After Shen Jinchen left, Cen Xi slept until late morning, and even after lying there for a long time, she still felt pain in the inner thighs.
She couldn't help but curse Shen Jinchen. Damn it, does he even know what restraint is? She's not a rag doll; she can't let him do those difficult things to her.
"Your Highness, you're awake?"
Just as Cen Xi's brows furrowed, Tian Ying entered the military tent carrying a plate of food.
"Did you bring me food?"
"Hmm! Prime Minister Shen said he'll be very busy today and won't have time to come see you. You were also tired last night, so he asked me to take good care of you."
Tian Ying nodded, then placed the food on the makeshift table and chairs, and brought the water he had prepared earlier into the house.
Looking at her incredibly cute face, Cen Xi's gloom vanished instantly, and she even teased her:
"I've lived most of my life, and this is the first time I've seen such a lovely girl as you. Moreover, I'm so lucky to have you as my maid. If I were a man, I would definitely be holding you and kissing you passionately right now."
"Princess, you've had another episode. Remember to take your medicine later."
Tian Ying replied indifferently and helplessly. She only had one thought: you really can't expect a single serious word from a female hooligan.
"Heh, you've even learned to tease me now, that's an improvement. Tell me, when are you going to make any progress with Lu Duling? He's always hanging around in front of us, it's quite annoying."
Cen Xi let out a soft chuckle, jumped off the bed, and quickly put on his clothes. He didn't bother to hide the ambiguous marks on his body, letting Tian Ying see them.
Tian Ying's face burned. She had experienced that kind of thing before, but nothing as brutal as these two. Was this intimacy? It was more like a fight.
"You're getting distracted. Actually, Lu Duling didn't do anything unforgivable. Why are you being so hesitant? If you agree, you can also enjoy this benefit."
Cen Xi curled her lips and deliberately looked at Tian Ying with seductive eyes, looking exactly like a bewitching little enchantress.
She seems to understand quite well. I asked her:
"Don't I look beautiful? This is the effect of being 'nourished' by a man. Don't you want it?"
"You are shameless, you shameless bastard."
Seeing that she was about to seduce a man into bed at any moment, Tian Ying was so angry that she was practically fuming. Her mouth, which was not usually used to cursing, forced out a few curse words.
"Hmm, I'm shameless enough, but your insults aren't very hurtful. Come on, little sister, let's get a little harsher, let me hear it."
Cen Xi remembers that every time she talked to Tian Ying, it was particularly interesting. Seeing his embarrassed and angry look made her want to bully him even more. She really couldn't help but want to act like a hooligan.
As she thought about it, she suddenly remembered why Shen Jinchen had pursued her and tried to get her into bed. It turned out that she was also that kind of prey.
She suddenly lost interest in arguing with Tian Ying.
Just then, Tian Ying was so angry that she burst into tears and ran away.
The military tent fell silent in an instant.
Cen Xi figured this out and wanted to settle accounts with Shen Jinchen, but that person was obviously very busy. He searched around but couldn't find him. He only met Feng Qin on the way.
Where is your young master?
"He's dealing with military affairs right now, Madam. The young master said he'll be very busy. If you need anything, you can ask me to get it for you. Please bear with it for the next few days. Once he returns victorious, he will definitely make amends to you properly."
"Oh, by the way, he also assigned his subordinate a task, which is that notice you mentioned. The young master has instructed his subordinate to handle it entirely for you. Does the mistress have any requests?"
Feng Qin responded to Cen Xi's words with a smile, and then blinked her eyes, waiting for Cen Xi's next instructions.
"Ha! You treat Shen Jinchen the same way?"
Seeing his obsequious manner, Cen Xi couldn't help but ask another question.
She remembered the first time she met this guy, he was just as obsequious. Even though she destroyed all of her young master's things, he didn't dare to breathe too loudly. It was hilarious.
Shen Jinchen has really given him a real treasure.
“Of course, the mistress is like my mother, and the young master is like my father. You are like my second parents, so I will naturally offer my utmost enthusiasm. Mistress, please speak. Whatever you ask for, just say it, and I will do my best to fulfill it for you.”
Feng Qin smiled obsequiously and spoke very eloquently.
"Get lost! I don't have a son your age. Really? You think you can ask me anything?"
Cen Xi cursed at him, then raised an eyebrow at him with amusement.
"Of course, from now on I will be your lackey. If you tell me to go east, I will never dare to go west. If you tell me to scoop the moon, I will never dare to pick a watermelon. You are my god, and I am willing to obey your commands and never betray you."
Seeing that Cen Xi didn't believe him, Feng Qin became more and more exaggerated, speaking as if reciting poetry, which was chilling.
"Then I'll ask you to go up in the sky and pluck a star down for me. Can you do that?"
Cen Xi's eyebrows curved like a fox's, waiting for this kid to take another turn.
"Hehe... Mistress, could you make a realistic request? Even the young master couldn't fulfill such a request! You can't bully this poor little thing like me!"
Feng Qin chuckled twice and gritted her teeth.
"Didn't you say I asked you to scoop up the moon? Can't you go pick a watermelon instead? You can't even do something this simple, how can I, the princess, trust you?"
Cen Xi smiled meaningfully, knowing that this kid was glib and smooth-talking, and that he needed to be taught a lesson.
“This technology is indeed too advanced. Feng Qin is just a commoner and is not powerful enough to reach for the stars. Also, the mistress seems to have said something wrong. Stars are not a trivial matter. Please… please change your request.”
Fengqin raised an eyebrow, knowing that their grandmother was the most difficult to fool.
And the way she looks today, it's obvious that she was tormented by his young master. Could it be that she's in such a terrible state that he's just caught in the crossfire?
"Alright, but you must gather all the people I need here within three days. If you can't do it, you'll have to do a hundred squats when the general is reviewing his troops at home, so that all the soldiers in the camp can inspect you."
Cen Xi originally just wanted to tease the kid, and now that he had achieved his goal, he might as well scare him a little more.
"This is much easier than plucking stars from the sky. Just wait, Madam. Your people will definitely appear before you within three days."
Feng Qin readily agreed. In fact, he had already posted the notice, and he believed that those people would be quite sensible to come after him, given the warning on the notice.
He felt that if he were one of those deserters, he would be terrified that the female demon would come after him, so he might as well obediently come back.
Just as the two reached an agreement, the army suddenly sounded the war drums, clearly indicating that the Di Rong had launched an attack. Haicheng was a fortress for advancing into the Central Plains, and even though they knew that there were a large number of reinforcements in Haicheng, they had no choice but to take action.
Their morale is high now, and if they don't take Haicheng in one fell swoop, they might miss the opportunity to win the battle.
