C15

Seven days later, Li Chenbai left the capital.

He narrowed his eyes, indicating that the slightest bit of light would make him very uncomfortable. He no longer rode his beloved horse, and holed himself up in a carriage that concealed his presence.

His greatest crisis had passed. Mu Qing Ji and Hong Ying were busy with their own things, so they stopped guarding him.

The guard rode beside Li Chenbai's horse carriage, not moving an inch. He strung his strings and looked around vigilantly, thinking of the master in the horse carriage who did not make a sound, and his heart felt like it was pressing down on a mountain.

In the past, Li Chenbai was cold and cheerless, but his eyes were still bright and full of hope. Now, however, that coldness had seeped through his bones and sunk to the bottom of his heart.

It used to be the white moonlight in the sky, but now it was the quiet pebbles by the river.

"Stop." Li Chenbai suddenly said from the car.

The guard hurriedly reined in his horse and waited on Li Chenbai to get off the carriage.

The morning of July was perfect for the journey, and the air was still fresh. The grass on both sides of the road was lovely and green, with crystal clear dewdrops on the sides. The birds flapped their wings in the sun, chirping and playing in the woods. In the distance, the contours of the tall city gates could be seen, brimming with vitality.

Li Chenbai got out of the car and looked around.

His face was as pale as a sheet, and even his lips were bloodless, as if he had fallen ill, or as if he had grown up overnight. In front of Li Chengming's naivety and immaturity, he could no longer be seen, only his bamboo like back was still stubbornly upright.

He stood by the roadside with his hands behind his back, allowing the morning breeze to blow his long hair and his snow-white sleeves to blow. He stared in the direction of Chang'an, speechless for a long time.

"Wei Gang, after you return to Shu, don't follow me anymore. Let Yong Zheng replace you." Li Chenbai said slowly.

Wei Gang was shocked, he immediately kneeled down to Li Chenbai and said, "Master, this subordinate knows his wrongs! Master, I will definitely change my mind. Please don't chase me away. "

He had no idea what was wrong with him...

Listening to Wei Gang's idiotic words, Li Chenbai did not have a single bit of smile on his face, "I am not chasing you away. When we get back, senior brother should have found a substitute for me. Go and watch over there, don't let the double make any mistakes. "

A false alarm!

So it wasn't expulsion, but a heavy responsibility! Wei Gang wiped away the sweat on his forehead as he thought in gratification. He then asked, "What about you, Master?"

"Me? "I'm going to the National Reporting Temple to look for that old monk from the Mountain and Sea Realm."

"We can't do that, Mistress!" Wei Gang knelt down again, sweating profusely in fear.

The frightened expression on his subordinate's face made Li Chenbai laugh, but the smile on his face did not reach his eyes. His tone was calm and his tone was difficult to hear, but it sounded like he was saying to himself, "Don't worry, he won't go out on a mission. No matter what, I won't give up on myself. I'm going to acknowledge a master. That old monk from the Mountain and Sea Realm hid a peerless skill in medicine, especially the Nine Revolutions Golden Needle. "

"I want to cure Fourth Brother." The youth's face was pale as he spoke word by word with slow difficulty.

He did not know whether the path he had chosen was right or wrong.

Compared to the other brothers, Li Chengmeng was more open with him.

He had also thought about it before, that he could simply hide in that Heavenly Province like he was doing in Ba Shu, pretending to be deaf while living in seclusion. This way, he and mufei would be able to live under that person's charity until they grew old.

This, too, may be what the Consort would have wished.

As a mother, she always wanted her son to be safe. She definitely didn't want him to take the risk.

But now, he had chosen another difficult path, and he wanted to help fourth brother and fifth brother.

Helping Fourth Brother and Fifth Brother was also helping himself to escape from the fate of being manipulated by others with the saber hanging over his head!

This path was destined to be filled with killing intent. If he failed, not only would he be unable to protect himself, but he might also implicate his mother's concubine in the palace. Even though they were brothers, he didn't know much about his two brothers. How could he possibly be helping another wolf?!

While he was feeling uneasy and hesitant at the same time, Wei Gang heaved a sigh of relief. He finally let go of the stone in his heart.

"That's good, that's good …" The guard muttered with a bitter face. His legs were so weak that he almost couldn't get up from the ground. As long as you don't go out and become a monk, you can do anything!

Nothing happened that morning, but it was always exciting.

This was the official road into and out of the capital. There was an endless stream of people coming and going. The moment Li Chenbai stopped, the long line of ceremonial ceremonies of the King of Shu also stopped. Li Chenbai moved to the side to make way.

Even though he had dodged to the side of the road, there was still some conflict. A bearer accidentally jabbed a horse in the honor guard with a carrying pole, and when the horse was in pain, a young woman kicked him to the ground. That person fell to the ground and didn't get up. He cried out in anger.

There were a dozen or so people who were accompanying the porter. When they saw that something had happened, they all stopped and put down the goods. They surrounded the porter to give him a boost and shouted, "Pay up!"

Wang Yi said arrogantly. After all, that was someone who ate royal food. How could he be willing to eat this kind of food? Both sides immediately started quarreling. The more they argued, the louder the ruckus became. It seemed that the situation was about to escalate. Li Chenbai gave him a look and went to take care of it.

The guard thought of settling the matter and gave the porter two taels of silver as a gift.

They had received the money, but they were still quarreling.

That porter still sat on the ground, shouting with a red face and a thick neck, saying that no matter what they did, they wouldn't be able to see it back then, he was afraid of the side effects, saying that if they ran away, who would they go to?

The guard was extremely annoyed, so he wrote them a note. If they had any side effects, they could go to the east market and gather there. That was the property of the Shu Family, and they would treat it for him.

The porter took the slip of paper and read it for a while as if he was the leader. Then he shoved it back to Wei Gang and said arrogantly, "We can't read, so what the hell are you trying to trick us with!" At least he had extorted another silver tael before the dozen men left happily.

After making such a ruckus, Li Chenbai's sorrowful mood turned sour. He turned around and was about to get on the car and set off. They had to get to the next station before the sun rose at noon, or the horses and men would not be able to bear it. It had been a long time.

Wei Gang had a strange expression on his face. He came over to help Li Chenbai get on the carriage, and took the opportunity to stuff a piece of paper into Li Chenbai's hands.

Surprisingly, it was the one the porter just stuffed back.

The note was not the one that Wei Gang had written down, nor was the handwriting a guard dog. Instead, it was the perfectly straight and upright little kai hairpin.

"Sixth brother's eyes do not feel well, it should be caused by the poison of the Valley of the Apocalypse, the treatment should be extremely careful, don't treat it as if it was an ordinary eye disease."

Hong Ying was wrong!

His older brother was still thinking about him! His brother was reminding him! His brother, risking the danger of being rejected, was reminding him!

Tears suddenly gushed out of Li Chenbai's eyes, as he covered his heart with the slip of paper. Suddenly, walking alone in the darkness, he saw the excitement and peace of light. The joy of hope that suddenly emerged from his despair made him want to cry, and he couldn't control his emotions.

He called Wei Gang over. "Catch up with that group of porters and give them another fifty silver taels. Tell them to gather a pile of medicinal herbs for four days. Don't scam others when you have nothing better to do!"

"Yes sir!" Wei Gang acted as if he was throwing money at someone as he aggressively ran off to ridicule that person.

In the carriage, Li Chenbai smiled with tears in his eyes. This time, Fifth Brother should understand, right?
