Reborn: I Found The Wrong Brother

Zhong Yansheng was a bit of a spoiled child. When he was in the Marquis' Mansion, he complained that the medicine was too bitter, so Yun Cheng had to pick out his favorite candied fruits and give him one after every sip. He would drag his feet and act like a spoiled child for a long time before finishing the medicine.

The first night he arrived at Prince Ding's Mansion, he ate something bad and vomited. Later, Xiao Nong brought him medicine, and he was willing to drink it obediently. It was just because he had just been arrested and taken to Prince Ding's Mansion and was in an unfamiliar environment. He was still afraid of Xiao Nong and felt hesitant and uneasy in his heart.

Seeing that Xiao Nong really dared to drink the medicine on the table and drank such a bitter medicine in one gulp, Zhong Yansheng felt that his severe punishment had failed, and his back suddenly became less straight while he was sitting on the bed.

Xiao Nong put down the medicine bowl, facing the light, his deep blue eyes were like a deep lake: "How is it, can I talk to you now?"

Zhong Yansheng choked for a while, then reluctantly moved a little to the side, pursed his lips and said nothing.

Xiao Nong raised the corner of his mouth, walked over to sit beside him, tilted his head and stared at the boy's beautiful profile for a while: "Why are you still ignoring me?"

Zhong Yansheng sat on the bed hugging his knees, covered with a thin blanket, and said unhappily: "I'm still angry."

"Didn't I have to drink the medicine as punishment?" Xiao Nong smacked his lips. He didn't know how much coptis root was added to the medicine for this kid. It was so bitter that it reached the root of his tongue.

Zhong Yansheng thought about it, and it seemed to make sense. Otherwise, he would be breaking his word. Hesitating for a moment, he pointed at the window and asked, "What did you use to pry it open? Why was it so fast?"

Is this the point?

Xiao Nong was choked by the direction Zhong Yansheng pointed out. Seeing that he was really confused, he smiled, took out the dagger from his waist and put it in Zhong Yansheng's hand.

This dagger is quite heavy. It is forged from Persian patterned steel and is shaped like a crescent moon. The scabbard is made of silver and is engraved with delicate orchid patterns. There is also a sapphire embedded in the handle, which is small and exquisite.

It is a mixture of foreign and Central Plains styles. It was probably stolen from the armory of some tribal noble.

For Xiao Nong, this dagger was a little small and not very convenient to use, but when he saw the engraved pattern on the scabbard in the armory of the palace, he took it out on an impulse.

It was the first time that Zhong Yansheng came into contact with such a cold and sharp weapon. He weighed it for a while before pulling out the dagger curiously.

With a slight sound, the sharp blade was revealed, and in the dim light, it also reflected a ray of cold light, which was far more dangerous than it looked.

No wonder Xiao Nong pried open his window so quickly, but it took him so long.

Although it is a weapon for killing people, this dagger is forged very beautifully, and there are also fine lines on the blade, which is really magnificent.

Zhong Yansheng liked beautiful things and couldn't help but turn it over and over to look at it for a while.

"Like it?"

A familiar voice came from above his head. Zhong Yansheng blinked and looked at the valuable item. He felt very short of money: "It's okay..."

He couldn't afford it with the little money in his small treasury.

"I'll give it to you."

After the bath, the beauty was filled with a warm and fragrant orchid fragrance. Xiao Nong squinted his eyes in enjoyment, feeling that the irritability and depression in his heart had been dissipated a lot. He raised his hand to grab Zhong Yansheng's thin wrist, and pressed the scabbard with his other hand. With a little force, Zhong Yansheng was led by him, and the dagger was returned to the sheath: "The premise is not to cut yourself, it's very sharp."

Zhong Yansheng didn't even care about his wrist being caught, his eyes lit up, and he asked, "Are you really giving it to me?"

Xiao Nong raised his eyebrows slightly: "Don't want it?"

Zhong Yansheng was reluctant to return it to him. After hesitating for a while, he silently held the dagger in his arms.

Xiao Nong smiled and said, "You accepted my things, but you still ignore me?"

Well, it is true that people will be lenient when taking things from others.

Zhong Yansheng thought for a while and said seriously: "But you have to tell me why you are angry."

When he was a child, his mother taught him that when he had conflicts with others, he should communicate more. She and Huai'an Marquis never hide anything from each other, so their relationship has remained the same for many years.

“…”

Although he had already beaten Lou Qingtang, Xiao Nong still didn't want to mention it again.

If Lou Qingtang had not misled him with solemn assurance at that time, he would not have misunderstood for a long time that Zhong Yansheng was deeply in love with him and thought about all that mess.

I get angry just thinking about it.

The person Zhong Yansheng was looking for at first was not him, nor was he the brother he called.

Even the gifts he gave were given because he had mistakenly recognized the wrong person. Although it was unintentional, it was simply trampling on his pride.

If it were someone else, it would have been hung on the wall to dry.

But he had been angry for a few days and the child was still unaware of it.

Xiao Nong felt a little amused and a little angry. He didn't want to talk about it anymore, so he avoided the topic. He raised his hand and pinched his face without changing his expression, saying unhappily, "You've lost weight."

He managed to gain some weight with great difficulty, but was taken aback by the royal family and lost weight after being raised for a month.

Zhong Yansheng frowned, and as he pinched his face, he spoke incoherently, not very happy: "You are all fooling me."

When Xiao Nong was with Zhong Yansheng, he was always in a relaxed mood. He leaned lazily against the bed and heard his muttering: "Who fooled you?"

"Everyone." Zhong Yansheng became more and more unhappy the more he thought about it. He turned his face away and didn't let him pinch him. "Your Majesty, Daddy, Eunuch Tian Xi, and you."

It seemed like they all thought he was a child, or that he was too stupid, and refused to tell him anything.

Xiao Nong pinched his chin and turned back. His deep blue eyes reflected the candlelight, like the sea at night. His voice lowered, revealing a bit of gentleness and tolerance: "I didn't fool you."

"You did." Zhong Yansheng's eyes were bright and clear, staring at him accusingly, ****

"Why don't you tell me why you are angry."

“…”

This is not a question of whether he is fooled or not. Xiao Nong continued to explain: "How did they fool you?"

"Eunuch Tian Xi said that as long as I have questions, he will tell me everything he knows." Zhong Yansheng saw that he always avoided the topic and knew that he really didn't want to talk about it, so he had to stop asking. "But no matter what I asked him, he didn't answer."

"What did you ask him?"

There are not many questions that can stump old man Tian Xi, most of which are royal secrets and secrets of the old emperor.

Zhong Yansheng thought about the questions he had deliberately asked Tian Xi, and after a moment of vagueness, he picked out the one that was not so lethal and was before the expedition: "I asked Eunuch Tian Xi why you had to lead troops to the battlefield at the age of sixteen, and he did not answer me."

Hearing this, Xiao Nong loosened the hand that was restraining his jaw, casually placed his fingers on the back of Zhong Yansheng's neck, gently rubbed the birthmark, and twitched the corner of his mouth: "Of course he dare not answer."

Zhong Yansheng was shaken by his teasing, but he was more curious about the reason than Xiao Nong's teasing: "Why?"

Xiao Nong lowered his eyes and looked at him for a moment: "When I was sixteen, the war in Mobei broke out again."

At that time, seven years had passed since the great rebellion that occurred when Xiao Nong was nine years old.

The barbarians began to be dissatisfied with the ten cities they had captured previously, and launched another surprise attack, hoping to reach the capital in one fell swoop. The veteran general guarding the city was beheaded, and his head was sent to the capital as a demonstration and provocation, causing an uproar in the court.

The situation was extremely urgent, but the Xiao family, once the most powerful weapon in the royal family, had died with only two children left. There was no one available in the court, the newcomers were unable to take on the burden, and the veterans were all very old. After three generals were successively killed in Mobei, no one was willing to stand up, and no one dared to stand up.

Everyone has a consensus: whoever goes will die.

This is a one-way road.

Finally, it was Xiao Nong, who was not even twenty years old, who stood up.

The old emperor generously handed over the military power to Xiao Nong and personally escorted him out of the city. He watched with a smile as Xiao Nong led only 50,000 reinforcements to Mobei.

Xiao Nong took the initiative and was forced to stand up by the royal family.

Even though he was living under the old emperor's nose, and even though he blocked the poison for Xiao Wenlan, the old emperor still didn't want him to live, so he found the most suitable opportunity and pushed him to Mobei.

No one thought Xiao Nong could come back alive.

Xiao Nong said calmly: "But this king survived."

Xiao Nong incorporated the old subordinates of King Ding and spent nearly four years successfully expelling the barbarians and recovering ten cities. Unfortunately, after riding all over the northern desert, he could not find the remains of his relatives, so he could only use the blood of his enemies for sacrifice.

He won every battle in Mobei, and not only won, but also won beautifully.

Like their ancestors, the Xiao family seemed to be born invincible.

As the good news reached the capital, it was too late for the old emperor to take back his military power. Xiao Nong was no longer the child who was isolated and helpless in the palace and was forced to swallow poison.

Xiao Nong didn't say it in too much detail, just a few words and understated it, but Zhong Yansheng could easily guess the thrilling nature of it.

He only listened for a while before his anger towards Xiao Nong almost dissipated. Thinking of the general in the book "Record of Golden Wind and Jade Dew" that Xiao Nong had forced him to read before, he thought to himself, my brother is much more powerful than the general in this book.

That's why Xiao Nong had to lead troops to the battlefield at the age of sixteen. It was also a shameful thing for the royal family. No wonder Tian Xi was reluctant to say it.

Zhong Yansheng couldn't help but rub against Xiao Nong. He looked very well-behaved and forgave him generously: "Brother, I'm not angry anymore."

Are you willing to call me brother now?

Xiao Nong raised his eyebrows. He never told anyone about these past events, not even his blood relative Xiao Wenlan.

After all, these trivial matters can just be chewed over and swallowed by oneself. When he was young, he was too weak and incompetent to talk about them. Anyway, he will not endure those upsets now, so it would be hypocritical for him to tell others about these things.

I didn't expect that talking about these trivial things could have this effect.

For the first time in his life, Xiao Nong discovered that showing weakness was useful, and he seemed to have realized something.

Zhong Yansheng's anger subsided, and he quietly nudged to Xiao Nong. Just as he was about to speak, the boat suddenly shook violently, and the candle on the table fell down and went out with a click. He was also thrown by the force and crashed into Xiao Nong's arms, and subconsciously cried out.

There were many shouts from outside. Zhong Yansheng realized that it had been raining heavily outside. There were crackling sounds and strong winds and waves. Huo Shuang, who was patrolling outside, knocked on the door and asked, "Your Highness, the boat was shaking just now. When I came over, I seemed to hear a sound in the house. Did you get hit?"

It's this haunting thing again.

Xiao Nong put one arm around Zhong Yansheng's waist, pressed him into his arms, and raised his hand to cover his mouth. The little beauty had a small face, so his hand could cover half of his face, leaving only a pair of wide-open eyes, looking at him in confusion in the dim cabin.

The warm breath sprayed on the palm of his hand. Zhong Yansheng seemed to want to speak. His soft lips moved and rubbed across the palm of his hand. A sudden itch rushed to his heart.

Huo Shuang outside did not get a response, so he knocked on the door again in confusion: "Your Highness? Have you gone to bed? I just saw a candlelight in your room."

Zhong Yansheng lay in Xiao Nong's arms, fearing that Huo Shuang would break in if he didn't get a response and see him and Xiao Nong huddled together in their disheveled clothes.

He struggled for a bit, but the hand around his waist tightened even more. Zhong Yansheng had difficulty breathing and turned his head in discomfort, so Xiao Nong let go of his hand.

Zhong Yansheng didn't dare to speak too loudly, so he asked quietly, "Are you seasick again?"

Unexpectedly, his first question was this. Xiao Nong was stunned for a moment, then chuckled softly: "Well, it's more comfortable to have you in my arms."

"Oh." Zhong Yansheng understood why he was hugging him. He nodded and stopped moving. He stared at the vague figure at the door. "Then don't cover my mouth. I won't scream, but I will answer him."

"No."

In the dim light, Xiao Nong placed his other hand on the back of his neck, a possessive gesture that imprisoned him in his arms. He lowered his head and approached Zhong Yansheng, narrowing his eyes: "That thing is looking at you with impure eyes, can't you see it?"

Zhong Yansheng was stunned for three seconds before he realized that Xiao Nong was talking about Huo Shuang. He was speechless: "No way."

"Yes."

Their hair rubbed against each other, and Xiao Nong moved closer to him. His blue eyes were as deep as the bottom of the sea, and his tall nose almost touched Zhong Yansheng's nose: "Stupid."

He's so slow that he can't even tell.

But it's best not to see it.

And then he called him stupid for no apparent reason.

Zhong Yansheng was a little angry. He felt that he was not seasick but was just being unreasonable. He lowered his voice even more: "Xiao Xianwei, let me go. How old are you?"

Huo Shuang outside the house did not get a response for a long time. After a moment of silence, he drew his sword and said, "Your Highness, has something happened? To ensure your safety, I must come in and take a look. Sorry."

Zhong Yansheng's heart skipped a beat and he struggled again. His clothes rubbed against each other, making a rustling sound. Xiao Nong loosened his grip a little, but still didn't let him go. He hugged the thin and fragrant body in his arms and whispered in his ear, "Yuan Yuan, whose shoes are under the bed?"

Zhong Yansheng's mind went blank and he lowered his head. The slippers that he had kicked under the bed rolled out, probably because of the shaking just now, and rolled together with his own.

Zhong Yansheng's face turned red. He opened his mouth and argued weakly: "Those are my shoes..."

"Oh?"

Zhong Yansheng's feet were suddenly grabbed. He had just finished a shower and naturally had no socks on. He was also spoiled and lazy and didn't like to walk around, so the skin on his feet was particularly delicate. When he was grabbed by the big hands with calluses, he shuddered all over.

Xiao Nong's nose rubbed against his nose lightly, his eyes gradually revealing some of the wolf nature in his bones, but his tone was still very gentle, and he smiled and said: "Yours? Then I will measure it to see if it fits your foot, okay?"

Zhong Yansheng was pulled by him and sat on his thighs. He almost fell into his arms and choked: "No."

"Little thief." Xiao Nong asked knowingly, "What were you doing in my room last night?"

Zhan Rong's voice suddenly came from outside the house: "Huo Shuang, how dare you break into the young prince's house? You are so bold."

Huo Shuang said coldly: "It is my duty to protect the little prince. If you are not protecting your prince Ding, what are you doing here? Could it be that your prince is in our little prince's room?"

Zhong Yansheng shuddered all over, his eyelashes fluttering with guilt. Xiao Nong moved closer, and in the darkness, he completely locked the fragrant orchid fragrance into his range: "Hmm? Why don't you say anything? What are you doing in my room? Do you have any bad intentions towards me?"

If it were in the past, Zhong Yansheng would have been bullied to the point of being speechless, but his temper is not so soft now. He thought of a clever idea in a hurry, and remembered the question that had choked Xiao Wenlan and made him speechless before, and tried to maintain a calm tone: "W-What do you mean by having ill intentions? I don't understand."

"Don’t understand?"

The boat was still shaking, and following the amplitude of the shaking, Xiao Nong exerted a little force and pressed the person in his arms to the middle of the soft bed: "Shall I teach you?"

Zhong Yansheng was trapped under him, with no way to escape. The atmosphere in the room was so thick that it seemed like water could be squeezed out of it, and his heart beat so fast that it was about to jump out: "What... um."

The lips were suddenly blocked.

Zhong Yansheng's mind was completely blank, and the force of his push and rejection also weakened. Xiao Nong was invincible on the battlefield and always knew how to seize the opportunity. At this moment, he also seized the opportunity and pried open his already weakly defended teeth when he opened his mouth. He then followed up with a dense kiss, entangled with the dodging tip of his tongue.

The bitter taste of the medicine still lingered at the root of his tongue, and Zhong Yansheng was forced to taste that bitter taste. After scratching himself a few times with his fingers, he was pushed onto the bed, his hot breath trembling and blending, his soft lips were pressed bright red, and he felt light as if in a dream, but the feeling of his lips and tongue aching from the fierce plundering of his lips was extremely clear.

Xiao Nong was kissing him...why was he kissing him?

Huo Shuang and Zhan Rong were still arguing outside, and in between they were interrupted by the sound of Yun Cheng, who had been woken up by the quarrel and was running over to add fuel to the fire.

Zhan Rong snorted coldly, "Our prince... How could our prince go to your little prince's room? A thief broke into the prince's cabin last night. We are investigating the matter and have traced it here. Could it be your people who did it?"

Huo Shuang is usually taciturn, but he is often provoked and offended by Zhan Rong. He gets angry when he sees him, especially after hearing these remarks, he is even more unbelievable. He angrily said: "With the means of Your Highness Prince Ding, if there was a thief in the house, how could he let anyone leave alive? Even if the bones are broken, it would be better to find out the mastermind behind the scenes. How can you trace it to us?! It's really slanderous!"

His words were clearly heard in the room. Zhong Yansheng could hardly breathe. Tears filled his eyes and his eyelids turned slightly red. His mouth felt sore, but he was afraid of biting Xiao Nong so he didn't dare to close his mouth. When he heard these words, he couldn't help but close his teeth and bit the tip of Xiao Nong's tongue.

Xiao Nong groaned, slightly parted his lips, and said in a hoarse voice: "Yuan Yuan, bite me?"

Zhong Yansheng's breathing was very disordered and short: "You...you bit me first."

"Unfair." Xiao Nong said with a smile, "I was clearly kissing you."

…

Why can he speak so confidently!

If there hadn't been a bunch of people arguing outside the thin door, Zhong Yansheng would have wanted to cover his face and scream. His face was completely red, and he couldn't speak: "You, you..."

"Do you know why you can't stay in the same room with me?"

Xiao Nong raised his chin, with the corners of his mouth curved. When Yansheng lowered his voice, it was so tender that it sounded like he was saying love words: ****"Brother is a bad guy."

Even though his eyes were wet from being bullied, Zhong Yansheng still subconsciously replied after hearing this: "No..."

Before he could finish his words, his lips were sucked again. This time, Xiao Nong went even further than before. He licked inside fiercely, sucking on them so hard that Zhong Yansheng felt both pain and numbness.

He really wanted to cry, but just as he was about to push him away, he tasted a faint smell of blood in addition to the bitter taste of medicine.

Did he bite the tip of Xiao's tongue just now?

Zhong Yansheng's heart trembled. Xiao Nong suffered a lot of injuries in the battle. So many injuries must be very painful. He didn't want Xiao Nong to be hurt.

He is a good boy.

Noticing Zhong Yansheng's hesitation, Xiao Nong roughly guessed the reason, and his heart suddenly felt numb. The boy's lips were as sweet as spring rain, making people want to plunder and devour him more excessively. His reason was like being burned on fire, leaving only the thought of having him all to himself.

Zhong Yansheng did not realize that his lightheartedness was more like indulgence. Instead of arousing sympathy, it aroused the evil desires in Xiao Nong's bones.

Until he vaguely realized that Xiao Nong's knee had squeezed between his legs, spread his legs apart, and rubbed against him hard.

It was a strange yet familiar feeling.

Zhong Yansheng's head buzzed, and his whole body went limp. He almost cried out. His teeth clenched, and he almost bit Xiao Nong's tongue again.

He couldn't close his mouth at all, Xiao Nong's knee was still playing tricks on him maliciously, and Zhong Yansheng felt like a fish on the chopping board, about to be cooked by Xiao Nong.

Zhong Yansheng always felt that the ridiculous incident between him and Xiao Nong on the pleasure boat was just because he was drugged.

Xiao Nong was a good brother and treated him very well. Rumor had it that His Royal Highness Prince Ding was not interested in women. He was almost twenty-six years old, and his backyard was empty, with no one in it.

So he also felt that Xiao Nong would not have any excessive thoughts towards him.

If Xiao Nong wanted to do anything to him, he should have been torn apart and eaten during the time he was in the palace, right?

After all, my brother doesn't look like a gentleman.

When Xiao Nong pushed him against the door yesterday, he didn't notice the beauty of it. Even when Xiao Nong pressed him on the bed and kissed him, he was dazed and passively dragged into it and became more addicted.

It was not until this moment that he clearly felt the strong desire of the person kissing him.

Zhong Yansheng panicked and realized that Xiao Nong was not trying to scare him, he was just as he said... a bad guy.

Xiao Nong's hand had already pressed on Zhong Yansheng's belt. With just a slight pull, Zhong Yansheng's robe would completely fall apart.

At this moment, the quarrel outside suddenly stopped. Huo Shuang was entangled by Zhan Rong for a while, and suddenly realized that something was wrong: "Are you dragging me? Your Highness!"

So troublesome.

Xiao Nong paused with his fingertips that were grabbing Zhong Yansheng's belt, a hint of murderous intent flashed across his eyes, and when he parted Zhong Yansheng's lips, he deliberately licked the corner of his lips, and then played with his hair, making Zhong Yansheng look like a bird with ruffled feathers, messy.

But he was very satisfied, and met those tearful eyes: "Do you hate me?"

Zhong Yansheng's lips felt hot, numb and painful. He opened his mouth, then pursed his lips in silence.

After a while, the head on the bed shook slightly, then seemed to realize something and nodded again.

Xiao laughed.

He was in no hurry to let Zhong Yansheng know what was going on. He sniffed the moist fragrance on his body and licked the corner of his lips contentedly: "Yuan Yuan, do you know what it means to have evil intentions now?"

This action was really rude. Zhong Yansheng had grown up listening to Mr. Zhou's lessons on gentlemanly etiquette and had been a well-behaved child. He had never done such a thing. His heart was pounding and his hands and feet felt numb.

Hearing Huo Shuang's footsteps approaching the door, he suddenly reacted and quickly pushed the person on his body: "You, you hurry up!"

Xiao Nong stood up slowly and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? You're making me look like an adulterer."

Zhong Yansheng's ears were red as blood dripped from his mouth. Hearing Huo Shuang's hand on the door, he kicked him anxiously: "Go!"

The force was light, and it didn't seem like a kick, but more like a show of coquettishness.

Xiao Nong felt an itch in his heart, and the moment before Huo Shuang pushed open the door, he couldn't help but lower his head again, pinched Zhong Yansheng's chin, and pecked his lips again as if the kiss was not enough. Then he turned over and quickly jumped out of the window.

The next moment, a group of people rushed into the cabin.
