Chapter 39: Aunt Shi made me suffer [Seeking follow-up reading]
The clear and mellow liquor went down the throat, forming a line of ice and fire on the lips, teeth and stomach. When the gong sounds outside the courtyard were heard, the two people drinking in the house were already drunk, their eyes were hazy, and they spoke more and more without restraint.
"Three, it's already three o'clock, why aren't you going back?"
Wei Mingqi was leaning on the couch in his side room, looking across the small table at the peach blossom eyes opposite him, and said in a drunken tone:
"Let me tell you, there are no extra rooms in my house. If you don't leave, you'll have to stay with me tonight."
The light on the table was dim, and under the halo of light and shadow, her peach blossom eyes and cheeks were covered with rouge glaze, making her eyebrows and eyes look even more heroic and handsome.
"Why, you can't drink?"
The man opposite him held his wine glass with a half-smile on his face, his heroic sword-like eyebrows slightly raised in a provocative manner: "Two grown men, just lie down together all night after getting drunk, are you afraid that I will mess with you?"
Wei Mingqi's mouth twitched, and his eyes blatantly moved downwards: "Feng'er, generally speaking, there are only two possibilities for a good-looking man like you to make such a vulgar joke."
"One is that as a man your sexual orientation is truly a mystery, you are a bunny."
"These two——"
He played the long tail tune leisurely.
The woman opposite narrowed her peach blossom eyes. After a moment, she picked up the wine jar and shook it. Seeing that there was only half a jar left, she smashed it on the table.
"Make a bet."
She patted the jar of wine and said, "Let's bet on the questions we are both curious about. Whoever gets scared later will have to drink the rest."
Wei Mingqi didn't mind drinking, he went there just to get drunk, and he was also really curious about how Shi Fengguan would prove himself.
You can't really take off your pants, right?
"Let's talk about it in advance——"
Wei Mingqi gave a shot of prevention: "Don't dry your bird in front of me. I'm afraid of getting stye."
"Ah."
A disdainful chuckle.
After reaching a tacit understanding, Shi Fengguan stared at him motionlessly. Just when Wei Mingqi was feeling curious, he saw something suddenly push up from under the other person's robe.
It’s so high——
In an instant, Wei Mingqi's expression turned extremely ugly, and he almost squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "Shi Fengguan, get the hell out of my house!"
"Hahaha--"
The peach blossom eyes laughed happily, and waved her hand to signal him not to be nervous: "Don't worry, I don't miss you in my heart, I'm just pretending to be a girl in Yuchunlou."
"..."
Wei Mingqi still felt uneasy. He admitted that because of Shi Fengguan's appearance and figure, he always had some different guesses in his mind.
Especially the reaction of Shi Fengque in the palace also proved this point, but I didn't expect——
Aunt Shi made him suffer so much.
You said your nephew is really a man. Why did you get nervous at the beginning? No matter how much he "takes care of you", can he take care of you to the bed?
"It's your turn!"
The man opposite her slammed the table and urged, "Let me see if you are a eunuch. I don't want you to take off your pants. Just do what I did just now."
Gulu gulu——
Wei Mingqi didn't waste any words. He picked up the jar of wine and started drinking it. He didn't care that his clothes were soaked by the wine. He quickly finished half the jar of wine.
Snapped!
Putting down the empty pot, Wei Mingqi pointed at her with a flushed face: "Whether you crawl or roll, you are not allowed to stay here! Don't look for me to drink at night in the future. During working hours, it's called job title, hiccup——"
After saying this, he fell down on the table.
The peach blossom eyes smiled but said nothing, still sipping the glass of wine leisurely. After a while, she heard a faint snoring from the opposite side, and then she raised her head and said leisurely:
“So realistic.”
"But we are friends after all."
After saying that, she got down from the bed quietly, glanced around and quickly looked at the bookcase. She walked forward and flipped through the books inside. Her sword-like eyebrows couldn't help but twitching.
Good guy.
"The Evil Disciple Illustrated Hardcover Edition" "The Queen of Dragon City"
The Concubine in the Deep Palace
The Emperor's Fierceness
There are so many people in the Wei family. Not even one relative can watch these. Shi Fengguan has a new understanding of the boldness of the man behind her.
Carefully putting the books back, she looked inside and finally saw what she wanted.
shhhhh--
For a moment, the only sound in the room was a slight rustling.
After a while, he put the file back to its place, and Shi Fengguan looked up with a faint light in his eyes. He stood there for a moment and was about to leave.
"Just leave like that?"
Suddenly, a man's soft voice came from the bed.
Shi Fengguan's body froze instantly, and he instinctively reached for his waist, but who would carry a knife when visiting a "friend's" home?
"When I first entered the West Mansion, you didn't go with Duan Ming and his gang, and you even stood on my side when we left. No matter what you think in your heart, I will always remember your kindness."
"..."
Shi Fengguan lowered her eyes and clenched her cheeks. She didn't understand where she had gone wrong. There should have been nothing wrong with her answer that day.
Wei Mingqi had already climbed up from the couch and took out a jade bracelet from his arms: "On the day of Song Chaozhen, I entered the palace and encountered a masked thief scouting the East Garden. I caught him and I started investigating the case. I found out that there was a Southwestern envoy who entered the palace that day, and one of them happened to be your relative. Isn't that a coincidence?"
East Garden?
Shi Fengguan's pupils shrank, and he turned around and saw the jade bracelet in his hand.
"My aunt—"
"She's fine."
Wei Mingqi first dispelled her doubts, and then said: "I began to think that the thief's target was your aunt, but when I tried to test her, she knew nothing, so I thought of you, and your reaction did not disappoint me."
Shi Fengguan looked at him in a daze.
"Wei Mingqi..."
"I have checked a lot of files these days and found an interesting story about your aunt. In the eleventh year of Wanzhen, when your aunt was in favor, one day she looked at the falling flowers and lamented the passing of time. When Emperor Jingzong heard this, he ordered the four generals to search the world for the phoenix blood and tortoise spirit to keep his concubine Shi young forever. This matter was not resolved until the 'Six Feudatories Rebellion' and was cited by the world as one of the evidences of Emperor Jingzong's stupidity in his later years."
Looking at Shi Fengguan whose body was gradually stiffening, Wei Mingqi paused and then said slowly:
"More than ten years have passed, and not many people can remember this incident now, so no one would think about it. If Shi Guoen, the commander of the Four Hubs at that time, found the Four Spiritual Artifacts, but out of selfishness, did not give them to the Lord..."
"do not talk!"
Shi Fengguan looked cold and asked in a harsh tone, "Be direct, what are you going to do with me and my aunt?"
"..."
Wei Mingqi's disappointment grew, but he still looked at him and said, "I didn't report this to the court, so..."
There was no further conversation to go on.
Because the vigilance in those peach blossom eyes did not decrease at all, but deepened a lot.
Right.
After all, it is one of the four rare spiritual objects, and it is also the Phoenix Blood Turtle Spirit that can keep one young and immortal. If word gets out, even the old Wu Xianer who lives in seclusion in the world will be tempted by it.
"Your aunt will leave the palace to visit her relatives in two days."
Wei Mingqi lay back on the couch, his hands resting on his head, and said calmly:
"get out."
The first update will be a little later, probably around one or two o'clock.
