homecoming

When Feng Chenying returned to Yuanfei Courtyard, Tang Fei was sitting in the atrium of the garden waiting for him. There was a jug of wine on the stone table. It seemed that he had been waiting for him for a long time.

"I'm back." Tang Fei put down the wine glass in his hand and looked at Feng Chenying indifferently.Feng Chenying slightly raised the corners of her mouth and walked towards him, bent down and took a sip of the wine in his hand, then frowned, and said, "It's cold? Why don't you ask someone to warm it up? Come——hmm!" Before that "person" Chen Ying could say anything, Tang Fei gagged her mouth with a cup.

"Who is free to serve you in the middle of the night?" Tang Fei rolled his eyes at Feng Chenying, then withdrew his hand and said angrily, "Would you like to drink?"

"I love to drink!" Feng Chenying grabbed Tang Fei's hand, then licked it along the rim of the cup, stared into his eyes and said hoarsely, "As long as it is fed by you, I love to drink it."

The corner of Tang Fei's mouth twitched, he broke away from Feng Chenying's hand and said, "Have you eaten yet?"

Feng Chenying smiled nonchalantly, sat down beside Tang Fei and said, "I ate a little, but I'm still hungry." There was a celebration banquet in the palace tonight, and a make-up banquet for Qin Yan's wedding that night was held. In the evening, apart from the noisy high-spirited talk and disturbing music and singing and dancing, he has no appetite to eat at all.Suppressing the displeasure in his heart and laughing with those hypocritical high-ranking officials, he hurried back in the middle of the night. As soon as he came back, he saw Tang Fei waiting for him, and the irritability in his heart seemed to disappear at that moment.Even Feng Chenying found it inexplicable to feel at ease suddenly.

Tang Fei glanced at him, then got up and went to the small kitchen in Yuanfei Courtyard.

Ten minutes later, Tang Fei came back with a tray, on which were two soft-boiled eggs and a bowl of vermicelli in clear soup with chopped green onions.

Feng Chenying looked at the things in the tray, then looked at Tang Fei with surprise and emotion and said, "Is this made for me?"

Tang Fei turned his head unnaturally, and said, "Uh...cough cough, I will fry an egg and make noodles or something. Don't count on me for the rest." After finishing speaking, two suspicious words A red cloud floated up her cheeks, Feng Chenying's heart trembled with that rare shy and awkward look, as if something exploded in her heart, it was sweet and warm, and there was also a little bit of satisfaction.

"No, that's good." Feng Chenying said softly, picked up the chopsticks at hand, and chewed slowly, as if this ordinary food that couldn't be more ordinary was the most delicious delicacy in the world.But in fact, after a long, long time, Feng Chenying was still nostalgic for this ordinary delicacy, and would never forget it, but at that time, Tang Fei would never wash his hands and make soup for him again.

But at this moment, one of them was eating warm light noodle soup and sweet soft-boiled eggs, with a hint of satisfaction hanging from the corners of his mouth.The other person was sitting sideways on the stone bench, drinking while looking at the person opposite, the corners of his mouth also outlined a curved arc.In the silver frost all over the courtyard, the warmth and tranquility are lingering between the two.

That night, Tang Fei, who was drinking alone, was drunk, and Feng Chenying, who hadn't drunk much, was also drunk, drunk.Therefore, when Tang Fei said "Feng Chenying, no matter what the result is, I hope you can let He Xi go", Feng Chenying replied "Yes".

On the [-]th of the first month, the bloodbathed Cotton Brocade City finally returned to its former peace and hustle and bustle.That night blood flowed into rivers and corpses were strewn across the fields, and in just a few days, even remnants of snow could not be seen on the street.Even the water in the moat is much cleaner than before.These are cleaned deliberately, with more coldness and less market atmosphere.

The street is as bustling as ever, with pedestrians walking side by side.However, the crowds on the street are no longer chattering and laughing wantonly, and the street vendors are not as hard-working as they used to be. Restaurants and restaurants are no longer full of people, and they are all talking in low voices with twinkling eyes.There are also large groups of patrolling soldiers and horses on the street. Everywhere they go, the people there will always quiet down in a tacit understanding. Only then did he let out a foul breath, and hurried home with his things.I'm afraid that if someone is not careful, they will be said to be Cheng Wang's rebellious party, and then the whole family will die.

The sky above Cotton Brocade City seems to be still floating with the blood mist that did not dissipate that night, and the full name is still shrouded in darkness. Still brewing the first rain of spring.

Tang Fei walked on the familiar Mianjin Street, looked at the lifeless crowd, and shook his head slightly.He didn't know how brutal the suppression was on the night of Fifteenth, but the rotten smell that hadn't dissipated in the air proved that that night was a purgatory on earth.He was walking towards the Prince's Mansion, and when he heard that He Xi had woken up, he wanted to take a look no matter what.

You'er followed Tang Fei step by step, and at the same time there was Mo Zhu who had always disliked Tang Fei.He followed Feng Chenying's order to protect Tang Fei. He didn't dare to disobey the pavilion master's order, so he had to follow along reluctantly.

"Drive! Drive!" A carriage emerged from the corner of the street and came galloping.

You'er and Mo Zhu had sharp eyes and quick hands, and each took Tang Fei's arms and brought him to a safe place.

Mo Zhu's heart burst into flames, and he was about to swear, but after seeing the carriage clearly, he swallowed the swear words back, and then subconsciously looked at Tang Fei.That is the carriage of Fengxi Pavilion!And through the curtains lifted by the wind, he could clearly see that his Pavilion Master and the King Xian were hugging each other!

Tang Fei's expression was a little dazed, he stared blankly at his toes, as if he didn't see the scene just now.

You'er panicked, pulled Tang Fei nervously and said, "My lord!"

"What's the matter?" Tang Fei was startled by You'er, and asked after regaining his composure.

"Uh, uh...it's nothing, I just want to ask if you are tired, why don't we find a place to rest!" You'er said hurriedly.

"How long have we been out?" Tang Fei glanced at You'er suspiciously, "I'm not tired, let's hurry up, there is still some distance from here to the Prince's Mansion." After speaking, he turned around and continued towards the Prince's Mansion go.

Mo Zhu bit her lip, and when she was about to say something, You'er pinched her hard, stared at him and said in a low voice, "Shut up!" Then she caught up with Tang Fei.Mo Zhu rubbed his nose, what are you doing, he just wanted to suggest a different way to go, the direction the Lord is going to should be entering the palace, it's right next to the Prince's Mansion, maybe you will meet him and you will be unable to hide when you want to !Curling his lips, Mo Zhu also followed.

In fact, Tang Fei had a panoramic view of the scene just now.It's just that he didn't know what to say, and he didn't know why he felt angry at that moment, so he could only cover up his emotions with his usual indifference.

Gently shaking his head, Tang Fei suppressed the inexplicable anger in his heart. It was He Xi who should be worried now.

Prince's Mansion.

"His Royal Highness, there is a visitor!" The butler hurried to the hall, where Qin Yi and Chunyu Jue were playing chess.

Is there anyone still visiting the Prince's Mansion at this time?Qin Yi didn't raise his head, thinking about how to move the next move, and asked nonchalantly, "Who?"

"Uh, he said his name is Tang Fei, the young master who came blindfolded that night." The housekeeper carefully reminded Qin Yi as if he was afraid that Qin Yi would not remember.

Qin Yi held his hand for a while, but his face did not show too much emotion. He looked at the chessboard intently, and then dropped the chess piece in his hand.Chunyu Jue raised his eyes to look at Qin Yi, he deftly turned the chess piece he was obsessed with between his fingers, then threw the chess piece back into the chess box, and said, "I'm not in the mood today, I won't play anymore." The waiter put the chessboard away intact, and will play again another day.In the Prince's Mansion, the servants have become accustomed to equating Chunyu Jue's orders with Qin Yi's orders. The servant saw that Qin Yi not only did not object but looked at Chunyu Jue helplessly, so he put away the chessboard wisely.

"Please come in." Qin Yi waved to the housekeeper helplessly.

"But Your Highness, I don't know if I should say something or not." The butler did not obey orders, but bowed.

"Since when have you hesitated to speak?" Qin Yi raised the corner of his mouth, "Say."

"This Tang Fei is from Fengxi Pavilion." Although the old housekeeper is over sixty years old, he speaks in a strong voice, "He has visited the Prince's Mansion again and again and it is at such an extraordinary time. I am afraid that the old slave is another Have a plan."

"Him? What can he picture?" Qin Yi said amusedly, "At most, it's just a picture of one person. Don't worry too much about the old housekeeper, just let him in."

"Your Highness!"

"Okay, let him in." Qin Yi waved his hand impatiently, signaling that he didn't need to say any more.

The old housekeeper sighed and said, "Old servant obeys."

Qin Yi did not meet Tang Fei, but directly sent someone to take him to the courtyard where He Xi lived.

"Why did you ask him to see Tang Fei?" When Tang Fei's figure disappeared into He Xi's small courtyard, Chunyu Jue walked out from the shadows and asked Qin Yi who was on the side.

"Because He Xi wanted to see him, and without Tang Fei, he would have..." Qin Yi paused, "It should be repaying He Xi." He took Chunyu Jue's hand and left.

"You two wait here." Tang Fei left the words and entered the room. You'er and Mo Zhu looked at each other, and they both saw the hesitation in each other's eyes.

"Follow or not?" Mo Zhu asked You'er in embarrassment.

"Young master, since you don't want us to follow, you can wait here. This is the Prince's Mansion. Nothing will happen." You'er glanced at the closed door sadly, then turned around and sat down at the place closest to the door.Mo Zhu looked at You'er angrily, stomped his feet unwillingly, walked to You'er and sat down beside You'er.

Tang Fei walked lightly into the bedroom. He Xi leaned against the head of the bed and fell asleep, holding a half-turned book in his hand. The thick quilt covered his waist, because the thick pajamas covered his body. The wounds on his body and Qingyi's face was as pale as paper and bloodless, which proved that he had been fatally wounded not long ago.

Slowly pacing to He Xi's bedside, Tang Fei brushed back the soft long hair that covered He Xi's forehead with some distress, his eyes were full of guilt and distress.He once hurt Chen Chen recklessly, and he didn't regret it until he came to this inexplicable world.So he wanted to protect He Xi, at least to make him less hurt, but unfortunately he still...

"Alas..." Tang Fei sighed as he gently caressed He Xi's pale cheek with his fingers.

Putting away his hands, Tang Fei straightened up.He didn't intend to wake He Xi up, as long as he saw that he was fine.Just as he turned around, a cold hand grabbed his hand.

"Don't go..." The slightly weak voice was filled with humble pleas.

Tang Fei's heart tightened, and he turned around to see He Xi's eyes were slightly red, looking at him eagerly.

"Tang Fei, don't go..." He Xi's voice trembled, she held Tang Fei's hand tightly as if he would leave suddenly.

"I won't go." Tang Fei clasped his fingers with He Xi, stepped forward and squatted in front of He Xi, stretched out his other hand to caress his cheek and said softly, "He Xi, I won't go."

"Woo..." As soon as Tang Fei finished speaking, He Xi burst into tears, scalding Tang Fei's fingertips and his heart. "I thought I'd never see you again..."

"No." Tang Fei said firmly, wiping the tears off his face and said in a deep voice, "Did you forget our agreement? We made an appointment to go back to your hometown and I know you won't just leave me. "

"No," He Xi shook her head while weeping, "I'm afraid I'm going to break my promise..."

"Trust me!" Tang Fei said firmly, "Feng Chenying has promised me that no matter what the result is, he will let you go. There will be no such thing happening again, He Xi, it will never happen again."

He Xi was startled, looked at Tang Fei with tears in his eyes, and murmured as if he couldn't believe it: "You, went to beg Feng Chenying? Because of me, you went to beg Feng Chenying again, right?"

"I think it's worth it." Tang Fei lowered his head and reached out to help He Xi pull the quilt that was about to slip.

It's worth it... Tang Fei said that it's worth it for him... He Xi bit his lower lip to suppress his excitement. He was afraid that he would cry bitterly, and even more afraid that he would ignore Everything took Tang Fei away from this place of right and wrong, and he would never come back again!

"What's the matter?" Tang Fei raised his head and saw He Xi's forbearance and asked worriedly. Seeing He Xi's already bitten white lower lip, he stretched out his hand to help it up, rubbed it lightly, and said, "What are you doing?" It’s already full of injuries and you want to make some more wounds to make me worry?” In the past, every time he was wronged by him, Chen Chen also liked to bite his lower lip like this. His forbearance and stubbornness always made him feel sad Unknowingly, she softened, and then kissed him lightly on the place where he had bitten the teeth marks, expressing his apology for saying the wrong thing.At that time, Chen Chen would smile as brightly and warmly as the sun in winter, as if the pain in his heart would disappear at once, always making Tang Fei's heart beat faster for a few seconds unconsciously.

Fortunately, even though the face in front of him was [-]% similar to Chen Chen, Tang Fei still didn't think he could kiss He Xi as Chen Chen.Knowing that it was impolite and ambiguous for him to do so, Tang Fei quickly put his hands behind his back, stood up straight and coughed unnaturally: "Hey, don't want your own lips in the future, just tell me if you don't like it. "

He Xi caressed the place Tang Fei touched in a daze. The warmth of his fingertips made his pale lips feel hot, and the throbbing in his heart became more intense.He likes Tang Fei, no, it should be love.He fell in love with Tang Fei. From a long time ago, when he wanted to get out, he found that he couldn't get out.

"Tang Fei..."

Tang Fei was thinking about what excuse he should use to explain his behavior just now, when he suddenly heard He Xi calling him with deep nostalgia.As soon as she raised her head, He Xi had already knelt on the bed and straightened her body, hugged his neck tightly, and pressed her cool lips against her own.

Tang Fei's head exploded, his mind went blank and he couldn't think of anything, he just instinctively wanted to push him away.It's a pity that just as he touched He Xi, he suddenly remembered - He Xi was seriously injured, so he couldn't push him away!
