After falsely claiming to be pregnant, the whole court came to claim it

That night, Liu Xiangwan entered the palace as scheduled.

According to Li Yan's order, Su Heng set up wine and food in the water pavilion.

Liu Xiangwan wore a light blue robe today, with a jade pendant around his waist, and his hair was carefully combed. He looked exquisite and decent.Compared with it, Liu Linxi's slovenly appearance is inevitably a bit too casual.But the two of them sat cross-legged in the water pavilion, and there was a slight breeze from time to time to shake the hem of their clothes. On the contrary, Liu Linxi's wantonness was more suitable for this autumn moon lake.

"Brother doesn't look very well today, but what's wrong with you?" Liu Xiangwan asked.

"It's cool in autumn, and I've got a bit of wind and chill." Liu Linxi said.

Hearing this, Liu Xiangwan held down his wine glass and said, "Since you have a cold, don't drink."

"You're so young, you're taking care of me." Liu Linxi pretended to be angry, but put down the wine glass as she said.

Liu Xiangwan supported his wide sleeve with one hand, and clothed Liu Linxi with the other, which seemed a bit respectful to brothers and sisters.Looking at the gentle and humble younger brother in front of him, Liu Linxi couldn't help but think of Li Yan's words before, and his smile faded a little.

"Did you make friends in Taixue?" Liu Linxi asked.

"I don't know anyone too well." Liu Xiangwan said: "Before, I hit it off with Mr. Cheng, but it's a pity that he left..."

Liu Linxi heard the words and said: "Cheng Yuan is full of poems and books, and I also feel that it is a pity to join the army. Originally, I thought I could stop him... But next month, His Majesty said that he would find people from the Tuanhe Camp to guard the hunting grounds." , if I see Cheng Yuan at that time, I will persuade him."

"Your Majesty... you're not unhappy about this, are you?" Liu Xiangwan asked.

Liu Linxi was startled, but before he could answer, he heard Li Yan's voice behind him saying: "Why am I unhappy?"

Li Yan strode closer to the waterside pavilion, his eyes lingered on Liu Xiangwan for a moment, and then sat down between the two brothers.The palace servants at the side were about to pour wine for him, but he waved his hands and said: "Go down and wait first, there is no need to wait here."

The palace people retreated one by one after hearing the words, Liu Xiangwan picked up the jug and poured Li Yan a glass of wine when he saw this.

"Your Majesty, here is a toast to you." Liu Xiangwan held up his glass and said to Li Yan.

Li Yan smiled lightly, drank the wine, and said: "General Liu doesn't like to drink, so you can have a few more drinks with me tonight."

Liu Xiangwan hurriedly responded when he heard the words, and filled Li Yan's and his own wine glasses again.

Liu Linxi sat aside and watched the two come and go, feeling a little bored, so she leaned on the railing of the water pavilion to watch the moon.Although it is the fifteenth tonight, the moon seems to be a little bit, not very full.On the other hand, the mid-autumn wind suddenly blew up on the waterside pavilion, and it was rather cool, causing Liu Linxi to shiver.

"Is brother cold?" Liu Xiangwan asked with concern.

Before Liu Linxi could answer, Li Yan said: "It's cold outside, General Liu, why not go back and have a rest first, I'll have a few more drinks with Young Master Liu."

Hearing this, Liu Linxi glanced at Li Yan, seeing that Li Yan's gaze had been on Liu Xiangwan, he couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable.But he didn't want to watch the two drink together, so he got up and left.

Liu Xiangwan looked at Liu Linxi's back, and asked, "Brother, are you a little unhappy?"

"General Liu is very generous, how could he lose his temper because he missed a few glasses of wine?" Li Yan said.

"Your Majesty said so." Liu Xiangwan smiled.

His facial features were already handsome, but now that he was a little drunk, he looked even more eye-catching.

Li Yan looked at him with a half-smile, Liu Xiangwan noticed Li Yan's gaze, and smiled with a little embarrassment, his smile became brighter and more charming.

"The moonlight is so beautiful tonight, can Xiangwan have the courage to ask His Majesty to compose a poem?" Liu Xiangwan asked.

"When it comes to poetry, Mr. Liu should be better than me, right?" Li Yan said, "It's not like General Liu, who doesn't know how to write."

Liu Xiangwan said: "My brother grew up in the military camp since he was a teenager, and his temper and behavior are indeed rough. But Xiangwan remembers that he didn't like reading very much when he was young, and he often beat his chest and feet with anger..."

When Li Yan heard about Liu Linxi's youthful past, his eyes overflowed with tenderness, but then he quietly covered it, and said, "General Liu really...doesn't know much about customs. In this respect, he may not be as good as you in case..."

"Your Majesty's absurd praise." Liu Xiangwan lowered his eyes and gave Li Yan a slight salute.

There was a smile on Li Yan's face, but a bit of impatience appeared in his eyes, and he glanced at the entrance of the water pavilion from time to time.

After Liu Linxi went back, he took a hot bath, and finally dispelled a little of the coldness on his body.

But he leaned on the couch for a long time, but couldn't fall asleep.

Liu Linxi remembered that Li Yan didn't like to drink much at ordinary times, but the time when he was drunk was probably in Fenglin Palace, and Li Yan was used to messing around after drinking too much... Liu Linxi thought of what happened that night in Fenglin Palace, His face turned red.

But when he thought of Li Yan drinking with Liu Xiangwan in the waterside pavilion, he became a little irritable again...

I don't know if Li Yan's drinking is only for him, or for everyone.What if Li Yan drinks too much and bullies Liu Xiangwan?Liu Linxi frowned slightly worried, but after thinking about it, Li Yan had no position to influence who he would do to whom.

But no matter what, Liu Xiangwan is his younger brother. As an elder brother, he should protect his younger brother, right?

Thinking of this, Liu Linxi got up, put on a robe and went to the waterside pavilion.

In the water pavilion, Li Yan was trying to listen to Liu Xiangwan's poems, when he caught a glimpse of a figure approaching from the corner of his eye, he suddenly asked, "Are you cold?"

Hearing this, Liu Xiangwan reached out and hugged his arms, obviously cold.But he still smiled and said, "Xiang Wan is not afraid of the cold, and wants to have a few more drinks with His Majesty."

Li Yan smiled faintly when he heard this, took off his cloak and covered Liu Xiangwan.

Liu Xiangwan was startled, his eyes fell on Li Yan's handsome face, and his face turned red.

At the entrance of the water pavilion, Liu Linxi saw this scene in his eyes, couldn't help but sneered, turned around and left without looking back.

It was late at night, Li Yan came out of the water pavilion with Liu Xiangwan's support, slightly drunk.Seeing this, Su Heng hurriedly stepped forward to support Li Yan, Li Yan smiled at Liu Xiangwan, and was immediately carried away by Su Heng.Liu Xiangwan stared at his back in a daze for a moment, then looked down at the black cloak on his body, a little redness appeared on his face.

"Your Majesty, General Liu came here once, but he seems to be leaving again unhappy." Su Heng said while supporting Li Yan.

"Is he really angry?" The drunkenness on Li Yan's face was completely gone at this moment, and there was an undisguised smile on his face.

Su Heng was puzzled and said, "If you don't want General Liu to be unhappy, why bother to provoke his younger brother?"

"Su Heng, what do you think of General Liu's younger brother?" Li Yan asked.

"The old slave can't tell. It's pleasing to the eye, but the old slave still likes General Liu, and it's more harmonious with His Majesty if he is free and easy." Su Heng said truthfully.

Li Yan smiled unconsciously when he heard the words, and said: "General Liu joined the army when he was young, and has been living in the barracks, spending less time with his family. I went to Liu's mansion that day and saw that his father didn't seem to be the same. I'm really looking forward to seeing General Liu's appearance, I think he still longs for family affection in his heart."

"Since this is the case, wouldn't it be better for General Liu and his younger brother, brother and friend, why bother, Your Majesty..."

"Sometimes the more people desire something, the easier it is to lose their calculations and be manipulated by others." Li Yan said: "Liu Ergongzi has a delicate heart, and General Liu thinks of brothers and sisters, but he may not .”

When Liu Xiangwan entered the palace that day, Li Yan felt something strange.It stands to reason that although Li Yan looked at Liu Linxi's face and gave him a jade card so that he could enter the palace at any time, but Liu Xiangwan, who knows how to measure, shouldn't just rely on Li Yan's words to enter the palace at will.After all, Li Yan promised him to enter the palace to enjoy the moon on the fifteenth day, and it seems that the fifteenth day is only two days away.

So Liu Xiangwan's act of entering the palace that day seemed very abrupt to Li Yan, as if he came here on purpose to tell Liu Linxi that Cheng Yuan joined the army.But that day at the poetry meeting, the quarrel between Cheng Yuan and Li Yan was watched by all the students present. Someone as smart as Liu Xiangwan would not know the consequences of telling Liu Linxi the news.

But he still came.

Li Yan did have some friction with Liu Linxi because of this matter.

If it were someone else, Li Yan could still think that the other party was stupid, but Liu Xiangwan was not stupid.

Since people who are not stupid do stupid things, it must be done on purpose.

Su Heng suddenly said: "So Your Majesty is deliberately separating the two brothers, so that General Liu will not trust Liu Xiangwan too much?"

"Don't speak so harshly." Li Yan glanced at Su Heng and said, "You don't have to serve me tonight, go to Jiyue Residence."

"Yes, this old slave must comfort General Liu well." Su Heng said.

"General Liu, I'll go back and comfort myself, so you don't have to worry about it." Li Yan said, "Go and light up the fire, and make a bowl of sweet soup to sober up in the dining room, and say that I'm afraid that Second Young Master Liu will not feel well after drinking, so I deliberately I'll send it to you."

Su Heng: ...
