"Hiccup~ Sister Ling, the breakfast in King Chen's Mansion is so delicious!"

Baili Qinglan burped, and then touched her stomach, probably because she had eaten too much, and had to get up from her seat, but her eyes still didn't leave the plate of golden snacks on the table that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

"If your little stomach can fit it, I don't mind having Xiangxiang bring a few more plates." Xiao Ling raised her eyes to look at her as she was holding up against the wall, and her eyes were full of banter.

"Hiccup~ No, no, no." Baili Qinglan hurriedly shook her head, this was the most she had ever eaten.

It's no wonder that she swept away half of the table of delicacies alone, because she was going to leave King Chen's Mansion today, and she couldn't eat these delicacies in the future.

Xiao Ling drank the remaining half bowl of porridge in small sips, and his movements were extremely elegant, and he was stunned for a while, "Pretty as a peach in three springs, and as pure as a chrysanthemum in nine autumns." ”

When Xiao Ling heard this, he hooked his lips and smiled, "I haven't seen you for half a month, and my literary style is getting longer." ”

"Hehe~ Sister, are you praising me?" Baili Qinglan smiled with crooked eyes.

"Yes."

"Uh~ Actually, I'm just 'borrowing flowers to offer Buddha'."

"Oh?" She, a quirky and grinning little junior sister, is usually only interested in medicine and poison, and she can't be interested in dancing and writing.

Now that the exit is poetry, she wants to see, 'this flower' and thus borrow?

Baili Qinglan walked around the table and said, "Sister, before you left the dark forest, I had already lived in King Chen's mansion with my mother for a period of time, and at that time, I accompanied my mother to the library every day to read medical books, and then, as your favorite little sister, His Royal Highness King Chen naturally would not stop me from going anywhere, so..."

Baili Qinglan sold a pass, her expression was mysterious, but the meaning of ridicule was already obvious.

Xiao Ling continued to look at her with a smile and a word, looking at her expression, he probably guessed the result.

Sure enough—

"I walked up layer by layer with curiosity, and as a result, the three to six floors above were all ink paintings and calligraphy scrolls, and the poems written on them were not the same.

"Also, do you think that's the end of it?"

looked at Lei Xiang who was sitting on the side and Lei Xin who had just stepped through the door, and after attracting all the eyes of several of them, he said: "After I walked to the seventh floor, I took a look at it, and there were all portraits of Sister Ling, and each of the poems written on it was so profound that even I couldn't understand it, so I simply memorized it and asked my mother to answer it for me." ”

Xiao Ling was silent for an instant, she had only guessed one of them just now, but she hadn't guessed the second, and her mind suddenly moved to the few painting tubes filled with her portraits that she had seen in Jing Zhuxuan that time.

Some of these portraits should have been painted by him because he missed himself during the year he disappeared.

Jun Yichen also said frankly: Thinking of her, thinking of her, the only way to paint!

"What about the eighth and ninth floors?" Lei Xiang and Lei Xin asked at the same time.

Before, they were only busy with other things, and they didn't have time to go to the library to check, but they didn't know that the prince had hung so many portraits of spirit girls on it.

"The latter is the point."

Baili Qinglan walked to Xiao Ling and sat down, holding her face with both hands, with a look of envy, "The back two floors, all of them are portraits of my sister practicing martial arts in the early morning, that look, that look, that move, ah..." It's so flexible and beautiful! ”

"His Royal Highness King Chen's painting skills are really the best in the painting world, the characters are painted very realistically, and I have looked at it several times, as if I mistakenly thought that Sister Ling was right in front of me."

Xiao Ling's hand hidden in his sleeve tightened again, and he looked at the tea in the cup without blinking, no wonder when he was meditating and practicing martial arts in the bamboo forest of the back mountain or on the top of the back mountain, he always felt a touch of gentle eyes looking at her, and when she carefully explored and perceived, that feeling disappeared again.

It turned out that everything was not an illusion, it was every day when she practiced martial arts in the morning, Jun Yichen was secretly and silently accompanying her.

Lei Xin and the others were also silent instantly, in the year when the spirit girl disappeared, the prince stayed in Jingzhuxuan to paint as long as he had time, even if he went out, he had to carry the four treasures of the study with him.

I still remember that at the beginning, when I came to Huangu Town in the middle of every month, the prince was alone in the tent to write and paint, and no one was allowed to disturb him, no matter whether it was windy or rainy, it never stopped.

It can be seen that the portraits of so many spirit girls are all from the hands of the prince.

"By the way, there are two other sentences that I remember more clearly." Baili Qinglan grabbed Xiao Ling's arm, and invited merit like a crisp thought: "The finger is like cutting the green onion root, the mouth is like containing Zhu Dan, and the slender step is like a subtle one, which is unique in the world." ”

Xiao Ling's eyelashes trembled for a moment, then he turned his head and asked softly, "What am I doing in the painting?" ”

"Huh..." Baili Qinglan tilted her head and thought about it, and then replied happily, "Sister collects dew in the bamboo forest." ”

Lei Xiang and Lei Xin glanced at each other, Miss Ling did have the habit of collecting dew, as long as she finished practicing in the morning, if it was still early, she liked to take a porcelain vase and collect morning dew alone in the back mountain or back garden.

At this moment, Xiao Ling's heart is sweet, sour, and painful, but more moved.

Seeing that Xiao Ling had been silent for a long time and didn't speak, Baili Qinglan's playful expression just now suddenly stopped, and she asked worriedly: "Sister, what's wrong with you??" ”

She went to the empty building, and he could only bear it alone.

Whether it was the year since he disappeared before, or the more than ten days since he was seriously injured and comatose into the dark forest recently, for Jun Yichen, I am afraid that it is the most painful moment.

After coming out of the dark forest, he could feel him waiting on the roof every night when he went to bed, and he would not leave until he fell asleep.

After a long time, she looked up, "I'm fine." ”

"Sister, I just... Is there something wrong? "I really want to smack myself in a big mouth.

"That's right, thank you." Xiao Ling gave her a sincere smile in return.

If she hadn't said it, she wouldn't have known, and at the same time, she also found the answer to the question in her heart, practicing martial arts in the morning, he accompanied him, and went to bed at night, and he was also waiting silently.

He was really scared of what she had experienced, and he could clearly feel his nervousness and fear.

"Whew~ That's good." Baili Qinglan patted his chest.

"Let's go." Xiao Ling suppressed the emotion and guilt in his heart, and silently warned in his heart that he must make himself strong and never let himself have an accident, which is the greatest comfort to Jun Yichen.

"Where to go??" Baili Qinglan had a question mark hanging on her head.

Xiao Ling flicked her forehead, "Aren't you determined to become a generation of dancing immortals?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes!"

She covered her forehead, and then asked excitedly, "Sister, then where are we going to practice?" ”

"Back garden."

Xiao Ling got up, pulled Lei Xin, who was standing behind him, to the table, pointed to the half-unopened porcelain bowls on the table and said, "Xinxin, the porridge and buns are hot, you have breakfast first." ”

"Miss Ling, have you all eaten enough?" Lei Xin was puzzled, it didn't seem to take long for her to wash a few clothes, right?

"Well, you and Xiangxiang eat slowly, and I'll go to the back garden with Qinglan."

"Yes." Now the key protection object of the palace secret guards is the spirit girl, as long as she appears in the place, there are no less than 100 secret guards around, they can also rest assured.

"Eat slowly~" Baili Qinglan smiled sweetly at the two of them, and then couldn't wait to pull Xiao Ling out of the room.

"Sister, there is a large plum forest in the back garden, which is already full of red flower bones, and when the snowflakes fall and the plum blossoms bloom, the scene of 'red makeup' is very beautiful."

Xiao Ling pursed her lips and smiled, "In that case, you should have traveled through that plum forest several times, right?" ”

"That's what I thought, but..." Baili Qinglan's eyes lit up and darkened.

"Is there anything wrong with Merlin?" She was curious.

"There's a problem, a big problem!" Baili Qinglan pouted, very dissatisfied with the accusation, "I went around that piece of Merlin in a big circle, and it turned out that I could only look at the periphery, and I couldn't touch it, let alone go in." ”

"Huh? Why? "Could it be that Jun Yichen has set up some weird formation again?

"As long as I stretched out my hand to touch the plum blossom bone, I was ejected several feet away by an invisible force, making me happy in vain!" Recalling that she had fallen several times for no reason, her eyes became even more resentful.

When she walked out of the gate of Liuliyuan, she paused, then looked at Xiao Ling, snapped her fingers, and showed an unfathomable smile, "There is." ”

"Your thoughts are already written on your face." Xiao Ling pinched her little cheek.

"Is it that obvious?"

"Are you so sure I'll be able to step into Merlin?"

"Of course, you have to, no doubt..."
