The Rebirth Of A White Robe Man: I'll Follow You This Time (BL)

0When Shao Yin saw that his third son wasn't speaking and had an abnormally flushed face and vacant eyes despite the noise of their arrival, he couldn't help but speak in a barely restrained but calm voice for his second son to take his third brother away.     0

"Yes, Father."      

Shao Chonglin quickly took off his robe to gently wrap it around his younger brother's body. Just looking at his face, he quickly carried him and rushed back home in order to check the medicine his younger brother was given.     

While at the same time, Shao Cai quietly picked up the red robes fallen on the floor, knowing fully well how much his third brother cherishes all the objects given by his friend. He followed them quickly, leaving their father and first brother to take care of the rest of the people.     

Especially the officials who had followed along and witnessed the entire situation. Their presence would also make it easier to deal with the people behind the kidnapping event.     

"Third Brother... What the hell happened?"     

Shao Chonglin couldn't help but whisper while rushing back to the Shao residence while riding on a horse. Although, he understood that his younger brother couldn't answer his question because of the difficult situation, and plausibly wouldn't explain why it is different from the plan that they had discussed with each other.     

During the time when the Shao family was going crazy looking for their missing family member, most of the high-rank aristocrat families were also quickly informed about what was happening, especially the people who had their own spies inside the Shao residence.     

At the same time, the Ministry of Justice was quickly alarmed in the middle of the night by the chaos transpiring in the Chang Capital. Even the Emperor resting in one of his harem places was alerted.     

He even thoughtfully ordered one of the skilled Imperial Physicians to quickly go to the Shao residence after learning what had happened.     

Even though the Emperor was a romantic person, he personally loathed the fact of forcing people to do the deed. And it made him extremely angry and disgusted, especially after learning that it happened to the third son of the Great General he unwaveringly believed and trusted.     

Thus the entire situation was treated seriously.     

Basically, in the midst of the first day of New Year, the entire Chang Capital was stirred in chaos by the Shao Cheng kidnapping incident.     

And while Shao Yan had beaten his cousin and the daring maidservant half to death, Shao Yin with the help of the Ministry of Justice had gone to investigate the entire situation thoroughly.     

Especially, when after just an hour of careful investigation there were countless pieces of evidence left behind, pointing to the Zhang family's involvement in the abduction of the third son of the Shao Family.     

As for the movements of the traitors in the Shao Family, Shao Cheng had personally made sure to prepare the evidence which other people could only find after a deep investigation. It was perfectly designed for important officials after considering the importance the Emperor will show when it comes to his father's situation.     

Especially when the Shao is also one of the important aristocratic families in power, so they are bound to be seriously treated with great care regarding the kidnapping incident, even if the Emperor didn't show a deeper concern because of some troubles regarding the power distribution situation.     

Although it looked like Shao Cheng spent most of his time with Ren Yuan, but actually, he had always calculated and measured every single step regarding the plan in his mind, particularly when considering the unanticipated circumstances in the midst of the entire situation.     

So, with an unbelievably detailed plan with various calculations, predictions, and considerations, Shao Cheng already knew what he could do with the power and even with people he had encountered early in his new life.     

He completely made sure that there would be no one capable of even giving birth to suspicions about the entire situation being manipulated in the dark. After all, it was always safer for him to remain hidden and unknown in their enemies' eyes, completely making it easier for him to make his move.     

Basically, the Zhang family's hidden movements targeting the Shao family with malicious intentions from the past few years while outwardly displaying familiar intimacy had been completely exposed.     

And in just a matter of a day, the Emperor reduced the Zhang family's power, causing their rank to lower down to the bottom while taking the military power from their hands, which also made the Emperor joyful.     

After all, he wasn't foolish and ignorant enough to not notice how their power had been growing stronger over the past few years, especially when there are also people behind the Zhang family.     

Besides between the Shao and Zhang, the Emperor wasn't crazy to easily disregard the Shao Family by choosing the Zhang, for which he doesn't even have enough confidence to secretly decree a serious order.     

The loyalty of the Shao was far more trustworthy than any families out there, so the Emperor would always prefer them, or rather trust the Great General characters, which have already displayed great contribution along with the determination of always protecting the peace of the Chang Empire.     

Nonetheless, the Emperor also gave some power in the hands of the Mo Family, replacing the people of the Zhang family in the military ranks, after all, it wasn't always good to show too much favor to the Shao family since he still recognizes how it will lead them to certain trouble, especially producing jealousy.     

In the Emperor's eyes, when treating the ministers and aristocratic families with important positions and power in the Empire are the same kind of circumstances when he deals with the countless excellent wives he has in the harem.     

Especially after the miserable experience of the Emperor when making the great mistake in the past of showing a certain special favor to one of his countless wives, which had almost broken the balance of unity in the association of his wives.     

He might not have the talent to skillfully govern the Empire to greatness, but at least, the idea of trying to balance everything to lessen the trouble and problem was something he has greatly learned based on experience alone rather than talent to govern the Empire.     

As for what happened to the two culprits who were daring enough to kidnap the third son of the Shao family to do the unspeakable things, one was directly put to death since she was just a mere servant while the other was sentenced to prison with his hopes of entering the officialdom in the future completely cut off.     

Basically, even if there is a chance for the young man to get out of the prison after many years, there isn't any future left for him anymore, which has caused Shao Geming and Zhang Lilu in deep despair, after all, they were counting on their son the most for a wealthy and authoritative future.     

Of course, the entire result of the chaos happening just after a few hours of the New Year Celebration was known in the entire Chang Capital, particularly when everything was seriously investigated and the various evidence was proved to be genuine.     

As for now, Shao Cheng was quickly taken back into the residence and instantly examined by their personal doctor, followed by the Imperial Physician who had quickly arrived in their residence after being ordered by the Emperor himself.     

And everyone's faces had become grim after knowing what kind of medicine Shao Cheng was given, especially the effects, and results that there was nothing they could do with the aphrodisiac.     

Either wait for the effect to disappear or endure for a few hours while the Doctors tried to make the remedy for it, or simply let the drugged person solve it with another person in the simplest way.     

In the heavy and oppressive atmosphere, Shao Cheng finally showed a reaction, raising his head up before turning in a certain direction while various thoughts flashed in his mind despite the heavy pressure because of the aphrodisiac effect.     

"Third Brother?"     

"Cousin?"     

"Son?"     

Shao Cheng simply ignored the people's surprised and confused voices before stumbling outside the door with his burning gaze focused in a certain direction with heavy gasps while slightly waving away his second brother who was trying to stop him.     

… I already told you to not come no matter what happened...!!!     

Despite how uneasy, worried, and flustered everyone was, they still followed the young man outside before watching with wide-eyes when they saw him grab one of the maidservants waiting outside the room, especially after hearing the shocking words he had spoken.     

"... come... to... gasp... my p-place..."     

"...!!!"     

... You want to solve the medicine with another person??? How do we explain this to Ren Yuan? Son/Brother, you should remain firm and committed in your relationship until the end!     

Unlike the usually cold and indifferent pair of sapphire eyes that Shao Cheng usually displays, the beautiful pupils have become blazingly bright with uncontrollable desire.     

Thus when Shao Cheng gazed upon the problematic Ren Yuan who was disguised as a female maidservant of all people, he was able to easily carry the man towards his courtyard without waiting for a reply after being stupefied by the look on his eyes.     

Since you came here... you have to help me out!     

Although Shao Cheng had taken an aphrodisiac medicine, it wasn't the type that would make a person completely soft and weak, completely letting another person do whatever he wants.     

It was the type to make a person go crazy with desire and completely becoming the active person while causing the mind to completely lose its reason.     

So Shao Cheng was able to easily carry the dumbfounded Ren Yuan back to his courtyard, leaving everyone to bewilderedly watch his figure swiftly disappear, which in their eyes, appeared to be unable to wait anymore in order to do the deed with the person in his arms.     

"Little Cheng!!!"
