"Empress Youlan, Qingyun knows that you shouldn't be called that, but now that I have to do it, please forgive me for offending!"

Duanmu Qingyun said, after glancing at Baili Xiangxue, he bowed deeply to Gu Youlan again: "Qingyun wants to invite you and the Great Elder to follow me into the palace, my father has been seriously ill for many days and has not been cured, I know that you are a five-grade senior alchemist, so please save your father's life, I hereby promise that as long as his old man improves a little, Qingyun will definitely conclude a century-old friendship with your country!" ”

Stretching out her plain white hand, Gu Youlan gently held up Duanmu Qingyun, who was bent down half of her waist: "His Royal Highness the Prince, it's important to save your father, let's go to the palace first!" ”

Gu Youlan knew in her heart that what she was waiting for was Duanmu Qingyun's promise, although this promise may not be able to be fulfilled in its current form, but she was confident that she could upgrade this promise and realize it without hindrance.

The breeze at the end of August, Xi Xi was very comfortable blowing on his body, but Gu Youlan and the others, who had just walked to the gate of the palace, felt the cold wind, and the rows of soldiers surrounded the three outer floors of the palace with awe-inspiring dignity.

Needless to say, these soldiers were all Duanmu Qinghe's people, not to mention what their purpose was here.

For Gu Youlan, who has experienced the changes in the palace of a hundred miles and assisted Gongxi Ziyu in seizing power, this battle really can't arouse her interest, hooking the corners of her lips, raising her eyebrows, and swaggering towards the palace gate.

"Stop, who's coming?" Before Gu Youlan could walk to the door, the leading soldier immediately drew his saber and asked with wide eyes.

"Presumptuous, who would dare to stop this prince here?"

When the soldiers who followed saw that it was Duanmu Qingyun, they put down their raised sabers again, but the leading soldier squinted his eyes with disdain, and said solemnly: "I'm sorry, His Royal Highness the Prince, I am here to guard at the will of the second prince, and no one is allowed to enter the palace without the order of the second prince!" ”

"What? This prince is the prison country, there is no will of Lone, you will surround the palace with heavy troops...... Could it be that Duanmu Qinghe wants to force the palace to rebel? ”

"Hehe, His Royal Highness the Prince, the villain is just a small gatekeeper general, and the duty of a soldier is to carry out orders, please don't be embarrassed by the prince!" After that, he slapped two more slaps, and in an instant, another team of soldiers came, blocking the water around the palace gate, and even surrounding Duanmu Qingyun in the middle.

However, when the leading generals and the prince were obstructing, no one noticed when the black-clothed man who was walking in front of the prince disappeared.

At this time, Gu Youlan had already arrived on the roof of the old emperor's bedroom through several consecutive teleportations, and Yan was holding the real Duanmu Qingyun and had been waiting here for a long time.

"Girl, has you settled down at the gate of the palace?" Yan was always evil and lazy, even if he was sitting on the roof at the moment, and there were many soldiers guarding him, he still couldn't forget it, and showed his most handsome and unrestrained side to his little girl.

"Sassy bag!" Gu Youlan glanced at Yan, and muttered quietly in her mouth, although Duanmu Qingyun didn't hear anything, but Yan, who was deaf and clear-eyed, and had great powers, still heard it very clearly.

The cheap raised his eyebrows, Yan not only did not get angry, but smiled, rubbing his smooth chin and continued to tease: "The deity knows that there is nothing that my girl can't handle!" ”

Rolling Yan's eyes, Gu Youlan looked at Duanmu Qingyun and said with a straight face: "Prince Qingyun, everything started according to our plan, are you ready?" ”

Duanmu Qingyun nodded with a heavy heart, and a trace of sorrow stared at the bottom of his eyes: "Although I have predicted today's events a long time ago, I didn't expect Qinghe to ...... Still can't wait! ”

Gu Youlan sighed lightly, and looked at the full moon on the lacquer sky thoughtfully, and her voice was cold: "This is the royal family, since ancient times, in order to compete for imperial power, killing father and mother, and brothers have been fighting against the wall, it has long been common, these tricks of Duanmu Qinghe, I have seen more than one or two!" ”

Hearing Gu Youlan's words, Duanmu Qingyun raised his head suddenly, three points of feeling, two points of the same fate, and an incomprehensible pain, which made him have to face Gu Youlan a little more at this moment.

Ignoring Duanmu Qingyun's scrutinizing gaze, Gu Youlan looked at Yan and nodded, and before Duanmu Qingyun could turn around, Gu Youlan took out a jasper flute from her arms and blew it up.

This flute is the ancient artifact jasper nine dragon flute.

Since taking back this jasper flute in the hands of the mermaid princess Joyna, Gu Youlan has never really used it, a trace of coolness, a trace of memories that once belonged to her slowly lingered in her heart.

"Yu'er, today is your birthday, Father God gave you this jasper flute, do you like it?" In the Nine Clouds Palace, the main god Yahuang held an emerald green flute, looking at His Royal Highness's beloved daughter with a smile, and his voice was soft and full of love.

"Father, are you finally willing to give this jasper flute to Yu'er today?" A stunning woman in a nine-colored dragon feather dress looked at Yahuang who was sitting on the top and said clearly.

"You child, I didn't give it to you because you were still young, but now you are 100,000 years old and a big girl, so Father gave it to you as a gift for adulthood!" Yahuang said unhurriedly, although there was a hint of reproach in his eyes, but the strong meaning of loving his daughter couldn't help but emanate.

"Hehe, I know that my father loves Yu'er the most, and that Yu'er will be disrespectful!" The woman's words fell, and she walked respectfully in front of Yahuang, took the jasper flute with both hands, her eyes were full of love, and she immediately couldn't help but put it to her mouth and blew it with a whin.

The sound of the flute is euphemistic, like crying, sometimes high, sometimes low, as if whispering something, and it seems that in this telling, there is an infinite dream hidden.

Time flies, memories flow......

After a while, the soldiers surrounding the dormitory were all smiling, plopping, and lying on the ground and falling asleep deeply.

"Let's go!" Yan, a simple word, immediately made the three Gu Youlan on the roof take action one after another.

Entering the emperor's dormitory, which was full of the smell of thick soup and medicine, there were sleeping soldiers and a few older imperial doctors all around, and after turning around, he didn't find the figure of Duanmu Qinghe, Gu Youlan couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Duanmu Qingyun, can you see the second prince?" ”

At this moment, Duanmu Qingyun, who had already rushed to the front of the dragon couch, quickly turned his head: "What, isn't there him here?" ”

Feeling bad in her heart, Gu Youlan immediately said: "We were fooled!" ”

"Don't worry, girl, not really!" Yan, pacing slowly with his hands behind his back, looked at the dragon couch thoughtfully.

"Great Elder, what do you mean by that?" Duanmu Qingyun rubbed his hands anxiously, full of uneasiness.

"Prince Qingyun, you better see if it's your father who is lying on the dragon couch first!" Yan leisurely paced to the dragon couch and gently patted Duanmu Qingyun's shoulder.

Duanmu Qingyun looked at Yan with a puzzled expression, nodded helplessly, and hurriedly looked at the bright yellow dragon couch.

At this time, there was a yellow-faced and thin old man lying on the dragon couch, with deeply sunken eyes and high raised cheekbones, tightly wrinkled eyebrows and slightly pursed thin lips, who else could it be if it wasn't the old emperor?

Duanmu Qingyun looked at his father, obviously a little thinner than when he saw him two days ago, and tears fell down: "Father, the son has come to see you, open your eyes and take a look at the son, okay?" ”

After that, Duanmu Qingyun knelt in front of the dragon couch with a puff, and his grief made his body tremble slightly.

"Prince Qingyun, are you sure this person is your father?" Yan still said casually, as if the old emperor lying on the bed and dying was a cat and a dog on the side of the road.

"Of course it is, my father has loved me for so many years, I don't say that I accompany me every day and serve every day, it's not an exaggeration!" Although Duanmu Qingyun was a little displeased, he also knew that the Great Elder of Dongfang Mansion had no malicious intent.

"Well, it's good if you're sure, otherwise, my girl has wasted such a valuable pill, in case she saves the wrong person, how can it be good?" Yan continued to speak indifferently, not caring whether his words would hurt Duanmu Qingyun's heart of a great filial son.

When Duanmu Qingyun heard this, his already pale face was instantly bloodless: "Great Elder, I can be sure!" ”

"Yes!" Yan nodded, and then whispered to Gu Youlan, who seemed to be watching a play: "Girl, time is pressing, you should hurry up and treat it!" ”

After that, he threw his wide sleeved robe, floated to the chair beside him, and took out a blue and white porcelain glazed kettle and two cups of the same color out of nowhere, and cooked tea by himself.

Looking at Yan like this, Gu Youlan sighed with a long sigh on her forehead full of black lines, and Duanmu Qingyun was even more angry, but because she had a request for others, she had to forcibly suppress her anger.

At this time, Gu Youlan, who had already walked to the bedside, was still thinking about what Fang Caiyan said, although Yan's words were a little unsatisfactory, they did belong to his usual style. But Gu Youlan knows that Yan, who has always been nosy, will never say meaningless words, and will never be untargeted.

Gu Youlan thought about it for a moment, and seemed to have an answer, so she immediately grabbed the arm of the old emperor on the bed, and slowly felt his pulse.

I have to say that the two princes of Duanmu Country are very smart, because on the road of competing for imperial power, they first chose to cooperate with Gu Youlan.

But Duanmu Qinghe's approach was very radical, and it deeply touched Gu Youlan and Yan's bottom line, but Duanmu Qingyun was different, he chose affection, he knew how to take advantage of opportunities, and when he first met Gu Youlan, he was very smart and performed a scene of love at first sight with Baili Xiangxue.

Therefore, from the moment Duanmu Qinghe used the plaice to approach Gu Youlan, his end was doomed, but Duanmu Qingyun knew the true meaning of the four words of self-knowledge.
