Son as Wife

Chapter 73 Arrangements

  Arriving at Ruijun Prince's Mansion, after entering the door, Yan Jingshu discovered that besides Xiao Yanchu, there was another person he was very familiar with waiting for him and Jiajia, and this person was Xie Huan.

Speaking of which, Xie Huan's stay in Ruijun Palace was arranged by King Chu Xiang. Xiao Yanchu was still young and needed a teacher to teach him. If he went to the palace every day to study with those little uncles and uncles in the Imperial Academy, it would be too much trouble. Therefore, King Chu Xiang suggested to find a teacher for Xiao Yanchu directly outside the palace, and this teacher was Xie Huan, who was a closed disciple of the Great Confucianism at that time.

It just so happened that Xie Huan also taught Xiao Yanchu for a period of time when he was in Ningcheng, and the two were familiar with each other, so Xiao Yanchu didn't have to adapt to a new teacher.

But what Yan Jingshu and Jiang Chenghan didn't know was that the real reason why King Chuxiang made such a troublesome arrangement was to have more opportunities to see Xie Huan. Although Ruijun Palace and Chuxiang Palace seem to be on two completely disjoint roads, the back garden of Ruijun Palace is partly connected to the garden of Chuxiang Palace.

Since Xie Huan became Xiao Yanchu's teacher, he naturally wanted to live in the palace, and Xiao Yanchu got the order of King Chu Xiang to arrange Xie Huan to teach him and live in a courtyard closest to the garden.

So Xie Huan, who had just showered and was drying his hair in the courtyard on the first night when he came to Ruijun Prince's Mansion, just watched Mu Chongyan, a majestic first-rank prince, jump over the wall and enter his courtyard regardless of his image. Fortunately, because he was withdrawn by nature and didn't like people around, he politely declined Xiao Yanchu's arrangement of servants, so that only Xie Huan could see Mu Chongyan's appearance.

Jiang Chenghan and Yan Jingshu didn't know that Xie Huan would never be pure again, and would be disturbed by an uninvited guest almost every day. It was only when Jiajia returned from the Ruijun Palace that he returned to his usual cheerful and smiling appearance. Press your heart.

After Jiajia settled down to sleep, Jiang Chenghan and Yan Jingshu returned to their bedroom, retreated and sat on the couch by the window to talk.

"...I didn't know until I arrived at the county prince's mansion that King Chuxiang invited daddy to be a teacher for the little emperor's grandson." Yan Jingshu smiled at Jiang Chenghan after taking a sip of tea.

Jiang Chenghan was a little surprised, but he also felt that it was reasonable. He just remembered something, couldn't help but smiled and shook his head, and said, "It's hard for King Chu Xiang to spend so much effort."

Unlike Yan Jingshu, since he joined the Audit Department, he often While running outside, he was very clear about the location of the Chuxiang Prince's Mansion. Now that he thought about it, the site selection of the Ruijun Prince's Mansion would not be possible without the handwriting of Chu Xiangwang.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chenghan told Yan Jingshu his guess, and Yan Jingshu's expression suddenly became a little complicated.

Today when I went to Ruijun Prince's Mansion, Xie Huan didn't seem to have anything wrong, and he didn't mention anything about King Chuxiang, which made Yan Jingshu have some guesses about Xie Huan's relationship with Mu Chongyan.

But the facts proved that Yan Jingshu was right.

Only ten days after that, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15th. Xie Huan had already broken with Xie's family, and he himself didn't want to go back to Xie's house, so Yan Jingshu naturally couldn't let him celebrate the festival alone, so he invited him to his home.

At the banquet, because Xie Huan was old and in poor health, both Yan Jingshu and Jiang Chenghan only toasted him with a glass of wine and refused to let him drink any more, but Xie Huan was happy and couldn't help but drink more.

Fortunately, in order to take care of Yan Jingshu, Jiang Chenghan chose mellow fruit wine for the drinks at the banquet, so it doesn't hurt to drink more. It's just that Xie Huan can't drink too much, even if it's fruit wine, his face is still flushed when the banquet is over, and he is a little wobbly.

He rejected Yan Jingshu and wanted to send him back to the yard in person, but let Jiang Chenghan take good care of Yan Jingshu, and Xie Huan himself returned to the yard where he lived with the help of his maid.

After traveling abroad for many years, Xie Huan was used to taking care of himself, and he was not used to the close service of others, so when he reached the door, he asked the maid to leave, and pushed the door into the house by himself.

Although he drank a lot of wine and became a little drunk, he was still sober, so as soon as Xie Huan entered the room, he found that there was a very familiar strong breath in the room, but it should not be here at this moment.

Frowning slightly, Xie Huan rubbed his forehead in discomfort and helplessness, and said in a low voice, "Come out."

A chuckle of unconcealable joy followed, and the next moment, he saw a tall figure Turning out from behind the curtain, there is no one else except Chuxiang King Mu Chongyan.

Xie Huan glanced at Xie Huan but ignored him. He just walked to the table and sat down and poured tea to drink. Xie Huan didn't care, he still smiled, sat next to Xie Huan, stared

at Xie Huan and asked, "How did Wen Zhao know it was me?" Keep

you in the palace?"

Mu Chongyan was alone, and the emperor would specially invite Mu Chongyan into the palace to celebrate every festival in order to show his favor and win over.

Mu Chongyan said: "On the reunion day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I should be with my family and close relatives. My beloved blood relatives are all here, so I naturally have to be here too."

When Mu Chongyan said this, his tone was flat, his face He was still smiling, but Xie Huan couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable when he heard it. The words of chasing someone came to his lips, but he couldn't say it.

"...You, are you ready for dinner?" Xie Huan asked after moving his lips.

Mu Chongyan smiled and said: "I used it in the palace, but I'm not hungry now."

Xie Huan pursed his lips, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Xu saw that Xie Huan was especially easy to talk tonight, and Mu Chongyan began to push forward, "It's late at night, and there's a curfew on the street, so I wonder if we can stay overnight at Wen Zhao's place?"

Xie Huan, who was a little drowsy due to drunkenness and sleepiness, immediately woke up, frowned slightly, looked at Mu Chongyan, and directly refused: "No!"

There is indeed a curfew on the street at this time, but let alone the streets of the capital, Even the Forbidden City of the Imperial Palace, with Mu Chongyan's status, he can come and go as he pleases, so why would he need to spend the night abroad?

Although he was rejected, Mu Chongyan did not give up. He knew what Xie Huan was worried about, so he said, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you? You sleep on the bed, and I'll just sleep on the outer room."

Xie Huan It is still not allowed, this is not in Ruijun Palace, if Yan Jingshu and Jiang Chenghan find out, it would be good, but Mu Chongyan stood up without waiting for him to speak, went to the couch, folded his clothes and lay down on his own down.

There was no pillow on the floor, so he put his arms behind his head, said "good night" to Xie Huan, and then closed his eyes, as if I'm going to sleep first, and you are casual.

Xie Huanqi's face turned even redder. He stood up and wanted to pull Mu Chongyan up, but perhaps because of the strength of the wine, he stood up, his head was dizzy, and his body swayed .

In the end, although he was sleeping with his eyes closed, Mu Chongyan, who had been paying attention to Xie Huan from the corner of his eye, noticed his abnormality, jumped down from the collapse suddenly, and rushed over to support him.

"Look at you, don't you know that you don't drink well? This is how much you drank..." Mu Chongyan was counting on his mouth, but his hands gently and carefully helped him to the bed in the inner room, and finally thanked him personally Huan took off his coat and shoes, and after Xie Huan lay down on the bed, he covered him carefully with a quilt.

"...You, you don't allow it, do bad things..." Drunk and sleepy at night, although Xie Huan refused Mu Chongyan, he couldn't make any effort, so he could only warn him.

Mu Chongyan listened to the weak, seemingly tough but more coquettish warning, couldn't help but chuckled, tucked the quilt for Xie Huan, and said softly: "Don't worry, I won't bully you anymore, Never, go to sleep..."

The deep magnetic voice, because of the gentle tone, exuded a sense of peace of mind. Xie Huan's brain seemed to be hypnotized when he was sleepy, and his eyelids could no longer support them. go to sleep.

After Xie Huan fell asleep, Mu Chongyan didn't sleep on the bed in the outer room as he said before, but as promised to Xie Huan, he didn't do anything 'bad', just sat by Xie Huan's bed for a whole day. one night.

In the early morning of the next day, Xie Huan woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Xie Huan leaning on the bedpost with his clothes closed, and he couldn't help being taken aback.

Sitting up, Xie Huan breathed a sigh of relief when he found that his clothes were in good condition, and he had nothing to give up except for some hangover headaches.

At this moment, Xie Huan raised his head, facing a pair of dark eyes with a deep smile, "You haven't slept?"

Mu Chongyan smiled and said, "Squinted for a while, but didn't fall asleep." He noticed the movement.

Xie Huan got up and got out of bed, looked out of the window, it was already bright outside, he couldn't help frowning, "It's already this hour..."

Now that the servants of Jiang's family have already woken up, if Mu Chongyan wants to avoid people, he can't make a sound I'm afraid it's not easy to leave. Thinking in this way, when I look back at Mu Chongyan, I feel a little bit of difficulty and dissatisfaction.

Mu Chongyan knew what Xie Huan was upset about without asking, stepped forward and smiled reassuringly, and said, "Don't worry, if I don't want people to know where I am, I won't let anyone see it, but..."

"But what?" Xie Huan asked subconsciously.

Mu Chongyan rubbed his nose, looked at Xie Huan's expression, and said cautiously: "... But there is no need for this now. Jingshu and Jiang Chenghan should have known about my visit last night. It 's gone."

"How come?!" Xie Huan said in surprise.

"You don't know," Mu Chongyan told what happened last night, "After you fell asleep last night, Jing Shu was worried about your hangover and headache, so she ordered the servant girl to bring you hangover soup. Wake up, just open the door and send the servant girl away..." The servant

girl was shocked when she saw that it was not Xie Huan who opened the door, and the soup cup in her hand almost fell over, but Mu Chongyan took it quickly. Come over, and then reveal your identity before the servant girl called someone, so that the matter didn't become a big deal. But at that time, he didn't seal the girl's mouth, and the girl had already reported it to Jiang Chenghan after that.

Xie Huan really slept soundly last night, and didn't even notice that a maid came. Hearing what Mu Chongyan said at this time, he just felt his headache getting worse, "Forget it, let me explain to Jingshu and the others later Now you should leave as soon as possible, don't let others see."

However, it's fine to come in privately, and Jiang Chenghan would not mind if he wanted to, but he was a little embarrassed about staying in his room for a night, and he didn't know how to tell Yan Jingshu Explanation.

But Mu Chongyan still didn't respond, and said: "I've been hungry all night, at least let me have some breakfast before I go."

"No." Xie Huan flatly refused, and if the delay continued, Jingshu might come looking for her If he saw Mu Chongyan still in his room, then he would really feel ashamed.

Mu Chongyan was helplessly pushed towards the door by Xie Huan, and at that moment, the door was knocked from outside.
