Datang's journey to death

Li Ke rubbed his forehead, looked at Li Yin and asked, "Tell me, what's going on."

Concubine Yang Shu killed the cat before because the cat hurt Li Yin, but this time Li Ke was very careful. He also knew that there was no vaccine in this era. If Li Yin was scratched and infected, it would basically be hopeless.But fortunately, the kitten is still young, and its range of activities is not large, but he never expected that even so, this cat would still make Li Yin uncomfortable.

Li Yin stood there apologetically and said, "Third Brother, I'm sorry, I just wanted to play with it, I don't know why it ran up the tree."

And then fell off the tree and died, didn't you?Li Ke looked at Li Min expressionlessly, he had grown up and knew to make excuses.

Nima, that's a cat. Is there a cat that can't climb trees?Have you ever seen a cat fall to its death from a tree?Even if the cat is still young, the trees in the courtyard of Ningyun Pavilion are not tall, the ones that are too tall have been cut down long ago!

Seeing that Li Ke didn't speak, Li Yin was also a little disturbed. He was indeed responsible for the death of the little milk cat, but he just hit the kitten with a stone when it fell from the tree. Thinking of that cat really fell to his death like that.

Li Ke realizes that he doesn't know Li Yin at all. Does he hate cats?If this was the case, at least he couldn't find Ojuku before moving out. Think about it, finding a Li Yin and killing one, even if those cats were not the one he was looking for, it would be too sinful.

What's more, if he finds Ojuku and is killed by Li Yin, Li Ke really has no place to cry.

"It's time for you to do your homework." Li Ke didn't say anything, but drove Li Yin back to his room to study.

Li Yin was quite anxious, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he carefully went back to his room to study, while Li Ke looked at Anping and asked the cat to be put away and said to find a place to bury it. After thinking about it, he said: " Find a good-looking box and put it in, and try to let it have a good birth in the next life."

After finishing speaking, he went back to his room. To be honest, he didn’t know why. He had seen many dead people, but now he couldn’t see the kitten’s body. After Li Ke returned to the room, he didn’t want to do anything. I just want to empty my mind and be in a daze.

As a result, after a while, when I looked up, I suddenly saw a small white head popping out from under the window, stretching its neck to look inside.

Pei Xuan originally came here secretly. In the past, Li Ke was supposed to be reading or practicing calligraphy in the yard outside at this time, and would not be in the room. Unexpectedly, Li Ke returned to the room in a daze today, and was arrested. one is right.

Pei Xuan was a little embarrassed at first, but he glanced and found that the little white cat was not in the room, so he boldly jumped in from the window and sat on the desk, licking his mouth at Li Ke.

Huh?Why is there no dried fish today?Pei Xuan looked at Li Ke with some doubts, and he knew that Li Ke was unhappy when he saw Li Ke's expression. After all, they had been together for so many years, and he had a good grasp of Li Ke's emotions.

It's just that Pei Xuan didn't understand at all, why Li Ke was unhappy?He and Li Chengqian didn't bother Li Ke in the past two days. Of course, the exact statement is that Li Chengqian didn't have time to make trouble for Li Ke at all, because Li Chengqian was busy learning about the situation of various ethnic minorities—of course he showed the appearance of learning. Under such circumstances, it would be difficult for him to meet Li Ke, let alone find fault.

Pei Xuan squatted there with his front paws blocking important parts, and stared at Li Ke eye to eye for a long time, feeling more and more certain that something was wrong with Li Ke today.

It took Li Ke a long time to react. After seeing the familiar figure, he didn't yell, but said a little tiredly: "You don't want to part with me, so come back to see me?"

Li Ke walked over and stretched out his hand to pet the kitten. Pei Xuan looked at his hand and hesitated for a moment. He knew the cat's character quite well. If it was it, it would definitely not avoid Li Ke's petting. , and may even send his head to rub against it.

However, every time Pei Xuan was touched by Li Ke, he felt very awkward. Back then, Li Ke rarely touched him.Awkwardness is awkwardness, in order not to be exposed, Pei Xuan would still let Li Ke touch two hands without moving. As a result, Li Ke's hand almost fell on him, and suddenly took it back.Pei Xuan looked up at Li Ke with some doubts, and found hesitation in Li Ke's eyes. This is really rare. Li Ke seldom hesitates in doing anything. He just does it when he decides. He will take care of any consequences by himself. He said, now he just pets the cat, why is he hesitating?

Li Ke sat down and looked at it, his eyes were focused and serious. At this time, Pei Xuan was sitting on the desk. The light of the setting sun dyed his whole body with a layer of golden yellow. That little face can't be completely hidden in the shadows, there is complete doubt in the blue eyes.

Maybe it doesn't know it's dead yet?Li Ke was thinking in his heart, and then he raised his hand and closed the window as if remembering something, and said, "Will the sun hurt you? Why are you so stupid, you don't even know how to protect yourself."

Pei Xuan cautiously looked at Li Ke talking to himself like a psychopath, and felt that something was wrong. Could it be that something is wrong with this cat?If that's the case, he's pretending to be a cat here... This is the rhythm that will be exposed every minute.

Pei Xuan didn't dare to move and looked at Li Ke, but Li Ke just sat there in a daze, Pei Xuan was too scared by him and didn't dare to do anything, his heart was broken, he just wanted to rub some dried fish.Just when he was thinking this way, Li Ke suddenly stood up and asked Lu Yang to bring some snacks, Pei Xuan's eyes lit up when he heard it.

Li Ke didn't let Lv Yang in, he was afraid that Lv Yang would be frightened when he saw it, after all, that kitten should have been buried in the ground by now, and now seeing such a cat again, Lv Yang would definitely be scared to death.

After Li Ke took the snack tray, he piled up all the dried fish in front of Pei Xuan and said softly, "Eat, you can go on your way after eating."

Pei Xuan, who was happily eating a piece of dried fish in his mouth, almost choked himself to death when he heard this sentence. Is he planning to destroy himself physically?Pei Xuan looked at Li Ke with some vigilance, and found that Li Ke was still watching him eat very gently, and felt a little puzzled, the dried fish was no longer delicious.

Pei Xuan didn't plan to eat after eating a few yuan, Li Ke looked at him silently and asked, "Are you sure you don't want to eat?"

Pei Xuan looked at him quietly without any reaction, Li Ke got up and opened the window and said, "Since this is the case, this is no longer a place for you to stay, let's go."

Pei Xuan didn't have time to think about what Li Ke was tossing about. He shook the cat on his body and looked at it carefully for a long while. He had to say that when Li Ke looked at him so tenderly, he had no resistance at all.

But it was time to go, but when Pei Xuan made up his mind to turn around, Li Ke stretched out his hand to hold him down, and then he was hugged.Pei Xuan looked up at Li Ke, and Li Ke said in surprise, "It's still warm."

Pei Xuan:? ? ? ? ?

Li Ke lowered his head and kissed the kitten's head. Pei Xuan didn't expect Li Ke to do this at all, and his whole face turned red in an instant—fortunately, it was covered by fur, otherwise he might be betrayed in minutes.

Li Ke didn't care how turbulent Pei Xuan was in his heart, after kissing him, he put him on the window sill and sighed: "Let's go."

Pei Xuan stumbled out with his head full of muddleheadedness, but accidentally got his legs knotted and fell off the window sill, making him dizzy.

Li Ke was taken aback, leaned out his body and looked at Pei Xuan with his tail between his legs, he didn't know where he ran all the way, thinking in his heart: It doesn't feel like a soul, it's so strange.

When Pei Xuan returned home, the heat on his face hadn't gone down. He didn't know whether he had run away or was frightened by Li Ke. He sat in the room beating for a long time before recovering, and then he became a little angry-Li Ke never I've never been so kind and gentle to him!

How could he be better than that cat?That cat just knows how to eat and play foolishly, he...he has provided Li Ke with a lot of help!

It was not until the next day that Pei Xuan learned from Li Chengqian why Li Ke was so abnormal, because the cat died.

Falling from a tree and dying, this kind of statement...Pei Xuan doesn't believe it at all, okay? !Only then did Pei Xuan realize that Li Ke probably regarded him as the soul of the dead cat?Tsk, I almost broke through by accident.

Pei Xuan felt a little pity, he couldn't go to Xiaoyu anymore in the future, Pei Xuan recalled Li Ke's every move yesterday, and felt that his appearance seemed quite sad, even though Li Ke didn't cry or show sadness Li Ke's eyes and tone showed it.However, Li Ke is a very pretended person, and what he shows in front of others is always the emotions that need to be shown.

Whether angry or sad, it was never real, only the lingering depression last night was his slightest betrayal of his true feelings.

Thinking of this, Pei Xuan felt that his mood was a bit complicated. Li Ke was so caring towards cats he hadn't been with for a long time, so why was he so cruel to himself?Where did he offend Li Ke?

"Hey, do you think Li Ke has been trying to kill that cat for a long time?"

"No." Pei Xuan was a little surprised at Li Chengqian's thoughts: "How could he have trouble with a cat?"

Li Chengqian sneered: "Who can say for sure, after all, I gave that cat as a gift."

"He's not that childish." Pei Xuan changed the subject after finishing speaking: "I heard that the hunt was postponed because the Supreme Emperor wanted to celebrate with the Lingyan Pavilion?"

"Yes, Xieli was captured, it's worth celebrating." Li Chengqian said this very flatly, which didn't match the meaning of his words.

But Pei Xuan also understood him, after all, he had already experienced it once, and he would definitely not be as excited as before, but Li Chengqian had to pretend to be excited.On this point, he, Pei Xuan and Li Ke all had a special common language. On the day of Li Yuan's banquet, it was rare for these three people to ridicule each other without meeting each other. Acting is not difficult, the difficult thing is to keep showing yourself in high spirits.

After finally getting through the banquet, Li Ke is also ready to pack up and go hunting with him. Oh, this time Li Yun will also follow, but Li Yun, who is two years younger than him, is not so lucky.

Li Ke and Li Yin's things were prepared by the eldest grandson queen, but they still had to look at some of their personal belongings. Li Ke was in front directing Anping and Lu Yang to pack their things, and Li Yin was rubbing back and forth behind Li Ke. Tian Li Ke is still the same as before, and his treatment of Li Yin has not changed much.

But that was all from the perspective of outsiders, but from the perspective of Li Yin, the person concerned, it was different. The feeling was indescribable, but he did feel Li Ke's alienation.

Could it be that the third brother was really angry with him because of a cat?Li Yin didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him, he was just rejoicing that he killed the cat first, otherwise, when Li Ke's relationship with the cat deepened, how much status would he still have in Li Ke's heart? ?

Although it is silly to compete with a cat, Li Yin feels that he has nothing left, and he can only hold on to his brother.

Li Yin thought that Li Ke was just angry with him, and it would be fine after a while. In fact, Li Ke simply wanted to take this opportunity to cut Li Yin. He just wanted to kick the pig teammates out of the group first!

This situation continued until we went hunting. There were only five of the princes who came this time. Except for Li Chengqian and Li Ke, the remaining three seemed very excited. These few had already started to learn how to ride and shoot. But the level is not that good, but the more this is the case, the more they like to stroll back and forth on horseback. After all, even if there are horse farms around Chang'an for horse racing, they still don't feel free on the road.

This is a pain for Li Chengqian and Li Ke. Li Chengqian is because he listened to Pei Xuan's words and compared his understanding in the previous life. A younger brother of his own mother.

Although Li Chengqian hates Li Tai from the bottom of his heart, if he has hatred for Li Ke, then he probably hates Li Tai deeply. After all, no matter how much Li Ke does, it may not necessarily threaten his status, but Li Tai does not The same, but because Li Tai has not yet shown destructive power, or Li Tai has basically been robbed of Li Ke's limelight, so now Li Tai is not a threat to Li Chengqian.

Because of this, even though Li Chengqian wanted to kill Li Ke, he was also very happy to think that Li Ke's existence could disgust Li Tai.

But no matter how disgusting he is, he can't show it, and he has to take care of him everywhere. After he takes care of Li Tai, he can't ignore other brothers, right?

And Li Ke is naturally because of Li Yin. He always feels that Li Yin's current mental state is not right, and he might offend someone if he is not careful. One point, don't let this kid bring hatred to himself.

But he stared at Li Yin and naturally couldn't ignore the remaining younger brothers, so he and Li Chengqian looked at the younger brothers like two male nannies, and couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic for a while.However, Li Ke and the prince took two paths. The prince took the warm-hearted route, and was gentle and polite to every younger brother, while Li Ke took the cold route. Time will lend a helping hand.

Although there are not many brothers now, Li Shimin's sons have been divided into factions. Li Chengqian and Li You are in the same faction, Li Ke and Li Yin are in the same faction, and Li Tai... Li Tai is in the separate faction.

Li Tai's thoughts are not too complicated to say the least, it's just that he was not convinced that Li Chengqian was treated better than him in the beginning, although he was young, he also knew the importance of the crown prince.So he went to win over Li Ke and made friends with Li Ke. One was that Li Yuan liked Li Ke, and the other was because Li Ke was the only older brother among the brothers at that time.

In the end, I didn't expect that Li Ke's life would be smoother and smoother, and he would be more favored in front of his father than his son-in-law. This made Li Tai a little unhappy, and he didn't want to make friends with Li Ke again, otherwise, wouldn't he have done it? So many are making wedding dresses for Li Ke?

Originally, Li Tai wanted to win over Li You. Li You's background was not very good. His mother was Concubine Yin. It was true that Li Shimin liked it before, but since Li Shimin became the throne, he has never had any beauties around him. Besides, Concubine Yin's background is also very embarrassing, Li You is not Li Shimin's favorite, he is more transparent among brothers, Li Yin can often see Li Shimin because of Li Ke, Li You just...

Under such circumstances, Li You didn't want to fight for the big position, but he had to find a thigh to hug him tightly.And Li Chengqian was chosen by Li You. It is true that Li Ke is favored now, but he is no match for Li Chengqian in terms of background and status. Since he is going to bow his head and hug his thigh, why not find a golden thigh to hug him?

Li You's logic is very simple and clear, but the one he regards as the golden thigh is a bit unlucky, without him, Li You is also a pig teammate, he... He even conspired against him.Before Li Chengqian laughed at Li Ke for having Li Yin next to him, but Li Yin was nothing more than disobeying discipline and beating officials. Although it was also a crime, it was not that terrible.

But Li You... Li Chengqian decided to take good care of Li You's closeness, and not let everyone find out that he was acting with other younger brothers before, but he also couldn't give Li You any hope.

After Li You worked hard for a long time without any results, he couldn't help but feel a little bit of resentment in his heart, so Li Chengqian didn't have one more pig teammate, but just one more pig opponent. Li Chengqian expressed that he didn't have any psychological burden on this situation.

Li Shimin didn't know the various thoughts among his sons, he just felt that his sons were really united, especially Li Chengqian did take on the responsibility of the elder brother, and praised Li Chengqian in various ways when he was happy.

Li Chengqian said silently, it's better to bear with those idiots for the time being.

This kind of tolerance lasted until Guiquan Valley. After arriving in Guiquan Valley, Li Shimin encouraged everyone, and then ended first. After him, everyone also ended one after another. The princes were brought by Li Shimin. After all, even the biggest Li Chengqian never hunted alone when he was hunting in school.

Li Shimin brought them with him mainly to tell them not to run around, he also has certain skills in hunting, and most importantly, he also let his sons see his heroic appearance.

Li Chengqian and Li Ke felt a little tired following Li Shimin's side - of course they knew how powerful Li Shimin was, but they had to keep flattering them, and Li Tai, Li You and Li Yin really worshiped Li Shimin. Compared with the three little guys, the two of them can't seem too perfunctory.

Li Tai and the others are not pretending, especially Li Tai, we all know that he is a little fat man, although a little fat kid these days will make everyone think he is cuter, but of course there are disadvantages of being fat, that is, he is in terms of strength. He is simply the bottom of the brothers - even Li Yin is better than him under Li Ke's training.

The little fat man felt so sad that he was here to watch this hunting, so he naturally wanted to surround Li Shimin to express his admiration.

The first day was basically Li Shimin's personal hunting show. After he had had enough fun and heard enough praise, he patted the horse under him and said to his sons: "From tomorrow onwards, you can hunt freely, but you must be around. Follow the people, don't run out of the range of the hunting ground, and don't get too excited, you have to go to Yulongchuan in two days."

Li Chengqian and Li Ke breathed out together, and immediately agreed happily.After returning home, Li Yin ran over to Li Ke and asked for free activities tomorrow.

Yes, Li Ke originally planned to bring Li Yin with him, but he never expected Li Yin to become independent.Li Ke thought about it for a while and didn't object, he just said: "You must bring someone with you, don't go too deep, you know?"

Li Min didn't follow, Li Ke really relaxed a bit, I have to say that the scenery of Guiquan Valley is pretty good, Li Ke didn't want to compete for the ranking, so he shot two arrows intentionally, hit two sheep, a few rabbits, weighed I felt that I was almost able to do business, and the rest of the time began to let the horse walk freely.

Li Ke rode his horse and wandered around slowly. Since he arrived here, he had rarely been so leisurely. The most important thing was that almost no one came to the place he chose—there were too few prey.

It's just that Li Ke never expected that even with few prey, he could meet old acquaintances here.When he saw Pei Xuan, he was really taken aback, because Pei Xuan was actually shooting around by himself, yes, he didn't have any guards around him, Li Ke looked around and found that Li Chengqian was not here either.

At this time, Pei Xuan seemed to have noticed Li Ke, he turned his horse's head, his eyes sank, he touched the beautiful carved bow in his hand, and then took out an arrow from his quiver.

Pei Xuan's movements were methodical step by step. While doing these movements, his eyes were locked on Li Ke's body. Li Ke looked at him quietly, and then he saw Pei Xuan bent his bow and set an arrow, pointing directly at him!
