One person, one city, guarding the border for 30 years

Chapter 72

"He can't say yes."

Li Zhuowan didn't need to ask, she knew Lu Qingfan well.

Besides, Lu Qingfan is extraordinary!

Now he is one of the Four Saints of the Great Zhou Dynasty!

How can you allow others to point fingers?
This king of Dian is probably a little confused!
"That would be a pity!"

Li Xiuyuan saluted Li Zhuowan again, "My lord, I'm here to bid farewell to you. If you have nothing to say, I'll go back to Caiyun City first."

"Okay, you go back."

"Farewell, sir!"

Li Xiuyuan left.

Zhao Wuji and Gao Wancheng, who hadn't shown up for a long time, came to the city wall.

The two saluted together.

"His Majesty!"

"Mr. Lu!"

Li Zhuowan glanced at the two of them, "Is there something wrong?"

"Your Majesty, we would like to ask Mr. Lu for advice."

Gao Wancheng looked at Lu Qingfan with respect, "With Mr. Lu's cultivation and realm, as long as he is willing to give us a little guidance, maybe Wuji and I can break through the bottleneck and be promoted to a ninth-rank powerhouse!"

"Don't think about it, you two, you don't have this chance."

Li Zhuowan knew Lu Qingfan's temperament, it was impossible to agree to such a thing.

"Yes!"

Gao Wancheng and Zhao Wuji looked at each other, unable to hide the disappointment in their eyes.

Ugh!
What a pity.

The opponent is extraordinary!
If you miss today, you may not have a chance to see her in the future.

Such an opportunity is so rare!
"It's okay, you two just leave."

"Yes."

Zhao Wuji and Gao Wancheng withdrew with regret.

Xiaoqi also tactfully found an excuse and left.

After a while, only Lu Qingfan and Li Zhuowan were left on the city wall.

"That mountain looks so high!"

Li Zhuowan pointed to the highest peak of the Wanshou Mountain Range, "I want to see it, you can go with me, just the two of us."

"I just came back, so I won't go."

Lu Qingfan refused.

"Too."

Li Zhuowan slapped her head, "I was negligent."

Suddenly, Lu Qingfan frowned.

"The person who urged you is here again."

"what?"

Li Zhuowan didn't understand, but after a while, her expression changed.

A fast horse rushed into the city.

"His Majesty!"

Xiaoqi ran up anxiously, "The queen mother has sent another order, please return to the capital as soon as possible!"

"understood."

Li Zhuowan waved her hand impatiently.

"Yes!"

Xiaoqi didn't dare to say anything more.

days thereafter.

Li Zhuowan stayed by Lu Qingfan's side all the time, serving tea and water, talking to relieve boredom.

It's like going back to five years ago.

Li Zhuowan found the happiness back then.

The only thing that bothers her is that the Queen Mother's decrees follow one after another.

In just a few days, more than a dozen edicts were sent in succession, each time being more urgent.

Come back to Kyoto!

Just a few words, with a sense of urgency.

Li Zhuowan could still sit still, but Zhao Wuji and Gao Wancheng were scared.

On this day, the two of them came to the city wall and knelt down in front of Li Zhuowan with a plop.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to invite you back to Beijing!"

Gao Wancheng had a determination on his face.

He is going all out, if the Holy Majesty does not agree, he will remonstrate to the end!

"Your Majesty, I beg you to return to Beijing!"

Zhao Wuji also opened his mouth with a determined face.

He also thought about it, if the sage refused to leave, even if he died, he would bring the sage back to Beijing!
"What are you two doing?"

Li Zhuowan turned cold.

"Your Majesty, please return to Beijing!"

Zhao Wuji and Gao Wancheng kowtow together.

"Don't force me!"

Li Zhuowan frowned tightly, about to explode.

At this time, the sound of horseshoes sounded again in the distance.

More than one horse.

The sound of hooves approached, and the riders began to shout.

"One hundred thousand fire!"

"Eight hundred miles urgently!"

Several fast horses rushed into the city.

"here we go again!"

Li Zhuowan is used to it.

"His Majesty!"

Xiaoqi ran to the city wall, holding a few letters in her hand.

"Read!"

"Yes!"

When Xiaoqi opened the first letter, her expression changed instantly.

Her voice trembled a little.

"The barbarians are gathering near Yanzhou, which may be detrimental to our Zhou Dynasty. Please return to the capital quickly, Your Majesty, to discuss state affairs!"

"what?"

Hearing this, Li Zhuowan was shocked, "Barbarian? How dare you offend me?"

Zhao Wuji and Gao Wancheng also changed their faces. They stood up and asked in surprise: "Isn't there a sword master sitting in the north? Where do the barbarians have the courage?"

"Read more!"

Li Zhuowan saw more than one letter in Xiaoqi's hand.

"Yes."

Xiaoqi opened the second letter.

"The barbarian national teacher broke through the bottleneck and was promoted to an extraordinary powerhouse!"

With just one sentence, the doubts in the hearts of several people were resolved.

But at the same time, they were even more flustered.

The barbarians have always been eyeing Da Zhou, but because they don't have extraordinary experts to sit in command, they dare not offend easily.

But now, the barbarians actually have extraordinary powerhouses?
Now it's troublesome!

"Keep reading!"

Li Zhuowan looked at Xiaoqi's hand, there was still a letter.

"Yes."

Xiaoqi opened the third letter.

"The barbarian national teacher has gone to the sword house, and he wants to challenge the sword master!"

The three letters have been read, and everyone is silent.

The atmosphere was a little depressing.

War is coming!
They know what it means.

will die!
And many people will die!
The peaceful life in the past is gone.

Countless lives will be affected.

The prosperity of the Great Zhou might even be ruined because of this.

"Get up and drive back to Beijing immediately!"

Li Zhuowan sighed, and looked at Lu Qingfan with reluctance.

Ugh!
It's only been a few days?
The time we spend together is too short!

See you next time, but don't know when?
"Yes!"

Zhao Wuji and Gao Wancheng left in a hurry.

Xiaoqi also followed behind them.

Only Lu Qingfan and Li Zhuowan remained on the city wall.

"I gotta go!"

Li Zhuowan felt uncomfortable, but still forced a smile, "You have to take care!"

"Go."

Lu Qingfan smiled at Li Zhuowan, "Be your emperor!"

"Ah."

Li Zhuowan nodded vigorously, she hesitated a little, and said: "Maybe one day, I won't be the emperor anymore, at that time you should take me in!"

"Let's talk about it later."

Lu Qingfan didn't want to promise anything.

"it is good."

Li Zhuowan was not too disappointed, and even a little happy.

Although Lu Qingfan didn't agree to her, he didn't reject her either.

This shows that she still has hope!

There is hope!
"Your Majesty, it's time to set off!"

Xiaoqi ran up and urged.

"it is good."

Li Zhuowan stopped dawdling, and waved to Lu Qingfan, "I'm leaving."

"Go."

Lu Qingfan nodded.

Li Zhuowan turned and left.

Lu Qingfan watched her walk down the city wall, and then watched her get into the carriage.

"Get off!"

The team started to move forward.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted, Li Zhuowan leaned out and looked at the city wall.

She saw Lu Qingfan and waved to Lu Qingfan vigorously.

"If you're bored of being alone, go to Kyoto to find me at any time. No matter what time it is, I will wait for you!"

"move!"

Lu Qingfan also waved to Li Zhuowan.

"Ah."

Li Zhuowan nodded and shouted loudly: "Don't forget, you are my only friend!"

Lu Qingfan stopped talking, just looked at Li Zhuowan quietly.

"Let's go."

Li Zhuowan sighed softly, but refused to let go of her hand.

As the convoy drifted away, Li Zhuowan kept looking at Lu Qingfan on the city wall.

Until you can't see it anymore!
Her heart suddenly became empty!
It's like something is lost!
