Chapter 97 The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water
Shangguan Lanxi's green and white jade fingers pinched the pink skirt.
She had never felt a heartbeat, let alone take the initiative to approach someone.
Faced with Ye Qing's alienation, Shangguan Lanxi was at a loss and didn't know how to speak.
She thought about yesterday's scenes and what she had just told Mo Wanqing.
call!
Shangguan Lanxi, who opened her lips and took a deep breath to cheer herself up, was about to say something.
But the next moment, she looked at Ye Qing's starry eyes and forgot everything she wanted to say. She just wrung her fingers and begged softly: "You...don't hate me, okay?"
The proud daughter of heaven actually said these words to herself in a condescending manner.
Ye Qing couldn't help but be stunned.
He looked at his almond-shaped eyes full of pleading, and a thought came to his mind: "Could it be that this is the ancient love brain?"
He waved his hand helplessly and said, "Miss Shangguan, I don't hate you at all."
Shangguan Lanxi suddenly smiled and said happily:
"As long as we don't hate each other, then we are still friends!"
The girl was so easily satisfied that Ye Qing's lips moved slightly:
"Miss Shangguan, I've been busy with a lot of things these days and I need to think about it quietly. Please forgive me."
Saying that, Ye Qing cupped his hands and bowed behind him. Without waiting for Shangguan Lanxi to reply, he walked to the table, lifted up the skirt of his gray-white gown, and sat on the chair.
Shangguan Lanxi, who was immersed in joy, didn't mind Ye Qing's rudeness, but nodded happily and said:
"Yeah, it's okay. I miss you and I won't talk or disturb you!"
Then, Shangguan Lanxi walked quietly to the table, carrying the hem of her skirt, for fear of making any noise and disturbing Ye Qing, which was very cute.
Ye Qing saw this scene out of the corner of his eye. Even though he had no feelings for Shangguan Lanxi, he couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth because of the beauty's cuteness.
Enduring Shangguan Lanxi's unscrupulous inspection, Ye Qing closed his eyes and concentrated, pretending to think.
It won't be long.
Qi Heng knocked on the door and asked the two of them to go back.
As soon as I entered Zhang Xiuran's private room.
Zhang Xiuran said with a solemn face: "Tell him that I want to see him!"
"Yes!" Ye Qing cupped his hands and left quickly.
Shangguan Lanxi, who wanted to follow up, was grabbed by Mo Wanqing's arm as soon as she took a step. The beauty looked back and met Mo Wanqing's slightly swaying head and restraining eyes. She could only reluctantly pout.
Her lips curled up and she lowered her head in despair.
The next morning.
Ye Qing opened his eyes in the house given to him by Zhang Xiuran.
As soon as he sat up, he was startled. He clenched his hands into fists and looked at the table in the center of the bed with vigilance.
The shadow guard looked at Ye Qing with interest and said:
"how?"
Ye Qing relaxed and let out a long breath, his back already wet with cold sweat.
After dealing with Shadow Guard several times, Ye Qing also knew that the other person was not as indifferent as his eyes showed.
He got out of bed speechlessly and said: "It's scary to scare people to death. Next time you come, can you make some noise?"
The shadow guard calmly picked up the tea cup and drank the cold drink.
Ye Qing could see clearly that there was clearly disgust and contempt in the other party's cold eyes.
He sat at the table, poured himself a glass of water, and said:
"Master Zhang said that he wants to see you."
After getting what he wanted, Shadow Guard said:
"Tell him that I will go find him at midnight tonight."
Ye Qing, who was just about to agree, felt something in his heart and pretended to be unhappy:
"You are very skilled. If you want to see him, just go there. Why do you need me to send a message?"
"I have to think carefully about the case."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt cold eyes falling on him.
Ye Qing took a sip of water and raised his hands in a feigned panic:
"Why don't I go and send a message?"
"Hmph!" Shadow Guard snorted coldly, stood up, and walked out: "It's better not to be clever with this little trick."
People disappear when you see them.
The corners of Ye Qing's mouth rose, and he took another sip of water with satisfaction.
Then he took off his clothes and looked at the white silk outside the wound on his left arm, which showed some blood.
He went to the yard, fetched water, and wiped his body avoiding wounds.
He boiled the soup that Mr. Zai prepared for him and changed the medicine for the wound himself.
Then drink medicine, cook, and clean the yard.
It wasn't until almost noon that I stepped out of the yard.
I bought some pastries and meat and headed towards the adjacent Akihito Bo.
Simple and clean small courtyard.
Ye Qing stopped and stood, looking at the small fenced courtyard in front of him that was completely different from the surrounding brick and earthen courtyards. He looked at the leisurely steps in the courtyard, pecking at the golden pheasants that were pounding the ground from time to time. He looked at the dense and shady trees.
tree, looking at three exquisite bamboo houses.
He sighed secretly in his heart: "Mr. Xiao is such a wonderful man."
“In the Akihito Square, where every inch of land is precious, the yard is made as pleasant as a rural farmhouse.”
Boom!
The delicate bamboo door was knocked.
Ye Qing said loudly: "Junior Ye Qing, the subordinate officer of Huaiyang Mansion's execution room, pays a visit to Mr. Xiao and congratulates brother."
After a few breaths.
He Wen yawned, scratched his messy chicken coop, and walked out of a bamboo house with dark circles under his eyes.
"Brother Ye, I am not here..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Ye Qing holding large and small bags in his hands, and his tired eyes suddenly shone brightly.
"You came just in time. I happened to be worrying about what to eat for lunch."
"You just came here with delicious food. I, the Temple of the Five Internal Organs, will be blessed."
He Wen rushed over and opened the courtyard door.
Ye Qing smiled and said:
"I originally planned to go to Chaotian Palace together today, but I woke up late and brought something to apologize. I didn't expect that this gift is just right."
He Wen took the things and said with a smile: "Not only are the things just right for you, but they are also just right for those who got up late."
"Last night I wanted to write a poem about my family and my country. I thought hard about it all night, but I didn't finish a single word. I just started to write it."
"If you came this morning, your trip would have been in vain."
Speaking of this, He Wen's face was full of pain and he scratched his hair again.
"Writing poetry is really difficult for me. I would rather dissect corpses and write articles than write poetry."
Poems about home and country?
Ye Qing asked curiously: "Brother He, is it a poetry competition with others, or is it a course requirement that you actually have to write a national poem?"
He Wen, who did not want to deceive Ye Qing, said bluntly:
"I am preparing for the autumn Wei science examination, and I got the news that this autumn's examination question will include poetry."
"As a condition of agreeing to your Majesty's investigation of this case, your Majesty will tell me the poetry test questions so that I can prepare in advance."
"Lest Qiu Wei be held back by this poem, if I write a soy sauce poem that makes the whole room laugh, Aweng will have to break my legs."
With a bitter look on his face, He Wen looked at the braised food in his hands and saw that the smell was no longer fragrant.
The young man's originally puffed-up chest was bent, and his shoulders were drooped, looking like a wimp.
Ye Qing laughed dumbly, looked at his normal face, and asked:
"I happen to have some poetic talent, why don't I think about it for you?"
The extremely candid congratulatory message said bluntly:
"The prefect informed me that your poetic talent is unparalleled and asked me to ask you for help."
"However, I think it's still early, so I'll try it myself first. If I really can't write it, I'll ask you for help."
Then, he looked at Ye Qing with bright eyes and said with a sincere smile:
"Besides, the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water. What's more, I first met you, and now we haven't reached the stage of letting you ghostwrite."
Ye Qing was stunned by such frank words, and at the same time, a trace of shame flashed away in his heart.
