Chapter 25 Dry Comfort Xia Si
Yan Xi picked up the handkerchief, without putting it on the tip of his nose, the dryness of "Rong" in his body was visibly smoothed away.
He put the kerchief in his sleeve pocket.
This distance, this concentration, is already the most recent one.
The medicinal fragrance of "ku" has a fatal attraction to "rong". Once you smell it, you will feel the peace of a healthy person, and you will want more comfort from "ku".
Yan Xi only took a few steps before he realized his body's greed for the blood veil.
Just like a child who has been banned from eating snacks, it is too painful to ask for candy, but just hold it in his hand and refuse to eat it.
It's human nature to want to lick it.
Yan Xi is more pitiful than the children. He suffered for five years, and when he was suddenly given a mouthful of candy, his body screamed violently.
want to.
want more.
However, his will is clear.
Yan Xi frowned and stopped under the moon.
That square handkerchief was like a hot mountain tassel in his sleeve pocket, Yan Xi didn't know what to do with it for a moment.
After a long drought and sweet rain, Yan Xi laughed at himself and said, "Yan Xi, you also have today."
The combined age of his two lifetimes is only a young man of twenty-three years old, and in modern times he is only a college graduate.No matter how he restrained himself from introspection, he still had a youthful heart.
After all, just want to hear more, and it's not a bad thing.
He took out the square handkerchief helplessly, and said, "Follow me from now on, I won't give you a bath, I will treat you well."
Then, Yan Xi put the handkerchief into the skirt, the heart, the hidden place closest to his nose.
Xuanzhai.
Yan Xi went home tonight, so she finally didn't need to drink heart-clearing soup.
Standing in the small courtyard, blowing the night breeze, he felt the comfort of early summer for the first time in five years.
He smiled brightly at the full moon, made a pot of tea by himself, sat at the dilapidated small table in the courtyard, and called briskly, "Wei Chifeng."
Wei Chifeng appeared on the wall.
Yan Xi poured out a cup of tea, and said softly, "Take someone to visit the abandoned mausoleum in Youzhou, transport the magic weapon that Gong Qiong said was swapped in the Shenji case to Laizhou, and send the picture of the flying dragon to Laizhou."to the teacher."
Wei Chifeng jumped off the wall, and said lazily: "Your Highness is addicted to ordering the officials?"
Yan Xi was in a good mood and didn't mind the other party's negligence, Yinyin said with a smile: "This matter is of great importance, there must be no mistakes, you can protect these babies only if you go."
Wei Chifeng said without hesitation: "Your Highness may have made a mistake, this official is not your subordinate."
Yan Xi said with some regret: "So what? But this king is your task. If this king doesn't cooperate with you, you will always be lost. How will you report to the royal father?"
Wei Chi Feng stood up straight and said, "Your Highness is threatening the next official?"
Yan Xi smiled and said: "It's better to say it's an initiative to show favor. This king trusts you and treats you as one of his own, so I entrust you with the most important tasks."
Wei Chifeng said without mercy: "Your Highness is joking. The officials only listen to His Majesty, and don't work for others."
Yan Xi glanced at Yuan Yue, the medicinal fragrance of the bloody handkerchief in the skirt of his clothes soothed him very peacefully, he didn't feel offended, but couldn't help laughing and said: "What if I have a big thank you?"
Wei Chifeng has seen Yan Xi's moodiness before.This youngest prince can make people feel like a spring breeze in one second, and kill them in the next second.According to past experience, this little Highness will change his face in the next moment.
But today it was Yan Xi who asked first, so Wei Chifeng felt confident. He said: "Although I, Wei Chifeng, are down and out, I can't be driven by just anyone. The golden beauty and the promised official position that Jiang's family sent to me back then,I don't even like it, I don't know what good things the little highness has, which can make the lower officials fall in love?"
Yan Xi gracefully poured herself a cup of tea, raised the cup and smelled the hot air under the tip of her nose.It has been five years since he dared not drink hot water. Today, after smelling it for a long time, he felt that the aroma of hot tea was particularly refreshing.
He smiled and said: "Your wife and children were murdered for no reason five years ago. I will allow you to defend their grievances for them. Besides, considering your meritorious service in the past five years, the future leader of my guards must be you."belongs to."
Wei Chifeng sneered: "Your Highness is so big. I waited for five years, but no one can make decisions for me. How dare Your Highness make decisions for me?"
Yan Xi took a sip of the hot tea, not only did his body not sweat when it was hot like in the past, but he felt very comfortable.
He lowered his head slightly and got closer to the bloody veil. Smelling the smell of the medicine, he couldn't help but relax his eyebrows, and his voice became softer: "Because this king knows that only I can make the decision for you. Otherwise, Wei TongzhiAmbition, why would you follow me for five years incognito?"
Yan Xi paused, smiled unconsciously, and said sweetly: "You also know that if other princes ascend to the throne, they will be under the control of the four surnames. Only this king can break the four surnames and make decisions for you."
Wei Chifeng turned cold in that thought-provoking smile.
He saw that Yan Xi smiled a lot today, and it was obviously warmer than usual.However, every word he heard from Yan Xi was straight to the point, without mercy.
Wei Chifeng's heart trembled when Yan Xi's Xili used his words to cover up his smile. He said in a steady voice, "Your Highness is amazing. He has found out everything about me without making a sound. But now, my littleYour Highness is just a two-word county king, if he wants me to sacrifice his life, what guarantee will he give me?"
"My father is ill, right?" Yan Xi said softly to Feng Xiaoyu, "I see that you have been missing recently, it is because of my father's body that something is wrong, did you have a change in your heart?"
Wei Chifeng's spine shivered, and he recognized the metaphor in Yan Xi's smile with trepidation, and said coldly: "Your Highness is really impressive. I just think that I am watching you. If you don't want to, you are watching me too."
Yan Xi took another sip of hot tea, his body was very happy, and his voice was subtly pleasant: "I think my father is not seriously ill, otherwise with my current situation, you would have found another job long ago.My six elder brothers are not easy-going lamps. Although my father cannot fully control the imperial court, he still has the final say on the affairs of the imperial court. Wei Chifeng, you are a smart man. At present, you and I are still together.On the same boat, now is the time to ride the wind and waves, don't you want to watch the next good show with me?"
Wei Chifeng said solemnly: "Your Highness is too confident, you don't have anything, and you want to drag me into the water?"
"As long as you don't leave for a day, I will have the confidence that you dare not leave." Yan Xi pressed the teacup on the table and suddenly smiled and said, "If you don't listen to my order today, you will leave tomorrow."
Wei Chifeng's eyes narrowed dangerously, and he opened his fingers slightly, which was the prelude to attack.
Yan Xi looked at him calmly.
Yan Xi was sitting, Wei Chifeng was standing, if he made a move, Yan Xi would lose the upper hand.
But Yan Xi just looked at each other indifferently, he gently touched the rim of the cup, feeling the gentle heat.
His eyes were cold, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was warm.
During this dangerous confrontation, Wei Chifeng suddenly burst out laughing, and said, "Deal."
Yan Xi raised his glass, and clinked glasses with him in the air, then drank the water in the glass briskly, and said freely: "From now on, you must remember this king, what I ordered you, you must notTell Father. In addition, when I deal with Gong Qiong's matters, I don't want to say a word to Father."
"Your Highness is so assertive." After Wei Chifeng's adventure just now, it is no surprise that Yan Xi will make even more astonishing demands. He knows that he can only respond to this little Highness now, so he said bluntly: "Your Highness is reallyI admire the little highness so much, and I will not say a word about the arrangement of the little highness in the future."
Yan Xi ordered: "Very good. You leave immediately."
"That's exactly what I meant." Wei Chifeng said, "Now in Jingdu, anyone who can get close to His Highness can't find another person. His Highness no longer needs low-ranking guards, and I should find some new jobs for myself.Done. Otherwise, there will be no value one day, and the little highness is afraid that he will not waste food to support idlers."
Yan Xi chuckled with unknown meaning, poured himself another cup of tea, and waved goodbye to Wei Chi.
The guard saluted and retreated.
After taking two steps, he turned around and asked puzzledly: "Since your little Highness guessed that His Majesty was unwell, why didn't you enter the palace to say hello?"
Yan Xi: "Is it because I don't want to see the emperor now? It is clearly the emperor who refuses to summon me. Since the emperor has made arrangements for everything, I am obedient and obey the order. Is there anything wrong or unfilial?"
Wei Chifeng said: "Your Majesty is your blood relative, do you really not care?"
Yan Xi snorted and said: "I care, as a prince, how dare you not care about your father's safety."
Wei Chifeng naturally understood Yan Xi's yin and yang aura, he should have left without hesitation, but seeing Yan Xi's decisive killings recently made his heart tremble.
He asked himself that treating people and things was extremely utilitarian, and he didn't want Yan Xi to be colder and meaner than him, so he couldn't help but said: "Is there anyone who cares about your highness?"
Yan Xi casually said softly: "There will be."
Wei Chifeng knew that what Yan Xi said was just a way to control his subordinates.
But today's little Highness smiled so beautifully that he actually felt that he could trust it a little bit.
He couldn't help but also smiled, and finally asked: "Your Highness, are you happy today?"
Yan Xi had been smiling all night, and it slowly bloomed upon hearing the words.
Under the moonlight, he was like a pure moon god, leaning over with a smile, his chest pressed against his wrist, feeling the bloody kerchief in his skirt, and said with a smile, "Yes."
Three days later, the abandoned mausoleum of the former dynasty in Youzhou was dug up in several places by a group of tomb robbers, and a fire burned the abandoned mausoleum beyond recognition at night.
Three days later, a group of people arrived in Laizhou carrying the magic weapon Gods can't know, ghosts can't see.
This day is the day of the "King of Laizhou".Yan Xi endured seeing Shang Baiheng for six days, and finally returned to the Imperial Tomb early this morning.
Imperial Mausoleum Xiyuan, front yard.
"Sister Nanyan!" Yan Ling'er threw herself into Chunyu Nanyan's arms.
Chunyu Nanyan stroked Yan Ling'er's hair gently, and said with a gentle smile, "His Royal Highness has grown taller again. Are you still learning how to shoot arrows? How is your schoolwork?"
Yan Ling'er said proudly: "What can't this princess do?"
Chunyu Nanyan supported her on the shoulders, nodded her head cooperatively and said: "The princess is gifted and intelligent, and she can learn everything. Nan Yan admires Her Highness so much."
Yan Ling'er was very satisfied with being teased, she giggled and leaned on Chunyu Nanyan's shoulder, smiling intimately.
Chunyu Nanyan looked down at Yan Ling'er's profile, smiling sweetly.
Chunyu Nanyan has come to see Yan Ling'er often these years.
At the beginning, everyone was a little embarrassed by the visit of the "Prince Princess".But Chunyu Nanyan behaved generously and acted frankly. She never took the initiative to approach Yan Xi when she came to Huangling, but she cared about the little princess who lost her mother like a big sister.
It can be said that Yan Ling'er's secrets about the growth of women are all taken care of by this unrelated sister.
Over the years, even Yan Xi respected Chunyu Nanyan sincerely.
"Sister Nanyan, I embroidered a sachet for you." Yan Ling'er took out a treasure as if offering a treasure, she was a little shy, and said proudly with her chin deliberately raised.
Chunyu Nanyan took the sachet as if she had found a treasure, and she was full of smiles, and she was slightly surprised: "Isn't Linger unwilling to imitate female celebrities? Why is she still embroidering?"
Yan Ling'er said angrily: "This princess specially learned to embroider things for you, why, how dare you not like it?"
"The princess made it with her own hands. Nan Yan is naturally overjoyed." Chunyu Nanyan smiled, and naturally took Yan Ling'er's hand, holding it under the light, but saw several spots on the white and lovely fingertipsEyes of needles, lowered eyebrows and narrowed eyes, said, "It's just the princess's golden branches and jade leaves, don't hurt your body, hair and skin."
Yan Ling'er was always held in the palm of Chunyu Nanyan's hand and coaxed. She was sensitive to the sudden coldness of the other party, and she was a little at a loss. She pouted and said, "Sister, you are fierce."
Chunyu Nanyan sighed, and when she raised her eyes, there was a smile in her eyes: "How could Nanyan be willing to hurt you, now Yan just feels sorry for the princess getting hurt. The princess is everyone's favorite, and you should cherish yourself even more."
Chunyu Nanyan's tone was so gentle, it comforted Yan Ling'er's helplessness, Yan Ling'er also softened her voice, and asked, "Is this palace also sister's favorite?"
Chunyu Nanyan stared at her for a long time before saying slowly: "The princess is Nanyan's supreme treasure."
The two reconciled in this way, and went to Yan Ling'er's boudoir together.
Walking to the gate of the inner courtyard, Chunyu Nanyan saw Shang Baiheng standing under the eaves.
The other party looked directly at her, obviously coming here to wait for her.
"The princess waits for me in the room first. I have something to talk to my husband." Chunyu Nanyan explained to Yan Ling'er in a warm voice, and then asked Lianxin to apply medicine to Yan Ling'er's finger.
After doing so, she finally sent the princess off. She stood still a few steps away and saluted, "Nanyan has met Mr. Shang."
Shang Baiheng returned a salute: "Miss Chunyu, you are being polite. I have some questions that I can't understand, and I hope you can help."
"Nanyan has been waiting for your inquiry for a long time," Chunyu Nanyan calmly stood still, with a slight smile on his face, "I will tell you everything I know, and I will say everything."
When Yan Xi arrived at the Imperial Mausoleum, Wang An saw him, and reported the events of the past few days in the Imperial Mausoleum one by one with a smile on his face, and then reported: "Miss Chunyu came today and said that she has something important to discuss with Your Highness."
"Understood. Is she in the Linger's Courtyard? Did you say you want to talk about something..." Yan Xi thought that Chunyu Nanyan specially picked the day of "Yan Xi" country, and suddenly understood, and then said: "INow that I know what she is going to say, I will go to her first, and then I will go to the guard of honor of the Kingdom of Inspection."
Yan Xi walked quickly, turned out of an old corridor, and listened to the conversation of a man and a woman over there.
"To tell the truth, Mr. Shang, since I can remember, I have known that I am the candidate for the crown princess." Chunyu Nanyan said blatantly, "Since I was a child, my family has asked me to study books such as "Women's Training" and "Women's Commandments".I've searched and searched, but can't find an answer."
Shang Baiheng was slightly puzzled, frowned and said, "What did Miss Chunyu ask?"
On the other side of the corridor, Yan Xi couldn't help but pause, thinking: These two people are just nodding acquaintances on weekdays, how could they get together to talk?
Here, Chunyu Nanyan said: "These books are full of teaching me to be respectful to my father, husband, and brother. I used to think that being respectful is to gain reliance, and with reliance, I can be at ease. I would like to ask Mr.If one day I really become the middle palace, as Da Jing's most honorable daughter, will I be able to be at ease?"
Shang Baiheng cautiously did not answer.
Chunyu Nanyan chuckled lightly: "The fortune teller said that I was born in the middle palace, sir, do you know how ridiculous this is? Five generations of Chunyu's generals died in battle for generations, and those who lived were also cautious. They have survived to this day, and there is no brother in the family.", Only one of my daughters can get such a middle palace fate."
Shang Baiheng lowered his voice: "Miss Chunyu is presumptuous."
"If you don't say something out of your head, I'm afraid that my husband won't believe me." Chunyu Nanyan said in a deep voice, "Now that I have handed over the nomination certificate to my husband, I wonder if my husband will believe me?"
Shang Baiheng refused to tell the truth: "I'm not talented, I don't understand what Miss Chunyu is talking about."
"I choose a good man as a match, and you choose a good tree to live in." Chunyu Nanyan said unhurriedly, "We are doing the same thing, you and I are both high-stakes gamblers. People in Jingdu are ups and downs, and Nanyan is thinking day by day."Thinking at night, no one can say anything, only my husband can understand me."
Shang Baiheng's voice was calm: "Miss Chunyu sits firmly on the high platform, there is no need to be in danger."
Chunyu Nanyan said calmly: "Mr. Sanyuan is the first, and his success is just around the corner. Dare I ask why you have been dormant in the suburbs where no one cares about it for five years? Besides, is today's high platform tomorrow's execution ground? Mr. Shang is willing to teach His Highness, Nan Yan implores sir to teach me too."
When Chunyu Nanyan spoke so clearly, Shang Baiheng finally relaxed his brows, and he saluted and said, "Miss Chunyu is high-minded, it's because of narrow-mindedness."
"Mister understands people." Chunyu Nanyan replied, "I am just doing my best, no more painstaking efforts than Mr."
Shang Baiheng asked again: "I still have one thing I don't understand, if you feel abrupt, Miss Chunyu can not answer."
Chunyu Nanyan thought for a moment, then she showed a clear smile: "If Mr. asked the question I thought, Nanyan should tell the truth."
Shang Baiheng thought it over and said: "His Royal Highness has learned from the pain of losing his mother. These years, he has been strict in self-cultivation and has no other distractions. Miss Chunyu said that she should choose a lover as a match. If she only seeks the righteousness of husband and wife, there is room;, I'm afraid..."
Chunyu Nanyan pulled her long hair from her sideburns, and smiled meaningfully: "I thought my attitude was very clear these years, but I don't think even my husband understands it."
