Chapter 22 Duplicity
Chapter 22 Duplicity
Longdu in August is not much cooler because of its location in the north.The pillars of the main hall of the Qing Dynasty were filled with ice to cool off the heat, so the temperature inside the hall was suitable, but as soon as Lin Zhen came out of the main hall of the Qing Dynasty, he was sweating from the heat of the summer wind blowing in his face. The complicated clothes were so annoying that I wished I could take them off on the spot.
Fortunately, the sedan chair outside the door was still waiting. Lin Zhen got into the sedan chair and was about to go home.
Sitting in the carriage, the excitement of coming to the banquet was swept away, and he was even a little unhappy, his mind was full of Princess Yuxian and Xiao Ling's affairs.The prime minister of the country seems to want to match Xiao Ling and the princess. The emperor's attitude is not clear, more like probing, but the most clear attitude in the audience is nothing but the princess herself. She looks like Xiao Ling in love for 10 minutes, facing that cold face He could continue to talk softly, but Xiao Ling remained indifferent, with a cold expression on his face...
But could it be that Xiao Ling pretended to be polite and alienated because he was embarrassed to show his love for the princess in front of his senior brother?
This is very possible, Xiao Ling has only turned [-], and it is understandable that a person of this age is unwilling to reveal his true temperament in front of older family members.
Speaking of which, how did the princess and Xiao Ling meet?Was it when Xiao Ling was named Marquis?Or longer?Looking at the appearance of her little daughter Jiajia, who is deeply in love and unable to extricate herself, did something happen with Xiao Ling?What did Xiao Ling say to her?Did you do anything romantic together in private?
The more Lin Zhen thought about it, the more confused he became, and the feeling of loneliness in his heart spread out. Originally, he should know everything about Xiao Ling, because this is the junior he brought up with one hand, and there should be no one in the world who can match him. He knew Xiao Ling's details.But in the four years after Xiao Ling became a teacher, his impression of Xiao Ling only stayed in which year he was made a marquis and in which year he was stationed in the mansion, everything was no different from the rest of the hearers.
He didn't know who Xiao Ling met or what he did when he was not there, and he couldn't even fathom Xiao Ling's current temperament.
Lin Zhen had never thought deeply about these issues before. Before meeting Xiao Ling again, he was brooding over Yinxi's matter. After arriving in Tokyo, he felt that the two got along pretty well, so he didn't think about other things.
Now that I think about it, Xiao Ling is like a cloud, I can see his calmness at this time, but I don't know where he gathers and leaves, what wind and rain he has experienced, and how many beautiful scenery he has encountered.
It's been four years, but he hasn't been by Xiao Ling's side for a single day.
Lin Zhen frowned, not knowing what was wrong with him, but thinking wildly, he raised the window curtain of the sedan chair annoyedly, staring at the scenes and objects in the palace in a daze.
In a daze, the rockery and flowers in front of me seemed to have turned into a vermilion attic stage, and the buildings were brightly lit.He couldn't help blinking, the rockery was still a rockery, and the flowers and plants were still whispering under the moonlit night.This happened a few times, Lin Zhen couldn't help but wonder, could it be that he was dizzy from heat, so he had frequent hallucinations?
Back in the room, bored, he simply made a pot of tea by himself, but when he raised his eyes, he was startled - he saw the black robed man who often appeared in his dreams, leaning on his chest with his arms folded. in front of the window.
The man's hair was untied, and his long black hair was slightly curly. He looked into the distance, as if he was looking at the night and the moon. Lin Zhen couldn't see his face.
"Who are you?" Lin Zhen vigilantly picked up the sword on the sword stand, stood up, quite vigilant.
The man ignored it, so Lin Zhen raised his voice and shouted again: "Who are you?"
"Then who are you?" The man finally answered, but he didn't answer the question, and he didn't look back at Lin Zhen, his voice was as calm and deep as in a dream.
Lin Zhenlang said, "I'm Lin Zhen."
"Lin Zhen?" The man chuckled, then turned around.
Lin Zhen was shocked when he saw the man's true face.
The black-robed man in front of him actually looks eighty percent like himself, but his eyes are more vicissitudes and introverted.
The man said: "You are not Lin Zhen, you are Du Li."
To leave?Who is Duli?Why does this name sound familiar?It seems...it also appeared in a dream.
A gust of hot wind blew in from outside the window, moonlight poured in from one window, thousands of crow feathers rushed in with the wind, Lin Zhen closed her eyes subconsciously, and shielded herself with her sword.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself lying on the table with a cup of cold tea quietly placed in front of him.
He was startled, and sat up quickly, a cloak slipped from his shoulders and fell to the ground, he looked at the window, there was no one there, a bright moon was hanging on the night outside the window, everything was so peaceful and peaceful.
It was as if everything just now had never happened.
Could it be another dream I had?
"Brother, what's the matter?" Xiao Ling sat across from Lin Zhen at some point, and asked with concern when he saw Lin Zhen was so panicked.
Lin Zhen was extremely tired from the frequent hallucinations and dreams. He sighed and picked up the cloak, "You put it on me?"
Xiao Ling said: "As soon as I came back, I saw senior brother lying on the table and fell asleep. I was afraid that senior brother would catch a cold and it would be difficult to wake senior brother up."
Lin Zhen rubbed his forehead, and it turned out that he fell asleep again and had a dream.What happened to him today? He fell asleep again and again. Is it really because of his physical discomfort?
Xiao Ling said: "Originally I wanted to go with senior brother, but since the princess is by my side, I really can't get out."
Lin Zhen really didn't expect Xiao Ling to explain to himself, and replied: "It's okay, it's okay, the hero is sad about the beauty, and the beauty is by his side, so it's hard to get away." Saying it out, you sound a little sour?
He hurriedly smiled and said: "I... I'm not such a stingy person, hehehehehe, if you want to be the son-in-law, then of course it's great, and it can be regarded as winning glory for the Lin family village. Grand master and master will be happy when they find out."
Xiao Ling had a panoramic view of Lin Zhen's subtle changes, looked at Lin Zhen for a long time, and it seemed that Lin Zhen's smile froze.At this time, Xiao Ling stood up, bent down and quickly kissed the corner of Lin Zhen's mouth, like a dragonfly touching water, like falling flowers.
He frowned, as if he was trying his best to hold back the desire to kiss deeply, and looked at Lin Zhen with deep affection that couldn't be melted away.
Lin Zhen also stared at Xiao Ling blankly, the distance between them was only a finger, Xiao Ling's hot breath sprayed on her face, causing a hot blush.
"Brother, will you be happy?" Xiao Ling said in a deep voice.
Lin Zhen pushed Xiao Ling with his hands angrily, and said, "Xiao Ling! Do you know what you are doing?!"
Xiao Ling held Lin Zhen's fist with his hand, and said quietly: "When we reunited at the foot of Linjiazhuang Mountain, you also said that seeing me so promising, Grand Master and Master will be happy... At that time, I thought Ask, what about you, brother? Are you happy to see me again, seeing me who has become a marquis and become famous?"
Lin Zhen watched Xiao Ling open his fist little by little, interlocking his fingers with such force, an indescribable emotion welled up in his heart.
Such a small sentence has been remembered by him to this day, let alone the cruel words he said to Xiao Ling after Lin Zixi died.
Lin Zhen pretended to be calm and said: "I'm very happy. Xiao Ling, let me go. Just now... I won't pursue it. I will treat it like the kiss between brothers when they were young."
Although they never kissed when they were young, now Lin Zhen can't think of other steps for Xiao Ling to walk down.
Xiao Ling's expression was instantly filled with coldness, and he murmured coldly: "Brother? When I was a child?"
Lin Zhen's hand was released. Seeing Xiao Ling standing there without speaking, he just felt that the atmosphere was too awkward, so he got up with the teapot and wanted to go outside to let the maids pour hot water.
"Snapped--"
Lin Zhen hadn't taken a few steps when she was suddenly dragged and pushed against the wall by Xiao Ling, the teapot fell to pieces on the ground, and her back hurt from hitting the wall.He got angry in his heart, and he was about to get angry, but Xiao Ling gagged his mouth when he raised his head.
Xiao Ling's kiss was eager and deep, with a strong possessive desire, biting Lin Zhen's lips like a wild beast occupying the territory.Lin Zhen didn't know anything about it, so she was stunned on the spot, didn't clenched her teeth, let Xiao Ling step in, and responded to Xiao Ling clumsily and instinctively by surprise.
After all, Lin Zhen is also a young man, driven by desire, he also wanted to break free from the passive situation, and began to attack Xiao Ling.For a moment, the two men's lips and tongues met, more like they were biting each other. At this moment, Lin Zhen could only hear the ambiguous sound of saliva and the beating of her heart, and her head was already dazed.
Xiao Ling held Lin Zhen's face in one hand and put his arms around Lin Zhen's waist in the other, and kissed him more deeply, as if nothing was enough.Later, seeing that Lin Zhen was about to suffocate, he left the territory reluctantly, and kissed Lin Zhen's forehead, eyebrows, eye corners, and nose bit by bit, and the dense kisses fell on the chin. It was the friction between the lips and the skin, Xiao Ling stretched out the tip of his tongue, licked the contours of Lin Zhen's face, and finally licked Lin Zhen's lips, as if he was drawing Lin Zhen's mouth shape, teasing him desperately.
Lin Zhen felt weak all over, his eyes were blurred, and he had already lost his mind. He couldn't stand Xiao Ling's teasing, so he threw himself forward and kissed Xiao Ling fiercely.
The two kissed passionately, and the lower part had already stiffened. Xiao Ling's arm around Lin Zhen wandered restlessly on Lin Zhen's body, and finally lifted Lin Zhen's robe, and touched the extraordinarily energetic bulge.
Lin Zhen finally regained some sanity now, although she was burning with desire, she still hastily pushed Xiao Ling away.Due to the weakness of his legs, he staggered back a few steps to the side, holding on to the cabinet, and managed to stand still.
"Xiao Ling...what the hell are you doing!" Lin Zhen panicked after realizing what the two of them were doing just now, facing Xiao Ling, only anger remained in his heart.
Xiao Ling looked at Lin Zhen who avoided him like a snake and scorpion, the desire|desire in his eyes gradually faded, his whole body seemed to be poured cold water from the top of his head, extinguishing the eagerness in his heart, and letting the enthusiasm that was finally revealed a little bit. cool down.His tone was a little mocking: "Brother might as well regard this as a kiss between brothers when they were young."
Lin Zhen was furious, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Do you think I'm a fool! Get out!"
Xiao Ling stepped forward, grabbed Lin Zhen's shoulder, and his anger was also faintly surging, "Idiot? I'm afraid you are not the one who is considered a fool! Isn't this all your own self-deception?"
"I'm your senior brother! How could you do this to me?" Lin Zhen was about to vomit blood.
Xiao Ling said coldly: "Didn't senior brother himself be very involved just now?"
"I... I'm a man of blood, so of course I can't stand your teasing!"
Xiao Ling gritted his teeth and said: "Could it be that other people besides me tease you like this, and you will respond with such forgetfulness?"
"Of course not!" Lin Zhen was in a hurry, obviously he was the one who was kissed suddenly, why did he feel a little bit wrong when he started arguing at this time?
Xiao Ling's eyes were as deep as midnight, but at this moment, he showed a look of sadness, and said: "Brother, why do you just refuse to face up to my feelings for you? Besides, you obviously have feelings for me."
Lin Zhen's ears were blushing, and she said, "Nonsense! If it weren't for you, I would have already started a family! In the future... I will also marry a wife and have children..." At the end of the day, he lost all confidence and started a family ?Speaking of which, for so many years, he really didn't like any girl.
Xiao Ling sneered: "Brother want to get married?"
Lin Zhen was puzzled by his smile: "What are you laughing at?"
Xiao Ling's expression turned ruthless, with a hostility lingering between his brows: "Brother, just marry me, and I'll deal with another Lin Zixi."
Lin Zhen's face changed when he heard the words, and he remembered Zixi's matter again, and said violently, "Xiao Ling, you! You are insane! Get out of here!"
Xiao Ling stood there, looked at him coldly, and ignored him.
"Yes, this is the imperial palace, you are Lord Marquis, and I am just a commoner." Xiao Ling was so mad at Lin Zhen, "I should get out!"
Xiao Ling watched Lin Zhen leave angrily, just stood there, and did not move even after Lin Zhen left.
"boom--"
Suddenly, he overturned the table and slammed the cabinet on the ground, like a raging beast, exuding a dangerous aura all over his body.
