After Ling Qi left, Mo Lan explained to Zheng'er, and then left the courtyard and prepared to find Si Yunyin.

Along the way, as Ling Qi said, there were hidden secret guards everywhere, which made Mo Lan couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Si Yunyin, is this kid doing such a big deal? I'm afraid that with the current defense system of the Min Palace, even a fly that wants to make trouble can't fly in!

Stepping into the courtyard of Qinxuan Pavilion, Mo Lan didn't have to think about it, and went directly towards the study, and from a distance, he saw that the door of the study was wide open.

When he got closer, he found that the man in white was not writing in front of the desk as usual, but staring at a piece of rice paper on the table, and the still figure revealed a faint loneliness.

Mo Lan couldn't help but lighten her steps, for some reason, she couldn't bear to disturb the silence of this moment.

The next moment, I saw Si Yunyin raise his head and look towards the door, his eyes were deep, as if the mountains and rivers in the world had fallen there, turning into a mist that would not disperse all year round.

"Woke up?"

Si Yunyin's voice was faint, with a hint of muffle.

There was no hint of ridicule in his words, but it made Mo Lan decisively embarrassed.

After all, a full day's sleep isn't a glamorous thing to say. But the question is, how did this kid know the way? Didn't Ling Qi say that he entered the palace early in the morning, and after coming back in the afternoon, he stayed in Qinxuan Pavilion and never went out again?

Could it be that some guy with a long tongue is out there to promote her?

Mo Lan was secretly thinking about some candidates with longer tongues, and heard Si Yunyin's voice ringing quietly in his ears.

"This king has been waiting for you."

Mo Lan was a little surprised, what are you waiting for her to do? She walked into the study with her feet lifted and asked curiously, "How do you know that I will come to you?" ”

Si Yunyin didn't speak, Mo Lan couldn't help but feel a little bored and pursed her lips, standing aside and looking at the furnishings of the study somewhat casually.

After a moment of silence, Si Yunyin suddenly spoke, "You come here." ”

The three words are extremely light, with inexplicable demagogy.

Mo Lan raised her eyebrows and slowly walked to him, and then saw a half-unfolded scroll on the desk, depicting a young and beautiful woman.

The painting scroll itself is a little old-colored, but the gentle and moving demeanor of the woman in the painting is so clear and clear, and there is a vague resemblance between her eyebrows and Si Yunyin.

"This is ......," Mo Lan said with a slight hesitation.

"It's the king's mother."

Si Yunyin's words confirmed Mo Lan's conjecture, but his next sentence also made her heart sink slightly.

"It's just that this king has never seen her......"

Pursing his lips slightly, Mo Lan didn't know how to comfort him, so he only said lightly: "You look very similar to her." ”

Si Yunyin hooked his lips and pulled out a vague smile: "Father Emperor also said so." He said that only three points of my appearance came from the heavenly family, and the remaining seven points were all from my mother. So, every time he saw me, he was always conflicted. On the one hand, I feel relieved, but on the other hand, I am in pain. ”

Mo Lan didn't know much about the relationship between their father and son, and only vaguely felt that there must be an unspeakable past in it, so he said faintly: "He must love your mother very much." ”

"Love?" Si Yunyin asked rhetorically, his tone seemed to be a little sarcastic, "Maybe, but how long can the emperor's love last?" It is often heavy and short. But it is this heavy and short-term love, but sometimes it will harm people for a lifetime. ”

Mo Lan raised her eyes in surprise, a little unsure of what he meant.

"Everyone says that the king's mother died in childbirth eighteen years ago, but the king doesn't believe it." Si Yunyin spoke slowly, her deep eyes met the dark blue eyes, which inexplicably made her feel a little chilled.

"This king secretly visited for a long time, and found that the things of the year were not as simple as they seemed, and this king also wanted to believe that the death of his mother was just an accident, but there were too many things for this king to believe, and this king wanted to believe in the love of an emperor, but the result was that his love was too weak to support him to protect a person he wanted to protect."

Mo Lan's mood was a little heavy, she didn't know about these things, and she didn't have the right to speak. But since ancient times, such things have been common in the imperial city.

Sighing, she said helplessly: "Perhaps, being in the royal family is destined to never be simple and pure in this life. ”

"You're right, this is the sorrow of the royal people." Si Yunyin chuckled slightly mockingly, "So in the past, even if this king was indifferent, he still couldn't reassure others after all." This king never wants to fight for anything, but others are still afraid of the existence of this king. In this case, this king doesn't have to worry about anything anymore, just let them be jealous of it thoroughly. ”

Mo Lan opened her lips, what he meant by this was ......

Si Yunyin took her surprised look in her eyes, but didn't say anything clearly, just hooked her lips lightly, and suddenly changed the topic: "The story you made up today is very good, so that this king doesn't have to bother to solve those courtiers, but it saves this king a lot of effort." ”

"That's nature." Speaking of this, Mo Lan looked proud, and was not surprised that he knew the Tao so quickly, "Since I have made such a great effort, shouldn't the prince express his sincere gratitude?" ”

"This king remembers, you still owe this king a gambling contract." Si Yunyin glanced at her and threw down a sentence lightly, "In this way, it can be regarded as a tie, and we don't owe each other." ”

"Pull it off, pull it off." Mo Lan shrugged, not expecting to get anything out of him. Suddenly remembered the purpose of his coming, and continued, "By the way, I came to ask you something. ”

"This king knows what you want to ask now." Si Yunyin seemed to see through her thoughts, and said lightly, "This king can tell you that the reason why this king wants to enter the court is for two reasons. One is to find out the death of the mother concubine and punish all the people who should be punished. ”

Mo Lan couldn't help but tremble.

Punish all those who deserve to be punished!

Although he said this very lightly, the meaning is self-evident. The death of Concubine Ru must have involved a lot back then, but I am afraid that the day the truth is revealed will be the time when the bloody storm of the imperial city comes!

"And what about the other reason?" Biting her lip, Mo Lan asked with a slight frown.

Si Yunyin was silent for a moment when he heard this, and then suddenly smiled softly. The smile was a little lazy and charming, just like a layer of sparkling on the clear water of the blue lake, dazzling, bright, and a little trance-like dark blue eyes.

"Book Molan, if this king says...... It's for you, how should you? ”

Mo Lan shook, like five thunderbolts, and froze in place in an instant!
