"Donghu...an orphan?" Wen Xing was stunned for a while, his eyes full of surprise.

Due to Donghu's active aggression, Emperor Anlong sent Wen Xing's father to lead the army six or seven years ago, and finally defeated Donghu and returned triumphantly, making a great contribution to the expansion of the Northern Dynasty's territory.

Back then Tang An also said that his father and mother were killed by bad guys, if what Xie Lian said was true, Wen Xing's father could be regarded as half of her enemy.

Xie Lian thought it was Wen Xing's disbelief, and explained: "I heard this from Xiaowei Fei, the father of Mr. Fei just now. There is a daughter named Tang An under King Donghu's knee, who died because of a scar on her face. Not to be seen by others, but King Donghu loved him very much. Captain Fei was ordered to lead troops into the city of King Donghu and captured everyone including King Donghu, except his little daughter."

Up to this point, Wen Xing couldn't help but gasp.In case that caring person finds out that Tang An is in the Wen Mansion, he might be accused of treason and collaborating with the enemy.

Knowing that Wen Xing understood the pros and cons, Xie Lian frowned and reminded: "It might be a disaster to keep this girl."

Wen Xing put his eyes on the direction they left, and lightly drew his brows together, and a trace of unbearableness disappeared from the bottom of his eyes.After deliberating for a while, he replied: "I understand the truth, but she is still just an innocent child..."

In five years, raising a dog can create a deep relationship, let alone a human?Wen Xing thought he couldn't abandon Tang An or... kill him with a firm heart.

"Her Donghu blood is not destined to be innocent." Xie Lian took a deep look at Wen Xing, "If you are willing to keep her, I will keep it a secret for you, but I hope you will not regret it in the future."

Wen Xing heard the implication of Xie Lian's words, and still saluted respectfully, and replied: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness, the Second Prince."

Xie Lian patted Wen Xing's shoulder, turned around and continued to Wen Yu's yard, Wen Xing hurriedly followed.

"However, since she is from Donghu, she will definitely have certain advantages in martial arts. You can pay attention to this aspect." Xie Lian continued to add as he walked, "Also, we must change her name and surname as soon as possible. Cover up the scars if you can, but if you can't, let her appear in front of people as little as possible."

Wen Xing remembered them all in his heart, a smile appeared in his eyes, and he thanked him in a low voice.

Xie Lian turned his head to look at Wen Xing, and said jokingly: "But this sourness has made me sick, so you can't annoy me in the future."

Wen Xing also met Xie Lian's gaze, and the two couldn't help but smile knowingly after looking at each other for a moment.

The serious atmosphere caused by Tang An's life experience dissipated in this harmonious smile, but the oppressive feeling in Wen Xing's heart did not disappear.

Is it really the right choice to keep Tang An?

Taking advantage of the gap that Xie Lian couldn't notice, he withdrew his relaxed look, and his brows were stained with sadness.

-

The next day, Wen Xing, who was about to go to the study room in the palace, was told that he didn't have to go when he was leaving - His Highness the Crown Prince's birthday would be two days later. At His Highness's request, the study room was changed to the first day after the birthday.

Only then did Wen Xing realize that today is the seventeenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and two days later the nineteenth day of the twelfth lunar month will be Xie Yi's twelfth birthday.

"In addition, His Royal Highness invited you into the palace, saying that there is something to discuss." Fu Lu glanced left and right, took a small step forward and continued in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "His Royal Highness is in a better mood today, maybe Not a bad thing."

Wen Xing didn't expect that Fu Lu would specifically explain the situation to him, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled, and said softly, "Thank you, Eunuch Fu."

After finishing speaking, he followed Fulu into the palace.

When Xie Yi summoned Wen Xing, he also thoughtfully prepared the sedan chair. He sat in the sedan chair and raised the curtain, looking at the lonely and deserted street in the early morning, with a vague premonition in his heart.

I hope it is an illusion.

He sighed and lowered the curtain.

The gate of the East Palace was still deserted as usual, as if nothing had changed because of the master's birthday.

Fu Lu went into the East Palace to report, and Wen Xing stood at the door waiting.

On the morning of the twelfth lunar month, the cold wind cut people's faces like a thin blade.He exhaled lightly and rubbed his red hands from the cold.

"Second Master Wen, please." Not long after, Fu Lu came out and told him that he could go in.

Wen Xing nodded in thanks and stepped into the East Palace.

The warm current from the charcoal fire spreads across the surface, as if it can melt all the cold outside the door.An apricot-yellow figure stood upright in the hall, glaring a little under the light of the faint candles that had not been extinguished.

"See His Royal Highness the Prince." Wen Xing knelt down and saluted, with a sense of alienation in his tone and demeanor.

Xie Yi didn't seem to hear it, his eyes lit up when he heard the voice behind him, and he hurriedly turned his head to let Wen Xing fall down.

After thanking Wen Xing, he stood up slowly, and as soon as he raised his eyes, he met Xie Yi's obsidian-like eyes, which shone brightly and dazzled the eyes.

With a daze, he was grabbed by Xie Yi who ran over joyfully without any precaution.

The warmth in Xie Yi's palm spread all the way through Wen Xing's hands, as if he wanted to touch the frozen heart, but it was a pity that Wen Xing, who had reacted, stopped him.

He withdrew his hand and took half a step back before he could barely stop, as if he realized something and rushed to plead guilty: "It's my minister's rudeness, I hope Your Highness will forgive me."

The cold temperature wiped away the palm of the hand, leaving stinging scratches like sharp ice cubes.Xie Yi stopped in mid-air and moved his hands, retracting his empty palms, and the starlight in his eyes dimmed.

Wen Xing inadvertently raised his head and saw this scene, as if something lightly poked his heart, so light that he didn't even notice it.

He looked away uncomfortably, and asked, "May I ask what is the important matter for His Highness to call the ministers into the palace?"

Xie Yi suppressed Wen Xing's smile when he first arrived, and said: "Yesterday Gu specially ordered someone to measure the distance from General Wen's Mansion to the Imperial Palace, and found that the palace city is far away from General Wen's Mansion, so Ah Xing should move into the palace."

Wen Xing was stunned for a moment, and frowned when he came back to his senses: "Your Highness, this is not in line with etiquette."

Xie Yi pulled out a disdainful smile, and said: "If Gu says it is a ritual, then it is a ritual. I have already asked my father for instructions, and when the study starts again, you can pack up all the things you need by the way. "

After he finished speaking, he turned around, and without giving Wen Xing the slightest chance to argue, he directly called Fu Lu to see off the guests.

"Please, Second Young Master Wen."

Fu Lu, who came in from the door, saw that his master's good mood this morning seemed to have dissipated, so he took the order to see off the guests without any surprise.

Wen Xing wanted to say something else, Xie Yi snorted first and went back to his room.

The hand hidden in the sleeve clenched slightly and then loosened again.

Thinking of the deal with Xie Wan, he finally let out a sigh of relief, thanked Fu Lu with a smile, and hurried to Fei Mansion.

Once he lives in the palace, it is bound to be very difficult for him to have the opportunity to go out of the palace again. He must first ask Fei Qing to explain some things - especially about Tang An.

"Second Young Master Wen, please wait a moment." The butler of Fei Mansion brought Wen Xing to the hall dedicated to receiving guests, and respectfully invited Fei Qing.

Compared with Fei Qing who always loves to be active and active, Wen Xing has been more restrained since he was a child, and he seldom comes to Fei Mansion on his own initiative on weekdays, even in the past five years, the number of times he has come is only a handful.

He carefully looked at the hall, waiting boredly for Fei Qing to come over.

"Wen Xing, I'm coming!"

Before Fei Qing's figure appeared at the door, Wen Xing heard his loud voice.

He smiled helplessly, Fei Qing was still so reckless in his teens, and he didn't know whether it was appropriate for Tang An to entrust him with his affairs.

Thinking of this, Wen Xing's brows were covered with another cloud of sadness.

"What's wrong with you, Ah Xing? You don't look very happy?" Fei Qing saw Wen Xing's wrinkled face as soon as he entered the door, as if he was very bored.

Wen Xing sighed, and said: "His Royal Highness wants me to move into the palace, and also said that he has consulted the emperor for instructions."

Fei Qing frowned lightly when she heard this, and asked, "Isn't your relationship with the prince very normal? Why did he suddenly want you to enter the palace?"

"I don't know either." Wen Xing shook his head, "But it's certain that you can't refuse. Next, I have to tell you something, you must remember it well."

Hearing what Wen Xing said, Fei Qing raised his face in a rare way, nodded seriously, and said, "Tell me, I will remember."

Wen Xing asked him to push all the maids away and closed the door himself, led Fei Qing to sit on the chair farthest from the door, and then slowly said: "I just learned yesterday that Tang An is the king of Donghu. orphan."

"What?! You said Tang An is..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fei Qing's eyes widened in surprise.Wen Xing quickly covered his mouth, and winked to remind him not to talk nonsense.

Fei Qing immediately nodded, indicating that she understood.

After Wen Xing was sure that this reckless bamboo horse really understood what he meant, he let go of his hand and continued, "You must also know about the complicated relationship during this period. After I enter the palace, I will no longer be able to take care of Tang An. I can only give her to you, are you willing?"

"Of course!" Fei Qing didn't agree with Tang An's aura, but he was not so ruthless, "Don't worry, I will definitely guard this matter and guard her."

Wen Xing nodded and reminded: "Remember to change her name when the time comes, and it's best to change her surname as well. Also, cover up the scars on her face if she can. If she can't, don't let her show her face in front of others."

"I see." Fei Qing replied solemnly, it seemed that he really cared about it.

Seeing this, Wen Xing was relieved.In his previous life, Fei Qing was able to take care of Tang An until he grew up, so as long as he has the heart in this life, it shouldn't be a big problem.

He continued to add: "As a native of East Lake, Tang An is suitable for learning martial arts. You can teach her when you have time - remember not to bring her here to teach, your father knows her."

Fei Qing wrote down one by one, it was the first time that the free and unrestrained young man put a burden on his shoulders.

Wen Xing patted his shoulder lightly, fearing that his heart would be too heavy, he pulled out a smile and said, "How did you get along with Tang An before, just continue like this from now on. I really don't have anyone to trust me to." I found you, I hope you don't blame me."

Fei Qing wiped her face, erased the original complicated emotions, and said with a smile: "What did you say, did you forget about our friendship? Let alone such a trivial matter, even if you want me to I have to do the mountain of swords and the sea of ​​fire, right?"

Wen Xing pursed his smile, and there was a soft light in his eyes.He didn't continue this topic with Fei Qing anymore, he left and returned home after instructing him on some other trivial matters.

Next, I will tell my mother and elder brother about this matter.

The author has something to say: When I saw little angels leaving messages with relatives and friends, I suddenly wanted to cry

When I see it at this lowest moment, there will always be a feeling that there are still people standing or just passing by me to see me

at least i'm not alone

And the moment when I saw the collection move

Before I signed the contract, it was colder than this, but I have never felt in such a mood today

Really really thank all the little angels who left comments and favorites
