For hot pot to be good, you have to work on the soup base and the bowl of ingredients.

Gu Yuanbai let people on the simplest spices, this time there is no chili, they took anise, scallion, ginger and pepper over the iron pot a copy of the vinegar as the bottom, which is mixed with some slightly spicy flavor and sour vinegar flavor, and then sprinkled with some green green onion segments, green point of the deep water, which will be a success.

Gu Yuanbai can not eat to stimulate the stomach, hot pot in the hot pot is only to enhance the flavor, the material is tomato material, so the dip in the spicy flavor is also extremely little, or even no. Xue Yuan in front of the dip to taste heavier, just this time there is no wind, hot pot will be placed in the courtyard, with a different flavor.

Xue Yuan ate a few bites, the sweat on his head followed, a table full of dishes to be rounded up, soundly said, "Smooth!"

This dip is really well made, mouthfuls of appetizers, and you can't stop eating after you're full. Gu Yuanbai's self-control was fine, and he put down his chopsticks when he was eight minutes full. As soon as he put down his chopsticks, Xue Yuan, who was sweating profusely on the opposite side of the table, looked up at him, "Not eating?"

"Full." Gu Yuanbai took a sip of hot water.

Xue Yuan reached out, took away his dipping sauce, and threw a brainful of meat from the table into the pot, he really only likes meat and not veggies, Gu Yuanbai deliberately, "Why doesn't Xue Qing eat vegetables?"

Xue Yuan sighed, so he turned his chopsticks around and chucked a vegetable leaf out.

He had adapted well to the taste of the tomato pot, and compared to the clear soup, he preferred the meat dish that was tinted with the tomato flavor. After the two people ate for a while, the aroma of the boiling hot pot overflowed the entire courtyard, and the people waiting here secretly swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva from time to time, their cravings being aroused and running out of their mouths. Gu Yuanbai looked at the crowd's expression, sideways head to explain Tian Fusheng: "Wait a while I rest, you take them also eat a meal, material on the previous leftover, do not need to close to wait."

Tian Fusheng led the people to thank him joyfully, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward."

"There's something interesting about this iron pot of His Majesty's," Xue Yuan took off his coat, "and it's even more interesting to eat, so I guess it won't be long before it's just as good as that bed of kangs and will become a sought-after good for all the hundred officials and clansmen."

Gu Yuanbai nodded and nodded again at the thick soup in the pot, "But this soup is just unique."

"I also dipped into the blessings of Your Majesty," Xue Yuan's mouth kept talking, "Speaking of iron pots, Your Majesty, iron should never be traded when exchanging markets with the nomads at the border."

This naturally cannot be forgotten. Daheng merchants are not allowed to sell the nomads any iron objects, even kitchen knives, and the nomads are only allowed to come with old kitchen knives to replace them with new ones.

These details have long been in the Xue old general when Gu Yuanbai will be one by one told him, at this time the heart is not panicked and not in a hurry: "It should be so."

Xue Yuan glanced at him and laughed, "It looks like I'm the one who said a sentence in vain."

Gu Yuanbai smiled without saying anything.

After the meal, Xue Yuan accompanied Gu Yuanbai to take a turn around to kill some food. Suddenly saw a shivering spring flower growing in the corner of the railing next to the lake, Xue Yuan's eyes moved, went forward and bent down to pick it.

The corner of Gu Yuanbai's eye inadvertently slid over the foot of Xue Yuan's robe, and the tattoos on the robe slid out a stream of light from top to bottom as he bent over. The saint retracted his eyes and casually said, "Xue Qing, you don't even spare the wildflowers on the roadside?"

Xue Yuan couldn't understand his jest, reached out and handed over the tender yellow Yingchun, "Your Holiness, this color I think is good, it's a unique good light in the middle of late winter, do you like it, Your Holiness?"

"I see you quite like it. Since I think it's good, then Xue Qing will make a few goose-yellow garments to wear for a change," Gu Yuanbai ignored his provocative tactics, "Change them day after day, even if you go to war, this color will catch people."

Xue Yuan's eyelids fluttered and he didn't move as he threw the spring flowers into the lake, "I suddenly don't feel good about it again."

After returning from his snack, Gu Yuanbai went back to his room to lie down and read a book. He was reading a book of words, and Xue Yuanyao was carving wood on the side, looking up at Gu Yuanbai from time to time, then lowering his head to get busy again. Gu Yuanbai flipped through a page of the book and casually asked, "Xue Jiuyao, have you read those books in your room?"

Xue Jiuyao was frank, "Haven't read a single word."

Gu Yuanbai said in his heart that it was true, he wasn't surprised, and read two more lines under the light before he slowly said, "So many books placed there on display but not reading them, it's indeed bluffing enough, Chang Yuyan marveled at your roomful of books when he spoke with me, and thought that you're a man of talent."

Xue Yuan seemed to have heard some kind of joke, "He thinks I know this book by heart?"

"Even if you don't read it familiarly, you are also slightly proficient in a few points," Gu Yuanbai, "I really thought that you are inside the show which is rich in poetic splendor."

"It's not that bad," Xue Yuan blew on the wood shavings and rightfully said, "The books that I spent the silver on and placed here are naturally my things. It's all my stuff now, and what's inside is also my stuff."

His Holiness was noncommittal and said nothing, but after a moment, he said softly, "Roughneck."

Xue Yuan laughed, thinking that this is called thick?

Gu Yuanbai had finished flipping through a book and was already feeling sleepy. Xue Yuan looked at his appearance and rose to take his leave, observing his words. Tian Fusheng went up to serve His Majesty after he left, he had already washed off the smell of hot pot, in order to avoid bumping into His Majesty, also did not eat something that would leave a taste in the mouth of the nose, the old eunuchs can handle, the two small eunuchs on the side of the busy bedding will be properly organized.

Gu Yuanbai was kept busy by the people, and when he raised his head from the book, he met the look of the head of the guards who wanted to speak.

He raised his eyebrows, "Zhang Xu, come here and talk to me."

A eunuch was standing at the head of the bed combing the saint's hair, the specially polished and rounded wood was so comfortable that the brain released its fatigue every time it was brushed from the scalp. After the head guard walked to the bedside, the saint had already closed his eyes, leaving only a head of green silk weaving like satin in the hands of the little eunuch.

The head of the guards couldn't speak again, and the saint lazily said, "If you have something in your heart, then speak straight."

"Your Majesty," finally, the head of the guards said, "Lord Xue he ......" unprofessional stifled out a sentence, "he really has not read a single book? "

Gu Yuanbai kindly laughed, "If he says he hasn't read it, then he hasn't read it. Otherwise, with Xue Jiuyao's character, he would have already taken the initiative to show off to me when I asked him."

The Squire is a good man.

He'd had just a few intuitive doubts, and the words were coming out of his mouth but he couldn't say them. What if everything was just a misunderstanding on his part? If Lord Xue was truly loyal to His Majesty, wouldn't he be pushing Lord Xue into the fire by saying this?

Even if it is Lord Chu, he is still unable to speak to His Majesty because of the lack of evidence, how can he treat Lord Xue in such a way because of a small suspicion at this time?

The head guard blamed himself, "I have nothing else I wish to say, Your Majesty, there is no more doubt in my mind."

Gu Yuanbai said, "Then retire."

The candles in the room were extinguished one by one, and the people retreated outside to keep watch.

*

Gu Yuanbai subconsciously reminded himself to guard against Xue Yuan's seduction, so when there was a slight movement in the room, his sanity sobered up, maintaining his long, drawn-out breaths to feel the movements around him.

Soon, someone approached the bed.

Gu Yuanbai stared and held his breath, and a moment later, his ears were hot, and someone whispered hot breath in his ear, "Your Holiness?"

It's Xue Yuan.

It's so late and he's so sneaky, he's definitely not doing anything honorable.

Gu Yuanbai did not move, Xue Yuan shouted in his ear for a while, this voice is getting lower and lower, but also closer and closer, and finally even the lips touched the ear bead, and then whoosh, the ear bead will diffuse up a body such as electric numbness.

Gu Yuanbai's five fingers couldn't help but curl up for a moment, and for fear of spooking a snake, he forced himself to stay still.

Xue Yuan seemed to be able to tell that Gu Yuanbai hadn't slept, but he didn't, and he laughed a few times in a low voice, his laughter trembling so much that his ears roiled with heat. Gu Yuanbai thought to herself, what is he laughing at?

Is it hard to laugh at me?

Just before the displeasure in his heart welled up, Xue Yuan gently bit the earlobe, not daring to exert himself because of the delicate skin, he finally reluctantly sucked hard a few times, and when he let go, the ear bead was already congested and swollen, as if it was about to break out of the blood.

"Your Holiness," Xue Yuan smiled in a four-pronged manner, then asked in a teasing manner, "What do you think?"

Gu Yuanbai did his best to keep breathing, and under the darkness, his long, stretched breath came together, and he was certain that Xue Yuan did not know that he was awake. It was just an earlobe, just the extent of an earlobe, why would Gu Yuanbai even tense his legs?

Expectant and huffy, His Majesty almost doubted himself.

But as soon as Xue Yuan's words were asked, Gu Yuanbai couldn't help but reply in his mind, Comfortable, comfortable.

Go on?

Xue Yuan seemed to have heard Gu Yuanbai's heart as he kissed Gu Yuanbai's ear bead again, his voice so low that a butterfly waved its wings, "When I sat on the swing, during the evening meal, His Holiness always teased me over and over again."

Gu Yuanbai laughed coldly and said, "The colorful and bold Xue Yuan, when are you talking about?

He thought about it and snapped to attention, oh yes. During the evening meal, he had broken out in a fine sweat with his meal, and since his long hair was too much of a bother, he hooked the hair at his temples behind his ears before he chucked a slice of beef out of the pot.

At that time, Xue Yuan seemed to be choking, could it be that he was choking just because he hooked his hair?

Breathe.

Gu Yuanbai all wanted to let out a scoff, but before the laughter could come out, he held back. Because he remembered the hot springs on Xue Yuan's long journey back to the capital, and the taste of Xue Yuan's fine kisses on his face and neck, his body relaxed and felt that it would be good if he pretended to be unaware of being served and enjoying himself for a while.

Is this whoring?

Doesn't count.

But even if it is calculated, he Gu Yuanbai whored himself out, and in the middle of the night, Xue Yuan was a sneaky thief, who would know?

Gu Yuanbai was half-hearted.

Just as he thought this, Xue Yuan leaned over and sucked out a mark behind Gu Yuanbai's ear. His force wasn't heavy or light, but it was very nerve-wracking and flooded with an itch that couldn't be scratched. As for his hands - Xue Yuan's hands were placed next to the bed in a disciplined manner, except for the lips that were constantly kissing Gu Yuanbai's ears, he seemed to be a decent gentleman whose upbringing was in his bones, even when he came to someone else's bed, he didn't touch it in the slightest.

Gu Yuanbai thought that he only dared to hang around his ears, so he stopped repressing it, and his five bony fingers clutched the bed sheets, pouring all the tingling and itching out onto the mattress.

The gasps beside his ears gradually intensified, and Xue Yuan's hand suddenly reached out to grip Gu Yuanbai's hand, thrusting forcefully through his five fingers. Gu Yuanbai thought he saw something, and was suddenly startled, his eyelids jumping violently.

Who ever thought that Xue Yuan just gasping gradually accelerated, I do not know how long, he suddenly clenched Gu Yuanbai fingers muffled grunt. A few moments, Xue Yuan's breathing gradually calm, strong fingers loose, bedding was tucked in front of his body, Gu Yuanbai heart, intermission?

Only to hear another tiny rattle from the window, the room's movement was completely quiet, Xue Yuan was gone.

Gu Yuanbai's fingers still retained the sour feeling of being forcefully penetrated by even thicker fingers, the expression on his face changed and changed, he abruptly opened his eyes and looked at the window gritting his teeth, "Xue Jiuyao--"

Where the fuck, where's that fucking kung fu you learned?

You come in here in the middle of the night, climb in the window, and then you play innocent?
