obey

"Wen Ji." Li Yuan snorted, "It's really like you, gentle and quiet. But it's not as friendly as Xiao Qi."

"Has your family ever engaged you in marriage?" Li Yuan's eyes were gentle.

Ying Qi frowned, and couldn't help explaining: "Of course not..."

"Okay." Li Yuan said dubiously, "Girls in and out of the house, if you like someone, tell me."

To be honest, there are quite a few girls who want to marry Yingwei. Some of them yearn for men with cold-blooded and ruthless martial arts. It is more because of the high salary of Yingwei. If the guardian dies unfortunately, his family can get A very considerable sum of comfort money, this is a hard-working business, and the escape is not for myself, but for my wife, children and parents.

"The subordinates only want to protect you, and don't want to be tied down by the love of your children."

"Well, that's good, I like it." Li Yuan's mood suddenly became brighter, and he pulled Ying Qi to bed, hugged his tense and stiff body from behind, pressed his lips against his neck and said softly, "This is your As I said, I didn't force you. From now on, you have to be by my side. "

Ying Qi was hugged by his master tremblingly, with his back pressed against the warm chest of His Royal Highness, the wound that had been aching because of the salt punishment no longer hurt.The shadow imprint on the right shoulder blade seemed to be burning hot, and the Tianxiang Peony imprint underneath became warm and fiery.

This is the scene he has fantasized about for many years. When he was 13 years old, he wrote a prayer in the Chaohai Temple. He was embraced by His Highness as he wished. All his wishes have come true, and he has nothing more to ask for.

"Of order." He replied in a low voice, as if making a solemn promise.

That time in the old prince's tea bamboo hall, Ying Qi heard that His Royal Highness has a fiancée, the Overlord Princess Li Luoyan.

His Royal Highness was born in the royal family and is the only son of the prince. Even if the future heir of the Qi Palace has no affection, he must marry a wife for the sake of family friendship and family succession.

Ying Qi doesn't care, as long as he can stay by His Highness' side, protect him, protect the palace, protect his wife and children, Ying Qi is willing.

Li Yuan saw that he stopped talking, so he hugged him quietly from behind, feeling Ying Qi's rapid heartbeat, he felt that this little shadow guard liked him very much, otherwise he wouldn't be so obedient.

"If you can sleep well by my company, then you can sleep, I'll be with you. If someone bullied you on the boat, I'm sorry." Li Yuan whispered in his ear.

"No, Your Highness is serious... This subordinate will send you back to your dormitory..."

"You want to disobey?" Li Yuan lowered his voice.

"...Yes." Ying Qi reluctantly said yes.

The room was still filled with tranquilizing medicine. Ying Qi couldn't sleep all night for several days in a row. Even when he fell asleep, he was haunted by nightmares. Since he came out of the Shadow Palace, he hadn't slept peacefully for a few times. He was hugged gently by His Royal Highness. Uneasy, after a long time, he relaxed his body, thinking that it would be nice to lie in His Highness's arms and sleep for a while.

He was sleepy and his eyelids were heavy.

Li Yuan stroked his hair, and whispered: "From now on, you are not allowed to drink tranquilizers, if you can't sleep, come to me."

Ying Qi nestled in Li Yuan's arms, her breathing gradually calmed down.

Li Yuan looked down at his pale and tender neck exposed between the strands of hair, and resisted a burst of evil fire and did not bite his mouth. This child is still a boy with a pure heart, and he showed his master all the deadly parts unsuspectingly. She has no scheming, and she doesn't know how to protect herself.

Who can such a child protect?

Li Yuan rubbed his soft hair and slowly closed his eyes.

The father is coming back soon, and the days when he can sleep so recklessly in a shadow guard room are numbered.

When Li Yuan woke up the next day, there was a curtain on the small window, the sunlight was not glaring, the room was tidy and the mattress was tidy, but there was one person missing.

Shadow Seven is not there.

This time it was almost noon, and the shadow guard had a strict schedule, so he probably wouldn't sleep with his master until the sun was up.

The sound of footsteps and fights came from the corridor outside the door, and one could tell it was the voice of that rambunctious brat Ying Wu:

"Oh, it's comfortable. It's so refreshing to take a bath after training. Hey Xiaoqi, what are you having for lunch? Why don't you come with me to Beixiang to eat steamed buns?"

A slightly colder voice answered briefly: "Okay."

"Hey, I'll go to your room to play for a while. I'll have nothing to do later. My brother is going to Qinglongya with the prince. I'm very bored."

"Yes." The cold voice agreed.

The wooden door was pushed open a little, Ying Qi had just come in half body, saw Li Yuan was leisurely reading a book in his room, his eyes widened, he retracted the door and slammed the door behind him.

"Ah? What's the matter?" Ying Wu was puzzled, he was wearing a thin shirt, his upper body was naked, and water was still dripping from his hair, "Hurry up, it's so cold after taking a shower, I want to lie on your bed. "

Ying Qi's eyes narrowed: "The room is chaotic."

Ying Wu was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud: "Your room is messy with nothing in it, you have never been in my room, and once you come in, I will let you see what it means to get out of the mud without staining."

Ying Qi frowned: "Brother Six is ​​looking for you, hurry up."

"Really? Then I'll go get some clothes on." Ying Wu looked puzzled, wiped his hair with a cloth towel, and walked away humming a little tune.

Ying Qi breathed a sigh of relief, quietly entered the residence, closed the door carefully, and bumped into His Royal Highness's arms as soon as he turned around.

Ying Qi's body trembled as if being scalded: "Your Highness...you, why haven't you...go..."

"Wouldn't you be able to see this wonderful scene after leaving?" Li Yuan stretched out his hand to support Ying Qi's naked chest. He was only wearing a bathing suit, and his half-length hair was untied, dripping wetly behind his back. .

She's only 17 years old with such a figure... Li Yuan licked her lips and ate Yingqi tofu recklessly.This is not on the street, where you can only pinch your buttocks twice so sloppily.

Li Yuan pushed Ying Qi to the door and held it down. His palms slipped over the tightly arranged muscles on his abdomen, and then he touched the muscle lines of his shoulder blades along his shoulders, stroking his shadow characters engraved with Feilian animal patterns. The brand mark, the fingertips seem to touch a protrusion, and if you touch it down, you will almost touch the salt torture wound on his back.

Ying Qi felt the pain and subconsciously rejected Li Yuan.

Before Li Yuan touched it carefully, he felt Ying Qi's slight struggle, and said: "I said last night, don't push me."

Ying Qi froze, dropped her hands and gave up struggling, let the master enjoy it, stepped back a little, and pressed her back against the wooden door, not wanting Li Yuan to touch her wound.

The dozens of incisions were too serious, the wounds often cracked or festered, and bathing could only avoid the wounds. Ying Qi didn't want His Royal Highness to touch the dirt, and he didn't want His Royal Highness' sympathy and disturbing preferential treatment.

Li Yuan let go, and sat back on the bed, savoring the touch of his fingertips.The only regret is that he wore pants and the belt was still tight.

As soon as Li Yuan let go of his hand, Ying Qi disappeared, suddenly appeared by the cupboard, found a set of clean shadow guard clothes just delivered by the laundry room, disappeared suddenly, and landed in the outer hall, quickly put on neat clothes, and landed on Li Yuan. In front of the garden.

It took no more than two breaths from picking up the clothes to dressing neatly and falling back in front of His Royal Highness.

Li Yuan hooked his hands and called Ying Qi to come over, with one arm around his waist and the other wrapped around Ying Qi's legs, both waist and legs were slender and tight, and there was a very faint scent of saponins on his body.

Shadow guards are not official, and they are not allowed to enter the top ranks, but they are the cleanest industry. They must follow the rules to groom their appearance and train their posture. Fingernails, fingernails, hair, and clothing must be completely clean. Blood from wounds is not allowed to see through the clothing. And so on and so on cumbersome rules.

Ordinary people think that the shadow guards are haunted, but when they appear occasionally, they are dressed in glamorous clothes, but they don't know that the shadow guards are the face of the master. Once they show up, they represent the majesty of the family. Others will never see how many bloody scars are pressed under their clothes.

The night clothes Ying Qi was wearing were very thin, and the waist and abdomen were not equipped with protective armor for flexibility of movement. Li Yuan pressed his cheeks to it, and could clearly feel the slender waist wrapped in the clothes and the muscle lines on the lower abdomen. He heard his breathing and heartbeat suddenly quicken.

At the same time, I felt that Ying Qi's body was tense and trembling slightly.

Ying Qi let His Highness embrace her helplessly, with red ears, she gently pushed her away.

Li Yuan warned in a muffled voice: "If you dare to push me one more time, don't think that I will call you again in the future."

Ying Qi was stunned, and the hand that pushed the shoulder of the person on her body loosened slowly, caressing Li Yuan's long hair, no longer resisting, quietly waiting for the master to hug and play with him enough, and then let go.

Li Yuan felt Ying Qi's small movements as if he had been wronged, and felt a little distressed. He patted his tense back and let go.

Ying Qi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, her shoulders relaxed, and she knelt down on the side of the bed, waiting for Li Yuan's orders.

"What kind of material are these clothes? It's so thin." Li Yuan stretched out his hand to pinch the fabric of Ying Qi's skirt, and said in distaste, "Is this what King Father gave you to wear?"

Ying Qi froze for a moment.

"...the Zhidian sanctioned it according to the shape of the guard's uniform, the shadow guard's uniform in satin." Ying Qi replied in a low voice.

In fact, the material of these clothes is already pretty good, and the guards in ordinary mansions cannot afford to wear them.

Li Yuan was still dissatisfied: "Go back and tell Zhidian that all the ghost guards' uniforms will be replaced with Moyun Brocade."

"..."

Even if you haven't seen it, you've heard about it. The precious Moyun brocade in Shuzhong is comfortable to wear, luxurious and unobtrusive. It costs fifty gold a horse, and it's exclusively for the nobles.

"There are also gloves, boots, all changed, what is this, is this comfortable?"

Li Yuan looked at the things on Ying Qi's body one by one, and found that none of them were satisfactory, "I changed the hand guards and shoulder guards, what is this, it's so heavy, it's so heavy that I can't grow up, Ying Liu, who uses the iron casting technique, understands, let him Research, and replace whatever is expensive, comfortable, and durable, so as not to hurt your body and be safe.”

"..." Ying Qi was surprised at first, then gradually fell silent, and knelt in front of Li Yuan with downcast eyes, behaved quietly.

"Not willing?" Li Yuan lowered his head and asked him.

"Thank you Your Highness/Compassionate, I will thank you on behalf of the ghost guards." Ying Qi said softly.His eyes were calm and indifferent, and his voice was slightly hoarse.

Your Highness is also thinking about other ghost guards.

"Don't think too much of me, I just want to make you more comfortable." Li Yuan stretched out his hand to support Ying Qi's cheek, and wiped away a small drop of wet hair dripping from Ying Qi's cheek with his warm fingertips.
