Pick all the cold branches

Lu Lan invited them to stay in the village for the night, and then discuss the big plan together the next day. He also specially ordered his subordinates to clean up the four best guest rooms. Although the conditions were limited, the etiquette was not inconsiderate.

Zhen Xian was originally unwilling.

This reunion with Lu Lan always gave him an indescribably weird feeling, and he instinctively wanted to avoid it.

It is said that after a catastrophe, a person's temperament will change somewhat for the rest of his life.

Zhen Xian couldn't tell whether Lu Lan had changed or whether he was thinking too much.

Maybe he was wrong from the beginning, it was his wishful thinking to impose his obsession on others.

Today's Lu Lan is really different from the Lu Guangfeng who talked with him on the Taihu Lake in the cold mountains.

Lu Lan is a smart person, he had anticipated what happened today, and it was precisely because of the prediction that he was able to make preparations and get away with it.It stands to reason that one should have seen it clearly, so why be cynical instead.

But no matter what, there is a saying that Lu Lan said is right. The Jiyuan Lu Lan who used to be an envoy in the palace is indeed dead.

Zhen Xian was leaning on the chair, holding the scroll in his hand, but he was in a trance.

Seeing this, Jiafei simply took his book and threw it aside so that he could not read it.

The guards guarded in shifts and only needed two rooms to rest. The other two rooms were originally for him and Prince Jing, but His Highness had no intention of going out from his room to live in another room from the very beginning. .

At this time, His Highness took the book in his hand, looked him in the eyes, and deliberately grabbed his hand to prevent him from escaping, and asked him softly, "Does your chest still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt much anymore, it's just that I get tired easily."

Zhen Xian was a little embarrassed, but also wanted to laugh.

It is true that this journey has been a lot of hard work, but His Highness has always taken good care of him, and even healed his wound with his own hands.He finally got used to unbuttoning His Royal Highness's clothes under the watchful eyes of the guards, exposing his scarred skin.

It's just that His Highness is always cautious, as if he is made of snow, and it can melt in his heart, which really makes him very helpless.

Zhen Xian took the initiative to take off his outer robe, and carefully removed the bandage that wrapped the wound, revealing the newly grown tender flesh.

Jia Fei wiped his body carefully, changed the wound medicine, and stared at him to drink the medicine soup.

Feeding Xiaoxian medicine is completely different.

In the past, when serving Jiayu, you had to prepare all the honey water, candied fruit, and jelly beans, and then hugged and coaxed her for a long time until the medicine was almost cold before you could send the medicine down.

Although Xiaoxian is not not afraid of hardship, but compared to Jiayu, he is much more restrained. Every time he frowns and swallows hard, it makes people feel distressed.

I don't know what happened, first Shiro, then Xiaoxian, whoever he got close to, God seemed to make things difficult for him, and he was injured and sick, and couldn't leave the medicine jar all day long.

Seeing that Zhen Xian's medicine bowl was empty, Jia Fei helped him up and coaxed him to go to bed early to rest.

Zhen Xian obediently let him take off his shoes and socks, and lay on the bed, but his eyes were still wide open, unable to sleep.

"Go to sleep. Yuqing and the others are guarding outside, so don't worry."

Jiafei undressed himself and climbed onto the bed, hugged him in his arms, and comforted him while patting him.

Zhen Xian huddled against his chest, fell silent for a long time, and sighed softly.

"Is Your Highness really determined to recruit this group of bandits?"

He suddenly asked such a question, Jiafei seemed not expecting it, and looked at him in a little surprise.

"These thugs are better at fighting than the officers and soldiers. Wouldn't it be nice if we took them in and would have one more army of good fighters to help the southeast, and one less bandit and bandit to bring disaster to the village?"

Zhen Xian lowered his head, biting his lips secretly, "The bandits are bandits after all, they are all desperadoes."

He was obviously worried about something, but he didn't want to say it clearly, so he was so evasive and gave some blunt and far-fetched reasons.

Jiafei couldn't help laughing, tightened his arms, hugged him more tightly, and said: "Only those who are not afraid of death can fight tough battles. In ancient times, there were countless bandits and criminals who confiscated the army, and countless people who were convicted by military exploits. What's more, these people are just It is forced to go to Liangshan, give them a chance, it may not be impossible to be famous and make great achievements."

"It's precisely because I was forced to go to Liangshan..."

Zhen Xian swallowed his words in the middle, as if he also thought it was absurd. After a long time, he had to sigh heavily again.

"This is Lu Lan's team—"

He still said it.

Jiafei was silent.

"You're afraid that Lu Lan will be bad for me. He doesn't have that ability, and he's not that stupid."

However, this answer did not calm Zhen Xiankuan at all, he still frowned and held his breath.

Jiafei was silent for a moment, then stretched out his hand to lift Zhen Xian's long hair that fell down his shoulders, and stared at him deeply.

"Xiaoxian, do you care about that Lu person?"

"No, I'm just..." Zhen Xian's face flushed suddenly, and he retorted subconsciously, but he was at a loss for words and didn't know how to defend himself, so he could only say embarrassingly: "I think he seems... a little strange."

"In my opinion, it's not surprising at all."

Jiafei stared at him for a long time, couldn't help but smile wryly, sighed secretly for a moment, and then said the words outright.

"He likes you. Maybe it's nothing else, just a little pure sympathy. But he likes you and makes you his confidant. That's why he feels resentful because you abandoned him. He has a good vision, no wonder there are Zongheng One side's business."

He was so frank and unabashed.

Zhen Xian's face turned red and white, obviously trying to deny it, but he couldn't make a sound.

Jia Fei shook his head in relief.

"You're so nice, he should like it. I'm not that stingy, so you can't tell me anything."

He took a deep breath, remained silent for a moment, and then smiled wryly.

"But Xiaoxian, have you ever liked him?"

Xiaoxian himself may not have realized that his awareness of Lu Lan far exceeds that of other ordinary passers-by.

Of course it is because he is kind-hearted and self-disciplined, and cannot allow himself to break his promise.

But it was because Lu Lan deeply hurt him that he subconsciously felt a sense of identity and closeness to this person, so he cared especially.

"You like him too. At least he once made you fall in love. You think highly of him, that's why you care about him. That's why you have commitment to him, feel guilty, and get angry because he failed your expectations. "

Jiafei came to the conclusion very melancholy.

"Sure enough, I'd better kill him."

"Your Highness!"

Zhen Xian finally couldn't help crying out.

His Highness's last sentence was of course said casually, or intentionally to scare him, Zhen Xian always has confidence in this.

However, even so, it is already very scary for His Highness to say such words.

"I didn't like him."

Zhen Xian felt that his voice was tightening.

He may indeed have some sympathy for Lu Lan as His Highness said, but there is absolutely nothing else.

He didn't believe His Highness didn't understand.

But His Highness deliberately said such words to make him defend himself.

Once he opened his mouth to defend himself, he had to say a few shameful words, and how he wanted him to speak up.

Zhen Xian was ashamed and annoyed, but didn't know what to say, so he closed his mouth tightly and glared at Jia Fei resentfully.

That expression made Jia Fei very happy, and immediately leaned over to him, and was about to say something in his ear, when suddenly he heard a voice from outside the door.

"Has Brother Xiu Wen rested yet? Can you allow Brother Yu to enter the house for a while?"

It was Lu Lan.

This Cao Cao came at the right time, and he still asked questions knowingly, and even committed crimes knowingly, it was simply terrific.

Suddenly, Jia Fei's face changed strangely.

Seeing this, Zhen Xian turned over, subconsciously grabbed his skirt with one hand, and reached out to touch the outer robe while trying to answer first.

How could Jiafei allow him to talk to others at this moment, he reached out and caught him again, and opened his mouth calmly.

"It's so late at night, it's inconvenient with disheveled clothes."

Before the words finished, Zhen Xian's face was about to turn from red to green, it was really exasperating and funny.

Lu Lan came to look for him at this time, it must be on purpose.But His Highness deserved what he said, and it wasn't much better.

I don't know what happened to these two people.Obviously they are all upper-class people, but they still want to do such boring things that are degrading to the gentlemen.

At first, Zhen Xian wanted to dissuade him.

But Jiafei directly grabbed him with both hands and shackled him in his arms, and covered his mouth with the other hand, not allowing him to answer the conversation at all.He struggled twice in vain, but not only failed to break free at all, on the contrary, most of his clothes slipped off while twisting and pulling, and he became more and more embarrassed.

In terms of strength, Zhen Xian was originally unable to compare with His Royal Highness King Jing who practiced martial arts riding and shooting since childhood, not to mention he was still injured, and soon he could only lose his hands and feet weakly, lying in Jiafei's arms with a red face , silently protested with his eyes.

He heard Lu Lan say outside the door again: "Brother Yu has something to ask Brother Xiuwen."

While Jia Fei was busy hugging Zhen Xian to prevent him from making a sound, he responded casually: "Why don't Boss Lu invite you early tomorrow?"

Lu Lan outside was also unambiguous, and asked back without hesitation.

"Is it inconvenient, or is the prince not allowed?"

Hearing the sound, Zhen Xian felt that the blood on his face had been boiled, and he struggled again, trying to get rid of His Highness Prince Jing's "clutch".

The more fiercely he resisted, the more cheerful Jia Fei became, with a smirk all over his face, he simply held him down, stripped off his close-fitting little clothes, and deliberately threw them at the foot of the bed where he couldn't touch them, Then she stuck him close to the inside of the bed, lest he catch cold, she didn't forget to grab a quilt to cover him.

Zhen Xian couldn't believe it.

An imposing prince and prince, with such a noble and majestic identity, he has learned the six arts of a gentleman from the first day he read and read, and he is well-dressed and handsome during the day, how come he looks like this at this time...

It's unreasonable!

Run amok!

Obscenity... obscenity and no way!

In an instant, these twelve words came to mind.

Zhen Xian was so angry that his fingertips were numb, and he almost vomited a mouthful of blood on the spot.

But at the moment, he was completely naked, and he was so ashamed that he could not even open his mouth to make a sound, so he could only hold on to the quilt and hide in the corner with his blushing face, wanting to stare at Jiafei, but also feeling that he didn't want to see that annoyingly smiling face , had no choice but to stare at the wall fiercely.

Jia Fei was very satisfied with his reaction, and took a leisurely moment to answer Lu Lan again.

"What did you just say...? Yes. Why not? Ask."

The implication is that you can just stand at the door and ask, there is no need to sit down at the door.

Lu Lan was also very persistent, so he continued to ask outside the door: "I sent a letter to my virtuous brother before, I don't know if my virtuous brother has received it?"

This surname Lu is also strange.A normal person would have learned the tricks and left long ago, but he didn't, he was clearly here to find fault.

Jiafei hated it very much, and couldn't directly scold him, so he replied in a calm voice: "Of course I received it."

Lu Lan asked: "How did the unknown brother Xiuwen deal with it?"

"Burned."

Jiafei answered bluntly.

Just as he exited, Zhen Xian, who was shrunk in the corner of the wall, visibly trembled.

Jia Fei's eyes twitched slightly, and he immediately added a sentence.

"I burned it."

Lu Lan insisted on asking outside: "Didn't you ever think about writing back to me?"

This person is such a stalker, his skin is thicker than a city wall, and it is true that he has been able to deal with such a big mess in Zhejiang for many years. Is it easy for him to get better, or is it better for him to be shameless?

Although he lost completely in the end, he almost lost his life.

If he thought about it seriously, Jiafei lost the mood instead. He felt that it would be boring and naive to compete with such a person, so he responded casually: "There is no need to reply to the letter. You just understand it and forget it."

He had made no secret of his boredom.

Lu Lan outside was not moved at all, but laughed out loud, "Does the lord intend to let Brother Xiuwen talk to me again?"

"Give it up, let it go. As long as Boss Lu doesn't come to chat with someone so late at night, there's nothing he can't do. It's the middle of the night whispering, even if Xiao Xian is willing to answer your voice, do you dare to listen?"

Jiafei was also really angry and laughed.

From the beginning till now, Lu Lan purposely bit the words "Xiuwen Xiandi" over and over again, emphasizing as if showing off, but anyone who couldn't hold his breath would have been pissed off already.

But this kind of thing, how can it be done by a decent person?

Given that this person is so scheming and has played the evil tricks of a rogue, if he hadn't been born as a merchant and a commoner, he might have become a tyrant and expand his territory.I don't know what Xiaoxian's eyes are on him...

After all, His Highness Prince Jing only cared about Zhen Xian's attitude.As for Lu Lan himself, it doesn't matter at all.

As soon as he thought of resentment, he felt playful again, quietly stretched his hand into the quilt, and gently kneaded Zhen Xian's waist.

Zhen Xian never imagined that he could do such a thing, he gasped and groaned unpreparedly, and froze all of a sudden.

This cry was unobstructed, and it was difficult not to hear it across a door.

Lu Lan was very calm, and even deliberately knocked on the door twice, "My lord, it's not good for you to bully people like this."

His Royal Highness Prince Jing finally knew what it meant to be "ashamed".

"...You still don't leave, believe it or not, he will never see you again in his life?"

He originally thought that if this guy was still hanging around the door, he would have to ask Yuqing to drive him away.After all, Xiaoxian has a thin skin, so he can't really embarrass Xiaoxian too much.

But Boss Lu is a smart man after all.Yue Mo felt that His Royal Highness Prince Jing was really in a hurry if he continued to tease him, or he was really afraid that Zhen Xian would never see him again in his life, so he walked away quickly.

Jia Fei listened for a while, but when she heard no more movement outside the door, she turned her head and looked at Zhen Xian.

Zhen Xian was still covering his mouth stiffly, huddling in the corner of the bed, grabbing the quilt tightly, with a look of shame and indignation at being molested and humiliated by the "evil person".

The strange flush because of shame suddenly made Jiafei's heart ache, and he couldn't help leaning forward, lowering his head and nibbling lightly on the tip of his nose.

"You still let him call you 'Brother Xiuwen'."

In fact, it's not really a complaint, it's just that I sincerely want to use this title to make things worse.

But he suddenly saw that Xiaoxian's eyes turned red.

"I didn't 'let'…"

Zhen Xian muffled his head and lowered his head to answer such a sentence. As soon as he opened his mouth, it seemed that the last line of defense had finally collapsed, and his whole body couldn't restrain himself from trembling.

"Your Highness...you know it's different. My feelings for you are different from anyone else..."

His eyes were red, and tears gushed out like a flash flood.

Jia Fei stared blankly at his moist eyes, his heart sank, and in an instant, five thunders struck his head.

He actually made Xiaoxian cry.

Thinking back when he was in heavy siege, seriously injured and dying, he never saw Xiaoxian shed a single tear, but now because of his willful and childish self-indulgence, he made Xiaoxian cry...

It's a shame that he clearly understands.In fact, everything has nothing to do with Lu Lan.How could he bully Xiaoxian so badly.

"I know. I know. I was wrong, it's not that I don't believe you, don't—"

Jia Fei was flustered for a while, and hurriedly comforted him in every possible way.

Zhen Xian seemed to be really hurt. Although he didn't know how to make a sound, he couldn't stop crying.

Jiafei could only hug him desperately and kiss his forehead constantly.

But gradually, another strange feeling rippled in my heart.

Since the two of them got older, Xiao Xian became more and more restrained and introverted, and he no longer talked to him about everything on his mind, or even acted like a baby with him.The last time Xiaoxian cuddled up in his arms like this and let him rub and comfort him was probably when he was in his teens...

And it is almost uncommon to express your heart to him like this.

How hard it is for him to coax Xiaoxian out of his mouth on weekdays, even a vague and obedient sentence, is not as exciting as this crying "heart" expression at this moment, which made him tremble with excitement.

Jia Fei felt that he might be a little possessed.

There is a place in the bottom of my heart that has probably collapsed, and it hurts so much when I see Xiaoxian being wronged and crying, but it seems to be poisoned by no cure, and I can't help wanting more like crazy, wanting to go from here Those eyes moistened with tears and lips quivering draw more sweet juice...

"Xiaoxian, what do you think of me?"

He gently pulled his soft and cool black hair and held his face up.

Zhen Xian still stared at him with tears in his eyes, stubbornly bit his lip until it became red and swollen.

This picture fell into the eyes of the beholder, and it was indescribably soul-stirring.

Jiafei's eyes darkened, and she grabbed him even more forcefully, gently kneading his lips with the pad of her thumb, and her voice was hoarse and charming.

"It's not enough for me to know. I want to hear it from you."

Tears welled up in Zhen Xian's pupils, and he stared blankly at him, silent for a long time, opened his mouth several times to speak, but then stopped.

"If it wasn't for you, even if I died, I would never be willing to do this...so..."

He finally stumbled and spit out these words, and in an instant, his cheeks, neck, and even the skin on his chest were stained with a magnificent glow because of shame.

"Which?" Jia Fei lingered on him relentlessly, walking around restlessly with his hands, constantly stirring up the trembling in the depths of his soul, "Xiaoxian, did you say 'this'...or 'this' ?”

Zhen Xian was almost limp in Jia Fei's arms, his moist eyes filled with mist.Sweat drenched her long hair and scattered it all over her body.He bit his lip all the time, refusing to answer.

But there was no need to answer at all.

So distracted and confused, the rain and dew in spring are far better than thousands of words.

Jiafei approached greedily, licked his soft earlobe, and sprayed all the warm breath on the side of the sweaty neck.

"Are you willing to show this expression for me?"

Zhen Xian's shoulders trembled, and his body tensed instantly, like a fish leaping out of the water, drawing an elegant arc, and then slowly softening after falling back to the water.

"Only you...Only Your Highness...I..."

He drowsily dawdled in Jiafei's heart, but the charming whisper was completely submerged in the ups and downs of panting.
