Chapter 75

Zhao Yelan dreamed about a very inconspicuous incident.

When he was fifteen years old, he had already shown his talents in front of outsiders. Several other princes knew of his existence and sent people to win him over.

One of the worst ways is to seduce. He was taken to the tea house, but when the door was closed, a few wisps of cigarettes were lit in the room, and several young women came out, touched his face, and flirted with him wrapped in tulle.

This is the most vigorous age, many people have tasted the taste of love, but he is indifferent.

He was thinking in his heart, who sent these women, and how would they treat him if they were drawn over? If we kill all these people, can we escape unscathed?

The beauties tried their best to seduce him, but found that not only did he not respond physically, but his face became more and more gloomy.

In the end, Zhao Xuan arrived in time and took him back. He couldn’t help but joked, “What’s the matter with you? You really didn’t respond at all?”

What response is needed?

The way Zhao Yelan looked at them was like looking at the fish on the chopping board and the objects in the business field, nothing unusual.

But looking at Zhao Xuan’s surprised face, it seemed that it was abnormal for him not to respond, and he said lightly, “Maybe it’s because I don’t like women.”

Don’t like women?

Zhao Xuan gave him a strange look: “Then you like men?”

Zhao Yelan didn’t answer, because how could he tell Zhao Xuan about something he didn’t even know himself?

He just felt that the most stupid behavior was to put all his thoughts on another person.

He wants many things, but not including women.

It is hard for him to imagine that he would give up these for someone, let alone show all of himself to others.

He lives pitifully but proudly, never letting others see his deepest scars.

Half asleep and half awake, he felt the warmth coming from his back, Yan Mingting was kissing his brand again, he seemed to love kissing here very much, half pity, half affection, itchy and warm, Zhao Yelan was still With her eyes closed, she moved a few times before being hugged into her arms from behind.

He still had his eyes closed, feeling the sound of Yan Mingting’s heartbeat, it was very fast, very powerful, and the fresh strength and temperature were continuously transmitted to him.

Thinking of that dream, the corners of his mouth loosened, and then turned up slightly.

It can be seen that as he grows older, his thoughts will also change. Not only did he put his mind on the other person, but he also accepted the other person wholeheartedly, showing all the scars.

This was a very miraculous thing for him, after thinking about it, it was impossible for him to face the second person like this again, Yan Mingting was the only one.

When he woke up completely, the bedside was already empty. He propped himself up on the side of the bed and sat up. After a while, he lifted the quilt. He just got out of bed and took two steps when his expression changed. He looked down at his trembling legs. His eyes darken.

“You’re awake.” The figure of Yan Mingting appeared at the door of the room, and he came in with a bowl of porridge and some steamed buns full of energy, “Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?”

Zhao Yelan propped one hand on the table next to him while looking at him.

Yan Mingting put down the food, walked up to him, touched his forehead, and carried him back to the bed without saying a word: “Fortunately, he’s not sick.”

“Who are you showing off your fake at this time?” Zhao Yelan scolded him.

“Yes, yes, it’s all my fault.”

Yan Mingting squatted beside the bed, admitting his mistake was very sincere, if only he was so obedient when he called to stop several times last night.

The more Zhao Yelan thought about it, the more angry he was, he kicked his shoulder: “Get out, I don’t want to see you.”

Yan Mingting brought the food in front of him with a smile: “Don’t be so angry, let’s eat something first, this is the porridge I bought at Huichun Building, and the buns I made myself!”

Zhao Yelan was indeed hungry too. He drank a few mouthfuls of porridge before picking up a poor-looking steamed bun, and took a bite while Yan Mingting was looking forward to it.

“How is it? Did you succeed this time?” Yan Mingting stared at him nervously with widened eyes.

Zhao Yelan took two bites and said, “What time is it?”

“You hour.”

Zhao Yelan was slightly surprised, and looked outside in amazement, the sky was really dark, and he fell asleep at this hour?

But last night, after a tossing all night, he vaguely remembered that the last time he heard the crowing of a cock, he couldn’t hold on to sleep. As for Yan Mingting…

“When did you sleep?”

Yan Mingting’s face was slightly red, remembering that he failed to fall asleep several times last night, looking at the limp sleeping person, he still couldn’t hide his enthusiasm, and after a while, he fell asleep with the person in his arms when the sky was slightly bright.

“You didn’t sleep all night, did you?” Zhao Yelan looked at his face and guessed, after being surprised, he felt sorry for himself.

How miserable, he was not let go when he fell asleep, damned smelly man!

“You… don’t change the subject, I’ll ask you if it tastes good.” Yan Mingting pointed at the steamed stuffed bun.

“It’s unpalatable.” Zhao Yelan said truthfully.

Yan Mingting’s smile froze: “Then stop eating, I’ll go to the kitchen and make some of your favorite food, it will be ready soon!” After speaking, he ran out quickly.

After a while, Xiao Gao came in to help him clean up the house.

Xiao Gao blushed unreasonably, he sneaked a few glances, turned his face away, and didn’t even know what to say: “My lord, do you want to change?”

“Let’s wait.” Zhao Yelan was still eating steamed stuffed buns, he didn’t really want to get up, mainly because he was tired, and seeing his sneaky look, he asked, “What’s wrong with you?”

Xiao Gao faltered: “Old man Tan, tell me…my lord, you are in the bridal chamber with the general.”

Zhao Yelan was silent.

“Didn’t you guys already have a bridal chamber?” Xiao Gao didn’t understand, “Didn’t you have a bridal chamber wedding night when you got married?”

Zhao Yelan didn’t know how to explain it to him, so he simply didn’t explain it.

“I heard you cry last night.” Xiao Gao said pitifully.

Zhao Yelan gave a sudden pause and looked at him in embarrassment. Is this kid’s hearing so good? Or…is his voice too loud?

“I thought it was the general who bullied you, and I was going to help you, but the old man Qin dragged him away. He said that you are in the bridal chamber, let me go away…” Xiao Gao twisted his fingers, his face flushed, and asked in a low voice, “Is it the bridal chamber I thought? The one where you want to have a baby?”

“Yes.” Seeing him keep asking, Zhao Yelan said, “It’s just that we can’t have children.”

“Hey, that’s a pity.”

“Unfortunately, I don’t want children.”

If he wanted a child, he would have married a woman long ago. For him, a relationship without any burden is the most suitable.

One weakness is enough, not too many.

“That’s good.” Xiao Gao heaved a sigh of relief and laughed again, “It’s just as long as you are happy, my lord.”

“Yeah.” Zhao Yelan lowered his head and ate a mouthful of steamed stuffed bun, a smile appeared on his lips unconsciously.

Xiao Gao saw Baozi, took two steps closer, and said with a smile: “The general has been making buns in the kitchen for most of the day.”

“Long time?” Zhao Yelan asked.

“That’s right, the general got up at noon and had a meal, then went to the kitchen. After putting the buns in the pot, he ran to the room to guard you, and then went back to the kitchen to try them. He kept running back and forth like this, but the buns failed four times. Time.” After Xiao Gao finished speaking, he laughed, “We were all in the kitchen watching him make noodles and stuffing, it was fun, the general is so nice!”

Yan Mingting carried the cook’s food again, but found that Zhao Yelan had already finished eating the four buns, and asked in surprise, “Why do you eat so much? Isn’t it delicious?”

“I happened to be hungry.” Zhao Yelan said.

“Then what about these?”

“Eat it yourself.”

“Okay.” Yan Mingting ate in his room, feeding him a couple of mouthfuls from time to time, as if he might not be full with a few buns.

As night fell, the sweet-scented osmanthus in the yard had already bloomed, and Zhao Yelan lay down all day, wanting to exercise his muscles and bones.

This is also what Yan Mingting has learned from him. In the past, if he was sick, he would be able to lie down and never sit.

He felt a little uncomfortable when he just walked a few steps, but it got better after he got used to it, Yan Mingting held his hand tightly and walked with him.

Seeing the backs of the two of them supporting each other, Butler Tan couldn’t help crying, it’s not easy, it’s not easy!

“You didn’t go to court today?” Zhao Yelan asked.

“Well, of course I’m going to take a leave of absence to stay with you in the mansion.” Yan Mingting said confidently, “Anyway, there’s nothing serious about going there. It’s boring to just listen to them quarreling all day long.”

“Over there at the Imperial Academy…”

“I asked Xiao Gao to ask for leave for you, the Imperial Academy is more free than the court!”

Zhao Yelan smiled, then remembered another matter, and said, “By the way, did you bring him the gift for Kanchuan’s child?”

“I gave it to the court yesterday, don’t worry, he also said that he wants you to be the foster father of the child.” Yan Mingting said.

Zhao Yelan: “Well, he mentioned it to me before, but I didn’t agree at the time.”

“Why didn’t you agree?” Yan Mingting asked curiously, “I heard it’s a white and fat girl, she should be very good.”

“Do you like children?” Zhao Yelan looked at him sideways.

“I like it, children are the cutest.” Yan Mingting said with a tone of vicissitudes, “They are the most carefree, their eyes are very clean, and people like it when they look at them.”

After walking for a while, he found that Zhao Yelan was silent all the time, so he asked, “Why are you thinking so seriously?”

“Do you want a child?” Zhao Yelan suddenly stopped and looked up at him.

Yan Mingting was stunned for a moment, then touched his stomach and frowned: “You can’t give birth, can you?”

“…” Zhao Yelan said, “If you want children, you can find a woman to have a few.”

Yan Mingting looked at him leisurely: “What about you?”

“I will set fire to the general’s mansion.”

Fortunately, Butler Tan wasn’t here, otherwise he would be so scared that he wouldn’t be able to sleep all night. But Yan Mingting laughed out loud: “I was scared to death, I thought you were going to wrong yourself and let me take a concubine openly.”

“Don’t think about it.”

Yan Mingting smiled and squeezed his hand: “Don’t worry, I like children, I like other people’s children, and I won’t disturb me. If I wanted to have children by myself, I would have already had a litter.”

Speaking of this, Zhao Yelan was also a little curious, Mingming Yan Ming family had a good family background and good looks, why did he never marry a wife and take concubines?

It couldn’t really be because of the rumor about the lone star of the evil spirit, Yan Mingting himself must not care, otherwise why would he come to provoke him?

“You never thought of getting married before?”

“I used to patronize the war, and I didn’t expect to have a family at all. Besides, the barracks were full of big men, and there were so few girls. Where could I find someone I liked? There were two marriage contracts, but at that time they were all in love. The most important thing is to win the battle.”

“What about the concubine’s room? Did your parents prepare it for you?”

When the children of aristocratic families reach their age, many parents will prepare a few maids or concubines for them, and let them be released while learning the art of intercourse.

“That’s even more impossible. My father has never taken a concubine in his life, so how could he let me take a concubine?” Yan Mingting said, “My father told me since I was a child that our heads are on the waistband of our trousers. One day if you don’t keep it together, your head will be gone, so even if you want to get married, try to harm each other as little as possible.”

“Your father is right.” Zhao Yelan said.

“What’s your father’s, how impolite.” Yan Mingting said with a straight face, “It’s our father.”

Zhao Yelan smiled slightly, seeing Yan Mingting’s heart itch, he lowered his head and kissed him.

From time to time, servants passed by around, Zhao Yelan stretched out his hand to push him, but the other party was so strong, not only did not move at all, but also thought it was fun, insisting on kissing him non-stop.

“Stop, stop, I suddenly have an idea.” Zhao Yelan said.

“what idea?”

“Let’s go and see Kan Chuan’s child.”

“Now?”

“It’s not too late, I probably haven’t slept yet.” Zhao Yelan said, “Since you want me to be a foster father, I have to pass my eyes first, not just anyone can fall into my eyes.”

“Then it seems that I am really extraordinary!” Yan Mingting said happily.

“…” careless.

“Then let’s go straight there?”

“No, let’s pretend, I can’t go to him openly.” Zhao Yelan’s eyes lit up, and he whispered something in his ear, Yan Mingting was quite helpless.

“It looks like the child is fake, but I think you clearly want to play.”

People came and went on the street, but no one noticed the two black shadows on the roof, and jumped to another place in an instant.

Yan Mingting led him, avoiding the sight of the imperial army, flying all the way over the walls. Zhao Yelan was no longer as panicked as he was at first, and now he was able to find fun in it. Knowing that Yan Mingting was there and it was impossible to be discovered, he still patrolled the surroundings like a thief.

Kan Chuan was teasing the child with his wife when he heard knocks on the door and asked, “Who is it?”

No one answered, he walked to the door vigilantly, and after opening the door, he was taken aback by the two men in black in front of him, and was about to call out when the tall figure covered his mouth.

“Don’t bark, it’s us.” The person next to him tore off the black scarf and smiled at him.

“Master Zhao?” Kan Chuan looked at him in surprise, and then at the person covering him.

“It’s me.” Yan Mingting let go of his hand, and also pulled off the black cloth.

“Why do you dress up like this?” Kan Chuan couldn’t figure it out. They were a general and a fourth-rank official of the Imperial Academy. They were sneaking around like thieves in the middle of the night. What were they doing?

“Go ahead and talk, is it convenient?” Zhao Yelan asked.

“It’s convenient, come in quickly.” Kan Chuan welcomed them in, “Ms. Li, Lord Zhao and the general are here, go and pour them a cup of tea.”

“Master Zhao, why are you here?” Li Niang walked over overjoyed, and was about to make tea when Zhao Yelan stopped her.

“Don’t bother, we’re just passing by, and we’ll be leaving soon to see your children.”

Just passing by? Dare you be the one who excitedly picked out the night clothes just now?

After Yan Mingting finished slandering, he felt it was funny again, with a smile on his face.

Kan Chuan naturally wouldn’t believe that they were just passing by wearing night clothes, but he didn’t ask carefully, and led them to the bed with a smile: “The child just cried for a while, and we managed to calm her down for a while.”

The two walked to the bed and took a look. The child was lying on the soft quilt, with a chubby face, two big and round eyes, and kicked in the air with his hands and feet, as if he had sensed that a stranger was coming, with a calm expression on his face looking at them.

Yan Mingting was amused, and stretched out his hand in front of her, wanting to see how big her face was, but it made her cry in fright.

Yan Mingting was startled, immediately withdrew his hand, and looked at Kan Chuan and his wife in embarrassment.

The husband and wife smiled, and encouraged them: “It’s okay, she just loves to cry too much, anyone who gets close will cry for a while, there is really nothing to do with her.”

The child kept crying, and the couple seemed to have no intention of stepping forward to help, Yan Mingting tugged on Zhao Yelan’s sleeve, and asked for help, “You try?”

“How should I try?” Zhao Yelan muttered, unable to do so, he could only try to pat the child’s stomach, and said in a low voice, “No, don’t cry, don’t cry…”

Seeing him bluntly coaxing people, the other three couldn’t help but hold back their laughter.

Unexpectedly, the children’s cries were actually quieter, Zhao Yelan looked back at them suspiciously.

Kan Chuan couldn’t help being surprised: “What’s the matter? She didn’t treat me like this?”

“Maybe your daughter likes good-looking people.” Yan Mingting said aggressively, “That’s right, she has the same vision as me.”

Kan Chuan: “…”

Zhao Yelan also felt the novelty, and stared blankly at this little life he had never met before. At this moment, his index finger was caught by a soft little paw, and the little baby suddenly grinned, and a moment later there was a giggle. laughter.

Kan Chuan is really jealous now.

Zhao Yelan’s gaze softened a little, seeing his appearance, Yan Mingting also started to get jealous.

After a while, Kan Chuan brought up the old story again: “My lord, she seems to like you very much, why don’t you give me the honor of being her adoptive father?”

Zhao Yelan originally just wanted to take a look, but he hit it off unexpectedly. He stood up, touched his body, and found that he had changed into night clothes and hadn’t brought anything else out at all.

At this moment, Yan Mingting took out a jade pendant and gave it to him. Zhao Yelan looked over in surprise, Yan Mingting said: “I guess you will recognize a goddaughter, I have prepared everything for you, this is left by my mother, it is suitable for a girl, anyway we two don’t need it. ”

“It’s too expensive, we can’t take it.” Kan Chuan said, “I asked Mr. Zhao to be the adoptive father of the child, not out of greed for your money, besides, Mr. Zhao has already given you a gift.”

“One yard counts for one yard. Those are congratulatory gifts for you as a colleague. This was given to the child by Yan Mingting and I, not you.” Zhao Yelan took the jade pendant and placed it on the child’s bed, unable to bear it. He pinched her face again, and there was a smile on the brow.

In the end, it was Li Niang who took Kan Chuan’s hand and thanked her with a smile: “Thank you, Mr. Zhao, then we will accept her. I hope she can grow up soon.”

The two played with the child for a while before finally

Back to the General’s Mansion furtively, Zhao Yelan took off his night clothes, lying on the bed, thinking about what happened tonight, and suddenly said with a smile: “You’re right, the child is really the most innocent. Will show kindness.”

“Yeah.” Seeing that he was still reminiscing about the details of meeting the child, Yan Mingting turned over and lowered his head to kiss him, “Actually, I’m also very naive. If you have nothing to do, you can think about me more.”

“Are you naive?” Zhao Yelan asked angrily, “Will a naive person contradict me like this?”

Yan Mingting smiled and worked hard, tossing and turning, like waves.

Zhao Yelan suddenly realized a problem, he had slept all day during the day, and now he was tossing around like this, he would definitely not be able to wake up tomorrow.

This is a vicious circle, he still wants to go to the Hanlin Academy to copy books.

“Stop it.” Zhao Yelan said out of breath.

Yan Mingting was taken aback: “Tingting? Okay, Tingting is Tingting, Tingting…”

Zhao Yelan listened to him read the “stop” for a long time, but he didn’t intend to stop at all, and scratched several scratches on his back uncontrollably.

—Then you should stop!
