It is naturally worth everyone to be happy to rescue Sun Bi successfully, but at the same time, everyone also knows that this matter is far from over, because the threats hidden in the dark have not been completely found and have not been cleared one by one.

Relying on the strange trick of the lover bee, Xiao Chengzhi and his team successfully found the yard where Sun Bi was imprisoned, and launched a raid on this night, breaking through their guards in one fell swoop, and saving Sun Bi before they were hurt by them. At the same time, some other thieves and accomplices in the inconspicuous yard were also taken down, no one escaped, no one died, and all captured alive.

The one who captured it alive was Fuzi, who was lurking in Kunming. This was never surprising. What really made people feel shocked was the guy who was about to kill Sun Bi. Although he didn't look very familiar with this person, he quickly confirmed his identity. Han Wenqing, a deputy general in the Dingxi Army, even had several contacts with Sun Bi, and he was considered a middle-level member of the Kunming City Army.

After knowing this fact, Sun Bi also understood why those guys could easily rob him from the Marquis' Mansion. It turned out that they not only had internal support among the servants of the Marquis' Mansion, but also had their people in the army. Obviously, there must be more than one such person. Maybe there would be their people in the guards guarding each of the Marquis' Mansion that night. This was the key to his rapid removal after being poured by the medicine.

Just because he knew that this matter was extraordinary, Xiao Ding did not dare to relax at all. He only greeted Sun Bi a few words and asked someone to take him back to his room to rest. He asked a doctor to treat him, so he quickly took someone to interrogate the Luotian scholars. Since these guys are in their hands now, Xiao Ding naturally had to use all means to pry open their mouths and dig out all the accomplices who were still hiding in the military mansion.

Li Ling and his wife were a little helpless about such things. After all, they had a special status and could not interfere in the internal affairs of the Dingxi Army at will, so in the end, they could only come to visit Sun Bi.

Because Li Ling and Sun Bi were about age, they had a good relationship with friends before. They met well. Seeing that they were a little tired, Yang Chen and others got up and quit. However, Li Ling was not so considerate this time, and he kept it and turned around to close the door.

Sun Bi couldn't help but look at him curiously until he saw him solemnly: "Li Ling, the head of the Qing Office of the Ministry of Revenue, met the Seventh Prince."

Then he understood a little and smiled bitterly: "Do you know my identity too?"

"That's right, but please don't worry, the prince is not sure about this matter."

"Is it my uncle who told you?"

Li Ling nodded, and then looked at Sun Bi carefully, and found that there was always a little sorrow between his eyebrows, which was something that had been ignored in the past. Obviously, this Tian family member was not very happy even in southern Yunnan.

"You have deliberately pointed out my identity now, but do you have anything to say?" Sun Bi asked straightforwardly without going around in circles.

Li Ling looked at him and nodded slightly after a moment: "Seventh Prince, I really have something to say. The situation in the southwest is so chaotic. I believe you can see it more thoroughly than me. It's really not a good place."

"You want to persuade me to leave here and go back to the capital?" Sun Bi immediately grasped the meaning of his words and looked back and asked.

Li Ling nodded: "Although you don't know why you came from the capital to the southwest, no reason is more important than safety. The son of a thousand gold medal cannot sit in the hall, let alone the prince. If there is a mistake this time, our sins will be great. Moreover, your identity is probably exposed now. If you continue to stay in the southwest, those traitors will definitely attack you. You can't be wary of it all the time, right? So for the sake of safety, please return to the capital."

Sun Bi listened quietly to him saying the reason, but his face was silent: "Return to the capital, go back to the side of his father? Perhaps in your opinion, this is the safest choice, but in your eyes, returning to Luoyang is probably more dangerous than staying here. Therefore, I can't agree to this matter."

When he said this, his tone and expression were very calm, but Li Ling saw determination from his expression, which surprised him very much. He was a little confused about what to say for a moment.

It is strange enough for a prince to run to a border like southern Yunnan. Now, after experiencing such a life-and-death crisis, he still doesn't have the slightest fear of leaving, which is even more problematic. Obviously, this must be related to Sun Bi's experience in the capital, and Xiao Dingxi Hou, as his uncle, also knew about this, so he has been with him for several years.

But the problem is that Li Ling didn't know the cause and effect, and this time, he couldn't ask more details. How could he, a minister, go too far inquire about the matter of the Tian family? At most, he would stand on the position of the minister and persuade him on the grounds of safety and filial piety. But it is obvious that if you only look at the other party's firm appearance, such persuasion will definitely be useless.

He had no choice but to sigh and wait for the second best: "Since your highness has made up your mind, I dare not force it. However, I still hope that your highness can place himself and the country first and agree to my two requests."

"you say."

"I hope that Your Highness can pay more attention to his safety in the future and no longer let bad people take advantage of it. Also, if there is any difficulty, come to me. Although I am not talented, I can always help Your Highness in some matters." Li Ling said his request with a serious expression.

Sun Bi was slightly moved and nodded immediately: "This is natural. This incident has also made me understand some truths, so I will naturally not be careless in the future. As for asking you for help... it is not difficult to agree, but you have to promise me one thing too!"

"Your Highness, please say that as long as I can do it, I will never refuse."

"You and I were friends before, and I don't think this will change in the future, so from now on, don't call me why your highness, or what other ministers are. We are just friends, so we have to help each other. How about?" As he spoke, Sun Bi stared at Li Ling tightly, and seemed to be quite nervous.

This sentence also made Li Ling stunned, and then the corner of his mouth slowly curled up: "Okay! Then I will call you Brother Sun in the future!" This prince is indeed very different from the princes he knows. This time he has completely confirmed it.

Although Li Ling had only been in the court for more than a year and had not really come into contact with several princes, he only had a clear impression of the princes from his contact with King Yong, as well as his colleagues' descriptions of the princes and other princes. These princes were either wise or solemn, and had a very kind attitude towards their subordinates, but the inherent noble temperament has always existed.

Even if they seem polite and wise, they are still in relationships between the king, minister, and servant. For example, there have always been reports of the prince and the so-called four friends in Luoyang City. Their relationship is said to be friends, but in fact they are distinctive. Not to mention getting along on weekdays, even if they are called, they cannot really call their names and be called brothers.

But here at Sun Bi, Li Ling could feel sincere feelings. No matter whether he had been with the soldiers who saved him before or now he was facing him, he could not see any noble temperament, just as if he was completely equal to everyone.

This may be because Li Ling had never thought that Sun Bi's name had been through the fact that he might be the prince, because this young man was not only steady and strategic, but also could not see any of the royal children's superior temperament.

Perhaps some people would say that Sun Bi was not loved by the emperor and was unable to be named king for a long time, and became a marginalized person among the princes. But in Li Ling's opinion, this is actually a matter of mentality. At least Sun Bi has never really treated himself as a prince now, so in the southwest, he was like a fish in water and could make friends with everyone, so he didn't want to return to Luoyang, even if it was so chaotic and dangerous here.

Sun Bi's next reaction also confirmed Li Ling's view, because after hearing this title, he smiled sincerely: "Wen Zhong, you and I are a friend of life and death this time. I have heard Chengzhi say that this time, thanks to you early reminder, so that I can return to Kunzhou in time, saving the city and me. Since that's the case, you really don't have to be polite between you and me. If I have difficulties, I will come to you. Similarly, if you have any problems, you can come to me. If you can help, I will definitely help."

"Then I will thank Brother Sun first." Li Ling smiled and clasped his fists. At this time, he saw the other party yawning again, so he stopped disturbing him. After a few more words of advice, he stepped out.

...

At the same time, in another room, Bai Xianyang stared at Xian'er with a blue expression: "You...how could you give him such a love pot? Xian'er, you're so messy!"

Xian'er looked dissatisfied: "Uncle, why are you angry? Everyone knows that since I like someone, I naturally want to hand over everything to him, and naturally I will never be separated from him for the rest of my life. What's the problem with me giving him this Gu together? Moreover, if it weren't for this Gu and Lover Bee, I'm afraid Brother Bi will both, and I'll want them all..."

"What do you... do you know? His identity...it's impossible for you two to have a good result. You don't leave any room to add this Gu. In the future, you will definitely regret it!"

"How could it be? He likes me, and I like him too. We will definitely be together, let alone regret it!" Xian'er was extremely sure, which made Bai Xianyang not know what to say for a while. Obviously, she really didn't know what Sun Bi's identity was.

In the end, the uncle could only sigh: "I don't understand, where did Sun Bi make you so obsessed with."
