In the dead of night outside, no one spoke in the room for a while, and the atmosphere became a little depressing.

Lin Yanhong hesitated for a moment, but turned around slowly, looked up at Li Jingcheng, and then saw eyes that he would never forget in his life.

Li Jingcheng looked at him with focused and gentle eyes, like a lotus flower frozen in ice, seemingly cold, but with a hint of faint fragrance, refreshing.

But the obstinacy and possessiveness hidden in the concentration also came out from time to time, intentionally or unintentionally let Lin Yanhong see it, which made people fearful.

If this kind of eyes sometimes makes Lin Yanhong overwhelmed, Lin Yanhong likes the way the wolf cub looks at him very much.

The same concentration and directness, because of the crystal clear wolf pupils, with a green shimmer like lake water, it looks a bit playful and cute, even if the possessiveness in them remains undiminished, it is difficult to make people fear and wary.

In any case, it shouldn't be like this-unbelievable, hurt, painful and desperate, then crazy, and finally, there is only unspeakable loneliness...

For a long time afterwards, as long as Lin Yanhong closed his eyes, he would think of Li Jingcheng's appearance at this time, and then fell into endless self-blame.

The child he loved dearly in his hands, the child he poured his heart and soul into, was the one who suffered the most because of him in the end.

It seemed that Lin Yanhong was the first to see Li Jingcheng showing such an expression and such a gaze.

Then, he heard Li Jingcheng say word by word: "You asked me what, you ask me again."

As if he didn't want to wait for Lin Yanhong's answer at all, Li Jingcheng lowered his head after asking this sentence, as if dazed, and repeated: "What did you ask me, ask me again..."

That lonely and fragile posture has a bit of the pitiful look of a little wolf cub, which is not at all inconsistent.

As much as Li Jingcheng knew Lin Yanhong, he knew how to make him feel distressed and soft-hearted.

Seeing this, Lin Yanhong did not repeat his "normal" question just now.

The surging pain in his heart almost made him soften his heart as before, wanting to hug Li Jingcheng immediately and comfort Li Jingcheng.

"Jing Cheng, be obedient... You should know what I'm talking about."

Lin Yanhong clenched his fists where the other party could not see. He stared at Li Jingcheng motionlessly, with the same patience and gentleness as before, but also with indisputable determination and stubbornness, expressing his attitude clearly .

He knew that if his heart softened at this moment, maybe Li Jingcheng would not be hurt for a while, and he would feel the illusory happiness.

But in the future, they will be hurt even more because of this, and it will also hurt everyone who cares and loves them.

Li Jingcheng seemed to have heard the most terrifying thing, and his tall body began to tremble slightly: "If I don't obey, what should I do?"

Lin Yanhong leaned back dejectedly: "Then let's not meet each other for now...we'll talk again when you become obedient."

Hearing this, Li Jingcheng suddenly raised his head, with resistance and stubbornness in his eyes.

He didn't speak any more, got up and got out of bed immediately, pushed open the doors of the inner and outer rooms, and left without saying a word, without giving Lin Yanhong another chance to "threat" himself.

Lin Yanhong sat at the head of the village, looking at the open door, a chill gradually came in, but he didn't have the strength to stand up and close it.

But not long after, the inner and outer doors were strangely closed by some kind of "power", which isolated the coolness of the end of winter from the door.

Lin Yanhong knew what was going on, he didn't feel scared, only felt more heavy.

What he asked was just to test Li Jingcheng's attitude at first, but he didn't expect the other party's reaction to be so intense.

Now that the water is overwhelmed, Lin Yanhong thought to himself, judging from the situation just now, this time Jing Cheng will not "bow his head" to him like in the past.

The only ones Lin Yanhong cares about in the entire Lin family are his father Lin Feng and his younger brother Yansi.

Lin Yanhong dared not stop thinking about how much his father wished to see him get married and start a business, and how he envisioned the future in front of him back then, but every time he thought about it, he suffered a lot.

It is the cruelest thing for him to hurt someone he cares about for someone he cares about.

What Aunt Qi Zhang said to Lin Yanhong did not represent what she alone meant, it was the expectation of the entire maternal ancestral family for him.

In fact, for those who really love Lin Yanhong, seeing Lin Yanhong in good health, with a marriage and future that everyone praises, is probably the happiest thing.

Lin Yanhong's own resistance alone was enough to make him toss and turn and be at a loss, not to mention Li Jingcheng's identity was the biggest obstacle in this relationship.

Prince Yu's Mansion is the most noble palace in Liangzhou. As the son of King Yu, Li Jingcheng is the only son of His Royal Highness King Yu and the only nephew of Emperor Liang.

Even if he is not the ancestor's return, he is destined to live an extraordinary life, and one day he will shoulder the entire Prince Yu's mansion as his own responsibility.

This also means that he has to endure more suffering, loneliness and pain than others.

In the first few years of his life, the life in the mountain temple in Wushan was perhaps the most carefree day in Li Jingcheng's life.

After the autumn hunt, the official family has made no secret of their preference for Li Jingcheng, and he will find a noble daughter from a famous family to be his wife for his beloved nephew before long.

At that time, what will Li Jingcheng have to pay? Could it be that he resisted the order and did not obey it?

Taking a step back, even if he will not intervene in Li Jingcheng's marriage today, he and His Royal Highness King Yu will never sit back and watch Li Jingcheng's unmarried.

When the emperor gets angry, even if Lin Yanhong has the determination to accompany Li Jingcheng through the mountains of swords and fires, can he have the heart to make all the people he cares about pay a painful price for this, and make his Li Jingcheng lose his relatives whose blood is thicker than water?

Li Jingcheng and him are not people who have nothing to worry about, but only each other.

In fact, this kind of astonishing feeling has lessons learned from the past.

After Lin Yanhong came to Beijing, he happened to hear Li Jingcheng mention an old story about Mr. Zhanhe from Qingtong Academy and Mr. Bishan who seemed cynical but was actually well-educated.

In Qingtong Academy, everyone knows that Mr. Zhanhe Xia Zhui has a very good relationship with Mr. Bishan Mr. Wang Luqiu, who was born in a family in the capital.

Both of them were disciples of Wang Xiang, and the Imperial College in Tianjing when they were teenagers and youths was a genius who shocked Tianjing, and was once called the "Twin Walls of the Capital".

However, there are two talented people like this. One suddenly left Tianjing, his hometown, and the other failed to take part in the palace examination. In the end, they both returned. Sigh.

If it is said that Mr. Zhanhe did not marry because he was obsessed with learning, but why Mr. Bishan left Tianjing alone, gave up his bright future to teach at Qingtong Academy, and there is a great meaning of not marrying for the rest of his life?

Lin Yanhong didn't notice it at the beginning, but after thinking about it, even if he had noticed it at the time, he probably wouldn't understand the "reason" for it.

It wasn't until Li Jingcheng told Lin Yanhong some old things that he suddenly realized that it was so!

But if this is true, Mr. Zhanhe and Mr. Bishan may not only give up their official positions and their homeland.

Lin Yanhong could imagine that Mr. Fan Bishan had a little nostalgia for the Wang family, and Mr. Zhanhe felt a little guilty about Wang Xiang as a teacher. The process of leaving was extremely difficult and painful, with the pain of tearing flesh.

So, even if they gave up a lot for each other, and even hid away in Qingtong Academy because of it... so what?

Can they show the slightest affection for each other in front of the students?They can't.

It's not that they don't dare, but they can't... But if this layer of veil is lifted, no matter if it's the two of them or the Wang family, they will fall into chaos, there is no doubt about it.

If Wang Luqiu's severing contact with the Wang family was one of the heavy prices he paid for this relationship, then in order to preserve the face of the Wang family, he could not stand upright in the sun with Mr. Zhanhe, that was what he would pay Another price.

Lin Yanhong was neither Mr. Bishan nor Mr. Zhanhe, so he couldn't guess whether they were lucky or not.

He just wanted to know how they didn't look, listen, or think, and kept all their emotions and secrets in their hearts.

Today, after his aunt left, Lin Yanhong thought about it for a long time alone.

He even opened his heart and faced some problems that he never dared to explore easily in the past.

Since when, the relationship between him and Li Jingcheng has changed from what it was in the beginning, it seems to be unimportant.

What matters is what they do next.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

After Li Jingcheng left Qi Mansion that night, he never appeared again.

He seemed to be completely injured, unwilling to return to Lin Yanhong, fight, or compromise.

After Lin Yanhong lived in a daze for a few days, even Lord Qi found out that his state was not right.

"Brother Hong, what's the matter, you don't have so much dinner today?" Master Qi watched the pale Lin Yanhong leave, and couldn't help asking his wife, "Also, didn't you say that you were giving him a nourishing drink?" Why is this child's complexion worse than when he didn't mend it before?"

——Heh, it’s not just that he doesn’t eat enough dinner. I heard from Amber that he basically didn’t even eat breakfast and lunch!

Knowing that Lin Yanhong had something on his mind, Mrs. Qi and Zhang made several insinuations, but the child didn't say anything.

So she thought about it, and decided to tell Mr. Qi the truth, thinking that her aunt might not be able to handle it, and Mr. Qi Guangyan, his uncle, might be able to fear his uncle's majesty and stop hiding.

Mr. Qi, who doesn't pay attention to any difficult foreign envoys, after hearing this, thought for a long time before muttering with a serious face: "This...how can we do it?"

Mrs. Qi and Zhang: "..." No wonder the old lady from the military family said that if you want to believe that a man is reliable, even a sow must be able to climb a tree—this is really not a rough idea.

Of course, this rough talk is fine to listen to, but if you really say it, I'm afraid it will make the dignified Master Qi faint.

Mrs. Qi and Zhang curled her lips, and expressed her guess: "I see, this situation seems to have started when I mentioned the marriage to him that day. Master, do you think these two things are related?"

——This young man knows how to be lustful, so Mu Shaoai, how can he not be embarrassed for a while when he hears about his marriage... But when he comes to Brother Hong, how come the good things turn into a scourge, there is no feeling of expectation at all.

Mrs. Qi and Zhang are sure that she didn't say anything bad, and Master Qi also believes her, but the result is so, which makes them puzzled.

"Master, Brother Hong...he already has a sweetheart!"

Because I have a sweetheart, but Brother Hong can't be with him for some reason, so when I heard about the marriage, I was so distraught...

But what is the reason that Hong Ge'er has such a desperate attitude towards this sweetheart, as if he must not be able to get married with the other party in the end, and there is a sense of exhaustion all over his body.

Thinking of going together, Mr. Qi and Mrs. Qi and Zhang looked at each other, and went to guess separately.

Could it be some kind of girl from a small family, maybe even the kind who sells goods in the market or performs art, because the family is not the right one, so they can't be together?

Or, some kind of special little girl, but she can't be the one who has already been engaged, right? ! !

Or, what Hong Geer is fascinated by is not real people at all, but the goddesses and immortals recorded in the book?

Mrs. Qi and Zhang recalled that the twins had said jokingly that Brother Hong especially liked books like Earth Tales and Strange Tales, but would he panic if he really met a goddess?

It turns out that there are no scholars who are addicted to the women mentioned in the book and cannot extricate themselves. In the last example of madness, Qi Zhang suddenly became nervous.

"If this is the case, Master, please don't reprimand Brother Hong, you must say what he wants, and don't deny that the fairies and monsters in the book are all fake, lest this child become paranoid. The more you talk, the more persistent he will be." .”

Master Qi nodded, and suddenly realized something: "But Brother Ruohong still..."

"Master, don't curse our brother Hong!" Mrs. Qi Zhang glared at him. It's too late, so you still remember those messy people? You can forget them completely, completely."

Mr. Qi nodded on the face, but he didn't think so in his heart: Madame doesn't understand the persistence of their literati... If you are really obsessed with one thing, one person, it is so easy to "transfer love".

……

In wild conjectures, Master Qi and Mrs. Qi and Zhang wished to ask Lin Yanhong if he liked a "fairy".

Then they also recognized it, and hurriedly found a niece and daughter-in-law just like a "fairy"!

As a result, the New Year's Eve passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was another year of Shangyuan.

According to the usual practice, Tianjing started to light the lanterns on the night of the eighth day of the lunar new year, and the lanterns did not go down until the seventeenth day of the first lunar month. The emperor brought all the officials to watch the lanterns.

Lin Yanhong made a four-sided painted marquee for his family during his first visit to Tianjing, and it did not fail this year.

He drew four screens of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum lanterns and four beautiful lanterns for his uncle and aunt respectively, and a smaller but six-screen children's play lantern for Yansi.

Even Hu Po and the others didn't lose, no matter what, everyone has one, and everyone who sees has a share.

But after finishing these paintings, Lin Yanhong only felt a huge emptiness, and always felt that he still had one, which was not finished.

Amber saw that he was holding the pen but couldn't put it down, so she looked at Mrs. Qi worriedly.

Mrs. Qi and Zhang shook her head, motioning for Hu Po to leave him alone, then waved gently, motioning for Hu Po to go out and talk.

"lady."

"Tomorrow night, I will take Yansi to go to Baibing. Brother Hong will naturally accompany us,"

Mrs. Qi and Zhang told her about her plan: "But it's not interesting to stay with us all the time. When the time comes, we will go back to the house first, and let Nianbei in your yard take his servants to walk around with Brother Hong. Relax."

After that, she handed a totem-painted mask to Amber: "Don't forget to prepare thicker clothes and a cloak for Brother Hong."

"Yes, ma'am, don't worry." Amber also hoped to go out to relax and make the young master happier.

She looked down at the mask in her hand, which was painted with hideous totems, which were said to have the effect of exorcising evil spirits.

——The young master wears this mask to get rid of all kinds of diseases, and he will definitely be able to drive away all the bad things!

In the evening of the next day, after dinner at home, the Qi Mansion's brigade set off from Qinren Lane to Fang Street with a bridge.

Mrs. Qi and Zhang took Brother Hong and Yansi to cross the bridge, and every time they had the momentum to walk all the bridges in the capital.

After the new year, Yansi was already nine years old. Although he was an heir, he and Lin Yanhong were related by blood, so the two looked somewhat similar.

In addition, he grew up beside Lin Yanhong, regarded Lin Yanhong as his father and brother, and worshiped him very much in his heart, so he would learn his demeanor subconsciously, and over time he became more like Lin Yanhong.

Even people like Qi and Zhang who know the situation feel that the brothers are like brothers, let alone those passers-by who don't know the situation and only look at their eyes.

Lin Yanhong's appearance is outstanding, the lanterns in the Shangyuan are bright, and the night is like day, which can't hide his alluring appearance.

Accompanied by the pair of brothers, Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Zhang felt that there was wind under her feet as she walked on the road, not to mention how proud she looked.

But when Lin Yanhong attracted onlookers and almost blocked the way, it was a little troublesome again.

Mrs. Qi and Zhang asked Amber to pass the mask over: "Brother Hong, please put the mask on. There are so many people, we won't be able to walk a few bridges tonight!" Don't complain, the ending sound rises, I feel more proud than before.

Hu Po and other maids and entourages all smiled when they heard Mrs. Qi teasing the eldest (county) young master.

Lin Yanhong was a little absent-minded at first, but after being stuffed with a mask and being teased by his aunt, he was stunned for a while.

Seeing him in a daze, Mrs. Qi and Zhang felt sorry for him, and helped him put on the mask with her own hands.

Yansi asked curiously: "If brother wears a mask, others will not be able to see him, but how can we recognize him?"

When Qi Zhang heard this, he smiled and said, "If you have the heart, of course you can recognize it."

If they have the heart, even if they are in the vast crowd, they will meet sooner or later.
