Chapter 26 Two Dances and Leave

Xiaohuan left the city without stopping at all and went straight to the mountains and forests. He didn't want to go back to the snake world for the time being, so he had to find a safe place to cultivate. The hot spring in the deep mountains is undoubtedly the best place to go.

Xiaohuan has never done anything and doesn't care about anything. If he really cares about loyalty, Lin Qian has made a big taboo, so although he is immersed in the water at this moment, he still can't ignore the anger in his heart.

Snakes are afraid of cold, especially snakes with hot blood like Xiaohuan. In addition, he is seriously injured and his chest is cold, so although his huge body is coiled in the hot spring water, there is still no way to warm him up. The cold sword hurts him too much. He knows that if he rests like this, he will be exhausted. Hundreds of years... and he didn't want to wait at all!

Xiaohuan filled her chest with anger and couldn't sleep at all. Her chest fluctuated heavily, and the wound was bleeding. The blood slowly flowed into the water. Soon, the hot spring water bubbled as if it had boiled. Xiaohuan felt a little warmth from the outside world, forced herself to calm down, closed her spiritual knowledge, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

After receiving the reply from the master, Shuangwu was much more down-to-earth. She comforted Lin Qian to sleep and was ready to leave the capital, but before leaving, she looked at Lin Qian, who was curled up in a small ball on the couch, sighed, and left a note for the prince before leaving.

When the prince returned to the palace, he was worried about finding someone to replace Linglan. He happened to meet the return of the former national teacher. Wan Yi explained his intention and was willing to guard the capital and solve the problems for the prince, which made the prince more at ease. But Wanyi's whereabouts have always been uncertain. The prince knew that he was willing to come back this time, mostly for the double dance.

The prince did not arrange the scenery to bury Linglan, but quietly buried Linglan in the Taoist temple with Wanyi. Linglan died at the hands of a snake demon. If this spread out, people must be panic, so they can only wrong Linglan and bury him in the Taoist temple.

After everything was done, the prince came to his private house non-stop. He gently knocked on the door and saw that Lin Qian did not respond. He opened the door and walked in. He saw Lin Qian curled up on the couch and slept uneasily.

The prince sighed inaudiblely and approached to help Lin Qian with the quilt. He was about to leave when he suddenly heard Lin Qian say, "It's all my fault..."

"It doesn't matter about you." The prince sat by the bed and said slowly, "I don't know what Shuangwu said to take care of Xiaohuan, but today's incident is a hatred between Linglan and Xiaohuan, which has nothing to do with you."

"I caught Xiaohuan and gave him a chance... Otherwise... Otherwise, Linglan..."

"Even without you, Linglan will still die." The prince thought carefully about what happened today. He found that Lin Qian's kindness to Xiaohuan seemed to be due to Shuangwu's persuasion. Looking at Lin Qian's self-blaming at this moment, he had no way to blame him at all, so he had to comfort him: "Linglan wanted to kill Xiaohuan, and that's why he was killed. I don't blame you for these things. Don't think so much."

Lin Qian sat up and sighed, "Xiaohuan must hate me to death..."

"He is the snake king, and he won't be so unmeaning." The prince did not understand Xiaohuan, but relieved Lin Qian with his understanding of the king. He didn't know whether Xiaohuan would really come back to avenge them, but today's matter was originally a misunderstanding. He thought that Xiaohuan could figure it out, so he didn't pay attention to it.

Lin Qian shook his head and said nothing.

According to Xiaohuan's flawed personality, he said that he was injured today and said that he did not watch Linglan or even remind him of this. I'm afraid he will also remember it... Lin Qian thought that if he was Xiaohuan, he would be deceived by a small vegetable snake again and again and intentionally or unintentionally, He must be angry, not to mention... This time he was so seriously injured... I'm afraid that his practice of killing his peers is deeply rooted in his heart.

"Don't be afraid." The prince thought that Lin Qian was afraid and gently touched Lin Qian's head and said, "The former national master has re-laid the boundary. Even if he really comes to revenge, he doesn't have to worry. There will be nothing wrong."

Lin Qian nodded and only felt upset. He felt wronged and felt sorry for Xiaohuan. At the thought of Linglan's open eyes, he was even more frightened and unable to sleep.

The prince looked at the full moon outside the window and said to Lin Qian, "It's getting late. Go to bed. I'll leave when you fall asleep."

Lin Qian didn't say anything more and rolled his body back into the quilt.

The prince got up and walked to the table and sat down. Suddenly, he saw the note left by the double dance on the table. He frowned slightly and picked up the note.

A few words, the handwriting is beautiful: Xiaohuan's life meets a demon, but Lin Qian can be broken, remember. If you leave today, there will be no future. Cherish it.

The prince took the note left by Shuangwu and read it over and over again. He could almost think of the appearance of Shuangwu sitting here and writing these words. His doubts must have hurt her. If she really did not care about the country of the Yan family, she could have lived in seclusion all the world at all, as a thing that might disturb the prosperous world. The snake demon is worried...

The prince carefully put away the note, rubbed his eyebrows and sighed. For Shuangwu, he is a robber, and what right do you have to accuse her of suspicion... If Shuangwu really feels unfair or has any ideas, then he is the one who should be questioned and needs to leave sadly...

"What's wrong with you?" Lin Qian couldn't sleep, and she couldn't accept what happened today. Just now, when she saw the prince worried about the note, she was not disturbed by her birth. But at this moment, when she saw the prince alone and sighed, she got up and came down from the couch and sat on the round chair opposite the prince and said, "I can't sleep. Why don't we talk? Let's chat."

"Good." The prince was bored because of what he said. Since Lin Qian was willing to chat with him, it was not impossible for the two to talk.

"I... heard you sigh." Lin Qian lay at the table and did not look at the prince, but fiddled with the candlelight, which looked very gentle in response to the candlelight.

"I said something wrong. It hurt the heart of Shuangwu. The prince smiled bitterly.

"What did you say?" Lin Qian looked at the prince doubtfully. He wanted to ask clearly, but he felt that he should not ask more questions and said, "Sister Xiaowu is so good that she will not blame you."

"She is really sad." The prince paused and said, "She left a note saying that we will not see each other again in this life."

"How could it be like this..." Lin Qian didn't know what the prince said to Shuangwu. She had been in a daze and didn't pay attention to the dialogue between the prince and Shuangwu, so she didn't know what the prince said was so serious that they would never see each other.

"She is the most tolerant and generous person in the world to me." The prince did not answer the question but did not go on.

"You..." Lin Qian really wanted to know more, but she didn't know how to ask. After all, she opened her mouth and didn't ask any more questions.

"You should know that she is my sister." In the prince's opinion, even if Shuangwu doesn't want to say it, he will definitely clarify their relationship with Lin Qian before asking him for help, so he said this at this moment just to say what he wants to say later.

"You? Is it brother and sister?" Lin Qian suddenly didn't know what to react. He thought it was the prince who hurt Shuangwu, but now he seemed to have thought too much.

"Didn't you say double dance?" The prince shook his head and smiled bitterly, "She really doesn't want to admit that she is from the Yan family."

"Sister Wu really didn't say that... I thought..."

"We are brothers and sisters. Her name is Yan Shuangwu, and my name is Yan Shuanglie. The prince felt that there was nothing unspeakable about this matter, because as long as the people who had lived in the capital for more than 80 years knew that he had a compatriot sister and followed the national teacher to practice Taoism. This is not a secret at all, and the prince naturally does not have to hide it.

"Why doesn't Sister Xiaowu live in the capital?"

"A lot of things happened in those years, and I can't explain them in a word or two." The prince smiled and sighed and said, "She has done too much for me. If it hadn't been for me, she could have stayed in the palace to enjoy all the glory and wealth, but..."

"If those things make you sad, then don't say it." Lin Qian's ability to observe words and colors was very strong. She saw that the prince was difficult to say, and these things that were not easily said were determined in her heart as things she should not know. The deep palace compound is too complicated. It's better not to ask more about her as a little snake.

"I can't say I'm sad... but... I feel guilty..." The prince only felt uncomfortable when he remembered the period of no seeing each other written by the double dance on the note, and his eyes turned slightly red.

"Can I hug you?" Seeing the prince like this, Lin Qian suddenly thought of her adoptive father and couldn't help but feel a little sad. If she hadn't been taken in by her adoptive father in those years, it would have been impossible for her to survive. In just a few years, she had such deep feelings for her adoptive father, not to mention the prince and the double dance.

The prince was stunned when he heard Lin Qian's words, and then looked at the tearful look in Lin Qian's eyes. Then he got up and held Lin Qian into his arms. The two had their own feelings, but they didn't say anything more.

In those years, the prince and Shuangwu were born at the same time, and the colorful clouds outside the hall circled like a divine dragon for three days. According to the practice, those who live with the colorful clouds were established as the prince, so Yan Shuanglie naturally became the prince. Yan Shuangwu was also awarded the title of Princess Yong'an because his brother is the prince.

Until the two grew up to eight years old, the national teacher Wanyi suddenly visited with the emperor's secret order and took Yan Shuangwu to the Taoist temple. Since then, he has never returned to the palace.

The two had never been separated before the age of eight, so although the double dance did not enter the palace again, the prince often went in and out of Taoism, and the two were still close.

A few years later, on the day of their adulthood, Wanyi took the double dance and left without knowing where to go. When the emperor told Yan Shuanglie the reason why the double dance had to leave and sent a white pigeon, the white pigeon became his only contact with the double dance.

After that, Yan Shuanglie worked harder than before, read poems, witty and benevolence, and soon became the most popular among all the princes, and only he knew the reason for all this.
