Back to Li Qinglin's palace - it's not actually a palace, because Li Qinglin doesn't have a title, it's just a prince's palace. Qin Yi didn't know why Li Qingjun had a title, but Li Qinglin didn't.

Of course, I am afraid that this place will soon become the Prince's Mansion, and it doesn't matter whether there is a title or not. Qin Yi stood at the door, took out Li Qinglin's waist card, and was about to let someone pass it on, but when the middle door was wide open, Li Qingjun was standing in front of him.

"Why did you come back?" Qin Yi was very surprised. With such a big event as the death of the prince, how long did it take you to come back after entering the palace

"Father and brother... and brother Wang are discussing matters. I'm sitting and I'm sitting. I just came out to see you." Li Qingjun said blankly: "I was worried that you would not be used to living there, but you didn't enter the mansion at all. "

"I went out for a walk and bought something."

Li Qingjun's eyes fell on his rucksack.

The bulging rucksack, originally the handle of the mace was exposed, looked very discordant, but now there is an unknown wooden handle, and it looks like a bumpkin entering the city. Li Qingjun said angrily: "What do you want, tell the housekeeper to buy it, they will try their best to satisfy you, why bother wandering around by yourself?"

"so good?"

"Of course." Li Qingjun turned around and led him in, "You are a guest invited back by Brother Wang himself, who would dare to neglect you?"

Immediately left and right, the house steward nodded and bowed: "Princess, Mr. Qin's residence is ready."

Li Qingjun said lightly: "Lead the way."

Qin Yi looked at Li Qingjun with great interest and thought it was very funny.

In the past, Li Qingjun was a reckless but daring chivalrous girl. Now that she has returned to the capital and the prince's mansion, she is a calm and graceful princess.

Qin Yi is convinced that Li Qingjun in Jianghu is her real side, but she wonders if Li Qingjun in Beijing is acting like she is, or is she the other side of her character

The house steward prepared an independent courtyard for Qin Yi. The layout is somewhat similar to Qin Yi's own courtyard, but the carved beams and painted buildings are much richer. The courtyard is no longer herbs, but full of flowers and green grass, and the fragrance is refreshing. , elegant and beautiful.

The steward saluted, "His Royal Highness has already sent someone back to report, saying that Mr. Qin is happy with Jing and Shangya, so he made this arrangement. If Mr. is not satisfied, we can change another room."

Qin Yi shook his head and said, "It's very good here. It's better to have a sunny sky, sometimes I'm useful."

The steward immediately turned his head and instructed: "Go and level the grass behind..."

There are servants going to work soon, Qin Yi hurriedly said, "Wait, wait, no need."

The servants immediately stopped and ordered to stop. It seems that Li Qinglin used the style of governing the army at home

Qin Yi looked at Li Qingjun with a headache, but Li Qingjun remained expressionless and did not speak. He said helplessly: "That's it, the princess and I have something to say."

The steward was very sensible and led the people to evacuate. Li Qingjun stood quietly for a long time, watching the servant walk away from the corner of his eyes, and soon lost his ladylike elegance and sat down on the lawn next to him: "I'm really tired. "

Qin Yi laughed dumbly. He sat with her on the lawn and asked, "When I was fighting with the demon, when the corner of my mouth was bleeding, I didn't see you shouting tired. How long has it been since I came back..."

Li Qingjun was silent for a moment, then sighed: "If you die big brother, I'm afraid you will be just as tired."

His eyes turned red as he spoke, obviously he had been holding back his sadness before, but now he finally couldn't hold it any longer.

"Well..." Qin Yi said apologetically, "I'm sorry."

This girl was bullied by herself earlier and felt aggrieved. Tears fell, but her face was still hard. This was the first time Qin Yi saw her with a sad and weak feeling. It can be seen that no matter how chivalrous women are, there is still the softest place in their hearts, such as family affection.

She has a very good relationship with Li Qinglin, and her relationship with the prince who she has never met is obviously not bad. Qin Yi believes that it is difficult for such a sister to have a conflict with any brother, and it should be the kind that everyone hurts.

"It's nothing." Li Qingjun twitched his nose, and his expression turned fierce: "It must be done by the barbarians of the Western Wilderness, just to cause trouble!"

Qin Yi is not easy to talk to. Li Qingjun didn't expect him to solve the case, but just looked for a place to speak, and continued: "One day, I will wipe out the Xihuang and avenge my eldest brother!"

Qin Yi nodded and followed her: "With brother Qinglin's planning, this day will come sooner or later."

"Well." Li Qingjun trusted Li Qinglin very much: "It must be possible."

After saying this, the two of them were a little cold. Qin Yi didn't know what to say to comfort her, and she also looked at the sky in a trance to herself. The two sat quietly on the lawn, silent.

After a while, Li Qingjun suddenly said: "I still remember the words I first saw you, saying that you eat well, sleep well, and have no worries. Isn't that a fairy? Now? You are a fairy and we are mortals. Yuefan?"

Qin Yi sighed: "There are always things that must be done, even gods want something."

"Those who seek are only those who seek the path of immortality. How can a real immortal ask for anything?" Li Qingjun looked at the sky and whispered: "You taught the woodcutter to sing the "Good Song", and you will be obsessed with all living beings. But, it is a fairy, and there is nothing to ask for."

Qin Yi knew that the assassination of her eldest brother was a big blow to Li Qingjun, and the idea of seeking immortals that had always been rooted in her heart was provoked again. He persuaded: "I know there is a monkey who traveled all over the world, searching for a fairy for ten years, and finally found a real fairy and learned the method of immortality. Do you think it can be regarded as an immortal with no desires and no desires? ?"

"Of course, how can you not be a fairy after longevity?" Li Qingjun became interested: "What about later?"

"Later... Anyway, I know that he was really carefree before he searched for immortals, but after he obtained the Tao, he couldn't live in peace, and finally put on the shackles and became a Buddha. How far is it from his original intention to become an immortal like this, and will he not regret it in the end?"

Li Qingjun stared at Qin Yi, she felt that the monkey was made up by Qin Yi to insinuate herself: "Are you... admonishing me?"

Qin Yi shook his head and said, "No, everyone has their own fate, but I think people still have to know what they want."

"What do you want..." Li Qingjun looked at the sky in a trance and whispered to himself: "What I want is to carry my two silver spears, to traverse the world, enter and leave Qingming, and sweep away the injustices in the world... instead of being a noble girl in Beijing , and finally recruit an uninteresting concubine to be trapped in this life."

Qin Yi couldn't help but said, "You really gave in the wrong child."

Li Qingjun smiled and said, "Can you tell me the story of that monkey in detail?"

"That's a long story..."

Li Qinglin was busy at this time, and Qin Yi didn't know what he should do for the time being when he first arrived. It happened that Li Qingjun was sitting here chatting, but he was the only person he knew in the capital. Qin Yi didn't think it was too long, and he really started talking to her about Journey to the West.

Li Qingjun was fascinated by the unheard of stories, and said with a chuckle, "What a wild and untamed monkey."

Li Qinglin's voice came from outside the hospital: "This is a monkey who dares to resist and fight for it, even if what it does may be a sin. It's an interesting story, and I look forward to Brother Qin's follow-up."

Both of them stood up, and Li Qingjun's expression became solemn again: "What's the matter?"

"There is no clue." Li Qinglin said solemnly: "The murderer was very fast. According to the eldest brother's guard, only seeing the shadow flash, the eldest brother... I personally suspect that Xihuang did it."

Li Qingjun pursed his lips.

Li Qinglin said again: "You and I were not there when the incident happened, and I couldn't intervene temporarily. Father Wang is doing his best to investigate, and there will be results in the end."

Li Qingjun sighed: "Are you going to be a prince?"

"Well..." Li Qinglin couldn't see the joy on his face, instead he shook his head: "This is really... roasted on a fire."

Li Qingjun asked, "Does anyone think you are suspicious?"

"Well, although there are only a few, there are inevitably some, but this kind of questioning is meaningless."

It really doesn't make sense, because the king has only two sons, and it is impossible to make the only remaining son a suspect because of a little unfounded doubt.

Li Qinglin didn't continue this topic, and turned to Qin Yi: "Brother Qin, I'm really sorry. It happened suddenly and I was neglected."

"Princess has been with me for a whole day. Where is the negligence?" Qin Yi pointed at the sky: "The sun is setting, so it's a snub if you don't invite me to dinner."

Li Qinglin laughed.
