hold this little monk

He would rather Li Yao stick to him innocently and innocently like before, instead of restrained and introverted like this, is this really the little fat man back then?

Xiaoxuan raised his forehead: "Can we talk about the old days later? I'm doing business."

Li Yao turned to stare at Yingge with a complicated expression, pointed at Yingge, and asked, "Brother likes this type?"

Ying Ge was very dissatisfied with Li Yao's attitude, Emei frowned, and shook off the hand supporting her: "Young master, don't you treat our sisters as something that is sold so flirtatiously!"

"I don't mean that, girl, don't insult yourself."

Li Yao's words seemed to be correct, but his tone was strange no matter how he heard it.Seeing the atmosphere getting weirder, Xiaoxuan hesitated and didn't know how to smooth things over, Yingge's anger had already been directed at everyone.

"The little girl won't belittle herself, please leave!" Yingge smiled, looked at Xiaoxuan and said, "The little girl is not worthy of the young master's painting, so the young master can paint your old friend!"

Xiaoxuan, who was affected by the anger, had nothing to say, he could only drag Li Yao, and while pulling him to apologize to Yingge, he walked out of the yard with the eyes of others watching the excitement.

After Hu Nu from the teahouse left, most of the first floor was scattered, and Xiao Xuan dragged Li Yao into the private room with a dark face.

Shi Yang tasted the authentic Dragon Well that Xiaoer had just brought, and before he tasted it, he was caught off guard that the curtain was lifted, and the tea spilled out in fright.

Shi Yang was puzzled: "Who messed with you? Didn't you go down and molested the beard girl? Why did you molested two fair and clean young men!"

"What's molesting and not molesting." Xiaoxuan pinched his brows, feeling extremely tired, "This is my...brother."

Li Yao hesitated for a while, then said, "Brother, this..."

"Stop, stop." Yu Xiaoxuan sat down and looked up at him, "Let me ask you first, why are you here."

Li Yao glanced at the young master behind him, the man was very understanding, and silently exited the private room.

"My brother can be here, why can't I?" Li Yao said lightly.

As soon as he heard this, he knew that he was blaming him.Xiaoxuan was quite helpless: "I was ordered by someone to come here to make a statue of a bearded lady. You have taken away my popularity, how can I make a job?"

What he said was true. The empress ordered him and Shi Yang to start drawing a picture of all living beings in Daping during the Chinese New Year. They wanted to draw a hundred people with different characteristics to show the richness of Daping's culture.According to the Queen's request, foreigners, Dongying people, Hu people... and other outsiders are all the objects of their Ziling Palace. If they didn't want to paint these people, they would have no chance to leave the palace.

"Understood, my brother is now the court painter of Ziling Palace, the celebrity in front of His Majesty, my Louxian Palace can no longer compete with him." Li Yao said.

Xiaoxuan: "What do you mean by that?"

"What do you mean?" Li Yao chuckled, "Brother, why don't you go back and ask Daoist Yu? It's been eight years, and they begged Mr. Zhang so many times. They just want to see you. You...how could you be so cruel?" ah."

Li Yao's words were like Shen Tie, and he slammed on Xiaoxuan coldly and viciously, making him dizzy and almost unable to think, he said in a low voice, "What are you talking nonsense about?"

Have you been looking for him?Then why didn't he hear the wind at all?These eight years...

He thought it was because they gave up on him.

He also thought that it was because of his wishful thinking that he ran to the gorgeous birdcage of the imperial palace and tried his best to deal with Louxian Palace.

Xiaoxuan's clothes were wet with cold sweat, although it was warm spring, he seemed to have returned to Ladong.

Li Yao's mouth twitched, and he turned his head to look at Shi Yang, his guard was self-evident.

Shi Yang understood that this was driving him out, he hesitated for a moment, then suddenly met Xiaoxuan's dull eyes, and was taken aback.He never imagined that such a complex expression appeared on the face of his seemingly omnipotent and fearless student, forbearing, dazed, and at a loss.

Thinking of two years ago, when Louxian Palace was read by the officials, the empress took advantage of the opportunity to draft an edict to abolish the status of Guoguan.He, a student who seemed to have no interest in everything, suddenly seemed to be a different person. He frantically changed his way to mention the importance of Taoism in front of the queen.

Even if he later annoyed His Majesty, in the face of the pressure of the emperor, at the age of sixteen, he still did not change his face, and he spoke back with a brilliant tongue... If it weren't for his moving calm and bravery at that time, His Majesty might have Tore Lou Xiangong's golden body away.

Yu Taoist, Taoist Temple, Xiaoxuan, Louxian Palace...

At that time, Shi Yang was surprised, Xiaoxuan was heartless on weekdays, and he didn't care much when he was bullied, but he was very concerned every time he heard about Louxian Palace. I'm afraid only the people in the game knew the reason for this .

"I'll wait for you outside, and you should make it clear quickly that mother-in-law and mother are not like you. Don't forget the time when we return to the palace." Shi Yang glanced at the student who was full of secrets opposite him, put down his teacup and walked out.

The two of them were left in the private room, and the sweet smell and tea smell that had been permeating before also disappeared completely in the low-pressure environment. Li Yao breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head, as if this could make the hostility go away. Like shaking away.

He sat on Shi Yang's seat, lowered his eyes and said in a low voice: "I just... I was just me, I thought I would never see you again in this life, I didn't mean to blame you. I..."

Li Yao's nose was red, and even if he lowered his head, he couldn't hide the damp eyelashes.The maturity he had pretended before was swept away, he gasped, and simply stretched out his hands to cover his face, and let out a long sigh.

"I just... miss you."

His last two words were barely audible, but they were still clear in the small box.

Xiaoxuan's hand that was about to pour tea for him shook, the hot tea overflowed and burned his fingers, he shrank his fingers sharply, but still handed the tea to Li Yao with a calm expression.

Li Yao didn't notice his small movements, raised his head slightly to take the tea, looked up at him, his eyes were already red, and the grievances in his eyes were clearly visible: "Where did you go, we couldn't find you."

Before seeing Li Yao holding back his emotions and greeting him like a little adult, he was at a loss; now facing Li Yao showing all his true feelings in front of him, he calmed down.

He hooked the corner of his mouth, rubbed the boy's head, and said, "I know, thank you for your hard work."

Seeing Li Yao's current young master's attire, Xiao Xuan could guess that this child is now taking his place, carrying the heavy responsibility of the young master of Louxian Palace.

Xiaoxuan put his arms around his shoulders and joked, "Don't be so mournful, it's like seeing my dead body. Fortunately, when I saw you just now, I thought you had grown up."

Li Yao blew his nose, took a deep breath and said, "I'm usually very mature, but today is different."

"Okay, you are the most mature. By the way, brother Yueban, I don't have much time, so I will talk about the old days later." Xiaoxuan smiled, "Now drink a cup of tea to moisten your throat, and tell me about my parents , don't procrastinate like a little girl."

When it came to Louxian Palace, Li Yao's expression darkened, and he nodded: "After you listen, give me an explanation."

……

There were endless streams of horse-drawn carriages on the long street, and the golden twilight shone on the bluestone slabs. The vendors around them were already rubbing their rags and preparing to close their stalls. They were exhausted from the work of the day, but the wealth they gained filled them with joy.

But Xiaoxuan was incompatible with these joys and fatigues. He helped Shi Yang get into the carriage, but he almost tripped over himself.He is able to hide his true thoughts most of the time, Shi Yang has never seen him lost his mind.

"Could it be possible that you can still be seduced by a man?" Shi Yang tapped him with a wooden crutch, "I pretend that I don't know some things, but if you want to say something, I can help you out of your troubles."

Xiaoxuan was knocked by him, hissed in pain, finally came back to his senses, hesitated for a while, and revealed his life experience: "I... am actually the son of Yu Hao, the owner of Louxian Palace. My surname is Yu, and my name is Xiaoxuan. .”

Shi Yang rolled his eyes: "Whose son are you none of my business, I'm asking you what you were thinking just now, you were so out of your mind!"

Xiaoxuan was stunned, and laughed dumbly: "Teacher, you are really..."

There are too few people who don't believe in religion in this era. Yu Xiaoxuan reckoned that if he reported his identity, those who believed in Taoism would definitely cheer for him, and those who believed in Buddhism would definitely pick up a brick for him, but he didn't expect Shi Yang to be so dismissive.

Shi Yang knew what he wanted to say, and said, "I'm not one of those ordinary people, how many people in the world are really religious, and everyone is just following the crowd."

"The teacher sees it thoroughly." Xiaoxuan nodded and said, "The student does have doubts at this moment, and I'm afraid it will bother the teacher."

Shi Yang sat upright, full of energy and confidence: "It's okay, you say it!"

Xiaoxuan tilted his head and thought for a while, then said with a smile, "How do you kill an imperial court official?"

Shi Yang was stunned: "..."

"Teacher, do you think it's absurd?" Xiaoxuan said, "I just had a whim, and just casually..."

"You want to kill Zhang Xuchuan? Are you the one who fights back? Your hand can hold a knife besides a paintbrush?" Shi Yang snorted coldly, "You hated him when you were ten years old, what's wrong now, just skip the hate , want to kill him?"

Xiaoxuan's smile remained unchanged, but his eyes turned cold: "He really plays with my family."

Yu Hao tried every means to get Zhang Xuchuan to send a message to him, but Zhang Xuchuan didn't say a word, rejected Yu Hao in his name, and forcibly left his relationship with Louxiangong completely.For eight years, he didn't even know it.Xiaoxuan laughed angrily, clenched his hands into fists and his fingertips turned white.

Shi Yang's heart skipped a beat.Zhang Xuchuan is really talented to make this kid like this.

"I don't know how to kill people, but if you miss home, I have a plan." Shi Yang said suddenly.
