Reborn: I Found The Wrong Brother

Chapter 53 - Zhong Yansheng: If Mr. Zhou knew this, he would be beaten to death!



Because he had been kissed so hard just now, his voice was still hoarse and soft, as if he had just been woken up.

There was no light in the room. The gauze curtains at the head of the bed were hung down. The light from the lamps held by the guards flickered. Only the figure of Zhong Yansheng wrapped in a quilt could be seen vaguely. No one could see the blush on the little prince's face.

Huo Shuang, who rushed in, paused for a moment and subconsciously turned to look at Zhan Rong, who was leaning against the door with his hands folded and a grim look on his face.

Could it be that he was overthinking it, and Zhan Rong was really tracking down the person who sneaked into Prince Ding's cabin, and was not deliberately angering and delaying him?

Zhong Yansheng hummed: "Huo Shuang?"

Even though the room was dark and there was a veil between them, Huo Shuang did not dare to look any further. He lowered his head and knelt with his men, saying, "There was some commotion on the ship just now. I knocked on the door but got no response. I was worried about your safety and rushed in without warning. I hope your Highness will punish me."

"It's okay." Zhong Yansheng paused and said slowly, "I took the medicine and fell into a deep sleep. I didn't hear your voice."

This lie is a little hard to tell.

After all, when he opened his mouth, there was still a bitter and cold breath lingering around his body, and the feeling of his lips being rolled hard still remained, with a tingling sensation that ran along his tailbone to the back of his head, and his heartbeat could not calm down.

His belt had been pulled loose and was almost falling apart, his hair was ruffled, and his whole body was in a mess because of Xiao Nong's manipulation.

And just now when Huo Shuang was outside calling him and arguing with Zhan Rong... Xiao Nong was kissing him.

Every time Huo Shuang called him "young prince", Xiao Nong would deliberately bite his lower lip, lick the tip of his tongue, and kiss him fiercely and heavily, as if he wanted to swallow him.

Those deep blue eyes were like surging waves that would swallow him up in the next moment, and along with the owner of the eyes, they would be swept into the raging waves and sink into the boundless seabed.

Zhong Yansheng couldn't help but bury himself in the quilt again, leaving only a pair of misty eyes exposed.

He even deliberately waited until the last moment to leave...bad dog.

Zhong Yansheng had no reason to lie.

The conditions on the ship could not compare to those in the palace. The cabin was so small that everything was clearly visible. At night, someone indeed saw Yun Cheng bringing the medicine into the room, and there was an empty medicine bowl on the table.

The bed is too low to hide anyone.

Huo Shuang quickly scanned the cabin. Although he was still a little suspicious, he couldn't find any problems. He stood up and was about to lead people out. Wan Zhou, who was following behind him, suddenly said, "Wait."

Zhong Yansheng's heart skipped a beat as he thought of Xiao Nong's pair of shoes.

He quickly glanced under the bed and found that Xiao Nong's shoes had been kicked back under the bed, leaving only his own shoes on the floor.

“…”

Zhong Yansheng didn't know how to evaluate Xiao Nong for a moment.

Just now, Huo Shuang was about to open the door, but Xiao Nong was still pressing him down, kissing him wantonly and fiercely, as if he was so crazy that he didn't seem to care about anything and had thrown all the rules and etiquette to the winds.

But he did things very steadily and reassuringly. In just the blink of an eye, he not only wrapped Zhong Yansheng in the quilt, but also kicked the pair of slippers back under the bed while lowering the bed curtains, and then calmly climbed out the window.

If it weren't for the fact that His Royal Highness Prince Ding had never been involved in any romantic scandals, Zhong Yansheng would have thought that he had a lot of experience in having affairs.

...No, what kind of affair is this?

It's all Xiao Nong's fault. He mentioned something like an adulterer before leaving!

Zhong Yansheng's mind was in a mess, like a restless rabbit, and he couldn't calm down at all.

Wan Zhou's eyes were very sharp. When he saw the half-open window, he was filled with suspicion. He stared at the head of Zhong Yansheng's bed with a fierce look in his eyes: "What is that on the head of your bed? Before you rest, I went into the room for a routine inspection, but I have never seen anything like it."

Zhong Yansheng didn't even notice the things on the bedside table. He turned around when he heard the words and found that Wan Zhou was talking about the dagger that Xiao Nong gave him.

Just now he was making out with Xiao Nong on the bed, and the dagger got stuck in their midst, but was impatiently thrown away by Xiao Nong, and he had completely forgotten about it.

Huo Shuang didn't even dare to look at the bed for too long, but this man was staring at his bed.

Zhong Yansheng hated Wanzhou, but he was sent by the old emperor and couldn't be driven away. He calmly wrapped himself in the quilt and got up: "This is my personal belongings, so you have never seen it."

Wan Zhou refused to give in. Not only did he not retreat, but he took another step forward: "For your safety, please open the bed curtain and let me check it."

Huo Shuang: "Wan Zhou!"

Wanzhou ignored him and stared at Zhong Yansheng. He took a few steps forward, until he was close enough to pull aside the veil with a single move of his hand. "If anything happens to His Highness, we will not be able to explain to His Majesty."

When Huo Shuang heard the word "Your Majesty", the pair of cloudy and deep eyes appeared in his mind, and the words to stop him reached his throat and could not be uttered.

There was silence in the room.

Huo Shuang and his men said that they were rewarded to Zhong Yansheng, but each of them knew clearly who their real master was and what the purpose of sending them to follow Zhong Yansheng was.

So no one spoke up to stop Wanzhou.

Zhan Rong, who was originally watching the fun with his arms folded, stopped moving, grabbed Yun Cheng who was about to rush into the house, looked back, and just as he was about to get some hints from his master, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a bright knife light from the corner of his eye.

Zhan Rong's whole body was covered with hair, and he turned his head suddenly.

It was a dagger that silently broke through the veil and hit Wanzhou's abdomen.

Because it was too sudden and completely unexpected, Wanzhou was unable to dodge for a moment. His face changed instantly and he suddenly lowered his head.

Everyone inside and outside the room was shocked, staring at the hand that stretched out from behind the veil.

The hand that stretched out from behind the veil had loose sleeves, and the wrist bones were weak and thin, as if it would break if twisted, but it was firmly holding a strangely shaped dagger.

The young man's voice came from behind the veil, still clear and soft, but with a cold tone.

"This is my personal belongings - how do you see it clearly?"

There was nothing left on Zhong Yansheng's bed except for some mess.

But he knew very well that these guards were the old emperor's men, and seeing his soft temper, they probably didn't take him seriously. If he let Wanzhou search his bed, this group of people would only look down on him even more in the future.

If it gets out, it will not convince the public.

The dagger was too sharp. Just by brushing against Wanzhou's robe, a tear was left on the clothes. If it had pierced into the flesh, the consequences would be predictable.

Wanzhou couldn't understand why this little prince, who looked like a clay figure, always did something unexpected and stood stiff and dared not move.

"Who the hell do you think you are? How dare you boss me around?" Zhong Yansheng slowly retracted the dagger and put it back into the sheath with a thud. "Get out."

Wan Zhou's face turned green and red, he lowered his head and stepped back, his heart choking with anger: "I'm sorry, Your Highness."

Huo Shuang stared at this scene, and for some reason, he breathed a sigh of relief. He glared at Wan Zhou and said, "Why don't you leave? I disturbed Your Highness tonight. I will punish Wan Zhou severely when I return. Please forgive me... I will take my leave."

The guards retreated one after another, and Zhan Rong, who seemed to be there to watch the fun, also left the door.

Seeing this, Yun Cheng completely understood that although Zhong Yansheng had transformed himself into a prince in the palace, his life was not as easy as he thought. Feeling distressed and angry, he rushed into the room: "Master, how are you?"

Everyone left, and the room returned to silence, with only Yuncheng left.

Zhong Yansheng only then realized that his heart was beating so fast that his fingers were shaking, but he had tried very hard to suppress the trembling and successfully scared away the annoying Wan Zhou.

This trembling was not due to fear.

Zhong Yansheng hugged the dagger that Xiao Nong gave him tightly, feeling indescribably happy.

He didn't say anything, so Yun Cheng went to close the window and wanted to light a candle.

Zhong Yansheng came back to his senses and hurriedly stopped him: "Don't, don't click."

His face and lips were so red that Yun Cheng didn't know how to explain it to him.

Yun Cheng was very obedient. He didn't light the candles, but poured a cup of warm tea and handed it to the gauze curtain: "Master, please drink some tea to calm down. These people are too rude!"

Zhong Yansheng was indeed very thirsty, although the dryness was due to other reasons... He took it, took a sip, and his pounding heart slowly calmed down.

But he couldn't suppress his random thoughts.

Xiao Nong kissed him and taught him what it meant to have evil intentions.

Is it because...she has bad intentions towards him?

Oh my god.

When Zhong Yansheng thought of this, he felt incredible and almost choked. He quickly handed the teacup back and put the cold scabbard against his hot face. After hesitating for a while, he called out, "Yuncheng."

Yun Cheng moved a chair and sat at the head of the bed. He sighed and comforted Zhong Yansheng through the veil: "Don't be afraid, Master. I will stay in the room with you tonight."

After a pause, he looked around and asked in a low voice, "Master, has anyone really come to your room?"

Yun Cheng has been with Zhong Yansheng for so many years and is very familiar with his habits. Huo Shuang and Zhan Rong were so noisy outside just now that even if he was sleeping like a pig, he would be woken up.

If Zhong Yansheng was woken up, he would definitely get angry.

In the past, when Zhong Yansheng couldn't sleep, he would move a small stool and sit with Yun Cheng to talk.

Facing Yun Cheng, Zhong Yansheng did not hide anything and just said "hmm" softly.

Yun Cheng hissed, "Is it His Royal Highness Prince Ding?"

Zhong Yansheng blushed and nodded.

Yun Cheng was extremely worried: "Did His Royal Highness Prince Ding embarrass you again?"

Zhong Yansheng's eyelashes trembled: "Well... not really."

Xiao Nong did make him feel very embarrassed, but when Xiao Nong pinched his jaw and kissed him, the dagger was in his hand.

It was Xiao Nong who handed it to him.

When facing Wanzhou who wanted to embarrass him, he could draw out the dagger, but he couldn't do it when facing Xiao Nong.

Mr. Zhou said that a gentleman starts from emotion and stops at propriety, but Xiao Nong is not a gentleman. He is neither polite nor reasonable.

Zhong Yansheng had never been so confused and flustered. Neither his teacher nor the books had taught him what to do in such a situation. He wanted to talk to Yun Cheng about it, but he didn't know where to start with his turbulent and confused emotions.

Zhong Yansheng hugged his knees and thought about it. He heard Yun Cheng sigh: "It's all my fault. If I hadn't been too anxious when I eavesdropped on the Marquis' conversation, I wouldn't have caused you to go to the wrong place. You wouldn't have offended His Royal Highness Prince Ding and caused the trouble you have now. I have already apologized to His Royal Highness Prince Ding, but he still doesn't seem to want to let you go..."

"Ah?"

Hearing Yun Cheng's self-blame, Zhong Yansheng came back to his senses and was stunned for a moment: "What?"

Yun Cheng told Xiao Nong?

Doesn't that mean Xiao Nong already knew that he had found the wrong person before, and didn't go looking for him on purpose, and even the stone was not sent to him specially?

Given the pride of His Royal Highness Prince Ding, how would he react when he learned the truth?

The shy boy immediately put his thoughts aside. Zhong Yansheng felt his scalp tingling and asked in a daze, "Yuncheng, when did you confess to His Royal Highness Prince Ding?"

Yun Cheng felt a little uneasy when he realized that his tone was not right: "Just two days ago...what happened, Master?"

Two days ago... two days ago... two days ago he wrote a letter to Xiao Nong, and Xiao Nong replied with a circle and a period.

[T/L NOTE:- I don't know what this circle and period mean, but it was mentioned in previous chapters too, but I edited the period part.... and drawing circles means 'mess'.]

When we set out from the city gate, Xiao Nong did not show up either.

After he appeared with the black-armored soldiers, Xiao Nong grabbed him and put him on his horse, with a cold face and didn't say a word.

After getting on the boat, he became moody and got angry at him for no apparent reason.

Zhong Yansheng understood everything and said with difficulty: "...It's okay."

No wonder Xiao Nong suddenly turned cold and angry at him and refused to tell him the reason. Even Zhan Rong warned him not to ask the reason.

He thought Xiao Nong was sick again, so he ran to his room in the middle of the night and scolded him for a long time.

Zhong Yansheng shrank back into the quilt in embarrassment, luckily Xiao Nong didn't wake up at that time.

Zhong Yansheng remembered what Xiao Nong said, that he hated people in the royal family.

When Tian Xi suddenly appeared that day and brought him into the palace, Xiao Nong's attitude was cold and indifferent, and it seemed like he didn't want to pay attention to him.

He hasn't figured out his own identity yet. Although his identity is in doubt, Xiao Nong doesn't know.

Then in Xiao Nong's eyes, isn't he just an annoying little royal liar who lied to him and tricked him into calling him brother?

Xiao Nong must be very, very angry.

But why would Xiao Nong... kiss him even though he was so angry?

How would Xiao Nong see him?

Zhong Yansheng had almost mustered up the courage to guess whether Xiao Nong liked him a little, but when he thought of this, his swollen little excitement suddenly deflated.

How about, he crawls to Xiao Nong's room tomorrow night and explains it to him?

But Xiao Nong avoided talking about this matter and seemed not to want to mention it at all.

Zhong Yansheng was so confused that he felt he had no idea where to start.

"Yuncheng, when you confessed to His Royal Highness Prince Ding, what did he look like?"

Yun Cheng hissed, recalled Xiao Nong's expression that day, and shuddered: "It was quite terrifying."

It's over, Xiao Nong was really angry.

Zhong Yansheng fell back on the pillow in despair and sighed sadly: "Yuncheng, it's getting late, you should go back and rest, you don't have to accompany me."

It's not Yun Cheng's fault. He found the wrong person before because the conditions he gave were too vague. He didn't think much about it when he went to Xiao Nong’s private residence.

Later, he didn't dare to face Xiao Nong's anger when he knew the truth, and he never confessed to Xiao Nong. But Xiao Nong would find out sooner or later, and Yun Cheng just moved the time forward a little bit.

Yun Cheng was not too reassured: "Master, can you really do this alone?"

"Yeah." Zhong Yansheng's tone was vague, "I can do it."

He just wants to be alone now.

After Yuncheng left, the room became quieter. The rain was still heavy, and the sound of water rushed into the ears, disturbing people's peace of mind.

The cabin next door is Xiao Nong's room.

Has Xiao Nong returned to his room now?

Zhong Yansheng moved to the inside of the bed, looked at the wall separating them, and pressed his hands on the cold wall. After a while, he touched his still swollen and painful lips, and felt his hands and feet were still a little weak.

If Mr. Zhou knew that he kissed a man, he would definitely slap the palm of his hand.

When he thought of the pair of deep blue eyes looking at him, he felt panicked. He turned his back and began to think in annoyance.

How can we make Xiao Nong calm down?

Too many things happened tonight, and Zhong Yansheng originally thought that he might not be able to fall asleep. However, after thinking about all sorts of things for a while, he was enveloped by the faint scent left from Xiao Nong's body and fell into a deep sleep.

The dream was shaky and continued with what didn't happen last night.

It was raining in the dream. It was clearly raining, and every spot was wet, yet it was so stuffy that it made me feel breathless.

The knee that was rubbing between the legs was also replaced by something else.

When he woke up the next day, it was already late.

Zhong Yansheng woke up panting, wrapped himself in the quilt, and stayed there for a long time before he got up with a red face. He didn't dare to see anyone, and asked Yun Cheng to bring in hot water through the door.

After wiping off the sweat and other things on his body, Zhong Yansheng vaguely saw his face in the mirror.

There was a spring in her eyes, his eyebrows were full of spring, his eyes were watery and blushing, it was really... very unpresentable.

Zhong Yansheng didn't dare to go out at all, feeling very heavy.

It's over, he has really turned bad.

But he couldn't blame Xiao Nong, because he was the one who provoked Xiao Nong first.

No matter how Xiao Nong saw him... he recognized the wrong person and didn't explain. It was indeed his fault.

Zhong Yansheng didn't dare to see Xiao Nong for a moment, so he decided to write a letter first to sincerely apologize to Xiao Nong.

He ground the ink and wrote on the envelope: To my brother.

After writing it, he hesitated for a moment, rolled it into a ball, burned it, and rewrote: To His Royal Highness Prince Ding.

But he still felt something was not right, so he rolled it into a ball and burned it. After thinking about it seriously, he didn't know what to call Xiao Nong.

While Zhong Yansheng was calling out in annoyance in the room, Xiao Nong leaned against the bow of the boat, glanced at Zhong Yansheng's room which was heavily guarded by the guards today, and said "tsk" softly.

Last night still made Huo Shuang alert, and today there were people standing by Zhong Yansheng's door and window.

It's been almost a day and the child hasn't come out yet. Could it be that he is so angry that he really ignores him?

Recalling the ecstasy of last night, Xiao Nong licked the corner of his lips and did not regret what he had done.

Excessive is a bit too much...

Be good, what's wrong with a kiss?

We will disembark in three days, and when we arrive at Baoqing Prefecture, the boat will not be as empty as it was on the boat.

Xiao Nong lowered his eyes and decided to speed up and prepare the apology gift.

Try to get another kiss next time.

At night, Zhong Yansheng discovered that the defense outside his house had become much tighter. The guards no longer patrolled, but were stationed outside his house. He only poked his head out, and a guard would ask, "Your Highness, is there anything you need?"

Zhong Yansheng opened his eyes wide, realizing that he couldn't get out, and Xiao Nong probably had no way of getting into his room. He held the twentieth apology letter he had just written, glared at the guards, and shrank back.

Guard: “…”

These guards had legitimate reasons to be standing guard outside the house, and it was not an offense. Zhong Yansheng could not find a reason to send them away. He walked around the room a few times in annoyance and then burned the twentieth letter.

If the words don't express what you want to say, then try using the method he is good at.

Zhong Yansheng thought for a while, picked up the pen again, and with just a few strokes, sketched out a beautiful little man. The little man had a dream, so he went out to look for someone.

A pretty little person was sitting on the wall of Changliu Courtyard, and below him was another little person sitting in a wheelchair with a veil covering his eyes.

To express his apology, Zhong Yansheng carefully painted the little man sitting in the wheelchair to look exceptionally handsome.

I hope my brother won't be so angry after reading this.

In the cabin next door, Xiao Nong leaned against the wall, holding the carving knife, and carefully carved the object in his hand one stroke at a time.

...If he accepts his apology gift and still ignores me, I will have to use the golden shackles in the mansion.

The ship sailed steadily through the wind and waves and gradually approached Baoqing Prefecture.

Zhong Yansheng was a person who could stay indoors very well. He spent the next few days in his cabin, busy drawing his own little man.

The sky had cleared up on the day we arrived at Baoqing Prefecture.

The express horse arrived at Baoqing Prefecture first and delivered the news. It was known that the court had sent the eleventh prince to lead troops. The governor, general, and provincial governor of the prefecture were all present and waiting at the ferry.

Without waiting too long, the first ship docked, the steps were lowered, and a team of guards led the way. A moment later, the rumored eleventh prince appeared in sight.

He actually had very beautiful eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, a soft and graceful face, eyes that were affectionate but extremely clear, and not timid, not as weak as I had heard in advance.

Governor Gui Guang secretly sized up Zhong Yansheng, but didn't take it too seriously. Although it was somewhat unexpected that His Majesty did not send Prince De but a newly recognized little prince, according to the news they had received in advance, the tough guy from Mobei had also followed.

Moreover, it seems that the relationship between the two little princes is very bad. Someone on the tower ship brought up the news from a small boat in advance. It is said that in the two days before arriving at Baoqing Mansion, the little prince and the prince did not even meet each other, which shows that they dislike each other.

The local officials were struggling over who was more important, a little prince who suddenly appeared and had no power, or a prince who commanded a large number of troops. Governor Wei led the people and took the lead in warmly welcoming Zhong Yansheng: "Your humble servant greets His Highness the Eleventh Prince. Your Highness has come from afar to suppress bandits. Your humble servant is deeply terrified and grateful. Your Highness is tired from the journey, please get on the carriage. Your humble servant has already ordered people to clean the posthouse in advance."

[T/L NOTE:- Posthouse = Inn]

Zhong Yansheng didn't notice their grateful expressions. He just blinked and said, "Thank you. What are you looking at?"

Everyone ignored him, a little boy, and kept looking towards the ship.

What about that one?

Why hasn't that evil spirit appeared yet?

Zhong Yansheng looked back in the direction they were looking, and then became a little worried.

Why hasn't Xiao Nong come out yet? Is he seasick again?

His Royal Highness Prince Ding was very concerned about his reputation, and probably stayed in the house and refused to come out to see anyone because he was seasick.

As everyone was thinking, a cold voice suddenly sounded from behind: "What are you looking at?"

Everyone was frightened and turned their heads suddenly, only to find that Xiao Nong was right behind them, riding on a horse with a dozen black-armored guards, looking at them with a half-smile.

Those deep blue eyes were so famous that even people who had never seen Xiao Nong would know who he was just by looking at his pupil color.

Not only were the local officials trembling with fear, but even Huo Shuang and others were also confused.

When did Xiao Nong get off the boat first? They didn't even notice!

Although his belt was almost untied, Zhong Yansheng had not seen Xiao Nong for several days as he was stuck in the room drawing little figures.

When in front of everyone, Xiao Nong's face was always cold and indifferent. His pair of blue eyes like icy lakes swept across other people, and when they fell on him, they paused for a moment, and raised the tip of his eyebrows slightly.

The local official who was secretly observing the two of them said: Wow! Sure enough, they have a bad relationship!

[T/L has something to say:- woah! Can't believe that whoever sees them says that they have bad relationship, I am literally starting to think that they are blind.]

Others could not see the strange look in Xiao Nong's eyes, but Zhong Yansheng felt that his eyes were like hooks, slowly falling from his face to his narrow waist tightened by the belt, and then slowly returning to his face.

As if he was licked in public by Taxue, Zhong Yansheng's fingertips curled up, and he couldn't help but think of that chaotic night again.

If Huo Shuang hadn't tried to break in that night, all his clothes might have been stripped off by Xiao Nong.

Does Xiao Nong want to sleep with him?

If he slept with Xiao Nong...how could Xiao Nong not be angry?

Zhong Yansheng was shocked when this thought suddenly popped up in his mind, and he immediately dismissed it seriously.

What are you thinking about!

If Mr. Zhou knew this, he would be beaten to death!

Zhong Yansheng frowned, looking like he was thinking seriously, trying his best to make himself look smart: "Since Uncle is here, let's go to the posthouse first."
