After returning from a victorious battle, the female general Li Chang'an is proposed to by the Regent within days! "General! It's bad! The Regent has blocked our gates with betrothal gi...
As night fell, according to the usual routine, Li Changsheng had to run five laps around the training grounds of the soldiers in the barracks before returning to wash up and rest.
Moreover, since Li Chang'an returned today, Li Changsheng dared not be negligent. Usually, he needed others to urge him, but today he went by himself very conscientiously.
At this moment, Li Chang'an also came out of his tent, thinking that he should find Li Changsheng for evening training, but he immediately saw the small figure running laps around the field.
Li Chang'an stood silently to the side, watching the little guy's hard-running figure, lost in thought.
After a while, Li Changsheng finished running five laps and was about to go back when he saw Li Chang'an leaning against the railing looking at him.
"How are you feeling? Are you tired?"
Li Chang'an quickly went over and took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from Li Changsheng's forehead.
Looking at the child's slightly flushed face and listening to his slightly rapid breathing, Li Chang'an felt a little heartache and wondered if he was being too harsh on the child.
However, she quickly put the idea aside! Since she had brought the child to the military camp, she had to train him well. Physical training was essential; otherwise, if he didn't have a strong physique, he would inevitably fall ill from overwork as quickly as Emperor Xingchang when he became emperor and worked day and night.
"Fortunately, I could only run three laps before, but now I can run five."
Li Changsheng wiped the sweat from his face, smiled at Li Chang'an, and then proudly puffed out his small chest.
"Good boy, once you've mastered the basics, Vice General Sun will teach you martial arts."
Witnessing her younger brother's growth, Li Chang'an felt very gratified. She couldn't help but reach out and touch Li Changsheng's soft hair, and suddenly felt that bringing him to the military camp to personally teach him was the right decision.
After taking care of Li Changsheng's washing up, it was already night.
After a long day of travel, Li Chang'an felt quite tired and wanted to go to bed early, planning to return to the capital the next day.
Feng Beichuan, under the pretext that it was too dark to see clearly and for safety reasons, naturally stayed overnight in the military camp.
After taking off his outer robe, Li Chang'an wore only an inner garment and let his hair down in front of the mirror.
"Chang'an! Chang'an!"
As soon as Li Chang'an reached the bedside, he heard someone calling his name from outside the tent.
She knew that voice all too well.
She was just about to grab a piece of clothing when Feng Beichuan burst in before she could even put it on.
"Chang'an, where am I going to sleep?"
As soon as he entered, Feng Beichuan immediately noticed that Li Chang'an was only wearing an undergarment. He quickly turned his face away to avoid it, but then realized that it was really impolite of him to barge into someone's tent so late at night.
Li Chang'an casually put on his clothes, then strode up to Feng Beichuan and punched him in the chest.
"Next time, you're not allowed to come in without my permission!"
Seeing the woman's slightly angry expression, Feng Beichuan quickly nodded and looked at her apologetically, "Yes, I'm sorry, I just forgot..."
Li Chang'an rolled his eyes at him, but didn't dwell on the matter any further. He then said, "You can sleep in Vice General Sun's tent for now. His tent is the second one to the left of mine."
Although Li Chang'an had arranged a temporary resting place for him, Feng Beichuan showed no intention of leaving. He stood there for a moment, and a strange light suddenly appeared in his dark eyes, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.
"Chang'an, how about I just spend the night in your tent?"
Are you trying to bargain with me?
Li Chang'an couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
This guy is so blatantly indecent! A man and a woman alone in a tent, is that a joke?
"Oh, don't get me wrong. I have this problem: I feel itchy all over when I sleep in a bed that someone else has slept in. It's okay, I can sleep on the floor here..."
"Get out! If you don't want to sleep in Deputy General Sun's bed, then go sleep on the floor in his tent!"
Li Chang'an gave him no room for negotiation.
"The floor in his tent is definitely not as clean as yours, and I'm sure I'll still be itchy all over..."
Although Li Chang'an refused firmly, Feng Beichuan was still persistent and came up with another reason that sounded quite absurd.
"In that case, you can sleep in my tent, and I'll sleep in Vice General Sun's tent?"
Li Chang'an, with a calm expression, offered another solution: in short, she would never share a tent with Feng Beichuan today.
Feng Beichuan was initially delighted when he heard Li Chang'an say that he could stay in her tent, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, the joy on his face immediately vanished.
He would rather sleep in Deputy General Sun's tent himself than let Li Chang'an sleep there.
"Forget it, I'll just make do in his tent for now!"
Having said that, Feng Beichuan prepared to leave, somewhat disappointed.
Just then, a childish voice came from outside the tent.
"Sister, are you asleep? May I come in?"
It was Li Changsheng's voice.
"Come in!"
After saying that, Li Chang'an couldn't help but glare at Feng Beichuan beside him, thinking to himself that even a child knows better manners than this guy!
A small head peeked in. Li Changsheng looked at it and saw Feng Beichuan. Their eyes met, but neither of them spoke.
"Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Li Chang'an's words were full of concern.
"I couldn't sleep and wanted to come out and check things out, then I saw your tent was still lit up, so I came over. Hey, what's the Regent doing here?"
Li Changsheng remained calm, then changed the subject as if he had just noticed Feng Beichuan was also in the room.
"So the Imperial Sister and the Regent have such a good relationship..."
Before the two could reply, Li Changsheng, that little devil, said something to himself as if he were deep in thought, and what he said sounded a little strange.
"What nonsense are you spouting, child..."
"Why are you speaking such obvious truths!"
Feng Beichuan interrupted Li Chang'an with a grin, then gave her a meaningful look before turning to Li Changsheng: "I was just discussing with your elder sister about staying the night..."
Li Chang'an immediately felt his temples throbbing. This guy really could say anything; wasn't he afraid of corrupting the children?
"Really? You're going to live together?"
Li Changsheng was so shocked that his eyes widened in surprise.
"That's not true, don't listen to his nonsense!"
While trying to force a smile to explain to Li Changsheng, Li Chang'an secretly pinched Feng Beichuan's waist hard.
The man immediately groaned, his face turning bright red with pain.
“Let him sleep in the tent next door, which is occupied by Deputy General Sun.”
Fearing that the child might misunderstand him, Li Chang'an quickly added another sentence.
