Chapter 1194 [The Glory of Tang Dynasty 21]

Li Chu looked at the cute little cat on the sachet and couldn't help but love it. He gently stroked the embroidery thread on the sachet, feeling the delicate touch, as if he could touch the intention of the person who embroidered the little cat.

He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said to Cui Caiping with a smile: "Your Highness, the cat on this sachet is so lifelike. I think the cat's expression is quite similar to that of the princess. Could it be that the princess wants me to look at this sachet every day, so that I can miss her all the time?"

Cui Caiping felt shy when she heard this. She glanced at Li Chu in a reproachful manner and said coquettishly, "What are you talking about? I just embroidered a sachet for you. How can it have so much meaning?"

Seeing this, Li Chu's smile became more obvious. He teased, "Oh? You just embroidered it casually? Then this sachet is really exquisitely crafted. I must cherish it."

Cui Caiping felt a little proud when she heard him say that. She stretched out her hand and said, "Since you don't like it, give it back to me."

Li Chu quickly protected the sachet behind him and said with a smile: "That won't do. Since the princess has given the sachet to me, it belongs to me. There is no reason for me to take it back."

Cui Caiping felt helpless when she saw this. She muttered, "You are such a jerk..."

Seeing this, Li Chu quickly changed the subject and said, "By the way, Princess, I still have some things to deal with. You should go and accompany my father and mother first."

Cui Caiping nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go first." After that, she turned and left, walking towards the direction where the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince were.

After Cui Caiping left, Li Chu called Feng Shengyi, and the two went to the suburbs together to look for the reclusive Lord Li Mi. Lord Li Mi knew the court very well, but he chose to live in seclusion here because he was disappointed with the current situation of treacherous officials in power and persecuting loyal officials.

Li Chu came to Li Mi's residence, expecting to see him, but found that the house was empty. However, his eyes were soon attracted by a picture album on the table. Opening the picture album, Li Chu was surprised to find that it recorded all those people from various departments of the court who were unwilling to go along with Yang Guozhong.

Li Chu sighed inwardly, this trip was indeed not in vain, this atlas was undoubtedly a valuable piece of information for him. He carefully put away the atlas and prepared to take it back to his house for careful study.

Li Chu turned to Feng Shengyi and said, "I want to walk around by myself. You go back first." Feng Shengyi nodded in response and left quietly.

At the same time, Shen Zhenzhu came to the temple in the mountains alone to pray. She knelt down sincerely in the temple and prayed for the safety of her family. Just as she stood up and prepared to leave, she unexpectedly met An Qingxu.

When An Qingxu saw Shen Zhenzhu, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes. He quickly walked to Zhenzhu and expressed his feelings to her again. However, Shen Zhenzhu smiled and told him that she had always regarded him as her own brother and had no romantic feelings for him.

After hearing this, An Qingxu showed a hint of disappointment on his face, but he still forced a smile and said, "I understand, Zhenzhu, as long as you are happy."

On the other side, Li Chu took Cui Caiping to stroll around the temple fair. Cui Caiping was a little dissatisfied with Li Chu's behavior, and she tried to shake off Li Chu's hand, but Li Chu held her hand tightly.

"Your Highness, if you want to go, just go. Why are you holding me back?" Cui Caiping said coquettishly.

Li Chu raised his lips slightly and replied with a smile: "There are many people here, and I am afraid that the princess will be lost."

Cui Caiping sighed helplessly and had to let Li Chu pull her forward.

The two walked to a square and saw a group of masked men performing acrobatics, which attracted cheers from the people around them. Li Chu and Cui Caiping were also attracted, and they stopped and watched with interest.

At this moment, something strange happened! The masked men suddenly took out their swords and pounced on Li Chu like hungry tigers. Li Chu's face changed drastically when he saw this. He didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly pulled Cui Caiping and turned around and ran up the mountain.

Li Chu and Cui Caiping ran all the way and finally reached the top of the mountain. However, they found that they had no way to escape because the man in black followed them to the edge of the cliff.

"Your Highness, there is no way out!" Cui Caiping shouted in horror.

Li Chu held Cui Caiping's hand tightly and comforted her, "Don't be afraid. I am here to protect you."

Although Cui Caiping was still a little uneasy in her heart, she calmed down a little after hearing Li Chu's words.

"But Your Majesty, can you defeat so many men in black?" she asked worriedly.

Li Chu frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Don't say anything, just listen to me."

In a flash, the men in black pounced on him like a hungry tiger. Li Chu faced them fearlessly and started a fierce fight with them.

However, Li Chu was outnumbered and was gradually forced to the edge of the cliff. Just as he was about to fall off the cliff, Li Chu suddenly reached out and grabbed Cui Caiping at the last moment.

Cui Caiping only felt a huge force pulling her towards the cliff, and a feeling of despair suddenly surged in her heart.

"Sure enough, nothing good will happen if I follow Li Chu!" she cursed in her heart.

With a scream, the two fell off the cliff together.

After an unknown amount of time, Cui Caiping slowly opened her eyes and found herself lying on Li Chu.

"It seems that he used his body to protect me when he fell off the cliff." Cui Caiping thought.

She touched Li Chu's nose and found he was still breathing weakly. It was obvious that he was just unconscious.

At this moment, Cui Caiping suddenly heard a slight sound of footsteps. It was the voice of the assassin!

"Oh no, it's not safe here!" Cui Caiping's heart tightened. She wanted to get up and run away immediately, but when she saw Li Chu lying on the ground, she hesitated.

"Since he just took the blame for me, please be kind and save him." Cui Caiping sighed and said to herself.

Cui Caiping carried Li Chu on her back. This person was very heavy. If she was not very strong, she would not be able to carry her.
