Chapter 78 Secret
Chapter 78 Secret
The new wind was fierce, and the sky was flying everywhere. The Zixiao Palace was covered with snow almost overnight. The Zixiao Palace was originally located in the mountains. At this moment, it is surrounded by white snow, and the sky and the earth are the same color, as if you are in a frozen space. Crystal clear and empty.
Obviously, there should be no one in such a snowy weather, but there are two people standing in the open courtyard feeding each other. One of the men is about thirty years old, while the other is a boy of only twelve or thirteen years old. The tall man was dressed in gorgeous clothes, and it was obvious that his status in Zixiao Palace was not low. I saw him teaching the little boy with a branch in his hand, with obvious impatience on his face.
"Wrong," a branch hit his hand mercilessly, a bright red bloodstain loomed, but because of the cold weather, the wound instantly froze. Standing on the side with her chest crossed, she sneered, "Palace Master, I have taught you this move three times, but you still don't know how to do it. You are going to be our Palace Master of Zixiao Palace like this."
Yan Yu's immature face was silent, full of stubbornness on his face, he picked up the iron sword that had been knocked off the ground, and heard the man say that he would not be allowed to eat if he didn't practice moves today, Yan Yu didn't resist, just Looking at the back of the man turning away, his eyes dimmed, and then he returned to normal, continuing to practice the moves taught by the man just now.
"Zhang Youshi, you don't usually teach him, but today you deliberately chose to teach him in the snow and ice, obviously to torture him. Is it going too far? After all, he is our Palace Master now." A man looked The ordinary man said to the man who taught Yan Yu just now.
"Really? That's what you think, Master Zuoshi," Zhang Youshi casually glanced at Yan Yu who was standing in the wind and snow. Although he was practicing seriously, every move was extremely childish. , couldn't even stand on his feet, with contempt in his eyes again, "I'm doing this for his own good, don't you see that I'm tempering his will?"
"Hmph," the Zuo Shi sneered, "I remember that the 'Fengyan Slash' move you taught him is a superior move. Even you spent nearly three months practicing this move, but you asked him to do it in a short period of time. Isn't it difficult to practice in just one day?"
Zhang Youshi's face darkened, his eyes gleamed darkly, "To be honest, I'm really dissatisfied with him, but he's just a brat, why should he be our Palace Master, and you and I have been working for Zixiao Palace for so many years?" I tried my best, but I was still just an emissary."
Zuoshi gave Zhang Youshi a meaningful look, "Zhang Youshi, it's good to understand some things, at least he is still our Palace Master now."
In such a cold world, no matter how painful the wound is, it becomes numb. Yan Yu kept practicing sword in the wind and snow, until at noon, he found someone secretly watching him from behind the pillars of the eaves, with big black eyes that kept shining Turning around, the pink and jade carvings are very cute.
Yan Yu stopped and walked under the eaves with a rare smile on his face, and picked up the little Yan Mo. Yan Mo was only four or five years old at this time, and his small body was very soft and comfortable to hug. Yan Yu couldn't help pinching his face, and his tone was so soft that even he felt inconceivable, "Why did Mo'er come here? It's so cold, you have to be obedient indoors, you know?"
"Brother, eat, I just took this from the kitchen." Yan Yu saw a steamed bun that Yan Mo took out out of nowhere, with an innocent smile on his small face, and big eyes looking at himself, as if asking for credit Yan Yu's heart warmed up, and he suddenly felt a little choking in his throat. He hugged Yan Mo tightly in his arms, touched Yan Mo's head and said, "Mo'er is so good, but brother is not hungry yet. Go back to your room and rest."
"But brother, you didn't eat anything at noon, so why aren't you hungry?" Xiaoyan Mo tilted her head with a look of obvious disbelief, her big eyes were wet with mist, and the tip of her nose was red from the cold, "Brother, hurry up!" Eat it, or that big bad uncle will bully brother when he comes back later and sees it."
"It's okay, brother is really not hungry," Yan Yu smiled, his eyes were full of happiness, sparkling like spring water, "Actually, brother has practiced for a long time, Mo'er, do you want to watch brother practice sword?"
Yan Mo quickly nodded his head, like a chicken pecking at rice, "It depends, brother looks the best when he is practicing sword."
Yan Yu stroked Yan Mo's hair, then gently put Yan Mo down and walked into the courtyard, standing in the empty courtyard and letting the snowflakes fall on his body, it was as if the heaven and the earth were one, and the wind was blowing around him, but he still couldn't He moved half a part of his clothes, and suddenly his figure moved, like flowing clouds and flowing water, although there was only one move, it was changeable and uncertain, and the coldness was imprinted in the sword light, disturbing the snowflakes in the sky, but separated the snowflakes, as if it was separated from the snowflakes in his hands. The appearance of two swords becoming one.
There is scorching heat in the faint wind, which is the highest state of Fengyan Zhan, completely different from the unfamiliar look just now. If Zhang Youshi sees Yan Yu's performance at this moment, he will be surprised. A realm that can only be reached in years.
Yan Yu's talent in martial arts is much higher than that of ordinary people, and he grew up in the imperial palace since he was a child, and he understands the truth of the crime of pregnant jade in that kind of palace, especially now in this unfamiliar place. In Zixiao Palace, if he showed extremely high talent, those people would definitely attack him, so he could only cover up his true strength all the time, pretending to be mediocre when practicing, but practicing alone in the dead of night.
Under the moonlit night, a biting cold wind blew up suddenly, and the withered and yellow leaves hovered in the air, as if unwilling to fall. Although it was only early autumn at this time, the sudden chill made Yan Yu suddenly recall the scene of the year, vaguely I still remember Yan Mo's immature laughter echoing in my ears.
Years of forbearance and hard work, coupled with his talent, Yan Yu's martial arts has already reached the highest level, which is enough to discourage countless people. within their own control.It's a pity that in the past few years, because of my own practice, I have been ignoring Yan Mo, so I didn't notice that Yan Mo ran away from home for a while, and I became flustered at that time. Fortunately, I finally found Yan Mo in Yuxiao Villa.
Rubbing between the frowning brows and temporarily receding the exhaustion all over his body, Yan Yu felt a little regretful. When Xiao Zifeng broke into Zixiao Palace that day, Yan Yu guessed that Xiao Zifeng had other purposes after a little thought, so he accompanied him symbolically. Xiao Zifeng went through a few tricks to prevent Xiao Zifeng from seeing the depth of his martial arts. Although Xiao Zifeng's martial arts is good, even in the whole arena, he is considered to be at the top, but he is far behind him. If he does his best, he will definitely be in his own hands. You can't get out of ten tricks.
Originally, everything was under his control, but what Yan Yu never expected was that Yan Mo would take advantage of that time to leave, and was even arrested. I was still in a hurry to leave, until recently I finally found out that Yan Mo was in the capital, so I rushed over overnight, Zixiao Palace is tens of thousands of miles away from the capital, it takes half a month for ordinary people to go fast, but Yan Yu insisted on relying on his peerless lightness all the way It took only five days to arrive in the capital.
Finally arrived at the capital, Yan Yu was exhausted. He planned to find an inn to rest first, but he accidentally looked up and saw a white pigeon passing by. Shooting and knocking down the pigeon, Yan Yu didn't expect that it was Yan Mo's news, and the news was passed to Ji Le, Yan Yu couldn't help being a little puzzled, he didn't know when Yan Mo got involved with Ji Le, there was something vaguely disturbed.
Yan Yu never expected that Yan Mo would participate in the selection of concubines and enter the imperial city. If Yan Mo really enters the imperial palace, it will be extremely dangerous in a place like the imperial palace that eats people without spitting out bones, especially The woman in my memory was sinister and vicious, and now she is the empress dowager, if she knew Yan Mo's identity, she would definitely not let Yan Mo go, so he had to rescue Yan Mo.
"Imperial City," Yan Yu said two words slowly, looking at the key point in the north of the capital. In the eyes of ordinary people, it is impossible to enter that place, but in Yan Yu's view, it was nothing more than that. On that day, he You can reach the realm of no one in Yuxiao Villa. You must know that the defense in Yuxiao Villa doesn’t have to be much worse than in the palace. Even if Yan Yu enters the palace, it’s not a problem, let alone in the mere imperial city. .
Close your eyes and make a serious plan in your heart, Yan Yu decided to rest for the night first, so he found a good inn to stay, at least knowing that Yan Mo is safe now, he has let go of most of his vacant heart, after all these things He has been physically and mentally exhausted for a long time, and his energy has reached its limit. It may be difficult to rescue Yan Mo at this moment, and there are some things he still needs to find out.
*******
It was rare for Yan Mo to get up so early, rubbed his sleepy eyes, pulled himself together and opened the window to look out, suddenly a chill came over him, he tightened his clothes, only to realize that he was only wearing his underwear, no wonder he felt very cold , hurriedly found a thicker clothes to put on, these clothes were sent by Qing Xiao yesterday, I didn’t expect it to be so cold after only one night, Yan Mo smiled and squinted his eyes, bent into crescents, he couldn’t help but I admire Qingxiao for her carefulness and gentleness, and her extraordinarily thoughtful thinking.
The sky was still gray, and it was actually getting late, but after all, it was already autumn, so it was a little late in the day, and the servants in the courtyard had already started cleaning, and the ground was covered with dust overnight. leaves swept up.
Yan Mo rested his chin and stared for a while, and suddenly felt a little dull. Recently, he was indeed a little bored. He couldn't run around in this imperial city. He accidentally saw Lin Lin's room out of the corner of his eyes, and found that Lin Lin had woken up so early. , and walked out excitedly.
Yan Mo was immediately interested. He had long been curious about why Lin Lin had become so strange, and quickly followed Lin Lin secretly, but saw Lin Lin turning left and right all the way to a hidden place, and Yan Mo casually looked for it. Hidden in a good place, just in time to hear Lin Lin's voice.
"I'm here again. I didn't expect you to come so early. Did you miss me?" Lin Lin's tone was ambiguous, even unusually excited.
"Hmph, idiot." Another cold voice sounded, but there seemed to be a trace of immaturity in the cold voice. Due to the problem of the angle, Yan Mo couldn't see who the other party was. With extreme curiosity, Yan Mo cautiously Change the place and squat down again.
"Okay then, I don't want to meet you, so I'll let you come first today." Lin Lin brushed his hair hanging down his forehead habitually, very proudly.
Then, a child of five or six years old appeared in Yan Mo's field of vision, dressed in bright yellow and luxurious clothes, and facing Lin Lin with a stinky face, with a hint of unwillingness on his face.
Yan Mo didn't expect that it was this child who was talking to Lin Lin. No wonder he felt that the voice just now was a little immature, but the next movement of the child made Yan Mo's face darken. The boy unbuttoned his coat and bent down to lie down. On the ground, but Lin Lin was standing right behind the child, the scene was so weird and ambiguous, isn't it, this child is only five or six years old at most, how can Lin Lin be like this——
"Pa," a crisp voice sounded in the air, Yan Mo looked at the branch beside him speechlessly, and accidentally stepped on it when he got excited just now.
"Who?" The boy who was lying on the ground immediately stood up, looking at the place where the sound came out with a vigilant face, and then seeing Yan Mo crawling out of the grass with a face of helplessness, the boy immediately felt relieved.
Yan Mo had an innocent smile on his face, "Hey, this, it's none of my business, I was passing by."
Lin Lin at the side turned around belatedly, and was surprised to find that Yan Mo was standing behind him, his face flushed, "Yan Mo, why are you here?"
"No, it's nothing." Yan Mo's eyes wandered around, and finally he couldn't help asking, "What were you doing just now?"
Lin Lin's face turned redder, and Yan Mo became more curious. Lin Lin scratched his head. After all, he felt that it was naive to play this game at his age. In the end, he said embarrassedly, "We are playing Pinball."
"Pinball?!" Yan Mo's eyes widened, and he glanced to the ground, and he saw colorful pinballs, and they were all made of colored glaze——
Yan Mo felt a little unbelievable, "Then why did he commit suicide just now?"
"Oh, he's always afraid of getting his clothes dirty and troublesome, and it's inconvenient to put on clothes." Lin Lin seemed to see that the child in front of him was not pleasing to the eye, and he would hurt him when he got a chance, "Hmph, it's still so cold in such a cold day." , I curse you to go back and get sick."
The boy looked up at Lin Lin contemptuously, then looked at Yan Mo without saying a word, still with that cruel little face, without saying a word, obviously he was only five or six years old, but his immature face was It just exudes an incongruous mature atmosphere, with a strong sense of nobility, one can tell at a glance that he is not an ordinary person.
Yan Mo looked at the pinball on the ground and smiled. After all, he is still a child, so he understands!
------
Regarding Yan Mo's counterattack, at least for now it is impossible
Baa, Lin Lin is indeed subject, but not Yan Mo's, they are just friends
