Chapter 283 'Obedient' Little Eunuch Forced Love 22
Huai Yanzhi thought about it and said tentatively: "These are similar, I can recognize them all."
Lu Huaiyuan nodded, and then pointed at a few names.
Seeing that Huai Yanzhi could read it, he couldn't help but smile.
Lu Huaiyuan: "You've learned well."
Hearing the praise, Huai Yanzhi reached out and scratched his head, smiling obediently.
But he tilted his head to look at the words on the paper and asked curiously, "Is that someone else's name, Your Highness?"
"Yeah." Lu Huaiyuan responded softly, but didn't say much.
He had previously asked 2237 to investigate the case of his uncle being framed for corruption, and now there is some progress.
However, since those people were able to commit such corruption and even tried to put the blame on the Lou family later, they should be prepared to bear the backlash.
Thinking of this, Lu Huaiyuan looked at the names on the paper, and his eyes couldn't help but darken.
But at the moment, he didn't intend to explain the details of these things to Huai Yanzhi one by one.
Although Huai Yanzhi didn't know what he was thinking, it was obvious that he had no intention of asking further questions.
Instead, Lu Huaiyuan looked at Huai Yanzhi who was staring at the paper obediently, and couldn't help but think of another thing.
He paused, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Did you take the name Xiao Qi after entering the palace?"
Huai Yanzhi shook his head: "No."
He was silent for a moment, thinking for a moment before explaining, "My family sold me to a human trafficker, and they changed my name for the sake of convenience."
Lu Huaiyuan lowered his eyes slightly and asked again, "Do you still remember your previous name?"
Huai Yanzhi shook his head gently: "I don't remember."
"It's been a while, and many of my previous memories have become blurry."
When he said this, he lowered his head, but a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
But as to whether he had forgotten the name or did not want to mention it, it was unknown.
However, Huai Yanzhi raised his head and glanced at Lu Huaiyuan again, then said, "Your Highness, are you asking these questions? Do you not like my current name?"
Lu Huaiyuan denied it: "No."
"As long as it's you, everything is fine."
The second half of the sentence was spoken so softly that Huai Yanzhi didn't hear it clearly at all.
"What did Your Highness just say?" he asked.
Lu Huaiyuan curled his lips, and his tone became more serious.
"I think the name Xiao Qi is very good. I don't dislike it."
Huai Yanzhi smiled, but as if he thought of something, his eyes turned slightly.
He looked at Lu Huaiyuan and said, "Your Highness, tonight is New Year's Eve. Can I ask for your mercy?"
Lu Huaiyuan: "Well, whatever you say is fine."
Huai Yanzhi said, "I wonder if I have the honor to be personally given a name by His Highness?"
In fact, his original name "Huai Yanzhi" was given by Lu Huaiyuan.
But now, time has passed and everything in his memory has never happened.
But think about it, those things may never happen again.
This thought came to his mind, and Huai Yanzhi's breathing became a little faster, and his mind was in a mess.
So much so that he couldn't even tell what he was thinking at the moment.
But looking at the person in front of him, Huai Yanzhi subconsciously made this request for some reason.
However, when Lu Huaiyuan heard his words, he couldn't help but be stunned.
He raised his eyes to look at Huai Yanzhi, and for a moment he was unable to see through the other person's thoughts.
Seeing Lu Huaiyuan just looking at him without saying anything, Huai Yanzhi felt unusually nervous.
Just when he was about to find some excuse for himself, he heard the other party say, "Okay."
Huai Yan was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Lu Huaiyuan smiled, his tone somewhat ambiguous.
"So, Xiaoqi, what kind of name do you want?"
Huai Yanzhi lowered his head slightly and avoided his sight.
He said, "I am not very literate. Your Highness, please make the decision."
"Slave, I will obey your Highness."
After Huai Yanzhi finished speaking, Lu Huaiyuan did not speak.
He just looked at the person beside him quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, Lu Huaiyuan slowly withdrew his gaze.
He pondered for a moment, changed another piece of paper, and finally picked up the pen and wrote down three words.
Huai Yanzhi took a deep breath, calmed himself, and then looked up.
But when he saw the contents on the paper clearly, he was stunned for a moment.
Seeing Huai Yanzhi's reaction, Lu Huaiyuan couldn't help but curl his lips.
"Why, you don't like this name?"
Hearing Lu Huaiyuan's question, Huai Yanzhi quickly shook his head and denied it: "No."
As he spoke, he took a half step back and bowed, "Thank you, Your Highness, for the name. I am very happy."
Huai Yanzhi looked at Lu Huaiyuan with a faint smile on his face.
Compared to before, the emotions in his eyes at this moment were much more genuine.
However, Lu Huaiyuan did not comment on Huai Yanzhi's words.
He shifted his gaze from the paper to the other person and said softly, "Chu Linyan, Ah Yan."
Hearing this unfamiliar name, Huai Yanzhi felt a sudden surge of inexplicable emotion in his heart.
Chu Linyan?
So in this life, he will no longer be 'Huai Yanzhi', right?
He will no longer be the despised head of the East Factory, nor will he be a chess piece in the hands of others that can be discarded at any time, right?
Chu Linyan blinked, and inexplicably felt a little sore in his eyes.
He quickly lowered his head to cover up his gaffe.
Lu Huaiyuan took in everything, but did nothing.
Chu Linyan lowered his head, took a few deep breaths, and then spoke again: "This name, I like it very much."
"I'm just being a bit daring and would like to ask Your Highness to teach me how to write. Is that okay?"
He said this, but he couldn't help but back down in his heart.
Just when Chu Linyan thought that Lu Huaiyuan would not agree, the other party's slightly low voice reached his ears.
"come over."
Hearing this, Chu Linyan glanced at Lu Huaiyuan and walked over to him.
"Your Highness."
Lu Huaiyuan lowered his eyes slightly, said nothing, and just handed him the pen.
But after Chu Linyan took it, the other person's hand turned around and covered the back of his hand.
Chu Linyan was shocked.
But before he could speak, Lu Huaiyuan held his hand and began to write carefully on the paper.
Chu Linyan knew that this was against the rules, but he swallowed subconsciously and didn't know what to say for a moment.
As if sensing his absent-mindedness, Lu Huaiyuan stopped writing and said, "It was Ah Yan who spoke first, saying he wanted to learn."
"If you don't learn well, then copy your name five hundred times."
Five hundred times?
Chu Linyan was startled and said quickly, "Your Highness, I know I was wrong."
Lu Huaiyuan raised his eyes and glanced at him, but said nothing more. Instead, he continued to write with his head down.
Chu Linyan secretly looked at his expression, but in fact, he didn't know what he was thinking.
There was so little space in front of the desk that the distance between them could be said to be very close.
Chu Linyan was so close that he could smell the cold breath from the other person.
But to be honest, Chu Linyan actually can't write.
Therefore, he couldn't help but become a little indecisive now.
Huai Yanzhi turned his head slightly and stared at Lu Huaiyuan's cold profile, a little absent-minded.
He has seen everything the other party has done over the past few days and has a deep understanding of it.
Let him have enough food and clothes and no longer be bullied.
Find someone to teach him martial arts and how to read and write.
He also dabbled in various skills such as chess, playing the piano, and using hidden weapons.
It seemed that Lu Huaiyuan did not simply treat him as a servant, but the other party seemed to be training him.
Chu Linyan couldn't quite see through Lu Huaiyuan's intentions, but he could clearly see how well the other party treated him.
The past is like a dream, difficult to explore.
But everything before him was so beautiful that it made him feel dazed.
But how wonderful it would be if everything was really just this pure?
Thinking of this, Chu Linyan couldn't help but clench his fingers, as if he wanted to grab something.
But in the end, all he clenched tightly were his own fingertips.
[Ding, the target's blackening value is detected to be -11, and the current blackening value is 16. Please keep up the good work!]
The system's voice suddenly sounded, and Lu Huaiyuan turned his head to look at the person next to him.
But the moment he looked over, the other party had already looked away.
Lu Huaiyuan didn't notice anything unusual.
But when he saw Chu Linyan's serious expression, he couldn't help but smile.
-----------------
The next day was the first day of the new year.
Because Lu Huaiyuan claimed to be ill, he asked the palace servants to refuse visits from other people.
But his refusal could not withstand the enthusiasm of those who were interested.
"Brother Royal, Brother Royal."
The distance was so great that he couldn't even see the other person's figure by looking up, but the other person's loud voice had already reached the hall.
It is true that you hear the voice before you see the person.
Chu Linyan, who was standing next to Lu Huaiyuan, raised his head and looked for a moment before he saw the figure that appeared at the gate of the courtyard.
He blinked, carefully identified it, then lowered his head and said to Lu Huaiyuan: "Your Highness, that seems to be the Sixth Prince."
"Yes, I heard it."
Lu Huaiyuan put down the book he was holding and rubbed his head.
Judging from the noise the other party made just now, he probably started shouting as soon as he entered the gate of his East Palace.
Only his cheap sixth brother could do such a thing.
But I have to say, this is really a very loud voice.
Lu Huaiyuan sighed silently.
But by the time he sat up, the man had already run to the door of the hall.
"Brother, brother, are you in there?"
Lu Huaijin trotted over and his eyes suddenly lit up when he saw Lu Huaiyuan sitting in the hall.
"Brother, I knew you were here."
Lu Huaijin: "Just now those palace servants tried to stop me from coming over, but luckily I was smart."
He raised his chin proudly and grinned at Lu Huaiyuan, revealing two small canine teeth.
Qing Luo, who had finally caught up after hurrying, said, "Sixth Prince, it's not that we servants intend to stop you, it's that our prince needs to rest now."
Lu Huaijin said "Oh", then lowered his voice and said to Lu Huaiyuan: "Royal brother, let's talk quietly, but don't let anyone chase me away."
Lu Huaiyuan: “…”
His fingers paused, and he really wanted to lie back on his couch.
Lu Huaiyuan sighed again and couldn't help but complain to 2237.
[Hey, are you sure he's the one Lu Hao wants as his heir to the throne?]
What did Lu Hao see in him? His unique silliness?
Or is this what they call, fools have good fortune?
Lu Huaiyuan shrugged silently, indicating that he didn't quite understand.
Noticing his thoughts, 2237 couldn't help but defend Lu Huaijin.
[Host, I'm just trying to show my good relationship with you and want to get close to you. Please don't call me stupid, okay?]
[Besides, he was very steady and decent in front of Lu Hao, and his performance was very satisfactory to him.]
2237 paused and then added.
[Besides, you can question Lu Hao's character, but don't question his vision as an emperor.]
Hearing this, Lu Huaiyuan chuckled in his heart, but did not make any comment.
But as to whether you believe it or not, that is another matter.
After all, he felt that Lu Hao had problems with both his brain and character.
Although he just thought so, Lu Huaiyuan had no intention of driving Lu Huaijin away.
He waved to Qing Luo beside him, signaling him to go down first.
Lu Huaiyuan turned to look at Lu Huaijin and said, "Please sit down first."
Hearing this, Lu Huaijin smiled and sat down next to him.
"I knew you were the best, my brother."
Lu Huaiyuan's expression changed slightly, then he looked him up and down calmly and couldn't help but smile.
Two faces?
It's quite interesting.
He silently withdrew his gaze and said calmly, "Why are you here?"
Lu Huaijin: "Of course I want to wish my brother a happy new year."
After he finished speaking, he stood up solemnly and bowed to Lu Huaiyuan: "Royal brother, happy new year."
"After the New Year, I wish my brother peace and success in everything."
Lu Huaiyuan curled his lips and said, "Well, Happy New Year."
"I would like to borrow your auspicious words, Sixth Brother. I wish you everything goes well and you are happy and free from worries."
After he finished speaking, Lu Huaijin sat back in his previous seat with a smile and talked to him about what happened at the palace banquet yesterday.
Listening to the other party's vivid narration, Lu Huaiyuan did not feel impatient.
But after a while, he lowered his head slightly and couldn't help coughing a few times.
Seeing this, Chu Linyan, who was standing next to him, hurried forward and poured him a cup of hot tea.
When Chu Linyan saw Lu Huaijin's empty cup, he added more tea for him.
Lu Huaijin didn't say much, but looked at Lu Huaiyuan with an expression that could not hide his worry.
"Royal brother, are you okay? Or should we ask the imperial physician to come and see?"
Lu Huaiyuan waved his hand, drank the tea in the cup, and then slowly said, "It's okay."
"You know, this has been the case for many years. You don't need to worry or call a doctor."
Hearing this, Lu Huaijin frowned, obviously still worried.
But Lu Huaiyuan had already spoken, so it was not appropriate for him to intervene or do anything.
But when Lu Huaijin looked at Lu Huaiyuan, he saw a hint of fatigue between his eyebrows.
