"Actually, only when people are alive can they have the opportunity to do what they want to do!"
Could it be that he had wrongly blamed him? Could it be that he was just temporarily forbearing? After Prince Li Heng left, the young man thought about this sentence repeatedly.
No, this cannot be the reason for him to abandon himself, this cannot be the reason for him to sacrifice himself!
Of course he hopes to leave Chang'an as soon as possible. He has wanted to leave Chang'an ever since he knew that Yang Zhao was going to kill him! But this does not mean that he will reach some kind of agreement with Li Heng. Could it be that he will only be in the hands of the superior?
The chess pieces should be discarded after use?
He is not willing to accept that his destiny is always controlled by those in power!
Li Linfu fell, and Yang Zhao became the second Li Linfu. Even the weakest prince Li Heng wanted to squeeze out his remaining value.
What can he rely on?
Your Majesty the Emperor?
Ever since the rumors about his affair with the imperial concubine spread, he clearly felt the emperor's hostility. Isn't it the best explanation that the imperial concubine was sent home? Although in the end, his majesty took the imperial concubine back to the palace.
, but this only means that he forgives and believes in the imperial concubine, it does not mean that he also believes in himself!
Thinking of this, Li Kuo suddenly felt sweat breaking out on his forehead and his back became cold. It seemed that from now on, he could not make any more mistakes. Ordinary mistakes would probably escalate and become unforgivable in the eyes of His Majesty the Emperor.
Guilty!
"Qi Lang, Xiao Qi, damn Qi Baozi!~~~" Du Jingtian called Li Kuo several times but did not wake up the boy, and he was immediately furious.
"Hey, hey." Li Kuo broke away from his deep thoughts and smiled apologetically at Du Jingtian. Today, he was supposed to accompany the two girls to enjoy the lanterns, but instead he met the prince. The prince's appearance completely aroused his interest.
Fear brought him back to reality. The current situation is even more dangerous for him, and he may fall into an abyss if he is not careful.
"A Tian, you and Liniang should go back home first. I want to go alone." Not wanting to let his emotions affect the two of them, Li Kuo had no choice but to make this choice.
"Hey, why are you like this? You just chatted with that weird man for so long, and then you were in a daze for no reason for so long. Today is the first day of the Yuan Dynasty. Liniang and I finally came out at night.
Come on, why are you so boring? Who is that man? What is your relationship with him? Why do you feel so afraid of him?"
Li Kuo only said one sentence and then mentioned a lot of things about Miss Du, which made her dumbfounded.
"Sister Jingtian, the master must have his difficulties, let's go back to the house first."
Shen Liniang was considerate and moved to persuade Du Jingtian.
"He obviously promised us, but why did he go back on his word? I haven't gone shopping enough. I heard that there is a more beautiful lighthouse on North Street and there are all kinds of snacks. I don't want to go home, I want you to come back!" Du
The eldest lady was not easy to dismiss, so she stubbornly refused to go too far.
"A Tian, listen to me." Li Kuo walked up to Du Jingtian and said, "You go back home first, and I will bring you your favorite mask when I get back."
"Really?" Miss Du immediately beamed when she heard this.
"Once a word is spoken, it's hard for a horse to chase it!" Li Kuo nodded slightly in approval.
"Okay, let's go back home first!" After saying that, Du Jingtian took Shen Liniang's arm and ran south.
This child!
Li Kuo shook his head and smiled bitterly, watching the two girls disappear into the long night.
He finally had time for himself to walk around. Speaking of which, when he returned to Chang'an City, he had been planning with Yang Zhao to bring down Li Linfu, and he couldn't spare any time.
Give yourself a holiday?
In the second half of the night during the Lantern Festival, it became noticeably quieter.
The evening breeze blows across the cheeks, carrying the unique cold flavor of winter and penetrating into the skin without any irritation.
Walking alone on Zhuque Street, Li Kuo let the lanterns cast light beside him and thought carefully about the past six months. Scenes of scenes flashed into the young man's mind one after another, including Gao Xiuyan, Li Linfu, Yang Zhao, Li Heng,
There are also all kinds of invisible characters, you sing and I appear on the stage, it will be wonderful.
And he seems to be a chess piece, a thread that connects them.
Gradually, the fruit wine he drank from the stall spread on his face, and the young man felt his forehead was slightly dizzy and his eyesight became a little hazy.
If you don't want to be a chess piece, you have to make yourself stronger! Maybe this is why so many people are rushing to climb up!
The young man looked up and saw a stall selling masks.
He really touched it!
Li Kuo smiled bitterly and walked forward to choose a mask for Du Jingtian.
The advantage of the Lantern Festival is that it provides everyone with an opportunity to release their true selves. Why do so many people buy masks?
Are you afraid that others will see you, your fragile heart hidden under your strong appearance?
"Store, how do you sell this Monkey King mask?" Li Kuo picked up a red peach wood monkey mask and asked the store in a friendly voice.
"Your Majesty, you really have a good eye. This mask is the most popular in my shop. I bought a total of fifty, and sold forty-nine tonight. To be honest, you are holding the mask in your hand."
This one is the last and only one!"
The mask seller was a lean man. Seeing that Li Kuo wanted to buy this mask, he began to praise the benefits of his own mask. It seemed that during the Lantern Festival, if you don't buy his mask, you will regret it for the rest of your life.
"Seller, how much does this mask cost?" Li Kuo shook his head and asked again.
"Ah, your guest is so cheerful. I originally planned to ask you for fifty cents, but seeing how cheerful you are, I'll sell you forty cents." The lean man smiled and waved his hand to Li Kuo, as if a young man had taken advantage of him.
How cheap he is.
"Boss, Fifty Wen, I want this mask!"
A soft voice sounded from behind the young man. Before Li Kuo could react, the mask was taken away by the man.
"This mask is mine!" When the boy turned around, the mask was already on the man's face.
When he made such a fuss, even the store owner was in trouble. After all, it was Li Kuo who first fell in love with the Monkey King mask. If the man later snatched it away, would he be drowned by the spit of the customers around him? There was really no need for him to pay attention to Shi Wen.
It's not like money is tied up in one's reputation.
"Sir, I was the first to like this mask. Please return it to me."
Li Kuo stretched out his hand towards the other party with a smile on his face.
