Imperial Palace, Li Main Hall.
"Second brother, is there still no news of Yu?”
"Guanyin maidservant, don't be anxious. I've already sent the Golden Guards to investigate, and they'll be able to find it very soon!”
"But we've been searching for two days. Chang 'an is only so big. Where could Yu have gone?!!”
Zhangsun Wugou's face was filled with anxiety, and his tears could not stop rolling down.
"It's all my fault. It's all my fault for scaring Little Yu. Otherwise, he wouldn't have left just like that!”
In her opinion, she must have been overly concerned and rushed, causing Li Yu to be wary and leave them.
Indeed.
Who would be so concerned about Sheng the moment they met? Wasn't it obvious that he had some ulterior motives?
"Guanyin servant, don't be anxious. This matter is not your fault. It's also Zhen's fault for not thinking things through.”
Li Er hurriedly came over to support Zhangsun Wugou. The latter pursed his lips tightly and said in a trembling voice,"
"Second brother, do you think Yu has left Chang 'an?”
"This…"
Li Er was stunned.
After a few days of searching, he had searched all the inns and courier stations but had not seen Li Yu. He was unfamiliar with this place, so where else could he go?
" Don't worry, Guanyin Maid. I said that I came to Chang 'an to find my relatives, so I won't leave easily."”
Li Er took a deep breath and said,"
"Perhaps, it's uncertain which mountain village he's staying in. I'll immediately get people to search the surrounding mountain villages!”
"Um…Second Brother, do you think that if they had recognized each other back then, Little Yu would not have left?”
"No!"
Li Er shook his head. He recalled the conversation he had with Li Yu that night. The latter's cold and emotionless eyes said,
" Little Yu has suffered so much these years. He must bear a grudge in his heart…"
" Especially after knowing that I am the Son of Heaven, why didn't I find him earlier? The hatred in my heart is even harder to calm down…"
"If he knew the truth, he would probably leave the world and never return.”
As the emperor, how would he feel if he could not find his long-lost child all these years?
Or incompetent!
Either you don't put the child in your heart!
No matter what the situation was, Li Er couldn't accept it.
"Don't worry, Guanyin Maid. With Little Yu's ability, he won't be at a disadvantage. He just needs some time to find him.”
"Hmm…"
……
At night in Duke Wei's Public House.
Tonight's banquet at Duke Wei's Public House was very different because an uninvited guest had arrived.
After Li Jing brought Li Yu out, he let him wash up and change his clothes. After arranging his accommodation, he let him come to the banquet.
Obviously, he already treated him as one of his own.
This made Li Yu uncomfortable, but there was nothing he could do about it. Moreover, Li Jingli had treated him well, so he had taken advantage of him.
He followed the servant to the inner hall. Li Jing's family had already sat down and were waiting for him. Li Yu immediately bowed.
"Sorry for the wait."
"You are Li Yu?"
A gentle voice rang out. It was a beautiful woman beside Li Jing. Clearly, she was the red-whisked woman.
"I am Li Yu. Greetings, Madam.”Li Yu made a salute.
"Hmm…"
The red-whisked girl nodded and carefully sized her up before asking,
"I heard that you can pierce through a hundred steps, hit ten out of ten arrows, and even pull open the ancestral divine bow.”
"I was slightly lucky, but I didn't dare to call myself brave because of the brute force bestowed by the heavens.”Li Yu replied again.
"Yes, he has a dignified appearance, extraordinary bearing, knows etiquette, and is not arrogant. He is indeed a talent.”
The girl with the red horsetail whisk was obviously quite satisfied with her son-in-law. Beside her, Li Jing also smiled and stroked his beard.
"Everyone's here, but you're still not eating. You're starving. It's all a trick. What's there to ask?”
A dissatisfied voice sounded from the side. It was Li Qing Yin, who was gritting her teeth. The red-whisked girl looked at her and scolded,
"Don't be rude!"
"Humph!" Li Qing Yin turned her head away.
"Alright, take a seat."
Li Jing pointed at the head of the left seat. Li Yu bowed and sat down.
On the opposite side sat the three sisters of the Li family, who happened to meet Li Qing Yin's eyes. When they saw Li Yu sitting down, they looked back and said,
"Dejian, switch positions!"
"Ah?"
A young man beside him was stunned and wanted to stand up. Li Jing said in a deep voice,
"In the future, you will be husband and wife. You have to face each other every day when you sleep in the same bed.”
"Who wants to sleep with him? If anyone wants to see him, I…"
"Bang!"
Li Jing slammed the table, and Li Qingyin immediately shut up. Li Dejian, who was beside him, shrunk his neck and whispered,
"Big sister, my leg hurts and I can't get up. You should sit down…"
"You-!"
Li Qing Yin bit her lips and didn't dare to sit down. She lowered her head and picked up her bowl to eat.
"Alright, alright, you're all hungry. Let's eat.”
The red whisk girl tried to smooth things over. Li Jing snorted coldly and started eating. Only then did everyone pick up their bowls and start eating.
Aristocratic families were particular about rules. They ate without talking or sleeping, and they ate silently.
Even though Li Qing Yin was filled with anger, she didn't dare to pick up her chopsticks.
However, this made Li Yu feel very uncomfortable and a little depressed.
After finishing the meal and rinsing his mouth, Li Jing spoke.
"Dejian, Debao, you can leave.”
"Yes."
The two brothers slipped away. Li Qing Yin also stood up and wanted to leave, but she was stopped by Li Jing.
"Stop!"
Li Qing Yin was stunned. The red whisk girl reached out and pressed her down. "Don't be angry!"
"Tomorrow, bring Li Yu to the military camp.”
Li Jing started to speak. Li Qing Yin was stunned, but then she said happily,
"To the military camp? Alright! I'll bring him to the reserve camp!"
The reserve camp was Li Qing Yin's territory. She would be able to teach Li Yu a lesson there and let him know how powerful she was!
She might even be able to scare him into running away from the wedding. How could she not be excited?
"No, go to the front camp."
Li Qing Yin was stunned and said in disbelief,"
"Join the camp? Why are they going to the camp? This is the vanguard team, this…"
"Because I want to conquer the Eastern Turks."
Li Yu finally answered.
Conquering the Eastern Turks?
Li Qing Yin's eyes were wide open. Even though she was known as an outstanding female general of the Great Tang, she had never been to the front lines!
This person was going to attack the Eastern Turks?!
"Father, is this true?"
Li Qing Yin's eyes were trembling. Li Jing nodded and said,
"Tomorrow, this old man will report to His Majesty about the surprise attack on the Eastern Turks. This old man will personally lead the army in the surprise attack, and Li Yu will follow me!”
"You've been on the battlefield?"
Li Qingyin looked at Li Yu in disbelief, and the latter shook his head.
"No."
"Then you dare to go and attack the Eastern Turks? That was a place that would eat people without spitting out their bones. It was not child's play!”
Li Qing Yin rebuked angrily, but Li Yu nodded and said,
"I know, but a real man has to do something and not do something. I have to go!”
"You!"
Li Qing Yin's heart trembled as she subconsciously looked at Li Jing. "My daughter is going too!"
"You're not allowed to go!"
"Why can he go? Your daughter can't go?" Li Qing Yin was furious.
"This is an order!"
Li Jing was too lazy to explain. Li Qing Yin pursed her lips and gritted her teeth. Tears welled up in her eyes as she turned around and left.
The girl with the red horsetail whisk was stunned and subconsciously said,"
"Husband, your daughter has just confirmed her marriage. If you let Li Yu go to the front line, what if something happens…"
"I won't let him be in danger!"
Li Jing was extremely determined. The red-whisked girl was stunned. She sighed and looked at Li Yu.
"Yu, although Qingyin is stubborn, she is kind-hearted. She was worried about your safety just now. Are you really going?”
Care?
Li Yu was a little stunned. He didn't understand the relationship between men and women. He shook his head and said,
"I must go on this trip!"
