?There are still two days before the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor, and these few days the palace is very quiet and peaceful, but it is a little deserted.This desolate air comes from Shangyang Hall. In the past, as long as you pass nearby, there will be a scent of tea, refreshing your heart and lungs.Now the person who made the tea has left, the fragrance of tea is gone, from this area to the Dongqin Hall is so lonely that it makes people sigh.

But Nuo Xu, who was far outside the palace, tasted his Yunnan Pu'er comfortably and enjoyed his short-term peace and freedom.These few days can be regarded as the most comfortable days he has lived since he was 14 years old.There are no secrets, no disputes, just him and Mo Huichuan sitting in Wangwang's mansion, making tea, tasting tea, and chatting about some homework. Occasionally, when Mo Huichuan is not around, Peng Ziyao will sit beside him, two poor people who are both in the world People, one sentence after another, talk warmly.

This kind of life can only last for a few days, let's wait for the future.

It's a pity that these few days are really too short, Yong Ting came first this morning, and finally he left without saying a word with his eyes red.Nuo Xu finally told Yong Ting everything about him, and he didn't know whether Yong Ting felt pity for him, hated him, or grieved for everything that had happened over the years, but no matter what he decided, he would not will blame him.

Before Nuo Xu had time to lament his brotherhood with Yong Ting, General Peng came.The two talked secretly for two hours in the dormitory, and Nuo Xu sent him away with a solemn face.

And Mo Huichuan looked at the back of him sending General Peng away, only seeing sadness.

After General Peng left for a moment, Yao Ziyu came.

Yao Ziyu and Zhao Tianbao had left the palace a long time ago, but Zhao Tianbao's mood was very unstable in the first few days, so Yao Ziyu had to stay by his side all the time to prevent him from doing any more stupid things.But Yao Ziyu never forgot that Nuo Xu asked him to come to the palace, so today he rushed over as soon as he stabilized Zhao Tianbao, who knew that Nuo Xu was in a bad mood.

However, when Nuo Xu saw Yao Ziyu, his tense heart relaxed a little bit.If there is one thing that can slightly make up for his heinous crimes, as long as it is within his ability, he is willing to do it.

He ordered Mo Huichuan to greet Yao Ziyu to the hall and serve him a cup of hot tea.As soon as Yao Ziyu drank, his frowning brows eased a little, and he sighed: "This is the smell of Xuanlou."

Nuo Xu stared at the tea in his hand, a bitterness spread from the bottom of his heart.For him, this is not the taste of Xuan Lou, but the taste of Fan Shaoqian. He misses the glorious time before the age of 14.

He came back to his senses for a while, and said, "You don't have to worry about Song Leyu."

"The Holy One is willing to let him go?" Yao Ziyu's eyes had a little hope, if Zhao Tianbao knew, he would definitely be willing to have a good meal.

"Well, it's just that he will inevitably be punished. He will come out in a few days. You just need to take good care of him."

"What punishment! Wang Wang, Le Yu is innocent."

Nuo Xu didn't know how to explain this dispute in the court to Yao Ziyu, and felt that he had harmed a kind person needlessly. He just said: "If Le Yu doesn't care about money and other things, don't worry about him; as for The pain of flesh and blood is like hitting a hundred boards with a stick, just take good care of it."

"But," Yao Ziyu understood that the punishment was already light, but he believed from the bottom of his heart that Song Leyu was innocent. No matter what the punishment was, he couldn't help but feel aggrieved for Song Leyu in his heart. When he was about to fight for something, he was interrupted by Nuo Xu up.

"Le Yu expected this calamity long ago. Since there is no danger of his life, you don't need to worry too much." Nuo Xu added new tea to Yao Ziyu, then changed the subject and said, "Young Master Yao, I want to ask you something .”

Yao Ziyu was just a commoner, and used to be a servant in a brothel, but now he was flattered by this noble prince and said "Prince" on the right, and he also had a good impression of him.

It's rare for a prince without airs!

He said repeatedly: "Master Wang, if you have anything to do, you can just order it, and if you can do something small, you must do it, and if you can do it, you must do it."

Nuo Xu asked directly: "How is your relationship with Min Xuan?"

"I want to treat him well, but he doesn't accept it." Yao Ziyu smiled wryly.

"My younger brother has a withdrawn personality. He has always been alone since he was a child. It was rare that he was willing to talk to Young Master Yao, so I hope that Young Master Yao can come to the palace to accompany him, so that he will not be so lonely." Nuo Xu continued. : "But this king understands that once Le Yu comes back, you will leave the capital, and this king will not force Mr. Yao, but Mr. Yao is willing to stay with Minxuan before leaving."

This request was not an embarrassment for Yao Ziyu, but he knew that Min Xuan didn't like him, so he could only ask, "Where's Pang Zhan?"

Nuo Xu was a little surprised, he didn't expect that Yao Ziyu didn't know about such a big event.

"Pang Zhan is dead." Nuo Xu paused before saying, "He took an arrow for Min Xuan and died."

What!Yao Ziyu thought of Min Xuan's same look that day, and remembered that the Buddhist beads he gave Pang Zhan turned out to be his mother's relic, and his heart couldn't help but tighten, feeling sorry for Pang Zhan and also for Min Xuan.

"When did this happen?"

"About eight days ago."

This sentence Ba Tian hit Yao Ziyu's head like a thunderbolt. He used to know that Min Xuan was withdrawn and no one took it to heart. Later he found out that Pang Zhan had a place in his heart, but it turned out that Pang Zhan Ba ​​Tian Pang Zhan died before, and when he pleaded for Song Leyu that night, Pang Zhan died.

Yao Ziyu didn't dare to think about how Minxuan was going through these days, but he felt panicked, so he blurted out: "I want to go to the palace to see him now."

After listening, Nuo Xu immediately waved his hand and said to Mo Huichuan behind him: "Huichuan, give him my token." Then he said to Yao Ziyu: "You can go in with my token The relationship between Wang and Minxuan is not good, so don't mention this king."

Yao Ziyu nodded, and as soon as he got Nuoxu's token, he hurriedly left Wangwang's mansion.He went back to his residence first, told Zhao Tianbao about Song Leyu, and after reassuring him, he put a piece of wrapped cloth in his chest, and then ran to the palace.

With Nuo Xu's token, he entered the palace smoothly.He walked quickly to Huairen Hall, hearing something sensitively about Min Xuan and Pang Zhan along the way.It turned out that yesterday was Pang Zhan's first seven, but Min Xuan still didn't take a look at him. Everyone was saying how cold-blooded Min Xuan was, but he knew it was not. He was sure that Min Xuan was not really cold-blooded and ruthless.

But he didn't want to argue with them, he just wanted to go to Min Xuan's side and comfort this sad person.

Regardless of obstacles on the road, he came all the way to the dormitory, but was stopped by an old eunuch, "The fifth prince is resting, young master, please go back."

Yao Ziyu shouted: "Fifth Prince, it's me, Yao Ziyu!"

"My lord," the eunuch frowned, and was interrupted by a voice from inside.

"come in."

As soon as Yao Ziyu entered, he saw Min Xuan was wearing a coat, sitting against the bed post, and his face was very pale, this appearance made his heart feel even more flustered.

The old eunuch closed the door cleverly, and only the two of them were left in the huge dormitory.

"You came here for Song Leyu?" Min Xuan chuckled, but his tone was very weak, "I forgot to send someone to tell you, don't worry, he will be fine."

"No, I..." Yao Ziyu scratched his head and asked with concern, "Are you sick?"

"It's just a minor illness. If it's okay, you can go." Although the words were to chase someone away, Min Xuan kept staring at Yao Ziyu.

However, after waiting for a long time, Yao Ziyu still didn't leave or speak, and Min Xuan didn't say anything to chase him away, and the two of them just kept facing each other in silence.

After a long time, Yao Ziyu burst out a sentence: "Fifth Prince, you still need heart medicine for your heart disease. Don't be sad about Pang Zhan's matter."

Min Xuan's complexion changed suddenly, and for some reason, blood flushed on his pale face. When he was so angry that he wanted Yao Ziyu to get out, the truth that he deliberately buried seemed to burst out, causing his head to twitch violently. It hurts.

In the end, he could only say with trembling lips: "Pang Zhan can do anything, he is just going out to do errands for the prince, to do errands."

"You, you!" Yao Ziyu opened his eyes wide, and couldn't believe that Min Xuan had lied to him in exchange for a peace of mind, but Yao Ziyu knew that this would not make him feel better, and one day he would still think about it, Then he regretted it all his life, so he could only tear up the lie cruelly: "He is dead, Pang Zhan blocked an arrow for you, and he died!"

These words twisted Min Xuan's facial features together, making it difficult to breathe.He patted his chest, and coughed violently again, Yao Ziyu's words mercilessly hacked into his mind, destroying all his rationality.

Yao Ziyu didn't expect his reaction, and hurriedly poured him a glass of water, but he pushed him away fiercely.The water overflowed onto Yao Ziyu's hands, making him shiver from the cold.

But the most chilling thing was what Min Xuan yelled angrily.

"He is dead, he is dead when he is dead, what is he, do you want me to collect the body for him after he is dead? Is he worthy? He doesn't weigh his own identity, and neither do you, come over and let me know He is dead, what right do you have to walk in front of me and make irresponsible remarks to me! Yao Ziyu, get out, get out immediately!" He seemed to use all his life's strength to yell out this series of words, so that His chest rose and fell violently.

"Is he unworthy? Who else is as good as Pang Zhan around you?" Yao Ziyu yelled back.

Min Xuan laughed loudly a few times, and retorted: "Who can't match! Does he have the great talent of the third brother? Does he have the heroic appearance of the second brother on the battlefield? Does he have the purity and kindness of Ming Luo? Even Song Leyu is better than him." His family has a lot of money..." But the more he spoke, the lower his voice became, and finally he fell silent, and he didn't say any more.

In fact, no one can match him.The only one who could pass, Min Xuan thought about it, turned out to be Yao Ziyu who stood in front of him and told him not to be sad.

He lowered his head, his eyes were red, but he stubbornly refused to let the tears flow.

After a while, he said softly: "I don't want him to die for me, why did he still die for me?"

Yao Ziyu sighed, ever since he saw through Min Xuan's loneliness, he couldn't bear to blame him for everything, now seeing him with his head bowed, guilt-ridden, made him hate what he said just now.

He took out the wrapped cloth from his chest, and when he opened it, there were three Buddhist beads inside. He handed it to Min Xuan and said, "They are the spirits in the sky, and they don't want you to be too sad."

Min Xuan stared blankly at the Buddhist bead in Yao Ziyu's hand, bit his lower lip, and felt infinite sorrow in his heart.He clearly knew that Pang Zhan was kind to him, but he didn't do anything for him, so now he wants to repeat the same mistakes?

He said: "These three beads, since you found them back, you can accept them, and if you ask me for something in the future, just bring one of them."

Yao Ziyu was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook his head and said, "No, I, I can't afford it."

"You can accept it for him. I want to take a rest. You can go."

He let Yao Ziyu go, but Yao Ziyu stood uncomfortably.He thought of Nuo Xu's entrustment to him, and Zhao Tianbao and Song Leyu. After weighing the two, he said, "Fifth Prince, I won't leave. I will stay by your side to accompany you in the future. We will be friends for life." .”

He originally planned to go back to Yangzhou with Zhao Tianbao, but he knew that Zhao Tianbao and Song Leyu were with each other, but without Pang Zhan, Minxuan would be alone in the future.He has always wanted to help the fifth prince, but now that he knows that he is not heartless, he doesn't want him to be alone.

"Yao Ziyu, you are so stupid." Min Xuan shook his head, wanting to object to Yao Ziyu's words, but in the end he just remembered that after thinking about the matter, he treated Pang Zhan well, and now he has no one to be afraid of, so he nodded and said : "After I move out of the palace, you can come to me again."

Yao Ziyu stepped forward, handed the water to Min Xuan, Min Xuan took a sip, and said: "You go, you leave through the Nangong Gate, there are fewer people."

He didn't know that Yao Ziyu had Nuoxu's token, so he thought he came in secretly.

As soon as he exited and closed the door, he heard a loud cracking sound from inside, and another "bang" sound of a huge object falling.He was about to push the door open, only to feel the door in front of him shake, and then through the door, he heard the slight sound of crying.

In the end, he didn't push the door open, but stood in front of it, waiting for the people inside to vent his sadness.

After a while, the inside became quiet, and he left Huairen Hall and headed for the Nangong Gate.As soon as he arrived at the Nangong Gate, there were indeed fewer guards.Suddenly, there was a strong smell of blood in the air. He took two steps forward and took a closer look, only to see a person thrown outside by two guards.

He quickened his pace, showed Nuoxu's token again, and then walked out of the palace gate, and saw the person thrown out lying lifeless on the ground, covered in blood, with his left hand twisted, and two more people in front of him pushing a wooden cart Car, come towards them.

Without even thinking about it, he kicked the man to see if he was dead.He only heard a faint licking sound, and then he caught a glimpse of that person's painful face, and it turned out to be Song Leyu.He was stunned for a moment, and heard the people behind say: "Boy, hurry up, I'm being hindered from my work."

"He He……"

"Isn't it the person who offended the palace, let us throw him outside, see that he is covered in blood, and he is close to death. It is a hot day for us, and he has to be transported far away."

"Uncle, I know this man, please give him to me. This is money for a wooden cart." Yao Ziyu took out two silver coins from his purse and handed them over to the two uncles. After passing the money, I put down the wooden cart and went to drink.

Yao Ziyu carried Song Leyu into the car, and whispered in his ear: "Le Yu, it's okay, I'll see Tianbao soon, it's okay." After finishing speaking, he gritted his teeth and pushed the cart.
