out.What are you asking for?It bothered him for no reason.

At such a time, if Wang Li was around, he would just arrange things properly and tell Li Guangning to worry less.Then at the right time, the bowl of refreshing soup that has been boiled is served.When he was in the Eastern Palace, Wang Li often brought this bowl of soup to Du Yuzhang, and Du Yuzhang brought it in himself.

—Where is Wang Liren?

Du Yuzhang looked around, but did not see the familiar figure of the old man.He didn't know the leading general, and even the guards around Li Guangning had changed.

After all, three years have passed.In Dayan's court hall, beside Li Guangning, in fact, a generation of newcomers replaced the old ones.

At this moment, Du Yuzhang was in a trance.He had never felt so clearly how far time had pushed him and Li Guangning forward, and how long they had been separated.

"...still not let go?"

A low angry reprimand made Du Yuzhang tremble.When he regained his senses, he saw that the carriage that Li Guangning was sitting in was approaching him, and the driver was waving his whip and glaring at him.

"If you don't get out of the way, I'll beat you! You don't have any eyesight at all? Do you know who is sitting in this carriage? Get out of the way!"

The coachman was blocked on his way, and his expression was extremely impatient.The whip in his hand was raised high, and he threw it on the ground like a demonstration, with a crisp sound.The dust splashed everywhere, and Du Yuzhang slapped his face.

"Cough cough..."

While coughing, Du Yuzhang stepped back a few steps.I don't know what happened today, since he entered the general's mansion, everything is wrong.Stupid, I don't know what to do... I'm afraid that in the eyes of others, I look like a clumsy idiot.

Just in his daze, the carriage started to move forward.Three carriages passed by his eyes one after another.He stared at the front one until it exited the gate of the general's mansion.The curtain of the car has been tightly covered, and it has not been shaken.

Instead, the last car stopped suddenly.

The curtain of the car was lifted, revealing Han Yuan's face.

"What are you waiting for? Get in the car."

……

Du Yuzhang sat next to Han Yuan as if he had lost his soul. He didn't even notice that Han Yuan stuffed a teacup into his hand.It wasn't until the carriage bumped and the tea splashed on the back of his hand that he looked down in surprise.

"Why, lost your soul?"

Han Yuan squinted at him,

"Are you angry with His Majesty?"

"..."

"If you want to blame me for what happened at the market that day, I was the one who came up with the idea of ​​the shaman priest, and I even found the fake priest. If you can't get angry, just break up with me for a year and a half It's on—don't bother His Majesty anymore. It's boring."

"..."

"Yesterday, Your Majesty seemed to have lost his soul. Director Wang came to look for me overnight. I took a look, but His Majesty didn't see me. I thought he was going to be depressed for a few days, but His Majesty blocked me and Bai Jiaoran in the room early this morning. In front of the door, he said that he will go to the peace talks with Ximan today."

Han Yuan took a sip of hot tea,

"...I thought he wanted to find you."

"Yes, today is the final negotiation." Du Yuzhang said in a daze, "The Ximan side is also preparing. I haven't helped them sort out the paperwork in the past few days... I don't know how they are preparing."

"Du Yuzhang, do you really think of yourself as a barbarian?"

Han Yuan almost laughed angrily at him,

"Whether he has prepared enough for the western barbarian documents, what does it matter to you? Why don't you come to prepare for our Dayan?"

"... Dayan has Master Bai."

"What's wrong with Mr. Bai? Does Mr. Bai deserve to be exhausted? Du Yuzhang, do you have a conscience—he loved you very much back then, and worked with you until midnight every day. Why do you have the heart to let him suffer when he is in power?" Tired? Do you know that this time the copybooks are piled up as high as half a person, and people sitting behind the desk can't see them!"

Filled with righteous indignation, Han Yuan clattered on the table.The car bumped again, and the teapot lid came out suddenly.With quick eyes and quick hands, Han Yuan caught it again.

"sorry."

"Forget it, I don't care about you."

Han Yuan put the teapot lid back, and said with a half-smile,

"Anyway, it's not Bai Jiaoran who suffers."

"Ah? Not Master Bai? Then..."

"For you and His Majesty, I was injured and almost died outside Pinggu Pass."

Halfway through Han Yuan's words, he suddenly pulled off his collar, revealing half of his strong shoulders.A deep arrow scar was nailed to the collarbone, and the flesh was scarlet and hideous.

"See? You and His Majesty owe me half your life."

"..."

"Bai Jiaoran has been taking care of me since then. In the past ten days, he was not the one who worked tirelessly on the paperwork."

Du Yuzhang raised his eyes.With a sudden movement in his heart, he blurted out,

"Your Majesty?"

"Well, it's Your Majesty."

"..."

"So when will you come back to assist His Majesty?"

"...Master Bai is quick and thoughtful, and he is competent enough."

"Don't think about Bai Jiaoran again. I'm back, I can't bear him being so tired. Is this a fucking job done by a human? It took ten days to make a person thinner. Bai Jiaoran can't do it——I feel sorry for him."

Han Yuan poured himself another cup of tea, raised his head and drank it clean.It was obviously a light tea soup, but he drank it like a strong wine.

"...So, when will you come back, and feel sorry for your Majesty?"

"Your Majesty... is the Ninth Five-Year King. He has a lot of promises, and there are countless capable people around him. He occupies the position of the Son of Heaven. If he needs it, there are plenty of people to assist him. Mr. Han's words are too biased. Why is Your Majesty so isolated and helpless?" ? Makes me feel that you just want to force me to feel guilty."

"Ha, I forced you to feel guilty? Du Yuzhang, I haven't seen you for three years, I've made great progress, and I've learned to be unreasonable. This is a good word, and I have the shameless demeanor of my old Han."

Han Yuan smiled and shook his head, the teacup in his hand bumped into the one in Du Yuzhang's hand,

"Come on, drink one, respect the face of Lord Du."

"Master Han, don't make fun of me."

"I didn't make you happy. Master Du, you know in your heart that guilt and heartache are different, right?"

"..."

"What's more, even if you are really guilty, there is no reason why I can force you to make you feel uncomfortable. You should know better than me why you feel uncomfortable in your heart. In fact, your majesty can also ask others to write for you——No, To be precise, His Majesty should leave this kind of thing to others. The majestic Son of Heaven, there are so many civil servants and military officials in the court, do they all eat for nothing? Why do you say he has to do everything himself? It is to make you feel guilty , It makes you feel bad? But looking at you, when His Majesty went to look for you yesterday, he didn't tell you how hard he worked for the past ten days, so he worked hard for this border negotiation."

——There is more than no complaints.Li Guangning didn't mention these at all.Du Yuzhang recalled yesterday in a daze. It seemed that the only things Li Guangning kept talking about were "I like you, and you like me too" and "Follow me back".

"So you see, Du Yuzhang. Your Majesty did this only because some people valued these things very much—that person is too stupid, and he doesn't know how to like high-ranking officials, rich salary, good fields and beautiful houses. Instead, he only thinks about the stability of the border. Living and living in peace and contentment. Your Majesty has no choice but to please him. In the past ten days, what Your Majesty is thinking is that if the negotiation results are good, that person will be very happy, right? .”

When Han Yuan said this, his eyes were already fixed on Du Yuzhang's face unabashedly.He twirled the empty teacup between his fingers and said,

"So, when are you coming back? Do you know how fucking difficult it is for such a big country to have peace and stability for the people? Do you really plan to stand by and let your majesty down because of the problems you have encountered? Now you Still not talking, do you know that His Majesty's injury is still not healed, and he hasn't rested for a day after waking up? Old Du, it's almost done. I'm not talking about you—do you still want to marry Su Ru? Is the wife of the Young Mistress of the West Man a part?"

—Didn't His Majesty not see you yesterday?How do you even know this?

Du Yuzhang was in a trance, and didn't even notice that he had blurted out this sentence.It wasn't until there was a crisp sound that he realized that the teacup in Han Yuan's hand had fallen to the ground and shattered.

"..."

Han Yuan didn't smile either.He sat upright and slapped his hands on the desk hard.

"What did you say? I didn't hear clearly. Tell me again."

"Your Majesty went to see me yesterday... There was some misunderstanding."

What Han Yuan said just now made Du Yuzhang's heart heavy, tense and uncomfortable.He also only briefly explained the process of yesterday's quarrel and misunderstanding, and stopped talking.

Han Yuan pinched his chin and pondered for a moment, then took a deep breath.

"Your Majesty didn't beat you."

"..."

"You gave His Majesty a cuckold. But His Majesty didn't beat you up, let alone take you away by force..."

"Han Yuan, Young Master Su and I have no affair at all."

"Of course I know." Han Yuan interrupted him impatiently, "But does your majesty know? What kind of temper does your majesty have? You don't know yourself? How can he bear this? Let alone him, if the little bastard dares to give I... I'm sure I'll go up and give him... ahem. Anyway, something's not right."

Han Yuan suddenly remembered something,

"Is there something you didn't say, and you are hiding it from me? Yesterday, His Majesty was very wrong, plus what you said - tell me honestly, what's going on!"

"Actually, it's not a secret from you."

Du Yuzhang was even more depressed.He hangs his head, depressed like a mushroom,

"It's just that I'm afraid... I hurt His Majesty's heart."

"Your Majesty is very thoughtful. You have been here for so many years. It's really not easy for you to hurt His Majesty's heart. What's going on?"

Afterwards, he narrated the scene where he poured the milk tea pot over.After he finished speaking, he felt even more uncomfortable. When he raised his head, he found that Han Yuan looked at him with pity.

"Lord Du, I didn't realize before that your ability to stab people's hearts is so good. What can I say about you?"

"..."

"It's wrong for Your Majesty to lie to you, and it's even wrong to act arbitrarily, but he doesn't know that it's wrong for him to do that. He is the emperor, and thousands of people have always surrounded him. How can he suddenly become enlightened and perfect all at once?"

"I never asked him to be perfect..."

"I know. You are just angry, so the way you treat others is to treat others. But have you ever thought that you are different from His Majesty—he didn't know that would hurt others, so he hurt you; You know that this hurts people's heart, and it will hurt badly when you are sad, why do you still want to hurt him?"

"..."

"Du Yuzhang, you are not this kind of person. Why do you suddenly become so self-willed? It doesn't matter if you are self-willed, but you can't deliberately poke the scars in people's hearts. If you really can't forgive His Majesty, just break up with him. But You forgave him, but suddenly brought up the old things again, and made him think that you fell in love with Su Rucheng——Du Yuzhang, this thing is too dishonest."

Du Yuzhang pursed his lips again and again, and sighed faintly.

"Actually, I was just angry with His Majesty when I said that at the beginning. I wanted to make him feel uncomfortable when he was cheated, and then explain it to him on the spot. But I didn't expect a sudden change. The pot of milk tea... Su Rucheng suddenly appeared again... I... made a mistake, and now I am in this situation. Han Yuan, what do you think I should do?"

"What should I do? Go directly to His Majesty."

"But seeing His Majesty's expression today, it seems that he doesn't want to talk to me."

"Are you actually worried about this? Even if you just broke into His Majesty's carriage, so what? Your Majesty is willing to punish you, but chop off your head?"

Han Yuan hummed softly.But seeing Du Yuzhang's expression, he sighed again.

"That's all. Send the Buddha to the west. Who told the shaman's idea? It was my old Han."

As he spoke, he picked up a piece of broken porcelain from the ground and put it in the palm of his hand.Du Yuzhang looked at him inexplicably, and heard him ask in a low voice,

"By the way, Master Du—are you afraid of pain?"

"Kindly. What's wrong?"

"I'm afraid there's nothing I can do. Just bear with it."

Before he finished speaking, he had already grasped Du Yuzhang's palm, and stabbed the piece of broken porcelain into his flesh.

"what!"

Du Yuzhang let out a low cry.Han Yuan's "panicked" cry has already been heard beside his ears,

"Du Yuzhang! What's the matter with you? Are you okay—come here! General Xu, is there a doctor with the army? Come in and show him!"

Du Yuzhang opened his eyes wide in shock, and wanted to speak, but Han Yuan covered his mouth.

While yelling, Han Yuan smiled and made a "shh" gesture on his lips.

"...You can take it easy and think about it before you talk. I'm a bully."

"What? You..."

"It's all for you, Du Yuzhang. Don't cheat me later! I'm no better than you. You deceive the emperor for fun, and I deceive the emperor for death."

"..."

Du Yuzhang had nothing to say.There was no chance for him to say more.Because Han Yuan's voice just fell, the sound of rolling wheels in front had stopped.

The Grassland of Ximan, it's so green No. [-]

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

"Get out of the way!"

Li Guangning came from the front.His voice was low and seemed a little displeased.But his footsteps are fast.When the next sentence sounded, he was already outside Han Yuan's carriage.

"Open the door."

The moment the car curtain was lifted, Du Yuzhang knelt on the ground with Han Yuan pressing his shoulders.He subconsciously stretched out his hand to support the ground, and the broken porcelain in his palm pierced another half an inch. The pain made him shiver, and he moaned in his throat.

"Your Majesty? Why are you here?"

Han Yuan's acting skills are top-notch.His voice was full of surprise, as if he really didn't expect Li Guangning to appear.He got up in a panic, and dragged Du Yuzhang up from the ground again,

"Lord Du accidentally broke the cup just now, and the carriage bumped again. I was in a hurry to find a doctor when I saw blood...but I startled the Holy Driver, what a capital crime!"

After finishing speaking, he helped Du Yuzhang up from the ground.Seeing Du Yuzhang's eyebrows furrowed and his face so ugly, he secretly laughed in his heart—it really hasn't been seen for three years, and Lao Du has learned badly.He was so surprised just now, but in the end, he pretended to be more exaggerated than me?Why, I'm afraid His Majesty will not soften his heart?

But when he turned Du Yuzhang's palm over, he was completely taken aback.

Why is the wound so deep?Almost all the pieces of broken porcelain were pressed into the palm of the hand, and the blood flowed down the wrist.Looking at it like this, if it were a little deeper, it would pierce the entire palm of your hand!

"Lord Du!"

Han Yuan is really in a hurry now,

"Why are you injured so badly? It's really... General Xu! Has the doctor not been found yet?"

"Back to Mr. Han, there is no doctor in the team, and it is too far to go back to find it! The peace talks are in front of you, and the time is almost up...Your Majesty, why don't I send someone to send this Mr. Du back to heal his wounds, and the team will move on?"

Li Guangning glanced at Du Yuzhang, frowning, hesitant.Du Yuzhang has already spoken,

"No need. I'll go with you to the venue."

"But, your injury..."

"It's not a big deal, just bandage it up for now. If I'm not mistaken, I can find someone to heal me when I get there."

— Can you find someone to heal?

——There is a piece of grassland over there, and there is no human habitation for several miles around.Several large tents were temporarily set up, and the people from both sides lived inside, in order to clear up the surrounding environment, so that the secrets and interest exchanges between the two sides would not be spied on by outsiders.

——So if you go there, what kind of doctor can you find?There is no one in the Dayan team, so I can only find it from Ximan!

Li Guangning's eyes were dark and his jaw was tense.Without saying a word, he turned and left the carriage.

"His Majesty!"

When Du Yuzhang spoke suddenly, Li Guangning stopped.He didn't look back, just stood where he was.

"Can I ride in your carriage?"

"Bold! Who are you? You covet His Majesty's holy car..."

It was the eunuch who screamed and cursed again.Until Li Guangning opened his mouth,

"Liu Ang."

"Yes, the slave is here!"

"Go get some cushions and put them in the carriage. They should be thicker."

"The slave obeys the order!"

"Also, starting tomorrow, you don't want to follow me anymore."

"what?"

Liu Ang looked mournful, as if he couldn't think of anything, he took advantage of the old man Wang Li's illness these days, and worked hard to crawl to His Majesty's feet.He obviously spent every day trying his best to please His Majesty, but why did he end up being driven away in the end?

Han Yuan watched, with a smile on his lips, thinking to himself—such a blind eunuch touched His Majesty's scales twice a day.How dare you drive away the person who is the master's favorite, without looking at your own heads?

If His Majesty didn't feel distressed, he could have heard that Du Yuzhang was ill, and couldn't wait to send someone to take a look, and immediately got out of the car and came over in person?If His Majesty didn't care, Du Yuzhang opened his mouth and called out "Your Majesty", would His Majesty immediately stand still and listen to him?

With such eyesight and IQ, do you still want to succeed Wang Li?

But speaking of it, His Majesty's temper really improved a lot.If it was three years ago, this kind of thing would have been dragged down and beaten to death long ago!

……

Li Guangning walked in front, and Du Yuzhang followed behind him until they reached the door of the carriage.

He found that the carriage that Li Guangning was riding in today was different from the usual one.On weekdays, they are tall horses, tall and big, with a royal style.Today's car is much shorter, but the space inside is very spacious.

Huaihe lifted the curtain of the car for Li Guangning.Du Yuzhang found that there were no seats inside, but a soft fur mat spread from head to tail.There are a lot of cushions in the carriage, and there is a small desk.On the upper side of the censer, soothing incense was slowly burning, exuding a misty fragrance.

——Thinking about it, His Majesty has a severe headache.So I can't sit for a long time, so I specially prepared this kind of carriage that can lie down and rest.The tranquilizing incense probably has the same purpose.

Du Yuzhang waited for a moment.Li Guangning stood at the door, but did not move.

"His Majesty……"

Du Yuzhang's voice was a little weak.He thought, could it be that Li Guangning suddenly changed his mind and didn't want to ride with him?

Li Guangning looked around, and finally settled on Huaihe.he asked,

"You are usually injured, who will deal with it?"

"Return to Your Majesty. If you are injured on weekdays, a military doctor will deal with it. If it is too late in battle, you will deal with it yourself. We have medicine bags."

"Pharmaceutical? What's that?"

"It's a special package, tied around the waist. It's full of life-saving things. In military life, you never know when you will fight, so the medicine bag is like your own life. We never leave our bodies."

"Then did you bring the medicine bag today?"

"Uh……"

Huai He, who has always been steady, hesitated a bit.His medicine pouch is never out of his body. On the contrary, Qin Ling, who was trained by him, always finds it too heavy and throws it aside.

...That's why he threw his golden sore medicine to Qin Ling after the fight yesterday.It was because he was afraid that Qin Ling would have to go back and rummage through boxes and cabinets to find medicine if he was injured.He really doesn't have it now.

But looking at Du Yuzhang's palm, he also figured out the situation.He bowed his hands,

"Your Majesty is going to heal Mr. Du? Please don't worry, Your Majesty, take care of me."

Huaihe didn't bring a medicine bag, but he brought a whole team of brothers.Soon, he collected his things and took Du Yuzhang aside.

"Be patient."

Huaihe's words were gentle, but his strikes were decisive.Without blinking his eyes, he pulled out the porcelain piece, and quickly sprinkled the medicine powder on it.Du Yuzhang shuddered in pain, and immediately covered his mouth with his hands, but did not cry out.

"If it hurts, it's okay to call out."

Huaihe comforted in a low voice,

"You are not a soldier, no one here will laugh at you."

Du Yuzhang shook his head.

He was in pain, but he didn't want Li Guangning to hear it.

Just looking at the tranquilizing incense just now, he guessed that Li Guangning was suffering from both worries and headaches.We will go to the venue for peace talks soon, and this will be another tough battle.At this time, why bother him?

"All right."

Huaihe carefully bandaged Du Yuzhang's palm.After Du Yuzhang thanked him, he was about to leave, but Huaihe grabbed his wrist.

"Mr. Du." He pressed Du Yuzhang's cuff with his fingers, and his voice was as steady as his fingers, "I didn't go yesterday, and I don't know what happened. It's just that your majesty..."

He paused for a moment, raised his head, and looked into Du Yuzhang's eyes.

"Your Majesty has really suffered a lot in the past few years. If possible, Mr. Du, can you treat him better?"

"..."

Du Yuzhang lowered his eyes, pulled his wrist out of his palm,

"I will."

……

Soon, Du Yuzhang came to Li Guangning's carriage.Li Guangning still stood where he was, without moving.

Hearing footsteps behind him, he got into the carriage.Du Yuzhang didn't wait for him to call this time, let alone asked "Can I get in the car, Your Majesty", and followed directly.

When Du Yuzhang looked up, he seemed to meet Li Guangning's gaze.But at this moment, the curtain behind the car was pulled up, blocking most of the light in the car, and the car suddenly went dark.

Du Yuzhang blinked before he could see his surroundings again.But Li Guangning had already turned his head away.

Emperor Dayan lay crookedly on the mat, resting his chin with one hand.He stared at the corner of the car with a pair of eagle eyes, as if he suddenly became very interested in the empty dark place.

Du Yuzhang sat down at his feet.He hugged his knees and looked at Li Guangning's face.

For almost a stick of incense, Li Guangning did not move.Du Yuzhang just looked at him like that, quietly.

Finally, Li Guangning moved - he closed his eyes.Then she pulled a thin blanket beside her and began to pretend to be asleep.

"..."

For some reason, Du Yuzhang's heart softened suddenly, and he wanted to laugh.

—This is his lord, his sire, his man.

Noble as the Ninth Five-Year Master, yet he showed such a childish side in front of him.It was as if that elder brother of the crown prince in the Eastern Palace, who acted arbitrarily but with a youthful spirit, reappeared in front of him after more than ten years.

Du Yuzhang moved closer, staring at Li Guangning's face.After all, he was haggard, his eyes were blue and his lips were a little chapped.Du Yuzhang was still smiling, but couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

Unexpectedly, Li Guangning was covered with a blanket, so he could hear such a soft voice.He asked in a rough voice,

"What sigh?"

"Your Majesty, I have not."

"How dare you deny it?! I clearly heard..."

Li Guangning's voice was very irritated.He threw back the blanket and popped his head out—then, the words in his mouth were cut off in mid-air, and he couldn't speak anymore.

He saw the faint smile on Du Yuzhang's face, and the peach blossom eyes were curved with a smile, full of tenderness and nostalgia.

The man looked at him with joy in his eyes.The kind of joy that flowed out, could not be restrained, and came from the bottom of my heart.

——Just like on a certain day of a certain year, when the young man in white under the peach blossom tree looked back, his face was red with peach blossoms.At that time, Du Yuzhang's smile was also so joyful, with an untainted smile.

Li Guangning's heart suddenly felt sour.He pursed his lips and turned his head away fiercely.

But he couldn't help it, and secretly looked at Du Yuzhang from the corner of his eye.Du Yuzhang still looked at him quietly.The smile in the corner of his eyes faded a bit, but the love in his eyes could not be mistaken no matter what.

he whispered,

"……His Majesty."

Li Guangning looked away, but did not respond.From Du Yuzhang's side came the rustling of clothes.He straightened up, took a few steps on his knees, and arrived in front of Li Guangning.

Their eyes met, and they quickly parted.Li Guangning frowned tightly, and turned his head away from looking at him.

But the distance between the two of them was so close that their breaths intertwined, and Li Guangning could see Du Yuzhang's eyelashes trembling when he lowered his eyes slightly.

unavoidable.

"His Majesty."

Du Yuzhang called out again, very softly.He lowered his head, covered the back of Li Guangning's hand with both hands, and held the man's well-articulated hand in his palm.

"What happened yesterday..."

Du Yuzhang had only spoken half a sentence when the carriage suddenly bumped.Du Yuzhang swayed and bumped directly into Li Guangning's shoulder.Li Guangning stretched out his hand subconsciously——by the time the two of them reacted, Du Yuzhang had already thrown himself into Li Guangning's arms.

The Grassland of Ximan, it is so green No. [-]

Du Yuzhang was lying in Li Guangning's arms, and Li Guangning's back was against the wall of the carriage.Just now Li Guangning put his arms around his waist, but when the car stopped, his arms slowly loosened.

Du Yuzhang didn't say anything, just pressed the arm with his backhand, letting it wrap around his waist tightly.

"!"

Li Guangning was obviously a little annoyed.He struggled hard, but couldn't break free.When he was about to make money again, Du Yuzhang said quietly,

"Your Majesty, the subject's palm is injured and I can't use any strength. If Your Majesty pushes harder, I will really be unable to hold Your Majesty."

"..."

"So if your majesty really doesn't want to touch me, you can tell me. If you get up by yourself, your majesty can save some effort."

Li Guangning froze all of a sudden.But the expression on his face became more and more annoyed, and he roared in a low voice,

"Du Yuzhang, are you threatening me?"

"I dare not threaten Your Majesty."

"One mouthful and one minister, who are you telling it to?"

"I will always be your majesty's subjects, the people of Dayan."

"My subject, my subject! Very good! Du Yuzhang, do you think I'm living too comfortably, and came here early in the morning to make me mad? Get out of the way!"

"Your Majesty! I didn't come here early in the morning to make His Majesty angry."

"Then what are you here for? Huh?"

"I have come here specially to apologize to His Majesty."

"..."

"Your Majesty, what happened yesterday... is my fault. I have come to apologize to Your Majesty."

"..."

Li Guangning stared at Du Yuzhang, obviously frowning.For a moment, he whispered,

"and then?"

"I have another unfeeling request, I hope His Majesty can fulfill it."

Li Guangning's expression changed.His lips moved, as if he wanted to say something.But at this moment, there were bursts of conversation outside.

"Your Majesty hasn't gotten out of the car yet?"

"There is no movement yet. I'm afraid it was too tired the past few days and fell asleep in the car. We don't dare to call forcibly..."

"If that's the case, that's fine. That precious sedative incense has played some role. If that's the case, don't disturb Your Majesty, let His Majesty rest for a while."

"But the Westman has arrived and is going to the tent... Wouldn't it be bad to keep them waiting too long?"

"What do you care about them? Tell them to wait! A group of barbarians, can they be compared with my Huanghuang Yan?"

Li Guangning pushed Du Yuzhang away
