Chapter 305: No Hooking Up
Xiao Ning glanced at Shang Xi on the side, then clasped his fists towards Zhang Ye.
"The general is thoughtful."
Zhang Ye quickly responded, "No, no, no."
After a pause, he added: "It's all thanks to Your Highness."
Xiao Ning smiled and said, "I will thank him later."
Zhangye: “…”
After entering the city, people stood on both sides of the street, shouting and tears in their eyes.
A girl threw a handkerchief at Xiao Ning.
Which girl wouldn't like a young general who is full of vigor and strength?
Xiao Ning subconsciously reached out and caught the girls' handkerchiefs.
Let their joy not be in vain.
In Xiao Ning's eyes, this is no different from chasing stars.
She even smiled at them.
But in Shang Xi's opinion, Xiao Ning, as a married man, dared to openly take the handkerchief of a little girl on the street, which clearly showed that he had impure intentions.
She's even impotent, yet she's still flirting with other women!
Shang Xi strode forward, firmly grasped Xiao Ning's hand, and interlocked their fingers.
Then he declared his sovereignty to the girls: "He already has a husband, and I am his husband."
Girls: “……???!”
This sentence made the girls' CPU burn out.
The land in the northwest is barren and everyone is busy making a living. Girls have never seen the idea of a homosexual relationship.
Their mouths opened into an O shape, staring blankly at the two people's clasped hands.
My mind was filled with the words: "He already has a partner, and I am his husband..."
So, men can get married to men?
So amazing!
They looked at the handsome and brave young general, and then at the frail, elegant, and handsome young man beside him...
Slowly close your O-shaped mouth.
Strange knowledge got into the girls' heads in a strange way.
The girls looked back and forth between the two men, finally settling on their clasped hands.
Actually, these two people... are quite a good match.
It only took a few breaths to go from being difficult to understand to gradually accepting it.
The girls looked at the two of them with burning eyes.
Xiao Ning was a little speechless.
She didn't understand why Shang Xi was always so jealous.
The little girls probably worship and admire her more...
She took these handkerchiefs just for the sake of convenience, but it gave the girls a place to go to express their joy.
Just like chasing stars, they would be super happy if their favorite stars accepted their letters.
Xiao Ning hopes that these lively and bright girls will always be happy.
After declaring his sovereignty, Shang Xi saw the girls' expressions change in a few breaths, and finally turned into ambiguous smiles.
Only then am I satisfied.
He turned his head, leaned close to Xiao Ning's ear, and said fiercely: "Don't flirt with people anymore!"
Xiao Ning rolled his eyes at him.
Shang Xi: “…”
Zhangye, who was walking on the other side, felt so embarrassed.
Who among my family members understands that the master I am loyal to and the general I admire is Gai!
They are covered!
And show affection in front of him...
Zhangye, who is nearly 40 years old and not interested in men, does not understand and does not want to respect.
At this moment, he just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
So that your ears will no longer be poisoned.
Finally arrived at the Governor's Mansion.
Zhangye's wife is in her hometown, and the one who helps him with housework now is his new concubine whom he married after coming to Cangzhou.
She is also capable and prepared a delicious meal in a short time.
"Your Highness, General, please take a seat!"
Xiao Ning originally wanted to be polite, but Shang Xi walked straight to the high seat and sat down.
Xiao Ning: “…”
She had no choice but to follow him and sit next to him.
Then he looked at Shang Xi and said, "You're quite good at putting on a show."
Shang Xi picked up the wine glass on the table, tilted his head back and drank it in one gulp.
The wine was spicy and he leaned over and coughed several times.
Then he looked up, with slightly red eyes.
He put down his wine glass and smiled at Xiao Ning, "If you don't do it now, you won't be able to do it later."
Xiao Ning didn't think much about it when she heard it. She just thought that he meant that after leaving Cangzhou, she would become her "prisoner".
"That's hard to say."
If she becomes emperor in the future, he, as the emperor's husband, can continue to act arrogantly.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ning couldn't help but laugh.
It will definitely scare him then.
Shang Xi couldn't help but pick up the wine glass again and fill it for himself.
When he was about to drink, Xiao Ning stopped him and said, "Northwest wine is very strong. If you get drunk, you will be the one who suffers."
Upon hearing this, Shang Xi paused holding the wine glass, then put the glass down.
Then he said to Xiao Ning, "You should drink less. I have something important to tell you when we get back later."
Xiao Ning looked at him, "What's the matter? Why are you so serious?"
Shang Xi didn't reply.
Xiao Ning didn't ask any more questions, as he would know the answer soon anyway.
The welcoming banquet was very lively.
The songs and dances in the Northwest are very different from those in Shengjing.
Very powerful.
It makes people feel the vigorous vitality.
During the meal, Zhangye asked about Xiao Ning's campaign against the Huns.
Xiao Ning told him everything.
Among them naturally was Princess Huaxun, who sacrificed her blood on the military flag.
Everyone at the table was shocked when they heard this.
Her Royal Highness the Princess committed suicide on the battlefield to boost the morale of the troops.
"That princess..."
"Where is the body now?"
Someone asked in a hoarse voice.
Xiao Ning said: "The princess's coffin is now placed in the military camp."
"Her last wish was to return home."
"I have arranged for people to escort her coffin back to Beijing and send her home."
"We would like to go and pay our respects to Her Royal Highness the Princess tomorrow. Is that possible..."
Someone asked.
Xiao Ning nodded, "Princess Huaxun would definitely be happy to receive your respects."
Ever since hearing that Princess Huaxun died in such a tragic way, everyone instantly lost interest in eating and drinking.
Even the singing and dancing were removed.
Shang Xi has remained silent since hearing the news of Hua Xun's death.
Huaxun's mother's family was not prominent, Concubine Ruan was not favored, and Huaxun was not valued by the emperor.
She has developed a timid character since she was young.
He is obedient and kind, but has no opinion of his own.
But such an indecisive princess died in such a resolute manner.
Shang Xi and her are not close.
It was even because of her that he and Xiao Ning almost died in a hunting trip.
When he learned that she was going to the Xiongnu, he gave her some advice.
Shang Xi felt that he was repaying evil with kindness.
They weren't close...
But when he heard the news of her death, he still felt heavy in his heart.
He didn't know that he was feeling sad for a sister he grew up with but wasn't very familiar with.
It's still sad for a princess who died for her country.
But after that, he never moved his chopsticks again.
The welcoming banquet ended early.
After saying goodbye to Zhangye and others, the two of them headed back.
Shang Xi was silent all the way.
Xiao Ning could see that he was sad.
She sighed softly and held his hand, giving him strength.
After returning to the residence and entering the house, Shang Xi suddenly turned around and hugged Xiao Ning tightly.
"Aning..."
he shouted, his voice muffled.
Xiao Ning patted him on the back and said, "I'm here."
Shang Xi hugged her tighter.
