General

In the early spring, Vientiane is renewed, and the slender willow tips quietly add a touch of fresh green.

The weather is so nice, the sun is shining brightly, and even the morning breeze has a bit of spring in it.After so many days, things in the court were gradually getting on the right track, but Lan Jing was sitting alone in the courtyard of Prince Jing's mansion, frowning.

"Why such an ugly look?!" Li Xuan searched for Lan Jing all morning, and finally found him in the garden.At this moment, he was holding a secret report and sitting beside the rockery in a daze, not even aware of the dead leaves falling on him.

"Brother Huang is missing." Lan Jing turned her head and saw Li Xuan standing next to her, and gently raised the secret report in her hand, "The night Ling Feng brought Yuan Ming's confession, he left a note and left alone."

"What was written on the note?" Li Xuan took the secret report and slowly sat down beside Lanjing, noticing that the ground was cold and hard, he couldn't help frowning fiercely.

"Probably don't worry, and don't need to look for him." Lan Jing sighed lowly, maybe it's because of concern that it's messy, and she doesn't know what to do at this moment.

"Your Majesty's whereabouts are not difficult to guess, he must have gone to the northwest." Li Xuan lowered his eyes, glanced at the contents of the letter casually, and said lightly, "You just don't know what to do, do you?"

"En." Lan Jing nodded desperately, her amber eyes were covered with a layer of mist, which looked very moving, "I don't know if I should look for it? I found it... so what..."

Li Xuan pursed his lips, stroked his smooth hair, and comforted him in a low voice: "There is nothing in the army recently, you can just rest in the mansion, and I will take care of this matter for you."

"What should I do?" Lan Jing raised her head in confusion, and looked at him with puzzled eyes.

Li Xuan took advantage of the opportunity to hold his cheek, kissed his fair forehead lightly, and whispered in his ear: "Trust me."

……

Although it is an official road, but because there are no people in the area for a hundred miles, it will not be repaired for a long time.

With her luggage on her back, Lan Xuan rode a bay red horse galloping through the barren mountains.For the first time in my life, I faced this kind of life, eating and sleeping in the open, hungry and cold, the dry food I brought had already been eaten, but the next station was still far away.

He looked up to the distant sky, the setting sun had gradually set on the top of the mountain, showing an intoxicating glow, but there was no place to stay on the roadside except barren hills and dead trees.

I tossed and turned last night, but the more I thought about it, the more painful it became, until I opened the wooden window and let the night wind blow through my clothes, I was still suffocated badly.

For so many years, I seem to have been forced by the emperor, unable to resist.But only when he dreamed back at midnight, did he realize that it was just his escape from betrayal.

He disregarded the country, his hands were bloody, and he bore the infamy alone just to save himself.

But I fear him, hate him, and misunderstand him to bully the lord and fight for power and profit.

In the exiled place in the northwest, the forest is cold and bitter. The exiled prisoners dig mountains and dig rocks all day long, doing coolies that ordinary people cannot bear. Almost every day, some people are exhausted and collapse on the construction site.So coming here, it seems that I have avoided the death penalty, but it is just a painful life for a few more years...

How long can he last for Lan Zheng, a royal prince who has been pampered since childhood?

Thinking of this, Lan Xuan's heart trembled, and immediately added a few more whips, wanting the horse to run faster.He didn't know what he wanted to do to find Lan Zheng alone like he was crazy. Due to the destined blood relationship, they couldn't be together after all.Maybe, I just want to take a look and tell him that I already know everything...

The sky darkened little by little, even the wind became biting, the dry woods on the side of the road rustled, and the last ray of sunlight was gradually swallowed by darkness.

Lan Xuan was cold and hungry, and her body was so tired that she seemed to be falling apart.There is nowhere to stay around, and I am afraid of wild animals, so I have no choice but to drive all night, hoping to get out of this barren mountain as soon as possible.He curled up weakly on the horse's back, wrapped the rein tightly in his hands, closed his eyes, and let the horse go forward alone in a daze...
