Chapter 226: Hot Potato

Without waiting for Gu Qingzhi to speak, I saw Yun Fan directly take Gu Qingzhi's hand, beat her horizontally, picked her up, and strode into the carriage. After hearing Yun Fan's command again, the coachman immediately whipped up and drove away. I didn't want to delay for a moment.

Looking at the strange scene in front of him, his eyes turned to Xie Yaoguang, who was wrapped in a fox fur and huddled by the door, and saw that the other party was looking at him with a radiant expression, Ye Linchen coughed and moved a few steps towards Xie Yaoguang.

"Why did Your Highness come here at this time, but is there anything important that Yaoguang needs to deal with?" Xie Yaoguang, who couldn't understand why Ye Linchen came at this time, had some doubts in his jet-black pupils.

"Yaoyao, today is Chinese New Year's Eve. Can't I come to you if I'm fine? Extremely handsome, Ye Linchen's eyes were burning, and there was softness in his smile, "I didn't come to you today to talk about anything serious...... I just thought I hadn't seen you for a long time, so I came to take a look. ”

The sudden ambiguous words made Xie Yaoguang stunned, and even the title was so unfamiliar. After looking at Ye Linchen carefully for a while to make sure that he was not drunk, Xie Yaoguang didn't know what to say for a while.

All around you can hear the sound of fireworks and firecrackers.

Xie Yaoguang under the lamp was wearing a scarlet skirt, and against the backdrop of the snow-white fox fur, her face was like a peach blossom, which made people can't help but look a little crazy.

Ye Linchen, who came back to his senses first after a while, silently took Xie Yaoguang's hand and said warmly: "Yaoyao, don't you want to stand at the door and talk to me?" ”

"Naturally not, Your Highness, please come with me." After collecting his thoughts, Xie Yaoguang smiled and curtsied slightly.

The two walked in hand and side by side. The lights in front of the court are brilliant, the fragrance of plum blossoms spreads into the night with the wind, and the noise comes into the ears from the flower hall not far away. Looking for prestige, you can vaguely see the location of the front hall.

According to the past, Xie Yaoguang would take people from the front hall to entertain guests, but this time there were too many people in the front hall. And Ye Linchen's identity is special, which is not good for people to see. It was Xie Yaoguang who led Ye Linchen to the bluestone path on the other side and walked towards the warm pavilion where the two had been entertained before. The maid in charge of guarding the warm pavilion has been replaced with new tea, fresh fruit and pastries.

After retiring the maid, only the two of them sat opposite each other in the warm pavilion, very quiet. Knowing that Ye Linchen was not as cold as himself, Xie Yaoguang just wanted to push open the window to let out some heat, but was stopped by Ye Linchen. Seeing that the other party was staring at his wrist, Xie Yao narrowed his eyes and put his hand back under the fox fur.

"If Your Highness feels stuffy...... Just talk to me. I can't let you get hot with me, can I?" Xie Yaoguang poured the tea slowly and handed it to Ye Linchen and said, "This is the tea I boiled with the snow water of the old year, Your Highness will taste it." ”

Lowering his eyes to see Yingying, a touch of blue color is held in the palm of his hand, and the hands are particularly snow-white and delicate, as if they are carved from jade. Ye Linchen's gaze climbed up with his hand, and suddenly crashed into a pair of gentle and smiling phoenix eyes, and the black eyes of the beads were as black as if they were inlaid with black jade. Although it is not the first time I have met Xie Yaoguang, every time I see Xie Yaoguang, I always feel like I have met him for the first time.

With a chuckle and took the tea, Ye Linchen said softly: "You are interested." It's a pity that it hasn't snowed since the beginning of winter this year, otherwise I would have invited you to come over and enjoy the flowers. ”

Hearing this, Xie Yaoguang lifted his lips and smiled, but did not answer. Her eyebrows and eyes were slightly downcast, and the candlelight was on her temples, and with her movements, the eastern beads in her ears slid across the corners of her jaw, shining brightly.

"Your Highness can't break his word. Speaking of which, Your Highness came to me at this time today, but you have something to discuss? It's not like I haven't seen you for a few days, so come and see me. Xie Yaoguang teased in his words, raised his eyes and covered his lips and looked at Ye Linchen slyly. The meaning revealed in his eyes is clearly that if he says his highness, he can frame others, but he can't fool me.

The two have known each other for nearly a year, and they naturally have no scruples and suspicions with each other. At the moment, Xie Yaoguang teased calmly, Ye Linchen was not annoyed, but smiled gently, put the food box in his hand on the table, raised his chin and motioned Xie Yaoguang to open it and take a look.

Mu Luhu looked at Ye Linchen suspiciously, and saw that the other party had expectations in his eyes. Xie Yaoguang opened the lid and saw more than a dozen bright red hawthorns neatly placed on the white jade plate, wrapped in a bright layer of sugar water and embedded with a little snow white in the middle. Take a bowl and chopsticks and pick up a grain of hawthorn, take a small bite and taste the layers are blurred, the sweet and sour of the red fruit mixed with the glutinous rice ball makes people have a great appetite, and I can't help but want to taste a few more.

"The mother concubine specially asked me to bring it to Yaoyao." Ye Linchen glanced at Xie Yaoguang and smiled in his words, "If it weren't for the concubine, I wouldn't have known that you were actually the senior brother of the concubine, Mo Xun's apprentice." No wonder the mother did that to you that day. ”

When the words fell, Xie Yaoguang was slightly stunned. Although as she expected, according to Ye Linchen's temperament, she should ask Aunt Hui, but she didn't expect that Aunt Hui would lie to Linchen for herself...... Even if Aunt Hui does have some friendship with Dr. Mo.

"Thank you for having His Royal Highness Lao replace me...... I don't know what the name of this snack is?" With a smile on his head, Xie Yaoguang sat up straight and reached out and threw a piece of thick plum incense into the smoker.

Smelling the question, it happened that at this time, the plum fragrance spread out and her nose moved. Ye Linchen tilted her lips and smiled, "The mother concubine said that this dish is called Yuan Huanxi~ She said that if you have anything you want to eat in the future, just let me know and tell her that she has always been at ease in the palace." ”

Even if this is the first time Ye Linchen has seen his mother so enthusiastic about people. Although I don't know why, I still dispelled my suspicions, and I was bent on making my mother happy.

"Your Highness Lao ......" Xie Yaoguang sank his eyes to hide the confusion in his eyes, and stretched out his hand to smooth out the wrinkles on his clothes, "Congratulations to Your Highness on being promoted from the Northern Ya Forbidden Army to the Southern Ya, Your Majesty has finally discovered your value." ”

Xie Yaoguang's words were not mixed with compliments, and others felt that they were sincere compliments in their ears. But only when Ye Linchen heard the deep meaning of her words, His Majesty did not allow him to step down from the Nanya Forbidden Army, but he was afraid that he had the intention of supporting himself to resist King Shou, and the two sides were balanced, so that Emperor Li could sit back and relax.

"The crown prince is declining day by day, and I am holding two positions, but I am afraid that King Shou will come back to his senses and immediately attack me. At that time, the Nanya Forbidden Army will be like a hot potato in my hands, and there is no doubt that I will take more. I wondered if I should find an opportunity to make some mistake and let my father take back power from me. The topic gradually returned to the topic, and the expression on Ye Linchen's face gradually became solemn. In his opinion, now that he is in power, I am afraid that it has aroused the jealousy of many people.

Su Qinglin, who was originally in control of the Nanya Forbidden Army, originally traveled between all parties in the imperial court as a neutral person, and he would think of the day when his identity would be exposed. Su Qinglin fell, and the prince was still convicted because of his previous incident. The Nanya Forbidden Army has no leader, and all forces want to get a piece of the pie.
