Chapter 12
Naturally, Wan Qing and Wan Lan also understood this truth, and immediately straightened their faces, and both knelt down to accept the order, "I will definitely live up to my master's expectations, and I will do my best to protect my wife and young master until I die!"

Li Xiao stretched out his hand to help them up, and said to them with relief, "Very good! I will thank you very much for what happens later!"

Both Wan Qing and Wan Lan responded in fear, "The subordinates dare not, the master is too polite!"

At this time, Wan Qing and Wan Lan didn't know what kind of road they chose to reach the sky, but for countless years after that, whenever they thought about this day, Wan Qing and Wan Lan were extremely grateful that they were accepted Li Xiao was selected and sent to Murong Jiuyue's side to embark on that great journey with her.

The next day, when the sky was just getting bright, everyone in the small courtyard had packed up and was ready to go.

Before parting ways, Murong Jiuyue handed Li Xiao a letter and said to him with gratitude, "Ah Xiao, as the saying goes, thank you for your kindness, and we will have a long life in Japan. Keep this letter and wait for me." Look after you leave, maybe it can protect you and the Duke Protector's Mansion."

Li Xiao took the letter, looking at Murong Jiuyue with his dark eyes, he had thousands of words in his heart, but he didn't know how to say to her, "Yue'er..."

Murong Jiuyue cupped his hands at him, "Ah Xiao, we will meet later!"

With deep reluctance in Li Xiao's heart, he replied with a choked voice, "There will be a time later!"

In his hand, he tightly squeezed the letter she gave him, and just watched her get into the carriage with the child in his arms.

Looking at that slender but resolute figure from the back, for a moment, Li Xiao really wanted to step forward and hug her.

He wanted to tell her that he didn't want her to go;

He wanted to say to her, stay, stay by his side.

He also wants to tell her that he will always protect her and the child under his wing, even if he dies, he will protect her and the child well, as long as she is willing!

But the woman he has always loved deeply is so special and different.

He was even thinking how good it would be if she was as weak as ordinary women, and entrusted all her hope and support to men. In that case, when she had nothing to rely on, he would have Chances are with her.

But he also knew in his heart that she was very proud and she had her persistence.

She knows better how to go her own way.

And he can only help, but he can't make her let go of everything and follow in his footsteps willingly.

Thinking of this, Li Xiao's heart is even more bitter...

Watching the carriage gradually go away, Li Xiao only felt as if a large piece of his heart had been hollowed out by someone, it was empty, numb and painful, and a heart-piercing coolness pervaded his body.

He stood there for a long time, until he could no longer see the shadow of the carriage...

"Master, go back to the house!"

With Uncle Ming's reminder, Li Xiao regained his senses, turned around silently and went back to the house.

He opened the letter Murong Jiuyue gave him, and what he saw was Murong Jiuyue's clear lowercase script, which felt like a person, revealing her proud demeanor.

After reading what Murong Jiuyue wrote, Li Xiao was extremely shocked.

It turned out that all of this was the reason why the Murong family and her were hunted down by Long Chenghe.

The letter in his hand was light, but in Li Xiao's hand, it felt as heavy as a thousand catties.

He understood Murong Jiuyue's painstaking efforts and trust in him.

She was worried that Long Chenghe would not let him and the Duke Huguo go, so she told him the big secret of the royal family, and also hoped that he and the Duke Huguo could take advantage of Long Chenghe's weakness and let Long Chenghe Cheng He didn't dare to do anything wrong to him and Duke Huguo's mansion again.

She finally urged in the letter: For the safety of each other, he is not allowed to contact her within this year. After one year, she will take the initiative to contact him, remember!Remember!
Thinking that there would be no more news of her for a whole year, Li Xiao was speechless, his eyes filled with tears.

With red eyes, he carefully folded the letter and put it in his arms.

Sure enough, he didn't misunderstand her. While he was protecting her, why wasn't she trying to protect their safety!

He strode out of the door, summoned Uncle Ming and the others, and quickly closed the courtyard door, and the group of people galloped towards the base camp in Liangzhou.

With this secret letter from Murong Jiuyue, he is now [-]% sure to deal with Long Chenghe's methods.

As long as Long Chenghe still cares about the throne, he can't afford to lose!

When Li Xiao returned to Li's house in Liangzhou, he immediately called for the patriarch of the Li family, that is, Li Leiting's grandfather, Li Leiting, and discussed in detail how to deal with Long Chenghe, the great enemy.

Let's talk about the pursuit of Wang Ye.

When Wang Ye led a group of iron cavalry and hurried all the way to the other courtyard of the Duke Huguo's mansion outside the imperial city, the building was already empty and there was no one left.

Wang Ye cursed inwardly: You Li Xiao, you are really fast enough!

Wang Ye thought about Long Chenghe's horror again. If he couldn't complete the task, Long Chenghe might be angry and kill him on the spot. He was in a bad mood immediately, and his face was so gloomy that water dripped out.

He led the people to search around, but what he wrote down was the doubts and clues that Li Xiao and the others deliberately set up.

"Wuxi, you lead a team and chase south; Yanbei, you lead a team and chase east; I lead people to chase north. No matter which side we find first, we must send a signal immediately. do you understand?"

Wuxi and Yanbei Qiqi took orders, "Your subordinates obey!"

"Drive—drive—"

On the official road to Yizhou, a man dressed in black, with a cold face, was riding a tall horse, whipping his whip, and galloped on the official road.

Behind him, there are about [-] men in black riding on horses.

The entire official road was filled with the frightening sound of iron hoofs running like thunder.

When the passers-by saw their menacing posture, they all jumped aside in fright and hid, for fear that they would cause trouble and lose their lives if they were not careful.

This group of people is the elite guards in the palace led by Wang Ye.

When they were chasing Murong Jiuyue, because there were misleading routes set up by Li Xiao along the way, they took a lot of wrong paths, and they were unable to catch up with Li Xiao and the others.

The huge pressure of not being able to catch people, not being able to deal with errands, and being afraid of losing his life, was like several mountains pressing on Wang Ye's head, making Wang Ye in an extremely irritable and irritable state. Potential.

Li Xiao was even more cunning than he imagined, so he set up so many doubts, leading them astray time and time again, and also causing them to lag behind him time and time again.

While this made Wang Ye feel frustrated, he also deeply hated Li Xiao.

He thought in his heart, when he finds an opportunity, he must give Li Xiao a good look, so as to relieve his hatred.

But when they arrived at the place where Murong Jiuyue stayed, the building was empty again.

What a wrong step, every step loses.

Wang Ye was so angry that he had no choice but to lead his people to Liangzhou again, planning to go directly to the Li family to ask for someone.

At this time, Wang Ye, who was so anxious, didn't know that Long Chenghe was also anxiously waiting for him to report the good news in the palace.

But what Long Chenghe received was the bad news that Wang Ye reported day by day. After learning that Wang Ye had been chasing after him for several days and nights, he still failed to capture Li Xiao and Murong Jiuyue back to the palace. At that time, Long Chenghe scolded him so many times that he was useless, and he already regarded Wang Ye as an incompetent person in his heart, and regarded him as a discarded chess set.

Long Chenghe called out four innate masters who were not easy to attack from the palace, and sent them to Yizhou in a hurry, and issued an order to kill them.

As long as Li Xiao and Murong Jiuyue are found, they will be killed on the spot!
