The daily life of the eldest son

After Tang Xiao rushed to the northwest, Ye Yi began to spend the night in the palace again, either driving with Nanrong Qingxia, or reading books in the Hongwen Museum.Nanrong Qingxia also tried to force Ye Yi to go back to the Tang Mansion to rest, but he stayed alone in the place full of memories of the three of them. In order to keep himself from thinking wildly, Ye Yi could only pour wine into his stomach one jar after another. , I have to drink him every night to get drunk, it's better to stay in the palace.

Two months passed in a blink of an eye, and Tang Xiao only sent back three battle reports from the Western Regions, each of which was a newsletter, but Ye Yi still couldn't feel at ease after reading it.

Before Tang Yun's accident, he always sent newsletters. Every time he said that the overall situation was under control, but in the end his life and death were suddenly unknown. Ye Yi no longer believed in these battle reports. meaningless.

At night, Ye Yi stayed in the Hongwen Hall as usual, and Xuanfeng obediently lay aside, not pestering Ye Yi to play around, nor going for a walk alone, during this period of time, Xuanfeng seemed to want to make up for Tang Xiao's vacancy with Tang Xiao. Being by Ye Yi's side every step of the way, although he couldn't replace Tang Xiao in the end, to Ye Yi, this comfort was better than nothing.

The candle was flickering, Ye Yi heard the sound of someone opening the door, raised his head to follow the sound, and saw Nanrong Qingxia slowly entering the door.

"You are here again." Turning around and closing the door, the eunuchs and guards who came with him were also locked outside the Hongwen Hall. Nanrong Qingxia walked slowly in front of Ye Yi and sat down opposite the low table, "What are you looking at?" ?”

Ye Yi smiled and pushed the books on the table, intending to take advantage of Nanrong Qingxia's arrival to take a nap: "It's just some local chronicles of the Western Regions."

Nanrong Qingxia looked at Ye Yi's face carefully, and teased deliberately: "If Tang Xiao sees your sickly appearance when he comes back, he will definitely fight me desperately."

Ye Yi chuckled and said: "Then I will let him fight himself first."

"If you're so worried, why do you still support him to go to the Western Regions? If you didn't agree with his opinion, I definitely wouldn't let him go. I know that both of their brothers are very important to you, and I know Tang Xiao even more It's unusual for you."

Ye Yi looked at Nanrong Qingxia and sighed: "The person whose life and death are unknown is his twin brother and my younger brother. He is a relative who went to the Western Regions to be our backing."

When he heard the news of Tang Yun's death in battle, he didn't even think about stopping Tang Xiao, because Tang Yun was too important to both of them.What he hesitated at the time was whether he should follow.If he followed, he would be able to confirm Tang Yun's life and death immediately, and be able to watch over Tang Xiao's safety, but that was all.

By staying with Tang Xiao, he can protect Tang Xiao from harm, but at the same time, Tang Xiao will be distracted to protect him. It is better to let Tang Xiao go alone, and let Tang Xiao go all out to save Tang Yun. He stayed here, looking for ways to subdue all the tribes of the Western Regions.Using military force to suppress the symptoms does not cure the root cause, he must find a way that can be done once and for all.

"I can't understand," Nanrong Qingxia sighed, "There is no such person around me."

"There will be." Ye Yi looked at Nanrong Qingxia and smiled, "The future is long, and His Majesty will definitely meet such a person one day, no matter who you are, no matter what you have done, no matter what you want to do, That person will stand by your side, support you, protect you, love you, he will tolerate everything about you, and dedicate everything to you. Maybe it is one person, maybe several people, maybe a lover, maybe They are friends, and this does not hinder their hearts towards you. It is just that I am luckier than Your Majesty, and met such a person early on."

Seeing the indifferent smile on Ye Yi's face, Nanrong Qingxia frowned and said: "But looking at your current appearance, I would rather not meet such a person. You have to be so worried, so what will I do? My There are dangers all around.”

Ye Yi shook his head and said: "Some fate, once met, is hard to refuse, Your Majesty, wait until that time, you will know what I think at the moment."

Nanrong Qingxia was noncommittal, and he also knew that some things had to be done at that moment before he could know what he would do and what would happen in the future.

"Have you found a solution from these local chronicles?" Nanrong Qingxia knew that Ye Yi at this time would never waste time reading idle books, even if he was not by his side, Ye Yi would not let Tang Xiao fight alone.

Ye Yi turned the pages of the book with a smile and said, "I think of a way, but it just takes time."

"How long?" It's better to have a way than to have no way.

Ye Yi thought for a while, and said: "It's hard to say, the shortest is half a year, and the longest...however, it will take two or three years."

"So long?" Nanrong Qingxia didn't intend to let this battle last so long.

Ye Yi knew Nanrong Qingxia's meaning as soon as he heard Nanrong Qingxia's tone, and explained: "I don't want this battle to be delayed for two or three years. If you want to end the war, there is nothing you can do. It can only be done by Tang Dynasty." Xiao, the soldiers who are far away in the Western Regions, what I think of is a way to make the Western Regions long-term peace and stability."

Nanrong Qingxia was startled, then nodded and said: "You can always think further."

Ye Yi smiled without saying a word.

The candle flickered again, and the wick burst out with a crisp sound. Ye Yi turned his head to look at the sky outside the window, and said to Nanrong Qingxia: "It's late at night, please rest early, Your Majesty."

Nanrong Qingxia looked at Ye Yi with a smile in her eyes, and said, "Do you know why I came to you at this time?"

Ye Yi raised his eyebrows and shook his head in doubt.

Nanrong Qingxia gave Ye Yi a blank look, then got up, and stretched out his hand to Ye Yi after standing up, saying: "I came to take you to sleep in person."

Ye Yi was startled, shook his head and said: "I want to watch it for a while, Your Majesty doesn't need to care about me."

"How could you not care?" Nanrong Qingxia still didn't withdraw her outstretched hand, "I said before that you are my friend. Today I made up my mind to let you sleep well. Get ready, if I don't watch you fall asleep, I won't go to sleep either."

Ye Yi was stunned, and said, "Didn't winning streak stop you?"

Nanrong Qingxia proudly said: "Does he dare?"

Ye Yi had no choice but to say, "Your Majesty, this is called using power for personal gain."

Nanrong Qingxia said straightforwardly: "It's rare to get such great power, wouldn't it be a pity not to use it for personal gain?"

Ye Yi sighed and quickly tidied up all the books on the table.

Seeing this, Nanrong Qingxia withdrew her hand.

Ye Yi stood up, and said helplessly to Nanrong Qingxia: "I don't want to be impeached by the censor tomorrow in the court hall, saying that I don't care about your majesty's dragon body and make your majesty work hard. I would like to obey your majesty's orders, so go to sleep now. Your majesty also please Come back quickly."

Nanrong Qingxia turned around and walked out, said firmly: "I said, today I will watch you fall asleep, and then go to bed. If Aiqing really thinks about me, go to sleep quickly."

Following Nanrong Qingxia out of the gate of the Hongwen Museum, Ye Yi saw the embarrassing Lian Sheng.

When Lian Sheng saw Ye Yi, he had an expression of wanting to cry, and said, "Oh my Lord Ye, you have come out."

Ye Yi glanced at Nanrong Qingxia's back, and said with a teasing smile: "Lian Sheng, let's add more spices to His Majesty's dinner from tomorrow, even if you let His Majesty go to bed early, it doesn't matter."

When Lian Sheng heard this, he widened his eyes and said, "Oh, my lord! You are scaring the servant, and the servant still wants this head."

Nanrong Qingxia turned her head and snorted coldly, and said: "You dare to say such a thing! But your idea is good, Lian Sheng, remember to add seasoning to your Master Ye's dinner tomorrow."

Lian Sheng laughed twice and said, "Your Majesty was joking."

"I'm not joking," Nanrong Qingxia said coldly, "If you, Mr. Ye, don't take a good rest tomorrow, you can give me medicine!"

Ye Yi rubbed his nose and said, "Don't bother Your Majesty, can't I start sleeping in the afternoon?"

"I think it's okay." Saying that, Nanrong Qingxia pushed open the door of the wing room of the Hongwen Pavilion, and walked in first.

As soon as Ye Yi stepped into the door, he felt as if he had gone to the wrong place. This low-key and luxurious room is definitely not the wing room of Hongwen Pavilion, which can barely sleep, but after thinking about it, it was ordered by Nanrong Qingxia to "manage" it , then those maids and eunuchs will definitely take care of what Nanrong Qingxia ordered but didn't order.Why can't an emperor stay in a room with a strange smell?

Looking around, Ye Yi smiled and said: "It seems that thanks to His Majesty's blessing, I can sleep well today."

"Then Ai Qing should go to sleep." Said, Nanrong Qingxia really found a place to sit down, Lian Sheng even offered a cup of tea.

Ye Yi twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Your Majesty, do you really plan to watch the minister sleep?"

Hearing this, Nanrong Qingxia squinted at Ye Yi, and said, "What? I haven't seen you sleeping or what? Tang Xiao specifically asked you not to show it to others?"

Ye Yi touched his nose and shook his head.

"Hurry up, I'm tired."

"Come on, I obey the order." Nanrong Qingxia couldn't resist, Ye Yi could only take off his outer shirt obediently, and climbed onto the bed.

"Lord Ye, wait a moment!" Lian Sheng took a bowl of soup from the hand of the maid and brought it to Ye Yi, "Your Majesty knows that Lord Ye is very worried, and he may not be able to sleep, so he specially prepared soothing soup, Lord Ye, please drink it first." .The servant will light the incense to help you sleep later, so that you can sleep well tonight."

Ye Yi took the bowl, raised the bowl and bowed to Nanrong Qingxia, and said in a false voice, "Thank you for your kindness."

After finishing speaking, Ye Yi drank the not-so-good soup in one gulp.

After Ye Yi covered the quilt and lay down, Lian Sheng lit incense, turned off the lights, and stood quietly beside Nanrong Qingxia in the dark.

Nanrong Qingxia didn't make a sound, just drank tea quietly, and only put down the teacup when she heard Ye Yi's breathing became steady and long.

As soon as he heard the crisp sound of the tea bowl touching the saucer, Lian Sheng walked to the bed in small steps, and after making sure that Ye Yi was really asleep, he returned to Nanrong Qingxia: "Your Majesty, Master Ye is asleep."

"En, let's go." Nanrong Qingxia got up, and quietly left the room with Lian Sheng, and closed the door tightly for Ye Yi.

Walking outside, Nanrong Qingxia looked up at the night sky and suddenly let out a long sigh. She seemed to be talking to herself, but also seemed to be asking Lian Sheng, and said in a low voice: "What else can I do for him?"

Lian Sheng was startled when he heard this, thinking whether he should answer this difficult question, but when he turned his head, he saw Nanrong Qingxia looking up at the sky with a sense of desolation, as if he was not expecting his answer, so Lian Sheng simply Also shut up.

When he was still in the East Palace, he felt that His Majesty was too nice to that Lord Ye. Although His Majesty seemed to think that it was because of the friendship accumulated between the two of them since they were young, he always felt that there was a subtle difference.But until now, it's better for him to pretend he doesn't know, right?
