Ren flinched suddenly, "Did he do it?"
Xian Yu nodded slightly.
Li Qingning lowered her eyes and said coldly: "You will believe what he said? How do you know that he has ulterior motives."
Xian Yu said cautiously: "In the previous life, His Highness and I loved each other. It was Bai Tu who distracted the passers-by. His Highness suddenly fell in love at night. It was Bai Tu who extinguished the lamp. His Highness locked me in the room and never stepped on the road with me for several days. One step out of the room, it was the voice of Bai Tu pretending to be an eunuch, asking the maid to put the food box outside the door..."
She was about to say something, but was suddenly interrupted.
"Enough." Li Qingning only felt that her whole body was about to smoke, but she wasn't hot yet.
She said in a trembling voice, "It's really...absurd."
Xian Yu pursed her lips and said nothing.
The two of them were relatively silent in the study, Xian Yu didn't dare to say anything, but Li Qingning didn't want to speak anymore.
After noon, Li Qingning ordered Fangxin to investigate the matter of the third prince. When Fangxin came back, she only said: "The third prince is still locked up. The slave girl asked the gatekeeper, but the only thing is that your majesty has not yet said when the third prince will be released." .”
Li Qingning nodded slightly. Seeing that Fang was hesitant to speak, she seemed to have something else to say, so she asked, "What else is there?"
Behind the screen, Xian Yu took a sip of tea, and heard Fang Xin say: "But when the servant came, I heard that the Shangshi Department was haunted."
Li Qingning: ...
What's going on here.
Fang Xin said again: "Didn't your majesty let someone catch two fish today? For some reason, the fish in Shangshi Department disappeared. It seemed that there was less oil and salt, but after the fisherman left, No one ever went into the kitchen."
"Could it be that the raccoon slave who escaped from some palace stole it, did your majesty hear about it?" Li Qingning had a headache.
Fang Xin shook her head: "I don't know, I heard from the maid that she had never seen a cat before, but later someone sent two fish over there, and they were well guarded and not stolen."
"What does this have to do with being haunted?" Li Qingning was already numb to the rumors in the palace.
Fangxin said in a low voice: "I heard that there was a court lady who stole fish and was beaten with a stick, and then she was often humiliated by other court ladies, and finally hanged herself. This time, the fish of Shang Shisi disappeared, and it was said that her soul came back to steal the fish and ate it." .”
Li Qingning felt that it was hard to explain, raised her hand and rubbed her brows and said, "It's in vain for you to believe such nonsense?"
Fang Xin pursed her lips and said after a long time: "This servant just wants to tell His Highness what I heard."
"However, His Majesty just said today that he wants to eat fish, but the fish disappeared. If His Majesty finds out, I'm afraid Shangshi will be blamed." Li Qingning said flatly.
Fang Xin nodded: "The eunuch who delivered the fish was indeed very scared."
Li Qingning shook her head: "This matter has nothing to do with us, so there is no need to worry."
Xian Yu listened carefully behind the screen, the more she listened, the more she felt that she probably knew the person who stole the fish.
But it's not really a human, it's a rabbit at best.
Fang Xin frowned and nodded slightly, but she was still a little worried in her heart, after all, when His Majesty asked to catch fish, her master was sitting next to His Majesty.
Although Li Qingning was sitting on the side, His Majesty watched every move he made, but His Majesty was so suspicious, if he found out, he would doubt whether Li Qingning was trying to play tricks on him.
Fang Xin sighed deeply, really couldn't let go.
"Don't worry about this matter, but the second prince still needs to keep an eye on it." Li Qingning thought for a while and said: "When I was in Chunhuachi, Your Majesty asked me if I had any candidates for disaster relief in my mind. alone."
Behind the screen, Xian Yu moved the teacup against her lips farther away, and slightly pursed her tea-stained lips. She forgot to ask Li Qingning about this matter, and she never thought that the emperor would ask Li Qingning to ask about disaster relief. ?
She turned her head, her heart tightened suddenly, and she listened to Li Qingning's words very seriously.
Li Qingning said: "This palace has recommended the second prince, Li Wuyin."
Xian Yu's heart sank, her eyes closed slowly, and she let out a sigh of relief.
The corner of her lips twitched slightly, unexpectedly Li Qingning mentioned Li Wuyin, this is really a sword away.
"The second prince still needs to keep an eye on him. His Majesty will call him over soon." Li Qingning said.
Fang Xin replied: "Yes."
After Fangxin left, Xian Yu walked out from behind the screen,
Li Qingning lowered her head, took up her hair and wrote the word "disaster relief" on the paper.
Her right hand was already frozen, so she had to use her left hand to hold the pen. Unfortunately, her left hand was not often used for writing. The word "disaster relief" was a little weak, and several gestures were weak.
Xian Yu looked distressed, and forgot about Shang Shisi for a moment, and sat down beside him shrugging his shoulders and said, "Your Highness is in severe pain again."
Li Qingning shook her head slightly.
Xian Yu pursed her lips, and said cautiously: "I do know a symbiosis spell, which can share the five senses from one person to another, so that His Highness doesn't have to suffer so much."
Li Qingning put down her wolf hair, turned her head and frowned at her, "Don't even think about it."
Xian Yu had no choice but to purse her lips and remain silent.
But she was very entangled in her heart, and after a while she whispered: "Then why not do something else, Your Highness, so as to forget this pain for a while."
Li Qingning shook her head.
Xian Yu said in a muffled voice: "It's fine if I come, Your Highness doesn't need to worry about it."
This was said in a subtle way, but Li Qingning could still hear some clues.
Li Qingning gritted her teeth and almost tore the scroll in her hand, "You can't be more reserved, don't keep thinking..."
Xian Yu cast his eyes to the other side, and his voice was deliberately lowered to be as soft as silk, making people feel affectionate.
She said: "Your Highness has been working hard these days, I just want to find something to please His Highness, so that His Highness can have some fun."
Li Qingning shook her hand and made a typo again.
Xian Yu added in a muffled voice: "Besides, it's easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. Your Highness wants me not to think about those things, it's really hard."
With a clatter, the thin paper that Li Qingning was pressing was still torn apart.
Chapter 69

As soon as the words fell, Xian Yu was stared at by Li Qingning, and he stared for a long time.
Xian Yu was defeated first, and slowly moved his eyes away, looking elsewhere.
About a while later, Li Qingning picked up the wolf pen and wanted to copy the book, but when she looked at the inkstone, the ink in the inkstone had already dried up, so she thought about it and put the pen down again.
At this time, her hand was injured, it was really inconvenient to study ink, and Fangxin was outside, if Fangxin were allowed to come in and see her and Xian Yu were silent, they would think wildly again.
Xian Yu watched her take the wolf brush and put it down again, so she swished closer, and took the initiative to rub the ink for Li Qingning.
Li Qingning's eyes turned slightly, she pursed her lips and expressionlessly picked up the wolf hair again and dipped it on the inkstone.
After a while, Xian Yu saw that Li Qingning's expression had eased a lot, and he didn't look like he was secretly angry. Then he remembered the matter of Shangshi Division, and said: "I don't think Shangshi Division's fish disappeared for no reason. of."
"Of course it's impossible to disappear without a reason." Li Qingning said.
"But it's not haunted anymore." Xian Yu said again.
Li Qingning saw that the ink grinder beside him hesitated to speak, he clearly knew something but couldn't say it, "What do you mean?"
Xian Yu said: "Your Highness, you still remember the rabbit I mentioned."
"White paint." Li Qingning definitely remembered.
"Maybe he came into the palace." Xian Yu said slowly.
Li Qingning choked up for a moment, never would have guessed that the rabbit would still eat fish. On second thought, the rabbit was not really a rabbit, but why was there so little oil and salt in the kitchen? Could it be that the rabbit fried the fish by itself?
Seeing her puzzled face, Xian Yu said, "Maybe it's really a waste of food, after all, he also loved fish very much in his previous life."
After a pause, Xianyu said with difficulty: "It's unbelievable that rabbits eat fish."
"It's still the fish from Shangshi Division, which is somewhat out of order." Li Qing glanced at her with a sense of reproach.
Xian Yu took a deep breath, thinking that she didn't teach Bai Tu to do this.
She thought for a while, and then said softly, "Then Your Highness, can I leave Yangning Palace today?"
Li Qingning knew early on that this person was hesitant, and his words were unclear. He clearly wanted to do something that was not what she wanted, so she immediately said: "No."
"It will never be seen by others." Xian Yu's eyes were very bright, and there seemed to be stars hidden in a pair of peach blossom-like pupils.
"No." Li Qingning refused.
"But what about Baitu?" Xian Yu whispered.
Li Qingning felt a headache again, and she was silent for a long time before saying: "You just wait here, I will order someone to bring that rabbit over."
Only then did Xian Yu nod his head, and studied the ink harder.
It was around evening when a court lady delivered the food and the cage with the rabbits.
The maid said to Fangxin outside: "The chef is very happy, so he cooked many dishes. He said that His Highness has not eaten the dishes he is in charge of for a long time."
Fang Xin took the food box, nodded her head and said: "Except for the past few years, I have tasted a few times at the banquet, Your Highness has indeed not tasted the chef's food for a long time, and I don't know why I suddenly read it today."
The little palace lady spoke softly, and she rolled her eyes with a smile, "The chef is also very puzzled, but very happy."
"Thank you very much this time." Fang Xin took out a jade bead from her cuff, and stuffed it into the hand of the maid without a trace.
The little maid's hands were suddenly frozen by the bead, and she quickly whispered: "Sister can't do it."
"Now the chef is only in charge of banquets in the palace. It is against the law to ask the chef to cook without His Majesty's permission," Fang Xin said.
The little maid was still unwilling to take it, she just pushed the jade bead back into Fangxin's hand, pursed her lips and said: "Sister, don't bully me, I can't take such a valuable thing, besides the chef is happy, we naturally I’m also very happy, and that’s enough.”
Fangxin saw that she was determined not to accept it, so she had no choice but to take the jade beads back, thought for a while and asked, "Does the chef have any questions?"
The little maid thought about it and said: "I didn't ask anything, but I did ask us, is there any dish that Her Highness the Eldest Princess doesn't like now, and he said that His Highness's taste may have changed after all these years."
Fang Xin softened her heart slightly, and said: "Don't mention today's matter to others."
"Of course I won't mention it." The little maid said hastily.
Only then did Fang Xin nod her head slightly, watching the little palace maid walk back along the way she came.
When the person walked away, she lowered her eyes to look at the things in her left and right hands, and became even more puzzled.
Li Qingning asked her to ask someone from the Shangshi Department to cook some dishes, and then catch a few restless rabbits. It is understandable to want to eat the dishes cooked by the chef, but what is the point of catching a few rabbits?
The rabbit cage in his hand was heavy, and there were three very similar rabbits inside, all three were snow-white, and looked very cute.
Fang Xin carried her things and walked back with a puzzled face, thinking, maybe she was afraid that the fairy would be bored in Yangning Palace, so she wanted to use rabbits to make her happy?
Forget it, she couldn't help thinking about the master's mind again, but forgot that the master's mind was becoming more and more difficult to understand.
In the room, Xian Yu put down the ink stick, and turned his head slightly when he sensed someone approaching from outside the door. As expected, there was a knock on the door the next moment.
"Your Highness, the people from the Shangshi Department have brought the things." Fang Xin said outside the door.
"Come in." Li Qingning put down the wolf hair, lowered her head for a closer look, and felt that her anger was not going well, why did she copy it wrong again?
Fangxin pushed the door open when she heard the sound, and put the food box on the table far away, while she put the rabbit cage outside the door, she said: "Your Highness, the people from the Shangshi Division brought the rabbit, but the servant heard Feeling that there was some smell, he put the cage outside the door, would His Highness want to take a look?"
Li Qingning turned her head and glanced at Xian Yu, "Do you want to take a look?"
Xian Yu rolled her eyes, "I need to see it."
After hearing this, Fang's heart was determined. This rabbit was used by the eldest princess to please the beauties.
She sighed deeply in her heart, she really felt sorry for those people in the capital who had shown kindness to the eldest princess, never thought that the reason why these people would be rejected was that they were wrong from the beginning.
Wrong gender.
Xian Yu stood up, walked towards the door, looked down and saw a cage outside the threshold, inside the cage were three rabbits of similar size.
Although two of them in the cage are not moving, at least they still have their eyes open, while the other one has its eyes tightly closed and does not move, as if it is asleep.
She didn't care how dirty the cage was, so she bent down to pull out the stick.
Before she could touch the tip, she heard Fang Xin say from behind: "Girl, let the servants come."
Fang Xin squatted down, opened the cage, raised her head and asked, "Which one do you want, Miss?"
Xian Yu said: "The one that fell asleep."
Fang Xin reached out and picked up the rabbit's ears, and lifted the rabbit out.
The moment it was picked up, the rabbit's eyes, which had been closed for a long time, suddenly opened, and the pupils were red, like polished blood jade.
Xian Yu was overjoyed, and quickly took it, raised his hand and put the rabbit in his arms, stepped into the threshold and said: "The remaining two will be returned to the Shangshi Department."
Hearing this, Fang Xin glanced into the room, as if asking Li Qingning for her opinion.
"Then send it back to the Shangshi Department." Li Qingning said.
The door creaked shut, Xian Yu put Bai Tu on the table, and after noticing that the people outside the house had left, he said, "Why are you eating Shangshi's fish?"
The snow-white rabbit ears only moved slightly, but it didn't look like he wanted to pay attention to people.
Hearing this, Li Qingning couldn't help turning her head, feeling vaguely that this rabbit was somewhat familiar, as if she had indeed seen this rabbit in her previous life.
She frowned slightly, only to feel that the sight in front of her was strange, and the next moment she saw a snow-white rabbit lying in front of her.
Although it was a weak creature, the red rabbit eyes seemed to be staring at her, and the coercion emanating from the rabbit should not be underestimated.
There was indeed a monk living in the rabbit's body.
The rabbit's mouth was tightly closed, and the human words that spit out seemed to come from the abdominal cavity.
She looked at the rabbit aggressively questioning her with cold eyes, but she didn't refute a word, and didn't make a move.
The rabbit said: "Do you know how she spends her nights? Every night she calls your name in her dreams. She sleeps very lightly and wakes up when there is any movement. The palace looks at you."
"But she was worried that you would be implicated. If you were implicated, she would hate her. In the end, she didn't sneak into the palace without permission. Only when she sent you a letter and got your permission, did she smile and dress up carefully before she could get out of the palace." Come to see you." Rabbit said.
Li Qingning still didn't move, there was no expression on her face, not even a frown between her brows.
The rabbit said again: "How do you want to torture her? If you don't have her in your heart, you can tell me clearly, I still want to hurt this child."
After a long time, Li Qingning heard herself say: "Why doesn't this palace love her?"
Li Qingning snapped back to her senses, her whole body felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and a chill spread from bottom to top on her back.
She quickly turned her head and looked at Xian Yu who was carefully pinching the rabbit's ears in the distance, and only after seeing the smile on the corner of this man's lips, she let out a long sigh of relief.
The previous life has passed, and this life must be lived well.
The moment Li Qingning turned her head, she suddenly met those scarlet rabbit eyes.
Li Qingning was stunned for a moment, but Bai Tu only glanced at her and then withdrew his gaze.
Xian Yu still looked down at the rabbit in front of him, and asked, "Why do you eat the fish from Shangshisi, and use oil and salt?"
This scene is really weird, a beautiful woman with a beautiful face is questioning a rabbit resting with its eyes closed.
Li Qingning hesitated to speak, but just as she was about to speak, she heard Bai Tu's voice.
"If I don't eat the old man, how would you know that I've sneaked in." Bai Tu said leisurely.
This rabbit looks very cute, but the human words that can be uttered are extremely vicissitudes. Although it is still full of spirit, the voice is clearly that of an old man who is over seventy years old.
Li Qingning fell silent. It was the first time in her life that she had seen a rabbit speaking human language, and it was hard to accept it for a while.
Xian Yu didn't know what was going on in Li Qingning's mind, so she sneered and said, "Do you know what rumors are spreading in Shangshi Department?"
"What." Bai Tu said indifferently.
"Haunted." Xian Yu paused every word.
Bai Tu snorted and laughed: "Old man, I just used some spiritual energy, used a spatula, used oil and salt, and personally burned two fish, how could I be haunted?"
Xian Yu looked at him speechlessly.
Bai Tu raised his eyes, looked at Li Qingning suddenly, and said, "Meet Your Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."
Li Qingning: ...
She nodded slightly, pretending to be calm.
"I heard that His Highness was poisoned, so I sneaked into the meat rabbit and entered the palace. I hope His Highness will forgive me." Bai Tu said.
Li Qingning moved her lips, "It's okay."
"Your Highness, let me take a look at the injury on my palm." Bai Tu said again.
Only then did Li Qingning walk over with a stiff face, and slowly raised her arms.
The wound on her palm was still terrifying, and it looked even scarier than before.
Bai Tu leaned closer and sniffed it, and said, "It's indeed a scorpion vine."
Xian Yu frowned and said, "Is there a way to detoxify?"
Bai Tu shook his rabbit ears, and after a long silence, he said: "Yes, there are, but the things you need are not easy to find."
Xian Yu frowned. When she was poisoned by Heliconia vine in her previous life, she thought it was just an ordinary poison.She didn't mention it to Bai Tu, so she went to Li Qingning to be coquettish and beg for mercy. Now that she thinks about it, she was really heartless when she was poisoned in her previous life.
"If you want something, I'll look for it." She frowned.
Bai Tu shook his head, "Old man, I used to have a Devil May Cry Lamp that could gather the souls of the dead, but now I don't know where it has gone. The reason why this scorpion tail vine is so terrifying is because it was contaminated with the resentment of the dead souls, and now the resentment has entered His Highness's flesh and blood." , You have to use the Devil May Cry Lamp to lure away the poisonous energy, so that the wound can heal."
Hearing this, Xian Yu was stunned for a moment, her thin lips moved slightly, and she silently recited the words "Devil May Cry Lantern".
She raised her eyes suddenly, and hastily raised her thin arms, only to see a cloud of cold light gathered on her palm, and with only one breath, a gray green lamp appeared in her hand.
Xian Yu lifted the lamp, frowned and said, "When I was on Weifeng Island, I... took a lamp."
Li Qingning looked at the seemingly plain and unadorned lamp, and then remembered that when Xian Yu was on Weifeng Island, she had indeed taken a magic weapon, and it was this green lamp.
Bai Tu's eyes widened, his ears suddenly pricked up, and he was speechless for a long time.
"This blue lantern can also gather the souls of the dead, I wonder if it can replace the Devil May Cry Lantern." Xian Yu said holding the lantern.
Bai Tu stared at it for a long time, and took a long while to take a breath, "Isn't this my old, old man's lamp? Your eyesight is really good. This is such a good thing. I never thought it would fall into your hands."
Xian Yu was stunned for a moment, then thought that this lamp was left by the great power of the world, she hesitated to speak, and after a moment of silence, she asked: "This lamp...is yours?"
"Exactly." Bai Tu said.
Xian Yu choked up for a moment, thinking that she had been with this rabbit for so long in her previous life, yet she didn't know much about it, and she didn't know what other treasures she didn't know about this old thing.
Bai Tu said again slowly: "I think this lamp was brought to Weifeng Island by someone with discerning eyes, and you were lucky enough to get it. Even God is helping Her Highness Princess to heal this wound."
Xianyu's forehead twitched, and he couldn't help but said, "So how do we use this lamp to draw out that poisonous energy?"
"It's such a reckless waste of money, you can't use this lamp after taking it." Bai Tu tutted.
Xian Yu fell silent, thinking, don't get angry with this old thing right now.
Li Qingning was slightly certain, although the rabbit didn't look reliable, perhaps because of various past life reasons, she didn't like the rabbit for some reason, but it wasn't considered hostile.But if the injury on the palm can heal, that would be great, let's just trust this rabbit for once.
Bai Tu raised his eyes and glanced at Li Qingning, before he said leisurely: "Using the soul as the core, the lamp can only be used after it is lit, and blood is used as the primer to connect the soul of the lamp with the soul of the person, so that the poisonous energy can be drawn out." .”
Xian Yu was silent for a long time, looked at the scheming rabbit, and at the lamp in his hand, never would have guessed that the lamp would have such a purpose.
It's really hard to believe that in her previous life, Li Qingning exchanged her cultivation for a pill, and now she is told that this broken lamp can detoxify her, which is simply absurd.
Seeing her pursing her lips, Bai Tu couldn't help but said, "When did I ever lie to you, old man?"
"Can this lamp really detoxify the poison of the scorpion vine?" Xian Yu forced out his voice.
Bai Tu nodded the rabbit's head: "Old man, I said yes, so I can."
Xian Yu still couldn't believe it, and still found it hard to explain, "Then why didn't you mention this lamp in your previous life?"
Bai Tu said slowly: "Old man, I don't even remember such an important thing as the Danyin scroll, but I still need to remember this lamp? It's really embarrassing."
When Li Qingning heard the three words "Dan Yin Juan", she looked sideways and frowned, but said nothing.
Xian Yu thought that since all the blue lanterns were in his hands, no matter whether it could work or not, he would be a dead horse as a living horse doctor first.
She kept what Bai Tu said just now in her heart, took a deep breath before forming a formation, and then sat down cross-legged with Li Qingning.
In the distance, Bai Tu hid in a corner and went to sleep after only one glance.
Li Qingning closed her eyes, only to feel a slight chill between her brows, and it was Xian Yu's soft fingertips that touched her.
The fingertips were a little wet, because blood oozed out after being scratched.
She closed her eyes tightly, but she could vaguely feel the dark green light of the green light. The moment the light was turned on, the surrounding was extremely cold, as if all the dead souls wandering in the palace were gathered here.
Afterwards, the numbness that spread to her entire shoulder gradually faded away, like a bug, being led to another place.
Gradually, she seemed to have a feeling in her right shoulder, and the pain in her arm was no longer so severe, and the stinging pain seemed to be concentrated in her palm, which made her right palm on her knee tremble slightly.
Li Qingning pursed her lips, cold sweat broke out from her back, and even the hair hanging from her forehead was wet with cold sweat.
It does hurt a bit.
Faintly, a wisp of black smoke seemed to rise from Li Qingning's palm.
Li Qingning couldn't see the resentment, but felt the pain in her palm suddenly subsided by half.
Suddenly, the lights go out.
All the remaining souls gathered in the lamp were burned at this moment.
Xian Yu took back the lamp, and quickly lowered her head and squeezed Li Qingning's hand.
But she didn't touch the wound on Li Qingning's palm, but carefully covered the jade-white slender fingers, and whispered, "Does it still hurt?"
"It's much better." Li Qingning opened her eyes and let out a long sigh of relief.
"It's much better?" Xian Yu knew that this person was usually silent about things, and he didn't know if he was trying to trick her.
Li Qingning nodded and said: "Gradually I have some awareness, and the pain is not so bad. The spiritual energy circulated for a small week and there is no blockage, but there is still some discomfort in the palm."
Seeing this, Xian Yu breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. If you want to wait for the wound on the palm to heal, you will be able to recover as before, but the wound on the flesh will heal more slowly."
Li Qingning nodded slightly and didn't say much.
"The wound will definitely scab over, and it may be a little itchy at that time, please bear with it, Your Highness." Xian Yu frowned.
It's not that Li Qingning has never suffered physical injuries, so she naturally knew what the process was like, so she nodded: "It's okay."
Xian Yu thought for a while and said, "Your Highness may be inconvenient in bathing and changing clothes, you can call me for help."
Li Qingning faintly felt that these words seemed to have another meaning.
Xian Yu's eyes were burning, and he said again: "Your Highness never likes to show weakness, and even if you want to come, you don't want to call someone to serve you, but I am also very close to Your Highness, so it is not uncommon to call me."
Li Qingning gradually became expressionless.
"It's a pity that I didn't stay on Aoxian Mountain for a few more days, otherwise I would be much older than His Highness when I came down the mountain. Taking care of her so intimately is like a sister taking care of a younger sister." Xian Yu said to herself, the more she said, the more she felt it was a pity.
"Who is the younger sister?" Li Qingning's usually cold eyes dimmed slightly, and she looked like a falcon when she was not fighting for it before.
Xian Yu let go of Li Qingning's hand, her heart trembled.
She met Li Qingning's eyes, felt a little guilty from being stared at, and said in a muffled voice, "I, I'm my sister."
Chapter 70
70
That night, Li Qingning still didn't let Xian Yu get close to her, and naturally she didn't call her in, but slowly took a bath and changed her clothes by herself.
Xian Yu was extremely sleepy, and fell asleep on the table early, with a cup of tea beside her, as if mocking Li Qingning's sanctimonious appearance.
Li Qingning paused, seeing that the bowl of tea was not pleasing to the eye, so she picked it up and took a sip.
After drinking the tea, she looked into the room again, but she didn't know where the rabbit was hiding.
She raised her hand and slowly removed the muslin, only to see some blood stains on the muslin.
The wound on the palm no longer continued to spread, and there were signs of scabs on the edges. It was originally red and white, but now the edges are faintly dark because they are about to scab. It is still shocking.
Li Qingning pursed her lips, walked lightly towards the wooden cabinet on one side, took out a new fine cloth from the cabinet, and rewrapped the wound to avoid bumping when she fell asleep.
Xian Yu opened his eyes, leaned on the table silently, and looked at the person in the distance with the muslin wrapped around his palm for a while.
Looking at the beauty under the lamp, the beauty is bathed in the soft light all over, with a thin neck and willow waist, she is really beautiful.
Perhaps it was because Li Qingning had just come out of the bath, after being soaked in hot water for a long time, even the eyes that reflected the candlelight seemed to be filled with mist, and the eyes were much softer than usual.
She was still a little guilty, she was helpless in her previous life, Li Qingning owed her, but why didn't she owe Li Qingning.
If she could get that blue lantern by accident in her previous life, maybe Li Qingning wouldn't have to waste her cultivation to exchange for the pill.
Those cultivation bases cannot be cultivated overnight, any monk, who does not regard the cultivation of aura and base as his life.
Li Qingning sacrificed her life for her.
The candlelight was flickering, seeing that Li Qingning was about to wrap up the fine cloth, Xian Yu said coldly, "Why didn't Your Highness call me for help?"
Li Qingning looked up at her, raised her hand and slowly showed her teeth, lowered her head, bit a corner of the muslin, and tied the muslin tightly around her hand.
After tying it up, she said, "No need."
Xian Yu said again: "Then do you want tea on the bed tonight?"
After a pause, she turned and said: "It's better to let it go, although it's not auspicious, but if you don't let it go, then if your Highness is bumped at night, you won't be able to tell, where will I go then?" Reason."
The words "unlucky" were bitten very hard, making it clear that Li Qingning should hear more clearly.
Li Qingning took a deep breath, thinking that the bowl of tea and fruit was really prepared for her, this man was so cunning that he even tried to trick her.
But do you want to put this tea?
Li Qingning really had a headache, if she didn't let it go, she would feel uneasy, but if she let it go, it would be unlucky.
But after thinking about it, she didn't think it would be unlucky. It was Xian Yuhu's fabrication. There were so many people who shared a bed in history, and there were many people who put a bowl of water on the bed, but they all melted. Butterfly? No.
Besides, the butterfly transformation was only fabricated by the latter.
"Your Highness, should I sleep or not tonight?" Xian Yu watched her contemplate for a long time, and said cautiously in a soft voice.
"Li." Li Qing said with a cold face.
"Will the tea be served?" Xian Yu asked again.
"..." Li Qingning closed her eyes, and said slowly, "Don't let go."
Xian Yu chuckled, snuggled onto the bed, and tucked herself in the quilt.
Ink hair spilled all over the pillow, strands seemed to be entangled in Li Qingning's heart.
Li Qingning was silent for a long time before lying down. After closing her eyes, she thought for a while and said, "Don't talk when you sleep."
Xian Yu's deliberately lowered voice came from the side, it was soft and soft, like a dream, trying to penetrate Li Qingning's auricle into her heart.
She said, "But I wasn't talking just now."
Li Qingning's closed eyes moved slightly, and she pursed her lips without responding.
The person beside him said to himself: "Your Highness said it first, since His Highness said something, I will say it too."
Li Qingning always felt that she couldn't sleep this time.
Xian Yu said in a soft voice: "I heard that many nobles in the capital expressed their favor to His Highness earlier."
Li Qingning was silent for a long time, her lips moved slightly, and she squeezed out a little voice: "Yes."
"Your Highness, they can't imagine." Xian Yu tutted.
Li Qingning felt a headache again when she heard her words, her forehead twitched, she didn't want to speak, but she couldn't help but said: "Who would have imagined that."
"You?" She paused, and then said without any ups and downs.
After saying this, Li Qingning regretted it again, and somehow felt that the person lying beside her was even more unwilling to let her sleep peacefully.
Sure enough, Xian Yu moved around, just now she was resting on another pillow, but now it is next to Li Qingning.
Xian Yu smiled, and said slowly: "Naturally, I think about it day and night, I think about it day and night, day and night dreams are just like me."
Almost short of breath, Li Qingning opened her eyes suddenly, staring at the veil on the top for a long time, unable to speak.
If this continues, she really doesn't want to be a human anymore.
"If you talk too much, go sleep outside." Li Qing said in a cold voice.
Xian Yu said in a low voice: "Your Highness, no, if this happens, Fangxin will feel that we are not compatible."
Li Qingning pursed her lips and said nothing, she really couldn't answer these words, and it would be endless if she continued.
The next day.
As expected, the second prince was summoned by Li Zaiyu, and Li Zaiyu only summoned him.And the third prince Li Qianjun was still in confinement, other than that, there was no other movement.
Li Qingning was copying books in the study when she got the news.
That's right, she was copying books again. Last night she was almost aroused by the person she shared with her. After waking up, she couldn't recover for a long time. Thinking about it, she still had to punish herself by copying books to get by.
Fang Xin stood aside and studied ink for her, frowned and said: "Your Highness recommended the Second Prince to His Majesty, but the Second Prince probably doesn't want to go."
Li Qingning's writing hand stopped suddenly, she raised her eyes, looked out of the window, narrowed her eyes slightly and said: "Maybe he has never thought about disaster relief, if he goes to rescue disasters, it will definitely disrupt the disaster." It is his plan, but if His Majesty mentions it, he must go."
"But it's not that the second prince can't pretend to be sick." Fang Xin whispered.
"It's true that he has all kinds of tricks to escape this job, but if he can properly handle the earthquake disaster, it can save him a lot of trouble." Li Qingning said unhurriedly.
"Li Zaiyu has not established a crown prince yet, he is probably still hesitating, if the disaster relief can be accomplished, Li Zaiyu will definitely look at him differently." She continued.
"Will the Second Prince go? If he goes, His Highness will be able to investigate a lot about the affairs in the palace and court." Fang Xin said.
Li Qingning knocked on the book case, and it made a loud sound. After a long time, she retracted her eyes, lowered her eyes and copied another line of words, saying: "I will go, Li Wuyin will be crowned soon, if that The disaster relief is good, and he can be crowned just when he returns to the palace, His Majesty should give him an official position."
Fangxin suddenly realized, "The second prince is indeed going to be crowned, and the coronation ceremony will be here within four months."
Li Qingning nodded slightly, "If this can be done, it will be difficult for His Majesty not to appoint him an official position. Even if he is not crowned prince, he can still stay in the capital, and he doesn't have to go to any corner to be an idle king. .”
"Then, Your Highness, what should we do?" Fang Xin asked with a frown.
Li Qingning's lips curled into an invisible smile, "I have already recommended the Second Prince to His Majesty, what happens next is their business, just wait and see."
Fang Xin nodded and backed out.
After the door was closed, Xian Yu, who had been eavesdropping for a long time, came out from behind the screen.
Because she didn't have to go out of Yangning Palace, she didn't have to wear the attire of a court lady anymore. She was wrapped in a red dress. Although it wasn't as bright as the one she wore before, it was still extremely red.
"If the second prince really wants to rescue the disaster, maybe the third prince can escape." Xian Yu raised his eyebrows.
After she finished speaking, she paused, then said again: "It's not certain that the second prince will still come as planned, after all, he still has people in the court."
Li Qingning nodded and said, "That's right, you still shouldn't take it lightly, but if you can transfer him away from the capital, many things will be much easier to handle."
Xian Yu pinched his fingers and counted the time, "The second prince has been in the Yuanzheng Hall for a long time, and the disaster relief is very urgent. If the emperor decides to order him to rescue the disaster, maybe he will send troops today
Xian Yu nodded slightly.
Li Qingning lowered her eyes and said coldly: "You will believe what he said? How do you know that he has ulterior motives."
Xian Yu said cautiously: "In the previous life, His Highness and I loved each other. It was Bai Tu who distracted the passers-by. His Highness suddenly fell in love at night. It was Bai Tu who extinguished the lamp. His Highness locked me in the room and never stepped on the road with me for several days. One step out of the room, it was the voice of Bai Tu pretending to be an eunuch, asking the maid to put the food box outside the door..."
She was about to say something, but was suddenly interrupted.
"Enough." Li Qingning only felt that her whole body was about to smoke, but she wasn't hot yet.
She said in a trembling voice, "It's really...absurd."
Xian Yu pursed her lips and said nothing.
The two of them were relatively silent in the study, Xian Yu didn't dare to say anything, but Li Qingning didn't want to speak anymore.
After noon, Li Qingning ordered Fangxin to investigate the matter of the third prince. When Fangxin came back, she only said: "The third prince is still locked up. The slave girl asked the gatekeeper, but the only thing is that your majesty has not yet said when the third prince will be released." .”
Li Qingning nodded slightly. Seeing that Fang was hesitant to speak, she seemed to have something else to say, so she asked, "What else is there?"
Behind the screen, Xian Yu took a sip of tea, and heard Fang Xin say: "But when the servant came, I heard that the Shangshi Department was haunted."
Li Qingning: ...
What's going on here.
Fang Xin said again: "Didn't your majesty let someone catch two fish today? For some reason, the fish in Shangshi Department disappeared. It seemed that there was less oil and salt, but after the fisherman left, No one ever went into the kitchen."
"Could it be that the raccoon slave who escaped from some palace stole it, did your majesty hear about it?" Li Qingning had a headache.
Fang Xin shook her head: "I don't know, I heard from the maid that she had never seen a cat before, but later someone sent two fish over there, and they were well guarded and not stolen."
"What does this have to do with being haunted?" Li Qingning was already numb to the rumors in the palace.
Fangxin said in a low voice: "I heard that there was a court lady who stole fish and was beaten with a stick, and then she was often humiliated by other court ladies, and finally hanged herself. This time, the fish of Shang Shisi disappeared, and it was said that her soul came back to steal the fish and ate it." .”
Li Qingning felt that it was hard to explain, raised her hand and rubbed her brows and said, "It's in vain for you to believe such nonsense?"
Fang Xin pursed her lips and said after a long time: "This servant just wants to tell His Highness what I heard."
"However, His Majesty just said today that he wants to eat fish, but the fish disappeared. If His Majesty finds out, I'm afraid Shangshi will be blamed." Li Qingning said flatly.
Fang Xin nodded: "The eunuch who delivered the fish was indeed very scared."
Li Qingning shook her head: "This matter has nothing to do with us, so there is no need to worry."
Xian Yu listened carefully behind the screen, the more she listened, the more she felt that she probably knew the person who stole the fish.
But it's not really a human, it's a rabbit at best.
Fang Xin frowned and nodded slightly, but she was still a little worried in her heart, after all, when His Majesty asked to catch fish, her master was sitting next to His Majesty.
Although Li Qingning was sitting on the side, His Majesty watched every move he made, but His Majesty was so suspicious, if he found out, he would doubt whether Li Qingning was trying to play tricks on him.
Fang Xin sighed deeply, really couldn't let go.
"Don't worry about this matter, but the second prince still needs to keep an eye on it." Li Qingning thought for a while and said: "When I was in Chunhuachi, Your Majesty asked me if I had any candidates for disaster relief in my mind. alone."
Behind the screen, Xian Yu moved the teacup against her lips farther away, and slightly pursed her tea-stained lips. She forgot to ask Li Qingning about this matter, and she never thought that the emperor would ask Li Qingning to ask about disaster relief. ?
She turned her head, her heart tightened suddenly, and she listened to Li Qingning's words very seriously.
Li Qingning said: "This palace has recommended the second prince, Li Wuyin."
Xian Yu's heart sank, her eyes closed slowly, and she let out a sigh of relief.
The corner of her lips twitched slightly, unexpectedly Li Qingning mentioned Li Wuyin, this is really a sword away.
"The second prince still needs to keep an eye on him. His Majesty will call him over soon." Li Qingning said.
Fang Xin replied: "Yes."
After Fangxin left, Xian Yu walked out from behind the screen,
Li Qingning lowered her head, took up her hair and wrote the word "disaster relief" on the paper.
Her right hand was already frozen, so she had to use her left hand to hold the pen. Unfortunately, her left hand was not often used for writing. The word "disaster relief" was a little weak, and several gestures were weak.
Xian Yu looked distressed, and forgot about Shang Shisi for a moment, and sat down beside him shrugging his shoulders and said, "Your Highness is in severe pain again."
Li Qingning shook her head slightly.
Xian Yu pursed her lips, and said cautiously: "I do know a symbiosis spell, which can share the five senses from one person to another, so that His Highness doesn't have to suffer so much."
Li Qingning put down her wolf hair, turned her head and frowned at her, "Don't even think about it."
Xian Yu had no choice but to purse her lips and remain silent.
But she was very entangled in her heart, and after a while she whispered: "Then why not do something else, Your Highness, so as to forget this pain for a while."
Li Qingning shook her head.
Xian Yu said in a muffled voice: "It's fine if I come, Your Highness doesn't need to worry about it."
This was said in a subtle way, but Li Qingning could still hear some clues.
Li Qingning gritted her teeth and almost tore the scroll in her hand, "You can't be more reserved, don't keep thinking..."
Xian Yu cast his eyes to the other side, and his voice was deliberately lowered to be as soft as silk, making people feel affectionate.
She said: "Your Highness has been working hard these days, I just want to find something to please His Highness, so that His Highness can have some fun."
Li Qingning shook her hand and made a typo again.
Xian Yu added in a muffled voice: "Besides, it's easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. Your Highness wants me not to think about those things, it's really hard."
With a clatter, the thin paper that Li Qingning was pressing was still torn apart.
Chapter 69
69
As soon as the words fell, Xian Yu was stared at by Li Qingning, and he stared for a long time.
Xian Yu was defeated first, and slowly moved his eyes away, looking elsewhere.
About a while later, Li Qingning picked up the wolf pen and wanted to copy the book, but when she looked at the inkstone, the ink in the inkstone had already dried up, so she thought about it and put the pen down again.
At this time, her hand was injured, it was really inconvenient to study ink, and Fangxin was outside, if Fangxin were allowed to come in and see her and Xian Yu were silent, they would think wildly again.
Xian Yu watched her take the wolf brush and put it down again, so she swished closer, and took the initiative to rub the ink for Li Qingning.
Li Qingning's eyes turned slightly, she pursed her lips and expressionlessly picked up the wolf hair again and dipped it on the inkstone.
After a while, Xian Yu saw that Li Qingning's expression had eased a lot, and he didn't look like he was secretly angry. Then he remembered the matter of Shangshi Division, and said: "I don't think Shangshi Division's fish disappeared for no reason. of."
"Of course it's impossible to disappear without a reason." Li Qingning said.
"But it's not haunted anymore." Xian Yu said again.
Li Qingning saw that the ink grinder beside him hesitated to speak, he clearly knew something but couldn't say it, "What do you mean?"
Xian Yu said: "Your Highness, you still remember the rabbit I mentioned."
"White paint." Li Qingning definitely remembered.
"Maybe he came into the palace." Xian Yu said slowly.
Li Qingning choked up for a moment, never would have guessed that the rabbit would still eat fish. On second thought, the rabbit was not really a rabbit, but why was there so little oil and salt in the kitchen? Could it be that the rabbit fried the fish by itself?
Seeing her puzzled face, Xian Yu said, "Maybe it's really a waste of food, after all, he also loved fish very much in his previous life."
After a pause, Xianyu said with difficulty: "It's unbelievable that rabbits eat fish."
"It's still the fish from Shangshi Division, which is somewhat out of order." Li Qing glanced at her with a sense of reproach.
Xian Yu took a deep breath, thinking that she didn't teach Bai Tu to do this.
She thought for a while, and then said softly, "Then Your Highness, can I leave Yangning Palace today?"
Li Qingning knew early on that this person was hesitant, and his words were unclear. He clearly wanted to do something that was not what she wanted, so she immediately said: "No."
"It will never be seen by others." Xian Yu's eyes were very bright, and there seemed to be stars hidden in a pair of peach blossom-like pupils.
"No." Li Qingning refused.
"But what about Baitu?" Xian Yu whispered.
Li Qingning felt a headache again, and she was silent for a long time before saying: "You just wait here, I will order someone to bring that rabbit over."
Only then did Xian Yu nod his head, and studied the ink harder.
It was around evening when a court lady delivered the food and the cage with the rabbits.
The maid said to Fangxin outside: "The chef is very happy, so he cooked many dishes. He said that His Highness has not eaten the dishes he is in charge of for a long time."
Fang Xin took the food box, nodded her head and said: "Except for the past few years, I have tasted a few times at the banquet, Your Highness has indeed not tasted the chef's food for a long time, and I don't know why I suddenly read it today."
The little palace lady spoke softly, and she rolled her eyes with a smile, "The chef is also very puzzled, but very happy."
"Thank you very much this time." Fang Xin took out a jade bead from her cuff, and stuffed it into the hand of the maid without a trace.
The little maid's hands were suddenly frozen by the bead, and she quickly whispered: "Sister can't do it."
"Now the chef is only in charge of banquets in the palace. It is against the law to ask the chef to cook without His Majesty's permission," Fang Xin said.
The little maid was still unwilling to take it, she just pushed the jade bead back into Fangxin's hand, pursed her lips and said: "Sister, don't bully me, I can't take such a valuable thing, besides the chef is happy, we naturally I’m also very happy, and that’s enough.”
Fangxin saw that she was determined not to accept it, so she had no choice but to take the jade beads back, thought for a while and asked, "Does the chef have any questions?"
The little maid thought about it and said: "I didn't ask anything, but I did ask us, is there any dish that Her Highness the Eldest Princess doesn't like now, and he said that His Highness's taste may have changed after all these years."
Fang Xin softened her heart slightly, and said: "Don't mention today's matter to others."
"Of course I won't mention it." The little maid said hastily.
Only then did Fang Xin nod her head slightly, watching the little palace maid walk back along the way she came.
When the person walked away, she lowered her eyes to look at the things in her left and right hands, and became even more puzzled.
Li Qingning asked her to ask someone from the Shangshi Department to cook some dishes, and then catch a few restless rabbits. It is understandable to want to eat the dishes cooked by the chef, but what is the point of catching a few rabbits?
The rabbit cage in his hand was heavy, and there were three very similar rabbits inside, all three were snow-white, and looked very cute.
Fang Xin carried her things and walked back with a puzzled face, thinking, maybe she was afraid that the fairy would be bored in Yangning Palace, so she wanted to use rabbits to make her happy?
Forget it, she couldn't help thinking about the master's mind again, but forgot that the master's mind was becoming more and more difficult to understand.
In the room, Xian Yu put down the ink stick, and turned his head slightly when he sensed someone approaching from outside the door. As expected, there was a knock on the door the next moment.
"Your Highness, the people from the Shangshi Department have brought the things." Fang Xin said outside the door.
"Come in." Li Qingning put down the wolf hair, lowered her head for a closer look, and felt that her anger was not going well, why did she copy it wrong again?
Fangxin pushed the door open when she heard the sound, and put the food box on the table far away, while she put the rabbit cage outside the door, she said: "Your Highness, the people from the Shangshi Division brought the rabbit, but the servant heard Feeling that there was some smell, he put the cage outside the door, would His Highness want to take a look?"
Li Qingning turned her head and glanced at Xian Yu, "Do you want to take a look?"
Xian Yu rolled her eyes, "I need to see it."
After hearing this, Fang's heart was determined. This rabbit was used by the eldest princess to please the beauties.
She sighed deeply in her heart, she really felt sorry for those people in the capital who had shown kindness to the eldest princess, never thought that the reason why these people would be rejected was that they were wrong from the beginning.
Wrong gender.
Xian Yu stood up, walked towards the door, looked down and saw a cage outside the threshold, inside the cage were three rabbits of similar size.
Although two of them in the cage are not moving, at least they still have their eyes open, while the other one has its eyes tightly closed and does not move, as if it is asleep.
She didn't care how dirty the cage was, so she bent down to pull out the stick.
Before she could touch the tip, she heard Fang Xin say from behind: "Girl, let the servants come."
Fang Xin squatted down, opened the cage, raised her head and asked, "Which one do you want, Miss?"
Xian Yu said: "The one that fell asleep."
Fang Xin reached out and picked up the rabbit's ears, and lifted the rabbit out.
The moment it was picked up, the rabbit's eyes, which had been closed for a long time, suddenly opened, and the pupils were red, like polished blood jade.
Xian Yu was overjoyed, and quickly took it, raised his hand and put the rabbit in his arms, stepped into the threshold and said: "The remaining two will be returned to the Shangshi Department."
Hearing this, Fang Xin glanced into the room, as if asking Li Qingning for her opinion.
"Then send it back to the Shangshi Department." Li Qingning said.
The door creaked shut, Xian Yu put Bai Tu on the table, and after noticing that the people outside the house had left, he said, "Why are you eating Shangshi's fish?"
The snow-white rabbit ears only moved slightly, but it didn't look like he wanted to pay attention to people.
Hearing this, Li Qingning couldn't help turning her head, feeling vaguely that this rabbit was somewhat familiar, as if she had indeed seen this rabbit in her previous life.
She frowned slightly, only to feel that the sight in front of her was strange, and the next moment she saw a snow-white rabbit lying in front of her.
Although it was a weak creature, the red rabbit eyes seemed to be staring at her, and the coercion emanating from the rabbit should not be underestimated.
There was indeed a monk living in the rabbit's body.
The rabbit's mouth was tightly closed, and the human words that spit out seemed to come from the abdominal cavity.
She looked at the rabbit aggressively questioning her with cold eyes, but she didn't refute a word, and didn't make a move.
The rabbit said: "Do you know how she spends her nights? Every night she calls your name in her dreams. She sleeps very lightly and wakes up when there is any movement. The palace looks at you."
"But she was worried that you would be implicated. If you were implicated, she would hate her. In the end, she didn't sneak into the palace without permission. Only when she sent you a letter and got your permission, did she smile and dress up carefully before she could get out of the palace." Come to see you." Rabbit said.
Li Qingning still didn't move, there was no expression on her face, not even a frown between her brows.
The rabbit said again: "How do you want to torture her? If you don't have her in your heart, you can tell me clearly, I still want to hurt this child."
After a long time, Li Qingning heard herself say: "Why doesn't this palace love her?"
Li Qingning snapped back to her senses, her whole body felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and a chill spread from bottom to top on her back.
She quickly turned her head and looked at Xian Yu who was carefully pinching the rabbit's ears in the distance, and only after seeing the smile on the corner of this man's lips, she let out a long sigh of relief.
The previous life has passed, and this life must be lived well.
The moment Li Qingning turned her head, she suddenly met those scarlet rabbit eyes.
Li Qingning was stunned for a moment, but Bai Tu only glanced at her and then withdrew his gaze.
Xian Yu still looked down at the rabbit in front of him, and asked, "Why do you eat the fish from Shangshisi, and use oil and salt?"
This scene is really weird, a beautiful woman with a beautiful face is questioning a rabbit resting with its eyes closed.
Li Qingning hesitated to speak, but just as she was about to speak, she heard Bai Tu's voice.
"If I don't eat the old man, how would you know that I've sneaked in." Bai Tu said leisurely.
This rabbit looks very cute, but the human words that can be uttered are extremely vicissitudes. Although it is still full of spirit, the voice is clearly that of an old man who is over seventy years old.
Li Qingning fell silent. It was the first time in her life that she had seen a rabbit speaking human language, and it was hard to accept it for a while.
Xian Yu didn't know what was going on in Li Qingning's mind, so she sneered and said, "Do you know what rumors are spreading in Shangshi Department?"
"What." Bai Tu said indifferently.
"Haunted." Xian Yu paused every word.
Bai Tu snorted and laughed: "Old man, I just used some spiritual energy, used a spatula, used oil and salt, and personally burned two fish, how could I be haunted?"
Xian Yu looked at him speechlessly.
Bai Tu raised his eyes, looked at Li Qingning suddenly, and said, "Meet Your Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."
Li Qingning: ...
She nodded slightly, pretending to be calm.
"I heard that His Highness was poisoned, so I sneaked into the meat rabbit and entered the palace. I hope His Highness will forgive me." Bai Tu said.
Li Qingning moved her lips, "It's okay."
"Your Highness, let me take a look at the injury on my palm." Bai Tu said again.
Only then did Li Qingning walk over with a stiff face, and slowly raised her arms.
The wound on her palm was still terrifying, and it looked even scarier than before.
Bai Tu leaned closer and sniffed it, and said, "It's indeed a scorpion vine."
Xian Yu frowned and said, "Is there a way to detoxify?"
Bai Tu shook his rabbit ears, and after a long silence, he said: "Yes, there are, but the things you need are not easy to find."
Xian Yu frowned. When she was poisoned by Heliconia vine in her previous life, she thought it was just an ordinary poison.She didn't mention it to Bai Tu, so she went to Li Qingning to be coquettish and beg for mercy. Now that she thinks about it, she was really heartless when she was poisoned in her previous life.
"If you want something, I'll look for it." She frowned.
Bai Tu shook his head, "Old man, I used to have a Devil May Cry Lamp that could gather the souls of the dead, but now I don't know where it has gone. The reason why this scorpion tail vine is so terrifying is because it was contaminated with the resentment of the dead souls, and now the resentment has entered His Highness's flesh and blood." , You have to use the Devil May Cry Lamp to lure away the poisonous energy, so that the wound can heal."
Hearing this, Xian Yu was stunned for a moment, her thin lips moved slightly, and she silently recited the words "Devil May Cry Lantern".
She raised her eyes suddenly, and hastily raised her thin arms, only to see a cloud of cold light gathered on her palm, and with only one breath, a gray green lamp appeared in her hand.
Xian Yu lifted the lamp, frowned and said, "When I was on Weifeng Island, I... took a lamp."
Li Qingning looked at the seemingly plain and unadorned lamp, and then remembered that when Xian Yu was on Weifeng Island, she had indeed taken a magic weapon, and it was this green lamp.
Bai Tu's eyes widened, his ears suddenly pricked up, and he was speechless for a long time.
"This blue lantern can also gather the souls of the dead, I wonder if it can replace the Devil May Cry Lantern." Xian Yu said holding the lantern.
Bai Tu stared at it for a long time, and took a long while to take a breath, "Isn't this my old, old man's lamp? Your eyesight is really good. This is such a good thing. I never thought it would fall into your hands."
Xian Yu was stunned for a moment, then thought that this lamp was left by the great power of the world, she hesitated to speak, and after a moment of silence, she asked: "This lamp...is yours?"
"Exactly." Bai Tu said.
Xian Yu choked up for a moment, thinking that she had been with this rabbit for so long in her previous life, yet she didn't know much about it, and she didn't know what other treasures she didn't know about this old thing.
Bai Tu said again slowly: "I think this lamp was brought to Weifeng Island by someone with discerning eyes, and you were lucky enough to get it. Even God is helping Her Highness Princess to heal this wound."
Xianyu's forehead twitched, and he couldn't help but said, "So how do we use this lamp to draw out that poisonous energy?"
"It's such a reckless waste of money, you can't use this lamp after taking it." Bai Tu tutted.
Xian Yu fell silent, thinking, don't get angry with this old thing right now.
Li Qingning was slightly certain, although the rabbit didn't look reliable, perhaps because of various past life reasons, she didn't like the rabbit for some reason, but it wasn't considered hostile.But if the injury on the palm can heal, that would be great, let's just trust this rabbit for once.
Bai Tu raised his eyes and glanced at Li Qingning, before he said leisurely: "Using the soul as the core, the lamp can only be used after it is lit, and blood is used as the primer to connect the soul of the lamp with the soul of the person, so that the poisonous energy can be drawn out." .”
Xian Yu was silent for a long time, looked at the scheming rabbit, and at the lamp in his hand, never would have guessed that the lamp would have such a purpose.
It's really hard to believe that in her previous life, Li Qingning exchanged her cultivation for a pill, and now she is told that this broken lamp can detoxify her, which is simply absurd.
Seeing her pursing her lips, Bai Tu couldn't help but said, "When did I ever lie to you, old man?"
"Can this lamp really detoxify the poison of the scorpion vine?" Xian Yu forced out his voice.
Bai Tu nodded the rabbit's head: "Old man, I said yes, so I can."
Xian Yu still couldn't believe it, and still found it hard to explain, "Then why didn't you mention this lamp in your previous life?"
Bai Tu said slowly: "Old man, I don't even remember such an important thing as the Danyin scroll, but I still need to remember this lamp? It's really embarrassing."
When Li Qingning heard the three words "Dan Yin Juan", she looked sideways and frowned, but said nothing.
Xian Yu thought that since all the blue lanterns were in his hands, no matter whether it could work or not, he would be a dead horse as a living horse doctor first.
She kept what Bai Tu said just now in her heart, took a deep breath before forming a formation, and then sat down cross-legged with Li Qingning.
In the distance, Bai Tu hid in a corner and went to sleep after only one glance.
Li Qingning closed her eyes, only to feel a slight chill between her brows, and it was Xian Yu's soft fingertips that touched her.
The fingertips were a little wet, because blood oozed out after being scratched.
She closed her eyes tightly, but she could vaguely feel the dark green light of the green light. The moment the light was turned on, the surrounding was extremely cold, as if all the dead souls wandering in the palace were gathered here.
Afterwards, the numbness that spread to her entire shoulder gradually faded away, like a bug, being led to another place.
Gradually, she seemed to have a feeling in her right shoulder, and the pain in her arm was no longer so severe, and the stinging pain seemed to be concentrated in her palm, which made her right palm on her knee tremble slightly.
Li Qingning pursed her lips, cold sweat broke out from her back, and even the hair hanging from her forehead was wet with cold sweat.
It does hurt a bit.
Faintly, a wisp of black smoke seemed to rise from Li Qingning's palm.
Li Qingning couldn't see the resentment, but felt the pain in her palm suddenly subsided by half.
Suddenly, the lights go out.
All the remaining souls gathered in the lamp were burned at this moment.
Xian Yu took back the lamp, and quickly lowered her head and squeezed Li Qingning's hand.
But she didn't touch the wound on Li Qingning's palm, but carefully covered the jade-white slender fingers, and whispered, "Does it still hurt?"
"It's much better." Li Qingning opened her eyes and let out a long sigh of relief.
"It's much better?" Xian Yu knew that this person was usually silent about things, and he didn't know if he was trying to trick her.
Li Qingning nodded and said: "Gradually I have some awareness, and the pain is not so bad. The spiritual energy circulated for a small week and there is no blockage, but there is still some discomfort in the palm."
Seeing this, Xian Yu breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. If you want to wait for the wound on the palm to heal, you will be able to recover as before, but the wound on the flesh will heal more slowly."
Li Qingning nodded slightly and didn't say much.
"The wound will definitely scab over, and it may be a little itchy at that time, please bear with it, Your Highness." Xian Yu frowned.
It's not that Li Qingning has never suffered physical injuries, so she naturally knew what the process was like, so she nodded: "It's okay."
Xian Yu thought for a while and said, "Your Highness may be inconvenient in bathing and changing clothes, you can call me for help."
Li Qingning faintly felt that these words seemed to have another meaning.
Xian Yu's eyes were burning, and he said again: "Your Highness never likes to show weakness, and even if you want to come, you don't want to call someone to serve you, but I am also very close to Your Highness, so it is not uncommon to call me."
Li Qingning gradually became expressionless.
"It's a pity that I didn't stay on Aoxian Mountain for a few more days, otherwise I would be much older than His Highness when I came down the mountain. Taking care of her so intimately is like a sister taking care of a younger sister." Xian Yu said to herself, the more she said, the more she felt it was a pity.
"Who is the younger sister?" Li Qingning's usually cold eyes dimmed slightly, and she looked like a falcon when she was not fighting for it before.
Xian Yu let go of Li Qingning's hand, her heart trembled.
She met Li Qingning's eyes, felt a little guilty from being stared at, and said in a muffled voice, "I, I'm my sister."
Chapter 70
70
That night, Li Qingning still didn't let Xian Yu get close to her, and naturally she didn't call her in, but slowly took a bath and changed her clothes by herself.
Xian Yu was extremely sleepy, and fell asleep on the table early, with a cup of tea beside her, as if mocking Li Qingning's sanctimonious appearance.
Li Qingning paused, seeing that the bowl of tea was not pleasing to the eye, so she picked it up and took a sip.
After drinking the tea, she looked into the room again, but she didn't know where the rabbit was hiding.
She raised her hand and slowly removed the muslin, only to see some blood stains on the muslin.
The wound on the palm no longer continued to spread, and there were signs of scabs on the edges. It was originally red and white, but now the edges are faintly dark because they are about to scab. It is still shocking.
Li Qingning pursed her lips, walked lightly towards the wooden cabinet on one side, took out a new fine cloth from the cabinet, and rewrapped the wound to avoid bumping when she fell asleep.
Xian Yu opened his eyes, leaned on the table silently, and looked at the person in the distance with the muslin wrapped around his palm for a while.
Looking at the beauty under the lamp, the beauty is bathed in the soft light all over, with a thin neck and willow waist, she is really beautiful.
Perhaps it was because Li Qingning had just come out of the bath, after being soaked in hot water for a long time, even the eyes that reflected the candlelight seemed to be filled with mist, and the eyes were much softer than usual.
She was still a little guilty, she was helpless in her previous life, Li Qingning owed her, but why didn't she owe Li Qingning.
If she could get that blue lantern by accident in her previous life, maybe Li Qingning wouldn't have to waste her cultivation to exchange for the pill.
Those cultivation bases cannot be cultivated overnight, any monk, who does not regard the cultivation of aura and base as his life.
Li Qingning sacrificed her life for her.
The candlelight was flickering, seeing that Li Qingning was about to wrap up the fine cloth, Xian Yu said coldly, "Why didn't Your Highness call me for help?"
Li Qingning looked up at her, raised her hand and slowly showed her teeth, lowered her head, bit a corner of the muslin, and tied the muslin tightly around her hand.
After tying it up, she said, "No need."
Xian Yu said again: "Then do you want tea on the bed tonight?"
After a pause, she turned and said: "It's better to let it go, although it's not auspicious, but if you don't let it go, then if your Highness is bumped at night, you won't be able to tell, where will I go then?" Reason."
The words "unlucky" were bitten very hard, making it clear that Li Qingning should hear more clearly.
Li Qingning took a deep breath, thinking that the bowl of tea and fruit was really prepared for her, this man was so cunning that he even tried to trick her.
But do you want to put this tea?
Li Qingning really had a headache, if she didn't let it go, she would feel uneasy, but if she let it go, it would be unlucky.
But after thinking about it, she didn't think it would be unlucky. It was Xian Yuhu's fabrication. There were so many people who shared a bed in history, and there were many people who put a bowl of water on the bed, but they all melted. Butterfly? No.
Besides, the butterfly transformation was only fabricated by the latter.
"Your Highness, should I sleep or not tonight?" Xian Yu watched her contemplate for a long time, and said cautiously in a soft voice.
"Li." Li Qing said with a cold face.
"Will the tea be served?" Xian Yu asked again.
"..." Li Qingning closed her eyes, and said slowly, "Don't let go."
Xian Yu chuckled, snuggled onto the bed, and tucked herself in the quilt.
Ink hair spilled all over the pillow, strands seemed to be entangled in Li Qingning's heart.
Li Qingning was silent for a long time before lying down. After closing her eyes, she thought for a while and said, "Don't talk when you sleep."
Xian Yu's deliberately lowered voice came from the side, it was soft and soft, like a dream, trying to penetrate Li Qingning's auricle into her heart.
She said, "But I wasn't talking just now."
Li Qingning's closed eyes moved slightly, and she pursed her lips without responding.
The person beside him said to himself: "Your Highness said it first, since His Highness said something, I will say it too."
Li Qingning always felt that she couldn't sleep this time.
Xian Yu said in a soft voice: "I heard that many nobles in the capital expressed their favor to His Highness earlier."
Li Qingning was silent for a long time, her lips moved slightly, and she squeezed out a little voice: "Yes."
"Your Highness, they can't imagine." Xian Yu tutted.
Li Qingning felt a headache again when she heard her words, her forehead twitched, she didn't want to speak, but she couldn't help but said: "Who would have imagined that."
"You?" She paused, and then said without any ups and downs.
After saying this, Li Qingning regretted it again, and somehow felt that the person lying beside her was even more unwilling to let her sleep peacefully.
Sure enough, Xian Yu moved around, just now she was resting on another pillow, but now it is next to Li Qingning.
Xian Yu smiled, and said slowly: "Naturally, I think about it day and night, I think about it day and night, day and night dreams are just like me."
Almost short of breath, Li Qingning opened her eyes suddenly, staring at the veil on the top for a long time, unable to speak.
If this continues, she really doesn't want to be a human anymore.
"If you talk too much, go sleep outside." Li Qing said in a cold voice.
Xian Yu said in a low voice: "Your Highness, no, if this happens, Fangxin will feel that we are not compatible."
Li Qingning pursed her lips and said nothing, she really couldn't answer these words, and it would be endless if she continued.
The next day.
As expected, the second prince was summoned by Li Zaiyu, and Li Zaiyu only summoned him.And the third prince Li Qianjun was still in confinement, other than that, there was no other movement.
Li Qingning was copying books in the study when she got the news.
That's right, she was copying books again. Last night she was almost aroused by the person she shared with her. After waking up, she couldn't recover for a long time. Thinking about it, she still had to punish herself by copying books to get by.
Fang Xin stood aside and studied ink for her, frowned and said: "Your Highness recommended the Second Prince to His Majesty, but the Second Prince probably doesn't want to go."
Li Qingning's writing hand stopped suddenly, she raised her eyes, looked out of the window, narrowed her eyes slightly and said: "Maybe he has never thought about disaster relief, if he goes to rescue disasters, it will definitely disrupt the disaster." It is his plan, but if His Majesty mentions it, he must go."
"But it's not that the second prince can't pretend to be sick." Fang Xin whispered.
"It's true that he has all kinds of tricks to escape this job, but if he can properly handle the earthquake disaster, it can save him a lot of trouble." Li Qingning said unhurriedly.
"Li Zaiyu has not established a crown prince yet, he is probably still hesitating, if the disaster relief can be accomplished, Li Zaiyu will definitely look at him differently." She continued.
"Will the Second Prince go? If he goes, His Highness will be able to investigate a lot about the affairs in the palace and court." Fang Xin said.
Li Qingning knocked on the book case, and it made a loud sound. After a long time, she retracted her eyes, lowered her eyes and copied another line of words, saying: "I will go, Li Wuyin will be crowned soon, if that The disaster relief is good, and he can be crowned just when he returns to the palace, His Majesty should give him an official position."
Fangxin suddenly realized, "The second prince is indeed going to be crowned, and the coronation ceremony will be here within four months."
Li Qingning nodded slightly, "If this can be done, it will be difficult for His Majesty not to appoint him an official position. Even if he is not crowned prince, he can still stay in the capital, and he doesn't have to go to any corner to be an idle king. .”
"Then, Your Highness, what should we do?" Fang Xin asked with a frown.
Li Qingning's lips curled into an invisible smile, "I have already recommended the Second Prince to His Majesty, what happens next is their business, just wait and see."
Fang Xin nodded and backed out.
After the door was closed, Xian Yu, who had been eavesdropping for a long time, came out from behind the screen.
Because she didn't have to go out of Yangning Palace, she didn't have to wear the attire of a court lady anymore. She was wrapped in a red dress. Although it wasn't as bright as the one she wore before, it was still extremely red.
"If the second prince really wants to rescue the disaster, maybe the third prince can escape." Xian Yu raised his eyebrows.
After she finished speaking, she paused, then said again: "It's not certain that the second prince will still come as planned, after all, he still has people in the court."
Li Qingning nodded and said, "That's right, you still shouldn't take it lightly, but if you can transfer him away from the capital, many things will be much easier to handle."
Xian Yu pinched his fingers and counted the time, "The second prince has been in the Yuanzheng Hall for a long time, and the disaster relief is very urgent. If the emperor decides to order him to rescue the disaster, maybe he will send troops today
