Chapter 872: Only You Can Save the Li Dynasty
Liu Zheng checked into the Honglu Temple, and only then did Min Weizhong bid him farewell and leave.
At this point, Liu Zheng took a deep breath, shook his head, and tried hard to calm his mind.
"Young Master, I fear there are many people lying in ambush here!"
Pei Qianyun reminded him from Liu Zheng's side.
Liu Zheng laughed in spite of himself: "Wherever your Young Master goes, isn't he the focus of people's attention? Fortunately, I damaged my own reputation this time, so those of the Southern Faction only feel pure resentment toward me; otherwise, we would have encountered at least several assassination attempts by now!"
Just kidding.
This is the Li Dynasty, someone else's territory, not Longyan.
Therefore.
Sometimes, self-deprecation is also a Method to avoid being targeted by others.
Pei Qianyun recalled the time he was abducted by those barbarians in Liaodong, his whole body shuddered, and he replied earnestly: "Young Master's lesson is correct!"
The guest room arranged for Liu Zheng by the Honglu Temple was of a high standard.
:
Pei Qianyun curled his lips, thinking to himself that even if there were a few assassination attempts, so what? His hands had been itching lately, and he wanted to fight in all directions.
Liu Zheng still offered a reminder: "Qianyun, people have the Human Way, and ghosts have the ghost way; never be too overconfident. These people, if they want to kill, will surely stop at nothing."
News of Zhang Yuzhen going into labor reached here.
"What?"
Liu Zheng was thinking about everything he had just discussed with Min Weizhong; he did not know if this old fox would do as he had suggested.
Who would have thought that at this very moment.
According to the due date, wasn't there still half a month left?
Liu Zheng remembered that in history, this son of Zhang Yuzhen was not born a day premature.
Liu Zheng shuddered, his face full of disbelief.
Going into labor?
This Southerner Party, seeing that Min Weizhong had returned and fearing the urgent situation, must have certainly provided some degree of induced labor! They now desperately needed the child in Zhang Yuzhen's womb to resist the returning, aggressive Min Weizhong and the Westerner Party!
Thinking of this, he could not help but smile bitterly.
My god!
Following that, Liu Zheng realized.
A light knocking sound came from outside the door.
Liu Zheng opened the door in surprise, not expecting a fragrant breeze to rush toward him; it was Li Xuanya, disguised.
It seemed he had still underestimated the bottom line of these Southerners and the intensity of the internal struggles within the Li Dynasty.
At this moment.
"Young Master, is the Queen in danger?"
Li Xuanya asked with sobs.
"What are you doing"
This time, Liu Zheng did not refuse her throwing herself into his arms, because her face was covered in tears, and she clearly had a heart full of worries with no one to tell. At this moment, it seemed he had become the only person she could trust; how could Liu Zheng refuse her affection?
"Oh, Young Master, Xuanya is truly conflicted. In my heart, I think it would be best if that vixen died in childbirth, but I also feel sorry for my father the King, hoping he could have an heir. Now the palace is in chaos, and I don't want to stay there at all!"
Li Xuanya sighed.
Liu Zheng could not help but sigh. In fact, he really wanted to tell Li Xuanya that Queen Inhyeon was the final winner; history proved that only such naturally kind people could make it to the end. But he had no proof, so he could only smile: "The palace is so lively, and you still have time to come out?"
Li Xuanya enjoyed the scent in Liu Zheng's arms and seemed to feel the genuine concern Liu Zheng had for her, which made her feel wonderful inside. She followed up with a soft hum: "Why would I go there to see that vixen give birth? I heard she's having a difficult labor!"
In this world, how could there be such a kind-hearted girl?
Along this journey, Liu Zheng had too many things to do and had no time to truly understand this girl. Today he discovered that she was not only beautiful but also simple and kind; in terms of kindness, she had completely inherited it from her mother.
Liu Zheng's heart could not help but stir.
The conflicted yet gentle expression on Li Xuanya's face was incredibly moving.
"Since the palace is in chaos, why don't we go out for a walk?"
Liu Zheng chuckled.
He could not help but use his hand to tuck back Li Xuanya's hair, laughing: "Everything will be alright."
Li Xuanya gave a sweet "mm."
It was naturally the most prosperous city in the Li Dynasty; even though it was getting late, the streets were still bustling. Despite the tight military situation at the border, it seemed to have had no impact on the common people, who were still enjoying life in the capital.
This was Li Xuanya's first time "strolling the streets" with Liu Zheng, so her excitement went without saying.
Upon hearing this, Li Xuanya was naturally extremely excited. The two prepared slightly and walked out of the Honglu Temple.
Hancheng.
It eventually turned into true admiration, but even when she tried every method to throw herself at him, he turned a blind eye to her.
Until today.
All along, her feelings for Liu Zheng had been very subtle.
From the initial submission and compromise to the later step-by-step worship and reverence.
She knew that Liu Zheng had her in his heart.
Otherwise, why would he send her back to Hancheng?
She seemed to have finally gained the favor of this peerless man; how could her heart not be filled with joy?
It seemed that the heavy difficulties and the gloom in her heart upon returning to the Li Dynasty had all vanished at this moment.
He was a man who did great things.
Walking beside Liu Zheng, Li Xuanya felt incredibly sweet in her heart with many thoughts. Seeing the busy, peaceful, and contented common people, she could not help but say: "If only there were fewer struggles between people, and it could always be like this..."
It was just that this man never expressed his romantic feelings too fervently.
Hmm.
Listen!
The young master's words are truly extraordinary!
Along the way, Liu Zheng had also been carefully observing the customs of the Li Dynasty, and upon hearing this, he couldn't help but chuckle: "Struggle is actually not a bad thing; only struggle that keeps one standing still or causes the era to regress is unnecessary."
Li Xuanya's delicate body trembled, her eyes filled with infatuation.
That is indeed the case.
Within this Li Dynasty, the Westerner Party and the Southern Faction have been struggling against each other for so many years, yet after all that fighting, there are no new tricks. In some policies, they have even been constantly turning back the clock of history, which is why the Li Dynasty has been repeatedly invaded, attacked, and humiliated by the Wa nation year after year.
The big picture!
Thinking in her heart.
Liu Zheng glanced at her, and suddenly, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
He suddenly.
"Does the young master have any profound insights?"
Li Xuanya asked suddenly.
But it is not a very mature idea.
"What is wrong, young master? Did Xuanya say something wrong?"
There is one.
A bold one.
"What?"
Li Xuanya's expression changed drastically, her whole body stiffening.
Li Xuanya was startled by Liu Zheng's gaze and asked timidly.
Liu Zheng shook his head with a chuckle: "Xuanya, have you ever thought about becoming the queen of your Li Dynasty?"
Li Xuanya still had not reacted, standing there in a daze.
Save the Li Dynasty?
Liu Zheng nodded earnestly: "I believe that only you can truly save the Li Dynasty. Are you willing?"
"Wh, what?"
Is the Li Dynasty still worth saving?
The key is
The one to save the Li Dynasty can only be herself?
How is that supposed to be said
