Raising Dogs as Eunuchs [Rebirth]

This Wei Yan was an old acquaintance with his Duke Dugong. In terms of age, he was a few months older than Xie Yuan. Although he was still young, he was good at leading troops in battle.

It's just that he is not good at being a person on weekdays, he acts recklessly, and often does not obey the rules, because the emperor has mentioned this matter to him many times, but each time it can only be used for a certain period of time. Still the same.

Many officials in the court also looked down on him, and it was thanks to Xie Yuan who had been by the emperor's side for so many years to protect him that he went to the throne again and again. Now in this position.

For such a capable general, Zhao Minsheng has always respected him very much, but there is only Wei Yan in front of him. For some reason, he always doesn't like him. He was faintly deepened by Xie Yuan's performance.

"Why are you in a daze? Let's go!"

After Wei Yan finished speaking, seeing that Xie Yuan was unmoved, he became a little irritable. He hung the whip in his hand on his waist, walked forward in two steps, grabbed Xie Yuan's sleeve, and turned his head to go Lead people outside the palace.

A gust of cool wind passed by, blowing the withered grass on both sides of the path, all bent down.

Xie Yuan stood in the middle of the path, with his arms wide open facing the wind, and the cloak behind him fluttered slightly in the wind, like a silent banner.

The two people beside them stood facing each other, but they just looked at each other and never spoke. Suddenly, the atmosphere around the three of them became silent and terrifying, only the sound of the wind was still whispering in their ears. A flying bird flapped its wings and landed on a narrow branch beside Zhao Minsheng, looking at it with its head poking around.

Then he hurried away with fluttering wings, shaking the loose snow on the branches to the ground.

Snowflakes fluttered down, some fell on the ground, and some scattered on Zhao Minsheng's shoulders, and were slightly melted by the heat from the person's body.But he didn't notice it, until now, all his attention can be said to be on Xie Yuan.

Facing the irritable Wei Yan in front of him, Zhao Minsheng stood behind silently. Although he didn't say anything, the hand that was holding on to Xie Yuan's sleeve did not loosen at all. Very nice to see.

But this Wei Yan also made it clear that he didn't take him seriously. From the very beginning when he came, Zhao Minsheng was treated as a completely transparent person by him.

No hello, no hello, even blatantly snatching someone from him, not bothering to say hello to him.

Zhao Minsheng suffered a lot from this kind of cold reception in this palace. If it was just this, he didn't have the heart to argue with others, but Xie Yuan had already agreed to him, but Wei Yan still didn't even say hello. To snatch people away from him really made Zhao Minsheng a little angry.

What's more, Xie Yuan suffered too much when he was young, and his stomach troubles are not suitable for drinking. If it is not for entertainment, he hardly drinks at all. Now that he is so tired, Wei Yan even wants to use the opportunity of celebrating his birthday Taking people out of the palace to drink, this strengthened Zhao Minsheng's determination to stop them.

In this way, Xie Yuan was pulled in the middle of the road by two people, one by one and one by one hand. From a distance, it looked like a tug-of-war, which really put him in a dilemma, a bit embarrassing.Besides, now that the three of them are in the palace, they are always arguing like this, and stalemate is not an option.

Since neither of these two people intends to let go, he has no choice but to let him speak out first.

"Hey, I just promised His Highness Duke Huai to go to Taoyun Courtyard, and now it would be breaking my promise to go with you, so let's wait another day for drinking, and I will definitely have a good drink with you on another day."

Xie Yuan was sandwiched between the two, in a dilemma, very awkward, but compared with the two, he still had the duty to choose Zhao Minsheng. After all, Wei Yan was his best friend, and just because of this small matter, it wouldn't affect him much. The friendship between the two, even if Wei Yan had to quarrel with him for a few days because of this matter, it will be healed after two days.

But it was different with Zhao Minsheng, he was Xie Yuan's master after all, it was not right for people to be left out in the cold because of business these past few days, besides, he had really promised him just now, it would not be appropriate to talk about going back on his word at this time.

Xie Yuan was originally a nice-talking fellow discussing with others, but he didn't want Wei Yan's goofy behavior to come up at this time again, regardless of what 21, just desperately dragging people down, and even bluffing his face later Speaking of Zhao Minsheng.

"It's just such a boy who can't get a job and a martial arts. Looking at the whole palace, you are still willing to talk to him. Today is your birthday. I found a good wine with great difficulty, so you just go with me. What are you doing with him!"

That Wei Yan was outspoken, he often spoke out of his head, and he didn't know what to say. Since he heard that Xie Yuan was sent to be Zhao Minsheng's teacher a few days ago, he always felt that he was delaying Xie Yuan's future. He had been holding his breath in his chest, and now he wanted to invite someone to have a drink on his birthday, but was disturbed by Zhao Minsheng.

This mouthful of anger was sent to him naturally, but it would be fine if such words were said in private on weekdays, but they absolutely dare not say them in this palace.

Xie Yuan didn't expect this person to be messed up at this time. After hearing what he said, his face immediately sank, and he flipped his hand over, flipping the sleeves out of his sleeve, and hit Wei Yan who was holding onto his shirt. The hand on the sleeve, and soon broke free from his hand.

"Shut up! In the palace city, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, how can you be so presumptuous!"

What a serious crime it is to insult the prince of the dynasty, once it is used by someone with a heart, it will cause endless troubles.

Even if Xie Yuan had the means, he would still be unable to make a decision for the emperor. He could use that trick to keep Wei Yan ten times, but he couldn't keep him a hundred times. If he is still like this, he can say whatever he wants , Do whatever you want, if you don't know restraint and repentance at all, then once the Sacred Heart is lost, it will be the time for Wei Yan to bury his bones.

"I... I didn't say anything."

After working so hard, Wei Yan seemed to understand that he said something that he shouldn't have just said, but it was just out of face, so he held it coyly and refused to admit it.

Hearing what he said, Xie Yuan cast a gloomy look at him thoughtfully, then turned his head and gave a slow salute to Zhao Minsheng. He was about to apologize for him, but unexpectedly, Zhao Minsheng opened his mouth first. mouth.

"It's okay, Wei Wei is straightforward, but Minsheng is not a person who can't take jokes. Since they are all friends of the Duke, why don't we go to my Taoyun Court today to have a light meal together."

"Your Highness..."

Hearing what Zhao Minsheng said, Xie Yuan raised his head in a daze, and froze for a moment, but the young man in front of him suddenly stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder lightly. The force was not strong, but it made Xie Yuan suddenly I feel very at ease.

I don't know how, after being reborn, Xie Yuan can always feel a trace of sophistication in Zhao Minsheng that doesn't belong to his age, and sometimes, even Xie Yuan will feel that the young man in front of him is completely can be relied on.

Now, it is even more so. Faced with Wei Yan's humiliation, Zhao Minsheng not only did not express any anger, but put down his posture very graciously, and took the initiative to invite people to Taoyun Courtyard, which made Xie Yuan, who was caught in the middle, couldn't help but He breathed a sigh of relief and gave him a grateful look.

Only Wei Yan kept putting on a dirty face all the way, as if he didn't want to come here.

When the three of them stepped on Ruixue back to the Taoyun Courtyard, it was almost dark outside, and the charcoal pot in the house was heating up, and there was a small table next to the charcoal pot, and the three of them gathered around it. The small floor table sat on the floor on top of the soft blanket.

There were three cups of fragrant tea on the table, and a few freshly brought sweet persimmons. The soft blanket under them was warm and comfortable. The three of them sat on the ground casually, feeling the aroma of the fruity tea mixed with the hot air around them. On their faces, they occasionally exchanged two or three sentences with each other, and the atmosphere was so comfortable that it made people drowsy.

As the new year approached, Xie Yuan, apart from taking care of the trivial matters inside and outside the mansion, also had to drink and socialize with the officials of the court. Recently, he hadn't relaxed like this for a long time.

"Today is Dugong Xie's birthday. It would be too shabby for His Highness to entertain people with these things. At least some good wine should be served."

Wei Yan didn't know what was going on, so he didn't deal with Zhao Minsheng. After finally being quiet for a while, he couldn't sit still anymore, took a persimmon in his mouth, and started to trouble Zhao Minsheng.

Xie Yuan was sitting at the side, already a little drowsy, but now that he heard someone say that, he pulled himself together again, wanting to protect Zhao Minsheng a little.

Unexpectedly, just as he sat up straight, Zhao Minsheng gently pushed him back, and even added a cloak on him.

"Of course there are good wines. If you want to have dinner later, I will accompany you to have a good drink. It's just that Xie Yuan can't drink it."

When Wei Yan heard this, he immediately laughed. He really was a brat, and he didn't blink his eyes when he spoke big words.

"Your Highness is seventeen this year. Even if you say big things, you are past the age to regret it. Compared with Xie Yuan, you should worry more about yourself. Dugong Xie has a lot of alcohol."

Zhao Minsheng stretched out his hand to cover the cloak on Xie Yuan's body, then turned around and said something firmly.

"I said I'm here to drink with you, so I'm here. What are you doing talking so much nonsense, Duke Du has been tired for the past few days, so it's not suitable for drinking."

After hearing Zhao Minsheng's words, Wei Yan glanced timidly at Xie Yuan's slightly thin face, only to find that he was indeed a little tired today, and the bruises under his eyes were even more conspicuous.

After knowing this, Wei Yan saw that his behavior was so awkward. He was neither willing to admit his negligence in front of Zhao Minsheng, nor could he continue to force Xie Yuan with unreasonable words. After thinking about it, the only thing he could do was He continued to maintain his dead duck-like mouth.

"Tch, then you and I will have a drink, serve the wine!"
