Quick time travel: The system wants me to save the sick girl

During this period of time, no one knew whether it was because Xuan Yicheng was obstructing it or the empress dowager herself was no longer in a hurry to push this matter forward. In short, the matter of selecting a concubine for the emperor was never mentioned again.

In this way, the big stone that was hanging in Lu Yan's heart finally fell to the ground, and he could breathe a sigh of relief.

As the end of the year was approaching, the palace naturally began to prepare for various celebrations, and it was very lively for a while.

It goes without saying that the palace was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and even every corner of the palace was filled with a festive and peaceful atmosphere, which made people feel happy.

For Lu Yan, such a joyful atmosphere made him feel particularly relaxed and comfortable.

Lu Yan was strolling around when he suddenly saw Xuan Yichen not far ahead. He was wearing a royal blue gown, looking elegant and graceful. He had changed out of his court robes, and his simple and elegant attire unexpectedly attracted people's attention.

There was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes revealed a gentle and confident light.

Lu Yan's heart moved, and he walked towards him involuntarily. When he got closer, he heard Xuan Yicheng talking to the eunuch beside him, his voice was low and magnetic.

"Your Majesty, this year's celebration is truly unique." Ziqing said with a smile.

Xuan Yicheng nodded, "This is all thanks to everyone. I hope this celebration can bring happiness to everyone in the palace."

Lu Yan stood quietly aside, listening to their conversation.

He noticed that Xuan Yichen's eyes kept scanning the crowd around him, as if he was looking for something.

When his eyes met Lu Yan, he smiled slightly, as if greeting him.

Lu Yan lowered his head shyly, but a warm feeling surged in his heart. He knew that there was a special tacit understanding between him and Xuan Yicheng, and they could understand each other's feelings without words.

"Why doesn't the emperor come in?" It was the coldest time of the year at that moment, and the weather was extremely cold. When night fell, a few small snowflakes often fell, but they had basically melted away by the next morning.

"I knew you would show up here, so I've been waiting here." Xuan Yichen gently took Lu Yan's hand and walked slowly into the hall. At this time, the whole palace was filled with a rich and warm festive New Year atmosphere.

The same is true for the palace where Lu Yan lives. It is decorated in an extremely lively manner and is full of a lively atmosphere at first glance.

After the Emperor dismissed his attendants, Ziqing respectfully presented two bottles of fine wine and then quietly left.

Lu Yan and Xuan Yichen were the only two people left in the courtyard. Lu Yan looked at the person beside him in silence.

Xuan Yichen lifted the wine jug with one hand, and gently embraced Lu Yan's slender waist with the other hand. He leaped onto the roof as lightly as a swallow, and sat down safely where they had stayed last time.

This time, Lu Yan no longer felt scared or frightened. Instead, he took the initiative to stretch out his arms and wrap them around Xuan Yichen's waist, then sat on the roof side by side with him.

The last time Lu Yan was carried and sat on it, it happened suddenly. At that time, the two of them were not like they are now.

Lu Yan naturally leaned against the person next to him. Xuan Yicheng held Lu Yan's hand and asked, "Why is it so cold?"

Lu Yan suddenly smiled, pulled his hand back, and said softly: "Maybe I'm afraid of the cold." After that, he took the wine jug in his hand, opened it and took a sip.

The wine went down his throat and turned into a warm current, dispelling some of the chill. Lu Yan turned his head to look at Xuan Yichen and found that he was staring at him intently.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" A blush appeared on Lu Yan's face, and he opened another pot of wine and handed it to him.

Xuan Yicheng smiled but didn't take it. Instead, he reached out and pushed Lu Yan's scattered hair behind her ears and said softly, "I just think you are particularly attractive today."

Lu Yan's heartbeat quickened, he lowered his eyes, not daring to look directly into Xuan Yichen's eyes.

At this moment, gorgeous fireworks bloomed in the night sky, illuminating the entire palace.

"Look." Xuan Yichen pointed to the sky and motioned Lu Yan to look.

Lu Yan raised his head and was amazed by the beautiful scenery before him.

The fireworks are like bright stars, blooming in the dark sky, forming beautiful patterns.

"It's so beautiful..." Lu Yan exclaimed sincerely.

"Not half as good as you." Xuan Yichen's gaze always stayed on Lu Yan, his eyes full of affection.

As a result, Lu Yan didn't dare to look him in the eye. Looking at the blooming fireworks, he felt particularly happy.

"We can release Kongming lanterns tomorrow. Let's go out of the palace tomorrow." Xuan Yichen looked at Lu Yan, knowing that the other party must want to go out too.

After all, this palace is too cold and can never warm people's hearts.

"Okay." Lu Yan nodded in agreement.

Xuan Yi took the wine and took two sips to dispel the coldness in his body.

After three rounds of drinks, both of their cheeks were slightly flushed.

Xuan Yicheng moved closer to Lu Yan and whispered, "Yan'er, thank you for spending this wonderful night with me." Lu Yan's heart was pounding, and he responded shyly, "Well... I'm very happy too."

At this moment, a firework bloomed in the sky, and the brilliant light shone on their faces.

Xuan Yicheng looked at Lu Yan, his eyes full of tenderness and love, "May our relationship be as beautiful and lasting as these fireworks." Lu Yan looked at Xuan Yicheng with emotion. He knew that this moment would become an eternal memory in their hearts.

As time passed, the fireworks gradually faded and tranquility returned to the night sky.

Xuan Yichen took Lu Yan's hand and said, "It's late, let's go back." Lu Yan nodded, and Xuan Yichen hugged Lu Yan and flew off the roof.

Walking into the palace, at least at this moment, Lu Yan was satisfied, at least at this time this person belonged to him.

The next day, Xuan Yicheng did as he said and took Lu Yan out of the palace. They had to wait until night to fly the sky lanterns, so the two of them wandered aimlessly on the street.

"Hey, isn't this my 'good brother'?" The tone of the person coming was sarcastic, full of sarcasm and disdain. Lu Yan couldn't help but frown and turned to look at the person coming.

The person who came was the prince of Shao Palace, and also his half-brother.

At this time, Xuan Yichen happened to leave to buy snacks for him. Lu Yan just walked a few more steps forward, but he never thought that he would meet this person here.

Xuan Yichen brought Lu Yan out without bringing his personal maid.

Lu Yan had no intention of getting entangled with this person and just wanted to leave, but the other party insisted on coming closer and he could not ignore it.

"Prince." Lu Yan spoke in a cold tone, with a faint expression as he wanted to leave.

The other party was as if he had seen a ghost, and said in surprise: "Wow, he can actually talk."

The other party was followed by many followers. Lu Yan originally wanted to avoid them and leave, not wanting to get entangled with them, but unexpectedly there was someone who was not tactful.
