Xiao Qiheng remembered that it had been more than four years since Jiang Li was transferred to serve by his side.
Four years, more than a thousand days.
Xiao Qiheng suddenly realized that Jiang Li had been in charge of his daily life and diet for so long without knowing it. It had been so long that he was completely used to Jiang Li being the first thing he saw when he opened his eyes, and he was also used to the fact that Jiang Li was in charge of his daily life. Spin around yourself.
So when Zheng Yu proposed to borrow Jiang Li to go back, his first reaction was to refuse. What's more, Zheng Yu said something like "Guaranteed to raise him to be white and fat". Could it be that he has raised Jiang Li to lose weight in the past few years
Thinking of this, Xiao Qiheng raised his eyes and glanced at Jiang Li who was on the side. The latter's expression didn't change much, and he didn't seem to be interested in Zheng Yu's proposal.
This made Xiao Qiheng feel a little better, when he heard Zheng Yu say again: "Otherwise, you just leave the man to me, and I will send you two smart ones to serve you."
The word "send" made Xiao Qiheng feel subconsciously unhappy, as if Jiang Li was an object in his mouth, and he could give it away as he wanted.
In fact, as far as the ancient background is concerned, servants do not have any human rights. As long as the master is willing, it is a matter of saying a word to give it to anyone. It's just that Xiao Qiheng was not happy when the target was Jiang Li, so he immediately lowered his face: "No need."
Zheng Yu thought he thought there were too few people, so he made a hand gesture: "Three? Three for one, you earned."
"I said I don't need it." Xiao Qiheng said, "Take back your daydream."
"I said brother, don't refuse so quickly, let's ask Jiang Li if he is willing?" Zheng Yu really didn't want to give up Jiang Li, a chef who suits his taste, and tried to get rid of Jiang Li, then turned to ask Jiang Li Li: "Jiang Li, let me tell you, if you come with me, you will be able to leave the palace immediately, and you can go and see how fun it is outside, instead of staying in this Qinghe Palace every day, how boring it is to stay here every day ,Am I right?"
Zheng Yu's words reminded Xiao Qiheng of one thing.
I have been imprisoned in this side hall for these years, and Jiang Li has been staying here. Apart from serving him, my daily life is reading, reading, practicing sword and playing the piano. Maybe he is tired of such a life.
Thinking like this, Xiao Qiheng also looked at Jiang Li, wanting to hear his answer.
Seeing that the two of them were looking straight at him, Jiang Li smiled at them, and said in a neutral tone, "Thank you, Young Master, for your appreciation. This is Jiang Li's honor."
When he said this, he deliberately paused, and saw that the expressions of the two of them changed as expected, one was pleasantly surprised, the other was gloomy.
"Haha, it's easy to talk about!" Zheng Yu waved his hands and smiled, very pleased with his wit, "The main reason is that the food you make is so delicious. I don't like anything else, I just like eating food and drinking."
A gloomy look flashed in Xiao Qiheng's eyes, thinking of what Jiang Li said to him on New Year's Eve that year, he felt extremely ironic.
Back then I intended to let him out of the palace, but he said he wanted to stay by my side, but now he wants to leave with others, it's really ridiculous. However, he, Xiao Qiheng, is not a person who allows others to play tricks. If he wants to leave, he has to ask him whether he agrees or not!
Jiang Li caught the emotional change in his eyes, and wanted to laugh in his heart. Sure enough, no matter which world he went to, no matter how his body was changed, no matter how his appearance was changed, the other party was still his familiar lover, and he knew that if he didn't express his opinion, he would be angry Then he said to Zheng Yu: "It turns out that the young master likes to drink. It just so happened that the servant planted grapes in the side courtyard. When the fruit bears fruit and makes wine, he will give the young master a bottle to taste."
"You still know how to make wine? It's a good feeling! One bottle is not enough, so I need two more... Hey, that's not right!"
When it came to brewing wine, Zheng Yu's eyes lit up, thinking that Jiang Li's culinary skills are so good, the cooking skills should not be much worse, and he didn't realize what he meant until he was halfway through the sentence.
The grapes ripen in June and July, and this is only March. Jiang Li said that he would wait until the grapes were ripe to make wine, which meant that he rejected his proposal and chose to stay in Qinghe Hall.
Zheng Yu reacted: "Are you rejecting me?"
Jiang Li said with a smile: "It is really an honor for this slave to be loved by the young master. But His Highness is kind to this slave, and this slave has sworn that he will be His Highness's person for the rest of his life, and will only stay by His Highness's side unless His Highness doesn't want to." Slave, otherwise this slave will not leave, and I hope the young master will forgive me."
Zhao Qing, who was standing at the side, listened to his words, admiring him very much, thinking that it was no wonder that he was favored by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, if he had such a nasty words, he would really be unable to say it, and he deserved not to be favored.
In fact, when Jiang Li was talking about brewing wine just now, Xiao Qiheng immediately heard what he meant, and now he heard him say "oath" again, and it was still in front of others, he couldn't help but With a slight movement, the haze just now was miraculously swept away.
You still have a conscience. Xiao Qiheng thought to himself.
At the same time, the system reminded in Jiang Li's mind: "Congratulations to the host, the male protagonist's favorability has increased by 5%, and the current favorability is 35%."
Over the years, Jiang Li has been controlling the progress of Xiao Qiheng's affection, and has never taken the initiative to go beyond the rules to flirt with the other party, so he has not yet broken through the primary liking state.
However, now that he has turned eighteen, he is old enough to fall in love, so of course he has to start a strategy. Although it is said that Xiao Qiheng can also play tricks on Xiao Qiheng now, it is still not enough to just do tricks purely.
"Master Host." The system sensed his thoughts and said, "Please be kind."
Jiang Li knew that it was worried about the little black house, so he laughed and said, "Don't worry, I won't lock you up for too long, after all, I also want to care for the disabled."
Disabled people—His Royal Highness.
system:"… "
"Your words, why do you feel weird?" Zheng Yu touched his chin. At first glance, Jiang Li's words sounded like he was expressing his loyalty to his master, but after thinking about it, something seemed wrong, but he had to say something was wrong. Well, I can't say it again.
But he has always been big-hearted, so he didn't think about it anymore, he just said very regretfully: "It's a pity, but it doesn't matter, anyway, I will live at home for a while, and I can often come to eat."
Jiang Li expressed his admiration for his dedication to Cengfan. He has been Cengfan for three worlds, and he still hasn't gotten tired of eating.
However, Jiang Li was very happy to meet his best friend in every world, and had no objection to him asking for a meal, but Xiao Qiheng was a little dissatisfied, and frowned at him: "You come for a meal, lonely Do you agree?"
"Could it be that we have been in a relationship for more than ten years, and you don't even want to have a meal?!" Zheng Yu looked at him in disbelief, took out a stack of letters from his arms, and shook them in front of him, "You Look at what this is, this is the proof of our brotherhood, just relying on these, can't you let me have a meal?"
What he held in his hand was Xiao Qiheng's reply letter to him. Compared with his practice of saving the letter, Xiao Qiheng had already burned all the proofs of maintaining the brotherhood between the two.
"One meal." Xiao Qiheng lifted his chin lightly, motioning him to look at the meals on the table that he had swept away, "One meal is over, you can go."
Zheng Yu: "..."
Seeing this, Zhao Qing sighed in his heart: It is useless to rely on one person's efforts to maintain the brotherhood, and I feel sorry for the young master.
But in the end, Xiao Qiheng agreed to him to stay for dinner under Zheng Yu's stern entanglement.
After Jiang Li and Zhao Qing removed the bowls and chopsticks, Xiao Qiheng and Zheng Yu were left in the room.
Zheng Yu stopped smiling, straightened his face, and said, "It may not be easy for me to go again when I come back this time. When I face the saint today, the emperor intends to keep me in Beijing."
Xiao Qiheng was not surprised by this, and said lightly: "It's something he would do."
He, of course, refers to the current emperor.
Zheng Yu is a distinguished young master. In the past few years, he lived and ate and lived with the soldiers in Xiyangguan. He went to the battlefield together, shed blood, and fought his life. He has won the trust and admiration of all the soldiers.
Especially after he led the soldiers to repel the enemy this time, his reputation in the army became even higher. The emperor called him back to receive the title, which seemed to boost morale, but in fact he wanted to curb his military power.
"What are you going to do next?" Zheng Yu asked, "Do you just stay in this place where the birds don't shit?"
"Of course not." Xiao Qiheng stroked his cuffs, his voice seemed flat, but with an aura of controlling the game, "This day, it should change."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Yu geared up, with an eager expression on his face: "That's just right, I've been waiting for a long time."
Xiao Qiheng glanced at him: "Aren't you afraid that the old Hou Ye's family will serve you?"
The family law of the Hou Mansion is the ruler. Zheng Yu's character of fearing the world will not be chaotic, he was often whipped by the ruler when he was a child. The most severe time was when the father and son had different positions five years ago. Zheng Yu spoke out. The time he contradicted the old Hou Ye, he was whipped by the old Hou Ye so that he lay on the bed for three days.
"What are you afraid of?" Zheng Yu said with a face full of indifference, "Back then I was hurt because of his thin skin and tender flesh, but now I have thick skin and thick flesh. His old man's small body, if he slaps me, he treats me as a tickle. .”
Hearing this, Xiao Qiheng was a little speechless and a little laughing, and then he said seriously: "The old Hou Ye's health has not been as good as before, you should pay more attention."
"I know." Zheng Yu scratched his head. He saw his father in the hall today. He hadn't seen him for five years. The other party has aged a lot. "It's a big deal that I don't contradict him, just let him smoke."
Xiao Qiheng shook his head: "After all, it's because of me that the old Hou Ye..."
"Stop, stop." Zheng Yu interrupted him, "This is my own choice, and it has nothing to do with you. Besides, we are brothers, how can I let you ignore it?"
The dispute between Zheng Yu and the old Lord Hou was because of the confinement of Xiao Qiheng. At that time, the old Prime Minister Lu fell, the empress passed away, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was imprisoned.
Zheng Yu and Xiao Qiheng had a good relationship. After returning from traveling outside, after learning about this, he immediately begged the old Hou Ye to intercede for Xiao Qiheng.
He didn't know at the time that when the incident happened, the old Hou Ye had written twice to intercede for the prince, but both papers were rejected. In the end, I had to give up.
Zheng Yu only found out about this recently. He was ashamed of accusing his father of being cold-blooded and ruthless. He had thought about going to apologize to his father, but just now in the court hall, he saw his father's face as black as the bottom of a pot, and he stared at himself with an expression of "unfilial son, you dare to come back" , he faltered and hid by Xiao Qiheng's side.
"Hey!" Zheng Yu sighed, "I will cry if I say too much, so I won't say anything."
Xiao Qiheng didn't say any more, but he still kept the other party's kindness in his heart.
"By the way, I heard from Jiang Li just now that you planted grapes in your side courtyard. Take me to have a look. The Xiyang Pass is too dry, and the fruit can't grow at all." Zheng Yu stood up and planned to help Xiao Qiheng push wheelchair.
Xiao Qiheng raised his hand to stop him, and turned the wheelchair towards the door by himself.
Zheng Yu followed, and the two went to the side courtyard together. As soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw the grapes planted by Jiang Li.
Jiang Li built a boxy frame above the grapes. The vines wrapped around the frame and grew very well, with lush leaves. In summer, they can directly enjoy the cool under the frame, so Jiang Li also placed rocking chairs and wooden tables underneath.
As soon as Zheng Yu saw the rocking chair under the shelf, he became interested. He walked over in three steps and sat down on his buttocks: "Oh, this thing is good, and it's pretty good to sit on..."
Before he finished speaking, something fell from the sky and hit him on the forehead, causing his words to stop abruptly.
A sticky and wet feeling came from his forehead, Zheng Yu looked up and saw a green bird jumping happily on the shelf above his head.
Zheng Yu: "... isn't it?"
When Xiao Qiheng saw this, the corners of his lips curled slightly: "Is this a place where birds don't shit?"
Zheng Yu: "..."
Can't I fucking say the wrong thing? ! !
