My Love Comes to See the Grass on my Grave - Chapter 67
The old emperor was stunned for a while, silently took out the roast leg of lamb from behind, and said, “I just took a bite. Are you so angry? Talking nonsense…”
Murong Yan: “…Father, I’m not talking nonsense.”
The old emperor still didn’t believe it, “I just don’t want to eat it in the future, you…”
“Father, my son is not joking.” Murong Yan took Gu Lang’s hand and put his palms together, “He is my son’s sweetheart, and he will stay with him for the rest of his life.”
Gu Lang looked at him and clenched his clasped palms.
The old emperor held the roast leg of lamb and asked in a daze: “Are you serious?”
Murong Yan: “Really.”
The leg of lamb fell to the ground with a “crack”, and then, there was a sound of “crackling” smashing things in the imperial study, mixed with the old emperor’s panting and angry scolding, “Nizi! You are going to make me mad! Laozi Kill you……”
Murong Yan dragged Gu Lang and ran out of the imperial study, his face was dirty and splashed with a few drops of ink.
Gu Lang raised his sleeves to wipe him, and said worriedly, “Your father seems to be very angry…”
“It’s fine,” Murong Yan said, “it’ll be fine when he figures it out.”
Gu Lang: “But…”
“I just can’t have dinner together,” Murong Yan looked at the dim sky and said, “Let’s go, Xiang Gong will take you out to eat, what do you want to eat?”
Gu Lang: “…”
They went to the most lively restaurant in Beijing, found the place where they used to sit before, and warmed up a pot of Erhong.
Gu Lang was a little gloomy, as if he couldn’t drink the old wine.
Murong Yan looked at him, and suddenly took out five taels of silver from his arms and put it into his hands.
Gu Lang looked blank, “What?”
Murong Yan said, “Didn’t you say that I lent you five taels of silver and didn’t pay it back?”
Gu Lang then remembered what he said before, “I don’t really want you to pay back the money, it’s just…”
“Just want me to come back, don’t you?” Murong Yan rubbed his fingers against his face, and said warmly, “Since I’m back, I won’t leave, don’t worry.”
The warmth on the side of his face seemed to climb down his neck and land on his heart. Gu Lang’s long eyelashes trembled slightly, and a smile formed on his lips, and he said softly, “Okay.”
Murong Yan felt an itch in his heart, and was about to lean over, when he heard a familiar voice from downstairs, saying, “One pot is fine.”
He looked down and saw Qu Fengyun and the little imperial doctor surnamed Ruan sitting downstairs, seemingly arguing about something.
“I want two pots!” Ruan Nian was very angry and said fiercely to Qu Fengyun, “What are you doing with me?! I didn’t invite you to drink!”
He had brought the pot of chicken soup back to the kitchen today, laying on the table and watching it for a long time, he was no longer angry, but he saw Xiaoyue came in with a post, saying that it was sent by someone from the Xiangfu.
He opened it and saw that it was Xu Jinger who asked him and Qu Fengyun to go to Fanhu tomorrow.
The fire in Ruan Nian’s heart rose again, and only the words “Xu Jing’er asked Qu Fengyun to go to the lake” remained in his mind.
Pan what lake? ! Don’t be afraid to fall into the lake!
He was so panicked that he wanted to eat dumplings on the street. But when I got to the dumpling stall, I remembered that Zeng and Qu Fengyun were drinking dumpling soup here, and I didn’t want to eat it.
Wandering around in the street, he saw people coming and going in the restaurant.
He just found a table and sat down, when he looked up, he saw Qu Fengyun also sitting down.
Ruan Nian: “…”
Qu Fengyun’s face was as usual, and he asked, “Do you know how to drink?”
Ruan Nian almost drove him out, “What’s your business?! What are you doing here?!”
Qu Fengyun: “Drink.”
“You…” Ruan Nian had nothing to say, turned his head and shouted, “Little Er, I want two jugs of wine!”
“One pot is fine,” Qu Fengyun said, “You can’t drink that much.”
Ruan Nian said: “I want two pots! It doesn’t cost you any money, you control me!”
The two were arguing, and a chopstick suddenly flew over and nailed it straight to the table.
Ruan Nian shuddered, Qu Fengyun looked up suddenly, and saw the Crown Prince and Gu Lang looking at them upstairs.
The prince smiled warmly, “You two come to drink too?”
Qu Fengyun: “…”
Qu Fengyun suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
Ruan Nian sat blankly at the table, flattered as he watched the prince pour wine for him.
“Doctor Ruan…” As soon as the prince opened his mouth, Qu Fengyun said immediately, “He doesn’t know how to drink.”
The prince said with a look of regret: “It’s a pity, you said that your alcohol intake is not even enough for Doctor Ruan.”
Ruan Nian couldn’t help asking: “Is he good at drinking?”
The prince nodded and said, “I think that when he went to suppress the bandits, the bandit leader was a woman, but he was addicted to alcohol. He insisted on comparing his alcohol intake with him. As a result, he lost the whole stockade and even shouted that he wanted to marry him.”
Qu Fengyun: “…”
Ruan Nian suddenly picked up the wine and drank it, his throat was like a fire, and his eyes were red due to choking, “cough…”
Qu Fengyun hurriedly patted him on the back.
“Go away!” Ruan Nian pushed him away and said aggrieved, “Go find that female bandit and go to the lake with Miss Xu!”
The prince asked curiously, “Who is this Miss Xu?”
“Miss Xu is the daughter of the Prime Minister,” Ruan Nian’s face flushed with alcohol, “he still smiled at her, he never smiled at me like that before…”
The prince stretched his voice, “Oh…”
Gu Lang ate food silently by the side.
Qu Fengyun pulled Ruan Nian up and said, “Let’s go first.”
“I’m not leaving!” Ruan Nian hugged the pillar, “I don’t want you to care!”
Qu Fengyun lifted the man up.
“Ah…you let me down…”
Murong Yan watched them go downstairs, touched his chin and said, “It seems to be good to carry, next time…”
Gu Lang picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it in his mouth, “Eat.”
When the ink was overwhelming, Gu Lang was still drunk. Murong Yan carried him back to the East Palace, and while he was walking, Gu Lang suddenly said that he wanted to ride a horse.
Murong Yan coaxed, “How will you be tomorrow?”
“No,” Gu Lang dazedly rubbed the back of his neck, “I want to ride a horse…”
“Okay…” Murong Yan could only carry him to the stables and lead Ah Ci out.
Gu Lang climbed onto the horse’s back, staggering a bit. Murong Yan was afraid that he would fall off, so he also got on the horse and sat behind him.
A Ci suddenly started running with a neigh, jumping all the way, Murong Yan couldn’t hold back.
“Slow down! Someone is still drunk here…”
They ran and ran to the gate of the palace city, Murong Yan took a lot of effort to make it turn around and run towards the East Palace.
Gu Lang nestled in his arms and smiled drunkenly.
The Minister of Rites has been a little busy recently, and it was late when he left the palace.
He walked to the gate of Miyagi and saw that the prince was holding a person in his arms, running wildly on horseback.
He suddenly remembered that there were rumors before that the prince had the love of Longyang…
Lin Shangshu immediately threw his sleeves and said angrily: “What kind of style! What kind of style…”
So, in the early morning of the second day, the Minister of Rites participated in a book of the prince, saying that the prince and his servants rode horses in the palace last night, and they were frolicsome and disrespectful…
After listening to the prince, he knelt down and said, “Father, my son has something to say.”
The old emperor thought he was going to defend himself, nodded and said, “You say it.”
The prince said, “Lin Shangshu’s statement is not true.”
Lin Shangshu glared and said, “Dare to ask Your Highness, where is the truth?”
Prince: “The one who rode with this prince last night was not a servant, but the prince’s concubine.”
Lin Shangshu: “…”
Everyone: “…”
