Under the bitter cold wind, the earth is showing a depressed scene, making people feel a little sad.

There was a big tree in the eastern suburbs, with two people sitting on the shaft.

"It turns out that Brother Han, you rushed to meet Queen Wu just to know if she knew about this." Ono blinked his big eyes.

Han Yi nodded slightly and said, "I had thought that Chen Shuozhen would leave one day, but if she left quietly, she would have no worries about her life, but if Queen Wu asked her to leave, I'm afraid." At this point, he shook his head gently.

Ono said in confusion: "Brother Han, I don't understand this. Didn't Empress Wu say that? She just asked Chen Shuozhen to leave Chang'an and go to a place where no one knows her and don't show up again. I think it's normal for her to do this. Why are you so sure that she will definitely kill Chen Shuozhen? I don't think she has to kill Chen Shuozhen."

Han Yi smiled bitterly and said, "Ono, as a politician, he tries to eliminate everything. This is the most reasonable choice for a politician, no doubt about it." Speaking of this, he frowned slightly and sighed, "Even if Queen Wu is really merciful, for my sake, she will definitely kill Chen Shuozhen."

Ono said curiously: "Why is this?"

Han Yi shook his head and sighed: "Now Empress Wu is deliberately trying to deal with me, or is waiting for an opportunity, but before taking action, she will definitely get rid of Chen Shuozhen first. And in my opinion, when Empress Wu took in Chen Shuozhen, she was not worried about sisterhood at all, but because she was just a Zhaoyi at that time, and she was just a Zhaoyi, and she really might not be able to kill Chen Shuozhen. She had to stabilize Chen Shuozhen, so she took in Chen Shuozhen. Later, she asked Chen Shuozhen to protect me, but she didn't want to be threatened by me, because in this way, I and she were in contact with Chen Shuozhen, so we will naturally keep this secret.

However, one after another, Changsun Wuji was dead, and the situation in the court was settled. At the same time, there was another crack between Empress Wu and me. At this time, she had the absolute advantage. She would definitely take advantage of her advantage and find a way to eradicate me. Then you say she could not let me go. After she forced me into a desperate situation, will I take Chen Shuozhen to fight her? Therefore, she will definitely kill Chen Shuozhen."

Ono said curiously: "Since Brother Han, you have known it for a long time, why didn't you tell Chen Shuozhen in time?"

Han Yi was silent when he heard this, and there was a look of guilt between his eyebrows.

Ono said again: "Do you don't trust Chen Shuozhen, afraid of letting Queen Wu see your plan?"

Han Yi looked at Ono a little embarrassedly, then nodded, and said, "This is indeed the reason why I didn't inform her in time. Because her relationship with Empress Wu is also extraordinary. If Empress Wu noticed it, it would be over. I wouldn't dare to take this risk, but I have been thinking of ways to avoid this. I went to find Chen Shuozhen today, and planned to use this expedition to get her out. However, I really didn't expect Empress Wu to act so quickly, because I am still relatively safe at present, because we have to focus on His Majesty and work together to eliminate Goguryeo. If anyone dares to make trouble in this matter, His Majesty will definitely not let him go. In addition, Chen Shuozhen and I have agreed long ago that even if one day she decides to leave, we must say to me in person, but I didn't expect her to leave without saying goodbye."

He said this, but he didn't want to excuse himself, because he had to be very careful when he was playing for a little while. He was still thinking about how to let Chen Shuozhen leave, and not let Wu Meiniang doubt him.

Because Chen Shuozhen has a very subtle effect on being between them, it can be said that Chen Shuozhen tied them to a certain extent. If Han Yi suddenly untied the rope, it would be separated, and Wu Meiniang would definitely doubt it.

Han Yi can't do this, but Wu Meiniang can do this, because Chen Shuozhen originally defected to Wu Meiniang, and is also Wu Meiniang nominally. Wu Meiniang can of course tell Han Yi very frankly that no one in the court can threaten us, and the general situation is decided, but if anyone shakes Chen Shuozhen out, we are both finished. We defeated Changsun Wuji, and there is no threat in the court. If we lose to Chen Shuozhen, we will really die with our eyes closed. This is reasonable, and Han Yi also plans to help Chen Shuozhen get out.

Ono said: "Then do you think Queen Wu has killed someone to silence her?"

Han Yi shook her head and said, "No, she won't take action in Chang'an, because if she fails, the consequences will be unimaginable and there is no room for rescue. Moreover, she doesn't want me to know that she already knows my relationship with Changsun Wuji, so as not to alarm the snake. I believe she didn't lie to me before. She did ask Chen Shuozhen to tell me, but the purpose is to numb me. If all this was not intended by me, I would be deceived by her. I think she would choose to take action in a safe place. Unfortunately, Chen Shuozhen didn't tell me where she was. Even if I wanted to save her, I didn't know where to save her."

Ono thought for a while and said, "Brother Han, my master once told me that those who want to accomplish great things should be careless about the details. If you want to go against the queen, there will inevitably be someone who sacrifices you."

Han Yi was stunned when he heard this, and suddenly grabbed Ono's arm with one hand and said, "Ono, you must not think so. Brother did these things just so that we can live better. If we didn't meet you, Brother would never go on this path. So, if you are not here, then all this will become meaningless. You must remember that no matter what, no matter what happens, living, living is the most important thing."

Ono opened his big eyes and looked at Han Yi blankly. After a while, he nodded and said, "I understand."

Han Yi nodded, let go of his arm, and touched his head again, but he felt unbearable sadness in his heart. He didn't expect that we would never escape the fateful arrangement in the end.

Ono rarely sees such helpless Han Yi, and is very worried, so he said, "But Brother Han, Chen Shuozhen is also very cunning and has a good ability. I think it is not that easy for Queen Wu to kill her. Don't worry too much, maybe she can escape this disaster."

Yes! Chen Shuozhen is not a good person either. Han Yi's eyes lit up, but then it immediately dimmed. Unfortunately, Wu Meiniang is much stronger than her. It can be seen that Ono looked at him worriedly, and he still smiled and nodded, "I hope this is the case."

Ono said: "Brother Han, it's getting late, we have to go back."

Han Yi looked at the sky, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I want to go to the cave."

—

Before leaving, Changsun Wuji had already handed over Wang Xuan to Han Yi, leaving the two little girls to protect Wang Xuan.

Dong!

The lingering sound lingers on the beams and he doesn't want to disperse for a long time. Unfortunately, such a wonderful sound of the piano did not touch the only audience.

"You seem to have something to worry about?"

Wang Xuan looked at Han Yi lying on the stone couch with a little curious look.

Han Yi was slightly stunned, looked at Wang Xuan and said, "How do you know?"

Wang Xuan stroked the strings with her slender jade hand and said lightly: "Because you haven't covered it up."

Han Yi smiled, but today his smile always contained a hint of sadness, and said, "In the past, I didn't hide my emotions in front of you, but you didn't see it, which shows that you have made a lot of progress."

Wang Xuan said: "I'll play another song."

"No need." Han Yi sat up and said, "The Grand Marshal was demoted from Chang'an not long ago."

Wang Xuan's hand trembled suddenly when she heard it, and accidentally plucked the strings of the piano, making a thud. "You - what did you say?"

Han Yi sighed and said, "You heard it right, the Taiwei lost."

"How could this happen?" Wang Xuan's body trembled slightly.

Han Yi said: "Because His Majesty chose to stand on Empress Wu's side, it became like this."

"It's that fox again." Wang Xuan's eyes that had been silent for a long time suddenly flashed with hatred, and her pink fists clenched, trembling slightly. Suddenly, she looked at Han Yi with a slanted eyes, "Then why can you still stay here?"

"Did you react quite quickly?" Han Yi smiled and said, "I stayed here because I haven't lost yet. At the same time, the Taiwei also hopes that I will stay in Chang'an and continue to fight with Empress Wu."

Wang Xuan said: "It's up to you?"

"There is no general in Shu, and Liao Hua is the vanguard." Han Yi shrugged and sighed, "Don't bother to bother you. This is the best result. No, at least someone will tell you this news. However, the reason why we have a connection is because the Taiwei is there. Now the Taiwei has left, and our connection has been cut off. So, if you want to leave, I will arrange someone to send you away. I still have this ability."

Wang Xuan was silent for a while and said, "What if I don't want to leave?"

Han Yi spread his hands and smiled, "Then keep playing, but you have to understand that losing the Taiwei will turn into a life-long game."

Wang Xuan sneered, "That's better than death in this life."

Han Yi said heartbrokenly: "Does it hurt you when facing me like this?"

"Um!"

"It seems that you haven't understood your current situation yet. You are the dish in my bowl now. I can do whatever I want to do to you. If I were you, I would definitely think about my words and deeds."

"You have always said that." Wang Xuan said deeply disdainful.

"Ahhhhh! You saw through it!" Han Yi smiled helplessly, lay down again, bent his arms and pillow, sighed: "There is no way. It is my style to just say not to practice. This country is easy to change, but it is difficult to change one's nature."

Wang Xuan suddenly asked, "Then my uncle and the others."

Han Yi narrowed his eyes and said, "In this game, it's meaningless to care about these things. Maybe someone will tell you tomorrow that Han Yi lost, was demoted to Chang'an, and then took you off and did whatever you want. After all, not everyone is like me, just talking but not practicing."

A burst of sadness flashed in Wang Xuan's eyes.

Han Yi said again: "Actually, you are already very lucky, at least you are still alive."

Wang Xuan suddenly looked at Han Yi with a slanted look, silent.

Han Yi only felt that this woman's gaze could see through him. As a fraud, he rarely felt this way and said, "Why are you looking at me like this? Don't worry, I can't die tomorrow, you don't need to look at it a few more."

Wang Xuan said: "You have other things to worry about."

Han Yi rolled his eyes and said very depressedly: "This time I really had a concealment. I didn't expect you to see it. I hope you have made progress, not me have made a regression."

As he said that, he sighed and said, "I'm leaving Chang'an soon."

Wang Xuan rolled her eyes immediately.

"But it's not that he was demoted, but that he was going to fight." Han Yi said: "Your Majesty has decided to send troops to Goguryeo and let me serve as the grain escort officer."

Wang Xuan was stunned for a moment, then said "Oh".

"oh?"

Han Yi said excitedly: "Please, I'm going to go to war soon. It's a very dangerous task. Can you care about me? I need people's care now."

Wang Xuan said coldly: "Didn't you say it just now? It's no point in caring about these things."

Han Yi was stunned for a moment, and looked cold and smiled playfully, "You can teach me."

Wang Xuan suddenly plucked the strings, and the sound of the zither sounded again, but the sound of the zither contained a sense of farewell. I don’t know whether she was bidding farewell to Liu Shi, Changsun Wuji, or Han Yi.

What is certain is that Han Yi is only thinking about that woman.
