Linluo sunset

Leng Xizhao lay on the bed listening to Xu Siting's knock on the door, feeling helpless and depressed, so she strolled down to open the door.

Xu Siting earnestly said: "Master, I am doing it for your own good..."

"I'm-so-tired-ah!" Leng Xizhao pretended to be dazed with her eyes half drooped: "If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it tomorrow."

"All right, young master, go to bed early." Xu Siting sighed in his heart, and reached out to close the door for him, just wondering what the hell was going on tonight?My young master has always been foolishly fond of Xi Tenglin, so it's not surprising to hug him, but Xi Tenglin has always said that he doesn't like the young master, why is he so enthusiastic all of a sudden... I can't figure it out... I can't figure it out...

Leng Xizhao returned to the room, not wanting to sleep at all. The hot water that the servants brought into the room for washing had cooled slightly, but she was still reluctant to wash off the traces of tenderness that Xi Tenglin had left on her mouth and face just now. She would never like herself in her life, but she never thought that happiness would come so easily. Leng Xizhao was sitting by the window sill laughing foolishly, when suddenly she heard two maidservants whispering outside the window.

"I'm exhausted after a busy day. Why doesn't the third prince want us to rest, but insists on us staying here." A voice complained.

"The person who lives here is the envoy of Qianlang Kingdom, so he must not be neglected." Another voice said: "The third prince has put a lot of effort into him."

"Well, I can see it too. It's delicious, delicious, and easy to use, and I specially transferred someone from my Linfeng Palace. Does the third prince really have a heart for him?"

"How is it possible? When did you see who the third prince liked? Miss Su Shui's beauty is so beautiful and the prince doesn't like it. How could she fall in love with a man?"

"Then why did the prince treat him so well?"

"You don't know this. The second prince and the third prince have been fighting fiercely over the years. If the third prince has Qianlang Tianzi's brother-in-law as a bargaining chip, the chances of winning will be greater. Of course, you have to pretend to like it." Cheng, I heard that it is because of this that the king finally made up his mind to pass the throne to him."

"That's it... No wonder, I also said why the third prince keeps so many beauties and doesn't want to be so nice to a man, so he has other intentions?"

"That's enough, that's all for you and me to talk about, don't tell anyone else."

"Of course, sister, don't worry. I'm not stupid. If I say this, my head will be beheaded... Oh, it's raining. Let's go into the house quickly."

……

The footsteps outside the window gradually faded away, but Leng Xizhao inside the window was completely stunned. In the sky, the rumbling thunder suddenly suppressed, but she no longer cared about her fear. It seemed that something was slowly peeling off in her heart. Bit by bit, piece by piece, painful suffocation.

On the other side, Xi Tengfeng and Zhe Qing looked at the two maidservants who came to report the news and waved their hands in satisfaction: "Go down and receive the reward."

"Thank you, Second Prince." The maid left happily, Xi Tengfeng stretched out her hand and patted Zheqing: "Is this trick... useful?"

"Of course." Zheqing nodded: "That Leng Xizhao is a double-edged sword. If Xi Tenglin can use it, we can use it too. And if it is used well, it will be much better than our previous strategy of rebellion."

"Then our original plan..." Xi Tengfeng frowned.

Zhe Qing smiled: "The previous strategy was a last resort. Of course it would be better to have something else. Don't worry, Second Prince, that young master Leng may not be able to sleep tonight."

"But what if he doesn't really like the third child? Or if he doesn't care at all, then wouldn't our work be wasted?" Xi Tengfeng was still worried.

"Then we have to kill him." A gloomy look flashed in Zheqing's eyes.

"Is it appropriate?" Xi Tengfeng hesitated: "He is an envoy sent by the emperor, if he dies in Xichuan, what shall we do?"

"Tomorrow the king will announce that the throne will be passed on to Xi Tenglin, right?" Zhe Qing suddenly said.

Xi Tengfeng was taken aback for a moment, then gritted his teeth: "That old man."

"This is not necessarily a bad thing." Zhe Qing stroked his beard, "Leng Xizhao is deeply favored by the emperor, so if he really dies, the king of Xichuan will be in big trouble."

Xi Tengfeng was stunned, and said happily: "In this way, even if the emperor refuses to decree to abolish his throne, he will definitely find trouble with him. Taking advantage of the trouble, our chances of winning the incident will be greatly increased! High opinion, if I ascend the throne in the future, the military adviser will definitely be the number one hero!"

Zheqing lowered his head and smiled, but he was contemptuous in his heart. He chose to take refuge in Xi Tengfeng at the beginning because he was really a fool, and his whole body could only be used as a prince. Everything in the world is subject to change. Only in the hands of his Xiteng family?

Early the next morning, Gongda came to report to Xi Tenglin: "Young Master, everything in the palace and the guards is normal today, there is no change, and there is no movement at Xi Tengfeng's end."

Xi Tenglin walked out while adjusting his clothes: "The palace is full of our people. I don't believe he can make any big waves. He can bear his temper. I can't bear it. When I take over the throne, the first thing is to force He turned against me."

"Where are you going, young master?" Gunda asked behind him.

Xi Tenglin waved his hand and walked straight to Leng Xizhao's residence.

As soon as he entered the door, Xi Tenglin saw Leng Xizhao sitting on a chair blankly, with Xu Siting standing beside him with an anxious face.

"Third Prince, you are here." Xu Siting seemed to see a savior, thinking that Xi Teng's arrival was so timely, and when he got up early this morning, he saw the young master sitting here stupidly, no matter how much he asked, he didn't speak Xu Huwei was dumbfounded, wondering if the young master was still angry at him for interrupting the two of them last night?

"What's wrong?" Xi Tenglin squatted in front of Leng Xizhao and looked at him: "Unhappy?"

"Talk slowly, I'll go and see for breakfast." Xu Siting walked out as soon as he lifted his foot.

Seeing Xi Tenglin, Leng Xizhao pursed her lips and smiled, with a hoarse voice: "Linlin, you are here."

"Ill?" Xi Tenglin was taken aback, hugged him into his arms and touched his forehead: "Why is your face so ugly?"

"No." Leng Xizhao avoided his hand: "What time is it, should we go?"

"It's still early, let's eat first." Xi Tenglin looked at Leng Xizhao worriedly: "You are a doctor yourself, did you prescribe some medicine for yourself, did you catch a cold?"

"I'm fine." Leng Xizhao shook her head, hesitated for a moment, bit her lips and said, "You...do you really want to be king?"

"Yeah." Xi Tenglin nodded honestly: "Why do you ask this suddenly?"

"It's nothing." Leng Xizhao avoided his eyes: "Go and eat, I'm hungry."

Xi Tenglin followed behind him a little puzzled, what's the matter?

The men in the Northwest are all bold and forthright, so the birthday banquet of King Xiteng did not have too many complicated etiquettes. A bunch of people were chatting and drinking lively, and it was more like a party. When the birthday is coming to an end , Xi Tenglin received the seal and silver scimitar that symbolized power from King Xi Teng, and since then he has been the youngest king on the Xichuan Desert, looking down on the common people with a high spirit.

Leng Xizhao looked at his high-spirited side face, lowered her head and smiled wryly, he had finally become the king, so it's time for him to go back, if he didn't go back, the emperor and Hao Yang should miss themselves.

After the banquet, Xi Tenglin stayed in the hall to deal with other matters, and Leng Xizhao led Xu Siting back slowly.

"Master, are you still angry with me?" Xu Siting tugged at Leng Xizhao: "Don't be angry, I was also afraid that you would suffer a disadvantage last night."

"I'm not angry, thank you last night." Leng Xizhao turned to look at Xu Siting: "Let's go back tomorrow morning."

"Ah? So anxious." Xu Siting frowned: "Xi Tenglin has just inherited the throne, and tomorrow at noon he will hold a banquet to entertain the envoys who came to congratulate him. .”

"Then the day after tomorrow." Leng Xizhao didn't want to talk anymore: "We'll go back the day after tomorrow, I'm tired."

Xu Siting rubbed his head to keep up, he didn't look like he was angry with himself, what happened to the young master?

Xi Tenglin finally took care of all the things, and went to find Leng Xizhao even if he didn't even have time to eat.

"My young master is asleep." Xu Siting finally stopped guarding Xi Tenglin like a thief, and raised his chin in the room: "It's uncomfortable."

"Are you really sick?" Xi Tenglin frowned, walked gently to the bed and looked down at him, and saw that he was sleeping with his eyes closed. He raised his hand to touch his forehead, but it wasn't very hot. Are you tired of taking care of your elder brother?

Leng Xizhao closed her eyes and forced herself to pretend to be asleep. She felt a heat on the corner of her mouth, so she turned around and tucked her head into the quilt.

Xi Tenglin couldn't help but laugh, this little guy didn't let him kiss him when he fell asleep, seeing that he was sleeping just right, he was reluctant to wake him up, so he covered him with a quilt and got up and went back to his Linfeng Palace.

Hearing Xi Tenglin's footsteps getting farther and farther away, Leng Xizhao hugged the quilt with red eye circles.

After a sleepless night, Leng Xizhao woke up the next day feeling a little dizzy, Xu Siting looked at Leng Xizhao who could bump into a pillar even when walking: "Master, are you alright?"

Xi Tenglin's banquet was set in a large open space behind Linfeng Hall. Leng Xizhao sat aside and looked at the dancer in the middle in a daze.

In Linfeng Hall, Su Shui packed up and hurried out with her pipa in her arms. Those girls were all slow-moving. If she missed the singing and dancing for a while, she had to teach them a lesson when she came back. Xi Tenglin was indifferent to herself these days No matter what happens today, he has to grab his heart back to himself.

"Miss Su." Xi Tengfeng was too lazy to attend the banquet, and he still had plans for the meeting, so he deliberately mumbled for a long time before walking slowly, but unexpectedly met Su Shui on the way, so he leaned over to tease : "Going in such a hurry?"

Su Shui dodged him and saluted slightly: "Second Prince, Ah Shui has something else to do, so I'll take my leave first."

"Don't go!" Xi Tengfeng's complexion changed, and he took her into his arms fiercely: "Is it worth seeing this king every time as if seeing a ghost?"

Su Shui didn't shout, but just looked at Xi Tengfeng contemptuously: "I belong to the third prince, and he is the current king."

"You...!" Xi Tengfeng was annoyed.

Su Shui broke away from him and smiled: "Ah Shui is a girl, so naturally she follows a capable man. Second prince, please respect yourself." After speaking, he turned and left with his pipa in his arms. Qing came out and patted him on the shoulder: "If you can't bear it, you will make trouble, and the prince is right to let her go."

"I'll let her be arrogant for a few more hours." Xi Tengfeng's eyes were gloomy: "Tell them, I will clean up this woman together later."

"Yes." Zhe Qing bowed his head and accepted the order. Anyway, this woman is useless, and there is no loss if she is killed. Xi Tengfeng has a reckless and impulsive personality, so it is better to follow his temperament.

All the way to the banquet, Su Shui breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was not too late, so after giving the salute, he sat down with his pipa in his arms and began to sing. He was the stunning Jiangnan oiran, but today he dressed up specially. The people who came out looked at her one after another. Su Shui looked at the undisguised gaze of the people, his face was calm, and he was a little proud in his heart. He secretly turned his head to look at Xi Tenglin, but was slightly taken aback--- --I saw that his eyes had never been on him, but he had been looking at a white-clothed young man on the first left. I had heard people mention it before, and he was the envoy of Emperor Qianlang?
