Fast through the white moonlight in the sky

"It seems that this sword is very suitable for you." Yan Shanbai said: "Coincidentally speaking, this sword is also an ancient sword. The sword was forged by a famous swordsman in the previous dynasty. It was made by him during his lifetime. The last one... and the name of this sword is called 'Xi Bo', which is the same as the name of this palace."

He also handed the sandalwood box he was holding to Lin Weiyu and said: "The first owner of 'Xipu' was a prince of Dayu, and the name of this palace is also derived from his beloved sword. But the prince passed away when he was young, and he didn’t leave any traces in the history, so it’s not surprising if you don’t understand.” Hearing this, Lin Weiyu suddenly woke up about the story about the ancient locust tree in Xipu Palace He thought that the prince Yan Shanbai was talking about was probably the owner of that locust tree.

"If you don't mind, you can also change the name of the sword yourself. Anyway, they are dead things, and there is nothing special about them."

Lin Weizhen shook his head, he took the sandalwood box and put the sword back.Although Yan Shanbai didn't say anything, he also knew that this sword must be very precious.

The man under the umbrella frowned and looked at him, Lin Weiyu pursed his lips, "'Xi Bo'... is too precious." In five years, although he didn't know how many things he had received from Yan Shanbai, of course he also understood the affection , I am afraid that I will never be able to afford it in my life.But his intuition still told him that this sword is absolutely extremely precious, and its significance to Yan Shanbai is extraordinary.

"I don't have martial arts." Yan Shanbai suddenly said, "You already knew."

Indeed, ever since Lin Weiyu had completed his internal skills, he discovered that, unlike the martial arts masters he had imagined before, Lin Weiyu was an out-and-out ordinary person.Although he has an extremely thorough understanding of the internal strength of swordsmanship, his advice to himself is limited to words.In the past five years, Lin Weiyu had never seen Yanshan Bai holding the sword.

He only knew that under Yan Shanbai's wide cuffs, there were stab wounds that went deep into the bones.The knife marks were like ugly centipedes, winding and entangled on Yan Shanbai's arm, and continuously spreading upwards.Just taking a look at it makes people feel chills all over.

This was a fatal knife wound, and Lin Weiyu didn't know how he survived this injury.

"..."

Yan Shanbai sighed softly, Lin Weiyu had been thinking deeply since he was young, and after a few years, he talked less and less, and the whole person was walking towards the iceberg.He took out the sword again, "This box is like the coffin of 'Xi Bo'. Do we want to put him in this coffin forever and turn him into a dead sword? Or take him out and let him drink blood , It all depends on your choice." Yan Shanbai held the sword in his hand and slashed at the bamboo beside him.The wrist-thick bamboo trunk only trembled slightly, leaving only a shallow mark after the blade left.

"Look, if he stays with me, he's just a useless sword." After Caicai and Lin Weiyu directly told the truth about his incompetence in martial arts, he simply didn't shy away from it anymore.During the conversation, Yan Shanbai just had a look of indifference.

After a while, the young man finally received the sword solemnly, and Yan Shanbai couldn't help laughing at the way he held the sword carefully in front of him.

"Okay, let's go," he said while holding an umbrella and walking out of the bamboo forest.

Lin Weiyu, who was left in place, touched his face...it turned out to be a little hot, and then remembered the way Yan Shanbai took the sword from behind him just now, and finally the young man's fair face was once again stained with thin red.Before he had time to think about it, he looked up and saw the figure walking further and further away, so he hurriedly put all his miscellaneous thoughts behind him, and followed closely.

Although this bamboo grove belongs to the Xipu Palace, it is separated from the palace by a wall.But since the death of the first emperor, no one has paid any attention to this palace, and many newcomers only think it is a long-abandoned wasteland.But today, there were waves of rhythmic footsteps of soldiers in heavy armor outside the wall.After hearing this sound, the two stopped at the same time.

"...Shan Wang has endured for so many years, it is not easy..."

"Holy..."

"Severely ill in my teens..."

A few sporadic words of the soldiers' conversation came in through the wall, and because they were far apart and they didn't speak loudly, the two of them could only vaguely hear a little bit.Lin Weiyu's hands could not help but slowly clenched into fists, his lips were tightly pursed, and his expression was restrained, not knowing what he was thinking.Yan Shanbai patted him on the shoulder lightly, and after saying "go", he took Lin Weiyu away again.

After walking far away, Yan Shanbai said: "I have heard that King Shan is not a kind person, and he can bear it. It took five years before he did it." He asked again: "Do you know that you were once the emperor's favorite?" Why did your prince, who was the first to be dealt with by King Shan after the death of the former emperor, survive to this day in peace?"

Lin Weiyu shook his head in puzzlement, five years ago he was still young, and he knew nothing about court affairs.

"Although the late emperor didn't pass on the emperor's hand to you before he died, he also knew that there were serious factional disputes in the court. Although the noble concubine faction was the most powerful, it could not be called the dominant one. Therefore, the late emperor took advantage of his last breath to leave a decree." The eldest prince is the bequeathed son. Although he has no virtue to inherit the throne, his benevolence can be an example for all the princes. He is hereby allowed to live in the palace and move out of the palace. I hope that all the princes will live in peace. The prime minister and Shan Wang will supervise him together.'” Yan Shanbai sighed, looked at the young man who was already much taller than himself, and said: "He is using the prime minister, King Shan, and all the court officials to protect you..."

Lin Weiyu lowered his head and remained silent. He had always had complicated feelings for the late emperor whose appearance was almost blurred in his mind.

After these years of history books and strategies, he certainly understood what was going to happen next.Naturally, his younger brother's throne has not been long. If Shan Wang wants to seize power directly, all the princes and himself, who has lived in the deep palace and has been forgotten for a long time, will be regarded as a thorn in his side.

However, although Shan Wang is powerful, he has not yet had the strength to subvert the court by himself.So the possibility of this is not too great, but if King Shan still cares about the opinions of the people and wants to ask for a legitimate name.Then the puppet sitting on the dragon chair, I am afraid that he is the best candidate.After all, a prince who has not studied since he was eight years old and has lived alone in the deep palace for nine years is really not a threat.

But no one knew that all of this had changed as early as five years ago.

Lin Weiyu raised his head and looked at the familiar sky that he could no longer be familiar with. He had never stepped out of Xipu Palace during nine years of house arrest.Today is a change, regardless of the outcome.At least he was finally able to see the sky outside with his own eyes, set foot on Dayu's land in person, and laugh out loud regardless of the ending.

He once heard from his mother that there is the most expansive grassland in the world in the north of Yudu, where black horses can run freely.It was a dark green that could never run to the end... The farthest grassland as far as the eye could see was connected to the blue sky, and there were no tall vermilion palace walls, and there were no trapped goosefinch...

Ever since he heard the conversation of the soldiers in the bamboo forest that day, Lin Weizhen knew that the day when he left was not far away.This afternoon, when the sky was getting dark.Outside the tall palace wall, which had been eroded by years of wind and rain because it had not been repaired for a long time, there was a sound of horseshoes.The inner courtyard of the imperial palace has been a place where horse riding has been banned since ancient times. It is not known who is here today...

"Sir?" Lin Weiyu looked at Yan Shanbai who appeared by his side at some point, "Be safe and don't be impatient" The man patted his shoulder lightly.

Even though it was early spring, the hand was still as cold as ice, even Lin Weiyu couldn't help shivering. "Sometimes someone may come to Xipu Palace to look for you, it's not convenient for me to show up. It's up to you to handle everything yourself, and I will come back to look for you after a while," Yan Shanbai said.

"Yes." Seeing that he answered, Yan Shanbai nodded and walked straight out of the house. After a while, he was hidden in the glow of the sky.

In the past few years, Lin Weiwei has known that although Yan Shanbai has no martial arts, he acts strangely.He often disappears, and there is no trace of him in the huge Xipu Palace, but he will suddenly appear when he encounters difficulties in martial arts or daily practice.The longer the two spend together, the more mysteries this person will have...

The horseshoes outside the palace gradually sounded, and the heavy armor was constantly rubbing and colliding due to the activity.As the noise from the heavy armor gradually became louder, it didn't take long before the vermilion gate that had been deserted for nine years was pushed open in front of the main hall of Xipu Palace.

Pushing the door open was an old eunuch wearing a tall hat. Although he was an eunuch, he had been pampered and pampered for most of his life after all.If it weren't for a big man following behind today, he would never have pushed the dirty looking door with his own hands.

"Ahem...cough cough..." The thick ash that had accumulated on the door for many years fell down one after another, and the eunuch coughed from choking.He picked up the floating dust hanging on his elbow and waved it into the air, "Come here, clean up the surroundings quickly."

This old eunuch used to serve the late emperor for a long time. When the Xipu Palace was still prosperous a few years ago, he did not know how many times he came here.But he never thought that when he stepped into this palace again, Xipu would be in such a dilapidated state.The flower garden was in dilapidation due to overgrown weeds due to neglect, and the ground paved with chiseled snow ridge black stone lost its luster and even had occasional cracks.

If he didn't say it, he would still think that he had entered the cold palace by mistake, but this place is indeed no different from the cold palace.

"No need." A man in a purple brocade robe came out from behind him.His clothes are not gorgeous, but if you look carefully, you will find that this robe is embroidered with five-clawed golden dragon shadow patterns, faintly revealing the identity of the robe owner.

The man stood in the courtyard of Xipu Palace and looked around, seeing dilapidated and deserted places, he couldn't help but frowned and walked inside.
