Chapter 331: The Fragrance of Roses
That night, Gu Xiaofan lived in the Xiuyun Pavilion of the Lin Yi people, and the Lin Yi people stood in front of the window and stayed awake all night.
The Lin Yi people can deal with the external troubles of the Imperial Palace, but if this threat comes from Qiu Zhi, who is in charge of all the secret guards and guards in the Imperial Palace, things will become extremely complicated.
Gu Xiaofan has no ability to protect herself at all now, and it is impossible for Lin Yiren to put her under his nose all the time, is this situation to force him to send Gu Xiaofan back to Yanxu?
Speech ...... Lin Yiren's gaze fell on Gu Xiaofan's thin little face...... She didn't even want to remember Xun anymore, how could she face the words and the chaotic and cruel past again.
Gu Xiaofan on the bed, there were still some tears in the corners of her eyes, she was full of expectations, hoping that he would be able to eat the chestnut cake she made, but in the end, everything always made people feel sentimental, it seemed that fate was destined, he would pass by her, again and again.
"Little Fan ......" Lin Yiren approached the bed and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Gu Xiaofan's eyes with his fingertips.
What should he do, what should he do with her?
"Daddy. Gu Xiaofan turned over, and his fingers were slightly raised.
Lin Yiren was overjoyed, and leaned over to hold Gu Xiaofan's hand, "Little fan, what did you say?"
Gu Xiao pursed his lips, and a few muffled sounds came out of his mouth, and then there was no movement. The corners of Lin Yiren's lips couldn't help but raise a smile, saying this, she was still able to speak.
"Is the prince asleep?" Xuan Niang's voice came from outside the pavilion.
"Not yet," the maid of Xiu Yu Pavilion opened the door gently, "Miss Gu has just slept upstairs, and the prince said that she will close her eyes on the soft couch in the outhouse for a while, and tomorrow she will send someone to replace the soft couch with a sandalwood frame bed." ”
"How can the prince eat after sleeping on a soft couch all night. Xuan Niang walked into the house with a porcelain plate.
The slave maid also said the same, but the prince didn't want to disturb the Gu girl, saying that he was reluctant to settle tonight. ”
Xuanniang sighed, raised her eyes and looked upstairs, and put the porcelain plate on the desk, "This is the chestnut cake made by Miss Gu herself, the prince has eaten little today, if he hasn't slept yet, go and ask the prince if he has an appetite." ”
"Yes. The maid picked up the porcelain plate, walked up the stairs lightly, stood outside the door and said, "Lord, Xuanniang sent the chestnut cake made by Miss Gu herself, do you want to taste it?"
"Come in. Lin Yiren was about to get up, but found that he couldn't pull his hand out of Gu Xiaofan's hand.
The maidservant pushed open the door, put down the porcelain plate, and poured tea for Lin Yiren before retreating.
Hearing the sound of the door closing downstairs, a trace of deep meaning flashed in Lin Yiren's eyes...... Xuanniang knew Qiu Zhi's plan, and she even knew that the porcelain plate in Gu Xiaofan's hand had been broken, so she specially sent another plate of chestnut cakes.
Outside the house, the snow was getting heavier and heavier, and listening to the rustling sound of snowflakes falling on the window lattice, Lin Yiren couldn't help but rub his eyebrows. Qiu Zhi, Xuan Niang, who else in King Xuan's Mansion will attack Gu Xiaofan? His little fan, what should he do with her?
Gu Xiaofan tightly held Lin Yiren's hand, and this unconscious action made Lin Yiren's heart set off a wave of waves.
It was his mother who personally created the tragic tragedy of Ye Fusheng, An Caiyi, and Gu Xiaofan's family of three, but now, he seems to have become Gu Xiaofan's only support. She trusts him and attaches to him, just as she trusted and attached to Yanxu in the past, but he can't protect her for life, because staying away is the only way to protect her.
The next day, the morning light was faint, and the room was particularly bright under the reflection of the snow. Lin Yiren dimly felt a small hand groping between his eyebrows and eyes, knowing that it was Gu Xiaofan who got up first, so he simply closed his eyes and didn't speak.
After a while, Gu Xiaofan got a comb out of nowhere, and gently combed it over and over again along Lin Yiren's hair, humming something softly in his mouth.
Lin Yiren only felt that the song was a little familiar, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly remembered that when he was in Yifan, Gu Xiaofan had used his silver taels to buy a lot of various fruits, and in order to transport those fruits back to the East Fence Thatched Cottage, Gu Xiaofan, who thought that the carriage was too expensive, ran to hire a crooked broken donkey cart, and on the way back, Gu Xiaofan lay on the donkey cart and hummed the song at hand.
He remembered that day, Gu Xiaofan's eyebrows crooked into his ear and said, "Brother Shen, since the current identity is Shen Dongli, you should have the posture of a common person." ”
Sandalwood comb, comb again, Gu Xiaofan's warm breath gently brushed Lin Yiren's ears, Lin Yiren still closed his eyes, and gently held Gu Xiaofan's hand.
"Little fan, don't forget Brother Shen, even if you won't see Brother Shen again in the future, don't forget, okay?"
There was silence in the pavilion, and Gu Xiaofan's singing stopped.
Lin Yi's heart was filled with bitterness, she was rarely a little happy, but she was interrupted by him, it was really a big surprise for him.
Unexpectedly, a shallow scent of rose flowers suddenly wafted from the tip of his nose, and then, a soft lip pecked lightly on Lin Yiren's cheek.
Lin Yiren opened his starry eyes in amazement.
The childish face with the eyebrows held his cheeks, looking at him quietly, his skin was like spring snow, his lips were like begonias, his butterfly wings were flashing, and his eyes were like springs, like buds with dew after the rain, with indescribable fragrance and irresistible temptation.
"Little fan......" Lin Yiren suddenly felt a dry mouth.
A delicate chestnut cake was held up in front of Lin Yiren's eyes.
Lin Yiren's face was hot, and he felt as if he was riding the crooked and twisted broken donkey cart again, and facing the ignorant Gu Xiaofan was more embarrassing to him than facing the hot eyes of everyone in the market. Gu Xiaofan didn't know the evil thoughts in Lin Yiren's heart, and the soft lips made him just want to have her, for the rest of his life, regardless of it.
In order to hide his gaffe, Lin Yiren immediately got up and pushed open the window. The heavy snow overnight shrouded Xiao'an Castle in silver, and the pink makeup and jade masonry were beautiful as far as the eye could see.
A gust of cold wind blew in his face, and Lin Yiren took a deep breath. The darkness lurking under the snow, waiting for an opportunity anytime and anywhere, how could he be impulsive, at such a critical juncture, his children are long, because of small losses.
"Little fan," Lin Yiren's voice returned to its former calm, "Today, Brother Shen is going to go to Jiuxuan Peak with the emperor to worship the emperor, you have been staying in the house for a few days, and when Brother Shen comes back, your illness will have a chance to be cured." ”
Behind Lin Yiren, Gu Xiaofan stretched out his tongue, licked the chestnut cake gently, and put the chestnut cake back into the porcelain plate.
Jiuxuan Peak, about five or six hours away from Xiao'an, before setting off, Lin Yiren called Qi Jing and Jiang Nuo into Langfeng Pavilion.
After a while, a voice of astonishment came from Langfeng Pavilion, "Don't let anyone get close to Miss Gu? Jiang Nuo and I are both big men, so who will take care of Miss Gu's diet and daily life these days?"
"You go to Tianxiang Pavilion and take Xiao Huan into the house. Lin Yidao, "Remember to tell Xuan Niang that anything to eat for Xiao Fan must be tasted by the two of you and Xiao Huan first, and tell Manager Qiu that if there is anything wrong with Xiao Fan, King Xuan's Mansion will have nothing to do with him from now on." ”
"Lord Wang, how could you even guard against Manager Qiu and Xuan Niang!" Jiang Nuo's eyes widened.
"It's not to prevent them from being bad for me, it's to prevent them from attacking the small fan. Lin Yiren shook his head, "Just your pig brain, if Xinzhou is good now, I won't entrust the little fan to you." ”
"What's wrong with me?" Jiang Nuo said, twisting his neck, "I at least have more effort than Qi Jing." ”
"With your kung fu, do you think you can deal with Manager Qiu, or Zong Li?" Qi Jing said mockingly.
"Yes, I also feel strange, the prince knows that you and I can't beat Manager Qiu at all, why do you still arrange this errand for the two of us. Jiang Nuo wondered.
