Chapter 34 Hug
Chapter 34 Hug
The ice on the ornamental pond in the Jingsi courtyard has broken, and the water level has risen. In addition, the spring has started to be cold and rainy in recent days, and there are several koi carp overflowing from the huge scenic pond.
When the sky was gray and gray, a few young servants came to the yard.
The servants cleaned up the koi overflowing from the pond lightly, the slight movement was like a bird scurrying lightly, which did not disturb the owner of the yard at all.
Xiao Yan lifted the veil behind the Xuan window, and there was a harmonious spring scene outside the window.
He lowered his eyes, staring at the small Ganoderma lucidum growing quietly in the porcelain basin, and touched its mushroom cap that grew a little with his fingertips.
The growth rate of the little ganoderma is getting faster and faster. Xiao Yan will cut fresh blood and water it every day before going to bed. The ganoderma that has absorbed the blood of his heart, the grayish-white color seems to reveal a little reddish, plump and moist, and there is no trace of premature stipe. Withered and shriveled.
Xiao Yan smiled lightly and said, "I will change the pot for you today, it is no longer worthy of you."
Soon, Manager Liu sent two exquisite flower pots.
The thousand-year-old golden pear tree from the South China Sea and the thousand-year-old white jade from Grace Country have been turned into two exquisite classical flower pots by skillful craftsmen. Xiao Yan picked up one of them in a good mood. Gently transplant the roots of the small Ganoderma lucidum together with the wrapped soil into the flowerpot of the golden pear flower.
Holding up the flower pot, he couldn't help touching the cap of the little Ganoderma lucidum, his eyes filled with admiration.
Manager Liu cleared his throat, and said at the right time: "Grand Master, Mr. Chu wants to see you."
Xiao Yan's smile disappeared: "Let him wait."
Manager Liu took the words and left, Xiao Yan affectionately touched the plump and fresh mushroom cap of the ganoderma lucidum, and murmured: "It would be great if everyone was as obedient as you, little ganoderma lucidum, you said that those who have betrayed deserve to die. "
Xiao Yan meandered to Yanjiao after noon.
The mountain is secluded, surrounded by strange formations of the Five Elements, and the gorgeous sedan chair that drove in quickly disappeared in the misty misty rain and green mist.
The sedan chair stopped in a secluded garden, and the little servant opened the jade curtain to greet the master respectfully.
The figure in the fog blue plain shirt got out of the car slowly, Xiao Yan stepped into the cabinet, and the men in the hall seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time, and hurriedly greeted him.
"Junior brother, I finally look forward to you."
The man's face is upright, it can be seen that he has lost a lot of weight recently, and the bones of his face are protruding.
Xiao Yan quietly avoided the man's touch.
"I've been busy these days."
Xiao Chu looked at the empty hand and smiled embarrassingly.
"Junior brother is so busy that he has become a real brother."
Xiao Yan sat cross-legged lazily, it was raining lightly outside the window, and the fire in the room was burning the old wine, the aroma of the wine was clear, and he knew it was good wine before it entered his throat.
He picked up the white porcelain wine glass and put it on his fingertips to play with. He looked at Xiao Chu with half a smile but didn't speak.
Xiao Chu sat on the other side, with his hands neatly folded in front of his knees.
Xiao Yan never lacked patience.
After a stick of incense passed, Xiao Chu's hair was dripping with sweat.
Xiao Yan poured two glasses of wine, and slowly pushed one glass to Xiao Chu.
"Senior brother, please."
Xiao Chu retorted with a dry smile: "The identity of the younger brother has long since changed from what it used to be, so I, the older brother, should offer you a toast first."
Xiao Yan lowered her eyes, shook her head and smiled, raised her head and drank the wine in the glass without hesitation.
There is a white porcelain pot in the pavilion, and it is the Tianluo Xianlan that was sent to Xiao Chu not long after Xiao Yan came back.
Tianluo fairy orchid is paid tribute by Yuguo. The flowers and leaves are holy, just like the white snow in Tianshan Mountain, and the variety is precious.
The Queen Mother in the palace had one plant, and Xiao Ni gave the remaining plant to Xiao Chu.
He shook the wine in the glass and said: "Senior brother has raised this Tianluo Xianlan well."
Xiao Chu smiled and said: "It is much easier to plant than those flowers and plants in the backyard. Although it is expensive and beautiful, it is not squeamish."
Xiao Yan lightly raised his hand, drank the wine in the glass, caught a glimpse of Xiao Chu's dodging gaze from the corner of his eye.
He lazily leaned on the back of the chair, and the wine soaked Xiao Yan's slightly pale lips due to taking blood for a long time.
He put the cup in the tiger's mouth to play with, and the dark and deep eyes shone with light, which was unpredictable.
"Wine is good wine, even this sapphire fairy glass is the only one."
The coals in the stove exploded, and Xiao Yan gently put down the Qingyu Xianliu cup, and said with a smile: "Brother, don't you think that I will do it a second time?"
Xiao Chu lowered his head and said as if nothing had happened: "What do you mean, Junior Brother? Could it be that it doesn't suit your wishes, or..."
The corner of Xiao Yan's mouth twitched: "Why, could it be that senior brother hasn't figured it out yet?"
He propped up his chin: "Brother, I haven't figured out how to find an excuse to fool my Zen mind, didn't you wipe the snow on the wine glass?"
Xiao Chu suddenly raised his head.
Xiao Yan's fingers rested on the front of his chin, and his eyes were smiling, but it was creepy.
"I didn't die, brother is very disappointed."
Xiao Chu forced a smile, and took a few steps back, his face pale.
"What did the younger brother say, I invited you to drink, but the younger brother said that the Zen heart is snowing, what do you mean by that? And... I, I never poisoned you!"
Xiao Yan looked pitifully, but without the slightest affection.
He looked at Xiao Chu's flustered face, and said in a calm tone, "I have evidence not long after I woke up from poisoning, senior brother, you know...why I sent someone to send you away as soon as I returned to Yandu,"
Xiao Yan smiled: "It's not because I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself."
"Although this place is secluded, as long as senior brother obediently stays here forever, I will guarantee you a lifetime of rich clothes and fine food, leisure and ease."
He paused like a sigh: "But why is senior brother so anxious to see me?"
There is a way to heaven if you don’t go, and there is no way to hell you throw yourself into.
Xiao Chu's face changed in shock, and all the words that were about to come out of his mouth were choked in his throat.
Xiao Yan's eyebrows and eyes were soft, and his handsome face appeared a bit cold and calm under the floating gauze curtain.
Xiao Chu's back was cold, he retreated again and again until his whole body was on the red drum beating surface, and he barely stabilized his figure by holding on to the drumstick as if he was exhausted.
He licked his lips, and the fingers under the wide sleeves turned white: "Junior brother means...you want to kill me?"
Xiao Yan slightly bent the corners of her lips, and the sapphire fairy cup that she was playing with her fingertips fell to the ground as if accidentally slipping.
He has compassionate eyes, plain clothes and hairpins, he is as noble as a fairy, but his methods are like hell Shura, killing people without blinking an eye.
"Brother was stupid since childhood, congratulations on finally guessing right this time."
Xiao Chu interrupted sharply: "No!"
Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows and became interested: "Why?"
Xiao Chu's hands and feet trembled, and he tried his best to find a chance to survive.
"Master is to us... as close as flesh and blood, and we are reborn together. Before he died, he entrusted you to protect me for the rest of his life..."
Xiao Chu muttered to himself, as if he had found a reassurance, and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, you have to protect me for the rest of your life. This is what Master asked. You are Master's favorite student. Do you want to disobey Master's orders?!"
Xiao Yan couldn't help but flick his wide sleeves.
He said leisurely: "I think the master is alone and lonely in the bottom, so I sent my brother to accompany me earlier, and I will do my part."
Xiao Chu's arms trembled, sweat pouring down from his body.
He couldn't hold it any longer, and his whole body slid down against the drum.
The wind that slipped into the small building blew the misty blue clothes slightly, Xiao Yan looked down on Xiao Chu like a handsome and beautiful banished fairy, looking down at Xiao Chu with both compassion and indifference.
Xiao Chu tremblingly wiped off the sweat from his eyelids, and swallowed.
No matter how much he begged for mercy, it would not help, he cursed.
"You, you will die badly. It's been like this since you were a child. Master just praises you, but you will suppress me no matter what you do... I will not let you go even if I am a ghost!"
"It would be fine if I didn't have you. It's all because of you that I became like this. Xiao Yan, why didn't you get poisoned to death, why didn't you die—"
The corner of Xiao Yan's mouth twitched: "Without me, do senior brothers think that they would become Grand Master Xiao?"
Xiao Chu was a little dazed, and when he heard this, he nodded immediately, his eyes frantic.
The thin face made Xiao Chu's staring eye sockets more protruding, his brows were tightly wrinkled, and his expression was painful and sad.
Xiao Chu's feelings for Xiao Yan, from the brotherhood in the early childhood, gradually became distorted under the background of their completely different career careers, and after hints from those old foxes who secretly resented Xiao Yan, the resentment towards Xiao Yan became more and more serious. It is deepening, wishing that he would die immediately.
As long as Xiao Yan dies, Xiao Chu can replace him.
"It's all your fault, it's all your fault that you suppress me in everything, so the master is unwilling to teach me. Without you, I would be Grand Master Xiao who is under one man and above ten thousand in the whole dynasty!"
Xiao Yan sneered and pitied: "Brother, get ready to accompany Master."
Xiao Chu was taken advantage of by someone with a heart to cast a Zen heart on him. For the first time, Xiao Yin was able to think of his master's old love and spare him, and he was imprisoned in this remote and quiet elegant courtyard for the rest of his life.
He protects Xiao Chu's life without any worries. Isn't he kind enough?
Xiao Yan stepped on the Qingyu Xianliu cup that fell on the ground expressionlessly.
Xiao Chu was so stupid that he made the same trick a second time.
The surface of this Qingyu Xianliu cup is coated with a colorless and tasteless poison, but unfortunately the poison is far less than that of the Zen heart, the last strange poison in the world did not take his life, let alone Lingzhi took out the blood and fed it to him Later, Xiao Yan accidentally discovered that he was invulnerable to all poisons.
The black-clothed dark guard brought Bai Ling inside, and caught Xiao Chu who was about to crawl away. !
"Offended, Eldest Young Master."
Following their master's order, they sent Xiao Chu on the road, forced Xiao Chu to put on the white silk, with calm eyes.
Xiao Ni walked out of the attic slowly, and heard Xiao Chu shout with hatred before he died: "Xiao Ni, you even killed your brother, you will not end well in this life, you are doomed to be lonely!"
Xiao Yan walked outside the door, the huge bamboo forest was filled with damp mist, blue smoke was everywhere, and the rain was lingering.
The dark guard opened an oil-paper umbrella at the side: "Master, it's cold and rainy, be careful of catching a cold."
Xiao Yan smiled, it was rare to gossip with the hidden guards around him.
"Did you hear that, brother, I hope that I will not die well in this life and be alone all my life."
The dark guard bowed his head, held his umbrella securely with his arms, and kept a distance from his master to escort him.
The secret guard said: "Master, you are too worried, the words of the dead cannot be true."
Xiao Yan sighed: "I have countless bones in my hands, so why not have one more."
He sat in the sedan chair, his clothes were slightly damp, and he frowned and brushed his brows.
*******
The gorgeous sedan chair walks slowly through the bamboo forest filled with green smoke and mist.
The small stove was burning with calming incense, the fragrance was faint, Xiao Yan stroked her forehead with one hand, closed her eyelids, and seemed to be asleep.
Since his master died of illness, Xiao Yan rarely recalled the past after he took power.
Xiao Chu's words hit his ears like a mallet in his half-dream and half-awake state, and the images of his childhood involuntarily emerged piecemeal from his mind one after another.
Xiao Chu said that he was not as good as himself, and it was true.
Xiao Yan remembered an incident, at that time Master obtained a rare soft armor made of spider silk, this armor was invulnerable to swords and guns, but it could also be transformed into a sharp weapon to put on the hand, tearing off the handle of the knife, and piercing the flesh of giant beasts.
Xiao Chu wanted this spider silk soft armor very much. In order to be fair, the master asked the two brothers to compete in a few rounds, winning two out of three rounds.
They compete with both civil and military, armored and strange, astronomy, geography, and tactical strategy.
Seeing Xiao Chu looking at her eagerly, Xiao Yan simply gave way to his senior brother, let the other party choose a competition that he thought he was good at.
He backed down again and again, and after finally being able to intentionally lose the first game, the master called him into the study alone, punished him to kneel down, beat him with a whip, and severely reprimanded him for his behavior of releasing water.
Then the master pointed out Xiao Chu's rascal behavior in front of the two of them, and Xiao Chu blushed on the spot, crying and yelling at Xiao Yan not to allow him to underestimate him.
Xiao Chu was really stupid in Xiao Yan's eyes. Later, he easily won a few rounds and obtained the soft armor of spider silk.
That night, he gave the soft armor to Xiao Chu as an apology, but the next day Xiao Chu personally returned the soft armor to him, and gave him a vicious stare before leaving.
When Xiao Yan was young, she thought it was just an annoyed stare, but now that she thinks about it carefully, that young Xiao Chu showed resentment in his gaze.
Xiao Ni's official career is high and smooth, and his power is devoted to the government and the public.
Xiao Chu failed to enter the official career and has been living under the shadow of his junior.
He thought he did not treat Xiao Chu badly, and the beauty in the golden house would not be handed over to him.
It's a pity that Xiao Chu is so stupid and stupid at a young age, so he can only go down and be supervised/taught by his master.
The dream stops.
The sedan chair stopped, and the dark guard whispered, "Grand Master, you're back in the mansion."
Xiao Yan spread out her wide sleeves, and when she got off the sedan chair, the wind blowing in front of her made her misty blue plain shirt flutter.
Xiao Yan's eyes fell on the direction of Jingsiyuan, and joyful emotions suddenly surged in his heart.
He didn't go to the bookstore, but returned to the Jingsiyuan. As soon as Fang opened the door, his eyes were locked on the quietly growing little Ganoderma lucidum behind the window.
Xiao Yan approached and held the delicate and elegant flowerpot into the palm of his hand. Seeing that the blood beads on the upper layer of the soil were absorbed by Ganoderma lucidum, he couldn't help but bend the corners of his lips.
"Little thing, you saved my life again today, what reward do you want?"
No one responded to Xiao Yan's words, he smiled and said to himself: "Come out earlier, I will allow you whatever you want."
The canopy of the little Ganoderma lucidum is getting fatter and fatter, and it looks cute.
Xiao Yan saw that he liked it more and more, so he talked more.
"I remember you wanted a mountain with fruit and leaves, and you'll see it when you come out, okay?"
Little Ganoderma didn't respond, Xiao Yan sighed, and said again: "Forget it, let's feed you gluttonous Ganoderma first."
Xiao Yan took out the blood from his heart, and the knife's entrance ranged from shallow to deep. After taking the blood for a long time, gradually, the blood couldn't come out, and the tip of the knife could only pierce deeper and deeper.
He suppressed the numb and cold stabbing pain in his chest, and after the bleeding stopped, he called Manager Liu and asked him to bring in a cup of medicinal soup.
Xiao Yan looked at Lingzhi's round and well-behaved appearance, and his thoughts moved slightly.
"They all said that I was doomed to be lonely, and it just so happens that you are also a Ganoderma lucidum."
"When you come out, just stay by my side."
Xiao Chu said that he was lonely all his life, if Xiao Chu knew that there was such a Ganoderma lucidum treating him like this, would he be so angry that he would jump out of the coffin?
Even if there are piles of bones behind him, it doesn't matter if there is a Ganoderma lucidum that treats him sincerely, Xiao Yan only thinks that one Ganoderma lucidum is enough.
Xiao Yan touched the canopy of the little ganoderma, and the gloom after parting from Xiao Chu was swept away, and her heart was filled with the joy of being filled with the little ganoderma.
Half a month later, there were no major affairs in the Yan Dynasty, and the little emperor sent several errands, all of which were taken over by the people pushed by Xiao Yan.
Meng Yu handled the late payment of taxes in the border towns very well. It was a bit tricky at first, but Meng Yu dared to yell at the old fox over there, and even under pressure, he carried out drastic reforms without fear of authority.
The bully met a tough thorn, Meng Yu stayed in the border town for more than two months, and gradually took back the property monopolized by the oligarchs there for the court.
After this battle, the little emperor was very happy, and Meng Yu was promoted and rewarded, even his cronies were honored.
Meng Yu subdued the oligarchs in Bianyi and caused a sensation in the court for half a month. His status and prestige increased, and it was recommended by Xiao Yan's letter, so he naturally became the little emperor's trusted right-hand man.
The Wu faction is getting closer to the Grand Master's Mansion, and for half a month, people have given gifts to the Grand Master's Mansion.
On that day, Meng Yu, dressed in court clothes, solemnly went to Taishi's mansion with precious gifts, and paid a sincere visit to Xiao Ni.
Xiao Yan didn't pay much attention to meeting these court officials. He often played with Ganoderma lucidum in his room. When he received the report, he asked people to wait until he had had enough time with Lingzhi. official.
There was a lot of rain in spring, so Meng Yu was sent away, and Xiao Ni crossed the corridor to the Book Pavilion.
In the night, I took blood from my heart and fed it to Ganoderma lucidum. At night, there was thunder and thunder, and I felt shallow. Xiao Yan didn't sleep well.
He leaned over the desk to write a few official documents, and caught a glimpse of the scene outside the carved window, the spring rain hit the flowers and branches, damp and drooping, and his head was in a hurry, which made people feel tired.
Xiao Yan was a little absent-minded today, he couldn't help but put down his pen, followed his intuition and walked towards Jingsiyuan in the dim spring scenery.
I want to be alone with Xiao Lingzhi for a while.
Xiao Yan put the flowerpot on the side of the desk, and leaned against the Luohan couch made of huanghuali behind the window.
The man's slender fingertips rubbed the full and round umbrella cover of Ganoderma lucidum playfully, and the sound of rain falling from the window eaves sandwiched the fragrance of Ningshen floating in the room. When tired, he closed his eyes and took a rest.
When night fell, a burst of spring thunder exploded, startling the fragrance of auspicious flowers blooming outside Xuan's window trembling.
The light and moist floral fragrance seemed to rush into the nostrils with the bitter smell of medicine. Xiao Yan frowned her long eyebrows in her dream, and suddenly opened her eyes.
He subconsciously put away the source of the bitter medicinal smell between his arms, and looked sideways at the face unconsciously pressed against his neck.
The young man's lips were bright red, but his face was very pale.He seems to have changed, but also seems to have not changed.
The bitter fragrance between breaths smelled extremely cool under the damp breath, Xiao Yan couldn't turn his attention, and tightened his hands a little bit, completely taking this slender and slightly cold body into his arms.
