Chapter 25: (1)

Chapter 25: (1)

    He dreamed that he sat alone at the banquet for a long time, and then planned to go out to breathe. As soon as he got up, a palace maid called him to the apse. The facial features of the palace maid were clearly Aunt Diancui, whom he was familiar with, but her expression was unfamiliar.

    Looking at him with cold disgust, just staring at him makes him uncomfortable.

      Jun Huailang pretended not to know, and waited for an order from Concubine Shu.

    "Take Linghuan out to get some air." She said lightly without raising her eyes.

      However, he saw Jun Linghuan following him obediently and walked out with him.

    …What’s the matter, how do you live with yourself like this?

    It wasn't until he walked out of the hall that Jun Linghuan raised his head.

    Fine. Those eyes were clean and clear, without the disgust and scrutiny that made Jun Huailang suffocate.

    "Thank you brother!" she laughed.

    This tone was a bit unfamiliar to Jun Huailang, and there was a vague prefix in front of the word "brother", which Jun Huailang couldn't understand.

    After that, he forcibly suppressed the weirdness in his heart and took his sister to play. My sister went to the Imperial Garden first, and then went to the Plum Blossom Forest to see the lights. The lamp in the middle of the plum blossom forest was the most beautiful. Jun Huailang couldn't help but went to pick it off for Jun Linghuan.

    In the dream, he was as light as a swallow, shuttled through the narrow path of the plum blossom forest, flew over the Taihu stone in the middle of the water, and took off the palace lantern.

    But when he came back, Jun Linghuan was gone.

    He was in a hurry, and immediately went to find Jun Linghuan. But immediately, he was held down by a group of people and knelt on the cold bluestone outside the imperial garden. The reprimands from around him made his ears buzz, but he was speechless.

    "What are you arresting me for, why don't you find someone first?" Jun Huailang said anxiously.

    But none of the eunuchs and guards around him paid any attention to him.

    Afterwards, he was dragged into the splendid hall. Everyone was standing, but he was kneeling.

    "Your Majesty, please send someone to find Ling Huan first!" He said anxiously when he saw the Qing Ping Emperor. "Ling Huan never walks around, I'm afraid something will happen!"

     But Emperor Qingping was furious at him as if he hadn't heard him, and that appearance made Jun Huailang feel particularly unfamiliar. All around, all the familiar people have different expressions, but the eyes looking at him are unfamiliar, disgusting and cold.

    Fortunately, Jun Linghuan was found soon after.

    Jun Huailang was worried and looked at her eagerly, but met Jun Linghuan's frightened and frightened eyes, as if she saw some monster.

    After even meeting Jun Huailang's eyes, Jun Linghuan trembled and hid in the arms of the man behind her.

    After that, everyone's accusing gazes and the emperor's order to punish him severely were all blurred in the humming of his brain. He looked at every familiar but terrifying face, chilling all over, wrapped in a suffocating pain.

    He looked around at a loss, eagerly looking for something, but couldn't find anything. Usually, his dreams wake up here.

    Jun Huailang suddenly recovered and looked at Xue Yan.

    Xue Yan didn't look at him, but the scene in front of him made Jun Huailang extremely familiar. It was clearly the same scene, but in a dream, he knelt in Xue Yan's place.

    Could it be that Jun Linghuan would run into the cold palace alone when Xue Yan went to fetch the palace lantern, and start to fear Xue Yan inexplicably? The experience in his dream is what happened to Xue Yan today?

    Then...there's clearly someone else doing something.

    So in the past life, Xue Yan and her sister, it was clearly because of that person that there was a misunderstanding.

    At this moment, Jin Wuwei had already received the emperor's order and stepped forward to pull Xue Yan up and take him out for torture.

    Jun Huailang couldn't care less, stepped forward in two steps, and blocked in front of Xue Yan.

    "Hold on," he said.

    Jin Wuwei didn't expect that His Royal Highness had the courage to resist the decree, or when the emperor was angry, he looked at each other for a while and stopped in place.

    Jun Huailang glanced at Xue Yan, and then met Xue Yan's raised eyes.

    The color was light, with a coolness and indifference as black as ink, and his eyes fell on the emperor in the hall. Although it wasn't aimed at Jun Huailang, Jun Huailang's back shivered from the cold.

    He suddenly thought that what Xue Yan was going through in his dream was what Xue Yan was going through at this time.

    Jun Huailang moved, blocking Xue Yan's eyes, standing between him and Emperor Qing Ping, blocking him behind.

    "Please calm down your anger." Jun Huailang said. "Ling Huan was frightened, and he has not yet stated the reason. Please ask Your Majesty to make a decision after a thorough investigation."

    The queen glanced at the angry emperor, and then at the friend who was wiping tears beside her, and reminded Jun Huailang with some reproach: "Huailang, don't lie."

    The Qing Ping Emperor suppressed his anger and asked: "Don't I have a clear inspection? The whole palace is full, Ling Huan is the only one who is afraid of him, and he took him out and lost it, I still need to investigate what?"

    Jun Huailang took a deep breath and replied calmly: "It is true that the Fifth Highness and the two brothers and sisters have never had a festival, so the minister thinks this is a bit strange."

    Fortunately, he was an official for several years in his previous life, and he was able to answer fluently in the Golden Temple, and was able to withstand the anger of Emperor Qingping at this time.

    The Qing Ping Emperor frowned, but it was not easy to attack. After a while, he reluctantly said, "Then go ask."

    Jun Huailang got up.

    When he turned and walked back, he met Xue Yan's eyes again. That expression seemed to have never recovered, and there were emotions that Jun Huailang could not see clearly, like a turbulent vortex under the sea.

     Those eyes only looked at him fixedly.

    Jun Huailang just glanced at him before turning away. He walked straight to Jun Xiaowu and reached out to take Jun Linghuan in his arms.

    "Ling Huan told brother, what happened just now?" Jun Huailang knelt on one knee on the ground, took Jun Linghuan in his arms, followed her back with one hand, and asked softly .

    He deliberately turned Jun Linghuan's back to Xue Yan, and his expression at this time fell into Xue Yan's eyes.

    Jun Linghuan rubbed his eyes, choked for a long time, and then whispered, "You want to eat people."

    Jun Huailang was taken aback for a moment: "Who are you eating?"

    Jun Linghuan hid in his arms, and then stammered: "They said... Brother Fifth Prince, he wants to eat people. So he took Huan'er to hide where he couldn't find it. Wherever they went... but they all left, only Huan'er stayed there."

    Speaking of this, Jun Linghuan's voice was filled with crying again, and she choked up.

    Jun Huailang was taken aback for a moment, then she understood what she meant. Hearing the little girl whimpering like a milk cat, he hurriedly leaned over and held her in his arms again.

    Besides the heartache, Jun Huailang was a little scared by the truth he found.

    In the past life, this incident happened, and Xue Yan also received the "deserved" punishment because of Jun Linghuan's identification. From then on, Jun Linghuan would definitely avoid him like a snake. After all, a six-year-old girl was the best thing to scare.

    ...So, Xue Yan's words in the book have an explanation.

    It turned out that Jun Linghuan was deceived by the "they" she called, and thus made a grudge against the young Xue Yan? And in the long years that followed, Jun Linghuan was humiliated by Xue Yan inexplicably, and it was also because of these people's reckless jokes?

    Jun Huailang was terrified, his lips were tightly pursed, and there was a coldness in his eyes.

    The people in the hall also heard what Jun Linghuan said. For a time, everyone looked different, and even the emperor's anger froze on their faces.

    Jun Xiaowu reacted and suddenly became furious. He ignored the etiquette of the ruler and ministers, and asked, "Ling Huan, who is the one who scare you with nonsense? Tell the second brother, the second brother will beat him up so that he can't get out of bed for three days!"

    Jun Huailang quickly raised his eyes to stop him, lest the furious Jun Xiaowu scare his sister again.

    Jun Linghuan's choked voice became a little heavier. Jun Xiaowu squatted down quickly, followed her hair with one hand, slowed down his voice, and asked, "Ling Huan, tell second brother, who said it?"

    Jun Linghuan sobbed and thought for a while.

     "Brother Enze," she said. "And the second prince brother. ... The rest, Ling Huan doesn't recognize it."

    Jun Huailang raised his head and looked at Emperor Qingping in the hall.

    The Qing Ping Emperor naturally heard Jun Linghuan's words. He never thought that this matter was also related to his other princes, and when he heard what the second prince said about "cannibalism", he became even more embarrassed, and said angrily: "If no one is here, hurry up and bring the two of them to me. Come in front!"

    Lingfu hurriedly received the order, ran out quickly, and instructed the little **** to find the person.

    In a short while, the two were brought.

    Jun Huailang saw that Xue Yunsu was still calm, but if you looked closely, you could see that the calm was all fake. And Jun Enze, who was behind him, shrank his shoulders long ago, and his legs were trembling when he walked.

    I raised a white-eyed wolf. Jun Huailang thought coldly.

    When the two of them came in, they knelt down in front of Emperor Qingping and heard Emperor Qingping ask: "Second child, is it you who brought the eldest lady of the Jun family to the cold palace?"

    Xue Yunsu was angry at this moment.

    Who knew bringing a little girl could be such a hassle? I can't walk fast, and I'm not brave enough to carry it with me, it's obviously a burden.

    He was just showing off to a few noble families that he dared to take them to that haunted cold palace. Several noble families were very excited, so he also came forward and led them away. And this little girl was led all the way by them, and after a few words of intimidation, she was too frightened to leave.

    But sending her back at this time is too much trouble. What's more, he took this child away just to cause trouble for Xue Yan, where is there any reason to send it back?

    I had to take it with me.

    When they arrived at the cold palace, several people were even more excited because of the gloomy atmosphere inside, so someone suggested to take a look inside the palace. But this little girl is timid and slow, and everyone who follows her is a drag, so no one wants to take her.

    Xue Yunsu was naturally unwilling. He simply made an excuse and placed Jun Linghuan in a corner building at will. In order to prevent her from running around, Xue Yunsu also frightened her, saying that if she left casually, she would be caught by Xue Yan who turned into a wolf. It was late at night, and it was time for him to eat people.

    Who would have thought that when a few people started playing, they all forgot about that little burden. By the time they remembered that there was another Jun Linghuan, the story of Jun Linghuan's disappearance had already spread throughout the palace.

    Fortunately, they were a noisy group of people, and no one noticed that they brought an extra little girl. What's more, the Leng Palace was unattended with a radius of more than ten meters, and no one knew that they had brought Jun Linghuan to the Leng Palace.

    So, when Xue Yunsu heard the news of Jun Linghuan's disappearance, the first thing that came to her mind was to warn those who went with him.

    "You should be tight-lipped," he said. "None of us have been to the Cold Palace today, remember?"

      She was frightened there, and there was no danger to her life. Instead, it allowed her to learn a lesson and have pity on that evil star in the future.

    And that group of young masters had already made trouble, and no one dared to take responsibility. Now the leading second prince has kept them silent, so naturally they didn't say anything.

    However, that little girl learned to sue by herself?

    Hearing the emperor's questioning, Xue Yunsu paused, then calmly said: "Father, I have never been to the cold palace, and I have not seen Sister Ling Huan after today's banquet."

    Speaking of this, he looked around in a feigned puzzlement and asked, "What happened? Did Sister Ling Huan admit the wrong person?"

    His acting skills are quite poor, and at first glance he can tell that he is lying. Emperor Qingping showed a displeased look, glanced at Jun Enze beside him, and asked, "The second prince really hasn't been to the cold palace today?"

    Although Jun Enze was reminded by Xue Yunsu long ago, he was not so bold when he came to the emperor. He knelt there, his legs kept shaking, and he just kept shaking his head, not knowing.

    The Qing Ping Emperor naturally would not fail to see through the deceitful words of this child. On the contrary, the two lied to him unanimously, which made him even more annoyed.

      "Not only do you not know what's wrong, but you want to hide it?"

    At this moment, Zhang Guiren, who was sitting at the bottom, couldn't sit still.

      Seeing that her son had caused such a big disaster, and the emperor did not believe him, Zhang Guiren got up quickly and hurriedly knelt down in front of Emperor Qingping.

    "Your Majesty, Su'er has always been a good boy and will never lie to you! Please also ask your Majesty to investigate!"

    The Qing Ping Emperor angrily said: "He is acting like this, isn't he lying to me?"

    Zhang Guiren hurriedly said: "This child is timid and kind-hearted, he must have been frightened and disrespected in front of the emperor! Besides, the young lady of Yongning's public family was lost by the fifth prince. , how can you blame Su'er..."

    At this moment, a clear voice interrupted her.

    "Niangniang." Jun Huailang said. "If the Second Highness made a mistake, you lied to His Majesty on his behalf, but it is a crime of deceiving the king."

    Zhang Guiren turned around and saw Jun Huailang looking at him coldly.

    "How can you speak here!" Zhang Guiren said angrily. "Huangkou child, what do you know!"

    Jun Huailang just looked at her.

    His dark and deep eyes have always been cold and soft, like a hidden fairy outside the world. But at this moment, these eyes are extremely sharp, and under the questioning of the other party, the momentum overwhelms the other party, and there is no fear.

    Jun Huailang looked at the people in the hall who were talking nonsense with their eyes open, and a raging anger ignited in his heart.

    Do they know fear? Then when you do something like this, why don't you know you're afraid?

    Throwing such a small **** the abandoned turret, without the slightest bit of fear, blamed Xue Yan with confidence. How come when it comes time for them to admit what they've done, they start to get scared?

    In the past life, the sins Jun Linghuan suffered because of them were thousands of times more terrifying than this.

    The more angry, the clearer Jun Huailang's thoughts became. His eyes swept over these people, and there was a sarcastic smile in his eyes.

    “Second Highness, before the next quibble, you might as well tidy up your clothes first, so as not to show your troubles,” he said.

    Xue Yunsu was stunned for a moment, then looked down at his robe.

    Jun Huailang continued: "The corner tower of Lenggong is in disrepair, the stairs are thick with dust, and the mahogany handrails are decayed. The stairs are extremely narrow, when we went to find Ling Huan, even if The martial arts are as powerful as Xiaowu, and there are shards of dead wood on your body, not to mention you, Second Highness."

      a breakage. The lights were dim at night, and it was still hard to see outside, but the apse of Yongle Palace was brightly lit, and the traces of his body immediately disappeared.

    Xue Yunsu panicked immediately, Jun Enze was so frightened that he fell to the ground and sobbed softly.

    "This... this doesn't mean anything! Maybe Su'er is naughty and bumped outside, I don't know..." Zhang Guiren still didn't give up.

    "Shut up!" Emperor Qing Ping interrupted her.

    Emperor Qing Ping only felt that his face was completely lost, and his anger was also raised.

    Zhang Guiren didn't dare to speak.

    The Qing Ping Emperor took a few breaths and then ordered: "Take the second prince down, think about it behind closed doors for a month, and copy the Taizu's family instructions a hundred times. Even his mother is not allowed to visit! This kid from the Jun family is not allowed to be the prince's companion any more, so he will be sent back to his biological father for rearing!

      "

    Needles could be heard throughout the apse, and everyone was silent. When Zhang Guiren heard this, he immediately fainted.

    Jun Huailang was a little stunned when he heard his imperial decree.

    When Xue Yan was the culprit just now, it was clear that he was going to be beaten and kneel in the hall. And when it was the second prince's turn, he just grounded his feet lightly and copied his ancestors' instructions.

    These aristocrats were all punished severely. Not to mention Jun Enze, who was about to be expelled from the capital, only that those sons of aristocratic families were directly punished by their father and brother. Not only did the male family lose face in the court, but he also had to get a good punishment when he returned home.

    In the end, punishing them heavily is also because they "brought bad" the second prince. The second prince, Emperor Qingping, was still his own flesh and blood. Although they are princes and ministers on the surface, they are still father and son in their bones.

    And Xue Yan…

      Tang still has to kneel, just kneel until dawn tomorrow."

    The Emperor Qing Ping continued.

    After he finished cooking the crowd, he saw Xue Yan kneeling like a nail in the hall.

    Everyone was fined, but he seemed innocent. This made Emperor Qingping feel uncomfortable, as if he had wronged him and taught him to kneel here for a while.

    Then Qingping Emperor spoke lightly, put a charge on him, and found a step for himself.

    Anyway, he was fined a lot more, and it wasn't just once or twice this time.

    —

    When Jun Enze left the apse of Yongle Palace, the queen was leaving Duke Yongning to talk to Mrs. Shen. The second prince was surrounded by people and left, he was alone, and there was not even a follower next to him.

    Jun Enze's legs are soft and his mind is in chaos.

    The place where his father distributes is Lingnan. I heard that there is a miasma there, which can poison good people to death. He was reluctant to go in life and death, and his father was reluctant to let him suffer, so he finally let him stay in Yongning's mansion after begging Duke Yongning.

    Although it is dependent on others, it is better to go to Lingnan. What's more, he is the second prince's companion. He was a popular man beside the prince. He was indescribably expensive, and no one dared to look down on him. Among the noble families, he was also outstanding.

    But now, it's all gone.

    The emperor was angered, and the second prince could not save him. To the second prince, it was just a crime of playing tricks on a noble girl, but to him, it was a serious crime of instigating the prince.

    Jun Enze knows that this is the end of the matter, and there is no room for turning around. Before long, he will travel thousands of miles to Lingnan, which is full of miasma.

    He had no intention of returning to the banquet, so he had to sit down in an inconspicuous corner by the Taiye Pool. In front of him, the Taiye Pond covered with a layer of crushed ice was sparkling, and the lanterns by the pool were flickering. On the opposite side of the lake, there are many palaces, towers, green tiles and flying scorpions, carved beams and painted buildings, and the brilliant lights are reflected in the lake, like a fairyland of Yaochi.

    In the past, he could still be a member of this place, but now, he was thrown back to the mortal world by the fairyland, like a dream.

    At this moment, a faint sigh came from behind him.

    "Fourth Highness?" Jun Enze turned around in surprise and saw the fourth prince, Xue Yunhong, standing behind him.

      Fang Cai, it was his sharp eyes, who saw Jun Linghuan there.

    "If the fifth brother loses this child, I'm afraid the father will blame him again."

    Xue Yunsu was surprised: "Xue Yan brought her out? How do you know?"

    "It seems that I saw it, maybe I saw it wrong." Xue Yunhong smiled and shook his head. "If the second brother is curious, you can ask. I ate too much wine and I have a headache right now, so I will leave first."

    Jun Enze was a little puzzled.

    At that time, the Fourth Highness went back to rest, why did he wake up from the wine?

    Seeing his suspicious look on his face, Xue Yunhong smiled and said lightly: "I was resting just now, and when I heard the noise, I came out to have a look. I was a little worried when I heard that you and the second brother had an accident. , come to see you."

    Jun Enze showed a grateful expression, and at the same time burst into tears: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern. It's just that from now on, there will be no chance to meet again."

    "How come there is no chance to meet?" Xue Yunhong asked in surprise.

    Jun Enze said: "Lingnan is so far away, how can I have a chance to come back again."

    Xue Yunhong smiled and shook his head.

    "As long as the second emperor is reluctant to part with you, what does the distance have to do with it?" he said.

    Jun Enze was taken aback: "You mean..."

    Xue Yunhong said gently: "You have been by the side of the second emperor since you were young, who can compare with such friendship? When you are about to leave, find an excuse to meet the second brother, and just say goodbye, The emperor will not be wrong. At that time, you cry with him, the second emperor is so soft-hearted, he will definitely remember you and will not let you suffer too long in Lingnan."

    Jun Enze's expression gradually turned happy.

    Yes! How could he forget! I can't control my own destiny, but the nobles in the palace are different!

    Xue Yunhong could not help but laugh when he heard him, and exhorted: "At that time, you will only say that you are reluctant to part with the second emperor, and Xue Yan hurt you. The second emperor hates Xue so much. Yan, I will definitely decide for you and find a way to get you back."

    Jun Enze hurriedly wrote down every word and sentence, and thanked Xue Yunhong for his point.

    "Where is the point." Xue Yunhong smiled. "But I'm reluctant to let you go like this, so I came up with an idea for you."

    The second prince has a deep friendship with him, and the fourth prince is also reluctant to bear himself! Jun Enze suddenly fluttered.

    Sure enough, all his years of drilling are useful.

     "Now that you have figured it out, let's go back to the banquet." Xue Yunhong smiled and nodded. "It's windy by the lake, you wear thin clothes, don't freeze."

    Jun Enze naturally had no doubts about him, and said goodbye.

    Since there is a chance to come back, then he need not worry. In the aristocratic family, he still has a few good friends, and he still needs to go back to contact them for friendship.

    Xue Yunhong smiled and watched him leave.

    "The wise take their tricks, the fools take their strength." He chuckled and muttered to himself. "The ancients did not deceive me."

      He asked Jun Enze to ask the second prince, but it was just to use the last bit of the waste to intensify the contradiction between the second prince and Xue Yan.

    Xue Yunhong held his hand and looked at the brightly lit lake. The scales of lights reflected in his eyes, but they did not show any temperature.

    Whoever he wants to clean up, never has to do it himself. Taking advantage of his own strength was taught to him by his mother-in-law, the first lesson of being a king.

    Like that year, he and Xue Yan were born on the front and back legs. At that time, his mother concubine was just an unknown and unfavored concubine, while Xue Yan's mother, Concubine Rong, was the favored concubine of Yanguan's harem. At that time, Empress Zhonggong had been childless for many years, and everyone was staring at Concubine Rong's belly. His mother concubine could borrow multiple powers to make Concubine Rong die violently and Xue Yan fell out of favor, so that the eyes that originally belonged to Xue Yan fell on on him.

    Now, he also has this ability. With the help of those brainless idiots, he can make Xue Yan fall out of favor and never turn over.

    After all, his mother and concubine said that those who have old enemies need to be killed to save themselves the trouble.

    It's just that those idiots are useless, like low-quality iron swords, the blades are rolled up before they kill people.

    Xue Yunhong sighed in disappointment as he looked at the lights in the lake.

    —

    In the middle of the east and west six palaces of the imperial city, a seven-story pagoda was built. There is a magnificent hall in front of the pagoda for Buddhist shrines. Incense burns day and night before the shrine, and there are still monks who are vigilant in the side hall at night, knocking on wooden fish, one after another, echoing in the night.

    It was late at night, and there was a sound of clockwork in the distance.

    Xue Yan knelt in the middle of the Buddhist hall, looking up at the golden Buddha statue several feet high. The Buddha's eyes were kind and compassionate, his eyes lowered slightly, and he looked down in front of him. Around him, there are 108 statues of Arhats, each with different expressions, eyes wide open, standing quietly in the flickering candlelight.

    Xue Yan raised his head and was able to meet the eyes of the Buddha statue.

    He watched silently for a while, then suddenly let out an airy laugh.

    "Stupid or not." He muttered to himself, his voice so soft that only he could hear it. "What is worth for someone like me?"

    He admitted that he learned the crude way today because he lost his mind for a while and did irrational things. This has never happened before, because in the past, his life has always been the same, and he has never met someone like Jun Huailang.

    However, it's a slap in the face. Dongchang was waiting for the day when he really became a backwater dog, and he was also waiting for an opportunity to make Dongchang fully trust him.

    His reason told him that this was the opportunity.

    He just needs to wait for everyone to deal with him. The means of disposal are usually nothing new, and he has never had the habit of explaining, just waiting for the punishment to be over, relying on the smell of blood on his body to attract the wolves in the East Factory.

    But this time is different.

    When Jun Linghuan disappeared, he was in a panic, his mind was empty, and only Jun Huailang remained.

      But just at this time, Concubine Shu sent someone to find Jun Linghuan to go back to eat snacks, and she happened to bump into him and detained him on the spot.

     Immediately afterwards, there were all the people who hurriedly came to ask for guilt, the impenetrable Jin Wuwei, and the furious Qingping Emperor.

    This scene is not unfamiliar to Xue Yan, it can even be said to be used to it.

    But the difference this time is that it didn't take long for him to see Jun Huailang who came anxiously.

    At that time, Xue Yan's chest seemed to be grasped, making him unable to breathe.

    He wanted to explain for the first time.

    This is something he has never experienced since he was a child. Everyone just wanted to punish him, no one wanted to listen to his explanation, and he had no interest in wasting words. But this time, he wanted to tell Jun Huailang that he didn't mean it.

    However, Xue Yan did not say anything.

    Whether he knew it or not, it was his omission that made Jun Huailang's sister disappear. Seeing Jun Huailang's anxious expression, he just wanted to let the other party blame him, scold him, or find a way to punish him so as to offset the sadness he brought him.

    But Jun Huailang...still not.

    Innocent, this word is a little funny to him.

    Xue Yan always thought that things like innocence were nothing to him. It doesn't matter whether he did it or not, what matters is whether the final result has any use value for him.

    It's just that he never knew that it is human nature to go to the light. He didn't care about his innocence before, just because of people he didn't care about before.

    Dongchang received the news that Xue Yan was wrongly punished, and sent Xiao Weizi to him immediately. Although there was a discrepancy with the intelligence, Xue Yan was not beaten, but was punished for kneeling in the Buddhist temple, but Xiao Weizi still passed on Wu Shunhai's words, saying that he felt bad for him to be punished for no reason, and Eunuch Wu would come to meet him at a chosen day.

    Wu Shunhai asked, "What's wrong?"

    Xiao Weizi pondered for a long time, but could not speak.

    "I always feel that something is not right, my eyes are a little empty, and it seems to be thinking about something." He said. "It's like half the soul was hooked away by the demon."

    Wu Shunhai laughed out loud upon hearing this.

    "I think the rabbit is in a hurry and is thinking about how to bite." He said carelessly. "Is your soul taken away by the demon? Read more books, just relying on nonsense, you shouldn't let Dongchang be laughed at, saying that these fans are blind and blind."

    Xiao Weizi scratched the back of his head, didn't dare to refute Eunuch Wu's words, answered a few words repeatedly, and then backed out.

    But... he still felt a little mean.

    But I think about it, how can a demon be so bold and dare to seduce people in front of the Buddha.

    —

    When Jun Huailang returned to Mingluan Palace, it was late at night. Jun Linghuan was frightened and was taken to bed early, but Jun Huailang couldn't sleep, and even felt a little uneasy.

    He didn't expect that the discord between Jun Linghuan and Xue Yan, which seemed confusing in the previous life, was actually caused by this.

    As Xue Yan lived a life, he could feel the situation, what kind of situation Xue Yan experienced every day. Therefore, he once gave him some warmth, and then broke Jun Linghuan with his own hands, which became the object of his revenge in the previous life.

    Jun Huailang felt that he should hate him. Jun Linghuan was innocent from beginning to end, but suffered such an innocent disaster. No matter who the culprit is, Xue Yan did everything.

    However, Jun Huailang couldn't hate it.

    Because of this experience, Jun Huailang can understand how unbearable the pain of isolation is, like a cold blunt knife, repeatedly cutting blood dripping wounds.

    Because of this, that moment of warmth is especially precious. Losing is much more painful than never getting it. After gaining warmth, the person who once gave it warmth avoids and fears himself with a look of horror, which is more unacceptable than the malice from others.

    Jun Huailang knows that, compared to Xue Yan, what he should hate is the group of people who forced Xue Yan to this point and made fun of Jun Linghuan, let her torture Xue Yan, and forced him two A person who has a grudge.

    Xue Yan was a fire pit, and it was the people who pushed Jun Linghuan into it.

    However, behind that group of people is what a huge group of people. In today's matter, it was the second prince who framed Jun Linghuan on the bright side, but in fact, behind him were the silent condoning people in the palace, and the indiscriminate Qing Ping Emperor.

    Even today, Xue Yan has separated from Jun Linghuan's disappearance, didn't Qing Ping find a reason to punish him?

    Jun Huailang looked up at the night outside.

    Besides the flickering lights, there is a darkness like ink.

    At this moment, Fuyi pushed the door and entered.

    "Eldest young master?" Fuyi took a lantern and glanced inside cautiously.

    "Huh?" Jun Huailang looked at him.

    Fuyi laughed when she saw him, then opened the door and instructed the maids behind her to come in: "The servant saw that the lights in your room were not turned off, so I thought you were not asleep. Today There wasn’t much food at the palace banquet, so the servants saw that the small kitchen in the Empress’s Palace made supper for Empress, so I asked you to make one for you.”

    Several palace maids came in floating with jade plates in their hands, and soon filled the small table in front of Jun Huailang.

    Seven or eight kinds of dim sum snacks, the amount is not much, but the excellence is exquisite, they are all in line with the taste of Jun Huailang. Jun Huailang watched them prepare the dishes. After watching for a while, he came back to his senses. He really felt a little empty in his stomach.

    For a banquet in the palace, there are many nobles to be entertained, and the dishes need to be exquisite. There is only one imperial dining room, which is often too busy. The dishes of the Palace Banquet are usually in short supply in terms of weight, only enough to fill the stomach.

    Jun Huailang suddenly asked, "Is the Buddhist hall far from here?"

    Fuyi was stunned for a while, he didn't know it, and looked at the maids behind him.

    One of them said: "His Royal Highness Hui Shizi, it's not far. Exit the gate of the East Sixth Palace and walk another incense stick and you'll be there."

    Jun Huailang asked again: "Is there someone guarding?"

    The palace maid covered her lips and smiled and said, "Everyone can go to the Buddhist hall, except for the ordinary guards guarding it, there are only monks."

    Jun Huailang hummed and said nothing.

    Just now, when he saw those snacks, he suddenly thought of Xue Yan.

    He certainly didn't eat much at the banquet tonight.
