Xuan Jing glanced at the little red chicken, then turned his attention back to "Luo Youlan", after all, this one in front of him is what he cares most about right now.

"How does Miss Xiaolan feel? Are you feeling better?"

Regarding Xuan Jing's concern, Luo Youlan showed a proper smile: "It's much better, thank you benefactor for your concern. It's just..." She lowered her head slightly, as if she had something hard to say.

"What's wrong?" Xuan Jing asked very cooperatively.

Fu Yun glanced at Xuanjing, carried the little red chicken to the stone table in the middle of the courtyard and sat down.The little red chicken in his arms lay angrily on Fu Yun's chest, but from time to time, he turned his head to peek at the porridge on the stone table, drooling secretly.

"It's just that it's not a long-term solution for a little girl to eat and drink for free here." Luo Youlan said regretfully, "It would be great if I could do something for my benefactor."

Xuan Jing glanced at the clothes fluttering in the wind and hanging on the clothesline in the center of the courtyard, and then at the porridge cooked on the stone table, he immediately guessed what the other party was thinking.But he still maintained a good gentleman's attitude, and asked according to Luo Youlan's words: "Ah Bai and I are just servants, and there is nothing that needs Miss Luo's help. It is rare for our Highness to come out of the palace because of the schedule. I was in a hurry, and I didn’t bring any maids. Although Eunuch Qiu is by my side, he is not as caring as a woman.”

The meaning behind the words was already very clear, Luo Youlan's eyes lit up when she heard it.Xuan Jing saw these things in his eyes, and continued: "I just don't know if Miss Luo is willing to do that servant's work?"

Luo Youlan lowered her head, her black eyelashes trembling slightly, and her bright beautiful eyes looked at her pitifully, with a feeling of gratitude: "Of course the little girl is willing. The two benefactors are willing to take in the little girl, and the little girl is very grateful." Do, it is the little girl's blessing to be able to serve His Highness now."

After the words fell, there was a sound of broken porcelain bowls in the middle of the courtyard.

Xuanjing and Luo Youlan turned around to look.I saw that the porcelain bowl that had been placed safely on the stone table fell to the ground for some reason, smashed to pieces, and the white porridge inside spilled all over the floor.

Fu Yun, who was sitting at the table, kept his right hand hanging in the air, and showed an apologetic smile to Luo Youlan and Xuan Jing: "Sorry, my hand slipped."

Luo Youlan smiled twitchingly at the corner of her mouth, but that smile seemed a little stiff.

Xuan Jing glanced at Fu Yun meaningfully, knowing that this guy must have done it on purpose. - It's just because he was worried about his safety, but he couldn't persuade him to stay away from Luo Youlan, so he did these small actions.Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing.Unexpectedly, Fu Yun, who has always been polite and gentle, has such a side.

Ignoring Fu Yun, Xuan Jing brought the topic back to the right track again: "Then I will go and talk to Eunuch Qiu and His Highness, and I can take you to see His Highness if I want to come later."

"Then thank you benefactor." Luo Youlan lightly curtseyed.

Xuan Jing winked at Fu Yun, motioning him to follow him.Unexpectedly, Fu Yun turned his eyes away and pretended not to see.On the other side, Luo Youlan hurried to the table, knelt down to pick up the pieces on the ground, and said without forgetting to apologize: "It's all because the little girl didn't remind Engong in advance, this porridge has just been cooked and it's a bit hot. Engong Your hands aren't burning, are they?"

Fu Yun replied alienatedly: "It's nothing, you don't need to worry about it." The attitude of rejecting people thousands of miles away was completely different from the gentle and humble appearance before.

Luo Youlan, who picked up half of the porcelain bowl fragments, was a little dazed, as if she didn't understand why the other party's attitude towards her suddenly changed drastically.

Xuan Jing who was standing behind Luo Youlan thought that something was wrong, so he hurriedly knelt down to help, diverting Luo Youlan's attention: "Miss Luo, just leave it to me here, your body is just right, you'd better go back to the room and rest."

Although Xuanjing was smiling, his tone could not refuse.She put down the fragments with a smile, and raised her hand to lift the hair beside her ears to hide her embarrassment: "...that's fine. Youlan will go back to the house first."

Xuan Jing smiled and said: "Well, I will come to visit the girl after I receive the letter of approval from His Highness."

After Luo Youlan entered the room, Xuan Jing looked at Fu Yun and the little red chicken in his arms in silence for a long while, until each of them lowered their heads unnaturally, and said: "Let's go, it's time to greet His Highness. "

After all, he left the courtyard first.Fu Yun, who was sitting on the chair, sat dully for a while, then got up and strode up to follow.

In order to be able to better observe Luo Youlan's intentions, Xuan Jing decided to change back to the status of His Highness the Fifth Highness, and let him deal with Luo Youlan in person.Seeing that Xuan Jing had regained his identity, Fu Yun naturally couldn't continue to pretend to be a servant, so he also changed back.After removing the disguise, Xuan Jing gave the little red chicken a reprimand again, and told him not to speak in front of outsiders. Seeing its pitiful appearance, he still gave it a few plates of special snacks from Luobei County. The snack was sent away.

After the little red chicken left, Xuan Jing closed the door and decided to have a good talk with Fu Yun.Otherwise, with his current passive sabotage attitude, before Luo Youlan showed his flaws in front of him, the two of them would be seen through by the other party first.

Inside the room, Fu Yun in a light green robe was sitting on a chair with his head half drooped, as if obediently admitting his mistake.But looking closely at his eyes, it is not difficult to find that his eyes are very calm, and there is no emotion on his face, just staring at the ground steadfastly.

In one sentence, it is a posture of "a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water".

Xuan Jing rubbed his forehead with some headaches.He didn't expect Fu Yun to be such a single-minded person.Things can go well when he's willing to play with him.However, if the other party starts to resist, or even completely refuses to cooperate with his actions, his plan will almost fail to unfold.

This made him difficult.

"Tell me, what do you think? Haven't we reached a consensus before? Let Luo Youlan stay with us, and then see what tricks she plays, and follow her bright line to find the master behind her. But you What are you doing now, passive sabotage? Sudden repentance?"

Fu Yun whispered: "I just don't want to keep a scourge by my side that may hurt you at any time."

"Disaster?" Xuan Jing laughed back angrily, "So you are thinking about my safety?"

"Of course." Fu Yun raised his head, fixed his eyes on Xuan Jing, and said firmly.

"Okay, I understand." Xuan Ding nodded, pulled a stool and sat down next to Fu Yun, and the two faced each other, as if they were interrogating one-on-one.He supported Fu Yun's shoulders with both hands, staring into Fu Yun's eyes, "Look into my eyes and tell me, who am I?"

Fu Yun was stunned for a moment, then said: "You are Xuanjing."

"Well, go ahead. Where's my identity?"

Fu Yun looked puzzled, and didn't understand why Xuan Jing asked such a sudden question. Seeing that the other party was looking directly at him, waiting for his answer, he could only obediently say: "The fifth son of the Emperor of Han, one of the imperial envoys on this northern tour, Next..." He paused, and added with an unnatural expression, "Xiaguan's sweetheart."

"Very good." Xuan Jing, who ignored the last sentence directly, spoke sharply, "I will add a few more words. I am not only the fifth son of the emperor, but also the fifth prince who was the emperor's favorite and was almost made the crown prince. My mother died when I was ten years old, and I was rejected by the emperor because of this. Now I am suddenly reused by the emperor, and I came to this broken place to investigate the case. If the case is solved by me, I will succeed Gaining the emperor's favor, maybe I can make a comeback and fight with those brothers and brothers. If I'm lucky, maybe I can beat the prince and become the next emperor of Han. Of course, this must be an extremely important path. On the bloody road, I will encounter endless dangers, even the emperor may not be able to save my life."

"But if I fail, I will still die. I will be thrown into the cold palace again. What will greet me will be the group of wolves, tigers and leopards in the harem who eat people and don't spit their skin. I am a prince with no power. In the end, it is estimated that there will be no scum left after death. Therefore, no matter which path I choose, I will encounter countless dangers. May I ask Mr. Fu to be worried?" Xuan Jing looked at Fu Yun and said with a faint smile.

Fu Yun, who was shocked by Xuan Jing's words and was speechless for a long time, was stunned for a long time, and said: "Is there... no third way? For example, to investigate the case with peace of mind, solve the case, get His Majesty's appreciation, and then wait for His Royal Highness to continue You can be a generation of virtuous kings."

"Naive!" Xuan Jing was amused by Fu Yun's words, and he actually laughed, "If my mother was an unfavorable concubine in the harem, this is possible. But my mother was once honored and favored in the harem, The limelight even overwhelmed the empress. And she was only a concubine, but after her death she was buried in the royal mausoleum with the honor of an empress. The emperor even personally ordered that he should be buried with my mother and concubine after his death. You know that such an honor will give me What did you bring? The fear of the queen, the fear of the prince, and the fear of the prince's subordinates. Ten years ago, I could almost be crowned prince, why couldn't I be crowned prince ten years later? Just because of this little pitiful thing Possibility, once the crown prince ascends the throne, he will never let me go."

"King Xian?" Xuan Jing sneered, "Are you joking?"

Fu Yun's lips parted slightly, his face was as pale as death, as if he had been splashed with a bucket of cold water.He never thought that Xuan Jing's situation would be such a dilemma.

"So you can worry about anything, except for my safety. Because there is a knife hanging over my head all the time, and I will always be in danger until I sit in that position. This is not I can dodge if I want to. Do you understand?"
