The Indifferent Prince's Substitute

However, after a few days away from the palace, Lin Yan came back to take a look, and found that the little squirrel had gained a lot of weight.

"How much have you eaten in the past few days?" Lin Yan stretched out his fingers and poked the little squirrel's round belly, asking in disbelief.

"Hey." The little squirrel laughed, jumped onto Lin Yan's shoulder, flapped its wings and asked, "Is hunting fun?"

Lin Yan got up to close the door and window, told it about meeting the big monster in Biezhuang, and showed it the little black seed he hid.

The little squirrel plucked the little black seeds with its wings, and tilted its head in doubt, "What is this? Have you ever set seeds when you bloomed before?"

Lin Yan shook her head, "No. What do you think that big monster did to my fruit?"

The little oriole didn't understand either. They lived in Longyuan Mountain since they were young, and they really don't know much about the monsters outside.One person and one bird pondered for a while, and decided to ask the well-informed weasel spirit.

Lin Yan went to tell Uncle Zhang that he was going to the street, took the little oriole, took Qiuyun with him, and went out in a carriage.

Arriving at Huang’s Noodle Restaurant in Yong’an Alley, compared to the deserted appearance last time, the noodle restaurant is much more lively and tidy. There are several customers sitting in the lobby, and the weasel spirit is holding noodle bowls, busy in and out of the kitchen and lobby .

"Ouch, two guests, sit down quickly." Seeing Lin Yan, the weasel wiped the sweat from his brow and asked them to sit down.

"Huang Da, here is a bowl of sweet water noodles." A familiar guest called.

"Hey, here we come." Huang Da handed Lin Yan a booklet, let him read it slowly, and turned to the kitchen to cook noodles.

Lin Yan opened the booklet, which contained the names of various noodles. Next to the names, there were pictures of noodles and prices drawn with a brush, which was intuitive and conspicuous, making it clear at a glance.

After noon, the customers in the store left one after another. When the last customer left, the weasel played the same trick to make Qiu Yun fall asleep on the table, closed the upper door of the restaurant, and led Lin Yan and the little oriole to the back room.

Weasel Jing's younger sister is called Huang Xiaozhen, a name she gave herself after thinking about it for half a month.The monsters are generally very lazy, and their names are very perfunctory, like her elder brother, who is the boss of the family, they are named Huang Da, and like the two brothers of the rabbit spirit, they are called Tu Yi Tu Er, and the spider spirit is called A Zhu, Not afraid to meet another spider with the same name.

Lin Yan's vine juice was very effective in treating the wound on Huang Xiaozhen's leg, but after applying it twice, the wound began to bleed red and slowly began to form a scar.Huang Xiaozhen sat by the window knitting a sweater for her brother, saw Huang Daling Lin Yan enter the room, put down the wool in his hand, and shouted happily: "Brother Xiaoshuteng!"

Lin Yan also greeted her with a smile, and sat down beside her.

"Why did you come to see me?" Huang Da asked while bringing tea.

Lin Yan said directly: "There is a big monster in the capital, who lives in the queen's bedroom. He has set up a barrier for the queen's bedroom, and ordinary monsters can't get in. Do you know any way to sneak in?"

Huang Da was taken aback when he heard that, "That's a thousand-year-old monster, we didn't even have time to dodge it, why did you still go up to it?"

"He stole my fruit." Lin Yan said truthfully, briefly explaining about his fruit.

"I see," Huang Da scratched his head, "Then let me help you figure out a way."

"Thank you." Seeing that he promised to help, Lin Yan quickly thanked him, and suddenly remembered, he took out the little black seed from his purse and handed it to him, "Do you know what it is?"

Huang Da took a look at it, shook his head, "I don't know, what kind of plant's seed is it? You can take it to the monster market and ask, there are monsters from all over there, maybe some monsters will know."

The monster market is held once a month, and it was held just once before, and it will have to wait until next month.Lin Yan took back the little black seed and put it in her purse, planning to ask about it when the monster fair opened next month.

Huang Da promised to tell him if he could think of a way. After sitting for a while, Lin Yan left and went out to the noodle shop. Seeing that it was still early, he asked the coachman to drive the carriage to the suburbs, wanting to visit Shen's.

When they arrived at Zhuangzi in the suburbs, they found that Mrs. Shen was no longer there. After asking the servants, they found out that Mrs. Shen had gone back to the prime minister's mansion yesterday.

Lin Yan had no choice but to tell the coachman to turn around and go to the prime minister's mansion.

The servants at the gate of Xiangfu saw him and did not dare to stop him. Lin Yan went straight to Yuancui Garden without waiting for anyone to go in and report.

Walking into the courtyard and passing through the veranda, she saw Mrs. Shen taking a walk in the garden.Biyue beside her saw Lin Yan and said something to her, and Shen raised her head to look at Lin Yan.

Shen Shi put on light makeup, and her spirit and complexion are much better than before.Lin Yan quickly walked over to hold his mother's arm, and said happily, "Mother, how are you?"

"En." Shen reached out to touch his hair, and smiled gently, "Mother hasn't had time to let someone go to the palace to say something, how do you know that mother has returned to Xiangfu?"

"I went to Zhuangzi to look for you, Zhuangzi's servants said." Lin Yan was puzzled, "Mother, why don't you live in Zhuangzi, what are you doing when you come back to Xiangfu?"

This Prime Minister's Mansion is not a good place, it might as well live in a quiet place in Zhuangzi.

Shen smiled faintly, not wanting to get him involved in the affairs of the Xiangfu, she dragged him into the house, and changed the subject, "It's sunny outside, let's talk about it when we go inside."

After sitting down in the house, Biyue served tea, and Shen said, "Is it interesting to go hunting this time? Tell mother if anything interesting happened."

There are quite a lot of things that happened, but I can't tell his mother.Lin Yan thought about it, and told his mother about the rash on Lin Yao's face.

After hearing this, Shen bent her lips and smiled, "I also heard that as soon as Lin Yao came back yesterday, she invited the doctor into the mansion. This morning, even the imperial doctor in the palace came in and out several times."

"Don't eat indiscriminately." The imperial doctor couldn't find out the cause, so he could only guess that Lin Yao didn't pay attention to what he ate.Shen touched Lin Yan's face and exhorted.

Lin Yan obediently responded.

In the Ripple Courtyard, Lin Xuan was throwing and rolling on the ground in Lin Yao's house.

"I don't want to stay at Laoshizi's Nanyang Academy anymore, sister, you and mother go to plead with father, don't send me away again!"

Because of Lin Yan's return, Lin Xuan was sent to Nanyang Academy for discipline for three months. Now, less than a month later, Lin Xuan couldn't stand the discipline of the academy and sneaked back.

"You have to stay in Nanyang Academy for three months. Dad promised in front of the emperor. It's only been less than a month. How can I get you back?" Lin Yao, wearing a veil, sat on a chair fidgeting.Before the rash on her face disappeared, she discovered that this worried brother had sneaked back from Nanyang Academy.

"Why hasn't my mother come back yet?" Lin Yao looked out the door irritably. Her uncle came, and Mrs. Zhou was entertaining her in the front yard. She just sent the maid to call Mrs. Zhou in the front yard.

After all, they are brothers and sisters. Looking at Lin Xuan's thin face and the scars on his arms from being hit by a ruler, Lin Yao felt distressed, so she slowed down her voice and coaxed: "Go back to the academy first, don't let anyone find out. You sneaked back. My mother and I will go and tell your father that we will go to Yuezhou to bring you back in a few days."

"No, I won't go back." Lin Xuan didn't want to go back to the academy, crying with a lot of tears and nose, "The academy is really not a place for people to stay. If I go there for a few days, I won't be able to come back."

"You have to go, just sneak back like this, how can father explain to the emperor?" Lin Yao frowned, and a servant came in from the door to report that Lin Yan was coming.

"It's all because of Lin Yan!" Lin Xuan suddenly jumped up from the ground, grabbed the whip that Lin Yao threw on the desk, and rushed outside.

"Xuan'er!" Lin Yao yelled in surprise, and hurriedly stomped her feet to order, "Hurry up and chase the young master back!"

Although Scrophularia ginseng has miraculous effects, Shen's body was too weak before, and it only took a few days to use it. Shen's talking and walking took a little longer, but she still felt tired and lack of energy.Lin Yan only stayed for a while, then got up and left, letting her mother go back to her room to rest.

Coming out of Longcui Garden, just as he walked to a gazebo in the garden, he saw Lin Xuan walking towards him aggressively, carrying a whip.

Hey, isn't this little fat man sent to Nanyang Academy in Yuezhou?It hasn't been three months yet, why come back.Lin Yan was wondering, Lin Xuan swung his whip and whipped towards him.

Lin Yan hurriedly dodged, Lin Xuan pursued him with a whip, and cursed angrily: "Let you harm my young master!"

"Hey, I'm the concubine, you dare to beat me with a whip, believe it or not, kill your nine clans?!" Lin Yan threatened while hiding.I haven't seen him for more than half a month. Not only has this little fat man lost weight, but he has also become more flexible. Lin Yan wanted to take his whip, but he couldn't find a chance.

Lin Xuan's movements faltered, and the servants chasing after him rushed up and surrounded him, some hugged him, some snatched his whip, and some begged: "Master, go back quickly, if you come back again If you get into trouble and get in front of the emperor, the master will not be able to save you."

Mrs. Zhou hadn't come back yet, Lin Yao was worried that Lin Xuan would cause trouble again, so she had to hurry over with her skirt in hand.Seeing that Lin Xuan was restrained by his subordinates, he said angrily, "Send the young master back!"

"Sister, you don't even help me!" Lin Xuan said angrily.

"Help you? You're only going to cause trouble!" Lin Yao was getting annoyed to death, her face was itchy and she couldn't scratch it, but this younger brother didn't worry about it.

"You're the only one who causes trouble!" Lin Xuanben was tortured to the point of madness by his days at Nanyang Academy. He wanted to vent his grievances to Lin Yan, the chief culprit, but he couldn't because of his status as a concubine. On his sister, he roared angrily, "You were the one the King of Beiling wanted to marry. If you hadn't been willing to die, how could he have become a princess?! If he wasn't a princess, the emperor wouldn't care if I beat him. You don't have to be sent to Nanyang Academy to suffer!"

Because of the rash on her face, Lin Yao has not slept well for two nights.The torment of the rash, coupled with the fact that she didn't sleep well, and was quarreled unreasonably by Lin Xuan, Lin Yao was dizzy with anger, and said angrily: "You have been so selfish since you were a child, and you only care about yourself! If you don't study hard, you can't do anything except study hard. God made trouble, what else would you do?! If the bad things you did were not known by the emperor, how could you be sent to Nanyang Academy? You deserve it, and you are to blame yourself! You should have been sent to Nanyang Academy a long time ago, or else wait When you grow up, you don't know how many disasters you will cause, and maybe even your father's official position will be affected!"

"You deserve it!" Lin Xuanqi's chest heaved violently, he broke free from his subordinates, and rushed towards Lin Yao.

Lin Yao quickly stepped back.

The two siblings started fighting right in front of him.Lin Yan was stunned watching from the side.

All the servants also panicked, and hurried forward to stop Lin Xuan. With a sound of "stab", the scarf on Lin Yao's face was ripped off by Lin Xuan.

Lin Yao's rash-covered face was immediately revealed.

After being dazed for a moment, Lin Yao screamed, and hurriedly picked up the scarf and covered her face again.

"Lin Xuan!" Lin Yao lost her mind angrily, and roared at Lin Xuan, her eyes froze suddenly, and her voice was cut off abruptly.Lin Yan followed her dull gaze. On the small bridge opposite the pavilion, a young and handsome young man was surrounded by several servants, looking at this side.

Lin Yao didn't say another word, she didn't care about Lin Xuan anymore, she turned around and ran away in embarrassment, holding up her skirt.

"Qi... Qi Yuanhou Shizi." Among the servants, someone couldn't help but exclaimed.

oh.After hearing this, Lin Yan suddenly realized that this person was Qi Yuanhou Shizi, and Lin Yao seemed to like him.According to the scene just now, the eldest son probably saw Lin Yao's face covered with rashes.

Lin Yan couldn't help but gloated and rolled his eyes.

Coming out of the garden, Lin Yan and Qiu Yun waited for the carriage at the gate of Xiangfu.The little squirrel jumped up and down on Lin Yan's shoulder, then suddenly lowered its head and pecked his shoulder.

"Princess." A man's voice came from behind, Lin Yan turned his head, and saw the son of Marquis Qi Yuan standing behind him, bowing his hands to him.

Lin Yan nodded to him, and also said hello, "My lord."

Du Mingxiu looked at the young man in front of him for a moment, and asked, "Wangfei came to see Mrs. Lin?"

"En." Lin Yan nodded.

Du Mingxiu had a smile on his lips, "I heard that Mrs. Lin's illness has not recovered for a long time. I know a genius doctor. Why don't I introduce it to the princess."

"No need." Without waiting for Lin Yan to speak, Qiu Yun said first, "Thank you for your kindness, but my prince has already found the medicinal materials, so I don't need to bother you."

Du Mingxiu gave Qiuyun a displeased look, and still asked Lin Yan, "What does the princess think?"

"Don't bother me." Lin Yan had no choice but to repeat Qiu Yun's words, and couldn't help muttering in his heart, he didn't know this person well, why didn't this person leave, why did he keep talking to him.

"Master, the carriage is here." Their carriage came, and Qiu Yun quickly pushed Lin Yan.

The carriage didn't stop too firmly. Lin Yan shook his body when he got into the carriage. Before Qiuyun could react, Du Mingxiu had already stepped forward to support his arm, "Princess, be careful."

Lin Yan stood firm and broke away from his hand, twitched the corner of his mouth and said perfunctorily: "Thank you." Then he bent down and got into the carriage.

Qiu Yun also quickly followed into the carriage.

The carriage went away quickly. Du Mingxiu stood at the door, twirling his fingers lightly, looking at the direction the carriage was leaving, his face darkened and thoughtful.

Inside the carriage, Qiu Yun hesitated to speak, "Master..."

"What's the matter?" Lin Yan caressed the little squirrel's feathers and looked up at her.

"You Qiyuanhou Shizi..." Qiu Yun hesitated, Lin Yan looked at her suspiciously for a moment, and then suddenly realized that the original owner of this body seemed to like that Qiyuanhou Shizi in the past.

"I don't care about him anymore." Lin Yan interrupted her, "I don't like him a long time ago."

Qiu Yun was pleasantly surprised, "Really?"

"Of course." Lin Yan reached out and scratched her hair without thinking.

Qiu Yun breathed a sigh of relief, "It's fine if the young master doesn't like him. I'm really worried that although the young master has become a concubine, he still likes the son of Marquis Qi Yuan in his heart."

"I don't like it anymore, I don't like it anymore." Lin Yan scratched her hair again, denying it again and again, curling her lips in her heart, that son looks so-so, and he is not as good-looking as his benefactor.

On the way back to the palace, Qiu Yun saw Lin Yan scratching his hair with his hands from time to time, and went into the room to sit down. Qiu Yun couldn't help but ask, "Master, do you have an itchy head? Let me fetch water to wash your hair?"

"Oh, okay, let's go." Lin Yan nodded in response, and when Qiu Yun went out, she couldn't help scratching her head again.

"Didn't you just wash your hair last night? How could it be itchy after only one night?" The little squirrel flew to the top of his head and asked doubtfully.

"I don't know, it's just very itchy." Lin Yan waved the little squirrel away from the top of his head, and continued to scratch his hair.

The little squirrel flew to the chair, tilted its head and thought about it, and suddenly asked: "Little tree vine, is it almost your flowering day?"

Lin Yan was taken aback, counted the days, and suddenly realized, "It's really coming soon."

When he was in Longyuan Mountain, May and June every year were the days when he bloomed.

"But...but I'm a human now." Lin Yan looked confused, isn't flowering unique to plants? Now that he has become a human, should he still have flowers?

"People don't seem to be able to bloom." The little squirrel flapped its wings and jumped from the chair to the table. "But your head itches so abnormally, I think it has something to do with you about to bloom."

How does he bloom? Does he want to bloom one from his head?Thinking about that scene, Lin Yan couldn't help but collapse a bit.

Lin Yan was worried about what to do if her head really blossomed, so she didn't sleep well at night.Fortunately, when I woke up the next day, the top of my head was no longer itchy. Lin Yan heaved a sigh of relief and thought fortunately that it was probably just an itchy head before, and it had nothing to do with the flowering.

After breakfast, Mammy Zhao brought needles and thread, and she and Qiuyun did needlework on the couch by the window, while Lin Yan propped her chin on the side to flip through the picture book.

Mammy Zhao and Qiuyun talked about what happened in the capital recently while they were doing it.

Zhao Nanny said: "I went to the kitchen in the morning, and I heard from Young Brother Yang, who was shopping for vegetables, that they have been talking about the little prince in the palace for the past two days."

Qiu Yun was puzzled and asked, "What's wrong with the little prince?"

Zhao Momo glanced outside the door, lowered her voice, "It is rumored outside that the little prince is not a human, but a monster."

Lin Yan flicked through the picture book for a moment, looked at Zhao Nanny, and asked, "Is the little prince a monster?"

Zhao Nanny nodded, "That's the way it is said. It is said that some palace people talk to the air when they see the little prince moving. There are often objects flying around in the bedroom where the little prince lives. Some people accidentally saw the little prince showing his tail. In short, it has a nose and an eye.”

Lin Yan was a little confused when he heard that there was a monster in the Queen's Palace, but that monster couldn't be a three-year-old child.So where did the rumor that the little prince is a monster come from?

Qiu Yun interjected: "The little prince was stupid for three years before, and it's a bit weird that he suddenly recovered. But it's not enough to say that the little prince is a monster."

Zhao Nanny sighed, "That's right, Concubine Li is about to give birth, and this child is said to be a prince. At this time, there are rumors that are unfavorable to the little prince, which is in the best interest of Concubine Li. Maybe it was Concubine Li who asked people to release her. The little prince She's only three years old, and she doesn't know how the Queen will deal with this rumor."

Lin Yan was speechless when he heard that, there was really a conspiracy in the palace.But this queen's palace is really complicated, there are big monsters and little princes, he has to enter the queen's bedroom as soon as possible.

I hope the weasel spirit can help him find a way to get in soon.

Two days later, the weasel spirit asked the little squirrel to bring back a letter, saying that he had found a way to enter the queen's bedroom without disturbing the big monster, and asked him to go to the noodle shop.Lin Yan hurriedly got into the carriage and went.

At the same time, an unremarkable carriage drove into the gate of the capital. Du Mingxiu had been waiting at the gate for a long time, and he clapped his hands forward on his horse and said, "Master Hongyi."

The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a middle-aged man in Taoist robe nodded to him. A smell of incense ash wafted from the carriage, and Du Mingxiu rode to the front to lead the way.Before driving to the palace, the middle-aged man opened the curtain again and stared at the palace ahead.

It was noon at this time, and the sun was full of sunshine, shining on the majestic and towering walls of the palace.The middle-aged man stretched out his finger and dipped some incense ash in the censer in the carriage, wiped it lightly on his eyes, and then raised his eyes, the sky and the palace in front of him have changed, the sky is dark and dark clouds are overwhelming, and two evil spirits are flowing between the palace. hovered above the sky.

A wave of evil spirit was particularly thick and strong, enveloping another weak wave of evil spirit.Although the other evil spirit is weak, it is very special, not only full of gloomy vitality, but also faintly contains a trace of pure dragon spirit.

The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows in surprise.Such pure dragon energy has not appeared in the human world for hundreds of years since the death of Emperor Qingyuan.
