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

One of them stretched out his hand, blocked Lu Yan's way, and said jokingly: "You dumb man, how dare you be so rude to the prince."

Lu Yan looked at the person who spoke with a slightly cold look in his eyes. How stupid must the other person be to think that his status was higher than Lu Yan's?

However, before he could make any move, another person jumped out, pointed at Lu Yan and cursed: "How dare you glare at my young master? Are you tired of living?" At this time, a lot of people who were watching the fun had gathered around, pointing at Lu Yan.

Lu Yan felt annoyed, but his good upbringing enabled him to suppress his anger. He turned around and prepared to leave.

"Wait!" the prince suddenly shouted loudly, with a hint of anxiety and dissatisfaction in his voice.

However, Lu Yan had no intention of stopping. He continued walking forward, seemingly completely ignoring the prince's call.

Lu Yan thought to himself: This prince is such a troublemaker! Nothing good happens every time I meet him.

At this moment, he just wanted to get away from here as soon as possible and avoid having any connection with the prince.

Just as Lu Yan was about to speed up his pace, an unexpected situation happened - he turned around and saw Emperor Xuan Yicheng walking towards him angrily.

I don’t know how much I just heard.

The emperor had a gloomy face, a frown on his face, and angry light flashing in his eyes.

His steps were firm and powerful, and every step seemed to carry an invisible pressure.

Faced with such an aggressive emperor, Lu Yan couldn't help but feel nervous and uneasy.

Lu Yan secretly groaned in his heart: This is bad, looking at Xuan Yichen's expression, he is obviously very angry.

"It seems that this prince will not have a good ending." Lu Yan watched him walk over without moving.

The person behind him saw Lu Yan turning around and about to leave, and quickly raised his hand to stop him, but before his hand touched Lu Yan's shoulder, a figure suddenly rushed in front of him and pulled him into his arms.

Then, the figure began to scold: "Are you stupid? Can't you even run away when bitten by a mad dog?"

After hearing this, Lu Yan couldn't help but smile. Faced with such a strange adjective, he really had no idea what to do. After all, although the words used by the speaker were a bit exaggerated, they were indeed very appropriate and vivid.

The prince, who had just been so aggressive and ready to cause trouble, stood there in a daze.

As the eldest son of Prince Shao's Mansion, he would naturally follow his father into the palace to attend the banquet, and naturally had the honor of meeting His Majesty.

At this moment, when he saw the emperor following closely beside Lu Yan, a feeling of fear and doubt suddenly surged in his heart——

The prince's face turned extremely ugly. He could never have imagined that this seemingly ordinary mute could actually gain the favor of the emperor.

He couldn't help but regret his impulsive behavior just now. No matter what Lu Yan's status in the palace was, bullying Lu Yan in front of the emperor was a slap in the face of the royal family.

"Your Majesty..." The prince spoke tremblingly, trying to explain something.

However, the emperor didn't even look at him, and said coldly: "If you dare to be rude to Lu Yan, I will not forgive you easily." After that, he took Lu Yan's hand and walked towards the Prince Shao's Mansion.

The prince stood there in a daze, his heart filled with regret and fear. He knew that he might have gotten into big trouble this time. The people around him were whispering, surprised by this sudden scene.

Looking at the emperor and Lu Yan's departing backs, the prince secretly regretted it, but now he could only follow them back to the palace.

Lu Yan said to Xuan Yicheng, "Forget it. We have to go release Kongming lanterns later. It will be too late later."

Xuan Yicheng glanced at the people who were following him timidly and said, "I'll send someone to the palace."

He compromised and decided not to go with them. He left with Lu Yan to fly sky lanterns. The prince watched helplessly as the emperor ordered people to follow him to the palace.

He left with Lu Yan.

The two came to the river, where there were fewer people. Xuan Yichen signaled the people around him to take out the Kongming lanterns that had been prepared long ago.

Lu Yan took the Kongming lantern and unfolded it carefully. He stared at the exquisite pattern on the lantern with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

With the help of Xuan Yicheng, the Kongming lantern slowly rose into the night sky.

Lu Yan made a wish silently. He looked up at the sky, his heart full of anticipation for his future with Xuan Yichen.

At this time, Xuan Yicheng gently patted Lu Yan's shoulder and asked, "What wish did you make?" Lu Yan smiled but did not answer. Xuan Yicheng did not ask any more questions, as he knew that some wishes were kept in the heart.

As the Kongming lantern flew higher and higher, the two men followed it with their eyes until it disappeared into the night sky.

Lu Yan didn't know about these things. After he returned home, Xuan Yicheng was furious at the secret guards who were responsible for protecting his safety.

It was obvious that Lu Yan was being bullied by others, but none of these secret guards showed up to help him out of the predicament.

At the same time, the Prince Shao's Mansion also submitted an answer that satisfied the emperor. The prince was sentenced to twenty strokes of the cane and was banned from going out for three months as punishment.

Lu Yan didn't pay attention to it. The system was telling him these as jokes, otherwise he would not have known what was happening.

Some time later, a New Year banquet was held in the palace, and Lu Yan and Xuan Yicheng went there together.

At the banquet, Lu Yan met the prince again. His injuries seemed to have healed, but he still looked listless and not in good spirits.

Lu Yan didn't care about it. He just felt that he deserved it. After all, he was also responsible for the fact that he couldn't speak at the beginning.

However, the prince took the initiative to find him. The prince apologized to Lu Yan, expressed his regret, and expressed his willingness to make peace with Lu Yan.

Lu Yan knew that it was his father, Prince Shao, who forced him to apologize. After all, the other party would never have thought that the emperor seemed to attach great importance to him.

At the same time, he also knew that if Lu Yan hadn't stopped him, the emperor would have come directly to his door.

Lu Yan gladly accepted the prince's apology, but did not say much, and automatically ignored the other party's words that tried to find out the emperor's intentions.

The New Year banquet was decorated with lanterns and colorful lights, and the whole palace was filled with a joyful and peaceful atmosphere. People laughed and talked happily, wished each other a happy new year, and celebrated this moment of reunion together.

When the banquet was over, Lu Yan left with the emperor and returned to the palace where Lu Yan lived.

The two walked side by side, occasionally talking in low voices, but more often they just quietly enjoyed this quiet time.

After entering the palace, Xuan Yichen suddenly reached out and hugged Lu Yan tightly in his arms.

His tall and straight body completely wrapped around Lu Yan from behind.

"I will naturally be with you during the New Year." Xuan Yicheng said softly, his tone revealing endless tenderness and affection. His voice was low and magnetic, as if it could penetrate one's soul.

Lu Yan was slightly startled, and a feeling of emotion welled up in her heart. She turned around, stroked Xuan Yicheng's face, and responded: "I also hope to spend this wonderful festival with you every year."
