Chapter 165: King Cheng

Before leaving, the sky was a little dark, but when the crowd came to the orchid valley, they unexpectedly began to float snowflakes over the empty valley.

Huangfu Haotian looked at the path paved with bluestone and gradually turned white, and his brows frowned involuntarily.

At this time, he wanted to persuade the prince to return to the other courtyard temporarily. However, based on his understanding of the prince over the years, he knew in his heart that since the emperor's brother had made a decision, it would be impossible to change no matter what.

But the more this happened, Huangfu Haotian's heart became more and more sad. The feeling of wanting to say but unable to speak made him feel in pain for a moment.

Until the group came to the bluestone hut in the orchid valley, looking at the humble room in front of them, Huangfu Haotian's heart finally burst out uncontrollably.

Looking back, he looked at Qingfeng with red eyes: "You, go and find the craftsman in charge of repairing the place for me. I want to ask him, how can the crown prince live in such a simple place?"

Before Qingfeng turned around, the prince sitting in the wheelchair had already spoken: "Fourth brother! What nameless fire are you making?"

Huangfu Haotian turned out from behind the prince and was about to say something, but the prince waved his hand to stop him: "Okay, okay, I already know what you mean. However, fourth brother, I think you blamed them wrongly. I really like this bluestone hut, not to mention that everything here was arranged by my brother himself. So, if you go to them now, wouldn't you let me go back on your word?"

Huangfu Haotian couldn't help but feel upset when he heard this: "But Brother, you are not in good health and you actually have to live in such a place. In addition, it is snowing outside and the whole valley is even colder. Wouldn't this kill the Emperor?"

The crown prince looked at his appearance at this moment and couldn't help but shook his head helplessly: "Fourth brother, I have already seen everything about Brother Wei. What else do you have to be unable to see? It's just a death. Even if you move the entire Eastern Palace here, can you stop Brother Wei from dying here in the end?"

"Brother!" Huangfu Haotian heard the prince's words and felt that every word was like a needle, and it was pierced in his heart, making him feel scarred and in vain. However, at this time, he didn't know what he had to do to relieve these pains.

At this moment, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had already moved the wheelchair under him alone and slowly slid into the middle of the stone house. There was a bronze-cast fire tripod, but at this moment, it seemed a little cold in the fire tripod.

The prince reached out and took out a fire note from his arms, and then blew it, slowly igniting the charcoal fire in the fire tripod. Looking at the bright yellow flame that was rushing upwards, a faint smile flashed across the prince's face.

"Did you see it? In just a while, it will be filled with warmth. And there is a hanging pot above the fire cauldron, which is a gap for making fire to keep warm. You can also burn a pot of hot water here. As long as you need it, you will have tea to drink at any time."

When he said this, the crown prince suddenly turned around and looked at Huangfu Haotian and laughed: "Fourth brother, do you know? Youlan personally taught me about this. Now, it is enough for a dying person like me to have these."

"Brother..." Huangfu Haotian's heart was very upset for a moment, and he even said that he didn't know where to start.

At this time, the crown prince had already taken the filled kettle from Molan's hand and then gently placed it on an iron hook specially made on the fire tripod. When the water vapor at the bottom of the kettle encountered the hot charcoal fire, it suddenly burst out with a "sneer" sound. Then, it was Molan's faint laughter: "Uncle Wang, don't worry, with Lan'er here to accompany her father, Lan'er will definitely take good care of her father."

Huangfu Haotian couldn't help but sigh softly when he heard this: "Oh, I can't understand, brother, why are you doing this?"

The crown prince smiled at him and said, "Actually, you know in your heart, and Brother Wei also knows that the reason why you are like this is just because you feel sorry for Brother Wei. However, Brother Wei still said the same thing, we two can really do it. So, please rest assured, Fourth Brother."

After watching the father and daughter clean up the house, the crown prince turned his head again and smiled at everyone, "Teacher, Haotian, Ali, since you have arrived here, if you don't let you go to worship Youlan, you will definitely feel uncomfortable. It would be better for us to go to Youlan's grave together and pay tribute to her first. In this way, we don't need to delay your trip too much."

"Dad, Lan'er is here to push you." After hearing this, Mo Lan had already run to the prince's side and was about to push the prince's wheelchair.

"Lan'er, this time, let Uncle Wang send your father over." After hearing this, the prince nodded to Mo Lan: "Since that's the case, Lan'er will listen to your Uncle Wang once."

Huangfu Haotian pushed the crown prince, Xiao Li held Mo Lan in his hand, and Doctor Mo was carrying a basket of fresh fruits, which contained a pot of pure daughter Hong. After leaving the bluestone hut, the group walked towards the tomb not far away.

The snow had only been falling for a while, but at this time, the lonely grave was covered with snow-white.

Among these people, Xiao Li was the only one who had never met the young Lansu and had nothing to do with her before.

However, even so, when Xiao Li silently knelt in front of the strange woman's grave, the solemnity in her heart seemed particularly heavy.

Sometimes, she really wanted to see what kind of woman was sleeping here. Although her life was filled with painful misfortunes, God could give her a lover like her like her and a smart child like Molan, which was already a great happiness for her, right?

Thinking of this, Xiao Li bowed to Youlan's grave more devoutly. He silently prayed to heaven in his heart that if there were really gods in this world, I hope that the prince would meet her again and become a happy couple in the next life.

After the crowd worshipped Youlan, the crown prince took out a green jade wine bottle and planned to pour a glass of wine for Youlan to send her lovesickness for her.

But unexpectedly, when the stopper of the green jade wine bottle was opened, the crown prince's brow frowned for no reason.

"What's going on? Didn't I bring the best Shanjiu from the palace? Why did I suddenly become my daughter's red?" Although the prince's voice was not loud, it made people feel sad: "Although Youlan only drank Shanjiu once before, she really fell in love with that pure taste, but why did this... suddenly turn into her daughter's red?"

"Brother, what's going on?" Huangfu Haotian couldn't help but follow him and became anxious: "What's wrong? Who is responsible for these things? If I know, I will definitely punish him for dereliction of duty!"

When the crown prince heard this, he couldn't help but slowly raised his head: "Haotian." He called Huangfu Haotian softly, his face softly: "It's just a bottle of wine, and it's not so serious that he wants to punish others."

"But the emperor's brother!" Huangfu Haotian was really anxious about him.

The prince looked at his expression and could not help but nodded: "You know my nature. Although I don't want to pursue this crime of dereliction of duty, I have to use it to pay tribute to Youlan for my brother."

When Huangfu Haotian heard this, he quickly replied: "Don't worry, brother, I will let Qingfeng go back and take it away now."

When the crown prince heard this, he shook his head: "Fourth brother, I think about this matter, it's better to ask you to go there yourself, because if it were the other ones, I would be a little relieved."

After hearing this, Huangfu Haotian felt a little strange, but he didn't think much about it. After all, it is the main thing to be able to coax the emperor's brother to the point of being able to do so.

Thinking of this, Huangfu Haotian turned around and walked, took a few steps, and heard the prince reminding him behind him: "Fourth brother, remember, in addition to the good wine, bring more rose cakes."

Huangfu Haotian responded to him and flew onto the horse's back and left here as if he was flying.

After Huangfu Haotian left, the crown prince turned around and said to Doctor Mo: "Mr., you can take Lan'er down now. After all, it's cold and cold here, and Lan'er is just entering the sect of merit. I'm afraid she won't be able to bear it for the time being."

"Okay, I'll take Lan'er back now." Dr. Mo said, then reached out and pulled Molan's little hand and said to her: "Lan'er, listen to Daddy, let's go back to get some warmth and come with Daddy again?"

Seeing that the crown prince had abandoned so many people in one breath, he did not mention Xiao Li's name. For a moment, a strange feeling suddenly surged in Xiao Li's heart.

Looking at the prince's movement, was he deliberately leaving Xiao Li here alone this time?

In terms of serious matters, Xiao Li has never been a passive person. So this time, when she had a trace of doubt about the prince's behavior in her heart, she naturally would not pretend that nothing had happened.

So, Xiao Li suddenly spoke, "Brother deliberately sent the prince and Doctor Mo away, but do you have anything to say to A Li?"

When the crown prince suddenly heard her say this, he couldn't help but laugh at her: "Ali, Ali, what's the point of asking me to say to you?" At this point, he shook his head at Xiao Li and said, "Sometimes, can't you be a little more aware of it? As a woman, why do you have to give people a delicate feeling?"

Xiao Li suddenly laughed when she heard this.

To be honest, there are many times when she really wants to be just a confused little girl. But unfortunately, the training she received in her previous life has been deeply engraved into her bones. So often, unconsciously, her keen sixth sense will exert extraordinary effects. And with such a keen feeling, she becomes sharp without realizing it.

Fortunately, the crown prince didn't want to worry too much about her at this time. As Xiao Li thought in his heart, the reason why he sent everyone away this time was of course because there were some things that he wanted to talk to Xiao Li alone.

"Ali, please get closer." The prince called her in front of her and looked at her eyes with a curious look: "Sometimes, I am really curious in my heart. I always feel that you should not be a woman in this world, but these are probably just a fantasy in my heart. Because everyone knows that you are the only daughter of the general Xiao Li."

Xiao Li was secretly shocked when she heard this, but soon she had adjusted her emotions. As the prince said, even if he was suspicious in his heart, he could never find any evidence to prove that Xiao Li was not a person in this world.

So at this moment, Xiao Li couldn't help but laugh at the crown prince: "What my brother said is that sometimes I also fantasize about how great it would be if I was not a person in this world, but a fairy in the sky. If that were the case, I could really be free and live the life I like every day."

When the crown prince heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "You really know how to think about it. But..." When he said this, he suddenly changed his mind, "Ali, since you were born as the general of the country protecting the country of Ling, and the woman that Haotian likes. So I hope that in the future, no matter what difficulties you will encounter, you should first consider everything based on the interests of my Daling country."

"What does the Crown Prince mean?" Xiao Li naturally did not expect that it was already this time. The Crown Prince actually raised these topics in front of her, and for a moment, the expression on her face became a little solemn.

When the crown prince saw her expression at this moment, he couldn't help but smile and said, "With Ali's talent, it should not be difficult to see that the forces in our Daling Kingdom are now brewing a new wave of storms and trends. Of course, this also includes the Haotian lineage."

"Ah?" Xiao Li felt a vague feeling in her heart. Although she had always been keen, she originally hoped that she could avoid such things. However, the crown prince actually mentioned Huangfu Haotian in front of her.

"But your Highness, the prince...what isn't everything he has at this time good?" In fact, Xiao Li really didn't have any strong ambitions. As she had been hoping for in her heart, if one day she could marry Huangfu Haotian to be his Princess Mingcheng, she would be very satisfied.

However, when the prince looked at her, it was completely different: "Why do you really think in your heart a smart woman like you?"

Xiao Li was speechless for a moment. If she didn't think so, how would she think about it?

"If your prince has anything to say, you might as well just say it." At this point, Xiao Li really doesn't want to listen to him playing the puzzle here anymore.
