Chapter 114 It’s better to call me a deserter
The raging flames behind him burned into Li Yi's eyes. His eyes were red, and anger and regret welled up in his heart.

He exerted great restraint and his voice trembled.

"Where did you get Jiang Yue?"

Fang Pinlan looked at Li Yi's angry eyes and felt unhappy for no reason.

"died."

The word "simple" rang in my ears like thunder.

"When she dies, you will be buried with her."

Li Yi waved his hand, and a branch came into his hand, and murderous intent spread everywhere.

Xie Wenyu hurriedly hugged Li Yi.

"Uncle can't help it. Let's find someone first. No one has seen it. Maybe she is deceiving you!"

Li Yi refused to listen and muttered in a low voice, "Let go!"

With a sudden force, Xie Wenyu was shaken away, and a sharp branch shot straight towards Fang Pinlan's eyes.

Whenever Jiang Yue suffered a little bit because of this woman, she should die to apologize!
Fang Pinlan felt no disturbance in her heart, and even closed her eyes in resignation.

Just when the branch was almost an inch away from the eyes.

There was just a "ding" sound, and a stone happened to hit the branch.

Li Yi stopped and a figure jumped down from a tree not far away.

"Hey, little book boy, you have to thank me, or you will die."

Bai Anyu's tone was relaxed, but Li Yi noticed something strange.

When the man came up to him, Li Yi's expression changed from a look of fear to a hint of surprise.

"Brother! Woohoo!"

Fang Pinlan swooped behind Bai Anyu. Bai Anyu turned his face slightly. Under the firelight, he had clear outlines and thin lips slightly parted.

"Xiao Pinlan, you are naughty again."

"Bai, Bai Anyu."

Li Yi finally confirmed that this was Bai Anyu, the deputy general of Huaicheng who defected many years ago!

Bai Anyu opened his lips and his voice was hoarse.

"My lord, long time no see."

Just when Li Yi was about to say something, there was a cry from the child's door.

Lin Jiangyue rushed over in a hurry, rushed up and gave Xie Wenyu, who was watching the show, a loud bang.

"The house is on fire and you don't know how to put out the fire?! There are so many people standing here stupidly!"

Li Yi took Lin Jiangyue into his arms, "Jiang Yue!"

Lin Jiangyue felt not only the warm embrace, but also the accelerated heartbeat.

She broke away and looked at Fang Pinlan.

"Have you forgotten that I can pinch and count? Although I never count myself, I just went down to help my children tuck in quilts. Why did such a big thing happen? You still want to burn me to death?"

Fang Pinlan clutched Bai Anyu's clothes tightly and hid behind him, trembling with fear.

"Since you're not, it's okay, just think I made a joke."

Lin Jiangyue took out her peach wood sword and said, "Okay, if you take one strike from me, I won't be able to kill you anyway, just treat it as a joke."

Bai Anyu opened his arms to better protect Fang Pinlan behind him.

Lin Jiangyue naturally recognized that this was Dayun's former master.

"Master Bai and this girl are old acquaintances?"

Bai Anyu answered calmly, "Childhood sweethearts."

Fang Pinlan also understood at this time that this big brother was her brother's friend Bai Anyu. "No, no." Fang Pinlan hummed in a small voice.

"She has been naughty since she was a child, and we will compensate for the damage caused. As for her, I will be responsible for sending her home and educating her well."

Bai Anyu protected her firmly, but Lin Jiangyue had no choice.

Li Yi's eyes were dark. Lin Jiangyue was fine now. What he cared more about was why Bai Anyuyao betrayed him as a deserter back then.

"It's okay to let her go, but you first need to explain clearly what happened back then?"

Bai Anyu smiled and said, "Then you must first promise not to take me back and put me in jail."

"Didn't you talk about putting out fires?" Xie Wenyu didn't understand the situation and looked confused.

The fourth brother's house has a simple room, a table, two stools, and two water glasses.

Li Yi's face was as frosty as ice.

"Tell me, why?"

Bai Anyu took a sip of water.

"I was indeed defeated and fled."

"I'm asking why you ran away."

Bai Anyu's tone was relaxed, "Did I escape? Maybe so."

"Our army is fully prepared for the battle at Wangmo. How could we lose if you hadn't escaped?"

Bai Anyu also slowly put down the water glass. "Then please tell me, Your Majesty, how you are fully prepared?"

Li Yi clearly remembered that because there were important matters in the palace, it was the first time Bai Anyu led an army alone to the borderland of Wangmo.

The new leader of the foreign tribe is just a boy in his early ten years. He is eager to make meritorious deeds and repeatedly causes troubles and provocations on the border.

Logically speaking, for such a small tribe, it would be more than enough for Bai Anyu to lead an army there.

Unexpectedly, several small tribes actually launched a joint attack, and Bai Anyu disappeared.

"Army, food and supplies, I ask the Holy One to give you the most adequate preparations, just waiting for your triumphant return, but you are nowhere to be found."

"Then, my lord, did you know that our soldiers on the front line were almost starving to death? Not only that, but there was also an outbreak of disease?"

Bai Anyu's tone was calm, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

"Not only that, if I guess correctly, you who are far away in the capital haven't received an urgent letter, right?"

Li Yi was stunned, "Absolutely impossible! Who dares to stop it?"

Bai Anyu lowered his head and smiled, "Those who want to get rid of me."

"We had no choice. We were short of food and water, and the epidemic broke out. We delayed for more than half a month. We didn't see any help for a long time, so we could only think of retreating to the county town. Unexpectedly, we were ambushed halfway, and I saw the mysterious leader. "

"He is not a human. To be precise, he is a combination of man and beast, with a human body and horse legs. In short, our army was defeated and I was taken away by the mysterious leader."

"It's strange to say that he talked to me while blindfolding me and asked me what the city of Tokyo was like."

"I told him that the city of Tokyo is very prosperous and beautiful, but that is not something they can covet."

"He said he had thought about Tokyo many times and couldn't imagine what it looked like. He said he knew Li Yi and he would capture you alive next time."

Bai Anyu stopped and looked straight at Li Yi.

"My lord, they have been targeting you many years ago, so be careful."

Li Yi cleared his mind and asked Bai Anyu again.

"So, what you are saying is that you did not defect, but were captured, and someone in the palace deliberately wanted to get rid of you."

Bai Anyu waved her hand, "My lord, you might as well say I'm a defector. The word "capture alive" sounds so damn oppressive, but don't say it, that man was quite polite and locked me up for a few days before letting me go."

Was all this done by the Queen?
Li Yi had a big question mark in his mind, but could the queen really have such great hands and eyes?

"My lord, sometimes, the answer you least believe may be the real answer."
