Born of Worry

As the new year is approaching, every household is starting to prepare for the new year, and Weiyang City is no exception.Li Xian also gave the ministers the annual leave early, so he didn't have to go to court for a while, and he had so much free time, he was really not used to it.

However, a holiday does not mean doing nothing. Among the six departments, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Punishment basically do not rest. As the exam questions for the next spring exam are being finalized, the Ministry of Industry is relatively busy, and they have to work overtime for a few more days to observe the trend of drought and flood this year at any time.

After all the work was sent out, Li Xian himself had nothing to do. The ministers were all on vacation, and few of them handed him paperwork. Lin Shangshu, who is usually the most diligent, was also busy with his grandson-in-law. Gossip.

So...he spends more time alone with Mo Wen every day, which means...well, you understand.

Li Ye looked at his younger brother who was lying in bed and refused to get up, and raised his hand to caress his forehead: "You, you, you! Are you still an emperor?! Look at you now, how dignified you are!"

"Hmph..." Li Xian hummed twice, then wrapped the quilt again,

"Get up quickly! What are you doing lying on the bed!"

Li Xian rolled twice, "I don't..."

Li Ye immediately stared, put his hips on his hips and said, "Do you still dare to say no?! Will you listen to your third brother!"

"listen……"

"Then I can't afford it?!"

"don't want……"

Li Ye was about to be annoyed, so he slapped his ass, "Stinky boy! Tell me, how long did you get tired of that stupid dragon last night?!"

"Oh, don't hit me! Third brother, I was wrong!"

Li Ye persisted, "Are you wrong? How old are you this year? Tell yourself! How old are you..."

"I'm eighteen..." Li Xian continued to hum, "I'm not young anymore..."

"What's so good about that stupid dragon?!"

Li Ye said "Stupid Dragon" here, but the "Stupid Dragon" came over there.Mo Wen glanced at him, ignored him, and said to Li Xian, "It's time to get up."

"Oh..." Li Xian was reluctant, but still got up and put on his clothes.Li Ye became angry in an instant, and said, "Damn it, you get up when he asks you to get up, but you can't live if I make you get up? Am I still your third brother?!"

"Yes..." Li Xian obviously lacked confidence, "Well... third brother, don't be angry, why don't we have breakfast together?"

"What breakfast! What time is it, let's have lunch!"

Li Xian pouted.

Mo Wen pushed him to sit in front of the vanity mirror, picked up the comb to comb his hair.He didn't know when he developed the habit of combing Li Xian's hair. Anyway, he felt uncomfortable when a court lady touched Li Xian, and this feeling became more and more intense recently, so he simply took care of all the affairs by himself. Changing clothes and even cooking are all easy.

Li Xian himself didn't realize that Mo Wen's possessiveness was getting stronger day by day. On the contrary, he liked this way of life quite a bit. He didn't notice at all that he was gone forever on the road of cutting his sleeves...

Mo Wen held Li Xian's hair and didn't want to let it go. A black hair ran through the teeth of the comb, as soft as a fine brocade. Mo Wen couldn't help but kissed the top of his hair, which made Li Xian blush.

"Mo Wen..." Li Xian looked at the man behind him through the bronze mirror, "Third Brother is still watching... Is it good for us to just leave him alone?"

A certain dragon didn't change his expression, "What are you afraid of, he's just here for a meal, why don't you ask him to wait for a while?"

"Uh...why is he here to eat?"

"Because Lin Ruxuan went to visit your eldest brother's house early this morning."

"How did you know……"

"How many things in the palace can you hide from me?"

Li Xian looked at himself in the mirror again, and said, "Come on, it's too troublesome to untangle."

"Okay." Mo Wen took a white jade hairpin from the box on the table, tied up his hair, and secured it with the hairpin.He heard Li Ye shout: "Hey, are you all well? Do you want to eat? I'm almost starving to death."

"Okay, okay." Li Xian couldn't help laughing, thinking that the third brother really came to eat.

Mo Wen kissed him on the forehead again, "Go wash up, I'll bring lunch."

"Ah."

Li Xian was washing his face here, while Li Ye complained over there: "Really, don't you get tired of being crooked every day?"

"If it wasn't for General Lin's absence, you would have come to my place? Aren't you getting tired of him every day?"

Li Ye gave a "cut" and said disdainfully: "You pull it down, he is a very busy person, running around or running around, and finally he went to see his brother to learn martial arts when he was free, how long did he take me seriously."

"Third brother, I think you are dissatisfied with your desires?"

Li Ye frowned, "Get out, you're the one who wants to be dissatisfied!" After a pause, "Don't talk about it, I still have to talk about it, can you two restrain yourself? How old are you this year? this is not good."

"Third brother!" Li Xian blushed again, "Do you really think that we do something every day?"

"Otherwise? The two of you may simply sleep? Ghost letter."

Li Xian was about to defend himself, when he turned his head and saw Mo Wen walking in with lunch, the latter glanced at Li Ye, and said, "Don't talk so much nonsense when you're here to eat, hurry up and leave after eating."

"Hey you stupid dragon..."

Mo Wen set the table and chopsticks, served the three of them with rice, brought a bowl of steamed pork with rice noodles, a plate of stir-fried winter bamboo shoots with vegetables, and a few side dishes, and sat down next to Li Xian.

Li Ye looked at the two of them, sighed deeply, moved a chair and sat down opposite them, and began to eat in silence.

The so-called... well, cannibals are soft-mouthed, but short-handed...

"Hey, winter bamboo shoots... do we have this thing here? Hey Xiaoxian, don't tell me this dish is delicious... Which chef made it? It doesn't seem to have this taste before... Maybe you changed it again your cook?"

Li Xian bit his chopsticks, glanced at Mo Wen, and said awkwardly, "Uh... this, yes..."

Li Ye was about to poach his wall, "Then you...how about lending me a few days? Go to my place and make a few meals? I haven't eaten such delicious food for a long time since my second brother finished the banquet last time." Food is ready."

"This...I'm afraid you have to ask him yourself..."

Li Xian looked at Mo Wen again, and Mo Wen took a piece of meat out of the steamed pork and put it into his bowl, glanced at Li Ye, and said, "You're dreaming."

"Hey, are you sick?" Li Ye angrily said, "I'm fucking asking Xiao Xian, it's none of your business?"

"My meal is only for Xiao Xian, so it's already doing you a favor by asking you to have a meal today."

"I'm fucking..." Li Ye seemed to have come back to his senses suddenly, and after a long time of stunned, he said in disbelief, "No, you mean... these dishes... you made them?"

"Or you did it?"

Li Xian looked at his third brother's deflated appearance, and sniggered unkindly, but saw that the other party suddenly snatched all the tamales from the whole night.

"Hey! What are you doing?"

"Since you can only eat one meal, of course you have to eat more!"

"..."

Li Ye was stared at by Mo Wen for a long time, and then he pushed the bowl back with a look of disgust, and said, "Okay, let's see what you pick, give it to your little Xian."

The few people finally finished the meal quietly. After Li Ye left, Li Xian couldn't help asking Mo, "What are you doing? My third brother is not a bad person. What's wrong with giving him a meal? Isn't it him?" Have you ever treated you lightly before, you are holding grudges too much..."

"Little Xian!"

Li Xian looked at his staring eyes, snickered, and straightened his expression, "Ah, well, I'll just leave it alone..."

Mo Wen went to bring another bowl of white fungus and lotus seed soup, put it in front of Li Xian, and tapped him on the forehead, "I shouldn't have given it to you."

"Don't... good little Mo, I was wrong!"

"Eat quickly, it will be cold in a while."

After Li Xian finished eating the soup, he asked Mo to sit on the recliner, nestled in his arms, and said, "Tomorrow is Laba, do you want to make Laba porridge for me?"

"What? Tired of lotus seed soup?"

"Ah... no, just ask if you can do it."

"What do you say?"

"Hey," Li Xian smirked twice, "After Laba, it's New Years...the days go by so fast. Hey, let's count the days... Is my sister-in-law about to give birth?"

"There is still a month."

Li Xian counted with his fingers, "One month... She would be interesting if it happened on New Year's Eve. Doesn't nephew Yichen want to be born on the same day as me?"

"You want him to have the same birthday as you?"

"That's not true, but this kind of thing is not up to me to decide. If it's really the same day...it's pretty good, isn't it?"

Mo Wen was not happy, and became serious, "I don't agree."

"what?"

"I don't agree with him having the same birthday as you."

Li Xian blinked, not quite understanding: "Why?"

Mo Wen was serious: "Your birthday is unique. Your birthday can only be your birthday. I don't allow others to celebrate it with you."

"You are really..." Li Xian blushed a little, thought for a while, and said, "I heard from my mother that I was born in the middle of the night on New Year's Eve. It seems that there is less than an hour before the first day of the new year. My mother originally I thought about it and endured it, until the first day of the new year, the new year will have a good omen, I didn't expect that I would not live up to my expectations and rush out, so I caught up with the end of the previous year."

Mo Wen seldom listened to him talk about his mother, so he didn't have the heart to interrupt. Li Xian continued: "But after thinking about it, I felt relieved. It seems pretty good that everyone in the world keeps watch for me, doesn't it? Mo Wen, You said... am I destined to be an emperor since I was born?"

"Little Xian..."

"Ok?"

"It's nothing."

"Oh……"
