Chapter 16 - Self-inflicted Evil

The cool and fine crushed ice mixed with the sweet and sour fresh fruit entrance easily dispels the last trace of summer heat.Xun Yi bent his lips: "It tastes good."

Fu Ning laughed and said, "If your son likes it, you can ask the cook in the house to prepare it. It's not difficult to do."

"How to do it?" Xun Yi looked at him sideways, as if he was really interested.

"It's actually quite simple. You just need to prepare crushed ice at home, and then call the cook..." Fu Ning followed the idea of ​​"many acquaintances are better than many enemies", and the method of making crispy mountain After saying it again, Xun Yi looked at him seriously, and asked a few questions from time to time, as if he was very caring.

It was a little different from Xun Yi in Fu Ning's mind.

In Fu Ning's cognition, this incomprehensible prince seems to be out of step with everything in the world. He shouldn't care about such trivial matters as diet, but he didn't expect him to ask such detailed questions. Appearance?

Perhaps aware of Funing's doubts, Xun Yi said: "I have an elder I know very well who lives in the suburbs of Beijing. I want to take him there, maybe the summer will be easier."

Fu Ning was a little surprised: "The elders of His Royal Highness?" But Xun Yi's elders either live in the palace or far away in the frontier fiefdom. I don't know which one is so chic and lives in the suburbs of Beijing. "

Xun Yi said softly, "It's not the elders of my immediate family, but the elders of a friend of mine in the past. It's just that he hasn't been in the capital for a long time."

Fu Ning is not a child who doesn't know the importance, so naturally he would not ask why his friend is not in the capital anymore, he just smiled and said: "His Royal Highness is really a person who values ​​love."

Xun Yi chuckled, didn't continue on this topic, and asked instead: "You don't go home for dinner today, and your uncle and aunt agree, are you afraid that others will spoil you?"

Fu Ning laughed: "My uncle is only worried that I will lead others to ruin."

The two talked about unimportant topics for a while, and Xun Yi suddenly asked: "Tomorrow you—"

As soon as he spoke, there was an angry shout from the corridor: "Ziyu! Where are you!" The voice was so penetrating that it directly covered Xun Yi's voice.

Fu Ning was taken aback by the voice, and didn't notice Xun Yi: "Brother Yuansi has such a voice, it's a pity not to go to the gate of the Guozi Academy to call for being late." He stood up as he spoke, and said with a smile, "Farewell!" ", then went outside.

He walked briskly, and before Xun Yi could say anything, Funing's figure had disappeared.

In order to block the noise outside, this indoor courtyard not only strengthened the wall facing the street, but also built an exquisite "mountain and flowing water" scene beside the wall. Bamboo pipes were used to divert water from the top of the mountain. It's a pity that the laughter on the street can't stop the noise in the room.

Funing seemed to have gone far away, and the specific voice could not be heard clearly. He could only hear the words "Mo Noisy" and "Friends" from the corridor, but he couldn't hear the whole picture, but the familiarity and warmth in the tone was never heard. It has never been shown in front of Xun Yi.

Xun Yi looked down at the crispy mountain on the table, the small white porcelain cup was still on the rattan table, and the seasonal melons and fruits were brightly colored, but they melted a bit when they were placed on the crushed ice.

Slowly scooped a spoonful into his mouth, the cold taste was still there, but Xun Yi suddenly felt a little restless.

Maybe it's because he's so likable.Not only to be liked by himself, but also to be liked by others, and there are others who want to get close to him, but for Funing, it seems that getting close to others is always easier than getting close to him.

"Knock knock!"

Xun Yi raised his head and saw a young man in brown clothes leaning against the door of the room at the corner and looking at him with a smile, his expression was even worse: "The third prince is not enjoying the warmth and fragrance in the private room, what is he doing out?"

The third prince smiled brightly: "Come out to see you are deflated." While laughing, he walked forward and sat down on the stool opposite Xun Yi: "I said, why do you come out and breathe by the side? When I came back, it turned out that I was hooked by a vixen."

He stretched out a finger and pointed in the direction of the corridor: "The one who just passed by is the son of the prefect of Yuezhou that you have been thinking about? He was born extremely beautiful."

Xun Yi put the spoon down, and looked at the third prince with displeasure: "He is not a vixen, nor is he someone who can be played with casually. Don't talk about him like that, and don't think about him."

The third prince smiled and shook his head: "I still like girls who are fragrant and soft, and men are not in my consideration; moreover, even if I am really interested in men, I will not touch your sweetheart."

Xun Yi didn't like his frivolous tone, and subconsciously retorted: "He's not—"

Seeing that he suddenly stopped, the third prince smiled even more happily: "It's not what? Don't tell me you—" He paused halfway through his words, and took a breath after a while, "You—you— —, don’t you think that you simply want to be friends with others?”

Xun Yi just wanted to refute what he said about "sweetheart", but when he heard him say "just be friends", he didn't want to admit it, so he didn't answer his words.

The third prince stopped teasing now, stared at Xun Yi carefully for a while, and then sighed suddenly: "You are such a smart person, you can see through other people's affairs, how come you can't handle it when it comes to yourself?" Cleared?"

Xun Yi looked at the bowl of Sushan, his tone was as cold as the crushed ice in the bowl: "You better go back to your room, it's too late to go back carefully, Wen Xiangnuanyu wants to kill you."

The third prince directly ignored the sarcasm in his tone, moved the stool without winking, and sat next to Xun Yi: "Don't be annoyed, just listen to the third brother talk to you carefully."

"You don't need to tell me."

"No! You must listen to me!" The third prince grabbed Xun Yi's sleeve and was very sad: "You don't understand, this is actually—"

Xun Yi shook off his sleeves, stood up and looked at him coldly: "I understand."

The third prince thought he was talking angry, stood up after him, and wanted to continue, but Xun Yi interrupted him directly, and said in a flat tone: "I understand, I know that I treat him differently, but so what. "

The third prince frowned, and his tone was very puzzled: "Since you know, why don't you take this opportunity to get closer to him?"

"When he came to Beijing, I picked him up a few times. Now he can talk to me easily. I can't be abrupt anymore."

The third prince:......

His tone was full of disbelief: "Yes, I heard about this last time. I also want to ask you, you miss people every day, what do you mean by finding fault when you meet? Are you afraid that people won't hate you?"

Xun Yi:......

He pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "Because I'm naive."

It was a bit late when he got the news that day, and when he rushed there, he happened to see Fu Ning pointing a knife at Feng Yu, fearing that he would really kill that idiot and cause a fatal disaster, so he did it; after he walked in, he saw Feng Yu standing there. When he got up, he stuck to Funing's side, feeling restless and impulsive.

That's why he pressed on every step of the way, and found fault in such a disrespectful way, which made him separate from himself.

The third prince looked at him, hesitated to speak, and sighed: "If I knew this, the first time I went to the brothel, I should have dragged you to death, so that you could learn what is the correct way to treat others."

Xun Yi didn't answer, he just picked up the mountain of crisps on the table, dug another spoonful and put it in his mouth.

Only then did the third prince notice Sushan in front of him, and raised his eyebrows: "Did someone send you?"

"Ah."

The third prince raised his eyebrows: "There is a show!"

"It's no use." Xun Yi said flatly, "He's just used to treating people like this. If it's someone else..." He frowned and didn't say any more.

The third prince looked at him, and suddenly sighed: "Look at you, it makes you feel bad to think of someone giving someone a cup of crushed ice. If you keep slowing down like this, wait until he talks about marriage in two years." By the way, a daughter-in-law of the right family, are you going to jump into the vinegar lake and drown yourself?"

Xun Yi was silent for a moment: "That's why I thought, to be friends with him first."

Even if the folk customs in the capital are open, falling in love with men is not something that everyone can accept.He only found fault with Fu Ning half a month ago. As soon as the relationship eased these few days, he directly said that he liked him. He was afraid that the end would not be that he got what he wanted, but that he would not even have a chance to start as a friend.

Seeing his frowning look, the third prince was suddenly happy: "I told you to be naive, you should be worried, should you!"?
