Chapter 22:
His Royal Highness...Xue Yan.
Jun Huailang was stunned for a moment, and then, bursts of coolness appeared from his back.
The book...the one he read after he died.
In that book, Xue Yan once said something he couldn't understand, but now, what happened today has coincided with the sentence in the book that he didn't understand.
In the book, halfway through the plot, Xue Yan acted daringly and imprisoned the empress dowager in a secret room. Jun Linghuan resisted in every possible way, crying to Xue Yan and said, "If you can't keep me, someone will definitely find me!"
I have been taught a long time ago."
Hearing this, Jun Linghuan seemed to recall some terrible experience, trembling all over, unable to speak.
Xue Yan leaned closer to her ear and whispered, "Remember? As long as the lonely king wants to lose you, even in the palace, no one can find you. ."
At that time, Jun Huailang didn't take his words to heart because he never knew that his sister was lost, and was eager to see what happened next. But given what happened today...
Jun Huailang was like falling into an ice cave, feeling cold all over.
Isn’t this sentence he doesn’t understand and just casually refers to today? Xue Yan lost Jun Linghuan, formed a grudge with her, and humiliated her in the future... Mostly because of what happened today.
Jun Huailang's spine was cold all the way to the bottom, and a deep self-blame appeared in his heart.
It's him... He lived a new life, but he didn't do everything in detail, so what happened in the previous life was repeated again, and his sister took the old path of the previous life again, and got entangled with Xue Yan again...
He stood up suddenly, almost overturning the desk in front of him. He couldn't care less, grabbed the little **** and walked out quickly: "Where did the eldest miss leave you? Take me there quickly!"
The little **** really surprised him.
Several other nobles were anxious when they heard about this. However, the guards in the palace are heavily guarded, and there are palace servants everywhere. Even if the child is lost, there will be no danger. No one is as nervous as this one.
The little **** was startled by him, and he stammered when he spoke: "The Royal Garden...the West Corner Gate of the Royal Garden! Don't be in a hurry, Your Highness, the servant will take you there..."
Besides Jun Xiaowu and Xue Yunhuan also hurriedly followed. Although Jun Xiaowu looked flustered, he still persuaded Jun Huailang: "Don't be afraid, brother, Ling Huancai is a little older and can't run far. With so many people in the palace, she won't be easily lost."
Jun Huailang just walked out all the way, her throat was hard, she couldn't make a sound, she just shook her head with difficulty.
The palace is heavily guarded, and the nobles will not easily get lost.
But it is precisely because of this that Jun Huailang is afraid.
This impossible thing, if it is related to Xue Yan, it cannot be explained by common sense.
Jun Huailang was confused along the way. For a while, he thought of the miserable winds and rains in Chang'an when he was slaughtered in his previous life, and for a while he thought of all kinds of things in that book, and his heart was suffocated, and his eyes were reddened.
Jun Xiaowu and Xue Yunhuan were frightened by his appearance.
Xue Yunhuan never realized that Jun Huailang could go so fast. While hurriedly following him, he panted and said, "Huailang, don't worry! I just asked, they searched all the wells and lakes nearby, and they also sent people to guard them. It will be life-threatening!"
Speaking, he hurriedly stabbed Jun Xiaowu with his elbow.
Jun Xiaowu hurriedly said: "Yes! Brother, don't worry, my sister will not run around, I guess she got lost, and she will be back in less than a quarter of an hour..."
Jun Huailang did not speak from the beginning to the end, and hurried all the way to the west corner gate of the Imperial Garden.
The west corner gate is very small, and the narrow palace road in front of the gate is already full of people. Due to the matter involving the prince and the eldest lady of the government, the emperor and empress who had just gone to rest in the apse were here, sitting on the carved circle chairs temporarily placed by the roadside, with palace maids behind them wearing canopies and feather fans.
When Jun Huailang came, he saw the emperor reprimanding Xue Yan. Concubine Shu was standing beside her, crying anxiously. His parents were also standing by the side at this time, and the worried expression could not be hidden, but they had to abide by the etiquette of monarchs and ministers, and dared not speak falsely.
"It's said to be the plum blossom forest left outside the West Corner Gate, but why can't anyone find anyone in a radius of tens of meters!"
Distantly, Jun Huailang saw Xue Yan kneeling on the path outside Xijiaomen.
Everyone was standing, but he was kneeling. The trail was paved with bluestone and covered with snow. The dazzling palace lanterns illuminated that piece as bright as day, and also stretched his shadow very long.
At this moment, Xue Yan raised his head and met Jun Huailang's gaze.
shiver.
It also made his mind clear for a moment.
He suddenly remembered that when Xue Yan touched the top of Jun Linghuan's hair a few days ago and told her that he was also her brother, his expression was not like this.
In this life, many things have changed. How could Xue Yan repeat the same mistakes and do the same thing in his previous life...
At this moment, he saw that Xue Yan glanced at him lightly, and lowered his eyes again.
Like a candle, it suddenly went out.
Beside him, Jun Xiaowu also panicked when he saw the scene of such a big fight. You Qi heard that Emperor Qing Ping said that no one could be found within a radius of several dozen feet, and he was immediately anxious.
Ignoring Jun Huailang, he took a few steps forward and even forgot to salute the Empress, so he grabbed Xue Yan's collar and lifted him up: "What are you doing? Where did you leave my sister? How come you can't find anyone until now?"
Xue Yan raised his eyes quietly and met his eyes.
The young eyes were no longer smiling at Jun Huailang, and the flames of anger and anxiety were beating.
Xue Yan didn't seem to see it.
In his eyes, it was Jun Huailang's eyes that he just raised his eyes.
He has always loved his sister, which Xue Yan knew long ago. He came in a hurry, his eyes were flustered and anxious, his eyes were red, and from a distance, Xue Yan could see the water in his eyes.
He would hate me. Xue Yan thought calmly in his heart. like everyone else.
Xue Yan felt a pain in his heart for no reason, as if a hand was clasping his heart, making him breathless. This feeling is very foreign. He never thought that he could face all the maliciousness of him calmly, but he could not bear the disgust of one person.
As if escaping, he hurriedly moved his gaze away from Jun Huailang. At the same time, he thought to himself, let him hate me, sooner or later.
As expected, he was grabbed by the neck of the man's younger brother and met his younger brother's angry eyes. The Qing Ping Emperor and the others were beside him, and they didn't rebuke Jun Xiaowu for his rudeness, they all indulged and acquiesced to him.
Xue Yan was silent, without words.
He seemed to be waiting, like a death row inmate waiting for the order to be executed, waiting for Jun Huailang to do something.
He closed his eyes.
At this moment, a hand reached out and held Jun Xiaowu's wrist.
The hand was translucent, and blue blood vessels could be vaguely seen on the back of the hand.
"...Brother?" Jun Xiaowu looked at him in disbelief.
After a moment of silence, he reluctantly spoke, and a word came out of his thin lips.
"Find Ling Huan first." His voice was a little hoarse. "Find Ling Huan and ask why."
This sentence seems to have exhausted all his strength. After speaking, before Jun Xiaowu could respond to him, he let go of his hand and turned around.
From beginning to end, Xue Yan didn't even look at him.
Then, Jun Huailang turned around and walked towards Emperor Qingping, knelt down, bent over, and saluted: "I am disobedient, please send your majesty to send more people to search for no one in every corner. , ask the reason, and then deal with it."
The Qing Ping Emperor paused for a while, sighed, and instructed: "Lingfu, according to the prince's words, go and find all the idle Jinwuwei, look around, and be sure to dig three feet in the ground, We also need to find Miss Jun's family."
Ling Fu quickly took orders to do it.
The Qing Ping Emperor looked at Jun Huailang again and said, "I know you two brothers are worried about your sister. Don't worry, I will not let Ling Huan have an accident in the palace."
Jun Huailang kowtowed again.
"Also ask Your Majesty to allow the ministers and guards to search together." He knelt on the ground and pleaded.
