"Lord Wang? You're back? I opened my eyes in a daze and saw Zhou Yanzhi sitting in front of me, the prince who had not yet taken off his court clothes was luxurious and heroic, and his handsome face was so close.

"In the past, I only knew that you were sleepy, but I didn't know that you could sleep so well, and this king waited here for more than half an hour before seeing you wake up leisurely."

"After waiting for a long time, why didn't you wake me up?" Ye Yanxing, who had just woken up, was lazy in his voice.

"It's okay, this king can afford to wait."

Ye Yanxing buried his face in the pillow and laughed lowly, and his soft laughter became muffled.

It's night. Today is sixteenth, and the moon is full.

The two of them enjoyed the moon and drank in the cold courtyard, and the elixir and jade liquid in front of the table were delicious and fruity. Zhou Yanzhi looked at the beauty in front of him lying on the table with a smile in his eyes, "It's said that you are admiring the moon today, what are you looking at?" ”

"I'm looking at the prince, I look like a fairy in the moon in the sky."

"Oh? Are there really immortals in the world? Zhou Yanzhi's voice was soft.

Ye Yanxing drank a glass of Chinese wine, "Of course it's true, it's closer than me and the prince." ”

"Nonsense."

"Fox words? How does the prince know that it is a fox speech? That year was when I was still young at the beginning of my transformation, and I was blinded by the fairy aura that swirled in the sky, found the wrong way, and was trapped in the Moon Palace. I couldn't leave for a long time, and when I was tired, I fell asleep. The moon fairy passed by, saw that I was white and pitied me for being well-behaved, gave me fairy fruits to eat, and carried me out of the Moon Palace. ”

Zhou Yanzhi looked at him with misty eyes, sneered and laughed, his face was red, he was already drunk, and he shook his head and said nothing, just as some drunken words.

"How close?"

Ye Yanxing stood up, staggered towards Zhou Yanzhi, fell into his arms, stopped his neck, leaned on his chest and said, "So close." Gently raised his eyes to look at the moon in the sky, "Look, Xian'er is there, standing in that cold moon palace for thousands of years." ”

Zhou Yanzhi filled his cup, raised his glass to drink, and the person in his arms rubbed restlessly, lowered his head and coaxed, "Open your mouth." ”

"I want the prince." Ye Yanxing opened his eyes slightly and opened his mouth slightly.

This appearance is indeed well-behaved, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is loved by the immortals, and he reaches out and pinches his jaw and leads the wine glass. Ye Yanxing drank the wine and poured it into Zhou Yanzhi's arms and laughed, his fingers grabbing his clothes weakly.

Zhou Yanzhi wiped off the wine stains on Ye Yanxing's mouth, rubbing his lips repeatedly, and the soft and warm touch was lovely. The probe finger teased the soft tongue in his mouth.

Ye Yanxing's eyes were half-opened, with tears in the corners of his eyes, and he held the messy finger. Don't close your mouth, the corners of your mouth are drooling with crystal saliva, and your eyes are erotic.

Zhou Yanzhi withdrew his fingers and stopped teasing, this person was drunk, but the pain made him extremely sober, looking at him with deep eyes, leaning down and biting his earlobe, a deep voice sounded, "This mouth and this look are so abrasive, how can I be good." ”

Ye Yanxing laughed and made trouble for a long time, saying that he liked it, he liked it. Zhou Yanzhi hugged him and coaxed him softly, and finally waited until Ye Yanxing drank and fell asleep drunk.

Zhou Yanzhi followed behind Jiang Er with the emaciated person in his arms, put the person on the fragrant and soft bed, and found that Ye Yanxing had been holding his clothes tightly.

Jiang Er couldn't help but get nervous, only to see that the prince looked as usual, not angry, and withdrew from the room, and withdrew from the room with the manager.

At noon, Ye Yanxing woke up with his head covered in pain, only to feel that his memories were scattered, what else was there to eat and admire the moon, what else happened later, why he didn't remember it, it was really a mistake.

Pulled Jiang Er to ask about last night, Jiang Er put lunch and said that there was nothing to do. It's good that the son forgot about it, otherwise what happened yesterday wouldn't have shamed him to death.

Ye Yanxing looked at the light vegetarian food on the table, and thought for a while, "Today is the death anniversary of the prince's biological mother." ”

"That's right, Jiang'er only mentioned it once, and Gongzi remembered it." After placing the dishes, "But today, Childe wants to change out of his favorite red shirt and change into a set of plain clothes." ”

"Well, Jiang'er will go down and arrange it." Ye Yanxing is smart and never forgets, it is enough to mention such an important day.

"If the prince's birthday is a major event in the palace, then the concubine's death is grand. The prince is filial piety and respects his biological mother, Duanyue concubine, and invites the monks of the treasure temple to enter the house, and the house has three consecutive days of vegetarian food to show respect for the concubine. ”

The monks practice chanting, this year's memorial to avoid the fire, deliberately set up the altar to the lake, the cigarette smoke is around, in the middle is the statue of the concubine, dressed in the royal clothes of the Beisha nobles, dignified and gentle, bright and moving.

Ye Yanxing looked at the portrait from a distance and found that Zhou Yanzhi's appearance was also a lot of his mother, so beautiful and elegant and virtuous, he couldn't help but glance at Princess Ming and sighed lightly.

There were a group of people from the courtyard standing in an orderly manner by the lake, and Nan Zhiyi was in front of him to bring incense and bow to him.

"Today's concubine's death, the palace brought the female servants in the palace to salute, such a grand event in the palace has nothing to do with some unknown sons and the like, but it can be regarded as serving the royal family, come forward and ask for incense." Nan Zhiyi swept the male waiter in the corner from high to low, Lianbai everyone lowered their heads in horror, and her beautiful eyes stayed on Ye Yanxing, who was dressed in white and yellow shirts, and hooked the corners of her mouth, "Ye Gongzi has been a guest in the mansion recently, and as a distinguished guest, he is different from some people who are small in the corners. This second incense, childe please. ”

Lianxin invited Ye Yanxing to the front of the offering platform, Ye Yanxing lit incense into the furnace, only to see the portrait in the middle falling and sinking into the lake.

Everyone was in a panic, the monks chanted non-stop, and the subordinates jumped into the water one after another to salvage the portrait, Ye Yanxing frowned, the change happened too quickly, and the painting had entered the water when he was about to cast a spell.

The subordinate held out the portrait, the painting paper was damaged, and the beauty in the picture was unrecognizable.

Nan Zhiyi trembled, pointed at Ye Yanxing and said sharply, "You, you unknown person, caused the statue of the concubine to fall into the water, come on, go and tell the prince." ”

"What does the portrait have to do with me?" Ye Yanxing stepped forward to take a closer look at the portrait, but was stopped by the guards.

Jiang Er knelt on the side and finished the straight road, Gongzi must have lost his life this time. The prince has always loved the princess, the portrait is the only thought of the concubine Niangniang left in the world to the prince, has always been locked in the garden by the painter in the house to take care of, touching is a capital crime, now the portrait fell into the water and was damaged, the prince will not spare him.

"Childe, this is the only painting in the world of the concubine, and I don't know how angry the prince is when he finds out." Lianxin looked at Ye Yanxing contemptuously.

The sons leaning in the corner panicked, and the ripples behind the crowd pulled them and shook their heads, with a light look of joy on their faces.

Zhou Yanzhi, who received the report, hurried over, waved his hand to signal that he didn't have to salute, and hurriedly walked towards the damaged portrait.

Nan Zhiyi slowly moved forward, "Lord Wang, in the past few years, I have taken female servants to worship, and there has never been a situation, but today Ye Gongzi entered the incense, and the portrait fell into the water." ”

Zhou Yanzhi's eyes were red, holding the portrait in his hand, "Take people down." ”

The guards grabbed Ye Yanxing, Ye Yanxing frowned, "It's not me, I don't know why it's like this." ”

Lianxin sneered, "I don't know? The abbot of the princess has been dead for many years, and she has never made a mistake. In the past, when the mother bowed, it was all right, but when it was you, the image fell into the water. ”

Nan Zhiyi said lightly: "Xu is an ominous person who polluted this sacrifice, so that the statue of the concubine fell into the water." ”

Ye Yanxing looked at Zhou Yanzhi's painful appearance fixedly, the chill in his eyes made his heart tingle, and he only said, "Don't believe me." ”

"This king will be alone for a while."

Nan Zhiyi's master and servant looked at each other and smiled, and led everyone to retreat.

Zhou Yanzhi held the damaged portrait and felt heartache, and the last thoughts left by his mother to him in this world are now flowing with the water.

White Cloud Dog. In the past, the beautiful mother of the world held him in his arms, standing in the highest pavilion of the palace, looking at the distant heavenly realm, saying that when she was pregnant, the five-colored auspicious clouds accompanied by the silver-white dragon coiled around her, a good omen.

Sure enough, when he was born, he had the shape of a dragon, and the emperor favored his mother and indulged in her beauty, and the courtiers thought he was a candidate for the crown prince. The emperor is the pride of the sky, and the people who are sent to him will only become younger and more beautiful. At the age of seven, the mother concubine who lost her favor was framed for fornicating with the palace guards, and she married from Beisha Yuan, with no background and no one to protect, and was finally given three feet of white silk.

From that day on, he was alone, stepping on the blade of the sword in this cold court.

The court was broken, and the emperor witnessed the death penalty of his favorite concubine and her young son, and he was depressed and abandoned the government. Year after year, he showed unparalleled strategic talent, breaking the army and killing the enemy's thunderous momentum, the emperor was seriously ill and dying, but he ordered him to be the assistant to the Ming king, and Zhou Fufeng, who was still the youngest son, ascended to the throne. was so afraid that he couldn't leave him, Zhou Yanzhi grasped the real power step by step, and secretly ordered the imperial doctor to stop the medicine, and the old emperor who was hollowed out by the wine pond meat forest died alone in the dormitory, and the concubines who had been fortunate were all martyred.

Now, he has guarded the world, but he can't protect the last miss in his heart.

The moonlight poured down, and the quiet lake was silent, Zhou Yanzhi looked at the scroll in his hand, his eyes were attracted by a few red threads, and his fingers twisted lightly, thoughtfully.

"Dark Guard, find Fang Qian."

Quietly, then Fang Qian arrived, "See the prince." ”

"Fang Qian, looking at this portrait, what did you find?"

Fang Qian took the portrait, looked at it for a long time, and said with a little hesitation: "Lord Wang, this seems to be..."

Lianxin stood not far away, looking at the side hall guarded by many guards, which was dark and dark. was in a very good mood and said with a smug face, and said in a brisk tone: "Hmph, dare to rob the prince with our mother, I don't think I can do it, the cheap slave deserves to end up like this." ”

"It's just a little tricky, I didn't expect it to go so well."

"Naturally, the silk thread of my barren country is hidden in the light, and few people know it. Tied to the painting scroll, waiting for Ye Yanxing to come forward and ask for incense, cut off the silk thread, and the portrait entered the water, and everyone was ignorant and unconscious. Lianxin praised the treasure very proudly, "Ah, Niangniang, and the little slut who followed him, what should I do?" ”

"That dog slave who forgot his master, beat Bengong to death, and told him to remember who Bengong is."

"Niangniang, let's go back, don't let the cold in this side hall hurt your body." Lianxin helped Nan Zhiyi and said with a smile, "That slave is now hanging with breath, lying in the cold room and waiting to die."

Ye Yanxing stood behind the forest and waited for them to go away, feeling very angry, and hurriedly looked for the cold room.

A few days ago, the subordinates who were noisy with Jiang Er in the side hall broke off their relations with Jiang Er one after another. Jiang Er lay on the ground, unconscious, and her buttocks and legs were beaten to the point of bloody flesh and blood. Ye Yanxing looked heartbroken, held his face, and used his aura to brush the wound, and the physical injury quickly healed. Princess Ming's master and servant are so vicious, she did bad things in order to frame herself, and now she still treats a servant like this.

Jiang Er looked up at Ye Yanxing, he wanted to call Childe, wanted to say that he was not in pain, and wanted Childe not to cry. When he opened his mouth, he could only make a whining sound, and he could only hang his head, because he didn't know how long he had been beaten, and it was so painful that he screamed and broke his throat.

"Jiang'er, don't be afraid, no one can take you away from me." As he spoke, he stuffed the white pill into Jiang Er's mouth.

Jiang Er pulled Ye Yanxing and grinned bitterly, it was good to see that Gongzi was still so confident and cheerful, so he could only keep nodding and nodding again.

The medicine melted in the mouth, and after a while, the warmth flowed through the limbs and bones, the body was no longer heavy, and the throat was no longer hot.

Jiang Er lay on the ground and cried, thinking that he was stained, and he didn't dare to hug his son-in-law, Ye Yanxing patted his back and comforted him softly, "How can you be like a child, get up and wear pants." ”

Jiang Er got up and lifted her pants, wiped her tears and said, "Isn't the elixir given by Gongzi very precious?" ”

"No matter how precious it is, can it be as precious as you?"

"Why is Gongzi here, doesn't the prince blame you? Jiang Er thought that she would never see her son again,"

Ye Yanxing lowered his head and said softly, "The portrait falling into the water was made by the princess." ”

"But, but, the portrait of the concubine is the most precious treasure of the prince, why did the lady destroy it?"

Ye Yanxing shrugged his shoulders, "The more precious it is, the more it will make people panic, and the hatred will be strong." ”

"You just recuperate here, wait for me."

Ye Yanxing searched all over the palace and didn't see Zhou Yanzhi, so he had to turn back to the side hall, and found that the guards in the courtyard were gone, and he didn't care, grinding and adjusting the sand, and the beautiful Duanyue concubine jumped on the paper.

"Hurry up, move faster."

The person in front of him moved quickly, followed by a masked man in strange costumes, panting and saying, "Don't worry, the emperor, it's still early." ”

"It's not early, master, you can hurry up, my imperial uncle doesn't know when to return home." Zhou Fufeng walked eagerly, this labyrinthine Ming Wangfu was walking so fast.

In front of the door of the side hall, the masked man took out magic weapons, charms, and a few strands of hair.

"Your Majesty, is this the man's hair?"

"Yes, it took me a long time to get that few."

The mage recited the incantation, bent down to salute Zhou Fufeng, and whispered a few words in his ear.

Zhou Fufeng smiled and said that he was rewarded, and then pushed the door in.

Ye Yanxing stood behind the case, looked at the person who came was Zhou Yanzhi, surprised and delighted, and threw himself into his arms, "I didn't expect you to be willing to see me so soon, I thought you were so angry, it must be a few days before you come to see me." ”

Zhou Fufeng tightened his arms, "How can you be so beautiful, I... How could this king be angry with you. ”

Ye Yanxing raised his eyes to look at Zhou Yanzhi, his eyes were full of admiration and love, Zhou Fufeng was moved by it, and hugged the person in his arms.

"I must be very sad that your mother's portrait was destroyed today, but you don't have to worry, I've done it for you..."

Zhou Fufeng hurriedly interrupted Ye Yanxing's words, "It's just a painting, how can it compare to your smile." ”

"Is it okay to go out of the house with this king today? Forget your worries and swim with your hands. As he spoke, he kissed Ye Yanxing's side neck.

Ye Yanxing couldn't resist such enthusiasm, and looked at Zhou Yanzhi and felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say anything wrong. Looking up at Zhou Yanzhi's gaze, he turned his head to look outside the house.

"Beauty, what's wrong with you? Why ignore the king? Zhou Fufeng saw Ye Yanxing look away, and hugged him tightly with his hand.

The magic weapon in his hand was snatched by someone, the masked man was startled, and the treasure fell to the ground and shattered.

Zhou Yanzhi pushed open the door and looked at Zhou Fufeng who was hugging Ye Yanxing with an unkind face, "It's getting late, send the emperor back to the palace." ”

"Uncle Huang?"

"Come on, don't send the emperor back to the palace quickly."

"If I don't leave, Uncle Huang will give Ye Gongzi to me, and I will agree to whatever you want."

"Is the emperor really not leaving? I'm afraid the Queen Mother didn't know that you left the palace today. Forget it, if you don't want to go, then never go. ”

Zhou Fufeng clenched his fists and turned blue, looked at Ye Yanxing unwillingly, brushed his sleeves and left, "Childe, I will go back to the palace first." ”

The room was quiet, and Ye Yanxing handed the picture scroll on the case to Zhou Yanzhi, relatively speechless.

Zhou Yanzhi opened it and saw that it was a portrait of his mother's concubine, if it weren't for the old intentions of the old age, it would be exactly the same as the damaged one.

"I didn't think you could do that kind of painting."

"There are many capable people in the world, and the old picture can be painted again if it is destroyed, but it hurts to be deceived and distrusted."

Zhou Yanzhi put down the painting in his hand and stood quietly aside. He has only been for power all his life, and his goal is only the chair of power in the palace, and in his eyes, the unprofitable royal power is boring, especially the love between men and women, which is simply a waste of time. He has seen Ye Yanxing's infatuation, he has seen the unconcealed love in his eyes, he knows Ye Yanxing's beauty, and he has also marveled, just like the Moon Palace Immortal. But he has been walking alone for too long and no longer needs any company, Ye Yanxing crossed the bottom line three times and twice and was entangled, so he really couldn't deal with it, so he could only subconsciously avoid it.

Today's portrait fell into the water, and he sent all the guards in the palace to find the former court painter who had already died old, and the guards were weak for a while and were exploited by Zhou Fufeng. When he received the notice to return home, he saw Ye Yanxing being embraced by Zhou Fufeng in his arms, looking at others with affection in his eyes, and the anger rising in his heart wished that Zhou Fufeng would never return to the palace.

"I knew you didn't have me in your heart, but I still want to try, you must be laughing at me when you've been so obsessed these days." Ye Yanxing's voice trembled a little, "Let me go today, we are not the same, and we will never be..."

Zhou Yanzhi looked at Ye Yanxing's light-colored eyes shining with water, and reached out to stroke the corners of his reddened eyes, "Really annoyed, right?" ”

Ye Yanxing looked at the tall figure covering him, the corners of his eyes were slightly painful from the thin calluses between Zhou Yanzhi's fingers, and he refused to close his eyes stiffly, and the water in his eyes finally fell.

"I know, not anymore." Zhou Yanzhi looked at him and said solemnly.

Ye Yanxing threw himself into Zhou Yanzhi's arms, looked into his beautiful eyes, saw a look that he had never seen before, faded into a smoke dream, thin as dust and mist, covering his worries and sorrows, and only full of joy for him.

Fang Qian walked outside the cold room with Ye Yan, and heard a few family members saying that Jiang Er was motionless, afraid that he was dead and was going to be dragged out and buried.

Jiang Er was afraid of being beaten again, so he didn't dare to move, and when he heard that they were going to bury himself, he was so anxious that he couldn't do it.

"Stop, put people down, even if your hands and feet are slow, bury them faster and yours."

"The big manager, but, Sister Lianxin said that this is the mother's order, and the little one doesn't dare to disobey."

"Presumptuous! Is the palace the prince or the princess? ”

"Yes, little one." The servant put down the man and hurriedly ran.

Ye Yanxing squatted beside Jiang Er, propped his face and said, "Still pretending to be dead?" Get up, Childe is coming to pick you up. ”

"Childe, don't fool me."

Fang Qian smiled bitterly, "The prince ordered, who else in the palace dares to touch you." ”

"Lord Wang?"

Ye Yanxing smiled but did not speak.

Jiang Er looked at his son-in-law and felt that there seemed to be something different about him.
