Chapter 109 – Lord Su looks at me

In the moment when the eyes of both sides touched, Jing Hongchou subconsciously launched the art of Nightmare Charm to fight against that which had no words, a wave of grief and rage roaring inside his chest-

The growl finally turned into a mouthful of black blood, spraying on the lapel and the ground in front of him.

–

In the east city, Huo specially vacated an exquisite and spacious mansion for the newly arrived Imperial Secretary Su to live in. This mansion is next to the garrison fort, making it convenient for the five hundred elite soldiers brought in by the Brocade Guards to protect it at all times.

Today is the 15th of August, the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the officials of the various government offices are on leave. Although the soldiers in the barracks can’t go home to visit their families, they can also eat meat in big pots and have a banquet as a holiday reward.

Huo and Yan Chengxue had long ago organized a large table of good wine and good food for Su Yan, and it was prepared in his backyard, so that he could eat and drink while enjoying the moon.

Since Su Yan had accepted the two men’s defection, this face still had to be given, so he accepted without any pretense, and also warmly invited them to participate in the departmental gathering.

Yan Chengxue had a heart attack when she saw the face of Imperial Secretary Su, and didn’t want to dine with him at the same table, so she found an excuse to shrug it off and left with Huo.

Su Yan also did not stay, smilingly pulled the boy to sit at the same table with the brocade guards.

He looked at the sky and muttered, “Why isn’t Chase back yet?”

Chu Yuan said, “Jing Hong brother’s martial arts is strong, it will not be in danger, I think the situation is complicated, it takes time to investigate, we will wait.”

Gao Shuo said, “This Qing Shui camp is quite prosperous, and coincides with the festivals, so it is very lively, and there are quite a number of hooks and bars, perhaps he was blinded by the chaos of flowers, and went to look for his own amusement.”

Su Yan lost his smile, “Where could he be, he couldn’t do such a thing.”

Gao Shuo said, “I can’t say for sure, but it’s not unseemly for a man to find a bawd under a prolonged absence.”

Su Yan glanced at Gao Shuo and raised an eyebrow, “According to this, you guys didn’t do this less often? Where is your superior officer?”

Gao Shuo knew that he was asking about Shen Qi. He wanted to give Jing Hong a catch up eye candy, but he didn’t expect to bring Shangguan into it, so he couldn’t help but feel some bitterness in his mouth, and awkwardly said, “He’s a clean …… and good …… man.”

His voice was getting smaller and smaller. About recalled that when the two first met, he was also present, and witnessed Shen Qi, because of the instigation of his subordinates, on the spur of the moment, almost tied Su Yan, dressed as a scholar, back to “drink sobering soup” – how to look at it is also not like a clean and honest person can do.

Su Yan snorted, “Come on, don’t stick it in his face.”

He himself to participate in the examination before, also in the fireworks place hovering a few months, and the famous prostitute Ruan Hong banana quite a good match. At that time, if it is not in the way of the age is still small, for fear of too early leakage body, yang loss lead to the future growth is not high, maybe really and Ruan Hong banana rolled bed sheets.

–Who would have guessed that he wouldn’t make it to eighteen and fall into the hands of a secret agent who took advantage of the situation.

His first night …… (in this life) was not only without the sage advice of a mature and beautiful sister, but he was also fucking screwed by a guy.

Fucking Shen Qi.

Eat it all and then don’t even come to give him a ride, son of a bitch.

Su Yan clenched her silver teeth darkly while saying in a cloudy manner, “They are all men, who doesn’t know yet.”

Brocade guards sparsely laughed, squeezing each other’s eyebrows, just like being said in the heart. There are a few even whispered about each other, after the meal to go out to enjoy the moon to disperse – as to how to disperse, naturally unspoken.

Chu Yuan has a family in the capital, the temperament is also calm, did not follow the blind to join in the fun, but instead glared at them, warned: “Less in front of Lord Su nonsense, the task is in the body, well when your errand, do not have to go out to fool around!”

One of the brocade guards laughed: ”We are not like Commander Chu, there is no one at home who knows the cold and knows the pain, and we are not allowed to relax outside? Can take turns to go, not much time. Don’t worry, can’t delay the errand.”

He turned his head and asked Su Yan, “Does Lord Su want to go with him? We can also escort you at any time, killing two birds with one stone.”

Su Yan lazily chewed on the fried peanuts as an appetizer, “You guys can go if you want, I’ll go back to the house and sleep. I’m exhausted from running all the way, who is like you guys who practice martial arts and have so much energy.”

“Lord Su is a phoenix looking at a pheasant and can’t look at it, right?”

There was another round of good-natured banter as the crowd toasted him.

Su Yan was facetious enough to do it all.

Although the degree of the wine from the western region is not too high, sweet and sour and refreshing, but the afterburner is quite strong, after a round of drinking, there are also four or five points of drunkenness. He pointed to the table full of dishes and greeted the crowd: ”Move your chopsticks, eat while it’s hot. Anyway, the table is full with twelve people, even if Ah Zhui comes back, he won’t have enough seats. I’ll give him a small meal later.”

Only after Su Yan gave the word, the brocade guards were able to move their chopsticks, and one by one, they ate their food and winded up.

Only Su Xiao Bei and Su Xiao Jing still cared about the little boy’s duty, grabbing in front of their chopsticks to clip quite a few dishes, piling them in Su Yan’s bowl, quietly saying, “Adults eat quickly, they are all starving ghosts, one step slower and even the plate is divided up.”

Su Yan smiled and rubbed their heads, “You two eat too, don’t just grow up and not grow meat.”

He ate some meat and vegetable soup, and as the wine came up and made him a bit light-headed, he got up and said, “I’ll go wash my face, and you guys continue.”

Xiao Bei Xiao Jing hurriedly wiped the corners of the mouth oil and water, to follow over to serve, Su Yan sent them back to continue to eat, saying that they have hands and feet, wash your face do not want someone to do it for you?

He crossed the courtyard illuminated by the bright moon, and paced slowly up the steps, when he suddenly saw a fair woman standing in the shadow by the door of the bedchamber, with her head lowered in a shy, waiting manner, and asked, startled, “What are you, and how did you get in?”

The woman blessed her body, her voice delicate: “Nu Jia Huang Oriole Er, year sixteen, by order of Li Temple Secretary, came to serve your lordship.”

Su Yan immediately surfaced in front of his eyes, Yuanma Temple Secretary Li Rong that round, smiling fat face, thought this dead fat not only patting the fleshy horse’s ass, but also good at bribes and gifts, launching sugar-coated shells, but unfortunately this adult does not eat this set.

He said to this pretty young girl, “Go back, girl, and tell Li Siqing that this official is not close to women, and that he has wasted his thoughts.”

This sounds righteous, in fact, implies mockery and teasing, I do not know whether Li Rong can understand, or see the beauty does not work, the next time really change a different way.

Oriole is a newcomer to the world of pleasure, eyesight is very high, heard that to serve a big official from the capital, thought it was an old man, behind the scenes is very depressed. The moment she saw this handsome imperial official, whose age was not far from hers, she was immediately enraptured, and now she heard the other party claim that he was “not close to women”, and his mood changed sharply, and he was both regretful and resentful—.

If you don’t get close to women, then you’re a good man. This year, but all the handsome man who can get the eye, three out of ten is the dragon and Yang, the remaining seven in half of the parallel land and water, so that these prostitutes really can not live!

Oriole secretly slandered, her mouth didn’t dare to say anything more, she made a deep bow and retreated with her head bowed.

She walked with lotus steps across the back garden path, when she was suddenly strangled by an arm reaching out from the shadows of the bushes and dragged in by the neck.

The man’s cold, hard, dark voice locked her screams in her throat.

“You’re going to serve him? How? You know how clean a person he is, how could he accept such a lowly bribe! Li Rong really deserves to die! No one will ever drag him down, with me guarding him, no one will ever touch him!”

This is said upside down, and the tone of morose, how to listen to is not like a normal person, Oriole child scared two strands of war, and was pinched can not make a sound, can only whimper choking and begging for mercy.

The man suddenly closed his mouth, and after a moment’s silence, said grimly, “Undress!”

Oriole’s tears were flowing, her hands did not dare to delay for a moment, and she took off her jacket and skirt.

Just about to continue to take off the blasphemy, the man again drank: “Scram!” She saw a pair of scarlet eyes emerge from the darkness of the shade, like the pupils of a beast, taking in the soul, and she was so frightened that she fell to the ground, and then snapped to her senses and fled with a crawl.

A few moments later, the bushes out of a tall figure, wearing tassel pattern makeup flower satin lapel jacket, eight treasure group phoenix cloud knee skirt woman, draped with a head of waterfall-like hanging smooth silk, footsteps fluttering in the direction of the master bedroom.

Su Yan washed his face in the copper basin in the house, the alcohol dissipated some, but more and more sleepy, so he planned to take a nap for a few moments, and wait for Xiao Bei Xiao Jing to finish eating, then greet them to boil water.

Since he hadn’t yet bathed and dressed, he didn’t get on the frame bed, so he leaned on the nearby luohan couch and dozed off with his eyes closed.

Suddenly, he heard someone close to his ear, murmuring in a low voice, “Lord Su …… Lord.”

It’s Chase’s voice, yet it’s a little less …… This is also too close!

Su Yan hit a jolt, opened his eyes to see a woman standing in front of him, at first glance at the clothes, thought it was to return Oriole, immediately frowned and said: “Not let you go, how to drill into my house again. Quickly go, otherwise shouting people in, you a girl family, face where to put.”

“Lord Su is kicking me out?”

It was indeed Ah Chui’s voice! Su Yan blinked his hazy sleepy eyes, and after fixing his eyes on the visitor’s brows, he couldn’t help but lose his smile, “Ah Chui, you’ve stripped the human girl of her clothes? What is this about secretly prying into something that requires such a disguise?”

Before finishing his words, he felt that something was wrong, the other party’s eye pupils had turned a strange scarlet color, the corners of his eyes and mouth and nose vaguely have blood wiped residual traces left behind, and his expression was different, looking like he was not quite sober.

Su Yan sat up and grabbed Jing Hongchou’s hand that was placed on his shoulder and asked urgently, “What’s wrong with you? Your eyes–“

“Eyes, yes,” Jing Hong chased after him and clasped his shoulders, slowly leaning down, his eyes dripping with blood**, “Lord Su look at me, look at me.”

As if pulled by an irresistible gravitational force, Su Yan couldn’t help but look into the depths of his pupils.

He had seen these compelling eyes before, cold and beautiful, nebulae swirling and attracting the light around them, making it impossible to think, only to be mesmerized and dazzled.

But again, it was different from what was seen at this moment – it wasn’t a nebula, but a sea of soul-devouring blood.
