Beyond Gold and Jade [Rebirth]

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the green leaves in the pool are dyed with a faint halo.The boy was lying on his back on the boat, his delicate face was fair and snowy, and the corners of his lips were slightly curved, which made people feel that the years were quiet and good, and they couldn't bear to break the tranquility at this moment.

It's a pity that Gu Chen didn't have such a leisurely mood. He hadn't seen the child for several days, he thought about it, and got closer, and said with concern: "You can take the medicine on time."

Ye Chongjin sat up, leaned listlessly on the side of the boat, looked at a water lily among the lotus leaves, and muttered: "I ate it, and my mother watched me take it every day before giving up. I was supposed to drink the bitter medicine. It’s a shame, now I add another medicine, but fortunately the taste of the medicine is not bad, otherwise I would have to ask you to argue.”

Gu Chen leaned his lips and smiled: "The medicine is full of rare things, and it is hard to find a thousand gold. Naturally, the taste is not bad. Gu Zao expected that you would not take it obediently, so I asked your mother to supervise you."

The boy snorted softly, but did not refute.

Gu Chen said again: "Ah Jin will be seven years old next month, you should be more sensible, don't always treat your body badly, every time Ah Jin gets sick, I will be worried and frightened."

When he said this, Ye Chongjin was secretly looking at him from the crook of his arm, and just caught him right away, the child panicked, and nodded indiscriminately: "Ah Jin knows, I won't mess around."

Gu Chen's eyes became softer, he picked up a strand of black hair that fell on his shoulders, put it in the palm of his hand, and said, "Speaking of birthday, what gift does Ah Jin want this year?"

Ye Chongjin said: "It's the same as in previous years, so don't worry about it."

Just as he was talking, Ye Chonghui had asked someone to row another wooden boat to approach him. The young man stood at the bow of the boat with a cold face, dressed in white clothes with golden brilliance, behind him was a green leaf pink lotus, and he was standing alone, elegant and refined. .

Ye Chongjin said: "My brother is really good-looking, like a banished fairy in the Heavenly Palace, isn't he?"

Gu Chen agreed, but he thought, no matter how good-looking he is, he is his real brother after all.

When the wooden boat approached, Ye Chongjin got up and jumped onto his brother's boat. Gu Chen tried to stop him, but the boy nimbly avoided his hand, turned his head and smiled slyly, and said, "Your Highness, the boat is actually stuck in the lotus leaf. We are in the jungle, please row the boat to the shore for Ah Jin."

Naturally, he couldn't respond to Ah Jin's request, so Gu Chen could only watch the child slip away, and his elder brother who looked like a banished fairy showed a triumphant smile when he turned around.

He sneered, and one day, he would no longer be complacent.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is proficient in all eighteen martial arts, but he has never learned how to row a boat. He fiddled with the oars for a long time before finally returning to the shore. It was already dark at this time.

Xia He has been waiting on the shore, and when he saw him, he quickly saluted and said: "I am here to wait for your highness by the order of the master. The master has something to say. Today, the Tang master's family from Jinzhou is a guest at the mansion, and the family has a reunion It will be very late, so please return to the palace earlier, Your Highness."

Gu Chen said: "If Gu is not willing."

Xia He lowered his head, showing a bitter expression, and stammered: "Master has something to say, if His Highness refuses..."

Xia He bit the bullet and said: "Master said, if His Highness refuses, there is nothing he can do. It's just that this year the West Mountain is hunting, don't drag him into the fun, he is not in good health, he is afraid that he will not be able to withstand the wind in the mountains, and he is also timid. Be afraid of the wild beasts in the mountains, so as not to be frightened.”

"..."

Gu Chen didn't know what expression to put on. Wasn't he the kid who sneaked away to touch the tiger's ass last year when no one was paying attention?Fortunately, the tiger was seriously injured and only had the strength left to flick its tail, otherwise it would have been a mess, but now it dares to say that it is a coward.

Thinking of the child's cute appearance, he couldn't help showing a smile in his eyes, and said, half false, "he is the only one who dares to speak nonsense in front of Gu." After saying that, he shook his sleeves and left.

Xia He secretly wiped off her cold sweat, looking at the back of His Royal Highness, her calves were still trembling.

When he returned to the yard, Ye Chongjin was sitting under a tree swinging, and a few girls were shaking fans for him. She hurried over and said with a mournful face, "Master, Your Highness seems to be angry."

Ye Chongjin nodded, secretly thinking that he should be angry.That man was nostalgic for Song Li in his previous life, and he wanted to be a wayward playboy in this life, which disillusioned him.

Xia He said again: "Master, next time you will leave this kind of errand to someone else. The servants are really scared of His Royal Highness, even talking to him, let alone plucking the tiger's head, just now I thought I was dead. See you, little master."

Ye Chongjin chuckled, and said, "No one else can do this job. You are the most courageous person who asks me to be in the yard."

This girl is indeed a bold one, she said directly: "Then master, you can just say no."

The child's smile froze, if he dared to speak, would there be anyone else to do it?That person is Gu Chen, the king of Yama who would kill people at every turn, sometimes it's fine for him to act coquettishly and make a fuss, but he has no guts to really provoke him.

In fact, in the past few years, he has been testing Gu Chen's bottom line. He wants to know how far Gu Chen can tolerate him, but unfortunately the results are minimal.

The old man shook his head on the ground and said, "It's not right, it's too risky."

Xia He was crying in his heart, you know the risk is high, you go back to please His Highness the Crown Prince, and then tell the slaves to die, you don't bring such deceitful people.

========

The next morning, Ye Chongjin hadn't woken up yet. The people in the room knew that he had been in the bitter summer and didn't know when he fell asleep last night, so no one dared to disturb him.

It was Ye Ruoyao and Ye Yunzhe who came to visit. They had met the old man and Ye Yanbai and his wife before, and Ye Chonghui went to the academy early, so they came directly to Funing Academy.

Earlier, Mrs. Ye Wang specially told the two of them not to mess around in front of the little cousin. The kid is weak, so he just came back after seeing the ceremony, so don't disturb him to rest.

Ye Ruoyao said: "When I saw brother Ah Jin earlier, I didn't realize that he was sick."

Ye Yunzhe also said: "He is so good-looking, who can see any shortcomings, he just thinks everything is good."

It was rare for Ye Ruoyao to agree with her younger brother's words, and said: "Then when we meet younger brother Ah Jin, you are not allowed to say anything annoying."

"When did I say something annoying?"

"Hmph, you don't talk much on weekdays? As a descendant of the Ye family, you keep saying that you want to be a high official in the court, but now that your uncle is the most powerful high official, you should go to him and say it to see if he will Laughing at you."

After all, Ye Yunzhe was young, and being teased by his sister, his face flushed with anger, and he said: "What about you, aren't you clamoring every day to marry that Zhen Xu? Appearance, if you want talent or lack of talent, you just don’t have the knowledge, and that’s why you were fooled casually.”

"You! You are not allowed to say that about Zhen Lang!"

"Your Zhen Lang has a family, and you still want to be his concubine, that's stupid."

"His wife was threatened by his mother to marry him when she was alive. He didn't like it at all. He even said that he would make me his wife."

Ye Yunzhe said: "If you have a family, you have a family. When you marry, you will be treated like a child. Even a flat wife will be judged by others. Can you bear it?"

"I...why can't I!" In front of my younger brother, even if I can't, I have to argue, and I can't lose my momentum.

Seeing Funing Courtyard, the two stopped their quarrel, but they were obviously angry.Mother An ordered someone to show them tea, and said, "Forgive me, you two, our little master has always had a bitter summer, and the heat at night is so hot that we can't sleep, so we wake up later in the morning."

Ye Ruoyao said strangely: "But last night, I didn't feel hot at all because I didn't send an ice basin."

Nanny An said: "This is because my little master can't bear the cold, and even if it's hot, he can't put those things. Miss, please don't mention the word 'ice basin' in front of him. I was talking to him about it yesterday." Madame and the old man are having trouble, so I rested my mind, and then I thought about it, it's not very good."

Ye Ruoyao nodded repeatedly, and Ye Yunzhe also looked cautious.

Nanny An smiled and stepped back.

About a quarter of an hour later, Ye Chongjin woke up leisurely. Nurse An instructed Xia He and a few maids to change his clothes, and said: "Master Yunzhe and Miss Ruoyao from Mr. Tang's house are here. They are drinking tea outside the house, my little master." Freshen up quickly, don't keep people waiting."

The child was stunned for a while, then remembered who she was talking about, nodded, and said, "Okay."

He only wore a blue thin shirt, and walked out yawning, with his smooth black hair hanging over his shoulders, like a lazy cat, Xia He followed behind him with a rosewood comb in his hand , Called: "Master, I haven't sorted it out yet."

He said: "It's okay, my cousin and sister are not outsiders."

Xia He is helpless, when will the little master get rid of his bad habit of combing his hair.

When the two people in the outer room saw him, they couldn't move their eyes away. It took a while before they came back to their senses, got up and called, "Brother Ah Jin."

"Ah Jin got up late, and kept my cousins ​​waiting for a long time. Can I have an early meal?"

Both of them shook their heads, Ye Ruoyao said: "Mother said, after seeing brother Ah Jin, I will go back to have dinner."

Ye Chongjin pursed his lips and smiled when he heard the words, and said: "I'm young, so you shouldn't be the ones to see me, but since you're here, it's better to have a meal together, and don't make this trip in vain."

Although Mrs. Ye Wang's advice was not to stay in the Funing Courtyard for a long time, but in the face of Ye Chongjin's kind invitation, neither of these two people could say a word, but they felt a little secretly happy.

Nanny An ordered someone to serve the meal, and the three of them were about to eat when they saw a few maids running in in a panic, saying: "Little master, Your Highness is here, and they have already entered the yard."

With a thud, the jade white porcelain spoon in Ye Chongjin's hand fell into the bowl. He just offended this guy yesterday, so he came here today to teach him a lesson?

"Just say I'm not here..."

He was so frightened that he ran to the bedroom, and saw the open carved pear wood window at a glance. He hurriedly climbed up, and just stabilized his figure, when he raised his eyes, he saw the man standing under a peach tree not far away, Looking at him with arms crossed.

A handsome boy of six or seven years old, with disheveled hair, squatted on the window sill, blinked and said, "Hello, Your Highness."
