Stranger and Chen in the Palace

what are you up to? "Xue Zimo gently pressed his hand that untied his sword.

Ling Yichen smiled slightly: "Because of it."

"No need, I still have money." Xue Zimo said quickly.

This sword was given to Ling Yichen by the late emperor, and it has been with him for many years, and it can be regarded as the last thought left to him by his father.

Ling Yichen took off the saber quickly, and joked: "I don't need it anyway, and you don't allow me to use it, so it's a burden to keep it."

He would not tell Xue Zimo how distressed he was when he learned that he was selling paintings.

If it wasn't because of him, Xue Zimo would still be the grand master of the prime minister, the proud son of heaven admired by scholars all over the world, how could he be reduced to selling paintings for a living?

Seeing that Ling Yichen insisted on pawning the sword, Xue Zimo felt a little helpless.

This Fixing Shadow Sword was the proud work of Xu Gongqi, a famous swordsmith, so Ling Yichen easily took it for 3 taels of silver.

After coming out of the pawn shop, Ling Yichen gave Xue Zimo all the stacks of bank notes that he deserved.

Xue Zimo was slightly moved, and he didn't know that he did it because he was reluctant to sell his paintings.

However, he was moved, he still felt that it was unnecessary, the 3000 taels of silver plus his own was enough for them to spend a lifetime.

After participating in the horse racing event and pawning the sword again, it was getting late.

Fireworks were set off beside Longshui Lake. This annual horse racing event is really lively!

The beauty of the blooming night sky attracted the two to the shore of Longshui Lake. Not only them, but many people gathered around the lake to watch the fireworks, especially some couples and children who love to join in the fun.

Longshui Lake is very big, and there are many embroidered red boats coming and going in the lake. Some people drink wine and write poems, guess riddles and boxing games, and get drunk on money. It's so lively...

"How about we go to the boat to watch the fireworks?" Ling Yichen said softly.

"How to get there?" Xue Zimo asked, none of those boats were docked at the shore now.

"Simple."

As soon as the words fell, Xue Zimo felt that his body lost gravity, but it was Ling Yichen who picked him up by the waist, flew across the water like a dragonfly, and landed firmly on a boat with the fewest people.

Such a handsome lightness skill, bursts of applause came from the bank!

Xue Zimo's face blushed, he was so ashamed to hug him like this in public, and couldn't help but glared at Ling Yichen, who was smiling harmlessly.

Chuan Gong was disturbed by Ling Yichen, and seeing their faces clearly, he was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses.

"You two sons, this..."

Ling Yichen coolly took out a bank note and handed it over: "Let it for one night."

After receiving the 100 taels of silver ticket, Chuan Gong's face burst into smiles, he may not be able to earn so much in half a year!

Can't help nodding again and again: "Okay, okay..."

Xue Zimo sighed. He finally understood why Ling Yichen felt that the money was not enough. According to his way of spending, 3000 taels would not cost a few days.

If he knew that Ling Yichen gave all the hundreds of taels of silver to the shopkeeper in order to learn a few dishes, he didn't know how he would feel.

The two sat side by side on the bow of the boat, and the boat sailed slowly along the flowing water, passing by the beautiful scenery on both sides.

Ling Yichen wrapped people in his arms, the sky was full of fiery trees and silver flowers, and large and beautiful fireworks bloomed one after another in the night, and dots of petals continuously flowed, flickered, and fell from the night sky...

During those countless dark and cold days with no love in his life, he never thought that in this life, he would really have the opportunity to watch fireworks with him side by side.

Hugging the person in his arms tighter, Ling Yichen smiled like a child.

The beauty of this life, the happiness of this life, is like this.

It wasn't until early morning that the banks of Longshui Lake became quiet. The sky was full of bright moon and stars, and the surroundings were quiet and silent.

The bright moonlight shrouded the lake lightly, as if covered with a layer of silver-white tulle, reflecting everything in a blurred and dreamy way.

The boatman had already gone in to rest, and the boat was moored in the middle of the lake.

Ling Yichen stared at the person in his arms, Xue Zimo had already fallen asleep.

She lowered her head and planted a kiss on his beautiful eyes, very lightly, very lightly...

With his soft sleeping face, his heart became infinitely softer, Ling Yichen quietly took out the signal tube that Lian Feng gave him.

turn on.

A ray of brightness suddenly flashed across the dark night sky, and then fell silent.

Ling Yichen smiled slightly,

I wish I could hold him like this all my life,

quietly guarding him,

Forever……

It was just dawn, Xue Zimo's snowy eyelashes trembled, and her beautiful eyes slowly opened.

Ling Yichen pampered him with his black hair on his temples, and said with a soft smile, "Let's go home!"

Suddenly, a little homesick!

Xue Zimo also smiled and nodded.

When the two returned to the bamboo house, it was already late at night.

Seeing that Ling Yichen was still sitting at the desk writing something, Xue Zimo asked casually, "What are you writing?"

Ling Yichen saw Xue Zimo approaching, put down the pen in his hand, and walked towards him.

"Why don't you write?" Xue Zimo was surprised.

Ling Yichen smiled wickedly, and grabbed his waist: "Because there are more important things to do."

More important things?

When Ling Yichen took him to the bed and leaned over to kiss him, he realized what the more important thing was.

At noon on the second day, Ling Yichen cooked a table full of dishes.

Xue Zimo was slightly surprised, three of the dishes were the same as what they ate in the restaurant two days ago, he thought the taste of those three dishes was good, so he ate more.

"Try it." Ling Yichen smiled at him.

Xue Zimo picked up the chopsticks and put a little bit in his mouth, even the taste was almost the same!

"How could you..." Xue Zimo was surprised.

Ling Yichen smiled: "Is it delicious?"

Xue Zimo nodded, this time is really good!

"I went to the kitchen to learn that day." Ling Yichen picked up the chopsticks and happily picked up vegetables for him.

Xue Zimo was even more surprised: "In just a short time, you learned so well?"

"I'm excellent!" Ling Yichen smiled cheekily.

In fact, he didn't expect that he had a talent for cooking.He tasted it before giving it to Xue Zimo, and he didn't dare to serve it until he confirmed that the taste was similar.

Xue Zimo lowered his eyes when he heard this.

Ling Yichen has indeed always been excellent. Over the years, even though he has lived here in seclusion, he knows that Ling Yichen has managed the country very well.

The national power is growing stronger and stronger, and the people are living a prosperous and healthy life.

He is an excellent emperor, if he continues to rule this country, he will be able to create a prosperous world within a few years.Now, he gave up everything for himself...

Seeing that Xue Zimo stopped talking suddenly, Ling Yichen hurriedly took chopsticks to try if there was something wrong with the food, but he didn't find anything wrong after tasting it for a long time, so he couldn't help but get nervous: "Mo, you don't like the food I cook?"

Xue Zimo shook his head and smiled: "No, I like it very much."

Ling Yichen was overjoyed when he heard the words: "I'll make it for you every day." After thinking about it, he felt wrong, "Do it differently."

Xue Zimo smiled and ate quietly, feeling so warm in his heart.

in the afternoon.

Doctor Tang came over to feel Ling Yichen's pulse.

"How?" Xue Zimo asked eagerly beside him.Now Ling Yichen's body was what he was most worried about. He had been drinking medicine for several months, but his cough was getting worse and worse.

Seeing his nervousness, Ling Yichen held him lightly, and comforted him, "I'm much better now, don't worry."

"You're not a doctor, so don't talk." Xue Zimo looked at Doctor Tang again who was taking his pulse.

After a while, Doctor Tang withdrew his hand back.

"Mr. Cheng's injury has healed, but the old illness is more troublesome..." Doctor Tang suddenly caught a glimpse of the warm jade pillow on the bed, and was startled, "May I take a look at this jade pillow?"

Xue Zimo nodded: "Of course." After speaking, he handed the jade pillow to Doctor Tang.

Due to Ling Yichen's special status, and "Ling" is a national surname, he had to hide Ling Yichen's real name from Dr. Tang, and only took a surname based on the homonym of his name.

Ling Yichen looked at Xue Zimo, then at the surprised Doctor Tang, and saw him gently stroking the jade pillow with his hands, and couldn't help but say, "Is this pillow made of warm jade?"

Ling Yichen nodded.

At that time, he saw that Xue Zimo had dropped the quilt in the cold night, so he left this warm jade pillow, which has the effect of warming the body, and gave it to Xue Zimo.

"This jade pillow is very good for your body. With the help of it and the hot spring on the mountain, it can suppress the cold in your body." Doctor Tang said to Ling Yichen.

"Really?" Xue Zimo was pleasantly surprised.

Ling Yichen suddenly understood Shunde's real intention to replace him with a jade pillow back then, and he couldn't help feeling warm when he thought of the person who had taken care of him for more than ten years.

Doctor Tang nodded: "His chronic illness is very troublesome. He took medicine to recuperate well at the beginning of the cold, but now the effect is not great. I am still worrying about it. Now he is fine..."

Xue Zimo was very happy, thanked Dr. Tang repeatedly, and sent him out.
