Chapter 214 Blizzard

Chapter 214 Blizzard

Li Xuan lay on the stone table in the yard and yawned lazily.

The weather gradually became hotter after the summer. Although it rained occasionally, it was sparse and could not effectively cool down.

But the weather is still far from being hot, so Li Xuan can still accept it and does not feel too uncomfortable.

Princess Ankang was reading a book on the side, and the book in her hand turned into the Secret of the North.

Although they borrowed ten books from Qianxing Pavilion last time, one of them was the experience of practicing martial arts borrowed by Li Xuan, and another was a health book borrowed by Yu'er. Princess Ankang only had seven books.

I didn't see it when there was only one book at home before, but Princess Ankang is a veritable little bookworm.

It's been less than a month, and she has finished reading her seven books, and even read Yu'er and Li Xuan's books.

Princess Ankang is now reading the Secret of the North again because she is bored.

This time she is not just reading, but wants to remember the contents above.

The last time Zhao Feng came, he told them that this book recorded a lot of secrets about the northern border, many of which were top secret.

This book should not be lent out, but the confused Mr. Ye lent it to Princess Ankang.

It was a rare opportunity.

They would return the book next month, and Princess Ankang wanted to read more of the content on it, maybe she could remember more about Beiliang.

Beiliang is the hometown of Concubine Xiao, and Princess Ankang is very curious about it.

If she had the chance, she really wanted to go to Beiliang in person to see what her mother's hometown was like.

According to the records in the book, the winter in Beiliang is very long, for a full six months.

Although the weather is very bad, the hardworking people of Beiliang have established a rich country there.

Although the winter in Beiliang is very long, it has extremely rich natural resources.

Forests, minerals, black soil, and all kinds of rare and exotic animals.

The harsh environment makes it a paradise for the beasts.

In the territory of Beiliang, there are many beast tribes that have never been heard of or seen in other places.

These rare beast tribes have also become a resource of Beiliang, which has brought them many conveniences.

Princess Ankang is very interested in everything in Beiliang and plans to read this book again to deepen her impression.

"Your Highness, if you care so much about Beiliang, why not write down a copy of the contents above."

Seeing that Princess Ankang was so concerned about the book, Yu'er couldn't help but suggest.

"It's not appropriate. I'd better remember it in my mind as much as possible."

Princess Ankang shook her head.

She felt that this book was specially lent to her by Mr. Ye. Judging from Zhao Feng's previous reaction, it should be against the rules.

In this case, Princess Ankang should not harm Mr. Ye.

She felt that it should not be a problem for her to read it a few more times and remember all the contents of Beiliang.

"But Your Highness, the book will be returned in a few days. Will there be enough time?"

Yu'er asked with some concern.

"I just don't know if this book can be borrowed a second time by then?"

Yu'er's worry is not unreasonable.

If Princess Ankang never has the chance to lend this book out again, she will regret it for the rest of her life.

Yu'er naturally didn't want this to happen in the future.

Li Xuan listened to the conversation between the two girls, but he wagged his tail indifferently and continued to bask in the sun.

"Yu'er is too worried. If I can't lend it out, I can just steal the book and read it as long as I want."

Li Xuan thought indifferently.

And just as Yu'er said, in a few days it will be time for them to return the book to Qianxing Pavilion.

That's right, a month passed in a flash.

And this also means that the next Imperial Garden competition is about to begin.

"I don't know what will be the competition this month?"

Every time Emperor Yongyuan set the competition items in strange and bizarre ways, so even Li Xuan began to look forward to what kind of items will be held this month.

Li Xuan still had one thing to do before the competition.

Unconsciously, the icy breath in his body was full again.

When the sun was almost out, Li Xuan ran to Princess Ankang's arms, blocked the book she was reading, rubbed her cheek with his head, made a coquettish cry, and then looked into the house silently.

"Meow"

Li Xuan's obvious hint made Princess Ankang's eyes light up.

"Ah Xuan, is it that?"

The little girl swallowed her saliva and asked impatiently.

Li Xuan nodded shyly, and then let Princess Ankang carry him into the house and go to bed.

It was time for them to practice again after a long time.

Princess Ankang was full of expectations, and Li Xuan was uneasy.

Li Xuan was nervous for a reason. He was afraid that Princess Ankang's physique would have another breakthrough.

But he thought about it and felt that it shouldn't be so outrageous.

At this time, Princess Ankang had already climbed onto the bed and made the fish-style starting action.

"Ah Xuan, is it still the fish-style today?"

Li Xuan nodded.

Since it has come, we should make the best of it.

No matter how much he worries, there is nothing he can do.

And he has only practiced this fish-swimming posture twice before, so it should still work.

Li Xuan watched Princess Ankang practice the fish swimming pose. As her physical fitness got better and better, these movements were no longer difficult for her.

In addition, Princess Ankang was already very talented, and her swimming fish style, which only had six moves, was remembered very well.

After all, she had watched Yu'er practice these movements every day for a long time. Later, she received special guidance from Li Xuan, and now she is no worse than Yu'er in practice.

If Zhao Feng saw it, he would be shocked.

Princess Ankang only practiced the Fishing Pose twice before and after.

Compared with her terrifying learning speed, Li Xuan's extraordinary talent is not enough.

But Princess Ankang's evil talent also has its limitations.

Her physique, which was already weak from the beginning, would have withered before she could open the treasure if she had not encountered Li Xuan's "key".

Li Xuan also couldn't imagine what was special about him that could unlock Princess Ankang's treasure.

Speaking of which, there must be countless people in this palace who are more advanced than him.

In other words, if you want to develop Princess Ankang's physique, cultivation is not the most important condition.

Li Xuan recalled the first time he took Princess Ankang to practice martial arts.

At that time, he just hoped to improve Princess Ankang's physical condition, so he took Princess Ankang to practice the Ten Tiger Forms.

At that time, what they practiced was not even the complete Ten Tiger Forms, but only the simplest movement among the Ten Tiger Forms.

But even so, Princess Ankang was out of breath from practicing and soon fell down from exhaustion.

The chill in her body also exploded.

In the past, Princess Ankang would suddenly become cold, then fall seriously ill and be weak for several days.

The only difference that time was that because Li Xuan was anxious, he found the Dantian where the chill broke out in Princess Ankang's body, and then lay down there.

Li Xuan's idea at the time was not complicated. He just thought that since Princess Ankang's belly was so cold, he would use his body temperature to warm her up.

As a result, something went wrong after lying down like this.

The chill that erupted in Princess Ankang's body was absorbed along Li Xuan's body and ran rampant in his body, causing a chain reaction of ice cold breath.

After the breath of ice was driven by the cold, it disappeared without a trace, but the cold that rushed into Li Xuan's body also disappeared.

After that, the cold breath slowly recovered, and then became more pure.

Li Xuan watched Princess Ankang practice martial arts, and couldn't help but be stunned when he recalled this detail.

"Although it was Ankang's first time practicing Qigong at that time, it was not the first time that the chill in her body broke out."

In the past, when Princess Ankang was feeling uncomfortable, Li Xuan would stay with her and sometimes be held by her.

At that time, Li Xuan noticed that Princess Ankang's body was very cold.

But at that time, Li Xuan did not absorb Princess Ankang's chill into his body.

"The breath of ice is the change brought about by the breath of ice!"

Li Xuan seemed to have thought of the key.

"No, no..."

"Both Zhao Feng and Zhao Bugao have also practiced the blood-slaying tiger claws, which shows that they also have the breath of ice in their bodies."

"Apart from them, I'm afraid they are not the only ones in this palace who have mastered the cold breath."

If Princess Ankang's physique could be changed with only the breath of ice, someone would have discovered this method long ago.

Emperor Yongyuan also asked an imperial physician to examine Princess Ankang's illness.

That Dr. Xue had a great reputation and could be said to be a miracle doctor recognized by Daxing.

He would make the judgment that Princess Ankang can only live to be eighteen years old at most, and he must have his basis.

"Breath of ice, tiger essence and blood..."

"Rinhu, the Arctic Tundra..."

"Beijing, Beiliang!?"

As Li Xuan thought about it, he actually thought of Beiliang, the hometown of Concubine Xiao.

This was the only connection he could think of between Breath of Ice and Princess Ankang.

Although Li Xuan also felt that it was a bit far-fetched, it seemed to be the only connection he could think of at the moment.

"Is Ankang's physique related to Beiliang?"

"Even with the ongoing cold wave..."

The more Li Xuan thought about it, the more he became distracted, and he seemed to have vaguely found the key.

But at this moment, a call suddenly came.

"Axuan!"

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment and looked at the direction from which the sound came.

Princess Ankang was lying on the bed, looking at him furtively.

Princess Ankang's hair was soaked with sweat and stuck to her cheek.

"Axuan, what are you thinking about?"

"I've finished playing and want to go to sleep. Are you coming?"

Princess Ankang said, covering herself with the quilt, and Gulu turned around and lay down on the bed, looking like a good baby ready to sleep.

Li Xuan looked at Princess Ankang's cute appearance and couldn't help but smile. After meowing, he immediately got into the bed, found his own position and lay down, preparing to have a beautiful sleep with Princess Ankang.

"Axuan, good night."

Princess Ankang touched the round bulge on her belly, slowly closed her eyes and said good night.

Li Xuan also meowed in the bed.

He could already feel the aroused chill in Princess Ankang's body.

And the icy breath that had just accumulated in Li Xuan's body also became active, preparing to face the impact of the cold.

As the cold breath in his body became more and more pure, his perception of the cold became more acute.

Sometimes, Li Xuan felt that the chill in Princess Ankang's body had the same origin as the breath of ice, but it was much more advanced.

Just like a superior being suppressing a subordinate, in front of Princess Ankang's cold breath, Li Xuan's icy breath could only surrender without even the will to resist.

This reminded Li Xuan of the first time he was hit by the cold, when the cold breath in his body acted as a guide.

Thinking about it this way, it further confirmed his previous conjecture.

"A healthy physique may really be related to..."

"Well!"

Li Xuan's thoughts were interrupted by the pain that hit his body from the cold, making him unable to distract himself from thinking and focusing on suppressing the pain in his body.

It was like a blizzard was blowing inside his body, wreaking havoc on every inch of flesh and blood.

Regardless of whether it was the chill or the breath of ice, it became part of this blizzard at this moment.
