Chapter 99
He melted into the water-colored mountains and rivers ink painting, while she stood in the most vivid scenery after the drizzle.

Chu Xunyang clutched the handle of the umbrella in his hand vigorously, but didn't say anything about returning it, he just said: "In a moment——do you want to rush back to the palace?"

Just now, she had actually noticed the unconcealable tiredness in the smile on Lord Yanling's face. It would take an hour and a half to travel from the palace to the capital, and he would wait here to find her. He must have been to the East Palace first to find out. I will be here, and there will be no less than two hours of tossing after this exchange.

And Lord Yanling indeed entered Beijing last night on a whim.

Regarding the secret letter exchange between the emperor and the king of Mobei, Su Yi had already given him news. He originally wanted to delay it until he found out the specific situation before telling Chu Xunyang, but he never Thinking about it for a while, I couldn't find any loopholes at all.When Prince Rui went to visit Chu Yijian in the palace early yesterday morning, he vaguely revealed that the marriage with Mobei was about to be finalized in the next few days, so he couldn't wait any longer, and immediately said that he had returned to Beijing to buy medicinal materials and rushed back overnight.It's just that he entered the city in the middle of the night, so it's not easy to rush into the East Palace at night to find someone, and this morning because of Tuoba Huaian's secret investigation of Qianji Pavilion, he was blocked by Su Yi. , It's been two days and one night that I haven't closed my eyes.

Lord Yanling didn't think much about Chu Xunyang's words, but subconsciously said, "Do you have something you want me to bring to Young Lord Jane?"

"No!" Chu Xunyang pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment, and finally said nonchalantly, "The road outside the city may be difficult to walk on rainy days. If you are not in a hurry, you can wait until the rain stops tomorrow." Late."

Lord Yanling was startled, looking at the unclear look in her eyes through the rain curtain, he suddenly had an epiphany, a silent smile appeared on the brows of his eyes, he nodded and said: "Okay!"

The sound of carriages and horses in the distance has been faintly heard.

"In a while, I will suggest to Prince Rui to take Young Prince Jian back to the palace to continue recuperating." Lord Yanling said, then changed the subject, and said with a bit of teasing, "I am a famous imperial hospital. As a deputy envoy, it’s not easy to just keep getting your salary for nothing, and don’t think about making progress.”

He can't give up on treating Chu Yijian halfway. Although the palace is not too far away from the capital, if he stays there, he will inevitably be beyond his reach for what happens in the capital.

"Oh!" Chu Xunyang responded, expressing that he knew.

So Lord Yanling didn't stay any longer, turned around, and within a moment his handsome and upright back was swallowed by the rain, drowning all traces of the past.

Chu Xunyang also turned around and walked to the side of the road holding an umbrella.

Qingluo and others drove over, and as soon as the carriage stopped, Qingluo was about to come out to pick her up with an umbrella, but she couldn't help but froze when she saw the paper umbrella in her hand.

"Go back!" Chu Xunyang smiled, handed her the umbrella, got into the car by himself, wiped off the water droplets on the skirt and sat down.

Qingteng climbed over to help, took a handkerchief and wiped her face, while staring at the purse on the table and muttered, "It was obviously left on the car, why didn't we see it at that time, it made us It’s a waste of time to run, princess, are you not wet? Do you want to find a set of clothes and change first? Don’t catch a cold.”

"It's just a little water on the clothes, it's okay." Chu Xunyang said, taking the purse and playing with it repeatedly in his hand.

Qing Luo ordered the coachman to drive back to the residence, then took the umbrella and came in.

When Qingteng saw it, she grabbed it immediately, opened it curiously, and looked at it: "When did you buy this umbrella? Why haven't I seen it before?"

Chu Xunyang usually doesn't care about the little things around her. Her clothes and jewelry are almost all handled by two maids. Most of the things they buy are bright colors. Such a plain oil-paper umbrella is naturally It aroused Qingteng's curiosity.

The surface of the umbrella was plain white, and only a small painting was sketched in black on one edge. The picture was simple, like a verdant forest, and there were two figures in the forest. Because the picture was too small, the facial features could not be distinguished clearly, but Judging from the clothes, it can be seen that they are a pair of men and women.In the painting, the man is leaning against the tree and playing the flute leisurely, while the woman in front of her is standing against the wind, with a corner of her skirt lifted up, but she is just a back view, but her posture is indescribably free and easy.

"Which painter did this come from? It's really vivid!" Qingteng couldn't help but praise.

The corners of Chu Xunyang's lips raised slightly, outlining a smile.

No one else knew about that picture, but she recognized it at a glance——

It was the Valley of Flames where she and Lord Yanling met for the second time.

Because the painting on this umbrella is only painted in a single ink color, it is difficult to recognize the thick and fiery maple forest, but the painter's skill is superb, and he has already achieved the essence of it. Anyway, she saw it at the first sight. It also vaguely seems to step into the valley of flames falling red all over the ground again from this painting.

She has always been deeply impressed by this unique and otherworldly place.

Qingteng was still intoxicated by the painting, while Qingluo looked at the weird smile on her lips thoughtfully.

After returning to the mansion, Chu Xunyang went to see Chu Yi'an immediately, and analyzed the news that Lord Yanling had revealed to her with Chu Yi'an one by one.

Chu Yi'an has been listening in silence, without any change in expression.

Chu Xunyang was suspicious, so he tried to call him: "Father!"

"Oh!" Chu Yi'an came back to his senses, and then he closed an official document in his hand, looked at her and said, "The secret relationship between the father and the king of Mobei, in fact, I have got some secrets from my side before." information."

Chu Yi'an was able to sit firmly in the East Palace, and the journey seemed to be uneventful, but in private, even Chu Xunyang didn't know exactly how many cards he had.

But Chu Xunyang was not surprised that he could get a glimpse of the emperor's news, but seeing the solemn look on Chu Yi'an's face, she also understood that this matter was not optimistic.

"Father doesn't know what the hell is going on between them?" Chu Xunyang asked.

Chu Yi'an glanced at her, and although he didn't answer directly, the slightly bitter eyes said everything.

Chu Xunyang felt even more uneasy. The father and daughter were silent for a while, and finally Chu Yi'an said first, "I will pay attention to this matter, and you don't have to take it too seriously. As for doing something that will set you on fire."

"En!" Chu Xunyang nodded, knowing that some things were beyond her control, but she didn't dare to relax in the slightest.

It is true that the emperor would not set himself on fire, but it is not ruled out that if his fire is brought in, it will not burn himself but burn others——

After experiencing the last bloody massacre in the previous life, Chu Xunyang would never believe that the emperor would care about the relationship between father and son for Chu Yi'an, and now they are in peace with each other, that's just because there is no opportunity to turn their faces.
