"Although it's a bit risky, if the other party intends to target you, this is indeed the fastest way." Wen Liunian said, "Is this a beauty trick?"
Zhao Yue tapped his head: "Don't talk nonsense."
People at the table next to him were peeping here, and they were very worried when they saw it—can Mr. Wen's head be knocked casually, and what if it breaks, it's Wenquxing descending to earth.
The two drank a pot of tea in the teahouse, and when they came out, seeing that it was still early, they went to the newly bought house. The craftsmen have already started work, although it is still in a mess, but the prototype of the future can be vaguely seen.
"What is this pool for?" Wen Liunian squatted down and asked.
"Washing brush and inkstone." Zhao Yue said, "The opposite is the study."
"I can't tell." Wen Liunian patted his chest, "He's quite thoughtful." He could even think of these details.
"It's not difficult." Zhao Yue smiled, "Just close your eyes and think once, what you have to do and where you have to go from getting up in the morning to going to bed at night, and then you can arrange the layout of the house. There are wood on the corridor. Nail, hang thick curtains in winter, and you won’t be cold when you go out and go up.”
Wen Liunian felt a little warm in his heart.
Zhao Yue pulled him to stand up: "Go to the study."
"En." Wen Liunian nodded, and obediently crossed the small pontoon bridge hand in hand with him.
The previous owner of the house was considered a scholarly scholar, so the study room was originally very large. After Zhao Yue bought it, he expanded it to a higher level, and built a new library in the back.
Wen Liunian rubbed the shelf board of the bookcase with his fingers. It is made of ordinary wood and anti-moth fragrant wood. Willows and leaves. Although they are all small details, the sum of everything is enough to show his intentions.
"It's not finished yet." Zhao Yue hugged him from behind, "It will be better in the future."
"En." Wen Liunian smiled, leaned back into his arms, and closed his eyes with peace of mind.
It will be better in the future.
There was no one around, except for the occasional chirping of cicadas, and craftsmen were busy repairing the door ahead. Zhao Yue turned around the body in his arms, bowed his head and kissed it tenderly, hooking the soft tip of his tongue, he couldn't bear to lose it.
Wen Liunian took a few steps back, but was blocked by a newly made desk.
Zhao Yue clenched his waist and pulled him closer to him.
Wen Liunian was sucked and kissed until he lost his mind, closed his eyes and his eyelashes trembled slightly, and unconsciously lay back on the desk.
Zhao Yue unbuttoned his belt without any intention of being polite.
The mahogany table top was a bit hard, but Wen Liunian couldn't care less, he scratched the table unconsciously with his hands, and frowned slightly.
Zhao Yue leaned over and pulled his hands around his neck.
In a state of confusion, Wen Liunian's black hair scattered on the table, he bit his lower lip and did not want to make a sound, but there was a sound of footsteps outside, and the voice of a craftsman: "Where are Master Zhao and Lord Wen going? I thought there was no one in the backyard."
"Let's go out." Another person said, "Master Zhao knows kung fu, so he won't walk through the door honestly like you and me." He can fly over walls and walls casually.
Wen Liunian covered his mouth and looked at Zhao Yue nervously.
Feeling that his expression was quite attractive, Zhao Yue lowered his head and kissed him, and by the way brought him forward, so as to get closer to himself.
"...you!" Wen Liunian had tears in his eyes, but he was afraid of someone outside, so he didn't dare to say anything.
Never seen him like this before, Zhao Yue felt very comfortable for no reason, the table creaked a little, so he simply picked him up by the waist, turned around and leaned against the corner.
Wen Liunian's whole body weight fell on him in an instant, unable to speak and not knowing what to do, he lowered his head and bit his shoulder in desperation, gaining a little more strength than before. Zhao Yue did not intend to let him go at all. On the contrary, the slightest pain spread from his shoulder to the blood, and the restlessness became more obvious, and his movements became more out of control.
The two people outside were still chatting—the foreman was away, so it was rare to find a shady place to take a break, but they didn't expect that it was full of fragrance inside. Wen Liunian had never thought of such a scene in his life, so he was naturally nervous, but his body was firmly held by him, unable to move even a little bit, so he could only be forced to cater.
"Is there a mouse in the study?" After a while, a craftsman wondered, "Why are there rats?"
"Is there?" The other person listened for a long time, "There is no sound, maybe you heard it wrong?"
"Impossible." The previous man stood up, "Go and have a look. If there are any mice, you need to get some medicine to drive them away. There is a new table inside. It's not cheap."
The two walked towards the study together, the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer, Wen Liunian opened his eyes wide, like a frightened cat.
"Zhang San Zhang Wu, where did he go again?!" The foreman suddenly shouted.
"Here we come." The two people outside hurriedly turned around and ran out, ignoring this side - after all, if they slack too much, their wages will be deducted.
Zhao Yue whispered in his ear: "Are you afraid?"
Wen Liunian finally realized for the first time in his life that if he had a bad temper, there was nothing he could do.
Zhao Yue put the man back on the table, bowed his head and kissed again, as if they were inseparable, but Wen Liunian was so tormented by him that he closed his eyes softly in the end, just hoping to pass out earlier.
The humming of the cicadas in the courtyard gradually disappeared, and the house finally became quiet. Zhao Yue dressed him up and kissed him again: "How is it?"
Wen Liunian turned his head in a daze, and just happened to see the table—the four treasures of the study were not placed on it, but he was lying on it for a while, and if he recalled it when he was dealing with official business... Thinking of this, Master Wen frowned slightly: "The table Replace."
"Okay." Zhao Yue obeyed him, "Tomorrow we will go to the carpenter to pick another one."
"Forget it." After a while, Wen Liunian changed his mind again, "Save some money."
After all, the family property is not rich enough to be squandered at will, and mahogany is not cheap.
"Take you back?" Zhao Yue asked.
Wen Liunian closed his eyes and muttered: "If someone sees and asks—"
"It's just that he was still ill before, and he was running around on orders, so he passed out due to heatstroke." Zhao Yue hugged him by the waist.
Wen Liunian whispered "Yes", and then fell asleep in peace.
Things like scapegoats can occasionally make the emperor take his back.
"Are you alright, sir?" Inside the Shang Mansion, Mu Qingshan was startled, why was he brought back.
"It's nothing." Zhao Yue made up according to the previous lines, "I was sick and happy, but I ran outside for a long time, and I got some heatstroke."
"Where did your lord go?" Mu Qingshan worriedly tested the temperature of his forehead, "Didn't he be admitted to the palace by the emperor, why did he still suffer from heatstroke outside?"
"I went to find a group of jugglers." Zhao Yue said casually.
"A juggler?" Mu Qingshan was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, "Is it the snake dancers?"
"Exactly, Master has seen them performing arts?" Zhao Yue said as he walked.
"Well, and Brocade Workshop originally planned to make a deal with them." Mu Qingshan said, "But it was rejected later."
"What deal?!" Wen Liunian quickly opened his eyes.
Zhao Yue: ...
Mu Qingshan was surprised: "It turns out that the lord is not asleep."
Wen Liunian rubbed his nose and asked again: "Master Shang wants to do business with that group of jugglers?"
"Yes." Mu Qingshan nodded, "Your Excellency has also seen them dance snakes, right? The roll of black cloth has a lot of mystery inside, if it can be made into self-defense soft armor and sold to people in the Jianghu, it should not worry about losing business."
"This time it's really a hero who sees the same thing." Wen Liunian laughed, "The reason why the emperor announced me to enter the palace is also for this matter, but it's not for the people in the world, but for the Chu army."
"Did the other party agree?" Mu Qingshan asked, "The shopkeeper Wang said that he just knocked on the door, and he was kicked out by the snake before he talked for a long time."
"Oh? There's another matter." Wen Liunian was thoughtful upon hearing this.
Zhao Yue frowned: "Go back to your room and have a good rest."
"Where are Lord Shang and Shopkeeper Wang now?" Wen Liunian asked.
Mu Qingshan said: "They are all in the brocade workshop, they should check the accounts at the front, they have been there for a while."
"Let's go." Wen Liunian looked at Zhao Yue, "Let's go to the living room and discuss this matter with Lord Shang."
"Then I'll go and spread the word." Mu Qingshan walked out, and stopped at the door, "Is your body okay?"
"It doesn't matter at all." Wen Liunian patted Zhao Yue, "Put me down quickly."
Master Zhao felt helpless, so he had no choice but to follow suit.
"Look, I'm fine." Wen Liunian stood on the ground with a very calm expression.
Mu Qingshan nodded without thinking too much.
After he went out, Wen Liunian's knees swayed to one side, but fortunately Zhao Yue had quick eyesight and quick hands, and took him into his arms.
Wen Liunian blinked at him.
Zhao Yue said: "If I tell you to go back to sleep now—"
"Then I'll curl up in bed and cry." Wen Liunian was very calm.
Zhao Yue felt that he was about to be laughed at by him.
"Go." Master Wen smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Let's go to the front hall."
