first glance

Deng Qi followed behind him, only gave a faint "huh", and didn't argue with him, just made up his mind that he had made a long time ago.He looked at the back of the slender young man in front of him, and in an instant he merged that back with the person who had been hiding in his heart for several years. He felt that Song Nian had grown a lot in just a few months.It's just that he didn't know whether it was because he was too stupid in the past, or because he was very talented, and he grew by leaps and bounds once he was in a relaxed environment.

Hu Mang finished customs clearance and was standing beside Song Nian's carriage waiting for him. When he saw him coming, he hurriedly rushed forward and said hurriedly: "Deng Qi took you to blow the wind again. Mr. Feng Han just got better the day before yesterday. , pay more attention." After speaking, he quickly stood beside Song Nian, relying on his large physique to shield him from the biting cold wind.

"It's because I'm bored by myself, let Brother Deng accompany me to breathe, it's only a short time, it doesn't matter." In fact, he didn't see how warm he was when he got in the car, he had already given away all he could, Only some supplies necessary for life are kept, and now the charcoal fire is only burned for a while when cooking.

Deng Qi ignored Hu Mang's eye knife flying over, his nose was not his face and his face was not his face, so he "hummed" at him, and turned around to do other things. More like an old lady.

"When we get to the place, the young master has to exercise with my old Hu every day. Your body is too weak, so you need to exercise more." Although this Hu Mang is a rough man, he is also a loyal man. Song Nian has no airs, so he gradually treats Song Nian as his younger brother.

"Okay, Brother Yihu." Song Nian's mood has improved since he left the palace, and he is no longer hunched over and timid all day long as before. His body is much stronger than before, but it is still relatively normal. People are worse.

The last time a wind-cold outbreak looked very dangerous, he fell asleep in the car for three days, and Deng Qi took care of him for three days in plain clothes.Occasionally he woke up and asked him to rest, and only said that it would be good to let the little eunuchs guard him, but Deng Qi insisted on not letting him, thinking that the two little eunuchs were young and unwieldy.

Traveling to the wilderness, no doctor could be found in the desolate surroundings. Fortunately, Deng Qi seemed to know some medical principles, so he took care of Song Nian for a few days, and Song Nian gradually recovered.

The group of people walked through the vast snowfield for another eight or nine days, and finally arrived at the Imperial City of Yan Kingdom.Song Nianmu's country name is Xin, and the Xin country is located in the south. Both the architecture and the humanities are elegant and restrained. Most of the houses and city defense towers are made of wood.If the country of Xin is a refined and elegant son, then the country of Yan is the general with a bearded tiger, towering city towers, palaces and temples are mostly built of stone, and all kinds of pedestrians on the street, both male and female, are taller and rougher than the people of the country of Xin , and their clothes are mostly coarse animal skins.

Sure enough, Deng Qi followed Song Nian's words and found some things for him to wipe his face and paint moles, and he came to paint Song Nian's face every morning.Song Nian felt that this person was really a wonderful person, and he didn't know where he learned these nondescript skills. He actually made him draw a rough-faced boy with evil moles on his face and dark red complexion.

The first time Lao Hu saw Song Nian coming out with such a face, he almost didn't roll his eyes out. Before he could talk to Song Nian, he turned around and went to settle accounts with Deng Qi, but Deng Qi was quite disdainful of him, his nose Humming out to him is considered a face to him.Lao Hu naturally refused, and the two had a quarrel for half the time before being mediated by Song Nian.

After waiting for more than half a month in the Imperial City Posthouse, Song Nian was already up when Deng Qi came to paint Song Nian early this morning, and was sitting on the edge of the bed, lost in thought.

"Why do you get up so early?" Earth dragon was burned in the post house, and the temperature was suitable. Song Nian was only wearing pajamas and sitting beside the bed with a cotton quilt. "I don't wear shoes yet, my bare feet are cold, put on my shoes first."

Song Nian hadn't woken up yet, and was yawning against the bedpost, only two white feet were exposed under the black pajamas. "I'm a little nervous, I can't sleep." After listening to what he said, Song Nian fumbled out a foot to hook the shoe at the end of the bed.

Deng Qi looked away as if nothing had happened, walked to the bed and kicked his shoes over for him to put them on.

"What's there to be nervous about? It's up to you to make this happen. It depends on the gift list and credentials you brought. You just kneel down and kowtow." While fiddling with the objects in his hand, he talked to Song Nian.

Song Nian is still a teenager after all, even with Deng Qi Kuanwei, he still has sympathy, but it is better than before.In his hand, he was playing with a sachet that Deng Qi gave him when he went out a few days ago. It was not the fragrant and elegant spices commonly used by the nobles of the Xin Kingdom, but a warm and strong smell. Song Nian was not used to smelling it, so he hung it on the porch outside the house. It took a few days to come in.

"Okay, go wash your face and sit down." Deng Qi saw that he was still half leaning on the head of the bed with one foot raised, and Yubai kicked a shoe up and down on his foot, so he knew that he was still there. Mind wandering, hurriedly urged him to sit down.

Song Nian had no choice but to lazily stand up, stretched his muscles and bones and yawned big, and moved away step by step to wash his face.

He didn't stop when drawing the face, he looked here and there, Deng Qi almost drew crooked several times, he just stretched out a hand to hold his chin, fixed him in one place, and finally finished drawing a face .

Deng Qi only felt that the skin under his hands was smooth and delicate, and under the warm skin and flesh were the edges and corners of a young man's first growth, which made people fantasize about the place where the skin meets.

Song Nian didn't know about this at all, his chin was pinched in his hand, his lips were slightly pursed, he muttered to Deng Qi in a low voice, "You can teach me your secret that you don't want to pass on, just in case What if I don’t know how to draw when you’re not here? Besides, you don’t need to get up early every day to draw with me after you teach me, wouldn’t it be leisurely?”

"I'm a hard worker, but I don't dare to covet leisure. Don't talk, let you draw by yourself. Isn't it suspicious that you draw differently every day? Let me do it. Don't move. That's it." alright."

Song Nian narrowed his eyes slightly when he looked at him seriously, and for no reason felt that the distance between the two seemed to be a little closer, and he could feel the warm breath on the other's body when he breathed, but fortunately he had been painted by Deng Qi. He has a black face, and other people can't see that his face is flushed.He moved back silently, but Deng Qi frowned, "The drawing is almost finished, don't move around." Song Nian hurriedly didn't dare to move.

After the proton entered the country, according to the regulations, he could not retain too many people from his home country to accompany him, only two close attendants. Song Nian originally wanted Hu Mang and Deng Qi to return to the country, and only one or two young eunuchs would be enough, but Deng Qi insisted on refusing to do so. thing, but also had a few days of sulking with him.Even Hu Mang categorically refused the idea of ​​returning to the country, and sent the others back to the country neatly.

Therefore, only Song Nian, Deng Qi, and Hu Mang entered the palace today.And Deng Qi and Hu Mang could only wait outside the gate of the first palace, while Song Nian lowered his head and gathered up his clothes, and followed the eunuch leading the way and walked in quickly.

Deng Qi was suppressed by this heavy imperial power system, he couldn't even raise his head to look at the back of the young man who went to the deep palace alone, so he knelt quietly on the ground, waiting for him to come out.Thinking of his all-powerful Southern Immortal Emperor, he couldn't remember the last time he bowed his knees like this. Deng Qi could barely find out and sighed softly, remembering a sentence said by his old friend who came to look for him last night. .

At that time, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and it was the time when everyone was sleeping, he was forcibly lifted out of this body by his old friend, so he had to find a dense forest to talk to him.

"I knew you were headstrong, but I didn't know that you were so bold. The Emperor is also someone you can provoke? The fate is all on him. If you change his fate because of your reckless actions, even the general situation of the world will be affected by it." Change, how can you afford the consequences, are you just kidding around when you are the Xuanlei of the nine days?"

This old friend is a good friend he met when he first ascended to the sky. His name is Lian Che, and he is the youngest prince of the Shenlong clan. People don't know each other without acquaintances, and they become close friends after going back and forth.

It's just that this friend is no longer a dandy since he got married thousands of years ago, and now he can stand here and talk to him with dignity.

"Don't worry, I didn't interfere with any of his decisions. I just tried my best to make him feel better physically and mentally. How many times have I suffered from the Nine Heavens Profound Thunder, but it's just an extra one." Deng Qi Now that he has shown his real body, he should be called Immortal Emperor Li Ke. At this time, he is no longer Deng Qi.I saw a person wearing a thick black robe, with only a belt inlaid with pale emerald jade around his waist. That person was slender, with broad shoulders and narrow waist. A rare romantic figure in the world.

"You have been infatuated with him for a long time, and you are not afraid of hurting yourself, but you are not afraid of hurting him?" Lian Che's words really reached Li Ke's heart.

Even now, Deng Qi, kneeling on the hard steps, is still stabbed cold by those words.He has been attached to this person for tens of thousands of years, and he came to him on impulse this time, but he can do whatever he wants, it's just his own cultivation.If because of his infatuation, the indifferent emperor who had stood in the long river of time was torn down from the world of mortals, would he be able to bear it?

On this side, Deng Qi was in a state of confusion and confusion, but on the other side, Song Nian was not much better.He walked up to the spacious hall alone, the Emperor Yan on the steps was too far away, Song Nian couldn't see clearly, and didn't dare to raise his head, so he had to kneel down and kowtow nine times in full view. A big gift to show surrender.

After Song Nian finished his salute, he didn't hear the emperor forbid him to get up, so he had to kneel all the time, listening to the eunuch behind him holding a shrill voice, singing loudly the letter of credence and the list of rites he brought.

Song Nian had already memorized these contents by heart, all the ministers in the hall were silent, only the sharp voice of the eunuch could be heard echoing in the hall.After the eunuch finished reading, the emperor on the throne slowly let out an "um" from his nose, and he understood it, then waved his hand to let the eunuch go down, and then spoke to Song Nian who was kneeling on the ground.
