Chapter 46 - II
When they arrived at the place, Imperial Teacher Wen found that the lights in the courtyard had been turned off and there was no one around. “He must have sneaked out to play again, this kid!” Imperial Teacher Wen bent down and put down Lei Ya, and pushed open the courtyard door with a stern face.
He must wait there to see when this kid would come back!
Before Imperial Teacher Wen’s butt landed on the stone bench, he suddenly heard a cry of pain coming from the room. He was stunned. This…
Imperial Teacher Wen froze on the spot for a moment, then slowly took a few steps closer. The movement could be heard more and more clearly.
“Huo Yao, you…”
Xie Zuo’s curse was blocked.
Imperial Teacher Wen stumbled out of the door and had no sleep all night.
.
The next day, Xie Zuo received an order to enter the city, and at the same time received a request from Imperial Teacher Wen to report that he was ill and wanted to go home.
Xie Zuo had a headache. He respected Imperial Teacher Wen in his heart, but the old man was stubborn and conservative. When he suddenly found out the truth last night, he must feel so bad and suddenly got sick after thinking so much.
“Hey, I was ordered to go. I will visit Imperial Teacher first. Don’t rush into the city.”
Huo Yao said: “I will accompany you.”
Xie Zuo waved his hand, “You’d better not go. I’m afraid the old man will be angry immediately when he sees you. It’s over, I’ll go and coax him first.”
“I’ll wait for you outside.” Huo Yao insisted.
“Okay.”
When they arrived at Imperial Teacher Wen’s courtyard, Huo Yao stopped outside the door, “Go ahead.”
Xie Zuo was about to enter but was pulled back by Huo Yao, and he managed to escape with his lips reddened by the kiss.
After Xie Zuo entered the door, he touched his numb lips and shook his head helplessly. He discovered that Huo Yao appeared to be fair and magnanimous on the surface, but he was actually very petty. He would remember clearly whoever offended him or made him unhappy and would definitely find an opportunity to take revenge.
It was the same last night. He knew that Imperial Teacher Wen had come in, and he also knew that the old man would definitely not be able to bear their relationship. He even forced Xie Zuo to make a sound, now he made the old man sick!
This was revenge for Imperial Teacher Wen, who always talked to Xie Zuo to take in concubines and have more children.
“The Great Thunder Deity who stands tall on the sky and the earth, but has a heart smaller than a needle.” Xie Zuo complained, walked around the screen, and carefully came to Imperial Teacher Wen’s bed, “Teacher?”
Imperial Teacher Wen was lying on the bed with a pale face, his eyes closed, and he said nothing.
“Teacher, please open your eyes and look at me.” Xie Zuo knelt down in front of the bed.
Imperial Teacher Wen turned his back, “I can’t bear the kneel from His Highness. Please go back.”
“Teacher.” Xie Zuo reached out and shook Imperial Teacher Wen’s shoulder gently, “Look at me!”
Imperial Teacher Wen, with a long sigh, sat up slowly, tears streaming down his face. He held Xie Zuo tightly with his skinny hands, “My child, I think it was that bastard who coerced you, right?”
“No…”
Imperial Teacher Wen stopped him, “I have known for a long time that he was not normal. He showed no interest in getting married at such an old age, and he had no women around him to serve him. He actually… had set his sights on you. I have to report it to the king and get rid of him!”
“Teacher, I’m sorry…”
“You don’t have to apologize to me! My child, I’m sorry for you. The Huo family is so powerful that you had no choice but to be forced. I knew…”
“Teacher!” Xie Zuo suddenly raised his voice, “I volunteered. I love him and couldn’t live without him!”
Imperial Teacher Wen was stunned, and then he fell back on the bed, pointing at him with a trembling finger, “You, you…”
“Teacher, I’m not as shameless as Emperor Zu. Forcing others to be nice to me. We were in love with each other. If it weren’t for Huo Yao, I wouldn’t have come to this mortal world. Please be calm!”
Imperial Teacher Wen was shocked. He had some illusions, His Highness was still young, he would sometimes go astray. After Princess Li got married in, he would know the beauty of a normal married life and could slowly break up with Huo Yao. But what His Highness had just said was so profound; he attached the meaning of life to Huo Yao. This… Imperial Teacher Wen cried bitterly, “Your Majesty, I’m sorry for you! The Deity is jealous of Yunzhao, why…”
Xie Zuo comforted Imperial Teacher Wen for a while, but the old man cried so pitifully. Alas, these mortals were so stubborn, and their thoughts were so uncivilized. What happened to the broken sleeves? If he were to know Xie Xiao’s record as a strong oppressive woman, the old man would probably burst into tears on the spot.
Xie Zuo talked so much that he finally got Imperial Teacher Wen to agree to accompany him into the palace. When he saw the old man’s change of mind, he hurriedly called the favorite student Mu Rong over and asked Mu Rong to comfort him.
.
Mu Rong sent Xie Zuo and Huo Yao out with a flirtatious look, “Brother, you always ask me to clean up the messes you cause. How can you thank me?”
Xie Zuo turned around, held Mu Rong’s face with both hands, and leaned towards him, getting closer.
“Brother!” Mu Rong waved his hands randomly, his face flushed, “Let go…” General Huo was still beside him, and he hadn’t lived enough yet, he didn’t want to die.
Xie Zuo tilted his head, “Mu Rong, can you smile? You’ve been grimacing lately, and your brows have turned into knots. When I see you, it feels like you’ve taken a mouthful of Chinese medicine.”
Mu Rong really wanted to be beat him. He was so angry, “Didn’t I do it for you!”
Xie Zuo tugged at his face again, “I’m very fine, just relax and play with the teacher.”
Mu Rong dared to be angry but did not dare to say anything, and broke away from Xie Zuo’s devil’s claw, rubbing his face to take care of Imperial Teacher Wen.
Imperial Teacher Wen had been languid for two days. When Mu Rong was giving him medicine, he accidentally mentioned that Xie Zuo was waiting for him to enter the city, thus made him anxious and urged him several times. “I told you earlier, hurry up, go and tell your highness, I’m already well and can go to the city immediately!”
.
After finishing Imperial Teacher Wen, Xie Zuo hugged Lei Ya, got into the carriage specially sent to pick him up, and drove towards his home.
Huo Yao rode beside the driver as usual. Xie Zuo opened the window and called him in a low voice: “Come closer.”
Huo Yao tightened the reins and leaned against the window.
Xie Zuo smiled like a fox: “Don’t leave tonight.”
Huo Yao answered seriously: “Yes.”
‘You liked to pretend, the more serious you are in front of others, the uncivilized you will be behind others, hum!’
Xie Zuo stuck out his tongue at him, sat upright and began to rub and play with Lei Ya again.
Seeing that he liked Lei Ya so much, Huo Yao couldn’t help but think of the curse of the old wild ginseng plant in Beiyuan Mountain.
Xie Zuo, could he really have a child? Would he willing to give birth to a child for him…
