Travel back to ancient times to play danmei

The night is dark and moonless, the thick clouds are gloomy, and the vision is dim and unclear. The vast grassland is endless, and the waves are blowing with the wind.

Xuan Yichen stood alone beside the Crescent Moon Pond, quietly looking at the translucent water. The Crescent Moon Pond lived up to its name, shaped like a crescent moon. Apart from the Kongque River, it was the closest source of water to the settlement of the Pingqiang royal family. Because of its ancient existence, it is known as a holy spring, and herdsmen are not allowed to drink their livestock here.

Someone came gradually, saw Xuan Yichen and knelt respectfully, "Second prince."

Xuan Yichen turned around and looked at him with a calm expression, "You invited me here, what exactly are you trying to say? Xiao Luan."

Xiao Luan raised his head, with unspeakable excitement on his childish face, "Second Prince, do you still remember me? I am Yu Zijin's son, Yu Hui."

"Yu Hui?" Xuan Yichen frowned and pondered for a while, and had some vague impressions. Seven or eight years ago, when Emperor Fenglan handed over "Shadow" to him, he asked them to investigate in order to test "Shadow"'s ability Yu Zijin, the servant of the Ministry of War, was found guilty of forming a party for personal gain, but the execution was imminent, and Xuan Yichen only had time to save Yu Hui, Yu Zijin's only son, and everyone in Yu's family had already been punished.

"I remember that tattoo, if you want blood, it will show up. It's the head of a howling wolf. It can't be wrong!" Xiao Luan said, and kowtowed again, "You helped my father to redress his grievances. I will never forget your great kindness."

The tattoo on the head of the howling moon wolf is the symbol of the owner of the "Shadow" over the years. Xuan Yichen had a new tattoo that year, and was accidentally seen by Xiao Luan when he was changing his dressing, and he was deeply impressed.

"Your father was framed by someone, and I have never been able to save him. How can you be kind?" Xuan Yichen said, "It's been so many years, so don't bring it up again, get up."

Xiao Luan was still kneeling, looking at Xuan Yichen with firm eyes, "You asked me to find something valuable to do, Xiao Luan lived up to expectations!"

Xuan Yichen turned his head to look at him, he was just saying something unintentionally back then, so that Xiao Luan, who had no hope in life, would think about it, but he didn't expect this kid to take it seriously, "Just tell me."

"I entered the Bloody Hall of the Lore Palace!"

"Lore Palace." Xuan Yichen was silent. A large part of the reason for cooperating with Hua Jianzhao this time was that Hua Jianzhao told him that the Lore Palace was a hindrance. The Lore Palace has always been mysterious, and even the power of the royal family is difficult to penetrate. Among them, Hua Jianzhao's condition at that time was also very weird, asking him not to pursue everything about the Lore Palace...

The entanglements involved are not as simple as Hua Jianzhao's "lore palace and Nan Huai have an interest negotiation".

"Second prince, although the rules of the Lore Palace are strict and difficult to penetrate, but I have stayed there for many years, and I have some understanding. Yan Sulan's identity does not seem to be pure, and it should be related to the Nanhuai royal family."

Xuan Yichen nodded and said, "I see, you have done a good job, remember to hide your identity first, otherwise you will only cause trouble to your upper body, and you must tell me as soon as you have any news about the Lore Palace."

"Yes!" Xiao Luan was happy in his heart, what he had done for so many years was finally meaningful, Xuan Yichen was his benefactor in his heart, and he was also a strong man whom he remembered since he was a child, and he admired him very much.

Xuan Yichen pondered for a while, then suddenly asked, "Liu Er, is he from the Lore Palace?"

Xiao Luan shook his body, and said hesitantly, "Although Brother Liu is, but he lost his memory when he was in Zuihuanlou, and he doesn't remember the previous things..."

"Is that so..." Xuan Yichen couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, he had already expressed his intentions to Liu Juqi, but he actually kept it a secret, and didn't reveal anything about the Lore Palace.

"Our task is to get close to the prince, but Brother Liu has always been casual and didn't take Yan Sulan's words to heart. He won't hurt—"

Before Xiao Luan finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xuan Yichen, "Xiao Luan, I still know what kind of person Liu'er is, so go back first, I want to be alone for a while."

Xiao Luan sneaked a glance at Xuan Yichen, but couldn't see any emotion in him, so he left Crescent Moon Park nervously.

Did Liu Juqi stay with him for love or for the so-called mission?unknown……

Such a accompanying person actually has a secret.

Xuan Yichen took a deep breath and said with a wry smile, "Forget it, he might just be worried, just wait a little longer, it's much better for him to tell me than I ask him."

*****

Liu Juqi, Hua Jianzhao, Qian Xing, and Princess Wan played mahjong with a lamp. The mahjong is made of wood, the sharp corners have been polished, and a layer of varnish has been applied, which is very delicate.

At the beginning, everyone was still struggling, so it was enough to come and go a few times. The three young people deliberately let Princess Wan go, and they often let go, and Princess Wan became more and more enthusiastic.

King Ping Qiang sent someone to urge him several times but there was no response, so he had to come to invite him in person, but the man didn't invite him back, but was dragged to the mahjong table by Princess Wan, Yan Ling took Hua Jian's photo, and King Ping Qiang replaced Liu Juqi , and continued their sprawling business of rubbing hemp.

Liu Juqi and Qian Ying came out of the tent, and the cold wind outside made their minds clearer, "Princess Wan is really interested."

"She just likes new things. With you here, she is like a fish in water. How about it? Does Liu'er want to stay in the grassland and be my princess?" Hua Jianzhao teased him.

Just as he was talking, he suddenly heard a scream, which was silent for a moment. Liu Juqi tugged at Hua Jianzhao's sleeve, "Hua Die... Are you, your grassland haunted?"

"What the hell is going on? It's Xuan Yichen who is interrogating that cook. Have you forgotten about being bullied?"

Liu Juqi opened his mouth in disbelief, "How could Xuan Yichen do such things as interrogation..."

Hua Jianzhao shook his head and poked his forehead helplessly, "I'm afraid you are the only one who thinks he is gentle and easy to get along with, but don't blame me for not reminding you that Xuan Yichen is a tiger who likes to keep its claws. Three years ago, the plague was rampant in Handu. , it was Xuan Yichen who asked for an order to seal the city and set it on fire, do you know how many people there are in Handu? More than [-]."

"How can you burn the city? There must be people inside who are not infected!"

"So what? The plague is difficult to cure. If the epidemic is allowed to spread in Handu, it may shake the foundation of the country." Hua Jianzhao sighed, "Although Xuan Yichen's method is harsh, it can indeed solve the problem."

Liu Juqi couldn't help shivering, as if he had seen countless people struggling in the sea of ​​fire, his stomach was overwhelmed, "Hua Jianzhao, what if it was you?"

"I don't have such a hard heart, so, I will never inherit the great power." Huajian said, "Liuer, a tiger is a tiger, and it is not a cat if it has its sharp claws. How many people can there be in the struggle for imperial power?" Personal cleanliness? Either you die or I die, there is no room for the kindness of a woman...Xuan Yichen is naturally no exception."
