Chapter 51 Close to each other

I watch you step by step, and you watch me fall step by step…

If it was said that Liu Yuzhen didn’t know what the saintess said in the past, he finally understood a little bit now.

Out of safety concerns, Emperor Yan asked him to return immediately to the Prime Minister’s Mansion.

He didn’t know why, but since that ambiguous day, Liu Yuzhen had been looking forward to seeing Yan Tenghua.

He must always follow Yan Tenghua’s side, and be more vigilant and keep an eye out for those who would want to hurt him, making it a big step closer to the completion of the task.

Every day after the boring morning court, Emperor Yan would come to the Prime Minister’s Mansion. For Liu Yuzhen who dozed off every early morning of the day, intentionally hung upside down from a tree to strangle him, and maliciously sprayed rice particles all over his body during meals, Emperor Yan instead gave him a lot of rewards. His only punishment had always been to put him to bed and do some assessing on his body.

No matter how confident Liu Yuzhen was in his ability after training, he was still stuck in bed in the end.

“Why are you doing this to me?” Liu Yuzhen couldn’t help but tilt his head, innocently looking at that someone behind him who was working hard.

“Like”, this emotion had always appeared on Emperor Yan’s face, but he never expressed his opinion.

When will he make a statement?

There was an intoxicating smile on Emperor Yan’s stern face. “This King doesn’t want Yuzhen to provoke those people. Let alone a month, This King hopes you will never have anything to do with them. Just be as simple as this. No matter how mischievous you are, this King will forgive you.” Holding Liu Yuzhen’s face in his hands, he kissed him deeply.

“…Really?” Liu Yuzhen didn’t respond to the kiss, but showed a hint of disappointment instead.

His intuition told him that Emperor Yan’s expectation would not be fulfilled, as he still must try and investigate that situation. The order issued by that organization was not bad, anyhow the cause planted in the previous life was the fruit of this life, and the retribution of the next life would depend on the cause planted in this life.  As long as he still had the consciousness, he must do it.

It had also been a long time since Liu Ling appeared. This kind of unbelievable tranquility was by no means permanent, and the matter of him and Emperor Yan must have reached Mingge’s ears as well. Something akin to amazing the world with a single brilliant feat might just actually happen.

In addition, there was still Yan Zhijun whose whereabouts were unknown, and the Northern Country where Emperor Qin was rumored to be assassinated, and the squad A2203 where he speculated that there might just be a third person who was also reborn….. All of these give Liu Yuzhen, a single-celled creature, a headache. If anyone could simply provide him exact instructions, he may not be so entangled in sorting out the logic.

A week passed so peacefully. Liu Yuzhen eventually mustered up his patience to follow Emperor Yan to the morning court, listened to the things that made him confused, and occasionally put forward some unique insights that shocked the audience.

But in fact, none of what Liu Yuzhen hoped to happen happened.

“Did I get it wrong? And those people didn’t really come for Emperor Yan? Or, that they didn’t use guns at all?” Liu Yuzhen couldn’t control himself and fell into this strange circle of thinking.

He believed that it was a gun, a 5.56mm m16 rifle, and even if he was reborn through time travel, his sharp hearing still existed and could clearly distinguish the sound.

“Ah! How annoying!”

“What are you thinking about?” A low voice suddenly came from behind, long black and smooth hair fell from his shoulders, and a heavy breath was sprayed on his cheek.

Liu Yuzhen was in a daze all afternoon, his mind felt as if it was rubbed into paste, but when he heard Emperor Yan’s voice, he immediately jumped up happily from the white jade table. “Which noble concubine have you molested again? Why did it take you so long to come here?”

“Is Yuzhen complaining?”

With the lessons learned from last time, Liu Yuzhen knew that this guy was unreasonable, and denying his question was also meaningless, “Yes, I’m complaining. I hope your concubines don’t think that I really have an affair with you, if they become jealous and come to me to make trouble, I will take action.”

“For this King?” Emperor Yan looked at him with great interest.

“No! It’s for my own pleasure! If I take your imperial concubine, don’t be unhappy.”

“Of course this King would be unhappy,” Emperor Yan suddenly suppressed his smile and said seriously, “This King doesn’t care what they do, but if Yuzhen is with others, this King will be very angry.”

“Why?” Liu Yuzhen asked seriously with an innocent look.

“…..”

This seemed to be their tacit understanding. Even at such a close distance, the two hearts that beat so fast did not confess to each other. Perhaps it was because of this stubborn refusal to confess that the souls that should have blended together, go further and further apart.

“Forget it,” Liu Yuzhen chewed, “come here, let me show you see the map I drew.”

Emperor Yan was pulled to sit down by him, and on the cold white jade table, a piece of square cloth the size of the jade table was quietly laid out. 

Different countries, landscapes, and distribution of rivers were all clearly drawn, but there were also countless “X” marks on the map.

“What kind of mark is this?” Emperor Yan asked.

“It represents a place that Yan Zhijun can’t go to.” Liu Yuzhen pointed to one of the marks, “This is a mountain range. I have someone check it at the junction of Liu Country and Fengzhi Country. It is about a thousand meters above sea level, stretches endlessly, with huge ups and downs, which is equivalent to our Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. It is impossible for a swordsman and a girl with him to go this way.”

Emperor Yan didn’t interrupt him, but frowned when he heard this. He was investigating Yan Zhijun, if he really wasn’t the real Prime Minister Liu, why is he doing so?

Seeing the change in his face, Liu Yuzhen elbowed him, “Don’t interrupt.”

“It had been determined that it was unlikely for Yan Zhijjun to go north of Yuling Kingdom, so she is either still in Liu Kingdom, or is heading east. If she goes to the east, then the big countries she must pass through are Zhao Kingdom and Luoyue Kingdom. Since we have good relations with the Zhao Kingdom, I secretly asked people to go to Zhao Kingdom to investigate, of course it is also possible that they have already left the territory of Zhao……”

However, at that moment, Emperor Yan’s frown became deeper and deeper. After a long time, he finally said, “This King heard that someone is going to assassinate Zhijun, therefore this King stopped talking about looking for her. If you are not Liu Yuzhen from Liu Kingdom, then you should stop inquiring about Yan Zhijun’s affairs.”

He paused every word. He had rarely interrupted Liu Yuzhen’s speech since that morning, this was the first time that the conversation between the two of them was terminated so seriously.
