They all say I'm a tyrant

Chapter 13

Half an hour later, Changle Palace.

"He asked you to bring this box as a thank you gift?" With the brocade box in front of him, Lin Ce looked at Chi Che inexplicably, "What else did he say?"

Chi Che shook his head: "Your Majesty, General You only said that he drank too much and wanted to go back home to rest. His subordinates saw that he looked really tired, so they didn't dare to make things difficult."

Lin Jue groaned, and tapped the table a few times with his knuckles: "You just said, who did he drink with today?"

"Your Majesty, Lin Jue, the son of Lin Yan, the Minister of Zhongshu."

Lin Ce narrowed his eyes: "Lin Yan's son? I remember his son's name is Lin Xing, doesn't he work in the household department?"

"Your Majesty, Lin Xing is Lin Yan's concubine son, and Lin Jue is his eldest son. It's just that this man is deviant and resolutely refuses to take an official career. He is not fond of Lin Yan every day. , so it is rarely mentioned." Gao Yong, who was waiting at the side, explained Lin Ce's doubts in time.

"Lin Jue...I always feel like I've heard this name somewhere before." Lin Ce thought for a while, then waved his hand at Chi Che, "I know, you step back."

Gao Yong sent Chi Che out of the hall, and thoughtfully closed the door of the main hall, turned around and saw Lin Cewu staring at the brocade box in a daze, and asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, do you want to open this brocade box to have a look? "

Lin Ce glanced at him: "What do you mean he suddenly sent me a letter?"

Gao Yong guessed Lin Ce's mood, and said cautiously: "Perhaps General You suddenly wrote something today, and he thought it was good and shared it with His Majesty."

"Speaking of which, it's true that I haven't seen what he wrote for many years." Lin Ce lowered his eyes, "It seems that since he met me, he has been far away from the leisure and elegance of the past. After that, they even went to the dangerous border to walk through life and death."

Lin Ce unconsciously rubbed the brocade box in his hand, and the elegant and handsome young You Yan appeared in his mind. He was born in a famous family, with outstanding talents and knowledge, and was well-known in the capital. At a young age, he made friends with countless literati in the city.But he happened to get to know him, the king of Han who is penniless except for the identity of a prince, and after that, his life took a completely different track.

Lin Ce lowered his head to look at the brocade box, and shook his head gently: "When I met him back then, I had nothing, my father didn't care, my courtiers didn't care, and even the servants who were slightly favored dared to bully me to the end. Now, the empress mother was silent in the harem, as if she didn't have this son. Later, I had Ziqing, and at that time I swore that when I got this world, I would hold him in front of him whatever he wanted." Lin Ce raised the corners of his lips , showing a self-deprecating smile, "But now that I sit in this position, I suddenly understand that before meeting me, he already had everything, but I can't even add to the icing on the cake, and what I bring to him is endless. trouble."

"Your Majesty..." Sensing Lin Ce's emotions, Gao Yong hesitated for a moment, and called softly.

Lin Ce reached out to open the brocade box: "Recently, I have been thinking that one day he realizes what he has lost because of being with me, and he will definitely regret it." He raised his head and glanced at the shelf next to him. , there was also a brocade box on it, and the things contained in it were coveted by countless people, and they were shelved after returning to Lin Ce's hands, "Maybe that day has come."

Gao Yong wanted to comfort him, but in the final analysis, it was a matter between him and You Yan. As an outsider, even if he was a personal servant, he couldn't help much, so he could only whisper: "Although this servant doesn't know much about these things, It can still be seen that General You still cares about His Majesty very much. Once when he came to Changle Palace, His Majesty just happened to have a government official to deal with, so he left a servant to wait on him, but the servant saw with his own eyes that General You did nothing for an entire hour. , staring at His Majesty intently, unwilling to look away."

Lin Ce paused while holding the brocade box, finally just shook his head with a wry smile, opened the brocade box and took out the scroll inside, Gao Yong immediately stepped forward to help Lin Ce open the scroll, revealing the words on it.Lin Ce frowned after just one glance: "This is not his handwriting."

Gao Yong glanced at the lower left corner: "Your Majesty, there is a seal here... Yun, layman in Yunzhong? Could it be that General You thought the writing was good, so he bought it for His Majesty?"

Lin Ce glanced at the direction of the finger, and chuckled: "This kind of word will not be able to catch his eyes for decades."

"Then..." Gao Yong hesitated, and turned his eyes, "Your Majesty, if you are free tomorrow, send someone to invite General You, and ask him in person what he means?"

Seeing Lin Ce looking up at him, Gao Yong added: "You and General You haven't seen each other for a few days, maybe he made a special trip to the palace today because he wanted to see you."

Lin Ce closed the scroll and threw it into Gao Yong's arms: "As long as you talk too much, send someone to find out what's going on with this layman in Yunzhong."

Gao Yong rolled up the scroll and put it back into the box: "Then Your Majesty, this word..."

"Put it away first." Lin Ce glanced at it, "Although the word is really not very good, but who knows what it means, if he loses it and suddenly asks, I can't explain it."

Gao Yong held the box in his arms: "Yes."

"Go down and leave me alone."

Gao Yong poured a cup of tea for Lin Ce, and then carefully retreated holding the box.The heavy hall door was gently closed, and the empty hall fell into a long silence.

Compared with the quiet Changle Palace, Youfu is much more lively.

You Yan had a good capacity for alcohol when he was a teenager, but since he came back from Northwest with an injury all over his body, Lin Ce has become extremely nervous about his body, and You Yan is also quite self-conscious. Get drunk.When he was in the study, he was still sober, but he staggered all the way through the carriage, and when he arrived at the Youfu, he got drunk and unconsciously got on his head.

Ruiyun followed behind his young master, watching him turn around in the garden for half a circle, and finally stopped by the lotus pond, staring straight at the water in the pond, Ruiyun tugged at his sleeve: "Young master , you drank so much wine, I asked them to make sober tea, you go back and drink some?"

You Yan shook his head, sat down by the pool without saying a word, then began to take off his shoes and socks, and then jumped into the lotus pond without waiting for Ruiyun to react. After tossing in the deep pool for a long time, he dragged You Yan ashore, panting by the side of the pool: "My lord, what exactly do you want to do?"

You Yan lay on his back on the stone slab by the shore, his whole body was completely wet, he moved his head and looked towards the direction of the setting sun in the west, Rui Yun tried to persuade him to get up and go back to his room several times, but he just waved Waving his hands, he didn't suddenly turn over and sit up until he saw the setting sun disappear and the sky was completely dark: "Let them prepare hot water, and I'll take a bath."

Ruiyun was already drowsy from waiting, and You Yan's sudden voice surprised him, he looked at You Yan with some doubts: "My lord, are you awake now?"

You Yan glanced at him, with a slight smile on his lips, he helped him by the shoulders and got up: "Let's go, go back."

Probably because he had a lot of experience during the day, he took a hasty shower and didn't even have dinner, so You Yan collapsed on the bed and fell asleep unconsciously.

I don't know how long I slept for this sleep, You Yan finally woke up from his sleep because of his empty stomach, the room was dark, before calling Ruiyun You Yan found that there was someone lying beside him, almost subconsciously, He touched the man's face: "It's midnight, Your Majesty is not sleeping on the dragon bed, why did you come to my low couch?"

You Yan didn't get any response, and he wasn't in a hurry. After a long stalemate like this, Lin Ce finally turned sideways and hugged him into his arms: "The general made a special trip to enter the palace today but he didn't even enter the gate of Changle Palace. Come to appease me."

"Oh? Is that so?" You Yan turned sideways, his eyes were extraordinarily bright in the night, "Then the appeasement is over now, Your Majesty, go back."

Lin Ce sighed lowly, hugged the person in his arms tighter, and buried his face on his shoulder: "Okay, I was wrong, I wanted to see you. When your things are brought into the palace in the evening, I will Wanting to see you, I endured it all night, and finally I couldn't bear it anymore."

You Yan moved in Lin Ce's arms, wanting to raise his head to look at Lin Ce's face, but was held tightly by Lin Ce, such Lin Ce made him feel weak at the bottom of his heart for no reason, stretched out his arms, and wrapped them around Lin Ce's waist: "After this time, you have to get up before dawn tomorrow in order to catch up with the morning court. Are you going to sleep this night?"

Lin Ce slowly let go of his hand and looked down at him: "Go to sleep, I will watch over you."

"I have nothing to do, and I have a whole day to rest, but you," You Yan raised his hand and touched Lin Ce's face, "When I see Director Gao, I want to ask, have you stayed away all night for the past few days? Sleep to deal with government affairs."

"Gao Yong was punished by me," Lin Ce kissed You Yan's ear, "I blocked you from the door, you shouldn't be punished? So why don't you go into the palace to watch me in person, how about it?"

You Yan laughed: "Your Majesty is currently choosing a concubine with great fanfare. I don't know how many people in the court want to send someone to the dragon bed. It's too blatant for me to live in Changle Palace at this time. Let's settle this matter." ?”

Lin Ce tightened his hands on You Yan's shoulders, and said in a shy voice, "I can explain the matter of choosing a concubine."

You Yan shook his head: "There is no need to explain between you and me."

Lin Ce bit his lower lip and looked at him for a while, finally just smiled: "That's good."

You Yan lay flat on his back, held Lin Ce's arm under his neck, and pressed his face against his chest: "It's not a few hours before dawn, I'll sleep with you for a while."

Lin Ce slowly closed his eyes, his body was very tired, but he didn't feel sleepy at all, so he could only hug the person in his arms tightly: "Ziqing."

"Huh?" You Yan felt sleepy again, half asleep and half awake, he replied vaguely, "What."

Lin Ce lowered his head and looked at him. He had a lot of things he wanted to ask You Yan, but he was afraid that some things would not be taken back once he said them, so he could only move over and press a kiss on his lips: "I love you."
