The most unlucky crossing in history

Although Zhong Qiyun knew Xie Wenyuan's sentence "I will take a rest tomorrow" and simply told him that he would not be able to go to court tomorrow, but Zhong Qiyun couldn't help but think about it.

You rest tomorrow, that means I can invite you to play around tomorrow, can I do whatever I want tonight?

Do whatever you want...

The moment these four words passed through my mind, my thinking became rigid and I couldn't control it.

Staring at Xie Wenyuan's always calm and composed face, Zhong Qiyun was a little dazed.

To be honest, even if he had that kind of thought in his heart, he had thought about it many times uncontrollably, but he really couldn't imagine what Xie Wenyuan would be like at that time.

Will that calm expression be filled with flushes, will it...

"Cough cough cough cough cough cough..."

Realizing that he was thinking wildly in front of the person involved, Zhong Qiyun coughed several times, afraid that Xie Wenyuan would see the clue, so he looked up at the moon and said, "If that's the case, why don't we take advantage of the beautiful scenery on this beautiful day to have a good chat and drink together?" Fan," he said before looking at Xie Wenyuan again, and said with a smile, "Brother Wenyuan, what do you think?"

Xie Wenyuan looked at Zhong Qiyun's deliberately concealed appearance, although he didn't know why Zhong Qiyun thought of what he said just now... But I'm afraid it's something that can't be said to him.

Xie Wenyuan didn't plan to delve into it, he was afraid that if he asked, the answer he got would not be what he wanted to hear.

Just pretending not to notice, nodded slightly: "Of course it's possible."

Xie Wenyuan was actually right, Zhong Qiyun was indeed hungry.

Because Xie Wenyuan asked the kitchen to make some delicious stir-fried dishes, the servants in the house put the prepared meals on the trays and took them to Yating, Zhong Qiyun cooked the rice and ate everything in two or three strokes.

Xie Wenyuan couldn't help laughing and said, "Is there less food in the kitchen? I'll let them make some more and send them over?"

"No, no, I'm already full. The food at Mr. Xie's house is delicious, and I even ate an extra bowl than before." Zhong Qiyun just said that he wanted to drink with Xie Wenyuan, but he still knew that he was tired , not willing to let him fool around with him any more, and counting the time, the people in the house should have prepared hot water, Zhong Qiyun said: "Now that I have eaten this meal, you can go back to your room to rest."

Xie Wenyuan said with a smile: "Brother Yuanren, didn't you invite me to raise a glass and look at the moon? Why, don't you want to?"

"Why don't you want to! You don't know how much I've been thinking about in the past few months..."

Miss you······

I want to see you, I want to hear your voice, I want to hug you, I want...

Before Zhong Qiyun could finish his sentence, Xie Wenyuan Que understood from his eyes, and he looked sideways slightly to avoid the intersecting gaze.

Seeing this, Zhong Qiyun paused, calmed down the turbulent emotions in his heart, took a sip of the tea on the table: "I haven't seen you in April or May, I want to have a good chat with Brother Wenyuan", Zhong Qiyun stared at him Xie Wenyuan on the opposite side, "But it's too late today, I still want you to rest well, and I'll invite you for a walk around tomorrow, I don't know if you have time."

Xie Wenyuan lowered his eyes: "Brother Yuanren came from afar, and I have been taken care of by you many times at sea. Now that you come to Jingzhao, I will show you around as a landlord."

When Zhong Qiyun heard this, he said happily, "If so, that would be the best!"

Xie Wenyuan couldn't help but smile when he heard the sound.

Although Zhong Qiyun urged Xie Wenyuan to rest, but when they left, he thought again.

After taking a bath, he lay down on the bed and traveled on the road for several days. It is reasonable to say that he should be very tired, but at this moment he didn't feel sleepy at all.

Originally, it was because the distance was too far away, and he was thinking about it tightly. He thought that seeing him would relieve him a little bit, but he never thought that after seeing him, he would be even more troubled.

He was full of thoughts about the place only 50 meters away, where Xie Wenyuan, whom he had been thinking about for months, was there.

Repeatedly, tossing and turning, very annoying.

Zhong Qiyun felt that he had been lying down for a long time, but when he raised his eyes and looked out the window, it was still as dark as ink, and there was no sign that it was about to light up.

He couldn't bear it anymore, so he turned over suddenly.

Then he pushed open the door and wanted to go out.

The drowsy boy outside the door was startled awake by his action, and seeing Boss Zhong running out in his underwear, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Is Boss Zhong doing something?"

Zhong Qiyun paused for a moment, and then said: "Oh, it's all right, it's just that I can't sleep because of the heat at night, and I want to go over there to enjoy the cool breeze."

Is it hot?The boy was confused, today is not really hot, is it?But thinking that Boss Zhong in front of him would allow himself, my lord, to stay at the mansion, he must be an honorable guest not to be provoked, so he said: "If Boss Zhong feels hot, I'll go to the ice cellar to get some ice cubes for you to cool off."

Zhong Qiyun waved his hands quickly when he heard the words: "No need, little brother, don't bother me." This is heart heat, not body heat, and no amount of ice cubes will help.

Saying that, Zhong Qiyun was about to walk in the direction of Xie Wenyuan's bedroom, but the servant followed suit.

Come.

Zhong Qiyun turned his head to him and said, "You don't have to worry about me, I'll just go over there for a walk."

"This..." The little brother looked at Zhong Qiyun with some embarrassment, not knowing what to say.

Zhong Qiyun instantly understood what he meant, "Oh, the mansion doesn't let you walk around at night, right?"

"No, no, no," if the adults who come to the house as guests in the past, he would have told him sternly that they would not be allowed to wander around, but facing this Boss Zhong, the younger brother was a little unsure what to do. What kind of attitude does he adopt? He is afraid that letting him move around will displease the master, and he is also afraid of offending this distinguished guest, so he will file a complaint with the master...

The younger brother pondered for a moment, then shook his head and replied, "It's just that it's dark at night, and the roads around the house are winding and hard to find. It's better to let the little one light the lamp for you and take you there."

Zhong Qiyun thought for a while, then nodded: "Then I will trouble you, brother."

The boy bowed his head: "It should be, Boss Zhong can call me to thank Chong."

"Xie Chong? Are you also from Xie's family?"

Xie Chong heard the words while shaking his head and responded: "No, I lost my parents when I was young and lived on the streets and almost starved to death. I was saved by my wife. Because I couldn't remember my name at that time, my wife gave me the surname Xie." Hastily went to the eaves to take out the lamp, and returned to Zhong Qiyun's side, "Boss Zhong, please."

Zhong Qiyun: "The madam you are talking about, is Mr. Xie's biological mother?"

Xie Chong nodded and said with a slight smile: "Yes, madam is gentle and elegant, she is the best person in the world."

Zhong Qiyun had heard about Xie Wenyuan's biological mother, but he only knew that Hu Yanzhang's wife and Xie Wenyuan's biological mother were cousins, and Xie Wenyuan's mother, Qu Lingyi, was Qu Lingyi, the first Zhongshuling Qu during the reign of the late emperor. Buqing's only daughter.

Born into a scholarly family and a wealthy family, the place of birth is beautiful, gentle and elegant, but it is a pity that Xie Wenyuan died of illness when he was six years old.

The courtyard of Xie Wenyuan's bedroom was not far away. Zhong Qiyun walked to the covered bridge in the front yard of Xie Wenyuan's bedroom, and stopped moving forward. He just raised his head and passed the moon cave gate, staring at the room with the lights off.

Seeing that Xie Chong was a little confused, but it was not easy to ask him what he was looking at, so he could only stand quietly beside Zhong Qiyun and hold the lamp for him.

Zhong Qiyun looked at it for a long time, but rarely felt a trace of unattainable boredom. He sighed softly and asked, "Since your lord left the General's Mansion at the age of 16, you have been living here?"

Steward Cao is strict with the servants in the mansion, what should be said and what should not be said, these servants are not very old, but they generally know about it, and the world knows about this kind of people, or just check it casually.

It is not a secret that he can know, and he does not hide it.

"It's not always here. When I first came to the court to serve as a sixth-rank official, I lived in the sixth-rank official's mansion in the south of the city. Later, I moved several times when I was promoted. Now this place was moved when I was promoted to Minister of Shangshu last year. "

"Different official positions, do you have different residences?"

Xie Chong shook his head: "Not necessarily, it depends on how the Holy One rewards."

Zhong Qiyun understood.

"However, I have moved four or five times over the years."

I left home at the age of 16, and now I am only 24, and I have moved five times in eight or nine years. This place is not so much a home as a temporary residence.

Zhong Qiyun sighed in his heart, feeling a little uncomfortable.

There was silence for a long time, neither speaking nor moving a step.

Xie Chong didn't dare to move at the side, standing still with sore waist and legs, only then did he hear the strangely behaving Boss Zhong call his name.

"Thank you Chong."

"What's the matter?" Xie Chong, who thought that Zhong Qiyun was finally going back, was refreshed.

But the next sentence Zhong Qiyun asked made him dumbfounded.

Zhong Qiyun narrowed his eyes and asked, "Why don't you Mr. Xie get married?"

"This..." Xie Chong was a little dazed. He didn't know what was going on with Boss Zhong. When he asked this question, he recalled Steward Cao's instructions, but he couldn't remember how Steward Cao treated them. I have said how to answer if you ask about the marriage of an adult.

Because no one has ever asked for so many years... Even if those official ladies have intentions in their hearts, they are only insinuating from other people's side. How have they ever been asked directly in this way?

An adult's marriage...

It's a secret, or not?

Xie Chong had a headache, and after thinking for a while, he said hesitantly: "Actually, my lord made an engagement before leaving the general's mansion..."

"..."

Ok? ? ?

Zhong Qiyun suddenly turned his head to look at Xie Chong. Because he was too surprised, he forgot to control the volume for a while, and shouted in disbelief: "What? Engaged? With whom? How can I..."

It's just that before he finished speaking, the bedroom in the main house not far away was suddenly pushed away by the people inside.

The sound of the door opening made the two of them subconsciously look over, lighting the lights on the eaves, Zhong Qiyun clearly saw Xie Wenyuan, who was wearing a coat casually and with long black hair loose, and looked over coldly.

Then he heard the man say something with a half-smile: "Brother Yuan Ren doesn't sleep late at night, but he came here to chat, disturbing people's sleep?"

"..." Zhong Qiyun touched his nose

Son, "I was wrong."

Xie Wenyuan: "..."
