I Became the Older Brother of the Heroine in an Abusive Novel

Jun Huailang accompanied Xue Yan to kneel in the Buddhist hall all night.

In the second half of the night, he was a little sleepy, and fell asleep without knowing when he was in a trance.

In the early morning of the second day, he was awakened by the sunlight coming in from outside.He opened his eyes, and the candles in the Buddhist hall had been extinguished.The morning sunlight filled the entire hall from behind him, and also cast the elongated shadows of the two of them onto the golden Buddha's lap.

In the shadow, he was leaning on Xue Yan's shoulder.

Jun Huailang woke up and got up quickly.With his movements, an indigo cloak slipped to the ground, it was the one Concubine Shu asked him to bring last night.

Jun Huailang looked at Xue Yan sleepily, and when he spoke, his voice was a little hoarse, with a bit of a frozen nasal sound: "This clothes...?"

He didn't realize how soft his nasal voice was, but Xue Yan gave him a suspicious look.

"I'm not cold." He stretched out his hand, picked up Jun Huailang's cloak that had fallen on the ground, and stood up neatly.

Jun Huailang followed him and stood up.But after kneeling all night, his legs were already numb, and when he exerted a sudden force, he staggered, causing him to almost fall to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, Xue Yan stretched out his hand to support him.Xue Yan held the clothes with one hand, held his arm with one hand, and lifted it up, allowing Jun Huailang to stand up easily and neatly with his strength.

But this posture, as if he was leaning on Xue Yan.

Jun Huailang stood up, only to realize that there was someone else in the Buddhist hall, it was the little monk from last night who was cleaning the hall.Sensing his gaze, the little monk raised his head, lowered his brows and eyes calmly, and performed a Buddhist salute to him.

Only then did Jun Huailang realize that his actions with Xue Yan just now were a bit too intimate in the eyes of others.He also thought about how he slept on Xue Yan last night, and wondered if anyone saw him.Jun Huailang's ears couldn't help but feel a little hot, and he quickly pushed Xue Yan's hand away.

Even the two boys are too close.

Xue Yan, on the other hand, stood there calmly as if he hadn't seen anyone, quietly waiting for Jun Huailang's leg to regain consciousness, and then saw Xue Yan bowing his hand to the little monk back.

"It's windy in the Buddhist hall at night, you've worked hard as a benefactor, you must take care of your health when you go back." The young monk had a calm expression, without the slightest hint of intimacy, and exchanged greetings with him.

Jun Huailang nodded his thanks.

"Let's go." Seeing that he had almost recovered, Xue Yan bent down and picked up the food box on the ground, and walked out first.

Jun Huailang also went out with him.

When the two returned to Mingluan Palace, Fuyi was already waiting at the door.Seeing Jun Huailang coming back, he hurried forward to meet him, and said: "Your Majesty heard that the young master did not return all night, but she was worried. She already asked the slave to prepare a pot and heat the earth dragon, so that the young master should go back quickly to warm it up." Warm up!"

As he said that, he looked at Xue Yan again, smiled shyly, and said, "Your Majesty also specially ordered the servants to prepare more, and please the Fifth Highness to have breakfast together."

Jun Huailang couldn't help but raised his lips and smiled slightly.

He just knew it.Although his aunt is domineering and flamboyant, she has a rare heart.Although she was a bit awkward, she could guess her thoughts at a glance.

Jun Huailang couldn't help but glanced at Xue Yan, and was teaching Xue Yan to meet his smiling eyes.

Xue Yan never knew that someone could look so good-looking just by smiling casually, making people feel comfortable from the bottom of their hearts, like the clean and clear wind in the morning.

Originally, for him, Concubine Shu's overtures were of no use, but might bring him some trouble.But at this moment, he feels that it's okay to solve more troubles, but it's just a matter of little effort.

He hummed, and he, who has always been reticent, even said "thank you" to Fuyi in a rare way.

So early in the morning, Jun Huailang's room was extremely lively.The pot on the table was filled with fragrant mutton soup, which was simmered with mutton bones for six hours on a low fire. It was already boiling at this time, bubbling and bubbling, and the aroma and white smoke permeated the whole body. Every room is.The maids and eunuchs at the table were serving dishes, both meat and vegetables, and the table was fully set up.

Jinbao is also there.He served Xue Yan for a while, but he was emboldened by fright. At this time, he helped the maids with winks and sharp eyes, and his mouth was sweet, which amused the maids in Jun Huailang's room. He laughed, poked his forehead with his finger, and scolded him for being slippery.

As soon as Jun Huailang walked in, the pot and the earth dragon were boiling hot, and he realized that he was frozen all over.A court lady came and stuffed a hand stove for each of them, leading them to take off their coats and sit down at the dining table, only then did he finally warm up.

"Is Ling Huan awake?" Jun Huailang asked after receiving the hot tea. "If you wake up, ask her to eat with you."

He remembered that Jun Linghuan especially loved to eat this hot pot, and he also thought about yesterday, she and Xue Yan still had some misunderstandings, and it was necessary to resolve them as soon as possible to remove the grievances between the two of them.

Not long after, a court lady led Jun Linghuan in.

"Brother, how come there is a pot to eat early in the morning!" Jun Ling ran in happily, and the maid behind her hurriedly unbuttoned her coat.

Jun Linghuan saluted Jun Huailang, and saw Xue Yan sitting next to him.Even without Jun Huailang opening his mouth, Jun Linghuan felt embarrassed, blushed a little, and saluted Xue Yan.

"I'm sorry, Brother Fifth Prince." She whispered. "Ling Huan was wrong yesterday, I apologize to you!"

Jun Huailang felt relieved, and couldn't help but glance at Xue Yan, unexpectedly, Xue Yan was also looking at him.

... My sister apologizes to you, what do you think I am doing?

But the next moment, Xue Yan turned his eyes away, looked at Jun Linghuan, and said calmly: "It's okay, I didn't take it to heart."

"Really!" Jun Ling laughed happily, and said in a dignified manner. "Fifth prince brother, you are so kind, what a hero's chest can hold a whole saddle horse!"

Jun Huailang couldn't help but cast a reproachful glance at the court lady behind her: "Don't let her go, read her those street scripts, and let her learn some quack-like slang."

The maid hurriedly responded.

Jun Huailang then raised his hand to beckon her to sit down, and did not forget to tell her: "This time I suffered a loss, but I must remember it. No matter who you don't know well, don't run around alone with him."

Jun Linghuan obediently agreed.

Jun Huailang added: "There are also those who speak ill of others to you behind their backs. Don't be credulous. The kind of people who say that others are tigers, wolves, and monsters are actually the ones who have the heart of jackals."

Jun Linghuan uttered a half-understood voice, and memorized his words in his heart.

On the other hand, Jin Bao couldn't help but burst out laughing.

His Royal Highness, the eldest son, seems to be aloof, unattainable, and the one who understands etiquette the most. He did not expect to criticize and scold the second prince for the sake of his master, saying that the second prince has a wolf-hearted heart!

However, before he could finish laughing, a cold gaze shot over like a knife, his smile froze in fright, and he quickly controlled his expression politely.

It was really the Yingyingyanyan in His Royal Highness's room. Everyone was friendly, and the excitement made him relax his vigilance. He almost forgot that his master was a moody, cold-hearted Yan Luo.

Jinbao stood there like a quail for a while, then carefully looked at his master, wanting to see if he had calmed down.

However, he saw that he was sitting opposite His Royal Highness, and he hadn't looked at him for a long time. Instead, he glanced at His Highness from time to time intentionally or unintentionally, and there was a smile that couldn't be concealed in his eyes.

Jin Bao pouted secretly.

I am also happy, why are you staring at me?

-

Jun Huailang had a lively meal in his room.After the meal, the maids brought water for rinsing their mouths and hands, and served them tea.

After the Qianqiu banquet, according to the usual practice, the princes can rest for two days, so there is no need to rush to Wenhua Palace to study early.

At this moment, Diancui came.

"Ah, has His Royal Highness just had dinner?" She smiled and saluted the two of them. "That servant came by coincidence."

Jun Huailang raised his hand to make her flattened, and asked, "What's the matter with Aunt Dian Cui?"

Dian Cui smiled, and said: "The maidservant came today to look for His Highness the Fifth Prince. Last night, the empress ordered that she heard that the Fifth Prince would get up early every day to practice martial arts in the backyard, so she sent the maidservant to find some The commonly used weapons are here for him to use. The servants bought a set of weapon racks for them and put them in place. I just want to ask the Fifth Highness to go and see if there is anything missing."

Jun Huailang was a little puzzled when he heard this.The Fifth Prince was in Concubine Shu's palace, which was something that everyone would avoid. Before last night, Concubine Shu still hated him, who would talk too much in front of Concubine Shu and mention Xue Yan's trifles?

Jun Huailang still asked, "Oh, where did you put it?"

Dian Cui smiled and said: "Just put it in the vestibule, close to His Highness Fifth Highness's room, His Highness doesn't have to go around the back of the Palace every day."

Jun Huailang frowned, and glanced sideways out of the window.

Concubine Shu's Mingluan Palace is the most exquisite and unique, especially the vestibule that serves as the gate face. An exquisite and unique garden has been repaired, and a living pool has been dug specially.On weekdays, Concubine Shu's people come and go here, they have to pass here, concubines gather together, and they will also enjoy the view of the vestibule in the corridor.Suddenly there was a bulky and wide weapon rack, which looked particularly abrupt among the jewels and flowers.

Anyone who comes in can see it.

It seems that it is specially placed here for everyone to see, to tell others how much Concubine Shu loves the Fifth Prince.Leaving aside the concubines next to him, the emperor will come every now and then, so putting Xue Yan's belongings under his nose, wouldn't it make him unhappy?

And from here to the spacious backyard, it's just a detour around a main hall, it's not a long way to go, and nothing can be done.

Jun Huailang glanced at Dian Cui indiscriminately.

Ever since he lived in the palace, he felt that Diancui was not quite right, but now, the more he looked at it, the more he felt suspicious.

On the surface, she seemed to be used to making her own decisions, and just happened to dislike Xue Yan; but in fact, although she did things that were not good for Xue Yan, in the end she pointed the finger at Concubine Shu.

Jun Huailang withdrew his thoughts and looked at the weapon rack with a curious expression, but he was thinking in his heart, what excuse could he find so that Diancui could move it to the backyard without scaring the snake.

At this moment, he heard Xue Yan speak.

"Move to the backyard," he said. "I'm used to practicing in the backyard, it's spacious."

Jun Huailang looked at Xue Yan quite unexpectedly, but saw that Xue Yan's eyes seemed to glance away from him. There was clearly no emotion in those eyes, but Jun Huailang always felt that Xue Yan had seen through himself. like the idea.

Jun Huailang felt that he was thinking too much.Seeing Dian Cui's hesitant and unwilling expression, he couldn't help but smiled, and said casually: "That's right, Aunt Dian Cui, although this weapon is mighty in the front yard, if His Royal Highness accidentally breaks it Auntie's flowers and plants are going to make my aunt unhappy again."

As he spoke, he took a sip of tea, looked at Dian Cui who was speechless, and admired her expression secretly quite proudly.

Little did he know that his appearance fell into those amber eyes, like a little fox who only got what he wanted, but was arrogant and reserved, unwilling to show his emotions.
