CH 9

“Zhang Erque, go to your own place and stay!” Su Moxiu glared at Zhang Erque, his cold eyes also swept over the others, “Yan Jingze is my person, against him is like against me.”

Su Moxiu is a scholar.

He usually treats people gently, giving others the feeling of spring breeze, but at this moment…his face is cold with a domineering aura that others cannot oppose that came from deep within his bones.

Even if Zhang Erque lacks a brain, he can only close his mouth and sit back on the bed he made himself.

As for others…they were so shocked that they no longer dare to have any contempt for Yan Jingze.

Little General Su likes this man, he obviously likes him very very much. They will be fine as long as their brain is still good and doesn’t offend him.

Su Moxiu shocked those people, then looked back at Yan Jingze again.

He was too fierce just now, he doesn’t know if it will scare Yan Jingze…Su Moxiu showed a shy smile.

What a lovely little beauty! Yan Jingze said: “AXiu, you just said I was yours…”

“I like men too. I will protect you well and raise you!” Su Moxiu promised without hesitation.

“Um. You are so nice.” Yan Jingze smiled.

Su Moxiu was a little excited: “I bought a house two years ago. At that time, I will hire a few more servants for you…Don’t worry, I will be nice to you.”

Su Moxiu almost patted his chest to promise.

Yan Jingze said: “I believe you.”

No matter what he’s like, his family AXiu will like him and never betray him, he knows that.

The atmosphere between the two was too good.

Zhang Erque stretched his head out to look around. After looking, he turned to Cai An, looking tangled: “Old Cai, why did my teeth feel a little sour?”

Cai An answer: “My eyes also feel a little uncomfortable.”

Second young master is so sticky in front of them, who doesn’t have a wife, it’s like he used a knife to stab their hearts!

In addition……Second young master is so devoted to the other too fast, isn’t he afraid that the other person will stab his heart?

If Cai An’s child is alive, he will also be about the same as Su Moxiu. He is really afraid that Su Moxiu would suffer.

But with Su Moxiu protecting Yan Jingze, he can’t do anything.

At this moment, Yan Jingze was also depressed that he couldn’t do anything — there were others around and he was also not well, it’s inconvenient to even kiss at the moment.

Nevermind this, even Xiao Hua, who was dominating the horse feed on the manger, got close to a mare and rubbed its ear with the other.

It’s a bit unpleasant to look at…

Yan Jingze is in bad health. After talking with Su Moxiu for a while, he drank another bowl of Cai An’s medicine, then fell asleep.

After he fell asleep, Su Moxiu went to ask Cai An about his condition.

Cai An answered: “Second young master, his fever has subsided. He is still young and has a good foundation, he will be alright.”

“We’ll go back the day after tomorrow…Will he be okay for the quick journey?” Su Moxiu asked again.

Cai An reply: “It should be fine if he goes slowly.” Although Yan Jingze was injured, since he could ride alone before, now that his injuries are better, he should be fine going with them.

Su Moxiu said: “That’s good……then I will take him with me to make him as comfortable as possible.”

Cai An: “…” Second young master, that Yan Jingze’s face was tender but he was taller than you. He is five big and three thick1, how were you still able to continue to hug him?

Su Moxiu didn’t know Cai An’s thoughts. He imagined the scene of him riding the horse while hugging Yan Jingze so much so that he was somewhat looking forward to it.

But he didn’t think too much — he has other things to do tomorrow so he has to get up early.

Su Moxiu talked to Cai An for a while before going to bed early. Before going to bed, he also drank some more water.

It was still pitch black the next day when he was woken up by the need to urinate, so he lightly got up.

He also intends to go hunting.

After Su Moxiu got up, he woke Zhang Erque up, making Zhang Erque go with him.

He was afraid that Zhang Erque would talk nonsense in front of Yan Jingze. That being the case, it would be best to take this person away.

The two of them went out with more or less movement. The people who were still sleeping also got up one after another, even Yan Jingze. Because he slept too much the day before, he woke up earlier.

But he still lay in bed, not moving a bit.

He is much better today so he was a little hungry, but there’s nothing to eat now so he just continues to lie down.

“Da Yang, you take Huzi and ADan to go pick up some firewood.”

“Jiu Jiu, you take some people out to see if you can get some grass to feed the horse back.”

“Old third, you go get some snow to fill up the water tank in the house.”

…

Cai An arranged some work for those who stayed.

After these people all left, Cai An walked to Yan Jingze’s side.

This man wanted to take advantage of Su Moxiu going out to persuade him? Yan Jingze narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Cai An.

Cai An stood in front of Yan Jingze: “Yan Jingze, I want to talk to you.”

“You talk.” Yan Jingze sat up and slowly wrapped himself in sheepskin.

Seeing Yan Jingze like this, Cai An once again felt that Yan Jingze was a little familiar.

But he didn’t think much about it, he just said what he thought about for a long time since last night: “Yan Jingze, our second young master is General Su’s son, you understand, right?”

“Mm.” Yan Jingze responded.

Cai An added: “Not only that, second young master has been intelligent since childhood. With outstanding knowledge and only 22 this year, he already has a reputation for himself, his future is boundless. General Su had high hopes for him.”

“Oh.” Yan Jingze responded again.

Yan Jingze looked careless, but Cai An looked at him seriously: “do you understand what I mean?”

Of course, Yan Jingze knew what Cai An meant. He smiled: “You want to tell me that AXiu is very great, so you’re telling me to hold onto him tightly?”

Cai An: “…” Why is this guy so stupid!

That’s not right! Cai An looked at Yan Jingze and put one and one together, he suddenly realized that Yan Jingze was saying this on purpose.

He was a little annoyed, whispering: “Yan Jingze, what is second young master’s identity? What is your identity? It won’t end well if you follow second young master! Don’t say anything else, General Su will definitely not allow you to stay by second young master’s side, even if he lets you stay…Second young master will take the imperial examination in the future, marry a legitimate wife, and have children, then what about you? What will be left when you age and wane?”

“AXiu will only have me alone. He won’t marry or have children.” Yan Jingze is very sure. He looked at Cai An again —— this person in front of him…he seemed to remember something.

“Do you really believe in those coaxing words? There are too many men in this world who like the new and despise the old! I’m not lying to you either…Wait until we reach Qiongnan City, I will give you 50 silver taels, you should leave, okay!” Although Cai An did not like Yan Jingze, he still had sympathy for Yan Jingze, a compatriot who was hurt by the Rong people. He was also afraid that Su Moxiu would find out later and settle accounts with him so he didn’t say too much. He only told Yan Jingze to leave, using feelings and reasons then 50 silver taels for Yan Jingze to leave by himself.

Yan Jingze didn’t say anything, only kept looking at Cai An.

Cai An added: “Our second young master is a good person. If you decide to leave by yourself, he won’t force you to stay. You take the silver and go buy a house and a few acres of land, you will have a good life then. But if you keep sticking to second young master…After going back, I will tell our general everything one by one. What will happen to you then, I’m also not sure!”

Cai An thinks, with how much importance second young master attached to Yan Jingze, maybe he really won’t marry in the short term for Yan Jingze.

But there’s no way their general would just look on helplessly as the child he cares about indulge in a man and cut off his offspring!

At that time, if the father and son start to fight…they are sure to suffer.

Even if they don’t suffer…he also didn’t want Su Moxiu’s great life to meet a fork in the road.

“Our general Su kills people like scything flax. If you are unable to differentiate good from bad, heh……” Cai An threatened Yan Jingze with a cold face.

Yan Jingze said: “Does Su Xingyin know you’re talking about him behind his back?”

Cai An was stunned. How dare this person call general Su by his name?

Furthermore……Just with a blink of an eye, he felt that the person in front of him was a little different.

Previously, this person looked lazy, but now, he looked serious with sharp eyes. His aura has completely changed!

Cai An even had the urge to bow down.

Yan Jingze added: “I remember you. When I went to inspect the camp with Su Xingyin, you suddenly burst out and hugged my leg…”

He finally dug out the memory of this Cai An from the original owner’s memory.

This Cai An is originally an accountant under the original owner. That day, he suddenly rushed out and hugged the original owner’s thigh to thank him —— this man’s family died at the hands of bandits and the original owner had just eliminated the bandits at that time.

After thanking the original owner, the man lodged a complaint to the original owner that someone in the military made false accounts to enrich their own pockets.

The original owner took someone to check the ledger and found it to be so. He dealt with those groups of people, and at the same time, he also discovered that this person, who sued and clung to his leg, was very talented and good at accounting.

The original owner came to the border from the capital, he has many people with no shortage of accountants and the like but Su Xingyin didn’t have many useful people around him and with the ledger very messy, the original owner asked this person to follow Su Xingyin.

It’s been 10 years since then. The original owner doesn’t remember much and this man’s appearance has changed so he didn’t recognize him before.

Yan Jingze’s eyes narrowed slightly, glancing at Cai An: “I haven’t seen you for many years, you seem to be having a good time.”

Cai An stared blankly at Yan Jingze.

The person in front of him didn’t have a full beard but his outline is very familiar to him.

No wonder he thought this person was familiar before!

This…this…

Cai An, who had been standing and looking down at Yan Jingze, fell to his knees: “General Zhou…”

Cai An immediately called out and cried.

Yan Jingze said: “…Get up.”

“General, it’s great that you didn’t die. I thought you were dead…woo…” Cai An cried more and more loudly.

In fact, when they came to Qiongnan City a month ago, they felt that Zhou Jingshan was probably dead. Then they entered Mount Qiong and checked carefully, they’re even more certain since everything bodes ill with no positive signs2 for Zhou Jingshan.

It’s because of this that he never thought that Yan Jingze would be Zhou Jingshan.

He naturally didn’t think so mainly because…he could never have imagined that General Zhou would actually allow their second young master to rob him…

Cai An cried with snort and tears, also intending to hug Yan Jingze’s leg.

Yan Jingze saw the situation and quickly retracted his feet: “Don’t cry!”
