[Traveling] Attacking Wife Trick
Chapter 7 Volume 6 · Mr. Zhao Family
The ancient bronze bell at Duanyang Gate was rang, and the elegant music was lingering, and the eight tones resounded together.
Today's nine-five-year-old supreme is dressed in black clothes and golden dragon crown clothes, standing as tall as a peak, looking down at the magnificent world, praying to the heavens in front of all officials, only hoping that the prosperity will be passed on from generation to generation, and will continue to live forever.
All the ministers knelt down and bowed together, shouting long live three times.
During the banquet, there was light singing and dancing, and there was a lot of joy in the chat.
In front of the hall, the actress has slender hands and plain waist, with gentle eyes, moon-white brocade and water sleeves show the gentleness of posture, and Yan Xiaoyu is so drunk.
Holding the jade cup in his hand, Yingcheng looked at Ji Changxi who was beside him—from the beginning to now, this person has been quiet, and he didn't ask anything because of Luo Qingyao's joke just now, so Yingcheng didn't take the initiative to explain.But after thinking about it, it occurred to him that according to the other party's temperament, he probably wouldn't take that kind of joke to heart, so he remained indifferent.
This level of speculation made Yingcheng feel a little bored.what happened?My emotions have been really elusive lately.
Thinking of this, he turned his head and looked at Ji Changxi again.
It's hard to ignore the direct gaze.
Ji Changxi simply asked, "What's the matter, my lord?"
Shaking his head, Yingcheng didn't say anything, and continued to stare at those dazzling figures, silently going in a daze.
It's just that he is always absent-minded, and those singing and dancing have become boring in his eyes.
A servant came to Yingcheng and saluted, "My lord, Your Highness the Crown Prince invites you to visit Changchun Garden."
Changchun Garden is the back garden of the imperial palace. The rare flowers and exquisite layout inside are amazing. It is a good place for the monarch and princes to enjoy it in their spare time.
Not knowing what the other party was looking for, Ying Cheng subconsciously glanced in the direction of Prince Ying Lan, and saw Ying Lan nodded towards him, then pulled away and left the seat.
After thinking for a moment, Yingcheng said to the person beside him, "Chang Xi, you should wait here for my return, it shouldn't be long."
"It's important." Ji Changxi also saw that he was not in the mood tonight, and comforted him, "Don't worry."
In Changchun Garden, the night is as cool as water, and the moonlight condenses.The plum blossoms in the garden are dignified and elegant.
Ying Lan sat leisurely in the octagonal pavilion near the lake, feeling at ease.
"Brother, you are looking for me." Ying Cheng walked into the pavilion and sat down opposite him.
"Calling you out suddenly, do you feel disappointed?" Although Ying Lan said such words, there was no trace of guilt on Ying Lan's face, but the smile grew wider.
"If there is no important matter, you will definitely not interrupt it halfway." Ying Cheng put his chin on one hand clearly, "Speak, what's the matter?"
Unexpectedly, Ying Lan suddenly changed the subject and asked, "You and the Ji family are getting along well now, aren't you?"
Not understanding why he got involved with Ji Changxi, Ying Cheng vaguely said, "Well, brother, you're already free to care about such trivial matters?"
"Why is it a trivial matter?" Ying Lan stared disapprovingly, "If you two get along well, then what I'm going to talk about is by no means a trivial matter."
Having been whetted by him, Ying Cheng couldn't bear it anymore, "Don't be tricky, okay?"
"Not long ago, you asked me about Beijiang, do you still have any impression?"
Yingcheng's heart skipped a beat. His first reaction was that something serious happened in Beijiang. Then he was worried about the safety of Ji Changxi and his family, so he blurted out, "Old General Ji and the others..."
"Fourth brother——" Ying Lan laughed, "You are really going to fall this time. Father Jun and father were worried that you and Young Master Ji couldn't get along, but now it seems—" He didn't go on, but he meant Already very clear.
Ying Cheng froze there.
"I won't tease you anymore." Ying Lan had had enough trouble with her younger brother, and waved her hand mercifully, "I thought it was just a small fight in Beijiang, but now it seems... not so good. He might past."
Without mentioning the name, Yingcheng knew who "he" was referring to.I didn't know what to say for a while, my hands were a little numb, so I could only nod to indicate that I understood.
"But in the end, it still depends on Jun's father." Ying Lan stood up and patted Ying Cheng on the shoulder, and said, "I just want to tell you first, I am afraid that he will leave when the time comes, and the news will come suddenly."
"Thank you bro."
After walking out of the pavilion, Ying Lan's voice still reached Ying Cheng's ears, "Hurry up and go back, don't make your family wait for a long time—"
The night wind is sobering.
Yingcheng sat alone for a while before walking towards Yongle Hall.Along the way, the conversation with Ying Lan lingered in my head.
The northern border... is really far away, and it's also... dangerous.After finally finding a like-minded person in this strange time and space, the result is that they have to face separation again.If Ji Changxi went to northern Xinjiang, would she return to her previous life state—uneasy, confused, and with nowhere to go.
Ying Cheng suddenly came back to his senses, feeling helpless...Even now, he has never had anything to rely on, why such a word popped into his head, it's strange...
Forcing himself to stop thinking about it, he tried to divert his attention.
A reprimand made Yingcheng stop.
Not far away, I saw a man in Chinese clothes teaching the servant who bowed his head and admitted his mistake.The man's temper was very hot, and he could only hear him scolding, "I think you are getting more and more courageous, and you still dare to talk back? Let my father smash your mouth when you return home!"
Yingcheng frowned, but obviously he didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but often the sky doesn't fulfill people's wishes, and what you don't want will be given to you.
"Hey, I say you, stop for me!"
Before he could take a few steps, he was stopped by someone.Yingcheng sighed in his heart, turned around and looked at the person walking towards him.
When he got close, he could clearly see the appearance of the person who came. It was a boy of fourteen or five years old. He had bright eyes, red lips, fair complexion, and an air of arrogance like the scorching sun in August, but this character—— It's so rotten that it can't be rotten anymore.
When the man saw Yingcheng's appearance, he was slightly taken aback.
"What's the matter?" Since the other party didn't speak, Ying Cheng spoke out first.Let yourself stand for no reason, you have to have something, right?
Yingcheng's tone made the man unhappy again, "How dare you talk to me like that? Do you know who I am?"
I really don't know.The person in front of him looked very unfamiliar, and Ying Cheng was also puzzled - who is he to be so presumptuous in Changchun Garden?
Seeing that Yingcheng was silent, the man snorted, raised his small chin slightly, and his big eyes were full of pride, "Listen to me, my son. My father is the current prime minister and the head of the three princes, Zhao Defang."
No wonder—
The other party reported his family background, and all the problems in Yingcheng were solved.Zhao Defang is a veteran of the three dynasties and a powerful minister in front of the palace. His power is so intertwined that even the king has to be courteous.There are three sons in his family, two are wedges, and they all hold important positions.The only weapon is the one in front of him - the young master of the Zhao family.This person has been loved by everyone since he was a child, and his character... Yingcheng gave an evaluation - arrogant and willful, domineering.
Purely coping, he said, "It turned out to be the young master of Prime Minister Zhao's family, and I am honored to meet you today."
So Zhao Tingyun, the young son of the Zhao family who waited for a long time for such a sentence, became even more angry, "You don't salute after knowing my identity, you are really uneducated."
"I heard that Prime Minister Zhao is a virtuous minister, and his humility and courtesy are highly appreciated by the monarch," even though the other party is a spoiled brat, but Yingcheng has no interest in getting used to his stinky problems, so he said slowly, "I thought the prime minister was teaching and raising children." The aspect is also consistent, after seeing the young master, it is really an eye-opener."
"You!" The sarcasm in Yingcheng's words could not be understood by idiots.Zhao Tingyun had a bad temper, so he took a step forward angrily and wanted to punch someone, but unfortunately, he moved too much and tripped over a stone.
Ying Cheng didn't want to bother him at all, but then he suddenly thought that this kid's father was a high-ranking man after all, so it would be bad if he left something to talk about, and besides...don't add unnecessary trouble to Jun's father.
In the blink of an eye, Yingcheng moved slightly, and the person who was about to fall was already tightly held in his arms.
A moment of silence—
After Zhao Tingyun realized it, she immediately started to jump, reaching out to push Yingcheng away.Yingcheng's reaction was quicker. Before the opponent touched him, he withdrew his hand neatly, and even took a step back.
This kind of avoidance attitude made Zhao Tingyun's face darken - he has always been the only one who despises others, and no one has ever dared to despise him like this!
Just as he was about to attack, he saw Xue Gui, the chief eunuch next to the prince, hurrying towards this side with a palace lantern.
After standing still in front of several people, Xue Gui bowed deeply to Yingcheng, "Prince Rui, the night is too dark, the crown prince asked the servants to take you back to the main hall." Fu turned around and bowed to Zhao Tingyun, "Young Master Zhao."
Yingcheng didn't say any more, just nodded and said, "Thank you, Mr. Xue, let's go."
Zhao Tingyun was dumbfounded. He caught up with Yingcheng and asked stammeringly, "You...you are..."
"Do you still want me to bow and say goodbye to you, Mr. Zhao?"
Zhao Tingyun's face was a little red, but her mouth was still stubborn, "Don't take the opportunity to retaliate! Do you want to complain to His Majesty? Even so, my father will not punish me!"
What an unlovable little bastard.Obviously only one or two years younger than Chang Xi, her personality is completely different.Ying Cheng glanced at him, the man's white jade-like delicate face was full of dissatisfaction, and his clear black and white eyes concealed obvious guilt.
——The guy who didn't grow up.
He couldn't help but curled his lips into a smile, Yingcheng didn't want to know him anymore.
"What are you laughing at?" Zhao Tingyun saw that the other party ignored him and pulled his sleeve to prevent him from leaving. He said angrily, "Yingcheng!" He actually called out his name directly, which was really rude.
The attendants and eunuchs on the side were so frightened that they fell to their knees on the ground.
"Young Master Zhao," Ying Cheng said lightly, his phoenix eyes swept across him coldly, "If you don't know the rules, I don't mind teaching you for Prime Minister Zhao."
He seldom gets angry, and the aura around him is extremely cold at this moment, and he really has anger.
No one dared to speak.
Ying Cheng's thin lips moved slightly, and he said without any emotion, "Let go."
Zhao Tingyun's face was pale, her slender fingers clenched tightly, and finally let go of the opponent's sleeve.
It's annoying to look at.Yingcheng turned around and walked out of the Changchun Garden, his complexion was slightly pale, he closed his eyes to hide the sharpness, and when he opened them again, there was a soft smile on his face.Looking from a distance, he is still personable and elegant like a fairy, and he can't see the slightest deterrence before.
It wasn't until seeing Ji Changxi that Yingcheng felt his mood began to improve.Facing those deep eyes like a cold pool, all the depression slowly calmed down.
Fortunately, I didn't marry that young master of the Zhao family, otherwise I would be bored to death every day.
Ji Changxi didn't ask him why he had been there for so long, but just told Yingcheng about some things in the palace after that, nothing more than the wonderful singing and dancing, nothing else.
When the endless hustle and bustle finally calmed down, the celebration banquet finally came to an end.
When I went back, heavy snow fell all over Changping Street.The attendant next to him helped Yingcheng and Ji Changxi hold up the paper umbrella.
This kind of weather always makes people's thoughts flutter, and somehow they recalled the words Ying Lan mentioned in the Octagonal Pavilion.
Naturally hugging Ji Changxi's waist, Yingcheng said, "Come here, the snow is too heavy."
Ji Changxi hummed, and the two of them were shoulder to shoulder, with the back of their hand rubbing against each other's back from time to time, but no one took the initiative to hold it.
In the mansion, the lights are brightly lit, and the lively atmosphere has not been reduced by half because of nightfall.
Although he didn't drink much, Ning Xiang still brought a bowl of hangover soup to Ying Cheng, "Drink some, my lord, or you'll have a headache the next day."
Yeah, how come I never knew?Thinking about the authenticity of Ning Xiang's words, Ying Cheng obediently drank the bowl.
I didn't feel it at the banquet, but after I calmed down, I realized that the smell of alcohol was a little unbearable, and regardless of what Ning Xiang said, it was too cold and too late, so I got up and prepared to go to Yaoxian Lake to clean up.
"My lord, your health has not been recovering for a long time, what if you get frozen again? You will blame me." Ning Xiang had a bitter face, his lord was really worried.
"He will only blame me, not you." Ying Cheng smiled and said, "Is the gentleman asleep?"
"It should have stopped."
"Don't mention this to him tomorrow, remember." After speaking, leaving Ning Xiang alone, he opened the door and walked out.
Only Ning Xiang was very depressed.
Yaoxian Pond, as the name suggests, is as beautiful as a fairyland, it is a living water bath in Prince Rui's residence.The water in the pool is warm in winter and cool in summer, and the pool is permeated with a light fragrance all the year round. No spices are deliberately added, which is all caused by the stream itself, which is amazing.
The gold-inlaid dragon and phoenix pillars are arranged at four corners, and there are night pearls in the sea of clouds in the mouth, and water trickles out from them.The surrounding fog is lingering, and the fragrance is faint, quite a bit like Yuyu Qiongge.
Standing on the smooth pool platform, Ying Cheng couldn't help sighing deeply: It's really comfortable.
Slowly approaching the edge of the pool platform, but suddenly heard a slight noise, and before he could be surprised, he heard someone in the pool calling softly, "Your Majesty." The voice was also somewhat surprised.
"Chang Xi?" Ying Cheng stood where he was. The water mist was so heavy that he couldn't see the person in the water clearly, so he instinctively walked towards him.
And the man seemed to be frightened, and took a few steps back, causing small ripples in the water.
Ji Changxi never expected that Yingcheng would also come to Yaoxian Lake at night.I just slipped here alone because I felt that the smell of alcohol on my body was too bad and I was afraid of Mutang's nagging, but in the end——
He was not covered with a single thread, and he was really embarrassed in the pool water.
Ever since they got married with Ying Cheng, they have been getting along like friends, even if they lie on the same bed at night, they are still neatly dressed.Although I know that the relationship between the two is destined not to be as pure as friends for the rest of my life, but——
If she wants to get dressed, Yingcheng is on the platform of the pool, and if she comes out of the pool, she must be completely naked, Ji Changxi is still unable to be so magnanimous.
But here, Yingcheng didn't have as many ideas as the other party at first, it was just a little unexpected.Then he saw that Ji Changxi didn't speak for a long time, and he didn't make any movements. After thinking for a while, he suddenly realized that this is a beam, which can be divided into wedges.I was too nervous before, thinking that they were all men, so it didn't matter.Only after knowing it later did we realize the seriousness of the problem.
"I'm sorry, Chang Xi..." Ying Cheng secretly scolded himself for making a big oolong, "I'll go out first." Then, he turned around and was about to leave, but he had already walked to the edge of the pool, and the Yaoxian Pool was full of hustle and bustle all year round. Run Ze, most of the countertops were slippery, and Ying Cheng moved in a hurry, so he staggered sadly and fell into the water.
Ji Changxi was taken aback. Although the water in the pool was not deep, she was caught off guard when Ying Cheng fell, fearing that the other party would be injured, and for a moment she didn't care about other things. She dived into the water and wanted to catch him up.
Water splashed around him, and Ying Cheng felt that his hearing and vision were instantly deprived. He couldn't even open his eyes, and it became difficult to breathe.Then someone tugged on himself.
Finally, I still tried to look at each other.
Everything under the water was hazy and deep. He saw Ji Changxi's slender and beautiful body, as smooth as a piece of jade, her black hair stretched out in the water like satin, her beautiful legs entangled the colorless pool water, just like in the deep sea. mermaid.
A pull forced him to swim upstream, and the water shook and he saw light again.
"Ahem!" Yingcheng hugged Ji Changxi, feeling very uncomfortable in his throat.
"My lord, are you okay?" Ji Changxi patted his back, trying to make him feel better.
"It's okay..." After being submerged in water for a while, people became much clearer.Yingcheng recovered for a moment, and wanted to turn his head to thank him, but the distance between the two was too close, the tip of their noses touched the tip of their noses, and their lips brushed against each other's lips, warm and soft.
For a moment they all fell silent.
Yingcheng looked at the person in front of him, his black hair was still scattered in the water, it was black and shiny, more beautiful than a lotus flower in full bloom.The water droplets on the eyelashes are about to fall.
The clothes are all soaked, and I can clearly feel the other party's flexible and naked body.His head was a little dazed, his hands were still tightly around Ji Changxi's waist, Ying Cheng didn't know how to react.
They were so close that their breathing seemed to blend together.
"My lord..." Ji Changxi finally spoke, but his voice was very low.Yingcheng had the illusion that he was speaking between his lips.
This person has always been calm and indifferent, or he is sharp and tough in the martial arts arena. At this moment, the half-downcast gesture of showing weakness makes Yingcheng's heart tighten inexplicably.There is a slight redness on his face, I don't know if it's because he has been in the pool for too long or because of other things——
By coincidence, Ying Cheng reached out and raised his chin, making the other party look at him.
Ji Changxi's dark and deep eyes lost their usual composure, and imperceptible panic spread in the water vapor.
His expression softened Yingcheng's heart, and he let him go unconsciously.Wherever he looked, he landed on the totem of the black bird on Ji Changxi's wrist, which was ancient and mysterious, giving him a strange illusion.
Ying Cheng watched him put on his clothes hastily, and said calmly, "I... my lord, I'm going back first."
Almost an escape.
Ying Cheng's arms were folded on the pool platform, but his body was still in the water, thinking deeply - so you will also have times like this.
Today's nine-five-year-old supreme is dressed in black clothes and golden dragon crown clothes, standing as tall as a peak, looking down at the magnificent world, praying to the heavens in front of all officials, only hoping that the prosperity will be passed on from generation to generation, and will continue to live forever.
All the ministers knelt down and bowed together, shouting long live three times.
During the banquet, there was light singing and dancing, and there was a lot of joy in the chat.
In front of the hall, the actress has slender hands and plain waist, with gentle eyes, moon-white brocade and water sleeves show the gentleness of posture, and Yan Xiaoyu is so drunk.
Holding the jade cup in his hand, Yingcheng looked at Ji Changxi who was beside him—from the beginning to now, this person has been quiet, and he didn't ask anything because of Luo Qingyao's joke just now, so Yingcheng didn't take the initiative to explain.But after thinking about it, it occurred to him that according to the other party's temperament, he probably wouldn't take that kind of joke to heart, so he remained indifferent.
This level of speculation made Yingcheng feel a little bored.what happened?My emotions have been really elusive lately.
Thinking of this, he turned his head and looked at Ji Changxi again.
It's hard to ignore the direct gaze.
Ji Changxi simply asked, "What's the matter, my lord?"
Shaking his head, Yingcheng didn't say anything, and continued to stare at those dazzling figures, silently going in a daze.
It's just that he is always absent-minded, and those singing and dancing have become boring in his eyes.
A servant came to Yingcheng and saluted, "My lord, Your Highness the Crown Prince invites you to visit Changchun Garden."
Changchun Garden is the back garden of the imperial palace. The rare flowers and exquisite layout inside are amazing. It is a good place for the monarch and princes to enjoy it in their spare time.
Not knowing what the other party was looking for, Ying Cheng subconsciously glanced in the direction of Prince Ying Lan, and saw Ying Lan nodded towards him, then pulled away and left the seat.
After thinking for a moment, Yingcheng said to the person beside him, "Chang Xi, you should wait here for my return, it shouldn't be long."
"It's important." Ji Changxi also saw that he was not in the mood tonight, and comforted him, "Don't worry."
In Changchun Garden, the night is as cool as water, and the moonlight condenses.The plum blossoms in the garden are dignified and elegant.
Ying Lan sat leisurely in the octagonal pavilion near the lake, feeling at ease.
"Brother, you are looking for me." Ying Cheng walked into the pavilion and sat down opposite him.
"Calling you out suddenly, do you feel disappointed?" Although Ying Lan said such words, there was no trace of guilt on Ying Lan's face, but the smile grew wider.
"If there is no important matter, you will definitely not interrupt it halfway." Ying Cheng put his chin on one hand clearly, "Speak, what's the matter?"
Unexpectedly, Ying Lan suddenly changed the subject and asked, "You and the Ji family are getting along well now, aren't you?"
Not understanding why he got involved with Ji Changxi, Ying Cheng vaguely said, "Well, brother, you're already free to care about such trivial matters?"
"Why is it a trivial matter?" Ying Lan stared disapprovingly, "If you two get along well, then what I'm going to talk about is by no means a trivial matter."
Having been whetted by him, Ying Cheng couldn't bear it anymore, "Don't be tricky, okay?"
"Not long ago, you asked me about Beijiang, do you still have any impression?"
Yingcheng's heart skipped a beat. His first reaction was that something serious happened in Beijiang. Then he was worried about the safety of Ji Changxi and his family, so he blurted out, "Old General Ji and the others..."
"Fourth brother——" Ying Lan laughed, "You are really going to fall this time. Father Jun and father were worried that you and Young Master Ji couldn't get along, but now it seems—" He didn't go on, but he meant Already very clear.
Ying Cheng froze there.
"I won't tease you anymore." Ying Lan had had enough trouble with her younger brother, and waved her hand mercifully, "I thought it was just a small fight in Beijiang, but now it seems... not so good. He might past."
Without mentioning the name, Yingcheng knew who "he" was referring to.I didn't know what to say for a while, my hands were a little numb, so I could only nod to indicate that I understood.
"But in the end, it still depends on Jun's father." Ying Lan stood up and patted Ying Cheng on the shoulder, and said, "I just want to tell you first, I am afraid that he will leave when the time comes, and the news will come suddenly."
"Thank you bro."
After walking out of the pavilion, Ying Lan's voice still reached Ying Cheng's ears, "Hurry up and go back, don't make your family wait for a long time—"
The night wind is sobering.
Yingcheng sat alone for a while before walking towards Yongle Hall.Along the way, the conversation with Ying Lan lingered in my head.
The northern border... is really far away, and it's also... dangerous.After finally finding a like-minded person in this strange time and space, the result is that they have to face separation again.If Ji Changxi went to northern Xinjiang, would she return to her previous life state—uneasy, confused, and with nowhere to go.
Ying Cheng suddenly came back to his senses, feeling helpless...Even now, he has never had anything to rely on, why such a word popped into his head, it's strange...
Forcing himself to stop thinking about it, he tried to divert his attention.
A reprimand made Yingcheng stop.
Not far away, I saw a man in Chinese clothes teaching the servant who bowed his head and admitted his mistake.The man's temper was very hot, and he could only hear him scolding, "I think you are getting more and more courageous, and you still dare to talk back? Let my father smash your mouth when you return home!"
Yingcheng frowned, but obviously he didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but often the sky doesn't fulfill people's wishes, and what you don't want will be given to you.
"Hey, I say you, stop for me!"
Before he could take a few steps, he was stopped by someone.Yingcheng sighed in his heart, turned around and looked at the person walking towards him.
When he got close, he could clearly see the appearance of the person who came. It was a boy of fourteen or five years old. He had bright eyes, red lips, fair complexion, and an air of arrogance like the scorching sun in August, but this character—— It's so rotten that it can't be rotten anymore.
When the man saw Yingcheng's appearance, he was slightly taken aback.
"What's the matter?" Since the other party didn't speak, Ying Cheng spoke out first.Let yourself stand for no reason, you have to have something, right?
Yingcheng's tone made the man unhappy again, "How dare you talk to me like that? Do you know who I am?"
I really don't know.The person in front of him looked very unfamiliar, and Ying Cheng was also puzzled - who is he to be so presumptuous in Changchun Garden?
Seeing that Yingcheng was silent, the man snorted, raised his small chin slightly, and his big eyes were full of pride, "Listen to me, my son. My father is the current prime minister and the head of the three princes, Zhao Defang."
No wonder—
The other party reported his family background, and all the problems in Yingcheng were solved.Zhao Defang is a veteran of the three dynasties and a powerful minister in front of the palace. His power is so intertwined that even the king has to be courteous.There are three sons in his family, two are wedges, and they all hold important positions.The only weapon is the one in front of him - the young master of the Zhao family.This person has been loved by everyone since he was a child, and his character... Yingcheng gave an evaluation - arrogant and willful, domineering.
Purely coping, he said, "It turned out to be the young master of Prime Minister Zhao's family, and I am honored to meet you today."
So Zhao Tingyun, the young son of the Zhao family who waited for a long time for such a sentence, became even more angry, "You don't salute after knowing my identity, you are really uneducated."
"I heard that Prime Minister Zhao is a virtuous minister, and his humility and courtesy are highly appreciated by the monarch," even though the other party is a spoiled brat, but Yingcheng has no interest in getting used to his stinky problems, so he said slowly, "I thought the prime minister was teaching and raising children." The aspect is also consistent, after seeing the young master, it is really an eye-opener."
"You!" The sarcasm in Yingcheng's words could not be understood by idiots.Zhao Tingyun had a bad temper, so he took a step forward angrily and wanted to punch someone, but unfortunately, he moved too much and tripped over a stone.

This kind of avoidance attitude made Zhao Tingyun's face darken - he has always been the only one who despises others, and no one has ever dared to despise him like this!
Just as he was about to attack, he saw Xue Gui, the chief eunuch next to the prince, hurrying towards this side with a palace lantern.
After standing still in front of several people, Xue Gui bowed deeply to Yingcheng, "Prince Rui, the night is too dark, the crown prince asked the servants to take you back to the main hall." Fu turned around and bowed to Zhao Tingyun, "Young Master Zhao."
Yingcheng didn't say any more, just nodded and said, "Thank you, Mr. Xue, let's go."
Zhao Tingyun was dumbfounded. He caught up with Yingcheng and asked stammeringly, "You...you are..."
"Do you still want me to bow and say goodbye to you, Mr. Zhao?"
Zhao Tingyun's face was a little red, but her mouth was still stubborn, "Don't take the opportunity to retaliate! Do you want to complain to His Majesty? Even so, my father will not punish me!"
What an unlovable little bastard.Obviously only one or two years younger than Chang Xi, her personality is completely different.Ying Cheng glanced at him, the man's white jade-like delicate face was full of dissatisfaction, and his clear black and white eyes concealed obvious guilt.
——The guy who didn't grow up.
He couldn't help but curled his lips into a smile, Yingcheng didn't want to know him anymore.
"What are you laughing at?" Zhao Tingyun saw that the other party ignored him and pulled his sleeve to prevent him from leaving. He said angrily, "Yingcheng!" He actually called out his name directly, which was really rude.
The attendants and eunuchs on the side were so frightened that they fell to their knees on the ground.
"Young Master Zhao," Ying Cheng said lightly, his phoenix eyes swept across him coldly, "If you don't know the rules, I don't mind teaching you for Prime Minister Zhao."
He seldom gets angry, and the aura around him is extremely cold at this moment, and he really has anger.
No one dared to speak.
Ying Cheng's thin lips moved slightly, and he said without any emotion, "Let go."
Zhao Tingyun's face was pale, her slender fingers clenched tightly, and finally let go of the opponent's sleeve.
It's annoying to look at.Yingcheng turned around and walked out of the Changchun Garden, his complexion was slightly pale, he closed his eyes to hide the sharpness, and when he opened them again, there was a soft smile on his face.Looking from a distance, he is still personable and elegant like a fairy, and he can't see the slightest deterrence before.
It wasn't until seeing Ji Changxi that Yingcheng felt his mood began to improve.Facing those deep eyes like a cold pool, all the depression slowly calmed down.
Fortunately, I didn't marry that young master of the Zhao family, otherwise I would be bored to death every day.
Ji Changxi didn't ask him why he had been there for so long, but just told Yingcheng about some things in the palace after that, nothing more than the wonderful singing and dancing, nothing else.
When the endless hustle and bustle finally calmed down, the celebration banquet finally came to an end.
When I went back, heavy snow fell all over Changping Street.The attendant next to him helped Yingcheng and Ji Changxi hold up the paper umbrella.
This kind of weather always makes people's thoughts flutter, and somehow they recalled the words Ying Lan mentioned in the Octagonal Pavilion.
Naturally hugging Ji Changxi's waist, Yingcheng said, "Come here, the snow is too heavy."
Ji Changxi hummed, and the two of them were shoulder to shoulder, with the back of their hand rubbing against each other's back from time to time, but no one took the initiative to hold it.
In the mansion, the lights are brightly lit, and the lively atmosphere has not been reduced by half because of nightfall.
Although he didn't drink much, Ning Xiang still brought a bowl of hangover soup to Ying Cheng, "Drink some, my lord, or you'll have a headache the next day."
Yeah, how come I never knew?Thinking about the authenticity of Ning Xiang's words, Ying Cheng obediently drank the bowl.
I didn't feel it at the banquet, but after I calmed down, I realized that the smell of alcohol was a little unbearable, and regardless of what Ning Xiang said, it was too cold and too late, so I got up and prepared to go to Yaoxian Lake to clean up.
"My lord, your health has not been recovering for a long time, what if you get frozen again? You will blame me." Ning Xiang had a bitter face, his lord was really worried.
"He will only blame me, not you." Ying Cheng smiled and said, "Is the gentleman asleep?"
"It should have stopped."
"Don't mention this to him tomorrow, remember." After speaking, leaving Ning Xiang alone, he opened the door and walked out.
Only Ning Xiang was very depressed.
Yaoxian Pond, as the name suggests, is as beautiful as a fairyland, it is a living water bath in Prince Rui's residence.The water in the pool is warm in winter and cool in summer, and the pool is permeated with a light fragrance all the year round. No spices are deliberately added, which is all caused by the stream itself, which is amazing.
The gold-inlaid dragon and phoenix pillars are arranged at four corners, and there are night pearls in the sea of clouds in the mouth, and water trickles out from them.The surrounding fog is lingering, and the fragrance is faint, quite a bit like Yuyu Qiongge.
Standing on the smooth pool platform, Ying Cheng couldn't help sighing deeply: It's really comfortable.
Slowly approaching the edge of the pool platform, but suddenly heard a slight noise, and before he could be surprised, he heard someone in the pool calling softly, "Your Majesty." The voice was also somewhat surprised.
"Chang Xi?" Ying Cheng stood where he was. The water mist was so heavy that he couldn't see the person in the water clearly, so he instinctively walked towards him.
And the man seemed to be frightened, and took a few steps back, causing small ripples in the water.
Ji Changxi never expected that Yingcheng would also come to Yaoxian Lake at night.I just slipped here alone because I felt that the smell of alcohol on my body was too bad and I was afraid of Mutang's nagging, but in the end——
He was not covered with a single thread, and he was really embarrassed in the pool water.
Ever since they got married with Ying Cheng, they have been getting along like friends, even if they lie on the same bed at night, they are still neatly dressed.Although I know that the relationship between the two is destined not to be as pure as friends for the rest of my life, but——
If she wants to get dressed, Yingcheng is on the platform of the pool, and if she comes out of the pool, she must be completely naked, Ji Changxi is still unable to be so magnanimous.
But here, Yingcheng didn't have as many ideas as the other party at first, it was just a little unexpected.Then he saw that Ji Changxi didn't speak for a long time, and he didn't make any movements. After thinking for a while, he suddenly realized that this is a beam, which can be divided into wedges.I was too nervous before, thinking that they were all men, so it didn't matter.Only after knowing it later did we realize the seriousness of the problem.
"I'm sorry, Chang Xi..." Ying Cheng secretly scolded himself for making a big oolong, "I'll go out first." Then, he turned around and was about to leave, but he had already walked to the edge of the pool, and the Yaoxian Pool was full of hustle and bustle all year round. Run Ze, most of the countertops were slippery, and Ying Cheng moved in a hurry, so he staggered sadly and fell into the water.
Ji Changxi was taken aback. Although the water in the pool was not deep, she was caught off guard when Ying Cheng fell, fearing that the other party would be injured, and for a moment she didn't care about other things. She dived into the water and wanted to catch him up.
Water splashed around him, and Ying Cheng felt that his hearing and vision were instantly deprived. He couldn't even open his eyes, and it became difficult to breathe.Then someone tugged on himself.
Finally, I still tried to look at each other.
Everything under the water was hazy and deep. He saw Ji Changxi's slender and beautiful body, as smooth as a piece of jade, her black hair stretched out in the water like satin, her beautiful legs entangled the colorless pool water, just like in the deep sea. mermaid.
A pull forced him to swim upstream, and the water shook and he saw light again.
"Ahem!" Yingcheng hugged Ji Changxi, feeling very uncomfortable in his throat.
"My lord, are you okay?" Ji Changxi patted his back, trying to make him feel better.
"It's okay..." After being submerged in water for a while, people became much clearer.Yingcheng recovered for a moment, and wanted to turn his head to thank him, but the distance between the two was too close, the tip of their noses touched the tip of their noses, and their lips brushed against each other's lips, warm and soft.
For a moment they all fell silent.
Yingcheng looked at the person in front of him, his black hair was still scattered in the water, it was black and shiny, more beautiful than a lotus flower in full bloom.The water droplets on the eyelashes are about to fall.
The clothes are all soaked, and I can clearly feel the other party's flexible and naked body.His head was a little dazed, his hands were still tightly around Ji Changxi's waist, Ying Cheng didn't know how to react.
They were so close that their breathing seemed to blend together.
"My lord..." Ji Changxi finally spoke, but his voice was very low.Yingcheng had the illusion that he was speaking between his lips.
This person has always been calm and indifferent, or he is sharp and tough in the martial arts arena. At this moment, the half-downcast gesture of showing weakness makes Yingcheng's heart tighten inexplicably.There is a slight redness on his face, I don't know if it's because he has been in the pool for too long or because of other things——
By coincidence, Ying Cheng reached out and raised his chin, making the other party look at him.
Ji Changxi's dark and deep eyes lost their usual composure, and imperceptible panic spread in the water vapor.
His expression softened Yingcheng's heart, and he let him go unconsciously.Wherever he looked, he landed on the totem of the black bird on Ji Changxi's wrist, which was ancient and mysterious, giving him a strange illusion.
Ying Cheng watched him put on his clothes hastily, and said calmly, "I... my lord, I'm going back first."
Almost an escape.
Ying Cheng's arms were folded on the pool platform, but his body was still in the water, thinking deeply - so you will also have times like this.
