Chapter 79 Misunderstanding

In the evening, the sky was already dim. In the distant sky, the setting sun shone red with the red rays of sunset, dyeing the vast water of Honghu Lake red, and also putting down a robe for Jiangling City, like a gentle and quiet woman waiting to marry.

Jiangling City was the capital of Ying of the ancient Chu. Since ancient times, it has been a key to the central and southern key, a fortress in the north and south, and a place that must be fought for by military strategists. Xiao Xian also established himself here and only then did he have the capital to become emperor in the dynasty and compete for the world.

However, since the Tang Dynasty entered the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty established its capital in Guanzhong, and used Guanzhong as the basis to emphasize Luoyang, Taiyuan, Yangzhou and other places. However, they intentionally or unintentionally forgot Jiangling, the main Jiangling, the main general in Lingnan, even in military affairs. The title of Jiangling's military and political chief was not as good as Yang before, and was decorated with a "big" Zi, just a bare governor of Jingzhou.

But this is true that Jiangling became more and more quiet and peaceful, and it seemed less eye-catching among more than 300 states in the world.

Li Ke was in this seemingly quiet Jiangling City, standing in the side courtyard of the Jingzhou Governor's Office, feeling the lake breeze and looking at the setting sun in the sky, there was still this slight shock in his heart.

It was hard for him to imagine that he had seen him in Chang'an before, and this time he saved his life was Wu Meiniang, the Empress Wu Zhou who would kill him in the future. The shock that Wu Meiniang brought to Li Ke was far more than that of Xiao Yuexian when she revealed her identity.

Fortunately, Wu Meiniang was still young at this time, she was just a girl who was ignorant of the world, and she was not as cruel and powerful as decades later. Li Ke didn't have to worry about it.

For Li Ke, Wu Meiniang is more surprised and curious now, and has no other concerns. After all, although he has escaped from the hands of the remnants of the remnants of the remnants of the Liang Dynasty, he is still in danger and cannot be separated. His first priority is to try to return to Yangzhou safely.

"Mr. Li fell into the water for a long time in the morning, and the cold air had not yet disappeared. The doctor specially asked the master to be careful and not to get cold again. Why did he still blow the wind in the yard?"

Li Ke was thinking about how to avoid the powerful remnants of the remnants of Liang in Jiangling alone. When he returned to Yangzhou, Wu Meiniang's voice came from his ears.

Li Ke heard Wu Meiniang's voice in his ears, looked back at Wu Meiniang, and smiled and replied, "My mother is too worried. I am a martial arts practitioner. My body is still strong, and it is okay to blow some wind. However, if you stay in the house all day, you will be depressed."

Wu Meiniang has seen Li Ke's skills with his own eyes. In the night, he can even open a strong bow and shoot a ribbon with a lantern three feet away. This martial art is rare even among the elite Chang'an Imperial Guards. His body is naturally strong and not comparable to ordinary teenagers of his age.

Wu Meiniang said: "Young master has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. I guess his foundation is different from ordinary people. Since you feel bored, it is also good to come out to ventilate. But don't be greedy for coldness and get cold, so you can save yourself."

Li Ke heard Wu Meiniang's concern and bowed his hand and thanked him: "Thank you for your concern. I have a sense of responsibility. Today, I am the kindness of saving you from me. If you have the opportunity in the future, I will repay you with great rewards."

Wu Meiniang stood in front of Li Ke, looking at Li Ke's clothes, but she was still serious and confident, and said with a smile: "When I was in Chang'an, you helped me, and I felt it in my heart. Now that you have bad luck, I should help you again. I have never thought about giving you a good reward. But it is better for you to have such ambitions at the moment, and you are better than those mediocre people who are willing to waste their time and only sigh for days."

Bad luck?

After hearing Wu Meiniang's words, Li Ke seemed to be comforting him and persuaded him to be motivated. He was a little stunned for a moment. He didn't know why Wu Meiniang said this, so he asked curiously: "I will meet Xiaoniang for only one day, and I did not mention it in my words. How did Xiaoniang know that I was not lucky?"

What Li Ke asked was originally intended to ask Wu Meiniang why he said this, but he felt that he had bad luck in recent times, but Wu Meiniang had already preconceived ideas. Li Ke's words came to Wu Meiniang's ears, but Wu Meiniang only thought that Li Ke had already admitted that he had bad luck, but he just didn't know where Wu Meiniang knew.

Wu Meiniang said that Li Ke’s luck was not good, so she had her own guess. In the sixth year of Zhenguan, Wu Meiniang had met Li Ke in Chang'an. At that time, Li Ke was furious and angry, and was following the entourage. He could even compete with the Changsun brothers in front of him. Naturally, he was a child of a powerful family.

But now, just over a year later, Li Ke has fallen from Chang'an to this point. His original dress of brocade clothes has also been replaced with coarse cloth clothes, and the followers behind him have disappeared. If it weren't for the bad luck, how could this be?

However, although Wu Meiniang was so sensible in her heart, she also deeply agreed with her own guess. However, in front of Li Ke, she was worried that Li Ke was a little angry. If she admitted her frankly, she might not be able to bear it. So she said politely: "I'm just guessing randomly. The young master was originally in Chang'an, but now he appears alone in Jiangling. I think it's because of the change in the mansion, so it's like this."

After hearing Wu Meiniang's words, Li Ke realized that no wonder Wu Meiniang had such a word, it turned out to be like this.

However, Li Ke was happy to accept Wu Meiniang's words and was unwilling to refute them.

Wu Meiniang treated him as a down-and-out powerful and powerful child, which saved a lot of trouble and avoided other rumors, which made those who were interested to know his whereabouts.

So Li Ke also followed Wu Meiniang's words and responded: "I did have a sudden change in my house a few days ago, and I made my mother laugh."

Wu Meiniang heard this and hurriedly said, "Why did the young master say this? You are young and suddenly have a huge change. It is not easy to have such an open-minded mind. But you don't have to be too sad. Your master is good at martial arts. Now the northwest border is not yet flat, and the court is working at the right time. If you are determined, you can go to the northwest to join the army. After you make a fortune, you will have a day to make a fortune."

Wu Meiniang is smart and the daughter of a warrior. She is from a noble family and has a noble family. Her vision is naturally not comparable to ordinary women. Therefore, Li Ke was not surprised to say this from her.

Li Ke said: "What my mother said is so true, and I have the same intention."

Wu Meiniang smiled and said, "It's good that the young master has such a plan. I have mentioned the young master's affairs to my mother. If the young master does not abandon him, he can stay in the mansion for a while and make other plans after he is well."

Li Ke said: "If this can be done, it will be the best, but I just have to go to the house."

Wu Meiniang waved her hand and smiled, "It's okay. My father is the governor of Jingzhou and a military minister. She likes to support her younger generations the most. If the young master is interested, I can also recommend the young master to my father."

Wu Meiniang's words were originally kind, but after hearing her words, Li Ke quickly shook his head.

Wu Meiniang was not a court official and could not recognize Li Ke, but Wu Shiqiu was an important official and had met Li Ke several times in the court, so he knew Li Ke. If Wu Shiqiu saw Li Ke, he would naturally recognize him.

Li Ke is the king and the warrior is the minister. If it were usual, Li Ke would not be afraid that the warrior would recognize him. However, now Li Ke is in trouble, and the warrior is unknown in the court. If the warrior is close to the prince and asks him to know that Li Ke is here, wouldn’t Li Ke seek death?
