With the sound of silk and bamboo, the palace banquet began.

Many people sat down to toast, and the queen was pregnant and could not eat alcohol, and she had to drink less tea, so she replaced it with floral dew.

Xianshu wanted to go to Lin Langyu's side, but was stopped by the queen mother: "I will go there later, and I will see your sister Pingnan first. You two often played together when you were young."

Xianshu was a little impatient: "You said it was when you were a child."

At this time, Princess Qiuyun brought Princess Pingnan to the Empress Dowager and Empress. Everyone in the hall knew that he intended to betroth Princess Pingnan to the prince. Seeing this, they couldn't help looking at the empress.

Lin Langyu didn't want to look, he lowered his head and clenched his hands tightly on his knees.

Jia Min didn't seem to notice her son's abnormality, and she said with a smile: "Look, today the prince and the county master are all dressed in the color of sky, water and blue."

"Yes! What a perfect match!" Li Shangshu's wife echoed.

Lin Langyu's fingernails got stuck in the flesh of his palm, and at this moment he just wanted to take off this sky-shuibi robe!The young couple wear the same color, why do you still join in the fun?

Wen Quxing saw him biting his white mouth and blowing his lips, and quickly stretched out his hand to pat him on the back to comfort him, and said in a low voice: "It's not settled yet, you two should get well. You forgot There was such a big oolong about Kuangzhi last time, what if it is still an oolong this time?"

Lin Langyu laughed mockingly: "Oolong? He wrote letters to the county magistrate every day, and sent them back to Beijing quickly. I wrote letters to him every day, but I didn't see him reply one. Can this still be an oolong?"

Wen Quxing didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only sigh: "You guys should always talk peacefully."

Lin Langyu let go of his hand dejectedly, and put one hand on the lacquered wooden box in front of him, the blood oozing from his palm stained the red box black: "It's time to make a peaceful end..."

"You..." Wen Quxing didn't even bother to scold him for a moment, he took out a handkerchief from his bosom to wrap Lin Langyu's palm.

At this time, Duan Zizhen came over with a wine cup. He toasted Jia Min first, then sat beside Lin Langyu, and said in a low voice, "Aren't you going to serve soon?"

"What am I going to do? Are you disgusting people wearing this clothes?" Lin Langyu took a breath as if nothing had happened, her chest was sore from the hot wine.

Duan Zizhen looked at Wen Quxing in confusion: "This...what's wrong?"

Wen Quxing rolled his eyes: "You are a fool!"

The princess Qiuyun in front of him was still chattering endlessly, Xianshu only felt that it was very annoying, and he couldn't stop glancing at Lin Langyu's direction.

Princess Pingnan stood obediently beside her mother, her pretty face was flushed red, the clothes of the lord... But it was specially worn for herself?

"This kid doesn't talk much, but he has a very good heart." The queen mother pulled Xianshu and said, "Now that he is old enough, he can help his brother stabilize the country!"

"Your Highness is mighty!" Princess Qiuyun flattered quickly.

"How about...you talk to sister Pingnan?" The queen mother tugged at Xianshu, "You two were very good friends when you were young!"

Xianshu became impatient and anxious, but he still tried his best to maintain this decent smile: "I still have something to do, so I will catch up with my sister some other day."

After saying that, he bowed his hands and came towards Lin Langyu.

Although Lin Langyu didn't look directly at him, he kept glancing at the main seat from the corner of his eye, seeing Xianshu coming towards him, he panicked for no reason.

He was afraid to say something like one difference and two kindness from Xianshu's mouth. Even though he knew that Xianshu was going to get married, he selfishly felt that as long as Xianshu didn't say it, their relationship would still exist.

Seeing Xianshu coming towards this side, Lin Langyu quickly got up and was about to leave his seat and grab a classmate to drink and talk.

But he got up too fast, his eyes blurred again, his feet staggered, and just when he thought he was about to fall to the ground, he fell into a familiar embrace.

"Be careful." The man's voice was still the same, only his chest seemed wider.

"Thank you, my lord." Lin Langyu quickly stood firm and took a step back silently. He didn't dare to stay in his arms for a long time, fearing that he would be even more reluctant when the time came.

Listening to his unfamiliar tone, Xianshu's heart was filled with pain, and seeing the pale face of the person in front of him, his heart ached again: "Why...you have caught a cold and are still sick?"

"Thank you, my lord, for your concern. I'm much better now." Lin Langyu lowered her eyes and dared not look at him.

Xianshu sighed, and wanted to hug him into his arms, but the crowd didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so he raised his hand and put it down silently: "When you are sick, you should take good care of it."

The words changed in Lin Langyu's ears. He felt that Xianshu didn't want him to come here, and felt that his coming here would hinder his good deeds of Princess Pingnan!

yes!How can an old love compare to a new one?He can only be an eyesore here!

Lin Langyu stared with beautiful eyes: "Yes! I shouldn't have come, is the prince going to drive me away now?"

"What are you talking about? How could I..." Xianshu looked at Lin Langyu's empty chest, "Where's your jade?"

"I know that the prince likes that piece of jade very much." Lin Langyu reluctantly hooked the corner of his mouth, and put his hand on the wooden box on the table. When he was a child, Hou Xianshu liked him because he felt that he had a piece of jade in his mouth. Kodama is a rarity, now if I don't have that piece of Kodama, I think the relationship between them will be broken.

"I..." Xianshu didn't know what to say for a while, he glanced at Miss Li who was looking at Lin Langyu with admiration from the corner of his eye, and felt cold again.

That's right... Langyu's indifference to him is because of this woman.

For a moment, Xianshu's heart was filled with vinegar!He couldn't hold back the killing intent that rose from the bottom of his heart, regretted why he didn't wear a bag of red crests on his body, and directly poisoned the girl to death. How clean it was!

After running around the battlefield, his hands were stained with the blood of countless people. The murder on his body was heavy, and he didn't care about adding this extra life.Xianshu pondered in his heart.

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two of them was not right, did Duan Zi really want to interject, but Wen Quxing pulled him away, and Wen Quxing shook his head at him. He always felt that there must be some misunderstanding between the two of them. Enough.

"May I... take a step to speak?" Xianshu stretched out his hand to grab Lin Langyu's sleeve.

Lin Langyu pulled her sleeve out of his hand, then gave in and said, "My lord, please."

Seeing his empty hands, Xianshu was a little dazed, then he lifted his foot and went out, followed closely by Lin Langyu.

"What happened to these two people?" Duan Zizhen asked Wen Quxing in a low voice.

Wen Quxing's face was blank: "Don't ask, asking is love, which you and I don't deserve."

Duan Zizhen: "..."

Xianshu and Lin Langyu came to the imperial garden corridor one after the other, the wind hit Lin Langyu, and he coughed a few times.

Seeing this, Xianshu quickly took off his cloak and wanted to cover it for him, but Lin Langyu quickly took two steps back, her refusal was self-evident.

Xianshu's hands paused, but he still insisted on putting the cloak on Lin Langyu, not allowing him to refuse.

The familiar warmth enveloped her, and Lin Langyu felt a little hot in her eyes: "Thank you, my lord."

Xianshu wanted to ask him why he was so unfamiliar with him, but then he thought of Miss Li's smiling face like a peach blossom in the hall, and swallowed the words again.

Looking at Lin Langyu's pale face, he said distressedly: "This is not the place to talk, let's talk in another place."

Lin Langyu ridiculed in her heart, she still had to choose where to split her hands, the prince is really a person who loves poetry and painting.

Afterwards, Xianshu asked people to find a Nuan Pavilion, went in with Lin Langyu, and ordered: "Go far away and guard, and no one can be released without order."

Lianqiao got the order, and led the maids and eunuchs to circle around the Nuan Pavilion for three times.

In the pavilion, Lin Langyu felt that his frozen body felt much better, but he still didn't want to take off Xianshu's cloak. They have been similar for so many years, and it's not too much to rely on him for a cloak.

"You..." Xianshu didn't know what to say for a moment.

Lin Langyu lowered her eyes but didn't look at him, the lights in the pavilion were full of shadows, facing the few red plums outside the window was quite artistic.

The two were silent for a while, and finally Lin Langyu spoke first, and handed the wooden box he was holding on the couch to Xianshu: "The prince is getting married, and I have nothing to give to the prince. The son prince doesn't dislike it, and he will serve under his command, and our friendship for so many years will not be in vain."

Xianshu didn't answer, he must look at Lin Langyu's face, under the warm yellow candlelight made his pale expression look a little rosy: "What do you mean by not wasting our friendship for so many years?"

Lin Langyu's heart twisted: "Yes, we...how can there be any friendship at all, what does the prince want to say?"

He finally raised his head to look at Xianshu, his eyes were wet, and he wondered if it reflected the snow outside the window.

"I..." Xianshu felt a pain in his heart, he sneered, "Why bother to come, say what you want to say, why bother to rest on my head?"

Lin Langyu looked at him mockingly, what did he want to say?What can he say?I can't write a single reply to my letters every day, and I am the one who rushes to send letters back to Beijing to Princess Pingnan every day?Now this person still doesn't want to be a betrayer, and still wants to push this title to himself? !

That's all!Lin Langyu tried her best to ignore the dull pain in her chest, and smiled mockingly: "Yes! I want to say that I betrayed you, okay?"

When Xianshu heard this, his heart seemed to be pierced by a sharp arrow. Sure enough... he really fell in love with that Miss Li?

Now Xianshu is angry and cold-hearted, and for a while he also started talking nonsense with Lin Langyu: "That's good, after all... just treat it as a silly dream."

Lin Langyu lowered her eyelids again, her candle-lit long eyelashes trembled slightly, was it a dream?

A fishy sweetness rose from his throat, and he tried his best to suppress it.

Afterwards, Xian Shusong took out an exquisite nanmu box from his arms, and handed it to Lin Langyu: "This... Let it be counted as my wedding gift to you. I heard that you are with Li Shangshu's girl..."

Lin Langyu was taken aback for a moment, then took it with trembling hands: "Thank you, my lord."

The north wind howled outside, and the two people in the pavilion fell into silence again.

Lin Langyu looked at the wooden box in his hand. The box of nanmu inlaid with jewels and pinched with gold thread is really precious!He twitched the corner of his mouth, so it would be considered broken.

"Is there anything else you want to say, my lord?" Lin Langyu asked.

have!Where can it be?Xianshu stared at him bewilderedly, he wanted to ask why he was so quick to send people back to Beijing to send letters to him every day, why he refused to reply even one?He wanted to ask why he fell in love with someone else in the blink of an eye when he promised to never give up each other for the rest of his life?

He wanted to ask him why he was sick again, did he eat well and take medicine well when he was no longer alive?But at night, when the time comes, do you rest?

It's just that when the words came to his lips, he still couldn't ask. Isn't this scene the best answer now?There is nothing unreasonable about the words empathy and love.

"That's all." Xianshu smiled, then waved his sleeves and left.

The door of the warm pavilion was opened, and the wind and snow whizzed in and extinguished the candles. Lin Langyu looked at Xianshu's back, and tightened her grip on the wooden box.

Afterwards, he bowed to Xianshu's back. This was the first time he saluted Xianshu in such a manner since he was a child: "My lord, I wish the prince and concubine grow old forever!"

After all, the fishy sweetness in her throat couldn't be suppressed no matter what, Lin Langyu couldn't help coughing, a mouthful of blood spilled from her lips, dyeing her front crimson red.

His feet were a little unsteady, he leaned against the door frame, wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, and then vomited out another mouthful of blood.

Looking at Xianshu's back, he smiled, then his eyes darkened, and he fell behind.

Xianshu heard a muffled sound behind him, stopped in his footsteps, and looked back quickly.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Lin Langyu lying unconscious on the ground, he was startled, and didn't care too much: "Langyu!"

He hurriedly ran towards that person, hugged him in his arms, and shouted anxiously: "Come here! Call the imperial doctor!"

"Langyu, Langyu?" He called twice, Lin Langyu was completely unconscious at this time, he hugged her tightly in his arms, looking at the glaring blood on Lin Langyu's chest, his hands couldn't bear it. Trembling, he thought of Lin Langyu's childhood illness, the catastrophe that he almost didn't survive...
