As soon as Li Xuan entered the door, he asked the maid who was cleaning the courtyard.
While they were sprinkling water in the yard to cool down, the maid named Xiaoqing was startled. The brocade handkerchief wrapped in ice fell out of her arms, and she said shivering: "Here, in the inner house..."
Li Xuan strode inside, and when he was about to pass through the Moon Gate, he turned back and asked, "How many days has your lordship been back?"
"Yes, it's been several days..." The maid was startled and still couldn't recover.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince drove straight into the Viscount's Mansion. As if he was in a deserted place, no one among the servants and guards dared to stop him. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had been coming to the Viscount's Mansion frequently in the past few months to ask questions. Who among them didn't know His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?
Who dares to be presumptuous in front of him?
Li Yi was lying on the rocking chair. On the table was a jug of grape wine that had just been re-frozen. There were huge pieces of ice placed in the four corners of the room. The room was cool and there was no feeling of stuffiness at all. Xiaohuan removed the grapes from the ice water.
Take it out, peel it off, and then carefully put it into his mouth...
It was at this moment that Li Xuan, who was sweating profusely and looking haggard, appeared in front of him.
When Li Xuan stepped into the room, he happened to see Li Yi lying leisurely on the rocking chair. The little maid put grapes into his mouth. He had worked extremely hard these days, but he was enjoying it so much - his conscience would not
Does it hurt?
"It's too much, it's too much, you..."
Such a sharp contrast made Li Xuan suddenly feel an unknown fire in his heart. He pointed at Li Yi and was about to speak out to condemn him, but suddenly he shuddered. He went from unbearably hot to extremely cool, only one step away. The strong contrast made him stunned for a moment.
There——
"Grape wine is better served chilled!" Sitting on a rocking chair next to Li Yi, Li Xuan held a wine bottle in one hand, took a beautiful sip, closed his eyes, and said with emotion after a while.
It has been a long time since he drank iced grape wine. Since the number of ice gifts in the palace dropped sharply, iced grape wine has become a luxury item. The princess was afraid of the heat, so he sent all the ice to her room.
At night - sleeping in her room of course.
At this time, he didn't bother to blame Li Yi. He just felt that his whole body was relaxed. He was willing to lie here for the rest of his life.
At the same time, he finally began to understand why Li Yi had a soft spot for such a chair.
"You have been back for so long, why don't you send someone to report to Zifu?" Li Xuan lay on his back, looking at the roof, even his voice was a little weak.
"Before you bother me, I have to feel comfortable for a few days..." The second pot of grape wine was snatched away by Li Xuan. This impolite guy actually drank from the spout. Royal etiquette has been learned from dogs.
, Li Yi said angrily.
"Are you comfortable enough?" Li Xuan asked.
Li Yi asked back: "Since you are here, does it make any difference whether it is enough or not?"
"No." Li Xuan said honestly: "Your Majesty is ill and won't recover for a month. You have to go to the palace with me to see him."
"Even the imperial doctor can't help, what can I tell?" Li Yi signaled Xiaohuan not to feed him, and put his hands behind his head and said.
"The imperial doctor can't do anything, but that doesn't mean you can't do anything either." Li Xuan turned to look at him and said, "Time is urgent, we will leave right away..."
Li Xuan was like a broom star to him. The moment he saw him, Li Yi knew that his good days were over——
There were two ice buckets placed in the spacious carriage. Li Yi squeezed a piece of crushed ice and put it in his mouth, making a crunching sound. He looked at Li Xuan in surprise and asked: "We haven't seen each other for several months, how come your complexion has changed?"
It's so bad, could it be that the Crown Princess is really powerful? I'm not telling you, young people still need to know how to exercise restraint, otherwise you will regret it in the future."
It is said that the quieter a woman looks on the outside, the more "enthusiastic" she is on the inside. Seeing Li Xuan's appearance, Li Yi knew that there was some truth to this statement.
"Where did you get so much ice at home?" Li Xuan's mind was obviously not on that, and he stared at the ice bucket in the carriage and said.
"Made it myself." Li Yi leaned on the cushion and said lazily.
"Can you make ice in the middle of summer?" Li Xuan asked with wide eyes.
The carriage shook and made people feel dizzy. Li Yi closed his eyes and said, "You can fly into the sky, why can't I make ice in the summer?"
Li Xuan stopped worrying about this issue and said: "Well, I will send someone directly to your house to pick it up tonight. It is best to send some to the palace. The palace has been very nervous these days."
What is a bad friend? A friend who disrupts your life every time and always likes to use your own things as a favor. Li Xuan is a model in this regard.
The weather is hot. Although there is no holiday in the yamen, the ministers do not have to go to court every day. The Bowen Palace is unbearably hot. I heard from Li Xuan that three of the gentlemen who taught the princes and princesses fainted from the heat in two days, so these two days the palace
It's hard to see other people there.
Li Yi and Li Xuan got off the carriage in front of the palace gate, and happened to see several figures waiting at the door.
Seeing a few bald heads shining in the sun, Li Yi walked over and said with a smile: "Master Tanyin, long time no see."
"Amitabha, it turns out to be little donor Li Yi." Old monk Tanyin made a Buddha salute and said with a smile.
"Master, are you going to enter the palace?" Li Yi looked at several monks and asked.
These monks didn't even wear hats to cover up the scorching sun, fearing that their heads would suffer if they went back at night.
"We are waiting for His Majesty's call." Old monk Tanyin nodded and said.
The two of them didn't say a few words before a carriage came quickly from a distance. Several Taoist priests in green got out of the carriage and glanced at the monks lightly. Of course, they also took Li Yi in, just to guard the place.
After showing the sign, he entered the palace gate with great pride.
Li Yi Xindao deserves to be the state religion. The treatment of these Taoist priests is much better than that of monks. At least they don't have to stand at the gate of the palace to bask in the sun at noon.
"We still have important things to do. Master, we will talk about it another day." Li Xuan bowed to the old monk Tanyin, and then walked into the palace gate with Li Yi.
When passing by Bowen Hall, Li Yi subconsciously glanced in a certain direction. He didn't expect to be away from Beijing for so long this time. He didn't know how Yongning was doing recently...
This time, he was not disappointed. Looking from a distance, the little girl in palace clothes was sitting on the steps in the shadow, staring blankly ahead, still maintaining the familiar posture.
Li Yi had a smile on his face and walked quickly over there.
At this moment, a round figure suddenly appeared at the corner of the palace. Jin Wang Li Han quickly ran over, pulled Yongning's little face, and said loudly: "Humph, I don't know why my father always gives
You have so much ice, but the two of us combined don’t have as much as you. Give me half of your ice now, or I’ll beat you up!”
They are all princes and princesses, why is the ice allocated to Yongning always more than theirs? You must know that Yongning is a child without a mother, and His Highness Prince Jin feels very unbalanced.
Li Han pulled the little girl's face. It was strange that she was not as stupid as before this time. Even if she was bullied, she would not move. Instead, she raised her head and looked behind him.
"Humph, it's useless wherever you look. Apart from my father, who in the palace would..." Li Han said while turning his head.
"Uh..." Li Han made a strange sound in his throat.
Time seems to have stopped at this moment.
Suddenly, Li Han's hand suddenly moved away from Yong Ning's face as if bitten by a poisonous snake. Looking at the figure in front of him, his round face turned pale.
In the extremely hot weather, King Jin suddenly felt a little cold. In the clear sky, there seemed to be endless black clouds, gathering and rolling, pressing from right in front of him...
