The Indifferent Prince's Substitute

Tianfeng Mountain is the royal paddock, every year the emperor will take the ministers to hunt. In previous years, concubine Li accompanied her. This year, concubine Li was pregnant and the queen accompanied her.

It takes half a day to travel from the capital to Tianfeng Mountain. As soon as it was daylight, Qiu Yun woke Lin Yan up. After washing up, before even having breakfast, Lin Yan was stuffed into a carriage and headed for the palace gate.

Several carriages had already parked outside the palace gate, waiting for the carriages of the emperor and empress to come out, the imperial guards escorted the team out of the city.

Lin Yan was lying in the carriage to catch up on sleep, when suddenly he heard a bang from outside, and then the sound of crackling and falling on the roof of the carriage.

"What's the matter?" He rubbed his eyes and got up, Qiuyun lifted the curtain of the car to take a look, frowned and said, "It's raining outside."

The rain was coming fiercely, and it was getting bigger and bigger after a while.The team happened to drive to a mountain road, and soon the carriages sank into the mud pit one after another.

There were a lot of family members accompanying them this time, and the mountain road could only accommodate two carriages to pass at the same time.The successive carriages that got stuck in the mud blocked the way of the carriages behind, delaying the progress of the entire team.Soon an order came from the front, so that he temporarily left the carriage behind and used the carriages in front to escort his family members to a temple not far away to avoid the rain.

Lin Yan's carriage was blocked by a carriage in front that was stuck in a mud puddle. Fortunately, there were several umbrellas on the carriage. Lin Yan took two and opened them to get out of the carriage with Qiuyun.

It was pouring rain outside, and mist rose from the ground.Lin Yan and Qiuyun walked forward holding umbrellas.

The people in the surrounding carriages all got off, holding umbrellas and walking forward.When Lin Yan and Qiu Yun came to the front, they found that the escorted carriages were already crowded with people.

The shoes and socks were wet all the way, and everyone wanted to get on the carriage quickly so that they could go to the temple to avoid the rain, so they were a little anxious.Lin Yan staggered from being squeezed, and fell to the side without holding her umbrella securely. Seeing that she was about to fall into a mud puddle, someone behind grabbed her waist.

He turned his head quickly and saw Rong Yuan standing behind him.Rong Yuan was holding an umbrella with one hand, his body was soaked with robes, which clinged to his broad shoulders, the black mask on his left face and his chin were covered with raindrops.

Rong Yuan helped him stand still, then took his umbrella and threw it to the guards at the side, frowned and looked at the carriage that was almost full of people, and took a step forward, everyone who was eager to get into the carriage just now was frightened by him. Dodge aside.

Rong Yuan took the opportunity to half help and half hug Lin Yan into the carriage.

"And sister Qiuyun." Lin Yan got on the carriage, thinking of Qiuyun, and hurriedly grabbed his arm.

Rong Yuan turned his head, Qiu Yun came back to his senses, taking advantage of the fact that no one dared to approach Rong Yuan, he trotted over holding an umbrella and got into the carriage.

Rong Yuan turned around to leave, paused, then turned back, took out an oiled paper bag from his bosom and stuffed it into Lin Yan's hand, before striding away holding an umbrella.

The carriage was full of people and started to stagger, Lin Yan looked up into the carriage, startled by surprise, Lin Yao was sitting diagonally opposite.

"Hmph." Lin Yao was also a little wet, she glared at Lin Yan, took the handkerchief handed to her by the servant girl, and wiped the water off her body.

"Master, wipe it too." Qiu Yun handed Lin Yan a handkerchief, looked at the oil-paper bag in his hand, and asked curiously, "What did the prince give you?"

"I don't know." Lin Yan touched it, the oiled paper bag was warm, he stretched out his hand to open it, and there were several big white and fat buns inside, and the fragrance wafted out.

Ever since he came to the capital, he has almost eaten all the delicious food in the capital. He knew it was from Tianxianglou when he saw the pleats on the buns. The juice will overflow, and every time you buy it, you have to wait in a long line.

"Master, eat quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold." Qiu Yun quickly reached out and pushed Lin Yan.I went out early and didn't have time to eat breakfast, so I just ate a few pieces of snacks to pad my stomach.Smelling the aroma of the steamed stuffed bun made her hungry.

Qiu Yun looked up, and the eyes of the people in the carriage all fell on the buns in the hands of her young master.It seems that everyone didn't eat breakfast.

Thinking of this, Qiu Yun deliberately smiled and said: "Young master, the prince is very kind to you, thinking that you didn't have breakfast, and even bought buns from Tianxianglou for you."

Lin Yan chuckled, lowered his head and took a bite carefully, the hot broth overflowed, and the aroma in the carriage became stronger.

"Gudu" someone swallowed softly.

"Sister Qiuyun, you can eat too." Lin Yan distributed the buns to Qiuyun, and the two masters and servants happily ate in the carriage as if no one was around.Others can only watch eagerly.

The girl next to Lin Yan couldn't take it anymore, she reached out and pulled Lin Yan's sleeve, and said, "Can you give me one? I haven't eaten breakfast yet."

Lin Yan glanced at her, thought for a while and said, "I don't know you."

"I know you." The girl hurriedly said, "You are the Princess of Beiling. My second brother admires the King of Beiling very much, and he wants to join his Northwest Army. Unfortunately, he is not in good health, so my elder brother won't let him."

"Your surname is Gu? Is your elder brother Gu Zhiming?" Lin Yan asked, remembering the person Tianxianglou saw next to Rong Yuan last time.

The girl nodded vigorously, "Well, Gu Zhiming is my elder brother."

"Then I'll give you one, no, two." Lin Yan generously gave her two. The benefactor's friend is his friend, and the friend's sister is also his own.

"Thank you." Gu Shuangshuang took it happily, and gave one to a friend around her.

"My lord is so considerate, I will go to Tianxianglou to buy food for you after only half a day's journey. I was worried about you just now, so I came here to take you to the carriage. Like my elder brother, he also came together, but he didn't care about me when it rained so heavily. " Gu Shuangshuang said to Lin Yan.

"Of course." Lin Yan said proudly, "Your Highness is fine."

Just as Gu Shuangshuang was about to say something, Lin Yao who was opposite her suddenly sneered, "I can eat that face."

The smile on Lin Yan's face sank, before he opened his mouth, Gu Shuangshuang opened his mouth: "Lin Yao, if you have the ability, just say it in front of the prince, do you dare?"

Lin Yao froze and glared at Gu Shuangshuang.

Others are afraid of the majesty of the prime minister's mansion, and they usually hold Lin Yao in their hands, but Gu Shuangshuang is not afraid. She snorted coldly and continued: "Where is your son of Marquis Qi Yuan, why didn't he come to see you when it rained so heavily? Is there you? I'm afraid I don't want to get wet, and I don't want to come out while sitting in the carriage. You are not as good as this heavy rain in his heart."

Lin Yao's face was ashen when she was run over by her, but she couldn't find a reason to refute, and her nails dug into the palm of her hand in anger.

Originally, I was supposed to be able to arrive at the Biezhuang on the top of Yuanfeng Mountain at noon, but because of the sudden heavy rain, I didn't arrive until nearly dusk.

Lin Yan ate the buns that Rong Yuan gave him, and the rain stopped later, the imperial guards sent all the family members' carriages to the temple, there were snacks brought by Qiu Yun on the carriages, it was not so hungry to pad their stomachs.

When they entered the Biezhuang, there were already palace people waiting to send them to their respective courtyards.They will live here during the hunting days.

When they arrived at the room where they lived, Qiu Yun told the palace servants to bring hot water, then took out a change of clothes and prepared to serve Lin Yan to take a bath.

All the way along the way, everyone was more or less drenched in the rain. If you don’t change your clothes and take a bath, you will easily get cold.After the hot water arrived, Lin Yan also asked Qiu Yun to go back to the room to take a bath.

Lin Yan took a hot bath, got dressed, the palace servants came in to tidy up the house, and brought dinner over.After Lin Yan finished eating, he saw that it was dark outside.

"Master, there is only one bed here, and the prince will come back to sleep tonight." Qiu Yun bent down to make the bed, frowning worriedly, "What should I do?"

"What to do, let's sleep together." Lin Yan caught a firefly in the yard and was lying on the table to play with it. Hearing this, he said.He doesn't want to sleep in the same bed with others, but the benefactor is not someone else, he is willing to share half of the bed with the benefactor.

Qiu Yun hesitated to speak but stopped to glance at Lin Yan who was lying on the table with puffed cheeks and blowing the wind towards the fireflies. Her young master probably thought that sleeping together meant two people simply lying on the same bed.

Forget it, the young master has become the princess of Beiling, even if the prince wants to do something, it's not her servant's business.What's more, it was the prince who took the initiative to separate the beds from the beginning, so the prince shouldn't do anything to her young master, right?

Qiuyun suppressed his worries.

Hearing that Rong Yuan was going to sleep with him, Lin Yan lay down under the quilt after washing, yawning and waiting for Rong Yuan while watching the fireflies flickering in the tent.I fell asleep without knowing it.

Rong Yuan was responsible for the safety of this hunt, and made arrangements for the hunt for tomorrow. When he came back, it was already dark and everyone had already fallen asleep, except for a candle light in the room.

"My lord, I'll get someone to bring hot water." The guard behind him whispered, turned and left.

Rong Yuan walked to the bed, there were spots of light flying in the tent, he opened the curtain, and saw Lin Yan lying sideways under the quilt, with his arms outside the quilt, his face was peaceful, and his thick eyelashes fell down on his eyelids A shadow, fast asleep.

Lin Yan didn't sleep well, and kicked away a corner of the quilt, exposing her feet and smooth calves.

Rong Yuan bent down and covered him with the quilt, not wanting to wake him up, turned around and went to the next room to wash up.

Only the room where Lin Yan sleeps has a bed, Rong Yuan came back from washing, opened the curtain, and found that Lin Yan had kicked the quilt away again.

Although it is already the beginning of summer, the top of the mountain is still a bit cool at night.Rong Yuan bent down and was about to cover him with the quilt again, he lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then changed to a safe method, and then lay down beside him.

Lin Yan woke up the next day and found that there was no one around him. He couldn't help but wonder, did the benefactor not come back, or did he go away after he came back?

"Master." Qiu Yun knocked on the door outside, Lin Yan wanted to get up, but suddenly found that she was tightly wrapped in the quilt like a cicada pupa, unable to move her hands and feet.

Hey, why did he sleep like this?He remembered that he didn't sleep like this last night.Lin Yan was puzzled, struggled to get out of the quilt, put on her shoes and went to open the door.

"Is the prince here?" Qiu Yun was worried that Rong Yuan was there, so he didn't dare to go in hastily, and looked into the room with his head.

"No, I don't even know if he came back last night." Lin Yan let her in, and then looked for clothes to wear.

"Should be back. I must be busy hunting. I left early." Qiu Yun went out to ask for hot water.After a while, he came back with hot water and said to Lin Yan, "Master, do you know who lives in the yard next to us?"

"Who is it?" Lin Yan asked casually after wiping his face with a cloth towel.

"Empress." Qiu Yun said, "I heard that she even brought the little prince here."
