We agreed that you, a weak strategist, would fight against three heroes by yourself?

Liu San did leave alone. He went to the toilet.

Several people on patrol couldn't help but wonder, could this man be an assassin?

Liu San pretended to be calm and said as if nothing was wrong: "Back to Prime Minister, I went to the toilet and will be back with everyone soon."

Xi Yu continued to ask: "Did you get close to Tuobayu's room?"

When Liu San heard this, he shook his head suddenly, widened his eyes and said, "There is absolutely no such thing."

Xi Yu frowned and waved his hand, asking a few soldiers to investigate further.

Then, he left Liu San alone.

After several soldiers took the order and left, Xi Yu looked at Liu San with a gloomy face and said coldly: "Liu San, come with me to a free room."

Liu San was worried, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow Xi Yu into the room.

After entering the room, Xi Yu turned around, stared at Liu San closely, and said in a stern tone: "Liu San, I hope you tell the truth, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences. You have to think clearly."

Liu San stood there, his eyes beginning to become wandering.

His face gradually turned pale, and his hands trembled slightly unconsciously.

As Xi Yu finished speaking, his breathing became more rapid.

Fine beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead. The sweat was like broken beads, sliding down his cheeks one after another and dripping on the ground.

His lips were trembling slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but something seemed to be blocking his throat, and he couldn't spit out a word.

At this moment, Liu San completely lost his previous composure and fell into an extreme panic.

Xi Yu's face was as dark as water and he said coldly: "Liu San, if you don't tell the truth again, you will bear the consequences!"

Liu San's body shook violently, big beads of sweat rolled down his face, and his face became as pale as paper. Finally, his legs softened, he knelt down with a plop, and said with a cry: "Master Prime Minister, I... To be honest, I did peek at Tuobayu taking a bath. I was passing by by accident. Really I can’t bear it anymore.”

After hearing this, Xi Yu's face turned livid with anger, a sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of disgust and anger.

"Hmph, I just said that you look unnatural, and there is indeed something wrong with you. I didn't expect it to be such a shameful thing."

Liu San knelt and moved forward a few steps, hugged Xi Yu's leg, and cried with tears in his eyes: "Prime Minister, please spare my life. Sir, I know I was wrong. Please spare me this time." "

Xi Yu was furious, with blazing anger burning in his eyes.

He grabbed Liu San's neck and said through gritted teeth: "A scum like you will never be forgiven!"

Liu San's eyes widened in horror, and he grasped Xi Yu's hand in vain with both hands, but gradually lost strength and soon collapsed and lost his breath.

Xi Yu let go of his hand, took a deep breath, calmed down, and then walked out slowly.

As soon as I went out, I saw Tuobayu walking out gracefully.

Tuobayu's wet long hair was seen hanging around casually, as smooth and silky as a few strands of hair stuck to her fair cheeks, adding a bit of charm.

Her skin was slightly flushed by the steam, as delicate and beautiful as a blooming peach blossom.

She wore a pure white robe with a light blue ribbon tied around her waist, which perfectly outlined her slender waist.

Her eyes were as bright as stars, looking at Xi Yu with a hint of laziness and confusion.

Xi Yu quickly stepped forward, lowered his head slightly, and said with a serious face: "Miss Tuoba, the murderer has been caught and I have dealt with him."

Tuobayu was stunned for a moment, then a look of gratitude appeared on her face, and she said softly: "Prime Minister, thank you. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what to do." Her eyes were full of sincerity and tenderness.

Xi Yu hurriedly found the patrolling soldiers.

With a gloomy look on his face and a hint of coldness in his eyes, he said, "No need to look any further. Liu San has admitted that he is an assassin and has been dealt with by me."

The soldiers were all shocked when they heard this. One of the soldiers frowned and looked at Xi Yu suspiciously.

Afterwards, Xiyu left.

A soldier muttered in a low voice: "Why...why does this matter feel like it's not that simple?"

Another soldier also echoed: "Yeah, I always feel a little strange."

At this time, an older soldier waved his hand and said in a low voice: "Since the Prime Minister has said so, we'd better leave it alone to avoid getting into unnecessary trouble."

After hearing this, the other soldiers, although they still had doubts in their hearts, nodded in agreement, and then dispersed.

Xi Yu, on the other hand, walked towards his room without looking back. His figure looked a little lonely and lonely in the dim light.

Early the next morning, sunlight filtered in through the cracks in the tent.

Lu Zhe stepped into Tuoba Tianlong's tent.

I saw Tuoba Tianlong sitting there, holding a piece of fragrant roast mutton in one hand and eating with his mouth full of oil.

When Tuoba Tianlong saw Lu Zhe coming in, he quickly put down the mutton in his hand and grinned: "Haha, Lu Zhe, come on, come on, let's eat roast mutton together!"

His face was full of enthusiasm, and there were still some oil stains on the corners of his mouth.

Lu Zhe smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "Thank you, Chief Tuoba, I have already eaten."

His expression was calm and gentle, and there was a trace of calmness in his eyes.

Tuoba Tianlong frowned and asked Lu Zhe, "Why did you come to see me?"

Lu Zhe quickly replied: "When we saw Tuoba Road that day, didn't Xi Yu's soldiers arrive? I think there must be something going on here. I hope you can ask, we Xianbei don't want to offend Xi Yu. "

Tuoba Tianlong nodded, feeling that what Lu Zhe said made sense, and responded with a serious expression: "It is true, I will go and ask clearly."

Tuoba Tianlong came to Tuoba Lu with a gloomy face, stared at him sharply, and asked in a stern tone: "Tell me quickly, what did Xi Yu's soldier write in the letter?"

Tuoba Lu gritted his teeth, turned away and remained silent.

When Tuoba Tianlong saw this, he became furious and shouted: "You won't tell me? Okay, come on, hit me!"

Several strong men immediately stepped forward and punched and kicked Tuoba Lu.

Tuoba Lu was beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, but he still bit his lips tightly, his eyes were firm, and he looked like he would rather die than surrender, and he murmured: "I will never say that..."

Tuoba Tianlong quickly found Lu Zhe with an irritated look on his face, frowned and said, "That Tuoba Lu is so stubborn, no matter how hard he is beaten, he refuses to say a word."

Lu Zhe touched his chin thoughtfully, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "In this case, it is better for us to send someone to ask Xi Yu and find out directly what is going on. It is worse than worrying here." Tuoba Tianlong listened. Finally, his eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly: "Well, what you said makes sense."

He narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a while, and then said: "Then who is the right person to send?"

Lu Zhe thought for a while, then suddenly his eyes lit up and he said, "It's better to send Jin Gushun. He is smart and should be able to handle this matter."

Tuoba Tianlong nodded, he knew Jin Gushun.

"Okay, let Jin Gushun go."

Therefore, Tuoba Tianlong immediately sent people to find Jin Gushun.

After a while, a tall man with a resolute face walked in.

Tuoba Tianlong looked at him and said solemnly: "Jin Gushun, there is an important task for you now. You should go to Youzhou immediately to ask Xi Yu what happened."

Jin Gushun responded without hesitation: "Yes!" His eyes were firm, revealing a sense of determination.

Tuoba Tianlong patted him on the shoulder and said: "Be careful along the way, go and come back quickly."

Jin Gushun nodded, turned and left.

On this day, Xi Yu paced back and forth in the mansion with a gloomy face, and said to the patrolling soldiers: "Intensify the patrols in the mansion. Many people knew about the assassin last night."

The soldier nodded in agreement.

Xi Yu stopped, his eyes flashed with a cunning light, and he gritted his teeth and said, "No, I have to find a way to cover up the past. I can't let this matter affect me."

He pondered for a moment, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

Yes, make up a lie. Let’s just say that the reason why Liu San wanted to assassinate Tuobayu was actually to target me, because he had a perverted heart and thought that Liu San couldn’t bear to see me in a high position.

Afterwards, Xi Yu immediately ordered his subordinates to spread the news around the house.

He stood there with a trace of pride in his eyes, as if the lie had been flawless.

After several ladies learned that Tuobayu almost met an assassin last night, they hurried to Tuobayu's room together.

As soon as he entered the door, Sun Shangxiang's face was full of concern and his eyes were full of worry. He quickly stepped forward and took Tuoyu Yu's hand, and said softly: "Tuobayu, I heard that you almost encountered an assassin last night, but you scared us!"

Tuobayu was moved when he saw her caring so much for him, and smiled and said, "I'm fine, don't worry."

Xi Shi also came forward, her face also full of anxiety.

"Yes, Tuobayu, you must be good and don't scare us."

Tuobayu nodded with a smile and said, "Don't worry."

Tuobayu felt the sincere care of the ladies, her heart felt warm, and she smiled brightly.

"Thank you sisters-in-law for your concern. I feel really happy."

At this time, Tuobayu's eyes were shining with joy, and his face was filled with a happy smile.

Xi Yu stood in the courtyard, his brows slightly furrowed, his face gloomy, and he was thinking to himself.

He murmured to himself: "It's been so many days since Xiao Cui's incident, Tuoba Lu should have taken some action."

When he said this, there was a hint of impatience and severity in his eyes.

He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said, "Huh, if he dares not to come, I won't be polite!"

At this time, his face was full of ruthlessness, as if as long as Tuoba Lu didn't come, he would immediately take thunderous measures.

On this day, Ouyang Linlin hurriedly came to Xi Yu, her delicate face full of tangle and confusion.

She eagerly pulled Xi Yu's sleeve and said with an anxious look: "Husband, I had a dream last night. It was really strange. I was very upset all the time, so I came to see you quickly."

Xi Yu looked at Ouyang Linlin's appearance and quickly held her hand.

"Linlin, don't worry, tell me slowly, what's going on?"

Ouyang Linlin took a deep breath, calmed down, and then said slowly: "I dreamed of a person who was glowing with golden light, and there were strange scenes around him. After I woke up, I always felt that this dream was very unusual. Then somehow, I suddenly remembered the allusion of Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty." As she spoke, her eyes shone with thought.

After hearing this, Xi Yu couldn't help but frown, looked at Ouyang Linlin with a puzzled face, and asked softly: "The allusion of Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty?"

Ouyang Linlin nodded and continued: "Yes, Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty also dreamed of a person, and then someone said it was Buddha. After that, he sent people to seek scriptures, because those scriptures were carried on white horses. So I built the White Horse Temple in Luoyang. After I dreamed about this, I kept thinking, does it have any profound meaning? "

As she spoke, her face was full of confusion and confusion.

Xi Yu fell into deep thought, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

After a while, he slowly said: "Linlin, don't think too much about it, maybe it's just a coincidence."

Ouyang Linlin nodded slightly, biting her lips, her brows still furrowed tightly, as if she was still struggling with this strange dream.

After Ouyang Linlin heard Xi Yu's analysis, she looked at him firmly.

"Husband, maybe the Buddha meant for me to go to the Kushan Kingdom."

When Xi Yu heard this, he couldn't help but frown slightly. He knew that the Guishan Kingdom was what would later become India.

But the journey was long and full of unknown risks, so he looked at Ouyang Linlin worriedly and said, "Linlin, are you too impulsive? This is just a dream, and we can't confirm whether this is the will of the Buddha.

After hearing this, Ouyang Linlin said softly: "Husband, I understand your worries, but I think even if this is just a dream, it doesn't matter if you go to Guishuang Country."

Xi Yu gently held Ouyang Linlin's hand and said, "Linlin, I know you want to go to Guishang Country, but I really don't trust you to go alone. It's too far there, and I don't have time to accompany you." you."

Ouyang Linlin had tears in her eyes. She raised her head, looked at Xi Yu, and said, "Husband, I understand your worries, but I really want to go. I think this is the guidance given to me by the Buddha. I must go."

"Linlin, don't be so impulsive. This is just a dream, and it may not have any special meaning. Why do you have to go to Kushan Country?"

Ouyang Linlin was a little excited after hearing Xi Yu's words.

She said: "Xi Yu, you don't understand, this is very important to me. I have to go to Kushan Country to find the answer."

Seeing Ouyang Linlin's excitement, Xi Yu felt a little angry in his heart.

"Linlin, you are so stubborn! You are so desperate to go to Kushan Country. Have you ever considered my feelings?"

Ouyang Linlin finally couldn't help but shed tears after hearing Xi Yu's words.

"I know you're worried about me, but I really want to go. If you don't support me, I'll be very sad."

Xi Yu felt a little sad when he saw Ouyang Linlin's sad look.

"Linlin, it's not that I don't support you, it's just that I think this matter is too risky."

"Husband, I think this is what I have to do. If you really love me, you should support my decision."

Xi Yu frowned with a serious expression. He looked at Ouyang Linlin and said firmly: "Linlin, I don't agree with you going to the Kushan Kingdom. Your idea is so ridiculous, it's simply nonsense!"

Xi Yu looked at Ouyang Linlin's sad look and couldn't bear it, but he still insisted on his position.

Xi Yu looked at Ouyang Linlin's excitement and felt a little angry in his heart. He said: "Linlin, don't be so stubborn. You have to know that I am the head of the family and I have to consider the interests and safety of the entire family. If Every lady makes various demands to me like you, so how can I manage this family?"

Ouyang Linlin returned to the room angrily. Seeing her appearance, Xiaohong hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern: "Miss, what's wrong with you? Who made you angry?"

Ouyang Linlin bit her lip and told Xiaohong what happened.

Her brows were furrowed, her eyes were full of tears, and her voice was choked.

"Xiao Hong, do you think Xi Yu is going too far? How can he not understand my thoughts? I just want to go to Guishang Country to find some answers, but he firmly disagrees."

Xiaohong listened to Ouyang Linlin's words and comforted: "Miss, don't be angry. The general may also be worried about your safety, so he objects to your going to Guishang Kingdom. You can discuss it with the general again, maybe He will change his mind."

Ouyang Linlin felt a little better after hearing Xiaohong's words. She wiped her tears and said, "Xiao Hong, you are right. I can't give up just like this. I want to have a good talk with Xi Yu. I believe he will understand me."

Xiaohong nodded and said: "Miss, don't worry. I will always be by your side. No matter what happens, I will support you."

Ouyang Linlin glanced at Xiaohong gratefully.

"Thank you, Xiaohong. With you by my side, I feel much more at ease."

After saying that, Ouyang Linlin took a deep breath, adjusted her emotions, and then turned around to find Xi Yu.

Ouyang Linlin came to Xi Yu again, with a firm light shining in her eyes.

Xi Yu sat on the chair and rubbed his forehead, looking a little helpless.

Ouyang Linlin said softly: "Husband, I still want to talk to you about going to Kushan Country."

Xi Yu raised his head and looked at Ouyang Linlin, a hint of compromise flashed in his eyes.

"Since you insist so much, then go ahead."

Ouyang Linlin had an expression of surprise on her face, and her eyes instantly brightened.

"Really? Husband, you finally agreed!"

Xiyu nodded and said, "However, I hope you can wait a few more days until I marry Tuoba Yu before leaving."

Ouyang Linlin thought about it and felt that Xiyu's request was not excessive, so she happily agreed.

"Okay, husband, I will listen to you. I also hope that you can successfully marry Tuoba Yu."

Xiyu looked at Ouyang Linlin's happy expression and felt a little relieved in his heart. (End of this chapter)
