Chapter 124 If You Must Choose One?

Shi Yu looked at Shen Liuzhen innocently, and was stunned. After a while, his expression was a little embarrassed.

A 25-year-old young man, mature, stable, and well-mannered, suddenly showed a blushing and shy expression at this moment.

His lips moved, as if he felt that it would be a weird and embarrassing thing to write a letter to his father to say something from his heart.

Ulay saw his expression, and quickly persuaded him: "Yes, father, the relationship between you two has been so stiff because you only talked about state affairs. Maybe you can reconcile after writing a letter? You Write it, and I will send it to the emperor's grandfather for you."

Shi Yu innocently looked at his son's eyes full of expectation and hope, and couldn't bear to refuse him, so he hesitated for a moment and said:

"Okay, write it alone, but...you have to think about what to write, and you can pick it up tomorrow."

When Ulay heard this, he immediately laughed, as if as long as his father agreed to write it, the current predicament would be resolved.

Although Shen Liuzhen was also happy, he was not as optimistic as Wu Lei.

It would be great if it was really that easy, Shen Liuzhen thought in his heart, forcing a bright smile on his face, it was more to brainwash himself, to force himself to believe that the meaning of this letter could really be that great.

What if not?
Shen Liuzhen looked at His Highness the Crown Prince opposite, with a flash of sadness in his smile: both public and private, he hoped that Shi Yutian would be well.

In this way, the two left the prince's bedroom.

Ulay said happily: "...I thought the father would be very sad, but now it seems that I think too much, and it is also... the father has been helping to manage the government since he was 12 years old. But, how could he be like me, crying at every turn?"

When he said this, his tone was full of admiration.

Shen Liuzhen couldn't help but twitched the corners of his lips, and asked: "The emperor's grandson, Caomin especially wants to ask a question of courting death. I don't know if the emperor's grandson will give Caomin a chance."

Wu Lei was in a much better mood than before entering, raised his brows, looked at Shen Liuzhen and said:

"I'm curious about this. Shen Liuzhen, who has always been timid and cautious, wants to risk his head and ask a question. What is the problem?"

"Then... I'm asking, will the emperor's grandson forgive me?"

"Forgiveness... not only forgive sins, I can forget it after hearing it, you can ask." Ulay said with a smile.

Shen Liuzhen pretended to be a gesture, clasped his hands in front of him, shook his shoulders, cleared his throat, and asked:
"Your Majesty and His Royal Highness, who do you like more?"

"Hi... I thought it was some kind of question." Ulay was obviously disappointed, and said, "I have been asked this kind of question so many times since I was a child. Of course I like all of them."

Shen Liuzhen's smile slowly disappeared, and he asked solemnly and in a low voice: "Then what if they force you to choose one of them?"

There was a flash of light in Wu Lei's deep eyebrows, and then suddenly became sharp, turning his head and glaring at Shen Liuzhen.

Rarely, Shen Liuzhen did not pretend to be cute, let alone show weakness, but looked at him persistently and rationally, as if he must wait for an answer from Ulay.

Wu Lei and Shen Liuzhen looked at each other for a while, Wu Lei almost gritted his teeth and approached him, whispering:
"I know what you want to say... I'll say it again, I like both of them, I want them both, and no one wants me to choose!"

Shen Liuzhen lowered his eyes and blinked his eyelashes.Ulay turned and left, leaving alone.

When Shen Liuzhen finally sat down quietly when he got home, he remembered that he had stolen a book from His Highness the Crown Prince.

He took out the book and put it on the table in front of him, staring at the dried and blackened blood spot on the book in a daze.

Liu Qinbing next to him came in and said to him: "No letter today." After seeing the book he was reading in a blink of an eye, he asked:

"Hey, the emperor's grandson rewarded you with another book?"

Shen Liuzhen didn't look up, and said flatly, "No, I stole it from the East Palace."

Liu Qinbing was startled when he heard it, and then saw that he said it so calmly, so he asked suspiciously: "Mr., is this a joke or is he telling the truth... Should Liu be laughing at this time?"

Shen Liuzhen sighed, and said in a very dull tone:

"Hey... I really hope that His Highness the Crown Prince can rebel. At least if he becomes the emperor, my life will be more protected. Your Majesty has killed too many Han people recently... I'm afraid that one day His Majesty will not understand me. There are Han people in front of my grandson, who ordered me to be slaughtered..."

When Liu Qinbing heard this, he also became apprehensive, sat next to him and asked, "Then what should we do? We can't even run away, then...then do you think the crown prince can succeed in rebelling?"

Shen Liuzhen stretched out a finger, turned up the corner of the book in front of him, and carefully pressed it down. Looking at the dark red on it, he felt extremely unbearable.

He opened the cover of the book, stopped looking at the bloodstain, sighed and said: "It's not a question of whether he can succeed, but because of his character, he will not rebel."

When he said this, the focus of his eyes suddenly lost. He looked at the void, and suddenly thought of Xie Yuanlai who was far to the south, and said:
"A Yuan is fighting in the south, and I'm walking on thin ice here... I don't know if the two of us will survive until the day we meet again."

Liu Qinbing couldn't agree with this... On the battlefield, swords have no eyes, and there is no battle in which no one can die.

And Shen Liuzhen is here, on the cusp of the turbulent waves of the Great Wei court, whether he can live or not depends entirely on the emperor's mood...

The chances of them surviving to meet each other are really slim...

……

……

Since the last battle, the army has been routinely repaired.There will be a long time when there will be nothing to do.

After his father left that day, Xie Yuan chatted with his master for a long time before he found out.It turned out that Master's subordinate army was sent to the edge of the southwest, in fact, because of the fiasco with the Beiyi people.

Although it is said that it was Zhang Guo and the Zhang family who rebelled.That led to the disastrous situation.

But after all, Zhang Guo is the school lieutenant under the master... His subordinates have betrayed, even if you are seriously injured, you will not be able to get rid of the crime of not being investigated.

So... After making up for the rebellion, he was still exiled to this bitter cold place to guard the frontier.

Since they were exiled, naturally they were not given so much food and materials.Half of the food needs to be borne by themselves.

Therefore, Xie Yuan, the newly appointed head of the guard, in order to make up for the lack of rations for the 300 men under his command, took advantage of the time when he brought the troops out to familiarize themselves with the terrain and train, and had to hunt and dig wild vegetables.

This day, Xie Yuan shot a rabbit that had just emerged from its nest with quick eyes and hands, and ran to him to have a look.

The body of the female rabbit was blocking the entrance of the hole, and a little rabbit next to it, only the size of a palm, circled the female rabbit in panic, but couldn't enter the hole.

She froze for a moment...
