Why can't the main male protagonist get rid of it?

Chapter 154

Ye Xingze didn't expect Fu Qi to say it so plainly, he paused, "How do you know?"

"In this palace, you can come and go freely. The only one your majesty doesn't want to delve into is the empress dowager." Fu Qi probably spoke slowly but clearly because of his frailty. , and only the Empress Dowager.”

"You have no complaints?" Ye Xingze asked.

"I'm just an ordinary person who has inherited the shadow of my sister and was able to be taken care of by His Majesty. How can I have any complaints?" Fu Qi spoke without ups and downs, and even smiled a little, as if he really didn't have any complaints at all. He was able to live He was very satisfied, "I came this time to thank you, after all, I don't know when I will die quietly."

Without waiting for Ye Xingze to say anything, Fu Qi handed over a jade pendant, the whole body is shiny and smooth, with light blue nets hanging down, "This is the jade that everyone in the Yuan Chi Clan will have, and it has no name. Take it with you , can avoid hundreds of gus."

"I don't have anything else, my son, don't dislike me." Fu Qi coughed again, his lips were stained with water, and the full moonlight came in, illuminating Fu Qi's fair complexion as if it was shining.

Things like Gu worms are a mysterious existence in this plot. Ye Xingze can only get some plot points, but the details will be very vague. After all, his task is not to do anything, so Ye Xingze only knows that Gu worms are The things that belong to the Yuanchi clan have various uses, so I don't know anything else.

"How could it be?" Ye Xingze put the jade away, and asked tentatively, "I just don't know what this Gu worm is. I have heard people's words, but I have never seen it with my own eyes."

"Speaking of which, I have never seen it before. Raising Gu requires a specific place. The environment in this palace is very different from that of the Yuanchi clan. I have been here since I was four years old. Seeing Gu worms," ​​Fu Qi suddenly tilted his head and smiled with the innocence of a young man, "Since the gift of thanks has been delivered, I will not disturb the rest of the prince."

"Alright, how do you want to leave?" Fu Qi came with his back behind his back, obviously he didn't want to be found out, he was a superfluous person who was in an awkward position and the queen mother thought it was an eyesore, so it was really hard for him to walk around casually.

"Eleven picked me up outside, and I went back while it was dark." Fu Qi stood up, and he was even thinner in a black robe. When he opened the window, there was wind blowing in, and Fu Qi coughed twice, " My son, I will—”

Ye Xingze and Fu Qi glanced at each other, and heard the outside say, "Ye Shizi, the empress dowager heard that you and your majesty have been chatting so far, and you are staying in the palace. You must be hungry. The slave will bring you some snacks."

It was someone sent by Queen Mother Pang. If he saw Fu Qi here, something would happen. Ye Xingze closed the window in a hurry, then pulled Fu Qi's wrist, strode to the bed, and let Fu Qi lie on the inside , covered with a quilt, unbuttoned his belt, took off his outer robe, loosened his hair crown, leaned on the soft pillow in his obscene clothes, and took a book in his hand as a cover.

Then he said, "Eunuch, come in."

Eunuch Jiang next to Empress Dowager Pang came in. He first saluted and then waved his whisk. The three or four little eunuchs behind him bent over and put the dishes on the table. Ye Xingze smiled and said, "Aunt Huang is sympathetic. Please tell my father-in-law that I will personally go to thank you tomorrow."

Fu Qi, who was hiding behind Ye Xingze, huddled under the quilt, cautiously motionless, and could only move his eyes. In front of him was Ye Xingze's loose black hair. Ye Xingze leaned on the soft pillow, and the clothes around his waist were piled aside. The other side is stretched very flat with the movements, and the moonlight outside the window seems to feel the strong and tough waist muscles under the thin fabric.

Fu Qi's sleeve moved, and was pressed down silently by Fu Qi.

"Where is this? The empress dowager said that when you were a nephew, when the late emperor was around, the empress dowager had a lot of contacts with Princess Suian. Now that her highness is outside the palace, it is inconvenient for the empress dowager to leave the palace. Naturally, she should treat the prince kindly." "" Eunuch Jiang said a lot of decent things before he got down to business, "Now that the late emperor's filial piety period has passed, the empress dowager intends to hold a family banquet. Just three days later, you just happen to be here. The empress dowager said she would not send anyone Went to An Guogong's mansion."

Ye Xingze complied politely, and only released the talisman after Eunuch Jiang left with his people satisfied.

Fu Qi was stuffed under the quilt, and his pale face turned rosy, "Thank you again for protecting me, my son."

"It's okay," Ye Xingze said, listening to the wind outside the window, "Young Master, be careful when you go back."

Ye Xingze looked at Fu Qi's thin body, as if he was about to go back with the wind, he quickly jumped out of the window and walked away along a small path.

Ye Xingze just closed the door, glanced at the jade pendant in his hand, yawned and went to sleep.

Fu Qi, who returned to Tingyutang, was not feeling well. He developed a low fever in the middle of the night, and woke up dizzy the next morning. Fu Shiyi was taking care of him. He didn't trust anyone, only his sister stayed behind. Therefore, Fu Shiyi is not only a guard, but also Fu Qi's personal attendant.

Fu Shiyi skillfully supported Fu Qi to sit up, and couldn't help but babbled, "It was windy last night, the young master was already weak, so he insisted on going out."

"My weakness is not due to the wind," Fu Qi waved his hand, and took the medicine bowl in Fu Shiyi's hand. The soup was dark red and exuded a faint fishy smell, but Fu Qi didn't even frown , brought it over and drank it directly, but closed his eyes after drinking, "Okay, you go down, I will stay by myself for a while."

After Fu Shiyi left, Fu Qi took out a small black worm from his sleeve, placed the Gu worm casually by his side, tapped the Gu worm's head, and made the Gu worm hug his With a little force on the finger, a drop of blood was stabbed out, and it was eaten clean.

"Have you taken a fancy to that person today?" Fu Qi was bitten, but there was no reaction, and the wound on his fingertips healed quickly. This Gu worm is a kind of Gu worm that is relatively weak in the Yuan Chi clan, and it only recognizes beauties. Lord, I only suck the blood of a beauty, but it is extremely lethal. If this beauty is not from the Yuanchi tribe, it only takes half an hour after the Gu worm enters the body, and the beauty is only skin and bones.

"But you can't touch him, do you know?" Fu Qi warned, seeing the Gu worm circling back and forth in fear, he retracted the Gu worm's sleeve again.

Three days passed in a flash, and the An Guo family was invited to enter the palace. In fact, this is not the first time that the An Guo family has received an invitation from the Queen Mother Pang. It's just that Princess Sui'an doesn't like her emperor's wife very much. In the past, due to the delicate atmosphere between His Majesty and the Pang family, Princess Sui'an declined all the invitations from Queen Mother Pang.

Who knew that Empress Dowager Pang told Ye Xingze directly that Ye Xingze, as a junior, had nothing important to do, so he couldn't politely refuse an invitation from an elder.

Speaking of a family banquet, it was in Shoukang Palace. Apart from their family and the Queen Mother, His Majesty and the Queen were present at the table, besides that, the girl sitting next to the Queen Mother.

An Guogong's mansion did not make a sound, and sat down on the seats after saluting. After the banquet, there were dancers performing dances in the center. It was the first time for Ye Xingze to see a serious ancient dance. Singing and dancing, I was still comparing the dance in front of me with the modern dance.

Didn't pay attention to the conversation on the side.

He also didn't notice the frequent gazes of the girl next to Queen Mother Pang.

Empress Dowager Pang, who was chatting, also just got to the point, "...Zizhan is only one year younger than the emperor, but there is no one around. It is really inappropriate. According to Ai's family, Zizhan is very suitable for Ai's niece."

"Zizhan is naughty and young, how can he climb up to the emperor's wife's niece." Princess Suian said.

"Zizhan is the nephew of the Ai family, and Lan'er is the niece of the Ai family. They are all in the same family. If there is anything they can't get up to, let them deal with it on their own. Let's not get involved in the affairs of the younger generation. "The Empress Dowager Pang didn't seem to understand what Princess Suian meant, and motioned for the girl beside her to sit next to Ye Xingze.

Pang Qilan blushed slightly, and looked at the prince of Anguo Duke's mansion who was sitting beside him leisurely peeling lychees. Pang Qilan's elegant and dignified appearance made Pang Qilan look away, her heart was pounding. Referring to my relatives, I am still unwilling to sacrifice, but now that I have met the Lord, there is nothing I don't want to do.

Seeing her aunt nodding to her from the side, Pang Qilan slowly got up and walked towards the eldest son.

The small plate of lychees in Ye Xingze's hand was quickly finished by him, and he was wiping his hands with some dissatisfaction. He passed a bowl of candied date water from his side, and with a girl's soft voice, "Your Highness, eating too many lychees will easily lead to guilt." If the fire is strong, it is better to drink a bowl of candied dates water to get rid of the fire."

Ye Xingze was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to find that the girl who was sitting next to the Queen Mother Pang was sitting next to him, her temples were swaying slightly, she was avoiding her gaze, she lowered her head and blushed, then raised her head and smiled again .

It can be said to be infinitely shy.

The corner of Ye Xingze's mouth twitched, he stood up and took a step back, picked up the wine glass, pointed at the emperor's place, "Zi Zhan hasn't had a drink with my cousin for a long time, this glass of wine, my cousin must show me face."

After all, drink it up.

The emperor smiled happily, and raised his wine glass in response to Ye Xingze. Ye Xingze took his seat again, but he didn't return to his original seat, but a seat away from Pang Qilan. Meal of melon and fruit.

As a woman, it was understandable that Pang Qilan rashly sat next to the man once, it was arranged by her elders, but if Ye Xingze changed places, Pang Qilan followed him, it would be too ugly.

Therefore, the feast was not crazy until the end, and Pang Qilan didn't say a word to Ye Xingze again, and the bowl of candied date water was left aside.

After the banquet, Ye Xingze left with his parents, ignoring Empress Dowager Pang's stiff expression.

"Zizhan, look at what the Queen Mother means, she wants to marry you," An Guogong said in a deep voice, "Sooner or later something will happen to the Pang family, we still have to find a way to avoid it."

"When I go back, I will directly choose a marriage for Zhan'er," Princess Sui'an is not very troubled. She was doted on by her father when she was young, by her brother when she grew up, and by her husband and son-in-law after marriage. Shun Shui also cultivated her proud temperament, "She is the niece of Queen Mother Pang, so she shouldn't be posted as a concubine."

"Mother, you don't need to be so troublesome. Just spread the news and say that I am Longyang, and it will be resolved." Ye Xingze took advantage of the situation and put forward his own thoughts, "It's not good for the woman to make a hasty marriage."

An Guogong and his wife squatted down, and a swaying tree by the road also stopped shaking.

Although this dynasty does not exclude masculinity, there are indeed few such people. No wonder An Guogong and his wife were shocked, "Zi Zhan, is what you said true?"

"It should be. My son still has a judgment on whether he likes men or women." Ye Xingze noticed something under the tree beside him, and looked up calmly, only seeing the darkness concealed between the trees.

"Forget it, since you brought it up, let's talk about it like this. It's not good to delay other good girls to play with you." Princess Suian was the first to react, and just sighed.

Ye Xingze laughed a few words, took two quick steps to hold Princess Suian's hand, and when passing by that tree, he accidentally dropped the sachet in his sleeve, and when he picked it up, he picked it up as well.

Roughly touched, like a key.

Ye Xingze thought to himself, it seems that Fu Qi has pretty good lightness kung fu.

The talisman on the tree had left when Ye Xingze looked up, and he realized that he had lost his key when he returned to Ting Yutang.

The maple and elm box left by my sister had five locks on it. Fu Qi searched for a year to find one, and now it is also lost.

Fu Qi suppressed the coughing in his mouth, took a pill, returned to the darkness again, searched along the path he walked, but found nothing, and finally found a person under the tree where he was almost found. A small auspicious lock, with a familiar smell of Fu Qi lingering on it.

That key is probably in Ye Xingze's place.

As for the auspicious lock that fell, whether it was dropped on purpose is still unknown.

Fu Qi was thinking about how to get it back from Ye Xingze's hand, when he heard a sound not far away, Fu Qi hurriedly hid himself in the tree again, and as soon as he landed on a relatively strong branch, he had a fight with the people above. face to face.

Ye Xingze was not surprised, but just silenced Fu Qi.

Passing under the tree were Nanny Peng and Pang Qilan who were beside the Empress Dowager Pang.

Pang Qilan had probably been reprimanded before, she kept her head down, looking not very interested, listening to Nanny Peng saying: "Miss Qilan, what the Empress Dowager means is that you stay in the palace first, Shizi Ye and Your Majesty has a good relationship and often stays in the palace, when the time comes to arrange for you to go, it will be done directly, it is best not to allow anyone to deny it."

Pang Qilan Nuonuo agreed. She was reprimanded by her aunt just now that she couldn't bear to lose face. Why should she be the crown prince of An Guogong's mansion? She thought about Ye Shizi's status and appearance, gritted her teeth, and agreed.

Fu Qi looked at Ye Shizi who was next to him, who was missed by others, and then at Pang Qilan who didn't know his weight under the tree, and shook his sleeves lightly.

When the two left, Ye Xingze and Fu Qi jumped off the tree. Fu Qi was about to say something when Ye Xingze stopped him, "It's hard to talk here, how about going to my bamboo jade building?"

Fu Qi nodded and asked, "It's so late, why are you still here?"

"It's nothing, I just asked the maid next to my mother to report to His Majesty, saying that I am a little drunk and want to rest in the Zhuyu Tower, and His Majesty will agree." Ye Xingze explained, and when the two arrived at the Zhuyu Tower, Eunuch Zhou will send someone Come to clean the Zhuyu Building, and bring His Majesty's will, saying that Ye Shizi will be allowed to stay in the palace in the future, and the Zhuyu Building will be set as Ye Shizi's palace residence.

Fu Qi hid in the dark of the room, and did not come out until Ye Xingze finished dismissing Eunuch Zhou.

"Why are you there?" Fu Qi asked after the effect of the pills he swallowed had expired, and he could no longer suppress his coughing. He coughed twice.

"I picked up a key from under the tree. It is of good workmanship. I guess it was not deliberately thrown away. I was thinking about waiting for the owner, but I was afraid that the person who lost him would be a palace official. Seeing me, I dare not come over, so I went to the house. Hiding in a tree," Ye Xingze explained casually, and then asked Fu Qi, "What about you? I didn't know you could do light work."

"Listening to Yuge is very boring, and I have a special status. It's not easy to walk around in the palace, so I can only go out at night to relax," Fu Qi said lightly, with a bit of loneliness in his eyes, "Who knows that I lost it?" When I came back to look for the key, I met the Empress Dowager's people again."

Both of them smiled with a look of understanding, and the answers they gave were all false. As for whether the other party believes it or not, it is not their own business.

"This is your key. What is it used for?" Ye Xingze returned the key to Fu Qi and asked curiously.

"The thoughts left by my sister are useless." Fu Qi took the key and put it on his waist. When he saw the auspicious lock, he hesitated to take it out.

Looking at Ye Xingze's appearance, he didn't seem to know that he had lost something.

In the end, Fu Qi still didn't hand it over, and he didn't know what thoughts were wandering in his mind.

"That must be put away. If someone picks it up, it may not be as kind as me." Ye Xingze kindly reminded that this thing is the key. If the talisman is lost again, the person who picked it up will definitely not return it.

"I know, there is one more thing I should apologize to the prince." Fu Qi covered his heart and took a few breaths, completely lacking the vitality that a 15-year-old child should have. "Today I heard your conversation, although it was not my intention, But I've heard it too, but don't worry, I won't say it."

"Oh, it's okay, those words will be spread anyway," Ye Xingze waved his hand, expressing his indifference, "The Queen Mother insists on telling me about marriage, and I can't refuse."

"So those are all excuses?" Fu Qi asked casually, "It's just that you actually like men."

"Not really, if it's an excuse, then if I use it to reject the queen mother, wouldn't it mean that I will cut off my future marriage?" Ye Xingze sat next to Fu Qi, poured a bowl of hot tea for Fu Qi, and looked up at Fu Qi to take the tea bowl He was stunned for a while, and then looked at him with shock in his eyes after a while, Ye Xingze thought for a while and said, "You're not worried that I like you, are you?"

"Ahem——" Fu Qi, who was drinking tea from a bowl, lost his demeanor rarely, was choked by the tea, his face turned red when he coughed, and he didn't know if he was punctured or something thought, "I—I didn't think so!"

Ye Xingze burst out laughing. It was the first time he had seen Fu Qi lose his composure in the few times he met with Fu Qi. However, Ye Xingze also encountered such things as being misunderstood when he announced his sexual orientation before. If you have a good friend, it is inevitable that some people will guess Ye Xingze's motives, such as whether he likes him or not.

In order to get along with each other later, Ye Xingze would usually explain this to his friends after announcing it, "Just kidding, you don't have to worry, I probably don't like you like this, I just care about my friends when I pour you tea."

"..." Fu Qi didn't know what mood he was in.

On the second day, Ye Xingze learned from the emperor that the Empress Dowager Pang's niece contracted some strange disease last night, and dense red spots appeared on her face. The emperor patted Ye Xingze on the shoulder, "Although this It’s hard to say, but I still want to say, in this way, it’s not easy for the queen mother to force that girl to you.”

However, Ye Xingze frowned. It happened to be the next day, so he contracted some strange disease?so timely?

While thinking about it, he saw the jade pendant on his waist, the piece given to him by Fu Qi, an idea suddenly appeared in his mind, but before it took shape, three days later, there was news that the girl's face was The red dots all faded away, but Pang Qilan suffered mentally and emaciated after this experience, so she could only be kept in a deep boudoir, so she couldn't go out.

Ye Xingze was stunned when he heard the news, but his parents breathed a sigh of relief, and they could slowly spread the news about Ye Xingze. Originally, Princess Sui'an was worried that Ye Xingze's love of Longyang would lead to Ye Xingze's lonely life , but who knows that the development of things ran to a strange place.

Princess Suian never knew that there are so many sons and elder brothers who love Longyang in Beijing, and this was revealed in the name of admiring Ye Shizi.

Ye Xingze was a little bit dumbfounded, he didn't even know whether these sons who came to beg for marriage were because of him, or because they were like Long Yang in the original plot.

Fu Qi finished today's Gu feeding, picked up the soup bowl on one side and drank it down, his pale face returned to a little rosy, news came from the clan, saying that he found it in a dark compartment in his sister's room A key, Fu Shiyi is going to get the key, probably coming back today.

Thinking of Pang Qilan who had been completely ruined by him for two or three days, Fu Qi didn't feel anything, and he didn't want to hurt anyone, but he just felt that someone like Pang Qilan was not good enough for Ye Xingze. .

Fu Qi looked at the mirror on one side again, his pale face and sickly appearance could be clearly reflected in it, somehow he remembered the scene when he first met Ye Xingze.

Ye Xingze said he didn't like him, so what would he like?

Tsk, what does this have to do with him.

Fu Shiyi, who happened to come back, saw his master frowning as if he was thinking about something. In the past year, his master has changed a lot, and he always looks deep in thought. He is no longer the one who needs to be covered by him to endure. crying baby.

It's rare to show such an expression.

"Are you back?" Fu Qi noticed Fu Shiyi's return, and the expression on his face was thrown aside as he thought in his heart, "Did you get the key?"

"Here," Fu Xi took out a wooden box from his arms, handed it to Fu Qi, talked about what happened in the clan, and finally mentioned Ye Xingze, because Fu Qi asked him to investigate this person, so Fu Xi He is still very sensitive to the news about this person, "...Ye Shizi has recently started seeing each other for marriage, but it is strange that Princess Suian only sees men."

"Have you seen each other again?" The movements in Fu Qi's hands paused.

"Yes, I heard that Princess Sui'an already has a few candidates she likes." Fu Shiyi lowered his head, not seeing Fu Qi's expression, "It seems that there is the second son of Xiangping Houfu, and Yongqing The third son of the Hou family, yes, there is also the son of the Shangshu family of the household department."

"Princess Suian's favorite?" Fu Qi's tone couldn't detect any emotion, only the casual movement of tapping the key on the table. His heart seemed not at peace, "Does Ye Shizi have a favorite?"

"I haven't heard of it, but if Ye Shizi has a favorite candidate, Princess Suian will not be too busy to meet him." Fu Shiyi replied, although he didn't know why Fu Qi paid so much attention to Ye Shizi, but the master wanted to know, He just went to check.

Recently, Ye Xingze was busy helping the emperor catch Pang's pigtails, and he never stayed in the palace until half a month later, when it was the Empress's birthday, Ye Xingze stayed in the palace directly after attending the banquet.

Fu Qi received the news and wanted to go to the Zhuyu Tower to take a look, but after thinking about it, he had nothing to say, and was wandering unconsciously in front of the Zhuyu Tower.

It was late at night, and Fu Qi's kung fu focused on lightness and concealment, so when the Queen Mother Pang's people came, they didn't find him.

As usual, it was Eunuch Jiang who was next to Empress Dowager Pang, followed by several eunuchs, but Fu Qi noticed with sharp eyes that one of the eunuchs was obviously different from the others.

Fu Qi's eyes darkened when he thought of Pang Qilan from before. The Empress Dowager Pang never stopped thinking of arranging a marriage for Ye Xingze. After hearing that Ye Xingze loved Longyang, she actually wanted to stuff a man in.

The author has something to say:

Day six, the sixth day!
