Following the south wall, heading east until he saw a familiar river and walked into a familiar village, the flower swordsman asked: "What is this place?"

Li Bu replied: "There is a tunnel here that can directly enter Yan Chang'an without going through the gate. If we go through the gate, we may be in trouble."

The flower swordsman understood what Li Bu meant, nodded, and then followed him to the bottom of a big rock. He dug through the grass and found a deep pit inside.

Li Bu helped Han Qing into the pit, and then slowly led her along the tunnel. After a while, Han Qing whispered: "Brother Bu, I'm so bored!"

Li Bu said: "Just be patient for a little bit! This section of the road is also very long, but when we get out, it will be much more comfortable."

Han Qing nodded and walked at the front, with Li Bu protecting her from behind and the flower swordsman walking at the end.

When it was almost completely dark, Han Qing fainted. Li Bu, who had been guarding her, felt something strange and asked, "What's wrong, Han Qing? Are you okay?"

Han Qing covered his forehead and replied softly: "Brother Bu, I'm a little sick!"

Hearing this, Li Bu frowned: "What should we do? It must be caused by the damp tunnel and the weird smell."

Han Qing stopped talking. It seemed that he was feeling uncomfortable. Talking might cause nausea, so he simply forced himself to move forward.

Fortunately, this section of the road has come to an end and I saw the light spot. Although it was covered by a wall, it could not prevent the light from entering.

Pushing open the wall cover, Li Bu helped Han Qing go up, and then he jumped up. The swordsman also jumped out. The three of them immediately felt comfortable. They took a deep breath and felt that this kind of air was more suitable for them.

"What is this place?" Flower Swordsman asked.

Li Bu looked at it and said, "This is a passage without any houses or buildings, leading all the way to behind the city gate of Yan Chang'an."

"We may need to climb over the wall to get out of the room later, otherwise it will be easy to be discovered." Li Bu said.

When Han Qing heard this, he sighed and complained: "You still want to go to bed?"

Li Bu looked at Han Qing with a smile: "It's okay, I will help you."

Walking forward along the passage, pushing it all the way to the head, Li Bu helped Han Qing jump up, and then followed the small houses and jumped to a small street with not many people.

As soon as he landed on the ground, Li Bu turned around and looked at Hua Jianke and Han Qing, opened his hands and shouted: "Welcome to Yan Chang'an!"

"..."

The three of them started looking for their location along the street. The most important thing to do at this time was to find Zhao Shi.

According to the place that An's father pointed to, that is where the ministers in the south of Yan Chang'an live. A certain household in the second row is the palace of Prince Shi.

On the road, Li Bu randomly approached a commoner and asked, "Old man, may I ask how to get to the Southern Minister's Mansion?"

The old man pointed a place to Li Bu, which was a direction to the west.

Li Bu looked at it, then smiled and thanked him, and then led Li Bu Hua Swordsman towards the west.

We came in from the east before, but if we go west now, we will go to the entire southern part of Yan Chang'an. It seems that this is the right direction.

Arriving all the way to the second row where the southern ministers lived, Li Bu began to search every house. There were not many people here. Except for some rich second generations who were willing to come here to play, there was basically no one there.

.

However, we can also see many people redressing grievances and delivering letters. Basically, everyone who comes here has a mission.

Keep walking westward along the second row of streets until you reach the last few houses, and then you see the plaque saying Prince Shi's Palace.

"It should be right here." Li Bu looked up at the sign, then muttered to himself.

The flower swordsman walked in first. There were two people guarding the door, but the flower swordsman stopped him directly.

Foil swordsman Liu Yao frowned and looked at the two spears crossing in front of him, and said: "I'm here to find someone, so get out of the way wisely."

The gatekeeper smiled and said, "Are you sick? Move away quickly, otherwise don't blame us for being rude."

The flower swordsman was helpless and shrugged his shoulders and looked at Li Bu. Li Bu stepped forward and clasped his fists and said, "You two, I'm here to see Mr. Zhao, so I hope you can inform me and tell me that the former Second Emperor Liu Xia wants to see you."

Hearing the word "Liuxia", the gatekeepers looked at each other, and one of them said: "You go and report, I'm watching them."

The pawn ran in and came out after a while and said: "Come in!"

Li Bu smiled and bent down and clasped his fists and said, "Thank you!" Then he walked in with Han Qinghua Swordsman.

When he came to the main room, Zhao Shi was drinking tea inside. When he saw Li Bu coming in, he stood up and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a long time. Emperor Liu Xia is here and I am sorry for the delay. I hope you can understand me."

Li Bu smiled and replied: "It's okay, it's okay. I still need to ask for your help this time."

When Zhao Shi heard this, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Really? Why do you need to hire a low-level official like me?"

Li Bu smiled and sat down. The flower swordsman stood beside Li Bu. Han Qing did not dare to sit down, so he also stood.

Li Bu said: "Master Zhao is serious. I am here mainly for the sake of unity within the palace. I hope Master Zhao can help me gather some people who want to support me."

Hearing this, Zhao Shi lowered his head, and then said with a bitter look on his face: "Actually, Emperor Liu Xia... there is something I have to tell you."

Li Bu asked in confusion: "What's going on?"

Zhao Shi seemed to have some unexplainable feelings. After hesitating for a long time, he finally sighed and said: "I know that Emperor Liu Xia came here to stabilize his throne, so he asked me to help you win over people. But

…”

Li Bu was confused: "It's okay, Mr. Zhao, you just say it's okay."

Zhao Shi sighed and said: "Actually, your throne no longer exists. Even if you win people's hearts, it probably won't be a deterrent anymore!"

"Not long after you left, Emperor Dongxia abolished the system of one emperor and two emperors, so you are just an ordinary citizen now!" Zhao Shi explained.

Then he paused and continued: "I advise you to leave quickly! Go to a better place to live. There is no way to survive here. If the Emperor of the East knows that you are back, he will definitely do something.

, just like Emperor Wu Xia..."

When Li Bu heard this, he frowned, not because he lost the throne, but because the emphasis was on the three words "Emperor Wuxia".

"What happened to Emperor Wuxia?" Li Bu asked.

Zhao Shi sighed: "Alas! After abolishing one emperor and two emperors, Emperor Wu Xia was sent to fight in the border areas and lived a hard life."

When Li Bu heard this, he nodded: "I see, what does the Emperor of the East want to do?"

Zhao Shi raised his head and said anxiously: "So Emperor Liu Xia, you'd better leave as soon as possible!"

When Li Bu heard Zhao Shi's anxious words, his heart suddenly warmed up: "Thank you, Mr. Zhao. You can say such things to me, which proves how outstanding your character is!"

"But I still insist on asking you to help me win people's hearts!" Li Bu insisted.

Hearing this, Zhao Shi was stunned: "Isn't it right? Emperor Liu Xia, what are you trying to do? Could it be that you want to..."

Li Bu shrugged his shoulders, then approached Zhao Shi and said, "Yes, it's what you think!"

After saying this, Li Bu directly took out the Xiangjun token: "I want the Eastern Emperor to leave that position! How the Eastern Emperor came to power, I guess you know better than me, right?"

When Zhao Shi heard this, his eyes widened immediately: "You know everything?"
