Chapter 212 Tattoo

"City Lord..."

Lin Yuesha realized her aura was off and withdrew her fighting stance, weakly saying, "The rules in Daqi and Sishui City are different. Women care a lot about their reputation. Boys and girls must not sit together after the age of seven. I..."

Yuwen Kun interrupted Lin Yuesha with a smile, saying, "I know this, so everything will be done according to the rules of the Great Qi."

He saw the girl naked, so naturally he has to take responsibility.

Therefore, Yuwen Kun decided to make the young girl his city lord's wife.

"What?"

Lin Yuesha stared in disbelief. Had she misheard?

"Miss Lin, are you so happy you've gone mad?"

Granny Wu quickly gave Lin Yuesha a meaningful look. The position of City Lord's wife was coveted by many, but the City Lord was aloof from women; the few who had offered themselves to him had all been rejected, and no one dared to covet his beauty anymore.

And so, this lowly woman from the Great Qi actually caught the city lord's eye; a fine cabbage was wasted on a pig!

Of course, the city lord is as common as cabbage, need I say more?

"The city lord intends to marry you as the city lord's wife of Sishui City."

This is a position second only to the emperor, above tens of thousands of people, truly a meteoric rise to power.

Granny Wu never expected that the city lord couldn't resist the cliché of a hero saving a damsel in distress. Sure enough, the little girl took a knife for him, and he took it to heart.

Lin Yuesha was very upset; she was not fortunate enough to enjoy it.

If she were to be with that pervert, she would spend the rest of her life being tormented, a never-ending torment.

These days, who doesn't want to live a long life!

"But Lord City Lord, you are so high and mighty, I..."

Lin Yuesha was interrupted by Yuwen Kun before she could finish speaking, "I never repeat myself."

The little girl is quite interesting; it's good to have her by my side.

In recent days, scouts have been sending back messages that Daqi has set up a smokescreen, waiting for him to send troops to take the bait, and then taking the opportunity to attack Sishui City.

After considering it for a few days, Yuwen Kun realized that for the sake of caution, it would be better to hold back for now and find an opportunity to retreat to Sishui City.

After several busy days and making arrangements for the retreat, Yuwen Kun met with Granny Wu and heard that the maidservant who had been serving him was missing. He then realized that he had neglected the little girl these past few days.

"But I am still young. In the Great Qi, only women can get married after they reach the age of 14."

Lin Yuesha wiped away a cold sweat, hoping to fool Blue Eyes, but it was destined to fail.

"Coming of age?"

Many barbarian girls marry at the age of thirteen or fourteen, but women in the Great Qi have to wait until they reach the age of fifteen. Yuwen Kun calculated that there were still two years left.

"Two years is fine."

Yuwen Kun readily agreed, and Lin Yuesha almost cried. Could this be the benefactor the old monk had spoken of? Indeed, the blue-eyed man's identity was indeed quite valuable.

Others get married when they reach marriageable age, but she can't; she has to wait until she's eighteen.

From thirteen to eighteen, there are still five years.

"What bullshit about fate? Your fate is determined by the city lord."

Yuwen Kun scoffed at the fortune teller's words. When he was born, a wandering monk said he was a jinx, which made his parents dislike him.

But so what!

He murdered his father to seize the throne; this city of Sishui is his, and so will the Great Qi Dynasty.

Since the fortune teller said he was a jinx, wouldn't he deserve the title if he didn't kill a few more people?

Lin Yuesha lowered her head and dared not speak again. Anyway, she was someone who wanted to escape, so she didn't want to argue with that pervert.

"You are my man, so how can I leave my mark?"

Yuwen Kun stroked his chin, his smile sending chills down one's spine.

"How about we make a chastity belt?"

Granny Wu gave a bad idea, saying that she had heard that some families in Daqi did this, and that they were particularly concerned about a woman's chastity.

Although the rules in Sishui City are relatively lenient, the city lord's wife is destined to be extraordinary.

Lin Yuesha silently swallowed a mouthful of blood; Granny Wu's move was truly ruthless.

"No one will dare to touch my people."

Yuwen Kun was very confident about this. He preferred leaving a mark on the little girl's body to a chastity belt.

Body markings? Lin Yuesha wanted to cry even more. Was it torture or abuse?

“Lord, the scar on my chest is already a permanent mark.”

Lin Yuesha hurriedly pledged her loyalty, saying that the mark was left to save someone, so wasn't that proof enough?

"I've got it."

Yuwen Kun gave Wu Mama a few instructions, and Wu Mama went out. A moment later, she came back with a tray.

Lin Yuesha noticed needles and something resembling dye on it.

"Little girl, come here. Didn't you dislike the scar? Then just cover it up."

After Yuwen Kun finished speaking, he pulled Lin Yuesha in front of him despite her resistance.

He wanted to complete a masterpiece, a perfect masterpiece. The little girl would bear his mark, and from now on, she would belong to him.

Jiang Baozhu tried to stop her, but Lin Yuesha shook her head. She thought bitterly that she should just consider it as keeping up with modern trends and getting a tattoo.

Hopefully, the blue-eyed craftsmanship is good and it won't be too ugly.

"Don't worry, these dyes are all made from the juice of the rosebud flower, and they are non-toxic."

As Yuwen Kun spoke, he focused on tattooing. Although Lin Yuesha was in pain, she gritted her teeth and endured it, hoping that he would hurry up and that she would suffer less.

After about half an hour, Yuwen Kun finally stopped.

Lin Yuesha looked down and was instantly stunned. She thought it was a terrible sight, but in reality, apart from the redness and swelling, the flower on her chest was extremely beautiful.

"This is the rose of our Sishui City."

Granny Wu proudly explained that because Sishui City is covered in ice and snow for most of the year, only the rose of Sharon blooms most beautifully in winter.

"Isn't it a plum blossom?"

Lin Yuesha wanted to touch it, but Yuwen Kun stopped her, saying that the tattoo would take at least half an hour to complete.

“Plum blossoms are something only common people like; they are not worthy of the city lord's wife’s status.”

Granny Wu explained, and then suggested, "City Lord, Miss Lin is from the Great Qi and doesn't understand the Man language. There might be some obstacles in communication in the future. How about having someone teach her the Man language?"

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Lin Yuesha will be married into Sishui City sooner or later, so she needs to learn the local language first.

"Alright, then let's find her a teacher who speaks a foreign language."

Yuwen Kun emphasized that it would be best to find a woman with a gentle personality, since young girls sometimes seem a bit clumsy.

Granny Wu glanced at Lin Yuesha with envy, jealousy, and hatred. "That lowly woman from Daqi is so lucky! When has the city lord ever cared about a woman? She's finally come to her senses!"

Lin Yuesha didn't even have the right to resist; she was just arranged to be like this again.

"You are my woman, everyone is under your command, and whatever you say goes."

Before leaving, Yuwen Kun admired his work one last time, and he was very satisfied.

Let's be more lenient with the little girl and see what tricks she can pull.

"The arts of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting are a constraint for the women of Sishui City. Starting tomorrow, you will be responsible for my food and daily life."

Yuwen Kun instructed Lin Yuesha that she should at least be responsible for grilling the meat.

"But aren't I the future city lord's wife? Do I still need to do chores?"

Lin Yuesha's mood was like a rollercoaster, fluctuating wildly. She couldn't understand Blue Eyes' thoughts at all; this guy changed too quickly.
