Spring Courtyard Forbidden Pet

Ye Zhen was not loved in her previous life, nor was she favored by anyone. Seeing Li Xuan like this, she thought to herself that it was no wonder that the storybooks said that a tyrant could ignore the world with the help of a favored concubine.

It turns out that pillow talk really is real.

Ye Zhen was unsure at first, but after a long time, Li Xuan's cheeks were still red, and no matter what he said, he didn't dare to look her in the eye.

She couldn't help but feel a sense of superiority as she had won, and she had also avenged her previous shame! Let this bad guy always tease her!

The dishes that the nanny brought were also good. Li Xuan was embarrassed to eat with her at first, but later he couldn't resist the temptation and ate everything together with Ye Zhen.

Finally, drink a cup of tea she brewed herself, which is really wonderful and the most soothing.

To suppress the shock that had just been aroused to the point that he even forgot the Heart Cleansing Mantra.

Ye Zhen cleared the dishes and said, "It's getting late, Master, you should go to bed early."

Hearing that she was leaving, Li Xu'an looked reluctant, "Where do you live? Next door?"

Ye Zhen suddenly remembered that he was able to knock on her window from the back window of the small town inn. Although they had only said a few words, it felt like he had done something shameful.

She agreed vaguely, "Yeah."

Li Xuan paused, and suddenly said, "Today's fortune-telling in front of the state government is to make Yao Zhaoan restrain himself, and the socializing in the evening is also to see what other intentions the Yao family has."

"The prefecture is plotting against Baiyun Temple and me in order to move our ancestral graves. If I get angry, I will be accused of colluding with the Taoist temple. It will be more trouble than gain."

So Li Xuan felt that things might not be that simple.

But tonight it seemed that he was really overthinking it.

Ye Zhen heard this and said, "I accepted Madam Yao's gold because of this concern."

Li Xuan'an's eyes lit up and he wanted to hold her hand again, but the lesson he just learned was still there, so he endured it.

He just curled his lips and smiled, "From now on, I won't give them a chance to get close to me. You are the only one by my side."

"Don't be angry, okay?"

His voice was soft, like thick cotton sticking to Ye Zhen's heart. His long eyelashes cast a row of shadows on his eyelids, making him look obedient and pure.

Ye Zhen knew that she liked Li Xuan because he had always protected and helped her in everything. But at this moment, just looking at him made her feel like her blood was boiling.

It scared her, yet made her unable to stop.

She swallowed and tried to force out a relatively calm smile, "Second Master, do you know what I was thinking when I saw them seducing you today?"

Li Xuan still drooped his eyelashes and shook his head, looking as if he had made a mistake.

Ye Zhen bent down, lifted his chin with trembling fingers, locked the pair of watery phoenix eyes and the tear mole dyed red by the candlelight in her eyes, "I want to hide the Second Master, hide him where no one can find him."

Ye Zhen was not successful as a wife in her previous life, but she was quite successful as a mistress and a lady of honor. She was strong in everything and had an invisible possessiveness.

As soon as these words came out, Li Xuan'an's pupils trembled visibly, and then the corners of his mouth curved up beautifully, and his hands climbed onto her wrists, "Okay."

"If I don't obey, you can tie me up."

······

Ye Zhen and Li Xuan'an didn't know how they fell asleep last night! They were so excited about each other, but they could still say good night to each other calmly.

Anyway, when they woke up the next day, both of them were in good spirits, but they avoided each other's eyes intentionally or unintentionally.

Yao Zhaoan and his wife didn't care what happened between them. They just felt that the Imperial Master was very gentle in speaking to them today, which was completely different from yesterday.

Originally, they were worried that the weather was hot and that the Imperial Master would get impatient if they had to go to three or four places to look. Unexpectedly, Li Xuan not only did not turn his face away, but also carefully explained to them why this place could not be chosen. Yao Zhaoan was flattered.

Of course, the reason he attributed to was that Ye Zhen accepted the gold and appeased the national teacher.

It was already noon when they reached the last hill. It had rained yesterday and the mountain road was a little muddy. Ye Zhen's shoes and skirt were dirty, but she was only focused on holding an umbrella for Li Xuan.

Yao Zhaoan understood the situation and immediately called two servants to hold umbrellas for the two men. As expected, he received an appreciative look from the imperial teacher. Although Li Xuan had no expression on his face, it did not affect Yao Zhaoan's feeling.

Li Xuan stood facing the wind, her hairband fluttering, her back thin and straight. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, she just blocked the light shining on Ye Zhen.

Yao Zhaoan wiped his sweat and stepped forward, saying, "This is the last piece. The two directions are northeast and east. Do you think it's okay?"

Li Xuan first looked east for about a minute. Yao Zhaoan thought it would work this time, but he pointed to the northeast and said, "This is feasible."

If Li Xuan'an was as cold today as he was yesterday, Yao Zhao'an would have doubted him, but now he was convinced, "Thank you, Imperial Master!"

"Come here, put the things up there, make sure there are no mistakes."

Li Xuan glanced at him, and Yao Zhaoan immediately put on a grandson-like face, "You order."

"Lord Yao has good career prospects, it would be better if you go and pay your respects in person."

When Yao Zhaoan heard the Imperial Master say that he had good luck in his career, he immediately became excited. He thought that climbing two more hills would not be a problem! After thanking him profusely, he took the two nephews of the Yao family to the northeast.

Li Xuan came down slowly and took the umbrella from the attendant. "Go down. I will take a rest here."

The guard who was holding the umbrella for Ye Zhen was stunned for a moment, then he saw the Imperial Master glance at him and sit next to Ye Zhen, the two of them sharing an umbrella.

No matter how stupid he was, he knew he should stay away.

After everyone left, Li Xuan took out a towel and wiped the sweat off Ye Zhen's forehead, then fanned her with his sleeves, feeling happier than cooling himself.

There was no one around, so Ye Zhen joked, "Isn't it said that the Second Master can call the wind and rain? Why doesn't the Wind Master give you face today?"

Li Xuan said with a smile, "Lord Yao worked so hard to dig the hole, and I just filled it up with a gust of wind. It's not appropriate."

Ye Zhen couldn't help laughing.

"I saw that Second Master clearly thought that Zhengdong was more suitable, so why did he point to the Northeast? If the Yao family's business doesn't improve in the future, Second Master's reputation will be in danger."

Li Xuan said, "The older man in the Yao family broke a cup this morning, and I happened to see it. It looked like a certain hexagram. After some calculations, I realized that their business is not clean. If it continues for a long time, it will inevitably go astray. If I fulfill their wish, I will be committing a sin."

"I will have no place to complain when I get my retribution in the future."

Ye Zhen frowned. Is it that serious? No wonder many Taoist priests don't live long. If it weren't for Li Xuan'an's divination skills, he would have been helping the tyrant without even knowing it.

Li Xuan'an's eyes fell on the edge of her muddy shoes, and he said, "The old house of the Yao family is a Kan house, and the northeast is conducive to cultural prosperity. Yao Zhao'an is a living example. The male members of the Yao family are more suitable for studying and pursuing a career in officialdom. Having an official seal can prevent them from going astray to a certain extent."

In this way, even if the business does not improve, as long as the men in the family have a successful career, the Yao family will be happy.

Ye Zhen looked at Li Xuan'an with respect and sighed, no wonder there are so many Taoists, but he can be the national teacher and make Yao Zhaoan take the risk of being plotted against and ask him to take a look at Feng Shui.

She was quite shocked and was thinking about what to say when Li Xuan handed the umbrella handle to her, squatted down and folded the sweat towel into a small square that could fit on her fingertips, and then gently and carefully helped her wipe the stains on the edge of her shoes.

Ye Zhen subconsciously retracted her feet, "Second Master, no."

However, he had already predicted that Ye Zhen would dodge, so he grasped her ankle with his other hand neither lightly nor heavily. He didn't use much force, but Ye Zhen was stiff and unable to move.

"If the moisture soaks your shoes and socks, you'll catch a cold."

Ye Zhen forgot to breathe for a moment. In her previous life, the man whom she treated so well spent seven years to exhaust her body, but she never complained at all.

And now, she knew what it felt like to be loved.

Li Xuan, who was so high and mighty, actually squatted in front of her to help her clean her shoes because of a little mud. I'm afraid that in the whole Great Zhou Dynasty, no man who claimed to be so affectionate could do this.
