Chapter 39 Frost Pavilion
Chapter 39 Frost Pavilion
"Young Lord, how is Danxiao Palace? Isn't it boring?" Jun Yuheng wandered back from the back mountain.
"How could it be boring where Mr. Yuheng is?" Lin Yi smiled.
Jun Yuheng was very satisfied with this answer, he glanced sideways at Abbot Jibei, who was eight feet away from him, and immediately made a bad face again.
Aunt Rong and Ye Tang came over and said to Ji Bei: "Master won't come for a long time, why not stay overnight."
Ji Bei shook his head: "My lord is no longer a child, it is useless for the poor monk to stay longer, so I will go back to the temple."
Xiao Huan was not close to Ji Bei, but still respected him, and asked Yetang to prepare a boat for Ji Bei and return to Qingning Mansion.
"Master Jibei has known you for a long time?" Lin Yi asked.
Xiao Huan and Lin Yi walked slowly along the corridor, and replied: "When I was young, I traveled around with loneliness and sorrow. He is half a mentor, but he has different ideas on many things, and that's the end of it."
Lin Yi was a little surprised. The king of Xiting lived in Danxiao Palace since he was a child. The magnificent and solemn rules of the palace are incomparable to all the princes, and he is in power at the same time. Will you wander around with a monk when you were young?
Xiao Huan seemed to see Lin Yi's doubts, and smiled and said: "I left Jinling very early, and I didn't have my father, brother and elders to guide me, so I benefited a lot from practicing with loneliness."
Lin Yi nodded ignorantly, vaguely feeling that there was a story behind it.
Jibei left Danxiao Palace, and Lord Yuheng felt comfortable physically and mentally. He returned to the palace and chatted nonsense with Lin Yitian.
Yetang was waiting in the hallway outside the hall, when Xiao Huan came over, she reported: "My lord, there is still no news about the folding flower arrow. The origin of this thing is vague and not eye-catching. I'm afraid we won't be able to find any clues for a while."
"Continue to search, and send more people to Jinling." Xiao Huan ordered.
In the last life, Lin Yi blocked the broken flower arrow for him, but he was unable to find out the source. If he didn't make preparations in advance to find out the person behind the scenes this time, it would inevitably happen again.
Aunt Rong came over, her face was dignified and beautiful, her eyes were a little worried, she said slowly: "The prince left as soon as he recovered, it was because of that young master?"
Xiao Huan nodded, not shying away: "This whole year, every day in Danxiao Palace, I have been thinking about him."
Aunt Rong was silent when she heard the words, suppressed the surprise in her heart, and said: "...don't blame aunt for overstepping the rules, if the suffering that the prince has suffered in this year is caused by this young prince, this fate may not be a good thing. The old man has watched the prince grow up, and all the hardships are hard to come by, so he only worries about the prince..."
Xiao Huan said indifferently: "Are you worried that I will follow the same path as my mother and concubine?"
Aunt Rong sighed.
Xiao Huan glanced at Rui He who was walking leisurely on the grass in the courtyard, and said: "Auntie, don't worry, you need to know that I was only confinement in the palace for a year to recuperate, Ziyao suffered a hundred times for me in the past. As for repeating the same mistakes ...if that’s the case, I’m willing to.”
Apart from them, there were only servants in Danxiao Palace, and everything seemed very quiet. Lin Yi thought, if they hadn't come, wouldn't it be too quiet for Xiao Huan to live here, and there were not many people talking around.
During dinner, Mr. Yuheng kept teasing Lin Yi: "Young Lord, the Lord has a fate with you in a previous life."
Lin Yi drank a cup of Ying from Danxiao Palace and laughed at me, satisfied, and said, "I think so too."
After thinking about it again, I asked a somewhat silly question: "Mr. Yuheng, do you believe in reincarnation?"
Jun Yuheng rolled his eyes and nodded: "Probably, why, the young master is interested in this?"
Lin Yi shook his head, nodded again, and said half-jokingly: "Speaking of which, I probably saved a person in my previous life, should I ask him for favor?"
Xiao Huan tightened his fingers holding the cup, and Jun Yuheng's heart moved, and he pushed the boat forward and asked: "Who is so lucky to be rescued by you?"
Lin Yi thought for a while, and then joked: "He and the prince are a family-the fourth prince, King Jingyang Xiao Fang."
Jun Yuheng was stunned for a moment, and seeing Xiao Huan's expression darkened, he hurriedly interrupted: "Hahahaha, young master, this is just a joke, you're just kidding the old man."
Lin Yi also smiled, rebirth after all sounds absurd, and he didn't intend to make anyone believe him.
"When did you meet him?" Xiao Huan frowned slightly. Lin Yi had nothing to do with Xiao Fang in his previous life, and they only met after rebirth.
Lin Yidao: "Before I went home a while ago, I met you by chance while staying in the same inn, and I met you when I got home."
Ye Tang stood beside him and said seriously: "Young Lord Hou still has a deeper relationship with our lord, we got to know each other a step later, but we got closer."
Aunt Rong laughed at her: "There's nothing comparable to this. Making friends depends on how they hit each other."
Seeing that Xiao Huan was distracted, Lin Yi asked, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Huan looked at him, but before he could speak, Lin Yi frowned suddenly, pulled out the lightsaber and rushed towards Xiao Huan at the same time, swung the sword backhand to block the arrows that broke through the window.
The arrow body of that arrow was pitch black and pointed, and the arrowhead was still poisoned. When it landed on the ground with a "jingling bell", it shone with a strange luster.
Ye Tang quickly got up and drew out the soft sword at his waist to protect Jun Yuheng and Aunt Rong, Lin Yi urged them to hide behind the hall.
Lin Yi just blocked Xiao Huan in a moment of impatience, forgetting that Xiao Huan's martial arts were even superior to his. At this moment, he looked back at Xiao Huan, only to find that his face was pale, there was no trace of blood on his lips, and he even looked reluctant to stand.
Yixiu Qi leaped into the sky outside the window, turned around and raised his sword to chop down several poisonous arrows, and landed on the ground, Lin Yi recognized his figure at a glance, and said, "Nie Yanli, what's going on?"
Nie Yanli, dressed in the dust, motioned him and Xiao Huan to retreat to the side, and hid against the wall for a while, saying: "The dead soldiers from southern Xinjiang, I chased them all the way, and I was so brave that I ran straight into Danxiao Palace!"
Nie Yanli saw Xiao Huan's face clearly by the moonlight and the candlelight shaking in the hall, quickly took out a porcelain bottle, took the elixir and handed it to Xiao Huan: "I'm late, my lord, forgive me."
Lin Yi asked anxiously: "What's wrong with you?"
Xiao Huan took the medicine and waved to him to indicate that he was fine.
Nie Yanli said helplessly: "This is an old problem, so you don't have to worry too much, Young Master."
Batch after batch of poisonous arrows were nailed to the pillars and walls in the hall, and then several black shadows rushed into the hall, heading straight for Xiao Huan, Lin Yi and Nie Yanli guarded him firmly.
This group of dead soldiers are treacherous, and they must guard against hidden arrows and vicious tricks. Fortunately, Lin Yi and Nie Yanli are both top-notch martial arts, and they did not suffer. Ye Guangjian and Yinchun Sword were stained with blood. The cold light soared.
The guards of Danxiao Palace rushed over upon hearing the sound, and joined forces inside and out. Half an hour later, the hall was a mess and bloody.
Lin Yi looked back at Xiao Huan in confusion, Xiao Huan's expression returned to calm, and he smiled at Lin Yi: "This time I really don't know martial arts."
Lin Yi stepped forward and grabbed his arm, frowned and asked, "Did you lie to me when you said you didn't know martial arts last time?"
Xiao Huan comforted him: "It's just a small problem."
Aunt Rong came over and saw that Xiao Huan's face was not looking very good, so she said: "My lord, please go to Shuang Pavilion to rest."
He said to Lin Yi again: "Thank you, Young Master, for taking care of me just now. I will leave this place to the subordinates of Xinggong, and please, Young Lord, rest early."
Xiao Huan did not insist, and left the hall with Aunt Rong.Lin Yi asked Nie Yanli: "What's going on with him?"
Nie Yanli wiped off the blood on the sword, put away the Yinchun sword, shook his head and said: "My lord has been hit by the southern Xinjiang spell, and sometimes he can't use martial arts. It's a bit similar to the situation of the little lord before, except that there is no resistance when it happens. It’s okay to take the medicine in time.”
Mr. Yuheng thought what he said was wrong, so he jumped out and said: "It's okay, every time I take the medicine, I still have to suffer from the headache for two hours, it's like you don't want money when you say it."
Nie Yanli shrugged her shoulders, the gems flashed in her ears, and she smiled helplessly: "Hasn't he gotten used to it a long time ago?"
The two talked to each other, and Lin Yi frowned as he listened.
Yetang put away the sword, looked at the scorched ground, and said angrily: "These guys, the good hall has been destroyed, bad luck!"
Yetang looked at Nie Yanli again: "Did they predict that the spell would happen today?"
Nie Yanli shook her head: "No, it was because they came that the spell was triggered, but I don't know the specific method."
"Isn't the prince at a disadvantage?" Ye Tang worried.
Nie Yanli said: "That's not true. They have limited manpower. They didn't succeed this time. The loss is not small. Besides, it is extremely difficult to trigger the spell. It is very difficult to do it again."
Only then did Yetang heave a sigh of relief.
"Nanjiang people have enmity with Xiao Huan?" Lin Yi asked.
"It's a long story... Maybe the prince will tell you someday." Ye Tang seemed inconvenient to say this.
Lin Yi went back to change his blood-stained clothes, but couldn't sleep no matter what, he got up and asked the palace servants, and then went to Shuangge.
Shuangge is a hexagonal pavilion in Danxiao Palace, the whole body is made of white jade, it looks like frost melted under the moonlight, and the whole pavilion is cold.
The doors and windows of Shuangge were closed tightly, and Aunt Rong was about to leave. When she saw Lin Yi and wanted to greet her, Lin Yi put her index finger on her lips, signaling her not to disturb Xiao Huan.
The two walked a little further away from Shuangge, and Lin Yi asked, "He has a headache now after taking the medicine?"
Aunt Rong glanced back and nodded, "About two hours...it's much better than before."
Lin Yi frowned: "What happened before?"
Aunt Rong looked at Lin Yi with quiet eyes, thought twice, and said briefly: "It's caused by the spell. The prince should have stayed in the palace for a few years and it will subside, but there are too many things to delay, so I had to take strong medicine." , was locked up in Shuangge for treatment for a year."
"Having been in pain for a whole year?" Lin Yi was a little incredulous.
"Whether it hurts or not, we don't know." Aunt Rong shook her head, then looked at Lin Yi and said, "You are a good boy, don't worry too much, and don't think too much, the prince has always done things properly."
Lin Yi didn't say anything, watched Aunt Rong leave, turned around and walked outside Shuang Pavilion.
There was a little boy guarding the door of Shuangge. Tired of standing, he sat by the threshold and looked at Lin Yi with round eyes.
Lin Yi simply squatted shoulder to shoulder with him at the door and guarded, like two small stone lions, one big and one small.
There was silence in the room, Lin Yi asked the boy in a low voice: "Is he asleep?"
The little boy nodded: "Don't be so careful, the lord fell asleep after taking the medicine, and couldn't hear us."
Lin Yi looked at him, and asked again: "Did you always guard here?"
"That's right." Xiaotong said, "Qingzhi and I took turns and stayed for a year."
"Will he still have a headache when he falls asleep?" Lin Yi asked.
"I guess it hurts. Once I went in, I saw the prince was still frowning when he was asleep, and his face was not very good-looking."
"He stayed in there for a year without going out?" Lin Yi simply asked the bottom line.
"I seldom come out. I drank a lot of wine every day for a year. Maybe I was drunk, and the time passed faster." Xiao Tong pondered and said.
Lin Yi stopped talking, and was locked up here for a whole year, either taking medicine or drinking, what kind of day is this, how can someone be so cruel to him.
He squatted until his leg became numb, so he switched to another leg, and then he leaned against the door and stood there waiting, two hours passed without knowing it, the moon was in the sky, and the Shuangge looked even more cold.
"You want to wait for the prince to come out?" the little boy asked.
Lin Yi nodded: "Wouldn't it be sad if he was in pain for two hours and no one was with him when he came out?"
The little boy hesitated for a moment, and said: "But the prince will be in a bad mood after taking the medicine. Do you want to come back later?"
Lin Yi raised his eyebrows, thinking about why he was in a bad mood, but the door of Shuangge had already opened. He leaned against the door and couldn't stand still. He swayed, and Xiao Huan pulled his arm to stabilize it.
There was a faint herbal smell on Xiao Huan's body. Lin Yi saw that his face turned pale and his expression was slightly cold.
But obviously his strength recovered, because Lin Yi was not allowed to resist, Xiao Huan directly dragged him away from Shuangge.
Lin Yi felt the indifference around him, which was different from usual to him, so he didn't dare to speak for a while.
Xiao Huan took him all the way back to the Yilan Palace, which was his bedroom. Ye Tang was guarding outside the palace. Seeing Xiao Huan's expression, he immediately sent away the palace servants, gave Lin Yi a self-seeking expression, and then hurriedly retreated. down.
The Yilan Hall fell silent in an instant, only Xiao Huan and Lin Yi remained, and Lin Yi was pulled into the hall by him with strides.
The door of the Gaoda Palace was closed, Xiao Huan turned around and pressed him on the door, lowered his head and leaned over, and asked coldly: "Lin Ziyao, you said you saved King Jingyang? How did you save him?"
Lin Yi was confused, Xiao Huan frowned slightly, his peach blossom eyes were no longer soft, and the bridge of his nose almost touched the tip of Lin Yi's nose.
Lin Yi's heart was in a mess, half made up and half genuine: "I blocked an arrow for him in my last life...you just think I'm joking..."
Xiao Huan shook his head slightly, and there seemed to be some sharp danger flashing across his brows and eyes: "What do you remember? How is he with you?"
Lin Yi was at a loss, but Xiao Huan's posture of forcing people to question was really irresistible, so he had to tell the truth: "I just remember this, if I block an arrow and die, what else can I do?"
Xiao Huan looked at him quietly for a moment, his handsome face was extremely cold: "Zi Yao, sometimes I really want to take you..."
Lin Yi had a bad premonition, and the next moment Xiao Huan bullied him and pressed him against the door, bowed his head and kissed his ear and neck, holding him firmly with one hand and sticking to himself.
His voice was hoarse: "Is it like this between him and you?"
Lin Yi's mind exploded, and the contact seemed to be on fire. He grabbed Xiao Huan's wrist to stop him, and shouted: "Xiao Huan!"
Xiao Huan froze for a moment, then woke up after a while, took a step back and looked at Lin Yi with a complicated expression.
Lin Yi was also confused. After a moment of silence, he replied inexplicably: "I am not like this with anyone..."
Xiao Huan felt a little ashamed on his pale face, and his eyes were bloodshot: "Zi Yao... I'm sorry."
Lin Yi recovered after a while, knowing that Xiao Huan's temperament changed drastically because of taking the medicine.
Couldn't the boy guarding the gate remind him earlier?
He raised his hand to touch Xiao Huan's forehead, and changed his relaxed tone: "Jinzhi, you are confused because of a headache, do you take this kind of joke seriously? What happened in the previous life..."
