General

After grooming well, Lan Jing finally limped out of the dormitory enduring the discomfort. Finally, she did not forget to cast a reproachful glance at Li Xuan who was waiting for him at the door, and silently cursed in her heart: I said no, slow down , show mercy under the knife, and finally tortured myself so badly, even though it was still at the time...but I couldn't bear it afterwards! !

Li Xuan, as if he didn't see it, lightly fastened the cloak tightly on him, and stretched out his warm palm in front of him.Lan Jing froze for a moment, and immediately forgot all about her "ex-revenge" and put her "paw" in the master's hand like a puppy wagging its tail.

……

After finally moving to the Nuan Pavilion, when she opened the door, she saw Lan Jin sitting at a square table crying like pear blossoms and rain.

"What's going on?!" Lan Jing glared at Ling Feng fiercely, and said in a low voice.

"Uh..." Ling Feng looked blankly at Lan Jin, then at Lan Jing, and said innocently, shaking his lips, "This subordinate really doesn't know! Princess Jin rushed out the door early in the morning , cried and went straight to Chenghuan Hall, the subordinates really couldn't stop her..."

"They said you were sick!" Lan Jin seemed afraid that Lan Jing would get angry with Ling Feng, she hastily wiped away her tears and said loudly, "Last night I dreamed that brother Jing was dying...just with...just with brother Xuan back then Same! Woooooo..."

"Lan Jin, what are you talking about?!" Lan Jing was stunned for a moment, suddenly felt that the words were strange, she hurriedly bent down, held her shoulders with both hands, stared into her eyes and asked loudly, "Xuan... What's wrong with the emperor?" ?!"

"Brother Xuan was seriously ill once and was about to die. Uncle Prince Regent and an old man with a white beard locked me in the palace and refused to let me leave." Lan Jin's big bright eyes were suddenly tinged with fear, and she shivered. recalled, "The old man's eyes are particularly scary, like poisonous snakes, looking at people is gloomy..."

"Why didn't I know about such a big thing?!" Lan Jing was so startled that her whole body froze, and even her eyes turned blood red in anger.The fingers holding her shoulder didn't dare to use too much force, but they couldn't help shaking desperately.

"At that time you were playing in the south, and you had been away for several months. When you came back, brother Xuan had already woken up." Lan Jin sniffled and continued in a low voice, "They only said that brother Xuan was infected with the epidemic. Anyone who saw it, even the two imperial physicians who made the initial diagnosis and treatment disappeared afterward. Only I... sneaked to take a look, and at that time...at that time..."

"Brother Xuan is really about to die..." Lan Jin choked up a few times, and the corners of his mouth trembled a little: "Later, they found out that I was locked up, and no one was allowed to see... At that time... I really I'm so scared!"

Lan Jing looked at her teary eyes, and was stunned for a long time before finally recovering, he gently stroked her long black hair, tried to pretend to be relaxed and comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid, It's all over... Aren't we all fine now?"

well...

I'm alright, but Lan Xuan... is he really alright? !

After being on the throne for many years, his body seemed to be getting thinner and thinner, and even his spirit was getting weaker and weaker year after year.Who can tell me what happened to him for so long? !

"Lanjing."

A low and soft call interrupted his thoughts, Li Xuan walked slowly to his side, and calmly stroked his shoulder, "Let the princess go back to rest, she will be relieved to see that you are safe."

Lan Jing raised her eyes and stared at him quietly for a moment, then nodded knowingly, gently wiped away the tears on Lan Jin's face with her fingertips, and comforted her earnestly: "Go back and have a rest first, and come to accompany me after lunch." Let me eat together, okay?"

"Yeah." At this time, Lan Jin had quietly stopped her tears, and her mood was much calmer than before. She nodded slightly in response, and she was unexpectedly obedient and rarely seen on weekdays.

Seeing Lan Jing's gaze, Ling Feng nodded immediately, escorted Princess Jin, who was still sniffling, out of the Nuan Pavilion, and walked slowly out of the courtyard.

The figures of the two gradually disappeared into the early morning mist. Li Xuancai returned to Lanjing from the window, frowned, and asked calmly, "What do you think?"

"If there is no ghost, why would you dare not see people? How could you kill the two imperial doctors who were first diagnosed and treated?" Lan Jing clenched her fists tightly, her knuckles rattling in anger.

"Then how to explain Lan Xuan's recovery?" Li Xuan curled his lips slightly, and continued to ask.

"If brother Xuan is dead, how can they get away with it?" Lan Jing snorted coldly, and sneered bitterly, "I'm afraid it's just some kind of chronic poison that will wear him down slowly!"

"If the current emperor dies, the empress's son who is less than four years old will inherit the grand ceremony." Lan Jing looked at Li Xuan seriously, gritted her teeth and said slowly, "A brat who doesn't understand anything , is much easier to control than Brother Huang!"

Li Xuan frowned, thinking over and over again what he just said.In recent years, Lanxuan has indeed cultivated power silently, waiting for the opportunity to regain power. It is not difficult to see the clues from his reuse of Chu Xiao, his efforts to protect the princess, and even personally preside over the imperial examination to select newcomers.If the regent intends to establish a new king in order to stabilize his position, it is not impossible.

Li Xuan looked towards Lanjing solemnly, and asked in a low voice: "Then what are you going to do?"

"..." Lan Jing's eyes flashed a touch of pain, his lips moved slightly, he seemed to struggle for a long time with hesitation, and then slowly lowered his eyes and sighed, "I have no power and power now, so what can I... ...He is in the dark, I am in the light, let alone the outside now, even this huge King Jing's mansion hides so many pairs of eyes..."

Li Xuan didn't say any more, but slowly walked to the window with eyes full of helplessness, raised his hand to cover the mahogany window edge carved with exquisite patterns, and smiled self-deprecatingly.

No matter how beautiful the cage is, they are just caged birds that are played by others. Even if their wings are broken, they have no ability to resist.Maybe when that day really comes, they can only curl up next to each other with blood and tears, and whine loudly at the person outside the cage!

……

It was late at night, and a gloomy candle light quietly leaked out from the window edge of the dormitory, and was broken by the exquisite wooden carvings in front of the white marble floor, spreading a little bit of gentle warm yellow.

Lan Zheng was wearing a gorgeous dark purple uniform and walked slowly from the spotless stone steps to the outside of the hall. His soft golden silk brocade boots stepped on the ground without making a sound.

"My lord..." The captain of the Royal Forest Army who was guarding outside the hall stepped forward, lowered his eyes respectfully, and saluted with cupped fists, "Please allow me..."

Lan Zheng's deep black eyes looked at him quietly, raised his hand slightly, stopped his intention to report, and slightly curled the corners of his lips as he looked at the figure reflected on the window paper.

The earth dragon was burned in the sleeping hall, and a charcoal fire was gathered, and a soft fragrance was quietly emitted from the exquisite incense burner carved from white jade.The gilded sandalwood low table was full of memorials, and Lan Xuan still leaned against the table as usual, looking at each book carefully.

Although he will carefully review these memorials, they will still be sent to the regent in batches according to the degree of urgency. If they agree, they will not be changed. If there is any change, the courtiers will follow the new order wisely.

But despite this, Lan Xuan will still read all the memorials meticulously, and has never slacked off over the years.

Suddenly, a dark shadow was quietly cast on the table, Lan Xuan shook her fingers, and suddenly looked forward, only to see that the regent was standing by the table with downcast eyes, silently looking at herself with a half-smile.

"Huang...Uncle Huang..." Lan Xuan was obviously taken aback. After a while of scalp numbness, he murmured cautiously, "Didn't you go back to the palace today..."

"Yeah." Lan Zheng looked down at him, that strong figure carried an indescribable sense of oppression, "It's time for Lan Jin to take her back to the palace, as a princess, what's the point of spending all day at her elder brother's house?" System?"

"I'll let Chu Xiao pick it up tomorrow..." Lan Xuan didn't dare to look him in the eyes, and replied in a low voice while avoiding his cold gaze.

"Yeah." Lan Zheng snorted in satisfaction when he saw how obedient he was at the moment.He snatched the imperial pen he was holding tightly and threw it on the table casually. The wide sleeves embroidered with dark patterns of gold thread inadvertently brushed across the table, and the memorials piled up next to him fell to the ground with a "crackling" and "rest!" Bar."

Lan Xuan froze in place empty-handed, her handsome face raised slightly in astonishment, she was stunned for a while, and then raised her eyes to look at him with a pleading face: "Uncle Huang, I still have a few more books to finish, can I ……Wait a mininute?"

The corners of Lan Zheng's mouth curled up slightly, his strong fingers pinched his chin tightly, he narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a low voice, "What do you think?"

Lan Xuan had to look up into his eyes, the almost breathtaking black pupils reflected a gloomy glimmer in the candlelight.

"I... um..." Lan Xuan seemed to want to struggle, but Lan Zheng kissed his lips fiercely. Lan Xuan let out a low muffled snort, but did not dare to resist at all, the fingers pinched his chin The pain and the feeling of suffocation also made him gradually dizzy in the helplessness.

Lan Xuan felt a wave of heat rushing towards his face, dragging him into the boundless abyss.His hand rested on Lan Zheng's chest, but he couldn't resist his strength.Lan Xuan's bright eyes were gradually covered with a layer of water mist, and he desperately turned his face away, begging with a trembling voice: "Uncle Huang, don't..."

"Are you seducing me?!" Lan Zheng smiled wickedly, "The more you know, the more excited I am!"

Lan Xuan fell into Lan Zheng's arms fiercely, gasped in shock, and pleaded with tears in her eyes: "Uncle...uncle, please let me go...we are so unethical..."

"In Longxiao Kingdom, I am etiquette and ethics!" Lan Zheng leaned over and whispered in his ear, jokingly, "Recently...you seem to like disobeying me more and more!"

"I, I didn't... Uncle Emperor... ah!!" Fiery kisses covered the corners of his lips again, and Lan Xuan swallowed back the excuse that was on the verge of his lips.

Lan Zheng slowly raised his head, raised his hand to wipe away the tears that fell on his face, and said with a low voice, "If this continues, believe me, there will be better things waiting for you."
