Quick Travel: Saving the Cannon Fodder Male Supporting Role

Even if Li Changhuan ate all the people, Wuyou still didn't want to go to the palace banquet with her.

On the day of the palace banquet, Yang Sui Jin was sent to the East Palace early. He was wearing the gorgeous clothes newly made by Shangguan Hui, which made him look outstanding. The incident with the Liyang prefect had made him lose some weight. He came to pay a visit to Li Changhuan, and it happened that the two were having a meal. Li Changhuan thought of something and then looked at him carefully.

Wuyou also looked at him curiously. He knew that he was brought back from Meiling, but he did not follow him into the Eastern Palace. It was said that he was the son of Liyang Taishou. Now Taishou Yang only had this one son. The empress let him enter the Eastern Palace, and the meaning was actually very clear.

The Yang family is full of heroes, and the best compensation for this one left is undoubtedly to marry him to the princess. This will win over military generals who share the same stance as the Yang family and appease the people.

Wuyou couldn't tell what he felt in his heart. In fact, he didn't have that many feelings in his heart. He probably never had any delusions, so he didn't feel sad.

"Your Highness?" Li Changhuan didn't speak for a long time, so he had to remind him.

Li Changhuan looked at the person on the ground and said calmly, "Get up. Are you used to it these days?"

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I am doing well."

"That's good." Li Changhuan watched the man stand up, and some scenes from her previous dreams flashed through her mind. It seemed that there were some scenes about this person, but they were too trivial and she did not take them to heart.

"Go to the guest room and rest first. I will send someone to invite you later."

Yang Suijin stood up and said, "Thank you, Your Highness. I haven't thanked you for saving my life before. If it weren't for your life-saving grace, I would have died long ago..."

"I'm not alone." Li Changhuan said coldly: "It was Yan'er who saved you."

The nickname Wuyou is not nice after all. Ever since seeing that name on the indenture, Li Changhuan started to address him as "Yan'er", and others also followed suit and changed "Master Wuyou" to "Master Yan".

When he fell into their yard, it was only because Wuyou and Xiaoyu were there that they discovered in time that there was an extra person in the yard. Otherwise, after waiting for several hours, even if he was alive when he fell in, he would have frozen to death.

Yang Suijin followed suit and bowed to him: "Thank you, Master Yan, for saving me."

"Mr. Yang, you are too polite." Wuyou retracted his gaze, sat upright and looked at the person opposite him.

Li Changhuan's expression did not change much, he just said: "You can go down now."

"Yes."

Yang Suijin retreated. Li Changhuan looked at the person sitting opposite him and asked again, "Are you really not going with me today?"

"Didn't Your Highness promise me?"

Li Changhuan didn't want to push him too hard. Now was not the time to explain everything to the Queen Mother, so she said, "Then you stay here and don't go anywhere."

No worries, no response.

Tonight's palace banquet is very lively. All civil and military officials can come with their families. The palace maids are also treated quite well during festivals. Not only can they not be punished easily, but each palace also receives silver rewards. Everyone from top to bottom is in a joyous mood.

It was already dark when the families of civil and military officials entered the palace. Taihe Palace became lively and some candlelight could be seen in the East Palace.

The East Palace was relatively quiet as some people had been called away from other palaces due to a shortage of staff. Wuyou had dinner early and played bamboo cards with a few servants to pass the time.

Xiaoyu had just followed the others to the Hall of Supreme Harmony. When she came back, she rubbed her hands to keep warm and said enviously, "The Hall of Supreme Harmony is so lively, full of people. I even saw Chen..."

His tone faltered, Zhen Dan could tell something was wrong, smiled and pinched his face, saying, "You still dared to look around when we got to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, I shouldn't have let you go with me."

Wuyou thought about the past, it was all in the past, so he didn't take it to heart.

"When will His Highness be back?"

Zhen Dan said quickly, "After the banquet, I stayed with His Majesty to watch the New Year. I will be back after a while. I have to go to the Imperial Ancestral Temple to worship my ancestors at 3:00 pm tomorrow. The palace will be busy during the New Year. His Majesty specifically told you to rest early and not wait for her."

Wuyou nodded: "I know."

He said he wanted to rest early, but everyone inside and outside the palace was so jubilant that he couldn't sleep either. He hadn't been playing bamboo cards for long when a maid outside said that there would be fireworks at the gate of the inner city. Everyone rushed to watch. Only a servant he was not familiar with was left by his side.

Zhen Dan usually followed him, and a maid came in personally to call him. The Northern Yan Palace did not treat the palace maids harshly, nor did it require them to be heartless and ruthless. If the servant and the maid fell in love with each other, they could get married as long as the master nodded.

I heard that the maid worked under Lord Shangguan and was highly valued, and that she was a good future for Zhen Dan. Wuyou naturally did not want to be the one to break up the couple, so he took the initiative to let Zhen Dan go when he was hesitant.

He stood up and walked out, and the servant stood up as well. He said first, "I'm going to take a walk in the garden. It's too stuffy here. You don't have to follow me. It's cold outside."

The servant was not dressed as warmly as him, so he stayed in the house to watch over the stove. He was unwilling to go out. The young master wanted to take a walk by himself and was not happy for him to follow him. Besides, he was in the East Palace, so he thought nothing would happen.

He sat back and continued to doze off.

Wuyou walked out of the palace, and the cold wind blowing in his face instantly sobered him up. He stood in front of the corridor and looked at the flowers and trees in the yard. Because of the heavy snow a few days ago, they all looked wilted, and the frost hit the branches, which made them look quite bleak and sad.

The scenery of the world changes with one's mood. If one's heart is facing the sun, the dead trees in front of one's eyes will bloom in spring. If one's mood is bleak, the spring vitality will also turn into mud. The scenery of the four seasons will not change much year after year, but the changes in people's hearts are difficult to predict.

Wuyou walked along the corridor and listened to the noise outside. Unfortunately, it had nothing to do with him. Just as he was about to go back, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. He was startled and took a few steps back. Just as he was about to speak, the man rushed up and covered his mouth.

"Wuyou, it's me."

Wuyou was even more surprised. He stared at the person in front of him. Chen Huan was wearing a suit of official attire. Wuyou then remembered that she seemed to have some honors and an aunt in a high position. No wonder she was able to enter the palace.

Seeing that he had calmed down, Chen Huan pulled him behind a pillar. Behind them was a rockery covered with fresh snow. There was not much space in between, so the two of them were very close to each other, their breaths entangled with each other.

Wuyou was a little uncomfortable, leaned back slightly, lowered his voice and asked in surprise: "You, why are you here?"

"I came with my aunt." Chen Huan also spoke in a low voice: "Are you really here, Wuyou, how, how come you are with Diji?"

Wuyou hesitated for a moment and said, "That day at Meilang Temple, His Highness saw me and brought me back."

He omitted many stories. Chen Huan seemed to want to ask, but she also knew that this was not the place to talk. She said, "Empress Di is cruel by nature. You can't stay here. I will take you away."

As she said this, she was about to take Wuyou away.

Wuyou stood still and even tried to break free from her shackles.

Chen Huan looked at him in confusion: "Wuyou, you..."
