Chapter 26
It's all a Big MISUNDERSTANDING !!!
Wei Ying hissed, holding his head.
Hsss----
Zichen-- Qing, are you all right? Why did you stand up all of a sudden?
Wei Ying-- I think I might have heard someone calling...my name?
( In his mind ) It's actually the name of the Ninth Princess, Xie Huan.
Zichen-- Wait a minute...
Wei Ying-- ( Opening the door, but seeing nobody ) Nobody? Did I really hear it Wrong?
Zichen-- Might just be the Wind.
Wei Ying-- I was afraid that his Majesty had dispatched someone to pursue us.
Zichen-- ( speaking softly ) If his Majesty really catch up with us, would you go back?
Wei Ying-- What?.....
( thinking for a moment)
Well...honestly....I have never thought of this Question. My escape today has been UNINTENTIONAL .
Zichen - ( freaking out and holding him) You cannot go back! No way!
Wei Ying- ( uncomfortable by the way Zichen is holding him ) You...be gentle. You are hurting me!
Zichen-- Sorry.
Wei Ying-- Do I really get to choose if I can go back?
Besides, Running away without Permission while holding The Title of a Concubine, and that too, with you....A Suspicion of Elopement....I'd be lucky if He didn't KILL Me on the Spot. If I were Captured and taken back, Death May Be The Only Result.
Zichen-- No. A Yan isn't that Kind of Man.
Wei Ying-- ( confused) Who's A Yan?
Zichen-- A Yan is the Majesty-- Yan Gui.
Didn't I tell you? Me and Him, We are Half brothers born of the Same Father.
I have been Learning Medicine since I was Young. After He came to Power, He made Me The Principal Imperial Advisor in Title.
Wei Ying-- ( in his mind ) Heck, when did you tell me all these? After coming out, all you said was That QING Nagging dammit!
No wonder why he is so Emboldened.
Wei Ying-- So, what's your relationship with Qing exactly?
Zichen-- Qing was my sole LOVE for all my Life.
Wei Ying-- ( puzzled and terrified) Sole LOVE??!
( going crazy in his mind)
OMG It's not Right. I am Now the Concubine of Your brother!! This is such a Big MISUNDERSTANDING!!
I just thought of using Yan Zichen to Escape. But I do not want to get into others' Relationship, acting as another's LOVER!!!!
ESPECIALLY---YOU! YAN ZICHEN-- YOU MIGHT BE MY SISTER--IN--LAW".
Wei Ying took a deep breath and exhaled, preparing to make his statement. Because now he got all the missing links.
Wei Ying-- Yan Zichen, Listen to Me---
I think there's Nothing Wrong with my MEMORY. I AM NOT QING!
You must have mistaken me as another....
Ya Zichen gave a poker face.
Wei Ying looked at his impenetrable gaze --" Zichen-- what.... What are you looking at me like that? You're scary.
Zichen-- If you're not QING, then how could you know the name Xie Qing?
Wei Ying-- I....
Zichen-- If you are not QING, then coming to the MING country in the name of the Ninth Princess of the Chen country, is a SIN of withholding the Truth from the Majesty. Our country can declare war against the Chen country with this reason!
Wei Ying's face instantly turned pale.
Zichen-- I have been to the Chen country when I was travelling everywhere earlier. The Ninth princess's favour was known by everybody there, so her fate is extremely honoured and wealthy.
There was even a rumour that if the Ninth Princess was a man, He would be the only candidate for the Crown Prince Of the Chen country. So the Ninth Princess Must be a woman! You....
Wei Ying-- ( face ashen, thinking ) Am I going to lose my cover here?
Zichen-- If you are not QING, then you must be somewhat related to QING!
I was too reckless to take you away, without gathering enough information.
I'll take you back tomorrow morning. You should rest early. I will find another place to sleep.
Wei Ying-- ......
( In his mind ) I don't want to go back!
I went through so much trouble to escape. How can I just go back now?
_______________
On the other hand, the moment Yan Zichen goes out of the Inn, he comes face to face with Lan Wangji.
Zichen-- ( looking at Wangji remorsefully) A Yan, I'm Sorry.
Lan Wangji-- ( face grim ) Yan -- I can tolerate your betrayal this time. But I won't Be so kind Next Time.
Zichen-- Then what about him?
Lan Wangji turns away, and flashes of Wei Ying cuddled in his arms the other night, rises in his memory.
Lan Wangji-- ( sternly ) You don't need to know. It's a matter between a husband and his wife!
To be Continued.....
Dated : 29.08.23
________________________
So, Zichen says sorry. Lan Wangji is as expected mad but he pardons his brother, which says he has a generous heart.
But what about Wei Ying--? Will he be as forgiving towards his Wife?
Keep thinking until we meet again...
Take care. Good night. ❤️
