Chapter 249 Crossing the River

Put on a green jacket and robe, Liu Xi carried Xiao Ling'er out of the door, and then he realized that the place where he lived was an ordinary courtyard. A peach tree stood alone in the courtyard, with a faint frost hanging on the branches.??                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 �

Oh……

Liu Xi exhaled, and there was a ball of white water vapor.

Looking up at the blue sky, the clouds spread thousands of miles away, but I couldn't see half a flying bird.

Autumn goes and winter comes, and everything is silent and chatting. It turns out that before you know it, it is already the cold winter season.

After sighing in his heart for a moment, Liu Xi took a deep breath again. The air was cold into his lungs, like a sweet spring in the mountain stream, which made people feel refreshed.

But a little while, Liu Xi frowned because the fresh air was filled with the smell of herbs.

Looking at the east wing of the courtyard, Liu Xi's face was full of unbearable expression, then sighed helplessly, pinched Xiao Ling'er's nose, "Be good Ling'er, I'll talk to the princess, will you be fine when you go to play with Sister Xun'er?"

He blinked his big eyes mischievously, and the little girl nodded well, then jumped towards the backyard like a butterfly.

When I walked to the east wing, the herbs in front of my nose became more and more intense. When I felt regretful, Liu Xi gently knocked on the wooden door.

Soon, a subtle sound of footsteps came from the house. Perhaps because of the fear of the cold wind rushing into the house, only a gap was made in the wooden door.

Biyue, who was full of sorrow, appeared in front of Liu Xi's eyes.

Seeing Liu Xi, a trace of brilliance flashed in Biyue's dark eyes, as if he was in the dark and saw the long-lost brightness. The sorrow between his eyebrows seemed to be blown by the spring breeze, leaving her worries with the rain and dew.

He bent over and gave a bow to Liu Xi, and Bi Yueman said softly with joy, "Sir, you are awake."

Nodded with Biyue, Liu Xi said straight, "Princess is in the house?"

When Liu Xi mentioned Princess Lan Jin, the worry between Bi Yue's eyebrows appeared again. She looked back at the house, then nodded and gave up her body, "The princess is uncomfortable, so she has been recuperating in the house. Sir, please come in quickly."

When Liu Xi entered the room, Biyue took a deep breath and then carefully closed the door from outside.

Perhaps because I was afraid that the cold wind would enter the house, the small window in front of the dressing table would be blocked tightly, which made the room a little dim and made the charcoal fire burning in the copper furnace look particularly eye-catching.

Princess Lan Jin, wearing a white skirt and jacket, sat at the wooden table. Judging from her back, she was thinner than in Chang'an City. At this moment, she stared blankly at the bronze mirror in front of the dressing table, not knowing that Liu Xi had entered the house.

At her hand was a bowl of hot medicine.

"Ahem..."

Liu Xi coughed twice, breaking the silence in the room.

Princess Lan Jin turned her head when she heard the sound. When she saw that it was Liu Xi, she immediately showed joy on her sad face. She suddenly stood up. But for a moment, her eyes dimmed again and slowly sat back to her original place.

"You woke up, it's so good..."

The words were full of desolate colors, like the bleak mountains in the severe winter, which made people feel very distressed, which made Liu Xi not know how to speak for a moment.

As if all the words could not be found after Princess Lan Jin's faint and weak lament.

The small copper furnace was still burning alone, and sometimes two subtle crackling sounds were produced, as if they were trying hard to break the silence in the room.

At some point, Princess Lan Jin's shoulders trembled. Although she was carrying Liu Xi, Liu Xi could still clearly see the crystal clear tears hanging on the eyelashes of Meiyao from the bronze mirror.

Those red and swollen eyes had endured so much sad tears.

He sighed softly in his heart again, Liu Xi stepped forward and took two steps, and spoke softly, "Actually, you and I understand that even if you enter Chang'an and become a relative, this situation cannot be changed..."

The low crying sound broke for a moment, and then echoed in the room again, as if more sad than before, and more helpless and sad.

Liu Xi didn't know how to comfort him in this situation, so he picked up the silk handkerchief that had not dried up at the table and gently handed it to Li Mengxiao's face.

As if all the sadness had been wiped out, Princess Lan Jin suddenly turned around and threw herself into Liu Xi's arms, tears falling like rain, and she cried bitterly.

"You said, is the Tang Dynasty going to be defeated..."

Tears continued to overflow from her swollen eyes. Princess Lan Jin looked up at Liu Xi. Although she had an answer in her heart, she seemed to want to hear a different answer from Liu Xi.

Even if it's just a lie, she's willing to believe it.

Looking at the face of pear blossoms with rain in front of her, Liu Xi felt a pain in her heart for some reason. She reached out to wipe her tears gently for Princess Lan Jin. After a long time, she shook her head, "In fact, the outcome may not be necessary."

"really!"

It was like a little spark fell into the dead grass in the plain. Liu Xi's words instantly filled Princess Lan Jin's eyes with a blazing color like flames. Her weak hands came from where they got the strength. She grabbed Liu Xi's arm tightly, which made him feel a little pain.

"Although the national strength of the Tang Dynasty was not as strong as that of the Han Dynasty in recent years, the people were still in their hearts, so they united in guarding the Tang Dynasty."

These words seemed a bit high-sounding, so after Liu Xi finished speaking, Princess Lan Jin still stared at him with big eyes, wanting to hear more words that would make her feel hope again.

Seeing Princess Lan Jin's appearance, Liu Xiwo continued, "The military strategy is full of military power, and the war is the most important thing. However, there are many water systems in the Tang Dynasty. Even if the Han army is good at raiding, it will be somewhat delayed. As long as the time is longer, it will be more unfavorable to the Han army. Those who go deep into the enemy's belly for a long time will definitely die. Therefore, as long as the Han army can be held back for a year or two, they will definitely turn defeat into victory."

Princess Lan Jin nodded thoughtfully. It was not until this time that she believed that what Liu Xi said was not a random word to comfort her.

In this way, Princess Lan Jin felt a little more at ease.

Suddenly, Princess Lan Jin remembered that she was still in Liu Xi's arms, and immediately became inexplicably panicked again. Although she was extremely shy, she really liked the feeling of being so close to Liu Xi.

After a moment of disgust, Princess Lan Jin leaned her head against Liu Xi's chest again.

After staying in Princess Lan Jin's house for a while, when the latter's mood improved, Liu Xi asked Biyue to heat up the medicine again. After seeing Princess Lan Jin taking it, she left the house.

"grown ups……"

Outside the room, Biyue called Liu Xi softly, but she had not spoken for a long time and just bent over and gave a bow.

Understanding her actions, Liu Xi could only wave his hand with a smile. Although he had said those words to Princess Lan Jin before, what would happen in the current situation? How could Liu Xi, as an ordinary person, see through it?

Many times, I say something, but I have to understand another truth in my heart.

With Liu Si giving all his national strength, Li Tang's safety will be in danger. At that time, how can his revenge plan be realized?

When he was extremely melancholy, Liu Xi took a deep breath very hard, allowing the cold breath to enter his body so that his extremely chaotic thoughts could calm down.

But since ancient times, the sorrow has been constantly scattered and confused, so how can it be erased so easily?

Taking a deep breath of coldness again, Liu Xi looked at the spotless clear sky of thousands of miles, and shook it gently for a long time, "It seems that it will snow."

The cold winter night seemed to come earlier than usual, and the dusk had not yet faded. When the bloody setting sun hung in the sky and was reluctant to leave, the roaring evening breeze had already begun to gallop between the sky and the earth without restraint.

In a hidden place by the river, a man in black robe clasped his fists with Xiao Wu, and saluted Liu Xi several feet away, and then hurriedly disappeared into the layers of melting night.

A by the river, a simple small fishing boat was swinging with the surging river water. The Han army blocked it very strictly, which was also a fishing boat that military disciples could find through hard work.

Standing on a small fishing boat, the wet river breeze blew towards him. Looking at the Wujiang River that could not be seen at the end, Liu Xi suddenly remembered the situation when he crossed the Wujiang River with a small boat in order to find out his uncle.

The past is vivid in my mind, but it is like a different world.

With the efforts of Xiao Wu and Ma Xiu, the small fishing boat moved forward quickly like flying fish on the surging river.

Around the wind, outside the sound of the waves, is the sound of the waves.

It seems that in this way, he can reach the other side safely and climb to Li Tang's land.

But the more ordinary it is, the more dangerous it is.

Suddenly, the fire was bright, and in the distance, a group of flames seemed to come from the sky, trying to ignite the river surface shrouded in strange night.

It is a rain of fire made of countless arrows.

Seeing this situation, Xiao Wu's green steel sword flew out of his sleeves, and a cold light shone, lifting a few drops of river water, and then his sharp edge surged towards the rain of arrows.

One sword breaks ten thousand arrows.

All the feather arrows were powdered clean under the sword energy of the Qinggang Sword.

Xiao Wu's cultivation seems to have improved. It seems that he has learned a lot during this period. I am afraid that he will enter the realm of the soul in time.

While Liu Xi was thinking secretly, another wave of feather arrows came. This time, Ma Xiu, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, sacrificed the Qiankun fan, and immediately fanned like a universe, causing huge waves to rush, swallowing all the feather arrows.

It seems that Ma Xiu has already stepped one step ahead of Xiao Wu and entered the realm of the soul.

He shook the long strand hanging down from his forehead with pride. Ma Xiu threw the Qiankun fan, which was regarded as a treasure by the family, into the water, like a paddle sticking to the small fishing boat, causing the small fishing boat to rise a little bit soon.

"Don't run away!"

With a roar, a figure came over the waves, and in a blink of an eye, it had already flown out a hundred feet. It seemed that this person's cultivation had reached the cave heaven.

Seeing the visitor, Liu Xi and Tian Xun'er looked at each other, and then "Shangxie" and the embroidery needle flew out at the same time. Only a scream could be heard. The Western Han master who had previously been fiercely aura fell into the surging river and disappeared.

Suddenly, there was a silence among the Han army.

Seeing this situation, Ma Xiu immediately laughed loudly. Under the unrestrained laughter, the boat passed through thousands of waves in a blink of an eye and headed towards the riverside.
