The moon is cold and the stars are sparse, and it turns cold in late autumn.

The night was still a bit cold, Xiaolin shivered as soon as he came out, the room was as warm as spring just now, it was because Housekeeper Chen took care of his weakness and deliberately lit a charcoal fire, and now he ran outside to form a temperature difference, so he let him Sneezed.

Inside, Chenfeng brought out a white fox fur cloak and put it on for him. Xiaolin buried his face in the fluffy collar, and immediately became much warmer.

Looking at the confusion in front of the courtyard, Chenfeng knew it. His prince is pampered and pampered on weekdays. He always travels by car and horse when he goes out. He has no habit of remembering the road. Even this kind of courtyard has a sense of direction at night. all lost.

Chen Feng sighed, the little adult looked like he put his hands behind his back, shook his head and said: "My lord, follow me."

Xiaolin touched his nose which was a little red from the cold, and didn't feel ashamed at all that he couldn't take care of himself when he went out, and followed him as if nothing had happened.

That Han Li was still standing at the door of the study, and when he saw Xiao Lin, he gave a military salute first, and then blocked him from entering the door in a business-like manner.

But this time the reason is a bit far-fetched, it is rare for a serious person like Han Li to say vaguely: "Your Majesty may be busy with military affairs, and he said that everyone will not be there...Your Majesty, please go back."

Xiaolin raised his eyebrows, looked at the general, and felt a little strange, as if his back was not as straight as in the daytime, and he was deliberately avoiding standing against the wall somewhere behind.

Thinking of the past times when he was making troubles in the palace, Xiaolin often received corporal punishment, Xiaolin saw this phenomenon at a glance, it can be said that he has rich experience, and asked: "Have you been punished?"

Han Li was surprised, pursed his lips, and didn't speak.

But Xiaolin saw a hint of dodge in those eyes, but there was determination on his sharp-edged face, and he didn't seem to want to explain it further.

"He's being punished," someone said at this moment from the corridor.It was Xiaofeng who came, he glanced at Han Li, smiled meaningfully at Xiao Lin and said, "General Han is very brave, he went to find Lord Hou to receive the punishment on his own, and received thirty army sticks, we stopped him Can't live."

Xiaolin heard the words and looked at the two of them, puzzled, "Why was he punished?"

Both of them were silent at the same time.

After Xiaolin finished speaking, he immediately understood what was going on. He thought it was because he broke into the study during the day and offended Gu Muchen, and he probably blamed Shang Hanli.

If this is the case, then wouldn't Gu Muchen be making a big deal out of a molehill?Or is he deliberately killing others to show others?

No matter what, this incident was caused by him in the end. Xiaolin was a little bit sorry, and he said to Han Li: "Your general is really an upright person, I admire it. Forget it, I just don't want to go in, so as not to implicate you again You are punished, since you are injured, you should take the medicine in time and don't hold back, I have good medicine for the wound, and I will let Chenfeng send you some."

As he spoke, he looked at Chenfeng and motioned him to go back to get the medicine and send it. Chenfeng remembered what happened during the day and still harbored resentment towards this cold-faced general, but he didn't dare to disobey the prince's explanation, so he had to go reluctantly.

Han Li was a little surprised, he was stunned for a while, he didn't pretend to refuse, he cupped his fists and said: "Thank you, my lord, for your compassion."

Xiaofeng smiled, but he didn't expect this lord to be quite talkative, so he said: "My lord, it's getting late and it's cold outside, I'll send you back to rest."

Xiao Lin smiled, then nodded and followed back. Before leaving, he suddenly thought of something, so he turned to the door and said loudly: "Since Lord Hou is busy with military affairs, I won't bother you, don't be too tired , Otherwise, I will feel bad for my husband. Also, if you feel that you will disturb me if you come back too late, you will definitely not blame you for staying here as your husband. "

These words had a lot of meaning, and the two of them had subtle expressions when they heard it, but they both knew that their Lord Marquis was deliberately ignoring the Seventh Prince, but considering his status, he couldn't be bothered to scold him, so they had to hide from him.

But now whether the prince called himself "husband" was deliberately trying to dissuade his lord Hou, or he wanted to save some face from being neglected, others did not know.

But in front of their Lord Hou, who dared to express his heart so bluntly, this prince might be No.1.

Gu Muchen, who has an insight into everything outside, is on the huge military sand table that has just been set up in the house, playing with the hills, cities and marked flags inside. After hearing this, his hands paused slightly, and he raised his eyes and glanced at it. , then turned a deaf ear and continued with the matter in hand.

For three consecutive days, Gu Muchen did not enter Xiaolin's house again, and it was obvious that he was sleeping in a separate room with him. No matter how Xiaolin tried to whitewash the peace, he could not stop the growing discussions from the servants in the house.

At first Xiaolin was able to find someone in the study room, but they were all rejected because they were practicing kung fu or busy with military affairs and could not be disturbed, or the person was just busy in the academy until night, and sometimes he disappeared, even during the day. .

No matter how stupid Xiao Lin is, he still knows that that guy is hiding from him on purpose, and made it clear that he intends to get along with him in the future.

The two Xiaofeng brothers and sisters who were guarding outside were a little worried. Although Canyue didn't show it on the surface, she liked it in her heart. Thinking that Lord Hou treated this prince so coldly, it meant that he didn't like it anymore. It seemed that he still had a chance to get Xiaofeng. Lord Hou's heart.

The two of them were adopted by the old lord since they were young, and grew up with the young lord. Canyue considered herself to be a childhood sweetheart with Gu Muchen, and had secretly promised him since she was a child. Compared with her?

Xiaolin was sitting on a chair in the room, pinching the center of his brow with one hand, obviously a little irritable, Chenfeng was still chattering about how he would complain to the Queen Mother tomorrow, but he noticed that his face was obviously not in a good mood, so he didn't dare to speak anymore Annoyed him.

Xiao Lin knew that this stalemate with Gu Muchen was not an option. The two of them were married but did not have the same room. The Empress Dowager's hope that he could suppress qi diseases through joint cultivation was obviously going to be in vain.

There is also the invisible gap between the two of them that cannot be bridged. So far, Xiaolin has felt powerless and does not know where to go. After thinking about it, he decided to make it clear in person, so as not to let the relationship become more and more indifferent. down.

That night, when Gu Muchen returned to the mansion, Xiaolin asked Xiaofeng to prepare in advance, and arranged for his servants to set up a table of wine and food in Xiyuan Nuange, and asked Canyue to invite Gu Muchen on the grounds that he had something important to discuss. Sat at a table waiting in anticipation.

Seeing that the moon was in the middle of the sky, Canyue's reply when she came was——Gu Muchen was exhausted from going out to do errands today and had already gone to bed, and he had something to talk to him tomorrow.

Xiaolin waited all night, seeing the hot food on the table turn from hot to cold, and the warm wine on the stove almost boiled dry, and he was full of expectations, but what he waited for was the result of being ignored, How could this make him not angry?

He tightened and loosened the cup in his hand, tried his best not to vent his anger, and asked calmly, "Does the Marquis know that tomorrow he will enter the palace to meet the Queen Mother and the Holy Majesty?"

Canyue didn't actually go to send a message, but guessed that Lord Hou would definitely not come to the appointment, so why did she bother to invite him?Maybe it will make Lord Hou unhappy.

Hearing the words, he said: "My father-in-law came to deliver a message in the morning, and Steward Chen was also present. I must have already told Lord Hou."

Xiao Lin was so depressed that he let out a sigh, and waved for people to leave. By the way, he asked Xiaofeng to arrange for someone to remove the food and drink, and went back to the bedroom by himself.

Seeing Xiaolin walking away sadly and sadly was especially disappointing, which made people feel unbearable, and Xiaofeng felt a little sympathetic in his heart.

The angry Chen Feng finally couldn't help cursing at Xiaofeng and the two: "Your Lord Hou is too much, my prince put down his posture and waited here for a whole night, how dare he not come? These days the prince is here I will remember how many grievances I have suffered! I will let the Empress Dowager know about this, and I will definitely punish your Marquis for neglecting the royal family, especially that arrogant Marquis of Wu An, hmph!"

Xiaofeng couldn't bear to see Xiaolin's lost look just now, and frowned when he heard this, and looked worriedly at Chenfeng who ran out angrily.

But Canyue next to her looked anxious, Xiaofeng asked strangely: "Canyue, what's wrong with you?"

Canyue didn't expect that this matter would get to the point where the Queen Mother was there. She just wanted the prince to settle down and be a nominal Mrs. Hou in the Hou Mansion, so that he could get rid of his other thoughts about Gu Muchen. Listen After finishing what the little boy said, it was to harm the Houfu, so he was anxious to tell the matter.

Xiaofeng's face changed after hearing this, he knew the girl's thoughts on the young master, but he didn't expect her to be so bold as to spread a false message, and angrily scolded: "Canyue, you are such a fool!"

Canyue was so anxious that she wanted to cry: "Brother, what should we do now?"

While there was still room for redemption, Xiaofeng hurried to the study and told Gu Muchen about it.
