The quilt slid across his skin, and it felt smooth to the touch. Wei Xicheng huddled in the quilt with his eyes open, looking at the unreal dark patterns on the quilt, but listening carefully to the movements outside.
It was very quiet, so quiet that it seemed as if there was no one else present.
After a while, Wei Xicheng suddenly opened the quilt and met a pair of deep eyes. His movements stopped for a moment, and he instantly regretted why he couldn't be more patient.
Yan Bei's hand was on the quilt just now, and judging from his movements, he should have wanted to help him pull the quilt away. However, Wei Xicheng's sudden movement knocked his hand down, and looking along his arm, the hand was now buried in the quilt.
Wei Xicheng looked at the invisible hand without saying a word. Yan Bei curled his lips, took his hand out of the quilt, put it under Wei Xicheng's eyes, and said lightly: "Will it be comfortable to cover your head in the quilt?"
"Little Taozi! Someone has trespassed into my bedroom..." Before Wei Xicheng could finish his words, Yan Bei covered his mouth with his hand.
"What are you doing!" Wei Xicheng pulled the culprit from his mouth, stared at Yan Bei's face fiercely, but his voice was unconsciously lowered.
Yan Bei naturally noticed this small detail, and the smile in his eyes deepened.
"Your Majesty?" Xiao Taozi's voice asked from outside the door.
Wei Xicheng looked at Yan Bei's lip shape and saw "Let him go."
"I'm fine, I'll call you later." Wei Xicheng didn't want to give in to Yan Bei's wishes so easily, and rolled his eyes at Yan Bei, "What are you doing here? Aren't you afraid that I'll chop off your head if you break into the palace?"
As soon as these words came out, Wei Xicheng knew that something was wrong. He, the emperor, was not as majestic as the "minister" in front of him. When he looked up, he saw that the "general" had a playful smile in his eyes.
"Yan Bei! Do you really think I'm afraid of you?!"
"Of course I'm not afraid." Yan Bei pulled the corner of the quilt out from under Wei Xicheng, "Our emperor is not afraid of anyone, right?"
"Of course... What did you hear?" Wei Xicheng already knew that the person outside the Queen Mother's bedroom was most likely Yan Bei's man, but he didn't expect that it was Yan Bei himself.
"I've heard everything I should have heard." The originally lighthearted conversation became a little heavy with these words, "There are some things you can't escape from."
Wei Xicheng pushed away Yan Bei's hand that was about to hug him, raised his eyebrows, and spoke with increasing aggression, "Really? You can't avoid the election either."
"I'll think of a way..."
"General Yan, what do you think of me?" Wei Xicheng opened the quilt and stood on the ground looking at Yan Bei who was sitting on the bed. He was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, which was very bright and noble. "Although I have no real power, I am the emperor of this world. I am not opportunistic or fawning on you, general. I do what I like and have never wronged myself. Please go back, general."
"I didn't say you were after the tiger talisman." Yan Bei stood in front of Wei Xicheng, "You and I are not after the imperial power or status."
"Then tell me why." Wei Xicheng lowered his head. He was almost a head shorter than Yan Bei. When he lowered his head, he looked even younger and a little aggrieved.
Yan Bei was stunned and held the person in his arms.
"Don't you know why I do this?" He sighed softly, "Of course, it's because I like you."
Wei Xicheng looked at the dark cloth on the man's chest, put his face against it, and listened to Yan Bei's heartbeat. Each beat was like hitting his own heart.
He didn't want to become so pretentious. It was not manly at all to keep complaining.
"good."
Yan Bei heard the little emperor in his arms respond.
He held the person's shoulders and squatted down to look at her. "Do you really not want to be the emperor? I saw you staying up late to read memorials a while ago, and sometimes you even dreamed of attending the morning court. You said you don't want to do it anymore, but you will still carefully write down the Prime Minister's opinions and make sure you do better next time."
"Perhaps before, you thought you were not suitable for the throne, but now you find that you are making rapid progress."
Yan Bei's words did not sound like what a minister would say to the emperor. In other words, the relationship between Wei Xicheng and Yan Bei was never that of a monarch and his subjects. Wei Xicheng could not do anything to Yan Bei, and Yan Bei would not hurt Wei Xicheng. The two of them cleverly reached a relatively equal status in a world with clear class divisions.
"I will support you in every decision you make, but I hope to follow your inner choice. No matter when, where, or what your status, you will always be my emperor."
After saying that, Yan Bei wanted to kneel on one knee to show his loyalty, but he paused and then gently hugged Wei Xicheng.
"My emperor may talk to me, his most loyal subject, about what he is thinking. No matter what it is."
The bedroom was very quiet and the windows were not closed tightly. From time to time, the sound of palace maids cleaning deliberately in a low voice could be heard from outside, and from time to time, Xiao Taozi's arrangements and instructions could be heard.
The wind that came in was very light. Before I could feel it, it disappeared, leaving only the veil by the window swaying and quickly falling down.
Wei Xicheng looked at the person in front of him, as if time had stopped.
This is the difference between him and Yan Bei.
No matter how many worlds he travels through, Yan Bei will always be the Yan Bei of this world, and will never be the Yu Beiyan of the previous world or the Yu Beiyan of the next world.
He treats himself in a modern way, but he is still a great general in a parallel ancient world. He is Yan Bei, even if Yu Bei Yan is sleeping deep in his soul.
In this world, Wei Xicheng did not initially think about changing anything with his own abilities. He just wanted to quickly collect energy, upgrade the system, awaken Yu Beiyan's memory, and return to the real world.
Yan Bei's words reminded him of his original intention of traveling freely through the world.
Gain insights into the personalities and experiences of various characters and hone your acting skills.
When did his mood begin to change, and when did he give up his hobbies and dreams.
Wei Xicheng shook his head and looked at Yan Bei in front of him.
"Good." The two people have different understandings of the word "good".
----
The Queen Mother and the court officials were very pleased that the Emperor had begun to make progress, which was a good thing for the benefit of the people of the world. Other forces did not come out to make a move at this time, and even several princes who had the power to compete secretly returned to their fiefdoms.
Yan Bei, who was mediating the conflict, was a royalist, and this was an unspoken secret among everyone.
In everyone's eyes, Yan Bei, after taking off his identity as a general, was able to thrive in the court. His several decisions were ingenious, which attracted many old officials to praise him.
The emperor and Yan Bei's friendship grew better and better. They often talked until late at night and then fell asleep together.
Everyone said that the rapid progress of the little emperor was inseparable from the contribution of General Yan Bei.
However, only Yan Bei knew that he had never helped the little emperor since he said those words of encouragement to the emperor. His current progress was all the result of his own efforts.
The way they get along becomes more and more natural, just like in the previous worlds, the longer they are together, the deeper their understanding becomes.
Wei Xicheng still did not become a wise ruler. The young emperor had never received any education on how to govern a country since he was a child. He had no awareness and had to rely on cramming. For him to become an emperor who defended the country without any merits or faults was already the best outcome.
He changed from a young and frivolous emperor to a mature and steady middle-aged emperor, and the people who accompanied him also changed from young and promising undefeated generals to trusted ministers who were able to plan the country's strategies.
The young emperor was protected by a general who had the final say. He gradually disintegrated the camp of the empress dowager and the emperor's uncle, and finally made the world his own.
The two never married, and stayed together all their lives, which was already a legend. People in the market rarely discussed it because of the emperor's majesty, but it was inevitable that it left a heavy mark in the history books, leaving it for future generations to speculate.
After more than several decades of companionship, Wei Xicheng finally accumulated enough energy to continue his journey.
Before leaving, Yan Bei held his hand, with no traces of tears on his face, as if this was just a trivial separation.
Wei Xicheng had a smile on his face. At the beginning of this world, he was eager to awaken Yan Bei's memory, but in the end, the energy he gained in this world was very little.
But it’s also good that he put this feeling back in its right place.
After traveling through so many worlds, he longed for someone's company. After he met Yu Beiyan, he actually shifted all his focus to another person, which was a very dangerous behavior.
But he is lucky enough that the lover in every world can find him quickly and hold him in the palm of his hand even if he has no memory.
Wei Xicheng was originally unsure of his lover's feelings.
Now he knows that he used to attach too much importance to feelings, and let the focus of life fall on love, which makes people become unlike themselves. After he saw the truth, he found the original joy of life and felt much more relaxed.
When interacting with Yan Bei, I can also see many details that were previously overlooked.
After the initial passionate feelings, it is inevitable to return to the ordinary and precious reality. It is these ordinary little things in daily life that can show Yan Bei's tolerance and respect for him. Every two people have their own way of getting along, and in this, everyone has their own way of expressing love.
Looking back, Wei Xicheng was glad that he was not a very pretentious person and did not cause any trouble to Yu Beiyan.
Now let him ask, do you love Yu Beiyan? Wei Xicheng felt that he would definitely smile and then firmly say, "I love you." And whether Yu Beiyan loved him or not, Wei Xicheng knew it without asking.
like.
Because he realized that love can be expressed in more ways than just words.
So even though he couldn't say it in the last life, Yu Beiyan didn't blame him in his heart.
Wei Xicheng closed his eyes and realized now that maybe it was not too late.
"wait for me."
The man's voice sounded in his ears and he nodded weakly, falling into darkness.
