Broken Iron Clothes

=====================

At this time, there were only two people left in the study.

A curtain was hung at the door to keep out the cold wind, but there was a charcoal stove in the room, so we still opened the window and left a gap for ventilation.

Jiang Shiqing's desk moved as soon as winter came and placed it far away from the window.

At this time, he was sitting in front of the desk, putting the letter he had just received in the book.

After leveling the pages of the book, he said to Yuan Mucheng: "The general is outside in the snow, are you afraid of getting sick?"

The frozen body was already warmed up. Yuan Mucheng sat not far away and tapped on the table, following Jiang Shiqing's every move with his eyes, but only saw the white gauze on his wrist from time to time in that person's movements.

"If you are sick, don't you just do what you want and take revenge for that one mouthful." Yuan Mucheng said.

The room was warm, Jiang Shiqing put the cloak open on his shoulders, picked up the rosary on the table, sat upright and opened the book to read carefully.

"Am I such a narrow-minded person in the eyes of the general?"

Yuan Mucheng smiled and said, "That's not true, I think Brother Jiang's heart is very spacious."

Hearing the unhappiness in his smile, Jiang Shiqing raised his eyes to meet the man's, and said, "Why am I stepping on the general's tail again?"

Yuan Mucheng got up, walked around to his table slowly, took a book in his hand, and sat down leaning against the edge of the table, and while turning the pages of the book, he said: "Yan Lingyong is coming soon, let's go for a ride and drink with him. Tea, listening to music and chatting, is it fun?"

"It's fun," Jiang Shiqing said unhurriedly, "It's very fun."

Yuan Mucheng didn't look at him, but just lowered his head and flipped through the pages in his hand: "Is it your own idea to get close to Yan Lingyong, or was it ordered by your owner?"

"Own." Jiang Shiqing said.

Yuan Mucheng's face suddenly turned cold, and his movements of turning the pages became a little slow. After a while, he said, "Since it's to help me, why do you have to be unclear with Yan Lingyong?"

Jiang Shiqing didn't care about him, he read the book again and said, "If the general doesn't want to believe me, then don't believe it."

Jiang Shiqing originally came to the study after taking a bath. At this time, his hair was covered with white hair, lazily exuding the fragrance of bath beans.

Yuan Mucheng was closer than before, and saw people more clearly.The lingering fragrance lingering around the tip of his nose moved people's hearts, so he squeezed his fingers tightly to feel the pain in his palm, forcing himself to calm down.

"I believe it, why don't you believe it," Yuan Mucheng said, "but, if you want to help me wholeheartedly, will you do whatever I ask you to do?"

"It depends." Jiang Shiqing didn't lift his head.

Yuan Mucheng closed the book in his hand, and said, "I want you to stay away from Yan Ling forever, do you want to do it?"

"No." Jiang Shiqing said.

Yuan Mucheng turned his gaze to see the rosary in his hand, and said, "Reason."

Jiang Shiqing stopped what he was doing, turned his head to look at the person and said, "It doesn't matter if you believe it or not. I will never forget any help I should help. As for my private affairs, I don't need to explain to anyone."

Yuan Mucheng smiled: "What a 'private matter'."

He gently raised his hand, threw the book back to its original place, and said softly: "Even if you are really blind to look at that kid, what do you think I will do?"

"I don't care what the general wants to do, but this matter has nothing to do with the general's interests, let alone the safety of Dali," Jiang Shiqing chuckled, "Why should I say that?"

Yuan Mucheng's eyes turned cold, and he said in a deep voice, "That makes sense."

Jiang Shiqing withdrew his eyes and continued to look at the book.As he raised his hand to flip through the book, the collar of the cloak that was on the outside was pulled to the sides, and half of the collarbone slipped out from the man's collar, bewitching him openly and secretly.

Yuan Mucheng was sweating, but Jiang Shiqing in front of him seemed to be submerged in warm water, trying to drag him into drowning together.

Seeing it made his heart burn, Yuan Mucheng moved his eyes away and began to scan the room.

"Aren't there many people living in your house? Why does it sound so quiet?"

"Not everyone is as interested as the general in blowing in the snow. At this time, they are naturally warming up in the house," Jiang Shiqing said, "Who is the general looking for?"

"I'm not looking for anyone." Yuan Mucheng said.

Jiang Shiqing was reading the book, steadily turning the rosary in his hand, and suddenly said calmly: "Gu Nanxing is not in the city of Yan."

Yuan Mucheng looked back at the man and said, "I didn't ask him."

Hearing this, Jiang Shiqing said: "Oh, I misunderstood. Who made the general's words sound like he was questioning my identity, but he actually asked me about nothing."

Yuan Mucheng sneered and said: "It's just watching the snake and scorpion in your belly restless, you have to ask clearly, after all, you are the one who knows me, and I am the one who knows half about you."

Jiang Shiqing moved a little closer to him, and after carefully looking back and forth between the man's eyes a few times, he said softly: "Well, yes, it's good to talk, otherwise I thought the general has taken a fancy to me."

Yuan Mucheng looked at the person, his palm hurt even more from being pinched, but his whole body seemed to be burned by a raging fire.He just felt annoyed, but the man in front of him was inciting him all the time.

"Do you talk to other men like this?" Yuan Mucheng said.

Jiang Shiqing laughed, and said: "Their eyes are not as cannibalistic as the general. It can be seen that the general has seen a lot of people in Fengyue Field these years."

Yuan Mucheng controlled the roaring agitation in his chest, and said, "I dare not take it for what I've seen too much, it's clear that I've seen too little, and I've never seen a person as bold as you."

"Oh?" Jiang Shiqing looked at him innocently, and said, "What do you say?"

Jiang Shiqing's eyes were filled with candlelight, quietly teasing, and Yuan Mucheng's suppressed stability was distorted by those eyes.

In an instant, the line of defense that was close to madness was burnt. He kicked the low table away, held Jiang Shiqing's wrists and pressed him to the ground.

Jiang Shiqing didn't expect Yuan Mucheng to do this. He was pressed suddenly, and his back hit the ground. He struggled suddenly, but his wrists were tightly clenched. He wanted to lift his feet, but Yuan Mucheng pushed away with his knees. He struggled so hard that the man even stretched his legs and pushed his body down.

Jiang Shiqing stared blankly at the person, and wanted to take it off on top of his head, but Yuan Mucheng dragged his legs back with a cold face, and tied his hands by the rosary that was pulled away.

Yuan Mucheng was domineering and strong, with one hand wrapped around a rosary, he pressed Jiang Shiqing's hands above him, and the other hand squeezed his chin fiercely, his eyes were full of burning passion/desire and resentment.

He said in a harsh voice: "How do you say that? Is it clear enough? What the hell, Jiang Huaichuan, don't you want to talk to me? Didn't you ever lie to me? What's so good about it? Who are you going to show me with a nonchalant appearance, do you really think I don’t touch meat?”

He carefully looked at the person under him, his clothes were messed up, his right collarbone was completely exposed, and he became more and more attractive with his rapid breathing.

Jiang Shiqing pursed his lips, stared at him in embarrassment, and said, "Let go of me, get up and talk."

But looking at this appearance, Yuan Mucheng became even more lustful, his bottom became stiff, and he pressed against the person fiercely.Jiang Shiqing felt the ferocity, his body trembled slightly, and he struggled again.

In a moment, Yuan Mucheng tilted his head and bit down on his earlobe.That bite was so hard that Jiang Shiqing couldn't help snorting.

Hearing the sound, Yuan Mucheng relaxed his movements, but still held the earlobe in his mouth, and only picked up the tip of his tongue to fiddle with the reddened softness, which made the man's heart flutter and his anger grow stronger.

"Yuan Xiao'an! You're going to go crazy and go elsewhere!" Jiang Shiqing said angrily.

Yuan Mucheng took another lick before slowly moving his head back, and said in a low voice with a smile, "Why don't you remember the pain after biting you once?"

Jiang Shiqing calmed down his flustered breath, and said, "Do you keep these teeth for biting people?"

Yuan Mucheng leaned over affectionately and whispered, "There are other uses, do you want to try it?"

Jiang Shiqing's cheeks were scalded, but no expression could be seen on his face. Feeling Yuan Mucheng's lips approaching again, he gritted his teeth and said, "Have you been crazy enough?"

Only then did Yuan Mucheng stop his movements, but the thing underneath was still pressed between Jiang Shiqing's legs in horror, and it didn't feel loose at all against his abdomen.

There was a lot of movement in the study, He Xiao and Ji Dong who rushed over after hearing the sound lifted the curtain to block the wind, and called out at the same time: "Master—"

"go out!"

The two of them lay down among the books on the floor and drank at the same time. Seeing this, He Xiao had no choice but to drag Ji Dong out the door.

The cold wind invaded the room and cooled the heat surrounding the two of them a little. Jiang Shiqing tried to turn his aching wrist, but Yuan Mucheng caught the twisting fingers in his palm again.

The red seal made by the rosary beads became more and more obvious, and it landed in the hands of the two, which fit very well.

Yuan Mucheng was in high spirits, but from the corner of his eye, he saw blood oozing from the gauze on his wrist, so he had to hold back his strength.

He lightly rubbed the man's red earlobe, and said coldly: "Remember the pain this time, I don't care who you play tricks on, but if you dare to tease again, next time it won't be as simple as biting someone. "

-

After returning to the mansion, Yuan Mucheng did not enter the house, but stood awake in the cold wind for a long time, the smell of Jiang Shiqing had already dissipated completely, only the emotion of thinking about that person was still throbbing in his chest.

He is really crazy.

But everything that just happened is true.

Unresolvable desires and inseparable entanglements were not without traces, and he had to admit that he was out of control.

During these years in Yuzhou, the smell of blood was so strong that he lost his sense of smell, forgetting that the fragrance of bath beans should not be mixed with the smell of blood.Holding the long knife and putting on the battle armor, he even forgot who he was.

He wanted to be Yuan Mucheng so much that when he released the desire he had pent up for eight years on Jiang Shiqing, he was like a dog that had finally found its way home after being lost for a long time.

He wanted to be infected with the familiar smell, too much.

But when the wind blows, the smell dissipates.

Yuan Mucheng thought so, lowered his head and sniffed the cool sleeves, then turned his head and walked back into the room.

-

The spring is cold and cold, and there are a few rounds of light rain. The buds that break through the frost are fresh green, and they look vivid.Just after finishing the quiz at the end of the month for the Imperial College, the superintendents poured out of the classroom, all of them with some ink on their hands.

After sorting out the scrolls, Yu Jing took some snacks back to the dormitory, and after sitting down and drinking a cup of tea, Xu Yixu entered the door with a food box.

"Can I eat these for dinner?"

Yu Jing raised his head upon hearing the sound and saw the person.

Xu Yixu was elegant, his official robes were not stained with ink, and he was graceful and clean.When he got to the table, he lightly lifted his robe and sat down, loosened the food box with his slender five fingers, and put it on his knees just like that.

Yu Jing couldn't see his elegant appearance, and he couldn't forget that Xu Yixu was someone he could only see with his eyes down.Six years ago when Xu Yixu was a servant in Xu Bing's residence, he was chosen by Xu Bing as a student because of his talent. Later, he thought that he had no father and no mother, so Xu Bing even took the word "Zhengyan" for him.

These years, Xu Yixu followed Xu Bing's side and also sought an upright official position. Yu Jing was actually unhappy when he saw him, but he still wanted to put on a kind face.

"Sir asked you to come?" Yu Jing asked.

"The polo match is approaching, King Yin is coming back today, Mr. Yizhong Hou Xun is discussing matters, he is naturally busy, so he asked me to come and see you." Xu Yixu said.

Yu Jing swallowed a sip of tea, pulled the food box in front of him, and said, "What's so interesting about me, sir, it's not just once or twice that you scold me."

Xu Yixu brushed away the debris on the case for him, and said: "Earlier, although it was inappropriate for Cui Shangshu to release the murder suspect for the search of Jiang's house, he did find some evidence that the Yan family bought the murderer, sir. Annoyed, because His Majesty pursued the Ministry of Punishment's dereliction of duty in the Hall of Yingchen, but your persuasion at Yizhonghou's mansion that day just caused Cui Shangshu to make this mistake."

Yu Jing frowned as he listened: "Mr. taught me, I should accept it, but His Majesty is not only annoyed by the criminal department's dereliction of duty, he just used this matter to vent all his dissatisfaction without real power all these years."

Xu Yixu looked at the person and said softly, "You can say these things, but don't say any more."
