Chapter 41 (2/2)
Fu Shen noticed the other man's lack of co a bit devious about this, as if he had latched onto Yan Xiaohan's Achilles' heel of his secret crush on him and couldn't help but always tentatively sound hi forward to the expression he'd have after thetoI have soyou?” Fu Shen pinched his cheek like a pervert ”Not a one You're always there”
Yan Xiaohan knew full well that his sugary words weren't to be counted on, but he still autouiled into docility
Their two cupssound as they ulp Yan Xiaohan took this time to promptly refill it for him ”Ease up a bit Alcohol is better when you don't drink it like that”
”Don't worry This Marquis has high alcohol tolerance,” Fu Shen responded carelessly ”If you're afraid that I'uest roo those words, Marquis?” Yan Xiaohan asked frigidly ”From the first day you arrived until nohen have you ever been ent,” Fu Shen said with eer a child gets, the harder it is to control the about ‘liking me most' before, and now you kno to humph”
Yan Xiaohan instantly deflated
The two had enough of their childish back-and-forth Taking advantage of the tiotten to their heads, where they were tipsy yet especially clear-headed, they brought forth the o track this down I don't feel at ease with the person behind hiht,” Fu Shen said ”It's not just because of the thing with my uncle He didn't succeed at the assassination the first tiain There's whitedew, too; if it's not contained, it's going to lead to disaster sooner or later”
”If he wasn't in that seat, you wouldn't be trapped in the capital”
”Anyone in it would be leery of me It's the same for you That's not the crux of the problele prince is hardly suitable for the hbor has their eyes fixed on us The Eravely ill, but he's always had an unyielding attitude regarding the borders, and only he can suppress the neighboring countries on all four sides
Not counting the Crown Prince, the Princes of Jin and Qi are both closest to literary officials Think about it Of the Generals on the four fronts, the Five Great Battalions of the capital, and your Irasp?
Once the position of E it, it'd be iet the majority favor of the Court's members in a short amount of tie of the vacancy to come in, and when that time comes, the Northern Yan Iron Cavalry will bear the brunt of it Who could I find to talk reason with?”
Yan Xiaohan also thought it over ”Now that Chunyang's dead, which direction are you planning to investigate in?”
”Southwest” Fu Shen took a sip of wine ”I said before that Chunyang's manner of conduct was like that of side hi back in the day, the only re officer currently alive and well in the world is the County Prince of Xiping”
”Duan Guihong?”
”Mhm The only County Prince of the present dynasty that doesn't share a surna was pacified in the second year of Yuantai, he was also in randfather's troops He was later transferred to the Southwest and has been guarding it for a decade I've heard that he had a rather deep friendshi+p with ht still have a recollection of things fro was just a pawn in a game The County Prince is far off in the Southwest, so it stands to reason that it'd be very difficult for the scope of his influence to successfully operate in the capital This hed ”If I kneas related to it, would I still be needing to drown my sorrows in alcohol here? Aside from hi related to the Northern Yan Cavalry for the ti You should reflect on it, too If the source of whitedew isn't discovered, hoill your Flying Dragon Guard suffer?”
Yan Xiaohan detected that the other was showing so to lack reason He put down his cup and took the wine pot, intending on calling it a day and having Fu Shen wash up and go to bed
Who could have known that when he reached out and touched it, it'd actually be e, Yan Xiaohan hadn't been paying paying attention to the frequency of his toasts Fu Shen had drank up le word
His scalp went nu that Fu Shen's drunken state was a bit on the better side and he wouldn't by any o nuts It's not that he's terrified of hienuinely wouldn't be able to beat hi the brain Fu Shen's eyes were half-lidded as he cale his clothes for hi onto the bed, he displayed total obedience and pliability
Yan Xiaohan's heart gradually calhed in relief, he si
Before he could finish his thoughts, the drunkard suddenly said so at a low volume Yan Xiaohan hadn't heard it clearly, so he leaned over to ask, ”Wh—”
With a bang, the world spun
By the ti him onto the inner side of the bed The one on top of hi down on hi yourself at me, hm?”
Yan Xiaohan hurriedly went to es! Don't kneel, get down!”
His ar face-down and face-planting into the hollow of the other's neck He still refused to give up, however, and insisted on getting up to look at his face
”Jingyuan, don't make trouble…” Yan Xiaohan said with exasperation
”Han”
He paused for a split second, believing himself to have misheard ”What did you call me?” he asked incredulously
”Han” Fu Shen tenderly kissed the tip of his nose, then moved to the corner of his lips ”Han…”
Those words wereliquor, as all Yan Xiaohan could feel was his entire body about to heat up
Unexpectedly, Fu Shen had another sentence to say, and though it was vague and hoarse, his voice was pere loves you a lot”
The translator says: RIP Yan Xiaohan, he is 100 dead
