But Qu Yunmie insisted on doing so. His reason was that the gentlemen might need him to make decisions on some matters, and he had already said that he wanted to be a good King of Zhenbei, so as the King of Zhenbei, he naturally had to live in his own palace.
Gao Xunzhi: “…”
I'll just watch you edit quietly.
Gao Xunzhi's confusion and headache at the beginning gradually evolved into anger and disappointment. Now he has reached the stage of indifference. No matter how he looks at Qu Yunmie, he finds him unpleasant. He doesn't want to talk to him or see him. ...
When Qu Yunmie entered the house, the first thing he did was to change his dirty clothes, and then take a nice cold shower. He was born with a hot body, and after stretching his muscles and bones, he could even create the special effect of flying in the clouds. Especially in winter, he could see wisps of hot air coming out of his chest.
After taking a shower, he would let his hair get wet without wiping it, because it would slowly dry out with his own body temperature. …
There was still some time before going to bed, so Qu Yunmie picked up the military newspaper that Wang Xinyong had delivered today. This time it was a real military newspaper, so Wang Xinyong didn't dare to say a word of nonsense.
But Qu Yunmie did not open it immediately. He first raised his head and looked in one direction.
That was the direction where Gao Xunzhi lived, and also the direction where the three members of the Xiao family lived. The collection of essays was about to be opened, Qu Yunmie was very busy, and Xiao Rong was even busier. It seemed that the two of them had not seen each other for twenty-four hours.
But this is different from when Xiao Rong was in Jinling. At that time, he was worried about Xiao Rong and was afraid that something might happen to him in Jinling, but now Xiao Rong is in his Chenliu, and he will not be in any danger.
But he still thought about him.
Qu Yunmie could not help but frown. Although he admired Xiao Rong and agreed with his ideas, did he really need to be so clingy? Yu Shaocheng was quite clingy to his brother. Could it be that...he also regarded Xiao Rong as his brother or younger brother? How strange.
Qu Yunmie was reflecting on himself. A good king should not be so dependent on his subordinates. He should provide protection and support to Xiao Rong instead of always thinking that it would be great if Xiao Rong could turn into Xueyinchoumao, so that he could put him wherever he wanted.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Qu Yunmie was shocked, thinking that he had accidentally expressed his thoughts, and Xiao Rong came to settle the score with him.
Nowadays, when everyone has learned how to knock on the door... Qu Yunmie can still recognize Xiao Rong's knocking sound at once. Even though the habit of knocking on the door was brought by Xiao Rong, almost everyone in the palace imitates him to knock.
He adjusted his sitting posture and made himself look calmer. When he saw the wet hair hanging in front of him out of the corner of his eye, a look of annoyance flashed across Qu Yunmie's face.
But he still said to the outside: "Come in."
Xiao Rong pushed the door open with his elbow. He was holding two jars of wine in his hands. He was stunned when he saw that Qu Yunmie had taken off her hair crown.
Nowadays, men only have one hairstyle, which is to wear a crown. The nobles wear more expensive ones, while the common people use cloth strips instead, or wear a sewn hat.
Since coming of age became an indispensable rite of passage in the lives of men in the Central Plains, the hairstyle of letting hair down has basically disappeared. Films and TV series like to arrange the hairstyle of letting hair down for male actors, not because it is in line with historical facts, but because this hairstyle looks good. Hmm... looks good.
Xiao Rong looked at Qu Yunmie silently. In his heart, he not only gave Qu Yunmie the nickname "Big Fool", but sometimes he also called him "195" in his heart. Although he thought he was mocking Qu Yunmie for only growing in height but not in brains, he was actually jealous of Qu Yunmie for being so tall.
Hate it, so what if you grow into a telephone pole? There are no light bulbs for you to hang on in this era. …
Without his armor, Qu Yunmie was not as cold and hard as usual. The long hair that fell to his waist was wet and stuck into clumps, making it more three-dimensional, firm, but also more messy. The water droplets on his hair soaked Qu Yunmie's robe. The gray color of grass turned black when it came into contact with water, making Qu Yunmie look even thinner and taller.
Xiao Rong had seen his figure before, and he was not thin at all. He felt that if Qu Yunmie did a sit-up, he could randomly kill someone.
This is the legendary appearance of looking thin when dressed and having muscular body when undressed. It's such a pity to be born in this era. If Qu Yunmie could go to the modern era, he would definitely be a world-class male supermodel.
Xiao Rong looked at Qu Yunmie without saying anything, and Qu Yunmie stood up to greet him, but found that he had been staring at him, as if he didn't notice that he was coming over. He was stunned for a moment, then looked down at himself.
When Xiao Rong saw his action, his eyelids jumped. He took two steps forward, then arched his butt backwards and closed the door easily.
Qu Yunmie saw his action: "..."
He had just grasped some idea, but now it has been taken away by Xiao Rong.
Xiao Rong walked towards the table and said, "This is the wine I brewed when I first arrived in Chenliu. I originally wanted to sell it once it was brewed successfully. Anyway, now that we are not short of money, I plan to make this recipe public soon so that the people can learn how to brew wine. Who knows, in a year or two, there may be many different wines on the market."
After he finished speaking, Qu Yunmie had already walked behind him. Xiao Rong didn't know. He suddenly turned around, and because Qu Yunmie stood too close to him, his head hit Qu Yunmie's cheekbone. Xiao Rong's forehead hurt so much that he covered it to ease the pain, then raised his head speechlessly: "The king is really...hard-skinned in every sense of the word!"
Qu Yunmie didn't say anything. He didn't feel any pain. He only smelled the bitter leaf scent on Xiao Rong's body.
Xiao Rong also came here after taking a bath. Normally, there was no smell on his body, but after taking a bath, he would have some pleasant herbal scent on his body. Now it smells a bit bitter, but once you get used to it, you will find it addictive and very fragrant.
He did not hear what Xiao Rong said, and after Xiao Rong finished complaining, he did not say anything else. He found a stool to sit down, and then patted the stool next to him. He poured a glass of wine he brewed for Qu Yunmie and said to him: "Your Majesty, try it."
Qu Yunmie sat down as he was told, and stared at the clear wine: "Are you sure it's okay to drink it?"
Xiao Rong: "Don't worry, my king. I asked Zhang Biezhi to drink it an hour ago, and he is still alive and well."
Qu Yunmie: “…………”
I tried taking a sip and it indeed tasted like wine, but not as strong as the one brewed by the general. It was more like the sake that princes and nobles liked.
But it's stronger than sake. Qu Yunmie always felt that sake was no different from water. This one at least allows him to taste the aroma of the wine and won't get drunk quickly. It seems like it's worth a few drinks of this stuff.
Qu Yunmie smiled and said, "It tastes good."
Then he drank the whole cup, took the wine jar beside him, poured himself another cup, and took another cup to pour for Xiao Rong, but Xiao Rong stopped him: "No need, Your Majesty, you forgot that I am not good at drinking."
Qu Yunmie thought back to the day when he and Xiao Rong first met. Who would have thought that the drunkard who made him want to kill him back then would now be one of the most important people around him.
