Because she was afraid that the answer Lu Li would give was not the one she wanted.

"I know."

Lu Li's eyes darkened.

He knew, he knew all this.

Although he knew this, he still couldn't help but waver when Li Han said those words just now.

The feeling was very subtle, and he couldn't really put his finger on it.

"It's good that you know."

Gu Chengbei nodded and said nothing more.

Sometimes, no matter what others say about many things, it is useless. As long as the person involved understands it himself and thinks clearly about what to do.

He didn't really oppose Lu Li and Li Han. He just wanted to kindly remind Lu Li out of their brotherhood over the years.

This will save Lu Li from regretting his decision and suffering.

If a situation becomes difficult to control, he wouldn't mind helping Lu Li solve the problem himself.

"Let's talk about you. Didn't we escort you back? Why are you back again?"

Lu Li looked at Gu Chengbei and asked.

"How dare you say that? Why did I go back? Didn't I think you were going to start a mutiny? And what happened? You didn't move a hair! That old man keeps sending letters to ask about the progress. It's hard for me to just stay home!"

When talking about Gu Chengbei, I felt helpless. Is he hiding from loneliness? He looked at Lu Li with a resentful look and complained.

At this time, the tone of his voice had returned to that of a big boy, a bit like the sunny feeling of a big boy next door.

"We had clearly agreed to take action, and everything was ready, just waiting for you to make your move. But what did you do? So many people were waiting for you outside! Father even came to me several times to ask what was going on. I didn't know how to excuse you over and over again, so I had no choice but to come back to this place again."

After saying that, Gu Chengbei sighed.

Li Han outside raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

Wasn't it for some cultural exchange?

She thought he had gone somewhere to play, but it turned out he had gone home to avoid the mutiny.

"Thanks a lot."

Lu Li patted Gu Chengbei's shoulder with a little sympathy.

He knew that Gu Chengbei's father was nagging and he had seen his silver tongue before.

Although it wasn't harsh, nor was it a reproach, and it could even be said to be a little bit kind, it was still very uncomfortable to listen to.

Because he keeps talking and talking without stopping in between, he can talk for several hours without even needing to drink water to moisten his mouth.

"My ears are all calloused!"

As he said this, he pinched his ears, as if there really was a layer of calluses on them.

The atmosphere between the two people in the room has changed, so there is no need to continue listening. I don't think I will hear any important information if I continue listening.

She also didn't know where Qingxuan was, or whether he would come back suddenly. If she was caught on the spot, her life might be gone.

He retreated cautiously for a distance, then shouted, "Ah Li!"

She did not call him Li Lang, nor did she call him "Xiang Gong" or "Husband", but called him by his name, as intimately as a pair of lovers.

"Ah Li! It's time to eat!"

Li Han shouted as he ran, creating the feeling that he had just arrived.

If she had just pushed the door open and walked in, the two people inside would have been suspicious of her, so she did this on purpose.

The two people in the room heard Li Han's voice, looked at each other, then put away everything on the table, put it in the drawer of the table, and then took out a new military map and unfolded it on the table.

There was nothing written or marked on that military map. It was a completely new military map.

"You see, this place is easy to defend but difficult to attack, so we must..."

Gu Chengbei casually pointed at the map and said.

The two of them started pretending like this, and when Li Han opened the door and came in, he saw this scene.

"The Imperial Master is here too!"

Li Han covered his mouth with his hand and asked in surprise.

"Well, I'm sorry. I saw Qingxuan wasn't standing outside, so I thought it was Ah Li and I who were inside. I didn't know the Imperial Master was also here, so I barged in rashly."

Li Han bowed slightly and said embarrassedly: "Since the Imperial Master has something to discuss with the Prince Consort, I will leave first."

After saying that, he turned around and started to leave.

"No need, I've said everything I need to say. Princess, what do you want to talk to Brother Lu about?"

The Imperial Master asked with a slight smile.

"I'm here to call Ah Li for dinner. Since the Imperial Master is here, let's eat together. I'm in a good mood today and have prepared a lot of food. We can't finish it all."

Li Han smiled shyly and then spoke in a low voice.

Gu Chengbei's eyes lit up after hearing what Li Han said: "Then I won't be polite!"

God knows how many days he has been waiting for this meal?

Now that he had finally waited for someone to invite him to use it, and it was made by her herself, how could he possibly refuse?

On the dining table,

"When did the Imperial Master come? Why didn't he tell me in advance so that I could prepare? I know nothing about this and I don't have anything good to offer the Imperial Master. I hope the Imperial Master won't despise me."

Li Han said embarrassedly after sitting down.

If she knew there were guests, she wouldn't act like this. She would just serve the dishes on a random plate and wouldn't even bother to arrange the dishes.

She just thought that they were all eating it, so there was no need to spend time making the dish look so good, as long as it tasted good.

The main reason was that her hands were tired from cooking so many dishes by herself, so she gave up the idea of ​​plating. Normally, she would just do it simply. But when she gave up plating, she was caught by someone else!

"You're joking, Princess. Brother Lu and I are brothers, so why should we be so polite? Besides, I've been staying here for several days, but I haven't seen you yet."

It was precisely because he had never seen Li Han and had never been able to eat the food she cooked that he refused to leave!

He was unwilling to leave until he had tasted the food cooked by Li Han, just because Lu Li said that the food cooked by Li Han was delicious, even better than the food cooked by the chef in his house. That's why he was like a possessed person!

What I didn’t expect was that after eating, I didn’t want to leave even more, and Lu Li didn’t chase me away.

Because keeping him here is the best way out of the current situation.

"Really?" Li Han was a little surprised that she only found out about this now.
