Handsome Broken Legged Small Military Advisor [16]
After seeing the doctor, Chen Liguo was a little tired. He stayed up almost all night last night and then he was stimulated by Yan Zhiyao who was in the cupboard this morning. Now that he calmed down and he fell into a deep sleep.
Seeing that Chen Liguo was sleepy, Yan Jingyi didn’t make things difficult for him either. After giving him some medicine to soothe the nerves, he watched Chen Liguo close his eyes and sleep.
If it were someone who didn’t know him, they would surely think that Chen Liguo was sleeping peacefully when they catch sight of his serene sleeping face. Yan Jingyi looked at the dark circled under Chen Liguo’s eyes and his emaciated chin, his heart a little distressed. He kissed Chen Liguo’s cold lips and covered him with his quilt before he got up and went out.
Yesterday was a wedding day and the wedding feast continued unceasingly in the Royal city. It seemed every street and back alley was filled with lively firecrackers and joy. For this reason, no one noticed a very particular wedding.
The groom wore a mask and the bride was disabled. There were no family members and there were no guests.
Today, the bride was still lying in bed, but the groom had returned to court.
Yan Jingyi was an ambitious and talented person. A young emperor who had just ascended the throne would naturally want to hold all the unstable factors firmly in his hands.
Ji Shang is a variable beyond Yan Jingyi’s control, so he made a move against him, even though this move of his this time was likely to ruin him.
For the first time, Yan Jingyi was distracted when he went to morning court. His mind was completely filled with Ji Shang’s teary and sad face from last night. He still remembered Ji Shang’s trembling eyelashes, and his ignorant eyes full of pain.
Yan Jingyi was in the army since childhood, so he was always very self-disciplined, but he found that when he recalled Ji Shang’s appearance, his soul seemed to have flown out of the hall, and the people in front of him became nothing.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?" A slightly cautious voice sounded and it was only then that Yan Jingyi’s soul came back into himself, he said, "Hmm?"
"Your Majesty.......may you please look at this matter of marriage......." The group of ministers were quarreling, but they quarreled and quarreled and found that the emperor had no expression on his face, evidently not listening to them.
“Oh.” Yan Jingyi said lightly: “This matter has been decided.”
"Daring to ask how Your Majesty would like to deal with this matter?" The minister asked
"Since they want to marry for peace, then let there be a union." The historical trajectory did not change because of Yan Zhiyao’s departure, Yan Jingyi smiled, "For the future of Yan Country it is necessary to make some sacrifices. It may be assumed that Zhen’s younger sisters are willing as well."
When the ministers of the warring faction heard this, they wanted to urge again, but they saw Yan Jingyi wave his hand, "End of morning court."
The ministers looked at each other, apparently not yet clear about the temperament of the new emperor.
Chen Liguo was kissed awake by Yan Jingyi. He whined a few times and opened his eyes to see Yan Jingyi’s face.
"Your Majesty." Chen Liguo gasped and intended to reject Yan Jingyi’s embrace.
Yan Jingyi put his arms around Chen Liguo’s waist and gently touched Chen Liguo’s soft hair, saying, “Ziqing, have you awoken?”
Chen Liguo had no energy because of his fever. Looking at Yan Jingyi’s clothes, he knew that he had just left the court. He said, “Your Majesty’s joke has reached its end, it’s about time to put this minister back.”
Yan Jingyi did not reply, but just fixed his gaze on Chen Liguo until Chen Liguo’s face turned red an said, “Where does Ziqing want to go?”
“...” Chen Liguo looked down and said, “The minister wants to go back.”
Yan Jingyi said, "Return where?"
Chen Liguo: “Naturally it’s going back to my home.”
Yan Jingyi smiled and said, “How does Ziqing know that yesterday there was a big fire at the Ji manor?”
Chen Liguo’s eyes widened slightly.
Yan Jingyi said, "Fortunately Lord Ji’s luck is good and didn’t meet with any mishap."
Chen Liguo thought that Yan Jingyi would play a trick like Ran Qingkong from the last world and when he heard this, he felt a little relieved. But Yan Jingyi’s next sentence was: “I was worried about Lord Ji’s health, so I sent him to Tongyin Temple to rest and recuperation.”
Chen Liguo gritted his teeth: “Your Majesty is just fooling around if he’s Lord Ji, who am I?”
Yan Jingyi giggled and said, “You are my little wife, of course.” He said this and kissed him again. He only reluctantly let go when Chen Liguo, who kept resisting, seemed like he would faint at any moment.
Chen Liguo looked bitter and said, "If Emperor wants this subject to die, then this subject has no choice but to die, but why does Your Majesty disgrace this subject in every way possible. This subject is also a man, but forced to be a female, is this what a man of honor does?"
Yan Jingyi looked at Chen Liguo’s lips which were kissed red by him and then carelessly rubbed them with his hands, saying, “Ziqing, don’t be angry. I’ve made people fry the medicine, remember to eat it on time.”
Chen Liguo trembled from head to toe, he didn’t know whether he was annoyed or angry, He said, "You are simply insane."
Yan Jingyi, "Ziqing saying this is to let others hear, but it will behead instead." He finished saying these words, got up, and gave Chen Liguo his medicine.
When Chen Liguo caught sight of that pitch-black medicine bowl, he knew it was going to be bitter. He resisted, “I won’t drink.”
Yan Jingyi had a good temper and maintained a smiling face. He said, “If Ziqing doesn’t drink this medicine, it must be that the person who boiled the medicine definitely hasn’t boiled well. Shall I ask him to cut off his hands to make amends to Ziqing?”
Chen Liguo’s face turned blue then white, and then finally he gritted his teeth and said, “Bring it over.”
Yan Jingyi has already grasped the Achilles’ heel of the person before him. He is so soft-hearted and has read so many things, how can he ever escape from his own hands?
The medicine is really bitter. Chen Liguo drank it broken-heartedly. He can’t die if he doesn’t drink it, but he still, unfortunately, had to make things difficult for his tongue.
Yan Jingyi saw that Chen Liguo’s brow wrinkled and his smile became more and more gentle. After seeing Chen Liguo drink the medicine, he turned around and took a plate of pre-prepared plum from the table behind him and handed it to Chen Liguo: "I didn’t expect Ziqing to be so afraid of bitterness.”
Chen Liguo lifted his head, took a piece of plum, put it into his mouth and sucked on it.
Yan Jingyi said, "Stay here and have a good rest Ziqing, I will come to see you every day."
Chen Liguo was sucking on on a plum, which slightly eased the bitterness of the medicine. He said, "Your Majesty isn’t considering to take marry in an imperial concubine?"
If someone else said marry in an imperial concubine, Yan Jingyi would not take offense, but these words coming out of Chen Liguo’s mouth made Yan Jingyi’s face to lose its smile instantly. He said, "Didn’t I just marry one?"
Chen Liguo faintly blushed, "You—"
Yan Jingyi said, “Last night, you and I had a wonderful time. How did you forget today? Is it that I didn’t satisfy Ziqing? But that shouldn’t be, I remember Ziqing begging me incessantly to be gentler."
Chen Liguo gasped heavily for a few moments then ground his teeth, "Sh, shameless."
Yan Jingyi liked to see Chen Liguo’s ashamed appearance, and deliberately said a lot of obscene words, what waist is soft, legs are thin, the skin is really good to touch like clouds.
It wasn’t until the man before him turned completely red, showing a face of shame and indignation, that he stopped talking.
Yan Jingyi said, “Ziqing, I will treat you well.”
Chen Liguo did not speak but simply looked down sadly.
From this day on, Chen Liguo began his career as a rice worm again. He found that he was really fit for this kind of life where he only slept, eating and had sex.
The system scolded him for not making progress and wasting time.
Chen Liguo was a reasonable man, bold and straightforward: “How many people can be like me and waste time like this?”
System:"......"
Chen Liguo said, "You’re just jealous of me!"
System: "What am I jealous of you for?"
Chen Liguo said, “Jealous that I have a boyfriend.”
System:"......"
Chen Liguo said, “It’s just a little boring without any TV. Alas, I haven’t finished watching the soap opera from the last world, I’ll have to wait till there’s another opportunity in the future...”
Before he had finished, he heard System say coldly, “The murderer is the bride.”
Chen Liguo:"......"
System: “The motive for killing is because the male lead had an affair.”
Chen Liguo:"......"
System: "The mistress is the female lead’s best friend"
Chen Liguo:"......"
System: “You have no opportunity anymore.”
Chen Liguo didn’t know how he stimulated the system, and so without being able to make head or tails of this, was spoiled until he had a face of blood.
Something probably happened in the court these days for the time that Yan Jingyi came decreased by a lot. However, although the time was reduced, he still came every day, bringing some fresh news and interesting books for Chen Liguo.
As an emperor, of course, he was very clear about the secrets of the palace. For example, Yan Jingyi told Chen Liguo today that in these few days several princesses, in order to not get married off, tried to hinder each other.
Chen Liguo listened with relish, but then he heard Yan Jingyi mention that a certain princess, in order to not be married off to make peace, hurriedly went to find someone else to marry. Then he suddenly spat out a meaningful sentence: "If Princess Huige is still here, I’m afraid that the candidate to be married off would be her."
The smile on Chen Liguo’s face froze.
Indeed, Yan Zhiyao is a princess with a suitable age and has no important background. If not for the act that she was already gone, then this time she certainly wouldn’t have been able to escape the fate of marrying for peace.
Yan Jingyi saw the slight decrease of the smile on Chen Liguo’s face and said, “Are you interested her?”
Chen Liguo said coldly, “I’ve already said that I only think of her as my sister.”
Yan Jingyi forced a smile and said, “My people have said that she is pregnant. These days, it seems that she is preparing to leave the royal city plans go to the guard’s hometown to give birth.”
Chen Liguo’s heart was very tight. Yan Zhiyao’s destiny completion bar has reached more than eighty, still a dozen points short. He figures that after a few years and her children to grow up, it would be full.
It was difficult to find people in ancient times. If Yan Zhiyao left the Royal city, he would not be able to help her at all if anything happened.
Yan Jingyi said, “What’s wrong, uncomfortable?”
Chen Liguo gave him the cold shoulder and didn’t say even a single word.
Yan Jingyi seems to be provoked by Chen Liguo’s attitude. He picked up Chen Liguo, who was sitting in a wheelchair and threw him into bed. His motions and attitude were both rough. He said, "Ji Shang, in the end, have you really thoroughly understood? You are my man—forever only mine.”
Chen Liguo looked scared and said with a trembling voice, “Don’t......”
Yan Jingyi sneered: “We’ve done this for so long, yet you’re still not used to it. It seems that I am too gentle with you.” With that said, he pressed into him.
The next day, Chen Liguo did not get up from bed until it was almost noon.
After washing his face and mouth, he had lunch and looked for another book to read.
He was reading it enthusiastically, but he heard a soft cry outside the door: “Your Excellency.”
Chen Liguo said, “Come in.”
The person who came was a little eunuch and was holding a box in his hand. He looked somewhat unfamiliar and seemed to have come to serve Chen Liguo. The little eunuch carefully entered the door and even more carefully put the thing in his hand in front of Chen Liguo. He said, “Master said, this is a gift for Your Excellency...”
Chen Liguo hummed in response.
The little eunuch didn’t stay much and after he brought the box in, he left.
Chen Liguo looked at the box and thought about it for a while but couldn’t figure out what it was. He wheeled over on his wheelchair to the table, reached out with his hand to open the lid. After seeing the contents of the box, the entire person revealed a queer expression.
Chen Liguo:"......"
He was silent for a while and then looked at the door again, and after making sure that no one would come in again, he carefully picked up one of the long slender objects and touched it for a bit then lamented, "Truly willing to part—this should be Hetian jade, System, say, how much money is this one box worth?"
System: “It’s mosaiced, I can’t see anything.”
Chen Liguo said, "You’re lying to me."
System: “Yeah, I lied to you.”
Chen Liguo: “.......” He took the brush with some curiosity, touched the small one and then touched the big one, very eager to try it out. If it wasn’t because he wasn’t afraid of being caught breaking Ji Shang’s character, Chen Liguo felt that with the wave of the brush, he could immediately write a romantic work with this brush.......
System was apparently about to be crushed by Chen Liguo’s wretched conduct, and he said, “Are you incapable of being normal?”
Chen Liguo shyly said, “It’s been too long.”
System:"......"
Chen Liguo: “Before, all I could do was to rub myself. Alas, after more than a decade, I felt really miserable.”
System:"......"
Chen Liguo played for a while and then reluctantly put the brush back then prepared to read that tasteless book again. But just as he put down the brush, it suddenly occurred to him that putting it here seemed to be illegal. Chen Liguo sighed, "Really hate to part with this."
Just as the words fell, with a single wave of his hand, the box of brushes were completely smashed onto the ground.
The brushes were thrown to the ground, almost all of them were broken. Chen Liguo swept his eyes over the debris and his tears almost fell.
When Yan Jingyi asked people to bring this, he had already guessed Ji Shang’s reaction. Sure enough, when he went to Ji Shang’s residence in the evening and saw the broken brushes and a ghastly pale Ji Shang.
Yan Jingyi wasn’t angry and said in a tone that was neither miserly nor mild, "Why are they all smashed?"
Chen Liguo pretended to be angry and said, “Why do you humiliate me like that?”
Yan Jingyi said lightly, “How did I humiliate you?”
Chen Liguo shook his hand and pointed to the broken jade pieces. He said, “You know I can’t serve my country anymore, and yet giving me these things, you, you!” His ashamed face turned red all over, his eyes gleaming.
This angry look particularly made Yan Jingyi’s heart beat. He stooped down, grabbed Chen Liguo’s waist, and then lifted the entire person up.
Chen Liguo’s heart tightened and he said with a trembling voice, "Yan Jingyi, just to what point do you want to humiliate me to?"
This was the first time he called Yan Jingyi’s name, it could be assumed that he was forced to the point where he could not retreat.
Yan Jingyi said with a smile: “Ziqing, isn’t that what you wanted? Why are you so angry when I give it to you?”
“You are babbling nonsense!” Chen Liguo’s eyes were red. “When did I want these things!”
Yan Jingyi said, "Ha.......aren’t you unwilling to be joyously in love with me? I am giving you a chance to choose. Do you want these cold things, or do you want me?"
Chen Liguo scowled, "What nonsense are you saying?"
Yan Jingyi tapped Chen Liguo lightly with his finger, and repeated indifferently: “Do you want me or do you want these things?”
Chen Liguo’s chest fluctuated violently and he said, “Yan Jingyi, are you trying to hound me to death?”
Yan Jingyi was unmoved.
Chen Liguo closed his eyes and resolutely grit his teeth, apparently refusing to make a choice.
Yan Jingyi’s eyes sparkled and he said with a smile, “Since you won’t choose, then I’ll conveniently assume that you want both.” When he finished saying this, he put Chen Liguo on the bed, then turned around and went out. After a moment, he came back with another box identical to the old one in his hand.
He said, “I just knew that you’d smash it and prepared an extra one.”
Chen Liguo looked at him, his previously bleeding heart revived itself once more——Yan Jingyi really is too cute.
Yan Jingyi pointed to the box and said, “I won’t make things difficult for you either, will you choose on your own and let go on your own, or should I choose for you?”
Chen Liguo pursed his lips, his complexion turning dreadfully pale.
Yan Jingyi’s slender fingers stroked the row of brushes and in the end, stopped at the last thickest brush. He smiled and said: “I want to see you use these brushes to write works.”
Chen Liguo stared at the pen, his eyes practically dripping blood. He clenched his teeth and lowly said, “What do you want me to write?”
Yan Jingyi smiled and said: “Just a letter of love.”
Chen Liguo picked up his brush and caressed it carefully in his hand, saying, “Wait a day for me.”
And so Yan Jingyi waited a day for Chen Liguo.
The next day, while chatting with the system as usual, Chen Liguo still hadn’t fulled expressed himself and said, “Come and see what I’ve written.”
System: “...” He didn’t want to see it.
Chen Liguo: “Ah, I love you, I really love you, Yan Jingyi, you are my sweetheart.”——It was all written in Martian, guaranteed by Yanjin[1].
System:"......"
Chen Liguo: "Or is there a new way of doing this?"
System:"Yan Zhiyao。"
Chen Liguo:"(⊙v⊙)Hmm?"
System: “Are you still doing the task?”
Chen Liguo:"Do do do do"
Life is born from hardship and dies from peace. Sometimes living too well isn’t a good thing.
With System’s relentless reminders every day, Chen Liguo began to think about how to find news about Yan Zhiyao. Starting with Yan Jingyi would certainly not work. If he asked an in the event that Yan Jingyi got angry and Yan Zhiyao got implicated then he would be in big trouble.
But aside from Yan Jingyi, the palace people here didn’t speak a single word to him at all. Chen Liguo now keenly became aware that it seemed like he didn’t have anything that he could do.
However, just as Chen Liguo was being distressed, there was a huge turn of events——Yan Zhiyao had actually managed to get into the place where Yan Jingyi locked Chen Liguo up.
When she came into the room dressed in eunuch clothing, Chen Liguo was completely stricken dumb with amazement.
Yan Zhiyao called out quietly, "Lord Ji."
Chen Liguo also lowered his voice and said, “How are you here? Didn’t you leave the Royal city?”
Yan Zhiyao gritted her teeth, "Lord Ji, I can’t leave you here alone, I will help you get out."
Chen Liguo immediately thought about how Yan Zhiyao had cursed him as disgusting before. It could be reckoned that it had been a facade that Yan Zhiyao made to deceive Yan Jingyi. Who would have thought that Yan Jingyi would actually really believe it.
Yan Zhiyao looked at Chen Liguo’s appearance and her tears slowly flowed out. She said, “Lord Ji, what you have done for me, I know it all, I’ve troubled you[2].”
Chen Liguo was very happy to see Yan Zhiyao and was even more happy to see that the progress bar on her head was close to ninety. However, he knew how difficult it was to be rescued. Once they are discovered by Yan Jingyi, the consequences would be unthinkable. He said, “Zhiyao, I don’t know how you got in, but don’t come back here. Leave here, the farther you go, the better.”
Yan Zhiyao shook her head heavily and said, “Lord Ji, I already have a way. Wait a few days for me. On the day of that incapable ruler’s big wedding, I’ll save you.”
“Big Wedding?” Chen Liguo was stunned.
Yan Zhiyao said, "Lord Ji doesn’t know? That incapable ruler is going to marry an empress."
Chen Liguo’s heart was a little tight, but it was only a moment. He quickly adjusted his own state. He said, “Even so, it’s too dangerous.”
Yan Zhiyao said, “Could it be that you are willing to stay here all your life? Lord Ji, Zhiyao is not afraid of death. Are you afraid?
Chen Liguo smiled bitterly: “I am afraid that you will die.”
Yan Zhiyao laughed and said, “I can’t stay long. I’ll see you in three days.” After she said that, she left.
Chen Liguo thought in his heart that his concern for Yan Zhiyao hadn’t been for nothing.
No wonder Yan Jingyi has been coming less often recently. It turned out that he was preparing for a wedding, He was preparing for the wedding, and he even concealed it well, Chen Liguo didn’t know a single thing about it.
During the three days waiting, Yan Jingyi came again, but this time they actually didn’t make love and Yan Jingyi just spent the night with Chen Liguo in his arms.
In the small hours of the morning, Yan Jingyi said, "If you were a woman, how good would it be."
Chen Liguo said in his heart: If I were a woman, perhaps I would like women, how would you ever get a turn?
Yan Jingyi called out, "Ziqing."
Chen Liguo said, “When will you let me go?”
Yan Jingyi’s arms that were wrapped around Chen Liguo tightened, "You still want to go?"
Chen Liguo... You scumbag, you’re going to get fucking married and you’re still not letting me go?
Although Chen Liguo didn’t speak, Yan Jingyi understood the meaning of his eyes. He murmured, “I won’t let you go, you don’t ever think about wanting to go.”
Chen Liguo said in his heart: With the system at hand, if this father wants to go then this father will go.
He thought about this then heartlessly fell asleep and instead, it was Yan Jingyi who had his eyes open and thought about it the whole night.
Today was Yan Jingyi’s big day, Chen Liguo slept so sweetly that he didn’t even know when Yan Jingyi had left.
Chen Liguo woke up on time, dressed and washed, then looked out of the window and at the sun. He reckoned that it’s almost the time that he and Yan Zhiyao agreed upon.
The author has something to say:
The brush is very harmonious = =
[From the comments, it seemed that the Author’s note was referring to brush play? As in Chen Liguo used the Jade brush handle to comfort himself, but it’s not too clear ¯(ツ)/¯]
