Make peace with the Lord of the Prairie

He Zexi asked puzzledly, "How was last night?"

Ming Heng almost jumped up, and couldn't help raising his volume: "Don't say you forgot again!"

He Zexi became more and more confused: "What happened last night? Have we met?"

The corners of Mingheng's mouth drooped instantly. For a moment, complex emotions such as grievance, anger, and disappointment mixed together in his heart. He was so sad that he couldn't even utter a word of accusation, but his eyes became more and more resentful, as if watching a person who mentioned A heartless man who turns his face on the pants and refuses to recognize anyone.

He Zexi's back felt chills after being watched by him, and he felt guilty for no reason even though he had done nothing.Although the king's heart is unpredictable, but the king's parents and children are not too lenient. They were fine at first, but when they got angry, they became angry.

He Zexi sighed softly in his heart, although he didn't know what he was upset about, but at present, it seems that apologizing is the best policy.After thinking about it, He Zexi stood up and saluted respectfully, and said sincerely: "Zexi's slip of the tongue has offended His Highness, and please His Highness to make amends."

Unexpectedly, Ming Heng became more angry, stared at him angrily for a long time, suddenly let out an angry "hum", shook his sleeves and left.

The movement here attracted the attention of a group of people who were having fun around the wine table. Everyone stared blankly at Ming Heng leaving angrily. It took a while to recover, and they asked He Zexi in one go.But the official chased after him as early as the first time.

"How did the sixth prince leave?"

"Your Highness seems to be angry."

"Zexi, what did you do to make His Highness so angry?"

He Zexi was one head and two big, unable to lean against the railing. He also wanted to know what he had done.

After a while, Guan Ze came back alone, and everyone asked him where the sixth prince was.

The officer took a sip of his wine and said, "He said he wanted to wander around, don't worry about him, he'll be back later."

Only then did everyone breathe a sigh of relief, and continued with the interrupted drinking session.

Guan didn't go over, but instead sat down beside He Zexi, and asked him quietly: "What's the matter with you and Ming Heng? Are you having trouble? Did he annoy you again?"

He Zexi shook his head and remained silent.Xiaoliu, who had been standing by the side all the time, couldn't help being wronged for his young master when he saw everything, and couldn't help complaining to the official: "Your highness, you don't know, your highness has been targeting my young master for some reason these past two days, and he doesn't agree with me at all." Just get angry and leave, my son said nothing is right. Obviously my son didn't say anything at all..."

He Zexi stopped Xiaoliu's words with a look.

"Ming Heng flirted with you?" The official was surprised, "No way, that guy is willing to lose his temper with you? Didn't he always talk about you as his savior? He almost treated you like a Bodhisattva." Get up, are you willing to be angry with you?"

He Zexi's expression changed slightly when he heard the word savior, but he didn't say anything in the end.

On the contrary, Xiaoliu looked at his young master suspiciously, and asked the official: "Savior? The official said that my young master is the savior of His Highness the Sixth Highness?"

He Zexi opened his mouth and was about to stop him, but the official said a step ahead: "Yes, your son once jumped into the icy lake in the cold winter months to save the sixth prince who was drowning."

"My son jumped into the lake to save people? It's impossible!" Xiaoliu said without hesitation, "My son doesn't know how to swim at all! How can he go into the water to save people? Besides, my son is afraid of the cold, so he doesn't even touch cold water in winter."

The officer seemed to have found a companion, and agreed: "That's right! I said the same thing, but Ming Heng is so sure! Your son doesn't deny it either!"

Xiaoliu looked at his young master in shock, wondering why the young master didn't deny it, but suddenly saw his young master's warning eyes, and suddenly remembered the master who shared the same face with his master, and immediately understood what happened He hurriedly changed his words: "Cough... it seems that there is such a thing. After many years, the servant missed it."

The official couldn't help raising his voice: "You said just now that your son is afraid of the cold and can't swim! How can you go into the water to save people!"

"Uh..." Xiaoliu scratched his head, and tried to help his young master to make amends, "Big, it's probably the potential that burst out at a critical moment. Anyway, my son did go into the water to save people!" At the end, he couldn't think of a reason, It's almost cheating.

The official rule: "..."

Putting aside the debate between the two about whether the young master of the He family went into the water to save people, the other person involved in the incident was wandering aimlessly in the garden with his entourage, and seemed to be in a good mood.

The little fan followed behind and asked cautiously: "Your Highness is not angry anymore?" His Highness was obviously still angry when he left the pavilion, why did he calm down after a while.

Mingheng smiled, and asked slowly, "Angry? Why should I be angry?"

At the beginning, he really felt cold, angry and even aggrieved by He Zexi's practice of lifting his pants again and denying people, so he left in anger, but after leaving the Huxin Pavilion, he calmed down, and remembered what He Zexi said to him last night, I can't get angry all of a sudden.

He Zexi told him that he at night is the real him, and he just needs to remember what he said to him at night, and whatever he said during the day was not his intention.The one in the night once told Ming Heng clearly that he had no intention of loving him, so Ming Heng decided to follow He Zexi's words and only remember what he in the night had said to him.

It's strange to say that ever since he met the passionate He Zexi at night, and then faced the indifferent He Zexi in the daytime, he no longer had the usual joy of seeing him, but was inexplicably afraid to get close to him. .It is obvious that it is He Zexi whether it is in the daytime or at night, but he wants to get close to the vivid and lively He Zexi.

Every time he sees that He Zexi, he will unconsciously recall that 13 years ago, he was rescued from the lotus pond by He Zexi. That ten-year-old half-grown boy was soaked to the brim and dripped water from his thin coat to save him. In the cold wind, his teeth chattered and his lips turned white, but he looked down at him with his hips akimbo, and said seriously in a trembling voice: "I can't swallow my anger when I'm bullied. The more you love them, the harder they bully you." , A tooth for a tooth! An eye for an eye!"

Ming Heng, who was only seven years old at the time, was numb from the cold in the lotus pond. He was wrapped in He Zexi's fox fur coat and stared blankly at him. He felt that the person in front of him was picturesque and delicate, like a glass carved from jade. The doll, however, looks like a little wolf cub on the prairie, baring its teeth and claws, baring its short, sharp fangs, fierce and cute.

Ming Heng remembered that scene of He Zexi for 13 years, but he has never seen He Zexi like that since then.I heard that He Zexi had a serious illness after saving him. Although he was lucky to be cured later, it seems that his lively and wild temperament was also cured. He has become the Pian Pian son that the world is full of praise, but Ming Heng never forgets the embarrassed and stubborn He Zexi 13 years ago.I thought I would never see him again, until he saw He Zexi that night.

Being so engrossed in thinking, Ming Heng didn't pay attention to the path under his feet, nor did he hear the reminder from the small fan behind him, so he walked into a courtyard unconsciously.

"The tiger garden is ahead, we can't go any further." A slightly hoarse, unfamiliar male voice suddenly sounded, stopping Ming Heng from moving forward.

Ming Heng stopped in response, looked around trying to find the person who spoke, and asked loudly: "Who is your Excellency?"

A soft laugh sounded, and a Yuebai figure came out from behind a cold plum tree, and paced in front of Mingheng: "I have seen His Highness the Sixth Highness."

Ming Heng looked at the person in front of him.In the cold winter and the twelfth lunar month, the man only wore a moon-white robe, and his figure was graceful, "washing like a willow in the spring moon, and the porch is like a morning glow".But the face can only be described as delicate and handsome, but the facial features are slightly ordinary, only a pair of eyes are slightly raised, and the brows are smiling.

Mingheng always felt that these eyes seemed familiar, and was about to take a closer look, the little fan quietly tugged at the hem of his clothes behind him, reminding him not to be rude.Ming Heng had no choice but to look back, put on the airs of a prince, and asked in a deep voice: "Who are you?"

"The villain is the owner of this house." The man replied.

"You are the master," Ming Heng was overjoyed, the prince stopped putting on airs, and said with a slight smile, "I was just about to visit the master of this house, but I didn't expect to meet you. What's your name?"

"Han Huan." The man slowed down his speech, and said word by word, "The villain's name is Han Huan."

"Han Huan..." Ming Heng repeated it silently, slightly raised the corners of his lips, "Good name."

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness," Han Huan said, "If Your Highness doesn't dislike it, how about I show Your Highness a tour of my garden?"

"I can't ask for it." Ming Heng said happily, "Then there will be Mr. Lao."

"It's an honor for a villain." The young man led Ming Heng through the Merlin, strolling leisurely in the courtyard.

Ming Heng stopped in front of a plum blossom with pale yellow petals.In a cluster of delicate and fiery plum blossoms, this pale yellow one looks so abrupt and stunning, with white petals and pale yellow stamens, shaped like butterflies, with layers of petals, each one as big as a baby's palm, and fragrant.

Ming Heng asked: "What kind of plum is this? I've never seen one of this color."

"Money green calyx," Han Huan said, "this kind of flower grows in the south, and this one was transplanted from the south by the little man who spent a lot of money. It just so happens that the little man has asked someone to go to the south to buy some more. Come back, if Your Highness likes it, I will give you a few plants when the time comes. This flower is very easy to grow, and it can live when there is light."

Ming Heng was a little moved, it would be good if he planted a few plants in his palace, so he had the cheek to beg for a few plants.

After admiring Meilin, Ming Heng followed Han Huan and continued to walk forward. After walking for a while, he suddenly heard a roar of a tiger.Ming Heng paused, listened carefully for a while, and asked the young man beside him: "Was it just a tiger?"

"That's right." Han Huan said, "The Tiger Garden is right in front. Would you like to visit, Your Highness?"

Ming Heng has never seen a tiger at such a young age, so he thought about it, agreed, and chatted with the young man beside him while walking to the tiger garden, "The tiger is the king of all beasts, extremely ferocious, how can you raise such a ferocious beast?"

Han Huan smiled slightly, and said helplessly, "It's just a coincidence that the villain raised tigers. When the villain was young, he went hunting with his father and brother in the forest. He encountered two female tigers fighting to the death. Later, the two female tigers died together, leaving only one tiger cub. The tiger cub was just born and was still very young. Leaving it in the forest would surely die. I developed a relationship with it, and I was reluctant to let it go, so I just kept it."

"So, this tiger cub has been raised among people since he was a child?" Ming Heng asked curiously, "I heard that this beast is out of danger after being popular. Are you tiger cub hurting people?"

Han Huan said: "I originally wanted to raise it and put it back in the forest, but I was worried that it would lose its original nature if I kept it for a long time, so I deliberately kept its wildness, except for myself and one or two servants who are in charge of raising it. I don't let him contact other people, and I don't forcibly restrict his activities. Although I haven't hurt anyone so far, my teeth are still sharp. Your Highness must follow me closely later, and don't act rashly."

When Ming Heng heard that the beast was still dangerous, he immediately nodded with a serious face, and followed closely, feeling unsafe, so he leaned towards the man calmly.

The young man who was walking in front lowered his eyes and sometimes rubbed against the hem of his azure clothes, and slowly raised the corners of his mouth at an angle Ming Heng couldn't see.

Stepping through an arched door, the scene in front of you changes from a high eaves wall to an open and flat land, which is the tiger garden.The Tiger Garden occupies an area the size of a wing of a wealthy family, and is surrounded by a closed fence surrounded by fine iron, presumably to prevent ferocious beasts from slipping out of the cage and hurting people.Inside the cage is a rockery, a small pool, and some small objects that seem to be tiger toys. It is freezing cold today, and the floor is covered with a thick carpet, which shows that the owner attaches great importance to it.

At a glance, Ming Heng saw the tiger who was lying on the white carpet with his back facing them and snoozing.The shiny and thick fur, the thick and powerful tail, and the strong and majestic body all show the majesty of the king of beasts.

Ming Heng was a little scared but very interested. He couldn't help but stare at the back of that gigantic creature that was much more majestic than him.

The young man in white beside him glanced at him quietly, smiled slightly, raised his right hand, put his index finger to his lips and whistled.As soon as the clear and long whistle sounded, the dozing giant tiger in the cage got up, turned its huge head for a look, then ran over wagging its tail. It didn't mind that it was all squeezed and deformed, and stretched out its claws to grab the air in the air.

Ming Heng's eyes were straightened, the majestic tiger looked like a cat cub at the moment, its tail was wagging cheerfully, limply, not threatening at all.

Han Huan stroked the huge hairy head reassuringly, and explained to Ming Heng: "This tiger cub has been clinging to me since he was a child, and he will act like a baby when he sees me."

"Is it just you?" Ming Heng walked carefully behind Han Huan, wanting to take a closer look.

While happily licking its master's delicate and delicious hand, the tiger looked vigilantly at Ming Heng behind him, with a bit fierce eyes, as if observing whether he was dangerous.

Being stared at by the king of beasts, Ming Heng was instinctively a little scared, but also wanted to touch it, and was about to ask if it was okay, when the person in front of him said: "This tiger cub is only sticking to me, don't touch it for anyone else. When he gets close, he barks his teeth within two feet of him."

"Two zhang?" Ming Heng measured the distance between himself and the tiger at this time, it seemed to be within two zhang, but the tiger cub was still quiet, neither baring his teeth nor yelling at him.

Does this mean that this tiger cub really likes him?Ming Heng was complacent, and the thought of reaching out to touch it came up again, he tentatively asked: "Can I touch it?"

Han Huan turned to look at him: "Does Your Highness want to touch it?"

Ming Heng nodded.

The breeder at the side hurriedly stopped: "Young master, absolutely not! This tiger cub is only willing to be touched by my owner, and will explode when others touch him, especially those who don't know him. He will bite directly when he gets aggressive! Before A snitch strayed into the Tiger Garden by mistake, and was bitten off an arm, and my master even lost a lot of money!"

The breeder persuaded him earnestly for a long time, but when he looked up, Ming Heng didn't listen to him at all, and had already touched him.

What's even more amazing is that the ferocious beast that was only willing to be touched by its master is now obediently raising its head and letting a stranger scratch its chin. Instead of blowing its hair, it is wagging its tail happily. Shaking slightly, it looks like it's going to die...
