Chapter 275 Old Dreams
Chapter 275 Old Dreams
The nights in Yecheng were as cold as water, and the chill in early spring was still lingering.
An Rui added some oil to the lamp beside the emperor, and added a thick fur cape to Gao Zhan who was sitting upright and thinking for a long time.
"Your Majesty, it's late at night, you should rest early." An Rui persuaded.
Gao Zhan remained silent, An Rui looked down and saw His Majesty's unsmiling and deep smile, he sighed, and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, if there is news from His Highness, that is good news! General Li said that he would find His Highness Lan Ling if he died. , you don't need to be so worried."
"Why do I always put Chang Gong in such a dangerous situation like this... If I knew this, Chang Gong would go to Jinyang and then Jinyang. If he wants to go to Luoyang, I can send heavy troops to guard Luoyang, and I won't Up to now, he is alone in the northern desert and has no news!" Gao Zhan slapped the table heavily, and Gao Zhan pushed all the notebooks in front of him to the ground, and there was a loud noise in the silent palace, and the maidservant outside the door They all knelt in a row.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the little prince is still resting in the apse, don't get angry!" An Rui hurriedly reminded, "The little prince finally asked His Majesty for your permission to come here for the night, and he was still arguing to come to you just now. What should I do if I wake up the little prince?"
An Rui understood the weakness of His Majesty the Emperor. If he got angry, no one could persuade him, but His Majesty was also afraid of the Crown Prince.After all, he is the only son, if the little prince is crying and making noise, then His Majesty is really helpless.
Pity the hearts of parents in the world, His Majesty the Emperor still has a lot of pity and love for the prince whose mother died young. Although the eunuchs and eunuchs always let the little prince get close to him, but blood is thicker than water. No, upon hearing this, He waved his hands to let the kneeling maidservants go out, and sat down sullenly and didn't speak.
An Rui saw that His Majesty restrained his temper, so he squatted down to clean up the mess all over the ground, and kept looking back at Gao Zhan's face. Feeling a little relieved, he accompanied him carefully and tentatively said: "Your Majesty, the Empress, she and The servant said..."
"No, I'm busy with business, let her rest earlier." Gao Zhan's expression was cold, even perfunctory disdain.
"Your Majesty, although your marriage is for the peace of the people and the country, but after all, the queen is still the queen, you can't be regarded by everyone..."
"Anrui! When will my affairs reach the point where everyone will discuss it?!" Gao Zhan walked off the platform without anger and power. Gossip about King Lanling.His Majesty is feeling irritable now, if he listened to those gossips, it would probably be even worse.
"Your Majesty's redemption, this servant is really talkative! This servant has retired, please rest earlier." An Rui added some ambergris to the incense burner, and after Gao Zhan undressed for bed, he bowed respectfully and withdrew from the emperor's bed Bedroom, close the door.
Burning incense curled up from the bronze furnace.
Gao Zhan opened his eyes and looked at the curtain above his head, and let out a heavy breath.Fortunately, this ambergris is very strong and pure, otherwise it would be another sleepless night.
. . . . . .
The starry sky in the sky is very dazzling, and the Milky Way seems to be a gem inlaid in the sky, intricately embellished on the sky.
"It's so beautiful, Master, I think this place is much more beautiful than the sky!" Chu Yan could see that he was very happy.It has been three days since I returned to Wanfu Village, and I put incense on the graves of my parents and Grandfather Sun, and kowtowed to say that I am safe.
In a blink of an eye, more than 70 years have passed in this world. Times have changed, and peace has been restored in the village.The villagers all thought that Chu Yan was a foreigner, a young knight-errant who traveled all over the world.Chu Yan didn't know much about the old and young in this village. After all, after the great plague that year, there were no survivors left among the villagers.
Ji Chen and Chu Yan didn't want to attract too much attention, so they slept in the suburbs next to Wanfu Village.With the sky as the quilt and the ground as the mat, the mountains and fields in midsummer, with the cool breeze and the stars in the sky, are too beautiful to behold.
"Tsk, it's just that there are more mosquitoes." Chu Yan slapped his arm and muttered.
After staying in the Heavenly Palace for a long time, I probably really want to forget this itchy heart-scratching feeling.He was full of true energy, and wanted to build a fairy barrier to resist these hateful insects, but he was stopped by Ji Chen who was beside him and said, "No, since you are here to practice in the mortal world, you can't use mana. Besides, we need to disperse this little bug."
Master Ji Chen said with a smile, and took out a small jar of plaster from his arms: "Just apply some plaster, why use a sledgehammer to kill a chicken?"
When the jar was opened, it was filled with a fragrant and tangy smell.Seeing Chu Yan scratching his arms and the back of his neck, Ji Chen couldn't help laughing, and said with a smile: "Look at what you look like, scratching your ears and cheeks, you are out of shape!"
He blamed him like this on his mouth, but the movement of his hand was to gently help the little apprentice apply the medicine.From the arm, fainted a little bit, and then to the neck, then the collarbone and. . . . . .
Chu Yan seemed to be stung by something, and jumped up from the bullet.Ji Chen looked at him inexplicably, sniffed the jar of medicine in wonder, and asked, "Is it painful? Shouldn't it be cooling and swelling?" Unbelieving, he even tried it on the back of his hand, and said He muttered that the jar of plaster was not wrong.
"Master, I'll do it myself, or you old man will serve me with your own hands, hehe, my apprentice is thick-skinned." Chu Yan smiled naively, this eccentric young man would only be like this in front of Ji Chen Undefended naive expression.If there were other people around, Chu Yan would always have a cold face, sitting upright and very alienated.It's no wonder that his seniors don't wait to see this closed disciple that the master made an exception from the mortal world. Ji Chen always sets precedents for him, and his cold and proud face naturally makes others have the preconceived notion of being favored and proud Seeing this, the friendship of the same family is not so harmonious.
Ji Chen looked at Chu Yan who looked a little shy, nodded, and handed the jar of ointment to the little apprentice, asking him to wipe the bite on his chest.
Thinking about myself, I always treat him like a child, but in the blink of an eye, he has taken Chu Yan to practice in Ziwei Palace for a long time. Poor orphans fighting for food.Today's Chu Yan is full of energy and ambitions, thinking about the upcoming Immortal Trial and Ascension Conference, Ji Chen has high hopes for the young apprentice who is about to enter the immortal class and be able to become a teacher.
"Yan'er, have you ever thought about where you want to become a fairy official after passing the trial meeting?" Ji Chen saw that the child was still avoiding suspicion and turned around to apply the medicine. He didn't think it was funny, and he turned his back he asked.
"Master, in fact, I still want to stay in Ziwei Palace, or I can just be a little boy with you."
"Nonsense! If you don't have great ambitions, Master will teach you a lesson for nothing." Ji Chen said, "Master didn't ask you to honor your family, as long as you can uphold justice and do justice for the heavens, and be a good god who does things for the public. It's the same everywhere. If you follow the master every day, wouldn't it be for nothing that you have practiced for so many years? In fact, the immortals in the Xingxiu Temple are very good at eliminating demons, defending the way, and supporting justice, and you have your senior brother there... "
"Master, after all, you are worried that my apprentice, an ordinary person, will not be able to find a place in the heaven?" Chu Yan turned his head helplessly and looked at Ji Chen with grievances in his eyes.
"No, no, as a teacher, I just want to..." Ji Chen wanted to hide a few words, but looking at Chu Yan's eyes, he knew that he couldn't hide it.
"Yan'er, as a teacher, I think you are extremely talented, and you should do good things for the common people in this world. If your sword is covered with dust because of your birth..."
"Master, you are wrong. Brother Manmen, you have never worried about their future, and you never showed favoritism during the trial of the immortal officials. Why did you come to me as a disciple, but the master entrusted me to help me?" Do you have an idea of finding a way out? My apprentice thinks he is no worse than his seniors, and if Yan'er is really as talented as the master said, how can those examiners not regard me as a talent?" Chu Yan comforted Ji Chen, young and arrogant , smiled slightly.
Ji Chen was stunned by the words, only to realize that he was really making an exception for this little apprentice again.Helplessly shaking his head and smiling wryly, these words were convincingly spoken, it really is him who is a master!
"Okay, since Yan'er said that, then the master is really worrying too much. Not only as a teacher, but also other gods will appreciate your ability. Yan'er will definitely break through the world by relying on his own ability. People look at you with admiration!" Ji Chen patted Chu Yan on the shoulder, and grinned consolingly.
The master was beautiful and cold, even though Chu Yan faced his master day and night in the Ziwei Palace, he still rarely saw his mentor smile like this.In fact, Master was right not to smile too much. At this moment, Chu Yan felt that his chest was bumping like a deer, his heart was about to jump out, and his blood was rushing to his face.
With a plop, Chu Yan fell asleep on the grass.Holding his head in his arms as a pillow, he turned away from looking at Ji Chen.what happened to him?Why are you so flustered!
The boy's reaction to him was very strange and panicked, his face was still heating up, and his blood was also gathering towards strange places uncontrollably.
Blushing and guilty, Chu Yan didn't understand what his reaction was, but he knew that it was wrong for him to do so, and it was a kind of humiliation and disrespect to the master who raised him.
Thinking of this, Chu Yan was even more contradictory and blamed himself, so he curled up, gritted his teeth and shivered.
"Yan'er, what's wrong with you?" Ji Chen felt weird, and wanted to turn over Chu Yan's body to see his face.
"It's okay, Master, I'm sleepy." Chu Yan refused to turn his face away from Ji Chen.
Ji Chen looked at the weird child and smiled, covered him with a robe, and fell asleep by himself.
"Master, don't laugh at outsiders from now on." After a long time, the young man murmured.Under the empty starry sky, the summer wind blew blue hair across his face, making Ji Chen feel good.
"Huh? Why?" Ji Chen couldn't help but find it funny, "Laugh if you want to, why are you holding back?"
. . . . . . "But Master, at the Peach Blossom Conference, those frivolous and wild people still made a joke of Master's casualness, and what's more, they made some nonsense poems to amuse you!" He got up, but his master didn't take it seriously, he just took it lightly.
"Huh? Which frivolous and wild person?" Ji Chen asked back, "It's common sense for the immortals at the Pantao Conference to recite poems, and it's also a matter of elegance. How did you get distracted as a teacher?"
"It's not that unrestrained Phoenix Star King! Why did he pass away with a smile, I don't know what to say, there are such madmen in the sky, it's really ridiculous!" Chu Yan became angry and complained angrily.
"Oh, you said Fenghuang Xingjun, haha, he is used to being romantic, and naturally there are some rules missing in his poems. However, Yan'er misunderstood, his poems were mentioned to the fairies at the peach feast, Fenghuang Xingjun is very much liked by all the heavenly girls, and being merciful everywhere has nothing to do with being a teacher!" Ji Chen shook his head, thinking that this little apprentice really made a fuss over a molehill.
"Why is it irrelevant?! I think he is Kuang Lang, and he is not very respectful to Master!" Chu Yan said angrily, losing his temper.
"Yan'er, Fenghuang Xingjun is the true god who is in charge of war and killing. You must not be so open-mouthed when you meet him in the future. Master just wants you to change your temper. You can't do everything according to your own preferences. Evil, it’s not good to show your sharpness too much, sometimes it’s hard to be a god, if you are more stable, you will get good popularity.” Ji Chen is not worried about Chu Yan’s ability, but his temperament is black and white, stubborn and stubborn is too easy to offend People, if you leave his side in the future, I'm afraid there will be trouble.
"Phoenix Xingjun has just returned from Fengdu's defeat of the demon army. It is inevitable that he got carried away with his high spirits at the Peach Banquet, and he is so good at both sides that he has won the favor of the queen mother's beloved daughters. I can't help but feel a little frivolous. Poetry is out of style, but what does this have to do with being a teacher? Disciple, you are worrying too much. The queen mother intended to marry the nine fairies to Phoenix Xingjun. You, you are so young, you can really think wildly." Ji Chen He was calm, mighty and upright, and didn't quite understand what was entangled in this little apprentice's heart.
Fenghuang Xingjun has affectionate eyebrows, and everyone looks like a peach blossom, so no wonder he is, who knows that under this beautiful appearance, he can burn Fengdu demon camp with real fire for seven days and seven nights. Wanton.The title of Phoenix Star Monarch made the monsters feel terrified and shuddered.And my little apprentice doesn't seem to admire this illustrious general in the heavens. If Chen Xing really takes Chu Yan to be the priest of this constellation, he will inevitably become a colleague of this Phoenix Xingjun, and it will be another needle point. The state of the edge.
Ji Chen sighed slightly, it seemed that Chu Yan was really not suitable to be the fairy official in charge of the stars.Ji Chen lay down on his back, stopped talking, looked at the starry sky and waved his hands to let Chu Yan rest.
Seeing that the master looked tired, Chu Yan also nodded and fell asleep.The two masters and apprentices each have their own concerns, and the stars in the galaxy, like the troubles in each other's hearts, are too numerous to count.
