When Jun Huailang passed the red seal, he was also taken aback by the thickness.

      Such a thick stack of silver bills, no matter how large the amount, is too amazing.

     

    "...What are you giving me so much for?" Jun Huailang made him frightened, and his words were a little floating.

    "Not much, New Year's money." Xue Yan said lightly.

    Jun Huailang was dumbfounded.

      He took one out of it at random, took it with the red envelope, and stuffed the rest into Xue Yan's hands.

    Xue Yan did not answer.

    "Not all my money, I still have it," he said.

    He wasn't lying. King Yan had no wife and no children. Since he was able to lead troops two years ago, King Yan even handed him the keys to his private treasury. Yan County wanted to raise soldiers and people, so naturally he was not short of money. When King Yan died, all the gold and silver in Yan land would be his.

    However, the Yanyun Iron Cavalry needs to be paid, and the dead soldiers brought back also need to be supported. So Xue Yan really doesn't have much money to spend on him, so he can only take out these.

    He returned to the palace, only the money he brought with him. He wanted to return a gift to Jun Huailang to repay the jade koi he gave him, and he was the only one who could afford this amount of money.

    Jun Huailang could not laugh or cry, so he gave the stack of silver notes to Jinbao.

    Although Jinbao hurts, how dare you take it? He hurriedly turned his hands behind his back and ducked back, wishing that he hadn't given birth to these two hands in his mother's womb.

    Jun Huailang had no choice but to threaten him.

    "If you don't answer, I'll be angry," he said. "I gave you a red seal, but it was just a wish to seek good luck. What did you take me for by paying me so much money?"

    Xue Yan was a little flustered when he heard what he said.

    Of course he didn't pay Jun Huailang. He just felt that it was too little to give, so he simply gave him what he could.

    Anyway, he was in the palace and had no place to spend money, and he never took it to heart. He only felt that this thing was cheap, and he couldn't come up with anything else for a while, so he had to give more.

    Jun Huailang saw that he was in a rare panic, and he couldn't bear it, but he still kept his face straight, and took this opportunity to put the silver note back into Xue Yan's hand.

    At this moment, he lowered his eyes and saw the amount of the silver note in his hand.

    …five thousand taels.

    Jun Huailang couldn't hold back, a little smile appeared on his face.

    He knew that Xue Yan was not short of money. After all, he was the only child under King Yan's knees, and in his previous life he could easily incorporate Yanyun's iron cavalry, who had already belonged to the Yanmenguan garrison. But he didn't expect that this man would be so sincere, and he would take out so much of his family's wealth just to make New Year's money for others.

    I don't know if His Royal Highness King Qin in a few years will know if he still has such a simple time.

    Jun Huailang held back a smile and reluctantly exchanged a smaller denomination from the large stack of silver notes in Xue Yan's hand.

    "That's enough, no matter how much you give me, the heart will be the same." After Jun Huailang accepted the red envelope, he persuaded Xue Yan.

    Xue Yan thought silently, how could it be the same.

    He put the pile of silver bills into Jinbao's hand, and said to Jun Huailang, "Wait for me."

    Speaking, he turned and entered the inner room.

    Jinbao stood on the spot, put away the banknotes, smiled awkwardly at Jun Huailang, and explained: "The master has confiscated the New Year's money, presumably because he does not understand the rules, let Your Highness, you laughed."

    Jun Huailang smiled and shook his head.

    How can it be said to be a joke.

    It has nothing to do with knowing the rules or not. Whether they know the rules or not, there are few people who can be so sincere, as if they took out their whole heart to look like others.

    Jun Huailang even felt that he had treated Xue Yan badly for a while.

    I only got along with Xue Yan out of sympathy and to protect my family. But now Xue Yan has easily handed over everything he owns to himself.

    On the contrary, Jun Huailang felt a little ashamed.

    Over there, after a while, Xue Yan came back. He walked up to Jun Huailang and raised his hand, holding something he didn't know what it was.

    "Reach out your hand." He heard Xue Yan say.

    Jun Huailang stretched out his hand, and a small object fell into his palm.

    Jun Huailang retracted his hand, and saw an animal tooth resting in his hand, with a small hole in the top, and a simple leather rope tied.

    "This is..." Jun Huailang looked at Xue Yan.

    This is the canine tooth of the first wolf he hunted a few years ago. At that time, the King of Yan ordered him to kill a wolf and return to his life. He pierced the wolf's chest with an arrow, but when he stepped forward, the wolf was not completely dead, and he jumped up to bite him. He struggled with the wolf for a long time, and finally cut the wolf's throat with a dagger.

    He dragged the wolf all the way back to the camp with blood on his face, and was rewarded by the King of Yan. He took off a wolf tooth and gave it to Xue Yan to keep it at all times.

    "I will let you kill wolves today. When you become an adult, there will be more and more ferocious prey to die under your blade." King Yan said. "You keep this tooth, just remember that no matter how ruthless your opponent is, as long as you fight with your life, you can't beat you."

    Since then, he has always carried it with him.

    This is not so much a memorial as it is a thought of Xue Yan. Every time he was hurt and the pain was unbearable, he would clench the tooth in his hand.

    The thoughts in my heart have nothing to do with others, that is, to endure the pain, so that it can be saved for another day, and the pain of today will be returned to the opponent a hundred times.

    He didn't know why he gave this object to Jun Huailang. Maybe it's just because, apart from those silver notes, this is the only thing he brought back from Yandai all the way.

    But when Jun Huailang took this thing in his hand, Xue Yan's thoughts changed a little.

     

    Xue Yan's voice was a little hoarse, and replied lightly: "It's a wolf tooth."

    After a pause, he added: "It's the wolf I hunted, the teeth in its mouth."

    After he finished speaking, he felt that this thing was cheap and a bit barbaric.

    But seeing Jun Huailang hearing this, Zhanyan smiled: "Right, you give me this, isn't it better than giving me a lot of money?"

     

    Xue Yan's heart began to heat.

    He heard Jun Huailang instructing him again: "You can't be like this again in the future. Put away your own property, and don't take it out for others."

    Xue Yan hummed lightly.

    He wouldn't give it to others, just wanted to give it to him.

    —

    When night falls, red lanterns are lit everywhere in the palace. The chariots and horses outside Xuanwu Gate were all nobles who entered the palace for banquets.

    The New Year's Eve Palace Banquet is still held in the Yongle Hall.

    This is the third time that Jun Huailang has been here since his rebirth. The memory of the first two times was not very good, but now the storm has finally calmed down, which can give him peace of mind for a while.

    Thinking so, Jun Huailang pursed her lips and smiled.

    He and Xue Yan led Jun Linghuan all the way to Yongle Hall. As soon as he walked to the front of the hall, Jun Huailang saw Jun Xiaowu waiting there.

    "Brother! Did you miss me!" From a distance, Jun Xiaowu waved at Jun Huailang.

    Seeing him, Jun Huailang laughed involuntarily. As soon as the three of the Jun family met, they naturally began to talk enthusiastically. Jun Xiaowu acted like a conjurer, taking out red packets one by one and stuffing them to Jun Linghuan, and he didn't forget to stuff one to Jun Huailang with a smile.

    "Brother, New Year's money!" Jun Xiaowu smiled at Jun Huailang.

    Jun Huailang gave him a light smile and reprimanded him: "Naughty, how can you give me a red envelope?"

    Jun Xiaowu Zhile: "Why can't I do it? My uncle paid me military salaries. I am richer than you now!"

    Xue Yan stood quietly by the side, looking at the three of them.

    This kind of enthusiasm and warmth developed from living together from childhood to adulthood cannot be disguised or deceived.

    Xue Yan knew very well that this was Jun Huailang's own younger brother. It was natural for them to be friendly, but Xue Yan couldn't stop the sourness in his heart. , making him a little anxious.

    He didn't care about Jun Huailang's intimacy with others, but just by listening to what they said between the lines, he could easily tell that they had lived together for many years.

    He wants to have this relationship with Jun Huailang that lasts for many years, just like the other party. But at the same time, he doesn't seem to want to be like Jun Xiaowu.

    It's just a brother, it doesn't seem close enough, not unique enough.

    He was tormented by the urge to want something, but he didn't know what he wanted.

    At this moment, he heard Jun Xiaowu ask: "Mother specifically asked me to ask you when you will go home. This is a big New Year's Day, there are two less people in the family, but It's a lot quieter, I'm not used to it."

    Xue Yan paused, his eyes fell on Jun Huailang's face calmly.

    He actually forgot that he couldn't even live with Jun Huailang for a long time, the other party was only staying overnight.

    Jun Huailang did not notice Xue Yan's changing mood. Hearing this, he laughed, raised his hand and patted Jun Xiaowu's forehead: "Aren't you used to staying at Yumen Pass for three years? I think it's the lively army in the army, and you don't want to be happy?"

    Jun Xiaowu covered his forehead and laughed.

    Jun Huailang added: "My aunt asked me if she wanted me to stay longer. I'll have to wait for spring before I can go back."

    Jun Xiaowu nodded: "Alright, in spring, I'll take you to the suburbs for a horse-riding outing."

    Jun Huailang smiled and nodded.

    Seeing that it was getting late, Jun Huailang called Jun Xiaowu to go in first. Jun Xiaowu pulled Jun Linghuan, who was beside Jun Huailang, into his arms, and said, "Okay, I'm going to look for Zengniang and take Linghuan with me. Mother thinks she's thinking too much, so I'll let Linghuan go today. Follow her."

    Jun Huailang nodded in agreement.

    After Jun Xiaowu took Jun Linghuan away, Jun Huailang turned around and saw Xue Yan standing there in a trance, wondering what he was thinking.

    "Five Highness?" Jun Huailang called to him.

    Xue Yan replied lightly: "Well. Are you going in?"

    Jun Huailang smiled and nodded, walking side by side with him.

    "Originally, my aunt said, let me take Ling Huan to watch the fireworks today." Jun Huailang said while walking. "It's a pity, I'm afraid it won't be my turn today. I wonder if the Fifth Highness will give me this face?"

    Xue Yan turned to look at him, and met Jun Huailang's warm eyes with a smile.

    "I know there is a corner tower, it's very quiet, and it's a good place to watch the fireworks. Will your fifth highness come with me?"

    Xue Yan turned his eyes away and nodded lightly.

     

    The person in front of him is a star in the sky, he looks up and can't touch it, but he wants to keep this star by his side forever.

    Even now, the star was only briefly passing over his head.
