Chapter 136: Prince’s little quilt 11 (part 2 of 2)
There were both inquisitive and fawning, there were also pensive thoughts and wariness. Among these was an especially distinct one with piercing jealousy and resentment which seemed to want to pierce through him.
No thinking was needed for him to know who this gaze belongs to.
After sitting back in his respective seat, Yuwen Yin turned his head slightly, and finally looked directly towards where Qi Wang and Yuwen Zhengyang were seated. However, this look seemed like a careless charity. This eye contact had only further highlighted the aloofness and remoteness of Yuwen Yin’s dignity.
After all the dishes had been completely served, Emperor Qing raised his wine cup and wished the prosperity of the country for the coming year with everyone. Out of consideration to the overall situation, the wine in this time’s banquet was especially brewed by the Imperial chef, to have a sweet taste. Which even allows the elderly and women to be able to drink some. Not only did it look like pear juice, the fragrance of the wine was also mellow and light.
Seeing the table full of food, and having a whiff of the sweet-smelling wine, already made the little quilt super greedy. But as a quilt without any mouth, and even relies on spiritual perception to see things, so, eating was even more out of the question. The hidden and unchangeable nature of foodie had really made the little quilt unable to hold itself back from extending the corner of the little quilt, and stealthily dipping it into the wine in the cup.
At first it was only able to smell a bit more of the wine, but at the same time as it’s quilt corner became more soaked, it sensed that it seemed to be finally able to taste the flavor of the wine. It’s eyes immediately lit up, as it joyfully and expectantly explored the wine cup once more.
With a naturally pampering treatment, Yuwen Yin naturally let it do what it wanted to do without a fuss, so long as the little guy was happy. He even moved the wine cup near the edge of the table, to be more accessible to it.
Because the Emperor granted permission to fully enjoy the banquet, everyone gradually loosened up. They whispered, chatted, laughed and urged each other to drink, so for a period of time, no one paid attention to Yuwen Yin’s side. The wine cup wasn’t that big, so the little quilt’s ‘hand’ was able to completely absorb that bit of wine in the cup all at once. Having accidentally been able to finally taste the wine very clearly in this manner, the little quilt couldn’t refrain from flapping it’s quilt corner in excitement for a while, just like a cheerful and lively baby bird flapping it’s tiny wings.
Such an adorable appearance made Yuwen Yin’s gaze as gentle as dripping water. However, having tasted the sweet flavor, the little quilt that could no longer be satisfied with the very small wine cup, aimed it’s sights at the large wine flagon filled with wine.
As a result, it swiftly moved to the wine flagon located at the center of the main table. Taking advantage of the time when everyone’s attention were completely drawn to the hard-working acrobats performance, it lifted open the wine flagon’s lid without any worry.
The performance had coincidentally reached it’s climax at this moment, that even the Emperor couldn’t help from voicing his appreciation. Everyone hurriedly rushed to clap their hands altogether in response, affecting the table. As the main table shook, the wine flagon naturally wobbled as well. Because the lid had been removed, the wine inside was spilled on the little quilt’s body.
The little quilt immediately became stupefied, before frowning subconsciously.
Eunuch Liu also had a slight frown. He remembered that he had definitely covered the wine flagon just a while ago, but he now had to cover it once more, which was really bizarre. Moreover, the strong absorbent property of a cotton instantly absorbed all the spilt wine, which could be regarded as the little quilt having a thorough taste of the wine, which almost filled half it’s belly full of liquor.
Although this wine tasted sweet and mellow, but this still wasn’t a fruit juice after all, so drinking too much will lead to drunkenness, in addition to it packing a strong punch. The little quilt quickly showed signs of drunkenness. Two red blushes emerged on it’s little face outside the quilt cover. It even giddily belched in intoxication. It’s originally unsteady gait simply became even more wobbly, making the onlooker, Yuwen Yin, worry incessantly, wishing that he could go and carry it over.
The little quilt eventually failed to walk back to Yuwen Yin’s side.
Having been completely drunk, it not only felt muddle-headed, but also saw double images. Just when it was only three to four steps away from Yuwen Yin, it eventually fell on it’s butt. It couldn’t be bothered to rub it’s aching bottom, as it groggily rubbed it’s blurry sight with it’s quilt corner instead.
Fortunately, no one passed by that area where it was seated. The banquet had also gradually reached it’s end. The Empress Dowager returned to her palace in advance due to fatigue. Yuwen Yin seized this opportunity, in respectfully bidding the Empress Dowager off, to leave his seat, and was able to successfully carry the little quilt into his arms.
Having sensed a familiar embrace, the little quilt became very well-behaved and didn’t flail about, but softly embraced Yuwen Yin’s waist. At the strike of midnight, Emperor Qing drank one last cup of wine with the others before leaving this place ahead of the others as well. Upon seeing this opportunity, Yuwen Yin acted and took the drunk little quilt back to Changde Palace.
At the strike of midnight, after this year had officially passed by, Yuwen Yin had officially become a year older as well. In the Dayu dynasty, even though 15 years old is considered as an adult, but so long as he’s given two more years, he will grow into an adult whose capable of protecting himself and need not rely on others to live. The people who hate him will not dare to hate anymore, but will only feel a strong sense of reverence and fear.
The little quilt in Yuwen Yin arms did not move at all, making Yuwen Yin mistakenly assume that this little guy would still be so well-behaved even when drunk, which was really heartrending. But it unexpectedly started to make a fuss once they returned to Changde Palace, as it fluttered it’s four quilt corners to put up a struggle, and was completely resistant in entering the room.
Fortunately, Yuwen Yin had an infinite amount of patience when dealing with the little quilt, as he coaxed it with an exceptionally gentle voice: “Tong Tong be good, quickly come inside. It’s cold outside, there are also big monsters that eat people…….”
The little quilt was coaxed in the room, but it started to kick up a fuss once more when it faced the bath bucket. The Palace Eunuch and Maids had long been waved away by Yuwen Yin. Yuwen Yin placed his arms around the little quilt, and continued to coax: “You have been thoroughly drenched with wine. It will become pungent after some time. So let’s wash up and go to bed, alright? “
“Don’t want to, don’t want to,” the little quilt shook it’s head unhappily, and pointed outside with it’s little quilt corner: “I want to go to the flower garden outside!”
“What are you going to the flower garden for?”
The little quilt had indeed become too drunk, as it unexpectedly voiced out in a very serious manner: “Because I am a small flower, I have to be placed and buried in soil! I need to be buried very very deeply!!”
The little guy’s drunk voice sounded softer and cutesy, in addition to having a quiet childlike tone. Such an adorable look made Yuwen Yin caught in between tears and laughter. In the end, Yuwen Yin still made use of the carrot and stick method, and remove the quilt cover before placing the little quilt in the bath bucket. Then applied the same method as when he washed the quilt the last time, by immersing the bulging part of it’s body in the water first.
However, just like last time as well, the hydrophobic little quilt was immediately given a start the moment it’s buttocks became soaked. Maybe due to suffering from such a terrible shock, it’s whole body unexpectedly emitted a faint white light in the next second. The quilt then changed into a beautiful and bare naked youth!!
Thus, a beautiful scenery suddenly appeared right before Yuwen Yin’s eyes.
The youth’s pinkish delicate-looking cheeks, delicately unique countenance, and slim body, exudes a fatal allure. This scene was so shocking and surprising, that it actually stunned Yuwen Yin completely, causing him to subconsciously loosen his hold.
As a result, the youth fell with a splash into the bath bucket’s water causing a big splash immediately afterwards. After being choked with a mouthful of water, the little quilt felt extremely wronged, not knowing that in Yu Wenyin’s perspective, the youth that fell in the water was just like a sprite that fell from the heavens, with long wet lashes, and skin as white as porcelain, which looked so beautiful.
