Chapter 73 This Point Is Not That Point
Xia Silan sneered and went into the house.
Before leaving, the two heard a sigh from the cabin opposite: "Oh my."
Xia Silan: ...
Xia Yuan: ...
I know you two haven't seen each other for a long time, but could you please keep your voice down?
The little cat held the copper basin and became curious again: "Brother, is it fun to do that?"
Xia Silan pinched his face and said, "Go and get the hot water back to the house."
I gently admonished him: "Think about something else."
"But I heard that it hurts when Shuang'er does that!" Xia Yu'an stuck out her tongue, "And they are both men, how can men do it! It feels even more painful."
"...Okay, okay, I'll go get some water right away!"
Xia Yu'an couldn't stand the look in her brother's eyes, so she ran away.
It was not until I came back to help my brother treat his wounds that I realized how seriously he was injured.
Feeling something was wrong, Xia Yu'an forcefully lifted up Xia Silan's clothes.
As expected, in addition to the clavicle and chest, there were also injuries on the abdomen!
Xia Silan, on the surface, acted as if nothing had happened and dealt with the situation hastily outside, and kept it a secret since he came back.
The slanted wound on the abdomen was as neat as the one on the face, but it was much larger.
The beauty covered her mouth with her hands and said, "It's not a big deal, cough, cough..."
"Isn't this a big deal?" Xia Yu'an's eyes widened and he criticized, "Look at what you can do!"
"Who said that? Tell the truth!"
Xia Silan was helpless and said obediently: "Wrong."
Humph, that’s better!
Xia Yu'an lowered his head again, bent down and carefully helped him treat the wound on his abdomen.
The thin and well-proportioned abdominal muscles were very beautiful, but Xia Yu'an had no time to appreciate them. His hands swept over the lines, cleaned the wound, applied medicine, and tied a bandage. When he put the bandage on the deepest part of the wound, his hand trembled slightly.
Xia Silan held Xia Yu'an in his arms and went to bed. Perhaps because he was injured and particularly fragile, he held Xia Yu'an very tightly.
"Don't touch your wound." Xia Yu'an said softly in the darkness.
I don't know who was injured, why do I care more and feel more distressed than him!
"You really don't take care of yourself!" whispered.
The boat was swaying, and the two of them were pressed closer together. Xia Silan loosened his hand a little and said weakly, "It was my brother who was wrong."
"Brother is wrong."
For a moment, Xia Yu'an felt as if he was the older brother. He turned over excitedly and expressed his feelings: "It feels so good to be a older brother!"
Xia Silan chuckled and rubbed the kitten's ears: "Go to sleep."
After Xia Yu'an fell asleep, Xia Silan got up and looked at Xia Yu'an's sleeping face deeply.
His loose clothes hung on his shoulders, his chest was open, and his silver hair was draped over his back.
He stretched out his hand, wanting to depict Xia Yu'an's eyebrows and eyes, but then retracted his hand.
Just looking at her quietly, with a certain emotion overflowing in her eyes, as if she said everything silently.
Only at this time do you not need to hide your feelings, but let them out to see the light of day.
Xia Yu'an moved slightly. It was the middle of the night and he seemed a little cold.
Xia Silan tucked the quilt in for him and patted his back.
Like coaxing a cub.
I don't know how much time passed.
The subordinates were already waiting outside. Xia Silan put on his clothes, stepped over Xia Yu'an, and got out of bed.
"My Lord."
As if he wasn't hurt, Xia Silan nodded calmly: "Yeah."
"Ready to set off..." The subordinate looked at the wound on Xia Silan's abdomen that Sen Wan was fixing. Although it was covered by clothes, the outline of the bandage could still be seen.
Xia Silan raised his hand.
I am very happy, so why don’t you go?
The master is in such a bad condition, it is better not to go...
Xia Silan stood by the door, peeking at the people in the room.
How to express love.
Forget it. Instead of doing this, I might as well bury it deep in my heart and not ask for his response.
"Owner."
"good."
Take one more look before leaving.
.
The next day, Xia Yu'an didn't notice anything unusual. When he woke up, Xia Silan was sleeping next to him. The little cat didn't even realize that his brother had gone out.
When Shao Guangdi came out from the deck, he was alone and there was no sign of Xiao Yingwei.
It seems that the two of them haven't completely reconciled yet!
Emperor Shao, you must use force!
Xia Yu'an's look was a bit disdainful.
Emperor Shaoguang felt uncomfortable with the kitten's gaze: "Ahem, ahem..."
"You all know it."
That's right, I know everything. It was just a coincidence that I heard the whole thing. I'm so embarrassed!
Sorry, we didn't mean it!
Emperor Shaoguang who heard the voice of the heart: ...
I wish I could find a crack in the ground.
"Then I won't say any more. I still have to chase someone."
"Go, go, love must fly bravely! That's the right thing to do! When facing such a person, you have to cling to him till death!"
Shao Guangdi flew towards another ship in a wolfish manner at Xia Yu'an's voice. He always felt that Xia Yu'an's serious expression was like a mockery.
"Brother, what has he been doing?"
Xia Silan said, "Mu Bujian is working here as a hauler, so he might be carrying the heavy bags."
The Emperor and the little shadow guard were carrying a large bag at the bottom of the cargo ship? ? This is true love without a doubt!
No one would have thought that Your Majesty would carry the heavy bag in Yuejiang for eighteen days.
It was more than half a month later when I returned with my little guard.
It worked! Is this the power of official matchmaking?
Xia Yu'an couldn't help but sigh.
The group finally hurried back from Yuejiang, in a mighty procession, and of course they brought the little shadow guard with them.
.
During this period, Xia Silan dealt with many things, including the case of pirates who migrated from Yuejiang River in the capital to the Jiangnan area.
No one knew what happened that day. Xia Yu'an only knew that Xia Silan had blood on his hands, but Emperor Shao Guang was very happy and said that he had helped him solve a major problem.
That thief... is the force left behind by Shisan Niang who once bullied my brother.
Xia Yu breathed a sigh of relief and felt very happy!
I heard that all the people under Shisan Niang were not good people, they were cruel and ruthless, and killed people like flies. It was just that the imperial court took advantage of the situation to pay for the flood and the investigation in the suburbs of Beijing was strict, so they had to flee to the Jiangnan area.
The sky is high and the emperor is far away here, and the power has been strengthened a lot.
This time my brother killed their leader, it was such a joy!
However, Tianyou still has other high-ranking officials to track down! Especially the leader!
"Young Master, Young Master, what are you thinking about?" Shi Liu waved his hand in front of Xia Yu'an.
Now that Xia Yu'an is back, she is very happy.
"Young Master, of course I am thinking about happy things!"
"Happy things?" What was that? Could it be that during the days when he was away, His Highness and Young Master...
"Shi Liu, why is your face red?" Xia Yu'an asked in confusion: "Fever?"
Shi Liu stamped her feet. Oh no! Well, well, it seems she was just overthinking it!
How presumptuous!
"Humph! What are you thinking about? It's inappropriate for children!"
"Young Master!! You are not suitable for children!!"
"I'm an adult, of course I'm not suitable for children!" he said without hesitation.
"Young Master, you haven't even met... Oh, how can you be considered an adult?"
"No and, what?"
"It's OK!"
"What about you, Pomegranate? Have you ever had a crush on someone? During the time we were away, have you and Sixteen...?"
"Young Master!" Shi Liu's face flushed red. She threw the note in her hand at Xia Yu'an and walked away. "I originally had a piece of happy news to tell you. Now, Young Master, you can read it yourself!"
What good news?
"Stop." Xia Yu'an said leisurely as he unfolded the letter.
After all, he was a servant, so Shi Liu had no choice but to stand by the door.
It's neither right to leave nor right to stay, huh!
But... why did the young master's tone and expression just now sound so much like the master?
Just like the other! !
If you don’t know, you would think they are brothers!
It turned out that the content of the letter was that Hongshao had completely conquered the Second Aunt...
.
"You actually secretly put the family property of the Marquis' Mansion into your private property, you are a glutton!"
"You still want to secretly poison Hongshao!" Xia Yantai grabbed Hongshao's waist and said, "What did Hongshao do to you?"
"Master! I didn't! You have forgotten the old one because you have found the new one!"
Xia Yantai was stunned for a moment: "Still trying to make excuses!"
"Someone, come and punish this shameless woman with family rules! Fifty lashes of the cane!"
The Second Aunt was taken away crying bitterly. She looked at Hongshao with hatred. Hongshao looked back, meaning: Xia Yantai likes new things and hates old things, didn't you know that?
If it weren't for his temper, how could you have squeezed Xue Fu out?
Xue Fu has conquered the country and the city, how can it be your turn?
But, damn it, really damn it, it’s not just the Second Aunt, the more hateful one is this man Xia Yantai.
Lustful, fond of new things and dislike of old things, treacherous and disloyal.
Poor Xuefu.
Now, for Hong Shao, entering the Marquis' Mansion is more than just a transaction with Xia Yu'an.
The more I know about Xue Fu's past, the more distressed I feel.
"Master, forget it... See how miserable she is, just show some mercy." Hongshao covered her face and acted distressed.
"You white lotus, you are so mean and hypocritical, ah——"
"Forget it, she won't appreciate it at all." Lord Xiahou was a little hesitant at first, but when he heard this, his hesitation disappeared, and he held Hongshao's waist and left, "Let's go."
"That property?"
"She has disappointed me greatly. From now on, all the properties of the Marquis' Mansion will be managed by you."
In fact, Xia Yu'an had already moved most of the important properties in the Marquis's Mansion, but a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and the remaining properties are enough for Hongshao to live out her life leisurely.
Hongshao sat alone in the living room.
Now she is the only one in charge of the Marquis's Mansion, and all financial accounts have to pass through her hands. Should she continue to be a concubine of the old Marquis, or... ?
Finally, Hongshao frowned and made up her mind that the old man, the culprit, should not be let off!
She was unwilling to spend her whole life in the Marquis's Mansion. People should be free!
Hongshao unfolded the medicine wrapped in white paper with her rosy-haired fingers and gently poured it into the teacup.
"Sir, please have some tea."
"Hey, it's still Hongshao, you understand me... caring... cough cough..."
"Master, are you okay?"
"It's okay... cough cough cough..."
…
Xia Yu'an closed the note. He already knew everything that happened in the Marquis' Mansion. It was really gratifying! !
However, he didn't expect that Hongshao, a woman of dust, would choose to take over the property and leave the mansion! !
With such determination and means, women are no less capable than men!
Of course, he promised Hongshao nothing less.
In this way, it can be considered as revenge for my brother and Xuefu.
Second Aunt deserved what she got for what she did.
I heard that before the Marquis died, he sold the Second Concubine. Now, the Second Concubine has become a real prostitute.
Whatever you do, you will get what you deserve. It never fails.
Also, Hongshao actually became good friends with the Ninth Princess?
Are you still living together now?
Interesting, interesting.
This is why like-minded souls always collide!
However, Xia Yu'an frowned. He also had a lot of problems on his side...
Xiaogua: "Host, if you want to successfully pass this world and get points, you must destroy 'Tianyou'."
"I know."
"But……"
night.
Xia Yu'an sat alone in front of the window.
Dark clouds obscured the moonlight, and slowly, Xia Yu'an felt the wind blowing the summer flowers outside the window down along with their petals.
My brother has been out a lot these days and comes back covered in injuries.
Xia Yu'an knew that he went to investigate Tianyou.
The world has gone out of control. Tianyou is extraordinarily powerful. If Xia Yuan doesn't do everything himself, he knows that it is almost impossible to destroy Tianyou.
A storm is coming.
My brother hasn't come home yet.
This is the latest one.
Is that so?
I can hardly remember.
Suddenly, a figure came.
Xia Silan jumped in from the window and looked at Xia Yu'an and the swaying candlelight.
"Why aren't you asleep yet?"
“I’m waiting for the sound of rain.”
"I'm here."
"Go to sleep." Xia Silan said softly.
Xia Yu'an stood up and hugged Xia Silan tightly.
He knew that his brother was injured again.
He couldn't lose his brother.
After not seeing each other for just one day, Xia Yu'an knew what it meant to miss someone so much.
I miss Xia Silan every moment when he is not around.
Xia Yu'an slightly loosened the hand that was holding Xia Silan, lowered his head and gently lifted up his bloodstained clothes.
Where did my brother go? Who did he meet? Why is it so dangerous...
He wanted to ask, but couldn't.
Because I know my brother won’t tell.
"It's okay, just a minor injury."
Xia Silan said lightly, his eyes becoming more gentle.
Then, he took the youngest son to the bed and forcefully covered him with a quilt.
This kid, when he said he was waiting for the sound of rain, he was actually waiting for him.
Can't sleep without the sound of rain?
Or... can't sleep without him?
Xia Silan reached out and touched Xia Yu'an's face.
I wish...
Xia Yu'an has a share of him in her heart.
Not a point for a brother.
