I Became the Older Brother of the Heroine in an Abusive Novel

...Why did he help himself look injured?

Jun Huailang couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, and then hastily withdrew his arm, showing a bit of embarrassment in his cold expression.

What happened?

Just now, if Xue Yan hadn't pulled him, he would have fallen into that deep well.

Because of his own impulsiveness, he accidentally let his enemy in the previous life save his life.Before the enmity in the previous life happened, he owed him love in this life.

Jun Huailang has never been so cramped.He withdrew his arm, said thank you coldly with hanging eyes, then glanced sideways at Fuyi, turned around and left.

Fuyi understood, and hurriedly followed him with the food box.

After a while, the two disappeared in the dazzling maple forest.

Xue Yan looked at his back.

Although the little peacock walked calmly, with straight shoulders and looked quite proud, it still made him feel a little cramped, which was a bit interesting and cute.

The corners of Xue Yan's lips raised slightly, and he looked away lightly.

He glanced sideways at the little eunuch by the well, and turned around to fill up the bucket of water again.The little eunuch seemed to be intimidated by Jun Huailang, hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward, helped Xue Yan to fetch water, and brought it to the palace.

But the little eunuch didn't dare to touch Xue Yan the whole time, as if he saw some terrible monster, he hurriedly put down the bucket and hid out.

It was said that this man was born from a malevolent star, his whole body was full of bad luck, and anyone who touched him would be unlucky.That evil spirit might not kill the nobles, but it's not certain for a slave like myself.

It's better to stay away.

Xue Yan has long been used to it.He strolled into the hall and closed the door by himself.

The main hall is quite spacious, with eight rooms across it, with two entrances, front and back, but it is empty, only some furniture left by the previous owner, which is already outdated.Silk, window screens and other things, although they are still clean, are all damaged and faded, and even the edges are rotten.

Through the windows with broken window paper, you can see that the courtyard is deserted, and even the gaps between the floor tiles are full of weeds.

Xue Yan walked directly to the bronze mirror, took off his robe, and tore off the cloth stuck to his body by blood.He turned around, turned his head sideways and looked indifferently through the mirror at his bloody and terrifying back, then started to clean it up slowly with the clear water in the bucket.

Back wounds are difficult to touch and especially difficult to clean.When he raised his arms, he also stretched the muscles in his back.

When Jinbao opened the door and came in, he saw such a scene.

The slender and tall young man stood in front of the mirror, his upper body was bare, and when he turned his head to reveal a sharp side face, he frowned slightly and looked at the bronze mirror indifferently.The wound on his back is quite frightening, the muscles of his upper body are strong and tight, the muscles of his waist and abdomen are well-defined, and the lines are tightened, like a beast lazily licking its wounds alone.

Seeing the sound of pushing the door, Xue Yan didn't raise his eyes, and while cleaning up a bruise on his shoulder, he said in a low voice: "Found it?"

No one would enter his main hall except Jin Bao, who was the most bullied among the slaves.He knew who it was without looking up.

Jin Bao closed the door, slapped a thousand in front of him tremblingly, and said, "Master, you really guessed right, it was indeed the letter reported by Xiao Weizi, who is in charge of purchasing."

After Xue Yan cleaned the wound, he picked up the powder on the table and applied it to his back.The medicinal powder was brought from the frontier, although it has miraculous effects, but the medicinal properties are extremely strong, and it will cause piercing pain when applied to the wound.

As soon as the powder was applied to the wound, Xue Yan gritted his teeth and let out a gasp.

Then he asked, "Where did he send the message?"

Jin Bao wiped his sweat carefully, and said: "The servant saw that he had taken the items needed in the palace, and then headed east. It took two hours to go back and forth, and it must be a very far place... No matter how much, The servant did not dare to follow."

"The east side of the House of Internal Affairs..." Xue Yan turned his head and said slowly while applying medicine through the bronze mirror. "Two hours, it's just right to come and go to Donghua Gate once."

When Jin Bao heard the name, his shoulders trembled with fright.

Donghuamen!Isn't that where the East Police Factory is located! ...Could it be that he, he actually followed Dongchang's fan just now!

It is said that Dongchang is ruthless, murderous, and has a thousand tricks to make life worse than death... If the person who followed them was found, wouldn't they be tortured to death by them!

Xue Yan was still taking the medicine with his eyes downcast, thinking in a low voice: "A person from Dongchang? They have never been in charge of the affairs of the palace, why are they staring at me?"

He knows something about the current situation of the East Factory.Although Dongchang was established during Taizu's time, it has always been the emperor's eyes and ears, used to monitor all officials.But the current Emperor Qingping doesn't trust him. On the contrary, he looks favorably on the eunuch Bingbi who serves beside him. Much of the energy that originally belonged to Dongchang has been transferred to Lingfu by him.

Could it be that these two forces of eunuchs were fighting each other, and Dongchang couldn't stand it anymore, so he wanted to find a prince to be their backer in the palace...or a pawn?

After all, Dongchang was already notorious, and now it has no Sacred Heart. If it weren't for the Taizu's will, it would have become a street mouse.Ordinary princes, no one is willing to contaminate them. Only myself, a prince who has royal blood but exists in name only, can be used by them.

If he can be supported, then this chess piece can naturally be used as a backer.At that time, their Dongchang will no longer be sandwiched between Bingbi eunuchs and courtiers, but will be able to become the emperor's close ministers in one fell swoop.

If he guessed correctly, the people over there are planning to take a risky move.But now, they are spying on him secretly, evaluating his value and reliability as the prince.

After all, a dog in the water who is bullied everywhere will rely on them, trust them, and at the same time not turn against them.

Xue Yan hooked his lips.

People in the palace seldom make it clear who they hate.Only by trying to stimulate them can they vent out the malice in their hearts for others to see.

He made use of the trash of the second prince to make this bitter trick, which can be regarded as attracting a big fish.It's just that the big fish is very vigilant, wandering around but not biting the bait, and he needs to add more chips to make the other party feel that he is really cornered, so he will take advantage of him.

At that time, it is still unknown who will use whom.

"Has something major happened in the East Factory recently?" Xue Yan asked.

Jinbao didn't move for a long time.Xue Yan frowned and raised his eyes. Looking through the mirror, he saw Jin Bao, who was kneeling on the ground, with a hopeless expression that his life was at risk.

Xue Yan was speechless for a moment.

He could tell at a glance what the little eunuch was afraid of.

Xue Yan turned his gaze away and continued to concentrate on treating his wound. "The palace is the site of hearing blessings, and Dongchang can't let anyone in. The messenger is just a small character who was bribed by them. He can't find you, and he can't kill you."

It was only then that Jinbao came back from desperation, and life appeared on his face again.

"But you still need to keep staring at him." Xue Yan pursed his lips and said indifferently. "Even a small person is much smarter than you. If you don't pay attention, the people in Dongchang will naturally get rid of you without a trace."

"Master, save me!" Jin Bao cried out in fright.

Without turning his head, Xue Yan put the used medicine bottle on the table with a crisp sound.

"Do as I say, and of course you won't die."

-

The snacks that the queen asked Jun Huailang to bring back were very suitable for Concubine Shu's taste, which made Concubine Shu happy for a few days.

But within a few days, the atmosphere in Mingluan Palace still dropped to freezing point.

Since that day Concubine Shu received an imperial decree, she cried a lot in the palace, no one tried to persuade her.Afterwards, the emperor came to see her once, but she kicked her out without letting him see her face to face.

Emperor Qingping had a good temper.Jun Huailang saw through the window that Concubine Shu was crying in the main hall, and Emperor Qingping was standing in the yard with a helpless face, coaxing her nicely through the window.

If it were in the past, Jun Huailang would definitely feel that Emperor Qingping's deep love for Concubine Shu was too deep, which was moving.

But Jun Huailang knew that Emperor Qingping was simply using Concubine Shu to suppress some evil star.He used the other party secretly, but he still had to find high-sounding reasons on the surface, and put on a look of affection, which was really chilling.

Jun Huailang has never realized so clearly before, what is the most ruthless emperor's family.

No matter how deep his relationship with Concubine Shu is, it can't compare to a letter of approval from Qin Tianjian.

On the contrary, Jun Linghuan has been a little scared by the low air pressure in the palace these few days.Jun Huailang has to go to the Wenhua Palace to study every day, only Jun Linghuan and Concubine Shu are in the palace, although Concubine Shu will not lose her temper at her, but Jun Linghuan is sensitive, and still feels that her aunt is not doing well these days. Happy.

"Who made my aunt unhappy?" One day when Jun Huailang came back from the Wenhua Palace, when Jun Linghuan threw himself into his arms, he asked him in a low voice.

Jun Huailang thought to himself, he is a brat who is about the same age as your brother, and the kind who will plot to bully you in the future.

He put his arms around Jun Ling and laughed happily, and said, "No one. It's the adults' business. Auntie will be fine in a few days."

Only then did Jun Linghuan feel relieved and nodded.

"The elder brother rests tomorrow, so come and teach Ling Huan to play the piano, okay? There is a big table in the pavilion in the courtyard, which is just right for my brother's piano." Jun Linghuan said again. "Today I played the piano for my aunt, and she laughed at me for not being good at it."

Jun Huailang couldn't help laughing, and said with a smile: "Okay, then Ling Huan can't sleep in tomorrow."

Jun Linghuan nodded quickly.

Jun Huailang has been intelligent since he was a child, whether it is poetry, poetry, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, he is proficient in everything.It was also because of this that his reputation for being brilliant had spread in Chang'an a few years earlier, and it was no problem to teach Jun Linghuan how to play the piano.

In the early morning of the second day, Jun Huailang got up early, and asked Fuyi to lead the people to set up the qin to the pavilion in the courtyard.

As soon as Fuyi pushed open the door, he exclaimed, turned around full of surprise, and said to Jun Huailang: "Master, it's snowing!"

"It's snowing?" Jun Huailang was a little surprised, and followed him to the door.I saw that there was a lot of light outside, and it was snowing.Now it's just winter, and the leaves in the yard haven't finished falling yet. At this time, a layer of snow has accumulated, and a piece of white is covering the green tiles and flying scorpions.

The air is full of clear smell after snow.Jun Huailang took a deep breath, raised his head, and looked at the lofty sky.

It's been a long time, and he has forgotten that this year's winter came especially early.
