obey

Li Yuan opened the door of the private room and pulled Ying Qi in.

Ying Qi looked around, and the child left.

Li Yuan lowered his head and asked him: "Xiaoqi is so motivated, are you jealous of children?"

Ying Qi froze: "Subordinates dare not."

Li Yuan smiled and bowed his head: "It's so difficult to admit it."

Ying Qi turned her head to one side, the tips of her ears turned red again.

There is one behind him, a heavenly fragrance peony branded by His Highness himself.He thought that the mark on himself was unique, and seeing that His Royal Highness wanted to brand the mark that he had cherished for many years on others, Ying Qi became extremely anxious.

"Don't you want me to brand someone else? Then don't do it." Li Yuan snapped Ying Qi's head back and asked him, "Then this mark, do you want it? It hurts to have it burned on."

"It's okay." Ying Qi's voice was slightly hoarse.

Li Yuan said distressedly: "Farewell, it hurts, you still have injuries, so let's not do this for now."

There was some disappointment in Ying Qi's eyes, and she nodded obediently.

Li Yuan surrounded him from behind, kissed his neck, and stuffed the Tianxiang peony seal into his palm.

"You take this, and I'll use it later with your consent, okay?"

Ying Qi was at a loss with the heavy seal, and said in panic, "I dare not, how can I take such a valuable power..."

Li Yuan coaxed: "You are my personal ghost guard. Anyway, you have to guard by my side all the time. Just treat me as too heavy and keep it for me."

Ying Qi silently lowered her eyelids, hesitated for a while, and said yes.

"So cute." Li Yuan kissed him on the cheek, touching and hugging him.There is an urge to hand over all the income from the property of his other village to Xiaoqi for safekeeping.

In the evening, the waiter respectfully announced outside the door, saying that the preparations were ready, and asked the young master to move to the cabinet.

Ying Qi's clothes were still stained with dried blood, she felt that it was indecent to follow His Highness to see outsiders like this, and insulted the dignity of the palace, so she had to borrow a neat guard uniform from the waiter to change into, and followed Li Yuan two steps away.

Circling around the wooden ladder and going up, it suddenly became clear.

"It is indeed valuable to come at night, so it is better to be cautious in your words and deeds." Li Yuan collected his expression and instructed, "You don't need to talk too much, even if I am in danger, don't show your skills too much, those few people are accompanied by guards , let's stop showing off."

Gathering here tonight are two of Li Yuan's cousins, both of whom came from afar, in the name of inspecting the two prefectures of Linxun, to visit brothers who have not seen each other for a long time.

The candlelight shines through the red wall of the lamp, emitting a sweet red light, swaying gently in front of the door, the fringe of light sweeps beside Ying Qi's face, Ying Qi feels the atmosphere is cold, and there is a wave of extremely lonely It had a faint breath, and Ying Qi was used to being a shadow guard, so he could smell the bloody smell washed by water and saponins.

Ying Qi tensed up suddenly, her right hand was inadvertently pressed on the hilt of the sword on her lower back, her left hand subconsciously raised slightly, and protected Li Yuan's side.

From the corner of Li Yuan's eyes, he caught a glimpse of Ying Qi who was facing a formidable enemy, his eyes suddenly softened, he turned around and held Ying Qi's left hand, and said in a low voice: "Don't be nervous, this place is just like this."

The crown prince's wide sleeves hung down to cover their hands, Ying Qi was held in trembling hands, and His Highness's hands were soft and smooth, which was far different from his own scarred and calloused hands.

Suddenly, his palms were wet with sweat and his fingers were cold. He couldn't figure out what His Highness's intentions were, so he could only follow quietly.

He was like a docile and vigilant animal, just holding his hand gently, Li Yuan could feel his nervousness.But no matter what, I don't want to let go.

The servants and maids around stood bowing their heads, waiting for the honored guest. One of the women held a gilded copper lotus candle in her hand, and lightly climbed up to the high platform in front of the door, lighting up the candle on the door beam of the upper pavilion. The glazed octagonal lanterns in the house are still cold and silent, no one cares about them.

The lamp hanging on the beam of the door is connected with the surrounding wicks, and runs through it. When the main lamp is turned on, all the bird totems on the third floor of Chaomu Building are lit up, illuminating the dusty and dark third floor brightly.

The Chaomu building is hollow, with winding stairs, and the pear flower terrace at the bottom is suddenly quiet. The gamblers stand upright, looking up at the suddenly bright upper pavilion on the top, and chatting suddenly.

An old gambler who has been in the Chaomu Building for decades was smoking a cigarette and chatting with others: "The upper pavilion is open, here comes the big man." .

"Where did Yuan'er go? Could it be that he was intercepted by an assassin again?"

A frivolous and arrogant young man's voice sounded from behind. A young master was holding a longbow with vermilion lacquer antlers in his arms. The old god was plucking the bowstring, laughing in a low voice with another young man in black robe beside him.

Li Mo is dressed in a red raffle flame pattern suit, with a butterfly holding a moon lock on his neck. His sharp eyes are like shining stars. At first glance, he looks like a rebellious and frivolous young man, but in his bones, he has a murderous nature and is too addicted to slaughter. This one has been on the battlefield, he is really capable.

The young man in black frowned: "Mo'er, don't say a few words, the last time was an accident, who would have expected such a thing to happen."

The crown prince, Li Sheng, was dressed in a black robe inlaid with gold, with a reserved demeanor and a steady demeanor, but his brows were indifferent, not angry and majestic, making him difficult to approach.

Since the two of them entered the door of the Chaomu Building, the compelling and noble aura of their bodies could be seen. Even if they were wearing ordinary clothes, they couldn't hide the elegance and grace in their bones.

There was a sneer on the corner of Li Mo's mouth, and he stretched out his bow to the prince next to him to block the gamblers who didn't have long eyes in the way: "Cousin, please?"

The crown prince nodded slightly in return: "You don't need to greet me. I'm not so open-minded, it's okay."

Li Mo held the longbow and looked around: "Where did Li Yuan go? Don't be blocked by assassins again? Hey! Li Yixian—?"

A few waiters in silver shirts hurried down upstairs, greeted them respectfully, and asked in a low voice: "Are you two guests of Mr. Yixian? Please come to the pavilion."

Li Yuan had been waiting in the upper pavilion for a long time, sitting quietly with a bored and indifferent expression, occasionally sipping a sip of tea.

Ying Qi stood behind him. He felt that His Royal Highness was not as relaxed as before, but rather nervous, unlike the mood of hospitality, but as if he was facing an enemy.

When he heard footsteps outside the room, Li Yuan's indifferent expression suddenly changed into a gentle smile, put down his teacup, and slowly got up to welcome him out.

When seeing the crown prince, Li Yuan was about to speak, but Li Sheng gave him a little help, and said with a smile, "Your cousin and I are so polite."

Li Mo was holding the red lacquer longbow in the back, and squinted at Li Yuan with the corner of his mouth tilted: "Hey, you didn't see me? What's the matter, I heard that you were under siege again as soon as I got here? Good luck. I think You're pretty good, with a lot of arms and a lot of legs."

Li Yuan clicked his tongue: "I don't have back pain when I stand and talk, I'm just a weak scholar, it's not like you can draw a bow and ride a horse, it's a fluke to escape with your life." Then he raised his hand lightly and said, "Please Come on you two."

There is a spacious elegant room outside the upper pavilion, with gold and jade inlaid on the wall, white stones as bricks, and several gold silk screens and candle shadows flickering around. The two jade screens are all from the hands of contemporary masters. The waiter was looking at the tea, and the snow leaves from Junshan Mountain were served, and the elegant tea fragrance lingered around the beam.

A row of little maids came slowly with exquisite dishes, swiftlet cups, snowflake crab buckets, small broiled silver carp, served with cake bait, broken gold cakes, candied fruit, few but fine, which shows the intention.

Li Sheng raised his lamp and said in a warm voice, "I came to visit you, so I don't want you to bother me so much."

Seeing him toast, Li Mo and Li Yuan hurriedly held up the wine cups, lowered the rim of the crown prince's cup, and Li Yuan respectfully said: "My cousin is here, so I have to welcome him with all my heart. The old man's body has just improved, and there is still no wind, otherwise it will be fine." I should come see my cousin."

The corners of Li Mo's mouth curled up, revealing two canine teeth, and jokingly said: "Brother Yuan's filial piety has arrived, and uncle will always recover. I wanted to bring you lychees, but unfortunately the journey is too far, and it will stink as soon as the ice melts. I think I brought the little leopard, but I was afraid that it would get tired and get sick again.”

Li Mo brags about his golden leopard king all day long, spoiling him like his own son, and showing off to everyone he sees.

"Fortunately, I'm timid, and I'm afraid of ferocious beasts. Why don't you behave yourself." Not to be outdone, Li Yuan flaunted, "My little Qi is very obedient."

Li Mo frowned: "Xiaoqi? Your new pet? When did I say that my little leopard is not good enough? He still dares to crawl on my bed. If he is not allowed to get on the bed, he will roll and roll. He is so clingy."

Li Yuan: "My Xiao Qi dares too."

Shadow Seven: "..."

Li Mo was particularly aggressive, and approached Li Yuan: "That's not as good as our beast fighting. I'll send a letter home now and tell them to bring the little leopard. If your little seven is as smooth as mine, the little leopard has sharp claws and claws." , I will admit defeat if I win the fight."

Li Yuan smiled contemptuously: "My Little Seven doesn't fight with animals."

Li Mo narrowed his eyes: "Who is the beast again?"

Li Yuan raised his folding fan to cover his lips, and said with a smile, "What do you think?"

The crown prince sitting beside him separated the two cousins ​​who were in dispute: "Okay, it's rare to see each other, why are we arguing again?"

When the three exchanged greetings, Ying Qi's face was pale, she stared blankly at Li Mo's face, swallowed, lowered her eyelids, lowered her head and took two steps back slightly, hiding behind Li Yuan.

Li Mo noticed the small movements here, raised his eyebrows and looked over, squinted his eyes to look at Ying Qi, and there was something in his words: "Yo, Yuan'er, this little brother...is he unfamiliar?"

Ying Qi's body trembled slightly.

To be able to call His Royal Highness brothers and sisters is from Lingnan, so he only has the status of the prince of Lingnan.

Coincidentally, leaving so many people alone, why did he offend the Prince of Lingnan?Unexpectedly, he changed his appearance, tore off that layer of fake mask, and the dandy and wicked young man on the street turned into a great Buddha.

It was the Prince of Lingnan who offended him with a cold face on the street before.

"Don't worry, old man, give me the new guards." Li Yuan didn't want to make trouble, so he waved his hand and asked Ying Qi to step down.

Xiao Qi is so fair and beautiful, don't let this bastard like Li Mo spoil her.

Seeing Li Yuan close the fair and clean young man behind him, Li Mo's eyes became even more joking and smiling: "Tsk, you are so protective... No wonder you have to put me in your eyes, it turns out that you are being favored..."

When we ran into each other on the road before, Li Mo's intention of soliciting was obvious, but this young man didn't know how to flatter him, and even faced him coldly, Li Mo remembered it clearly.

Ying Qi didn't have any affection for Li Mo at all, and was extremely unhappy to be glanced at by such a playful look like an oiran. Due to his status, he had no choice but to nod his head and said softly: "Young master, forgive me, the villain is rude."

If it weren't for His Highness Shizi's face, Ying Qi wouldn't want to see what kind of onion the Lingnan Wang Shizi is.

Li Yuan was particularly puzzled, how narrow-minded the Prince of Lingnan could get through with a guard, Ying Qi also changed his docile attitude, and his eyes showed a hint of impatience.Li Yuan glanced at Ying Qi, and gently squeezed his fingertips to comfort him.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, so stop making trouble." The prince made a round between the two, and said in a gentle voice, "Since I came to visit, don't make trouble for others."

Li Mo gave this cousin a lot of face, and drank his glass of wine with his head up, his eyes lingering on Ying Qi.

Li Yuan saw the trouble between the two of them, quietly reached the back of the chair, pushed Ying Qi, and whispered: "Go and rest for a while, don't worry about it here."

Holding the antler bow, Li Mo drank a few more glasses, resting his chin, glancing at the whispering of the master and servant from the corner of his eyes. After Ying Qi withdrew, Li Mo lost the fun and turned the wine cup boringly: "Yuan Son, drinking is so boring, let's have some fun, brother Yuan, do you want a girl or a boy?"

Li Yuan smiled: "I quit early."

"Yo, quit? This is planning to start a family." Li Mo seemed to have heard something very new, "You should too, Princess Baxia is so handsome, take advantage of it. Look at my cousin , the children are several years old, and I have hugged my eldest nephew. I don't want to start a family."

"I don't plan to start a family, and Ba Xia is annoying me too. I've seen a good one, and I don't want anything else."
