Empress is a sick beauty

Ling Xi was reading a book alone in the room? He was so absorbed in reading that he forgot the time for a while, but a knock on the door finally brought him back to his senses.

He raised his head and looked out of the window, only to realize that the sky was getting dark, and then he saw the cakes in his hand standing there intact, looking extraordinarily bleak.

"Come in."

The door of the room was pushed open, and Yunyi and Lin Han walked back and forth into the room together.

Ling Xi was a little taken aback, he was still thinking about how it would be more appropriate to meet King Yi, but he didn't expect him to come by himself.

"I have seen Your Highness."

Yun Yi went straight to sit down opposite Ling Xi, quietly looked at the person in front of him, and saw that his expression was not normal, and he asked again, "I heard that you didn't eat at night, but you are not feeling well?"

"It's nothing, I'm just not hungry." Looking at his expression, Ling Xi couldn't see why, "Is your Highness feeling better?"

Yun Yi hesitated for a moment before realizing that he was asking himself? The matter of leaving the lunch table is strange to say, himself? It’s not good when you are bored in the room, but when you see people, you can do anything? up.

"It's much better, don't worry about it." Yun Yi took the teacup Ling Xi handed over, and said carefully, "The person you accepted a few days ago..."

Ling Xi couldn't help laughing, "Your Highness is really like the second uncle, always worrying. I don't need a servant, and I will find a chance to send him away."

I don't know if it was his illusion, but he actually felt that Yun Yi's complexion improved a lot after hearing what he said.

Yun Yi lowered the corners of her raised lips and ordered, "Lin Han, bring over the dim sum, and also, bring down all these stale dim sum."

Ling Xi just wanted to say that the snacks on the table are all new, so it can be seen that he is in a good mood, so let him go.

The colorful pastries on the table were replaced by delicate and small lotus flower cakes.Yun Yi deliberately pushed the plate towards Ling Xi, "It's impossible not to eat."

Ling Xi blinked, and shot back, "Your Highness didn't eat two meals."

Yunyi knew the reason? She casually picked up a piece of lotus cake and said, "Let's eat together."

The lotus flower crisp is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, especially the lotus flower crisp in front of him. The crispy heart seems to be specially sprinkled with honey. It melts in the mouth, sweet but not greasy.

A plate of dim sum was shared between two people, and the effort was swept away in a short while.While drinking tea, Yun Yi said, "Does Ling Xi want to go ashore?"

Ling Xi's eyes met his, and the two happened to coincide.It is rare to come to Hangzhou, of course, not only to appreciate the scenery of West Lake, but also to go shopping in the streets.

In the evening, the painting boat was moored by the lake. The emperor had issued an order a long time ago, and the juniors could make their own arrangements after dinner.So the two traveled together generously, looking for the busiest places to go.

Along the street are troupes performing juggling, interspersed with stalls selling all kinds of gadgets.

"Young master, don't you come to set a trap? If you win the trap, it's yours."

Ling Xi took a look into the crowd, and saw a dazzling array of small objects all over the floor, such as ceramics and wood carvings.Many people lined up, holding a bunch of bamboo rings in their hands, trying their best to put them on the favorite objects.It may be because the bamboo ring is too light. Even if someone catches something, the bamboo ring will bounce off quickly, and in the end it will be nothing.But the more this is the case, the more people will not give up, and they will fight and fail repeatedly.

"Mother, I want that little pig! I want it!" the little boy shouted as he held the woman's hand and danced.

The woman patted his head, "Hey, mother will buy you one later. We've tried it seven or eight times, and we can't get it right at all."

"No, I want this little pig!" the little boy said, and he was about to sob.

Ling Xi followed the direction he pointed? Looking over, there was indeed a palm-sized ceramic pig placed there.

He tilted his head slightly, and whispered in Yun Yi's ear, "Could your Highness help me get that little pig back?"

There was a numbness in his ears, Yunyi's eyes flickered, and he suppressed the inappropriate mood, and paid the money without saying a word.

The bamboo ring was shot, flitting through the crooked circles, and firmly placed on the pig's head, causing exclamations from all around.

The stall owner? Bring the ceramic pig over and say with a smile, "Young Master, you are very skilled. This is the first one I won today."

Ling Xi took the little pig, and turned it over to the little boy, "I'm seeing you off, let's go home with you mother."

The little boy blinked twice, hugged the little pig and smiled like a flower, "Thank you brother!"

The woman pulled the child over, "Thank you two young masters."

Ling Xi smiled, "It's a trivial matter, is there any fun place around here?"

The woman thought for a while, "The two of you are from other places, right? The most interesting place for us is the Town God's Temple on the east side of the street. You can burn incense and worship Buddha, ask for fortune-telling and fortune-telling, and fortune calculations are very effective. By the way, in the temple There is a hundred-year-old tree, people call it the Marriage Tree, the two young masters can go and have a look, or bring something back for the sweetheart."

He had never done such things as burning incense and praying to Buddha, asking for fortune-telling, but listening to what the woman said was interesting, so he wanted to take a look.

Sure enough, the Town God's Temple was busier than the street, especially the number of devout men and women who hung signs under the Marriage Tree.

It's just that they two men, he has no sweetheart, and he has never heard of King Yi's engagement, so it seems a bit out of place here.

Just when he was about to pull Yunyi to leave, a young monk suddenly passed by, not to mention walking, but standing still in front of the two of them, smiling and looking at each other, "Amitabha, the two benefactors? Don't you want a marriage?"

Ling Xi nodded and said, "Thank you little master, no need."

After the little monk? Take a step back and follow the two of them, "It's good to draw a lottery, really don't you want one?" Seeing that they are still unmoved, the little monk suddenly sniffed, and immediately began to cry, " The two benefactors? Pity the poor monk, it is not easy to get alms, and finally have the opportunity to sell marriage cards and red strings to earn some incense money, the two of you should do good deeds to accumulate virtue."

The two were given a headache by the little monk's reading, and Yun Yi gave him two taels of silver and successfully shut him up.

The little monk pocketed the silver and immediately returned to his initial indifference, "Thank you, benefactor? For your compassion, this is the red string and marriage card for the two of you."

Ling Xi couldn't help asking, "Myself? Does it work if you hang up the sign alone?"

The little monk rolled his eyes and said with an apologetic smile, "It works, of course it works, you two can hang it together, and Yue Lao will bless the two of you to join hands with the person you like as soon as possible after seeing it."

No matter what he said just now, he refused to leave, but now he got the money and slipped away faster than anyone else.

Ling Xi looked at the sign and the red rope, no matter how they thought they were cheated.

"Hang up?"

Yun Yi glanced down, then tied the two signs together with a red string, "Hang it up."

After Ling Xi heard this, she had no objection, at least it was bought for money, and it would be a pity to lose it.

The two wrote their own names and birthdays on the front of the sign. Ling Xi took a look and asked in surprise, "Your Highness is also born on the twelfth lunar month?"

Earlier he learned that King Yi and himself were in the same year, and now they know that they are in the same month, and the difference between their birthdays is only half a month.

Yun Yi picked up Ling Xi's sign, "The 25th of the twelfth lunar month, maybe it's fate."

Ling Xi laughed and said, "It's really fate."

I saw Yun Yi tapped his toes, jumped up, and easily hung the two signs to the highest position.

Seeing him fall back, Ling Xi smiled, "If I was really tricked, I can be regarded as pulling His Highness as a backing, it's not a loss."

Yun Yi stared at the smiling face of the person in front of him, dazed for a moment, and the doubts in his heart suddenly became clear.Since he can't bear Ling Xi marrying others, why not marry him?

Ling Xi suddenly spread her palms, "It seems...it's raining."

Yun Yi immediately came back to his senses, and indeed there were pattering raindrops falling, he stepped back and put his robe on Ling Xi's head, "Wait for me for a while."

"Hey!" Ling Xi wanted to speak out, but realizing that there were many people around him, he swallowed the word "Your Highness" back on his lips.

The rain was getting denser and denser, and most of the people didn't bring umbrellas, and they fled around in the drenching, so embarrassed.Ling Xi raised her eyes, and saw a familiar figure walking towards? herself? through the crowd.

Yun Yi stood beside Ling Xi, holding an oil-paper umbrella in her hand, "Let's go back."

Ling Xi tightened her robe so as not to be blown off by the wind, "OK."

Back on the painting boat, Ling Xi saw that Yun Yi's left shoulder was wet, and hurriedly urged him to go back to take a bath and change clothes.

"My lord, this servant will prepare hot water and ginger soup for you."

"No need, I didn't get wet." When the rain was small, it was covered by Yunyi's robe, and when the rain was heavy, Yunyi held an umbrella, so he didn't get wet at all.

Ah Jiu was still worried, "Be careful, my lord, think about it, if you fall ill along the way, even with Imperial Physician Li, you can only spend this Hangzhou trip in a boat."

Mentioning this point, Ling Xi took it for granted, so he didn't stop him again.

Clothes were hung on the screen, Ling Xi leaned against the barrel with his arms resting on the side of the barrel, allowing the warm water vapor to rise slowly, swirling in the sky like lingering smoke.

The warmth makes one drowsy, and Ling Xi struggled to keep her consciousness from falling asleep.

"My lord, His Royal Highness King Yi is here."

Ling Xi cheered up quickly, "Let Your Highness come in."

Yun Yi stepped into the room, in front of him was a black bamboo screen, the shadow of the man was vaguely reflected on the screen, the sound of water wafting softly into the ears, staining the roots of the ears red.

"Has your Highness finished washing?"

Yun Yi heard the sound and came back to her senses, "It's finished washing, you?, you? Haven't..."

"I didn't want to wash it at first, but that boy Ah Jiu said to take precautions before they happen."

Yun Yi himself? He found a chair and sat down, facing the screen, "What Ah Jiu said makes sense?"

As soon as the words fell, Ling Xi suddenly got up and stepped out of the barrel, picked up the clothes with one hand and put them on her body.

The figure on the screen gradually became clear, and the rustling sound of dressing could be heard beside her ears. Yun Yi pursed her lips lightly, her throat slipped slowly, and she quickly lowered her eyes.

"I'm sorry to keep His Highness waiting."

Yun Yi had made up his mind not to look at him anymore, but this man came out and was still talking to him, so his gaze couldn't stop moving towards him.

Ling Xi was only wearing an inner garment at the moment, and the outer robe was draped over her body, her black hair was loose, and water dripped down her hair.Perhaps it was smoked by the heat, Ling Xi's complexion was much rosier than usual.

"No problem, I'm just here to see how you are doing." Yun Yi stared at the man for a while, then suddenly looked away, not knowing where to look.

"Your Highness, don't worry, I'm fine." With that said, he walked up to him and poured a cup of tea for Yun Yi.

As the people got closer, Yun Yi didn't smell the scent of medicine on Ling Xi's body for the first time, instead it was the fresh scent after bathing.

Suddenly, a knock on the door interrupted the warmth in the room, and then? Listened to someone talking outside the door, "Master Ling, have you rested yet?"

Yun Yi frowned upon hearing the sound, immediately put down the teacup, put on the outer robe for Ling Xi three times and five times, and the movements were done in one go.

After fastening his belt, he took a step back, looked away, and said in a low voice, "Be careful of the wind."
