Chu Yi originally planned to wait here, but when she thought that the court meeting might start very late, and she didn't know how long those officials would have to argue, she began to feel sleepy.

Chu Tingxiao scratched his head, not annoyed, but said with concern: "Escort the princess back to Weiyang Palace to rest, don't be cold." ”

Chu Yi smiled slightly, and his voice softened a little: "By the way, Father, Yongning still has something to ask for." ”

The girl showed a mouthful of snow-white teeth, her eyes were wet, and she was dressed in red like a beautiful and soft little fox, and her black hair seemed to have two fox ears erected.

Chu Yi has never asked for help, Chu Tingxiao has never seen her look like this, and his heart suddenly melted, and he nodded like pounding garlic: "What's the matter?" No matter what, my father will be satisfied! ”

"After the father's dynasty meeting, can you come to Weiyang Palace to visit Yongning?" Chu Yi's eyes were full of admiration, "Dayan won the battle, and Yongning also has a gift for his father." ”

"Liuliu wants to give me a gift?" Chu Tingxiao was pleasantly surprised, and his cold and serious handsome face showed the kind smile of his old father, "I promise you that I will go to see my June 6 later today." ”

"Then, Yongning retires." Chu Yi owed, and after saying goodbye to Fu Qianqian and the eldest princess, he took one last look at Xiao Yan in the corner.

She could leave the scene early, but Xiao Yan had to drag her injured body to be treated as a monkey.

Around, the officials of the Yan Kingdom looked at Xiao Yan with disdain, Chu Yi faintly heard a few mockery, and Xu Xiang stared at him from time to time, not knowing what he was planning.

The boy sat there like an emotionless statue.

"Xiao Proton." Chu Yi stopped.

Xiao Yan's heart jumped, and he raised his head to look at her, his face was expressionless, but the fingertips in his sleeves curled up.

"Are you still used to living in Mingyue Pavilion?"

She thought that if Xiao Yan begged her, she could support him for a while, such as letting him leave early, so as not to continue to be humiliated here.

Xiao Yan lowered his head, and his voice was without any emotion: "Thank you princess for your concern, the minister lives very well." ”

Chu Yi looked at his appearance of not getting oil and salt, took a deep breath, brushed his sleeves and walked out.

Also, what can she do to help him, didn't he come over like this in his previous life.

Xiao Yan looked at Chu Yi's back and thought to herself, she really didn't hesitate to go, so her footsteps didn't stop because of him.

The boy withdrew his gaze, his eyes fell silent, and without the attention of others, he quietly wrapped a few grains of candy and a few snacks on the table in front of him and put them in his pocket.

In front of him was the glamorous, lively and noisy courtiers of the Yan Kingdom, and Xiao Yan sat alone in the corner, trying to ignore everything around him, maintaining a short-lived, calmness that belonged to him.

A beam of light fell on Xiao Yan's handsome and pale face, half of his side face was hidden in the dark, his eyes were cold and thin, like a nightmare, and the other half was plated with golden light, holy as a god.

Walking out of the Zhonghe Palace, the spring breeze blew, making Chu Yi clench the stove in his hand.

She looked up, the sun was dim, and the gray sky was accumulating a few dark clouds, as if it was going to rain heavily.

It's the season for mulberry sowing, and spring rain is as expensive as oil, and rain is a good thing, but unfortunately, she doesn't like water.

"Your Highness, what gift do you want to give Your Majesty?" Xun Chun heard what Chu Yi said to the emperor before, and asked curiously.

Chu Yi grimaced and asked, "How many pieces of milk cake are left in the milk cake that Concubine Xian gave us yesterday?" ”

Xun Chun: "Fortunately, His Highness didn't eat it yesterday, and now there are five pieces left." ”

The pillow snow on the side, combined with the context, twitched the corners of his mouth, and said as tactfully as possible: "The milk cake was overnight, for Your Majesty to eat...... It doesn't seem quite right. ”

Chu Yi: "The baby pastries made by his precious concubine Xian are perfect for him." ”

Pillow Xue was silent, how did she think that after Her Royal Highness the princess and the prince Yan finished talking, she was not in a good mood, and then the unlucky person became Your Majesty.

"Is the celebration over? Little Liu, why did you come out so early. ”

A low and gentle voice sounded, and before Chu Yi could see it clearly, there was an extra cloak of dark embroidered gold python on his shoulder, with a warm smell of sandalwood.

"The slave has seen His Royal Highness the Prince." Pillow Xue and Xunchun hurriedly saluted.

Chu Yi's heart trembled, she looked at the prince Chu Ye standing in the cold wind, the young man was long and jade, dressed in a navy blue python robe, covered with black light armor on his shoulders, and his hair was tied with a jade crown, gentle and comfortable.

The boredom in Chu Yi's heart was swept away.

"What is my brother doing here?" She was still thinking about why she didn't see the prince at the celebration ceremony just now, and she didn't quite remember what Chu Ye was doing at this time in her previous life, so Chu Ye appeared in front of her.

Chu Ye bent his lips, raised his hand, and personally tied the strap of the cloak for Chu Yi, with a little gentle reproach in his tone: "Don't catch a cold, you are not in good health, you have to wear more." ”

He was born comfortable and noble, his facial contours were cold, but his facial features were very soft, his dark jade-like eyes were deep and charming, and his smile was friendly and warm.

Among the five imperial brothers, Chu Ye's face is the most similar to Chu Tingxiao, the same handsome, and the same majestic bearing.

It is said that the eldest brother is like a father, but the eldest brother Chu Rin has been fighting abroad all the year round, and he can't see him twice a year, and the fourth Chu Zhao is always picking on her and Chu Xiaowu's mistakes because he was too lenient when he was a child, and he has a withdrawn temperament when he grows up, so he has an estranged relationship with her - and then Chu Xiaowu is an unreliable fool.

Therefore, she only recognized Chu Ye and Chu Yun since she was a child.

Chu Yi has always called Chu Ye his brother, but the crown prince Chu Ye is not the prince born to his mother.

As she grew up, she had a sense of distance from him, and she was no longer as dependent on him as she was when she was a child.

Chu Yi let Chu Ye tie his cloak, looked up at him, his eyes flashed with water, and said: "The banquet in the palace is not over yet, is Yongning tired and has to go back to the palace to rest first, and my brother didn't go in, is it in the middle of the guard and the safety of the palace?" ”

Chu Ye nodded, and her slender ten fingers shuttled through her jaw, and she tied a beautiful knot: "I was appointed by my father last month as the deputy commander of the Yulin Army, and it is my duty to guard the palace." ”

Chu Yi's eyes fell behind him, there was indeed a team of Yulin Army, all of them heroic, and they looked much more serious than Liu Cheng's people.

The Yulin Army was established more than a hundred years ago, responsible for guarding the safety of the palace, many years have passed, the Yulin Army is not as powerful as before, after the father ascended the throne, but also because of the weakening of the army, did not receive much attention.

Liu Cheng and his ilk can be second only to the commander and deputy commander of the right lieutenant, which shows the moisture in it.

She remembered that after the capital was broken in the previous world, most of the Yulin army fled, and some of them followed the emperor and the crown prince to defend against foreign enemies, and finally accompanied the Chu royal family to a different place.

Chu Tingxiao asked Chu Ye to be the deputy commander of the Yulin Army, most of which was just to let him make a false name, but the elder brother was strict with himself, so he really guarded the palace like an ordinary guard.

"Brother, how many people are there in the Yulin Army now?"

Chu Yi's heart moved, and he looked at the team of soldiers behind Chu Ye, his eyes lit up slightly.

Chu Ye replied: "A few years ago, after the layoffs, there are still five thousand left, of which seventy percent are some foolish eunuchs, but unfortunately in the past, the eight thousand Yulin Army, because of their strength, was useless, and now no one even cares about the military salary, and the one who can guard the palace is still selected by me and Commander Su." ”

"The Yulin Army is so defeated."

No wonder the capital fell so quickly in the previous world, the biggest armament in the palace was actually a group of sons and daughters who couldn't hold swords, and they belonged to the poor and broken sons and brothers.

Chu Yi looked at the team of soldiers, and now, although she knew that the Yulin Army had been defeated and had been reduced to a gold-plated tool for the children of the official eunuchs, she did not look down on these people in her heart.

When the country is ruined and the family is ruined, some people turn their backs and flee, and there will always be people who face the end of death, but they still face it head-on, without complaint or regret.

This Yulin army has potential, but they have been silent and deserted for too long, so long that they themselves have forgotten the glory of the past.

If the Yulin Army can regain its strength......

Chu Yi had an idea in her heart, and she settled down, she said to Chu Ye: "Brother, you may have misunderstood what your father meant. ”

Chu Ye: "Oh? What is Xiaoliu's opinion? ”

As soon as Chu Yi was about to speak, a low call came from a distance: "His Royal Highness the Prince, it's time to patrol the Qianyuan Palace!" ”

She followed the prestige, and saw a young man in black gold armor and a long sword at his waist standing in the distance, with a solemn face, looking at them coldly.

A name appeared in Chu Yi's heart, and Chu Ye smiled helplessly at her, and said, "Su Xuan, the commander of the Yulin Army, Su Jingyuan's nephew, is now my boss, and he is a bit of a tiger. ”

His voice was clear and gentle, and he gently patted Chu Yi's head: "Little Liu, I'm going to be on duty first, it seems to be raining today, you have to go back early." ”

His sister is afraid of water.

After that, Chu Ye quickly pursued Su Xuan.

Chu Yi looked at his back, and said in his heart, brother, my father appointed you as the deputy commander, not to let you take the lead in guarding the palace gate.

Back in Weiyang Palace, Chu Yi unbuttoned his cloak, leaned lazily on the beauty's lean, pinched a fresh sweet and sour red plum in his hand, took a bite, and was slightly sour by the fruit.

Xun Chun was beside her and asked curiously, "Princess, there is something unknown about the slave maid." ”

Chu Yi said: "You want to ask the palace, why do you say that the imperial brother will be wrong." ”
