Chapter 163: Why do you think this man is so familiar?
The splendid dragon car has been parked somewhere waiting for a long time. The bright yellow car curtain is embroidered with gold threads with a golden dragon flying in the clouds and riding in the mist. When I look closer, I find that this simple embroidery of the golden dragon actually sticks out.
The lifelike handiwork makes it seem as if the golden dragon will break through the binding of bright yellow silk and shoot straight into the sky at the next moment.
I had never paid attention to such details when I was riding in the Dragon Boat Festival before. Now that I have changed my identity, I always care about some vulgar and elegant things without realizing it.
"For your humble job, please see Concubine Jia."
Just when I was confused, a long-lost familiar voice came from behind me. I slowly turned around, and Li Keqing heard a heavy armor being put on his body.
After not seeing each other for a long time, he seemed to have darkened a lot. The hand holding the sword was still strong and strong, but without asking, it was obvious that the hand had put in a lot of effort.
After all, he is a person who is in trouble. When I saw him, I almost blurted out and wanted to be affectionate with him as before. Fortunately, his surprised expression stopped me in time.
"Empress Jia Fei..."
Li Keqing asked again without being sure, as if he was seeing Liang Anle instead of Kou Wanqing.
Of course, I think these are just my own guilty consciences.
"General Li is fine. Is the battle going smoothly ahead?"
I thought it was strange that I hadn't seen him before. Later, by chance, I heard the palace maids talk about his great achievements, and I found out that he had been sent by Yelu Zihan to attack the southern barbarian border country a few years ago.
Looking at his dark skin and the dry cracks on his hands, it seems that he lived a very difficult life during this period.
"I'm sorry to trouble you, Concubine Jia, but I hope everything goes well."
Li Keqing humbly bent over and avoided looking at me.
"Is the empress going back to the palace? Ke Qing can escort her for a while."
"Then there's General Lao Li."
Tianya helped me sit on the Dragon Boat Festival.
Lifting a corner of the dragon curtain, Li Keqing escorted me with a melancholy look on his face.
Am I thinking too much or is Li Keqing today just too weird? If I were Liang Anle, then even the emotion he should show would be surprise.
I'm pretty sure that as Kou Wanqing, I have never had any contact with him, but why did I see more or less pain in his eyes after he looked at me in surprise?
"General Li seems to have a lot on his mind?"
I stuck my head out of Longzhu and asked tentatively.
Li Keqing didn't look at me.
"Empress Jia Fei is now surrounded by honors and favors. She really shouldn't be worried about her humble position."
What does my honor and favor have to do with him? I was even more confused when I heard this.
"The emperor's favor is only fleeting. Tomorrow, a younger woman who will capture the emperor's heart will appear. This palace is just a temporary good fortune."
"Does your Majesty really think so?"
Li Keqing snorted coldly.
"Then why did the empress still throw herself in regardless of her own safety?"
"Yes, knowing that it is a sea of fire but still jumping into it, isn't this human stupidity? Sometimes, the things you want to do and the path you want to take are not what you want, but you have to do it."
I tilted my head against the window door with emotion, the dragon swayed leisurely, and a melancholy feeling of sadness also swayed along with it.
"This is your own choice, Ke Qing has nothing to say."
Li Keqing inexplicably quickened his pace and walked in front of Long Chu. The back in armor still couldn't hide his heroic spirit, but this back...
