Chapter 26 The General is a Monster Who Eats Human Essence
When he arrived at Anyuan Marquis' Mansion, he didn't see Wei Qingyan, and Shi Yu felt a little disappointed.
Du Xueyi felt uneasy when he saw Shi Yu, who was dressed like a peacock with its tail spread out, and the several large boxes and cages he brought with him.
Shi Yu came to the appointment in such a grand manner, could it be that he has taken a fancy to me?
After all, he likes men.
He raised his hand and touched his face. Although not as delicate as the general's, his features were still handsome, better looking than many men in the capital...
As he thought about it, he couldn't help but shudder, and his eyes looked at Shi Yu with a little more vigilance.
Shi Yu's face was as gloomy as water.
After spending so many years with Du Xueyi, even if he couldn't guess everything about his thoughts, he could at least figure it out. Not wanting to let him continue to think about it, he tapped the table with his fingers and asked, "What is the purpose of sending me here?"
What's the matter?
Nothing!
But the general gave the task!
Du Xueyi quickly straightened his expression, picked up the wine pot and filled the wine cups in front of the two people. "I haven't had a good time with the prince since returning to the capital for half a year. I want to chat with the prince today."
Want to drink?
Shi Yu looked at him with a half-smile, "Why would Marquis Anyuan think of reminiscing with me today?"
"Your Highness, when you say this, Xueyi should be heartbroken. You and I have known each other for many years and can be considered old friends."
Du Xueyi sighed, "The General's accident made Xueyi feel bad, and seeing old friends made him more vulnerable, so he distanced himself from the prince.
Seeing Yan Lan these past few days has reminded me of the general, but I've also learned that I can't neglect my friends just because I've lost someone."
After saying that, he got goose bumps all over his body, picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
I didn't take the initiative to look for Prince Rong because we had been separated for many years and when I returned, everything had changed.
And the complex emotions in his heart.
I am grateful for what Prince Rong has done for the general, and feel guilty that I haven't done as much for the general as he has.
I couldn't bear to see him looking so sick.
Shi Yu stroked the wine cup with his fingers and went over Du Xueyi's words in his mind.
Although the secret guards were unable to follow into Feng Xiaoyuan that day, they didn't know what Du Xueyi and Wei Qingyan said inside.
But judging from Du Xueyi's attitude towards Wei Qingyan, he was very sure that Wei Qingyan had revealed his identity in front of Du Xueyi.
He also raised his head and swallowed the wine, feeling a little sour in his heart.
He smiled and said, "Xue Yi is right. We only need to look forward to the future."
He repeated the word "backward" in his mind.
Today's dinner was ordered by Xiao Yan.
Du Xueyi quickly filled his glass again and asked, "Is your Highness feeling better now?"
If things were still the same as before, he would have to take it easy.
Shi Yu raised his glass, drank it down in one gulp, and asked tentatively, "What does Xue Yi think?"
His eyes seemed to glance casually at the wine jar beside Du Xueyi.
A total of ten altars.
This was intended to get him drunk.
Du Xueyi carefully observed his expression and nodded, "I see that the prince is much better than before. Has he found a good doctor?"
Shi Yu shook his head, "No."
Du Xueyi didn't know why he was in good health, so what was Xiao Yan's purpose in getting him drunk?
He continued, "To be honest, I should thank your sister for my recovery."
"My sister?"
Du Xueyi didn't realize who his sister was and was stunned for a moment.
Shi Yu raised the corners of his lips slightly, and told Du Xueyi what happened in the hot spring that day, omitting the part about Wei Qingyan giving him Qi, "I was planning to visit you soon, both to express my gratitude and to apologize.
I brought some things for my daughter, please help me pass them on to Miss Chang."
Du Xueyi was being polite but muttering to himself that those big boxes were for the general.
It gave him a false alarm.
The general had not told him about the hot springs.
He looked at Shi Yu again and saw that he was indeed much more energetic. Could it be that the general gave him some magic medicine?
It's not impossible. The general hates to owe favors to others. Prince Rong's illness was caused by him, so he will definitely not ignore it.
So, if we invite Prince Rong to drink today, do we need to do anything for him?
Thinking of this, he filled Shi Yu's glass again and raised it, saying, "Xue Yi congratulates the prince on his recovery. Come, cheers."
Shi Yu clinked his glass with his and drank it all.
Seeing that he drank several cups without even picking up his chopsticks, Du Xueyi said, "Your Highness, please eat some food first. Drinking on an empty stomach is most harmful to your health. You are in good health now, so you should take care of yourself."
Shi Yu smiled. This was why Xiao Yan valued Du Xueyi so much.
Although he is not very smart, he has a rare good heart.
He is also a trustworthy person. "Xueyi, please keep the fact that the king has recovered a little secret from outsiders."
Du Xueyi thought of Prince Rong being trapped in the capital by the Emperor and nodded in understanding, "Don't worry, Your Majesty."
If the emperor knew that Prince Rong had recovered, he would probably be wary of him again.
The two clinked their glasses, and everything was said without words.
They passed the cups to each other, and when they were halfway through, Yu directly picked up the jar of wine and each of them drank from one jar.
With the wine, they talked more, as if they had returned to the past. Du Xueyi was filled with emotion, and fearing that Shi Yu would become suspicious, he couldn't help but drink a little more.
But he always kept the general's mission in mind and tried his best to get drunk after Shi Yu.
When Wei Qingyan came over, Du Xueyi, who had maintained the last bit of sobriety, pointed at Shi Yu and said, "He's drunk. Is his body okay after drinking for so long?"
After feeling Shi Yu's pulse, Wei Qingyan said, "He's fine. You've drunk too much. Go back first."
Du Xueyi was curious, but still obediently walked out of the house.
He had indeed drunk a bit too much, and he was even staggering as he walked. You know, that was the strongest liquor he had found on the market.
When I walked out of the yard, I remembered that Dongzang and Jingzhe had been taken to the kitchen by A Lu for meals.
If the general wants to do something for Prince Rong, someone should be on duty, right?
He shook his head and recalled that the general didn't seem to have told him not to guard outside.
That means he can guard outside.
As I thought this, I turned back.
When I walked to the door and saw that it was open, I subconsciously stuck my head in and was so startled that I burped, "Uh... uh..."
The general is close to the prince.
To be precise, the general was sucking King Rong's mouth!
The story I heard in the army suddenly came to my mind, about monsters that survived by sucking the essence of men.
Is this how the general came back to life?
"General... General... don't be impulsive..." He spoke with great difficulty, "This is Prince Rong, he... he is our friend... we can't hurt him, he is still a prince..."
I can't die.
Wei Qingyan looked at him with amusement, "What else?"
She had intended to replenish her vitality and leave immediately.
Unexpectedly, Shi Yu held her lips tightly, just like the first time, which made her unable to retreat in time even though she heard the footsteps.
When Shi Yu let her go, she was worried that the vitality she had just stored in her body would be sucked away by him again, so she took two more breaths.
He was caught red-handed by Du Xueyi.
Looking at his expression as if there were two villains fighting in his heart, you can tell what he is thinking just by guessing with your toes.
The general is a man-eating monster!
He was facing a difficult decision: should the general continue to live or let Prince Rong sacrifice himself?
In the end, he bravely went to his death and said, "However, General, you should take my energy and leave me half-life."
It should be enough to keep half of my life to accompany Xiaoxiao to grow up.
Wei Qingyan held his forehead helplessly, unable to explain to a drunkard, so he pulled him out of the house.
The drunk Shi Yu opened his eyes with a serious expression.
Of course he knew Xiao Yan didn't want to kill him.
So what does Du Xueyi mean?
Did Xiao Yan kiss him to prolong his life?
