Half blood

Chapter 38

Li Xuan found out later that he didn't return all night last night, and Li Xiuqi led people to look for him everywhere.At first, I was worried that he might get lost in the woods, so I took people into the mountains to look for him. Later, I was afraid that he might have slipped and fell into the river, so I took people to fish in the river, so I tossed around all night.Finally, when it was dawn, Li Xiuqi took people directly to the Ren Medicine Shop.Li Xuan knew in his heart what Li Xiuqi was thinking. Li Xiuqi must have guessed in his heart that he would not listen to persuasion to find Li Xuelin. , looking everywhere.

Standing in front of Li Xiuqi's room, Li Xuan hesitated, walking back and forth, not knowing whether to knock on the door, let alone what he would say after the door opened.People were tired from walking around like this, so Li Xuan simply sat on the steps in front of Li Xiuqi's room, propped his head with his hands, and quietly looked at the hoar frost that the moon sprinkled in the front hall.He thought to himself, Li Xiuqi must be angry with him, angry at him for being stubborn, angry at him for ruining a big deal.

Autumn had already begun, and the sky was gradually getting cooler. A gust of evening wind blew over, making Li Xuan's eyelids close.In a daze, Li Xuan seemed to hear the sound of footsteps. He squinted one eye and saw a man in black coming to him. He took off the cloak on his shoulders and gently covered the on him.

Li Xuan lowered his head, touched the finely embroidered pattern on the black official uniform, and smiled softly. It turned out that no matter how angry Li Xiuqi was with him, he would never be willing to let him freeze, as long as he could, Then there is help.

"Why did you come back so late?" Li Xuan rubbed his eyes and asked softly.

"I have something to do, I'm late. Why don't you sit inside? How long have you been sitting outside?" Li Xiuqi asked, while reaching out to test the temperature on the back of Li Xuan's hand.

For the first time, Li Xuan felt that youthful blood also has its disadvantages. He waited outside for more than an hour, but his hands were still as hot as a stove.If his hands were cold now, Li Xiuqi would have wrapped his hands in his own without saying a word...

"I didn't know you were not in the room, I was afraid you were still angry with me." Li Xuan replied.

Li Xiuqi didn't laugh when he heard this, and said, "I'm not angry with Your Highness, I'm just a little worried."

"Really?" Li Xuan frowned, and said, "Although your emotions are never written on your face, I know that you are very angry now." Li Xuan paused, and looked at it carefully. With Li Xiuqi's bright black eyes, he lowered his head and said, "Sometimes, I wish you could lose your temper with me, so that at least you can talk about it, and you, you won't be angry with me. "

Li Xiuqi looked sideways at Li Xuan, and said: "Your Highness is really worrying too much. I'm not angry, not at all, just a little scared." Li Xiuqi turned his head to look at the white moonlight in the courtyard, and said, "Your Highness, you It's a blessing to be able to come back alive today. Li Xuelin didn't attack you now, but because his strength is not enough. For so many years, he has been hiding his strength and biding his time, and it won't take long for him to be able to turn the world upside down."

Li Xuan nodded, and said: "I know, and he has a very good reason. He is famous as a teacher, and there will not necessarily be fewer heroes than me on his side. After all," Li Xuan's eyes Feeling a little lonely, he said lightly: "After all, he is of pure Yujin blood, unlike me."

After hearing this, Li Xiuqi turned around, looked at Li Xuan seriously, and said, "Your Highness, you must not think so. You know, my only wish is to assist you to become the Great Emperor of Yujin Kingdom."

"Is this your only wish? I thought it could be something else..." Li Xuan said, "Why? Why are you so optimistic about me? I didn't like reading when I was young, and I got into trouble everywhere, and today I even got into trouble. A catastrophe. I have always felt that if my father had a son, he would definitely not care about me. It’s not pure or not, it’s just about aptitude, and my aptitude is not good.”

Li Xiuqi said: "Your qualifications are very good. You have a rare qualification. It is not benevolence and benevolence, but humility. People with higher status are less likely to listen to other people's words, but you are different. Remember what I taught you before Do you want to study? At that time, I realized that no matter what it is, you can learn it as soon as you learn it, and correct it when you know it. The taboo is being too arrogant."

Li Xuan smiled and said: "Then you are really wrong. I can't listen to other people's words. My father said that I have a stone head and I don't like oil and salt. Maybe, maybe I just like to listen to you."

Li Xiuqi quickly said: "Then, can you listen to me again, Your Highness? You don't need to worry about Li Xuelin's matter, let alone chase after him. Let me handle it."

Li Xuan nodded, and said: "Okay, I'll listen to you this time, anyway, he ran away, and he won't be able to catch him for a while." Then Li Xuan continued: "Actually, I have a plan. The night in the inn I wrote to Li Fei on the [-]st, saying that two batches of grain and grass will be shipped three days later. One batch is real grain and grass, which will be shipped to the camp to relieve the villagers affected by the plague, and the other batch of grain and grass will not be shipped. Because I asked Li Fei to exchange this batch of grain and grass for silver, step by step, no matter which level moved the silver along the way, the spies would record it, and then they would be dismissed from office."

Li Xiuqi nodded after hearing this, and said: "Although this method is feasible, there are still a few problems. First of all, are you sure that the spy will not be bribed? And will those experienced corrupt officials find that this silver is a bait?" Woolen cloth?"

Li Xuan shook his head, and said: "The internal detective was assigned to Li Fei by my father, so it is impossible to betray him. And I handed this letter to the inn clerk with my own hands, and watched him post it, so the news is impossible. Give way."

Li Xiuqi nodded, and said: "Your Highness is really thoughtful." Li Xiuqi paused slightly, and then said: "Now the people suffering from the plague have been cured. In a few days, the grain and grass delivered by the capital will arrive. You can go back to Beijing with you." Bar."

After hearing this, Li Xuan looked up at Li Xiuqi seriously, and asked, "What about you? Are you really not going back to the capital?"

Li Xiuqi lowered his head at a loss, and said: "I don't know now, I came to the south this time to find an answer, but now..." Li Xiuqi said, laughing at himself, "It seems that I don't want to know anymore? "

Li Xuan didn't know what Li Xiuqi was looking for in the south, but judging from his lonely expression, it shouldn't be a good thing.Li Xuan wanted to comfort Li Xiuqi, but for a moment he didn't know how to speak, fearing that he would say the wrong thing and make Li Xiuqi even more sad, Li Xuan thought for a while, then said: "If you don't want to know, just go back with me. Wait. As soon as the food from the capital arrives, I can get information about Bai Yuan’s corruption from Li Fei’s spies, and when I deal with him and return to the capital, I can claim credit from my father.”

Li Xiuqi smiled and said: "Your Highness thinks very well, but now you should be crowned king when you go back."

Li Xuan scratched his hair, and said: "Yeah, it's too old to be a weak crown..." Li Xuan thought of what Li Fei said that his father had arranged for him a row of beauties to force him to marry, Li Xuan couldn't help but have a headache , I wondered how to deal with this matter when I went back.His father is only a son like him, no matter what he says, it is impossible for him not to marry for life and to keep his body like a jade for Li Xiuqi.

Li Xiuqi seemed to know what Li Xuan was thinking, so he looked away calmly and said, "It's getting late, Your Highness, you should go back and rest first."

Li Xuan had no choice but to get up from the steps in front of Li Xiuqi's house, walked to his own room opposite, and returned to his own room, Li Xuan opened the window and looked at the opposite side secretly, seeing that there was no wax in the opposite room, thinking about Li Xiuqi's guess Already asleep.He also lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

On the second day, Wei Yuan came to Li Xuan and told him that the food and grass from the capital had arrived.Li Xuanxin thought that it came even faster than he thought, it seems that this time Li Fei did things quite reliably, and then received Li Fei's letter from Wei Yuan, and read it at a glance.

This letter is quite long, and it is full of three pages. In it, Brother Wei appeared 28 times in total, and Brother Qi appeared three times in total, but he was never mentioned from the beginning to the end.Li Xuan couldn't help but get angry, thinking that after all, he is also Li Fei's own younger brother, her own younger brother was beheaded, and this older sister just ignored him and asked about Big Brother Wei's personal affairs!

But in spite of himself, Li Fei had done him such a great favor, so he had to repay him, so Li Xuan found a free time, began to tease Wei Yuan, and began to probe.

Just as Wei Yuan helped unload the grain and grass, he saw Li Xuan walking over with an unfathomable face, sat down beside him, smiled obsequiously, and asked, "Brother Wei, speaking of which, you are also twenty-five this year. Alright."

Wei Yuan was a little puzzled, so he nodded and said, "Yeah, what's the matter?"

Li Xuan then said: "Brother Wei, it's time for you to marry a wife and have children at your age. Look at Brother Hu, the children are so old, don't you think about it?"

Wei Yuan understood now, so he laughed and said, "Why, you want to match me. But the women you know should all be ladies from famous families, how can I be worthy of a big bastard?"

Li Xuan then said: "Whether you are worthy or not is up to me, and you have the final say, of course it is up to the girl!" Li Xuan shouted in his heart: "Brother Wei, you are worthy of it!" In fact, you and Li Fei are matched by a flower stuck in cow dung. Of course, Brother Wei, you are the delicate flower! Li Fei, this little devil, hurry up and marry him. After so many years, he will finally be married. It can be poured like a basin of water."

Wei Yuan laughed again when he heard this, and said, "That's quite a pleasant statement."

Li Xuan asked again: "What type of girl does Brother Wei like? Gentle or domineering? Pretty face, or super good figure?" He picked a few words that he could say out of his vocabulary, and then stopped.

Wei Yuan didn't even think about it, and said, "It doesn't matter if you're pretty or not." Li Xuan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he thought, Li Fei, you have hope. "Closing eyes is good." Li Xuan's heart sank again when he heard this. The difficulty of closing eyes is even higher. Even if you are so beautiful that you are so beautiful that you are ashamed, you can be killed if you don't fit your eyes. Why don't you just ask for it? It's beautiful.

Wei Yuan went on to say: "It doesn't matter if you are gentle or not." Li Xuan's eyes lit up again, sister, you have something to play. "Just don't be too savage." Li Xuan couldn't help shouting to the sky, savage, the word savage was tailor-made for Li Fei, there should be no girl in this world who is more savage than Li Fei.

Li Xuan's heart was ashamed, and he felt that even if Wei Yuan was blind, he would never fall in love with Li Fei in this life, so he sighed and asked, "Then what do you think of my sister?"

Wei Yuan's jaw dropped when he heard that, "You, your sister? Princess?"

Li Xuan nodded, Wei Yuan's dark face suddenly became darker, but Li Xuan felt that it was not a black face, but a red face, and Wei Yuan's two red ears confirmed Li Xuan's conjecture, Wei Yuan Yuan stammered and said: "Your Highness, what are you talking about, Your Highness? Eldest Princess, Eldest Princess is so beautiful, gentle and virtuous, everyone is so demeanor, how can you be with me?" After finishing speaking, she turned around and walked away. , Pretending to count the haystacks that had been counted countless times.

Li Xuan was taken aback for a moment, feeling that the development of the matter was too unexpected, so he asked in surprise: "Do you think Li Fei is beautiful?"

Wei Yuan remained silent, nodded his head after a while, and said, "Well, pretty, pretty... But I just regard her as my younger sister, just like you."

Li Xuan couldn't help frowning, and shouted: "Sister, have you always regarded me as your sister for so many years?"

"No, no," Wei Yuan quickly waved his hands, and said, "I regard you as my younger brother and the Eldest Princess as my younger sister."

Li Xuan exclaimed: "My God..." He could no longer understand this world, let alone heterosexual love.

Li Xuan went back to his room with extremely complicated emotions, and wrote a letter to Li Fei. There were only two words in the letter: "There is drama".
