Husband in limbo

Yu Wenqing was lying on the rocking chair, and there was a pot of brewed chrysanthemum tea and a snack plate on the small table next to him. As for who was sitting in the empty rocking chair next to him, I don't know.

Holding a teacup, looking at the blue sky, taking a sip of tea, the rocking chair is swaying slightly, making people feel that this is the leisure life that people should live.

"Today's weather is so nice." He sighed, put the quilt in his hand on the table, and began to close his eyes and meditate.The warm sun was basking in it, and the gentle majestic wind was blowing on his face, making him sleepy comfortably.Feeling someone sitting down beside him, he didn't open his eyes either.

"Master, are you asleep?" Xiao Ke asked softly from the side.

"No." There was laziness in the voice.

Hearing what he said, Xiao Ke started to drink tea and eat without much thought, and kept shaking the rocking chair and creaking. He was very happy playing by himself.

"Master, I think the weather is so good today, so I took out the quilt and clothes in your room to dry. I didn't expect that there are so many beautiful clothes in your room."

After Xiao Ke said this, Yu Wenqing also remembered the clothes that Fang Zhuo had made before, thinking that since Xiao Ke found out, he should divide the clothes today.

He opened his eyes, sat up, and asked Xiao Ke with a smile, "Why, are you hungry looking at those clothes?"

Xiao Ke immediately nodded with bright eyes, "It's so beautiful, and it's very comfortable to touch." He dared to say that because he looked carefully, and those clothes were not only his master's size.

Yu Wenqing couldn't see what Xiao Ke was thinking, so he patted his head, "You clever ghost. Since you found out, I have to reward you no matter what."

"Really! I knew you, master, are the best!"

"You go and pick it yourself, you all have a share in those clothes, and you can wear those clothes in a few days."

When Xiao Ke heard this, she immediately ran away happily, "I'll go find Xiao Wen."

The heights of the few of them are not the same, so the clothes are naturally divided into categories. When he started looking at them, he had already seen which ones he could wear, which ones Liu Yi could wear, and which ones Xiaowen could wear.Of course, there was a slight imbalance in that Sima Nanming's clothes were obviously more than theirs, and he was more imposing than theirs.Of course, he also likes his clothes very much, and he thinks they look so pretty!Therefore, the love of beauty really exists in everyone, regardless of gender.

Not to mention how excited Xiao Ke packed up his clothes with Xiao Wen, but Yu Wenqing was a little uncomfortable because not long after Xiao Ke ran away, there was another person on the rocking chair beside him.

In fact, it has been two days since that flustered morning, but no matter how he made achievements with himself, Yu Wenqing would unconsciously dodge every time he saw Sima Nanming. In fact, the most important thing was that every time he saw Sima Nanming Ming would think of the feeling of being caressed, and he couldn't help but wonder if he was too horny!

After showing an unnatural smile to Sima Nanming, Yu Wenqing closed his eyes again and rested his mind. Although he felt a little pretentious, he felt uncomfortable facing Sima Nanming at this moment.

Sima Nanming didn't seem to notice his discomfort, "Winter is coming, let's go hunting in the mountains someday." In this world, hunting is actually a way of pastime, especially when winter comes, there will be Many forms of game hunting.

Thinking of winter, he needs to prepare a lot of things. Although he can get clothes, he still wants to find substitutes in this world. The most important thing is heating. "Is the heating here in winter all burning charcoal?"

Seeing that Yu Wenqing began to talk to him normally, although he was not very clear about this question, he was able to answer one or two, "Well, charcoal is generally used for heating in winter, and some people who are in distress can only burn fire for warmth."

Yu Wenqing does not plan to burn charcoal in the room for heating in winter, as it would be unsafe if there is smoke in the room. Although the airtightness of the room in ancient times is not very good, the chance of carbon monoxide poisoning is not high.He still prefers heating methods such as kangs and fireplaces.It's just that he doesn't know both.

In fact, he has never seen the real thing, whether it is a kang or a fireplace, he has only seen it on the Internet or in movies.He just fell in love with the warm feeling of everyone chatting around the fireplace and sitting on the kang for dinner.Just imagine that when the wind and snow are howling outside, you will always have a more peaceful feeling sitting in a warm and comfortable room.

Thinking of this, Yu Wenqing felt that he should go to Fang Zhuo, and the other party might be able to find him a blueprint for building a kang or a fireplace.Although he may not be able to make it even if he has the blueprint, but there is still Liu Yi.Now in his opinion, Liu Yi is simply omnipotent.There are many things, as long as he speaks out and gives the blueprint, the other party can figure it out for him, which is simply too easy to use.At the same time, it also made him feel that the handicrafts in this world are still very developed.It's just a little strange why it is so backward in terms of eating.

In fact, Yu Wenqing's doubts are easy to explain. After all, it is about eating. Because of the food that goes into the mouth, everyone is more careful. Generally speaking, things like breaking the tradition are not done.After all, it is just the requirement of filling the stomach, as long as it is satisfied, as for the taste, no one will deliberately pursue it. Of course, these are the conditions during the war.With the reduction of wars in various countries, more stability and peace, life has become better, and people have further requirements for food. However, this cannot be changed overnight.Therefore, the time of Yu Wenqing's arrival happened to be a period of gradual change.Not too many changes, but not stubborn unwilling to common sense new things.

At this time, Yu Wenqing, who only cared about heating, thought about it and planned to do it, so he stood up, "I have something to do, I'm going back to my room." After saying hello to Sima Nanming, he left.I thought to myself, "I don't know if Fang Zhuo is here."

Seeing Yu Wenqing's leaving figure, Sima Nanming smiled, and then slowly rocked on the rocking chair, "This really is a life to enjoy."

Yu Wenqing entered the room, closed the door, and entered the space. He looked at the well-growing plants and entered the hut.

Looking at the slate, luckily, Fang Zhuo is online.

The rosy-faced Fang Zhuo waved to Yu Wenqing, "Hi, what do you want from me?"

"It's true. Winter is coming here, and the winter here is still very cold, and the only way to heat is by burning charcoal, so I want to see if I can make a kang, or a fireplace."

"The heated kang is that extremely ancient way of heating?"

Nodding, "The place I'm staying in is older, so the kang is the most suitable, but unfortunately I can't do it. Of course, the fireplace is also good."

"I read this in a book, I can help you find it."

"Really, that's great!"

Fang Zhuo smiled, "I knew you wouldn't come to me if you had nothing to do."

Yu Wenqing smiled, "You're not that busy, are you?" Thinking about it, he really didn't find Fang Zhuo but just chatted.

Hearing what Yu Wenqing said, Fang Zhuo complained, "I've been so busy recently, that guy has been very busy recently and doesn't have time to accompany me."

"You can find something for yourself to do."

"doing what?"

"What did you do before?"

"I used to do some short-term jobs around, such as waiters, or salesmen. That guy will definitely not let me do it."

Thinking about that imposing man, Yu Wenqing felt that he was a domineering man, how could he be willing to let his lover do that kind of hard work.

"So what do you like to do?"

Fang Zhuo thought for a while, "I like to eat, and I also like to cook."

Although Yu Wenqing also cooks food, he can't say he likes it. It's just that he has to cook every day. Although he can do it, he can't say he likes it.

"In this case, you can open a small restaurant."

"Open a restaurant..." Fang Zhuo was lost in thought, but it was obvious that this suggestion was very tempting to him.

After Fang Zhuo finished thinking, his smile became brighter, "This is good, let me try it? Although opening a restaurant is expensive, I still have some savings. Speaking of which, it is also thanks to your jadeite."

Yu Wenqing smiled, "It's good that you have a goal."

"Wait a minute, I'll check the information about the kang and fireplace for you."

"Remember that the most important thing is to make pictures."

"Know it."

After getting the blueprint, Yu Wenqing left the space contentedly when Fang Zhuo said in a hurry that he would go to his man to help him learn how to open a restaurant.

Of course, he couldn't give Liu Yi the drawings directly, and he needed to copy them again.

When Yu Wenqing went out to find someone, he saw Xiao Ke and the others excitedly talking together, he walked over, and they immediately stood up and saluted.

Yu Wenqing waved his hands and asked them to sit down, and he also sat down, "What are you guys doing, why are you so happy."

Xiao Ke, "It's not your clothes, master. We have never seen such beautiful clothes. Xiao Wen said that he wants to make some clothes like this."

Seeing that the few people didn't intend to ask me where the clothes came from, they took out the blueprint, "Liu Yi, this thing can be used to keep warm in winter, see if you can make it."

"Is this a bed?" Xiao Ke and Xiao Wen moved over curiously.

"Well, this is called a kang. Burning firewood can heat up the bed, which is much better in winter."

"It's so powerful. With this kind of bed, don't you have to worry about the cold in winter?"

"Well, if you build a bigger one, you can still play on it, and it won't freeze."

When passing by northward, I heard cheerful calls, and came over curiously.

Xiao Ke immediately showed him the drawing, "This is a kang, a bed that gets hot, haven't you seen it before?" The voice was not to mention very proud.

"Really? How is he hot?" Xiang Bei was very interested.

Yu Wenqing saw that they were all interested, so he said to Liu Yi, "Try to study it." He pointed to the four houses facing the backyard, "I plan to have all four rooms on the kang, you Let’s try it first, there are still some days before winter, so we can take this opportunity to study it thoroughly.”

Liu Yi was also very excited looking at the drawings in his hand. His father is an old artist. If it wasn't for an accident at home, he wouldn't have to go to the palace to suffer because of his skills. But seeing Xiao Ke because of this, he felt that be lucky.

Liu Yi likes to study these crafts since he was a child. He likes this kind of bed that can be heated even more. If this kang can really be heated by burning wood, at least many people will not be frozen to death.It can be more comfortable in winter.

Sima Nanming looked at the sets of clothes on the bed, and Xiang Nan who was standing beside him frowned in surprise.

"Master, this dress... It is impossible for our Xiangyun Empire to make it. I have never seen such a fabric. Waiter Yuwen..."

Sima Nanming knew what Xiang Nan was worried about, "I know he has a secret, as long as he knows that he won't do us any harm."

"Master is sure?"

In fact, Sima Nanming didn't have any evidence to prove his conjecture. He felt that Yu Wenqing was harmless to him, but he had a very clear feeling, "Don't worry."

Xiang Nan heard that since Sima Nanming said so, he didn't mention it anymore.

After the matter of the kang bed was handed over to Liu Yi, Yu Wenqing never asked about it. It's not that he was irresponsible, but that he specialized in surgery. If Liu Yi really had any questions to ask him, he couldn't answer them. What substantive suggestions does he have.

A few days later, when Yu Wenqing saw Sima Nanming again, he no longer felt uncomfortable. Seeing that Sima Nanming never mentioned why he avoided him, he felt that he was a little too hypocritical.Thinking that everyone is a man, it doesn't matter if something goes wrong. Even if I really like men, it doesn't mean that I like everyone.

On this day, the two were playing chess, and Xiao Ke ran over excitedly, "Master, master, we found a secret passage!"

"Secret way?" Yu Wenqing was also very interested in listening, "Go, go and have a look." After talking to Sima Nanming, he followed Xiao Ke and left.

Sima Nanming thoughtfully followed behind them.

The two entered the room where the secret passage was found. It turned out that the secret passage was in one of the four rooms.The secret passageway was found under the bed. If they didn't want to build a kang bed, there would be absolutely no chance of finding it.

At this time, there was thunder and rain in the room, and I happened to go out today, so it was all right.

Yu Wenqing walked to the secret passage and took a look inside. It was not like the convenient design with a ladder on TV, but a hole more than two meters high.

Sima Nanming, "This secret way?"

Xiang Nan, "I don't know what's going on inside, I'll go down and check."

Xiang Bei quickly said, "I'll go too."

"You stay." Xiang Nan asked him to stay and protect Sima Nanming.

Xiang Bei's face was ugly.

Yu Wenqing stopped Xiangnan who wanted to go straight down, and said to Xiaowen, "Go to that lamp." He said to Xiangnan, "Let's try it first."

He tried it with a lighted oil lamp, put it in the hole, and it was still bright, so he was relieved.

"Be careful."

Xiang Nan nodded, and Xiang Bei watched him go down the secret passage with some worry.

In fact, Yu Wenqing did not agree to go south to investigate. In his opinion, there was no need to take risks. However, Sima Nanming was their master, so it was hard for him to say anything. They could only wait anxiously.

It had been more than two hours since Xiang Nan came back, and they were relieved to see that he was safe and sound.Everyone was curious about what was in the secret passage.

Xiang Nan glanced at Sima Nanming, seeing that the other party didn't express anything, he reported: "The secret road is very safe, and the other exit is in a woodshed in a courtyard in the west city. I took a look, and that courtyard has fallen into disrepair, nothing is wrong." People live."

Sima Nanming nodded, but Yu Wenqing was very pleasantly surprised after hearing that there was a secret passage leading to the outside of the palace, "So, we can go out to play through the secret passage in the future." In fact, he was quite curious about the outside world.After all, he hasn't really seen the world yet.

After Yu Wenqing said this, except Sima Nanming's master and servant, everyone else's eyes lit up.And Liu Yi looked at Sima Nanming worriedly, and was relieved to see that he was not only not angry, but also nodded in agreement.After all, they were all thrown into the cold palace by the emperor, and they wanted to sneak out of the palace, which was a great sin.

"Xiangnan, go and buy that yard."

Xiang Nan nodded.

"Master, let's go out to play tomorrow. I'm tired of staying in the palace for so long." Xiao Ke suggested with bright eyes.

Yu Wenqing thought about it for a while, and it's okay to go out tomorrow, but, "I won't take you with me tomorrow, I'll go out to see the situation first."

"Master..." Xiao Ke froze instantly.

Struggling, "Master, let me go."

Yu Wenqing patted Xiao Ke's head, "Be good, be obedient, I will take you next time. You see how weird Xiao Wen is, learn more from him."

Xiaowen looked at Xiaoke and smiled, Xiaoke hugged Xiaowen, "Xiaowen, let's let the master take us too."

Xiao Wenxue patted Xiao Ke's head in Yu Wenqing's way, "Good boy, let's go next time." Although he also wanted to go out of the palace to have a look, but this time is still the same next time.

Xiao Ke felt powerless after hearing Xiao Wen's words.

At night, by candlelight.

Yu Wenqing lay on the bed with his hands open, "Tell me, how come there are secret passages in this palace?" In his opinion, every secret passage has a story.

Sima Nanming, who was making a chess piece, paused when he heard his question, and dropped the chess piece on the board.Then he said in a voice that seemed to be telling a story: "It is said that the former emperor had another concubine that he loved very much. The emperor was infatuated. In a huge harem, there was only that concubine in his mind. Unfortunately, that concubine had someone else in his heart. He No matter how hard you try, you can't get the emotional response from the other party."

"Since that man has someone in his heart, why did he still enter the palace?" Yu Wenqing dragged his head and looked at Sima Nanming and asked.

Sima Nanming moved the chessboard away, and said to Yu Wenqing, "I don't know the specific reason, I only know that it was an accident that the man entered the palace."

"And then? He was thrown into the cold palace?"

"Well. He has all kinds of favors and is naturally jealous. One concubine framed him, saying that he had an affair with a guard in the palace. The emperor threw him into the cold palace in a fit of anger, and the guard also He was executed. When the emperor's anger dissipated, he found that there was something strange about it, and asked people to investigate and found that the male concubine was innocent. He wanted to take him out of the cold palace, but unfortunately the person refused to die, so the emperor had to compromise. And the guard who was executed was said to be a good friend of the male concubine, and he no longer wanted to see the emperor since then. Therefore, the man lived in the cold palace for five years, and disappeared suddenly after five years. From now on, it should be Because of that secret passage."

Yu Wenqing was silent for a while, "That male concubine should be very guilty, my friend died because of him. In fact, think about it, if it were me, I would not be able to accept the love of that emperor, even if there is no such thing as that friend, even if there is no one else in my heart." After all, Dijun's harem is too big, and there are too many intrigues. Being favored will only make him a target of public criticism. All he relies on is Dijun's illusory love, who knows if it will change. And more importantly, if If you really like it, who would be willing to share your lover with others."

Sima Nanming looked at Yu Wenqing, who had misty eyes, with complex eyes, he didn't expect the other party to think this way.

Seeing Sima Nanming looking at him with complicated eyes, there were emotions that he couldn't understand. Thinking of his identity as a waiter, Yu Wenqing laughed a few times. The other party would not suspect that he wanted to be favored by the current emperor alone. Embarrassed.

"Then... I'll go to the room first, and I have to get up early tomorrow." After speaking, she got off the bed and left in a hurry.

Sima Nanming looked at Yu Wenqing leaving in a hurry, he didn't expect Yu Wenqing to have such an idea, it was such an honor to be loved by the emperor in the eyes of others, and the other party was unwilling to accept it.He felt a little tricky, and it was a little different from his plan.He needs to think about it.
