Stigma

After entering the city, Suixun asked the deputy to lead the army to rectify. He took a few guards and rode back to the Hou Mansion.

The peach trees outside Hou’s mansion had already fallen out of dead leaves, and a row of red paper lanterns hung bare on the branches.

Suixun stopped the horse, glanced at the nondescript peach branch, frowned.

Sui Yan was still sitting on the horse: "Brother?"

Suixun responded and stretched out his hand to hug Sui Yan from the horse.

Suixun and Sui Yan stood at the door waiting for Duan Mingchong. After a while, Suixun couldn't help but frowned and said, "What's on the tree? Did you let it go?"

Sui Yan said, "I did it myself by myself. It looks very festive. Does my brother like it?"

Suixun scolded: "Non-decent, why don't you learn a little better and play around with all these messy things?"

When Sui Yan heard this, he thought it was bad. Sui Xun looked cold and cold, but he was able to compete with Jun Jingxing in a long-winded manner. He hurriedly said: "Brother, you shouldn't need to do this during the Chinese New Year. Go back to the border? How long can you stay?"

Suixun was dissatisfied that he changed the subject, but still said: "This battle will be safe for the border crossing. I may stay in the capital next year. I won't go back to the border if there is nothing too urgent."

Sui Yan Yixi: "That couldn't be better!"

He was rejoicing, Suixun's conversation turned and he said coldly: "So in the past three years, have you found a girl you like? I have given you so long, don't you say that you still don't want to start a family?"

Sui Yan froze. After thinking about it, he reluctantly said, "I think I do, but people don't look down on me."

Suixun originally thought it was Sui Yan who was accustomed to playing and didn't want to become a family to restrain him. He didn't expect that there would be such a thing, and he was immediately shocked.

He couldn't say enough: "You mean, which girl do you have fancy, and after more than three years of chasing her, she didn't capture her heart?"

Sui Yan lowered his head and said dullly, "Yeah."

Suixun was completely shocked: "You want to have a good looks, an identity, and an identity. Which girl is that person, and I don't even look down on you?"

Sui Xun can say what's wrong with Sui Yan, but if others look down on his younger brother, Sui Xun will not be angry and feel that he is really blind.

Sui Yan said in a low voice, "I am more respectable than me, and I heard that I will get married."

As he said, he lowered his head, looking like he was hurt by love.

Sui Xun has never seen Sui Yan's appearance. After a long period of stunned, he said with difficulty: "Are you doing things so unreasonably that people think you are unreliable? Which girl is it, you tell me? ."

Sui Yan snorted, "Tell you what to do, don't you still have to use a knife to kill others?"

Suixun shook his head: "No."

Sui Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

Suixun said, "It's still possible to cut down the man who wants to marry her."

Sui Yan: "..."

Sui Yan lost his voice: "Brother!"

Suixun was actually just telling a joke. He said, "I'm called the elder brother-my younger brother is both talented and handsome, or the emperor's pro-appointed Lord Hou. With so many famous ladies in China, why did you look at the last one who didn’t like you? Oh, yes, another reason may be that you are notorious, and no one in Beijing likes you.”

Sui Yan: "..."

Sui Yan didn't even know for a moment whether Suixun was complimenting him too much or hurting him too much.

Sui Yan stomped his feet and said angrily: "Anyway, I don't want to talk about marriage now, so don't ask me any more!"

Suixun said coldly: "Don't play kiddy with me! Don't you know how old you are now?"

Sui Yan couldn't believe it: "I'm so overwhelmed by love, why are you still willing to let me talk about marriage at this juncture? I'm still not your brother!?"

Suixun frowned: "Don't turn off the topic and talk nonsense about some things, anyway, you..."

Before he finished the threat, Duan Mingchong's carriage was late and came to a halt at Hou's Mansion.

Suixun had to whisper: "I will find you to settle the account at night."

Sui Yanhong stared at him with eyes.

Duan Mingchong got off the carriage and caught a glimpse of the appearance of the two brothers who were obviously different from the ones before. He was taken aback for a moment, and said, "What's wrong?"

Suixun said: "It's nothing, I'm having a temper, your Royal Highness laughed."

Sui Yan was so angry that she tore off her cloak and threw it on Suixun, and said angrily: "Get married, go get married by yourself!"

As he said, he walked away.

Duan Mingchong looked at Sui Yan's words and actions exactly the same as those in the afternoon, with a certain sense of confidence: "This..."

Is it because of the emperor's marriage that the two brothers did not agree?

Sui Yan seems...really depends on Suixun too much, are ordinary people's brothers like this?

Suixun smiled reluctantly, without explaining anything, and brought Duan Ming Chong into the mansion.

Sui Yan returned angrily to the hospital, suddenly opened the door, and saw Jun Jingxing sitting on the side reading a medical book. There were a few herbs on the table, which seemed to be identifying.

Sui Yan’s face was extremely angry. Jun Jingxing hurriedly buckled the book on the table, condensing the medicine on the table into the box in a very familiar manner, lest Sui Yan would be unpleasant when he was angry, and lift his medicine. turn.

He closed the box and said, "What's the matter? I wasn't so happy when I went out just now. Why are you so angry now? Your brother didn't come back, so he was **** you again?"

Sui Yan held back his anger and said, "Can you think of it, not long after he just came back, he actually urged me to get married."

Jun Jingxing: "Oh, that's it. If it's a coincidence, I can still marry the prince on the same day."

Sui Yan: "Jun Jingxing!"

Jun Jingxing then remembered that Sui Yan had a crush on the prince, and hurriedly said, "I was wrong, sorry."

Only then did Sui Yan sit down.

Jun Jingxing saw that he was so angry with this virtue, he poured tea to him with a pleasing eyebrow, and persuaded him: "Now it's spread all over the streets and alleys, and the prince responds like that, you should almost..."

Sui Yan took a sip and suddenly "pooh": "Too hot!"

Jun Jingxing had to make a new brew.

"I heard someone talk about this today, and it is said that all the girls have finalized it, and I just wait for the will to come down and announce it to the world."

Sui Yan: "Bah! It's too cold! Make it again!"

Jun Jingxing: "..."

No matter how stupid he was, Jun Jingxing could see that he was looking for faults. He simply put the tea set on the table and took a deep breath: "Are you not sober now? I'll give you a decoction?"

Sui Yan was trembling with anger, and said in a crying voice: "They all stand and talk, and they don’t hurt their backs. One is in charge of people's heart, and the other is responsible for spreading salt next to them... They! They cooperate so tacitly, why don’t they? Go kill the pigs?!"

Although Jun Jingxing was dumbfounded by his remarks, his voice was dumb, and he was a little at a loss: "Hey, hey, don't cry, what a big deal, you..."

Sui Yan glared at him: "I won't cry for those two stinky men, one by one is not a good thing! I wasted my tears by crying for them."

Jun Jingxing: "..."

Jun Jingxing saw that he was so alive and kicking, so he had to swallow the consolation he had brewed.

Sui Yan drank a cup of tea, and then said, "My brother...my brother too, how can such a brother be forced to get married before coming back for a long time? He doesn't have a young lady, so why ask me? "

For fear of touching him, Jun Jingxing had to agree: "Yes, yes."

"I have never received my brother's favor before. I just want to act like a baby and tell my brother what happened to me. Does he make me call me'brother' in every sentence?"

Jun Jingxing: "Right, right, right."

Sui Yan scolded: "All of them are clubs!"

Jun Jingxing: "That's right. That's right."

Sui Yan glanced at him: "Don't agree with you too early, you also count as one."

Jun Jingxing: "..."

Jun Jingxing looked at him blankly, saying that it was a waste of his feelings that he felt sorry for this kid.

Sui Yan took another sip of tea and said, "You just said that the princess has finalized the candidate, which girl is it?"

Jun Jingxing said: "I told you, you won't go to other people's door to find fault."

Sui Yan said, "I'm not so embarrassed, say."

Jun Jingxing said: "The second lady of Jiangzhiyuan, Jiang Ning."

Sui Yan said "Oh" and took a sip of tea blankly. After sitting in a chair for a long time, he was caught off guard with a "Wow", which made Jun Jingxing shiver.

Sui Yan cried and said: "Jiang Ning is several years older than the prince, so where is the right one? Does Duan Mingchong really like to be older than him? I'm older than him, so why doesn't he consider me?! "

Jun Jingxing looked at him as if he was ill again: "Master Hou? Are you okay with Master Hou? Do you want to go to bed for a while?"

Sui Yan was still talking nonsense, and Jun Jingxing was busy persuading him to get him on the bed, fearing that he was too thinking.

Sui Yan lay in the quilt, staring at him in a daze, and said dumbly: "I want my brother."

Jun Jingxing helplessly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said, "Master Hou, how old are you now? Are you five years old and arguing for your brother."

Years old Yanner said: "I have never called their brother since I was a kid."

Jun Jingxing was stunned for a moment.

Sui Yan murmured: "When I wanted to call, I found that they were all gone."

Jun Jingxing didn't understand too much, so he had to persuade him: "The old general should have gone to the palace with the prince to report on duty. I will come back later and let him come to see you, okay?"

Sui Yan didn't know if he heard it, he whispered: "I want to make up all the previous ones, why did he refuse to let me call him his brother?"

Not only this life, but all the hatreds of the previous life are all made up.

Sui Yan didn't have the temperament to act like a spoiled child. Everything he had cultivated in his previous life was dependent on his own habit, and it was difficult to change it for a while.

After rebirth, he only has two wishes. One is not to be able to sift the chaff with so much heart and mind like the previous life, and to stir up the muddy water of seizure, as long as it is safe and smooth to live, it is enough; the other is the age of this change. Xun.

Suixun was supposed to die with his elder brother in the fierce battle at the border when he was ten years old, but he escaped the disaster for some reason in this life.

Sui Yan once asked people to investigate this incident three years ago, but the conclusion he gave was only ambiguous: the prince was assassinated when he was young, and Suixun, who was just a deputy general, was transferred to the guard of the East Palace by the emperor, and he did not experience the border crossing. That fierce battle that almost wiped out the entire army.

In any case, Suixun's survival is the most fortunate and joyous thing Sui Yan has since reborn.

He didn't want to ask about other things, just wanted to make up for the brother's warmth that he had missed for a while, but Suixun never let him do what he wanted, even if his brother shouted, he had to sullen his face and let him call his elder brother instead.

The more Sui Yan thinks about it, the more difficult it is to calm down.

Jun Jingxing said helplessly: "It's just a name, don't care so much."

Sui Yan took the words of Jun Jingxing before him: "You don't have a brother, so naturally you don't understand me."

Jun Jingxing: "..."

Jun Jingxing had no choice but to say: "Well, well, I don't understand you, but I know your body very well now. If you continue to talk like this, you may be stunned, okay to sleep first?"

Sui Yan gave an "um" and lay down for a long time, then suddenly opened his eyes and said, "I want to go to my brother's room to sleep."

Jun Jingxing: "..."

The medical book that Jun Jingxing put in his hand was helpless: "Aren't you afraid that he will punch you out?"

He thought for a while, looked at Sui Yan with a sullen face and learned Suixun's expression, and said in a low voice, "It's not big or small, how decent it is!"

Sui Yan: "..."

Jun Jingxing: "Ah, I almost forgot."

He was in school again, and said in a deep voice, "I'm called the elder brother."

Sui Yan couldn't hold back, and kicked over.

Jun Jingxing thinks he has learned a lot like this: "Your brother is like this, he is very fierce, so don't worry about it."

Sui Yan let out an "um", and then closed his eyes and went to sleep.

He originally thought that it would be morning when he woke up again, but when he opened his eyes again, the window seemed to be dark, and the candle on the bedside table was lit, slightly illuminating the figure sitting on the bedside.

Sui Yan looked at him staringly, and then said, "Brother?"

Suixun sat by his bed and didn't know how long he had been here. Perhaps it was because of the candlelight. Suixun looked softer than in the day. He stretched out his hand to wipe off the cold sweat on Sui Yan's forehead and said, "I have a nightmare. ?"

Sui Yan shook his head: "No, there are too many charcoal basins, it's a bit hot."

Suixun frowned, got up and took out the charcoal basin in the house, turned it back, and said, "Okay, is it better now?"

Sui Yan nodded and said, "Is your brother coming back so late?"

Suixun: "Well, I'll look at you, just take a look and leave."

Sui Yan hurriedly stretched out a hand to hold his sleeve, and whispered, "Don't go so fast."

It is rare for Suixun to see the pitiful and soft look of this heavenly bastard. His cold eyes rarely flashed with a smile, and he whispered, "Okay, I'll accompany you for a while."

He stuffed Sui Yan's hand into the quilt, Sui Yan immediately grabbed his index finger and prevented him from walking, and said, "The emperor stayed with you so late, is there anything important?"

Suixun was a little uncomfortable with Sui Yan's reliance. He frowned and pulled his hand back, only to see Sui Yan's eyes instantly red.

Suixun: "You..."

Sui Yan hurriedly turned her head, took a few breaths in a low voice, then turned her head, and smiled reluctantly: "It's nothing, the elder brother continues to say."

Suixun thought for a while, stretched his hand to the quilt, and buckled Sui Yan's slender five fingers, then said: "I said something and nothing, and I also rewarded some valuable novelties. When you get up tomorrow morning, you will go and see. If there is anything you like, let's play with it."

Sui Yan shook Suixun's hand, and his eyes immediately bend.

"okay."

Suixun looked into his eyes and hesitated for a moment before he said, "There is one more thing."

Sui Yan: "Huh?"

Suddenly Suixun didn't know whether to say it or not.

When he was in the palace, Duan Mingchong told him that Sui Yan heard an abnormality that suddenly appeared after he was about to get married. He worried that if he told him about his marriage, would he go crazy in the middle of the night?

Sui Yan waited for a long time without waiting, and scratched Suixun's palm: "Brother?"

Suixun thought for a while, and she absolutely told the truth: "I will stay in Beijing for a year or two. The emperor Xu thinks that you have grown up and you are no longer in control, so... he gave me a marriage, probably because he wanted to use it. The female relatives came to contain me."

Years of Yan froze.

Suixun took a deep breath: "...The candidate has been selected. You should have seen Jiang Ning, the son and daughter of Chaojiang Zhiyuan, and the will will come down tomorrow."

Sui Yan: "..."

Sui Xun feared that he would be stimulated, and his voice was softer than ever before: "Forgetting home?"

Sui Yan shook off Suixun's hand and pulled the quilt up to cover his face, not wanting to see anyone.

Suixun was taken aback: "Forget Home, are you okay?"

He didn't want to say too much, because he was afraid to stimulate Sui Yan.

Sui Yan was in the quilt, her voice muffled, with a little crying: "It's okay."

Suixun: "Then you..."

Sui Yan collapsed and said, "I just want to kill the **** Jun Jingxing."

Suixun: "..."

Sui Yan was almost crying, what on earth did he do for so many days?

No wonder Duan Mingchong said so well to him, dare to love the marriage between Suixun and Jiang Ning, which of course couldn't be better.

He recalled the words with Duan Mingchong that the donkey's lips were wrong but the horse's mouth actually met, and then he scolded Duan Mingchong for no reason, and even lifted his teacup, almost wanting to drop himself on the pillow and kill himself. .

At that time, Duan Mingchong didn't think he was doing this for Suixun, right?

Will he think more of a mess?

Or feel that you are too childish, and you still don't want your brother to get married with such a big temper?

Sui Yan was groaning in shame. He wanted to kill himself and Jun Jingxing, who was the fake news. The two sides struggled down, and the killing intent Jane reached the top.

Sui Xun was worried for a long time, and Sui Yan tore off the quilt and looked at him, sobbing: "Brother, will your Royal Highness come over tomorrow?"

Sui Xun is unclear, so: "Xu will, and I'm not sure, what's the matter? What's the matter with the prince?"

Sui Yan couldn't say enough: "No, nothing, I just feel that I have lived so many years in vain."

Twenty-three years in the previous life, three years in the present life, and they have lived for twenty-six years in total. They were so angry before they understood the truth of the matter. Sui Yan started to wonder if he had forgotten to bring his mind when he was born again. Now, this is the only way to do such a stupid thing.

Sui Xun wanted to say something more, but Sui Yan turned over and didn't want to communicate anymore. He was so frustrated that he was angry all over: "Brother, you go back, Ye'an."

Sui Xun saw that he really couldn't think about it. He wondered if that point had gone wrong with his own child, and he brought Sui Yan into a mad look like his brother-in-law. He tucked the quilt for him, told a few words, and turned away. go out.

Sui Yan smashed his head on the pillow for a long time before falling asleep dizzy.

Early the next morning, Jun Jingxing probably heard the rumors that he was afraid of being killed by Sui Yan, and ran away before Sui Yan got up.

Sui Yan got up, took a stick, and rummaged through the yard blankly but couldn't find Jun Jingxing. He was so angry that he almost broke the stick.

Haitang was anxious and sweaty behind him: "Master, the gentleman said that something was going on early in the morning and left the Hou Mansion early, you...what's wrong with you, so angry?"

Sui Yan was so angry that he couldn't breathe firmly, holding a stick and pointing at him: "Go get him back for me! Right away! Right away! I'm going to kill him!"

Haitang ran away in a hurry, and hurried to inform Jun Jingxing to let him stay outside for a few more days, so as to save his young master from actually killing him.

Sui Yan threw the stick aside angrily, almost crushing a mouthful of steel teeth.

At this time, a familiar voice came from the side.

"This early morning, who caused our grandfather Hou Sheng to be so magnificent?"

When Sui Yan turned his head, he saw Duan Mingchong in a dark brocade robe.

Sui Yan's heart jumped and turned around to run.

Duan Mingchong couldn't laugh or cry, and walked a few steps quickly and grabbed him: "What are you running? Couldn't it be me who provoked you? I didn't mention anything this time."

Year-old Yan Ergen was so red that he was almost bleeding, and he was ashamed to say a word, lowered his head and dared not look up at him.

Seeing that he shrank his head like a quail, Duan Mingchong laughed in a low voice. He stretched out two hands and gently placed the side of Sui Yan's face, gently holding his face.

What Sui Yan couldn't stand the most was Duan Mingchong's gentle movements, as if he were the jewelry he valued most, when he followed his movements and raised his head slightly without resistance.

Duan Mingchong stared at his reddish cheeks and smiled softly: "Don't hide from me?"

Sui Yannane said: "His Royal Highness forgive me, I was too rude a few days ago."

Duan Ming Chongren smiled: "It's good to know that you are wrong, and I will treat you as if I did something wrong that offended you."

Sui Yan became even more guilty: "How is it possible?"

Duan Mingchong then let go: "Then I'm relieved."

Duan Ming Chongyi put down his hand, Sui Yan suddenly felt a bit cold on his cheeks. He was a little dizzy when he was teased by Duan Ming Chong. He actually took the initiative to hold Duan Ming Chong's hand on his cheek, and said vaguely: "More, put another one. meeting."

Duan Mingchong: "..."
