Chapter 068 Jin丨Exclusive publication by Jiang Wenxue
After tidying up the robes on his body, Liu Yixuan looked at Wanyan Kang, as if wondering why he didn't come in. Wanyan
Kang didn't think anything was wrong when he came, but now he felt embarrassed. He walked into the house quickly and looked around: "Sister, are you feeling better? This place is too simple and looks deserted."
Liu Yixuan smiled at him, came to the table, picked up a pen and paper: Thank you for your concern, little prince, I'm fine now. I like quiet places, and this is just what I want.
Liu Yixuan finished writing and handed the paper over.
Wanyan Kang saw that he was not dressed as neatly as usual, and looked lazy and weak, which made him look more elegant. The paper he received had a faint scent of ink. It was obviously very rough rice paper, not as smooth and white as the paper he used. But in Liu Yixuan's eyes, he seemed a bit noble, as if he didn't care about these vulgar things.
Liu Yixuan saw him in a trance, raised her hand and touched his forehead.
Wanyan Kang moved his eyes away from the paper: "Sister's hands are so cold, are you cold? Why don't you wear more clothes?"
Liu Yixuan rolled up her sleeves and shook her head with a smile.
Wanyan Kang said with a smile: "If I were younger, or a woman, I wouldn't have to be so cautious when I was around you. I could just hold your hand and put it in my arms to warm you up."
Liu Yixuan's smile faded a little, and she frowned slightly, looking at him unhappily.
System: [Is he teasing you?]
Xue Chen: [I think he is just being mean. In the original novel, when he met Mu Nianci, he obviously didn't want to marry her, but he went to the arena to participate in the martial arts competition to recruit a bride, and deliberately took off the girl's shoes in public.]
System: [From this point of view, he is quite good to you.]
Xue Chen: [I am close to Bao Xiruo, so he dare not do anything too much.]
Liu Yixuan picked up the pen and wrote: How can you be so dissolute and ignorant of etiquette? You know that these things should not be done, why do you still say them out loud? The brother-sister relationship between you and me is innocent, but it is not good when you say this.
Wanyan Kang blinked and looked at him pitifully: "I was wrong, sister. I am really worried about your health. I have no intention of offending you. I just can't help wanting to be close to you, but I really don't know how to do it... Sister, don't be angry with me."
System: [Don't believe it, he is just pretending!]
Xue Chen: [Of course I know he is pretending. Wasn't my mother fooled by him like this? This little bastard is too skilled at apologizing and has no intention of repenting. It is not easy to discipline him.]
System: [Do you want to care about him?]
Xue Chen: [To be honest, I don't really want to care. This is not what Xiao Liu should do. But when I think about how this thing will get worse and worse in the future, I have the illusion that I have traveled back to the time when my brother just became perverted. I have the illusion that if I don't care now, I will regret it for the rest of my life. 】
System: [It's hard to teach children...]
Xue Chen: [I said it was an illusion, I don't care. Let him go this time, if he dares to do something bad again in the future, it won't be solved by an apology. Wanyan Kang
saw that Liu Yixuan had no reaction, so he untied the jade pendant from his waist and held it in his hands and handed it to her: "This jade pendant was given to me by my father. I don't know anything about jade, and I just wear it for show. This jade is clear and translucent, and it goes very well with you, so I'll give it to you as a gift."
Liu Yixuan shook her head and lowered her head and wrote: "I forgive you this time, I don't want this jade, please take it back.
" Wanyan Kang forced it on him: "Sister, you can take it. I already feel it's inappropriate for me to come to visit you empty-handed, not to mention that I sincerely think that you are suitable for this piece of jade."
Seeing his earnest words and resolute attitude, Liu Yixuan could not refuse and had to accept it.
Wanyan Kang was delighted: "Since you accepted my things, I can't be angry anymore. By the way, why didn't you wear the gold bell I gave you last time? Don't you like it?"
Liu Yixuan shook her head and looked around, but couldn't find a good gift to return. While she was thinking, many people suddenly came outside.
Wanyan Honglie came in and saw Wanyan Kang and Liu Yixuan in the same room, frowned: "Kang'er, why are you here?"
Wanyan Kang said mischievously: "Xiao Liu is my adopted sister, she is sick, of course I have to come to see her, father, why did you come here? And you made such a big scene, what did you bring?"
Wanyan Honglie ignored him and looked directly at Liu Yixuan.
Liu Yixuan stood up and saluted him.
Wanyan Honglie: "No need to be polite. You are still sick and should have rested well. Kang'er must have come here suddenly and woke you up. After returning, I will discipline him. He is really a mess."
Liu Yixuan shook his head lightly.
Wanyan Honglie: "The place where you live was originally uninhabited and many things were missing. I ordered people to bring some medicinal herbs here to replace all kinds of furniture."
Liu Yixuan smiled gratefully.
Wanyan Honglie's eyes swept over him, and after seeing his smile, he turned his eyes back and couldn't help but look at him a few more times. He smiled and said: "It is said that people are divided into groups. I think even if they are different people, they will have similarities after spending a long time together."
Liu Yixuan looked at him in confusion.
Wanyan Kang asked, "What are the similarities?"
Wanyan Honglie smiled and pressed Wanyan Kang's shoulders hard: "Kang'er, shouldn't you be taking lessons with your master at this time? Why did you come here?"
Wanyan Kang hugged him and said coquettishly, "I can't study all day long, otherwise I will become a fool. Dad, I'll go and see what you have sent over. I will also send some gifts to my sister someday."
Wanyan Honglie didn't let him run away: "Xiao Liu still needs to rest, don't make trouble, go back."
Wanyan Kang saw the unquestionable look in his father's eyes, and said yes obediently and left the courtyard.
Xue Chen: [It seems that Wanyan Kang's nature is not too bad. Wanyan Honglie is largely responsible for his becoming like that in the original book.]
System: [How did you know that? 】
Xue Chen:【Why would Wanyan Honglie object to Wanyan Kang and I being alone together?】
System:【Are you afraid that you two will develop feelings for each other?】
Xue Chen:【He does teach his son well at night, but I guess he is not teaching Wanyan Kang to be considerate of others, but telling Xiao Liu that her status is too low and she is not worthy of him. The wife he will marry in the future must be a noblewoman of the Jin Kingdom, so that she will be helpful to him in the future.】
In the original novel, after Wanyan Kang appeared, he soon learned his identity.
In the brief passage before knowing his identity, he mentioned more than once that he was going to marry a noblewoman from the Kingdom of Jin.
Bao Xiruo certainly had not taught him this, and Qiu Chuji would never have taught him this. No one else would have said this to him except Wanyan Honglie.
It can be said that Wanyan Kang's dependence on and yearning for power were cultivated by Wanyan Honglie. It's just that Wanyan Honglie himself married Bao Xiruo, who had no power, which made people ignore this point, making Wanyan Kang seem like a born bad guy.
After coaxing his son away, Wanyan Honglie ordered the servants to move out the cabinets outside and replace them with new furniture.
System: [Fortunately, those documents were either sent away or burned, otherwise it would be dangerous now! Wanyan
Honglie said: "Xiao Liu, are you satisfied?"
Liu Yixuan nodded.
Wanyan Honglie: "You are weak and cannot be without someone to serve you. I have transferred four maids to serve you. If you have any problems in the future, just tell them."
He clapped his hands, and the women standing outside lined up and went in one after another, saluting Liu Yixuan.
Liu Yixuan's eyes swept over the four people and bowed deeply to Wanyan Honglie.
Wanyan Honglie said with satisfaction: "You should have a good rest. I will not disturb you and will come to visit you another day."
Liu Yixuan brought four maids to see him off, and did not turn back until he could no longer be seen.
System: [Xiao Liu's dizziness is too good, right? I feel that Wanyan Honglie's attitude towards you has changed now. 】
Xue Chen: [Are you sure those four aren't spies planted around me? 】
System: [Ah...]
Xue Chen: [They were 100% sent to monitor me. I had to sneak out at night to steal things and find a way to avoid them. But from another perspective, Wanyan Honglie must have seen my value, so he went to such great lengths. 】
System: [What is he going to ask you to do? 】
Xue Chen: [I'm not sure about the details. The only things that can be used on Xiao Liu are her looks and cooking skills. Wanyan Honglie has no shortage of beauties around him, but Xiao Liu can't speak and is also lacking in loyalty, so it shouldn't be the former. He is more likely to want to use Xiao Liu's craftsmanship, but it is very likely a long-term project. 】
System: [Open a restaurant? 】
Xue Chen: [...Is that all you can think of? 】
The system started thinking: 【He wanted Xiao Liu to cook, and then use it to pull your body? 】
Xue Chen: 【???】
System: 【After all, you like to eat so much, just make some delicious food, and you can be kidnapped. 】
Xue Chen: 【That's my hobby. Liking food doesn't affect my IQ. Don't make me sound like a mentally retarded person. But you, you have been in a daze all the time, don't you need to reflect on yourself? 】
System: 【……】
Liu Yixuan sat back at the desk and wrote: You don't have to stay with me all the time. I will call you over if there is something.
The four maids were named Zhen'er, Bao'er, Zhu'er, and Yu'er, which sounded magnificent and wealthy.
Zhen'er said hesitantly, "Miss, won't you feel bored being alone?"
Liu Yixuan wrote: I can't speak, but I feel uncomfortable when I'm with people. In fact, I'm more accustomed to being alone, and I feel more comfortable that way.
Zhen'er responded and withdrew with the other three.
Liu Yixuan acted unconventional and did not arrange accommodation for them, but he kept observing them and made sure they lived in the yard next door.
The four of them, headed by Zhen'er, lived in two rooms in total, Zhen'er and Bao'er in one room, and Zhu'er and Yu'er in another. The four of them were also divided into two rounds and guarded outside Liu Yixuan's yard.
In the evening, Zhen'er brought dinner, and Bao'er was boiling medicine outside.
Liu Yixuan simply ate something, drank the medicine, and fell asleep in the candlelight.
Zhen'er whispered, "Girl, go to bed and sleep, be careful not to catch a cold."
Liu Yixuan nodded with sleepy eyes, untied her hairpin, took off her coat with Zhen'er's help, waved her hand to let her leave, took off her shoes and socks by herself, and went to bed.
System: [I was scared to death, I thought she was going to find out.]
Xue Chen: [Calm down.]
System: [What should I do in the future? You can't just not have your period forever, right?]
Xue Chen: [If you don't want to have your period, then don't have it. What can they do to me!]
System: [You won't be able to get married.]
Xue Chen: [Do you know what the difference is between you and Xiao Mian?]
System: [Where? 】
Xue Chen:【The nuclear bomb is the only thing missing.】
System:【……】
As he said this, he took out his nightgown from under the bed, put it on quickly, wrapped himself up, turned back to tidy up the quilt, pretended to be someone sleeping, opened the window, and jumped out.
He flew across the roof skillfully and came to Wanyan Kang's study.
System:【What are you doing here? We haven't finished exploring Wanyan Honglie's place yet.】
Xue Chen:【Tonight Wanyan Honglie is going to instill in his son an incorrect view of choosing a mate. The conversation will most likely take place in the study. If they are trapped inside, something could easily go wrong. Why not come to Wanyan Kang's place to see if we can find any loopholes.】
There were no guards outside Wanyan Kang's study, but the locks used were the same as those on his father's.
Liu Yixuan took out a hairpin, unlocked the door, quietly pushed the door open, turned around and closed it, first looked around the room for a while, then began to look through the books in the moonlight.
Most of the books here are books and calligraphy, and there are not many things related to political affairs. Liu Yixuan flipped through them for a while and basically figured out Wanyan Kang's learning progress.
He sighed to the system: [This kid is quite smart, but he doesn't study hard. He is not good at literature and martial arts. Compared with my brother in his youth, he is far behind.]
System: [How do you compare with your brother?]
Xue Chen: [That's the original owner, not me.]
System: [Okay, so who is better between the original owner and your brother?]
Xue Chen: [The original owner is better at studying, and my brother is better at martial arts. At that time, my brother should have been learning martial arts from Wu Ming. He was very talented and had a great teacher. I guess no one of his age could compare to him. Even now, my brother's martial arts skills are still in the top tier. 】
He flipped through the pages for a while, and suddenly heard a noise coming from outside. He quickly put the paper in his hand far away, and jumped lightly onto the beam.
"Kang'er, are you in there?" Someone pushed the door open. The moonlight was dim, and his face could not be seen clearly. Judging from the voice, it should be a middle-aged man.
The man took out a tinder, opened the bamboo tube outside, and blew it gently to light the spark.
Liu Yixuan found the right moment and jumped down from the beam.
The man was suddenly startled and drew his sword to attack him: "Who is it?"
Liu Yixuan's lightness skills were superb, and he dodged the sword. Like a fish swimming in the sea, he sank lightly into the darkness and soon disappeared.
The guards of the palace heard the noise, gathered together, and searched everywhere.
The original rules of guard defense were no longer applicable. Liu Yixuan lay on the roof, saw the direction of the guards' walking, and walked around a long circle before returning to his residence.
Standing on the roof, he saw Zhen'er and the others knocking on the door in front of the bedroom from a distance, so he went around to the back and climbed in through the window.
"Miss, are you okay?" Zhen'er shouted anxiously, "I am really worried. If you don't say anything, I will come in. Don't blame me, Miss."
Liu Yixuan took off his mask and hood, and without taking off his nightgown, he quickly lifted the quilt and lay down.
Zhen'er pushed the door open and walked quickly to the bedside. "Miss?"
Liu Yixuan squinted her eyes, trying to resist sleepiness. She looked extremely tired and said weakly, "Hmm?"
