.

Caiyu has always had only respect for Chai Shao, but when he looked at him drunk, he felt heartbroken.

Respect is also mutual. When he was in the Eastern Capital, the relationship between Chai Shao and the Li brothers was always good, especially with Li Shimin.

When Li Min's son was completely in charge, they happened to be present. Although her surname was Li, she still hated Li Zhuguo's son.

That night, the three of them broke into Li's mansion in disguise and just to save the helpless woman, but in the end it was Chai Shao who killed the woman. She did not blame Chai Shao, or in their opinion, death was also a relief for the woman.

When they went to rescue the woman, they did not inform Xuanba because in Li Caiyu's opinion, Xuanba was so much more calm than ordinary people, while Chai Shao was more passionate.

From this point of view, Xuanba and Xiao Buyi are the same people, while Chai Shao and Shimin are the same type. She feels that she prefers Chai Shao.

But she suddenly realized that she was very wrong. Chai Shao and Shimin were definitely not the same people. At least Chai Shao entered the game in a daze, while Shimin watched coldly.

After returning to Taiyuan City, nothing happened to her and Xiao Buyi. She even felt that Xiao Buyi was a little over-the-top, calm and not as calm as a person of this age. Maybe she was not qualified to impress Xiao Buyi, Li Caiyu thought to herself.

She didn't have much feeling about Xiao Buyi. Xiao Buyi was very good, but she didn't like it, let alone like it. Who can like someone who has only met a few times? At least Li Caiyu can't do it.

After breaking up with Xiao Buyi, Li Caiyu was waiting at the city gate for her younger brother and Chai Shao’s return. She decided to explain this kind of thing in person. The reason why many misunderstandings became deeper and deeper was that it was because it was too late, but Li Caiyu still underestimated her younger brother.

Li Shimin may not be able to lead the army to fight now, but he surpassed his sister early in terms of calculations.

Li Caiyu doesn't understand Li Shimin, but Li Shimin really knows Li Caiyu too much. Since he does something, he must be thoughtful. He is not afraid of making lies, because he knows that even if Li Caiyu knows, he will have no choice but to deal with him. Xiao Buyi will not ask. Chai Shao, even if he asks, he will have a knot in his heart. Li Shimin did not expect to be successful in sowing one thing. But if there is suspicion between lovers, it is like a crack in the bowl, knocking and hitting is always easier to break.

He took Chai Shao and did not enter the city from the right way, but instead went far away to another city gate. Of course, the excuse was that Yuxianfang was closer to that place. Chai Shao was lost and did not go into any further. He would not have thought that Li Caiyu would wait for him. Li Caiyu waited for a few hours but did not wait for the two of them to turn around. The blame had become a worry. I was afraid that Chai Shao and the others would have an accident. At this time, Li Shimin appeared in front of Li Caiyu with some distress and told Li Caiyu that there was no need to wait for Chai Shao, because Chai Shao was already drunk in Yuxianfang. It is very likely that he would spend the night there.

If it weren't for his own brother, if there weren't a lot of people at the city gate, Li Caiyu would probably kick Li Shimin a few times. This guy was simply flawless in his work, and there was no chance for people to explain.

Li Caiyu went straight to Yuxianfang and found Chai Shao in the strange eyes of a group of clients, girls and mothers.

She saw the scene she didn't want to see the most. Although the weather was cold, Chai Shao was wearing not much more clothes than babies.

When Chai Shao treated her as a singer and pulled her to spend the night with her, Li Caiyu finally couldn't help but burst out.

Chai Shao covered his hot face and asked in disbelief, but Li Caiyu gritted her teeth, "Chai Shao, leave here with me."

"Who is this?" asked a girl, with disdain on her face.

"It's probably Mrs. Chai." Another girl said softly: "Mrs. Chai, you really care about Mrs. Chai too tightly. No wonder he is always depressed."

Chai Shao hesitated for so much time, but he still asked, "Where is Xiao Buyi?"

Li Caiyu turned around and left, Chai Shao couldn't help but go, "Caiyu, what are you doing?"

He drank a little too much. When he reached out, Li Caiyu had already arrived at the door. Chai Shao suddenly burst into laughter, "Let's go, I know you will leave."

Li Caiyu stopped instead, looked back at Chai Shao, without saying a word. It was a vanishing thing to come here. She should have been under too much pressure, but she didn't expect that Chai Shao did not leave her when he saw her, but asked where Xiao Buyi was? This sentence really disappointed her!

"I know you are disappointed," Chai Shao seemed to have guessed Li Caiyu's thoughts and continued to laugh: "Women always have to make excuses when they leave, right? You are disappointed with me, but you know, when I saw you and Xiao Buyi, my heart hurt like a needle?"

At that moment, Li Caiyu's eyes had tenderness, and Chai Shao said again: "But now I understand that I am not as good as Xiao Buyi, I am not as handsome as him, and my official position is very different from him. It is also right for you to choose him. Although I like you, I wish you happiness. You go, go find him, can you let me die for yourself?"

Li Caiyu stopped talking, turned around suddenly and finally disappeared, but Chai Shao fell to the ground and cried bitterly: "Caiyu..."

A group of girls surrounded him and said in a lingering manner: "Young Master Chai, Caiyu is gone, are we still there?"

"Get out, you all get out of here!" Chai Shao shouted angrily.

The girls looked at each other and thought to themselves that the boy was sick. But when he saw his eyes red and his breathing, he pushed to the table and chair with great strength, he couldn't help but be scared.

When the girls left, Chai Shao picked up a jar of wine and poured it down. After a loud "ping" sound, the jar of wine fell to the ground and was crushed to pieces. Chai Shao fell softly to the ground and no longer felt any more.

**

Li Caiyu also had a fire in her heart. The first thing she did when she left Yuxianfang was to find her younger brother.

She knew that there was no reason to say to the drunk Chai Shao, so even if she wanted to say anything to Chai Shao, she had to wait until Chai Shao was awake.

When he found Li Shimin, he was also drinking.

However, Li Shimin looked very sober and not sad, as if he was a little happy. When he saw his sister coming to him, Li Shimin smiled and said, "I don't know what my sister is asking for me?"

"You know it well, Shimin, don't you think you've done too much?" Li Caiyu suppressed his anger.

"Over it, what's too much? I don't understand what you are talking about." Li Shimin poured himself into his own drink.

Li Caiyu snorted coldly, "Do you think you can deceive me like this? You deliberately deceived Chai Shao and said that I was not here. When Xiao Buyi and I went out to worship Xuanba, they set up an ambush and injured my land horse, dug a big hole, and let me and Xiao Buyi get along alone, but you talk nonsense to Chai Shao..."

Seeing Li Shimin still drinking, Li Caiyu grabbed the wine pot, "Shimin, I ask you, are these things I guess true?"

"What's the real thing, what's the fake thing?" Li Shimin said calmly.

"If it is true, you really disappoint me too much." Li Caiyu frowned and said, "Shimin. I don't want to blame you for many things. But I hope this is the first and last time. Xuanba has passed away. Now we brother and sister..."

"Do you also remember that Xuan Ba ​​passed away?" Li Shimin angrily slapped the table and stood up suddenly.

At this moment, Li Shimin was completely disrespectful

.

When Li Caiyu saw his younger brother's anger, he took two steps back. He asked in confusion, "Shimin, what are you doing?"

"What am I doing?" Li Shimin took a long breath. "You don't know what I did? Am I not doing it for the sake of the Li family? If you still remember Xuanba's death, you shouldn't come to me today! Why did Xuanba die, not for the Li family? Xuanba can die for the Li family to save him from the death of his life. What did your sister do for the Li family?"

Li Caiyu bit her red lips tightly and said in a lost voice: "What did you say?"

Li Shimin snorted coldly, "You should know what I said. With Xuanba's pure martial arts, even if he attacked and plotted against him, Li Shanfei and Wang Xuba might not be able to kill him, but he was still dead. Why? Because he knew that the Li family's life and death had reached the front line. If he did not die, he would not be able to resolve this crisis! Li Min fell and the Li family collapsed, our Li family would be affected. Look at what happened in the past year, which one is left in Dongdu? At worst, beheaded, or exiled. How many people can be as glorious as father? But have you, a daughter, ever thought that behind the glory of the Li family, is the blood flowing from Xuanba's land!"

Li Caiyu took a long breath and said in surprise: "You mean Xuanba..."

"Yes, Xuanba's action is no different from suicide!" Li Shimin's eyes suddenly burst into tears, "He analyzed everything with me the day before his death. He asked to return to Taiyuan for burial for a long time. I had already swore to the sky at the moment when Xuanba died that Xuanba's blood would never flow in vain. From that day on, I, Li Shimin, will shoulder the important task of protecting the Li family! If possible, what can I die? But what can I do now? I have nothing, no position or authority, what should I fight with others?"

Li Caiyu became silent, her lips moved twice, but she didn't say a word.

"You think I use your sister's feelings, and you also think I'm sorry for Chai Shao, but I can only tell you that compared to the interests of the Li family, these are nothing. If I do it again, I, Li Shimin, would have made such a choice! Xuanba can die, what is it that I am scolded by your sister?" Li Shimin said in a low voice: "Do you know how many people want Yang Guang to die now, and I want him to die, but he still doesn't die!"

Li Caiyu was so beautiful that she scolded: "Shimin, do you know what you are talking about?"

"Of course I know." Li Shimin said coldly: "Now everyone knows it. At the siege of Yanmen, all reinforcements slowed down the rescue speed. They only hope that the Turkic soldiers captured Yanmen and killed the foolish monarch. I suggest Yun Dingxing use a suspicious plan and not send troops, but I think Yang Guang died long ago. He bullied his father for the rest of his life. Do you think I, a son, will feel comfortable? But even if you are dissatisfied, what's the use of verbal clamoring like the fourth brother, besides causing a murderous disaster?"

Li Caiyu said after a while: "Shimin, don't tell others about these..."

“This is the first time I said it, and the last time I said it.

"Li Shimin sat down slowly, filled a glass of wine, drank it all, but the palm of his hand holding the glass burst out with blue veins.

"The land in Guanzhong is also a land of four barriers. There are many heroes and the scholars and people are strong. They can be defended by dangers. The four dynasties of Zhou, Qin, Han and Sui have all become popular..."

Li Caiyu suddenly felt a little scared because she could no longer understand this younger brother, "Shimin, what did you say?"

"What I just want to say is that now is the time for the Li family to die again." Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "There is a vacant position in Taiyuan. No matter who takes this position, the marriage between the Li family and Xiao Buyi is always a life-saving game. If my father can take the Taiyuan position, his son-in-law is the general of the right guard of the imperial court, and he has countless military and horses. If Li Xiao joins forces, who can compete with us? Even if Yang Guang wants to deal with it, he is afraid that it will be too powerful. If there is a chaos in the world, we will attack the Central Plains and retreat to Guanzhong. We can be at ease, and the Li family can be protected." When he said this, Li Shimin's tone suddenly softened, "Sister, Xuanba can sacrifice his life for the Li family. I can endure ridicule and roll his eyes for the Li family. Can't you give up Chai Shao for the Li family?"

"This is completely different." Li Caiyu shook her head in pain.

Li Shimin stood up suddenly. "What's the difference? Since you are a child of the Li family, you should put the overall situation first. What is love? It's just a childish thing. The legend of Yan Huishan is really too poisoned. Xiao Buyi is the most affection. As long as you don't touch his bottom line, he is lazy to care about you. The obstacle to the marriage between Xiao and Li families is not Xiao Buyi. It's Chai Shao and your childishness. I knew you couldn't bear to leave Chai Shao, so I designed to help you get rid of Chai Shao. Do you still don't understand my painstaking efforts? You really disappoint me!"

Li Caiyu retreated repeatedly, tears were already in the corner of his eyes, "Shimin, I beg you, don't force me, for me, feelings are not what you said."

Li Shimin sneered: "Since you believe in the relationship with Chai Shao, why are you afraid of my test? What kind of relationship can't stand the test? Today, Chai Shao is going to be sincere to you, how could he be suspicious and easily depressed? Sister, I don't want to force you, but you'd better think about it before making a decision."

Li Shimin got up, walked past his sister, but just walked a few steps and stopped again, and shouted calmly, "Dad!"

Li Caiyu turned around and saw Li Yuan's face full of tears, full of haggardness...

Dongdu, Shanglinyuan, Qiluanyuan.

When Empress Xiao stood outside Qiluan Courtyard, her heart was filled with grievance and anger.

She is the oldest person with Yang Guang. When Yang Guang never saw anyone, she also wanted her to accompany her, but for more than ten days, she could not see Yang Guang.

Since the vixen came, the emperor began to ignore the government affairs and did not go on patrols. He just stayed in Qiluanyuan and stayed with the vixen all day long.

Of course, the vixen is just fake Chen Xuanhua!

When she thought of the fake Chen Xuanhua land, Queen Xiao felt a creepy feeling. Although she married Yang Guang at the beginning and had a long land no worse than Chen Xuanhua, she had never fought for Chen Xuanhua in her life. How could she fight with a dead person?

When Chen Xuanhua died, there was always a flawed beauty in Yang Guang's mind. No matter how hard Queen Xiao tried, it still could not replace Chen Xuanhua's position in Yang Guang's mind. Empress Xiao was a little sad and a little thankful, because no matter what, Chen Xuanhua died.

But she never dreamed that Chen Xuanhua would be resurrected from the dead. But that was definitely not Chen Xuanhua, and Empress Xiao didn't believe that Huanyang said, but the emperor's letter was more effective than anything else. Empress Xiao felt deeply saddened. Whether she was dead or fake Chen Xuanhua, she would never be as good as her in her life, even though she was a queen.

Seeing the palace maid walking out in a hurry, Queen Xiao asked nervously, "Where is the lord?"

The palace maid shook her head and said, "Go back to the queen, the emperor said that no one will see you today."

Queen Xiao was stunned, feeling sad. She didn't look like Yang Guang. For the sake of great achievements, she only wanted to protect a man in her life. Unexpectedly, she seemed to be in the arms of someone else in the end.

Just because he was lonely, Yuwen Shu had already walked over from a distance. When he saw Empress Xiao leaving, he hurriedly bowed: "Empress, I am safe."

Queen Xiao squeezed out a smile, "General Yuwen is flat." She said just one sentence and turned around and left. Of course she knew what was hidden on Yuwen Shu's respectful face. Chen Xuanhua was the emperor who was presented to by Yuwen Shu.

Shu looked at Queen Xiao’s back and looked no longer so respectful, even cold.

Of course, he had enough reason to hate Queen Xiao, because her distant nephew Xiao Buyi ruined his son's bright future, and he wanted to cut the two into pieces. However, he was old, so he had many plans and knew that there was a reason to not lose if he was gambling. Although Yu Wenhe cried to him several times, he always scolded him. He knew that his sons would not accomplish great things, but that was his son after all. With Chen Xuanhua, he could win back with his capital and profit at one time.

"Go to report to the emperor and say that Yuwen Shu is asking for advice."

The palace maid was a little uneasy, "Mr. Yuwen, Empress Xiao just now came to the emperor. The emperor said that no one will see him today.

”

"I'll let you report it to you." Yuwen Shu said in a deep voice.
