"I know you are too lazy to read, so I will open it for you and read it out for you."

Lu Lingqi made a show of opening the letter and chanting it.

However, Li Kuan stopped her.

"No, no need to."

Lu Lingqi was stunned for a moment, her hand froze when untying the letter, and she said in surprise: "Your Highness, what do you mean..."

Li Kuan laughed, his voice full of magnetism.

“Don’t hire people with suspicion, and don’t use people you doubt.”

"When we left, since everything was left to the Taoist priest, it was natural for him to make the decision."

"We are thousands of miles away from Chang'an City. If we judge what the Taoist Priest should do based on just a few words in the letter, we will make mistakes."

Lu Lingqi thought for a while and continued: "Your Highness, I won't make a judgment, but you can just take a look, how about it?!"

Li Kuan still shook his head.

"No need."

"After reading the letter, I'm just afraid..."

Speaking of which,

Li Kuan cast his deep gaze into the distance and said in a very melancholy voice: "I, Li Kuan, miss the city of Chang'an and the little Sizi."

When Lu Lingqi heard this, she was slightly startled, then smiled bitterly.

She also wants to visit Chang'an City.

This broken place,

It's cold and freezing, and there's nothing there. There's no comparison with Chang'an City.

"Then Your Highness, why do you insist on coming here?!"

"If we were in Chang'an City, if we had the geographical advantage, we would never be at a disadvantage against the Fanyang Lu family for several times. But since we left Chang'an City, we have lost the geographical advantage, as well as the personnel and intelligence advantages.

I was chased by that Fan Yang Lu family like a bereaved dog."

"Your Highness, forgive Lingqi for asking boldly, why do you insist on doing this?!"

Finally, when there was a suitable time to ask about this matter, Lu Lingqi directly said it all at once.

The voice fell.

Li Kuan was silent for a long time.

Smile slightly.

"You will know about this later."

"Okay, let's not talk about this, Lingqi, look down from this angle, what can you see?!"

Li Kuan asked.

They were at a cliff, with an abyss ahead of them.

Seeing that Her Highness had no intention of answering her question, Lu Lingqi had no choice but to give up. She came to the cliff and looked down. She could see endless wind and snow, as well as the vast land.

"Is it... the earth?"

Lu Lingqi is not sure.

"No, it's vision."

"vision?!"

"That's right, vision! Only when you stand at the highest position can you see clearly the big picture and the insignificance below."

Li Kuan laughed, looked up at the sky, and continued: "In the past, we were in Chang'an City, in the center of the whirlpool, and many things in Chang'an City limited our horizons."

"We are unable to see things clearly outside Chang'an City, but after coming out this time... I passed through various places and saw the customs and life in various places. From then on, I, Li Kuan, also saw some things that I had not seen clearly before."

"Fanyang Lu family, Big Dipper..."

"The things they did in the past were really strange. I, Li Kuan, could see a little bit of it and understand some of the things arranged by Mr. Liu."

"The authorities are confused, but bystanders know clearly. Only by jumping out... can we see farther and clearer."

Li Kuan couldn't help but sigh.

At this time, he was caught up in some kind of reminiscence, and Lu Lingqi, who was next to him, did not hear clearly what Li Kuan said, because she was fascinated by Li Kuan's words midway through, and she was fascinated by the serious look on his highness's face.

"Um?!"

Half a moment.

After reacting, his face became slightly hot.

Lu Lingqi turned away, not daring to look directly at Li Kuan, and asked: "Then, Your Highness, what should I do next?!"

"Continue to search the snow-capped mountains. What you are looking for should be above this higher snow."

Li Kuan already had an idea.

Then, I seemed to think of something.

Keep talking.

"By the way, Lingqi, what's going on over there in Xuzhou?!"

When it came to business, Lu Lingqi became more serious and replied: "Don't worry, Your Highness, Mr. Yu has already taken people to Xuzhou. The two tasks you gave him are to protect that gentleman and to establish the Damascus Steel Plant. I believe he will be able to do it in the future."

Finish."

"Um."

Li Kuan nodded with satisfaction, and then continued to ask: "So, where is Youzhou?!"

"After Mr. Lan left Chang'an City with us, he took advantage of Fan Yanglu's unpreparedness and broke away from the team to lead others there."

Lu Lingqi continued to respond, pursed her red lips and thought for a while, then continued: "Your Highness, please rest assured that except for these two gentlemen, all the other gentlemen also acted according to the plan and separated from us on the road and headed to the prefectures and counties of the Tang Dynasty.

.”

"Under Mr. Liu's plan, the head of the Fan Yang Lu family did not notice that the escaping gentlemen were leading the team to leave. He always thought that we were just a single force, and therefore... we attracted all the firepower."

Li Kuan understood.

"Your Highness, forgive Lingqi for questioning. Mr. Liu's plan seems to have deceived the head of the Fanyang Lu family, but... this plan is to use you as a bait, and now we have too few available manpower. Isn't it yours?"

How much more dangerous has it become?”

The voice fell.

Li Kuan's face was calm, and he still maintained his sitting position, looking at another snow mountain in the distance.

"I, Li Kuan, have been targeted by the Big Dipper, so I am in danger all the time. I am just acting as a bait, nothing more."

"Lingqi, on the other hand, a few days ago Mr. Liu asked you to take some people to protect Mr. Sun and leave for Yizhou. Why did you refuse?"

Finished.

Then he looked at the heroic Lu Lingqi.

Lu Lingqi quickly turned around, briefly met Li Kuan's eyes, then hurriedly lowered her head, and then half-knelt down towards Li Kuan.

"Your Highness, Lingqi will only regard your safety as the first priority!!"

"You... are also the backbone of our group. If you are in too dangerous a situation, all the gentlemen will miss your comfort and be too preoccupied to complete the tasks assigned by you wholeheartedly."

"But with Lingqi here, they can feel more at ease!!"

Li Kuan looked at Lu Lingqi. Because she lowered her head, he could only see her silver hair, and said, "Isn't it your selfish intention?"

Lu Lingqi's eyes flashed with panic.

But fortunately, he lowered his head and was not noticed.

“It’s definitely not Lingqi’s selfish motives!!”

Li Kuan smiled and said: "Lingqi, I'm just asking casually, don't be nervous."

"But... to tell you the truth, you know that being around me, Li Kuan, is extremely dangerous. If you follow Mr. Sun to Yizhou, you still have many leisurely days, but with me, Li Kuan, it will be extremely dangerous in the future.

There is only endless wind and snow and the threat from the Fan Yang Lu family, you have to think about it carefully."

"It's not too late to turn back now. You can ride on a horse alone in the evening and leave the snowy mountains for Yizhou. This is what Mr. Liu and I want."

Lu Lingqi heard this and said seriously: "Your Highness, Lingqi will not come back."

"What, you're not afraid of death?"

"What's the fear of death? Lingqi is willing to die to protect His Highness's safety!!"

See Lu Lingqi's serious attitude.

Li Kuan no longer sticks to his own opinions.

Speak out boldly.
