"Lord Li has a good alcohol tolerance." Lord Wang said with a smile.
Li Yaonan did not respond, but just smiled faintly.
Lord Wang saw this and stopped trying to persuade him, instead he started chatting with others. Although the Hanlin Academy was filled with scholars, Li Yaonan counted them carefully and found that apart from Lord Liu and Lord Shen, it was hard to tell who the others were. They were usually very serious but now they were so unrestrained, including his third cousin, who were all enjoying playing with the beauties.
"A light silk fan with white orchid flowers, a slender waist and a jade belt dancing in the sky.
I thought she was a fairy descending from the earth, her smile was brighter than the stars. "
Zhang Qixian lifted the chin of the beauty beside him and praised softly.
"Good, good poem, please, Master Zhang."
"Please!" Zhang Qixian drank the wine in one gulp, with a proud look on his face. The petite woman beside him was shy and timid, looking at him with watery eyes.
Zhang Qixian looked at her with love and pity, and could not help but recite: "Her hair is white, her teeth are white, her eyebrows are green, her face is red like a blooming lotus, and her skin is white as cream."
Li Yaonan was too lazy to care about him. His cousin knew his limits anyway. If he could bring any woman home, his backyard would definitely not be able to accommodate them all.
Li Yaonan was extremely bored and did not quite understand the meaning of the so-called romantic and talented scholar, so he turned around and started chatting with Lord Liu.
Maybe he drank too much. As he was talking, Li Yaonan felt dizzy and his body started to feel hot. He rubbed his forehead, wondering if he had a cold. He always felt something was wrong, but the situation was not serious, so he didn't take it seriously. He just hoped that the banquet would be over soon.
"Has Lord Li drunk too much?" Lord Liu asked with concern, a hint of worry in his eyes.
Li Yaonan shook his head, holding back his physical discomfort and said, "It's OK, I can drink just fine."
Lord Liu nodded and said nothing more.
At this moment, a scream suddenly came from the side. The maid who was serving the dishes tripped over something and fell onto Li Yaonan.
If he was a romantic scholar or a gentleman, he would definitely open his arms and catch the maid. However, when it came to Li Yaonan, he was agile and quick. When he heard the sound, he immediately stood up and stood aside very quickly.
"Ouch!" The maid fell on the table, her body covered with leftover soup. She held up her waist and couldn't get up. There was no trace of her beauty left.
"..." Everyone's attention was attracted by the commotion here. Seeing the miserable state of the beautiful maid, more than one person was speechless. They never expected that Lord Li would be so unsympathetic to women.
Li Yaonan frowned, feeling somewhat dissatisfied. He was also implicated, and his clothes were soiled, with a large area of his robe wet. He was not feeling well, so he bowed to Lord Wang and said, "I am sorry for my rudeness. I am afraid I cannot stay with you for long. I hope Lord Wang will forgive me."
Lord Wang said apologetically, "Lord Li, please stop being like this. It's all my fault for not managing my household properly. My son is about the same age as you. Please change your clothes before you leave. Otherwise, this..."
Li Yaonan thought about it and realized that being wet was indeed uncomfortable, especially with the smell of vegetables. He smiled and said, "Thank you very much."
Then, a pretty maid came forward and respectfully asked him to leave. As for the maid who had just fallen, she was carried out with the help of others. She was probably sprained her waist and would not be able to get out of bed for at least a few days.
The further he went in, the more uncomfortable Li Yaonan felt. His body seemed to be getting hotter and hotter, and he felt like he was about to move.
As he was walking, Li Yaonan stopped, his heart suddenly startled, and he looked sharply at the maid who was leading the way: "Where is this place?"
The maid was startled and said hurriedly, "This is the North Garden. The young master's residence is in front. Lianxiang has gone to get clothes. If Master Li is in a hurry, why not wait in the side room? I will be back soon."
Li Yaonan thought about it and felt that it was not a good idea to enter the young master's courtyard, so he said, "I'll go to the side room and wait."
The maid responded with a sweet smile, and Li Yaonan's heart moved. He inexplicably felt that this maid was quite pretty, with smooth skin and a well-proportioned figure. He wondered what it would feel like to hold her under him.
Li Yaonan was shocked by his own thoughts and shook his head quickly. His husband was the only one in his mind.
The maid took him to a side room and hurriedly excused herself, "Master Li, please wait a moment. I will go and take a look."
Li Yaonan nodded, found a chair and sat down. Her husband's pretty face appeared in her mind. She felt hot and her handsome face flushed.
At this time, there was a noise outside and the door was gently opened. Li Yaonan felt dizzy and thought that the maid had brought clothes. He just wanted to go home quickly and press his husband under him to have sex with him.
"Lord Li." A gentle voice sounded, and a pair of delicate hands gently stroked Li Yaonan's chest.
It was so comfortable. In a daze, Li Yaonan just wanted more.
The man was delighted, and with his hands in an unruly manner, he came to Li Yaonan and hugged him tightly: "Master Li, Qing'er is willing to serve you."
Wang Qing had charming eyes and her clothes were extremely thin, revealing her skin. Her face was lightly made up, with rosy cheeks and a unique charm. That was because she was a woman.
Li Yaonan vomited with a "wow" sound. He was almost sober, but his mind was still firm. He understood at this moment that he must have been drugged. It was only his fault that he did not think about it in this way. Since he came to the ancient times, he had never come into contact with such dirty things. Even some talented and romantic men claimed that they were romantic but not vulgar. How could he have imagined that someone would drug him.
"Lord Li." Wang Qing looked aggrieved, with tearful eyes, looking at him lovingly.
Li Yaonan felt like he was about to vomit again. He didn't even bother to change his clothes. He pushed the person away and turned away. He must go home as soon as possible. He didn't want to make any irreparable mistakes. Once the relationship between a couple had a crack, it would be extremely difficult to repair it.
"Lord Li, Qing'er admires you and envies the deep love between you and your husband. Why don't you want to look at Qing'er more?" Wang Qing's face was covered with tears as he looked at Li Yaonan infatuatedly. If he could be with such a person, he would be willing to die. Anyway, his father would not let him have an easy life. If he was destined to be given away, he hoped that person would be Lord Li.
Li Yaonan felt nauseous and walked faster. He thought to himself, "That's a close call." If it was a woman who came over, he might not be able to control himself. Men always like to be horny in some aspects, especially in a situation like that. He couldn't guarantee that he could hold back.
Lord Wang was really kind-hearted. Seeing that his husband loved him deeply, he sent Shuang'er to him. He couldn't imagine how heartbroken his husband would be if he knew that he had let him down.
However, thanks to Lord Wang's thoughtfulness, Li Yaonan felt disgusted when he saw those Shuang'er who were wearing makeup. Apart from his husband, he had no interest in any Shuang'er. He only felt that they were dirty and too damn disgusting. His skin that was touched got goose bumps and he felt very uncomfortable all over. He didn't know if it was because of the effect of the medicine or because he was disgusted.
Li Yaonan tried his best to stay awake, and hurriedly left the palace. When he got out of the door, he quickly called a carriage, gave his address, and asked someone to take him back home.
In the carriage, Li Yaonan was feeling extremely hot and groaned. His clothes and hair became messy. He gritted his teeth and urged, "Hurry up."
"Okay." The coachman responded loudly. There were not many pedestrians on the street at night, and he was carrying an official, so he became bolder and waved the whip to speed up.
At the same time, not long after Li Yaonan left, Lord Wang waited and waited but he did not come back, so he invited all his colleagues to go and check it out, fearing that Lord Li had drunk too much and if something went wrong, he would be worried that he would not be able to explain himself.
Lord Liu and Zhang Qixian were worried, so they naturally nodded in agreement. It was not easy for others to just ignore it, as they were all colleagues after all.
Lord Wang led them to the backyard. Zhang Qixian's face became darker as he walked. People from small families might not understand, but for officials and their families, the backyard was not a place where outsiders could go. Zhang Qixian was annoyed and a little anxious, fearing that his little cousin would capsize in the gutter.
Didn't they almost capsize? The Li Mansion had no rules to begin with. The old lady's attempt to draw a tiger ended up with a dog. After Li Yaonan was adopted, the family was small and he married a man. The inner house was not so strict. How could he have thought of these things? He was able to react before because he felt that it was not good to go to someone else's place. It had nothing to do with any rules or etiquette. Moreover, he was dizzy at that time. It was rare for him to react in time. How could he be expected to pay attention to other things
The adults had different expressions. The children from poor backgrounds didn't think there was anything wrong, but the disciples from wealthy families were all smart people. They immediately felt something was wrong and had the intention of retreating. No matter what happened, they were not suitable to get involved.
However, now that they have come here, there is no way Lord Wang will allow them to leave.
Of course, there were also people whose eyes flickered with excitement. They had long disliked Li Yaonan, and if he could make a fool of himself today, it would be a great pleasure to everyone.
The group soon arrived at Yuanqing Pavilion and bursts of sobbing were heard from inside the house.
Lord Wang's face changed, and he was suddenly filled with anger. Zhang Qixian's heart tightened. Lord Wang's aggressive posture clearly showed that he wanted to catch someone committing adultery.
With a "bang", Lord Wang kicked the door open.
"Dad—" Wang Qing cried with tears in her eyes. She raised her head pitifully, her clothes half-removed, revealing her fair skin.
The people outside blushed and turned away quickly.
Lord Wang looked around the room and didn't see Li Yaonan. He felt unhappy and glared at his son secretly: "Why are you here?"
Before Wang Qing could reply, Zhang Qixian hurriedly said, "Sir Wang, do you think I should leave first? You..."
Before Zhang Qixian finished speaking, everyone nodded. Although Wang Qing was a double, he was Lord Wang's son after all. He was not like those prostitutes. It was indeed not good for them to be here.
Lord Wang was furious. How could he give in to him? Otherwise, all his efforts today would be in vain. He shouted at Wang Qing angrily, "Why are you crying? You are embarrassing yourself. Look at what you look like. We are hosting a banquet at home today, and you are here."
Wang Qing quickly understood his father's secret message and cried, "I never thought that there would be guests in the backyard, so, so..."
"Why?" Lord Wang was furious: "Explain it to me clearly."
"The child saw an adult here..." Wang Qing said, then lowered his head and sobbed softly.
"It turns out that Lord Li blasphemed your young master." Someone immediately followed suit.
Zhang Qixian's face was cold: "I don't think so. Lord Wang has good family education, but the maid actually brought a foreign guest into the inner house."
Lord Wang's face turned cold: "What do you mean, Lord Zhang? My son lives in Chenxiang Pavilion, not far from Yuanqing Pavilion, so I asked Lord Li to wait here. Who knew... ... Alas! It's all my fault."
After Lord Wang admitted his mistake, those who originally thought he was inappropriate began to sympathize with him. After all, Li Yaonan was a man, and the person in front of him was Shuang'er. If a man encountered such a situation, at most he would have a romantic story to tell, but Shuang'er would have no way to survive.
Some people were dissatisfied and blamed him, "Master Zhang, what you said is too much."
Wang Qing cried when he saw this, thinking that he had lost his innocence and there was no point in living in this world.
Zhang Qixian understood in his heart that this person wanted to send someone to his little cousin, but he didn't want to interrupt at this time. After all, he was not involved in the matter and didn't know what had happened. Looking at the attitudes of the adults, it was clear that most of them sympathized with Lord Wang. They had good intentions and allowed Li Yaonan to change clothes. Meeting the young master of the Wang Mansion was just an accident. At most, they could take the person back and give him a wife or concubine. In their eyes, it was no big deal.
