General

With Li Xuan in front and Lan Xuan in the back, the inn was very quiet at the moment, and there was a clear sound of footsteps in the slightly dark wooden stairwell.

Li Xuan strode out of the guest room on the second floor, but did not enter the door, but stood sideways at the door and nodded to Lan Xuan, signaling him to enter alone.

Lan Xuan raised her eyes, and looked at Li Xuan with some doubts, the corners of her eyes were slightly red, and there was still a thin layer of water mist in her clear eyes.

"arrive."

Li Xuan didn't understand the hesitation in Lan Xuan's eyes, but lowered his eyes slightly, and reminded him respectfully.

"En." Lan Xuan turned and pushed open the wooden door of the guest room, the charcoal fire was burning, the room was as warm as spring, and the mottled wooden floor was covered with the soft sunset in the afternoon.

He took a few steps forward slowly, and the door behind him was immediately and quietly closed.Looking around, there was a vague figure sitting beside the wooden table separated by the bamboo curtain, motionless, looking inexplicably familiar.

"Emperor...Uncle Emperor?"

Thinking of what Li Xuan said today, a thought that even he himself couldn't believe suddenly popped into his mind, his voice trembled a little, and his whole heart shrank into a ball.

Lan Xuan rushed to the door of the inner room in two steps, and lifted the bamboo curtain abruptly.Under the warm sunlight, Lan Zheng's majestic face appeared in front of his eyes.

Unlike in memory, he was smiling.

That kind of calm, gentle smile that seemed to comfort people's hearts was only seen when Lan Xuan was young.

"Aren't you... dead... dead?"

People were right in front of them, but Lan Xuan froze in place.He stammered and confirmed everything in front of him, and after great grief, he was overjoyed, which seemed unreal.

"It's just an escape trick planned by Li Xuan." Lan Zheng smiled self-deprecatingly, stood up, walked slowly in front of Lan Xuan, raised his hand to caress his cold cheek and whispered, "Xuan'er... makes you worry gone."

Hearing this long-lost address, Lan Xuan suddenly choked up, wrapped his hands around Lan Zheng's neck, threw himself into that firm embrace and cried bitterly: "Uncle Emperor...why...why are you so stupid... "

So stupid to hide everything from the whole world, and bear everything for him alone...

Lan Zheng's face was as calm as water, and there were not many waves to be seen.He just lightly hugged Lan Xuan's thin body tightly, kissed his soft hair lightly, and said seriously: "Xuan'er... In my heart, you are the purest treasure in the world. All dirty things, Bloody things, things that will hurt you, things that will cause you pain, I will bear it for you...Regardless of the cost..."

Lan Zheng held up his forehead, touched it with thin lips ambiguously, and slowly passed the warm breath across his face: "I just want you to remember that everything I have done is to keep you by my side , Good people or bad people, I don't care at all."

"But I care..." Lan Xuan raised his eyes to Lan Zheng, and shook his head desperately with tears in his eyes, "We are close relatives of uncles and nephews, how can we do these things that violate human relations?! In the past, as the emperor, I couldn't face it. People of Longxiao. Now that I have abandoned the country and the people, I will come under the Nine Springs, and I will have no face to meet my father and ancestors..."

"It's different now, Xuan'er!" Lan Zheng suddenly held Lan Xuan's shoulders tightly, pushed him a little away, stared into his eyes and said each word: "A few days ago, Lan Jing got a letter from you. In the imperial father's edict, it said that I do not have royal blood, so we are not uncles and nephews, and now we are not monarchs..."

"Xuan'er..." Lan Zheng called Lan Xuan softly, his bony fingers trembling slightly, in his eyes as deep as a deep pool, a kind of excitement that he had never seen before was quietly blooming, "From now on From now on, you will be mine, and forever only mine..."
