Stay alive

A few days passed by in a hurry, and the rash on Xing Wu's body gradually diminished. Lin Qiannan asked him why he was so surprised, and he bluntly said that it was an ancestral panacea from his subordinates.

Xing Wu was dubious about Huo Liang's elixir, but Lin Qiannan had no abnormal vision after only two days of illness. Sometimes he really wanted to take off Lin Qiannan's clothes to see for peace of mind.

"Why do you keep looking at me?" Lin Qiannan threw a piece of dry wood towards the fire ahead.

"It's okay." Xing Wu said.

Except for the slightly faded cinnabar mole between Lin Qiannan's eyebrows, Xing Wu couldn't see anything unusual, and he still worried about any details.

Lin Qiannan said again: "You can enter Beijing tomorrow, what are your plans?"

Xing Wu thought about it, and said: "Of course I have to go back to the palace first, how about you?"

"I have my mission, traveling with you will take too much time for me," Lin Qiannan held a wooden stick to pull the fire, "Hmm..." He hesitated to speak, and seemed to be preoccupied.

"Would you like to come with me?" Xing Wu said ambiguously.

"Together what?" Lin Qiannan laughed.

"It's nothing."

The atmosphere suddenly fell into an awkward situation.Lin Qiannan seemed to be both a guest and a host in Yu Kingdom, which was really embarrassing.Or maybe the identities of Lin Qiannan and Han Qi are already at odds.

"Go to sleep." Lin Qiannan lay down on the spot.

"Qiannan, Ya'er's convoy will take about three days to arrive in Beijing. You might as well stay with me in the palace for a while, it's better than wandering outside." Xing Wu separated him by a fire.

Lin Qiannan turned to look at him and said, "You will be the emperor when you go back. What if you offend me and punish me to death?"

"No, no one can hurt you in the palace." Xing Wu said.

Lin Qiannan lay down and thought for a while, and felt that what Xing Wu said was very reasonable. The ups and downs in the capital could not be predicted by him alone. Since Xing Wu wanted to protect him, it would not be a bad thing to have multiple helpers.

"Okay." Lin Qiannan agreed.

They are now on the outskirts of the capital, and they are only one step away from the magnificent capital, but they all stopped at the small ruined temple overnight.

Because when he returned to the capital, there was no such person as Xing Wu.

Lin Qiannan knew it well, and no matter what happened, he couldn't escape this fact.Han Qi was a stranger to him, but Xing Wu was not. He had to face up to Xing Wu who only had him in his eyes.

My heart was in a mess, but was it because of Han Qi who decided to forget?

It wasn't Han Qi, it was Xing Wu.

Lin Qiannan turned sideways again and saw that Xing Wu had closed his eyes to rest, so he didn't speak, and looked at his silhouette quietly.

"Little...five?" Lin Qiannan felt that this title wanted to carry electricity, and his mouth was so numb.

He may have liked Xiao Wu instead of Han Qi before, just as it is Xing Wu instead of Han Qi that makes him feel up and down now.

From the beginning to the end, maybe it wasn't Han Qi.

Lin Qiannan comforted himself, closed his eyes to rest, and when he opened them again, there were steaming steamed buns waiting for him. After breakfast, they led the horses to the city gate.

When they arrived at the city gate, there were palace guards in disguise waiting for Xing Wu.

"I'm not familiar with this place at all." Lin Qiannan stopped in front of the tall city gate, and the towering city gate made him feel empty.

Xing Wu looked at him, and took him into the prepared carriage.

The carriage staggered towards the most affluent and noble place in the country of Yu. The curtains of the carriage covered the happy street scene of the people outside. Lin Qiannan didn't want to miss it. He felt that this place where he had lived for several years made him uneasy.

Lin Qiannan's eyes rarely showed melancholy, and Xing Wu caught it very well.

"What's wrong with Qiannan?" Xing Wu asked with concern.

Lin Qiannan put away his melancholy, and said, "I think this place is very familiar, and the capital is prosperous, which is incomparable in the southern country."

"If I have the chance, I will visit the southern country." Xing Wu said.

Lin Qiannan joked: "If you dare to go to the southern country, you are not afraid of being beaten into a sieve by the people of the southern country?"

"Do they hate me?"

"Perhaps, the two countries are like feuds. The people of the southern country count their ancestors and there are always men who died in the war. Their hatred for the Yu country is deeply rooted." Lin Qiannan said.

Unable to resist curiosity, Lin Qiannan carefully lifted up a corner of the car curtain. He saw two children playing and snatching a candied haws. He put down the car curtain and didn't look any further.

Xing Wu's eyes have changed since he got on the carriage, they are no longer so pure and clear, he thinks that the bright moon is shrouded in shadows, so he can't figure it out, let alone dare to probe deeply.

When he arrived at the palace, Xing Wu asked the palace staff to lead Lin Qiannan to an elegant palace to rest. When the palace staff saw him, they immediately greeted him graciously and greeted him warmly.

Lin Qiannan couldn't stop their enthusiasm. After sitting for a while, he couldn't sit still, so he jumped on the beams and wandered around. He wanted to find someone, but he stopped above Xing Wu's study without knowing it.

It turns out that this sleeping hall is only separated from Xing Wu's sleeping hall by a wall. I wonder if the empress has the blessing to live so close to the emperor?

Lin Qiannan was taken aback when he thought of this, and hurriedly warned himself not to think too much.

There were guards on duty at the bottom, and because Lin Qiannan didn't move around too much, he didn't arouse their vigilance.

Lin Qiannan lifted a tile to see what was inside.

The person he was looking for happened to be in the study, which saved him a lot of time.

Xing Wu was sitting on the chair on the left. After Huo Liang bowed his hands and saluted, he reported some trifles to him, probably what happened in the palace during Xing Wu's absence.

"Is there any change in the prime minister?" Xing Wu held up the teacup, and the smoke rose densely in front of him.

"The last general has something important to report," Huo Liang said, "The empress is pregnant for more than a month, and the imperial doctor diagnosed it this morning."

Lin Qiannan thought about who the queen was, and dug up the memory from five years ago. If he remembered correctly, it should be Ya'er's sister, Zhao Huanyan.

"Yeah." Xing Wu was not surprised, and could even be said to have been prepared.

Huo Liang paused, and then said: "Your Majesty...the next step?" He wanted to ask whether Zhao Huanyan's child would be kept.

"Of course this child cannot be kept."

Lin Qiannan had no emotion towards Zhao Huanyan's pregnancy, but when Xing Wu said this, he felt a pain for no reason.

Xing Wu, who was willing to save a strange woman in Sanhuzhai, would never say such cold-blooded words that he didn't even want his own child.

Xing Wu put his index finger next to his ear, touched it and tore off a layer of fake skin.Lin Qiannan's eyes widened following his movements, and the force in his hands almost crushed the tiles.

He could hear the pitiful clamor and hope in his heart.

Something had just disappeared.

don't want……

Han Qi finally tore off the mask that belonged to Xing Wu with his own hands. Han Qi casually threw the mask on the ground, his handsome face was very cold.

"Where did your panacea come from?" Han Qi looked at his own reflection in the teacup, but couldn't see any signs of the disease.

"The ancestral medicine is the elixir that the ancestors found at the border. It can save the life of the last soldier at a critical time." Huo Liang bent over and did not meet Han Qi's eyes.

Just as Han Qi was about to ask something, the sound of clang on the roof aroused his vigilance, but he understood the sound of footsteps again, so he stopped Huo Liang who was about to draw his sword to chase after him, and continued to discuss the unfinished business.

Lin Qiannan returned to the bedroom in a daze, the palace people had already prepared delicacies and delicacies waiting for him.Lin Qiannan looked at the delicacies in front of him, picked up his chopsticks and took a sip.

no taste.

He leaned closer and sniffed, and could vaguely smell a little fragrance.

Lin Qiannan was no longer surprised by the degeneration of the five senses, he had long expected that he would change.

only--

Lin Qiannan rolled up his sleeves, the veins were still black, but otherwise smooth.Where did the plague he got from Han Qi a few days ago go?

Is it absolutely poisonous?

Lin Qiannan put down his sleeves, his head hurt badly, just as he asked someone to remove the meal, a beautiful woman in luxurious palace attire entered the palace with the support of several maids.

"You are?" Lin Qiannan looked up at her.

Zhao Huanyan is very beautiful, she is a coquettish and blooming beauty like a peony, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as "overwhelming country and city", but no matter how beautiful the peony is, it is difficult to catch Lin Qiannan's eyes.

He didn't remember Zhao Huanyan's appearance very much five years ago, and naturally he couldn't remember clearly five years later.

"Mr. Lin, long time no see." Zhao Huanyan took the main seat with the support of the maid.

Lin Qiannan thought of what Huo Liang said, and subconsciously looked at her stomach. Zhao Huanyan saw his gaze, and shyly covered her flat stomach.

"I'm pregnant, it's only been a month... I can't see anything yet."

Lin Qiannan was speechless, he didn't want to see anything.

Zhao Huanyan looked around and said: "This palace is very nice, very close to His Majesty, with His Majesty's protection, this palace will surely give birth to a healthy dragon son for His Majesty. But Mr. Lin is a guest, It is right to let Mr. Lin live first."

What she meant was that Lin Qiannan had robbed her of her favorite place to raise her baby.

Lin Qiannan drank his tea and listened to her as if he were singing an opera.

In the past, he had heard a lot about how gentle and virtuous Miss Zhao's family was, but now that she is the queen of the world, she is living like a little girl.

Lin Qiannan took a sip of tea, imagining how the tea in the palace should be fragrant.

Zhao Huanyan could naturally see that Lin Qiannan was absent-minded. Her ten nails dyed red with cardamom were intertwined, which finally explained the purpose of her visit.

"I heard...my sister Bengong is coming back soon?" Zhao Huanyan said.

Lin Qiannan looked at her and gave a faint "hmm".

As the lord of the harem, he has done nothing and has nothing to do for five years. There are only a few concubines in the palace. Rumors spread that most of them are queens like Baosi and Daji, which is very vulgar.

Zhao Zhangrui recalled Zhao Huanya because of his illness. He probably didn't intend to ask Zhao Huanya to go back. He dotes on Zhao Huanya, but what he loves more is his status and never having to worry about anything. Now that Zhao Huanyan's child comes at the right time, I'm afraid that Zhao Zhangrui's plan will be ruined. changed.

Lin Qiannan gave a "tsk" and cursed secretly.

Zhao Huanyan thought that Lin Qiannan was displeased, so she frowned and said, "Young master Lin complains to me as soon as he complains, so why treat him with cold words."

Lin Qiannan hadn't spoken since she came in, and he didn't want to be charged with such a crime.

"Princess He'an is the queen's younger sister, so she will be happy for your child." Lin Qiannan said with a pun.

One is to remind Zhao Huanya that she is her biological sister, and the other is to tell her that Zhao Huanya is not interested in her successor.

Zhao Huanyan breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a soft smile: "I just miss my sister, and naturally want to share with my sister when there are happy events."

"Empress, what else do you want to say?" Lin Qiannan looked at the sky outside from the corner of his eye, and it was long past the time for the concubine to walk around at will.

Zhao Huanyan dragged her rich body to come here at the first time, definitely not just for one thing.
