021 Three Gifts
Although Long Yu was born and grew up in a peaceful era, he only had a vague concept of war through historical data. But he also knew that it was not a trivial matter. Perhaps the wars in the cold weapon era would not have such a broad impact.
, but it is also the life and death of thousands of people.
And he is still involved. If a war breaks out, if Dongjin is defeated, then how will he survive? Although Long Yu has no nostalgia for the glory and wealth of the Dongjin royal family, he knows very well that he is now relying on the big tree.
It’s good to enjoy the cool. If Dongjin is not protected, will there be any intact eggs under the cover of the nest?
After Long Yu got on the horse, Mo Li also got on the horse. The guards brought by Long Yu had already divided into several groups and went off quickly.
After all, Mo Li's status in the princess mansion is different. Those guards are all discerning people. These days, Long Yu treats Mo Li even more differently, so the attitude of the servants becomes more respectful.
"Princess." Mo Li held the reins and said seriously: "I'm afraid that even if those guards find Jiu Fangxia, they won't be able to bring him back. This time, if the princess really wants to resolve the issue, she will have to go in person.
Already."
"I'm afraid that it will be useless if I catch up with Jiu Fangxia in person." Long Yu said: "Look at the scar on his face, you will know how much he hates me."
Mo Li lowered his eyes: "He has some special feelings for the princess after all. Moreover, his promise back then was only to be loyal to the princess alone. Even if the palace guards catch up with him and can take him back by force, but
I think there must have been instructions sent to Linluo."
"Does Jiufang Xia have such great authority in Linluo?" Long Yu couldn't help but said: "He can direct Linluo's actions with just one letter? What you said is that he is just a prince who is used as a hostage. The third prince
, even if everything goes smoothly, it is impossible to inherit the throne."
"Because Linluo itself is a very warlike nation." Mo Li said: "As for Jiufang Xia, if he had not voluntarily come to Dongjin as a hostage, then the throne might be his. Although it is not right for the eldest son to inherit the throne.
It is a written rule that the stronger prevails, which is another rule.”
That thin man who could be blown away by a gust of wind, and whose eyes and brows were charming when he smiled, could actually become the strong man that Mo Li said?
Long Yu didn't believe it, but he didn't dare not believe it. Mo Li was not someone who exaggerated or talked nonsense, and she believed that he wouldn't be even the slightest bit truthful about such things. He said Jiufang Xia was so powerful, and he
It should be that powerful. People should not be judged by their appearance. This is also a universal truth in this world.
After thinking for a while, Long Yu said: "But you just said that Dongjin has four gates. Even if I want to pursue it, which way should I take?"
"Linluo is in the east, let's go east." Mo Li said: "Although Jiu Fangxia left Dongjin quickly, I don't think he walked too fast on the road. He spent a lot of time healing the princess just now.
If you don’t have enough internal energy, you may find a place outside the city to rest for a while.”
"That's right." Long Yu grabbed Mo Li's hand and said, "Did you use up a lot of internal energy to heal my wounds just now? Can your body bear it if we leave like this?"
"It doesn't matter." Mo Li took his hand away without leaving a trace: "My internal strength is not incompatible with the princess's internal strength, so there is no damage."
"Oh." Long Yu retracted his hand and kicked the horse's belly with his heel: "Then let's go."
It seems that after receiving the gem pendant from Lin Yunshen, the wheel of fate began to move. He began to meet assassins and began to expel Mo Li and Jiu Fangxia. However, by expelling Jiu Fangxia, he unintentionally attracted a bigger...
Trouble.
Thinking of the man with an invisible smile, Long Yu said: "Mo Li, send someone for me to investigate Lin Yunshen. I think there is something wrong with that man..."
The theory of destiny began to kick in. Although Long Yu had already experienced such strange things as time travel, he still firmly believed that there are no ghosts and gods in this world. If the beginning of this series of events was the wave of assassins, where did this assassin come from?
Yes, even the Sacrifice Mansion cannot escape suspicion.
Mo Li responded and summoned the guards to give orders. The guards under Long Yu were also divided into different professions and had different functions. Looking at Long Yu's appearance, it was unclear now, so he could only do the work for him.
Not only was he told to investigate Lin Yunshen, but he was also told to report a message to Danshu at the Princess Mansion. Long Yu led a large group of people to the east gate.
There were more than just a few guards brought out by Long Yu in the Princess Mansion, but after all, this matter couldn't be made public, so Mo Li just selected a dozen skilled elites to accompany them.
Although Jiu Fangxia and Mo Li only played the role of male favorites in the princess's palace, their identities were far more than that. Because as soon as they were kicked out here, someone immediately informed the queen over there.
So when Long Yu arrived at the east city gate with a dozen guards and Mo Li, there were already female officials from the palace waiting at the city gate.
Watching Long Yu approaching from a distance, the female official stood at the city gate and shouted: "Princess, please stop."
Although Long Yu has never been to ancient times, he still knows the rules of ancient times. Looking at the posture of the female official, it seems that this is someone sent by the queen. If not, it is also sent by his own sister. Otherwise, he will be inferior to this person.
With a status above ten thousand people, in Dongjin Imperial City, who else can talk to me like this.
Long Yu had no choice but to stop, and everyone dismounted. The female officer saluted and said, "I would like to pay my respects to Princess Funing. Congratulations on her recovery."
This should be his title, Long Yu thought in his heart, and said: "Thank you for your concern, no need to be too polite."
The female officer smiled and said: "I came here to convey the emperor's oral instructions. The emperor has two words for me to tell the princess."
Long Yu looked at the female official quietly. She didn't think the world was too simple. It was normal for her to have the Queen's spy in her house or around her. She should be the one to bring the two of them here.
Drive him out, and the emperor over there will know about it. I just don't know what he wants to say to me when he comes over to take pictures of the officials so neatly.
The female official said: "The first sentence, the emperor said that Mo Li has been by the princess's side for many years and has fulfilled his duties faithfully. Although he is from a humble background, he is young and promising and is quite popular with the princess. He is specially allowed to be admitted to the palace as a husband's attendant so that he can serve the princess."
Serving one's husband... What is this concept? Long Yu was a little confused. This was definitely not what the husband meant. His husband should be the consort. Moreover, he didn't mind Mo Li's identity here, but the emperor definitely
I won't be willing to do so. Is that equivalent to being a concubine... or a concubine...
Unexpectedly, the emperor's first words were to change Mo Li's identity. Long Yu was stunned and before he could react, Mo Li knelt down and said, "I accept the decree and thank you for your kindness."
The female official remained expressionless as she continued: "The second sentence of the Emperor is that the country and the people of Dongjin are now in peace and harmony, and the people's lives are harmonious, and they do not want to provoke a war. If the princess also has this intention, no matter what she has planned, just go ahead and do it. The Emperor will definitely support her fully.
.Please also put your phoenix body first, princess, and be extremely careful in everything you do."
Long Yu nodded, got on his horse and said, "Go back and tell the emperor, I understand."
She didn't understand why the emperor came so suddenly, but out of the corner of her eye, she saw Mo Li's face, which seemed not to be good.
I thought so, Mo Li was a man after all, and being married in such a public way, even if he was married to a matchmaker, would make anyone feel bad.
After the female officer finished speaking, she sent Long Yu and his entourage out of the city without much delay.
After leaving the city, Long Yu asked the guards to clear the way. He slowed down a little, pulled Mo Li, and said: "Mo Li, are you unhappy? That husband's servant... does he mean to take a concubine?
"
"It's not concubinage." Mo Li said: "Concubines are not protected by law and can be bought and sold at will. The status of a husband's servant is equivalent to that of a concubine in the princess's house, not to mention the fact that it was personally promised by the emperor... This status does not count.
It’s low.”
Mo Li smiled, and there was a hint of bitterness in that smile, which made Long Yu feel even sadder.
He said apologetically: "Mo Li, is this identity embarrassing for you? I didn't expect that the emperor would suddenly have such an idea."
"The princess is too worried." Mo Li said calmly: "From a man's favorite to a man's concubine, why is it embarrassing to just talk about it."
Although Mo Li's words were true, they were harsh in Long Yu's ears. But although they were harsh, he couldn't refute them. He twitched his lips in embarrassment, not knowing what to say in reply.
Maybe Long Yu had never shown such a weak expression in front of Mo Li before. Seeing her helpless look with her head lowered, Mo Li couldn't bear it. He hesitated and said, "I didn't think much about it. It's just that Your Majesty."
This order came so suddenly, I felt a little surprised."
Long Yu frowned and said: "I think it may be that after the emperor came last time, he felt that I was attracted to you, so he gave this order. A mother, even if she can pamper her children, always wants to
They can have a mutually agreeable person and get real feelings."
Mo Li smiled again, perhaps feeling a little unbelievable about the kind of feelings Long Yu said: "Although the emperor is iron-fisted, he loves the princess very much."
For a royal family who is arrogant, domineering, and dissolute, even if he knows that she is different from usual, it is still a strange feeling to hear such emotional words coming from her mouth.
Long Yu felt that this topic was not suitable to continue talking about, so he stopped consciously. He galloped on the horse. He didn't know if it was because of the martial arts in this body. Although she couldn't use it yet, it was her first time riding a horse.
Apart from the strange and stiff posture of the man on horseback, he was also rising and falling without any sign of falling off.
After running all the way, the news they got was either good or bad. The good news was that there was no news from the other three groups of people. In other words, the possibility of Jiufang Xia leaving from those three directions was very small. The bad news was that
, but they didn't stop at all along the way, and they didn't catch up with Jiufang Xia.
At dusk, everyone stopped in a small town. Even if Long Jin went out in casual clothes, he would naturally have a group of subordinates to take care of him. The food and drink in the room were all the best under possible conditions, so she didn't have to worry about it at all.
.
This is a small town close to the outer city of Dongjin. This is the first time for Long Yu to go out in this era. Everything feels new, including the quaint inns and restaurants, the door lintels hanging with red lanterns, the common people, and the fact that she has not eaten.
Past dishes.
Not to mention that after a long day of physical activity, Long Yu was really tired. When the food was served, he started to eat it. Mo Li was still standing beside her at first, but he was forced to sit down. The guards also came a few times.
Although Long Yu could sometimes enjoy the vanity brought by the pomp and circumstance, he was not used to it after all.
After eating, Mo Li called the boss over as usual and said, "Boss, did you see a tall, thin young man with scars on his face today?"
If you run an inn, you've seen a lot of different things, and you can roughly know who you are at a glance. At this moment, I saw that although Long Yu didn't have any airs, the subordinates around her were not good people, and I knew in my heart that this person was something I couldn't afford to offend.
, don’t dare to be negligent in the slightest.
The boss frowned, thought about it carefully, and asked the waiters to think about it carefully, and then said: "Sir, no one with scars on their face has come to the shop today. But you said
