Li Su has this feeling in his heart at the moment, an unintentional sentence many years ago has affected the fate of a pair of lovers and even a family, Li Su feels very unhappy, he wants to save, wants to make up for it, and do his best to reverse this evil result.
However, once he makes a move, he must take a large enough risk, which includes the safety of himself and his family, because what he has to do is very serious, he wants to change this already definite fact, and at the same time he is challenging the imperial power.
Only a person who is a dead person will do this kind of death, with Li Su's cautious and cautious character, he has always avoided danger as far as he can, but this time, he found that he could not dodge, he could only go head-on.
The difference between a good person and a bad person is whether there is still a trace of conscience in the heart, whether there is any reverence for life, whether it is one's own life or the life of others.
Xu Mingzhu didn't know what Li Su thought in her heart, she had been living a very simple life, Li Su was like a big tree, supporting her with a green shade, she sat in the green shade, only to see the warbler **** long, the sun was shining, those things that were too complicated, too dark things, were blocked by Li Su, isolating them in another place where she couldn't see.
Seeing Li Su's depressed appearance at the moment, Xu Mingzhu only felt very distressed and panicked, she rarely saw him like this, even when she was defending Xizhou and seeing that the city was about to be destroyed, she had never seen Li Su so depressed.
"The husband is a person who does big things, the concubine told me before she got married, you have to listen to the husband's words, don't stop the husband from doing anything, the concubine doesn't understand the big things that the husband does, but the concubine knows that the husband must know how to make trade-offs, whether it is advance or retreat, the concubine body stands with the husband, whether it is to share the glory and wealth, or to cut off the head on the execution ground, where the husband is, where the concubine is."
Li Su smiled, stroked the top of her head lovingly, and said: "It's not as serious as cutting off the head, I'm not a person who doesn't know the severity, no matter what, my family is the most important, I won't risk your life, our emperor is still very reasonable, as long as it is not involved in the crime of rebellion, it will generally not cause trouble to the family, but there may be some bad results, if it doesn't work out, maybe exile for thousands of miles, maybe dismissal and dismissal and imprisonment, you and I are husband and wife for life, There may be something that may happen at home, but I still have to tell you about it so that you can be prepared. ā
Xu Mingzhu hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but say, "Can the concubine ask her husband what she wants to do?" ā
Li Su looked up at the roof beam and said lightly: "I want to save someone, and I also want to save the unintentional mistakes I once made." ā
Xu Mingzhu's eyes flashed gloomily, and he sighed: "The husband protects the concubine too well, and the concubine is ...... always can't melt into the husband's other world. ā
The gloomy color only flashed, and then Xu Mingzhu's expression became as resolute as steel, just like the determination when he crossed the desert for thousands of miles.
"What does the husband want to do, just let it go, the concubine is behind her back to accompany the husband!"
Li Su smiled: "Don't worry, I'll just try." And I only try once, and if I perceive danger, I will retreat. ā

Dongyang Taoist Temple.
There was a charcoal fire in the room, five copper furnaces of different sizes, which were placed in the four corners of the hall, and the largest one was placed in the center of the hall.
The stove is very exquisitely made, the workmanship and materials are much stronger than those of the Li family, and the system is also much larger. Of course, there are also familiar things, there is a chimney stretched out next to the five stoves in the hall, the chimney has been bent to the outside of the hall, Li Su many times invented gadgets do not expect it to make money, only to use it in life convenient and safe, but also let themselves have to worry about it, such as this chimney, after the invention was first installed in their own rooms, and then craftsmen built more than a dozen, like a treasure sent to Dongyang's Taoist temple, seeing Dongyang's eyes full of surprise and admiration, Li Su's heart is more satisfied than making money.
It's just that today, the atmosphere between the two doesn't seem to be very good.
"Save Ping'er? Princess Wencheng? Dongyang's apricot eyes widened, and he was so shocked that he even sharpened his tone.
Li Su plucked out his ears: "Tap the sound, the noise is out of standard, beware that I will go to the yamen to sue you for disturbing the people." ā
Dongyang was angry: "Are you crazy? Do you know what you're doing? ā
"I know, don't let your good sister marry a Tibetan barbarian...... Li Su squeezed her eyes: "The word 'anxious justice and righteousness' is what I mean, in order to keep you from being sad, I simply saved your good sister, look at how good I am, you can meet me in this life, it is simply a blessing for ten lifetimes,...... You see, handsome, gentle, and most importantly, kind-hearted, if you read more, the sages of ancient times would be almost like me, right? ā
Dongyang was angry and funny, and said angrily: "If the sage is like this, my father is only afraid that he will have to burn books ten more times to relieve his hatred." ā
Li Su froze for a moment, and then looked at her sadly: "You are getting sharper and sharper, have you taken the magic medicine that has greatly increased your strength?" ā
Pinching her chin with one hand, Li Su motioned to her: "The mouth is so poisonous, are you eating arsenic?" Open your mouth and let me see the tongue coating ......"
"you!" Dongyang knocked his hand off and said, "Hurry up and dispel this idea!" The holy decree has been issued, the princess's name has been sealed, and the Tibetan mission will escort the princess on the road in two days. ā
Li Su blinked: "You won't save your sister?" ā
Dongyang's expression was very serious, staring at his face, and said: "I want to save her, but there must be a trade-off in life, if I have a choice between you and her, I must choose you, Li Su, you can't take any more risks, not the slightest!" What you have to do is not only to reverse this marriage affair, but to change the national policy recognized by the monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty, it is impossible to succeed, but to harm yourself, Li Su, you have to quickly dispel your thoughts! ā
Li Su said lightly: "Do you remember that many years ago by the river beach, I told you about the strategy to deal with harmony?" I said that if your father is reluctant to let his daughter marry far away, why not choose a daughter among the clan relatives to be named a princess and marry on behalf of the royal family and relatives......
Dongyang nodded: "Of course I remember, I still played this strategy to my father." ā
Li Su sighed gloomily: "Princess Wencheng, she is the victim of my scheme, do you understand my feelings at the moment?" I killed an innocent woman, this woman has a favorite man, and a very sad father, which is equivalent to saying that I not only harmed him, but also ruined a beautiful marriage, and the father and daughter can't see each other in this life. ā
Dongyang's face was filled with guilt and self-blame, and his voice suddenly choked: "I was the one who dedicated the policy of harmony to my father, it is said that I harmed Ping'er, I am the one who created evil, and all the retribution should be repaid on me......"
Li Su smiled: "What does my idea have to do with you?" According to my penchant for showing off at that time, even if you don't say it, sooner or later this plan will be passed on to Your Majesty by others......"
"Dongyang, I never feel that I am a good person, it's not that I haven't done anything to pit people, but this kind of hurt innocent thing, I can't do it, even if I do it unintentionally, I have to do my best to reverse it and change it, saying that the word 'kindness' is too hypocritical, what I want is just my own peace of mind. Do you understand what I mean? ā
Dongyang sobbed, was silent for a moment, and nodded reluctantly.
Li Su smiled: "Okay, I have made up my mind about this matter, I don't need to say it anymore, in fact, it's not that serious, I try hard, if I still feel that there is little hope, I will withdraw decisively, as for guilt, then guilt, I still have more responsibilities on my body...... The Tibetan mission will leave in two days, I have to hurry up, you work hard, go to Chang'an City in person, visit their father and daughter in Jiangxia Palace, and then convey my meaning......"
Dongyang reluctantly acquiesced to Li Su's decision, she knew Li Su's temperament, once he really decided, it would be difficult for others to persuade him to change his mind.
Looking up at him, Dongyang said, "Do you have a way?" ā
Li Su said with a smile: "There is no specific way for the time being, what I urgently need to do now is to gain time, not to let the Tubo Prime Minister go too hasty, the Tang Dynasty monarchs and ministers are very hospitable, this point, I think he will be able to deeply understand it tomorrow ......"
"What do you mean...... Leave the Tibetan Mission? How to stay? ā
"This, it depends on your Jiangxia Uncle Wang's ability, in a word, 'do things'."
Dongyang was stunned: "What does it mean to 'do things'?" ā
"Make a little trouble for the Tubo mission, so that they can't leave if they want to, so they have to stay in Chang'an honestly, and let them know that there are variables in the Tang Dynasty and Tubo and their relatives."
Dongyang nodded confusedly.
"Also, I need to meet the prince of Zhenla......" Li Su showed a hideous look: "A foreign little barbarian is in love with the, and even I have to take action, this prince owes me a lot of favors, if I don't slaughter him hard, how can he understand the truth that 'love is precious, and money is more valuable'?" ā
Dongyang laughed and was angry, and slapped him hard: "What's the 'higher price of money', all good talents are used in this crooked way!" How are you going to slaughter him? Don't go too far, or I'll be embarrassed to see the screen in the future......"
Li Su said with a serious face: "I'll tell you this, if I help them get through the difficulties in this matter, so that they can have lovers and eventually become married, that prince will probably have to shed his skin if he doesn't die, and he can't afford to pay the down payment for the house if he lives with Her Royal Highness the princess, and it is very likely that he will have to go out with a bowl every day to beg for food to support his family." ā
