Royal villa, in the study.

Because of the effect of alcohol, Li Xiaoyao's face turned slightly red, and Lin Xiao helped him sit at the desk.

Wu Daozi stood on one side with a gratified smile on his face. He hadn't seen Li Xiaoyao in four years.

Li Xiaoyao was only twelve years old at that time, and he spoke a little immaturely, and was very arrogant.

At that time, Wu Daozi, who fled from Chu to Han, only regarded Li Xiaoyao's words as a child's words and did not care much about it.

But four years have passed, and what Wu Daozi could not have imagined was that his words as children's words four years ago are gradually realizing now.

"Prince, aren't you drunk?" Wu Daozi asked with a smile.

"I'm not drunk. I just pretended to be for the guards at the door." Li Xiaoyao sat upright, looked at Wu Daozi and said, "Thanks to you today, otherwise..."

Before Li Xiaoyao finished speaking, Wu Daozi arched his hands and said, "Prince, this is my subordinate."

"Thank you!" Li Xiaoyao said sincerely.

Four years ago, Li Xiaoyao had a grace to Wu Daozi. In order to repay his kindness, Wu Daozi agreed to help him establish a shadow guard.

But after all, Wu Daozi just wanted to repay his kindness for the meal, and this kindness for four years was repaid.

Li Xiaoyao felt a little guilty.

"Your Majesty, you are serious. If you hadn't been you back then, you wouldn't have been as Wu Daozi as you are today." He said with a casual expression.

Li Xiaoyao stood up, came to Wu Daozi, and smiled and said, "You have spent four years to repay your kindness. This love has been paid back long ago. Speaking of which, I should be a little sorry for you and tied you to the capital for four years, so there is no need to mention anything to repay your kindness in the future!"

"The prince has saved his life and will never forget it for his life. Besides, his subordinates just took the things you arranged as tasks. However, he never expected that you did it seriously, and it only took four years."

Wu Daozi became more and more excited as he spoke: "I am willing to follow you. I can see that you will definitely become a good emperor. Under your governance, the Han Dynasty will surely prosper and have a prosperous country and a prosperous country."

"I love to hear this." A smile appeared on Li Xiaoyao's face, and then his expression became solemn: "Wu Daozi, I will not hide it from you. In the near future, there will be a battle between Chu and Han, but you are from Chu, so I don't want to see you in a dilemma."

"Now I have arrived in the capital. If you want to leave, I will never stop you. Shadow Guard, I can hand it over to Lin Xiao for management. I can fulfill my promises back then and give you freedom."

Wu Daozi fell into silence. He promised Li Xiaoyao that he would enter Beijing for five years and form a shadow guard for him. Now, only four years have passed, but he has returned his freedom in advance.

He is indeed a king who keeps his promises.

But the Chu and Han war started...

Wu Daozi was unable to make a decision for a while and looked embarrassed.

"Want to go back to Chu?" Li Xiaoyao saw Wu Daozi's ugly face and knew that he was in trouble. After all, Chu was his home.

"Your Majesty, you misunderstood." Wu Daozi said with a serious expression: "For his subordinates, the State of Chu is just a sad place, so it's better not to go back!"

"Sad?" Li Xiaoyao asked in confusion: "Why do you say that?"

Wu Daozi smiled and said, "Prince, I promised you that five years are five years. It's not time yet, do you want to drive me away?"

He looked at Lin Xiao and smiled and said, "Did the prince want to kick me away and give Lin Xiao the shadow guard he built up by his subordinates? Besides, Lin Xiao is from Zhao. Will the prince drive Lin Xiao away when he will attack Zhao in the future?"

"I won't leave. My life was given by the prince. I won't go anywhere..." Lin Xiao said excitedly.

"Okay!" Li Xiaoyao smiled and said, "I'm just kidding!"

He looked at Wu Daozi and said, "Since you want to stay, I welcome you."

Since Wu Daozi changed the subject, he must not want to mention the past, and Li Xiaoyao is not the gossiper.

"Thank you for your success," Wu Daozi saluted.

"Okay, it's too late today. Go back early to rest." Li Xiaoyao said yawning.

Then, the three of them walked out of the study together, and Li Xiaoyao returned to the room by himself.

Lin Xiao walked on another road, and he wanted to send Wu Daozi out of the Royal Villa.

On the way, Lin Xiao glared at Wu Daozi with a pale face and said, "Next time, if you dare to mention that I am from Zhao, please be careful that I will turn against you."

"Yoyo!" Wu Daozi chuckled, "Are you angry now?"

"Don't smile with me, what I said to you is serious." Lin Xiao said with a stern face.

"Okay, it's my fault." Wu Daozi said with a serious expression: "I was also anxious at that time, so I was speechless. Please forgive me."

"Hmph!" Lin Xiao glanced at him and walked straight away, while Wu Daozi followed him and stopped talking.

Wu Daozi could fully understand why Lin Xiao was so angry.

Qin Mansion, capital.

In the woodshed in the backyard, a dirty steamed bun rolled from the door towards Qin Xiaotong, who was wearing maid's clothes.

She curled up and leaned against the straw pile tremblingly. Suddenly, a dirty steamed bun entered her sight.

She swallowed, stretched her scarred hands with some difficulty, and slowly approached the steamed buns on the ground.

Just as she was about to pick up the steamed buns, a girl in red walked in and raised her foot and stepped on her hand to the ground.

Qin Xiaotong raised her head in horror and exclaimed in pain: "Qin Wanshu!"

"Qin Xiaotong, I'm here to tell you two good news." The girl in red, known as Qin Wanshu, had a hint of pride on her face.

"What good news?" Qin Xiaotong was a little shocked. Since her father was killed by Guo Hu, the prince was forced to send her back to the Qin family.

And in the past few days after returning to the Qin family, he was tortured by the witch in front of him. Now, as long as Qin Wanshu doesn't hit her, this is already great news.

Qin Wanshu moved her feet away, squatted on the ground, picked up the steamed bun, handed it to Qin Xiaotong, and smiled and said, "Your Brother Xiaoyao is back to Beijing."

Qin Xiaotong was shocked, and the steamed bun in her hand fell to the ground, and tears began to flow in her eyes.

She regretted it, regretting why she wanted to come to the capital.

If she hadn't come to the capital, didn't want to marry the prince, or be the queen, she wouldn't have separated from Li Xiaoyao, maybe her father wouldn't have died, and she wouldn't have suffered such inhuman torture now.

Two lines of clear tears slowly flowed down.

"Ah!" Qin Wanshu looked back at the accompanying maid in surprise, and chuckled: "Our Miss Qin actually cried."

Then, he looked at Qin Xiaotong and continued, "I didn't expect that Miss Qin, who was driven out of the door by His Royal Highness and was beaten up by me, actually started crying when she heard the words "Brother Xiaoyao."

"Geeh..." Qin Wanshu covered her mouth and smiled: "But your brother Xiaoyao is about to marry Princess Zhiqing of the Lin family."

"What?" Qin Xiaotong suddenly looked up.
