My friends are all over the world

On the stone steps of Chengchao Palace, Chong Yuan held Lin Xin's hand, took his hand again, and covered it with both hands.

"Why are your hands so cold?"

Lin Xinxin thought, let's make a deal, if you soak in the water all day, your hands will be even colder.

Chong Yuan didn't realize it, it was like a child found an interesting new toy, he held his hand and played with it for a while with great interest.

Zhong Yuan had no intention of letting him go, and even wanted him to stay, but he didn't know how to speak.

When he let go, Lin Xin withdrew his hand and bowed to him: "If there is nothing else, Lin Xin will take his leave first."

Holding on to the bamboo stick, he slowly walked down the stone steps.

Hu Rong, who was at the bottom of the steps, sweated for him, and quickly stepped forward to help him.

At this moment, light snow fell in the sky, and the snow particles scattered on Lin Xin's shoulders and hair. Chong Yuan glanced at it, then turned his gaze back.

He turned his head and saw Nan Hua smiling with his head down.

Zhong Yuan frowned: "What are you laughing at?"

Nanhua laughs at Zhong Yuan's duplicity, but laughs at Lin Xin unmoved.

But he dared not say it.

Chong Yuan asked again: "Nanhua, why are his hands so cold?"

Nan Hua said: "If you don't eat well, wear little clothes, and your foundation is weak, of course your hands will get cold."

"What's the relationship between him and that kid?"

"About friends."

"I also want to..."

But Nanhua asked: "Dijun, do you like him? You want to go through the calamity of love with him."

Chong Yuan flicked his sleeves and turned back: "I don't want to, I just think he is very clean."

Very clean means that he seems to be a prisoner in the Wu Palace, but in fact it is very simple.

To his courtiers, he is gentle and lovely; to those he dislikes - such as himself, he is cold.He laughs when he is happy, and when Zhong Yuan provokes him, he is annoyed, his first reaction is not to be low-key and play small, and he doesn't know how to play low-handedly.

He is very good, unlike everyone else Zhong Yuan has seen.

On the other side, Hu Rong led Lin Xin back to the place where the Yue prisoners lived.

A group of them lived in a remote palace that had been abandoned for a long time.

Mr. Hu Li reheated the food twice, and when they came back, he told them to eat quickly.

"Why is it so late today?"

Hu Rong glanced at Lin Xin, and said unfairly: "When you meet a lunatic, you grab His Highness's hand and don't let go."

Lin Xin sat in front of the table, picked up the bowl and chopsticks: "Rong Rong, be careful with your words."

Hu Rong pursed his lips, and picked up some food for Lin Xin, suddenly he was a little surprised: "Your Highness, add food today."

Hu Li said: "It's brother who added food to you, what are you calling 'Your Highness'?"

Lin Xin asked with a smile, "Did the dining room buy too much today?"

"No." Hu Li said, "A young master passed by us today and saw that we were having a hard time, so he sent someone to give us something."

"We should thank him, did you ask the young master's name?"

"Qiwu."

Later, when Lin Xin was about to make his bed and go to bed, Hu Rong knocked on the door outside and called out.

He came in with the quilt in his arms: "Your Highness, it's been too cold these days, brother asked me to sleep with you."

Hu Li yelled outside: "Bullshit, I clearly let you sleep with your sixth brother."

Hu Rong quickly closed the door, and threw his quilt onto Lin Xin's couch: "Your Highness, let me make the bed."

As early as the beginning of autumn, Lin Xin asked them to cover the doors and windows with paper. Although they couldn't keep out the cold, they could still keep out the wind.

He and Hu Rong covered two quilts, and Hu Rong held his hands in his bosom, rubbed them vigorously, and exhaled vigorously.

Lin Xin wanted to withdraw his hand: "Rongrong, no need, go to sleep."

Hu Rong pressed his hand, thought for a while, and warmed him with demon power.

Lin Xin stepped in without knowing it, and sighed with a smile: "You are such a small stove."

Hu Rong also frowned.

When he was about to fall asleep, Hu Rong touched the corners of his eyes and eyebrows with his fingertips.

"Your Highness, when I grow up, can I marry you as your husband?"

Lin Xin closed his eyes and did not answer.

At this time, Hu Rong hadn't been practicing for a long time, and the little cultivation he had accumulated during the day was used for Lin Xin to keep warm.

When he woke up the next day, he found that his fox ears and tail were exposed, and the tail was still wrapped around Lin Xin's hand.

Lin Xin noticed it, but he pretended not to know, and rubbed Hu Rong's head with a smile: "The ball of yarn is tangled in your hand, Rong Rong, I can't see it, you take it away."

Hu Rong put his tail away and threw himself into his arms.

When his elder brother had accumulated merits and returned to the Fox Clan, he really wanted to bring His Highness back with him.

In the evening of the next day, Lin Xin went to Chengchao Palace to light the lamps.

This time Chong Yuan wanted to hold his hand again, but he dodged it.

Unexpectedly, Chong Yuan grabbed his thin wrist directly and pulled him up the stone steps.

Lin Xin was asked to sit in front of the case——

eat.

Chong Yuan sat in front of him and told him: "The one on the left."

So Lin Xin touched it with his left hand and picked up a piece of dessert.

"Right hand."

Lin Xin stretched out his right hand and probed.

In the end, Chong Yuan started by himself, scooped out a bowl of soup for him, stuffed it into his hands, and asked him to hold it in both hands.

He didn't order, Lin Xin just held it.

He said "drink" before Lin Xin lowered his head and took a small sip.

After eating, I sat and rested for a while—a silence with nothing to say.

Chong Yuan put another small bowl in his hand: "Drink."

Lin Xin smelled it and almost spit out all the food he ate.

He had heard before that the palace was quite humane. Before executing a person, they would give him a good meal before sending him to die.

Lin Xin thought, he must have offended Chong Yuan last night, he was going to kill him.

As he thought about it, his eyes were reddened by the hot air.

Holding the bowl, he really didn't want to drink the poison.

Seeing this, Chong Yuan no longer cared about the airs he was holding, and sat beside him, so as not to die, he pressed Lin Xin's eyes again.

"What happened to you?"

He always thought that Lin Xin's eyes were red and he would heal with a touch.

It happened that Nan Hua passed by and saw Lin Xin holding the bowl, and reminded him intentionally: "Lin Xin, that is a tonic specially prescribed by the national teacher for you. It is good for your body. It is more effective to drink it while it is hot."

Lin Xin knew that he was wrong, so he quickly lowered his head and drank the medicine.

But he still didn't know what the national teacher wanted to do.

When he was about to leave, Chong Yuan put a big cloak on him.

It's very warm, and it's trimmed with fur.

It was like this for three days in a row, when Lin Xin came to Chengchao Palace to light the lamps, Chong Yuan didn't wait for him to finish his work, he pulled him in, fed him and drank tonics.

Before leaving on the third day, Lin Xin had the courage to beg him, asking him if he could let him take the rest of the dim sum away.

Chong Yuan said: "The clothes I gave you for the first time, did you give it to someone else?"

Lin Xin dared not speak.

It was indeed given away, to Old Official Pu.Old official Pu is getting older and more afraid of the cold than him, so he gave it to him.

Chong Yuan asked again: "Did you give away the clothes I gave you yesterday?"

Lin Xin still didn't dare to speak.

Still gave it away.

Chong Yuan was a little annoyed, and said coldly: "You come back."

Lin Xin didn't know where he was going back, and he didn't dare to provoke him, so he could only nod along with his intention.

Seeing his ignorant appearance, I knew he didn't understand.

Chong Yuan explained again: "Come back to me, and I will send snacks and clothes to those around you."

This deal is a bargain, Lin Xin nodded hastily.

Chong Yuan put the big cloak on him again, Lin Xin was holding the big food box, ready to go back.

It was snowing outside again, so Zhong Yuan helped him put on the hood.

While tidying up the fluff on the brim of the hat, Lin Xin said softly, "Thank you, my lord."

Chong Yuan's hand paused, and then he stuffed the bamboo stick into his hand.

When Lin Xin pushed the door to go out, Chong Yuan saw Hu Rong waiting outside.

He stepped on Lin Xin's clothes.

"Are you friends with the one outside?"

"……Yes."

"You and I are friends too?"

Lin Xin originally wanted to say "Don't dare", but he didn't dare to disobey this man's words, so he had no choice but to respond in the end: "...Okay."

"En." Zhong Yuan loosened his clothes and walked to his side, "Since that's the case, as a friend, I can send you back."

He pulled Lin Xin out.

With the same question, Zhong Yuan asked Hu Rong again: "Are you friends with him?"

"No." Hu Rong said seriously, "When I grow up, I will marry Your Highness."

Chong Yuan turned to look at Lin Xin, Lin Xin just took it as a child joking and didn't take it seriously.

Zhong Yuan frowned slightly: "Then you should not grow up."

It's been a winter like this.

Chong Yuan fed Lin Xin with tonics every day, and Lin Xin grew taller and his face became rounder.

He was still serving in Chengchao Palace, followed behind Chongyuan in a daze, and left at night.

That night, after Lin Xin left, Nan Hua said, "Emperor, to be honest, you and Lin Xin will go through the calamity together, right?"

Chong Yuan soaked in the pool, flicked the dragon's tail, and didn't speak.

Through the screen, Nanhua said again: "Dijun, what about young master He Qiwu?"

"Master Hetang Crane?"

After asking a few more questions, he finally asked, "Lin Xin?"

Chong Yuan thought for a while, and said, "It's not impossible."

The next morning, Lin Xin came to Chengchao Palace.

Chong Yuan was soaking in the pool, Lin Xin knelt and sat by the pool, lowering his head quietly.

Chong Yuan came out of the pool, put on his clothes, brushed his hair, and sat down beside him.

Lin Xin became more courageous towards him, and asked, "Does your lord want some tea?"

Chong Yuan didn't answer, and the two sat quietly for a while.

Suddenly, Chong Yuan seemed to say casually: "Last night, Nanhua asked me to go through the calamity with you."

Nan Hua, who happened to pass by, slipped, why did you say it directly?

Lin Xin didn't understand: "What calamity?"

"I think it's okay to go through calamities with you. But I don't understand, so I'm asking you." Chong Yuan said, "How much do you know about love and love in the world?"

Lin Xin shook his head: "I don't understand."

After a short pause, he said, "But I have a friend who writes scripts, he should understand, I can... get some volumes of scripts from him."

Nanhua finally understood, Dijun didn't understand at all, what the hell is Qingjie!

A few days later, Lin Xin brought a few volumes of story books from Jiang Yuelang.

Lin Xin couldn't see it himself, but according to Jiang Yuelang, these are beautiful love stories that are lingering to the extreme.

That day when Chong Yuan came out of the pool, Lin Xin knelt and sat on the side as before.

Chong Yuan put on his clothes and lay down beside him, with his head resting on Lin Xin's lap.He didn't feel that Lin Xin was uncomfortable at all, while flipping through the story book, he would read it out from time to time and ask for his opinion.

Lin Xin found some work for himself, he fumbled for a clean white towel, and helped Chong Yuan wipe his hair.

After reading the script for a while, Chong Yuan called him: "Lin Xin."

"What's the matter, my lord?"

"You all have surnames, that Hu Rong's surname is Hu, and your friend's surname is Jiang."

"Yes."

After getting along with each other for so many days, Lin Xin somewhat understood the mind of Master Guoshi.

"Adults too?"

"Ah."

Lin Xin continued to help him brush his hair, thought for a while, and whispered, "Then the surname is 'Gu'."

Chong Yuan supported his head and looked at him: "Why?"

"In the recent popular words and phrases, those people are all surnamed 'Gu'. If adults want to find out about love and love, it is better to be surnamed 'Gu'."

Lin Xin just said it casually, but Chong Yuan thought it was very interesting, he turned the word "Gu" over and over again, and read it twice.

Lin Dao said, "Gu Chongyuan."

"Gu Yuan."

As soon as Gu Yuan raised his hand, he tore off his blindfolded white silk.

He wrapped the white silk around his fingertips, winding it round and round.
