Chapter 8

  On the way back, Yuan Li turned his head again and again to look at Chu Hechao, staring at the dark belt around his waist.

  Chu Hechao was furious at being stared at, and caught Yuan Li's gaze with a sneer, "What are you looking at, sister-in-law?"

  Yuan Li told the truth, "Looking at your belt." Even a copper coin would be picked up with great care. Chu Hechao was poorer than he thought.

  The man had broad shoulders and a narrow waist, a standard inverted triangle figure. The muscles under the belt were firm and tight, full of fierce explosive power. Looking at his belt is no different from looking at his waist.

  After saying this, Yuan Li felt that Chu Hechao's eyes became colder, and he realized belatedly that this sentence seemed to be misunderstood.

  It seemed to be seen as a provocation.

  Yuan Li touched his nose and made amends, "The general's belt has a nice pattern."

  Chu Hechao curled his lips, "This is the clothes prepared by my sister-in-law's people."
  After saying this, his eyes moved to Yuan Li's waist. His sister-in-law, who had not yet come of age, was still a young man with slender limbs. She was not weak, but she was not good enough to be seen in the military camp. Chu Hechao looked at Yuanli's figure jokingly, and deliberately circled his slender waist, mocking: "It's not as good-looking as your sister-in-law's."

  "No, no," Yuanli said politely, "Yours is better."

  It was a bit awkward for two grown men to discuss whose belt was better. Chu Hechao sneered and didn't say anything else.

  That night, the two stayed at the farm.

  There were many mosquitoes and noisy noises on the farm. Cicadas chirped, frogs croaked, chickens crowed, and pigs howled. Yuanli fell asleep in the middle of the night. When he woke up the next day, there was a blue color in his eyes.

  Today, they were going to plant rice. After breakfast, Yuanli advised Chu Hechao, "My father's fields are on the edge of the farm, deep in the forest, and the road is far and remote. It's better for you to stay on the farm."

  Chu Hechao smiled. His slender fingers in black leather gloves stroked the reins, and he didn't give in. "What are you talking about, sister-in-law? As a family, my brother is not here, how can I watch you work alone?"

  This was the first time Yuanli heard the word "brother" from Chu Hechao.

  He also inquired about some news in the past few days. According to rumors, the relationship between Chu Hechao and Chu Mingfeng was not very good. It is said that when Chu Hechao was about to die on the battlefield, Chu Mingfeng was still in Shangjing City to invite colleagues to drink and recite poems and take Wushisan. When the news came, the young cabinet elder's expression did not change. He sighed and smiled with his friends, "Whether he lives or dies, it's his fate."

  After that, he drank a glass of wine.

  Everyone said that it was because Chu Mingfeng and Chu Hechao had the same parents that Chu Mingfeng would do his best to collect enough military pay for Chu Hechao and transport it to the northern border. If they were not the same parents, he would never care about Chu Hechao's life or death.

  Since Yuanli married into the Chu Palace, he often saw traces of grief and sadness on the faces of the Chu King and Yang, but Chu Hechao never showed a sad face because of his dying brother, and even seemed particularly indifferent and unmoved.
