The Story of Lang Yuan①

? After returning from the prison, Bai Chen sat there motionless in the imperial study room until a sheet of snow-white fox fur was presented in front of him.

"I report to the emperor that the ashes of the fox demon have been scattered in the river. In a few days, the poison of the people all over the country will be cured."

"Understood, let's go down."

Holding the fox fur that he had just processed, Bai Chen walked to the Yonghe Palace in a daze, wrapped in the quilt that the man had used, and savored the pain of losing a loved one alone.Clinging to the pillow desperately, trying not to let the tears flow out, but it was in vain. Even if the brocade was torn apart with fingers, the pain in his heart could not be relieved. The seven-foot man, ninety-five years old, was crying Be like a child.

Suddenly, Bai Chen's hand caught an envelope, on which was written the words "Ah Chen's Dear Father", the handwriting was crooked, the only person in this palace who could write such ugly characters was probably that fox.

A Chen, you personally ordered me to be killed. I believe you will remember this point for the rest of your life.

I originally lived a peaceful life in the small villages around the imperial city, but because of a momentary curiosity, I strayed into the deep palace and fell into your gentle swamp, unable to extricate myself.You once asked me to stay in the palace and told me that you would protect me well, but you never cared about my life and death, and only let me fend for myself in this deep palace.You have so many wives and concubines who dote on your concubine, you have to take care of all the forces in the court, you have to share the rain and dew in the harem, and you can't favor any concubine, but what I want is a complete love, helpless, I just want Can compete with that group of women.

I am a thousand-year-old snow fox, and the fox clan experiences a thousand-year catastrophe. If I haven’t killed anything for a thousand years, then I can survive the catastrophe safely, but for you, I don’t know how much blood was on my hands, and I don’t know the nine ways What would Tianlei feel like?I aborted the child in Concubine Shu's stomach with Concubine Lan's hand, and poisoned Concubine Lan with Concubine Shu's hand, so that her child would be born with deformities, and Lady Lan herself died in the cold palace due to drug addiction Li; Mei Shiling's child has nothing to do with me, what I sent was really just a bowl of anti-fetal medicine.

Yuan Yingshan poisoned herself and put the blame on me. The poison was a strange poison unique to Beiyi. Later, Beiyi paid tribute to the skeletons of mermaids, and those bones were covered with the strange poison of Beiyi. The Ministry of Rites is in charge of all diplomatic affairs, so I suspected that the Yuan family and Beiyi had colluded with each other while leaving the palace. Sure enough, the evidence of their secret collusion was under the pillow, so the death of the two old bastards of the Yuan family is not counted. I am wronged, although I no longer have a trace of love for you, but I am not a person who does not know right from wrong, so there is no need to poison your people.

In the end, I, Li Shang, have never begged you for anything, but now, I beg you to send Bai Luoqi away to Xiao Shu'er, he is not suitable to stay in this palace.

There was still a faint fragrance on the paper, just like the faint fragrance of medicine on that person's body.That's right, I pushed him step by step to death, so how can I ask him to be as pure as ever.

"He knew he was going to die a long time ago, but he didn't expect that you ordered him to be killed." Bai Chen raised his head and looked at the source of the voice. It turned out to be Bai Luoqi, that child came here not just when, "You Although you are my father, I don't regard you as my father. You are merciless everywhere, but you are very ruthless and hurt him deeply. Such a ruthless person is not worthy of being my father. From today on, I will no longer My surname is Bai, and I will follow his wishes and go to the grassland to find Xiao Shu'er, if you don't agree, just kill me. Sending you this letter is the last thing I will do for you."

Not long after Li Shang's death, the poison of the people was cured, and the hearts of the people in the court were stabilized. Only one person was worried, and that was old general He Lan. Xuan Qing once said that Li Shang was Bai Chen's doom, And there is no way to solve it, the subjugation of the country is inevitable, so the old man has always regarded Li Shang as a secret weapon of rebellion, but now that he is dead, the imperial power of the Xiaxi Dynasty is still as solid as gold, which is really strange.

"General Qi, for some reason, the emperor, regardless of the objections of the officials, suddenly stopped the court and ordered the concubine De to supervise the country, but he himself bowed to the Buddha... Moreover, it is said that the candidate for the crown prince has already been decided."

"Oh? Bai Chen's child has no heirs except for a deformed child. How was the candidate for the crown prince established? Could it be that the eldest prince was really appointed as the crown prince? What a joke!"

In the Buddhist hall of the palace, there is a bright yellow figure kneeling, holding a wooden fish, piously chanting Amitabha Buddha over and over again, I am willing to spend the rest of my life praying, praying that the next life will continue to be entangled with you, even if you curse us forever At the end of the day, I want to be with you forever and ever. From now on, you will never get rid of me again!

After ten years of Chengyu, Mi Zixia left with his crown on his crown, Young General Xiao left with him, and General He Lan rebelled, invincible all the way, and went straight to Huanglong.The flames of war ignited the curtains in the Buddhist hall, and Bai Chen fell asleep peacefully with a snow-white fox fur in his arms. At the same time, in a cave at the foot of Tianshan Mountain, a beauty with slashed shoulders and a water snake waist slowly woke up, with crescent moon eyebrows and Danfeng eyes. , straight nose and thin lips, pointed chin, looking forward to brilliance, turning all living beings upside down.

The dragon chair that Xiao had wanted for many years was finally placed in front of him, but he was already an octogenarian, dying, but so what, my son is an upright man, the world will finally fall into the hands of my Helan family.Just when General Helan was triumphant, someone held out a "Decree of the First Emperor", "I know that I have little talent and learning, and I have no way to govern the country, so I followed the example of Yao and Shun, and placed Zen in the eldest son of Helan's family. May the new emperor Caring for the world, loving the people like a child, fulfilling my unfulfilled wish... I respect this."

The deep courtyard provokes the moon, and the yellow flowers provoke the west wind.As soon as the autumn wind passed and the flowers were killed, the Palace of Yonghe was still full of luxuriant scenery, and the other side was still burning with excitement, as if waiting for a love that would never end well.The portrait of that person has long been taken down by the new emperor and shelved. A hundred years later, I don’t know how many people remember that there once lived a seductive concubine who charmed the king and killed the heir, but was killed by the person she loves the most. After falling for a thousand years of Taoism, he earned his lover a lifetime of green lamps, ancient Buddhas, and alchemy.

(End of the first part)

What about HE?Don't worry, there's an extra episode!There is a second part too!

☆, extra episode ([-])

The sound of clappers in the palace did not resound, Bai Chen knew that the Helan family's army had already invaded the imperial city, he smiled, the beauty is gone, why bother with this world of mortals, the eldest son of the Helan family has a talent , and don't have to worry about the common people in this world.Since there is nothing to love in life, why not go to death calmly.Bai Chen hugged the fox fur tightly in his arms, he doesn't want to be rich and honored in his next life, he just wants to be with you forever.Farewell, this world, farewell, this world of mortals.

Bai Chen was awakened by a smell of medicine. This smell is too familiar. That person has such a smell all year round. It's faint, unlike those women in the harem. , this smell is so strong that it wakes me up, it doesn't smell like that person's smell, what's going on?

Struggling to open his eyes, what came into view was the dilapidated beams with dusty curtains hanging on them. Bai Chen propped himself up and looked around. There was thick dust all around him. There were a few little beggars, and in the gray, sat a slender figure, dressed in white, who was decocting medicine, and the strong smell of medicine was coming out of the medicine jar.

The person who decocted the medicine heard the rustling sound behind him, put down the chopsticks in his hand, and turned his head. Looking back this time, Bai Chen felt that there were thousands of flowers blooming one after another, so who else could that person be if not Li Shang?

"Yo, wake up, get up and help me with work when you wake up, don't lie on the ground and be lazy, hurry up!"

The joy of regaining what was lost dazzled Bai Chen's head, he didn't hear what Li Shang said for a while, but just stared at him blankly, motionless.Seeing that the man did not move, Li Shang frowned, came to him, and looked down at him, "Listen, Bai, you are not the emperor now, and the world has changed hands. I am the one to save you." I left you, you will be my drug boy from now on, and you will serve me on both sides from now on, in order to repay my life-saving grace, understand?"

At this moment, Bai Chen's mind has cleared up quite a bit. After the ecstasy, he felt extremely shocked. Li Shang died a long time ago, and he personally ordered the execution. How could he...

Seeing that Bai Chen was still immersed in his own thoughts, Li Shang was so angry that he raised his foot and kicked the heartless man, "Hey! Did you hear that?" Hun'er, who was wandering in the sky, was called back, "No, I didn't hear it, please say it again."

Li Shang was so angry when he heard the words, sure enough, the country is easy to change and the nature is hard to change, this guy will never learn how to respect others.Li Shang rolled his eyes, didn't say a word, turned around and returned to the place where the medicine was decocted just now, wrapped the handle of the medicine pot with a piece of bright yellow brocade, poured the medicine soup into an enamel bowl, and brought it to the lying In front of the little beggar in the ashes, he was fed spoon by spoon and drank. Bai Chen recognized that the brocade material was torn from the dragon robe on his body.

Bai Chen got up from the ground. As a result of being lethargic and not eating for many days, when he stood up, he felt dizzy. If it wasn't for Bai Chen's sharp eyesight and hands that quickly grabbed the table next to him, he might have to sit back on the ground again.Dragging his weak body, he walked behind Li Shang step by step. Just as he was about to open his mouth to say something, Li Shang handed over the broken enamel bowl in his hand, "Here, go wash the dishes."

"..."

"Oh, I forgot, you can't... God, why did you save you in the first place? You can't even wash the dishes. What use do I need you?"

"Warming the bed in the middle of the night?" Bai Chen asked hoarsely.

Li Shang didn't respond at all, and silently squatted aside to wash the dishes, but Bai Chen could clearly see that the little thing's ears were red and purple.

Li Shang put the cleaned bowl on the table, leaving a few silver bumps on the little beggar, then said "Let's go" to Bai Chen, and walked out regardless of whether Bai Chen followed Of course, Bai Chen followed Li Shang's buttocks out of that dilapidated hut. Looking back, he realized that the place they were staying just now was a dilapidated temple, and the little beggars inside were probably temporary residents. Poor people here.

Li Shang brought Bai Chen to the market, found a noodle stall and sat down, "Boss, have a bowl of beef noodles and a bowl of plain noodles."

The owner of the noodle stall is a fat man in his 30s. It's not lunch time yet, so the man dozed off with his head propped up. When Li Shang yelled, he frightened the sleepy man away and stared at him immediately. Eyes, sat up straight, stunned for a while in confusion, finally realized that this was a business visit, so Dian Dianer ran over, uncovered the pot, set firewood to boil water, swung his thick arms round Yes, roll out the noodles hard, and when the noodles are rolled out, the water will boil.After a while, bursts of fragrance wafted into Bai Chen's nose. He didn't feel it on the way just now, but now that he was hooked by this fragrance, Bai Chen immediately felt his stomach was on fire, and his whole body was hungry for bursts. Dizzy, I just hope that the fat man will quickly serve the noodles.Sprinkle a handful of shallots, drizzle with a drop of sesame oil, and then cut up two taels of beef, and the beef noodles are ready.When the noodles were served, Bai Chen didn't care about etiquette, grabbed the chopsticks and stuffed them into his mouth, only to be scalded severely.Li Shang looked at his bowl of noodles and frowned, not because he felt sorry for Bai Chen's tongue, but because he felt annoyed, "Brother Zhang, I have never seen you so generous when I came here alone, why did this guy go to your stall? The last time you sat down, you didn’t even know the difference between four, five, and six, and you actually cut up so much beef for him? Besides, didn’t I just say that you only need one bowl of beef noodles, how did you make two bowls?”

"Look at you, aren't you careful again?" The fat man wiped the sweat from his brow with an oily rag, "Look at you, you are neatly dressed, your face is flushed, and you are not at all except a little thinner. He looks like a person who has suffered, but this little brother is different. Look at him, although the material of the clothes is excellent, but they are torn to pieces, his complexion is sallow, and his face is ashamed. It’s been a lot of suffering, why don’t I give him more meat to nourish his body?”

Hearing this, Li Shang couldn't help but turn black, didn't he just tore the clothes...

Seeing Li Shang's complexion changed, the fat man thought he was mad at him for being biased, so he smiled naively, turned around and cut another plate of beef, and brought it to the table where Li Shang was sitting, "Eat it, Doctor Li, you saved my wife and my wife." My son's life is my Zhang San's reincarnated parents, if I lose Zhang San, no one can lose you."

Li Shang had no intention of blaming Zhang San at first, and felt even more embarrassed to see him treat him like this. You know, Zhang San's family is very poor, with a paralyzed and blind old mother and four children to support. It all depends on him and his wife to set up a stall to make money. Now his wife is confinement at home, and he is already struggling to support the family by himself. How can he let others spend money to treat himself to such a big plate of beef?Just when he was about to say no, he saw that guy Bai Chen picked up a piece of meat with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth.Li Shang gritted his teeth and watched Bai Chen eating happily with a dark face, grabbed his bowl, picked out all the meat in the bowl, handed back a bowl of plain noodles, and by the way, took the plate of beef that Zhang San gave him. He also dragged it to his side, making it clear that he would not give it to Bai Chen.Helpless, Bai Chen had no choice but to feel aggrieved, watching Li Shang feasting on his own bowl of plain noodles while watching Li Shang feasting.

After eating the noodles, Li Shang looked around and saw that no one was looking around, so he started to attack Bai Chen. Bai Chen thought that the little thing had been abstinent for too long, so he couldn't help it, and wanted to stop him with embarrassment. , "Baby, don't be like this in the public, let's find a place where no one is doing this..."

"What are you thinking about?" Before Bai Chen could finish speaking, Li Shang slapped him on the chest, "Hurry up and hand over all the valuables on your body. I left all the money to the little beggars on the mountain. What will happen now?" I have no money to pay for meals."

The corners of Bai Chen's mouth twitched, feeling that he wanted money from me.Stretching his hand into his bosom, he took out a piece of blood jade and handed it to Li Shang. After Li Shang took the jade, he asked Zhang San to wrap the beef on the plate for himself, and then dragged Bai Chen away.During the period, without anyone noticing, he stuffed the jade pendant that Bai Chen was wearing into Zhang San's money box. Bai Chen secretly clicked his tongue when he saw it, when did this little thing learn the skill of a thief?

☆, Extra Story ([-])

? Li Shang took Bai Chen to see patients everywhere, and most of them prescribed prescriptions but did not charge money, but instead charged the patients some food. Foodie...

In the evening, Li Shang brought Bai Chen to a medicine hall, casually threw him a dustpan full of medicinal herbs, then lit the oil lamp on his own, picked up a medical book and read it. Shang didn't intend to talk to him, so he just stood there with a dustpan at a loss, what exactly does this fox want him to do?

"Why are you still standing? Hurry up and cut up the herbs in your hand."

Bai Chen still stood still, you know, he has been pampered since he was a child, and he has never done any work, let alone cutting herbs, even making him a cup of tea would be embarrassing for him, Li Shang finally remembered this He was already an emperor, he rolled his eyes, stepped forward and snatched the medicine from Bai Chen's hand, "What do you want!"

"Come here, learn a little bit, you have to work if you want to eat in the future, I don't want to keep a rice bucket!"

Bai Chen walked behind Li Shang, carefully watched Li Shang cut the herbs according to his words, and hugged him involuntarily after watching, sniffing the faint fragrance of the man's hair, before he savored the lost and recovered medicine carefully. For Joy, she felt numbness in both arms, looked down, and found that a silver needle was stuck in her hand, and the person in her arms was blushing, and said viciously, "Rogue!"

Slapping away Bai Chen's arm holding him, Li Shang angrily went back to his room, closed the door, put his back against the door, and showed a meaningful smile.

There was a knock on the door behind him. Li Shang was very clear about what the people outside wanted to say. For the past three years, his soul had been attached to that snow-white fox fur. He knew that since his death, Bai Chen He hugged his belongings and never left his body for a moment, knowing that the man prayed in front of the Buddha every day in order to eliminate the curse he said before he died, praying that he could meet him again in the next life.He said that he didn't love himself, but who would believe that he would give up the imperial power for a person he didn't love, and the ancient Buddha was green every day.Three years ago, he personally ordered to end his own life. He once hated and complained, but after a long time, he will understand that he must die, otherwise the people in the world will die. Perhaps, this is his catastrophe Well, there is no five thunderbolts, but being executed by a loved one is heartbreaking...

"Li Shang, I know you are listening. I don't dare to ask you to forgive me. I just ask you to let me stay by your side, watch you, and take care of you. From the moment I was born, I was named Prince, later he ascended to the throne smoothly. I didn’t know that love is based on an equal relationship since I was a child, and I didn’t even know that I fell in love with you. The three thousand beauties in the harem are just me balancing all parties. The pawn of power, no one has ever walked into my heart, only you, who has no background and no value, but it really made me fall. In the palace, I am used to seeing ladies who follow the rules, and suddenly I see you. Seeing that you are such a real person, you can act like a baby, play tricks and have a small temper. How can I not love you? You are jealous like those concubines, and even killed others for favor. I am really frustrated. I often ask the air in the dead of night, where is that kind and simple Li Shang, but I ignore the fact that it is me step by step. I killed the former you. I looked for your shadow in everyone. I thought Yuan Yingshan was generous, humble, and pure and kind, so I transferred all my love for you to her and pampered her in every possible way. I didn't expect her to be a snake and a scorpion, and she killed you in the end. You once asked me if I loved you, and now I tell you, I love you, I love you every moment, I don't care what you have done, and I don't care about you Whether you are a demon or a ghost now, as long as you are Li Shang, you are my Bai Chen's lover, in this life, you will never try to get rid of me."

Li Shang sneered at the door, "It's nice to say, but I'm no longer the stupid Li Shang I was back then, and I can soften my heart just by being coaxed by you... What's more, I already have my own heart, so you don't have to waste your efforts gone."

Bai Chen frowned when he heard the words, he didn't say a word, the little thing has learned to lie, don't lie to me, Li Shang, if you really have something to belong to, why would you blush when I touch you?

Li Shang heard that Bai Chen didn't speak, so he put his ear on the crack of the door, but his small movements could not escape Bai Chen's eyes, Bai Chen held back his breath and pretended that there was no one there. Immediately he lost his temper.

"Damn, can't you really leave?"

She opened the door violently, but was pulled into a familiar embrace the moment the door opened, "Little thing, are you finally willing to come out? What I said is true, I love you, and I don't expect you to be able to Forgive me, just let me stay by your side, I am very satisfied, you can fulfill me, okay?"

Li Shang raised his hand to pinch his sore nose, buried his face on Bai Chen's chest, and thought angrily, nonsense, if I let you stay by my side, I would have to be captured by you sooner or later. I haven't finished reporting Qiu Laozi yet!

"Okay, then you will follow me, on the saddle and on the horse, serving tea and water. I want to see how long you, the pampered former emperor, can endure?"

"Is there any wages?"

"Think beautifully!"

"Then..." Bai Chen blew into Li Shang's ear, "Where's the bed warmer?"

"……roll!"

Breaking away from Bai Chen's embrace, Li Shang turned around and entered the room, and angrily slammed the door shut, leaving Bai Chen alone outside the door, smiling so hard that his teeth could not see his eyes, and when he looked down, he saw something on his chest. A small piece of blood, needless to say, it must be that Li Shang broke his nose just now.Hastily kicked the door open, wanted to see if Li Shang was okay, but didn't want to, but saw that Li Shang had just taken off his clothes, now, the person with the nosebleed was replaced by Bai Chen.
