Yue Xingchuan was unhappy because he couldn’t see the face he liked.
Yes, it’s just the face.
When Yue Xingchuan was eight years old, he met Jing Heguang, the legitimate son of Marquis Zhennan Mansion. Jing Heguang is his companion.
After Jing Heguang grew up, Yue Xingchuan realized that he liked Jing Heguang’s face, and his smile would make him happy.
When Jing Heguang looked upset and sad, he would feel like there was something stuck in his heart.
At that time, the innocent Yue Xingchuan thought — this is love.
However, when Jing Heguang told him that he liked him, Yue Xingchuan felt no reaction in his heart, as if he had taken a sip of plain water and felt nothing in his heart.
Yue Xingchuan doesn’t like physical contact with Jing Heguang, and even feels repelled.
Truly liking someone is not like this.
Just like Yue Xingchuan could see, Jing Heguang told him that he liked him but he actually wanted to use him!
Yue Xingchuan knew that he might be a little abnormal. He only liked the face, not the person.
However, the other party was not sincere anyway, so Yue Xingchuan agreed to be with Jing Heguang.
To make himself happy, he would occasionally do things to make Jing Heguang smile.
He hasn’t seen that face for many years, so he naturally has some longing for it. Yue Xingchuan originally thought he could see that face in the honorary queue, but he didn’t expect Jing Heguang to dare not come!
In the past few years, he has been fighting outside, rising from a soldier to the commander of an army. Though he has not returned to the capital for many years, as a prince, he has many people under his command, so it is not difficult to get to know one or two people.
Come to think of it, Jing Heguang may have thought he was out fighting and didn’t know anything, but he knew everything.
Humph, cousin?
As Yue Xingchuan thought, a flash of blood seemed to flash before his eyes.
Years of killing had finally affected his temperament. Yue Xingchuan tried hard to control the murderous intention in his heart, so as not to frighten the simple people around him with his aura.
Walking past many shops, Yue Xingchuan heard countless sounds.
One of the voices was familiar to him. Yue Xingchuan raised his head and looked towards the second floor of Juxian Tea House.
***
Jing Heguang sat at the table by the window, sipping tea, and listening to the noisy shouts cheering for the army. He felt happy in his heart.
AFu shouted in his ears again: “they’re coming! They’re really coming!”
Jing Heguang said: “You’re not going to lie to me again, are you? We were approaching the city gate but you called me here.”
AFu said excitedly: “This time it’s true! Lord shizi, listen!”
The cheers from below were really loud. Jing Heguang listened, then stood up by the window and looked down.
With this glance, he met a pair of cold eyes.
Wearing armor, riding a horse and walking in front, with scars on his face…
This handsome and cool guy is Yue Xingchuan?!
Jing Heguang felt that he was really superficial. His first thought was…So handsome!
Yue Xingchuan, as his name suggests, has sword eyebrows and starry eyes. He’s extremely heroic. His silver armor only adds to his masculinity.
His second thought was even more terrifying. Jing Heguang felt very distressed and wanted to touch the scar on his face.
It can be seen that it is an old scar. However, he doesn’t know how long it took for the wound to heal, and the scar is also half a finger wide. One can imagine how dangerous it is when he gets injured, and it must also be very painful!
However, Yue Xingchuan below glanced at him, then frowned.
He doesn’t like me? Thinking of this, Jing Heguang’s heart clenched.
Yue Xingchuan, who is below, was extremely shocked, so the expression on his face changed.
Yue Xingchuan looked at that face and felt that it looked better. It was nice to see…Now he wanted to chop up that cousin and take this person back. It would be best to take off those clothes…
When did he get those barbarians’ bad habit of robbing women!
This idea is very wrong, very wrong!
One has to know that, in the past, even Jing Heguang would avoid him if he touched him.
Yue Xingchuan frowned and stared at Jing Heguang.
It wasn’t until he passed Juxian Tea House that a ridiculous thought appeared in Yue Xingchuan’s mind — he wouldn’t have fallen in love with Jing Heguang, the ‘person’, after falling in love with Jing Heguang’s face, right?!
***
Watching Yue Xingchuan turn his head away ‘mercilessly’, Jing Heguang felt an uncomfortable sense of loss in his heart.
He remembered that sentence — I’m looking for someone, he is my Xingxing.
Yue Xingchuan, Yue Xingchuan? He is my Xingxing…
They matched!
Besides, as long as he treats Yue Xingchuan well, the mission issued by the system will be completed. He must have traveled to this world for Yue Xingchuan!
It’s just that Yue Xingchuan doesn’t like him now.
Jing Heguang figured out what the original owner had done, and then realized that it would be strange if Yue Xingchuan liked him now.
During the six years of separation, the original owner never sent a letter or even a word to Yue Xingchuan. Moreover, since he obtained the shizi position, the original owner has neglected Yue Xingchuan. His intention to throw him away after using him is very obvious.
Maybe the young Yue Xingchuan didn’t notice the original owner’s true face, but the current Yue Xingchuan six years later must know clearly that the original owner only intends to take advantage of him!
He doesn’t like the person but still tries to deceive their feelings to gain benefits. What a scumbag! Jing Heguang became angry just thinking about it and wanted to drag the original owner out and give him a good beating.
However, even if the original owner is killed, the current problem still exists.
Since Jing Heguang wants to be with Yue Xingchuan, he will have to bear the reputation of throwing it away after use and not paying attention to Yue Xingchuan for six years.
Truly…won’t he be stabbed to death by the heavenly halberd?
Jing Heguang, with his big head, looked at the cheering crowd under the window and started thinking about the future.
AFu saw that his lord shizi looked expressionlessly under the window for a long time, so he couldn’t help but say: “lord shizi, his highness the sixth prince may not have seen you for a long time, so he may have felt unfamiliar.”
When the Sixth Prince was still the Sixth Prince, his lord shizi was his reading companion. AFu remembered that the two had a good relationship. They even avoid servants like them and whisper.
His lord shizi doesn’t have many friends. Maybe he is unhappy because he was treated coldly by the Sixth Prince?
Thinking like this, AFu advised: “lord shizi, you are so good-looking. The most beautiful woman in the capital is not as good-looking as you. If you smile more, you will definitely have many friends!”
AFu thought to himself: If the sixth prince is no good, let’s find another one.
Jing Heguang touched his face and directly changed the ‘friend’ to Yue Xingchuan. He nodded: “Okay! I will smile at him more in the future.”
Thinking of a solution, although Yue Xingchuan doesn’t like him now, Jing Heguang is not afraid.
The original owner was such a skill player before, so the original owner could ‘cheat’ the person. Now that Jing Heguang is sincere, he will definitely be able to succeed faster than his original owner.
As for why the original owner was successful, Jing Heguang speculated that it might be because his Xingxing is too nice. The original owner talked about it casually and Yue Xingchuan believed him. Yue Xingchuan was too easily deceived!
AFu: ???
AFu was a little confused. By this he meant…the Sixth Prince?
AFu’s heart trembled when he thought of the Sixth Prince who just passed by and was three times colder than his lord shizi.
Oh my god! One is colder than the other. He’s afraid the two of them won’t talk even if they sit together!
After Jing Heguang thought about it, he quickly thought of his ‘Xingxing chasing plan’ and said, “Let’s go! We’re going back.” Intention is not as good as action.
***
Marquis Zhennan Mansion.
When Jing Heguang returned to the Marquis Mansion, he went directly to the inner courtyard to find his nominal mother, Zhao Baozhi.
In the inner courtyard, Zhao Baozhi was doing embroidery accompanied by her niece Zhao Yiliu, making clothes for her rich and handsome son.
Zhao Baozhi is less than forty this year, but she has patches of gray hair on her head, which she carefully covers with a wig.
Her son, who won first place, should finally become famous. Who would have thought that the late emperor went directly there, which made her son not only embarrassed but also get ridiculed behind his back.
Zhao Baozhi felt comfortable thinking that the Sixth Prince would come back and her son would have more backers.
Just as she was thinking about it, Jing Heguang came.
Zhao Baozhi stood up happily: “Heguang! Why did you come here without saying a word? Are you going to have lunch at mother’s place?”
Zhao Baozhi was happy. Zhao Yiliu, who looked up shyly at Jing Heguang, is also happy.
Jing Heguang, however, felt cold at the sight.
When he saw this girl now, he thought of one phrase — ‘three thousand knives’.
Jing Heguang said to Zhao Baozhi: “Mom, the servants were already coming over and your son also arrived by himself, don’t make them take another trip.”
Jing Heguang explained, and then said: “By the way, your son has something to talk to you alone.”
The word ‘alone’ is pronounced more heavily by Jing Heguang.
Zhao Baozhi glanced at her niece and thought that it might be business, so she said to her niece: “Liu’er, your cousin likes to eat Babao duck. Please help me go to the kitchen and tell them that.”
Zhao Yiliu nodded obediently and went to the kitchen.
After her niece left, Zhao Baozhi asked with a smile: “What do you want to tell mom? You also avoid your cousin too.”
Jing Heguang asked: “Mom, is cousin turning eighteen this year?”
When Zhao Baozhi heard this, she thought with surprise: Could it be that my son, who was devoted to studying, finally got the idea?!
It would be better to get married as soon as possible. She also wants to have a grandson! Thus, Zhao Baozhi looked at Jing Heguang with even more expectant eyes.
Zhao Baozhi said happily: “Yes, your cousin is already eighteen. Not long ago, your aunt wrote a letter asking me to consider your cousin’s marriage as soon as possible.”
Zhao Baozhi specifically mentioned her son’s aunt, just to see how anxious her son will be. Who makes this kid usually have a cold face and seem to only care about ‘books’?
Who knew…
Her son, who was usually cold and indifferent, actually had a smile on his face and said: “Mom, aunt’s priority is right! Cousin is already so old, so it’s not good for her to stay in our house all the time. It’s time for her to get married. You should also pay attention to her and find her a husband.” He looked genuinely happy.
Zhao Baozhi’s face turned pale. She said anxiously: “But, but mother plans to leave Liu’er to you. Liu’er has a good temper, and mother knows her temperament. If a new daughter-in-law comes in, who knows how she will be?”
Jing Heguang stopped smiling, frowned and said seriously: “Mom, I don’t like cousin.”
Jing Heguang likes men, so of course he will not have anything to do with Zhao Yiliu.
Since Jing Heguang was not interested in Zhao Yiliu, it was not appropriate for Zhao Yiliu to stay at her aunt’s house. It would not be good for Zhao Yiliu’s reputation. It was better to let Zhao Yiliu get married now that she is at the right age.
Jing Heguang’s inner plan — solve the internal problems first, and then pursue Yue Xingchuan.
Between her son and niece, the flesh that falls off her body is definitely more important.
Moreover, if a man doesn’t like a woman and is forced to marry her, both the man and the woman will be unhappy but the woman will suffer more.
Zhao Baozhi looked at her son’s firm face and nodded with red eyes: “I’ll talk to your cousin when she comes back.”
Jing Heguang took out a handkerchief and wiped his mother, who had shallow wrinkles on her face, tears: “This is a good thing, please don’t crying.”
Zhao Baozhi was a little depressed and did not want to talk about it anymore. She casually asked about her son’s outing: “Heguang, you met the Sixth Prince today. Did you talk to him?”
Jing Heguang shook his head: “I saw him but we didn’t talk.”
But he will try his best!
***
While Jing Heguang was working hard to ‘marry off his cousin’, Yue Xingchuan stood in his new palace, having just taken off his armor.
Yue Xingchuan found himself stunned and still thinking about that face.
Feeling that his body was boiling with heat, Yue Xingchuan impatiently pulled open the clothes on his chest, revealing a large area of his muscular chest.
When the wind blew, his body felt cooler.
Yue Xingchuan, who had been deep in thought for a while, suddenly smiled and shouted to his soldier outside the door: “Li Da!”
After hearing this, Li Da entered the room and looked at the general’s smile…which was a bit scary. His body suddenly tightened.
Could it be that the palace is a mess and the general wants to punish people again? Although the general loves his soldiers, if they make mistakes, he will punish them very harshly.
Yue Xingchuan ordered: “Go and dig out two boxes of gold from the warehouse and send them to Jing Heguang, the eldest son of Marquis Zhennan.”
Yue Xingchuan remembered that Marquis Zhennan favored his concubines, so he thought Jing Heguang should be in a tight spot now, thus he should give him money first.
“He seems to have a good relationship with his mother?” Yue Xingchuan murmured, touching his chin and said, “Go and look through two more boxes of jewelry for jewelry and send them over together.”
After saying this, Yue Xingchuan threw the token for taking things from the warehouse to Li Da.
Li Da felt strange, but it was just a gift, so there was nothing scary about it.
Li Da took the token and said: “Yes, I will go to the warehouse to get the things right now.”
“Wait a minute, all the jewelry must be old-style and suitable for my mother’s age.”
Yue Xingchuan added a sentence. He didn’t want the things he gave to be used on Jing Heguang’s laborious cousin.
The reason he was giving things to them was because Yue Xingchuan remembered that although he and Jing Heguang had ignored each other for six years since he left, they had never said they broke up at the beginning!
Therefore, he is still Jing Heguang’s ‘lover’. However, he still felt a little unfamiliar.
First, test and get in touch with each other through their previous identities. It would be best if Jing Heguang is willing to be with him. If Jing Heguang is unwilling, then he can only take him by force.
He’s a pervert anyway. The more he, Xingchuan, likes, the more he must get Jing Hehuang.
Even if…Jing Heguang doesn’t like him.
Thinking of this, Yue Xingchuan exuded a gloomy and terrifying pressure without knowing it.
***
On the other side, Jing Heguang was having lunch.
At the dinner table, he didn’t even look at Zhao Yiliu. He only used serving chopsticks to pick up two pieces of food for Zhao Baozhi.
Zhao Yiliu was also puzzled. Even if her cousin, lord shizi, is usually cold, he isn’t so reticent.
So…what did her cousin, lord shizi, say to her little aunt after she left?
The reason why the dinner table is quiet is actually very simple.
Although Zhao Baozhi agreed with Jing Heguang’s idea, she was still angry and obviously didn’t want to pay attention to him.
Jing Heguang didn’t know how to coax Zhao Baozhi, so he didn’t speak, intending to show his courtesy later.
As for talking to Zhao Yiliu?
No matter what, Jing Heguang now has a psychological shadow. Three thousand cuts, one cut after another, and he died with the last cut. It was really terrifying.
Among the three of them, one was angry and the other was deliberately silent. It would be strange if the atmosphere can be warmed up.
Just after lunch, the steward from the front yard hurried over.
“Madam! Lord shizi! I have something to report to you.”
Zhao Baozhi said, dissatisfied: “What’s happened to make you so panic?”
The steward replied: “The Sixth Prince sent someone to deliver something to the lord shizi. He sent…two big boxes of gold! There are also two large boxes of valuable jewelry!”
The people who came to deliver the things were all rough soldiers. After delivering the things, according to the custom of delivering things in the military camp, they opened the boxes directly for the steward to check.
As soon as the two big boxes were opened, the bright golden color blinded the steward!
