"Ah?" Yan Shitu frowned, then coughed and said, "How about this!"
What is this!!
Yan Shiyue was going crazy: "Yan Shitu, can you be more reliable? Tell me first, how did you meet?"
"Hey," Yan Shitu said, "Don't ask around, I know what's going on!"
I wish you knew it! Yan Shiyue grabbed his collar and said, "No, I'm worried. Tell me quickly!"
Yan Shitu frowned and said, "It's really hard to say! Just listen to me. I'm your brother, how can I not know the importance of this matter?"
He pulled her hand away and backed away: "I remembered that I have something else to do. I'll leave first!" He ran away like a dog.
Yan Shiyue chased after him for two steps, speechless.
She really isn't the type to worry about such things, but her silly brother is following her now, and that's her responsibility. What should she do if she doesn't care?
But when he came back at night, Chu Ningyuan said with a smile: "Just ask me about this matter, no one else knows."
...
...
What is going on?
When they were not on duty, they sometimes went out hunting. Because Yan Shitu was sometimes a little reckless and was new, Chu Ningyuan was entrusted by Huo Qijing to often accompany him.
Then a few days ago, when they went out, they remembered what Huo Qijing said, that Yan Shiyue was trapping rabbits at home, so the two of them made a rabbit trap, the kind with a rope loop, and went hunting. When they came back, they heard someone calling for help. When they looked over, they saw that a person had stepped into the rabbit trap, with his foot stuck in it and unable to get out.
When Yan Shitu saw it, he felt very sorry and hurried forward to help.
But this kind of rope loop was getting tighter and tighter, so Yan Shitu asked him to lie down half-way and stretch out his legs so that she could cut him. But when she stretched out her hand, she touched something and the man slapped her in the face and called her a lecher.
Only then did Yan Shitu realize that this was a girl.
Chu Ningyuan said: "When I first looked at her, I really couldn't tell that she was a girl. She was wearing men's clothes, her face was dirty, and her movements were not shy. Then I put down my prey and went to unsheathe my knife. When I heard the sound and looked up, Yan Shitu was already approaching."
After getting slapped, the rope still had to be cut. Yan Shitu apologized repeatedly, then bent down to cut it. Chu Ningyuan went over to help, and saw that the two men's expressions were not quite right, and they were blushing and dodging.
He didn't want to watch any longer, so he started a fire nearby, roasted the hunting fork until it turned red, and then burned the rope loop.
Then the girl limped, and Yan Shitu said he would not let anyone report it, so she said she sneaked out. Then the three of them waited there for a while, and finally sent the girl back quietly after she recovered.
Yan Shiyue frowned when he heard this: "Do you often hunt in that place?"
"No," Chu Ningyuan said, "I know what you are worried about. We don't hunt often, and we don't hunt in one place often. Besides, trapping the rabbit was a spur-of-the-moment idea. It shouldn't be a deliberate design."
Yes, she was too nervous. If it was a deliberate plan, there should have been some physical contact. But since the other party was so alert, it seemed that was not the case.
After all, Yan Shitu came from Prince An's Mansion. He has seen countless designs since he was a child, and he should have his own judgment.
Yan Shiyue relaxed: "What about the second time?"
Chu Ningyuan said, "The second time, she was with me. We were off duty and came to your side. When we passed by outside, the girl suddenly came out and stopped Yan Shitu to talk to him. I heard from a distance that she seemed to warn him not to tell anyone about what happened that day, and she even showed a knife. Ah Tu should think that such a girl is more straightforward and cute... right?"
Yan Shiyue asked: "Who is it then?"
Chu Ningyuan didn't know who it was, but he remembered the place, so he went out to ask around, and then came back and said, "She's the granddaughter of the Marquis Zhongping family."
Yan Shiyue had never heard of this title, so she asked Linlang.
This Marquis Zhongping...his ancestor was Princess Huining. The late emperor should have called her cousin, just like the current Emperor Mingyan and Yan Chengyuan, they were very close relatives.
Marquis Zhongping is her son. But Marquis Zhongping is old and no longer in Chang'an. Now it is his son, the Minister of Works Wu Gang, who is considered the most important person in the family. This girl is called Wu Fangzi, and she is said to be a beauty.
If it's not a design decision and Yan Shitu likes it, then it doesn't seem impossible?
I don’t know why, but I always feel something is wrong.
This time when she came back, Huo Qijing didn't stay in the garrison often. He had now established a firm foothold in the Yulin Army and didn't need to be watched as closely as before.
The two played with the child for a while, and then sent him to feed. Yan Shiyue sat lazily on the recliner. Seeing Huo Qijing carving a small wooden sword, she smiled and said to him, "Carve an ear spoon."
Huo Qijing carved out one in just a few strokes. Yan Shiyue jumped onto his chair, rubbed the edges carefully, asked someone to bring a small ball of cotton, and then grabbed his ear and started to dig it out for him.
When she was at home, she loved to clean people's ears, cut nails, squeeze pimples, etc. I don't know what this bad habit is. My mother always said that she was like a cat, always sticking to people.
Huo Qijing obviously liked this kind of intimate little gesture. With a slight smile on his face, he sat upright and waited.
Everyone in Changle Palace is their own family, so they are not afraid of being seen. Yan Shiyue put one leg on his leg and carefully searched while chatting with him. Last night they were busy celebrating the reunion, so today they had time to talk about things.
Huo Qijing listened quietly.
There was no expression on his face, but just by looking at the movement of his eyelashes, you could tell whether he took the matter seriously or not.
Yan Shiyue started to act naughty and blew air into his ear.
After blowing twice, Huo Qijing glanced at her. That lazy and unhurried look said, "Just jump around and see how I deal with you tonight!"
Being so close to him, Yan Shiyue felt so moved that her legs went limp and she laid on his shoulder.
The young couple was just being affectionate when Yan Shitu came in and saw them at first sight.
Yan Shiyue was so thick-skinned that he felt a little embarrassed, so he called him without hesitation: "Brother, come here, I'll help you clean your ears."
Yan Shitu quickly said, "No, no!" and ran into the room.
This is not right! Yan Shiyue frowned.
Huo Qijing said: "There is a blood mark on his neck."
What? Yan Shiyue's eyes widened.
She hesitated for a moment, then went over and quietly pushed the window open a little, and saw Yan Shitu facing the mirror, wiping the bloodstain on his neck with his hat. He hissed and muttered to himself, "She's so fierce, she's definitely not going to get married. I just took pity on her and reluctantly married her..."
The bloodstain was not long, only about two inches, and there was not much blood.
But after hearing these words, this silly brother was trapped!
Unfortunately, Yan Shirui was busy with the selection and was not in the palace, so there was no one to discuss with. Yan Shiyue thought about it and suddenly remembered someone.
Mrs. Sun Ci Fu, Sun Wu Niang's grandmother, happened to come this time when she heard about it.
She doesn't know about these things happening in the backyard, but this person must know, right?
Yan Shiyue went there.
