Xiao Yu took the official document handed over by the other party, looked at it carefully and was silent, but there was a deep depression and fatigue between his eyebrows and eyes.

Chen Tingwen was rarely summoned by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in person, and this time when he heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had summoned, he was busy bathing and purifying, and changed into a bright official uniform, and came to meet him with the results of the search in the past few days.

At this time, seeing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at it very seriously, he couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart, and he didn't dare to come out.

After about a tea time, Xiao Yu put down the official document, handed it to the attendant on the side, and said, "Aiqing has worked hard these days. ”

The voice was much deeper and hoarse, different from the warm voice of the past.

Chen Tingwen frowned, glanced at the young man's pale and haggard face, and said busily: "This is the responsibility of Weichen, and I dare not say that it is hard." ”

But I couldn't help but sigh for a while, sighing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really looked very tired and worried.

Xiao Yu nodded, paused for a while, and then raised his eyes to look at the other party, examining it a few times, but the expression in his eyes changed a little.

"Aiqing hasn't rested well these days? I see that your face is very tired, isn't there something wrong with you? The young man asked softly, a look of concern in his eyes.

Chen Tingwen's face stiffened, and he hurriedly lowered his head and confessed: "Weichen lost his honor in front of His Highness, and I hope His Highness will forgive his sins." ”

"Where the responsibility lies, I dare not say that it is difficult. Xu is there some trivial matters at home these days, which has made Weichen a little tired, and I ask Your Highness for forgiveness. ”

Chen Tingwen wiped the beads of sweat on his head and reluctantly found a reason.

You can't tell him yes...... Lingering with the singer every day, for the sake of beauty...... It's just that he had burned incense and bathed before meeting His Royal Highness the Prince, but he was still seen embarrassed, which really made him embarrassed.

Xiao Yu put down the teacup thoughtfully, looked at the other party a few times quietly, and said slowly: "It's a private matter at home, but it's okay, but Aiqing must take care of her body." Why don't I ask Imperial Doctor Zhang to go with Aiqing's house, give Aiqing a detailed consultation, and treat him if he is sick, so that he can ask for peace of mind if he has nothing to do. ”

For His Royal Highness the Prince's kindness, Chen Tingwen did not dare to refuse, so he had to kowtow again and again to thank him, and then wiped the sweat on his forehead and retreated.

Xiao Yu didn't say a word, just waiting for the other party's figure to disappear outside the door, the smile on his face faded little by little, leaving only a bitter and tired face.

The attendant changed into a new cup of tea and placed it lightly in front of the young man, but the young man did not hear it, and only stared at the sky outside the door in a daze, not knowing where his thoughts were taken by the flowing clouds on the heavenly dome.

He sat in silence for a long time, until the curling heat of the new tea melted into the slightly cold air, and then he drank the cold tea, which was like well water.

Then he got up and changed into a set of civilian clothes, and rode all the way away.

But he stopped in front of a private house.

The plaque of the word "Meng Zhai" is still hanging upright and brightly above, but somehow, Xiao Yu feels that a layer of dust has fallen on it, so that he can't help but let people wipe the plaque of the wandering dragon over and over again.

He shook his head, took a key from his bosom, carefully unlocked it, pushed the door open, and walked in.

However, at the moment of pushing open the door, his movements were a little hesitant, as if he sensed that his trespassing behavior was inappropriate, and his steps paused slightly.

Unfortunately, the gate opened, and the sound of "squeaking" fanning suddenly sounded in the empty courtyard, and it returned to calm, and it seemed that the whole courtyard was quiet, so quiet that it seemed that he could hear the sound of his breathing alone.

No one came forward to stop him, or to meet him.

Xiao Yu's expression darkened for a moment, and he laughed at himself again for a while.

At that time, a breeze blew, blowing off a green bamboo leaf, and swirling and falling at Xiao Yu's feet.

Xiao Yu stared at the bamboo leaf for a moment, and then moved his gaze to the lush new bamboo beside him.

Winter goes to spring, and the bamboo that has been carefully cared for is also growing well, and they are scrambling to stand up and run towards the blue sky, regardless of who went and who came in this court.

So ruthless, yet so comfortable.

Xiao Yu stretched out his hand and stroked a bamboo branch that leaned out, and his movements were indescribably gentle.

Li Qing, who was following behind him from afar, saw this scene, sighed silently, walked away, and quietly closed the door, while he quietly stayed outside the Meng Mansion.

He knew in his heart that in the past few days, no matter how busy the master was in the political disputes and how anxious he was to find Dr. Meng, he would always take some time to wait for the empty Meng Mansion for a while.

This is the work of the whole day, and if it is forbidden to the sunset palace, it is absolutely impossible to go back.

He was a guard, and he couldn't persuade him, so he had to stay here honestly. If this can make the master feel better.

Xiao Yu put down the branches and leaves in his hand, as if he remembered something, and a very faint smile appeared on his lips.

The boy seems to be very fond of bamboo. Whether it was the first meeting in Cuiwei Forest Garden that day, or the many contacts with the teenager later, the teenager suddenly applied blue eyes to the scenery of bamboo.

I heard Luo Yun say that it was because Mr. especially liked to use bamboo flutes.

I have also seen it in a trance, and the young man will always carry a delicate bamboo flute, which is exquisitely made and ingenious, and it is more exquisite than that made by the craftsmen in the palace.

It's a pity that he never had the privilege of listening to a young man's song.

Thinking of this, the smile on Xiao Yu's lips suddenly disappeared again, and it turned into a sour meaning.

If you don't see a teenager again in this life......

Xiao Yu was suddenly startled, hurriedly suppressed this too shocking thought, and shook his head again and again.

No, it's impossible, Heng'er is endowed with extraordinary endowments, and nothing will happen!

However, despite all his efforts to convince himself, he could not help but think of what he saw that day.

Calling the door outside the door, he waited for two days and still did not move, worried that the young man would be abnormal and bloodthirsty again, so he had to ask Li Qing to break in.

But I saw a mess.

No one in the house answered, but there were dried blood stains on the ground in the room, and it was dark and exuding a desperate atmosphere.

Tables and chairs were overturned to the floor, the smoker, which was always fragrant, was sprinkled with soot, and the bedding on the bed was a mess.

But the figure of the teenager was nowhere to be found.

Xiao Yu closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths, finally unwilling to recall that day.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a sound of footsteps from behind.

Li Qing should not come to disturb him, and there will never be a second person in Meng's house.

Thinking like this, Xiao Yu's heart palpitated, and he subconsciously turned to look, but he was stunned in place.

His throat rolled with difficulty, and his fist-clenched hand trembled slightly.

It was a slender and slender back, dressed in a white shirt lightly wrapped, with green silk hanging down, and his gait was still so calm and indifferent when he walked.

Just as he had gazed at a thousand times.

"Heng'er......" he exhaled irrepressibly, and there was a hoarse voice in his voice that he could hardly ignore.

The boy turned slowly.

Xiao Yu heard his own heartbeat like a drum. It was as if the body preceded consciousness, and when he came back to his senses, he was already standing in front of the young man.

He subconsciously reached out to hold the boy's arm, but the tentacles were cold.

The wind whistled between his fingers, and he clenched his fingers, but only touched his own trembling bones.

The emotions that were forced in the bottom of my heart all rushed out at this moment, and tears couldn't help but flow out of the young man's eyes, and they fell to the ground with a "snap".

"Heng'er......" he called involuntarily.

The boy never spoke, but stood there quietly, unable to grasp or touch, with an indifferent look between his eyebrows, as if nothing could be seen in his eyes.

It's like the boy decisively disappeared from his sight this time, leaving no clue for him.

Xiao Yu only felt as if he was frozen, and he couldn't move it anymore, so he could only look at the young man in a daze, begging in his heart even if he could give him a word.

I don't know how long it took, but I finally saw the young man's thin lips move slightly, and his voice was still so clear, but the words he spit out made him frightened.

"You shouldn't be here." The boy said word by word.

My throat felt like it was blocked, and my throat hurt hard, and I couldn't tell what I wanted to ask.

He saw with his own eyes that the boy turned away without mercy.

His eyes were slightly darkened, and Xiao Yu seemed to use all his strength to grab the bamboo branch on his side and prevent him from falling to the ground.

"Heng'er." He whispered again. This time, I didn't expect any response from the boy.

In the end, he missed himself too much, so that there was a phantom of a young man.

But why is it so ruthless even if it is a phantom......

"You wait, I'll be back." The boy's voice sounded again, but this time he froze in place.

What do you say......

As soon as he wanted to ask, he clearly saw that the young man's inky eyes were full of melancholy.

It was very light, but it was so thick that it seemed to overflow and drown him.

He finally stood still, watching the boy disappear in front of him step by step.

Then he woke up with a long sigh.

For some reason, the vast despair seemed to dissipate a little, and a small hope burst out from the bottom of his heart, creeping up little by little, gradually filling his eroded courage.

I'll get you back.

He silently made a promise. 166 Reading Network
