In front of the apricot garden, a group of children of dignitaries gathered in twos and threes. Some were talking loudly, some were whispering softly, and there were also lewd laughter.
Kong Yan's appearance didn't attract much attention. At most, it attracted some attention when he first arrived.
He was very famous, but not many people had actually seen him.
Chang 'an was a place where dignitaries gathered. Even the people in the circle of these second-generation heirs might not recognize each other.
After all, in some noble families, there was a huge difference in status between the eldest son and the rest of the children.
Kong Yan leaned on a pillar with a smile. He folded his hands into his sleeves and lazily watched the group of descendants of the nobles communicate.
"What an enviable life, living a carefree life and waiting for death.”
Kong Yan sighed inwardly. After looking at it for a while, he closed his eyes and planned to take a nap.
" The King of Shu has arrived..." After some time, a voice rang out in Kong Yan's ears.
With his eyes half-open, he found that all the noble children around him had knelt down.
Kong Yan closed his eyes again.
"Hey, the King of Shu is here!"
Kong Yan felt the hem of his Confucian robe being rudely pulled down.
"The King of Shu is here!"
With another low shout, Kong Yan felt that the other party was twisting his calf.
His eyelids twitched. The other party's kindness was clearly in the wrong place.
"Bang!"
Kong Yan stretched out his other leg and kicked the young man in embroidered clothes who kept reminding him.
"F * ck!"
The young man in embroidered clothes who was kicked directly cursed.
Kong Yan opened his eyes a little and realized that his kick seemed to have made intimate contact with the other party's cheek. He couldn't help but cough dryly.
At this moment, he could not admit it no matter what.
"I'm not Cao Cao, but I can kick people in my dreams.”
Kong Yan narrowed his eyes and was wary of the young man he had just kicked.
At this moment, the King of Shu arrived!
"Greetings, Your Highness the King of Shu." Everyone knelt down and shouted.
The King of Shu was also the former King of Han, Li Ke.
Li Ke's gaze swept past and finally stopped on Kong Yan.
There was no other way. Everyone else had knelt down, and only this one was leaning against the pillar, pretending to sleep.
"It's him." A eunuch behind Li Ke said in a low voice.
Li Ke nodded slightly and smiled,"Get up, there's no need to be so polite."”
If it was during normal times, perhaps not many people would be willing to be so polite. But today was different. The Empress 'birthday banquet was a formal occasion.
Everyone stood up and Li Ke walked straight to where Kong Yan was.
" Kid, you're still pretending to be asleep?!" The youth in embroidered clothes who had warned Kong Yan to get kicked said fiercely.
The others also looked at Kong Yan.
"Which family?" Someone asked curiously.
"Young Master Kong." Li Ke came to Kong Yan and called out with a smile.
Kong Yan made a soft sound.
“……”
Li Ke's expression stiffened slightly, and his voice grew louder,""Young Master Kong."
"Your Highness, I can prove that he was faking it!”The youth who was kicked by Kong Yan sneered.
Li Ke maintained a smile on his face. He could naturally tell that the other party was pretending to be asleep.
"How do you prove it?" Li Ke pretended to be curious.
"Just a kick!" The youth sneered.”
Kong Yan was speechless.
"Who woke up first? I know that in my life."
Kong Yan slowly opened his eyes, stretched and yawned. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he smiled warmly and asked with interest,"
"What are you all looking at?"
"I am Li Ke. Greetings, Young Master Kong.”Li Ke smiled in response and performed a Confucian etiquette.
Kong Yan nodded and cupped his hands in return.""Greetings, Young Master Li."
"You're really not polite." The youth who was kicked snorted.
"May I know who you are?" Kong Yan looked at the young man, curious about who he had kicked.
"He is Li Dejiang, the second son of General Li Jing.”Li Ke said with a smile.
"Oh, Young Master Li too." Kong Yan nodded and asked," Young Masters Li, why are you looking for me?”
Li Dejiang looked at Li Ke and felt a little guilty. Although both of them had the surname Li, Li Ke and Li Ke were very different.
Li Ke didn't mind. His smile was still like a spring breeze,""I'm here to thank Young Master Kong."
Kong Yan rubbed his nose and thought to himself, You're already thanking me the most by not showing up.
He didn't think that Li Shi Min's promotion of Li Ke had much to do with him, nor did he think that Li Ke really came to thank him.
"Are you the richest man, Kong Yan?" Cheng Chumo asked curiously.
"Greetings, Young Master Cheng." Kong Yan replied with a smile.
"You know me?" Cheng Chumo was curious.
" Young Master Cheng, you've just made a name for yourself in the Apricot Garden," Kong Yan said with a smile." It's hard not to know you."”
As he spoke, Kong Yan looked at Qin Huaiyu who was beside Cheng Chumo and cupped his hands,"I believe this should be Qin Huaiyu, Young Master Qin.”
Qin Huaiyu nodded with a smile and cupped his hands in return."In the past two days, Young Master Kong's name has been like thunder in my ears.”
Kong Yan looked at the person beside Qin Huaiyu and greeted him. Then, they got to know each other.
The smile on Li Ke's face gradually stiffened.
"Your Highness the King of Shu, he pretended to be asleep just now.”Li Dejiang spoke at an inappropriate time.
Everyone was not stupid and could tell that Kong Yan was hiding from Li Ke.
However, this method of dodging still made many people's hearts skip a beat.
In the end, Kong Yan felt a little helpless. Some of the sons of the rich and powerful that he had yet to get to know all retreated behind Li Ke.
Li Ke revealed a smile again. Just as he was about to go forward, his expression stiffened again.
"Are you Du He, the son of Minister Du?" Kong Yan looked at the young man in embroidered clothes who had just gotten to know him.
"Cough cough cough…"
At this moment, many people started coughing, trying hard not to laugh.
"Yes." Du He's face darkened.
"Oh, how's Minister Du's health?" Kong Yan asked curiously.
"Very good." Du He gave a fake smile.
"I know the divine doctor Sun Simiao. If anything happens to Minister Du's body, you can come to me.”Kong Yan patted Du He's shoulder and said kindly.
He vaguely remembered whether Du Ruhui died of illness in the third or fourth year of Zhenguan.
Du He's face darkened. If it weren't for the fact that the situation wasn't right, his fist would have already hit her.
Kong Yan shook his head and looked at the person beside Du He.
"My father's health is very good. He doesn't have a problem drinking wine or eating meat.”This person spoke directly.
"Uh…I wanted to ask which family are you from?”Kong Yan pondered for a while and asked.
"Yuchi!" Yuchi Baolin's face darkened.
"Oh, so it's Young Master Yuchi. I'm sorry, I just met too many people and forgot Young Master's name.”Kong Yan said apologetically.
Yuchi Baolin put on a fake smile and pointed at Li Ke, asking,""Do you still remember the name of that young master?”
Kong Yan was speechless.
He had underestimated this rich kid!
Li Ke sighed and said with a hint of bitterness,"BenGong came here only to thank Young Master Kong, why should Young Master Kong reject people thousands of miles away?”
" Cough cough…" Kong Yan coughed heavily.
"I'm a straight man, and I won't be gay!”
Kong Yan said righteously.
"Straight man? Are you gay?"
Li Ke was stunned.
The others were also dumbfounded, indicating that they did not understand at all.
" I'm a normal man," Kong Yan explained weakly." I'm definitely not as good as Long Yang!" Therefore, Your Highness, you should give up on this idea!”
Kong Yan's tone turned sharp as he spoke, as if he would rather die than submit.

PS: I've been writing for two to three years. This is the first time I've been persuaded by a reader to be a eunuch. I feel very complicated.
I can only say…you should give up on this idea.
I, a straight man of steel, will never be a eunuch!!!
