Chapter 84
The two passed through the busy city and turned into a quiet alley. After walking a few steps, they came to the door of a house. Elegant.

"What kind of place is this?" Zhuang Wan asked suspiciously.

Could it be that Yan Cheng still has old friends in the capital?

Yan Cheng smiled, took out the key and opened the door, and walked in by himself. Seeing Zhuang Wan's bewildered face, he took her hand: "Come in."

Zhuang Wan walked in hesitantly.I saw a small courtyard when I entered the door, with a grape trellis on one side and stone tables and benches underneath.The grapes on the shelf are long gone, just some withered and yellow leaves.But the grape vines are very strong, and in summer, the green leaves will be overcast and the fruits will be abundant.

On the other hand, the sweet-scented osmanthus tree on the other side is just when the branches are full of flowers, and the rich fragrance of flowers permeates the whole yard.

Behind the courtyard are three rooms, all with white walls, green tiles and red eaves. The window lattices are carved with hollow bamboo leaves and pasted with transparent paper.

"Whose yard is this?" Zhuang Wan asked.

Yan Cheng didn't speak, he smiled and pulled her into a room, he saw a carved bed, a gauze made of lotus root powder, a quilt covered with flowers and branches, and a dressing table by the window with rouge and gouache.

It was clearly a woman's boudoir.

Zhuang Wan became more and more confused.

Yan Cheng suddenly hugged her from behind, and said softly: "From now on, this is our home!"

Zhuang Wan quickly broke free from his arms: "What do you mean?"

"I bought this house for you." Yan Cheng said.

Zhuang Wan was really happy about Yan Cheng buying her a house, but she was curious where he got the money from.

"Isn't all your money with me? Where do you have money to buy?"

"You are only rewarded by the Holy One, and the prince also rewarded me with some silver." Yan Cheng said: "From now on, my salary will be enough for you to live comfortably."

Well, long-term meal tickets seem to be available.

Zhuang Wan picked up a box of rouge: "You bought these too?"

Yan Cheng said embarrassedly: "I don't understand these things. The shopkeeper of the cosmetics shop picked them, saying that they are all women's favorite things."

Zhuang Wan opened it and smelled it, the fragrance was strong and pungent.Seeing that the lip balm is also a coquettish red color, I'm afraid it's not specially prepared for those fireworks girls.

"where did you buy?"

"Linlang Pavilion in the east of the city."

Zhuang Wan nodded, and saw that there was a tray next to it, covered with a cloth, and when she opened it, it was clothes and jewelry.

It seems that this kid has a lot of money in his hand, and he bought so much.

She looked at the colorful clothes and jewelry full of nouveau riche temperament and said:

"These were picked out for you, too!"

Yan Cheng nodded honestly.

"Which one did you buy?"

"Splendid Workshop."

Zhuang Wan said "oh", and covered it with a cloth again.

Yan Cheng saw that she didn't seem to like it very much, so he said, "If you don't like it, you can pick something else another day."

Zhuang Wan looked at him with a smile: "General Li is so generous, do you want to hide your beauty in a golden house?"

"I..." Yan Cheng blushed and didn't know how to answer.

He did these things just to try his best to give Zhuang Wan the best, and to make her happy.If he really had a golden house, maybe he would really hide her.

Zhuang Wan stopped teasing him and said, "Very good, I accept it."

"It's fine if you like it." Yan Cheng said, "Now you don't need to dress up as a man anymore, you can use everything like this."

"That's right!" Zhuang Wan twisted her shoulders: "This chest wrap really hurts me, and I can finally take it off."

However, although it is quite troublesome to pretend to be a man, she also found that it is really convenient to do whatever she wants to do.

Hearing what she said, Yan Cheng felt a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "I still have some things to deal with in the camp, so I'm going back first, and I'll see you later."

"Okay, let's go!" Zhuang Wan said.

As soon as Yan Cheng left, she hurried out with the rouge, gouache, clothes and jewelry he bought...

Outside the gate of the barracks, guarding soldiers stopped Xiao Jingyu: "The barracks is an important place, idlers are not allowed to enter!"

Because he lived in seclusion on weekdays, the guards did not recognize him.This is Xiao Jingchen's territory again, and he didn't want to reveal his identity, just to cause trouble.

"Two military lords, is there a military lord named Zhuang Wan in the camp, please ask him to come out, just say that Mr. Xiao is looking for him."

As he spoke, he handed over a few broken pieces of silver.

The guard said: "You should take this money back, the prince has an order, I can't wait to take the money privately. I will go find it for you, do you know which general he is under?"

Xiao Jingyu shook his head: "I don't know which general he is under. I only know that his name is Zhuang Wan. He is not tall and has a handsome appearance. By the way, he has a mole on his neck."

"What are you looking for with Zhuang Wan?" A cold voice sounded from behind.

Xiao Jingyu turned around and saw that the visitor had an extraordinary demeanor, so he asked, "Brother, do you know him?"

The two guards hurriedly clasped their hands and saluted: "General Li!"

Only then did Xiao Jingyu realize that he was a general, so he nodded slightly.

Yan Cheng gave him a cold look, and asked, "What do you want her for?"

"Oh~ that's it..." Xiao Jingyu was about to tell the reason, when Pang Ao happened to leave the camp, saw Yan Cheng and hurriedly said, "I was looking for you! Where did you go?"

When he saw Xiao Jingyu, he felt very familiar. After thinking about it, he hurriedly saluted: "The general has met His Royal Highness the Seventh."

Xiao Jingyu said unnaturally: "General Pang, there is no need to be too polite."

"Your Highness still remembers the last general." Pang Ao remembered that the last time he and Xiao Jingyu met was at his uncle's birthday banquet a few years ago.

Xiao Jingyu smiled and said, "Since General Pang remembers everything, how can I forget it?"

Seeing this, Yan Cheng also bowed and said: "The last general, Li Daniu, has seen His Highness."

"So you are Li Daniu who captured Motu!" Xiao Jingyu looked adoringly: "I never thought that General Li would be so young, he is really a young talent."

Yan Cheng: "Your Highness is absurd."

Pang Ao said: "I don't know what your Highness is doing here?"

"It's nothing serious, I'm here to find someone." Xiao Jingyu asked, "I wonder if the general knows Zhuang Wan?"

"Zhuang Wan?" Pang Ao said: "He was originally under the command of the last general. Because the prince was sympathetic, he allowed him to return to his hometown to serve his mother. He just left today. I wonder why Your Highness is looking for him?"

"Oh~ so that's the case." Xiao Jingyu thought that if he paid back the money the next day as promised, nothing would happen.However, he has been running errands for Xiao Jingheng for the past few days, so he is free today.

"It's nothing! It's just a trivial matter. Since he's not here, I'll go first."

As a prince, it would be dishonorable to talk about borrowing money.

"The last general will send you off to Your Highness!"

Yan Cheng looked up at Xiao Jingyu's back and frowned.He didn't know when Zhuang Wan met him, and what kind of friendship they had, so that Xiao Jingyu even knew that she had a mole on her neck.

"Okay!" Pang Ao patted him on the shoulder: "Go, go to the competition with me."

Yan Cheng nodded, but the suspicion in his heart made him restless all afternoon.
