Spring Courtyard Forbidden Pet

Ye Zhen was caught red-handed, and the expression on her face was the evidence.

Her hand trembled and she lost control of the teacup. The moment the tea spilled out, Li Xuan'an reached out from the window to block the not-so-hot tea for her.

Ye Zhen stood up and hurriedly wiped his hands with her sleeves, "Is it hot?"

Li Xuan'an's deep eyes were filled with seriousness, and his wet fingers hooked around her wrist, "You're really thinking about someone else."

"Who made the Second Miss so distracted?"

"General Dong?"

Ye Zhen laughed, "No. I was just thinking about Jing Lan and didn't pay attention for a moment..."

Li Xuan insisted, "If you really miss Jing Lan, why were you so nervous when I called you?"

Ye Zhen couldn't answer and tried to get away with it by forcing a smile.

Seeing this, Li Xuan jumped in with one hand holding the window.

Ye Zhen was startled, but quickly calmed down. Seeing him approaching her, she took a deep breath and asked, "Second Master...are you jealous?"

Li Xuan paused, the gloom on his face was instantly dispelled by her words. Just when Ye Zhen thought she had succeeded, he suddenly bent down again and said, "You even specially asked someone to send him bayberries."

Ye Zhen blinked innocently, "I want to give Ah Yuan a taste, so I have to let General Dong bring it into the palace."

Li Xu'an was even more depressed after hearing this. He thought to himself that he was not dead yet, so why did he need help from others to send something to the palace? To be precise, anyone could help, except Dong Zhang!

He had to use some tricks to transfer that guy out of the imperial city. He was not allowed to return to Beijing within a month. When he came back from the Northern Camp, he would ask the emperor for permission to marry him.

Wouldn't Ye Zhen's contact make that boy more excited?

Li Xuan'an's voice was slightly deep. "Isn't it just to send some bayberries to Miss Dong? Can't I serve the Second Miss anymore? I want you to find someone to make a special trip."

Seeing him looking for trouble, Ye Zhen knew that he was jealous. This may be because he had been dealing with the sect's accumulated affairs all day and was in a bad mood.

She softened her attitude and cast her watery eyes on Li Xuan, "I was wrong. Next time, I won't look for General Dong, but for Second Master. No, I will look for Second Master from now on, okay?"

Li Xu'an looked fierce, but in fact he couldn't stand Ye Zhen's soft words, and he couldn't hold it back. But he felt unwilling to let it go like this, so he pulled his sleeve back from her hand, snorted and turned his face away.

Ye Zhen pursed her lips, not daring to laugh out loud. She walked around to him and pulled his sleeves again, shaking them. "Okay?"

Li Xuan tried hard to suppress the corners of his mouth, and finally surrendered after a long while, "Yeah."

Ye Zhen thought to herself, this guy is too easy to appease.

But she did not dare to be proud. She took him to sit down and asked him about his health, whether his wound hurt, whether he was tired, and whether he had eaten.

Li Xuan had never been cared for so much before. Usually, Yun Zhui and San Qiao would ask him a few questions, but they would still look at his expression and not dare to say more. Seeing stars in Ye Zhen's eyes, he felt that his scarred heart in the dark was slowly, slowly moving towards the light.

Seeing that he suddenly stopped talking, Ye Zhen thought he was not feeling well, "What's wrong? Did the wound get hurt?"

"Send someone to invite Master Fuji?"

“You… ugh!”

Before she could finish her words, her vision went dark, and Li Xuan suddenly leaned down and gave her a light kiss on the lips. Ye Zhen was instantly confused and looked at him at a loss.

Li Xuan was happy now, "No need to trouble Uncle Master, everything is fine now."

Ye Zhen touched her lips belatedly and her cheeks suddenly turned red.

Li Xuan admired it with satisfaction, and then said, "The food in the sect is not delicious, I will take you to eat something good."

"Let Liuxia bring you a cloak."

"Walk."

At night, the sect was brightly lit, and there were not so many Taoists coming and going. Li Xuan dragged Ye Zhen all the way from Shanyuan Hall to the back mountain. He held Ye Zhen in his arms and used his wide sleeves to block the water for her. The wooden plank bridge under their feet was wet by the waterfall and was slippery and shaky.

Under normal circumstances, Ye Zhen would be scared to death and would definitely not continue. But now, because the person she was hugging was Li Xuan, she did not feel scared at all. Instead, she felt that everything in the mountains was very interesting.

"Hold my waist."

Li Xuan's voice was suppressed by the waterfall, and his rising and falling chest was hot. Ye Zhen vaguely heard the sound of his heartbeat.

She hugged Li Xuan'an's waist tightly with both hands, holding his clothes sensibly, instead of pinching his flesh unconsciously like last time.

There is a different world behind the waterfall.

Yun Zhui was already grilling fish, and the whole cave was filled with the fragrance.

He raised his eyes and saw his master and Miss Ye coming in with the fish in arms. He lowered his head quickly, wishing he could stare a hole in the fish!

But I thought it was a good opportunity, the fish was cooked immediately.

Well, I’ll give this one to the master to please the Second Miss, and I’ll have to go out and catch another one to roast for Liuxia to eat.

By the way, where is Liuxia?

Without waiting for him to speak, Li Xuan pulled Ye Zhen to the fire to dry clothes, "Liuxia doesn't dare to come over, you go over and roast another one for her."

Yun Zhui was stunned. Second Master’s arrangement was really great!

He said respectfully, "I will go right away."

After Yun Zhui left, only Li Xuan and Ye Zhen were left in the cave.

She saw that there were stone tables and chairs and many seasonings here, so she knew that people came here often.

Li Xuan tore off the largest piece of meat from the fish's belly and fed it to her. "Yun Zhui's cooking skills are pretty good. At least he's considered top-notch in this bland sect."

Ye Zhen didn't refuse. She felt hungry just by smelling the meat.

"I guess I must have grilled it for Second Master many times before." She chewed the fish and smiled at Li Xuan.

He carefully picked out the fish bones, apparently intending to leave all the meat for Ye Zhen to eat. "Everything about the Qing Sect is good, except the food is too bad. I have been training outside for many years, or stayed in the capital for a long time, because I don't want to eat boiled cabbage and tofu every day in the sect."

Seeing that his face turned pale when he mentioned the words "cabbage and tofu", Ye Zhen couldn't help laughing.

"The Qing clan is a wealthy family with the support of the imperial court. How can they not afford to hire a better chef?"

Then, Li Xuan'an's explanation made Ye Zhen laugh and cry. He said, "It's not that we can't afford it, it's just that there are too many elders in the sect. The mountain is cool all year round, and we have to cover ourselves with thick blankets when we sleep at night. If we stay there for a long time, the elders will have cold bodies and poor digestion, so they can only eat vegetables and tofu."

When he talked about this, his face was full of hopelessness.

Ye Zhen felt that even if he said that desires should be put lightly on the principles of morality, she would be able to accept it. But this... it was really surprising that she couldn't digest it well.

But the next second, she couldn't laugh anymore, "Doesn't that mean Jing Lan will have to eat cabbage and tofu every day in the future?"

Li Xuan said slowly, "His first priority is to cure his old illness, and his body needs to keep up with the nutrition. I will say hello to Master Bu Er, there is a little cook in Master Bu Er's courtyard."

Ye Zhen immediately said, "I can pay Jing Lan's food expenses on a monthly basis."

Li Xuan stopped and looked at Ye Zhen with his dark eyes. She thought that she had upset him by talking about money. Just as she was about to explain, he leaned over and said, "Okay."

"So, when and how do you plan to pay for the meal?"

Ye Zhen smelled the cool sandalwood scent on his body and locked her body, "I will definitely hand it over."

As expected, his kiss really came down.
