Inscription of Different Cases

Han Lang woke up smelling the aroma of food, and he was stunned for a while before he remembered that there was another person living in the house.After dressing and washing, he yawned and walked into the hall. Steaming sesame pancakes were already placed on the dining table. He Yijiu stood shirtless in the hazy morning sunlight, humming a ditty in the wine shop, and pouring white porridge out of the porcelain. Scoop it out of the bowl, stir it a little and put it on the table.

"Don't dress well, it's vulgar." Han Lang glanced at him and said helplessly.

"Whatever, it's not too cold," He Yijiu said with a smile, pointing to the breakfast on the table, "It's all bought outside. How long have you kept the firewood in your house? It's all damp and unusable."

Han Lang was a little embarrassed, he seldom worried about those problems, and always made do with it: "It's been a long time since I started a business, I don't have that time."

The two sat down facing each other, He Yijiu handed him a bowl of porridge, and took a few mouthfuls of it himself, his face was covered with rice grains.Seeing this, Han Lang hooked the corners of his mouth, and after being glanced at by the other party, he lowered his head and drank the porridge silently.

He Yijiu said after a while: "I'll call someone some other day and bring you some better charcoal fire."

Han Lang was taken aback for a moment, such kindness always caught him off guard: "No need, I just buy it myself."

He Yijiu bit the cake until it creaked, and pointed at him with his chopsticks, "You're welcome, it's not a big deal."

Han Lang fell silent, and he didn't raise his head until He Yijiu's breakfast was almost finished, his deep gaze stayed on the other's face for a long time: "I'll ask you a question."

"how?"

"Do you do this often?

He Yijiu looked puzzled: "Huh?"

Han Lang felt so tight in his chest that he didn't even know what he wanted to say: "That is, live in someone else's house and deliver medicine to others... Then, it will be like this now."

He Yijiu's face was still calm, he picked up a piece of cake and stuffed it into his mouth, his cheeks swelled up instantly, making his voice muffled: "No, it's only for you."

"Uh..." Han Lang was a little dazed by his righteousness, and felt like he was thinking too much, "Why?

He Yijiu didn't answer.Suddenly someone knocked on the copper ring on the door, Han Lang had no choice but to get up and go to open the door, Lin Xiaosheng was standing outside, as soon as he saw Han Lang, something jumped out of his cargo box, and then quickly climbed up Han Lang's shoulder.

This icy cold touch, is it not a skink or who?

"What's wrong?" Han Lang asked.

"Are you going to Beijing today?" Lin Xiaosheng still spoke in such a bland manner, "He insists on going with you."

Han Lang touched Skink's head: "Why?"

"I feel it, the ermine is in the east!" Skink said, wagging his tail, "Are you going to the east, I will go too!"

The capital is indeed in the east, but does he still have to bring such a burden?Han Lang turned around and looked at his luggage, but it could be hidden in it.Skink seemed to see his hesitation, rubbed his chin pitifully on the back of his hand, and said softly, "I don't run around, but I really want to go."

Han Lang sighed, he just couldn't resist other people's begging: "I know, I know."

It was getting dark now, he went back and said goodbye to He Yijiu, hurried to the post station to hire a horse, and then went straight out of the city gate.Skink hid in his rucksack, and he was quiet all the way, occasionally poking his head out to breathe, he tried his best to avoid other people's sight.

Early spring was over, but the temperature in the morning was very cold. Han Lang wrapped his cloak tightly and put on his hat, but he still shivered three times from the blow.This road is an official road, and there are many convoys coming and going, so there is no risk.So he also walked very easily, riding fast, and by noon, he had already run almost one-third of the distance.

It seems that we can arrive late at night, but it's too late and the gate of the city has been closed. It is estimated that we need to find a place to stay in a small village outside the city, and then enter the city the next day.

After running for more than ten miles in this way, Han Lang found a river bank and stopped to let the horse rest for a while. He unfolded his luggage, took out the leftover pancakes from the morning, and stuffed a piece into his stomach.

The skink also crawled out and rolled on the green grass.Han Lang asked him if he was hungry, and he said no, he ate a lot of candy in the morning.

It was the first time I saw someone who ate sugar as a meal. Although monsters don't have to be taboo so much, is there something wrong with the way Lin Xiaosheng feeds him?

The afternoon sun was just right, and the breeze blew across the green treetops, making a whirring sound.One person and one demon sat on the river bank for half an hour, and they didn't start their journey again until Han Lang had almost rested.He had just brought back the horse that was grazing, when he suddenly heard someone calling him not far behind, and when he turned around, Yao Xinlian was standing beside a carriage, waving at him.

"What a coincidence! We meet again!"

Han Lang greeted her, and seeing her running down in a hurry, he patted Han Lang on the shoulder unceremoniously: "Where are you going?"

"The capital." Han Lang said with an embarrassed smile, thinking that he should really get used to this woman's unrestrained personality.

"That's even more coincidental, I'm going back too, shall we go together?" Yao Xinlian said with a grin.At this time, her servant girl staggered down the river embankment with a paper umbrella, panting and said: "Miss, miss, the sun is hot, don't bask in it."

"Go, go, you have to take an umbrella and go there by yourself, what's wrong with basking in the sun for a while?" Yao Xinlian sneered and drove the maid away.Sensing Han Lang's puzzled gaze, she lowered her voice and secretly said to Han Lang, "It's someone my seventh uncle sent here to spy on me secretly. Tsk, I'm in trouble."

"Surveillance?" Many strange thoughts flashed through Han Lang's mind. Why did he want to monitor a woman?Yao Xinlian seemed to see what he was thinking, she smiled slightly and said, "I'll tell you later, let's go, we'll go the same way."

Han Lang was a little hesitant, after all he didn't want to get too close to a woman of the same age, so as not to be gossiped by others and mislead her innocence.But Yao Xinlian obviously didn't think so, and she didn't give him time to think about it, so she grabbed the rein from his hand and led the horse forward.Han Lang had no choice but to say "Hey" and quickly catch up. At this moment, the skink behind him moved. He quickly pressed his bag and said softly, "Hush -- don't move now."

Yao Xinlian turned her head and urged: "Hurry up, you can't walk anymore?"

No man wants to be ridiculed by a woman, Han Lang immediately chased after her, the maid fell behind, and only now followed, Yao Xinlian had already taken off the reins of the carriage, turned around and said to the maid: "You guys Take the carriage, I want to ride a horse."

"But Miss is a woman—"

"Stop rambling, what's the matter with the girl? I can do whatever I like, and you don't need to ramble," Yao Xinlian opened her mouth to reprimand, quickly got on her horse, turned to Han Lang, and said, "You get on your horse too, and you can chat on the road."

There is always an overwhelming momentum in her words, making it difficult for people to disobey her instructions.Han Lang didn't hesitate anymore, he rode his horse and walked ahead with Yao Xinlian.Pity the servant girl, the carriage was already moving slowly, but now Yao Xinlian took another horse away, and quickly fell behind.The servant girl was still calling "Miss, slow down" at first, but as the distance increased, the voice gradually became inaudible.

Han Lang turned his head several times, but Yao Xinlian was still running fast, with no intention of slowing down. "It's not so good, is it?" He couldn't help asking, "It's okay, it's not like they don't know where I'm going," Yao Xinlian smiled heartlessly, "By the way, what are you going to do in the capital?"

Han Lang told the truth.

"County Qian? Ah, just that old man," Yao Xinlian said bluntly, "I know Mr. Yan, calligraphy and painting, I think it's bribery, right?"

What she said was so direct that Han Lang didn't know how to answer.But she has always been familiar with herself, and now she will talk about it alone, saying that she has seen a lot of such things before: "First collude with the boss of the antique shop, and then the boss goes to the big official to spend a lot of money to buy calligraphy and paintings. He gave the painting to the person who hired him. Finally, the person came to visit and sent the painting back as a gift. After performing a play, the money was quietly delivered to the high official. This kind of thing I've seen quite a few, and my dad even made a joke of it, they all turned a blind eye and pretended they didn't see it."

Han Lang felt something was wrong when he heard it, and he became more and more vigilant.This woman knows too much, and she is too defenseless. Can these things be casually talked about?Unless...unless she has nothing to fear at all, no one will catch her and punish her for spreading rumors.

"Who the hell are you?"

Yao Xinlian hesitated for a moment, turned her beautiful eyes twice, and burst out laughing: "Fool, you don't know yet? I am the daughter of King Zhao, the niece of the current emperor." ,"

"You are the princess?" Han Lang almost choked and coughed, and felt the skink in the bag move, so he hurriedly held him down.

"Hey, don't yell like that, I'm out of clothes," Yao Xinlian said with a smile, "By the way, what kind of treasure is in your bag? You always cover it."

Han Lang quickly waved his hands: "It's nothing, nothing."

Fortunately, the skink calmed down, and Yao Xinlian didn't ask any more questions, and continued: "Don't be nervous, I don't like to use power to oppress people, and what's more..."

"and?"

As soon as she pressed the saddle, she suddenly leaned over in Han Lang's direction, and Han Lang backed away in fright, seeing her as if she was playing, and she laughed loudly: "And I've taken a fancy to you, what do you think?"

Han Lang blurted out: "But I didn't like you!"

Yao Xinlian was taken aback for a moment, and Han Lang realized that what he said was too aggressive and must have hurt the girl's heart, and he hurriedly explained in a panic: "You and I have very different status, and we don't understand each other, let alone girls When a child chooses a husband-in-law, he still needs to think carefully and not be impulsive."

Yao Xinlian hit the nail on the head: "Why didn't you mention your sweetheart last time?"

Han Lang yelled in his heart, how could he forget the excuse he made last time.This time Yao Xinlian saw the clue, and said with a smile: "I see, I thought you really liked men, but you just don't like me?"

"I..." Thinking of He Yijiu, Han Lang's heart became more confused, and he faltered even more when he spoke.

"Don't be afraid, I have plenty of solutions," she winked playfully at Han Lang, "Let's wait and see?"

I don't want to wait and see with you!Han Lang screamed wildly in his heart, but he couldn't say anything.

For the rest of the journey, his mind was in a mess, and for some reason he was only thinking about He Yijiu. The words "like men" were too harsh, and he began to reflect on his recent behavior, feeling that he really had a tendency in this direction.He Yijiu is not taboo between men and women, he knows this, but as for himself, he treats him...

How to do?

He was thinking wildly, but Yao Xinlian kept talking to him, until the topic gradually turned to Yao Qi, it was regarded as distracting his attention.Yao Xinlian said that Yao Qi's real identity is the current His Excellency Xian Wang, which Han Lang had already guessed after knowing the identity of the princess.She also said that the virtuous king only likes to watch flowers and feed the birds, go outing in the green, and does not fight or grab power. He seems to be satisfied with a leisurely and peaceful life, acting like an idle prince.

"This time I came out to play. I was on my way back to Beijing. My father didn't have time to pick me up, but he ran here. It's very annoying." Looking forward, "By the way, my father has always been ambivalent about him, always saying that he is secretly planning something. Ah, don't tell anyone else about this, or you will be punished."

Han Lang nodded to show that he understood, he still had some sense of propriety, but complained in his heart since Yao Xinlian knew it all, why did he tell himself?

To be honest, whether Yao Qi or Yao Xinlian, he dare not trust 100% at all.As an ordinary county captain, what is so precious to them?If it is said that Yao Xinlian only admires and so-called admiration for her, what about Yao Qi?

The more Han Lang thought about it, the more he felt his back sweating. He is not the kind of person who is obsessed with power and only wants to seek high positions. This kind of courtship will only make him feel uneasy.After knowing the identities of the two, this anxiety intensified.Speaking of which, it was precisely because of Yao Qi's status as the prince that County Magistrate Qian looked at him that way.Han Lang sighed in his heart that he was so slow, he never thought about it.

Yao Xinlian seems to be a straightforward person, should she directly put forward her ideas?Han Lang gripped the reins tightly, glanced at the people around him, and silently dismissed the idea.In any case, it's better to be careful, playing dumb is the most suitable strategy, Han Lang wished that the other party would underestimate him earlier, and give up the idea of ​​wooing him as soon as possible.

When the two arrived in the capital, it was dark at night, but Han Lang did not follow the original plan to stay nearby.Thanks to Yao Xinlian's status as princess, the guards made an exception and let her go without even checking.Originally, Yao Xinlian wanted to invite Han Lang back to the mansion, but this time Han Lang refused to say anything, but fortunately, the other party did not force her.The two parted at the gate of the city, Yao Xinlian went back to Dongshi's home, and Han Lang went to Xishi to find a place to live.It was also because of his luck that he found an inn that was about to close. After explaining his intentions, the other party still let him in.

Skink had long been panicked with boredom, and now he finally got out of his bag, yelling that he was hungry.Han Lang had no choice but to ask Xiaoer to bring him a bowl of lotus seed soup. Although he finished eating, he complained that there was no jelly beans made by the ghost.

"Who's the bastard?"

"It's that cold-faced weirdo," Skink muttered, "I'm going to eat him."

Han Lang said helplessly: "Okay, I got it. Children can't eat too much sugar, or their teeth will rot."

Skink let out an "oh", apparently not listening.After a while, he said he was going to find the ermine, so he got out of the window and disappeared in an instant.Han Lang ignored him, spread the quilt by himself, lay down and fell asleep.
