Chapter 619: Ancient Plane, Dandy in Men's Disguise 40
“Since you are Brother Lu’s friend, then there is no problem.
But Brother Lu still needs to take care of his health and not get hurt from overwork."
Yan Beiji chuckled, then gently patted Miaomiao's shoulder, lowering his eyes to hide the dark light in his eyes.
What about Li Yifeng and Zhao Xuan? Ever since he confirmed his liking for the young master a few days ago, he had subconsciously excluded those people from the two of them.
But before, his focus was on the eight concubines and the two maids around the young master, but now, he has to pay more attention to two people of the same gender as him.
"Okay, brother."
Miaomiao bowed, feeling that the hand that had just pressed on her shoulder was too hot.
Fortunately, Yan Beiji left as soon as he said he would, without making any further fuss.
When Miaomiao thought that she could escape tomorrow, even her breathing felt inexplicably smoother.
So as soon as Yan Beiji left the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, she couldn't wait to get on her own carriage and head straight to the Princess's Mansion.
Nothing else, just a peaceful night and she would have no regrets.
Unfortunately, just as the carriage stopped steadily at the Princess's Mansion and the passengers had not yet dismounted to explain their purpose, the housekeeper of the Princess's Mansion hurried out to greet them.
"My Lord, are you here to look for my young master?
I'm so sorry, the young master has a high fever and the princess is worried that he might have offended someone, so she sent him to the temple to recuperate. His return date is uncertain..."
After thanking the housekeeper, Miaomiao went to Lord Zhao's house again, but unfortunately, Zhao Xuan seemed to be in a worse situation.
He was sent directly to the academy in Yu'an City to study. If he didn't make progress in his studies, he would not be allowed to come back...
Miaomiao just felt that her trip was really ridiculous. She didn't get any news at all even though they were in Yandu.
For some reason, Miaomiao thought of Yan Beiji, but Yan Beiji was the son of destiny, and she liked women, not men, so she shouldn't go to such an extent.
With a long sigh, Miaomiao decided to go back and rest.
In the afternoon, sunlight shines through the carved window lattices of the imperial study, casting an interlaced pattern of light and shadow on the golden brick floor.
Inside, several important officials, dressed in court robes, were engaged in a heated discussion surrounding the issues of frontier farming and water conservancy improvements. Yan Beiji, seated in a high position, would occasionally offer his opinions, his words revealing the wisdom and decisiveness of a superior.
During the break, Xiao Qianzi crouched forward, bowed slightly, and reported to his master in a very low voice all the news about the Marquis of Zhenbei that had come from outside the palace.
Yan Beiji lowered his eyes upon hearing this and revealed an ambiguous smile.
He calmly turned slightly to the side, and his slender fingers reached into the wide sleeves and gently stroked a piece of white cloth.
It was a piece of cloth he had secretly cut from the young master's bra. Just by touching it, he seemed to be able to smell her unique fragrance on it.
"Well done. Go back now and make sure the carriage is made more comfortable."
Yan Beiji said in an ambiguous tone.
It was not until Xiao Qianzi left after receiving the order that Yan Beiji returned to the imperial study and continued his discussion with the ministers, as if the previous episode had never happened at all.
But his fingertips would always rub through his sleeves from time to time...
Miaomiao naturally didn't know about this episode in the Imperial Study. After returning to the Marquis' Mansion, she thought that since her two cowardly brothers were not around, she might as well find a few singing and dancing girls to accompany her...
When night fell, Yan Beiji finally handed over all his recent official duties and stepped into the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.
The lights in the courtyard were much brighter than usual, and the dinner that should have been just for the two of them was much more lively today.
As soon as Yan Beiji entered the courtyard, he saw a table placed in the courtyard, already laid out with delicacies, and not far from the table, a lascivious song was already being sung...
At this moment, Yan Beiji still had a smile on his face as usual, but when his eyes fell on Lu Miao, who was surrounded by several coolly dressed dancers, the smile in his eyes completely turned cold.
He knew she was a girl, but at this moment his heart still tightened suddenly, and uncontrollable jealousy surged in his heart.
It turned out that it had nothing to do with gender. He just didn't like the way she looked at other people. He was afraid that she would fall in love with someone else. Just like she said, she liked women...
The sweeter her smile, the more sinister Yan Beiji's eyes became.
That was his treasure, and it should be held in his hands alone, without anyone else being allowed to touch it...
It was not until his fingers touched the white cloth hidden in the sleeves that the jealousy that almost made him lose his mind subsided a little.
However, the desire to hide her and only let himself see her became more and more obvious.
Yan Beiji lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment before emerging from the darkness of the courtyard.
While Miaomiao was still surrounded by the singers, he stretched out his long arms and pulled her directly into his arms.
"Brother Lu, are you going to treat me to a song and dance performance?"
Yan Beiji lowered his head slightly, looked down at Miaomiao in his arms, his voice low and gentle.
Only the slightly rolling Adam's apple and the hoarse voice revealed his deep desire for the person in his arms.
Miaomiao, who was suddenly picked up and pulled into someone's arms, met Yan Beiji's deep and fiery gaze before she could react, and swallowed the scolding that was about to come out of her mouth.
The singing girls who had just surrounded Miaomiao and smiled sweetly all knelt on the ground the moment they saw Yan Beiji.
This person is the regent. Once, a minister invited the regent to a banquet and asked them to dance.
As a result, at the banquet, the Regent chopped off the hand of another minister's grandson, Sun Yaozu, with a sword. This completely discouraged the dancers who had originally had some thoughts.
Therefore, when the dancers knew that the Marquis of Zhenbei was hosting a banquet for the Queen Regent, they knelt on the ground and trembled slightly, not daring to breathe.
This is the living devil...
Yan Beiji, holding Miaomiao in his arms, glanced coldly at those "rivals in love", his tone gentle but sharp.
"The rebellion has not yet been fully investigated, so how can you be sure, Brother Lu, that these people are not in league with the rebellion?
It’s better not to let anyone get close to you.”
As he spoke, he leaned forward slightly, his lips almost touching the top of Miaomiao's head, his warm breath spraying on Miaomiao's hair. Miaomiao felt her scalp tingling and her whole body uncomfortable.
Leaning in Yan Beiji's arms, she looked like a frightened quail.
"Are you right? My little lord..."
