The steward, who reported the news, was shocked, then he looked at Jing Heguang with eyes full of envy.
He also wants such rich friends!
However, he is just a servant and can only be greedy.
Jing Heguang frowned.
Jing Heguang was very sure that the way Yue Xingchuan looked at him at the teahouse was clearly unhappy, and even a little bit frightened and angry?
Besides, at that moment Jing Heguang felt a tug in his heart, which was very uncomfortable. After such a long time, he still didn’t forget.
Since Yue Xingchuan doesn’t like him now, why did he send him gold and jewelry to him?
Seeing his son Jing Heguang frowning slightly, Zhao Baozhi quickly spoke and dismissed the steward: “Sixth Prince and lord shizi have known each other since childhood, there’s no need to make a fuss over him sending things over. Have people carry the gold lord shizi’s yard.”
Jing Heguang’s current situation in the court was not good, so Zhao Baozhi felt that she could not let these people find out that there might be something wrong with the ‘good relationship’ between her son and the Sixth Prince.
When the steward left, Zhao Baozhi asked Jing Heguang nervously: “Heguang, what’s going on?! Didn’t you say you only met the Sixth Prince once and haven’t spoken to each other yet? Why did the Sixth Prince send two big boxes of gold here?”
Jing Heguang frowned even more: “I don’t know either. Your child was on the second floor of the teahouse, and the Sixth Prince rode downstairs and passed by on horseback. He only glanced at me when he passed by.”
After hearing this, Zhao Baozhi suddenly laughed: “You stupid boy! What do we both lack?”
Jing Heguang thought for a moment, then said honestly: “Gold and silver.”
“Yes, we are short of gold and silver. The Sixth Prince sent gold and silver, which shows that he really cares about you. After all, you two grew up together. If you were a girl, you two could be considered childhood sweethearts!”
Zhao Baozhi’s thought is simple. If someone treats them well, they must be sincere.
After her natal family fell, Jing Zhonghao didn’t care much about the mother and son. In these years, the mother and son lived on their monthly silver and Zhao Baozhi’s dowry.
Zhao Baozhi’s dowry was secretly subsidized by her natal family a lot, so the mother and son were actually very strapped for money. Now that they suddenly have a fortune of gold, they have much more freedom on their hands.
The things given by the Sixth Prince are so practical. He must be thinking of her son, a former friend!
After all, as a prince, it’s not like he could get anything from her son.
Zhao Baozhi straightened her son’s collar and said happily: “Go back and meet with the Sixth Prince. Have a good chat and rekindle your old friendship.”
“Now that the Sixth Prince has returned victorious, since you have a good relationship with him, I think your colleagues won’t dare to say anything bad about you.” Zhao Baozhi looked dissatisfied when talking about Jing Heguang’s colleagues.
In Zhao Baozhi’s eyes, her son was born very well. His appearance was the best in the capital, and he was also talented. It was normal for everyone to like Jing Heguang.
The late emperor is gone, but what does that have to do with his son? It’s not like her son killed him. Thinking of those rumors, Zhao Baozhi even hoped that her son could have a good relationship with the Sixth Prince.
Jing Heguang was ‘inspired’.
Yue Xingchuan doesn’t like him, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t pay attention to him! The ‘scum’ original owner must have left a deep impression on Yue Xingchuan.
However, Yue Xingchuan’s ‘gold’ gift is definitely not only a gift for Jing Heguang to use, but it should also be a mockery to the ‘original owner’ who values benefits and interests.
It’s just that Yue Xingchuan is a bit stupid. If he gives gold to others, he will suffer a lot!
Jing Heguang mentally beat the original owner again, and then nodded: “Your child knows.”
Seeing that he listened, Zhao Baozhi happily suggested: “Shall we go to your yard?” Take a look at the gold!
Zhao Baozhi now loves her son first and gold and silver second! Only when one has been short of money will they understand the hard times and the importance of gold and silver.
Jing Heguang was still thinking about how to coax her at the dinner table. Seeing that Zhao Baozhi was happy, he agreed.
Besides, the gold sent by Yue Xingchuan was a mockery to the original owner, not him. It was a misunderstanding of ‘love’!
***
Jing Heguang’s yard.
Zhao Baozhi’s eyes almost glowed when she looked at the gold in the two large boxes!
The box was large and heavy, which meant that it wasn’t just a layer of gold on the surface, it was also all gold underneath!
How much would it be to exchange this much gold for silver? In Zhao Baozhi’s heart, the Sixth Prince Yue Xingchuan is already better than Bodhisattva! Even Bodhisattva would not give her son so much gold.
The golden light was too dazzling, even Jing Heguang felt a little bit shocked.
Jing Heguang rubbed his eyes and asked the steward: “What did the people who delivered the things say?”
The steward said with a flattering smile: “Those people only said that they must be delivered to lord shizi. Don’t worry, shizi. Everything will be delivered to you, not one less!”
The Sixth Prince can command two hundred thousand soldiers. He heard that his character is not very good, so there is no way he would dare to offend him.
Jing Heguang nodded and was about to say a few words when he saw a young man sticking his head out from the wall of the courtyard.
Jing Yan looked at the big ingot of gold, a look of jealousy flashed across his face.
He suppressed the envy in his heart and said in a nonchalant tone: “It’s just a touch of gold. I thought it was something good! Father also rewarded my mother and I with two pieces of good jade the day before yesterday.”
When Zhao Baozhi saw this concubine child, her face turned dark. .
Jing Yan was born from Jing Zhonghao and his concubine cousin, it was a thorn in Zhao Baozhi’s heart. That meant that her husband had completely betrayed her and her son.
Zhao Baozhi was shaking with anger, but immediately looked at Jing Heguang worriedly.
Zhao Baozhi has given up on her husband, but she knows that her son has not. Her son still had admiration for that person. Every time Jing Yan showed off something given by Jing Zhonghao, her son would feel uncomfortable.
Seeing Zhao Baozhi looking at him worriedly, Jing Heguang patted the back of her hand.
With this touch, he realized that Zhao Baozhi was so angry that her hands were shaking.
Memories of this concubine child being arrogant flashes in Jing Heguang’s mind immediately, but Jing Zhonghao still favored them.
He frowned and looked at the young man, and said mercilessly: “What kind of good people climb other people’s courtyard walls to peek?”
“Besides, my mother? Where did you get this my mother from? You could only call her this at the end of the day — aunt!”
Jing Heguang was not the original owner who after studying too much, felt that being aggressive would be a disgrace to himself.
Jing Heguang felt that he shouldn’t wait to feel better.
Besides, when he said that, Zhao Baozhi, who was bullied together, must also be very happy!
The original owner had feelings for Jing Zhonghao, his father, but Jing Heguang only felt that since he was born, Jing Zhonghao had never raised him and was not worthy of being a father.
Jing Heguang also doesn’t like unfaithful men, especially the kind that vow and make promises lightly when married. Jing Zhonghao is the kind of person who breaks promises.
The original owner’s thought about Jing Zhonghao was actually unfair and harmful to Zhao Baozhi, but Zhao Baozhi, as a mother, didn’t mind.
Jing Yan originally thought that Jing Heguang would be jealous after hearing his show off, and then he could see the ‘high mountain flower’ losing control. Unexpectedly, Jing Heguang was not jealous this time???
He even retorted that his mother shouldn’t be ‘mother’.
Thinking of his mother’s status as a concubine, Jing Yan blushed with shame. He glared and said, “Dad said my mother is my mother, my mother is my mother!”
Zhao Baozhi snorted coldly: “If you have the guts, go out and say that!” If Jing Yan dares to say that, tomorrow Marquis Zhennan will have to eat the royal historian censor’s report.
After Zhao Baozhi finished speaking, Jing Heguang directly ordered AFu: “AFu, use the pole to stab him down!”
AFu was stunned for a moment, but he was very loyal. After reacting, he gritted his teeth and picked up the mosquito net sweeping pole to stab Jing Yan.
“You dog thing! How dare you poke…” Jing Yan pointed at AFu and cursed angrily.
However, AFu’s pole was aimed at him, so he had no choice but to dodge in a panic.
Without paying attention, he even stepped on the boy, who he stepped on, causing Jing Yan to fall on his butt! Making him scream, ‘Ah!’.
After hearing this, AFu shrank his neck in fear and looked at Jing Heguang worriedly: “Master, master?”
Jing Heguang said: “Don’t be afraid, I will protect you.”
“If he dares to cause trouble in the future, I will teach him a lesson! Just like mother said, in fact, dad will not do anything to us at all. Externally he is afraid that the censor will interfere, and internally I am also his son, what can he do?”
Jing Heguang knew that sometimes one has to be tough when facing evil people.
The steward didn’t even react just now, he just stared blankly.
When did lord shizi become so confident? Could it be that lord shizi really has a good relationship with the Sixth Prince?
It’s definitely right! Otherwise, how could lord shizi dare to stab second young master Yan?
The steward cleverly tried to please Jing Heguang and Zhao Baozhi with a few words before leaving.
After all the outsiders left, Zhao Baozhi looked at her son with curiosity and asked strangely: “Heguang, you…are you not angry this time?”
Generally speaking, Jing Heguang should be more concerned about the jade that Jing Zhonghao gave Jing Yan just now. That’s right, but her son doesn’t seem to care at all today!
Jing Heguang would definitely not act like the original owner, so he made an excuse.
“Today when I saw the army returning, I saw many elderly people crying with joy when they saw their children. It suddenly occurred to me that if I ever have that day, the only one who would shed tears for me would be mother.”
“Mother, your child was not sensible before, but now I understand. You are the best person to your child. Us, mother and son, were not in Jing Zhonghao’s heart at all. In your child’s heart, he will no longer be my father!”
After hearing this, Zhao Baozhi was both happy and a little worried.
She was happy for her son’s change, but she knew very well that this change was because he was sad enough that he had given up.
Zhao Baozhi felt extremely distressed and hugged half of her son’s body: “No matter where you are, you always have mother.”
Jing Heguang was tall, and Zhao Baozhi, who was petite, could not fully hug him.
My son has really grown up! Zhao Baozhi thought happily.
Jing Heguang suddenly thought: If he hadn’t come, how sad would Zhao Baozhi have been when Jing Heguang and Zhao Yiliu got their comeuppance?
Jing Heguang hugged her and said, “Mom, your child is not sad, and don’t worry. Your child will respect you in the future!”
AFu, who was by the side, looking, burst into tears.
Even he was a little confused, why didn’t he notice that many people were crying? He, a book boy, is not as careful as his lord shizi. This is so not good!
***
While Jing Heguang was accompanying Zhao Baozhi, Yue Xingchuan was also accompanying the empress dowager in the palace.
The empress dowager looked at her youngest son, who was dressed in black and had a gloomy aura around him, and touched Yue Xingchuan’s much rougher face, feeling so distressed that she burst into tears.
Her youngest son was not like this before. He used to be a fair-skinned boy who liked to wear blue clothes and looked well-behaved.
The empress dowager hugged Yue Xingchuan and cried, then said to Yue Feijun: “Feijun, your little brother has suffered a lot. You must treat him well in the future! Otherwise, this empress dowager won’t let you go.”
Yue Feijun also felt distressed about his little brother’s changes. Now that he also knows something about it, he felt that it was not easy for his little brother. He nodded and said: “Imperial mother, don’t worry, I will treat my little brother well.”
Only Yue Xingchuan felt a little unbearable, it was too sappy…
Yue Xingchuan coaxed the empress dowager for a while, and then ran away with Yue Feijun.
***
After leaving the empress dowager’s palace, Yue Xingchuan took out the tiger token from his arms and threw it on Yue Feijun.
Yue Feijun hurriedly caught it and said: “Xingchuan, this is the tiger token after all. Be careful.”
Yue Xingchuan said: “Brother, are you planning to hold a celebration banquet and reward tomorrow?”
Yue Feijun nodded: “That’s right. You should rest for a day. There will be a celebration banquet tomorrow, and then you will be rewarded based on your merits. Since you’re here, come with me to pick a title you like.”
The two brothers have had a good relationship since they were young, so Yue Feijin never calls himself zhen in front of his younger brother.
Yue Xingchuan was not interested in the title, so he asked his brother: “Can we turn the celebration banquet into a hunting trip in Xishan?”
Yue Feijun was surprised: “Turn a celebration banquet into a hunting trip in Xishan? If you want, sure. But going to Xishan is more troublesome, why did you think of this?”
Yue Xingchuan thought to himself, he couldn’t tell his brother about his despicable plan.
Yue Xingchuan used the reason he hadn’t been to Xishan for a long time to fool Yue Feijun. Yue Feijun felt sorry for his brother, so he immediately agreed.
***
Returning to the main hall, the smile on Yue Feijun’s face in front of his younger brother disappeared. He secretly talks to the imperial doctor.
Yue Feijun asked with a straight face: “Doctor, let me ask you, when a person kills too many people in a war that it affects his temperament, causes insomnia, manic depression, gloomy temperament, and sometimes even uncontrollable killing urge. Is there a way to cure this situation?”
The imperial doctor felt his heart skip a beat. Who else could the emperor ask about such a condition personally?
Taking a closer look at the symptoms, the imperial doctor was standing there with cold sweat pouring out of his head.
Yue Feijun said with a dark face: “Doctor, just say it. I won’t chop off your head just because you tell the truth. Likewise, don’t hide anything from me.”
The imperial doctor, considering his words over and over, then finally said bravely: “Replied to your majesty, I have heard of this kind of illness. However, the situation mentioned by your majesty is already very, very serious…so we can only observe it slowly.”
The imperial doctor knows about this illness and is afraid that he will have to be the one to treat it. To put it lightly, if he fails to cure the illness, he will be doomed. The best thing to do now is to tell the truth.
When Yue Feijun heard the truth, his heart sank.
Next, Yue Feijun listened to some treatment methods with this depressed mood.
After asking the imperial doctor to retreat, Yue Feijun told the eunuch beside him: “The celebration banquet will be replaced by hunting in Xishan. Remember to ask the people on Xishan to release more deer that Xingchuan likes to eat.”
The first sentence is very gentle, but the next sentence is majestic: “There’s also those that used to study together with him in the imperial academy. Xingchuan said that he wants to see them, tell everyone to go, no one should be left behind!”
***
On the same day, news spread from the palace that the celebration banquet was changed to hunting in Xishan.
At Marquis Zhennan Mansion, the eunuch who came out of the palace notified Marquis Zhennan first, and then went to Jing Heguang’s courtyard.
“Lord shizi, the celebration banquet in the palace tomorrow will be changed to hunting in Xishan. You must go, his majesty has named you.”
Jing Heguang was extremely satisfied when he heard that the palace banquet was changed to hunting in Xishan!
At the celebration banquet in the palace, the seats were arranged according to official position and rank. His position will definitely be far away from Yue Xingchuan. He’s afraid that one night’s contact would be limited to when he toast Yue Xingchuan.
However, if it switches to hunting in Xishan, he will have more chances to find Yue Xingchuan! Thinking about two people riding horses in the mountains and forests, with him showing off his skills and hunting down a few prey, it’s so beautiful!
Jing Heguang said: “Don’t worry, gonggong. Heguang will definitely go there and won’t forget.”
Seeing that he gave a positive answer, the eunuch went to the next house.
***
As soon as the people in the palace left, Jing Heguang happily asked AFu to find a bow and arrows and let him practice his skills. Fortunately, the original owner also knew archery, which saved Jing Heguang from having to find excuses to explain.
In modern times, Jing Heguang archery accuracy is good.
However, after changing his body, of course he has to practice first to avoid any accident on the spot, which would be embarrassing and shameful.
AFu took out the bow and arrows and hung the simple target on the wall.
After finishing it, AFu worriedly warned: “Lord shizi, shoot less arrows, so as not to get sore arms later.”
Jing Heguang said: “I’m only trying it out.”
Jing Heguang stood away, with the arrow on the string, he pulled the bowstring back.
Aim at the target and let go. The arrow pierce into the target like a meteor!
This arrow was between the fifth and sixth rings, but AFu was dumbfounded at the sight. He shouted happily: “Lord Shizi! It hit!”
Jing Heguang smiled and shot two more arrows in succession.
These two are more stable, at the eighth and ninth ring.
After a few more shots, it hit the red target. Jing Heguang put away the bow and arrow with confidence.
AFu was overjoyed: “Lord shizi, you are so powerful. You have made such great progress, you will definitely shine tomorrow!”
The original owner can shoot arrows, but his interest is not in it, so usually only five out of ten arrows hit. Now Jing Heguang only shot a few arrows and it all hit, which is a huge improvement.
Jing Heguang shook his arms and thought: It would be great if AFu could cheer for Yue Xingchuan tomorrow!
But in addition to getting in touch tomorrow, should he also prepare a thank-you gift?
Thinking of this, Jing Heguang went to the room to look for something to make a gift.
Due to financial constraints, Jing Heguang’s total net worth didn’t add up to much.
Jing Heguang searched for a long time before he found a fat little jade tiger.
The little tiger is very small, but really cute. Jing Heguang felt better looking at the little tiger, so he put the little tiger in his pouch and prepared to take it with him tomorrow.
In addition to the little tiger, Jing Heguang went back and found a few more things, and then asked Zhao Baozhi how many more things she wanted to add. Only then did he prepare a thank you gift.
***
Jing Heguang kept himself busy until very late, then washes, bathed, and went to bed.
However, Yue Xingchuan was lying on the big bed in the palace until midnight, feeling restless and unable to sleep even when he closed his eyes, as if he was still on the distant battlefield.
Li Da, who was on duty at night, felt very uncomfortable when he heard the churning inside.
By the end of the war, the old men in the army were actually already tired of it. But they can only persist in order to protect their country and the people behind them.
A person like Li Da, who is optimistic, is not really affected.
However, Yue Xingchuan later became the commander-in-chief, and the pressure of the entire army fell on him alone, so he often couldn’t sleep. In addition, Yue Xingchuan himself is a fierce general, often fighting in front, so he has accumulated great murder intents.
When they discovered that something was wrong, Yue Xingchuan’s situation was already serious. He single-handedly killed all the dozens of deserters on the opposite side, leaving not one alive.
—Yue Xingchuan is out of control!
The soldiers who saw the bloody scene were shocked and silently blocked the news. Yue Xingchuan no longer went into battle to kill the enemy in person.
But even so, Yue Xingchuan’s gradually changing aura became more and more fierce and compelling, becoming more intimidating day by day and causing more people to avoid him.
However, who knew that the terrifying general in silver armor during the day would even have trouble sleeping?
On the big nanmu bed.
As Yue Xingchuan recited the Clear Heart Sutra, he felt his head getting swollen even more.
He simply gave up chanting the damn scripture and started thinking randomly.
Yue Xingchuan thought of Jing Heguang’s face again. It used to be a little thin, but now there is no imperfection.
It’s really good-looking…Just thinking about that face, Yue Xingchuan felt that his breathing seemed a little smoother.
The feeling of breathing smoothly is so comfortable. Yue Xingchuan stood up and asked: “What time is it?”
Li Dazheng replied: “Replied to General, it’s the third watch(midnight).”
Yue Xingchuan said: “Oh, everyone should be asleep then.”
Li Da was puzzled by this, then he saw his general stood up, put on his clothes, put on his boots, then went out.
“Just follow me.”
Yue Xingchuan said that, then took Li Da out.
The general couldn’t sleep in the middle of the night, so Li Da had done this many times. This time Li Da also thought that his general felt suffocated in the room and came out to take a breath.
Who knew…his general went directly to someone else’s mansion!
Li Da was not familiar with the capital and he did not deliver the things personally during the day, otherwise he would know that this is Marquis Zhennan Mansion.
However, when he went all the way in and Li Da caught AFu, who fainted after his acupoint was hit. Li Da now knew that this was the home of that beautiful shizi.
Thinking of the two boxes of gold to please the beauty, and the general’s plan for tomorrow, Li Da smiled silently and watched his general quietly enter the beauty’s room.
As for his three views, Li Da’s three views are not very good when it comes to trivial matters, it even a bit wretched. He only wants his general to be happy.
In the room Yue Xingchuan entered.
In the darkness, Yue Xingchuan, who had excellent eyesight, immediately saw the person on the bed.
Sure enough, seeing this man made him feel more relaxed. This kind of comfort was just like the feeling when he saw the smile on Jing Heguang’s face before.
Now, Jing Heguang had his arms draped outside the quilt, sleeping unconsciously.
Yue Xingchuan came closer and pressed Jing Hegunag’s acupoints, making Jing Heguang sleep until dawn.
After making him sleep, Yue Xingchuan sat down on the edge of the bed.
After sitting down, Yue Xingchuan confirmed: he used to hate this person’s touch, but now he likes being close to Jing Heguang. Being close to Jing Heguang makes him feel comfortable.
Yue Xingchuan stretched out a finger and poked Jing Heguang’s face.
It was soft, smooth, and more tender than the skin of the little baby he once rescued.
The little baby at the border got blown by the wind all day long, so their skin is naturally not as good as those people raised in the capital. Even Yue Xingchuan himself had very rough skin, which made the empress dowager feel extremely distressed during the day.
Yue Xingchuan touched him, then put Jing Heguang’s hands back into the bed, and then he did nothing. He looked at Jing Heguang. His mind slowly calmed down, and he actually felt sleepy.
Yue Xingchuan looked at Jing Heguang’s big bed and hesitated.
However, he had insomnia and often had bad dreams when he fell asleep, and he felt even more uncomfortable when he woke up. This situation had lasted for more than a year, but the temptation to get a good night’s sleep was too great.
A thought came to Yue Xingchuan’s mind — he is a pervert anyway, and he was even more like a sick pervert now. Thus, he took off his boots and coat with peace of mind and lay down on the bed.
Accompanied by the steady breathing next to him and the light fragrance of the person next to him after bathing, Yue Xingchuan fell asleep.
Li Da waited outside for a while. Estimating the time, his general had been inside for more than two quarters of an hour, and he began to feel confused.
—It’s been a while, but there’s still no sound inside?! What is his general doing inside?
After not seeing the person for two hour, Li Da was a little worried, so he entered the door.
Yue Xingchuan woke up as soon as there was a sound at the door, and glanced over sharply. He turned over and touched the short blade at his waist, vigilantly.
Seeing that it was Li Da, Yue Xingchuan relaxed, his eyes became gloomy as he said a little impatiently: “Call me again in an hour.”
Li Da was very pleasantly surprised. If he read correctly, just now his general should be asleep! This is an unprecedented good thing.
Li Da suggested: “How about two hours?”
Yue Xingchuan rolled his eyes at him: “One.” After two hours, it is almost dawn.
Besides, he has business to do tomorrow.
Tomorrow, before he talks to Jing Heguang, he will save the beauty once. Scholars are the most particular. Like this, the thought of separation from him in Jing Heguang’s heart will be completely destroyed.
Yue Xingchuan made his calculations, looked sideways at Jing Heguang’s face, then sneered in a low voice: “You should also like the promotion?”
After a few nonsense words, Yue Xingchuan, who was still a little sleepy, fell asleep again.
An hour later, Li Da woke up Yue Xingchuan and the two left.
On the way back to the palace, Li Da looked at Yue Xingchuan, who was feeling much better, and asked excitedly: “General, when will we bring him into the palace?”
A few of Yue Xingchuan’s black hair, that was scattered from the sleep, swayed in the night wind. He glanced at him with his dark eyes: “If you work hard tomorrow, he will be taken in as soon as possible.”
But in his heart, he thought, based on what happened in the strange dream just now, he seemed to be…the one who should be ‘married1The married here is like a woman getting married. There are different words for a man and woman when getting married’?
The author has something to say: A fat two-in-one.
Xingxing is really sick in this world, I am so cruel.
But it’s okay, his core is still sweet. There will be sweet tomorrow!
