Chapter 27 National Teacher's Evening Memory
After a long time, the prince restrained his mind and loosened Lin Qian, and asked softly, "Would you like to stay in the capital all the time?"
The prince has made up his mind. No matter what the reason is, Lin Qian is the first person to make him willing to speak his mind. Although he doesn't say much, he can at least say something. It is so rare to meet a person who can speak, and he is bound to leave Lin Qian in the capital.
"Think!" Lin Qian said without thinking, "But... I don't want to be like this all the time. You have to do something to support yourself.
"Yes." The prince nodded and said, "I really should help you think about what to do. After all, my life is limited and I can't take care of you all the time. Tell me what you want to do? Let's see if I can help."
"I... said that you will definitely object..." Lin Qian did not say it directly, but tentatively said such a sentence, trying to explore the prince's style.
"Let's talk about it first. I try not to object." The prince smiled gently and felt that Lin Qian's eyes were very clear, but when he talked about his thoughts, his eyes were different and beautiful.
"You also know that I used to open a brothel..." Lin Qian looked at the prince's unchanged expression and chose the words and said, "How do you think I'm opening a brothel in the capital?"
"What?" The prince only felt a headache and funny. This little guy used to open a brothel, but now he still wants to open the brothel in the capital. As the prince, is he going to help celebrate? Thinking about it, the prince replied, "Isn't it better to drive something else? The teahouse is relatively quiet and elegant, and it can also gather many literati and tourists, which is also very lively.
"Of course, the teahouse is good, but I don't like it." Lin Qian thought that if the prince really didn't want to, she would do nothing for the time being. She had thought about opening the brothel early in the morning, and this would not change.
"Why did you open a brothel?" The prince really couldn't figure it out. Although demons don't seem to need to avoid suspicion, why did a woman think of opening a brothel and be in a mixed place with fish and dragons?
"Although the brothel sounds bad, you can see the living conditions of many people." Lin Qian looked at the prince and continued: "I have not studied in a private school for a long time. Although I have learned to read and read poetry, it is not very useful. My adoptive father has always told me that only countless people can learn the foundation of life. I think it makes sense."
"Can't you do anything other than the brothel?" The prince had to admit that it was true that it was easier to adapt to life only by countless people, but he could not easily accept Lin Qian's request to open a brothel.
"If it is a teahouse, it must be a scholar or a rich man, but this only represents some people." Seeing that the prince frowned slightly, Lin Qian changed his words and said, "In the brothel, you can see the elegant prince, and you can also meet the poor man who borrows money and is greedy. You can see all aspects of life more clearly, can't you?"
The prince was not in a hurry to speak. In addition to opening the brothel, he still agreed with Lin Qian's statement. He had to admit that Lin Qian knew no less than some scholars he had met, and even more than him, but Lin Qian was a woman, which made him not know whether he should agree.
"What will you do if I don't agree?"
"Then do nothing." Lin Qian smiled, seemingly inadvertently picked up the teapot and poured two cups of cold tea. He pushed one of them in front of the prince and said, "Is your highness willing to drink this herbal tea, or do you want to wait for me to boil water and drink hot tea?"
The prince shook his head and smiled, "I see. I'll accompany you to see the place at dawn."
"Good." Lin Qian smiled sweetly and was even happier. She thought it would waste some time persuading the prince, but she didn't expect it to make sense so soon.
On a long night, the prince did not mention Xiaohuan from beginning to end, and Lin Qian did not take the initiative to talk about it. But it has happened, and even if they don't say it, someone will still mention it.
The next morning, when the two were about to go out, Wan Yi unexpectedly visited.
Lin Qian did not see Wanyi, but when she heard the prince call someone to be the national teacher, Lin Qian also saluted but did not say anything. She thought that the national teacher was looking for the prince and was about to avoid it, but suddenly heard Wanyi say, "Lin Qian, I want to talk to you in detail."
"Talk to me?" Lin Qian looked at Wan Yi and said subconsciously, "I don't have Neidan, really."
"The old road came for Xiaohuan." Wanyi did not shy away and explained the intention directly. But this sentence made Lin Qian, who had been in a relaxed mood, feel melancholy again. Xiao Huan said that all Taoist priests wanted him to die... Is this Taoist priest the same...
"National teacher, yesterday's incident... Lin Qian was frightened. Can you not mention it for the time being?" The prince looked at Lin Qian's dim eyes and said to Wan Yi, "Lin Qian didn't know about Xiaohuan's killing of Linglan."
"Of course the old man knows." Wan Yi looked at the prince and said, "Can the prince avoid it? What the old man wants to talk about is the way for Lin Qian to protect himself."
"I'll bring some breakfast back." The prince looked at Lin Qian with some uneasies, but he knew that there must be a reason for him to avoid it. Although he knew that Wanyi came back because of the double dance, and the double dance would naturally think of him, but what should Lin Qian do?
The prince believes that since the double dance asked Lin Qian to take care of Xiaohuan, Lin Qian has been calculated. He can't see the fate of others, but Dao Wanyi can. He must have used Lin Qian to deal with Xiaohuan. Even if he thought of this, he could not question Lin Qian. He was the prince. Everyone was for the sake of his Yan family, and he couldn't say anything more. He had no other way to make up for it except to be good to Lin Qian next.
Lin Qian and Wan Yi entered the room. Before Wan Yi could speak, Lin Qian first asked, "Is Xiao Huan all right?"
"Why did you ask me?"
"Because you are here for him, you must know about him." Lin Qian looked at Wan Yi, and the melancholy in her eyes had already disappeared. She didn't want to participate in these Taoist priests and Xiaohuan. She just wanted to live a stable life. So when I see the Taoist priest at this moment, I am somewhat rejected.
"He is going through disaster." Wan Yi smiled and said, "And you are the obstacle he must break."
"You mean he will come to kill me?" As soon as Lin Qian heard this, the first thing she thought of was that Xiaohuan's decision to leave made her feel a little uncomfortable.
"I will." Wan Yi paused and said, "But if you die, the world will be in chaos. Therefore, I'm here to save you. Only by saving your life can you save the lives of the world.
"What does it mean?" Lin Qianxiu frowned slightly and was very puzzled by Wan Yi's words. What did the world have to do with her?
"Xiaohuan inherited the blood of the ancient fierce beast and will become a demon sooner or later. If he becomes a demon, no one can defeat him. Wan Yi spoke very slowly. He looked at Lin Qian's still puzzled expression and said, "And you are the person who can help him restrain his magic."
"Me? He wants to kill me, and it's too late for me to escape. How can I restrain it?!"
"I can't figure out your origin, but you should know it." Wan Yi said meaningfully, "The old man will do his best to save your life. Don't worry."
"What do you want me to do?" Lin Qian didn't appreciate it at all. She didn't believe that the Taoist priest really came to help her, but the Taoist priest's origin really surprised her. The doubts hidden in her heart for many years made her want to ask now, but she didn't dare. Maybe the Taoist priest just said it casually...
"Put this away, and Xiaohuan will definitely come back to you when he recovers." Wanyi handed a small pill to Lin Qian and said, "Drop the blood from your fingertips on the pill and find a way to let him eat it, so that you don't have to worry about what he will do to you in the future."
"What is this? Do you want me to kill him?"
"You can't kill him. No one can kill him all over the world." Wanyi said softly, "Drop your blood and let Xiaohuan eat it, and the blood spell will take effect. Since then, you have given birth to him, and you will die. In this way, Xiaohuan will restrain himself and save your life."
"I can't trust you." Lin Qian returned the pill to Wan Yi and said, "Even if he doesn't die, if he is injured because of this, I will blame myself for guilt, not to mention who knows what you think."
"Taoist priests will not kill innocent people indiscriminately." Wanyi couldn't laugh or cry about Lin Qian's doubts.
"But the Taoist priest will kill demons. Xiaohuan is now a demon. As you said, he will become a demon in the future. Who can guarantee that you won't kill him?" Lin Qian didn't want to get along with Wan Yi anymore, so he got up and wanted to go out.
"Lin Qian, I asked Shuangwu to take you to Beijing when Xiaohuan chased you, and I also repaired the boundary of the capital after Xiaohuan was injured." Wanyi stood in front of Lin Qian and said seriously, "You can't believe me, but you should at least be responsible for yourself. Although you are a snake, in fact you are not, right?"
"What else do you know?"
"I know everything except your origin." Wan Yi sighed and said, "Only your fate and Xiaohuan intersect, and no one can contain him except you, so please leave this pill and find a way to save your life."
Lin Qian took the pill and looked at it stunned. Wan Yi was right. She is not a real snake, but... can this pill alone save her life?
Lin Qian wanted to ask about himself again, but he didn't know when he had disappeared.
The prince pushed the door in and put it on the table in the morning and said, "Yan Yi is the master of double dance and the most profound national teacher in history. He knows astronomy and geography, is modest and decent, and the people respect him very much.
"Is he the master of Sister Xiaowu?" Lin Qian looked at the prince and asked, "Is it the Taoist priest who said he took Xiaowu away?"
"Yes." The prince smiled bitterly and said, "That is, he has been carrying Shuangwu. This time, as soon as Linglan died, he should be able to come back in time. What did he say?"
"He said that Xiaohuan would come to me and let me feed the pills to Xiaohuan." Lin Qian handed the pills to the prince and carefully observed the prince's expression. She did not dare to fully believe the Taoist priest and only hoped to see something from the prince.
The prince took the pill and was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "He even gave you this..."
