I heard that we were passionate in previous lives

Li Yin and Li Yuan were chatting and laughing, but the eunuch hurriedly said: "Back to the emperor, the concubine Li was scratched by the little fox sent by the emperor the day before yesterday, and now the imperial doctor has been passed on to treat her. The concubine Li was frightened, but there is nothing left." Seriously, Concubine Li was afraid that the emperor would be worried, so she specially sent servants to the emperor to reply."

Li Yin frowned, and said displeasedly: "Why didn't you come to report earlier when something like this happened, is there no messenger in the palace?"

The eunuch just ran over from Concubine Li, and he still hadn't calmed down, panting, "Going back to the emperor, it's Concubine Li who is afraid that the emperor will delay the court affairs because of worrying about her, now it's okay to send a servant to report back."

Li Yin's frowning brows loosened a little, and he asked again: "Then can you deal with that fox?"

The eunuch knelt down and bowed his head, carefully said: "Because the fox was rewarded by the emperor, even if it went mad for a while today, Concubine Li is not willing to punish the fox, she just keeps it in the cage and still feeds it with water and food."

Li Yin softened his tone when he heard Concubine Li behave like this: "Although foxes are rewarded by me, a fox that hurts people always hides hidden dangers. If you dare to scratch Concubine Li today, you may hurt others tomorrow. Deal with it."

The eunuch was about to step back after receiving the order, Li Yuan who had been silent beside him said, "Your Majesty, I have a wish, and I want the Emperor to fulfill it."

"Why?"

Li Yuan looked at the eunuch who hadn't stepped down, and said: "I want to ask the emperor to give me that fox. I usually live alone in the mansion. I heard that the emperor's fox is quite human, so I want to ask the emperor to give me that fox." Your Majesty bestowed it on me, I wonder if your Majesty can fulfill the wish of this humble official?"

Li Yin said with a smile: "It's just a fox, it's not perfect, it's just that this fox is in danger of hurting someone, if it hurts the emperor..."

Li Yu also smiled and said: "It's okay, since you are greedy for the spirit of the fox, you have to suffer from it. I only hope that the emperor will fulfill it."

Li Yin waved his hand and said: "The emperor said so, how can I not fulfill it." Then he turned to the eunuch and said: "Ren Cheng, bring that fox over to King An, close it carefully, and don't let it escape. "

"Hey, the slave is going right away, but Empress Li..."

Li Yin waved his hand indifferently and said: "Since she said that there is nothing wrong with her, let's go there later."

"Whoo!"

Ren Cheng withdrew, Li Yin was still chatting and laughing with Li Yuan, this little episode did not break up his conversation.

Li Zhen ordered someone to take over the cage from Wu Cheng's hand. Inside, the white fox was nestling dying. It had long since lost its original spirit, and its body was slowly undulating, showing that it was still alive, that's all.

When Ren Cheng handed the fox over, he looked up at Li Yuan, as if he wanted to say something, but quickly lowered his head without saying anything.The carriage creaked away from the palace gate, and after turning a corner, Li Yuan ordered from inside the carriage: "Bring the fox in."

The guard hurriedly handed in the cage next to him, and Wu Yin inside took it and put it in the carriage. Looking at Li Yuan who was sitting quietly with his eyes closed, he asked in puzzlement, "My lord, why do you want such a fox from the emperor?" ?”

Li Yuan opened his eyes, looked at him, then turned his gaze to the fox still in the cage, and said softly: "It's just that I can't bear to have such a little fox ruin his life for nothing in the dirty palace struggle."

Wu Yin looked at Li Yuan who closed his eyes again, thoughtfully.

Back at the palace, Wu Yin carried the cage and followed behind Li Yuan, Li Yuan walked in front with his hands behind his back, his footsteps were a little soft, and his voice was also a little soft: "Let's put this fox in the study first, and think about how to deal with it tomorrow. "

"Study?" Wu Yin was stunned, there were many classics in the study, not to mention many famous scriptures, if the fox sneaked out in the middle of the night and started making trouble, the study would suffer.

Li Yuan stretched out his fingers and tapped his forehead, and repeated: "Let's put it in the study, this fox seems to have no strength to struggle, let's talk about it tomorrow."

Wu Yin responded, and had no choice but to carry the fox to the direction of the study.

The sky is clear and the night is bright, the moon hangs high, the wind blows and the shadows of the trees sway, and there is a faint light in the dark study room, which disappears only for a moment.

In the early morning, Li Yuan looked at the fox in the cage, it was still the same as yesterday, without any vitality.Wu Yin came in with water and raw meat, Li Yuan pointed at the table with his finger: "Let's put it here."

Li Yuan sent the meat into the cage bit by bit, but the fox didn't respond to the food as if it had died of life.

"My lord!" Seeing that Li Xuan was going to open the cage, Wu Yin hurriedly said, "What if this fox..."

"You're too careful." Li Xuan smiled, gently pushed aside the wooden peg on the cage, and held the meat in front of the fox. The little fox finally had movements other than breathing. At the beginning, he poked his nose and sniffed forward, as if to confirm whether the food in front of him was edible. After a while, the little fox stuck out his tongue and rolled the thin strip of meat from Li Yuan's hand into his mouth, chewing slowly, eyes Li also regained his spirit, and looked around, only to realize that he was no longer in the room burning with choking incense in the high palace walls.

Seeing that the fox didn't appear to be mad, on the contrary, he just ate the food in his hands obediently, Li Yuan felt a burst of emotion in his heart.

The scent of ink in the house and the unique natural smell of the green plants made the little fox feel at ease. After eating the food quietly and drinking some water, he hid in the corner of the cage, licking his fur while observing the surroundings environment of.

After a long time, not only did Li Xuan get acquainted with the fox, but Wu Yin also saw that the fox had no symptoms of madness at all. The fox's quiet and sensible behavior was obvious to all, and Wu Yin would sometimes praise the fox for being spiritual.

As time passed, the wooden pegs on the cage could not be closed anymore, and the little fox was free to come and go in this mansion. Li Yuan became more and more indulgent to the fox, and even moved the fox cage to his own house, and even ordered someone to make a fox for the fox. small nest.

Hu Yuan came in slowly, shaking his fan, and saw Li Xuan close the fan with a "snap" and smiled, "I heard that you asked the emperor for that little fox with aura that I told you about, bring it here quickly." let me see."

Li Yuan pointed to the empty cage and said, "I haven't seen it today, and I don't know where it went all day."

He said again: "You agreed last time to book the holy copybook, and I haven't seen you for a month, so it's not because you broke the agreement and hid from me."

Hu Yuan put down his folding fan, picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip and said with a smile, "So I'm such a person who doesn't believe what he says in your heart."

"Hey, I didn't say that, don't judge the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain!"

"Well, I've become a villain again. It seems that this friend should be careful, otherwise my reputation..." He took out a stack of papers from his sleeve and handed it to Li Zhen, "Look, I Such good intentions are so speculative."

When Li Xuan saw the copybook, his eyes lit up, and he reached out to take it, but Hu Yuan avoided him: "Just take it away, thanks to my hard work, I persuaded my father to take this copybook out. It’s a shame that I can’t even get a single “thank you”.”

Li Yu smiled and said: "Thank you so much Mr. Hu." But his movements were not slow, he took the copybook in Hu Yuan's hand, spread it out on the table, and savored it carefully.

Seeing that Li Xuan was obsessed with the copybook, Hu Yuan came out of the study with a fan, and Wu Yin from outside rushed to greet him: "Young Master Hu, what's the matter?"

Hu Yuan waved his hand, unfolded his fan and smiled slightly: "It's okay, I'm wandering around your palace by myself, I haven't been to the garden in your palace for a long time, I'll go and have a look today, and take a look at the Wei Ziyao I gave you the prince. Is it yellow?"

Wu Yin replied with a smile: "It's blooming, the flowers are big and bright, young master Hu can go and have a look."

Hu Yuan smiled and nodded, waving his fan and walking leisurely into the garden.

Wei Ziyao and Huang Kai's Zhengyan, Hu Yuan walked over and was about to lean over to take a closer look, but found a piece of white cloth protruding from behind the rockery in the center of the garden. Hu Yuan was surprised, thinking it was a servant girl in the mansion hiding behind the rockery, so he went shouted, "Is there anyone there?"

In just a moment, the white cloth disappeared. Hu Yuan was even more astonished. He walked over with ease and turned around the rockery, but found that there was no one there. "Is it my eyesight?" Hu Yuan muttered.

Back in the study, a white-haired fox was pacing in the study, as if it was the owner of the house, Li Xuan was completely oblivious to its behavior, Hu Yuan stretched out his folding fan to block the fox's path, but saw the fox look up Glancing at himself, as if staring at himself, Hu Yuan asked in surprise, "Li Yuan, is this the emperor's fox?"

Li Yuan turned over a page of copybooks, without raising her eyes: "Well, at the beginning, I didn't have much energy, but now that I've matured, I don't have to worry about people no matter how hard I work in the mansion."

"It looks pretty good. These eyes are indeed very powerful." The fox seemed to know that Hu Yuan was praising himself, and was about to go around Hu Yuan with his head held high, but Hu Yuan hugged him. Immediately struggled.

Hu Yuan hugged the fox, smiled and said to Li Yuan: "I have coveted this fox for a long time, why don't you lend me this fox to play for a while." When the fox heard this, he immediately turned his head to Li Yuan, looking forward to Li Yuan's return. answer.

Sure enough, although Li Yu still kept his eyes on the copybook, he shook his head.

The fox struggled even harder, so Hu Yuan had no choice but to put the fox down, and said regretfully, "Oh, you are not the beauty of a man, and I am the beauty of a king in vain." As soon as the fox landed, he ran away.

Hu Yuan looked at the shadow of the fox running away and shook his head, with a very regretful expression on his face.

Lu Li stood outside the Underworld, looking at the bright red Wangchuan River, his heart suddenly ached. Behind him, Demon Lord Bei Luo admired the pained look on Lu Li's face, and there was a hint of relief in his eyes.

"This is the underworld. Your friend's soul is inside. If you don't believe me, you can ask a ghost messenger. I can only send you here."

Lu Li frowned looking at the white bones and yellow sand by the Wangchuan River. The next moment, Bei Luo disappeared, and the pain in Lu Li's chest intensified.
