He also knew for a long time that the blood flowing in his body, and the dazzling and slanderous things in his body, would be involuntarily self-contained. All the outsiders would impose on him, he had no choice, he had to bear it.

He will never forget that when he was a child, even though he was played as a concubine by the children of the noble palace, Amma's special favor for him has surpassed all. At that time, after being insulted, looking at the needlework in Eniang's hands, it seemed that he could still smell the fragrance in the air at that time. Sprinkled with the coolness of a smile.

We used to be greedy, and we all silently thought that simple and pure people would have the happy ending they wanted.

But the reality is often unsatisfactory and cruel.

At the same age, he seems to be a high emperor. Helian Yan, the name. It was the first person in Helian City's mind to fill up in the middle of every night, even waking up from a dream.

How they should understand that more tacit understanding and hostility can be measured more than just the length of time together.

In the past seven years, Helian City has been reminding himself all the time to become strong, telling him that he wants to avenge his father and restore his country. For the past seven years, he has been investigating the whereabouts of this woman all the time. But when he finally saw Chu Li on the streets of Suzhou a few days ago. But Xu Wei had already seen her first. That shows that Helian Yang already knows about this, which shows that Helian Yang has seen Chu Li.

What was he going to do?

"Jun Gong," the candle shadow flickered, and the woman's graceful steps became slower and slower.

Holding the teapot in one hand, he walked to Helian Cheng's side and stood still.

Before he raised his eyes to see people, he had already smelled a burst of fragrant aroma, which quickly lingered in his heart along his nose. The shallow mist spread away, and the body gradually indulged in the rich I don't know how many kinds of flowers and incense gases......

The dim candle light was flickering, and Helian Cheng opened his eyes vigorously and looked at the woman and said, "Ning Zhi." ”

The woman was stunned and said vaguely: "Yes, county lord." ”

"Zhi'er made you a pot of tea, it's late at night, if the county prince still wants to read, drink some weak tea."

Those eyes as bright as jewels were open and kind, like a warm light shining into Helian Cheng's heart in the cold night.

He took the teapot handed by Ning Zhi and put it aside.

"It's late at night, you're thin, so let's go to bed early." Helian Cheng said in a slightly concerned tone, turned around and poured himself a cup of tea and brought it to his lips. "Well...... Sweet and suitable. Ning Zhi, your skills in making tea are getting better and better. ”

Hearing Helian Yang's praise with raised eyes, Ning Zhi smiled lightly and said: "The county prince does not dislike it, Zhi'er can always serve tea for the county prince, and after a long time, anyone who has two points of heart can make tea." ”

Helian Cheng nodded at Ning Zhi.

"You've always been so humble and kind." As he spoke, Helian Cheng turned his face again and slowly tasted tea.

He never liked to let his subordinates serve tea, not because he hated it, but he didn't like the feeling that even tea needed to be served by others. Therefore, when he was in Fuzhong, he always tasted tea by himself.

If one day he can willingly and happily watch that there is a person who can serve by his side, reading late at night, and the breeze is clear, then there is only one person, Chu Li.

To say that it was this hour, he had just let Ning Zhi out of the room, and Helian Cheng just remembered a man.

Xu Wei.

This court painter, who had never heard of it before, was named the three-rank painter of the Imperial Forest by Helian Yang just because of those three hundred beautiful pictures. Even this trip out of the palace to Suzhou was with Xu Wei.

It can be seen that this Xu Wei knows not a little bit about Chu Li.

The next morning.

Helian Cheng entered the palace early.

He didn't go to the Jinluan Palace to reply to Helian Yang's summons first, but first went to the Royal Forest Painting Academy, he wanted to see Xu Wei.

Although when he was in Suzhou, he had already met him once.

As soon as he walked into the painting academy, Helian Cheng raised his eyes and saw the little guy who had stopped Chu Li's sedan chair with both hands on the streets of Suzhou a few days ago.

Actually, it's not familiar.

It seems that I often go in and out of the palace like this, but when I see it today, I find it more familiar, but I can't name it, and the appearance is surprisingly beautiful and clean.

Helian Cheng waved his sleeves and stepped forward to greet him: "You." ”

"I ...... Me? Yan Yanhua was stunned for a moment, stood in place with wide eyes, and pointed his index finger to his mouth and asked.

No matter how naughty and stubborn she is, she should always know that it was Helian Cheng, who had made great achievements in the war of the Nanbang Kingdom, that is, she almost often dressed up in this dress to swagger in the palace, and the people she saw except Xu Wei, who painted with peace of mind in the painting academy the most, often entered the palace to meet the emperor's Helian City.

"It's you, come here." Helian Cheng's eyes flashed with a brilliance that was different from usual, and he greeted with one hand.

This makes the already somewhat naïve, not afraid of tigers and a little silly Yan Yan's painting a little unclear.

But she still cautiously looked at the outfit around her, well, there shouldn't be anything to be found. A dignified Muyang county duke, there will never be too much trouble to find a little painter.

"I don't know what happened to the Duke of Muyang looking for Weichen?" Yan Yanhua opened his mouth and asked, respectful.

She is now dressed like a little painter in the court, although her father's official uniform is a little loose, but because she is often dressed like this, she is still calm and relaxed in the face of Helian City.

The corners of Helian Cheng's mouth raised slightly, he just felt that this person was familiar, but he couldn't name it. If you look closely, it looks like there's something strange. He looked at the familiar court painter's official uniform and said, "You are also a painter here?" Why don't I see you often? ”

In fact, Helian City often saw her, but it was just to probe the tone.

"Muyang County is busy with affairs, how can you know that Weichen is a small painting official." As he spoke, Yan Yanhua smiled and said. "Why did the prince of Muyang come to the painting institute today? Isn't it...... Did the prince of Muyang County also bring any pictures of beauties and other pictures for us to paint by Xu Wei? ”

As soon as the words fell, Xu Wei rushed from behind.

Helian Cheng's smile reflected a thousand brightness.

"It's not true, it's just that this time I'm here to see this three-grade painter of the Imperial Forest who is praised by the emperor." Helian Cheng borrowed the side of Yan Yan's painting and walked in front of Xu Wei.

When I walked in, I saw that it was the majestic Muyang County Prince. Xu Wei hurriedly saluted Helian City: "Muyang County Duke has praised it, please ask the county prince to sit inside." ”
