Married Thrice to Salted Fish

After nightfall, the emperor held a banquet in the Huae Tower for his ministers.The emperor sits in the main seat, the prime minister and the queen mother are on the left and right, and the officials and princes and nobles are on both sides of the hall.After the first cup of imperial wine was played, actors entered the arena, silk and bamboo were played, and beautiful women danced.This dance is as light as a frightened bird, graceful as a dragon swimming, and some people's eyes are burning and they are full of interest.The leading dancer was the maid carefully selected by the Empress Dowager and ordered to serve in Xingqing Palace.

The queen mother glanced at the emperor from time to time, and saw that the emperor was more interested in eating than in dancing with beautiful women.And the one who interested him the most was undoubtedly the Prime Minister sitting on his left.

Lin Qingyu was overwhelmed with alcohol, and after a few glasses of wine, he already felt slightly tipsy.He was already beautiful, but when he was slightly drunk, the coolness faded away, and his face became more handsome and radiant, with long eyelashes drooping, light red cheeks, and a little spring at the end of his eyes for no reason.

The most terrible thing is that he is wearing a first-grade crane official uniform.Such a great beauty was actually the prime minister of one dynasty.

Not only the emperor, but many officials couldn't help but look at the prime minister frequently, especially Li Chan, the servant of the Ministry of war, who hardly took his eyes off the prime minister.These people probably think that the high-ranking prime minister is more worthy of admiration than an actor or something.

The Empress Dowager was in a delicate mood, she smiled, and said: "Your Majesty's illness can be cured so quickly, Qing Yu, you deserve a lot of credit."

Lin Qingyu, who had been drinking, reacted a little slower: "The queen mother has said it before, this is what I should do."

"The Ai family is no longer polite to you. After all, we are all one family. If Wancheng is still here, the emperor will still call you 'cousin'."

Lin Qingyu smiled slightly: "Let him call."

Before the queen mother could react, Jiang Xing obediently called out, "Biao sister-in-law."

The queen mother was a little confused.Sitting not far away, Shen Huaizhi, who had excellent hearing, almost spit out a sip of wine when he heard this sound.

After the song ended, Lin Qingyu and Jiang Xing left the banquet together under the Empress Dowager's complicated gaze, and returned to Xingqing Palace.

Both of them were two or three points drunk.Jiang Xing sent the palace servants away, sat down on the dragon bed, and angrily tore off the buttons on the dragon robe: "It's finally over."

Lin Qingyu asked him: "Why did you send Xiaosongzi away? He left, who will serve you to bed."

"I'll just serve myself." Jiang Xing lay on the bed, resting his chest on one hand, and looked at Lin Qingyu with a smile, "Your cousin is so pretty, everyone was looking at you during the dinner."

Lin Qingyu frowned: "Do they dare?"

"They didn't dare, so they were secretly looking at you." Jiang Xing laughed, "Only I can look at you openly."

Lin Qingyu sat down beside the bed: "Don't lie on the bed, go take a shower and change clothes first."

"I'm so tired, I don't want to move."

Lin Qingyu was puzzled: "You just stood for a while today, why are you tired?"

"It has nothing to do with standing and sitting. Some people, sitting for four or five hours a day, are still as tired as dogs. Socializing, holding up the scene, and putting on a show are all exhausting things."

"Then you should rest early."

Jiang Xing was very conflicted: "But I want it."

Lin Qingyu was speechless for a while: "You said you were tired again."

Jiang Xing had a flash of inspiration, and joked: "We can... do it with our thoughts. Pretend that we have done something, so that we won't be tired, and we can solve our desires. What do you think?"

Lin Qingyu: "..."

Jiang Xing closed his eyes, and said while thinking: "I sat up, raised my hand, untied the jade belt around your waist, first took off the prime minister's official uniform on your body, and then..."

Lin Qingyu suppressed a smile: "Okay, okay. I'm here."

"You're here now?" Jiang Xing said in surprise, "I just took off your official uniform, and I haven't..."

"Well, I'll be fast." Lin Qingyu perfunctory, "Go to bed quickly when you arrive, and you have to go to bed early tomorrow."

"But I don't think it's enough." Jiang Xingyou complained, "I'm not feeling good at all."

Lin Qingyu laughed: "You are the one who is too tired, and I am not unwilling. Who are you to blame."

Jiang Xing struggled again and again, and said, "Forget it, just get tired if you are tired." After saying that, he sat up resignedly, with his hands resting on Lin Qingyu's sides, "I can't help it."

Lin Qingyu blocked his approaching lips, and said coolly: "If you are so reluctant, I will feel like I am forcing you."

Jiang Xing smiled and said, "No reluctance, I just hope you can be more proactive."

Lin Qingyu sneered: "I'm not active enough? Back then..."

Jiang Xing knew that Lin Qingyu was going to bring up the matter of rejecting him when he was still Gu Fuzhou.He decided to speak first to prevent Lin Qingyu from revealing the old account.

The aroma of the wine lingered between the lips and teeth, making people more intoxicated.

After kissing for a while, Lin Qingyu pushed Jiang Xing away, turned his head, and seemed a little shy: "I ordered someone to prepare a hot spring bath. Do you want to take a dip? Treat it as a hangover."

Jiang Xing was both surprised and happy, and his exhaustion was swept away: "It turns out that baby is so good at playing..."

Lin Qingyu lost expression for a moment: "Are you going or not?"

"Go," Jiang Xing rolled over and got off the bed, his movements were clean and neat, "I can't wait to run as fast as I can."

The imperial palace is no more than a palace. There is no natural warm bath. It can only rely on people to dig a bath in the bath room and fill it with hot water.When the two arrived, everything was ready.The water vapor is dense, hazy like a fairyland, and bright red petals are still floating on the surface of the pool.

Listening to Jiang Xing making fun of him for playing, Lin Qingyu asked Xiao Songzi: "Who told you to put flowers?"

Xiao Songzi wondered: "You didn't say no to it. The slaves all come in the style of the imperial concubine's bath." He originally wanted to follow the queen's rules, but felt that it was too much, so he changed to the imperial concubine's rules.

"I think it's good." Jiang Xing patted Xiao Songzi's shoulder, "I'll reward you later, let's go down first."

After Xiaosongzi left, Jiang Xing first tested the water temperature with his hands, and after confirming that it was suitable, he said, "Concubine Lin, please first?"

Lin Qingyu raised his eyebrows: "It turns out that in the heart of the emperor, I am just a noble concubine."

"I'm a stereotype and I'll say it first, but queens are always dignified and dignified, while noble concubines are charming and charming. Tonight, Aiqing will be my Lin Guifei first, and tomorrow morning, she will be my Lin Queen again. When will you come back?" Be gentle, that's Concubine Lin Shu..."

...It really is a stereotype.Lin Qingyu untied the crown, took off the official robe, leaving only a layer of inner clothing, and stepped into the pool slowly.He didn't hear the sound of Jiang Xing following up, but when he turned around, he saw that the other party was still standing there, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Xing said in disbelief, "Aren't you too tired to have fun? Soaking in hot springs and wearing clothes."

Lin Qingyu said: "You have to wear clothes in the hot springs. Don't tell me that in your hometown, people don't wear clothes in the hot springs?"

Jiang Xing said without hesitation, "No."

Lin Qingyu was slightly surprised, and his impression of Jiang Xing's hometown changed somewhat.He used to think that most of the people in Jiang Xing's hometown were reserved and introverted, but he didn't expect that they also had an unrestrained side.

Jiang Xing followed the tradition of his hometown and got into the water topless.The water in the pool was not deep, just reaching the position of his chest.He sat down opposite Lin Qingyu, soaked his whole body in warm water, and most of the alcohol disappeared.

"Qing Yu, look at me." Jiang Xing took a deep breath and sank into the water, leaving only a tuft of short hair on top of his head.

Lin Qingyu said, "Jiang Xing?"

Suddenly, water splashed in all directions, and the boy emerged from the water, wiped his face casually, and said, "I was just playing a game of holding my breath. I used to be able to hold my breath for a long time."

Jiang Xing's short hair has been kept for half a year, and it has reached the collarbone. It looks like a puppy when he flicks it, and water drops splash on Lin Qingyu.Lin Qingyu couldn't help blocking it with his hands: "How boring you used to be."

Jiang Xing squinted his watery eyes, and said casually: "I used to be... quite boring, and I didn't have any particular interest in doing anything. So I want to thank you for letting me find something that I can never tire of."

Lin Qingyu asked: "What can make you enjoy it so much?" Even when it comes to love, Jiang Xing, like him, can only say that he likes it, but he is not obsessed.

"Liking you is the only thing I don't feel tired about."

Just as Lin Qingyu was about to be moved, he heard Jiang Xing say, "Oh, besides sleeping."

"..."

Jiang Xing confessed again: "Liking you and sleeping are the only two things that I don't feel tired no matter how long I do."

Lin Qingyu was angry and funny: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Jiang Xing probably felt that his confession was a bit ridiculous, he lowered his head and chuckled, paddling his hands in the water, and sighed, "Qingyu, I'm an adult again."

Lin Qingyu smiled: "Congratulations."

Jiang Xing saw that Lin Qingyu was in a good mood, so he couldn't help but asked desperately, "Aren't you jealous that the Queen Mother asked that court lady to lead the dance today?"

Lin Qingyu raised her eyes: "The emperor thinks who looks better, me or her."

"Of course it's you."

"That's right." Lin Qingyu exhaled hot breath, "If the emperor let me not come to sleep, and go to covet others, wouldn't it be an eye disease?"

Lin Qingyu's face was flushed red by the water vapor. It was an unusual and shocking beauty—it even had a dangerous taste, almost like a monster.

Jiang Xing watched for a long time, and his voice became low: "I just like how confident you are."

The water splashed, and Lin Qingyu saw Jiang Xing walking towards him.Water droplets slipped from the hair on the young man's forehead, fresh and agile, full of infinite vitality.

Then, he was picked up by the boy.

When pushed to the edge of the pool, Lin Qingyu put his arm around Jiang Xing's neck and asked, "Aren't you tired? Can you still hug me?"

Jiang Xing thought for a while, and half-truthfully said, "I'm exhausted, but I'm willing to work hard."
