Chapter 26 Chapter 2 Collecting the World

in the palace.

Zhong Xibai lay on Emperor Xia Changde's lap like a doze, looking quiet and well-behaved.

Xia Changde was sitting on the couch, stroking Zhong Xibai's head with one hand, and reviewing the memorial with the other, his movements were also very light.

There was a harmonious and peaceful atmosphere between the two, which was really wonderful.

After an unknown amount of time passed, Zhong Xibai slowly opened his eyes and looked at Xia Changde above him.

Feeling Zhong Xibai's gaze, Xia Changde also lowered his head to look at Zhong Xibai, and said with a smile, "Sleep a little longer?"

Zhong Xibai shook his head, turned over unexpectedly, stretched out his arms around Xia Changde's waist facing inward, and rubbed his face on Xia Changde's leg.

It's too tight...

Xia Changde's body was slightly stiff, he wanted to be farther away but also closer...

"Your guts are too fat." Zhong Xibai said.

Xia Changde's heart jumped, only to hear Zhong Xibai continue to say: "I tried to open the birdcage again, and guess what? It didn't even fly away."

Xia Changde breathed a sigh of relief, put down the memorial in his hand, lifted Zhong Xibai up, and let him lie in his arms.

"Maybe you cooked it?" Xia Changde said.

"No, it doesn't look at me more than one hand every day." Zhong Xibai adjusted himself to the most comfortable position in Xia Changde's arms.

Xia Changde who hugged Zhong Xibai couldn't help being silent, he didn't understand why Zhong Xibai always had to argue with a bird, but he was happy as long as he was happy.

Suddenly, Zhong Xibai's mood became depressed, he put his arms around Xia Changde's neck, buried his face in the hollow of his shoulder, and called out with a trace of melancholy in his voice: "Brother Huang..."

Xia Changde was taken aback, patted his back lightly, and asked, "What's the matter? But what wronged you?"

Zhong Xibai shook his head slightly, "I found out that I have changed my mind."

Realizing the meaning of Zhong Xibai's words, Xia Changde's heart beat violently again, but he held Zhong Xibai's hand tightly, put his chin on Zhong Xibai's head, and said in a normal voice: "If you don't meet the right person, if you change your mind too late, it will be very easy to hurt your body. It's too late for you to change your mind now, but it's okay, it's not too late."

Zhong Xibai remained silent, wondering if he had listened to Xia Changde's words.

After a while, Zhong Xibai said in a low voice: "Because it's different."

After all, Xia Changde still knew Zhong Xibai, and instantly understood the meaning of Zhong Xibai's words, "No one is the same from the beginning to the end. Of course, there is another possibility that she is actually the same from the beginning to the end. It's the same, you just don't see clearly."

"I know it too, but I didn't think that I could change my mind as soon as I said it, so I'm still ruthless." Zhong Xibai murmured in a somewhat perplexed tone.

Just like a teenager caught in confusion, he needs someone to guide him in the direction.

Xia Changde replied without hesitation: "You don't need to be affectionate, you are a prince, this is the right you have as a status and the right I give you."

Zhong Xibai's mood seemed to improve, he moved, raised his eyes to look at Xia Changde, squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Then what should I do to Brother Huang?"

Xia Changde also narrowed his eyes slightly, pinched Zhong Xibai's chin, and the two of them almost touched the tip of their noses, with a threatening tone, and said, "You can try it if you dare."

Zhong Xibai couldn't laugh or cry, and replied repeatedly: "Yes, my brother dare not, my brother dare not."

Looking at Zhong Xibai's appearance, Xia Changde's eyes deepened, and he kissed the corner of Zhong Xibai's mouth like a reward, then scraped his face with his fingers and said, "Good boy."

Zhong Xibai was dumbfounded, the corner of his mouth seemed to still have the warmth of Xia Changde's lips.

Xia Changde smiled, and said as if nothing had happened: "Why is it like this, can't I kiss the emperor's younger brother?"

Zhong Xibai returned to his senses, shook his head, and said in embarrassment: "Of course not, it's just..." The place of kiss was wrong.

Before Zhong Xi could finish his vernacular, Xia Changde cut him off, "This is just an expression of my intimacy with the emperor. If the emperor feels that he is at a disadvantage, at worst, he will come back with a kiss."

"No need, no loss!" Zhong Xibai immediately replied.

Xia Changde seemed a little regretful, and reconfirmed unwillingly: "You really don't feel disadvantaged? I allow you to take revenge on me after you feel disadvantaged, how about you never get angry afterwards?"

"..." Zhong Xibai refused to be fooled, and got up from Xia Changde's body, "I'm going back to the palace."

Seeing that Zhong Xibai did not give in, Xia Changde said again: "If you go back to the palace, I really can't figure out that I will allow you to take revenge at any time like I did to you."

Zhong Xibai also obeyed Xia Changde's insistence, bowed to the emperor and resigned, and slipped away like oiling the soles of his feet, as if there was a man-eating monster behind him.

Xia Changde shook his head helplessly, and continued to review the memorial.

After a while, Gan Jinyuan went to Zhong Xibai's house again, and personally informed Zhong Xibai of the investigation results of Zhang Zhilan's matter.

This matter is surprisingly simple on the surface.

The maid who served Zhang Zhilan has always harbored resentment after being scolded by Zhang Zhilan.

After learning about Zhang Zhilan's disfigurement, she has been secretly happy, but she accidentally learned that He Xiang went out of the house to find Master Zhang to get the elixir for this kind of wound. After hearing the news, the maid became suspicious and hurriedly bought it outside. A box of ordinary plaster, this kind of inferior plaster is not very effective in healing wounds, and it will inevitably leave scars when it is applied, and then waits for Hexiang on the road that Hexiang must pass, but she hides in the dark and watches Hexiang. Can't find a chance to start.

But in the end it was a coincidence that Zhang Zhilan was taking a nap when He Xiang came back, and Zhang Zhilan had a habit of drinking a bowl of bird's nest every time she woke up, so when He Xiang came back, she found that Zhang Zhilan had left the room after taking a nap. Given a good opportunity, the maid replaced the item without anyone noticing, but she was a little scared after getting the item, so she went out of the house and sold the real Ningyu ointment for two taels of silver that day.

The maid didn't know who she sold it to, but someone saw her holding something wrapped in a black cloth in a panic and came up to ask. After taking a look at the Ningyu paste, she quoted two taels of silver. The price, the maid who was eager to get rid of it sold it without hesitation.

After getting two taels of silver for nothing, and thinking that Zhang Zhilan's face would never get better, the maid's mood became better again, but she never thought that Gan Jinyuan would investigate this matter, and finally found her.

Now, after Zhang Zhilan cut her face with a hairpin, that maid was kicked out of the General's Mansion by a random stick.

It's just that all of this seems to be going too smoothly, too coincidental...

Zhong Xibai glanced at Gan Jinyuan, and nodded slightly without expressing his inner thoughts.

Gan Jinyuan couldn't be happier with Zhong Xibai's reaction, because Zhong Xibai's reaction showed that he no longer cared about Zhang Zhilan in his heart.

Within a few days, Zhong Xibai received a letter from Zhang Zhilan asking him to meet in private.

After Zhong Xibai saw the letter, he pondered for a long time in the room, and finally wrote back to Zhang Zhilan, expressing his attitude directly in the letter, and expressing that he would not go to the appointment.

Things seemed to calm down like that.

Until one day, Gan Jinyuan and Zhong Xibai went outing together in the outskirts of the city, and happened to meet Zhang Zhilan who was going to Guanghua Temple.

When the three met under such circumstances, they all had different thoughts, and were speechless for a while.

Gan Jinyuan naturally didn't want Zhong Xibai and Zhang Zhilan to stay for a long time, so he took the lead to break the silence and took Zhong Xibai to walk in different directions, while Zhang Zhilan just watched them go away with dim eyes.

That night, Zhong Xibai received another letter from Zhang Zhilan, which told him that he had something important to tell him, which was related to Gan Jinyuan, but he had been kept in the dark about it.

Zhong Xibai thought about it, and decided to meet Zhang Zhilan.

So Zhong Xibai arrived at the place agreed by Zhang Zhilan at the appointed time, and Zhang Zhilan was already waiting there.

"I knew you would definitely come." Zhang Zhilan looked at Zhong Xibai and subconsciously showed some kindness towards Zhong Xibai.

Zhong Xibai treated Zhang Zhilan as he said in the previous reply letter, completely treating her as a stranger, "Is there anything you want to tell me?"

Zhang Zhilan didn't care about Zhong Xibai's indifference, she just smiled and said, "Before that, I want to ask you, did you still give up on me and choose him?"

Zhong Xibai frowned, but did not respond.

The smile on Zhang Zhilan's face deepened, "I'm not asking about reality, I just want to ask about your heart, did you give up in your heart and choose him?"

"The question doesn't make sense."

"Why not?" Zhang Zhilan stepped forward, looking at Zhong Xibai affectionately, "I still miss you now, but have you already chosen to abandon me?"

Zhong Xibai looked at Zhang Zhilan, and said in a deep voice: "Madam Gan, please be respectful! You used to have no affection for me, so where does it come from now? Now that you are married to someone else's wife, it is naturally impossible for me to guard my heart I have already returned your love and meaning to you."

"Yes, I used to be confused. I kept pretending that I couldn't see your affection for me. When you finally told me that you wanted me to be your princess, you said that you were only hanging on you as a friend, so now I am being punished. It's retribution, I married someone I don't love, but did you abandon me just like that?" Zhang Zhilan cried while covering her face.

Zhong Xibai looked at the sobbing woman in front of him with an unclear expression, and said ruthlessly, "Yes."

Zhang Zhilan choked, and looked at Zhong Xibai in disbelief, with tears in her eyes, as if she didn't expect that the offensive of her tears would not arouse this man's pity.

"Hehe." Zhang Zhilan wiped away the tears on her face, "Since I can't get it, then he can't get it either."

Zhong Xibai frowned slightly, not knowing why.

"Didn't you ask me what I wanted you to do? Then I'll tell you now." Zhang Zhilan had a weird smile on her face, which was particularly frightening when paired with his red and swollen eyes.

"The person you really treat as a brother has always been secretly admiring you..." Zhang Zhilan said in a strange voice, "Are you moved?"
