Chu Xinian had never kissed anyone before, but some things seemed to be learned without a teacher, without the need to learn or teach. He placed both hands on Xie Jingyuan's waist, then slowly tightened them, holding him in his arms. He gave Xie Jingyuan's right cheek a dense, close, and hot kiss, kissing all the old wounds one by one.
Xie Jingyuan felt the slight itch on his cheek and finally came back to his senses from the shock. But he felt a sudden panic in his heart. He grabbed Chu Xinian's shoulders, frowned and asked coldly: "What are you doing-"
The other party was avoiding him yesterday, why did he change his attitude today? If Chu Xinian used this kind of thing to tease him, it would be too chilling.
Chu Xinian rarely speaks directly, which is a flaw in his character. He glanced at Xie Jingyuan's eyes, which were so close to him. Their breaths blended together to form a fine net, trapping him tightly. He asked in a low voice, "General, what do you think I'm doing?"
He clenched Xie Jingyuan's uninjured hand and pressed it against his heart. His heart was beating strongly under his palm. Chu Xinian was silent for a moment before he spoke, "Can I give this piece of meat to the general?"
He said: "I will cut this piece of meat and give it to the general..."
Xie Jingyuan clenched his fingers tightly when he heard this, with a hint of disbelief. However, before he could say anything, he was suddenly pushed against the bed and kissed.
"Well… "
Xie Jingyuan didn't expect his action and groaned. Chu Xinian, this beast in human clothing, usually looks like a decent person, but in private, he is actually like this.
But why did my heart suddenly become so soft...
Is it because of the person in front of me...
Feeling Chu Xinian's deep and lingering kiss, Xie Jingyuan couldn't help but tremble his eyelashes. He wanted to push her away, but all his strength seemed to be drained away. His fingertips clenched tightly, and he was in a state of inner struggle. Finally, he fell on the bed without knowing when, and his vision suddenly dimmed.
Chu Xinian supported himself on top of Xie Jingyuan's body, carefully avoiding his wounds. He whispered in his ear, word by word, "There were some things I didn't understand yesterday, but now I finally understand... Where's the general?"
His light-colored pupils clearly reflected Xie Jingyuan's appearance, so serious, so meticulous.
Xie Jingyuan's chest rose and fell for a moment when he heard this. He couldn't explain why, but his heart suddenly felt swollen and sour. He lay under Chu Xinian and asked in a hoarse voice, "What have you figured out?"
Chu Xinian asked back: "General, don't you understand?"
Xie Jingyuan understood, but he wanted to hear Chu Xinian say it himself: "I don't understand."
"… "
Chu Xinian's Adam's apple moved, and he said vaguely: "General, you don't have to suspect that I am a spy sent by the King of Jin in the future."
Xie Jingyuan stared at him: "And then?"
Chu Xinian leaned over, kissed his lips, and finally spoke his mind: "From now on, I will be on the side that the general is on. Is it possible that you understand me?"
Xie Jingyuan wanted to say something else, but Chu Xinian didn't give him a chance and sealed it with a kiss. It was already Chu Xinian's limit to be able to confess his feelings to this extent. If he could be more explicit, he would be powerless.
He pried open Xie Jingyuan's teeth and teased him awkwardly, sometimes lingering on his scarred right face and kissing the crisscross marks.
"Chu Xi Nian..."
Xie Jingyuan was so sensitive that his whole body began to tremble. His fingertips fell on Chu Xinian's back, leaving red marks through his clothes, and his voice was hoarse, like joy and pain.
"Chu Xi Nian..."
Xie Jingyuan bit his lower lip and began to kiss him back, unwilling to be outdone. The words rolled between their intertwined tongues, a little unclear, but unable to hide his pride: "You like me?"
Xie Jingyuan is always so straightforward.
Chu Xinian didn't answer, and bit his earlobe in revenge. Xie Jingyuan not only didn't hide, but hugged his neck tightly, raised his eyebrows and asked again: "Do you like this general?"
Chu Xinian exhaled slowly and buried his face in his neck: "General, why bother asking again."
Xie Jingyuan's heart suddenly beat so fast that it almost jumped out of his throat. He ignored the injury on his arm, hugged Chu Xinian tightly, leaned against his shoulder and said to himself: "I thought..."
Chu Xinian asked: "Why?"
Xie Jingyuan did not speak. He swallowed the few remaining words and they gradually disappeared into the air without a trace.
I thought it was just wishful thinking...
Too many things happened at the banquet today. First, Qin Daoyan angered the Emperor of Yan and was taken to prison awaiting trial. Then, the Qiang people attempted to assassinate him in front of the palace and he is still under house arrest in the palace. It seems that a storm is coming.
However, none of this affected Xie Jingyuan's mood. He leaned on the soft pillow, looked at the wound on his right arm, then looked at Chu Xinian lying on the couch outside, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why don't you come over?"
Chu Xinian didn't sleep with him this time not because of anything else, but because he was afraid of touching his wound. Hearing this, he put down the book in his hand and smiled: "Let's talk about it after the general's injury is healed."
Hearing this, Xie Jingyuan touched his right arm, sneered silently, and looked sinister. Zhou Wenchen, that bastard, was extremely cruel. This injury will probably not heal for at least three months. I don't know whether this test was instructed by the Emperor of Yan or he acted on his own initiative, but he will not be spared.
Xie Jingyuan suddenly said, "Chu Xinian, don't you want to know who wielded that sword?"
Chu Xinian hummed and waited for the next words, but saw Xie Jingyuan hooking his fingertips at him and smiling maliciously: "Come here, I will tell you."
Chu Xinian saw through his thoughts at a glance and slowly turned a page of the book: "General, just speak directly. I have a pretty good hearing."
Seeing that he didn't take the bait, Xie Jingyuan felt bored. He had no choice but to blow out the candle and slowly lie down. He felt a little empty in his heart. He was thinking wildly, thinking that Chu Xinian was avoiding him.
With the candles extinguished, Chu Xinian could no longer read. He saw that the inner room was quiet, and after a moment of silence, he finally stood up, opened the curtain, walked in, and sat down quietly beside the bed.
Xie Jingyuan heard him coming and subconsciously opened his eyes: "What are you doing here?"
Chu Xinian said nothing. He untied his belt and took off his outer robe without saying a word. Then he lifted the quilt and lay down with him: "I will sleep with the general."
He gently stroked Xie Jingyuan's injured face in the dark night, and then kissed him on the cheek. Xie Jingyuan's breathing stagnated and became disordered, and he tilted his head to kiss him.
His uninjured hand fiddled with Chu Xinian's collar, and then pulled out the jade pendant with body temperature. He touched it like a treasure, and when he saw that it was not bruised or broken, he put it back.
Chu Xinian laughed softly when he saw this, his chest shaking: "General, you are so reluctant to part with it, how about I return it to you?"
Xie Jingyuan suddenly said: "This is what my father left me."
Chu Xinian was stunned.
Xie Jingyuan repeated in a low voice: "This is what my father gave me when I was born..."
Xie Tinglanyu brings honor to the family.
Just by looking at the two characters "Lanting", you can know what kind of expectations the person who gave him this name had for him. Xie Jingyuan's father may have thought that his son would become the most talented and brilliant young gentleman in the capital, but he didn't know that Xie Jingyuan had become neither a human nor a ghost, and half of his life had been ruined by the dark clouds.
Neither of them made a move for a while. After a long while, Chu Xinian slowly spoke, but his words did not match his personality and appearance: "Besides Qin Daoyan, what other enemies does the general have? Can I eliminate them for the general?"
Since he had written about Xie Jingyuan's life's sufferings, he should make them smoother. Chu Xinian had no way to change what Xie Jingyuan had experienced, but he could make his future path smoother.
Xie Jingyuan subconsciously looked at him when he heard that, but he saw that Chu Xinian's expression did not seem to be false, and paused: "You have no intention of fighting for power, so you don't have to force yourself to do those things. It would be a pleasant surprise to be able to get rid of Qin Daoyan."
Chu Xinian said: "It's okay, we have to find a way out anyway."
Being in the capital city, a turbulent place, being dragged into it is inevitable and there is no way to escape.
For the first time, Xie Jingyuan felt that the Emperor of Yan had finally done something that suited his heart, such as granting this marriage. He kissed Chu Xinian openly in the dark, curled his lips slightly, and chuckled in his ear: "I know that you don't want to join the prince's school at all."
Chu Xinian raised his eyebrows lightly: "Why do you say that?"
Xie Jingyuan said as a matter of course: "You think he is stupid."
Chu Xinian: “…”
Although it is true, but... Xie Jingyuan's words are really poisonous.
Chu Xinian considered and said: "Although the prince is frivolous, he may not be a talent that can be cultivated. If he wants to ascend to the throne, it won't be difficult."
As long as we get rid of King Jin, everything will be easy.
Xie Jingyuan heard the meaning behind his words and was silent for a moment: "…Although the prince is a little stupid, he is not a bad person. The ministers are not afraid of a kind emperor, but are most afraid of an emperor who is full of suspicion. If he can ascend the throne in the future, he will be better than many people."
Chu Xinian did not comment. After all, he did not know the prince's past. He said to Xie Jingyuan, "Prince Jin will be leaving for the capital soon. He is in the prime of his life and it is the easiest time for others to catch him. The prince must not take it lightly."
Xie Jingyuan listened to Chu Xinian's words and did not secretly harm the King of Jin. Instead, he sent people to spread rumors in the army and praised him to death. He said that the King of Jin was both civil and military, capable of leading troops to fight, and he single-handedly won over the army, even better than General Xie Bi at the time.
Thanks Wall.
These two words were taboo in the palace and were also the names that Emperor Yan feared the most. So when everyone thought that Emperor Yan would order a reward for Prince Jin, the palace was silent and there was no movement.
Xie Jingyuan couldn't help but feel lucky that he believed Chu Xinian's words. He leaned into Chu Xinian's arms in the dark night, his narrow eyes flashing with an inexplicable light, and asked quietly: "What do you think, how can we make the King of Jin fall flat on his face?"
Chu Xinian thought this was not easy: "I'll tell you tomorrow."
Well, actually, Xie Jingyuan thinks it doesn’t matter when to say it, what matters is…
"Chu Xinian, I'm cold..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man beside him sighed softly, pulled him into his arms, carefully avoiding Xie Jingyuan's wound and said, "It's getting late, go to bed."
Xie Jingyuan hummed, closed his eyes in his arms, and said nothing more.
The system was suspended in the air, staring at them expressionlessly:
Ding, please pay attention, the villain's black level has dropped to 69
Because of Chu Xi Nian's kiss...
Ding, please pay attention, the villain's blackness has dropped to 60
Because of Qin Daoyan’s defeat…
Ding, please pay attention, the villain's black level has dropped to 40
Because Chu Xi Nian...
Chu Xinian looked at the system with a slightly surprised look: "Why did it drop so much today?"
The system is still angry with him: Don’t talk to me.
Chu Xinian spoke a little later: "You..."
The system saw the two of them hugging each other and was so angry that it wanted to go crazy: Don’t even think about me paying attention to you, unless you break up right now! Humph!
Chu Xinian raised his eyebrows lightly: "Okay, you don't have to pay attention to me."
