This shadow guard is kinda nice

After all, Xiao Yichen and Ren Mingfeng's dinner of wine did not come to an agreement.After he came down to court that day, he made simple arrangements for the affairs of the palace, especially the child he brought back.

Zhao Tingzheng was arranged by him to go to Ye Huan's place, and Ye Huan was considered his half master back then, so he went to Pingyao this time, at least three months, Zhao Tingzheng is still young, just the age to learn.

There is no need for Zhao Tingzheng's past to exist anymore. Since he chose to follow him to Daliang, he has to be ready to entrust his life to him.

He doesn't raise a kid for no reason, when it's time for him to function, he puts him where he should be.

The current Zhao Tingzheng is too weak to be worth his use at all, but fortunately, he is now a blank piece of paper, free to be smeared by others, and Ye Huan is the one who writes.

During the few months he has been here, it would be best to put Zhao Tingzheng with Ye Huan. When he returns to Jinling again, he will see what Zhao Tingzheng will look like after this. If it does not meet his expectations, he will be the same. This useless child will be discarded.

The next day, the Imperial Physician from the Imperial Hospital came to Prince Xuan's Mansion, accompanied by dozens of imperial troops.

Xiao Yichen didn't care, whoever he liked would come, he accepted these forbidden soldiers calmly, and watched them load the medicinal materials brought by the imperial physician into the carriage.

"My lord, do you want to leave now?" A man who looked like a leader of the imperial army came over and said to Xiao Yichen.

Xiao Yichen raised his eyelids slightly, as if he hadn't woken up, he said lazily: "Let's go."

"Yes." He replied, turned around and was about to give the order to everyone to set off, Xiao Yichen stopped him.

Xiao Yichen smiled, "What's your name?"

The leader-like man clasped his fists and said: "Go back to the prince, my subordinate Lin Hai is the person in charge of this trip."

"Okay, I see."

Lin Hai nodded, turned around and went down the steps, and passed the order.

Mo Ran crossed the threshold, came to Xiao Yichen's side, and said in a low voice: "Master."

"En." Xiao Yichen responded, and stopped talking. The two stood silently, watching the movement of the forbidden army below.

After they packed up, Xiao Yichen got into the leading carriage. Mo Ran originally wanted to ride a horse in front, but Xiao Yichen asked him to get on the carriage, so he didn't refuse, got into the carriage, and sat beside Xiao Yichen.

With Lin Hai's sound of departure, the wheels of the car rolled forward, leaving a faint trace on the ground.Mo Ran took out some pastries from the small cabinet of the carriage, and he put them on a plate one by one on the small table.

Xiao Yichen was reading a book, he had nothing to do, so he leaned against the car window and fell asleep.

The carriage was very stable, and the steady Mo Ran almost fell asleep. When he was in a daze, he seemed to see the master leaning down, holding a piece of clothing in his hand, as if he was about to cover him.

He woke up in an instant, opened his eyes, and the eyes of the two met for a moment.

Xiao Yichen raised his eyebrows slightly, "Are you awake?"

Mo Ran sat up straight in embarrassment, and hummed.

Xiao Yichen sat back, threw the clothes aside casually, and picked up the book that was put on the table just now to read.

Mo Ran sat up straight, his eyes looked at a point in the void, but he no longer felt sleepy, he was secretly annoyed, why did he almost fall asleep?The master didn't sleep at the side, why did he sleep?

The more he thought about it, the tighter his frown became.

Xiao Yichen looked over the book, seeing Mo Ran's brows wrinkled into a Sichuan character, he lost interest in reading.

"What's the matter? A frowning look."

Mo Ran came back to his senses, looked sideways at Xiao Yichen, and said softly: "This subordinate is fine."

Xiao Yichen didn't speak, just stared at his face.

After a while, Mo Ran turned his head away as if he couldn't stand the gaze.

Xiao Yichen laughed, and pushed the cakes on the table to Mo Ran, "Eat something?"

Mo Ran took a piece of pastry casually, and as soon as he took it, his face wrinkled into a ball.

So sweet.

Looking at his appearance, Xiao Yichen couldn't help but smile even more happily.

Mo Ranmu looked at Zhang Jun's face, swallowed the sweet pastry, then poured himself a full cup of tea, and poured it down with his head raised.

After drinking a full cup of tea, the sweetness will dissipate.

Xiao Yichen pushed another plate of pastries over, "Do you still want to eat?"

Mo Ran's eyes widened, and he panicked, "Master, this subordinate...don't want it anymore."

The master knew that he didn't like sweets, but still made him happy like this.

Just as Xiao Yichen was about to say something, the carriage stopped, and the imperial guard who was driving the carriage said outside: "Young Master Chu, it's time, Captain Lin said that he should rest for a while before leaving."

Before setting off in the morning, Mo Ran specifically told them that they don't need to be called King Xuan when they go out, but they should be called Young Master Chu.

Xiao Yichen responded, and said: "Then let's take a break and leave later."

"it is good."

The imperial army parked the carriage in an alley where no one passed by. The group of them entered a restaurant and walked for more than half a day, but not far from Jinling, they stopped in a neighboring county town.

As soon as they appeared, they took up a small half of the restaurant. The Imperial Army and the Imperial Physician, at least twenty or so people, were not huge.

The appearance of such a group of people in a small county town that is not very wealthy naturally attracted the curious eyes of restaurant diners.

Xiao Yichen ignored all the scrutinizing gazes, and sat down calmly, while the rest of the people consciously divided into several groups and sat on the surrounding tables.

Only Xiao Yichen and Mo Ran were sitting at this table. After they had lunch, Xiao Yichen called Lin Hai over, and the three of them left the restaurant together and stood beside the parked carriage.

Xiao Yichen turned around, Lin Hai bowed and said, "Young Master Chu, what are your orders?"

"Captain Lin knows what we are going to do here, right?"

Lin Hai was a little puzzled, he didn't know why King Xuan asked such a question suddenly, after thinking for a while, he said, "I know, I'm going to Pingyao..."

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Yichen raised his hand to signal him to stop talking, Lin Hai shut his mouth instantly.

"Since Captain Lin knows about it, then I will speak directly."

Hearing this, Lin Hai straightened his face.

"The situation in Pingyao is urgent. If we go on like this, we may not be able to reach Pingyao for more than half a month. Therefore, Mo Ran and I will go first, and you will follow."

"This……"

Lin Hai showed a look of embarrassment, although His Royal Highness King Xuan was right, they were driving a carriage, carrying medicinal materials, there were many people, and they were all elderly imperial physicians, they couldn't get up fast at all.Waiting to go all the way to Pingyao, I am afraid that the day lily will be cold.

But before leaving, the commander told him that he should always pay attention to the movements of His Highness Prince Xuan during the journey, and if there is any change, he must report it immediately.

The commander said that this was His Majesty's intention, and he did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

"Xuan..." He stopped talking, remembering that Mo Ran asked them to call King Xuan as Chu Ling outside, "Young Master Chu, you are going alone, and my subordinates are afraid that if something goes wrong, no one can afford it."

After Xiao Yichen listened, his face didn't fluctuate at all, his chin was slightly raised, it was Mo Ran's direction.

"Isn't there him here?"

Lin Hai raised his head and glanced at the silent man standing beside King Xuan, "Here, it's just one person, and my subordinates still... don't worry about letting you go alone."

Xiao Yichen said lightly: "Don't worry, even without him, I can do it myself," he said, and suddenly smiled with his lips curled up, very playfully: "If you don't believe me, you can ask your family leader, he should, at last I can't be more clear." Lin Hai lowered his head even lower, with cold sweat dripping from his brow, the news that King Xuan kicked their commander off his horse a few days ago spread throughout the imperial army.

Although, there are repeated orders from above, no more private discussions on this matter are allowed.

Lin Hai pondered, "Why don't you wait until your subordinates ask what the commander means, and then..."

Xiao Yichen put away that bland appearance, his face darkened, and he said: "Why, my son's words are not comparable to your family's commander, are they?"

Lin Hai knew that he had said something wrong, and regretted it in his heart, so it was fine if he didn't listen to King Xuan's words, but didn't this prove that he was sent to monitor King Xuan?

Xiao Yichen sneered, but he ignored Lin Hai and walked away with a flick of his sleeves.

Lin Hai straightened up, watching the two figures, one black and one white, go further and further away, his lips were murmured, but he couldn't say a word, just watching the two disappear at the end of the long street.
