Chapter 61 Squeak squeak.
"His Majesty."
In a trance, Li Jinyu thought he was having auditory hallucinations, and stared at the heater in a daze.
It wasn't until another call came from behind that Li Jinyu suddenly stood up and turned his head, looking at the man who had been away for four months in disbelief.
Huo Caiyu was wearing a half armor designed by Dong Jixiang, which was covered with dust and cut marks.I didn't wear any cotton clothes inside, only two thin ordinary clothes.
Huo Caiyu's four-month battlefield career has brought about a huge change, and his whole temperament is quite different from before leaving Beijing.
The brown eyes stared straight at Li Jinyu without blinking, and Li Jinyu couldn't help but want to back away as something fierce and dangerous was brewing inside.
Compared with the gentle and passionate Prince Regent, Huo Caiyu is now like a steel knife that has just been extracted from cold water, exuding strong danger and aggression around him.
Li Jinyu really took a step back subconsciously.
Huo Caiyu seemed to be aware of Li Jinyu's fear, his eyes narrowed, and his sharp demeanor retreated slightly: "Sorry, Your Majesty."
He had been fighting on the battlefield for four months, and he was used to the feeling of showing his sharpness, but he forgot that His Majesty had never seen such a rude and barbaric person, and he probably didn't like it.
Only then did Li Jinyu come back to his senses, and asked in surprise, "Why are you back? Are you all right?"
"Beiyue Pass has been guarded, and the army of the Cunning Kingdom has retreated." Huo Caiyu briefly explained the situation, trying not to focus on His Majesty, "I am returning to Beijing this time to discuss the follow-up plan with Your Majesty."
If it's just to discuss the plan, there is no need for him to come back in person.
He galloped all the way and rushed back all the way, just wanting to see his majesty.
He hadn't seen his soulmate for four months.If you can't take a look at your majesty, it's really hard to eliminate the pain of lovesickness.
Hurry up and finally arrived in the capital on New Year's Eve.Regardless of taking a break, Huo Caiyu went directly to the palace, outside His Majesty's bedroom.
I thought I was in a dusty body, and I wanted to make a good impression on His Majesty when we reunited after a long absence, so I planned to go home, clean up, put on proper clothes, and then come to worship.But Li Jinyu was roasting by the fire alone, his face was obviously a bit lonely, and he was still chanting his name...
Huo Caiyu was impulsive and couldn't help stepping in.
His Majesty was still as clear and good-looking as before he left the capital, but there was a hint of melancholy and loneliness between his brows and eyes.
His Majesty should be happy and free all the time, and these emotions should not appear.
"The frontier pass is temporarily handed over to Chi Zhongming, Your Majesty need not worry." Huo Caiyu was afraid that Li Jinyu would be worried about the peace of Beiyue Pass, so he added an additional explanation.
Li Jinyu looked at Huo Caiyu's disheveled temple hair, ragged beard, and bright but tired eyes, feeling a little sour in his heart.
Looking at Huo Caiyu's appearance, did he not close his eyes for several days and nights?
How hard is it to make Huo Caiyu, who is a master of martial arts, so exhausted?
He didn't know it before, but now he knows it.
Huo Caiyu rushed back all the time, probably because he wanted to see him sooner.
Li Jinyu pursed his lips and stood up suddenly: "It's late at night, I'm tired."
Huo Caiyu could see that His Majesty was satisfied, and even though he was reluctant to let go after hearing what Li Jinyu said, he still said: "The minister will leave for the time being, Your Majesty, please..."
"Stay."
Huo Caiyu was startled.
Li Jinyu lowered his head and whispered, "Sleep with me."
Huo Caiyu slowly opened his eyes wide, almost thinking that he heard it wrong: "Your Majesty..."
Li Jinyu suddenly felt a little embarrassed, but seeing Huo Caiyu's surprise eyes, he regained his courage, threw the melon seeds aside, stood up and walked to the side of the dragon couch, and repeated: "I'm tired."
Afraid that Huo Caiyu would go to bed in dirty armor, Li Jinyu emphasized, "Take off your clothes, it's so dirty."
Huo Caiyu pursed his lips, the lips were slightly upturned and then tried to press down, hurriedly went behind the screen, and took off his armor and coat.
The warm earth dragon is burning in the palace, and you won't feel cold even if you only wear inner clothes.
When Huo Caiyu was lying on the bed, he was still thinking that he must have the smell of sweat on his bumpy journey, so he must control himself not to get too close to His Majesty; however, he was lying on the long-lost dragon couch, with his head resting on the soft black gold cloud pattern forged pillow , beside him was thinking of his sweetheart, and the tiredness accumulated for several months suddenly rushed to his heart, causing him to fall into a deep sleep very quickly.
Li Jinyu lay beside Huo Caiyu, feeling quite strange inside.
It wasn't the first time he slept with Huo Caiyu, but this time it felt very different.
He felt more nervous than before when he had no distractions. A lot of content in the "popular science textbooks" emerged from the depths of his mind strangely, circling around him, making him concentrate on Huo Caiyu.
The remaining memory fragments from that night also reminded him that he had already had intimate contact with the man lying beside him.
This man had confessed his love to him a few months ago.
Lying on a bed like this, nothing will happen...
However, Li Jinyu thought about it nervously for a long time, but before Huo Caiyu could react, he heard a heavy snoring sound.
This guy actually fell asleep.
Li Jinyu raised his upper body in a daze, looked down at Huo Caiyu, and when his eyes fell on Huo Caiyu's dark circles, those messy thoughts instantly turned into contempt for him.
——Look at how tired Huo Caiyu is, what is he thinking in his heart?
Huo Caiyu's nerves have been tense for the past few months, how hard will it be?
The aggression on Huo Caiyu's body weakened a lot after sleeping, and Li Jinyu was able to take a serious look at this man.
The four months of military service made Huo Caiyu seem to be stronger. The muscles on the forearm exposed half of the cuff are strong, and the breathing is smooth and long.
Li Jinyu pursed his lips, and checked carefully, looking for any scars on Huo Caiyu's exposed skin.
Every time he saw one, his heart would be inexplicably pulled.
Huo Caiyu's Ziwei Emperor Qi has not changed significantly compared with four months ago, it is still only a thin layer.
Li Jinyu was relieved that there was not much reduction.
He lay down again, listening to Huo Caiyu's snoring, he thought he would definitely not be able to fall asleep - but lying next to Huo Caiyu, he suddenly felt a familiar sense of peace in his heart, and fell asleep very quickly.
This is Li Jinyu's first New Year's Eve in this world.
It's not time to change the day yet, and there are only occasional fireworks and explosions outside.
Even more violent firecrackers will not be lit until early in the morning.
But Li Jinyu curled up in Huo Caiyu's arms, feeling that he slept more soundly than every night before, even the deafening sound of firecrackers in the New Year did not wake him up.
……
When Huo Caiyu woke up, there was a curled up big dumpling in his arms.
For the first time, he thought he was in the barracks, and subconsciously wanted to sit up and get dressed, unlike the gorgeous top tent of the military tent, which made him realize that he had already arrived in the capital.
And last night, he actually fell asleep beside His Majesty.
That's too bad.
Huo Caiyu was a little annoyed.
It was rare for him to sleep with His Majesty, and he actually slept through the whole night without saying a word... I don't know if His Majesty was annoying him.
The rare and peaceful sleep, warm and familiar people in his arms made Huo Caiyu feel much more energetic.
He glanced sideways at His Majesty's peaceful sleeping face, a slight smile appeared on his lips, and continued to lie there without moving, waiting for His Majesty to wake up.
After waiting for a while, Li Jinyu woke up rubbing his eyes, and Huo Caiyu said softly, "Happy New Year, Your Majesty."
Li Jinyu sat up, still a little confused, subconsciously replied: "Happy New Year."
But soon he regained consciousness, looking at Huo Caiyu with a smile on his face, he was a little flustered for some reason: "You...woke up?"
Huo Caiyu looked at His Majesty's flustered look, and felt better, nodded: "Yes. Do you want breakfast, Your Majesty?"
If he remembered correctly, on the first day of the first lunar month, His Majesty had to go to the ancestral ancestral hall to worship the ancestors and the Temple of Heaven in the suburbs of Beijing to worship the gods, so he was very busy.
Li Jinyu also remembered this and got out of bed in a panic: "I'm going to wake up."
He stood up and put on his clothes, and he was suddenly glad that he had used enough spells to last two days for today's various sacrifices yesterday...otherwise his ears and tails would be exposed.
Worshiping God and the ancestors is the emperor's business. Li Jinyu called Chang Kang to wait on him and put on the dragon robe. He was about to go out when he suddenly remembered something and turned his head to look at Huo Caiyu who got out of bed and was getting dressed: " Huo Aiqing, you should sleep more."
There were still clothes left by Huo Caiyu in the palace, and Chang Kang took them over with a knowing look.
Huo Caiyu was putting on his sleeves, and was taken aback when he heard this: "Your Majesty?"
"You've worked harder..." Li Jinyu recalled Huo Caiyu's tired face last night, and his heart ached, but his face was unnatural, "Take a good rest."
Chang Kang next to him had a slightly strange expression - he knew that His Majesty was slept by the Regent.
Last night, the Prince Regent suddenly appeared and slept with His Majesty all night, so he couldn't help but think about it...
Seeing that His Majesty is in high spirits today, the Regent needs to rest more. Could it be that His Majesty finally regained his power and put the Regent back to sleep?
Chang Kang looked at His Majesty with a hint of relief in his eyes.
Huo Caiyu paused, the smile on his lips became more obvious, he thought for a while and nodded: "The minister leads the decree."
Li Jinyu smiled at Huo Caiyu, feeling even more uncomfortable for some reason, hurriedly excused that the sacrifice was about to start, and slipped out in a few strides.
Huo Caiyu stayed in the palace, watching His Majesty's back, finally couldn't help laughing.
Why is His Majesty so cute.
……
To offer sacrifices to heaven and ancestors, one needs to run around half of the capital city, and also go to the Temple of Heaven in the suburbs of Beijing.
Originally, when he went to the Temple of Heaven to offer sacrifices, the emperor would stay at the Temple of Heaven for one night and come back the next day; but Li Jinyu thought that there was still Huo Caiyu in his palace, so he couldn't stay at the Temple of Heaven, so he hurried back with his chariot after the sacrifice .
The last time Huo Caiyu left Beijing quietly, if Li Jinyu hadn't got the news from the black cat and ran to the door of Huo Caiyu's house at high speed, Huo Caiyu would have really left Beijing in a depressed mood.
This time Li Jinyu knew intellectually that Huo Caiyu would not leave after the war, but he was still a little worried psychologically.
Back in the bedroom, Li Jinyu suddenly felt at ease when he saw Huo Caiyu sitting in front of the desk in a royal blue robe and looking at the memorial carefully in front of the palace lantern.
Huo Caiyu raised his head when he heard the voice, and saw His Majesty startled slightly: "Why did Your Majesty come back tonight?"
He thought His Majesty was going to spend the night at the Temple of Heaven.
Li Jinyu subconsciously didn't want to say that he came back because of Huo Caiyu, so he forced a reason: "I... I can't sleep in the Temple of Heaven palace."
Huo Caiyu didn't know what to think of, suddenly chuckled and put down the memorial: "Your Majesty has worked hard all day."
Seeing that Huo Caiyu was in high spirits and seemed to have rested, Li Jinyu was relieved and coughed: "Huo Aiqing, since you're back, the government affairs should be handed over to you in a few days."
Everything can return to the previous state.
Huo Caiyu withdrew the smile slightly, and opened the chair for Li Jinyu: "It just so happens that I want to discuss this matter with Your Majesty."
Li Jinyu was stunned: "What are you discussing?"
"The army of the cunning country at Beiyueguan has retreated, and this war is considered our victory; but the ambition of the cunning country's wolves is not dead, and it will not last long in the future after all." Huo Caiyu brought a sheet of snow and gently outlined a few map lines. His voice slowed down, but With a trace of murderous intent, "I plan to...directly counterattack the Cunning Country."
Later in the original book, Huo Caiyu counterattacked the cunning country and turned the cunning country into a county of the empire.
Li Jinyu was not surprised that Huo Caiyu would have such thoughts, but he soon thought of another thing: "If so... who will be in charge?"
Huo Caiyu was a little surprised that His Majesty accepted the matter of counterattacking the Cunning Country so calmly, and suddenly he felt better, with a slight twitch on his lips: "If Your Majesty is willing to trust me, and I am willing to be the general, I will surely conquer the Cunning Country within a year. "
One year!
Li Jinyu froze on the spot.
He has only been in this world for a year.
In this year, he has transformed from an ignorant little hamster to a person who has his own independent thinking and can think. Looking back on himself before time travel, it feels like a lifetime away.
If Huo Caiyu decides to attack the cunning country, it means that he will not see Huo Caiyu for a year...
Li Jinyu subconsciously felt disgusted with this possibility.
However, putting down the chaos of a cunning country is a major event that benefits the country and the people. Li Jinyu didn't want to hold Huo Caiyu back, so he couldn't help but pursed his lips: "The regent decides."
Huo Caiyu put down the simple map, stared at Li Jinyu's depressed face, and asked suddenly: "Your Majesty is reluctant to part with you?"
"what?"
Li Jinyu raised his head suddenly, and met Huo Caiyu's undisguised scorching gaze.
He panicked and wanted to back away.The floor was covered with a thick carpet, and it was very difficult for the jujube chair to slide backwards. When Li Jinyu pushed hard, the whole person and the chair fell back together!
The expected fall did not come, and a pair of warm hands appeared on his back and neck in time to catch him firmly.
Feeling Huo Caiyu's body temperature, Li Jinyu stood up in a panic, and stammered: "I, I didn't..."
——Woo, what's going on, why does it feel like Huo Caiyu has changed a lot?
If Huo Caiyu used to be a sword sealed in a scabbard, after the baptism of war, now this sword has been completely unsheathed, showing a compelling edge.
Huo Caiyu used to express her emotions implicitly and restrainedly, but now she is so straightforward, frank and aggressive, which makes Li Jinyu unable to adapt for a while.
Huo Caiyu looked at His Majesty's flustered and slightly flushed face, as if it wasn't enough, and asked again: "Your Majesty, I asked you about that matter before you left the capital... Your Majesty, have you thought about an answer?"
Ask about that matter before leaving Beijing...
Li Jinyu's ears were instantly blush, and he couldn't help but recall that silent night at the gate of the Jiuzhong Palace, when the man in front of him solemnly exhaled "I love you" with his scorching breath.
The panic at that moment overlapped with the mood at this moment, making Li Jinyu not know how to react for a while.
Although four months had passed, Li Jinyu still didn't know how to answer.
If it is for his original purpose - to push Huo Caiyu to the throne, he just needs to simply refuse; however, Li Jinyu looked at Huo Caiyu expectantly, but he still couldn't utter the words of refusal.
But if you accept it... If you accept it, will the relationship between him and Huo Caiyu become partners?
Love is eulogized and scolded by human works of art...
Li Jinyu's eyes gradually became a little confused.
——Does he have the same feelings for Huo Caiyu?
Have no idea.
Human emotions are too complicated.
If he was still a little hamster who didn't understand anything, all this might be much simpler...
Li Jinyu met Huo Caiyu's persuasive gaze, his heart became more and more confused, and he almost wanted to turn around and run away.
Before he could figure out how to reply, Huo Caiyu suddenly withdrew his scorching eyes, and a faint voice came from his ear: "If your majesty hasn't figured it out yet, I can continue to wait."
Huh?
Li Jinyu raised his head suddenly, and met Huo Caiyu's gentle eyes.
He remembered Huo Caiyu's heart-wrenching drama and wanted to leave Beijing alone, so he was anxious and grabbed Huo Caiyu's hand: "Don't go!"
Huo Caiyu was slightly taken aback, looked down at Li Jinyu's clenched hands, and immediately reacted, a trace of guilt welled up in his heart, trying to soften his voice: "Your Majesty, I will not leave."
It seems that when I was thinking wildly and running away alone, I left a psychological shadow on His Majesty...
Now that I think about it, I was really stupid at the time.
Li Jinyu couldn't believe it: "Really?"
"True." Huo Caiyu clenched his hands behind his back and said softly, "I have absolutely no lie to your Majesty."
Fearing that Li Jinyu would not believe it, Huo Caiyu bent down slightly and looked at Li Jinyu's eyes with a sincere and warm voice, "I confessed abruptly. It is normal for your majesty to have concerns. If your majesty refuses, I will only be the loyal and loyal king regent of Dichao. It will disappoint His Majesty; and as long as His Majesty does not expressly refuse, I am willing to wait for Your Majesty."
Li Jinyu almost melted into Huo Caiyu's eyes, and murmured: "Then... I haven't figured it out all this time?"
"If Your Majesty has been unable to figure it out, then I will just wait." Huo Caiyu smiled resolutely and seriously, "I will not change my mind in this lifetime."
Li Jinyu opened his mouth, suddenly not knowing what to say.
Huo Caiyu has really changed a lot now.
He was more active and direct than before, but thoughtfully gave him room to maneuver.
If Huo Caiyu falls in love with a human woman, then they must be very happy...
Li Jinyu suddenly felt sad and guilty.
He had thought that Huo Caiyu might just be fascinated for a while, and maybe he would be fine after going out to fight for four months and calm down.In the past, when the owner raised him, he held him in his hand and loved him very much. He estimated that when the hamster died and left, he could still raise the next one after he was sad;
But seeing the stubbornness in Huo Caiyu's eyes now, Li Jinyu had a feeling in his heart that even if he died, Huo Caiyu might not "transfer his love".
Now Huo Caiyu took the initiative to give him a way out, letting him breathe a little easier.
Although it is shameful to avoid it, it is really useful.
It's better to push Huo Caiyu to the throne as soon as possible... Li Jinyu secretly made up his mind to draw up the imperial edict for the throne immediately after returning home!When Huo Caiyu defeats the cunning country, he will give him the throne in the name of Huo Caiyu's outstanding achievements and the fact that he has been poisoned!
As for replying to Huo Caiyu...let's talk about it at that time.
At that time, he will shake off all the shackles, and maybe he will be able to figure out how to choose.
Just thinking about it in her heart, Huo Caiyu seemed to have a sympathetic heart and asked: "Your Majesty, can the poison of 'Superior Son' be cured?"
"No, Mrs. Huo said that there is still a medicine missing."
Huo Caiyu frowned deeply: "What medicine?"
"It seems to be some kind of orchid on Maji Muxue Mountain..." Li Jinyu had almost forgotten the name.
"Maji Mu Xueshan?" Huo Caiyu frowned for a moment and then frowned again, "Cunning national medicine?"
After confirming with Li Jinyu, and taking Li Jinyu's pulse personally, Huo Caiyu was silent for a moment, then nodded cautiously: "I must break through the palace of the cunning king and bring back the medicine to Your Majesty."
In fact, Li Jinyu himself didn't care much about the poison, and it didn't affect his normal activities anyway, but seeing Huo Caiyu being so serious, he still felt a little warm in his heart.
"It's about your majesty's well-being, so I'll go home and discuss it with my mother." Huo Caiyu suddenly stood up and bid farewell to Li Jinyu solemnly, "Your Majesty cherishes it."
Li Jinyu was stunned for a moment: "Huh? Are you going back now?"
He has been running outside all day today. Although the amount of exercise is not too much for him and he is not very tired, it is only a few hours since he met Huo Caiyu again!
"Your Majesty's dragon body is important." Huo Caiyu stared at Li Jinyu's face, thinking of something, and a smile suddenly appeared on his lips, "Don't worry, I will not leave Beijing tonight, and I will look for your majesty tomorrow."
He suddenly paused, with a slightly serious expression on his face, and said, "This time I'm back in Beijing, Your Majesty should not reveal it to anyone."
Li Jinyu was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Huo Caiyu was doing, but he nodded obediently: "I see."
Huo Caiyu resisted the impulse to call His Majesty, said goodbye again, turned and left.
Li Jinyu sat down on the dragon couch in a bit of disappointment, seeing the sudden desertion of the bedroom, for some reason, he suddenly felt unspeakably depressed.
Lying down on the pillow, Li Jinyu buried his face in the pillow and rolled hard on the bed a few times.
Huo Caiyu seemed to be in a good mood today, but he was not in a good mood.
Rolling around on the pillow, suddenly a booklet was pushed to the ground by his body from under the pillow.
Li Jinyu got up and glanced at it, his face suddenly changed - Oops, it's that "popular science textbook" "Longyang Secret Classic"!
He asked Changkang to find him to supplement his common sense before, but he was reluctant to burn it, so he stuffed it under the pillow, and then he simply forgot about it...
——Huo Caiyu didn't read this book, did he? !
