Chapter 56 Thoughts
"Sir, someone is coming." said the madam outside the door.
Xie Tingzhou raised his eyebrows. The waiters came into the room one by one, about six or seven of them, and stood in a row in the hall.
The madam knew that the gentleman was picky, but she was not sure of his thoughts and preferences, so she had to pick all kinds of types.
Some are tall and strong, some are weak and scholarly...
Xie Tingzhou's gaze stayed on one person for two breaths. The young man was not tall, with a delicate and fair complexion and a small face.
The madam was sensible and pushed the young man, "The master is looking at you, why don't you go quickly."
The waiter stepped forward slowly, "Sir."
Xie Tingzhou looked at him, sizing him up and down.
When the madam saw that the matter was done, she smiled and said, "He is still a prostitute, please enjoy him, young master."
The madam took the rest of the people away, leaving only Xie Tingzhou and the waiter in the room.
The young waiter has been trained, and although he is still a virgin, he knows how to serve people.
He knelt on the ground and put his hand on Xie Tingzhou's calf.
Xie Tingzhou frowned and felt a strong feeling of nausea in his throat.
The young man's hand slowly moved upwards, and just as it slid over his knee, he felt a sudden pain in his chest and was kicked to the ground by Xie Tingzhou.
The young man covered his chest and looked at him in horror, not knowing where he had gone wrong, "Sir."
Xie Tingzhou waved his hand.
He got the answer, but his heart sank.
The young waiter rolled and crawled to his feet, and just as he opened the door, the person who was eavesdropping outside the door almost fell in.
Li Jifeng heard from the brothel owner that Xie Tingzhou had come to Zuiyun Tower and had called a waiter with him.
How could he miss this scene, so he went upstairs directly.
Unexpectedly, before he could hear anything, the young waiter was kicked out again.
"What are you doing here?" Xie Tingzhou asked.
"Of course I'm concerned about you," Li Jifeng dragged his chair closer and said, "I'm afraid you'll get stuck in a rut. The man in your cell is very special to you, right?"
Li Jifeng smiled, waved his folding fan and walked to sit opposite Xie Tingzhou. "I'm curious too. After all your selection, what do you like?"
Xie Tingzhou's thoughts were in a mess.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Li Jifeng said, "Everyone in this world is either male or female, but you don't like them. You just like to hang out with those beasts all day long."
Xie Tingzhou's eyes were cold, and when he saw him, Li Jifeng quickly changed his words.
"Don't get me wrong, don't get me wrong. I mean Cang and Baiyu. One is flying in the sky and the other is running on the ground. They both don't like me."
Xie Tingzhou didn't respond.
Li Jifeng leaned back in his chair and said to himself, "Look at me.
Prince, apart from his literary talent, he knows nothing else."
Xie Tingzhou laughed at his boasting, "You must be good at enjoying yourself."
Li Jifeng pretended not to hear, "Isn't the purpose of life to be happy? You, Xie Tingzhou, are the prince of Beilin, which makes you more noble than me, an unpopular prince, but are you living a happy life?"
Xie Tingzhou stared at the windowsill silently.
For the first time in his life, he asked himself: Are you happy? He hadn't been happy for a long time.
He has seen conspiracies, life and death, generals died on the battlefield, and disaster victims went hungry.
This is not enough, now I am trapped in this imperial city like a walking corpse.
But he doesn't care about any of this.
He was just doing things based on instinct. Neither war nor political intrigue was what he wanted. He was just afraid that if he didn't do it, he would slowly molder and rot in the darkness.
He needs to stand in the sun.
Li Jifeng seemed to have thought of it, and his originally dissolute expression disappeared. "Actually, I am not happy either. I also want to stabilize the country, but look at me. I know those people say behind my back that I am a piece of mud that can't be helped, but they are right. I am just mud and can't do anything."
Li Jifeng lowered his voice, "Tingzhou, do you think I want to enjoy myself and hang out in brothels all day long? But if I wasn't a piece of rotten mud, all my brothers would want to kill me."
Only by not posing a threat can you save your life.
They are all people who are in high positions but have no control over their own affairs. No one is any better off.
"So," Li Jifeng poured him a cup of tea, "enjoy life while you can."
Xie Tingzhou understood that one should enjoy life while he could, but he could not accept himself as he was now.
The atmosphere was too depressing, which was what Li Jifeng couldn't stand the most.
After a cup of tea, he was still the dissolute Ninth Prince, "The book says it well, if love lasts forever, it doesn't matter if they are father-in-law or mother-in-law."
Xie Tingzhou gritted his teeth and looked up, "Have you become stupid from studying so much?"
Li Jifeng looked sincere, "You don't have to feel bad, I've seen that person, don't worry, you must be the one on top."
It's not relevant to bring up this matter. Xie Tingzhou looked at him, stood up and left.
Li Jifeng quickly dropped the cup and ran out of the door, "I tell you, he is a man, so what... Help——"
Seeing Xie Tingzhou pull out the knife that had always been on his waist, Li Jifeng ran away.
…
Chen Yu had been beaten and injured before, but she never expected being whipped would be so painful.
The whole back is burning, only
The fabric of the bra binder was thicker, which blocked the pain for her a little and saved her some pain.
Not daring to call a doctor, Shen Yu could only apply the medicine herself. As her back was inconvenient, she sprinkled some medicine in front of the mirror.
It all depends on which wound you are luckier with and which one should get more medicine.
Chen Yu grimaced in pain, and no matter how many times she greeted Xie Tingzhou's ancestors, she could not ease the hatred in her heart.
She fell asleep in pain, and when she woke up, her mouth was dry and she had no strength. "Is there anyone there?"
She opened her mouth to shout, only to find that her throat was very hoarse.
There was no response from outside the door. She forced herself to get out of bed, took a few sips of cold tea from the pot, and then lay back on the bed.
Xie Tingzhou didn't leave after all and stayed overnight at Zuiyun Tower.
Xifeng climbed up the stairs three steps at a time, saw Changliu standing at the door, and asked, "Where is His Highness?"
Changliu raised his chin and said, "In the house."
When Xifeng passed by, he stopped him and whispered, "Your Highness is in a bad mood today."
Xifeng nodded, entered the room and stood aside without saying a word.
Xie Tingzhou leaned on the couch and turned the pages of the book. "What are you doing?"
Xifeng's expression was serious. "I'm here to report to Your Highness that Shiyu's whip has been received."
"Just take it. You don't need to report this to me." Xie Tingzhou said calmly.
Xifeng paid attention to Xie Tingzhou's expression, but didn't see any changes, except that the book in his hand didn't turn the page for a long time.
After a while, Xifeng bravely asked, "I stopped him from taking turns for three days, and then..."
Xi Feng stopped talking because he saw Xie Tingzhou looking at him.
Xie Tingzhou said indifferently: "Do all of you think that I treat him differently?"
The answer is yes, but Xifeng didn't dare to answer.
Xie Tingzhou already knew the answer from his silence.
It turned out that he had been out of control for a long time. Everyone could see it, except him, who was confused by it.
Xie Tingzhou lowered his eyes and continued to read the book, saying calmly: "He doesn't need to take turns anymore, don't let him appear in front of me again."
Xi Feng looked up in shock, then quickly lowered his head, "What should we do after the Yanliang Pass case is over?"
"Let him go, whether he wants to leave or stay. If he wants to stay, find him a job in the capital."
Xie Tingzhou didn't even raise his head. Xifeng had been out for a long time before he turned his head and looked out the window. "Bring me a pot of wine."
I don’t know where love arises, nor do I know where it will end.
Maybe if I can't see anyone, the thought of him will stop.
He will get used to it eventually, simply because he has long been accustomed to giving up.
