Bronze was lying in a pool of blood, he stubbornly accepted Xie Yu's thirty lashes, his whole body, except for his face, almost all other parts had wounds, and the skin of the wound was dripping with blood. The wounds hurt and he couldn't stand up again.

Xie Yu shook the bloody whip, and a blood mark immediately appeared on the ground, and finally he handed it to Yifeng, and also said to him: "Bronze now needs to recuperate with peace of mind, and order the kitchen to stew some supplements." You passed on my message to Imperial Doctor Liu of the Medicine Hall, and he was the chief doctor. Heal him well, give me special medicinal herbs, and treat him the same as Xie Yunxi. If Bronze is crippled and dies, he won't be alive either. The heron wants to take care of the bronze, and from now on, it is not restricted by the rules of the school grounds, and it is given the privilege to come and go at will. ”

"Do you want Miss Nangong to take care of Lord Bronze's daily life?, but she's a girl, won't she be a little ......?" Yifeng said as he looked at the bronze on the ground.

"It doesn't matter. Lulu and he have been friends since childhood. Xie Yu said lightly, he looked at the bronze eyes, still that resolute. This made Xie Yu feel a little unhappy, as if there was a sense of righteousness and awe.

"But that's ...... Let's let someone do it......" Yifeng knew in his heart that taking care of people was a very tiring thing, he didn't want Nangong Yulu to be tired, she was the cousin of the little princess, if Xie Yun knew about it, he would definitely have to talk to Xie Yu again.

Xie Yu laughed: "It's not for nothing, if you pay the salary, you will directly give it to the Qinghui Medical Center when the time comes." I said it's okay, it's okay...... Bronze him......"

Bronze saw what Xie Yu was going to say, suddenly there was fear in his eyes, he opened his mouth to speak but didn't have the strength to say a word, he tried his best to get up, and his hand grabbed the ground and left bloody handprints of different shades. Nangong Yulu squatted down to check his situation, and for a while she didn't know what to do.

"Bronze he's a eunuch, so there's nothing inconvenient. It's so convenient. Xie Yu's words made Bronze completely lose his soul, this was originally his secret, and now two more people know it.

Xie Yu saw that the bronze finally gave in, and he was satisfied. He turned around and threw down a sentence: "Until Bronze recovers, his affairs will be handled by you, if you are like him, let the little prince have a mistake." The next time you're lying on the ground, you'll be the one who's going to lie on the ground ”

Yifeng on the side was stunned, he didn't know that this brother who had lived with him for five or six years had another identity. The first time Yifeng entered the mansion, it was Bronze who took him, he only knew that this person's mask did not leave his body, he lived alone, and he walked alone when he left Xie Yunxi. I haven't heard a story about him in the Hidden Spirit Guard, I don't know his real name, I only know that he is the person brought by Xie Yu, the person who created the Hidden Spirit, mysterious and powerful.

Nangong Yulu's hand on him froze slightly, and Xie Yu's words didn't seem to have much shock to her. Her hands clenched into fists, and she said from Yifeng: "Brother Yifeng, please come and help......"

Xie Yunxi strolled to the door, looking at the backs of the departing officials of Dali Temple, they were talking about Nalan Zhishui. He was a little stunned.

"Yun, you need to get some rest. I'll take care of the rest, and you'll just be able to sit in on it. Nalan Zhishui was recognized by a group of officials, and he became proud.

"I just got recognized by everyone once, and I got carried away. He also asked me to sit in on the hearing. Xie Yunxi laughed at her: "I didn't expect you to be able to solve the problem." But I still don't want you to show your head too much. ”

"Hmph, you're afraid I'm more popular than you. ”

"Someone will come and talk to you and let you whisper in my ear. Do you know that sometimes trees attract the wind? Since ancient times, there is a word called "red face and troubled water......"

"Oops, I see. I'm just here to help you when you're sick, so if you can bear the stigma of 'red face', then feel free." ”

"Don't you care, it might bring disaster to the Nalan family. Xie Yun couldn't help but be curious when he saw that her lively appearance was in great contrast with the serious appearance when she was discussing in the room.

"My dad is still your teacher, and if that's the case, even if it's not me, I'm basically dead, so it doesn't matter. I don't care at all. ”

"What is not dead to say these words. Xie Yunxi said seriously on the surface, but he was very happy in his heart: "I went to the sea of books, and my father seems to want to talk to me about something alone." ”

Qian Si on the side saw the way they got along, and it was so sweet that it suffocated him. He couldn't help but feel a strong sense of awe for bronze in his heart, but he thought it was funny. Leaving Nalan Zhishui, Qiansi followed Xie Yunxi to the sea of books.

As soon as Xie Yu entered Xie Yunxi's study, he immediately "tsk". There were stacks of books on his desk, some of which were spread out and not closed.

"What the hell is this kid doing. Xie Yu muttered. Then I leaned over and took a look, and it turned out to be all books about Buddhist Tantra. He picked up the method seal behind Yazhi drawn by Xie Yunxi on the table, and there was a complete picture on the side, which was recorded by Nalan Zhishui from behind Ye Ruying, and he was in a hurry to show Xie Yunxi, so he was postponed by other things.

This kid is studying the method of the seal...... Xie Yu frowned slightly, and was about to take a closer look. Xie Yunxi entered the house, he saw Xie Yu looking at his things, and then said, "Dad, what are you looking for me? Why don't you call the eternal tea?"

"No need to serve tea, he's giving a lesson to Yin Lingwei. Qiansi, you can also go to class, you don't have to wait here. Xie Yu looked at Xie Yunxi and said.

Qiansi's eyes lit up when he heard that Liu Qiangu had started the class, this was simply a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he immediately withdrew. He was destined to be Liu Si's cousin, and they had a good relationship before entering the mansion. and his father died due to an accident, and then took refuge in his uncle and entered the palace as a scrivener, the same position as Liu Qiangu, and later he was transferred to the palace even more so. Xie Yun was surprised to see that someone volunteered to be a hidden spirit guard, and after learning the reason, he kept a word in Liu Si's name and named it Qiansi. It feels like a brother to the ages.

Xie Yun saw that Qian Si was gone before sitting next to Xie Yu: "Today's father-in-law Gao's future?"

"You are going to get married in ten days, and I asked the emperor for half a moon of freedom and came back to make a fuss. Grandpa Gao stayed in the palace to help me 'watch' some people, so I didn't come back. Xie Yu said with a smile: "Bronze came to me this morning, and I knew that something was wrong with you." When I came back in a hurry, I found that you were sleeping lazy. ”

"I ...... I slept late last night, and in the morning Bronze Future called me up......" Xie Yun swallowed.

"Oh, I heard that Bronze stood outside your door all night last night, you know?" Xie Yu said, looking at him.

Xie Yunxi didn't dare to look at his father, he didn't know what he was afraid of.

"Zhishui is in your house this morning. Xie Yu smiled and said, "Are you enlightened?"

"I don't know what dad means. Xie Yunxi actually had a feeling in his heart that he was caught doing bad things, and he didn't want to answer his words at all.

"The girl who arranged for you in the past, you don't want to live or die, now it's time to regret it. ”

Xie Yunxi's heart was "groaning", he thought that Xie Yu would accuse him of neglecting political affairs, but he was telling him about it. A sense of rejection suddenly arose in his heart, he thought that it was his own business, and no one could interfere.

"Dad was like this back then?" Xie Yunxi found a random question, he just wanted to perfunctory the past.

"That's right. You don't really have nothing like me, I can be fifteen or sixteen years old, and I am still like you, and I only hold the girl's hand when I am twenty years old. Xie Yu made a joke, which made Xie Yunxi angry.

"In that case, after the death of that mother, why did my father stop marrying a wife and taking concubines? Isn't it lonely after so many years?" Xie Yunxi replied with a counterattack.

Xie Yu grinned and crossed his legs and said, "Why don't you marry a wife, you know it in your heart." Look at the chicken feathers in Dali Temple, don't you understand? I'm just your son, and according to your character, you will be bullied to death. ”

"Thank you dad for making you lonely for so many years. ”

Xie Yu read Xie Yunxi's counter-words, and then responded to him: "You are not me, how do you know that I don't have a concubine, not to mention that this kind of thing can only be done after marriage." ”

Xie Yunxi's heart secretly said that his father, the old fox, began to talk nonsense again, I don't know what happened, the two of them were cynical when they met, whoever was angry would lose, so Xie Yu's jokes couldn't be taken to heart at all: "Yes, I have never interfered with this matter from my father, so I hope my father will not interfere with me." ”

"Oh, that's right. Where did the jade dragon around your neck go? That's the betrothal I gave my mother, and I'll give it to you when she dies. Xie Yu didn't seem to be stiff with him.

"Gave it away. Xie Yunxi's words are very simple.

"Who is so capable that you can give him this thing that has not been separated for twenty years?" Xie Yu was a little surprised: "Is it Zhishui? or bronze?"

"Neither. Xie Yunxi looked out the window after speaking: "It's given to Yazhi, the two of us exchanged a beloved thing for each other." ”

Xie Yu raised his eyes and looked at Xie Yunxi, only to see that there was a literary fan behind his waist. Then Xie Yu sighed and said, "It seems that they rumored that you like male ......"

"I didn't, don't believe them. Xie Yunxi's crisp words interrupted Xie Yu's words.

Xie Yu couldn't help frowning when he saw that he was so eager to explain. The sudden silence made Xie Yunxi feel depressed.

"I see that you are studying the 'Fa Zi Seal' on Yazhi's body on the table, in fact, you are indeed ...... when you look at it."

"I'll say it again, I didn't!" Xie Yunxi angrily whispered angrily, interrupting Xie Yu's words again.

Xie Yu saw Xie Yun's reaction, which seemed to confirm his conjecture, Xie Yu thought in his heart and changed his gentle attitude and said: "Yun Xi, you like Zhishui because Yazhi likes her, so you like her too, right?"

Xie Yunxi didn't dare to answer, he was terrified, he was afraid of his father's blame and disappointed look. For the past ten years, he has demanded that he do what his father wants, whether or not it is beyond his ability. Who is he to remove all this fame?

"You actually knew that Yazhi liked Zhishui, and you were afraid that there would be no place for you after they were together. So when I came back from Nalan's house that year, I told me that you fell in love with the girl from Nalan's family, and said cruelly that Nalan Zhishui would not marry. Xie Yu slowly explained the truth to Xie Yun: "You know that your father will work hard to get everything for you." Look at the fact that you have chosen the latter between Yazhi and Nalan Zhishui. Then you will be charged with stealing your brother's love for this choice. ”

"Since Dad knows, why didn't he stop me?" Xie Yunxi said lightly.

"It's hard to say about feelings, as long as you don't do too much, everyone is just competing equally. Xie Yu looked at him worriedly, still frowning: "What's more, your temper, is it useful for me to block it?"

"I had no choice but to choose what I liked. Xie Yunxi was depressed, and Xie Yu's words were mostly correct.

Xie Yu couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Did I say it? It's not that you chose Zhishui, but that she chose you." ”

"That's what I tried to make her choose mine. ”

Xie Yu sighed, he didn't speak, hesitated for a while.

Seeing his father's expression, Xie Yun immediately asked him, "What other reason is there besides this?"

"I think she likes you quite a lot now, and now that you are in love, it doesn't matter what the original intention was. Xie Yu said softly, and he touched Xie Yunxi's shoulder.

"What was her original intention?" Xie Yunxi suddenly grabbed Xie Yu's hand, and his expression became a little excited.

Xie Yun learned of these truth-seeking eyes, and Xie Yu couldn't bear to feel distressed in his eyes: "It doesn't matter what I said. The important thing is the future. ”

"What is it, Daddy, tell me!"

"She came to me alone, and she agreed to this marriage on the condition that she hoped that I would protect the Nalan family from being violated again, and that I would be considerate for the rest of my life. Xie Yu said this slowly.

"What about the others? Are there any others?" Xie Yunxi didn't want to believe this answer, it turned out that this was the real reason why Nalan Zhishui and her family had a quarrel with her and ran away from home in order to marry her.

"No more. ”

"It's you...... This is your plan, isn't it?You are ...... in order to trick her into agreeing to this marriage" Xie Yunxi already knew this answer in his heart, but he just didn't want to believe it. He just wants that unconditional, simple love out of love. And some of the actual unbeautiful things were pushed onto Xie Yu.

Xie Yu didn't feel good in his heart, and it wasn't the first time he had carried a black pot, so he simply blackened his face to the end, and said, "Yes, it's me." If you want Nalan Rongque to agree to this marriage, you must be willing to Zhishui. If I don't do this, will you still have a wedding in ten days? You kid has grown so big, don't you know that what people want to interact with each other is to benefit each other. Your current status and connections are already destined to be devoid of that purity. When will you be able to accept it?"

Xie Yun was stunned, he sat in his chair and didn't say a word.

"Don't always tempt the people around you, especially Yazhi. He's a good-hearted man, and it's good that he's still a friend with you. If other people had turned against each other, did you know the feud? Let go of others, and let go of yourself. When Xie Yu said this, he was very sad in his heart: "Why did you eat peanut-stuffed cloud bean cake yesterday? If something happens to you, have you thought about your father?"

"I ...... I just ......" Xie Yunxi heard Xie Yu mention this matter, he was originally in a state of confusion, and now he is even more overwhelmed.

"Do you want to test Bronze, or test Zhishui?" Xie Yu looked at him, his vision blurred.

Xie Yunxi lowered his head and didn't speak, Xie Yu glanced elsewhere, and said leisurely: "You have grown up, you are about to start a family, you are responsible for your actions, and no one can buy your willfulness anymore." The people around you who really love and trust you will leave you. You should know the consequences of eating peanuts by mistake, not only if you are not feeling well, but also by the people around you. It was for some purpose of yours that for so many years, the only dereliction of duty in Bronze, I rewarded him with thirty lashes. ”

"It's my own business. It has nothing to do with him, why do you want to punish him?" Xie Yunxi stood up in surprise.

"What I confessed, something happened to you. If he doesn't do it, he will be punished for whatever reason. So do you understand now? One of your inadvertent actions can involve other people, and even rise to human life. Xie Yu's theory came out, Xie Yunxi didn't want to listen to it at all, he immediately turned around and walked out of the study, leaving Xie Yu alone without looking back.

The bronze room was full of imperial doctors, and Yifeng and Nangong Yulu couldn't help, because Xie Yu's words should be treated like a prince, and these imperial doctors who didn't do anything all year round personally cleaned the blood stains for bronze, all of them carefully. The wound on the bronze body was covered with medicated gauze, and it was soaked with blood many times. Imperial Physician Liu looked at the wounds on his body, and couldn't help but wrinkle: "Lord Bronze, if you are in pain, you have to say it, you don't say a word." It is difficult to distinguish between the lower officials. ”

The bronze was fiddled with by them, not saying a word, nor shouting a word of pain. He kept looking at the sky outside the window, and the sweat on his forehead was absorbed by the gauze. At this time, a small servant came in and beckoned Nangong Yulu out, and he looked up at her original direction. Seeing the hollowness in the bronze eyes, Yifeng glanced at Nangong Yulu, who was talking to the little servant outside the door, as if he understood something.

Suddenly, Xie Yunxi's figure broke into Yifeng's sight, he gasped into the room and sat in front of the bronze. When Bronze saw Xie Yunxi, his eyes immediately dodged: "Little Lord, this matter is my dereliction of duty...... to let you ...... Never again, Bronze knows it's wrong......"

Xie Yunxi frowned, he never thought that the first thing Bronze said when he saw him was to apologize?

"Last night...... The little princess took care of you all night...... I haven't closed my eyes...... You should go and see her...... Bronze's life isn't worth much......"

Yifeng felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart, Yin Lingwei originally worked hard for Xie Yunxi, but their wages were the highest in the whole house, if someone died in the office, the palace would deal with the aftermath and compensate their families. stripped of his original name and identity, and lived around the little prince for the rest of his life. Most people don't choose to do this job at all, but despite this, it's still attractive. For example, Yifeng, his family is poor, and in order to take care of his two younger sisters, he sold himself to Xie Yunxi for this high salary.
