The moment the door was pushed open, the lips that were only touching lightly parted quickly.Ye Zuolan panted heavily as if waking up from a dream, only to realize that she had even forgotten to breathe just now.

"Are you okay?"

Tang Ruilang's chuckle came from next to his ear, and then Ye Zuolan was moved back to the bed.

At the same time, through the translucent floor-to-ceiling screen placed between the inner and outer rooms, Ye Zuolan saw the person walking in—his sister Ye Yueshan.

"Young Master Tang, please drink tea."

Ye Yueshan held a mother-of-pearl lacquered wooden tray in her hand, on which was a white jade tea bowl shaped like a full moon.

Tang Ruilang thanked him, reached out to take the tea bowl, but turned to look at Ye Zuolan: "This is—?"

Only then did Ye Zuolan come back to her senses from a daze, and announced her sister's boudoir name.

"So it's Zuolan's older sister, so she's also my older sister." Tang Ruilang nodded to Ye Yueshan with a smile, and praised: "Zoran often mentions you, and when I saw you today, you're even more beautiful than I imagined."

Ye Yueshan was raised in a deep boudoir since she was a child, she had never heard such a compliment before, she couldn't help but her cheeks were flushed, and she hid her face shyly.

According to Ye Zuolan's temperament, at this time, she should have said something narrowly.But at this moment, looking at Rui Lang and Yue Shan, he felt a bitterness welling up in his chest, and he couldn't say anything.

It was Ye Yueshan who noticed his strangeness: "Are you uncomfortable? Why is your face so red?" As she said that, she wanted to touch his cheek.

Ye Zuolan forced a smile and said, "You still talk about me, sister, don't you have the same face?"

Ye Yueshan yelled "I hate it", and took another sneaky look at Tang Ruilang, and then reluctantly walked out.

Only Ye Zuolan and Tang Ruilang were left in the room.After a moment of silence, Tang Ruilang suddenly leaned over and put one hand on Ye Zuolan's pillow.

Ye Zuolan thought that he was going to continue the incident just now, and shrank back in fright.On the contrary, it made Tang Ruilang laugh out loud.

"Didn't I bite you just now, am I so scary?"

This is obviously more "scary" than a bite.

Ye Zuolan retorted like this in her heart, but guessed that this might just be a joke by Tang Ruilang.He thought for a moment, then deliberately changed the subject.

"...How about that Zhang Cheng?"

"It has been sent to the court."

Tang Ruilang's eyes finally turned cold.

"However, his elder brother, the medical worker named Zhang Quan, has been found dead in an abandoned thatched hut outside Lingzhou City. According to the documents left at the scene, he claimed that when he was in the good medical clinic, he had a relationship with a A maid from the palace secretly passed the song. But that maid was punished to death for some reason. Obviously, he put this account on my second sister."

When Tang Ruilang spoke, Ye Zuolan kept carefully observing the subtle expressions on his face.After he finished speaking, he asked quietly, "Do you believe it?"

Tang Ruilang stared at him wordlessly for a while, without nodding or shaking his head.

"I decided to start practicing martial arts."

He changed his posture, leaned against Ye Zuolan's pillow again, and sent his eyes to the top of the light blue curtain.

"I'm afraid it's not enough to rely on guards alone. If a person can't even protect himself and live safely...then why should he have any extravagant ideals and ambitions?"

Having said that, he turned to look at Ye Zuolan again: "Do you want to learn?"

To be honest, Ye Zuolan could not fully understand Tang Ruilang's proposition.However, he remembered the phrase "like a person who drinks water and knows how warm it is", and seemed to realize something.

So he asked Tang Ruilang again: "Who will teach you?"

Tang Ruilang raised the corner of his mouth: "He is from Tianwu Palace, a former senior brother of Prince Anle."

"But you study in Guozixue all day, where do you get the time?"

"It will definitely be adjusted...Maybe, in the future, I will only study in the morning."

Speaking of this, Tang Ruilang's eyes were full of confusion, as if even he himself didn't know what direction it would develop in the future.

For a long time after that, no one knocked on the door to bother me.Regardless of Ye Zuolan's objection, Tang Ruilang kicked off his shoes and got into bed with him.

The two of them talked about the things they talked about on weekdays.However, with Tang Ruilang's intimacy first, Ye Zuolan's mind has already become a mess.He made several jokes by answering irrelevant questions, Tang Ruilang suddenly reached out to hold his cheeks, and quickly brought his lips together.

Ye Zuolan's eyes were almost blackened until Tang Ruilang backed away before begging for mercy: "Don't be like this...I, I'm dizzy."

Tang Ruilang smiled and said, "You're just dizzy, my heart is about to jump out of my chest."

As she spoke, she reached out and slid her hand towards Ye Zuolan's chest, touched it twice, and found the position of her heart: "Oh...you're not too slow!"

Ye Zuolan's face was as red as blood, and she said in embarrassment: "The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water? Where did you learn this crooked way? How can you... apply it to me?!"

"Zuo Lan, why is this crooked?" Tang Ruilang lowered his eyes and looked at him: "If you hadn't been injured that day, I would not have realized that you are in my heart...you have become so important."

Shyness made Ye Zuolan turn her head away quickly, and after a while, she asked in a low voice, "...How important is it?"

Tang Ruilang thought for a while, then supported his head, and leaned in front of Ye Zuolan.

"Remember what I told you about Prince An Le? His favorite person is also a man... the head eunuch beside him, Qi Yunchu."

"Eunuch?" Ye Zuolan was taken aback: "But those people aren't...not..."

"Some things are missing." Tang Ruilang nodded frankly: "However, this is not a big problem for them."

"..." Although she didn't quite understand what Tang Ruilang meant, Ye Zuolan still blushed.

Tang Ruilang took out the amulet hanging around his neck and rubbed it in his hand.

"Back then, King Anle's life and death were uncertain during the campaign against Yunmeng Marsh. Entrusted by the emperor, Qi Yunchu led the Nei Feilong Wei Jingqi with a hundred men, who rushed thousands of miles to help and join the army. I was forced into the depths of the swamp...but what I found back was just a muddy corpse wrapped in armor..."

Having said that, he gave a wry smile.

"Three months later, Qi Yunchu's class teacher returned to the imperial court... and his hair was covered with gray hair."

White hair?Ye Zuolan vaguely remembered a saying that a person's hair would turn white when they suffered a huge blow, but that must have been a terrible accident.

Just as he was thinking about this, Tang Ruilang whispered again: "...Although I'm afraid it's not as good as the relationship between them. However, when I saw you hurt, my mood may be similar to that of Qi Yunchu back then."

Ye Zuolan's ears became hot when he heard this, and he said angrily: "Prince Anle and the others are all in their 20s. They really understand what is love and what is love. But you and I may not even live to half their age. , don't you think it's ridiculous?"

Tang Ruilang was about to answer when another person came to serve tea outside the door.

After Tang Ruilang came to visit, Ye Zuolan rested at home for another seven days.During these seven days, the family was given medicine and food supplements.I just wish I could eat six meals a day, and put the meat directly on him.

Lying on the bed, apart from eating and sleeping, Ye Zuolan had nothing else to do, the rest was just wild thoughts, thinking about the future of herself and Tang Ruilang.

Prince Anle Zhao Nanxing loves a man, so could it be that Tang Ruilang was also influenced by Prince Anle to make such a move.

It may be justifiable for Swiss Franc to be like this; however, I have never been influenced by the Longyang incident, so it is not only not easy to take this step, but it may also bring incalculable and terrible consequences.

I've never been in love with a man—Ye Zuolan reminded herself that way.

But he soon discovered that it was not just a man, he had never had any thoughts about any woman.

It's not that young people are heartless, but young and heartless.

Ye Zuolan suddenly remembered Tang Ruilang's hand on her chest.The slight pressure exerted by the warm palm did make him feel the beating of his heart more clearly.

The heart has been awakened.

------

After seven days of unbearable depression, Ye Zuolan finally regained her freedom.

Early in the morning, he returned to the Imperial College in his family's ox cart, and went straight to Liming Hall before he could return to the dormitory.After half a year, he had some good schoolmates in the hall.After exchanging pleasantries with each other, the doctor entered the hall.

Today, the re-speaking content is "Book of Rites The Doctrine of the Mean".Although Ye Zuolan has recited this scripture thoroughly, he still has some doubts.He knew that he had to listen carefully to the doctor's discourse, but for some reason, his mind was muddled, and he couldn't help but let his thoughts drift away.

To the northeast of Liming Hall, 150 steps away, is Zhaode Hall of Guozixue.At this moment, Tang Ruilang should also be in class.

According to the previous practice, I will definitely meet him in the afternoon.At that time, what kind of reaction will he have, what kind of things will he do, what kind of words will he say?And how should you respond?

This is not the first time Ye Zuolan has been distressed during this period of time, but it will be the last time.

After class at noon, all the students in the six halls went to the dining hall to have a meal.During the dinner, Ye Zuolan secretly looked towards Guozixue three times, and found that Tang Ruilang was not among them.

Could it be that something happened to the Tang family?

The more Ye Zuolan thought about it, the more worried she became, and immediately asked the students around her.

If you don't ask, he just found out after this question: Just two days ago, someone from the Tang family moved all of Tang Ruilang's things back.Tang Ruilang officially left Guozixue and transferred to Zichen Palace Hongwen Hall to study.
