The Rich and Powerful Chang An Chapter 60

Chapter 60 

Last night, between half-asleep and half-awake, Xiao QingYan seemed to hear the dripping sound of rain. Looking at the wet land around him, Xiao QingYan's heart, which had been hanging all these days, finally eased down.

“Your Highness, it rained last night?”

“Hnn, but it doesn't seem to be heavy. See if there's a leak in the tent. If there isn't then we don't have to worry to sleep in the wild later." Calculating the days, it would take at least half a month to get to Feng Province. After all, the first spring rain came these days when they left the capital. The weather would be getting warmer and warmer in the future, but the rain would be heavier and heavier each time. They should have to stay in the wild for several days. At that time, they really should not be soaked into the water.

Xu ChangAn naturally knew why, by looking at Xiao QingYan's good mood,. After checking the tent, he felt that there was no problem and asked the Wu brothers to put it away. Then he went to get something to eat.

After packing up their stuffs and having a simple breakfast, it was time for them to go on the road.

“Wangye, we'll be in Quan Province in a few days. I heard that there is hot mountain springs there. Would you like to see it then?” The Wu brothers only knew that their Wangye and Wangfei were going to Wangfei's maternal grandparents' house, but the brothers didn't know what their purpose was. They didn't look like they were in a hurry, so the brothers decided to try their best to cultivate Wangye's and Wangfei's feelings on the way.

Wu Yi himself went to see the hot mountain spring, and also wanted to take the opportunity to let Wangye and Wangfei enhance their feelings. After all, in his opinion, nothing could make people closer faster than being in skin to skin relationship.

Wu Yi did not like that troublemaker Nan Xi, and had a good impression of Xu ChangAn. They were the Imperial Bodyguards that Wangye appointed to Xu ChangAn, therefore they were supposed to be Xu ChangAn's people now. Of course they hoped that Xu ChangAn would be valued by Wangye.

Xiao QingYan agreed to Wu Yi's proposal immediately, because he thought so too. Now that Wu Yi put it forward, he no longer had to think about how to say it to Xu ChangAn.

“Wangye, we've been delaying a lot of time. Is it alright if we're late? They should have arrived, right." When they went out, a large number of people followed. Although, currently their light carriage was on its way, but those people did not return to Wang Residence. Rather, they went to Feng Province by the original planned road. They were so delayed that Xu ChangAn feared that they would have arrive early.

“You can rest assured that they will only be later than us, or even simply not going.”

“What?” Since they would not be going, then why…. Xu ChangAn was really confused; what did Xiao QingYan means? Was it the Emperor's arrangement? To mislead the public with prevarication and deliberate falsehoods? Xiao QingYan had been attacked by assassins of southern Xinjiang before. When he left the Capital this time, the Emperor was afraid that he would be attacked again, so he did this arrangement?

“Anyway, you don't have to worry about it. Just take this trip as a door trip.” Xiao QingYan didn't want to hide from Xu ChangAn, but these things could not be explained in two or three words. So he wanted to wait a little longer. Perhaps, he would not have to explain them at that time.

Nobody paid attention to Xiao QingYan group which had went and stopped here and there. In fact, the people, who had been attentive and paying close attention to the route of which Xian Wang Residence's carriage had took at the beginning, had been depressed and could not help but getting angry at other people!

“Didn't you say that Gu insect is surefire? Humph! Just after leaving the Capital City, they are as intimate as newly married couple. It doesn't look like he is in a rush at all. Where does it seem that he is anxious to return to the Capital? Nan Xi, are your previous guarantee is to dupe this prince?!” The group who followed the people from the beginning was very cautious, and then became more careless. There was no other reason, only because that party did not seem to be in a hurry to go on their journey; moving and stopping the entire day. Even when they encountered as trifle thing as chicken feather, they would delay the first half of the day! –“Impossible! This 'love' Gu insect is not a rare thing in our southern Xinjiang. I've seen its usefulness thousands of times and it's impossible to make mistakes at all! The only explanation… Maybe it's because Xiao QingYan is far away from the Capital, or from me that the female Gu in my body have a little influence on him." Nan Xi herself was shocked! Xiao QingYan promised to be back soon before he left. How could he deliberately delay this trip? Could it be… No, His Highness did not need to deceive her with this.

“Your Highness… Don't get angry first. Nan Xi can assure you that nothing will go wrong. Do you remember the assassin at Xian Wang Residence that day? I had doubts before, so I arranged for LuoYang to come. Xiao QingYan did not hesitate to replace me when I was held captive by the assassin. Although he was later replaced by his Wangfei, I carefully observed his face. At that time, there was no distress on his face but only rejoice! If he hadn't taken the medicine I gave him, without my Gu, how could he have attached so much importance to me?

"And when Wangfei came back, he didn't even go to comfort him. He stayed in my room anyway…. Your Highness, although he often comes to my room, but I have been using excuses to fob him off, and never let him close. Nan Xi will not let any man get close to me except you!"

“That's good. Go on.”

Looking at her sweetheart's face carefully and seeing that he was really not angry, Nan Xi continued reassuringly: “I was only frightened, yet he stayed in my room to take care of me. However, Wangfei was taken out of Wang Residence, yet he did not go to take a look. I couldn't believe it. So, I was very certain of him being in my grasp.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I personally watched him take the medicine that day. It was decided that there would be no mistake. After that, a series of abnormal behavior from him was enough to prove it."

“Fine, perhaps it's really as you had said.” Although there had been a rumor from outside saying that Xian Wang did not like Xian Wangfei, but it was not like the report at all, considering what Xiao QingYan did to his Wangfei after his marriage.

Cleaning up Xu family for his Wangfei and worrying about his body, even punishing Wangfei for Nan Xi's sake by only a light and insignificant house-arrest. From beginning to end, he had never done anything substantively harm to his Wangfei.

“Your Highness, you can rest assured that Xiao QingYan will never be your roadblock as long as you are hard-hearted the following days.” There was the 'love' female Gu in Nan Xi's body, so if Xiao QingYan hindered His Highness in the coming days, then… As long as she died, Xiao QingYan would neither live.

“Every man for himself, and the Devil take the hindmost. Besides, what brotherhood is there when you're born in the Imperial House?!”

“Your Highness, with your words, Nan Xi knows what to do.” Slowly, Nan Xi pulled her sweetheart's hand, although her heart was worried, she slowly leaned up, slowly tightened her hand. She wanted to be closer to him as possible.

Without being noticed, Xu ChangAn group soon arrived at Quan City, which Wu Yi had mentioned. After finding an inn for rest, the younger server also recommended the most famous hot spring villa in the city. It was still cold at this time, so it was natural to soak in a hot spring.

“Is that hot spring the hot mountain spring Wu Yi mentioned?”

“Yes, Gongzi. The spring water of that Yunshen Villa is directly drawn from the mountains, not the hot water in the bathhouse, but the real spring water. I heard that it is also good for people's health.” The young server did not say that only dignitaries and wealthy people were welcome there because he saw they were dressed so well. Anyway, at the first glance, they were the kind of masters who would be willing to part with money, so he did not have to talk too much.

Xiao QingYan wanted to stay here for a few days not only because of the hot spring in this Quan City, but also because he thought that in a few days it would be the 15th. When it was the 15th in these two consecutive months, ChangAn's body would have abnormalities. If ChangAn's body flared up on their way, he would have a hard time to endure it. They had better wait for that day to pass.

Because they would be staying for a few days, Xiao QingYan was not in a hurry to go to the villa which was recommended by that young server, and only had dinner prepared for them.

In the evening, Xiao QingYan asked people to prepare hot water for them. Xu ChangAn took off his clothes and soaked in the hot water. Since he went out, he could not take a bath every day, so as long as he came to the town where they rested, Xu ChangAn would take a good bath.

"Your highness! You… Wait a minute. I'll be ready in a minute." Xu ChangAn just soaked in the bathtub for a short time, the hot water soaked his body everywhere. He was feeling very comfortable. He wanted to soak more, but he saw Xiao QingYan took off his clothes in front of him.

“Did you just ask this Wang to wait?”

“En, I'll be ready in a minute!”

“Are you making this Wang use your bathing water?”

“…” Didn't he say not to reveal their identities for the following days? Why would he used Wangye's status to coy with him now? Xu ChangAn knew what Xiao QingYan meant, but he still could not help wanting to scold him in his heart. It was not that he could not accept being so intimate with Xiao QingYan, rather, he was not used to it at all!

Looking at his Wangfei burying his head directly and not talking, Xiao QingYan restrained his laughter and took off his clothes in twos and threes and stepped directly into the bathtub.

Before, Xu ChangAn was still happy; he thought the bathtub was big and comfortable. Now that Xiao QingYan came in, he knew why the bathtub was so big. It must had been Xiao QingYan's deliberate instructions.

“ChangAn, I feel dirty on my body. You give me a nice wash up.” Xiao QingYan spoke and immediately turned with his back to Xu ChangAn.

Xiao QingYan turned around and only after he saw the back figure that Xu ChangAn distinctively let loose a sigh of relief and began to rub Xiao QingYan's body in front of him.

After Xu ChangAn began to wash him, Xiao QingYan never spoke, and Xu ChangAn was not so nervous. Touching the firm body under his hands, Xu ChangAn was envious of his strong body. In fact, Xiao QingYan was not older than him, but his whole person looked much more stable than himself.

“That's enough, I think it's done. Now let me help you. Turn your back." Xu ChangAn was envious of this man's body, but the man suddenly turned around and made himself turned around. Forced to cooperate with Xiao QingYan's movements, Xu ChangAn's body was not as rigid as he imagined. He thought maybe he was slowly getting used to it.

Xiao QingYan reached out and pulled Xu ChangAn's scattered black hair to one side of his chest, exposing his entire back. Looking at the somewhat thin but unusually white back in front of him, Xiao QingYan obviously softened his strength was. Feeling Xiao QingYan's strength, Xu ChangAn was a little uncomfortable; what rubbing, Xiao QingYan was obviously caressing ah!

“Your Highness, you… Enough, don't wash anymore.”

“ChangAn… We will rest here for the next few days.” Along the way, Xiao QingYan passed his hands under his Wangfei's arms and leaned forward to hold the whole person in his arms.

“Your Highness?” Xu ChangAn had not yet responded to what Xiao QingYan meant by that remark, he then felt that he was being kissed by Xiao QingYan in between his neck while hands had touched his abdomen, and there was a tendency to continue down…

“ChangAn, you don't have to get up early to catch the on road tomorrow…” Xiao QingYan directly fished up the person in between his words, then turned him around, and made him sat on his legs. He did not wait for Xu ChangAn to answer before he kissed him.

At this time, how could Xu ChangAn not known what Xiao QingYan wanted to do. Anyway, the next thing could not be avoided. He did not want to continue to falsely refuse, so he began to cater to Xiao QingYan on his own initiative.
