Deliberately teasing him, deliberately torturing him, deliberately bullying him.
Whatever is fine.
At least I didn't ignore him or not care about him at all.
It's really humble to the dust.
Xie Wanning's heart tightened uncontrollably, and she pursed her lips for a long time without uttering a word.
When her eyelids drooped, the hand on her chin gently pinched her, forcing her to look up again.
He seemed not to have told her that he loved her eyes.
Even if there was disgust towards him in her eyes, he liked the way his image was reflected in her beautiful eyes.
"Wanwan," he smiled at her, his voice soft, "I'm going to the battle."
Northern Xinjiang.
These two words flashed through Xie Wan Ning's mind.
He had said before that he would fight in Northern Xinjiang this year.
Wait until he comes back from Northern Xinjiang...
Everything went dark before her eyes, and the man in front of her moved closer to her. Xie Wan Ning thought he was going to kiss her again, but he didn't.
Lu Ziyan just looked at her without blinking, as if he wanted to carve her into his heart, "Will you come with me?"
“……!” Xie Wanning’s pupils suddenly widened, “You want to kidnap me and take me to the battlefield!”
Lu Ziyan asked: "Are you willing?"
"I don't want to!" Xie Wan Ning was furious, "I know you are used to being arrogant, but I..."
"I'm just worried about you," Lu Ziyan interrupted. "The journey to the northern border is long and the mountains are high. If anything happens to you, I won't be able to help you. Wanwan, I don't want to experience the pain of your deep sleep again."
His tone was gentle, he was just stating a fact, not expressing his feelings, and there was no embarrassment in exposing his pain points.
Xie Wan Ning listened, slowly clenched her fingers in her sleeves, moved her lips, and said stiffly: "Don't bother me."
"This is your safety, I can't just ignore it," Lu Ziyan said, caressing her soft jawline with his fingertips, "Come with me to the Northern Frontier, okay? In a year at most, I will defeat the Jin Dynasty and bring you back to Beijing."
"I won't go," Xie Wanning said with a wooden face, "Of course you can take me away by force, and you don't need to consider my feelings, but I tell you, all you will get is..."
"Shut up!" Lu Ziyan's expression changed instantly, and he shouted in a low voice: "If you dare to speak without restraint again, I will take you to the camp and serve you first."
The word "serve" coming out of his mouth is definitely a verb.
Xie Wan Ning was very aware of the situation and stopped talking immediately, but her eyes were still full of anger.
Their eyes met for a long time, and his expression gradually softened. "Really not going?"
"No." Xie Wan Ning said.
Lu Ziyan looked at her deeply for a long time, and finally hummed softly, "Then I won't go."
When it comes to stubbornness, he can never compare to this girl.
Xie Wan Ning heaved a sigh of relief, and then he handed the bamboo tube to her, "Open it and take a look."
The bamboo tube was neither too big nor too small, and the sealing layer had been torn open by him. She only needed to peel it gently to open it.
Xie Wan Ning thought about it, pulled out the bamboo stopper, and poured out the contents.
A jade ring and a curled note.
There were some small characters written in a flamboyant style on the note.
Xie Wan Ning took a quick glance, and when she saw the words "Purple Bamboo Forest", the corners of her lips twitched slightly.
This person couldn't really be there, waiting for her.
How did he think she would be willing to go on a tryst with him alone?
It turned out that what he said about waiting for her for a day was actually true.
"With this ring, you can command all my personal soldiers in the capital."
Lu Ziyan picked up the jade ring on her palm and whispered, "This is the backup plan I left for you. When I'm not in the capital, if you sense any disturbance, don't take any risks to test anything. Go directly to the Zhenbei Palace. There is a tunnel leading to the military camp outside the capital. Once you get there, no one can hurt you..."
As he spoke, he was about to tell her to put on the ring.
Xie Wan Ning raised her hand to interrupt: "Do you think I'll be in any danger?"
Lu Ziyan paused and said calmly: "There are many people in the world who are short-sighted. A gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall. It is better to be prepared."
He didn't give a direct answer, but Xie Wan Ning knew.
Once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of ropes for ten years.
Her death in the previous life made him no longer have the confidence to plan and control everything.
Xie Wan Ning herself felt that since it was a matter of her own life, it could not be too careful.
But she is now a wife of the Pei family, so how can she take his token and rely on his people for protection?
In this case, where does Pei Yuqing stand?
Pei Yuqing...
Xie Wan Ning was startled, "My secret guard!"
When Pei Yuqing left Beijing, he left her with four secret guards, and Pei Er was there to take care of her in the open.
Now, this man has appeared in her room openly, where are those secret guards?
Seeing that she finally reacted, Lu Ziyan pinched his brow and whispered, "I didn't do it."
As she stared at him with gritted teeth, he said with a guilty conscience: "It should be Mingfeng who handled it. You know, he is used to making decisions on his own..."
"Lu Ziyan!"
Those were the four secret guards that Pei Yuqing had carefully selected for her before she left Beijing. They were elite members of the Sky-Clearing Guard who were able to take on ten enemies at once!
Last time, several secret guards were dealt with by his Ming Feng, and this time it was him again!
Xie Wan Ning was really annoyed and hateful, with anger rising to the top of her head. Without thinking, she raised her hand and swung it down violently.
A crisp sound of "pop" echoed throughout the house.
Even the maid waiting outside heard the noise and asked in a low voice.
Xie Wan Ning only felt her wrists going numb and her palms aching. Just as she was saying a few words to the maid, her wrist was grabbed.
"Does it hurt?" Lu Ziyan looked at her red palm, squeezed it gently, and said calmly, "Do you like getting slapped in the face so much?"
