Tian Zong raised his face, and sure enough, there was a drizzle in the sky, and there was a slight layer of moisture on his face.Ning Xingye said in a low voice: "Master, let's go back, so as not to catch a cold in the rain."

Of course Tian Zong shook his head and refused: "With such a drizzle, you will catch a cold somewhere."

Ning Xingye made a bitter face: "I came out to relax because I was afraid that His Highness would be bored. If you catch a cold in the rain, it would be good. Qiu Dajian is still covering you in the hall, waiting eagerly; if you are like this, he will definitely kill you later." scolded me."

Tian Zong said: "You kid was in a hurry and abducted me to come out, and now you insist on going back, are you so easy to play tricks on me!"

Ning Xingye was in a dilemma, scratched his head and thought for a while, and asked tentatively: "The minister's house is right next door, why don't you go to the minister's house for a while, Your Highness, and if the rain stops later, let's go to the Water God Temple."

This remark was in the heart of the heavens, and he was eager to agree immediately, but deliberately murmured: "The people in your family..."

Ning Xingye hurriedly said: "There are no servants in the minister's family. The third brother has gone back to the school, and now only the eldest brother is here. He is still sick, and he will not come out behind closed doors. He won't know that His Highness is going."

Tian Zong reluctantly nodded: "That's fine, I'll go sit down for a while."

Ning Xingye obeyed, so he waved his hand to call out the hidden guard who was following them, and ordered: "Go back to the palace and inform Chief Qiu, don't make him anxious." The hidden guard took the order and went.

Tian Zong pressed his heartbeat and followed Ning Xingye to Ning's house.

Although one of the brothers of the Ning family is the deputy commander of the imperial guards and the other is the commander of the prince's bodyguards, they live in simple and simple residences. Except that they are very close to the imperial city, the rest of the furnishings are simple and plain. where people live.

Tian Zong was let into the main hall by Ning Xingye, looked around, and couldn't help sighing: "You guys are too shabby, and the Japanese Palace will reward you with some things tomorrow."

Ning Xingye didn't care, poured tea for him, and said with a grin: "Your Highness is used to extravagance, and his eyes are full of rare things, but now he's staying in this poor, shabby hut, isn't it just a good time to keep his eyes clean."

Tian Zong was about to scold him, but he heard a commotion in the courtyard.Listen carefully, it seems that someone is playing the piano intermittently; this person seems to be a novice, completely out of order, and his voice is stiff and clumsy.After only a few strokes, Tian Zong couldn't bear to listen, so he frowned and said, "Is this your neighbor playing the piano? Tell him to stop playing tomorrow, or waste the instrument for nothing."

Ning Xingye smiled and said: "It's not the neighbor, it's the elder brother. I've been sick and bored these few days. I somehow remembered this. I found this piano score by myself, and occasionally played it to me, which disturbed His Highness."

"Oh?" Tian Zong regretted what he said just now, and immediately became curious again: "When did Ning Xinghe become so elegant? He actually learned to play the piano?" At this point, he stood up: "It's rare, I will go Take a look, and take a look at his illness by the way."

Ning Xingye stopped him in embarrassment: "Your Highness, eldest brother is still not well, I'm afraid I'll give you a bad temper; and we'll leave the palace quietly, it's better not to let others know, go back as soon as possible."

It's all here, Tian Zong doesn't care about him, he just walks in: "It's okay, I just asked your elder brother to keep a secret, anyway, he was also one of my subordinates, don't you dare to be disobedient?"

The courtyard is quiet, only a few thin moso bamboos are sparsely planted beside the corridor, the plantains under the bamboos are obviously left unattended, and the red flowers on the top are already withered.Sure enough, no one else was there, it was pitch black, only one room was lit, and the unbearable low piano sound came from there.

Tian Zong walked to the window in one breath, and suddenly stopped in his tracks: Since he has the energy to play the piano, he thinks his illness is fine, so he should rest assured, why bother to visit him face to face?Isn't this deliberately provoking him again?

Thinking of this, he turned his head and wanted to leave; but, looking at the light coming out of the window again, thinking that he could see that person as long as he lifted his foot in, his feet felt as if they were stuck to the ground, and he couldn't move forward.

While hesitating whether to go or not to go, the raindrops suddenly became larger.Ning Xingye, who was following behind and was about to come over, stopped under the porch at the other end of the yard, and shouted to him: "Look, it's lucky that I didn't go to the temple fair, and it really rained heavily! Why are you so dazed, go in and take shelter from the rain."

When Tian Zong came back to his senses, Ning Xingye gestured to him, signaling him to take shelter from the rain.Tian Zong was heartbroken, so he stepped up the steps and went to the front porch of the house to hide from the rain.

Ning Xingye said: "You stood outside carefully and got the rain, why don't you come to the front hall!" He was about to walk over when he slapped his head again: "By the way, the rain got rid of it, so I need to drink some ginger soup to get rid of it." That's good!" Saying that, he cupped his hands and hurried back to the kitchen, thinking he was going to make ginger soup.

Tian Zong was in a dilemma, Ning Xinghe in the house had already heard the sound and came out to take a look. When he opened the door and saw him, he opened his eyes wide.

Tian Zong had nowhere to hide, and was at a loss for a while, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "I, I happened to pass by, and I heard that you were sick, so I came to have a look..."

As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I didn't feel right. As a prince, I lived in the East Palace, how could I happen to pass by here?

Seeing that although Xinghe's face was no longer sick, but he was only wearing a single piece of clothing, he changed his words abruptly: "You have just recovered from the cold, go in quickly, it is raining heavily outside."

Ning Xinghe retreated to the door obediently, bowed beside the door to please, and said softly: "This place is simple, please come in, Your Highness."

Tian Zong looked back at the corridor, but he couldn't see Ning Xingye's figure. The rain outside was getting heavier. If he wanted to refuse to enter the house, but he couldn't think of a suitable reason, it seemed deliberate; thinking that Ning Xingye was going to make ginger soup, it should be soon Coming over, I had no choice but to walk into the Xinghe room, smiled as if nothing had happened: "I just heard you playing the piano, I was curious, so I came to take a look..."

He had just entered the door, and before he finished speaking, Ning Xinghe turned around and closed the door, and walked in front of him, seeming a bit angry: "Does your Highness think that the minister is playing the piano indiscriminately, spoiling the clear hearing?"

Tian Zong hurriedly said: "No, I didn't mean that..." But he didn't know who the piano player was before, so he really thought so.Thinking about it this way, I couldn't hide it, and I was so embarrassed that I didn't know what to say. Standing in front of him, I felt my mouth was dry, and I couldn't stay longer, so I coughed dryly: "Forget it, it seems that your illness has recovered; so , I will go back first." Saying that, he walked around Xinghe, intending to return to the front hall quickly.

Before his hand touched the doorknob, the wind moved behind him, and his back felt hot, and he was hugged tightly.Tian Zong froze, Ning Xinghe didn't speak, just wrapped his arms around him, clinging to his back, his heartbeat became more and more violent.

——I am leaving the palace privately, and the guards around me should be here soon; my concubine has been chosen, and I just wait for the marriage——Continuing to entangle with him like this will only hurt him more deeply.

Thinking about it, Tian Zong made up his mind to break off his fingers that were clasped on his body. He couldn't break them off after a few times, but he didn't dare to look back at him, so he sighed and said with difficulty: "Xinghe, I... I don't It's time to come."

Ning Xinghe hugged him even tighter, buried his face in his shoulder, and said in a muffled trembling voice: "I... I thought His Highness abandoned me. Your Highness can come here today, and I am so happy that I don't know what to say, I just ask His Highness Stay a little longer, don't leave so quickly. I am His Highness's man, and I have sworn allegiance to His Highness long ago, and I will come and go as soon as I am called, Your Highness does not need to care about my feelings."

Hearing the words, Tian Zong felt like a knife twisting his heart: "Don't say that, Xinghe...I..." He wanted to leave in his heart, but his footsteps turned involuntarily, he turned around and hugged him, and sighed: "I'm sorry... ..."

Ning Xinghe approached him silently and kissed his lips without dodging.

When his lips and tongue touched, Tian Zong felt as if his whole body was electrified.

For a long time, he tried his best not to let himself recall the feeling of that night under the peach blossom tree in the imperial garden, but at this moment, it was as if the gate was instantly reopened by the raging flood, not to mention reason, even hearing and vision were all gone, leaving only Blank.

After recovering a little bit of sanity, he was already entangled and hugged Ning Xinghe who was under him, and fell naked on the couch, hiding under the thin quilt.

The skin overlapped and fit perfectly; the bodies joined together without any concealment; the two were so hot that they were on fire inside and out.

Tian Zong used his hands to comb, but he messed up his thick long hair wantonly; it lingered on his lips, kissing him so hard that he refused to leave for even a moment.

Unable to control himself, Ning Xinghe completely encircled him, clinging to him tightly, pleading intermittently with tears in his voice, passionate and sad: "Your Highness... since you are here today, give me all, all Give it to me!—for the moment at least, you belong to me alone."

"Xinghe..." Tian Zong reached out to caress his face, wanting to say, "You are the only one in my heart."

After a pause, he still swallowed it—as the crown prince, he still needs to hold the great power and the people in his heart—he just called out his name: "Xinghe, Xinghe..."

They have been far away from each other for these days, and now, once the thirst of lovesickness is relieved, Tian Zong loses his mind, forgets where he is, and just wants to indulge in the fierce tolerance of the people under him, lingering to his heart's content.

Ning Xinghe seemed to be afraid that he would withdraw and leave in the next moment, wrapped him tightly in his arms, tensed his jaw, straightened his neck, but softened his body, catering to his movements.

The bewildering sound beside the ear is full of endless joy and satisfaction; the half-closed tearful eyes, the soft and slender eyelashes, are drawn by the dim light as two shadows like hooks, which rise and fall on the pillow, just hooked Heaven sent all the spirits to go.

——I am crazy, I went out of the palace without authorization, and did not return until nightfall; he is even more crazy, as the deputy commander of the imperial guards, just lying on the couch in his own home, entangled with the current prince desperately, Don't you know the consequences of being discovered?

—He knows, but he only wants me.

——From a long time ago, he wanted me with no hope but with all his strength.

Tian Zong stared at his face, and finally understood: no matter what, he couldn't let go of this person.Deliberate alienation will only hurt both of them.That being the case, it's better to face it calmly - try your best.

There is no time to think about all kinds of things outside of him at this moment.
