They all say I'm a tyrant

No matter how Lin Ce wants to keep the matter of birthday simple, but now it is considered safe for the country and the people, and there is no reason to ignore the birthday of the king of a country anyway, so when the birthday comes, Lin Ce holds a banquet in the Hall of Martial Arts as usual to reward the officials. Have fun with all the officials.

Lin Ce has always been reticent, never discussing with the government, he has nothing to say when facing civil and military officials, and his eyes always seem to drift to someone's face, so he can only hold the wine in his hand tightly. Zhan, trying not to lose his composure in front of the civil and military officials at such a time.

The officials have long been used to their own majesty, after all, at this time, they are not as restrained as they are in the court hall. In addition, Lin Ce deliberately indulges, the atmosphere in this hall is much more lively than in the past. To my ears, after the case of Li Bu, it was a rare pleasant time in the court.

Although You Yan has been extraordinarily active in court affairs recently, he is still the most independent one on this occasion.He neither went forward to wish today's birthday star, nor exchanged greetings with his colleagues. He just held the wine cup and drank the wine with special concentration.

Because all the ministers came forward to celebrate their birthdays, Lin Ce drank a lot of wine and was already slightly tipsy.He couldn't help but glanced in You Yan's direction again, but he couldn't remember whether You Yan looked like this at this time in previous years. He closed his eyes and thought for a long time, and suddenly remembered You Yan on this day in previous years He would not appear on such an occasion. He would wait early in the Changle Palace, so that when Lin Ce returned from the birthday banquet, he would be able to see him for the first time, and then it would be time for the two of them alone.

Probably not this year.

Lin Ce looked at the wine cup in You Yan's hand, frowned, turned his head to look at Gao Yong, and said in a low voice, "He is weak and prone to illness, so he shouldn't drink too much."

Gao Yong understood immediately, turned around and gave instructions to the waiter who was waiting at the side, and after a while, someone quietly stepped forward and replaced the jug on You Yan's case.When You Yan was pouring the wine again, he immediately noticed the trick in the wine, stared at the faint clear water in his hand, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but raised, he suddenly raised his head to look at the person on the dragon chair, and then Raising the wine cup in his hand, he drank the clear water in the cup in one gulp.

Lin Ce felt that he was probably drunk, so that just such a smile made him confused.He fixed his gaze on You Yan's face for a long time, then suddenly stood up in the astonishment of the civil and military courts: "I'm too strong to drink, let's stop here today."

Lin Ce never liked this kind of occasion, and all the officials naturally knew it, so they immediately understood and said in unison: "I will send you off to Your Majesty."

Lin Ce waved his hand and took a few steps forward, only to feel dizzy for a while, Gao Yong immediately stepped forward to support Lin Ce's arm, and walked out of the hall.

It had just snowed the day before, and it was chilly outside, and the cold wind was blowing on his face. Lin Ce felt that most of the alcohol had receded. The courtiers who walked out of the Hall of Martial Arts.

Gao Yong knew that at such a special time today, His Majesty wanted to see You Yan the most, but he hadn't seen anything from the other party for a long time, so he thought to himself that he might as well send a message to lure him to Changle Palace, so that he could give it to him. Sheng went up to a higher level, but he didn't know what the two of them were thinking, for fear that they would do something bad instead of being reckless.While hesitating, he suddenly saw a familiar figure coming out of the gate of the Hall of Martial Arts, without the slightest pause, heading straight for the side alley where they stayed.

Lin Ce was almost frozen in place, his eyes were fixed on You Yan, and he forgot how to react.It wasn't until You Yan walked in front of him that he came back to his senses, met those smiling eyes, and subconsciously avoided his sight, wishing he could turn around and leave.

You Yan was wearing a fox fur, half of his face was hidden in the thick fur collar, but he still couldn't hide his gentle smiling eyes. You Yan stuffed a long and thin box in his arms to Gao Yong, looking up at Lin Ce's face halfway: "It's been so many days, why are you still angry and don't want to see me so much?"

Lin Ce was taken aback, and shook his head hastily: "No, no," he sighed long, his eyes lowered, "How could I not want to see you?"

The corners of You Yan's lips raised upwards, and he stretched out his hand to grab Lin Ce's hand: "In this case, can you take me back to the palace?" He shrank his shoulders while speaking, "It's very cold today, I'm cold but Just right, if you stand here for a while, don't you feel distressed if your old illness recurs?"

Lin Ce lowered his head to look at the slightly cool palm that was clasped with him, and moved his fingers so that the two of them intertwined. Feeling that the heart that had been empty for several days was finally filled at this moment, he nodded: "Okay, Let's go back to the palace."

A charcoal basin was burned inside the Changle Palace, which was even more warm compared to the cold outside.As soon as Fang entered the hall, Lin Ce took off the fox fur on You Yan's body first, and nodded to Gao Yong: "Bring two bowls of hangover soup."

Finally looking forward to the two being able to get along in the same room, Gao Yong finally heaved a sigh of relief. He put the slender brocade box brought by You Yan on the desk, knowing that the two did not want to be disturbed, and moved towards You Yan nodded, and retreated quietly.

You Yan wiped his face with a damp cloth, and turned around to find that Lin Ce was staring at the brocade box on the desk, but he didn't move at all, so he couldn't help laughing: "I've prepared this congratulatory gift for a long time, you really don't want to see it ?”

Lin Ce turned his head and looked at the long-lost smile on You Yan's face. He felt mixed feelings. He felt that he had a lot to say to You Yan, but he didn't know how to express it when the words came to his lips. In the end, he just Nodding his head, he stretched out his hand towards the brocade box: "Okay."

Inside the brocade box was a scroll. When Lin Ce reached out to pick it up, he thought it would be some kind of rare calligraphy and painting. When he slowly opened the scroll and saw a familiar figure appearing on the painting, he couldn't help but widen his eyes. Eyes, turned to look at You Yan: "You drew this for me?"

You Yan had already lay down before collapsing, and looked at Lin Ce with his head tilted: "I drew a lot of pictures, but in the end I still think this one is better. I haven't picked up a pen for too many years, and my pen strength probably won't be as good as before, and I can't draw it anymore. I don't know if I can get into your eyes."

Lin Ce lowered his head and carefully looked at the scroll in his hand, wishing to remember every detail in his heart. The gorgeous plum forest in the painting gradually coincided with the memory in his mind, reminding him of that moment again. It was a long time before the Japanese and Japanese admired the plum blossom together. After a long time, he slowly said, "I like it very much." Lin Ce turned his head to look at You Yan who was on the couch, "I like it more than any gift I received this year."

You Yan leaned on the soft bed and let out a long sigh of relief: "In this case," he opened his arms, "It's been so many days, Huai Cheng, you don't intend to come and hug me?"

The familiar address fell into his ears, and the corners of Lin Ce's eyes couldn't help sour. He clenched the scroll in his hand, looked at the person on the couch without blinking, and almost wondered if he was drinking at the banquet today. Drinking too much wine, the past in front of you is just an illusion after drinking.

Just as he was stunned, You Yan called him again: "Huai Cheng?"

Lin Ce put down the scroll in his hand almost immediately, came to the side of Ruanta in a few steps, pulled the person on the couch into his arms, and tightly clenched his arms, as if otherwise, there was no way to make up for the loss of the past few days and loneliness.He buried his face in You Yan's neck, letting the scent of this man fill his breath, and finally felt the long-lost peace of mind.

You Yan put his arm around Lin Ce's waist, and tilted his head to touch Lin Ce's face: "I have been thinking all day today, what should I do if you still refuse to see me."

Lin Ce raised his head, his eyes were already red, he leaned over to touch Lin Ce's forehead, and said softly, "That day was mine, right? I have been..."

You Yan reached out and tapped his lips, and stopped his unfinished words: "There are some things that don't need to be argued about right and wrong. You and I are all mortals, and it's normal to have differences, even on some things. , we can’t agree, but it doesn’t mean that someone is wrong. Therefore, no one needs to admit their mistakes.”

Lin Ce blinked, nodded lightly, and couldn't help rubbing You Yan's finger with his lips. You Yan laughed at him, retracted his finger, and kissed You Yan slowly under Lin Ce's disappointed gaze. On Lin Ce's lips.

For the two of them, it was a long-lost kiss. All the repression and patience in the past few days were released because of this kiss, and all the throbbing and longing were eager to be released.

When they are in love, it is difficult to control themselves, and both of them drank a lot of wine at the banquet. When they are drunk, they don't need to suppress it any more. Seeing each other, the tenderness in the eyes of the two has gradually been replaced by another feeling, leaving only the desire for each other.

You Yan has always been frank in this matter, and indulged Lin Ce in every possible way, but this day when Lin Ce couldn't control himself, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed Lin Ce's chest: "Although you don't need to admit your mistake, I was ignored by you for some reason. For many days, I have always felt sad in my heart, and I can only ask you for one thing as compensation, can you agree?"

Lin Ce was short of breath, and his forehead was covered with drops of sweat. Not to mention at this moment, even on weekdays, when had he ever refused what You Yan wanted? He took a deep breath, and his voice was hoarse and a little A rare grievance: "Why did I refuse what you want? Why bargain at this time?"

You Yan laughed, and his warm breath hit Lin Ce's ear: "Of course I don't need anything else, and what I want is of course not an ordinary thing." His hand slowly touched Lin Ce's back, "I will send you a gift today. I bought one of your paintings, so naturally I have to ask for one back, since you promised me, don't deny it when the time comes."

After finishing the words, he kissed Lin Ce's lips again.
