His Royal Highness King Rui thought that he could stay with his brother for the night after doing some manipulations, but he didn't expect that he was kicked out just as he helped Bai Lanshi into the house, and the door closed against his nose.
"Your Highness, did you forget to promise Bai?" Bai Lanshi's voice came from inside the door, and he was smiling when he heard it.
Qi Huan smiled wryly, and looked inside like a gecko lying on the crack of the door, "Brother, it's already noon, Huan'er is hungry."
Qi Huan hastily added, "Huan'er will leave after eating." In the past, he could hold back a little, for fear of scaring his brother, but now it is different from the past, the two of them have communicated with each other, Qi Huan just wants to be by his brother's side all the time, The half-day absence has made him restless.
"Brother lied to me." Qi Huan yelled, and just sat on the stone steps at the door, dejected, like a young seedling beaten by the scorching sun.
He said to himself, "I clearly said that I would not stay overnight, why don't I even let me in during the daytime." The last sentence was yelled out, very wronged, fortunately, Changqing's house is full of people, so they won't gossip Otherwise, His Royal Highness King Rui's appearance might be included in the storybook.
Creaking, the door opened from the inside, Qi Huan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, but quickly pressed it back, knowing that his brother was behind him, he just didn't look, and kicked the air angrily.
Bai Lanshi also sat on the steps like Qi Huan, and Qi Huan jumped up in fright, and stretched out his hand to help him up, "Brother, it's cold on the ground."
Bai Lanshi pulled Qi Huan's wrist to pull him down, and sat side by side, forgetting what happened just now, all he could think about was just sitting on the ground like this, before the day warmed up, his brother would get sick.
The warm sunshine fell on his body, and Bai Lanshi squinted his eyes to feel the breath of spring, "Magnolia should bloom."
Qi Huan took his brother's hand and said, "When the spring breeze blows, all things are born. Brother, wait a little longer, and it will definitely open."
"En." Bai Lanshi leaned his head on Qi Huan's shoulder, the unprecedented contact made Qi Huan stiff, and cautiously stretched out his hand with joy, wrapping his arms around Bai Lanshi's shoulder from behind.
After leaning against each other for a while, Bai Lanshi straightened up and looked at Qi Huan. The two of them were within nose-to-nose distance. Bai Lanshi smiled brightly, "Are you hungry? Eat."
With bright eyes and bright teeth, Qi Huan was dragged into the house by Bai Lanshi before he could react. After a meal, his brother's smile echoed in his mind.
There seemed to be thousands of galaxies in my eyes, all of which fell on my heart without hesitation, and I have been addicted to the galaxies ever since.
In the afternoon, Bai Lanshi looked at the scroll in his hand while relying on a tool, while Qi Huan rested on Bai Lanshi's lap and played with the tassel of the jade pendant on Bai Lanshi's waist.
"Brother, what is the origin of this jade pendant?" Qi Huan raised his face and asked. Bai Lanshi freed one hand to caress Qi Huan's face and said, "There is no history, I will give it to you if you like it."
"Brother's words are serious." Qi Huan's eyes lit up. It's not that the jade is so good, it's just that it belongs to his brother. It seems that he has been carrying it with him all the time. In Qi Huan's heart, this meaning is far higher than that of jade. The value of jade itself.
As Bai Lanshi hooked his finger, he untied the jade pendant from his belt, handed it to Qi Huan and said, "This jade should be spiritual, take good care of it, maybe it can prevent disasters."
When Qi Huan heard this, he hurriedly let go, "I don't want Huan'er anymore, he has to protect my brother from disaster."
Rong Le said through the screen, "My lord, the lucky son of Prince Rui's residence is here."
"Please come in." Bai Lanshi said.
Fuzi crossed the screen and said, "His Royal Highness, there is a message from the palace to invite His Highness to enter the palace."
Qi Huan straightened up, "Understood, wait outside first, I will go out in a while."
"Yes." Fuzi and Rong Le retreated together.
Qi Huan held the jade pendant, looked at Bai Lanshi and said, "Brother, this?"
"Well...is this a token of love?" Bai Lanshi thought for a while before asking.
Love token.
Qi Huan immediately beamed with joy, "Huan'er accepted it."
Bai Lanshi pursed his lips, "Go, don't keep His Majesty waiting."
"Okay." Qi Huan who walked to the door turned back again, leaned down and kissed Bai Lanshi's forehead before leaving.
The bustling streets were filled with the smell of all kinds of food. The carriage pushed through the crowd and drove towards the tallest building in the city.
Qi Huan raised the curtain and asked, "What's the matter?"
Fuzi, who was following outside the carriage, wiped off the sweat on his face and shook his head, "No one is sending a message inside, I guess His Majesty doesn't want outsiders to know."
Qi Huan lowered his eyes, lowered the curtain, and various possibilities flashed through his mind.
The eunuch leading the way brought Qi Huan to the door of His Majesty's bedroom, and then retreated silently.
Qi Huan had no choice but to stand at the entrance of the hall against the sun and wait for the summons. Two people walked quickly from a distance, and it was only when they got closer that they could clearly see that it was Qi Jing and Qi Jingrui.
The two met outside the palace gate and entered the palace together. Seeing these two people, Qi Huan frowned slightly, feeling a bad premonition.
The three princes gathered together, and the door of the sleeping hall creaked open, and the old eunuch Zhou Wenjie beside His Majesty stomped in, looked at the three princes with a smile and said, "Your Majesty, please enter the hall."
Behind the gauze curtain was His Majesty's majestic figure, and the three princes knelt down to pay their respects, "Get up, I just want to see you this time."
His Majesty's voice was a little hoarse, and he cleared his throat several times before opening his mouth, "I have seen what you have done all these years, and I hope that the family and everything will prosper, and don't let ghosts get in the way."
His majesty's beating shocked those who understood, and those who did not understand did not understand.
The tone of the harsh words suddenly changed, and they chatted about trivial matters, but it was enough to shock the hearts of everyone present.
His Majesty was full of energy during the whole process, and no one paid attention to the occasional cough.
After leaving the gate of the palace, it was already dusk outside, the way the three princes get along with each other was completely different from that of their brothers and sisters in the palace, just like strangers, they never parted their eyes.
Qi Huan walked extremely slowly, and when both of them left him behind, he turned his feet and walked towards the Taiji Palace. If he wanted to know why his father was like this today, his mother was the only one who could know.
Sure enough, all the servants in the main hall of Tai Chi Palace were sent away to the outer courtyard, Tong Yuwan was sitting inside, Gao Chao was standing beside him, waiting.
"Greetings to the queen mother." Qi Huan said.
Tong Yuwan raised her eyes and bent the corners of her eyes, but she was not distracted, "Sit down."
"I must have come to ask about the various abnormal behaviors of His Majesty today."
"The queen mother is wise."
Tong Yuwan closed her eyes and rubbed her temples, and said in a tired voice, "Huan'er, Your Majesty's time is running out."
There was a startling sentence in his mouth, and Qi Huan suddenly raised his eyes to look at Tong Yuwan, "Mother and child are dull."
Tong Yuwan opened her eyes, and stretched out her hand superbly and discerningly. Tong Yuwan sat on it and stood up, walking to Qi Huan's side, "Huan'er, you must not reveal a word about what the queen mother told you."
"My son knows how to measure." Qi Huan said.
Tong Yuwan smiled bitterly, leaned down and whispered in Qi Huan's ear.
I saw Qi Huan's face became more and more gloomy with the words, when Tong Yuwan straightened up, Qi Huan stood up and said, "When I was a child, the queen mother protected my son and sister, now the son will bear the responsibility."
Tong Yuwan stretched out her hand to touch Qi Huan's clear-cut side face, tears rolled down her face, and she said in a hoarse voice, "Huan'er has grown up, the queen mother is very pleased."
Qi Huan pursed his lips, only feeling that he was in an abyss, and his whole body was icy cold.
At the same moment in the Evergreen Mansion, Lu Yan knelt on the cushion and handed a sealed and sealed letter to Bai Lanshi.
After reading it, Bai Lanshi smiled ironically, "It seems that some people can't wait."
"My lord, do you want to interfere?" Lu Yan asked.
"No, the great cause can be accomplished only by making the enemy feel omnipotent." Bai Lanshi sank the letter into the water, closed his eyes and said, "It's a pity, some innocent people will eventually become victims between dynasties." Bai Lanshi coughed violently, holding the ground with one hand so as not to fall down, Lu Yan hurriedly helped Qi to breathe, and put his wrist on his wrist to feel his pulse.
"My lord, it's cold again." Lu Yan checked the temperature of Bai Lanshi's forehead, "There's no fever, so it shouldn't be a problem."
Bai Lanshi, who stopped coughing, withdrew his hand, leaned on the support and panted as gently as possible, and waited until he was more comfortable before speaking, "It's okay, but my throat is itchy."
"My lord, if you feel any discomfort, please tell me immediately." Lu Yan said doubtfully.
Bai Lanshi remembered something, and said with a smile, "It's a pity for your son to die now."
Lu Yan said with a smile, "His Royal Highness King Rui is like a child in front of the young master, rolling around like a baby, I can hear his voice in the outer courtyard today."
Bai Lanshi's heart softened a little when he thought of Qi Huan acting like a baby to him regardless of his face.
Lu Yan changed his mind and asked, "Young Master, His Majesty summoned three princes into the palace today. I think His Majesty should know something."
Bai Lanshi sighed, "Your Majesty stands out from the nine princes and hid himself from the throne, but in this scheming battle, he picked himself up completely. Those who can do this are not stupid." The teapot on the small stove was burning red, and the water in it was bubbling. Bai Lanshi put down a handful of tea leaves before continuing, "If your majesty is not an idiot, you already know about the three princes Or they know a lot more than we do, but when people get old, their hearts soften and they are reluctant to do anything."
Lu Yan nodded, "Presumably after today's beating, His Highness Prince Heng can rest in peace for a few days."
"Let's just watch." Bai Lanshi looked at the sunset in the sky, but felt a little empty in his heart, "All it takes is an opportunity to explode."
Hidden in the dark and ordered the snake, just waiting for the lion to fall down, it will rush out with lightning speed, wanting to swallow it in one bite, what Bailanshi has to do is to lure the head snake out when the lion remains .
"Continue to stare at Qi Jingrui, and tell me if there is any trouble. This person is very surly, so tell the brothers to be more vigilant." Bai Lanshi said.
"Yes." Rong Le, who was guarding the door after Lu Yan stepped back, asked inside, "Do you want to eat, my lord?"
Bai Lanshi waved his hands and said, "No need, I'll go to sleep."
Although his body is not as susceptible to wind and cold as before, he feels exhausted after moving a few times, presumably because he has lost too much.
After washing and getting on the bed, Bai Lanshi heard the rustling sound in the courtyard, was startled, blew out the only lamp, slowly stretched his hand to the sword box under the bed, and waited until the gate of the courtyard Open it, draw out the long sword and meet it.
Just as Qi Huan opened the door, he noticed the cold light by the moonlight, and a flash in his mind had he entered his brother's room
Although the opponent's sword was accurate, he lacked some strength, so that the speed dropped a lot. Qi Huan easily dodged sideways and adopted a defensive strategy.
After a few tricks, Qi Huan basically knew who it was, and there was a smile in the corner of his eyes, and he backed away silently.
Knowing that he heard the sound of the clanging sword falling, Qi Huan came back to his senses, and panicked uncontrollably, "Brother." Qi Huan hurriedly lit a candle to see the person clearly.
The sword fell three inches from his feet, Bai Lanshi leaned against the pillar and panted heavily, sweat slid down his cheeks, his chest heaved greatly, and his limbs drooped like boneless.
Qi Huan knelt beside him, wiped his sweat with his sleeve and said, "Brother, are you alright, get up."
Bai Lanshi heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that it was Qi Huan, and stood up with Qi Huan's arms, but his feet were weak and he almost knelt down. Fortunately, Qi Huan hugged him by the waist, Bai Lanshi smiled, "It's okay, I'm exhausted."
Facing Qi Huan's complicated gaze, Bai Lanshi kissed Qi Huan's pale lips, and said with a comforting smile, "Take me to wash up, it's all sweat."
