Suddenly, a possibility flashed through his mind, which made Feng Lin stunned on the spot.

...The person that Qi Yan loves... Could it be him? !

Staring blankly at Qi Yan, Qi Yan first looked around in confusion, and then met Feng Lin's gaze. His calm expression suddenly became anxious and flustered, even with a hint of embarrassment.

"Your Majesty, I beg you to go to the palace to serve you!"

"Qi Yan you..." Feng Lin choked. Qi Yan's gesture obviously understood his expression just now, which made him even more flustered.

Did he guess right? Is the person that Qi Yan loves really him? !

Feng Lin was shocked by his own thoughts, and was even more shocked by Qi Yan's extreme reaction and couldn't move.

Qi Yan knelt on the ground with his eyes closed, waiting for Feng Lin's instructions as if in despair.

After a long time, Feng Lin's bewildered voice was heard: "Qi Yan, let me think about it, let me think about it carefully..."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to think too much! I will leave the palace on my own and move to the temporary palace!" Qi Yan did not give Feng Lin any chance to breathe, just as a way for the two of them to think about it carefully, or to give each other space to think about his feelings.

This time, Feng Lin did not say anything else, but when Qi Yan walked out, he looked at his back with a blank and nostalgic look.

Qi Yan still decided to leave the palace. He knew that Feng Lin would not stop him forcefully at this time. Qi Yan returned to the side hall and began to pack up his things. Xiao Anzi came in from outside and saw Qi Yan packing up his things, and he sighed.

"Brother Qi, you can't blame others for this. I don't know when this rumor started. The emperor can't do anything about it..."

Xiao Anzi thought that the emperor was afraid of rumors, so he drove Qi Yan out.

"Brother Qi, where can you go after leaving the palace?" Xiao Anzi worried, "You must take care of yourself."

"I'm going to the temporary palace." Qi Yan smiled lightly, "I'll leave this to you, don't embarrass yourself, I promoted you for so long in vain."

Xiao Anzi's eyes slowly turned red when he heard Qi Yan say this: "The temporary palace is a deserted place..."

"Okay, I'm not that delicate girl." Qi Yan packed up his things and was about to go out.

Xiao Anzi sent him off. Along the way, Qi Yan told him a lot about Feng Lin's habits, including the stomach cold.

The temporary palace is in the capital, but it is far away from the imperial palace. It takes half a day to get there by carriage. Not to mention that the emperor cannot leave the palace, even if he can leave the palace, Feng Lin is unwilling to go to such a remote place as the temporary palace.

The previous emperor always moved the disobedient princes and vicious concubines to the temporary palace, mostly in the name of recuperation, but in fact it was a cold palace outside the imperial palace. One can imagine, what kind of person is it that he is unwilling to give him even the cold palace in the palace?

Qi Yan moved to the temporary palace, but no one made things difficult for him. Maybe Feng Lin had arranged something in advance. In the temporary palace, he has the most authority.

Qi Yan never thought that after coming to the palace, a month would pass in a flash.

[Male protagonist's favorability towards Qi Yan +5, current favorability: 75]

[Male protagonist's favorability towards Qi Yan +5, current favorability: 80]

...

Qi Yan's escape was effective. Feng Lin raised his favorability to a higher level because of his longing for him.

It was only a short month, and Xiao Anzi was like his shadow, poking his heart all the time beside Feng Lin, making it impossible for him to avoid it. Qi Yan's shadow was all in front of his eyes and in his memory, his appearance, movements, figure, every glance and smile...

This kind of longing seemed to become a demon, making Feng Lin unable to extricate himself.

The temporary palace was becoming increasingly deserted. Every day, all he faced was dust and dead branches and leaves. Qi Yan had never seen such a desolate scene. Every time he saw it, he couldn't help but sigh.

He didn't know how Feng Lin was doing, or whether his stomach cold had recurred... It would

be a lie to say that he wasn't worried. No matter how calm he appeared, he couldn't erase the worry in his heart.

Maybe this was just the beginning. The next time they met would probably be a month later...

He fell asleep in the darkness at night, and no longer had to worry about Feng Lin calling him. It was such a good feeling, but he didn't sleep well.

Qi Yan felt a little regretful. He left the palace so rashly and came to the temporary palace. If he had another chance, he probably wouldn't come out. He would just lie to him, stay by his side, and watch over him every day.

At some point, the anxiety that had been lingering in her heart because of the failure of the strategy turned into the melancholy of longing. Qi Yan felt that she was about to become the little housewife who was looking forward to her husband's return every day.

Another month passed, and Qi Yan heard that a new batch of beauties had come to the palace, and the emperor had put down many of their names.

While feeling jealous, she was also worried that there would be a heroine among the beauties.

That night, Qi Yan brought a pot of sake, sat alone by the bed, and drank the sake sip by sip in the moonlight, blowing in the cold wind.

This is what it means to drown your sorrows in wine...

The bright color of the moonlight was gradually obscured by the clouds, turning into an unattractive blue-gray color. Looking at the moon, Qi Yan sneered.

"Even you can pity me..."

"Who can pity you?"

"The moon, you actually changed into such a color, aren't you making fun of me?"

"Are you angry?"

...

The action of preparing to drink suddenly stopped, Qi Yan turned around in disbelief, and saw Feng Lin standing behind him in a nightgown, looking at him with a smile in his eyes.

"...Your Majesty?!" Qi Yan exclaimed, and kneeled down reflexively.

"Hey!" Feng Lin helped him up: "I finally came to see you once, and you are going to waste it on this etiquette?"

Qi Yan was stunned when he heard it: "Come to see me?"

Feng Lin looked at his appearance and suddenly smiled. His handsome face was filled with smiles, which made him look even more handsome.

"Yes, who else in this palace can let me visit him?"

Qi Yan smiled happily, and then froze as if he remembered something: "No, no, Your Majesty, please go back to the palace."

If someone knew that the emperor was not in the palace at the moment, what would happen if there was a political turmoil?

"Hey, don't worry, I have arranged everything." Feng Lin said, his eyes suddenly softened, looking at Qi Yan's increasingly thin face, he reached out and gently stroked it: "You have lost weight..."

Being treated so gently, Qi Yan couldn't hold back his tears.

"I'm so glad that the emperor can come to see me..."

"What else did you miss from me?" Feng Lin wiped his tears and suddenly said, "No, you should have missed many more."

Qi Yan was puzzled: "Missed?"

"If I hadn't guessed it, would you have told me?" Feng Lin looked at Qi Yan and slowly walked towards him: "So of course you missed many more..." You

missed many more words that you should have said.

After they parted in the palace, God knows how much he missed Qi Yan.

Qi Yan lowered his head in embarrassment, and after a long time, he murmured softly: "The person I love... is you."

"What?" Feng Lin was ecstatic in his heart, but pretended not to hear.

"I said..." Qi Yan's face turned redder: "The person I love is you."

[The male protagonist's favorability towards Qi Yan +20, current favorability: 100]

Feng Lin smiled and walked forward to hug Qi Yan, stroking his back.

"Wait for me, I will take you back to the palace."
