Chapter 34 A sweet and soft little egg was sleeping next to the little cake...
"Your Majesty, you cannot play with fire."
When Su Mian heard Cheng Changgeng's words, he stopped pulling at his clothes and tilted his head to look at Cheng Changgeng.
"Why?"
"Playing with fire and wetting the bed."
Su Mian raised her finger, smiling, her eyes were watery and shining, and her cheeks were pink from being drunk, looking cute and pitiful.
"You are so old, you have no shame."
Cheng Changgeng couldn't help but stretched out his hand to scratch Su Mian's nose bridge, and finally his fingertips stopped to pinch his cheek, which felt good.
He remembered that a month ago, Su Mian was still skinny, but now his face looked chubby and felt good to touch.
"Your Majesty, go to bed. I'm sleepy."
Su Mian squinted his eyes and yawned. He was very drunk and had woken up early in the morning. His eyelids were fighting and he could hardly open his eyes. He stood in place, supporting Cheng Changgeng and swaying from side to side, and seemed to be about to fall down.
"Then go to sleep."
Cheng Changgeng forced himself to calm down and did not do anything out of line to Su Mian. He just helped him to the bed, coaxed him to sit down, took off his shoes, and let him lie down.
The two of them just lay side by side quietly like this, but it only lasted for a short while.
Soon, Su Mian turned sideways and put her legs dishonestly on Cheng Changgeng's waist.
This was undoubtedly a huge torture for Cheng Changgeng.
It was hot in the summer, and the ice in the bedroom melted quickly. Cheng Changgeng was hugged tightly by Su Mian, and his body felt hot from the inside out.
He panted heavily, forcing himself to recite the heart-clearing mantra silently, ignoring the sweet, soft and delicious "little cake" sleeping next to him.
Perhaps because of a nightmare, Su Mian did not sleep well. Cheng Changgeng patted his back gently to coax him to sleep.
He fell asleep in a daze.
When he woke up again, it was already dusk. Cheng Changgeng was awakened by Su Mian's noisy mumbling, but he did not open his eyes immediately.
[That’s it! Why is the Dog Emperor in my room? ! ]
[No, no, no, this is not my room, this is the dog emperor’s bedroom. ]
Scratching his head, Su Mian carefully removed Cheng Changgeng's arm from his waist, sat up, covered his head and tried to recall what had happened.
[I'm dressed neatly, so I shouldn't have lost my butt a second time, right? ]
After a careful inspection, Su Mian breathed a sigh of relief, but soon he thought again:
[Could it be that I walked into the wrong room? ]
Thinking of this, Su Mian tiptoed towards the door, silently praying that Cheng Changgeng would not wake up at this time.
But Cheng Changgeng would not do as he wished. When his hand was about to touch the door frame, he coughed lightly, pretending to have just woken up, and asked in a hoarse voice:
"Su Mian, why are you here?"
[That’s it! ! ! ! ]
Before Su Mian opened his mouth to speak, he had already knelt down steadily. He knelt on the ground with a fake smile and turned around, thinking in his heart:
[From what the Dog Emperor said, I should have come in after he fell asleep. He should not know what happened just now. Fortunately, it is still possible to make amends. ]
So he calmed himself down and started talking:
"Your Majesty, it's already very late. I wanted to come in and wake you up, but I saw that you were sleeping soundly, so I didn't have the heart to wake you up."
Su Mian was right about this. It had been so long since Cheng Changgeng came here, but this was the first time he had such a long nap, and he slept very soundly.
"Oh, is dinner ready?"
"This... naturally, it will be well soon."
Su Mian could only bet that Xiao Dezi was reliable and that dinner should have been prepared by now, but he was somewhat unsure.
"Okay, go down."
[yes! ]
Su Mian silently clenched his fists in his heart. Fortunately, the Dog Emperor did not delve into it further.
When Su Mian came out of the house, he turned around and saw Xiao Dezi guarding the door.
When Xiao Dezi saw him coming out, he immediately asked, "Eunuch Su, why did you stay in there for so long? Did the emperor punish you?"
Xiao Dezi remembered that Su Mian was a little drunk when he went in, and was afraid that he would anger the emperor, so he kept guarding the door, but he didn't hear any movement.
"No, Your Majesty...Your Majesty was annoyed by the hot summer weather and ordered me to serve by his side and fan him to cool him down."
"oh……"
This reason is reasonable and in line with Cheng Changgeng's tyrannical behavior. Xiao Dezi pulled Su Mian away and whispered, "The emperor really doesn't know how to sympathize with the eunuch. Are you tired, are you okay?"
"Haha, it's okay. I'm fine."
Su Mian felt a surge of guilt in his heart, and this blame had to be borne by the dog emperor.
"By the way, is dinner ready?"
Su Mian then remembered the important matter.
"Everything is ready. We are just waiting for the emperor to wake up and serve the meal anytime."
"Go and get ready, the emperor is awake."
Su Mian breathed a sigh of relief. This little Dezi could still be useful at the critical moment. He was also very hungry. He would eat something to fill his stomach. His head would feel a little dizzy, so he had to go back and rest early.
"Oops, I almost forgot."
He suddenly slapped his forehead. Drinking really messed things up. He had promised Qin Caizi to move the palace, so he had to find a way to mention it.
Fortunately, he doesn't have to worry about going to the Han Palace. It doesn't matter who the dog emperor takes with him. He will definitely have a good vacation.
[You can’t drink this wine carelessly anymore. ]
Su Mian patted his chest with lingering fear and went downstairs to get busy.
That night, after serving dinner, Su Mian still couldn't find a suitable opportunity, so he could only give up for the time being. This matter could not be rushed, as he was afraid that the dog emperor would become suspicious, which would harm Qin Caizi.
The next day, the list of people going to the Han Palace was finalized.
Originally, everyone in the harem thought that Qin Caizi would definitely be on the list, but unexpectedly, in addition to a few concubines with children, only Shen Ceqing and Jiang Ceqing were ordered to follow.
However, this list was also beyond Su Mian's expectations.
Originally, Rong Ceqing and Qin Caizi didn't want to go, and Lin Caizi and Wei Jiaren were both under house arrest, so there were only a few people who could be brought out to serve.
On the first day before leaving, Su Mian felt that the matter of Qin Caizi changing his bedroom should not be delayed any longer. Since he was not in the palace, the two of them could take care of each other.
So he asked Qin Caizi to perform a play with him.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, there was news from Xiufu Palace just now, saying that Mr. Qin suddenly fell ill."
Su Mian rushed into Mingzheng Hall in a panic. Cheng Changgeng didn't even glance at him and said calmly, "If you are sick, go find the imperial physician. Why are you so panicked?"
"It's my fault. I heard that Mr. Qin has nightmares every night, and black cats often appear in the palace. I'm afraid he is not suitable to live in Xiufu Palace anymore."
"There is such a thing?"
Cheng Changgeng put down the brush in his hand, raised his head from the desk, looked at Su Mian and said, "In that case, let him move out."
[Why? So smooth? ]
Cheng Changgeng agreed so readily that Su Mian felt a little unconfident. He even thought of various excuses to prevaricate. How could the dog emperor agree so quickly?
But just agree to it. The dog emperor will definitely not care where Qin Caizi moves to. He can just give the order directly.
In fact, Su Mian had been serving in the imperial court these days, and he had been muttering about this matter in his mind. Cheng Changgeng's ears were almost callused from hearing it. Now that he heard him bring it up, he naturally agreed quickly. He just hoped that he would stop repeating this in his ears.
[Oh, when Qin Caizi moves over, they will be very affectionate with each other. Who knows, when I come back from Han Palace, they may even have known each other’s feelings. ]
[Qin Caizi is devoted to Rong Ceqing, and they are truly a perfect match. If they can have a companion in the harem, it would be better than pinning all their hopes on the dog emperor. ]
[It is so exciting to have a forbidden love in this harem. If I have the chance, I can try it. ]
[That’s great. The love between two men is really wonderful.] ]
Su Mian was in a daze, with all kinds of pink bubbles popping up in her head. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Qin Caizi and Rong Ceqing were a good match.
Little did he know that many of his thoughts had subtly changed from when he first arrived.
At least, Su Mian, who had just traveled through time, would definitely not support the love between two men.
But now, he just wants to charge into battle and be a love bodyguard!
Cheng Changgeng, who was listening to all this silently, almost made a mistake in his comments on the memorial.
Did he really hear it right? Qin Caizi and Rong Ceqing?
Apart from being shocked, Cheng Changgeng did not have any other feelings. He even wished that the harem was like this, so that no one would keep an eye on his favors for the harem.
Ever since the truth came out about Lin Caizi's poisoning, he has not summoned anyone else. Not only has the emperor reminded him subtly, but even some ministers of the previous dynasty have been secretly inquiring about it.
He just made the excuse that he was too busy and didn't have time, but if he continued like this, he would be exposed sooner or later. He couldn't change too much at once.
It's really a troublesome thing.
Fortunately, Su Mian suggested going to Han Palace, which would allow him to hide away for some peace and quiet. There were few spies in Han Palace, so he could just make up an excuse to get away with it.
That afternoon, Su Mian brought the good news to Qin Caizi, and they arranged to help move over.
The side hall of Chenghua Palace was still empty. When Rong Ceqing heard that Qin Caizi was going to move there, he immediately cleaned it up himself and made the bed.
"This is great. I can eat your cooking anytime, and it saves you from running back and forth every day. It's so tiring in such hot weather."
Qin Caizi often sent food to Rong Ceqing. Even though Rong Ceqing had told him many times not to do so, he could not persuade Qin Caizi and continued to do so.
Now that we two live so close to each other, there is a lot less trouble.
Looking at the two of them talking and laughing, Su Mian couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips. He thought, if everyone here was so pure and lived happily, it would be a beautiful thing.
Not staying for too long, after saying goodbye to Qin Caizi and Rong Ceqing, Su Mian went back to her room to pack her luggage for the Han Palace.
He casually stuffed in a few sets of clothes, took out his treasure box, picked and chose, and finally only grabbed a handful of gold beans, not willing to take the big items.
He was somewhat of a miser, but he was also worried that the things he brought to the Han Palace might be stolen, which would be a waste of time.
However, carrying some gold with you will always come in handy.
He did the right thing. He didn't expect that after going to the Han Palace, he would encounter more things, which were far less comfortable than living in the palace...
