Yuan Chengfan advised Li Ke to evacuate Xuyi with good intentions, but he was not in his position and did not plan his politics; he did not know the difficulties if he did not plan his politics. Yuan Chengfan was a minister, but how could he know Li Ke's current situation? Li Ke is already in a difficult position now.

Li Ke was appointed as the commander-in-chief of Yangzhou, and gave the imperial court axe. He transferred local government troops to Chuzhou to control the water. He also wrote a letter to Li Shimin, asking for the transfer of grain from Shanyang Cang Cang to provide disaster relief. He had already used too many privileges. If he could not protect Huainan of the Tang Dynasty granary, he would be a crime, let alone asking him to evacuate first?

Li Ke looked at Yuan Chengfan, perhaps because he had made up his mind, there was not much panic on his face, and he asked with a deep face: "Do Yuan Qing think I can still retreat? Even if I retreat, where can I retreat? Yangzhou, Jiangnan, or Chang'an?"

Li Ke was determined to be on the throne and wanted to fight for the throne. How could he not value the people's expectations? If Li Ke left here, his people's expectations in Huainan would be extremely poor. By then, this matter was reported to the palace and was criticized by others, and Li Ke would have completely bid farewell to the dispute over the throne.

However, Yuan Chengfan didn't know what Li Ke thought. Yuan Chengfan regarded himself as Li Ke's disciple, so he said: "The so-called son of a thousand gold medal does not sit in the Chutang. His highness is in charge of the people from all over Huainan. How can he be careful and careful?"

Li Ke shook his head and said, "Yuan Qing's words are wrong. Today's situation has come to an end. Any one of you can retreat, but I cannot retreat, and there is no room for retreat."

Yuan Chengfan looked at Li Ke's appearance and felt anxious. He thought that Li Ke was young and had to stay in this Xuyi City, which was already in turmoil for a moment.

Seeing Li Ke stubbornly, Yuan Chengfan was very anxious and quickly advised: "Your Highness is noble and different from ordinary people. Don't regret it for the sake of this moment."

Li Ke said decisively: "Yuan Qing doesn't need to persuade him anymore. My king has decided that the great flood in Huainan and the safety of millions of people in the Tang Dynasty is on the line. As a prince, I am the great governor who is in charge of the holy will, how can I retreat? I vow to live and die with Huainan."

Vow to live and die with Huainan!

At this time, Xiao Yuexian was standing outside the door with tea. Li Kezhi's words came into Xiao Yuexian's ears standing outside the door, and Xiao Yuexian's heart trembled suddenly.

Li Ke's words were like a giant tripod, which landed on the ground and shook her heart.

Facing great dangers but not being confused, facing great dangers but not retreating, Li Ke's current demeanor is much better than her brothers who fled in Jiangling and who were trapped in Jiangling.

At this moment, Xiao Yuexian seemed to understand something: even if his father, Xiao Xian, survived and survived the siege of Jiangling, and when the family, country and the world were passed to Li Ke and his generation, none of the princes of Liang would be Li Ke's opponents, and it was almost certain that Xiao Liang destroyed the country.

In an instant, the two had different positions. Although they were mortal enemies, Xiao Yuexian also admired Li Ke a little more.

"Your Highness, Yuan is engaged, please use tea." When Li Ke was talking to Yuan Chengfan, Xiao Yuexian also entered the house, carried the tea with a wooden plate, and said to the two people in the side hall.

When Li Ke saw Xiao Yuexian enter, he took the tea bowl handed by Xiao Yuexian and asked, "It's still early, why don't you rest in the inner room and come out to work hard, but I have disturbed your sleepiness?"

Xiao Yuexian replied, "It's not so, but it's late at night. I guess all the maids who served in the mansion have rested. Yuan is engaged in a special trip to visit His Highness. If no one serves tea, wouldn't it be a waste of etiquette?"

"Although this is great, thank you for your hard work." Li Ke gently patted Xiao Yuexian's hand and said softly.

Xiao Yuexian smiled and said, "I deserve my identity, Your Highness, be polite."

Xiao Yuexian said, picking up a tea bowl and putting it to Yuan Chengfan's hand, and pouring a full cup.

Although Xiao Yuexian is just a maid in this palace, with no official or no rank, since she is a person around Li Ke, who dares to underestimate her? Not to mention that Yuan Chengfan, the Shui Cao, was engaged in it, even the governor of Yangzhou, He Xiu, needs to give her three points.

Yuan Chengfan took the tea poured by Xiao Yuexian, stood up and thanked, "Miss I'm sorry."

Xiao Yuexian said: "Yuan is a close minister of Your Highness. Your Highness manages water. He also relies on Yuan to engage in it. Why should Yuan be exposed to the situation?"

After Xiao Yuexian finished speaking, he put down the teapot in his hand and frowned slightly at the willow eyebrows and asked Li Ke: "Your Highness, I just heard your highness's words outside the door. The Huai Dike is about to be broken. Your Highness wants to live and die with Huainan, but is it true?"

Li Ke asked, "You have heard what I and Yuan are doing just now?"

Xiao Yuexian replied: "I didn't mean to hear it, but I happened to be standing outside the hall and heard it accidentally. I hope Your Highness will forgive me."

Li Ke waved his hand and said, "It's okay, this matter is not a secret. I'm afraid that the entire Xuyi City will know it until dawn."

Xiao Yuexian looked uneasy and asked worriedly: "Can the water in Huainan have collapsed to such a level?"

Li Ke nodded and said, "I transferred my mansion into Huaihe River and built a river embankment. Although the water conditions in Huainan have gradually stabilized, the Bian River suddenly burst and poured into Sishui River. I am afraid that the newly built Huaihe River embankment will not last long. After a while, I will order the Prince's Mansion Guard to lead you, Dan'er and other women back to Yangzhou. You don't have to worry."

Li Ke was not sure what the Huai River was like this time, it was really dangerous, and Xiao Yuexian and Dan'er and other female relatives couldn't help here. Li Ke was concerned about their safety, so he naturally arranged someone to send them back to Yangzhou.

When Xiao Yuexian heard Li Ke's words, he suddenly became anxious. Now the Huai River is in danger and the people in Xuyi are in chaos. It is the time when they take advantage of the chaos and fishing. If she was sent back to Yangzhou by Li Ke, wouldn't she have missed the opportunity?

Xiao Yuexian said to Li Ke: "Your Highness, I don't want to leave."

Li Ke was a little surprised when he heard Xiao Yuexian's words, but then he felt a little worried.

Xiao Yuexian is different from other female relatives in his mansion, and her appearance always means a bit coincidental.

Moreover, because Xiao Yuexian is a person around Li Ke, Wang Xuance also personally investigated Xiao Yuexian's life experience, but there was no result.

Xiao Yuexian's past was like a blank piece of mystery, which seemed pure and flawless, but no one knew what it was written in it. But Xiao Yuexian was both good in appearance and talent. Such a person should never have been an unknown person before.

There will be such a result, and there is only one explanation, that is, someone deliberately concealed something.

Li Ke said to Xiao Yuexian: "If the Huai River breaks the dam, half of Huainan will turn into a marsh country by then. If you stay in Xuyi City, you may have life worries. Listen to my words, you should go back to Yangzhou for a while."

When Xiao Yuexian heard this, he insisted: "If Your Highness is here, I am worried about Your Highness's safety every day, how can I sit in Yangzhou? I am willing to be by Your Highness's side."

Li Ke looked at Xiao Yuexian's resolute look, and although he felt worried, he was still a little indescribable.

Li Ke said: "Why are you doing this?"
