Unspeakable hatred of rich men
Chapter 6
From being raped to watching goldfish, Zuo Yanting was very grateful, so he didn't resist, and quietly followed Long Xi to the pond in front.
But when they quieted down, the people behind couldn't help whispering. Although Zuo Yanting's hearing was not as good as Long Xi's, those whispers became louder and louder, blowing into the air with the breeze. into his ears.
"What's the matter? This is the end of the matter? Impossible, how can our prince be willing to end the battle so quickly?"
"What kind of battle? It's not even enough to take off your clothes. How can it end? Haven't you seen it yet? The prince is sympathetic to Mr. Zuo. He probably doesn't want to do it, so he won't do it."
"Isn't it nonsense? Our prince has such a good intention? When will he be able to think of this for others?"
"Hey..." Zuo Yanting couldn't listen any longer. Even a scholar like himself, who has been influenced by Confucius and Mencius, could understand what those people were talking about. The servant of the tongue, why did he lose his prestige, and he didn't say punishment.
"What are you doing?" Long Xi turned around and said, "But I'm tired from walking? Then I'll carry you." After saying that, he made a real move, as if he wanted to carry Zuo Yanting on his back.
Zuo Yanting was so frightened that he quickly shook his hands, his face flushed, and he whispered: "I... whoever uses your back, these few steps will not trouble me, I... I want to ask you, you... ...Are you deaf? Those...those servants are speaking ill of you."
"Bad talk? Really? I didn't hear it." Long Xi tilted his head and looked at Zuo Yanting solemnly: "Where is it? What did you hear?"
"You...you really didn't hear?" Zuo Yanting's eyes widened, and he looked at Long Xi who was full of sternness in disbelief, then looked back, stammering: "Just...just now they said you ...How did you just...just..." The words of ending the battle were really beyond words, Zuo Yanting lowered his eyes, and thought to himself, forget it, his servants say bad things about him, what do I care .
"Oh, you said that." Unexpectedly, Long Xi had a smile on his face, then he scratched his ears nonchalantly, and said triumphantly: "This is not a bad word, it is because of the people who follow me all the time. People are very familiar with my abilities, and know that I may survive overnight with my temper, so they have doubts, which is not surprising..."
Before he finished speaking, he felt a kick on his knee, and then Zuo Yanting said angrily: "Sure enough, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. It's something." After the words fell, he had already taken several steps forward angrily.
"There's nothing to be angry about. Yanting is now considered the owner of the palace. If you think their words are inappropriate, you can of course discipline them."
Long Xi took advantage of the verbal advantage, so he couldn't relax, he chased after him salivating, and put his arms around Zuo Yanting's waist: "Look, you don't know the way, did you go astray? The fish pond is on which side."
"I... I didn't go astray, I was worried that when I got to the fish pond, I couldn't help kicking you, an unscrupulous flower king, into it, and it wouldn't be worthwhile to implicate my parents and relatives in jail. " Zuo Yanting glanced at Long Xi viciously, but saw him looking at him with a smile in his eyes, his always deep eyes were full of tenderness.
He couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then realized that he had made another mistake.It's really frustrating, no matter how much I said in my heart that I can't believe this guy's harmless appearance, can't speak out, and commit disrespect, but when my temper comes up, I still can't control my mouth.
The most hateful thing is that those servants don't take themselves seriously at all. At this time, they discussed why Long Xi would say that he is also the master of the palace. In the end, they all came to the unanimous conclusion that Zuo Yanting was the mistress of the palace. existing.He only hated him so much that his teeth itch, wishing to drive out those bastards who spoke freely.
Long Xi, however, seemed to be quite satisfied with the servants' conclusions.Take Zuo Yanting to the fish pond to watch the fish for a while.There are also a few lotus in that pond, but they are not in full bloom yet. The koi and other kinds of goldfish are playing among the lotus leaves. Zuo Yanting sprinkled some fish food into the pond, which attracts them to come up. The scene is very interesting. .
Seeing that his lover was having fun, Long Xi felt very relieved, the anger caused by Zuo Yanting's refusal to come back before had disappeared without a trace.Suddenly, a few servant girls came over with long things in their hands, blessed him in front of him, and said, "My lord, this is a fishing rod just given by the palace. It is said that it came from Mindu Kingdom. It caught a big fish weighing hundreds of catties.”
Long Xi smiled and said: "Father really knows how to send things. I was thinking about going fishing with Yanting by the lake." While talking, he took the fishing rod and handed one to Zuo Yanting, and said with a smile: " What's so strange? It's not like our country doesn't have poles that can catch big fish, but it's just a matter of trouble, um, this material is rare, and it's actually made of purple bamboo."
"That's right, this one is a sandalwood stick." The maids also laughed.But Zuo Yanting said softly: "That kind of small country, what else can they pay tribute to? Let's look at ordinary things, and they are considered good. Otherwise, with the prestige of our country, how dare they fool us?" .”
Long Xi nodded and said: "Yanting is right. It is said that all nations are coming to court, but to put it bluntly, many small countries donate gifts that are not eye-catching, but there are some novelties among them. Father is sympathetic to their small countries. In what year did the gifts they received not make them envious? Therefore, over the years, dozens of countries have added tributes, not because they sincerely surrendered, but because of those gifts.”
He amused Zuo Yanting with one sentence, nodded and said: "That's all, compared with them, our country is rich and powerful, so a small reward is nothing." While talking, Long Xi couldn't wait, pulled Zuo Yanting came to the lake.
After a while, he saw several boatmen approaching with a big boat, and he took Zuo Yanting's hand to board the boat. Seeing the surprise in his lover's eyes, he couldn't help laughing, "What's the matter? What novelty did you see again?" Something? Could it be that you haven’t seen a ship before?”
Zuo Yanting lowered his eyes in embarrassment, and said, "Of course I have seen a boat before, but I have never seen such a big boat. You are in the mansion all day long, what do you do with such a big boat? You don't want to go to sea?"
Long Xi laughed and said: "This boat is called big? You really know how to joke, Yanting. When we enter the palace some other day, I will let you sit on the boat in the Longevity Sea of the Royal Garden. In the mansion, it’s just a few better ones that are prepared so-so. Doesn’t it mean that this fishing rod can catch big fish? If we catch a big fish weighing several hundred catties, if the boat is too small, we will be caught by the fish. It was overturned."
Zuo Yanting couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, and said softly: "Do you think I'm a fool? If there are hundreds of catties of big fish, they are in the sea. Although your lake is big now, if there are dozens of catties of fish It’s amazing, and I’m still thinking about hundreds of catties of fish.”
Long Xi was at a loss for words for a while, but he was not willing to lose face in front of Zuo Yanting, so when he rolled his eyes, he leaned into his ear and whispered, "I don't want to say if there are any fish, but actually I want this big boat. For this purpose, Yanting, do you know how spacious and comfortable the cabin is? Why don’t we try to do it there later? The boat is shaking with sparkling light, and it must be very interesting when it’s cloudy and rainy.”
Zuo Yanting didn't realize what he was talking about until he said the last sentence.He couldn't help but grit his teeth and stare angrily, if he wasn't still concerned about the other party's identity, he would have kicked him down long ago.In a fit of anger, he sat on the bow of the boat and ignored him, only talking to the boatman.
Long Xi shrugged in the back, just now he purposely humiliated Zuo Yanting in order to save face, but now that he thinks about it seriously, he feels that this idea he came up on the spur of the moment is really good, if it can really be done when the boat is rocking Going to the clouds and rain with your sweetheart, it is best to have some tricks to play, that is really a great joy in life.Therefore, it was secretly planned and agreed, and secretly said that he must find a time to try it out.
Zuo Yanting didn't know about the dirty thoughts in Long Xi's heart, the boat had rowed to the middle of the lake in a short time, the fisherman said with a silly smile: "My lord, the water here is the deepest, there are many and big fish, let's hook here. "
Long Xi nodded, and came to Zuo Yanting to sit down. Immediately, a few servants came over and put down a big wooden bucket beside them. The bucket was half filled with water. There was also a special person for tying bait to the hook. , Zuo Yanting just threw the fishing line into the water, and then quietly waited for the fish to take the bait.
"Yanting, why don't we make a bet, whoever catches the most fish will treat the other party to a meal at Xiangmanlou, how about that?" Long Xi put the hook, and refused to sit idle, changing his tricks Chat with Zuo Yanting.
"Calm down, what is the identity of the prince? Are you still thinking about the meal at Xiangmanlou? I can't afford the money. Don't come over, will you be responsible for scaring my fish away?"
The two just bickered and looked at the water.The servants behind them stared straight at each other, secretly thinking that it was a wonder in the world, when did the prince be so tolerant to others, tsk tsk, he still smiled when someone said it.Tsk tsk, love, indeed no kind of person can escape.
The leisurely time in the afternoon passed in a blink of an eye, and when the sun went down, both of them had a harvest. Zuo Yanting caught a few carp and mandarin fish that were one foot long.Long Xi was even more amazing, the fishhook tied with a piece of meat really caught three big fish weighing [-] to [-] catties, they couldn't fit in the bucket, and they flopped on the boat.
Zuo Yanting was kindhearted, when he saw the big fish rolling on the deck, he couldn't bear it, and sighed: "Why bother, I don't know how many years it took to grow to such a big size, my lord, it's not like we don't have fish to eat, you and I have enough fish in this bucket, why bother to take more lives?"
Long Xi knew that Zuo Yanting believed in Buddhism, and he often went to Baiyun Temple to offer incense on weekdays.Yin smiled and said: "In this case, I will accumulate some merit for you. Let go of all these fish, and only keep the biggest one. Not only will we eat it, but we will also feed some to our father, queen, mother and concubine. I will not let them down." Give me these two fishing rods. All living beings are equal, and the big fish is like an old man. Anyway, it has lived long enough, and its life is exchanged for the life of these small fish. This business is sure to make a profit.”
As he spoke, he poured all the fish in the bucket into the lake.Zuo Yanting didn't expect that he could really do this, especially when he heard him say to accumulate some virtue for himself, for some reason, his heart trembled.After hearing this, he couldn't help laughing, shook his head and said, "What's the point of making a profit without losing money? Are you a businessman? You're not afraid of lowering your status."
Long Xi seemed very happy, and let the servants carry the fish behind, he and Zuo Yanting walked in front, only to hear the people behind talking again.But this time, he didn't like to hear it.What does it mean that I am not willing to let go of a shrimp I catch on weekdays, and I have to cook it to eat, but now there are so many fish that I can let go?Well, even if Yan Ting might be a little moved when he heard this, but as for being so stingy as he said?Not even a single shrimp is spared, cut!
As he was thinking about it, he couldn't help turning his head and glaring at the servants who were getting more and more excited, which meant to make them restrain themselves.Looking back, I saw Zuo Yanting looking at him with a smile on his face, Long Xi didn't know what happened, his face, which was always thicker than the city wall, turned red, but he wanted to pretend to be a tough guy, cough He said twice: "Look... what are you looking at? What's so funny?"
"Now do you think that you servants should be disciplined?" Zuo Yanting chuckled, and said only one sentence, and didn't say any more.Walking briskly forward, compared to the feeling of wanting to die when he first entered the mansion, he was much more relaxed at this time.
"Happy, I made you happy. Hmph, let's see how I will eat you up in bed tonight." Long Xi felt ashamed, so he could only grit his teeth and talk to himself behind Zuo Yanting, thinking that he would be able to be with him tonight. This yearning person turned upside down again, and couldn't help but feel happy again, and even hummed a little song in his mouth.
The red candles are shining brightly, and the spring scenery in the light gauze tent is rich, and the groans of ecstasy have continued since the end of the Xu Dynasty until now, and have not stopped.
The two servant girls were outside, occasionally leaning over to take a look at the inner room.The two were doing needlework together, chatting occasionally.
"Didn't I say, our lord doesn't know how to take pity on Mr. Zuo, just think that everyone is as strong as him and has skills? Tsk tsk, I don't know if Mr. Zuo can survive tonight." A man called Qiu Ping's maid stopped her needlework and sighed.
They were in the outermost room, and they closed several doors, but they couldn't hear anything.You can only peep through the door lattice to see if the bed curtain in the inner room is lifted, so as to judge whether the prince needs someone to serve him or not.
Another maid named Jinniang smiled and said, "What kind of heart are you talking about? Don't you know the severity? But when you meet this Mr. Zuo, you know it by taste. Who knows that the other party has been away for a few days and held him back?" It’s only been a while, and at this time, the love is strong. We shouldn’t say such things as reasoning, you’d better do your needlework honestly.”
"You mean, our lord really thinks that Mr. Zuo is not good?" Qiuping picked up the needle and thread, but her mouth didn't stop: "The emperor and the empress can't let him do this nonsense."
"How can we be sure about the things in this world? According to me, there is nothing wrong with the emperor, but our empress is strong, so we may not be willing to do so. But we are servants, so let's talk less about the master, let alone the empress is from the palace. Concubine, it is not wrong for us to be more cautious."
"What are you afraid of? No one will listen to you. At this time, the prince is doing this kind of thing. I'm afraid even the shadow guards are far away." Qiu Ping giggled, but she stopped talking.
Jinniang looked up and looked inside again, sighed softly, then lowered her head and continued to embroider.
The incense was burning, and after an unknown amount of time, Qiuping couldn't help but fell asleep lying on the table.Jinniang was also in a daze when she heard footsteps and the door opened.
Jin Niang quickly stood up, only glanced at it, then knelt down, and said softly: "My lord, the servants are here to serve you, what orders does your lord have?"
Long Xi glanced at her, smiled and said, "It's late at night, so it's hard for you. Anyway, you go out and call up two servants, order them to bring in a bucket of hot water, and be quicker with your hands and feet."
Jinniang quickly agreed.Here Qiuping also woke up, quickly took out the snacks and tea that had been put in the food box before, and was about to send them in, when Long Xi stopped him, and heard him whisper: "Give it to me, Yanting now I'm just shy, if I know there are people outside, maybe I can get up and beat me."
This is a joke, but there is a strong sense of pampering in it.Qiuping is also Linglong's heart, how can she not understand it.Knowing that the position of Zuo Yanting in the palace will be stable in the future.
Zuo Yanting was lazily lying on the bed.Long Xi was still so crazy tonight, he beat him up several times, during which time he nearly passed out several times, but finally he still had a conscience, and he didn't tyrannize to the end, so he kept his sanity.However, for such a shameful thing, he really felt that it would be better to pass out.
Too much sweat, mixed with the dirty things on his body, made Zuo Yanting very uncomfortable.I was also hungry, and suddenly I saw Long Xi brought some snacks from outside, picked a piece and put it into his mouth, and said: "I told them, let the boy bring a bucket of hot water. It's late at night, We don't have to go to the hot spring pool, so as not to catch a cold."
Zuo Yanting had no choice but to agree, and only hoped that the hot water would be delivered quickly.Fortunately, he didn't make him wait any longer. Soon, two young men came over with a big wooden bucket and put it on the ground outside. Then Qiuping directed the young men to move the eight screens, and everyone retreated quietly. Close the door.
Only then did Long Xi carry Zuo Yanting out of the bed, put him in the big wooden barrel, and help him scrub his body.She smiled and asked him, "How about my lady? Is it comfortable for me to serve you?"
Zuo Yanting snorted, turned his head and didn't answer.However, the next moment, the red cherry on his chest was pinched, he turned his head and glared at Long Xi angrily, and whispered: "Don't call me a lady, who wants such a sissy name?"
"It's all up to you." Long Xi felt comfortable physically and mentally at this time, but Zuo Yanting was half-tired, so naturally he wanted to comfort his lover.
Unexpectedly, Zuo Yanting sneered, and said coldly: "Everything depends on me? This is a high-sounding statement, but you are a prince, and a promise is worth hundreds of gold even if it is not worth a thousand gold. Don't make it easily. Be careful not to renege on your promise in the future."
"Look at what you said. This king has always been a promise. Yanting, tell me, do I ever break a promise in front of you? But you, hmph, clearly said that you would come back after staying for a few days, but you really waited for this king to send you back." People call you, but push you back and forth."
What Zuo Yanting was waiting for was his words, immediately turned around, and said angrily: "Why send someone, it is clear that the person has been following me to deliver a message for you. Send someone. Wang Ye, if you are really right I’m good, I’ll do whatever you want, so don’t let that person follow me, am I a livestock? Or your slave? So you’re afraid that I’ll escape?”
Long Xi took a meaningful look at Zuo Yanting, scooped up a handful of water and sprinkled it on his shiny black hair, and said slowly, "Why are you talking about this all of a sudden? Do you have any plans in mind?"
Zuo Yanting's heart tightened, but he refused to show any abnormality on his face, and said bitterly: "Plan? I have a plan, but can you let me realize it? Prince, don't overestimate me, I just You are a grassroots, even if you want to escape, where can you escape? If you flee to the ends of the earth, can you still escape your influence? Not to mention my relatives and clansmen, how can I abandon them?"
Long Xi smiled evilly, and walked through the passage: "That's true. You will run away with your family, and this king is not afraid. I can always catch up with you. As the saying goes, there is no king in the world."
Zuo Yanting was secretly happy in his heart, but his face revealed a look of extreme hatred. He gritted his teeth and said, "Since this is the case, what are you afraid of? You still sent people to follow me. You know what kind of person I am. If you are sincere to me , so don’t stare at me so urgently as soon as possible, otherwise I... I won’t like you in my life.”
"Could it be that if I get rid of those who watch you, is it possible that Yanting will still like me in this life?" Who is Long Xi, how could he not understand the truth of beating a snake with a stick.
Zuo Yanting lowered his head, bit his lips, tried hard for a long time, but still couldn't say anything against his will, so he murmured: "I... I don't know, but... But as time goes on, if you don't get tired of me , always occupying me like this, you... you can treat me better, and... who can explain the consequences clearly?"
He was about to vomit to death in his heart, so he raised his head, looked at Long Xi bitterly and said, "But if you disrespect me from the beginning, you...you treat me like a beast slave, this life...for the rest of your life In this life, I... How could I still have feelings for you..."
He suddenly stopped talking, smiled bitterly, and murmured: "Yeah, I'm so stupid, you are a majestic prince. How can you treat anyone sincerely? Aren't those who accompany you on the bed are all your sex slaves?" How could I be an exception? It’s just that everyone else is trying to be your sex slave, but I’m just unwilling, I... I’m so stupid, my lord, just pretend I didn’t say anything..."
When Zuo Yanting said this, countless sadness really welled up in his heart, a tear slipped down the corner of his eye, and he quickly wiped it away.This action also completely shattered Long Xi's defense.
Holding Zuo Yanting in his arms distressedly, he said softly: "Yanting, don't be like this, is it okay if I don't send people to follow you? I am sincere to you. I really like you, every moment I want to see you, and the reason why I went too far last time was because I couldn't see you, so I became irritable."
Hearing what he said, Zuo Yanting immediately felt a surge of surprise in his heart, but he knew that he couldn't show any flaws at this time, so he quickly suppressed the smile on his lips, suppressed the discomfort in his heart that was about to vomit, and leaned his head against the On Long Xi's chest, he whispered: "Is what you said true? Are you willing... Are you willing to treat me like an ordinary person? You won't send someone to follow me?"
"I am the prince, so I will do what I say. It's just that I sent someone to follow you, not just to follow you. You are a scholar, and you have no strength to restrain a chicken. I am afraid that you will be kidnapped or hurt by bad guys, so I will send someone. The shadow guards are protecting you in secret." Long Xi explained softly, his words made Zuo Yanting's heart beat hard.
"I...I don't need your protection, hum...you...don't think that I will believe you if you say this." Zuo Yanting actually knew that what Long Xi said was true, but at this time he had to distort the facts.He couldn't let his heart go, whether it was moved or cowardly, it would affect his escape plan.He doesn't want to ruin his life's happiness because of a momentary mood.
"I know you won't believe it." Long Xi smiled faintly: "Well, since you don't like it, I will remove the shadow guard. But Yanting, you have to promise me, don't change your mind. Don't even think about it. You can't escape without a shadow guard. Even if you escape, you can't escape from my palm."
While talking, Long Xi stretched out his hand to hold Zuo Yanting's face, and kissed the bright red lips lightly: "You know that I will be very irritable at certain times, and I don't want to be angry in the future. One day, I will punish you inhumanely."
His words made Zuo Yanting's body shudder, desperately suppressing the fear in his mind, he stubbornly looked into Long Xi's eyes: "Don't worry, I will never give you this chance."
Long Xi smiled, put down his hands, picked up the bath towel to wipe his body again, and said softly, "That's good. Yanting, don't always go back in the future, just stay by my side, okay? I like you, you don't know , A while ago, every time I went to the morning court, I was very happy just thinking that I could come back to see you. After you came home, I couldn’t cheer up every day, and my brothers made fun of me for it.”
Zuo Yanting thought that you deserved it, you asked for it.But he pretended to hesitate and said: "But...but my parents are in the capital, how do you want me to live in the palace? I...I can still say that I am in a bad mood right now, so I should just relax at a friend's house. But what about the future? What reason will I find to live with you in the future?"
Long Xi frowned, and said "En", thinking that this is indeed a troublesome matter.But Zuo Yanting is going to make a decision, and this cannot be changed.Yin Xie smiled and said, "Since that's the case, why not tell them about our relationship."
"You dare." Zuo Yanting sat up abruptly, glaring at Long Xi angrily, "I have only one son in our family, and my parents still count on me to continue the family line. Now you want to tell them about our relationship. Long Xi , even if you are a prince, my parents will not be happy, do you understand? What's more, I have grandparents, they will be pissed off by you."
"Then what should I do? Anyway, I don't care, you must stay by my side, you must not go home more than five times a year, and you must not live there for more than three days each time." Long Xi simply began to cheat, leaning Looking at Zuo Yanting with narrowed eyes: "Either you have to find a way. Or explain our relationship. In short, it's up to you."
The troubles that had troubled Zuo Yanting for many days were resolved in this way.This did make him overjoyed, but no traces could be revealed on the surface.I quietly planned it in my heart.He sat down again, and said in a low voice: "Okay, I... I will find a way, no matter what, you are not allowed to intervene, in short... In short, you have to be patient for a while, I will definitely go home a few more times during this period, but in the future , I... I will definitely think of a way to get the best of both worlds."
"Okay, I'll listen to you, let me see how Qinqin Yanting uses this method." Long Xi resumed his usual banter, turned to Zuo Yanting's face and kissed it hard, He said softly: "I love the stupid Yanting, and I also love the smart Yanting. Tsk tsk, if I knew I would fall into your hands, I shouldn't have entered that Shuxiangzhai in the first place."
"I'm also thinking, if you didn't enter Shuxiangzhai at that time, and we didn't become friends, it would be great." Zuo Yanting muttered to himself, and his thoughts flew back to the moment when we first met.
The next moment, there was a pain in his shoulder, and when he looked up, Long Xi's face was full of anger, and he shouted viciously: "I was just joking, I never regret it, I can only be lucky. So Yanting you Don't regret it, don't regret knowing me, understand?"
"Understood." Zuo Yanting responded perfunctorily.But he smiled helplessly in his heart: "Okay, the water is a little cold, and I have washed almost well. Let's go to sleep. I think the bones and frames are falling apart."
Long Xi smiled, got up and picked up the big square scarf from the screen, but saw Zuo Yanting stood up, stretched out his hand and said: "Let me do it myself, you are a prince, how dare I let you serve me..."
Before he finished speaking, Long Xi patted his hand lightly, and he raised his eyebrows and smiled and said, "This is my pleasure, you don't want to take it away." After speaking, he couldn't help but wiped his body dry, and then hugged him by the waist. beside the bed.
Seeing that the bedding had been changed, Zuo Yanting couldn't help but smiled wryly: "Your maidservants are really light-footed. When did they come in? Why don't I know?"
Long Xi put him on the bed, then lay down himself, pulled the thin quilt under his feet to cover the two of them, Fang smiled and said: "If they don't even have this ability, are they still worthy of being my maids? You know You're shy, so naturally I can't let you know."
"Am I the only one who is shy? That's right, your skin is thicker than a city wall. How could I expect you to be shy." Zuo Yanting snorted, which made Long Xi laugh. Shame, but also a little smug.Zuo Yanting turned around angrily and ignored him, but he soon turned around and hugged him in his arms.
But when they quieted down, the people behind couldn't help whispering. Although Zuo Yanting's hearing was not as good as Long Xi's, those whispers became louder and louder, blowing into the air with the breeze. into his ears.
"What's the matter? This is the end of the matter? Impossible, how can our prince be willing to end the battle so quickly?"
"What kind of battle? It's not even enough to take off your clothes. How can it end? Haven't you seen it yet? The prince is sympathetic to Mr. Zuo. He probably doesn't want to do it, so he won't do it."
"Isn't it nonsense? Our prince has such a good intention? When will he be able to think of this for others?"
"Hey..." Zuo Yanting couldn't listen any longer. Even a scholar like himself, who has been influenced by Confucius and Mencius, could understand what those people were talking about. The servant of the tongue, why did he lose his prestige, and he didn't say punishment.
"What are you doing?" Long Xi turned around and said, "But I'm tired from walking? Then I'll carry you." After saying that, he made a real move, as if he wanted to carry Zuo Yanting on his back.
Zuo Yanting was so frightened that he quickly shook his hands, his face flushed, and he whispered: "I... whoever uses your back, these few steps will not trouble me, I... I want to ask you, you... ...Are you deaf? Those...those servants are speaking ill of you."
"Bad talk? Really? I didn't hear it." Long Xi tilted his head and looked at Zuo Yanting solemnly: "Where is it? What did you hear?"
"You...you really didn't hear?" Zuo Yanting's eyes widened, and he looked at Long Xi who was full of sternness in disbelief, then looked back, stammering: "Just...just now they said you ...How did you just...just..." The words of ending the battle were really beyond words, Zuo Yanting lowered his eyes, and thought to himself, forget it, his servants say bad things about him, what do I care .
"Oh, you said that." Unexpectedly, Long Xi had a smile on his face, then he scratched his ears nonchalantly, and said triumphantly: "This is not a bad word, it is because of the people who follow me all the time. People are very familiar with my abilities, and know that I may survive overnight with my temper, so they have doubts, which is not surprising..."
Before he finished speaking, he felt a kick on his knee, and then Zuo Yanting said angrily: "Sure enough, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. It's something." After the words fell, he had already taken several steps forward angrily.
"There's nothing to be angry about. Yanting is now considered the owner of the palace. If you think their words are inappropriate, you can of course discipline them."
Long Xi took advantage of the verbal advantage, so he couldn't relax, he chased after him salivating, and put his arms around Zuo Yanting's waist: "Look, you don't know the way, did you go astray? The fish pond is on which side."
"I... I didn't go astray, I was worried that when I got to the fish pond, I couldn't help kicking you, an unscrupulous flower king, into it, and it wouldn't be worthwhile to implicate my parents and relatives in jail. " Zuo Yanting glanced at Long Xi viciously, but saw him looking at him with a smile in his eyes, his always deep eyes were full of tenderness.
He couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then realized that he had made another mistake.It's really frustrating, no matter how much I said in my heart that I can't believe this guy's harmless appearance, can't speak out, and commit disrespect, but when my temper comes up, I still can't control my mouth.
The most hateful thing is that those servants don't take themselves seriously at all. At this time, they discussed why Long Xi would say that he is also the master of the palace. In the end, they all came to the unanimous conclusion that Zuo Yanting was the mistress of the palace. existing.He only hated him so much that his teeth itch, wishing to drive out those bastards who spoke freely.
Long Xi, however, seemed to be quite satisfied with the servants' conclusions.Take Zuo Yanting to the fish pond to watch the fish for a while.There are also a few lotus in that pond, but they are not in full bloom yet. The koi and other kinds of goldfish are playing among the lotus leaves. Zuo Yanting sprinkled some fish food into the pond, which attracts them to come up. The scene is very interesting. .
Seeing that his lover was having fun, Long Xi felt very relieved, the anger caused by Zuo Yanting's refusal to come back before had disappeared without a trace.Suddenly, a few servant girls came over with long things in their hands, blessed him in front of him, and said, "My lord, this is a fishing rod just given by the palace. It is said that it came from Mindu Kingdom. It caught a big fish weighing hundreds of catties.”
Long Xi smiled and said: "Father really knows how to send things. I was thinking about going fishing with Yanting by the lake." While talking, he took the fishing rod and handed one to Zuo Yanting, and said with a smile: " What's so strange? It's not like our country doesn't have poles that can catch big fish, but it's just a matter of trouble, um, this material is rare, and it's actually made of purple bamboo."
"That's right, this one is a sandalwood stick." The maids also laughed.But Zuo Yanting said softly: "That kind of small country, what else can they pay tribute to? Let's look at ordinary things, and they are considered good. Otherwise, with the prestige of our country, how dare they fool us?" .”
Long Xi nodded and said: "Yanting is right. It is said that all nations are coming to court, but to put it bluntly, many small countries donate gifts that are not eye-catching, but there are some novelties among them. Father is sympathetic to their small countries. In what year did the gifts they received not make them envious? Therefore, over the years, dozens of countries have added tributes, not because they sincerely surrendered, but because of those gifts.”
He amused Zuo Yanting with one sentence, nodded and said: "That's all, compared with them, our country is rich and powerful, so a small reward is nothing." While talking, Long Xi couldn't wait, pulled Zuo Yanting came to the lake.
After a while, he saw several boatmen approaching with a big boat, and he took Zuo Yanting's hand to board the boat. Seeing the surprise in his lover's eyes, he couldn't help laughing, "What's the matter? What novelty did you see again?" Something? Could it be that you haven’t seen a ship before?”
Zuo Yanting lowered his eyes in embarrassment, and said, "Of course I have seen a boat before, but I have never seen such a big boat. You are in the mansion all day long, what do you do with such a big boat? You don't want to go to sea?"
Long Xi laughed and said: "This boat is called big? You really know how to joke, Yanting. When we enter the palace some other day, I will let you sit on the boat in the Longevity Sea of the Royal Garden. In the mansion, it’s just a few better ones that are prepared so-so. Doesn’t it mean that this fishing rod can catch big fish? If we catch a big fish weighing several hundred catties, if the boat is too small, we will be caught by the fish. It was overturned."
Zuo Yanting couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, and said softly: "Do you think I'm a fool? If there are hundreds of catties of big fish, they are in the sea. Although your lake is big now, if there are dozens of catties of fish It’s amazing, and I’m still thinking about hundreds of catties of fish.”
Long Xi was at a loss for words for a while, but he was not willing to lose face in front of Zuo Yanting, so when he rolled his eyes, he leaned into his ear and whispered, "I don't want to say if there are any fish, but actually I want this big boat. For this purpose, Yanting, do you know how spacious and comfortable the cabin is? Why don’t we try to do it there later? The boat is shaking with sparkling light, and it must be very interesting when it’s cloudy and rainy.”
Zuo Yanting didn't realize what he was talking about until he said the last sentence.He couldn't help but grit his teeth and stare angrily, if he wasn't still concerned about the other party's identity, he would have kicked him down long ago.In a fit of anger, he sat on the bow of the boat and ignored him, only talking to the boatman.
Long Xi shrugged in the back, just now he purposely humiliated Zuo Yanting in order to save face, but now that he thinks about it seriously, he feels that this idea he came up on the spur of the moment is really good, if it can really be done when the boat is rocking Going to the clouds and rain with your sweetheart, it is best to have some tricks to play, that is really a great joy in life.Therefore, it was secretly planned and agreed, and secretly said that he must find a time to try it out.
Zuo Yanting didn't know about the dirty thoughts in Long Xi's heart, the boat had rowed to the middle of the lake in a short time, the fisherman said with a silly smile: "My lord, the water here is the deepest, there are many and big fish, let's hook here. "
Long Xi nodded, and came to Zuo Yanting to sit down. Immediately, a few servants came over and put down a big wooden bucket beside them. The bucket was half filled with water. There was also a special person for tying bait to the hook. , Zuo Yanting just threw the fishing line into the water, and then quietly waited for the fish to take the bait.
"Yanting, why don't we make a bet, whoever catches the most fish will treat the other party to a meal at Xiangmanlou, how about that?" Long Xi put the hook, and refused to sit idle, changing his tricks Chat with Zuo Yanting.
"Calm down, what is the identity of the prince? Are you still thinking about the meal at Xiangmanlou? I can't afford the money. Don't come over, will you be responsible for scaring my fish away?"
The two just bickered and looked at the water.The servants behind them stared straight at each other, secretly thinking that it was a wonder in the world, when did the prince be so tolerant to others, tsk tsk, he still smiled when someone said it.Tsk tsk, love, indeed no kind of person can escape.
The leisurely time in the afternoon passed in a blink of an eye, and when the sun went down, both of them had a harvest. Zuo Yanting caught a few carp and mandarin fish that were one foot long.Long Xi was even more amazing, the fishhook tied with a piece of meat really caught three big fish weighing [-] to [-] catties, they couldn't fit in the bucket, and they flopped on the boat.
Zuo Yanting was kindhearted, when he saw the big fish rolling on the deck, he couldn't bear it, and sighed: "Why bother, I don't know how many years it took to grow to such a big size, my lord, it's not like we don't have fish to eat, you and I have enough fish in this bucket, why bother to take more lives?"
Long Xi knew that Zuo Yanting believed in Buddhism, and he often went to Baiyun Temple to offer incense on weekdays.Yin smiled and said: "In this case, I will accumulate some merit for you. Let go of all these fish, and only keep the biggest one. Not only will we eat it, but we will also feed some to our father, queen, mother and concubine. I will not let them down." Give me these two fishing rods. All living beings are equal, and the big fish is like an old man. Anyway, it has lived long enough, and its life is exchanged for the life of these small fish. This business is sure to make a profit.”
As he spoke, he poured all the fish in the bucket into the lake.Zuo Yanting didn't expect that he could really do this, especially when he heard him say to accumulate some virtue for himself, for some reason, his heart trembled.After hearing this, he couldn't help laughing, shook his head and said, "What's the point of making a profit without losing money? Are you a businessman? You're not afraid of lowering your status."
Long Xi seemed very happy, and let the servants carry the fish behind, he and Zuo Yanting walked in front, only to hear the people behind talking again.But this time, he didn't like to hear it.What does it mean that I am not willing to let go of a shrimp I catch on weekdays, and I have to cook it to eat, but now there are so many fish that I can let go?Well, even if Yan Ting might be a little moved when he heard this, but as for being so stingy as he said?Not even a single shrimp is spared, cut!
As he was thinking about it, he couldn't help turning his head and glaring at the servants who were getting more and more excited, which meant to make them restrain themselves.Looking back, I saw Zuo Yanting looking at him with a smile on his face, Long Xi didn't know what happened, his face, which was always thicker than the city wall, turned red, but he wanted to pretend to be a tough guy, cough He said twice: "Look... what are you looking at? What's so funny?"
"Now do you think that you servants should be disciplined?" Zuo Yanting chuckled, and said only one sentence, and didn't say any more.Walking briskly forward, compared to the feeling of wanting to die when he first entered the mansion, he was much more relaxed at this time.
"Happy, I made you happy. Hmph, let's see how I will eat you up in bed tonight." Long Xi felt ashamed, so he could only grit his teeth and talk to himself behind Zuo Yanting, thinking that he would be able to be with him tonight. This yearning person turned upside down again, and couldn't help but feel happy again, and even hummed a little song in his mouth.
The red candles are shining brightly, and the spring scenery in the light gauze tent is rich, and the groans of ecstasy have continued since the end of the Xu Dynasty until now, and have not stopped.
The two servant girls were outside, occasionally leaning over to take a look at the inner room.The two were doing needlework together, chatting occasionally.
"Didn't I say, our lord doesn't know how to take pity on Mr. Zuo, just think that everyone is as strong as him and has skills? Tsk tsk, I don't know if Mr. Zuo can survive tonight." A man called Qiu Ping's maid stopped her needlework and sighed.
They were in the outermost room, and they closed several doors, but they couldn't hear anything.You can only peep through the door lattice to see if the bed curtain in the inner room is lifted, so as to judge whether the prince needs someone to serve him or not.
Another maid named Jinniang smiled and said, "What kind of heart are you talking about? Don't you know the severity? But when you meet this Mr. Zuo, you know it by taste. Who knows that the other party has been away for a few days and held him back?" It’s only been a while, and at this time, the love is strong. We shouldn’t say such things as reasoning, you’d better do your needlework honestly.”
"You mean, our lord really thinks that Mr. Zuo is not good?" Qiuping picked up the needle and thread, but her mouth didn't stop: "The emperor and the empress can't let him do this nonsense."
"How can we be sure about the things in this world? According to me, there is nothing wrong with the emperor, but our empress is strong, so we may not be willing to do so. But we are servants, so let's talk less about the master, let alone the empress is from the palace. Concubine, it is not wrong for us to be more cautious."
"What are you afraid of? No one will listen to you. At this time, the prince is doing this kind of thing. I'm afraid even the shadow guards are far away." Qiu Ping giggled, but she stopped talking.
Jinniang looked up and looked inside again, sighed softly, then lowered her head and continued to embroider.
The incense was burning, and after an unknown amount of time, Qiuping couldn't help but fell asleep lying on the table.Jinniang was also in a daze when she heard footsteps and the door opened.
Jin Niang quickly stood up, only glanced at it, then knelt down, and said softly: "My lord, the servants are here to serve you, what orders does your lord have?"
Long Xi glanced at her, smiled and said, "It's late at night, so it's hard for you. Anyway, you go out and call up two servants, order them to bring in a bucket of hot water, and be quicker with your hands and feet."
Jinniang quickly agreed.Here Qiuping also woke up, quickly took out the snacks and tea that had been put in the food box before, and was about to send them in, when Long Xi stopped him, and heard him whisper: "Give it to me, Yanting now I'm just shy, if I know there are people outside, maybe I can get up and beat me."
This is a joke, but there is a strong sense of pampering in it.Qiuping is also Linglong's heart, how can she not understand it.Knowing that the position of Zuo Yanting in the palace will be stable in the future.
Zuo Yanting was lazily lying on the bed.Long Xi was still so crazy tonight, he beat him up several times, during which time he nearly passed out several times, but finally he still had a conscience, and he didn't tyrannize to the end, so he kept his sanity.However, for such a shameful thing, he really felt that it would be better to pass out.
Too much sweat, mixed with the dirty things on his body, made Zuo Yanting very uncomfortable.I was also hungry, and suddenly I saw Long Xi brought some snacks from outside, picked a piece and put it into his mouth, and said: "I told them, let the boy bring a bucket of hot water. It's late at night, We don't have to go to the hot spring pool, so as not to catch a cold."
Zuo Yanting had no choice but to agree, and only hoped that the hot water would be delivered quickly.Fortunately, he didn't make him wait any longer. Soon, two young men came over with a big wooden bucket and put it on the ground outside. Then Qiuping directed the young men to move the eight screens, and everyone retreated quietly. Close the door.
Only then did Long Xi carry Zuo Yanting out of the bed, put him in the big wooden barrel, and help him scrub his body.She smiled and asked him, "How about my lady? Is it comfortable for me to serve you?"
Zuo Yanting snorted, turned his head and didn't answer.However, the next moment, the red cherry on his chest was pinched, he turned his head and glared at Long Xi angrily, and whispered: "Don't call me a lady, who wants such a sissy name?"
"It's all up to you." Long Xi felt comfortable physically and mentally at this time, but Zuo Yanting was half-tired, so naturally he wanted to comfort his lover.
Unexpectedly, Zuo Yanting sneered, and said coldly: "Everything depends on me? This is a high-sounding statement, but you are a prince, and a promise is worth hundreds of gold even if it is not worth a thousand gold. Don't make it easily. Be careful not to renege on your promise in the future."
"Look at what you said. This king has always been a promise. Yanting, tell me, do I ever break a promise in front of you? But you, hmph, clearly said that you would come back after staying for a few days, but you really waited for this king to send you back." People call you, but push you back and forth."
What Zuo Yanting was waiting for was his words, immediately turned around, and said angrily: "Why send someone, it is clear that the person has been following me to deliver a message for you. Send someone. Wang Ye, if you are really right I’m good, I’ll do whatever you want, so don’t let that person follow me, am I a livestock? Or your slave? So you’re afraid that I’ll escape?”
Long Xi took a meaningful look at Zuo Yanting, scooped up a handful of water and sprinkled it on his shiny black hair, and said slowly, "Why are you talking about this all of a sudden? Do you have any plans in mind?"
Zuo Yanting's heart tightened, but he refused to show any abnormality on his face, and said bitterly: "Plan? I have a plan, but can you let me realize it? Prince, don't overestimate me, I just You are a grassroots, even if you want to escape, where can you escape? If you flee to the ends of the earth, can you still escape your influence? Not to mention my relatives and clansmen, how can I abandon them?"
Long Xi smiled evilly, and walked through the passage: "That's true. You will run away with your family, and this king is not afraid. I can always catch up with you. As the saying goes, there is no king in the world."
Zuo Yanting was secretly happy in his heart, but his face revealed a look of extreme hatred. He gritted his teeth and said, "Since this is the case, what are you afraid of? You still sent people to follow me. You know what kind of person I am. If you are sincere to me , so don’t stare at me so urgently as soon as possible, otherwise I... I won’t like you in my life.”
"Could it be that if I get rid of those who watch you, is it possible that Yanting will still like me in this life?" Who is Long Xi, how could he not understand the truth of beating a snake with a stick.
Zuo Yanting lowered his head, bit his lips, tried hard for a long time, but still couldn't say anything against his will, so he murmured: "I... I don't know, but... But as time goes on, if you don't get tired of me , always occupying me like this, you... you can treat me better, and... who can explain the consequences clearly?"
He was about to vomit to death in his heart, so he raised his head, looked at Long Xi bitterly and said, "But if you disrespect me from the beginning, you...you treat me like a beast slave, this life...for the rest of your life In this life, I... How could I still have feelings for you..."
He suddenly stopped talking, smiled bitterly, and murmured: "Yeah, I'm so stupid, you are a majestic prince. How can you treat anyone sincerely? Aren't those who accompany you on the bed are all your sex slaves?" How could I be an exception? It’s just that everyone else is trying to be your sex slave, but I’m just unwilling, I... I’m so stupid, my lord, just pretend I didn’t say anything..."
When Zuo Yanting said this, countless sadness really welled up in his heart, a tear slipped down the corner of his eye, and he quickly wiped it away.This action also completely shattered Long Xi's defense.
Holding Zuo Yanting in his arms distressedly, he said softly: "Yanting, don't be like this, is it okay if I don't send people to follow you? I am sincere to you. I really like you, every moment I want to see you, and the reason why I went too far last time was because I couldn't see you, so I became irritable."
Hearing what he said, Zuo Yanting immediately felt a surge of surprise in his heart, but he knew that he couldn't show any flaws at this time, so he quickly suppressed the smile on his lips, suppressed the discomfort in his heart that was about to vomit, and leaned his head against the On Long Xi's chest, he whispered: "Is what you said true? Are you willing... Are you willing to treat me like an ordinary person? You won't send someone to follow me?"
"I am the prince, so I will do what I say. It's just that I sent someone to follow you, not just to follow you. You are a scholar, and you have no strength to restrain a chicken. I am afraid that you will be kidnapped or hurt by bad guys, so I will send someone. The shadow guards are protecting you in secret." Long Xi explained softly, his words made Zuo Yanting's heart beat hard.
"I...I don't need your protection, hum...you...don't think that I will believe you if you say this." Zuo Yanting actually knew that what Long Xi said was true, but at this time he had to distort the facts.He couldn't let his heart go, whether it was moved or cowardly, it would affect his escape plan.He doesn't want to ruin his life's happiness because of a momentary mood.
"I know you won't believe it." Long Xi smiled faintly: "Well, since you don't like it, I will remove the shadow guard. But Yanting, you have to promise me, don't change your mind. Don't even think about it. You can't escape without a shadow guard. Even if you escape, you can't escape from my palm."
While talking, Long Xi stretched out his hand to hold Zuo Yanting's face, and kissed the bright red lips lightly: "You know that I will be very irritable at certain times, and I don't want to be angry in the future. One day, I will punish you inhumanely."
His words made Zuo Yanting's body shudder, desperately suppressing the fear in his mind, he stubbornly looked into Long Xi's eyes: "Don't worry, I will never give you this chance."
Long Xi smiled, put down his hands, picked up the bath towel to wipe his body again, and said softly, "That's good. Yanting, don't always go back in the future, just stay by my side, okay? I like you, you don't know , A while ago, every time I went to the morning court, I was very happy just thinking that I could come back to see you. After you came home, I couldn’t cheer up every day, and my brothers made fun of me for it.”
Zuo Yanting thought that you deserved it, you asked for it.But he pretended to hesitate and said: "But...but my parents are in the capital, how do you want me to live in the palace? I...I can still say that I am in a bad mood right now, so I should just relax at a friend's house. But what about the future? What reason will I find to live with you in the future?"
Long Xi frowned, and said "En", thinking that this is indeed a troublesome matter.But Zuo Yanting is going to make a decision, and this cannot be changed.Yin Xie smiled and said, "Since that's the case, why not tell them about our relationship."
"You dare." Zuo Yanting sat up abruptly, glaring at Long Xi angrily, "I have only one son in our family, and my parents still count on me to continue the family line. Now you want to tell them about our relationship. Long Xi , even if you are a prince, my parents will not be happy, do you understand? What's more, I have grandparents, they will be pissed off by you."
"Then what should I do? Anyway, I don't care, you must stay by my side, you must not go home more than five times a year, and you must not live there for more than three days each time." Long Xi simply began to cheat, leaning Looking at Zuo Yanting with narrowed eyes: "Either you have to find a way. Or explain our relationship. In short, it's up to you."
The troubles that had troubled Zuo Yanting for many days were resolved in this way.This did make him overjoyed, but no traces could be revealed on the surface.I quietly planned it in my heart.He sat down again, and said in a low voice: "Okay, I... I will find a way, no matter what, you are not allowed to intervene, in short... In short, you have to be patient for a while, I will definitely go home a few more times during this period, but in the future , I... I will definitely think of a way to get the best of both worlds."
"Okay, I'll listen to you, let me see how Qinqin Yanting uses this method." Long Xi resumed his usual banter, turned to Zuo Yanting's face and kissed it hard, He said softly: "I love the stupid Yanting, and I also love the smart Yanting. Tsk tsk, if I knew I would fall into your hands, I shouldn't have entered that Shuxiangzhai in the first place."
"I'm also thinking, if you didn't enter Shuxiangzhai at that time, and we didn't become friends, it would be great." Zuo Yanting muttered to himself, and his thoughts flew back to the moment when we first met.
The next moment, there was a pain in his shoulder, and when he looked up, Long Xi's face was full of anger, and he shouted viciously: "I was just joking, I never regret it, I can only be lucky. So Yanting you Don't regret it, don't regret knowing me, understand?"
"Understood." Zuo Yanting responded perfunctorily.But he smiled helplessly in his heart: "Okay, the water is a little cold, and I have washed almost well. Let's go to sleep. I think the bones and frames are falling apart."
Long Xi smiled, got up and picked up the big square scarf from the screen, but saw Zuo Yanting stood up, stretched out his hand and said: "Let me do it myself, you are a prince, how dare I let you serve me..."
Before he finished speaking, Long Xi patted his hand lightly, and he raised his eyebrows and smiled and said, "This is my pleasure, you don't want to take it away." After speaking, he couldn't help but wiped his body dry, and then hugged him by the waist. beside the bed.
Seeing that the bedding had been changed, Zuo Yanting couldn't help but smiled wryly: "Your maidservants are really light-footed. When did they come in? Why don't I know?"
Long Xi put him on the bed, then lay down himself, pulled the thin quilt under his feet to cover the two of them, Fang smiled and said: "If they don't even have this ability, are they still worthy of being my maids? You know You're shy, so naturally I can't let you know."
"Am I the only one who is shy? That's right, your skin is thicker than a city wall. How could I expect you to be shy." Zuo Yanting snorted, which made Long Xi laugh. Shame, but also a little smug.Zuo Yanting turned around angrily and ignored him, but he soon turned around and hugged him in his arms.
