19. Feel the king and know the business

After eating and drinking, the two chatted while drinking tea after dinner.

"So, what's your plan for the next step, brother? Your peach blossom Gu has been undone, so you don't need to be locked up in this mansion every day to draw troublesome things."

Pei Nianyu thought the same way:

"Well, in the past, I had no choice but to keep as little contact with outsiders as possible. Now, I might go out more and then fulfill my dream in my previous life."

"What dream?"

"Hmm... Let's open a dessert shop and breakfast shop or something... If you have money, you can open a big restaurant. I couldn't afford to open it in my previous life..."

Pei Niancheng smiled indifferently: "Brother, you can drive whatever you want now, and I fully support it. But..."

He seemed to think of the scene where Pei Nianyu was cruelly holding him down and not letting him eat, and he trembled slightly:

"Hey, well, brother, you don't have to pay so much for the food..."

Pei Nianyu smiled and said nothing:

"If according to your speculation, this delicious food can be exchanged for a lot of good things, of course it won't make any money..."

It's over!The Capital City of the Da Jing dynasty is about to be harmed by his brother...

——This is all the thoughts in Pei Niancheng's mind now.

However, Pei Nianyu was completely unaware of Pei Niancheng's mental activities, and said to himself:

"That's one. The second thing is..."

Speaking of this, Pei Nianyu seemed to have thought of something wonderful, and his complexion gradually softened:

"I want to... try to have a relationship. After all, this is something I have never experienced in two lifetimes."

Pei Niancheng was stunned for a moment, and then realized:

"You mean, Lou Yefeng?"

"nature."

Pei Niancheng approached and asked:

"By the way, what's going on between you and him. Now that you have accepted him as a servant, is this settled? But you still don't know if he likes you?"

Pei Nianyu looked up at him and smiled slightly:

"Of course he likes me."

Pei Niancheng pouted:

"Brother, are you so confident? The system I shared with you doesn't have the parameter of love value, and I think that Lou Yefeng... has always been a workaholic before, and it seems that he has never talked to you except work."Other things. It's really hard for me to imagine that he would take the initiative to like someone."

Pei Nianyu lowered his eyes and said:

"Of course I can see it. He's showing it too clearly. As long as I get close to him, his eyes will be messed up. I've never been so close to him before, so he hasn't shown it. Now..."

"Well, if you say you like it, then you can like it. But...brother, with all due respect, Lou Yefeng is... a little old, right? In the Dajing Dynasty, even thirty years old could be called an old man. BesidesHe has come and gone in wind and rain for so many years, and he doesn't know how to serve you softly, yet you don't despise him..."

Pei Nianyu disapproved:

"What's the matter with the old man? The old man loves others, and it's too late for me to cherish. As for serving me... I have so many maids around me, it's not enough to serve me?"

Then he shook his head and sighed deeply:

"Sentiment is beyond the surface, he...is willing to pay so much to save me, do you think he treats me badly?"

Pei Niancheng gave a "tsk" sound:

"But I see how you treat him. It's hard to say whether he takes care of you or you take care of him."

"It doesn't matter, I'm willing to spoil my old man, it's none of your business..."

Pei Niancheng was inexplicably stunned, and suddenly felt a little angry:

"However, brother, are you sure you like him? You don't have to fall in love with him just because he saved you. If you don't like him, you can find someone else, don't force yourself."

He thought that Pei Nianyu would confirm it, but he didn't expect that his brother suddenly said:

"Do I like him?"

Pei Nianyu hesitated for a moment, and began to think about this question.Afterwards, he gently propped up his chin with his hand, looked into the distance, and his thoughts drifted away with his gaze.

What he thought of was Lou Yefeng's carefully hidden thoughts, those little concerns that he had neglected many years ago, which had infiltrated into his heart unknowingly.

He has never experienced the taste of love in his two lifetimes combined, but now, he knows so clearly that beside him, there is such an affectionate person silently loving him.

In any case, he couldn't deny now that he liked it.

Lou Yefeng...

He chewed the name in his heart, and a smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Pei Nianyu didn't know what kind of expression he was showing, but Pei Niancheng who was on the side saw his brother's gentle and happy expression, and suddenly felt sour.

——Oh, the peach blossoms in those eyes are about to be exposed.

That's fine, don't ask about it, this must mean fell in love with it...

Pei Niancheng complained wildly in his heart, while Pei Nianyu stared out the window for a long time before suddenly waking up.

"Ah, what did you ask just now? Do I like Lou Yefeng? Hmm... It's hard to say, I think I have to observe again."

Pei Niancheng: "..."

I'll go, co-operate with my brother, I don't know this?

However, Pei Niancheng didn't bother to remind him that Lou Yefeng has been in unrequited love for so many years, and it won't be here any longer.

Pei Nianyu said seriously:

"Besides, even if I have a crush on him now, I wouldn't just tell him so hastily. In his current state...he doesn't dare to let me know what he thinks, so I just tell him like that.Don't even think about it, he will definitely refuse."

"Anyway, he doesn't resist my closeness to him now. Let me get along with him like this first. After he gets used to me teasing him from time to time, I'll find a chance to talk about it."

Pei Niancheng said coolly:

"Then what do you mean, you want to eat other people's tofu but don't want to be responsible?"

Pei Nianyu stood still:

"Why is it called irresponsible? He has a status, why can't I get close to him? Besides, I don't want to do that with him for the time being."

"Forget it, forget it, you can talk about this love any way you want, I don't care, anyway, people have already been eaten by you, and you can still run away."

"It is also."

After chatting with each other, Pei Niancheng still had important matters to attend to, so he led the shadow guards back to the palace first.

As for Li Han, who knelt at the door for a long time, Pei Niancheng coldly called him into Che Yu.As for what Li Han was fined afterwards, no one knows.

……………………

After seeing off Pei Niancheng, the palace returned to tranquility.

In the courtyard of Hanqiu Pavilion.

"Ye Feng, you said just now that you practiced some martial arts yourself?"

Lou Yefeng stood by the bamboo grove in the courtyard, seemed to lack confidence, bowed his head and said:

"...Yes. When I was in the punishment hall for the previous month, I was really bored sometimes, so I tried to use inner strength and mental methods to solve it, but I never thought that the inner strength can really be regenerated in the dantian."

Then he suddenly knelt down and said:

"At that time, the subordinate didn't know that the master would accept the subordinate as a servant, so he re-learned the internal strength. After the subordinate was picked up by the master, he dared not practice it on his own. I hope the master will not blame him."

——According to the general rules, as the bed partner of the prince, the servant is indeed not allowed to practice martial arts.

Before he told Li Han that he would recover 10% of his internal strength by the end of the year, but that was just his estimate.Without the permission of his master, he would never dare to practice again secretly.

Seeing that he didn't even dare to practice martial arts at this time, Pei Nianyu felt a little distressed, and quickly pulled him up:

"I agree, you can practice. Besides, I have obtained this internal energy for nothing, but I don't know how to use it. I'm still waiting for you to teach me, so you can naturally practice it. What's the big deal? Come on!"please tell me?"

"Subordinate... thank you master for your kindness!"

After finishing speaking, Lou Yefeng wanted to thank him again, but Pei Nianyu directly grabbed his waist and stopped his movement.

Seeing the uncontrollable surprise and gratitude that flashed in Lou Yefeng's eyes, he felt joy in his heart, and slowly approached him, asking:

"Since it's thanks, it's okay to say nothing. What do you want to thank your master for?"

Lou Yefeng was stunned for a moment, then he was speechless.

In the past ten years, he had said countless times of gratitude, but this was the first time he was asked by the master to "give me something to thank", and he was stunned.

And Pei Nianyu, taking advantage of his lack of reaction, suddenly kissed him lightly and pecked him on the cheek.

"Master...? I..."

"This is thanks, how?"

Lou Yefeng raised his head in surprise, but saw his master looking at him with a smile, seeming very happy.

Master is... teasing him?

His chest suddenly jumped up, his breathing was disordered, he was a little unbelievable, but at the same time he couldn't help secretly recalling the light kiss just now in the bottom of his heart.And his eyes quickly moved away from the master, as if he didn't know where to put them.

Seeing his panicked look, Pei Nianyu slowly smiled.

It's just that Pei Nianyu's good mood was suddenly interrupted.

"Master! This subordinate has something to do...uh..."

Pei Nianyu turned around and glared at He Qi.

"What's up?"

Seeing the ambiguous atmosphere between the two, He Qi knew that he had come at an inappropriate time, but just as he stopped to leave, he was stopped by his master, so he had no choice but to step forward bravely:

"Master, Lou Tong led the previous... matter, you said that you want to end the record left in the punishment hall, but you don't know how to write the conclusion?"

This obviously meant that Lou Yefeng was about to resign, how should he "make up" the reasons for resignation.

He Qi saw his master's attitude towards Lou Yefeng, so he came to ask this question.He Qi is different from Li Han's old-fashioned and old-fashioned. Although he has always been serious and responsible in his work, he never deliberately obeys the rules and refuses to give up.What he values is more often the matter itself, not the person.

He treated Lou Yefeng like that before because he was worried about Pei Nianyu's safety, now that his master was fine, he naturally had no intention of embarrassing Lou Yefeng anymore.

"Well, this..."

When Lou Yefeng heard this, the charm just now disappeared, and his whole body became tense.

Naturally, he knew very well in his heart that he had done some outrageous things before, and he did what he did, and he had no intention of evading responsibility.

But... After ten years of service, when he finally left the post, he left with such a stain of rebellion against the Lord, and he still couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart.

Pei Nianyu noticed his helplessness, gently put his hand on his, and held it:

"take it easy."

Then he said to He Qi:

"You just wrote it like this. I made a mistake when I mixed the fragrance that day. I accidentally mixed the fragrance into something with aphrodisiac ingredients. At that time, Lou Yefeng was by my side. I couldn't control it and raped him. Then because of thatFragrant and faint."

He Qi's face remained motionless, as if he had expected it:

"Then how does the master want to explain that Lou Yefeng transferred the shadow guard away that day?"

"It's fine to say that I was transferred. You are the only ones who know about his fake orders."

"Yes, this subordinate understands."

"You just say that Lou Yefeng no longer served as a shadow guard because he was raped by me and had to become a servant. In order to save me, he had to lose all his martial arts, so he resigned according to the treatment he received.dealt with in the name of

"Remember to pass it on to all the shadow guards after writing the epilogue."

Lou Yefeng at the side heard the words, and the fingers held by the master suddenly twitched. He looked at the calm but firm master next to him, and a feeling of warmth flowed through his heart.

——He could clearly feel that the master was protecting him with all his heart, carefully protecting him from the cold eyes of the people around him.

It never occurred to him that not only was he forgiven by his master, but he could also resign with a good name, so that when he faced his former brothers in the future, he would not have to be treated strangely by them.

He wanted to speak out, but found that his voice was slightly trembling and choked:

"Master... thank you..."

Pei Nianyu felt his emotions agitated, didn't say much, just wrapped his arms around him, then hugged him hard, and said in his ear:

"Ye Feng, since you are my man... I will never let you be wronged."

"Master... I..."

"You don't have to worry too much, just rest and recuperate. I have arranged another identity for you, and you will know tomorrow."

Then he turned around and said to He Qi:

"By the way, He Qi, the shadow guards must not be without a commander for a day. Give them a notice, and the commander handover ceremony will be held in front of Yin'an Hall tomorrow morning."

He Qi froze for a moment:

"……So fast?"

Pei Nianyu nodded:

"It doesn't matter. This is supposed to be yours. It doesn't matter if it's sooner or later. Ye Feng is now by my side as a servant, but he hasn't been formally notified. It's hard for him to deal with it. It's not easy for him to get through this procedure earlier.it is good."

"Yes, this subordinate will prepare now."

The succession ceremony of the commander, because it is an internal etiquette of the shadow guard, is not as complicated as those ceremonies in the outer court, it is just a simple cutscene.

In this succession ceremony, the master will show up and personally bestow the sword on the new commander, which is to show trust and reliance in front of all shadow guards.

Pei Nianyu looked back at the person who was still a little out of his mind, and his expression softened:

——This succession ceremony is not just a ceremony for He Qi, he also wants to announce in front of everyone that Lou Yefeng will be his sidekick from now on.
