Chapter 137: It’s Not Your Honor’s Fault

Winter days are short and nights are long, and as we see the sky darkening, it is only half an hour or so before the forest and field go from all-night smoke to out-of-sight.

A jinyiwei finished eating fried peanuts with his back against a tree trunk, lit the lamp beside him, looked up again in the direction where the hot spring pool was located, and muttered, “It’s nightfall, and Lord Su is still soaking where, not afraid of water snakes?”

Gao Shuo gave him a blank look, “Bullshit, where would a water snake come from in a hot spring!”

That brocade guard was unconvinced and added: “Even if there are no snakes, the black goo in case you accidentally slip and fall unconscious how is it. Should …… I go to see the situation?”

Gosaku sneered, “Do you want to go and see someone in peace or in the shower?”

That brocade guard reddened his face, about to jump up and fight with him. Chu Yuan stopped, “Shut up and keep a good watch!”

He thought for a moment and called out loudly in the direction of “Plum Fairy Soup”, “My lord, it’s getting dark, do you have any orders?”

Su Yan’s response soon came, the sound of words across three hundred paces of grass and trees, vaguely audible: “Nothing, I’m soaking too much, a moment to get up again. I’ll call you when I’m ready.”

Gao Shuo lay on a tree branch, arms crossed behind his head, biting the stalk of grass in his mouth, and couldn’t help but heave a laugh, “Hear that? It’s getting too much, I say none of you stir up Lord Su’s excitement.”

The previous jinshiwei returned his blank stare, “You’re not the one who’s having a good time, so what’s the point of being happy?”

Gosaku retorted silently, You know shit!

Suddenly a black shadow swept by with a breeze, and several people, like an enemy, drew their swords and leaped up, drinking, “What kind of person?”

Jing Hongchou appeared in the gloom and said in a deep voice, “My lord is still in the pool? Alone?”

Gosaku asked rhetorically, “Wasn’t it one person who soaked up the solo soup, or was it several? Be honest and wait here.”

Jing Hong chased frowning, “You guys didn’t hear the water rattling?”

The brocade guards listened sideways and shook their heads. Gao Shuo didn’t look good, “What’s wrong with swimming a few laps while soaking in the soup and the water rattling?”

Jing Hong chased after him, still uneasy, and said, “I’ll go over and take a look.”

Now not only Gao Shuo, several of the brocade guards present reached out to stop. Chu Yuan said, “I just asked, and my lord is unharmed. I’m afraid it’s not proper for you to approach the hot springs without orders, as you are suspected of prying into people’s privacy.”

Jing Hongchou was already impatient and coldly said, “I am your personal guard. Close protection is my duty!”

The words did not fall, people have been like an arrow off the string, split leaves through the forest and go. Chu Yuan and other people only feel the wind rushing face, a moment actually failed to stop.

Gao Shuo let out a loud shout, “–Jing Hong Chase!”

Three hundred paces away, Jing Hong chased as if it were only a stone’s throw away, almost blinking as he swept to the edge of the pool.

At the moment the cold moon out of the east mountain, mercury moonlight reflecting on the snow, refracted white light, ordinary people can vaguely see the outline of things. And Jing red chase eyesight is too good, the poolside scene is almost the slightest bit visible.

Still more than a dozen feet away, he saw the poolside under the old plum tree, Su adults naked draped in long hair, face down was forced to press between the spring stones, ambushed by the man on top of him slammed, let out a low roar with a trill, apparently has climbed the peak not to speak.

Jing Hong chased his heart suspicious, put down Su Yan, turned to scrutinize him, “Why does your lordship want to say something …… is something else?”

Su Yan “this and that” for a long time, and finally lowered his head in shame: “It’s me who didn’t reject him.”

Jinghong Chase froze.

After a moment of hatred, he called out, “Lord Su!”

He had been used to killing and kidnapping, and knew that when some victims were subjected to violent coercion, they had to rely on the other party’s attitude in order to survive, because life and death were in the hands of the abuser. In this case, the victim will be easily moved by the abuser’s “kindness” to show a little mercy, thus creating a pathological dependence on him, and sometimes will also have pity, gratitude and even love for the abuser.

But these feelings are twisted and wrong, another psychic injury brought on by violence.

Lord Sue may not have strongly rejected it at the time, but it was not his intention to do so, but rather he has always been stuck in the shadows and suffered greatly from it.

Su Yan was called “Lord Su” by this painfully cutting “Lord Su”, so red in the face and ears that he could not wait to drill through a crack in the ground.

Jing Hongchu slowly clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and slowly loosened them again. As best he could, he said in the softest tone he could muster, “It’s not your lordship’s fault.”

“Isn’t it ……” Su Yan mumbled sheepishly.

“No!” Jing Hongchou was decisive, “From now on, I will never let him get one step closer to Your Excellency. In time, your lordship will be free of his influence.”

Su Yan always feel where a little wrong, but can not think of it, some annoyed frowned: “After all, he and I have a life friendship, at least …… uh, at least a brother, and the same dynasty as an official, how can not be close. And between me and him, we ……”

Jing Hong chased the dark thought, this heart poison in too deep, if the tiger and wolf medicine to force the extraction, afraid of hurting his body, not as good as Xu Xu Tu Zhi, first let the adults alienate that guy again.

So he consoled, “Any more entanglements between your lordship and him will always be resolved in the end, so first relax and don’t think about him.”

Su Yan sighed, “It’s useless to think about it more, you’re right about that. Let nature take its course.”

Jing Hong chased after him and carried him again, quickly returning to the camp and sending Lord Su into the carriage. Turning around, he brought in another basin of warm water and was about to clean him.

Su Yan was embarrassed and grabbed the water basin and cotton handkerchief, “I’ll do it myself ……”

Jing Hong chased after him, “Didn’t my subordinate say that in the future, the matter of serving your lord in close proximity from now on will all be left to me.”

Su Yan did not agree, Jing Hong chased without saying a word, put his own adult to the chair cushion a press, began to take off his boots and pants for him. Su Yan struggled and flailed, and even drank to stop him, but he didn’t shake the personal guard’s determination.

This is to be placed in the usual, Jing Hong chasing never so big dog dare, dare to force off the pants of Lord Su, however, today saw the scene, so he was deeply stimulated. Coupled with the Su master was caught cheating, under the heart of shame, but also did not have the usual that the head of the faction, the momentum on the contrary by the concubine prevailed.

After his pants were stripped, Jing Hongchou burned his cheeks and ears with the mindset of an admirer while checking the wounds with the calmness and professionalism belonging to an assassin, and found that there were no injuries, not even redness or swelling, thinking that the hot spring water had the effect of astringing and reducing the swelling, and so he let go of half of his heart.

With a flushed and serious face, he carefully cleaned it with a cotton handkerchief moistened with water, even hooking out a little bit of the internal residue to clean it up.

Su Yan crouched on the bench, covering his face with his sleeve, and easily endured until he finished cleaning, couldn’t wait to put his pants back on, and blasted the personal guards who served him very attentively towards the outside of the carriage.

Jing Hong chased and refused to go, and wanted to give the spiritually poisoned Lord Su another plucking and relief.

Annoyed, Su Yan flung the wet cotton handkerchief on his face and said, “Relief my ass! I have nothing to do, I did it with Shen Qi, it’s consensual, there’s nothing to say!”

Jing Hong chased when he gave up on himself, more pity and heartache, and hated Shen Qi more deeply.

Why don’t we just find an opportunity to do away with the dog Chitou without showing any signs, and don’t let Lord Su realize that it was me who did it. People die and the lights go out, even the biggest heart poison will be solved with time. Jing Hong chased out of the carriages, the heart is like this thought.
