After the assassination incident, maybe it was the third prince, or maybe it was someone else who was worried about scaring the snake, and there will be no similar things in a short time.

Later, Mei Niang also apologized to Wen Xing, and left the capital quietly on the second day, no one knew where she went.Wen Xing can only express regret for this.

In the next five years, Wen Xing fulfilled his promise to assist Xie Yi, but he also clearly felt the difference from his previous life - Xie Yi seemed more inclined to solve all the problems by himself, and no longer let him solve them purely , the most is to find him to discuss countermeasures.

Wen Xing is happy to see the success of this.

Who wouldn't love to be able to do less work?As time went by, Wen Xing's life in the palace became more leisurely, and he wandered around from time to time.

But later, Fei Qing also passed the martial arts examination and officially became a patrol guard in the palace. He could chat with Wen Xing to relieve boredom on weekdays when he had nothing to do, and from time to time, he would reveal some gossip that he knew during the patrol.

Tang An changed his name to Qiu Jing. Under Fei Qing's five years of training, his martial arts improved rapidly, and his temperament in front of others became more and more indifferent. Only the cursing after seeing Fei Qing never changed.But Tang An's identity was too sensitive, so Wen Xing left Fei Qing to wait in the Wen residence after she entered the palace.

Everything seemed plain and plain, but the reborn Wen Xing and Xie Yi knew very well that this was just the tranquility before the storm.

-

In April of Anlong's 22nd year, Wen Xing, who was as old as Guan, stood at the gate of the East Palace and looked at the distant sky.

"Ah Xing, what are you looking at?"

After five years of precipitation, 17-year-old Xie Yi has lost her childhood appearance and is becoming more and more gentle.

Hearing the voice behind him, Wen Xing withdrew his gaze and shook his head lightly, saying "nothing".Then he turned around and asked with a smile, "Is Your Highness going to court?"

When Xie Yi reached the age of tying his hair, Emperor Anlong asked him to come to the court to listen to the government.As for the studies, they moved back to the East Palace from the upper study room, and the prince Taifu personally taught them.

Hearing Wen Xing's question, Xie Yi said with a smile, "Yes, I really envy you that you can still have a leisurely morning."

He said so, but there was no envy in his eyes.Wen Xing seemed to be used to his appearance, he smiled and said nothing, and turned to let Xie Yi pass by.

Xie Yi also stopped joking, and walked to court in a leisurely manner.

"My lord, do you want breakfast?" Yun Nian reminded Xie Yi in time after he left.

Only then did Wen Xing vaguely remember that he hadn't eaten yet, and after thanking him, he walked back to his room slowly.

It doesn't take much time to have breakfast, Wen Xing reckoned that there was still a while before the next court, so he decided to go for a walk.

The spring morning was still soaked in the slightest bit of chill, but Wen Xing didn't seem to feel it, and strolled leisurely in the palace road that he had walked through countless times.

"Ugh..."

At this moment, Wen Xing suddenly heard a faint cry, which seemed to be that of a child.

Doubt arose in his heart, he followed the source of the sound, and finally saw a seven or eight-year-old child by the towering palace wall.

The child was dressed in extraordinary clothes, maybe he was the son of some prince and noble who lost his way into the palace, and he was sitting in a corner with his knees hugged and weeping.

Feeling pity for Wen Xing, he stepped forward and asked softly, "Are you lost?"

The child's crying stopped abruptly.He shrank his shoulders, turned his head and refused to look at Wen Xing.

Wen Xing only thought that he was shy, squatted in front of the child and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid. What's your name? I'll take you back."

The voice like a clear spring flowed into the child's ears, and he was finally willing to gently turn his face to look at Wen Xing, and in the next moment he was wrapped in Wen Xing's warm smile, very warm.

Wen Xing saw that the child was willing to talk to him, his eyes became more gentle, and he waited patiently for the child's answer.

"I...I don't want to go back..." The child's curly eyelashes were like butterfly feathers, with a small teardrop hanging on it.

Wen Xing vaguely thought of Xie Yi on the night the eldest princess died.

But soon he withdrew his thoughts, pondered for a moment and said: "Then...do you want to go to the East Palace with me first? It's still cold in the morning, and it's not very good to catch a cold."

The child didn't seem to expect that Wen Xing would propose to take him to the East Palace, he was stunned for a moment and asked cautiously: "I... can I?"

Wen Xing smiled, stretched out a hand and put it in front of the child. "Let's go?"

The child couldn't help stretching out his chubby little hand, as if he was afraid that he would stain Wen Xing's slender, white, warm palm, and hesitantly wanted to retract it.

Wen Xing saw the uneasiness in his eyes, held the child's hand behind his back, pulled him to stand up, and said, "His Royal Highness is also very good, you don't have to worry. Let's go."

After finishing speaking, Wen Xing took the child directly to the East Palace.

Xie Yi hadn't come down yet, and the child refused to say his name, Wen Xing didn't know what to do with the child, so he talked with him in the room after giving him some breakfast.

When Xie Yi finally came back, the child had let go a lot compared to the shyness when he first met.

"Ah Xing, Gu..." As soon as Xie Yi pushed open the door of Wen Xing's room, he was really taken aback when he saw a half-old child inside.

Wen Xing thought that Xie Yi was wondering about the child's origin, so he comforted the child who had froze since Xie Yi pushed the door open, and then explained to Xie Yi: "I found this child near the East Palace this morning. He didn't want to Saying the name, the minister looked pitiful and picked it up."

In the end, Xie Yi frowned slightly, and said as he walked in: "Are you able to pick up the children in this palace randomly? He is the lonely sixth emperor's younger brother, Xie Qing."

This time Wen Xing was stunned for a moment.He blinked and said: "So it's the sixth prince? I thought it was a child from some family who got lost."

"That's not something you can randomly pick up." Xie Yi didn't want to blame Wen Xing, but shook his head and chuckled, "Okay, send him back, his mother and concubine will have to worry about it later."

Wen Xing naturally understood this reason, and was about to receive the order, the eight-year-old Xiao Xie Qing suddenly grabbed his sleeve and said aggrievedly, "I don't want to go back...don't drive me away, okay?"

Wen Xing's heart softened immediately, and he looked up at Xie Yi.

Xie Qing noticed Wen Xing's movement, also looked at Xie Yi, and softly called "Brother Prince".

No matter how decisive Xie Yi was, he really couldn't resist this soft and sticky little emperor, so he smiled helplessly: "Well, since we're all here, let's just stay a little longer."

With permission, Xie Qing jumped over happily and gave Xie Yi a hug, then let go of her hands in a panic the moment she hugged her, and apologized softly with red ears: "Yes, I'm sorry..."

Except for Xie Lian, Xie Yi seldom gets in touch with the younger brothers, and Xie Lian is not as shy as Xie Qing, Xie Yi is also a little at a loss for a while.

He subconsciously looked at Wen Xing, expressing his helplessness.

Wen Xing couldn't help chuckling, stepped forward and rubbed Xie Qing's soft hair, and said softly: "I'm right, right? Your elder brother is a very nice person, so I won't blame you. Do not worry."

Xie Qing's cheeks were flushed, she secretly raised her head to glance at Xie Yi and then quickly looked away, her appearance was extremely cute.

Xie Yi stared at Wen Xing's hand resting on Xie Qing's hair and paused for a long time, then he looked away inadvertently and remained silent.

Wen Xing noticed the slight change in Xie Yi's mood, and asked, "What's wrong, Your Highness?"

Xie Yi blinked his eyes and said innocently, "Gu also wants Ah Xing to rub his head."

Wen Xing: "...?"

What Xie Yi wore was the gentle temperament that had gradually emerged in the past few years, and what he said seemed like a child, and Wen Xing didn't even realize it for a while.

After a while, he couldn't help laughing, and said to Xie Yi who was already as tall as him: "Your Highness, you are not a child anymore, so stop teasing this humble minister."

Obviously, he didn't take Xie Yi's words seriously.After finishing speaking, he dragged Xie Qing back to the table and sat down.

Xie Yi had no choice but to sit down with him.

Wen Xing and Xie Qing continued the previous topic, Xie Yi stared at Xie Qing's face that resembled his mother and concubine, and his thoughts flew back to his previous life.

Xie Yi had a vague impression that in his previous life, before his death, he passed the throne to Xie Qing who had not reached the crown yet.

In his previous life, he only occasionally saw his sixth younger brother when the princes gathered together, so he didn't know much about him, only that his mother and concubine came from the Xu family—that is, Wen Xing's mother's natal family.

However, because his father always favored his mother and concubine and Xie Lian's mother and concubine, Xu's status as a concubine in the palace was neither high nor low, and he was usually very low-key, rarely showing up with Xie Qing.

Xie Yi originally thought that Xie Qing was born shy, but now it seems that it may be because of the lack of contact with people.

"His Royal Highness?"

Wen Xing noticed that Xie Yi was in a daze, and called out softly.

"Huh?" Xie Yi came back to his senses, and his obsidian eyes were placed on Wen Xing again, as if he could only see this figure.

Wen Xing smiled and said: "His Sixth Highness asked you if he can come here often in the future."

Only then did Xie Yi put his gaze on Xie Qing, met his expectant eyes, nodded somehow, rubbed his head with a chuckle like Wen Xing, and said, "Come whenever you want." Right. On weekdays, this East Palace is always deserted, so it would be nice to add some popularity."

Xie Qing didn't seem to understand the second part of Xie Yi's words, she tilted her head in doubt and said, "But they all said that Brother Prince's place is the busiest place."

"No matter how lively it is, it's just an illusion." Xie Yi said with emotion, and looked at Wen Xing meaningfully.

Wen Xing smiled back and didn't speak.

Although he didn't know why Xie Yi was suddenly so attached to his sincerity in this life, but he would not be fooled so foolishly again.

Xie Qing was still young and didn't understand the superficial skills of flattery, so she nodded with half understanding, continuing to immerse herself in the joy of Xie Yi agreeing to his frequent requests.

After that, Xie Qing really came here from time to time every day, and most of the time he went to play with Wen Xing.Because of this, Wen Xing spent less time alone with Xie Yi, to the point that Xie Yi regretted that he had softened his heart and agreed to him.

Wen Xing was happy to have someone to accompany him to relieve his boredom, and after being inexplicably snubbed by Xie Yi for a while, he remembered to restrain himself.

The author has something to say: Xie Yi: Feelings alone knit a green hat for themselves?

Wen Xing: Children in the rebellious period are really difficult to serve.
