Stigma (Yi Cong Yin)

Chapter 64: pity

Views:

Sui Yan huddled in the corner all night and didn't dare to move. In the morning, when Sui Xun forcibly dragged him up to face, his whole body was sore.

Sui Yan's face was full of pain: "I don't want to go to court today, why are you calling me?"

Suixun was tying his waistband, and without looking back he said coldly, "You didn't tell me that you won't go to court today."

Sui Yan almost fell back on the bed.

Suixun said: "Since everyone is up, come to the palace with me, and don't think about making progress all day, what big things can be accomplished?"

Sui Yan Lai got up in a jittery manner. After taking a shower, he glanced at the breakfast and said, "I won't eat it."

Sui Xun frowned: "Eat a little bit, don't do it all the time, I'm used to you, right?"

Suiyan whispered: "I'm going to the place of His Royal Highness the Prince after the last court. There is a new cook in the East Palace, and the desserts are very delicious."

Sui Xun couldn't bear that he was always so close to the prince, but there was no reason to stop him, so he frowned and drank some porridge himself before picking up an umbrella and taking Sui Yan out of the house.

It snowed heavily all night, and the surrounding area was covered in white snow, covered in silver, and the surroundings were bright and bright. Even before dawn, you could see the road clearly without using lanterns.

Sui Xun surrounded Sui Yan with one hand, wrapped his thin body with a cloak, and protected him into the carriage.

Li Zhao hung up the lamp, whipped his whip, and drove towards the palace.

The wheels rolled, rolling out two gear marks on the white snow.

After a while, the two entered the palace with umbrellas.

Duan Mingchong probably guessed that Sui Yan would come to court today, and was waiting at the entrance of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. At this time, he saw Sui Yan and Sui Xun stepping on the snow from a distance, and he hurriedly raised a gentle smile.

Sui Yan was yawning when he caught a glimpse of Duan Mingchong outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and suddenly woke up.

He ran out directly from under Suixun's umbrella: "His Royal Highness!"

Sui Xun was afraid that he would fall, and was about to catch him, but Sui Yan rushed into the wind and snow like a rabbit, ran a few steps, and hit the bottom of Duanming Chong's umbrella.

Duan Mingchong stretched out his hand to support him, and said with a chuckle, "Be careful, be careful of falling."

Sui Yan raised his head and smiled at him.

The snow was flying, and under an ink-washed bamboo-bone umbrella, two young men dressed in ink stood tall and jade-like.

Suixun stood there, staring blankly at the two people not far away.

For some reason, he suddenly felt a strange sense of disobedience, but after thinking about it carefully, he didn't know what that strange feeling was.

The elder brother, who had a vague sense of crisis but didn't know it, walked over and watched Sui Yan go all the way to the bottom of Duanming Chong's umbrella.

Suiyan went around behind Duan Mingchong, hid on the other side of His Royal Highness, pouted and turned his head away from looking at Suixun.

Duan Mingchong changed his umbrella to cover the snow for Sui Yan, and smiled softly: "No need to be polite, the snow is too heavy, let's go first."

Sui Yan nodded desperately, glanced at Sui Xun with a guilty conscience, and dragged Duan Mingchong's sleeve into the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Sui Xun followed behind, staring gloomily at the back of Sui Yan's head, trying to see something.

Sui Yan was seen sweating coldly, leaned over to Duan Mingchong and whispered, "Your Highness, can I stay in the East Palace for one night today?"

Duan Mingchong looked at him in surprise: "Why?"

Suiyan leaned against him, seeking a sense of security: "I got carried away yesterday and offended my elder brother. He almost beat me up yesterday, and when I go back today, I might have to look for my faults everywhere. I'm afraid."

Duan Mingchong knew from the beginning that Sui Yan was afraid of Sui Xun, but it was too poignant to see the little bully who was always doing a good job at this time shaking his claws and saying "I'm afraid". If it wasn't out of time, he really He wanted to rub Sui Yan's head directly.

Duan Mingchong smiled and said, "Yes, yes, but can you guarantee that General Sui will be relieved tomorrow?"

Sui Yan said: "It can be delayed for a day. Your Highness should take me in, right?"

He desperately blinked at Duan Mingchong.

Duan Mingchong chuckled lightly: "Of course I will."

Although it was illegal for foreign ministers to stay in the East Palace, everyone in the palace knew that when the matter of the Lord of the Years happened, the earnest prince seemed to be a different person, and he would unconditionally condone anything inappropriate.

After coming and going, even the emperor didn't bother to care about them. Anyway, even if a playboy who only knew how to eat, drink, and play, moved into the East Palace, he wouldn't be able to find any waves.

Sui Yan received a sentence of approval, and suddenly he seemed to have received a life-saving talisman, and he was overjoyed.

He had no interest in the previous court, and he was even less in the mood to listen to those tedious and tedious political affairs when he encountered happy things, and stared at Duan Ming Chong Meng the whole time.

But within an hour, the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty dispersed.

Sui Xun, who was on the side, was about to catch Sui Yan, but saw him running towards Duan Ming Chong, who was opposite.

Suixun frowned, finally realizing what was wrong.

Is your brother too clingy to the prince

Are other people's best friends so tired

Sui Yan stretched out his hand and said, "Your Highness, do you want to take the book back to the East Palace, and I will hold it for you?"

Duan Ming Chong smiled and said: "No need, you can just go."

Sui Yan retracted his hand fluently and said, "Then let's go?"

Duan Ming Chongchao glanced back and said, "Did you tell General Sui that you want to stay in the East Palace today?"

Suiyan said: "It's okay, you don't need to tell him, just slip away first."

Suixun: "Huh."

A sneer came from the top of his head, making Sui Yan's hair stand on end in fright.

Duan Mingchong hurriedly protected him, and said to Suixun with a smile, "I alone asked the Marquis to stay in the East Palace. I hope the generals don't blame him."

Sui Yan nodded behind him like pounding garlic.

Sui Xun wanted to catch Sui Yan and beat him, but because Duan Mingchong didn't take action, he just bowed to the prince, gave Sui Yan a cold look, and turned to leave.

It was not until Sui Xun left that Sui Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

Duan Mingchong took him to the direction of the East Palace, looked at his slumped head, and said with a chuckle, "Do you know what's wrong?"

Sui Yan nodded and said, "I see, even if you offend Your Highness in the future, you can't offend your brother."

Duan Mingchong: "…"

Duan Mingchong looked at him helplessly, okay, as long as he knew he was wrong.

The two returned to the East Palace. Duan Mingchong wanted to deal with some papers that had not been processed in the early days, so he sat in front of the desk in the study to correct them.

Sui Yan simply lay on the side and looked at him without blinking, and after sitting for a while, his stomach suddenly growled.

Sui Yan: "…"

Duan Mingchong looked up at him in surprise.

Suiyan blushed, he was so addicted to beauty that he forgot that his original purpose of coming to the East Palace was to rub the steamed buns.

Duan Mingchong didn't mean to laugh at him, his smile was more gentle: "Hungry?"

Sui Yan blushed slightly and nodded: "I didn't have an appetite in the morning, so I didn't eat much."

Duan Mingchong put down the cinnabar pen and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier, I'll let someone go to the kitchen to make something to eat, come here."

Sui Yan followed him to the outer room, and the palace servant brought a jade plate full of peeled fried pine nuts.

Sui Yan loved the snacks in the market for ten minutes. Duan Mingchong always felt that those things were not clean. It would be bad if he fell ill, so he asked the people in the East Palace Kitchen to make similar snacks for him.

Duan Mingchong pushed the pine nuts over and said, "Eat on a pad first, or eat with a spoon, or wrap your fingers in silk and eat it, don't take it with your bare hands, no..."

Suiyan has listened to it countless times in the past few years, and said casually: "...It's not clean. Your Highness, I'm no longer a child, and I don't bite my fingers. I only eat a pine nut, and I won't get sick."

He said, throwing the spoon and grabbing it with his hands.

Duan Mingchong grabbed his hand and looked at him disapprovingly: "Your health is not good, you should pay more attention on weekdays, don't you tell me that you are also such a child in Hou's mansion and grab it with your hands?"

Sui Yan had no choice but to put down his hands and eat the pine nuts with a practical spoon. He lost his appetite without taking two bites.

Duan Mingchong said in surprise: "What's wrong?"

Sui Yan said, "There is no artistic conception."

Duan Mingchong: "…"

So after so many years, what exactly is mood

Do you need a mood to eat something

Duan Ming Chong didn't know why, so he said dryly: "Yes, let's do it."

After a while, the steamed buns from Wanhualou were brought up, Sui Yan rolled up his sleeves and feasted, his eyes curled up.

Seeing how happy he was eating, Duan Mingchong tried to squeeze a small piece of steamed bun and put it in his mouth, took a bite, sipped it lightly, and then frowned.

Sui Yan wondered, "Your Highness, what's wrong?"

Duan Mingchong put down half of the steamed bun, took a sip of tea, and said, "It's too sweet."

Suiyan tilted his head: "Really? I think it is moderately sweet and refreshing. Would you like to try it again, Your Highness?"

Duan Mingchong waved his hand: "No, I'm not quite used to it."

Sui Yan put a mouthful of steamed buns in his mouth and ate it, thinking, "Then you tricked the cook who specializes in sweets into the East Palace, just to make steamed buns for me?"

Sui Yan thought of this, and when he thought of the scene when Duan Mingchong, with his graceful and handsome face flushed with red, ordered his servants to arrest the cook of Wanhualou, he instinctively curled his lips into a smile.

His Royal Highness, this is too endearing.

In the courtroom, the strategists are as immovable as a mountain, and on weekdays they are as gentle as jade and like the spring breeze, but they will secretly do such ridiculous things for personal gain in order to make Suiyan happy.

The more Sui Yan thought about it, the more he felt that Duan Ming Chong was really a treasure given to him by God.

Sometimes Sui Yan feels that he is in a big dream, and he is always afraid that the most beautiful benefits in the dream will explode like a bubble. After that, he will wake up from the dream and return to the icy desolation of his previous life. Wangfu.

Sui Yan looked at Duan Mingchong without squinting, made His Royal Highness look a little uncomfortable, lowered his eyes, got up and went to the study to continue processing the book.

After Suiyan finished eating the steamed buns, he felt a little boring, but he didn't want to disturb Duan Mingchong, so he sat bored for a while, suddenly remembered something, and his eyes lit up.

He recruited the palace servants and said mysteriously, "Where is the small kitchen in the East Palace?"

The palace servant was the one who served him three years ago. He had long known that this young man who looked harmless to humans and animals was an extremely difficult master to serve. He did not dare to neglect, and whispered: "The servant will take you there."

Sui Yan hurriedly said: "No, no, you can tell me directly."

After a while, Sui Yan followed the guidance of the palace servants and finally found the small kitchen in the southwest corner of the East Palace.

The small kitchen had probably just been put out of the fire, and the smell of charcoal fire could still be found as soon as it was close to the door.

Sui Yan poked his head at the door and looked inside.

"Hello, is there anyone?"

Soon, an impatient voice came from inside: "If you have something to say, let the fart go. What steamed buns do you want this time? Can I squeeze a dead snake?"

Sui Yan: "…"

When Sui Yan heard the sound, he straightened up and walked in.

The small kitchen was full of clean dishes and pots and pans. He crossed the table top, raised the curtain and walked in, and saw a man of five or three thick smashing a piece of dough on the table with his back to him. The whole person exudes an aura that no strangers should enter.

Suiyan: "That..."

The cook looked back and said in a stern voice, "What's the matter?"

Suiyan recognized him immediately: "Hey, you really are the cook of Wanhualou!"

The cook had a rough face, and it was hard to believe that those delicate pasta were made by him. When he saw Sui Yan, he squinted for a long time before recognizing it, and frowned, "Don't you just go to Banhualou every two months? Are you going to take me back to the folly of your house?"

Take advantage of: "… "

Sui Yan's face suddenly sank when he was called by this big head, and he looked at him blankly.

The cook raised his eyebrows: "Oh, why did I see you here?"

Sui Yan said: "I am the prince of the dynasty."

The cook said, "Oh", not afraid of the imperial power, and said: "I still think you are the eunuch in the palace. You have thin skin and tender meat, so you are a pampered noble."

Sui Yan: "…"

Sui Yan looked at him coldly, then as if thinking of something, he suddenly changed his face and laughed suddenly, but the smile was cold no matter how it looked.

He pretended to be regretful in a soft voice: "Unfortunately, it is Your Excellency who is trapped in the palace and can't get out."

The cook was choked.

Sui Yan said: "I originally wanted to ask His Royal Highness to put you back, but now I look at it, huh."

The cook was very able to bend and stretch, and hurriedly said: "At first glance, Lord Hou is a rich, noble, wise and talented person. He is a young man who has eyes and does not know Mount Tai, and I hope Lord Hou will not remember villains."

Suiyan said: "I'm sorry, I am a very careful person and hold a lot of grudges."

Chef: "..."

Sui Yan looked down at the cook slightly, raised her thin lips, and said with a half-smile, "You deserve to stay here, stay here."

Saying that, turn around and run.

The author has something to say: It's really exciting to run away after pretending to be forced, and slip away.

Jun Jingxing: Hello? Hello? Lord Hou, are you still there? Come back, I'm sitting down to take root.
