The Imperial Study.

Dongfang Yunxiang picked up the pen to write, I didn't know what to think, and a soft mist appeared in his eyes.

This was the first time he had written to her in person, and after seeing the letter, would she come in person, and would he ever see her cold and arrogant face again?

He didn't worry about letting Xiao Mo go to the Holy Palace alone, so he had to inform her of this, hoping that it wouldn't be too late.

In his mind, the scene of the first meeting resurfaced again, and the amazement and shock at that glance will never be forgotten in his life. He can lightly depict her graceful outline and her stunning face, but it is difficult to describe the radiance and elegance of the moment when she raises her eyes.

Suddenly, I began to miss her.

I don't know how long he was distracted, until the incense in front of the desk was about to burn, he came back to his senses, bowed his head, and continued to write. Subsequently, the pen is closed.

"Someone, send the letter out quickly!"

A guard hurriedly ran into the imperial study, and while receiving the letter, he reported: "Your Majesty, just now came to report at the gate of the palace, Elder Fu led the little prince and his party to leave the palace, saying that they would rush to the holy palace immediately. ”

"What?" Dongfang Yunxiang was startled, stood up suddenly, and rushed out of the imperial study like a gust of wind.

Outside the palace gate, a spacious and gorgeous carriage walked slowly, and the carriage contained four children, who were the outstanding prodigies selected by the Holy Child Election.

In addition to Yun Xiaomo, Xuanyuan Jian'er and Song Xiu, there is another person who is really the best prodigy selected from the Holy Boy Election, he is the little prince of Ximu Kingdom, Ximen Xuanfeng.

Four children with very different personalities sit in the same carriage, and the atmosphere is very strange.

Song Xiu once lost to Yun Xiaomo in a martial arts competition, and he had a grudge against him, how could he give him a good look? From the time he got into the carriage, he alone seized the position in the middle of the carriage, his legs were wide open, and his sitting posture was straight, as if he was majestic and domineering.

On his left side, there were Yun Xiaomo and Xuanyuan Jian'er, Yun Xiaomo lowered his head and teased Xiaobai, turning a blind eye to Song Xiu's domineering and hostile attitude.

Xuanyuan sat there quietly, noble and elegant, occasionally exchanging a few words with Yun Xiaomo, but she was indifferent and alienated from the other two.

Among them, the most uninspired, is none other than Ximen Xuanfeng, he himself has a withdrawn temperament, does not like words, from beginning to end is an expressionless look, as if someone else owes him a debt, the only thing close to him is a short blade in his hand, he carries it with him, and the sword does not leave his hand.

The atmosphere in the carriage was too dull, and Xuanyuan tried to talk to Yun Xiaomo.

"Xiaomo, let's leave like this, will we be in a hurry? I haven't had time to write a letter to my father to report my safety. ”

"I didn't say goodbye to Uncle Xiang either, if Uncle Xiang knew that I was gone, he would be very anxious. ”

"Ignorance!" Song Xiu glanced at the two of them coldly, and couldn't help but speak, "You are already people from the Holy Palace, so naturally you have to listen to the orders of the Holy Palace. Now that the palace master is urgently calling us back, naturally something big has happened, do you think that you are going to the Holy Palace to play at home, you can do whatever you want, and you can go wherever you want?"

Xuanyuan Yu'er's faint gaze swept over him, and said in an indifferent tone: "What do you have to be proud of? It's not like us, it's just a holy boy of the Holy Palace." What else do you have besides?"

The muscles of Song Xiu's face trembled, he was different from a few of them, even if they did not enter the Holy Palace, they each had the identity of a prince and princess, and he was actually from a civilian background, only because of his brother Song Xi's status in the Holy Palace, he received special treatment, and now his brother was killed for no reason, he lost his support in the Holy Palace, if it wasn't for the favor of the elders of the Holy Palace in the past, he might have been isolated and helpless at this moment, and became an orphan.

His eyes darkened, he didn't have any rebuttal, a faint sadness enveloped him, and the momentum on his body also subsided a little.

Xuanyuan thought he would retort fiercely, but he didn't want him to be silent, and his expression looked sad. What happened to make such an unruly person like him show such a sad look?

Yun Xiaomo raised his eyebrows, and also saw Song Xiu's expression, and suddenly sighed inexplicably in an extremely old fashion: "People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves." ”

When the words fell, he immediately ushered in three strange eyes, Yun Xiaomo looked at his nose and nose, and continued to say calmly: "People are floating in the rivers and lakes, how can they not be stabbed......"

The three of them were speechless.

At this time, behind the carriage, there was a sound of galloping horses' hooves.

Xuanyuan opened the curtain of the car window, looked out, was slightly stunned, and then pushed Yun Xiaomo: "Xiaomo, it's your Uncle Xiang who is chasing after you!"

Yun Xiaomo hurriedly looked out the window, and sure enough, he saw a snow-white horse, a person galloping with a whip, hunting in a robe, and struggling to catch up with the carriage, the person who came was none other than his Uncle Xiang.

He was overjoyed, waved his little hand behind the carriage, and shouted, "Uncle Xiang, I'm here!"

"Stop, stop, I want to see Uncle Xiang!" he directly lifted the curtain and shouted to the coachman and Elder Fu who were riding beside the carriage.

Elder Fu glanced back at Dongfang Yunxiang, who was chasing after him, his old eyes narrowed, and he saw that Dongfang Yunxiang only brought a few personal guards behind him, and there were no other honor guards. As the king of a country, traveling so rashly shows the importance of Yun Xiaomo to him. He raised his hand and motioned for the carriage to stop, waiting for the people behind him to catch up.

The pegasus was getting closer and closer, Dongfang Yunxiang hurriedly pulled the reins, and when he saw Yun Xiaomo, he was standing on the carriage unharmed, and his heart was suddenly half settled.

He shot at Elder Fu with a sharp eye, and regardless of his identity as the Supreme Elder of the Holy Palace, he asked in a reprimanded manner, "Elder Fu, why did you leave in a hurry without saying hello, and took my Xiaomo with you?"

"Your Majesty has forgotten it, Xiaomo is now a person from my holy palace, and the old man suddenly received an urgent call from the palace master, and ordered the old man to immediately lead the holy boy back to the palace. It's too late to say hello to His Majesty, and he is also forced by the form, His Majesty is too trivial to ask the old man like this, is it too trivial, is His Majesty still afraid that the old man will treat Xiao Mo badly?" Elder Fu was slightly unhappy with Dongfang Yunxiang's tone of questioning.

"Is it a big fuss? If Elder Fu's child suddenly disappeared, Elder Fu wouldn't be in a hurry?" Dongfang Yunxiang's expression was fierce, and he didn't have the slightest intention of backing down, he jumped into the horse, and paced to Yun Xiaomo.

"Xiaomo, you go back with Uncle Xiang first. Uncle Xiang just ordered someone to send a letter to your mother, do you want to go to the Holy Palace, or wait for your mother to reply to the letter. You went to the Holy Palace alone, and Uncle Xiang was not at ease. ”

Yun Xiaomo pursed her lips, a little hesitant.

When Elder Fu heard this, he couldn't help but feel anxious, he had finally found a child with excellent qualifications, how could he just miss it so lightly? Who could know what his mother had in mind?

Looking at Dongfang Yunxiang's worried look, he originally wanted to refute the words, but he took them all back, his eyes flashed slightly, and he changed to a more relaxed tone: "If you are not worried about Xiaomo's safety, the old man can hereby assure you that as long as Xiaomo enters the Holy Palace, the old man will definitely do his best to protect him, otherwise, the old man will personally come to the door to ask you for guilt." In this case, Your Majesty should be relieved, right?"

"Can Elder Fu really ensure that Xiao Mo is safe and sound in the Holy Palace?" Dongfang Yunxiang carefully observed the other party's expression, not like a fake, if it was really as he said, he could ensure Xiao Mo's safety, then he would be much more relieved, after all, Elder Fu's status and prestige in the Holy Palace were still extremely high.

"The old man has a word!" Elder Fu said loudly.

Dongfang Yunxiang stared down at Yun Xiaomo, rubbed his hair, and saw that he had no intention of going back with him, he sighed helplessly, okay, just fulfill his wish.

"Xiaomo, then you have to protect yourself well, and once something happens, immediately let Xiaobai report to Uncle Xiang. If the people of the Sacred Palace dare to touch you at all, even if Uncle Xiang exerts all the strength of the whole country, he will seek justice from the Sacred Palace!" The sentence behind him deliberately accentuated the tone, making it clear that it was meant for Elder Fu, and the purpose was to clarify his attitude and ensure Xiaomo's safety.

Elder Fu's eyes flashed slightly, and he didn't say anything, but he understood it.

"Uncle Xiang, go back, Xiaomo can take care of himself. Yun Xiaomo said in a soft voice, he also has his own insistence and stubbornness, once the matter is decided, even the nine horses can't pull it back.

Dongfang Yunxiang chuckled helplessly, hugged him tightly, and under the cover of the sleeves of his robe, he quietly stuffed a piece into Yun Xiaomo's pocket, and whispered in his ear: "When there is danger, remember to use it." ”

Yun Xiaomo was stunned for a moment, and felt that there seemed to be an extra item in his pocket, he understood, and quickly nodded in response.

After reluctantly parting, the carriage continued on its way.

Leaving the capital of the Tanglin Kingdom, at noon, the carriage rested in the suburbs.

Yun Xiaomo and the others also got out of the carriage, looking for a place and sitting on the ground. Xuanyuan Jian'er sat down next to Yun Xiaomo, and asked mysteriously, "Xiaomo, what good things did your Uncle Xiang give you?"

Xuanyuan smiled slyly, and from her point of view, she happened to have a full view of the scene where Dongfang Yunxiang stuffed things into his pocket.

Yun Xiaomo looked around, and didn't hide it from her, and secretly took out something similar to a signal flare from his pocket. Uncle Xiang said that if you use it when you are in danger, it must be a good thing to save your life.

"It turned out to be a flare, your Uncle Xiang is really good to you, so thoughtful. He will definitely send many masters to protect you along the way, and once you are in danger and send a signal flare, those masters will immediately show up to save you. "Xuanyuan is very experienced, because when she left the Proud Heavenly Kingdom, her father gave her a similar flare. She also knew that there were masters around her at all times, so she could rest easy and follow Elder Fu to the Holy Palace with peace of mind.

"Of course! Uncle Xiang has always been very good to me. When it came to Uncle Xiang, Yun Xiaomo's heart was warm, he carefully put away the signal flare, if it wasn't a last resort, he wouldn't use it lightly.

While the two were whispering, suddenly there was a burst of food fragrance wafting from the forest not far away, and the tempting fragrance hooked the appetite of the group.

"It's so fragrant! where did the fragrance come from?" said Xuanyuan curiously.

Xiaobai smelled the fragrance, and immediately moved, and the small head came out of the pocket of Yun Xiaomo's waist, and looked around: "Where, where? Xiaobai is hungry." ”

Xiaobai, you are hungry all the time!

Yun Xiaomo touched his stomach, he was also a little hungry.

"Let's go over and have a look. ”

Elder Fu turned his head and sent them towards the forest, his eyebrows were slightly heavy, and he took a step and followed them.

In the midst of the lush greenery, there was an old man in gray clothes, and in front of him was a fire roasting on the fire, on which was a skinned wild boar, fat droplets of oil flowed down the fire, and the wood rattled, and the tempting fragrance became more and more intense.

The old man faced them sideways, his casually scattered silver hair covered his face, and he couldn't see his true face clearly, Yun Xiaomo looked at the old man, and a sense of familiarity arose in his heart.

It's so similar, it's so like!

There is a special emotion that desires to come out.

Yun Xiaomo involuntarily ran a few steps at his feet, stopped one step behind the old man, and shouted in his soft voice: "Crazy grandpa?" tentative inquiry, he didn't dare to be sure.

The old man's figure stiffened slightly, and then slowly looked back.

Yun Xiaomo watched him turn around, and his heart became more and more nervous.

"Crazy grandpa, is that you?"

"Little baby, do you recognize the wrong person?" The old man turned his head, and between the scattered silver hair, there was an ordinary face, and the old man's voice was deep and full of vicissitudes.

Yun Xiaomo's excited heart suddenly wilted, and his eyebrows fell slightly, quite frustrated.

It turned out that he was not a crazy grandfather, and he was happy in vain.

Xiaobai, who was buried in his pocket, jumped out at once, swirling around the fragrant roasted wild boar, and his saliva kept falling.

"Xiaobai-" Yun Xiaomo's face hated that iron could not become steel, it was really embarrassing!

Yun Xiaomo smiled stupidly at the old man, scratching his head, very embarrassed. He and Xiaobai are one, Xiaobai lost someone, that is, he lost someone, it's really embarrassing.

"Actually, it's ...... This is not usually the case. He tried to save a little image for Xiaobai.

The old man smiled kindly, without the slightest mind, looking at Yun Xiaomo's eyes was extremely soft and loving: "It's okay, anyway, the old man, I can't eat so much alone, if you want, you can eat with me." ”

"Okay, okay!" Before Yun Xiaomo could reply, Xiaobai was already so happy that he couldn't wait to immediately pounce on the wild boar, roasting and eating at the same time, how moist is it?

"Thank you, old man. Yun Xiaomo replied politely, and he was not welcome, to be honest, he was also tempted by the fragrant meat.
