The prince is shameless
Chapter 44
A handsome man in plain white clothes stood behind the table with a smile, his face made Wen Xing vaguely familiar.
The man was holding an abacus in his hand, and he seemed to be the shopkeeper of this dream restaurant.
"What's wrong?" The bolder one at the next table raised his eyebrows and asked bluntly.
The man in white smiled and said, "Who said plum blossoms embroidered on the sachet must be plum fragrance?"
As he said that, he looked up and down the person who spoke rudely, and continued: "I saw that the guest officer is wearing a shit yellow suit. Could it be that you smell like this?"
The man in white looks elegant, but his words are very straightforward.
"What are you talking about!" The man's complexion changed, and he immediately jumped up, "Is this the way you, the shopkeeper, do business?"
The man in white shrugged indifferently, and said, "Don't get excited, I'm just discussing the matter, if you don't like it, you can leave. Oh, by the way, remember to pay before leaving."
After finishing the last sentence, he ignored the man, waved his hand smartly, turned around and was about to leave.
But on the way of turning around, he winked at Wen Xing and gave him a wink.
Is it someone you know?
Wen Xing saw what he meant, hesitated for a while, and said to Xie Yi, "I'll go over for a while."
"Who is he?" Xie Yi felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, he stood up at the same time Wen Xing got up, and grabbed Wen Xing's hand.
Wen Xing shook his head and said, "I don't really remember, you and Xiaoqing are staying here, and I'll be back in a while, okay?"
While speaking, Wen Xing's eyes were full of sincerity, and he couldn't bear to refuse.
"...well, come back quickly then."
Xie Yi finally let go of his hand resentfully, and sat back on the chair again.
Wen Xing smiled at him, and slowly walked towards the place the man indicated earlier.
It seemed to be a small room that ordinary people were not allowed to go to, and the closer it got, the deserted it became.
When I finally saw that white figure, most of the noise outside had been cut off.
Wen Xing stopped in his tracks, and said after deliberation: "I don't know what this young master is going to do here?"
Hearing Wen Xing's voice, the man turned his head and said somewhat disappointedly, "Don't you remember me?"
"Ok?"
Wen Xing looked him up and down suspiciously, and said to himself, "It's really familiar..."
He searched for the figure in his mind, and gradually approached the man in front of him.
After a long while, he suddenly raised his head and said in surprise, "I remembered! You are Yun Nian!"
"En!" Seeing that Wen Xing finally thought of herself, Yun Nian frowned and smiled happily.
Seeing his old friend again, Wen Xing couldn't help but put aside his worries for the time being, patted Yun Nian's shoulder lightly, and said, "Okay, you, I haven't seen you for a few years, you've changed a lot, I don't even recognize you."
Before leaving, Yun Nian was still a well-behaved and obedient servant, and his whole person looked like a soft persimmon, which was very manageable.
I didn't expect to be so eloquent in just a few years.
Yun Nian giggled, and said: "It's thanks to you, without you, I might still be just an ordinary boy today."
Wen Xing chuckled, and then asked: "Speaking of which, how did you become the shopkeeper of this dream restaurant?"
"It's a coincidence." Yun Nian said calmly, as if the most famous restaurant was no different from those ordinary small inns, "I made a bet with a person, if this restaurant can be managed well, he He supported me until I was nominated on the imperial examination gold list. It happened that I knew a cook with excellent skills, so I worked hard to invite him."
The biggest advantage of traveling around is that you can meet more people. Yun Nian hired this famous chef who was almost reclusive by relying on his previous travels.
Wen Xing praised him a few more words, remembered Xie Yi's instructions, and said, "I came out this time to relax with His Royal Highness, and I will continue to do business without disturbing you, so I will take my leave first."
"Hey wait!"
Yun Nian hurriedly called out to stop him.
"Huh?" Wen Xing stopped the movement of leaving, and looked at him suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
Yun Nian stood there and hesitated for a moment, and then said: "What they said...what's going on?"
"They" refers to the people at the previous table.
"There are people coming and going in the restaurant every day. I can't help but hear a lot about you, but most people don't like you. What happened?"
Wen Xing pursed his lips when he heard the words, and said after a while: "I won't be able to explain clearly for a while, I'll talk to you later when I have time."
Yun Nian sensed that Wen Xing's mood had changed because of his questioning, so she nodded without saying anything.
Wen Xing lifted the corner of his mouth and smiled lightly, and said his goodbyes before leaving.
When we got back, the food was already on the table.
"Why did it take so long?"
Xie Yi and Xie Qing sat together without moving their chopsticks, as if they were waiting for him.
Wen Xing smiled apologetically, and explained: "That person is Yun Nian, so we talked for a while."
"Yun Nian?" Xie Yi also seemed very surprised when he heard the name, "Just that boy who was by your side a few years ago?"
Wen Xing nodded, said with a smile: "I didn't recognize it at first, but it really is Shibie Three Days Ding. I'll be admiring."
Xie Yi echoed a few words casually, and started to eat.
Wen Xing didn't say any more, and had a meal in peace.
In the lobby, a wave of people came and went, and it was always lively.It's just that, as Yun Nian said, most of the people who discussed Wen Xing were belittling him.
Some of the statements are indeed true, but others are pure slander.
Wen Xing really didn't know what outrageous thing he had done to get such a bad reputation.
The meal was not very pleasant, and the purpose of taking Xie Qing out to relax was not achieved, but it added a lot of trouble.
The three wandered around Zhang'an City casually, and returned to the palace before noon.
In the next few days, folk rumors gradually flowed into the palace.Although Xie Yi ordered several times not to discuss this matter, there were still a lot of gossip spread into the East Palace.
Wen Xing didn't care about it on the surface, but he couldn't help being irritable in his heart.
After a few days of sorting out his thoughts, he actually almost guessed the source of the rumors.
His mother Xu Yunning.
Apart from Wen Xing himself, probably only Xu Yunning knew about the sachet - perhaps there would be more than one father, Wen Guang.
No wonder Xu Yunning was not afraid that he would confess about the sachet, so he had such a calculation.
Wen Xing didn't have much affection for Xu Yunning, the initial sadness was over, and the rest was only anger and bewilderment.
Angry at her treating herself like this, not understanding the reason behind her.
After the Mei Concubine incident, Wen Xing went back to the mansion to investigate, and found that he did have two uncles, but these two uncles died in the border battle, and died before he was born.
Everything was so strange that Wen Xing was so upset that he moved a ladder to climb up to the roof in broad daylight. Taking advantage of the fine weather today, he lay on the cool tiles and stared at the blue sky.
The morning in early spring is damp and cool, and you can still catch a wisp of elegant fragrance without sniffing carefully.
Xie Yi hadn't gone to court yet, the people in the East Palace were busy with their own affairs in an orderly manner, Xie Qing had also gone to Qinglan Palace, and no one came to disturb his cleanliness for a while.
Without the cover of the palace walls, the blue sky and white clouds stretched as far as the eye could see, magnanimously forgiving all Wen Xing's troubles at the moment.
Drop everything and think about nothing.
Wen Xing allowed himself to escape from the recent things for a short time, letting himself sink into the vast sky.
Before he knew it, he fell asleep directly on the roof in the sleepless night.
The cold wind was blowing gently, stirring the corners of his light blue clothes.
When Xie Yi followed Fu Lu's instructions and went up to the roof, Wen Xing was already fast asleep.
He sighed helplessly, walked lightly to Wen Xing's side, and slowly covered him with the cloak he brought up by hand.
As if disturbed, Wen Xing frowned slightly, but there was no sign of waking up.He moved slightly and continued to sleep with his eyes closed.
Xie Yi usually would sneak into Wen Xing's room at night when he was in the mood, and would just watch Wen Xing quietly without doing anything.
But it was all night, and there was only a little yellow candlelight left in the room, so I couldn't see Wen Xing's face very clearly.
Today is different, the daylight is just right, and he is lying on his side.
Xie Yi looked up at the blue sky, which was unobstructed for the first time, and couldn't help temporarily putting aside a bunch of recent affairs.
I'm afraid it will be very rare to have such a time in the future.
Xie Yi didn't know that Wen Xing had let go of his guard against "Xie Yi in this life", he sighed, and slowly turned his gaze back to Wen Xing.
Wen Xing's eyes were circled black, and his brows had not been loosened since they were furrowed.There was haggardness in the fair and delicate face, and it was obvious at a glance that he had not had a good rest.
Xie Yi gently stretched out his bony right index finger, and slowly traced the contours of Wen Xing's face through the cold wind.
Slide from the eyebrows to the eyes on both sides, then from the eyes to the nose, slowly move down, and finally stop on his lips.
After a while, Xie Yi finally couldn't hold back his beating heart, and gently bent down.
-
When Wen Xing woke up again, he didn't know how much time had passed.
He opened his eyes in a daze, but was blinded by the sunlight and closed them again.
"Well……"
Wen Xing murmured indistinctly, and was about to raise his hand to block the light, when a cold palm took a step ahead of him.
"woke up?"
Xie Yi's slightly hoarse voice sounded beside his ears, Wen Xing was stunned for a moment, and finally regained consciousness completely.
He remembered that he was distracted and came up to hide for a while, but he didn't expect to fall asleep directly.
His eyes gradually got used to it, Wen Xing wanted to gently push away Xie Yi's hand that was shielding him from the light, but he found something covering his body.
It must be that Xie Yi was afraid that he would catch a cold.
Wen Xing breathed a sigh of relief, opened Xie Yi's palm, and said with a slight smile: "I want to come up to relax, but unexpectedly I fell asleep accidentally, making His Highness laugh."
"You're the only one who wants to relax?" Xie Yi glanced at him reproachfully, "I'm not afraid of exhaling the wind and cold."
Wen Xing lifted the cloak covering his body, stuffed it into Xie Yi's hands without any explanation, and said, "His Royal Highness, please worry, but I have to dare to return the original words to you. You have been on this roof for a while, why not?" Ask Flux to bring up more clothes? It won't be good if you catch a cold."
Xie Yi didn't refuse, and held the cloak soaked in Wen Xing's body temperature in his hands.
Xie Yi saw Wen Xing's melancholy these past few days, it was rare to see him so relaxed, he hesitated for a moment and decided to tell him what happened early this morning.
"Recently, a smuggling case was revealed in the court, and my father told Gu in private that he wanted you to investigate it."
The author has something to say: Wen Xing: What if you only get paid and don’t work? ? ?
The man was holding an abacus in his hand, and he seemed to be the shopkeeper of this dream restaurant.
"What's wrong?" The bolder one at the next table raised his eyebrows and asked bluntly.
The man in white smiled and said, "Who said plum blossoms embroidered on the sachet must be plum fragrance?"
