broken night
Chapter 3
The scent of sweet-scented osmanthus flowers filled the courtyard, and the autumn wind blew through, and the tiny white flowers fell in disorder like snow, falling on people's shoulders and hair tips, exuding a refreshing fragrance.
Ye Xian stood in the corridor with his hands behind his back, watching the wind rise and fall leisurely, in a trance, it seemed as if the bleak and severe snow of the North was floating in front of his eyes, the biting cold wind like a knife, rolled up the snowflakes flying all over the sky, mixed with The finely crushed ice slag hit the face of the person, as well as the cold and heavy armor.
War drums were heard frequently in the ear, the shouts of killing rose and fell like waves, horseshoes stepped on the red-stained snow, the light of the knife flashed, and the splattered blood melted before it hit the ground.
The liu horse has newly straddled the white jade saddle, and the moonlight is cold on the battlefield after the battle.Who beat the war drum, let the frozen red snow everywhere reflect the cold moon in the sky?
The soldiers are approaching the city, and the flames of war are rising into the sky, who will put on the battle robe for him, serve that cup of wine, and throw the empty bottle before the horse?
Who personally made the tiger-head mask that is attached to the cheek?Who stabbed the fierce tiger behind him?
The chaotic scene was intertwined, and it was chaotic. Countless familiar names came to my lips, but none of them could be said.The memories of the past are like locked in an impenetrable city, covered with silent ashes, and the outlines cannot be discerned.
Why... can't he remember?
"Yexian." The gentle male voice pierced through this illusion-like barrier and brought him back to his senses. As if waking up from a dream, Yexian turned around with the bewildered expression of a lost child. Looking at the man who was walking towards him, the wind blew up his robe, and the fragrance of flowers became more intense, intoxicating.
"Yexian?" Shen Yingchi stroked his cheek with one hand, looked at the other's sleepwalking expression, and asked, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you wake up?"
"Yingchi..." Yexian's eyes were blank, and his hoarse voice subconsciously called out his name, his whole body relaxed like a broken bow, blinked, and asked, "Have I been on a battlefield before?"
Shen Yingchi narrowed his eyes, stared deeply at him, and said, "Go up, you and I used to gallop side by side, riding horses to kill the enemy."
"Oh?" Yexian looked at him puzzled, and asked, "Then why did you become a general, but I became a useless person who did nothing?"
"Because you were injured." Shen Yingchi wrapped his arms around his waist, patted his back comfortingly, and said softly, "You are seriously injured, not only have you lost all your martial arts, you can't even remember the past. "
Ye Xian leaned obediently in front of him, her dark eyes gradually became clear again, and asked, "Don't you despise me?"
"How could it be?" Shen Yingchi hugged him tighter, and said, "No matter what you become, you are my Yexian, don't let your imagination run wild, do you hear me?"
The domineering tone made Yexian couldn't help laughing, and said in a low voice: "Obey, my general."
Waking up again in the middle of the night, without any sleepiness, Shen Yingchi was obviously in the middle of a good dream, breathing steadily and long, with one hand resting on his waist habitually.
Yexian propped up his upper body and sat quietly for a while, his thoughts were hard to calm down. The scent of sweet-scented osmanthus flowers faintly swayed into the bed curtain, like a silent call, prompting him to get out of bed with his clothes on, and slipped out lightly.
Unexpectedly, he came to the pond again, and the thin figure was standing by the bank, reflecting the moonlight, making him even thinner. Ye Xian wanted to call him, but he couldn't call his name.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the young man wiped his eyes indiscriminately, turned his head, and widened a pair of red and swollen rabbit eyes. After seeing the person coming, the eyes were filled with moisture again.The appearance of crying on the scholarly family forum made him feel a sharp pain in his chest, as if the baby he was holding and caring in his hands had been broken, Ye Xian couldn't help but reach out and wipe away the remaining tears on the young man's cheeks, softly Said: "Why do you still love to cry so much?"
As soon as the whisper-like words came out, not only the boy was taken aback, but even Ye Xian was also stunned.
Why is there such a natural feeling of pampering?It was as if they had known each other for a long time and were very close.
The young man looked up at him with an expression of surprise, his delicate lips trembled slightly, and the tears that filled his eyes involuntarily slid down, splashing on Yexian's hands with scorching temperature, and the cold moonlight shone on his face It emits a dazzling halo, just like the long-lived boy on the lotus throne in front of the Buddha, pure, clear, and flawless.
"...Yue..." Yexian murmured unconsciously, before he recovered, the young man had thrown himself into his arms, his clothes were wet with tears, and he was sobbing.
Patting him on the shoulder like coaxing a child, and finally waiting for him to cry enough, Yexian wiped his tear-stained little face and asked, "What's your name? You recognize me, right?"
The boy's eyes widened, his hair stood up like a plucked cat, he choked twice, and said in a hoarse voice, "You...don't you remember anything?"
Ye Xian frowned, looked at each other up and down, and said, "What is the relationship between you and me? Or... are you here to find General Shen?"
The word General Shen was like a whip, which made the boy's face turn pale. He sat on the grass with his head down, smiled silently, his eyes were full of sadness and despair, and asked, "You and him...are you being forced?" ?”
Ye Xian shook his head, looked at the other party in puzzlement, the young man trembled all over, grabbed the blades of grass with his thin white fingers, and said in a hateful voice: "I have a sworn hatred with him."
Yexian's expression froze, he lifted the boy's chin, his eyes were sharp, and he ordered: "Speak clearly."
The young man's beautiful eyes were filled with grievance and unwillingness, and he said in a low voice, "The hatred of ruining the country, the grief of being separated, you don't understand, you don't understand at all!"
His bloodshot eyes gradually became frantic and fierce. He grabbed Yexian's shoulders and growled, "If he and his dog emperor hadn't insisted on expanding the territory, our country of Li would not have ceded fourteen lands. The most fertile city has caused tens of thousands of people to suffer from being displaced, and will not bow to the dog emperor and pay tribute every year, and the eldest brother... will not leave us..."
At the end, he choked up again, pinched a piece of grass and bit it heavily in his mouth, gasping for breath, Ye Xian vaguely figured out some clues.This young man is supposed to be the son of everyone, either rich or noble, but because of the war three years ago, he was exiled among the people, and his elder brother must have died on the battlefield, blood-stained in the border town.
Thinking of those vague dreams, although he has forgotten the past, the tragic scenes have been deeply engraved in his heart and cannot be erased. Did he follow Yingchi to fight in the battlefield?These hands are bound to be stained with blood, but which of them will be melted into the deep-rooted hatred of the young man?
"You... are you here to seek revenge from him?" Ye Xian stared into his eyes, and asked in a deep voice, the young man bit his lips to bleed, and nodded, "If I say yes, will you stop it?"
"meeting."
Yexian replied without hesitation, and the boy asked in a low voice, "Why!?"
Yexian stood up slowly, shook off the grass clippings on his robe, and said flatly, "Because... I love him."
The affection he had never expressed to anyone, he poured out clearly and firmly at this moment, and after finishing speaking, he no longer looked at the pale face of the young man, turned and left.
Yes, I love him, unforgettable.
Returning quietly to the room with a chill in his body, Ye Xian lifted the bed curtains, and was suddenly grabbed by his wrist, his eyes blurred, he bent down on Shen Yingchi's body, and met those deep eyes.
"Where did you go?" Shen Yingchi's tone was somewhat dissatisfied, she sniffed at his neck, and said, "It smells like sweet-scented osmanthus flowers."
Ye Xian took off his outer robe, quickly got into the quilt, and honestly pressed his cold limbs against the other's warm body. Shen Yingchi was so excited that he shivered, sighed in compromise, and turned over. Pressing down on him with half of her body, she hugged Yexian tightly, rubbed his neck lightly with her fingers, and said in a low voice: "You just have the heart to leave me alone and alone?"
Ye Xian was amused by his half-truth and half-fake complaints, stretched out his hand to hold that handsome face, and said lightly: "At that time... did I forget you too?"
"Yeah." Shen Yingchi lowered her head and kissed him, and said vaguely, "Fortunately, I held on tightly so that I was not ruthlessly abandoned."
His chest was full of affection, Yexian responded to his kiss softly, some words rushed to his lips, but he couldn't say anything.
Shen Yingchi saw his uneasiness, smiled evilly, touched his hot cheek lightly with fingertips, and asked, "What did you think of, you blushed like this?"
Yexian turned her head away from him in embarrassment, and buried her face in the pillow. How could Shen Yingzhi let go of this great opportunity, dangling him in her arms, coaxing and seducing him, insisting on forcing him to confide in love words? .
After waiting so long, can I ask for some promises?Even a mighty and brave general, in the face of love, is nothing more than a mortal worrying about gains and losses.
Although Ye Xian was obedient to him, he never took the initiative to show love to him, which made Shen Yingchi feel a fly in the ointment despite being frustrated.
What's more, the person in his arms is a priceless treasure that he obtained through all kinds of hardships, and he has already decided to stay together for the rest of his life.
Ye Xian couldn't be entangled, so she blushed and asked softly, "What do you want to hear?"
"Say you love me, say you can't leave me." Shen Yingchi didn't blush and was out of breath, "Say you will never leave me for the rest of your life."
Ye Xian's face was about to bleed, and he muttered for a long time, then said dejectedly: "Let me say this, it would be better to give me a knife."
"You..." Shen Yingchi stared at him for a while, then said with a wry smile, "Aren't you willing to say something nice?"
"What did you say?" Yexian pushed him away, turned over, and said awkwardly, "You can't feel how I treat you? Do you have to say it?"
Shen Yingchi was choked, startled, and couldn't help laughing secretly that he was showing such a childish attitude, but anyway, he lost face, so he just played around to the end, he propped up his upper body, and asked persistently: "You won't leave Me?"
Yexian was silent for a moment, and asked without answering: "If I leave, will you find me from all corners of the world?"
"meeting."
Shen Yingchi nodded, Yexian yawned, and said lazily, "Since that's the case, why are you talking so much?"
Being led over by four or two jins, Shen Yingchi was angry and funny, took Yexian's hand and pressed it on her chest, and said in a low voice: "From now on, don't forget me again."
Yexian stretched her arms around his waist, pressed her cheek against his shoulder, and gave a low "um", Shen Yingchi almost melted her heart, embraced the docile lover in her arms, and fell asleep contentedly.
The capital city was originally a flashy place, rich and powerful families played and sang every night, and even ordinary people often saved up a few pennies and went to the teaching workshop to listen to a little song. Even when reporting on his duties, he is always drunk and gentle, and he is reluctant to leave. Shen Yingchi can be regarded as an outlier in people's eyes. He was born in the army and has a cold and tough personality. Looking at Yexian, he also acted very indifferent to the dinner that couldn't be pushed away. Yan Ji, who accompanied the drink, sat on his knees and didn't even move his eyebrows. Another hard rock!
So the gossip about General Shen doting on a beautiful man became more and more lively, especially when he once again declined the emperor's marriage offer, and he took leave of absence from court every three days, and he didn't go out much on weekdays. People can guess this. The general who terrified the enemy army may have become addicted and unable to extricate himself.
The gossip among the courtiers reached the emperor's ears, and they were all laughed off. As long as the courtiers were loyal and dedicated, Zhu Jinheng never bothered to take care of their housework, until Prime Minister You played a book by Shen Yingchi, saying that he was absurd, lewd and corrupt. Lunchang aroused Zhu Jinheng's curiosity, and on a whim, he drove to the general's mansion after the morning court one day.
"Shen Aiqing has been ill for a long time, I am really worried." Changing into casual clothes, Zhu Jinheng only brought a few personal guards with him, under the pretense of visiting a sick person, to disturb people's tranquility.
Shen Yingchi also pretended to be decent, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty is concerned, I am very grateful."
Zhu Jinheng laughed, and said: "You are more carefree than I am. Prime Minister Wang has already played a book for you, complaining that our general is addicted to wine and sex, neglecting court affairs."
Shen Yingchi raised his eyebrows, but he didn't take it to heart at all—he wouldn't stay in the capital for long anyway, and he didn't bother to care about those sour literati.
Ye Xian was a little embarrassed. Although he usually stayed at home, he knew that the matter between himself and Shen Yingchi was passed on as a joke among the court and the public. He was not as thick-skinned as General Shen. With a somewhat gloomy face, Shen Yingchi gave him a warm smile, his eyes were full of tenderness, making Zhu Jinheng feel numb, and couldn't help being envious and jealous.
Tsk tsk, I am the emperor, surrounded by pearls and emeralds, and beauties like clouds, but none of them make him fall in love. Everyone in the harem is dignified and quiet, as gentle as spring water, but Zhu Jinheng sighed secretly, he wants those lifeless What do the concubines do?Could it be that the Ninth Five-Year Venerable would not be able to taste this heart-pounding feeling in his entire life?
The long and narrow eyes narrowed slightly, flashing with a cunning light like a fox, and glanced at them maliciously, making Shen Yingchi's scalp tense, knowing that the emperor's evil intentions had surfaced again, and sure enough. , the emperor held the teacup and said with a smile: "I heard that a while ago, the third brother brought Yue Chenglin, the envoy of the Li Kingdom, to your house to listen to the music?"
"It's true, I dare not lie to Your Majesty." Unable to figure out what medicine was sold in the other party's gourd, Shen Yingchi decided to tell the truth. When Ye Xian heard the word "Li Guo", she suddenly felt unspeakable. Unexpectedly, I thought of that young man who was as pale and beautiful as the moon.
He knew that three years ago, Shen Yingchi had led the army to defeat the army of Li State, beheaded the prince of Li State under his tent, and attacked the capital Huyan all the way, so that he had to cede the land to seek peace, and bowed his head to the Celestial Dynasty.
An expedition, mentioned in a few words, always made him shudder, and he couldn't tell who it was for.
Zhu Jinheng saw that Ye Xian was restless, and said with a smile: "Then Ruixue is also from Li Country, and Yue Chenglin came here to catch up with her?"
Shen Yingchi's head started to hurt, and he answered yes vaguely. Sure enough, the emperor leaned towards him and asked, "You didn't take her into the house? Did my general have more than enough heart but not enough power?" ?”
Shen Yingchi's face was cramped, she gritted her teeth and replied: "Although a beauty is good, the subject is not blessed to enjoy it."
"Oh?" Zhu Jinheng caressed the delicate pattern on the teacup casually, "But the Taizu has shown his might?"
Ye Xian pulled back his consciousness from the fugue, and after listening to this sentence half-understood, he was so embarrassed that he wanted to dig a hole in the ground, Shen Yingchi saw his annoyance, and found an excuse for him to bid farewell to the emperor Zhu Jinheng didn't feel embarrassed, and waved his hand to let him go. Seeing the obviously relieved Yexian leave, he turned to Shen Yingchi with a smile, and said, "I won't even tease you, Shen Aiqing is really stingy!"
Shen Yingchi said helplessly, "My wife is thin-skinned, I made His Majesty laugh."
"You guys..." Zhu Jinheng shook his head, "Forget it, let's take him into office when the spring begins, so as not to have people pointing fingers in the capital. I didn't bother to care about these things at first, but Prime Minister Wang participated in it, so it's not easy to refute his Old face, deduct two months of your salary as a punishment."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for fulfilling the task." Shen Yingchi thanked her in a hurry. As for the deduction of two months' salary, it was a trivial matter, and it didn't hurt or itch.
"Okay." Zhu Jinheng put down his teacup, waved his hands, and said, "I heard that the whole capital city belongs to your mansion, where the sweet-scented osmanthus blossoms the best. Shen Aiqing will accompany me to the backyard for a walk. Let's relax."
Is there any reason for Shen Yingchi not to follow?So the monarch and his ministers waved away their followers, chatted and strolled leisurely towards the back garden.
The flowers are coming to an end, and the fragrance becomes more intense and deep. The whole General's Mansion is filled with a refreshing fragrance. Passing through the Moon Gate, the eyes are full of fragrant clouds, and the tiny petals float all over the ground, floating in the water waves, and the autumn wind blows by. The flowers on the branches fell like snow, covering the corners of people's clothes and hair.
Zhu Jinheng took a deep breath, and sighed: "I know the osmanthus fragrans in the sky, how can I ask Chang'e if there is any. Fortunately, the Moon Palace has an idle field, why not plant two in the center?"
The always high-spirited son of heaven suddenly felt lonely, especially after seeing other people's love and affection, he couldn't help but feel a little sad and sad-even though he has thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, there is not even a person around him who can relieve his boredom. The third brother is always getting bored with the envoy of Nali country these days, which makes him feel very boring as the emperor's brother.
Seeing the emperor's full of resentment, Shen Yingchi didn't point it out, and said: "I asked someone to set up wine and food in the lake pavilion. If your Majesty doesn't mind, it would be interesting to have a few drinks."
Zhu Jinheng gave him an appreciative look, and said, "Alright, I really feel a little hungry."
The two walked through the osmanthus forest and walked towards the pavilion in the middle of the lake. A young man dressed as a servant came in front of him. When he saw them, he saluted and stood by the road with his head bowed to let the road open.
The new servant of the general's mansion had never seen the emperor, and he was dressed in casual clothes, so it was common sense that he couldn't recognize him. Zhu Jinheng was still admiring the sweet-scented osmanthus flowers on both sides of the road, and didn't bother to look at him more.
As he passed by, the boy suddenly got into trouble, and pulled out a sharp knife to stab Zhu Jinheng in the chest!
Before the king of a country could react, he only heard a "clang clang", and the knife fell on the cobblestone road. The young man's slender wrist was twisted behind Shen Yingchi, his body was restrained, but his expression was calm and dull, without any change.
Shen Yingchi sneered, and took off the human skin mask on the boy's face with one hand, Zhu Jinheng couldn't help but let out a low cry, his eyes widened in disbelief.
Even the painfully distorted face is still so beautiful that it takes one's breath away, and those big black and white eyes glared at him with raging anger, murderous, but terribly alluring, Zhu Jinheng only felt his chest swell , a heart beating wildly.
"Assassination of the emperor is a crime that should be executed." Shen Yingchi picked up the knife on the ground. The young man's face was pale, but he bit his lips, and he refused to utter a word to beg for mercy when the light of the knife met his chest.
"Wait!" Zhu Jinheng yelled to stop, saving a life from the knife, "How can you take such a rare beauty?"
The boy's face turned from pale to ashen, and he cursed: "You dog emperor has no conscience..."
Shen Yingchi tapped his dumb acupoint to silence him, knelt down on one knee, and said: "Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to punish you for not being aware of it."
The boy was still struggling and kicking endlessly, Zhu Jinheng looked at him with great interest, and said: "Shen Aiqing is flat, what is the identity of this kid? It seems that he hates me deeply."
A look of fear flashed in the young man's eyes, and he kicked desperately at His Majesty the Emperor opposite. Shen Yingchi dragged him back, avoiding the tragedy of Zhu Jinheng being kicked to death, and restrained the kid's movements with one hand, saying: "He is Li Guo's second prince, Chi Yue."
After a moment of astonishment, Zhu Jinheng quickly recovered the calm majesty of the king, and pondered: "In this case, it is really a hot potato."
The second prince of Li Guo sneaked into the general's mansion with the intention of assassinating the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty. Once word of this leaks out, it is inevitable that the two countries will go to war again. Zhu Jinheng has been in power for three years, and he has long since lost his fierceness and sharpness when he took the throne. His style is much more stable. The other party's unparalleled beauty suddenly raised a bit of reluctance like pity and pity.
But he didn't forget that this brat was very fierce, staring at him wishing he could blow his bones to ashes.
Shen Yingchi pulled off Chi Yue's hairband, tied his hands behind his back, and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this humble minister will never make it public, if you want to kill him, you will cut him to pieces, but according to His Majesty's words."
"No." Zhu Jinheng stopped subconsciously, raised Chiyue's chin with one hand, and asked, "Do you want to die or live? Shake your head if you don't want to die."
The young man who had been hit on the Ya point was unable to make a sound, and opened his mouth to bite the emperor's wrist. Shen Ying slashed at the back of his neck with a palm, knocking out the brat who had repeatedly offended Tianwei, shaking his head and saying: "Your Majesty, pardon me To put it bluntly, this person is perverted and violent, and it is not suitable for him to be by your side all the time."
He could see the emperor's thoughts, no doubt he was fascinated by the color, and he had thoughts about Chiyue, and the look in his eyes seemed to eat him up.
Chi Yue fell limply, Zhu Jinheng stretched out his hand to hold him in front of him, with a sullen face, he said: "I have my own measure, Shen Aiqing doesn't need to say more."
After finishing speaking, he hugged Chiyue by the waist, covered the young man's face with his sleeves, and said: "I want to take him back to the palace. From today on, he is my man, no longer the second prince!"
Shen Yingchi bowed her head in response, and respectfully sent the emperor up to drive back to the palace, watching the dragon chariot slowly go away, with a sly smile on the corner of her lips.
The familiar incense mixed with the unfamiliar sweet aroma made him drowsy, like a boulder was pressed against his chest, no matter how hard he struggled, he would not move at all. The dream wrapped him up, and countless scenes flashed before his eyes. Before he had time to distinguish, he vaguely heard someone calling him in a low voice with a crying voice, each sentence, each sound, heartbroken, Ye Xian followed the sound and searched around. His heart was crushed by the low sobbing sound, and he stretched out his hand in a daze to touch the familiar shadow, but it disappeared in an instant like a flower in a mirror, half awake, and the moving lips unconsciously murmured the long-buried name in his heart ——
"Blazing Moon..."
The slack eyes slowly focused, seeing clearly the man holding his hand beside the bed, Yexian smiled weakly, and said hoarsely, "How long have I been asleep?"
Shen Yingchi put his hand lightly on her face, and said in a low voice: "It's evening, I'm about to wake you up for dinner, why don't you feel uncomfortable?"
"I'm not used to smelling that incense." Yexian was a little dizzy, propped up his upper body, stroked the other's raised eyebrows with his fingers, and asked, "Do you have something on your mind?"
Shen Yingchi pursed her lips, pulled him to sit up, leaned on him half leaning and half hugging, and said, "I want to take you to Jiangnan for the winter."
"It's up to you." Yexian coughed lowly, hesitated for a moment, then raised his head and said, "There is a child who works as a servant in the kitchen, I want to bring him here."
"Huh?" Shen Yingchi frowned with a pair of thick eyebrows, "Who is so lucky to catch your blue eyes?"
Ye Xian opened his mouth, only to remember that the child had never reported his name, he frowned, and said, "He is extremely beautiful, and his body is thin, so he might not be able to do rough work."
"So you were moved with compassion?" Shen Yingchi snorted, "Aren't you afraid that I'll be jealous?"
Yexian's dark eyes were full of smiles, and he said, "You're such an old man, why do you still eat children's jealousy?"
I always have some worries in my heart, afraid that the innocent child will do something stupid on impulse, so I just put it under my nose so that I can control it better.
Whether he hurt Yingchi or Yingchi punished him, it was not what Yexian wanted to see. It was not out of any kindness, but he always felt that the boy had some kind of subtle connection with him, so he said no. Qing Dao is not clear, nor can it be solved.
Shen Yingchi stared at him deeply, with complicated eyes. After a long time, he sighed, and said: "You are too late, the little devil was brought back by his family, and I am afraid he has left the capital now."
"Oh..." Yexian couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, "Forget it, that's fine."
The next day, after the morning court, the emperor announced Shen Yingchi to the imperial study, his face was very solemn, he turned away from the left and right, and paced up and down the study impatiently. Judging from the tooth marks on the emperor's wrist, he guessed that last night there must have been a commotion, which made the young heroic emperor look like a lion whose feet had been trampled on, full of hostility.
Shen Yingchi was not stupid enough to send him to the door as a punching bag, so he kept calm and waited for His Majesty to speak first, Zhu Jinheng rubbed the rug in front of the desk until it was about to lose hair, but the other party was as dumb and clumsy as a piece of wood, He knew how long he was going to be in a daze, and when he thought of that troublesome kid in the bedroom, his head was as big as a fight, but there was no way to go on like this, so he cleared his throat and asked, "Shen Aiqing, are you guilty?"
"Your Majesty is terrified, and I hope His Majesty will express it."
Shen Yingchi stood with his head bowed respectfully in an official tone, Zhu Jinheng snorted coldly, and said ironically, "You really don't know who Chi Yue's elder brother is?"
Shen Yingchi's eyelids twitched a few times, and she replied, "Yes...Ye Xian, I dare not lie to Your Majesty."
"Okay, Shen Yingchi!" Zhu Jinheng was furious, "Why don't you dare!? It's been three years since you were able to put Crown Prince Li under house arrest in your mansion! What a bold thing!" He turned around and took a piece of paper. The memorial fell on Shen Yingchi, and he said angrily: "The third younger brother made a statement on behalf of Yue Chenglin, and Li Guo proposed to exchange six cities for their prince. Fortunately, he didn't make a noise to everyone! You put my face on my face. Throw it all away! An important minister of the Celestial Dynasty has done such a beastly thing!"
"Your Majesty, please calm down." Shen Yingchi said leisurely, "In this case, even Zhiyue must be returned to them?"
Zhu Jinheng was at a loss for words for a moment, and glared at him fiercely. The veins on his forehead rose and fell, Shen Yingchi coughed and said, "Your Majesty, I and Ye Xian really love each other, please help me."
"Fulfillment?" Zhu Jinheng laughed angrily, "You mean, Crown Prince Li is willing to abandon the country and family, and follow you so vaguely?"
"Exactly." Shen Yingchi's face remained unchanged, and Zhu Jinheng admired the thickness of his skin. Recalling that the two people were indeed in love with each other, there was no sign of reluctance. Today, he was even more envious and jealous, and asked like a cannonball: " How do you make me perfect? After all, he is the future monarch of the Li country, do you want to disregard the family and the country for the sake of his children? For a man, you don’t even want the country?"
Murder intent flashed in Shen Yingchi's eyes, and he said: "Li Guo only has a few envoys in the capital, if you want this to happen without anyone noticing it, just silence them."
How could the Celestial Dynasty be so easy to grasp, not to mention that their crown prince had long forgotten the past, and Shen Yingchi was the only one in his memory.
There are so many people with similar looks in the world, but what can they do if they insist that this night is not that night?
Zhu Jinheng's anger dropped a little, he glanced at him, and said, "You think I don't want to? If it wasn't for fear of hurting third brother's face, how could Yue Chenglin survive to this day?"
It's a matter of the state, but fortunately Yue Chenglin also knows how to measure and doesn't show it around. Shen Yingchi can see the emperor's selfishness. He wants to keep Chiyue, but he doesn't want to hurt the face of the two countries. How could they let go when they couldn't get away from the capital of the Celestial Dynasty?
Now that things can only take one step at a time, Shen Yingchi changed the subject: "Your Majesty, Chi Yue...is there any offense?"
Zhu Jinheng rubbed his forehead, showing a bit of annoyance, and said: "If we judge it according to the laws of the country, ten heads are not enough to chop him off."
Thinking of Chi Yue's noisy scene last night, his ears were still buzzing - he had never seen such a noisy scene.Originally Zhu Jinheng felt sorry for his slender body and wanted to raise him for a few days before dismantling and eating him. He just planned to flirt, but he didn't expect that kid not only ungrateful, but also kicked, bit, beat and scolded the Ninth Five Lord, like It was a wild cat with sharp teeth and claws, which caused Zhu Jinheng's body to be painted several times. He pulled his face and was about to get angry when Chiyue suddenly cried out, shaking the ground from crying and almost deafening him. Ears, where does Zhu Jinheng still have the interest in flirting?
Patiently tossing and coaxing for half a night, but the little ghost turned a deaf ear at all, until he was tired from crying, he stopped, and with a hoarse voice, he scolded Zhu Jinheng for being inferior to a beast. I took a cup of sweat medicine for the little devil, in exchange for a moment of peace before the early morning.
The king of a country is so useless, it can be regarded as unprecedented, and there will be no one in the future. Zhu Jinheng is still angry when he thinks about it, and he is more determined to completely tame Chiyue.
It seems that the emperor is really obsessed with Chi Yue's appearance, so he is extremely tolerant to him. Shen Yingchi doesn't want to make things irreversible. After all, he is Yexian's younger brother, and he doesn't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha. He thought for a moment, then said: "Your Majesty, Chi Yue is still a child with a temper and doesn't know how to behave..."
"I know what you want to say." Zhu Jinheng interrupted coldly, "What do you think I am, a beast?"
The king of a country doesn't bother to do violence to a reluctant kid. Zhu Jinheng had a smile on his lips, and said word by word: "I want him to cry and beg me to favor him."
Ye Xian stood in the corridor with his hands behind his back, watching the wind rise and fall leisurely, in a trance, it seemed as if the bleak and severe snow of the North was floating in front of his eyes, the biting cold wind like a knife, rolled up the snowflakes flying all over the sky, mixed with The finely crushed ice slag hit the face of the person, as well as the cold and heavy armor.
War drums were heard frequently in the ear, the shouts of killing rose and fell like waves, horseshoes stepped on the red-stained snow, the light of the knife flashed, and the splattered blood melted before it hit the ground.
The liu horse has newly straddled the white jade saddle, and the moonlight is cold on the battlefield after the battle.Who beat the war drum, let the frozen red snow everywhere reflect the cold moon in the sky?
The soldiers are approaching the city, and the flames of war are rising into the sky, who will put on the battle robe for him, serve that cup of wine, and throw the empty bottle before the horse?
Who personally made the tiger-head mask that is attached to the cheek?Who stabbed the fierce tiger behind him?
The chaotic scene was intertwined, and it was chaotic. Countless familiar names came to my lips, but none of them could be said.The memories of the past are like locked in an impenetrable city, covered with silent ashes, and the outlines cannot be discerned.
Why... can't he remember?
"Yexian." The gentle male voice pierced through this illusion-like barrier and brought him back to his senses. As if waking up from a dream, Yexian turned around with the bewildered expression of a lost child. Looking at the man who was walking towards him, the wind blew up his robe, and the fragrance of flowers became more intense, intoxicating.
"Yexian?" Shen Yingchi stroked his cheek with one hand, looked at the other's sleepwalking expression, and asked, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you wake up?"
"Yingchi..." Yexian's eyes were blank, and his hoarse voice subconsciously called out his name, his whole body relaxed like a broken bow, blinked, and asked, "Have I been on a battlefield before?"
Shen Yingchi narrowed his eyes, stared deeply at him, and said, "Go up, you and I used to gallop side by side, riding horses to kill the enemy."
"Oh?" Yexian looked at him puzzled, and asked, "Then why did you become a general, but I became a useless person who did nothing?"
"Because you were injured." Shen Yingchi wrapped his arms around his waist, patted his back comfortingly, and said softly, "You are seriously injured, not only have you lost all your martial arts, you can't even remember the past. "
Ye Xian leaned obediently in front of him, her dark eyes gradually became clear again, and asked, "Don't you despise me?"
"How could it be?" Shen Yingchi hugged him tighter, and said, "No matter what you become, you are my Yexian, don't let your imagination run wild, do you hear me?"
The domineering tone made Yexian couldn't help laughing, and said in a low voice: "Obey, my general."
Waking up again in the middle of the night, without any sleepiness, Shen Yingchi was obviously in the middle of a good dream, breathing steadily and long, with one hand resting on his waist habitually.
Yexian propped up his upper body and sat quietly for a while, his thoughts were hard to calm down. The scent of sweet-scented osmanthus flowers faintly swayed into the bed curtain, like a silent call, prompting him to get out of bed with his clothes on, and slipped out lightly.
Unexpectedly, he came to the pond again, and the thin figure was standing by the bank, reflecting the moonlight, making him even thinner. Ye Xian wanted to call him, but he couldn't call his name.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the young man wiped his eyes indiscriminately, turned his head, and widened a pair of red and swollen rabbit eyes. After seeing the person coming, the eyes were filled with moisture again.The appearance of crying on the scholarly family forum made him feel a sharp pain in his chest, as if the baby he was holding and caring in his hands had been broken, Ye Xian couldn't help but reach out and wipe away the remaining tears on the young man's cheeks, softly Said: "Why do you still love to cry so much?"
As soon as the whisper-like words came out, not only the boy was taken aback, but even Ye Xian was also stunned.
Why is there such a natural feeling of pampering?It was as if they had known each other for a long time and were very close.
The young man looked up at him with an expression of surprise, his delicate lips trembled slightly, and the tears that filled his eyes involuntarily slid down, splashing on Yexian's hands with scorching temperature, and the cold moonlight shone on his face It emits a dazzling halo, just like the long-lived boy on the lotus throne in front of the Buddha, pure, clear, and flawless.
"...Yue..." Yexian murmured unconsciously, before he recovered, the young man had thrown himself into his arms, his clothes were wet with tears, and he was sobbing.
Patting him on the shoulder like coaxing a child, and finally waiting for him to cry enough, Yexian wiped his tear-stained little face and asked, "What's your name? You recognize me, right?"
The boy's eyes widened, his hair stood up like a plucked cat, he choked twice, and said in a hoarse voice, "You...don't you remember anything?"
Ye Xian frowned, looked at each other up and down, and said, "What is the relationship between you and me? Or... are you here to find General Shen?"
The word General Shen was like a whip, which made the boy's face turn pale. He sat on the grass with his head down, smiled silently, his eyes were full of sadness and despair, and asked, "You and him...are you being forced?" ?”
Ye Xian shook his head, looked at the other party in puzzlement, the young man trembled all over, grabbed the blades of grass with his thin white fingers, and said in a hateful voice: "I have a sworn hatred with him."
Yexian's expression froze, he lifted the boy's chin, his eyes were sharp, and he ordered: "Speak clearly."
The young man's beautiful eyes were filled with grievance and unwillingness, and he said in a low voice, "The hatred of ruining the country, the grief of being separated, you don't understand, you don't understand at all!"
His bloodshot eyes gradually became frantic and fierce. He grabbed Yexian's shoulders and growled, "If he and his dog emperor hadn't insisted on expanding the territory, our country of Li would not have ceded fourteen lands. The most fertile city has caused tens of thousands of people to suffer from being displaced, and will not bow to the dog emperor and pay tribute every year, and the eldest brother... will not leave us..."
At the end, he choked up again, pinched a piece of grass and bit it heavily in his mouth, gasping for breath, Ye Xian vaguely figured out some clues.This young man is supposed to be the son of everyone, either rich or noble, but because of the war three years ago, he was exiled among the people, and his elder brother must have died on the battlefield, blood-stained in the border town.
Thinking of those vague dreams, although he has forgotten the past, the tragic scenes have been deeply engraved in his heart and cannot be erased. Did he follow Yingchi to fight in the battlefield?These hands are bound to be stained with blood, but which of them will be melted into the deep-rooted hatred of the young man?
"You... are you here to seek revenge from him?" Ye Xian stared into his eyes, and asked in a deep voice, the young man bit his lips to bleed, and nodded, "If I say yes, will you stop it?"
"meeting."
Yexian replied without hesitation, and the boy asked in a low voice, "Why!?"
Yexian stood up slowly, shook off the grass clippings on his robe, and said flatly, "Because... I love him."
The affection he had never expressed to anyone, he poured out clearly and firmly at this moment, and after finishing speaking, he no longer looked at the pale face of the young man, turned and left.
Yes, I love him, unforgettable.
Returning quietly to the room with a chill in his body, Ye Xian lifted the bed curtains, and was suddenly grabbed by his wrist, his eyes blurred, he bent down on Shen Yingchi's body, and met those deep eyes.
"Where did you go?" Shen Yingchi's tone was somewhat dissatisfied, she sniffed at his neck, and said, "It smells like sweet-scented osmanthus flowers."
Ye Xian took off his outer robe, quickly got into the quilt, and honestly pressed his cold limbs against the other's warm body. Shen Yingchi was so excited that he shivered, sighed in compromise, and turned over. Pressing down on him with half of her body, she hugged Yexian tightly, rubbed his neck lightly with her fingers, and said in a low voice: "You just have the heart to leave me alone and alone?"
Ye Xian was amused by his half-truth and half-fake complaints, stretched out his hand to hold that handsome face, and said lightly: "At that time... did I forget you too?"
"Yeah." Shen Yingchi lowered her head and kissed him, and said vaguely, "Fortunately, I held on tightly so that I was not ruthlessly abandoned."
His chest was full of affection, Yexian responded to his kiss softly, some words rushed to his lips, but he couldn't say anything.
Shen Yingchi saw his uneasiness, smiled evilly, touched his hot cheek lightly with fingertips, and asked, "What did you think of, you blushed like this?"
Yexian turned her head away from him in embarrassment, and buried her face in the pillow. How could Shen Yingzhi let go of this great opportunity, dangling him in her arms, coaxing and seducing him, insisting on forcing him to confide in love words? .
After waiting so long, can I ask for some promises?Even a mighty and brave general, in the face of love, is nothing more than a mortal worrying about gains and losses.
Although Ye Xian was obedient to him, he never took the initiative to show love to him, which made Shen Yingchi feel a fly in the ointment despite being frustrated.
What's more, the person in his arms is a priceless treasure that he obtained through all kinds of hardships, and he has already decided to stay together for the rest of his life.
Ye Xian couldn't be entangled, so she blushed and asked softly, "What do you want to hear?"
"Say you love me, say you can't leave me." Shen Yingchi didn't blush and was out of breath, "Say you will never leave me for the rest of your life."
Ye Xian's face was about to bleed, and he muttered for a long time, then said dejectedly: "Let me say this, it would be better to give me a knife."
"You..." Shen Yingchi stared at him for a while, then said with a wry smile, "Aren't you willing to say something nice?"
"What did you say?" Yexian pushed him away, turned over, and said awkwardly, "You can't feel how I treat you? Do you have to say it?"
Shen Yingchi was choked, startled, and couldn't help laughing secretly that he was showing such a childish attitude, but anyway, he lost face, so he just played around to the end, he propped up his upper body, and asked persistently: "You won't leave Me?"
Yexian was silent for a moment, and asked without answering: "If I leave, will you find me from all corners of the world?"
"meeting."
Shen Yingchi nodded, Yexian yawned, and said lazily, "Since that's the case, why are you talking so much?"
Being led over by four or two jins, Shen Yingchi was angry and funny, took Yexian's hand and pressed it on her chest, and said in a low voice: "From now on, don't forget me again."
Yexian stretched her arms around his waist, pressed her cheek against his shoulder, and gave a low "um", Shen Yingchi almost melted her heart, embraced the docile lover in her arms, and fell asleep contentedly.
The capital city was originally a flashy place, rich and powerful families played and sang every night, and even ordinary people often saved up a few pennies and went to the teaching workshop to listen to a little song. Even when reporting on his duties, he is always drunk and gentle, and he is reluctant to leave. Shen Yingchi can be regarded as an outlier in people's eyes. He was born in the army and has a cold and tough personality. Looking at Yexian, he also acted very indifferent to the dinner that couldn't be pushed away. Yan Ji, who accompanied the drink, sat on his knees and didn't even move his eyebrows. Another hard rock!
So the gossip about General Shen doting on a beautiful man became more and more lively, especially when he once again declined the emperor's marriage offer, and he took leave of absence from court every three days, and he didn't go out much on weekdays. People can guess this. The general who terrified the enemy army may have become addicted and unable to extricate himself.
The gossip among the courtiers reached the emperor's ears, and they were all laughed off. As long as the courtiers were loyal and dedicated, Zhu Jinheng never bothered to take care of their housework, until Prime Minister You played a book by Shen Yingchi, saying that he was absurd, lewd and corrupt. Lunchang aroused Zhu Jinheng's curiosity, and on a whim, he drove to the general's mansion after the morning court one day.
"Shen Aiqing has been ill for a long time, I am really worried." Changing into casual clothes, Zhu Jinheng only brought a few personal guards with him, under the pretense of visiting a sick person, to disturb people's tranquility.
Shen Yingchi also pretended to be decent, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty is concerned, I am very grateful."
Zhu Jinheng laughed, and said: "You are more carefree than I am. Prime Minister Wang has already played a book for you, complaining that our general is addicted to wine and sex, neglecting court affairs."
Shen Yingchi raised his eyebrows, but he didn't take it to heart at all—he wouldn't stay in the capital for long anyway, and he didn't bother to care about those sour literati.
Ye Xian was a little embarrassed. Although he usually stayed at home, he knew that the matter between himself and Shen Yingchi was passed on as a joke among the court and the public. He was not as thick-skinned as General Shen. With a somewhat gloomy face, Shen Yingchi gave him a warm smile, his eyes were full of tenderness, making Zhu Jinheng feel numb, and couldn't help being envious and jealous.
Tsk tsk, I am the emperor, surrounded by pearls and emeralds, and beauties like clouds, but none of them make him fall in love. Everyone in the harem is dignified and quiet, as gentle as spring water, but Zhu Jinheng sighed secretly, he wants those lifeless What do the concubines do?Could it be that the Ninth Five-Year Venerable would not be able to taste this heart-pounding feeling in his entire life?
The long and narrow eyes narrowed slightly, flashing with a cunning light like a fox, and glanced at them maliciously, making Shen Yingchi's scalp tense, knowing that the emperor's evil intentions had surfaced again, and sure enough. , the emperor held the teacup and said with a smile: "I heard that a while ago, the third brother brought Yue Chenglin, the envoy of the Li Kingdom, to your house to listen to the music?"
"It's true, I dare not lie to Your Majesty." Unable to figure out what medicine was sold in the other party's gourd, Shen Yingchi decided to tell the truth. When Ye Xian heard the word "Li Guo", she suddenly felt unspeakable. Unexpectedly, I thought of that young man who was as pale and beautiful as the moon.
He knew that three years ago, Shen Yingchi had led the army to defeat the army of Li State, beheaded the prince of Li State under his tent, and attacked the capital Huyan all the way, so that he had to cede the land to seek peace, and bowed his head to the Celestial Dynasty.
An expedition, mentioned in a few words, always made him shudder, and he couldn't tell who it was for.
Zhu Jinheng saw that Ye Xian was restless, and said with a smile: "Then Ruixue is also from Li Country, and Yue Chenglin came here to catch up with her?"
Shen Yingchi's head started to hurt, and he answered yes vaguely. Sure enough, the emperor leaned towards him and asked, "You didn't take her into the house? Did my general have more than enough heart but not enough power?" ?”
Shen Yingchi's face was cramped, she gritted her teeth and replied: "Although a beauty is good, the subject is not blessed to enjoy it."
"Oh?" Zhu Jinheng caressed the delicate pattern on the teacup casually, "But the Taizu has shown his might?"
Ye Xian pulled back his consciousness from the fugue, and after listening to this sentence half-understood, he was so embarrassed that he wanted to dig a hole in the ground, Shen Yingchi saw his annoyance, and found an excuse for him to bid farewell to the emperor Zhu Jinheng didn't feel embarrassed, and waved his hand to let him go. Seeing the obviously relieved Yexian leave, he turned to Shen Yingchi with a smile, and said, "I won't even tease you, Shen Aiqing is really stingy!"
Shen Yingchi said helplessly, "My wife is thin-skinned, I made His Majesty laugh."
"You guys..." Zhu Jinheng shook his head, "Forget it, let's take him into office when the spring begins, so as not to have people pointing fingers in the capital. I didn't bother to care about these things at first, but Prime Minister Wang participated in it, so it's not easy to refute his Old face, deduct two months of your salary as a punishment."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for fulfilling the task." Shen Yingchi thanked her in a hurry. As for the deduction of two months' salary, it was a trivial matter, and it didn't hurt or itch.
"Okay." Zhu Jinheng put down his teacup, waved his hands, and said, "I heard that the whole capital city belongs to your mansion, where the sweet-scented osmanthus blossoms the best. Shen Aiqing will accompany me to the backyard for a walk. Let's relax."
Is there any reason for Shen Yingchi not to follow?So the monarch and his ministers waved away their followers, chatted and strolled leisurely towards the back garden.
The flowers are coming to an end, and the fragrance becomes more intense and deep. The whole General's Mansion is filled with a refreshing fragrance. Passing through the Moon Gate, the eyes are full of fragrant clouds, and the tiny petals float all over the ground, floating in the water waves, and the autumn wind blows by. The flowers on the branches fell like snow, covering the corners of people's clothes and hair.
Zhu Jinheng took a deep breath, and sighed: "I know the osmanthus fragrans in the sky, how can I ask Chang'e if there is any. Fortunately, the Moon Palace has an idle field, why not plant two in the center?"
The always high-spirited son of heaven suddenly felt lonely, especially after seeing other people's love and affection, he couldn't help but feel a little sad and sad-even though he has thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, there is not even a person around him who can relieve his boredom. The third brother is always getting bored with the envoy of Nali country these days, which makes him feel very boring as the emperor's brother.
Seeing the emperor's full of resentment, Shen Yingchi didn't point it out, and said: "I asked someone to set up wine and food in the lake pavilion. If your Majesty doesn't mind, it would be interesting to have a few drinks."
Zhu Jinheng gave him an appreciative look, and said, "Alright, I really feel a little hungry."
The two walked through the osmanthus forest and walked towards the pavilion in the middle of the lake. A young man dressed as a servant came in front of him. When he saw them, he saluted and stood by the road with his head bowed to let the road open.
The new servant of the general's mansion had never seen the emperor, and he was dressed in casual clothes, so it was common sense that he couldn't recognize him. Zhu Jinheng was still admiring the sweet-scented osmanthus flowers on both sides of the road, and didn't bother to look at him more.
As he passed by, the boy suddenly got into trouble, and pulled out a sharp knife to stab Zhu Jinheng in the chest!
Before the king of a country could react, he only heard a "clang clang", and the knife fell on the cobblestone road. The young man's slender wrist was twisted behind Shen Yingchi, his body was restrained, but his expression was calm and dull, without any change.
Shen Yingchi sneered, and took off the human skin mask on the boy's face with one hand, Zhu Jinheng couldn't help but let out a low cry, his eyes widened in disbelief.
Even the painfully distorted face is still so beautiful that it takes one's breath away, and those big black and white eyes glared at him with raging anger, murderous, but terribly alluring, Zhu Jinheng only felt his chest swell , a heart beating wildly.
"Assassination of the emperor is a crime that should be executed." Shen Yingchi picked up the knife on the ground. The young man's face was pale, but he bit his lips, and he refused to utter a word to beg for mercy when the light of the knife met his chest.
"Wait!" Zhu Jinheng yelled to stop, saving a life from the knife, "How can you take such a rare beauty?"
The boy's face turned from pale to ashen, and he cursed: "You dog emperor has no conscience..."
Shen Yingchi tapped his dumb acupoint to silence him, knelt down on one knee, and said: "Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to punish you for not being aware of it."
The boy was still struggling and kicking endlessly, Zhu Jinheng looked at him with great interest, and said: "Shen Aiqing is flat, what is the identity of this kid? It seems that he hates me deeply."
A look of fear flashed in the young man's eyes, and he kicked desperately at His Majesty the Emperor opposite. Shen Yingchi dragged him back, avoiding the tragedy of Zhu Jinheng being kicked to death, and restrained the kid's movements with one hand, saying: "He is Li Guo's second prince, Chi Yue."
After a moment of astonishment, Zhu Jinheng quickly recovered the calm majesty of the king, and pondered: "In this case, it is really a hot potato."
The second prince of Li Guo sneaked into the general's mansion with the intention of assassinating the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty. Once word of this leaks out, it is inevitable that the two countries will go to war again. Zhu Jinheng has been in power for three years, and he has long since lost his fierceness and sharpness when he took the throne. His style is much more stable. The other party's unparalleled beauty suddenly raised a bit of reluctance like pity and pity.
But he didn't forget that this brat was very fierce, staring at him wishing he could blow his bones to ashes.
Shen Yingchi pulled off Chi Yue's hairband, tied his hands behind his back, and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this humble minister will never make it public, if you want to kill him, you will cut him to pieces, but according to His Majesty's words."
"No." Zhu Jinheng stopped subconsciously, raised Chiyue's chin with one hand, and asked, "Do you want to die or live? Shake your head if you don't want to die."
The young man who had been hit on the Ya point was unable to make a sound, and opened his mouth to bite the emperor's wrist. Shen Ying slashed at the back of his neck with a palm, knocking out the brat who had repeatedly offended Tianwei, shaking his head and saying: "Your Majesty, pardon me To put it bluntly, this person is perverted and violent, and it is not suitable for him to be by your side all the time."
He could see the emperor's thoughts, no doubt he was fascinated by the color, and he had thoughts about Chiyue, and the look in his eyes seemed to eat him up.
Chi Yue fell limply, Zhu Jinheng stretched out his hand to hold him in front of him, with a sullen face, he said: "I have my own measure, Shen Aiqing doesn't need to say more."
After finishing speaking, he hugged Chiyue by the waist, covered the young man's face with his sleeves, and said: "I want to take him back to the palace. From today on, he is my man, no longer the second prince!"
Shen Yingchi bowed her head in response, and respectfully sent the emperor up to drive back to the palace, watching the dragon chariot slowly go away, with a sly smile on the corner of her lips.
The familiar incense mixed with the unfamiliar sweet aroma made him drowsy, like a boulder was pressed against his chest, no matter how hard he struggled, he would not move at all. The dream wrapped him up, and countless scenes flashed before his eyes. Before he had time to distinguish, he vaguely heard someone calling him in a low voice with a crying voice, each sentence, each sound, heartbroken, Ye Xian followed the sound and searched around. His heart was crushed by the low sobbing sound, and he stretched out his hand in a daze to touch the familiar shadow, but it disappeared in an instant like a flower in a mirror, half awake, and the moving lips unconsciously murmured the long-buried name in his heart ——
"Blazing Moon..."
The slack eyes slowly focused, seeing clearly the man holding his hand beside the bed, Yexian smiled weakly, and said hoarsely, "How long have I been asleep?"
Shen Yingchi put his hand lightly on her face, and said in a low voice: "It's evening, I'm about to wake you up for dinner, why don't you feel uncomfortable?"
"I'm not used to smelling that incense." Yexian was a little dizzy, propped up his upper body, stroked the other's raised eyebrows with his fingers, and asked, "Do you have something on your mind?"
Shen Yingchi pursed her lips, pulled him to sit up, leaned on him half leaning and half hugging, and said, "I want to take you to Jiangnan for the winter."
"It's up to you." Yexian coughed lowly, hesitated for a moment, then raised his head and said, "There is a child who works as a servant in the kitchen, I want to bring him here."
"Huh?" Shen Yingchi frowned with a pair of thick eyebrows, "Who is so lucky to catch your blue eyes?"
Ye Xian opened his mouth, only to remember that the child had never reported his name, he frowned, and said, "He is extremely beautiful, and his body is thin, so he might not be able to do rough work."
"So you were moved with compassion?" Shen Yingchi snorted, "Aren't you afraid that I'll be jealous?"
Yexian's dark eyes were full of smiles, and he said, "You're such an old man, why do you still eat children's jealousy?"
I always have some worries in my heart, afraid that the innocent child will do something stupid on impulse, so I just put it under my nose so that I can control it better.
Whether he hurt Yingchi or Yingchi punished him, it was not what Yexian wanted to see. It was not out of any kindness, but he always felt that the boy had some kind of subtle connection with him, so he said no. Qing Dao is not clear, nor can it be solved.
Shen Yingchi stared at him deeply, with complicated eyes. After a long time, he sighed, and said: "You are too late, the little devil was brought back by his family, and I am afraid he has left the capital now."
"Oh..." Yexian couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, "Forget it, that's fine."
The next day, after the morning court, the emperor announced Shen Yingchi to the imperial study, his face was very solemn, he turned away from the left and right, and paced up and down the study impatiently. Judging from the tooth marks on the emperor's wrist, he guessed that last night there must have been a commotion, which made the young heroic emperor look like a lion whose feet had been trampled on, full of hostility.
Shen Yingchi was not stupid enough to send him to the door as a punching bag, so he kept calm and waited for His Majesty to speak first, Zhu Jinheng rubbed the rug in front of the desk until it was about to lose hair, but the other party was as dumb and clumsy as a piece of wood, He knew how long he was going to be in a daze, and when he thought of that troublesome kid in the bedroom, his head was as big as a fight, but there was no way to go on like this, so he cleared his throat and asked, "Shen Aiqing, are you guilty?"
"Your Majesty is terrified, and I hope His Majesty will express it."
Shen Yingchi stood with his head bowed respectfully in an official tone, Zhu Jinheng snorted coldly, and said ironically, "You really don't know who Chi Yue's elder brother is?"
Shen Yingchi's eyelids twitched a few times, and she replied, "Yes...Ye Xian, I dare not lie to Your Majesty."
"Okay, Shen Yingchi!" Zhu Jinheng was furious, "Why don't you dare!? It's been three years since you were able to put Crown Prince Li under house arrest in your mansion! What a bold thing!" He turned around and took a piece of paper. The memorial fell on Shen Yingchi, and he said angrily: "The third younger brother made a statement on behalf of Yue Chenglin, and Li Guo proposed to exchange six cities for their prince. Fortunately, he didn't make a noise to everyone! You put my face on my face. Throw it all away! An important minister of the Celestial Dynasty has done such a beastly thing!"
"Your Majesty, please calm down." Shen Yingchi said leisurely, "In this case, even Zhiyue must be returned to them?"
Zhu Jinheng was at a loss for words for a moment, and glared at him fiercely. The veins on his forehead rose and fell, Shen Yingchi coughed and said, "Your Majesty, I and Ye Xian really love each other, please help me."
"Fulfillment?" Zhu Jinheng laughed angrily, "You mean, Crown Prince Li is willing to abandon the country and family, and follow you so vaguely?"
"Exactly." Shen Yingchi's face remained unchanged, and Zhu Jinheng admired the thickness of his skin. Recalling that the two people were indeed in love with each other, there was no sign of reluctance. Today, he was even more envious and jealous, and asked like a cannonball: " How do you make me perfect? After all, he is the future monarch of the Li country, do you want to disregard the family and the country for the sake of his children? For a man, you don’t even want the country?"
Murder intent flashed in Shen Yingchi's eyes, and he said: "Li Guo only has a few envoys in the capital, if you want this to happen without anyone noticing it, just silence them."
How could the Celestial Dynasty be so easy to grasp, not to mention that their crown prince had long forgotten the past, and Shen Yingchi was the only one in his memory.
There are so many people with similar looks in the world, but what can they do if they insist that this night is not that night?
Zhu Jinheng's anger dropped a little, he glanced at him, and said, "You think I don't want to? If it wasn't for fear of hurting third brother's face, how could Yue Chenglin survive to this day?"
It's a matter of the state, but fortunately Yue Chenglin also knows how to measure and doesn't show it around. Shen Yingchi can see the emperor's selfishness. He wants to keep Chiyue, but he doesn't want to hurt the face of the two countries. How could they let go when they couldn't get away from the capital of the Celestial Dynasty?
Now that things can only take one step at a time, Shen Yingchi changed the subject: "Your Majesty, Chi Yue...is there any offense?"
Zhu Jinheng rubbed his forehead, showing a bit of annoyance, and said: "If we judge it according to the laws of the country, ten heads are not enough to chop him off."
Thinking of Chi Yue's noisy scene last night, his ears were still buzzing - he had never seen such a noisy scene.Originally Zhu Jinheng felt sorry for his slender body and wanted to raise him for a few days before dismantling and eating him. He just planned to flirt, but he didn't expect that kid not only ungrateful, but also kicked, bit, beat and scolded the Ninth Five Lord, like It was a wild cat with sharp teeth and claws, which caused Zhu Jinheng's body to be painted several times. He pulled his face and was about to get angry when Chiyue suddenly cried out, shaking the ground from crying and almost deafening him. Ears, where does Zhu Jinheng still have the interest in flirting?
Patiently tossing and coaxing for half a night, but the little ghost turned a deaf ear at all, until he was tired from crying, he stopped, and with a hoarse voice, he scolded Zhu Jinheng for being inferior to a beast. I took a cup of sweat medicine for the little devil, in exchange for a moment of peace before the early morning.
The king of a country is so useless, it can be regarded as unprecedented, and there will be no one in the future. Zhu Jinheng is still angry when he thinks about it, and he is more determined to completely tame Chiyue.
It seems that the emperor is really obsessed with Chi Yue's appearance, so he is extremely tolerant to him. Shen Yingchi doesn't want to make things irreversible. After all, he is Yexian's younger brother, and he doesn't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha. He thought for a moment, then said: "Your Majesty, Chi Yue is still a child with a temper and doesn't know how to behave..."
"I know what you want to say." Zhu Jinheng interrupted coldly, "What do you think I am, a beast?"
The king of a country doesn't bother to do violence to a reluctant kid. Zhu Jinheng had a smile on his lips, and said word by word: "I want him to cry and beg me to favor him."
