Bully

"Your Majesty." The man looked at Mingchuan with tenderness in his eyes.

Ming Chuan was stunned, he murmured something softly, his voice was scattered in the wind, as if he had never existed.But that person heard it, and he smiled at Ming Chuan, "It's me."

"Yan Ke." Ming Chuan finally called out his name clearly.

Yan Ke walked up to Ming Chuan, took the petals from his hair, and repeated, "It's me."

Ming Chuan's eyes suddenly turned red, "You're not dead."

Yan Ke was silent for a moment, then said, "Sorry, Yan Ke lied to His Majesty."

Ming Chuan just looked at Yan Ke, and Yan Ke felt a subtle pain in his heart, "Your Majesty, don't cry."

"I didn't cry." Ming Chuan smiled with red eyes, "I'm happy."

Yan Ke looked at Ming Chuan, and suddenly reached out to cover his eyes, and embraced him in his arms.Before Ming Chuan could react, he heard Yan Ke's voice beside his ear, saying, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry."

Under the Qionghua tree, Yan Ke poured Ming Chuan a cup of tea and told his story.

He was originally the young owner of Yuqiong Villa, and his father was the previous owner.His father had an apprentice who was ambitious, and in order to obtain Yuqiong Villa, he lured his family into the villa and massacred them.Yan Ke's parents both died in that massacre.Yan Ke was only a teenager when this happened.His uncle took him all the way north and hid him in the palace.Yan Ke stayed in the palace for several years until last summer when his uncle found him and said it was time to go back and take revenge.

"Later, the national teacher wanted to kill you, so you pretended to die and left the capital." Ming Chuan looked at Yan Ke.

Yan Ke nodded, "That's right."

"After you left, many things happened in the palace." Ming Chuan frowned, and gently blew the foam from the tea bowl.

Yan Ke looked at him and said: "I heard that Wei Ji forced the palace, and Princess Jingrong died. But I didn't expect His Majesty to leave the capital."

Ming Chuan smiled and said, "I am not Your Majesty anymore."

Yan Ke frowned, and didn't mention these things again, he said: "Where does the young master live now?"

"I'm staying at Sifang Inn now." Ming Chuan said with a smile, "I planned to leave after watching Qionghua."

Yan Ke said: "If you want to see Qionghua, what better place to go than Yuqiong Villa? Why don't you just stay with me, my lord."

Ming Chuan looked at Yan Ke and felt that he was really different from before.When he was in the palace, he was a eunuch, and he always wanted to make himself as inconspicuous as possible.But after becoming the owner of the villa, Yan Ke no longer has to hide his clumsiness, he has all the sharpness he should have, and there is a little more ease and calmness in his usual calmness.His demeanor is no worse than Xu Chengyu's.

Speaking of Xu Chengyu, Mingchuan suddenly remembered, "Xu Chengyu..."

"I have plans for this matter," Yan Ke said, "I will not disappoint Young Master and Young Master Xu."

Ming Chuan smiled and said: "This is a matter between you, I wish I should not interfere."

After meeting Xu Chengyu and Yan Ke, Xu Chengyu was also very surprised, and said with a smile, "In the past, I felt that the owner of the villa was not like ordinary people in the palace, and now I can see it."

Yan Ke said: "Young Master Xu is absurd."

Xu Chengyu smiled, and then stopped mentioning this matter, judging by his attitude, he didn't think this old acquaintance could bring him any benefits.Ming Chuan always felt that Xu Chengyu adapted better than himself to the change of Yan Ke's identity.

Ming Chuan stayed in Yuqiong Villa, and Yan Ke took A Jin over.Seeing the grand sight of thousands of trees and viburnum, Ah Jin was so happy that he went crazy. He watched Xu Chengyu every day when he was free, so he ran around with him, but he couldn't find him.

The spring is bright and beautiful, but after noon, Mingchuan is always sleepy.He has the habit of sleeping while he is on the road, as long as he settles down, he will always spare noon and use it exclusively for sleeping.

In the past few days in Yuqiong Villa, he even slept in the middle of the day every day, only feeling that the bones of his body were sleepy.

One afternoon, Mingchuan woke up from his sleep, and just as he was about to get up to drink water, someone handed him a teacup.Ming Chuan looked, it turned out to be Yan Ke.

Yan Ke stood by the bed, with a slender figure.He probably just met a guest, and he was very neatly dressed.Wearing a cloud brocade robe and a white jade crown on the head, the wide-sleeved gown is embossed with gold and silver threads, and a jade-folded square wins gemstone belt is tied around the waist.Mingchuan looked at him like this, and actually felt a little oppressive.

Yan Ke used a jade hook to close up the bed curtain and asked, "Your Excellency, are you used to living these few days?"

"Get used to it." Ming Chuan sat up from the bed, Yan Ke waited for Ming Chuan to wash up as before.Ming Chuan dodged his hand and said, "You are the owner of the villa now, you don't have to do these things anymore." Ming Chuan took the handkerchief from Yan Ke, rolled up his sleeves and washed.

Yan Ke looked at Ming Chuan, and suddenly asked: "Does the young master blame me?"

Ming Chuan looked at Yan Ke in surprise.

"I heard from Xu Chengyu that after I left, the young master and the national teacher had a very unpleasant quarrel." Yan Ke said: "The young master has suffered a lot."

Ming Chuan smiled and said, "I don't blame you, I'm glad you're alive. It's just..."

But as soon as he saw Yan Ke, Ming Chuan couldn't help but think of Rong Shang.

Yan Ke kept his eyes on Ming Chuan, as if he could understand what Ming Chuan was thinking.In fact, Ming Chuan always felt that Yan Ke knew himself better than himself.

"Let's not talk about this." Yan Ke changed the subject, "I heard from Xu Chengyu that after the young master came out of the capital, he went to many places?"

"That's right." Ming Chuan said with a smile: "I have traveled all over the Jiangnan area, and I have also traveled to southern Yunnan and Sichuan."

The atmosphere suddenly relaxed, Ming Chuan said: "I went to Yangzhou last autumn, and it happened to be the end of the banquet at Yuqiong Villa. If I had arrived in Yangzhou earlier, maybe we would have met by then."

Yan Ke listened to him talking about anecdotes from all over the world, and said, "I've always felt that you need someone to take care of you. I didn't expect you to travel so many places by yourself."

Ming Chuan said: "I didn't think of it myself, until now, when I'm out alone, I always have no idea."

"Has the young master ever thought about stopping and picking a place to settle down?"

Ming Chuan raised his eyebrows, "If I say yes, are you going to recommend your Yuqiong Villa?"

Yan Ke asked with a smile, "Isn't it good here?"

"It's good." Ming Chuan said, "It's a pity that I don't want to stop, I haven't finished watching the great rivers and mountains yet."

Yan Ke nodded with a smile, and didn't ask him what he would do after He Shan finished watching.

A few days later, Xu Chengyu came to bid farewell, and the business with Yuqiong Villa was almost done, and he wanted to return to Beijing to return to his life.

Ming Chuan poured him a cup of tea, looked at Xu Chengyu's hesitant face, and said, "Just say what you want."

Xu Chengyu stopped hesitating and asked, "Your Master, do you intend to stay in Yuqiong Villa?"

Ming Chuan shook his head and said, "Why do you ask that?"

Xu Chengyu looked quite admiring, "A person's life is very long, and there will be a day when all the rivers and mountains will be exhausted. You can't just wander away for the rest of your life. It is said that the owner of the villa has a deep affection for you. Has he ever thought of staying?"

Yan Ke never asked what he said, but Xu Chengyu asked it easily.Probably he doesn't have as many considerations as Yan Ke, and it's also possible that Xu Chengyu doesn't know Ming Chuan as well as Yan Ke does.

Ming Chuan shook his head and said, "Although Yangzhou is good, I may not be able to adapt to the four seasons here." He looked to the sky, "Even if I get tired of this kind of traveling life one day, I will not stop here come down."

"Where does the young master want to stop?" Xu Chengyu looked at Ming Chuan tentatively.

Ming Chuan picked up his teacup and said softly, "Maybe I'll go home."

There was joy in Xu Chengyu's eyes, but Ming Chuan said again: "Aren't you too anxious one by one? I have only been away from the capital for half a year, and I haven't seen one of the famous mountains and rivers yet. How can you get bored so quickly?"

Xu Chengyu said with a smile: "Since you are homesick, are you afraid that there will be a day when you will not return to your hometown?"

Ming Chuan raised his eyebrows, "You are really optimistic."

Xu Chengyu picked up the teacup, smiled without saying a word.

Ming Chuan and Yan Ke sent Xu Chengyu back to Beijing. On the day before leaving, Ah Jin grabbed Xu Chengyu's sleeve and looked at him eagerly, "You must come back and marry me!"

Xu Chengyu couldn't laugh or cry, took off a piece of jade pendant on his body, and said: "If you don't have someone new to marry after three months, and you still remember me, I..."

Xu Chengyu didn't finish talking, he just gave the jade pendant to Ah Jin.

Ah Jin said with teary eyes, "I will always remember you."

This sentence was weird, Ming Chuan pulled Ah Jin back and bid farewell to Xu Chengyu.

Xu Chengyu took one last look at Ming Chuan, and said, "Actually, I've been hesitant to tell you that since you left, the national teacher's life has been very bad."

For some reason, Ming Chuan suddenly choked up.He opened his mouth, but didn't say a word.
