Chapter 214 Goodbye Prince Cheng

Ji Qiu adjusted his emotions before slowly opening his mouth: "The boss has always valued friendship, and King Yongding promoted him all the way to the position of General Guard and Cavalry. He is very grateful to King Yongding and will not easily go against him. At that time, Xu Hua framed the boss in the name of King Yongding. He said it was a frame, but in fact, King Yongding acquiesced, so the boss was disappointed with King Yongding. Wending Village."

Qin Ya frowned and sighed, Li Chenggu was able to reach his current position because of his love and loyalty. Even if he lost his status as a general of body guards, there were still people willing to follow him.

But it was also because of his love and loyalty that he lost a leg.

"If Xu Hua hadn't hijacked you last time, the boss still didn't want to get involved in those affairs of the court, it was just forced by the situation."

"I see."

Qin Ya hugged Li Xi'er and stood up: "You go back first, I'll wait for him to come back here."

Since the lame incident was framed by Xu Hua, he must earn it back no matter what.

She doesn't understand the stakes in the court, but she also understands the role of money. No matter what Li Chenggu wants to do, as long as he can earn enough money as support, he can definitely help him.

Thinking of this, Qin Ya became more obsessed with silver. Her shop will not only be opened in Jinling, but also throughout the whole country!

Li Chenggu and Ning Zong rushed to Jinling Mountain at high speed, and the speed was much faster. When it was getting dark, they reached the foot of the mountain.

Li Chenggu looked up at the mountain, since he left from King Yongding, he hadn't seen the people in the court, and suddenly he was going to confront these people again, he was really nervous.

Ning Zong looked a little worried: "Boss, is it really possible to go up like this?"

I don't know how many people are on the other side, and I don't know the purpose. If they really want to attack Li Chenggu, then no one can stop them.

Li Chenggu shook his head: "It's okay, I'll go up alone, you wait at the bottom of the mountain."

"No, I must protect your safety."

Ning Zong immediately rejected his words, how could he let Li Chenggu go up the mountain alone?
"Since he asked me to meet here, there will be no other actions."

"in case."

Seeing that he was determined, Li Chenggu could only sigh: "Okay, you go up with me."

It took the two of them another half an hour to go up the mountain. At this time, the sky was completely dark, and the howling of wild animals could be faintly heard on the mountain.

In the place where the cottage used to be, Li Chenggu finally saw a vague figure.

"General Li, please stay safe."

A dull male voice sounded, and Li Chenggu felt familiar. He hadn't heard this voice for a long time.

"Lord Cheng."

Li Chenggu shouted softly.

Prince Cheng is the younger brother of King Yongding, and the two have a good relationship. Prince Cheng is not interested in the supreme status and rarely asks questions.

But because of his good relationship with King Yongding, he still knows a little about Li Chenggu.

Prince Cheng turned his back to Li Chenggu, and then he slowly turned around: "General Li is still in high spirits as before."

In the past, this was what he envied Li Chenggu the most. No matter how tense the battlefield was, Li Chenggu was always in high spirits, as if he would never run out of energy.

But he was different, even if he didn't exercise too much, he was sick and lifeless.

"I don't know why Prince Cheng appeared in such a remote town?"

Li Chenggu asked his own question without any concealment, this is what he was curious about.

Due to poor health, Prince Cheng seldom goes out, let alone Jinling County, which is some distance away from the capital.

Now that King Yongding is in charge, he should let Prince Cheng take good care of his body.

"I've been living in seclusion for so many years, have you ever thought about going back?"

Prince Cheng avoided Li Chenggu's question, but instead asked his own.

"Why does the prince need to ask so many times? Since what happened back then has already happened, there is no need for me to go back."

"Xu Hua framed you back then, and the emperor didn't know about it."

"But what happened after that? Even if he knew, he didn't do anything wrong?"

Li Chenggu asked back, as if he didn't look calm like usual.

That's right, what chills him the most is that King Yongding knows that he was framed by Xu Hua and remains indifferent.

In the end, King Yongding was provoked by Xu Hua, not even as good as Prince Cheng's trust in him, so what's the need for him to stay there?

King Cheng sighed, King Yongding was suspicious, sometimes he felt that he was really lucky to be able to stay by his side for so long.

Li Chenggu's case is indeed a problem with King Yongding's own trust. In fact, in his opinion, Xu Hua is the most dangerous one. Even King Yongding's health has become worse in recent years. He also feels that Xu Hua is among them. However, King Yongding firmly believed in Xu Hua.

"This king has investigated your life in recent years. You and your wife are living a good life."

"We are living a very good life, and our children are very happy. I don't want to get involved in the affairs of the court anymore."

Li Chenggu turned his eyes away, they should not know about Li Xiner's matter, after all, it was more than ten years ago, and it was not so easy for them to investigate.

If possible, he hoped that Li Xin'er could also spend his life safely among the people.

Prince Cheng asked: "If the emperor still needs your help, will you go back?"

Li Chenggu was silent for a moment before speaking: "Xu Hua is still hostile to me now, he is searching for my news everywhere to target me, I will not show mercy to him."

"Alright, eradicating Xu Hua is also helping the emperor."

"Consider it as the last thing I do for the emperor."

Prince Cheng glanced at Li Chenggu, even though he had not been in court for many years, he was still thinking of the emperor.

He revealed his real purpose for coming out: "This king came out this time, in fact, to find someone."

"Looking for someone?"

Li Chenggu's heart skipped a beat, did he come here for Li Xin'er?

"Yes, the emperor has no heirs for many years. In recent years, the dragon's health has been poor, and this king's health is not good. It's time to find a successor. Many years ago, a princess was lost in the palace and she was living among the people. Can you find it?"

Li Chenggu frowned. He didn't expect that they were already thinking about what happened next. As for the princess, it had nothing to do with him, and Li Xin'er's identity... Should he tell the emperor?
"General Li, this king knows that you are still loyal to the emperor, so he chose to tell you about this matter. I hope that you can still contribute to the country when you are needed."

"I also hope that the prince will hide my whereabouts."

"Naturally, this king will not tell anyone that he has seen you here."

Lord Cheng coughed a few times, and the guards next to him immediately came forward to help him: "I have been here for many days, but I haven't found the person I'm looking for. It's probably because I'm not here anymore. I'll return to Beijing tomorrow to avoid attracting attention." Doubtful."

"My lord, safe journey."
