Xie Wan Ning swallowed and put her arms around his neck, "Look up."
The man who had buried his face in her neck moved and raised his head slightly. Xie Wan Ning glanced at him.
Just one glance and I was stunned.
Who would have thought that this man, who was as cold as an iceberg and had a sharp face, would lose his gloomy and fierce look and actually show a bit of gentleness and handsomeness.
It’s really scary!
Xie Wan Ning muttered in her heart, held his face, kissed his chin, and said perfunctorily: "It's okay."
"...No," Lu Ziyan pursed his lips, "I didn't feel it."
Xie Wan stared at him, then raised his head and kissed him heavily on the chin.
This time, the sound was too loud to be ignored.
"Is this okay?" Xie Wan Ning blushed, "Don't push your luck!"
"Alright," Lu Ziyan looked at her deeply with eyes as bright as stars, and said in a very kind way, "That's all for today."
He bent down and kissed her forehead, his voice so soft that it could drip water, "Go to sleep."
Xie Wan Ning was actually a little uncomfortable with his gentle and indulgent appearance. She lowered her eyes and said, "I'm not used to being held while sleeping."
"Then get used to it from now on," Lu Ziyan tightened his arms, "Wanwan, be good. There's no room for negotiation on this matter."
Xie Wan Ning was so depressed that she couldn't help but reach out and pinch his waist hard. However, this man's whole body was stiff, so instead of pinching him, she hurt her hand.
Lu Ziyan chuckled, rubbed her fingertips, and kindly taught her: "You can bite me when you are angry."
Xie Wan Ning: “…”
She remained silent and chose to close her eyes and go to sleep.
That night, the two of them hugged each other tightly, like a pair of close lovers who had never been separated.
But Lu Ziyan knew that this was just on the surface.
There is too much pain and hurt between them. Even if they try to repair their affection, it is like building a loft in the air. A slightly stronger wind will rip it apart and make it unrecognizable.
But it doesn’t matter, he can take it step by step. A solid city cannot be built in a day.
He had enough patience and confidence that as long as other men did not intervene, she would eventually see his sincerity and his efforts.
As long as that sickly guy who won her favor disappears completely!
…………
The next afternoon, they returned to Northern Xinjiang.
Xie Wan Ning also saw with her own eyes this magnificent city gate that was known to all the people of the Khanate.
Strong winds swept across the desert, blowing sand into the air.
It was desolate, barren, and dilapidated, and you could faintly smell the sweet smell of blood in the air.
But there was no panic, fear, or despair in the eyes of the people in the city.
Xie Wan Ning lifted the car curtain and looked at the people walking along the street, and found that everyone's face was radiant and they were full of hope for their lives.
Lu Ziyan won several crushing victories, forcing the Jin invaders to retreat back to their own territory and dare not invade again. This year, they no longer have to worry about being captured by foreign cavalry.
When the dignitaries far away in the capital heard that a victory had been won on the border, the first thing they thought of was their own interests. Only the people on the border were grateful from the bottom of their hearts.
Rather than being grateful to the emperor, they were more grateful to Lu Ziyan for driving out the enemies. Some even built a longevity archway in his honor at home.
Xie Wan Ning was of course unaware of all this, but as soon as their team entered the city, even though she was sitting in the carriage, she could hear the people on the street cheering for Lu Ziyan who was riding a horse outside.
The young general, famous for his arrogance in the capital, was worshipped as a god by the people in the north.
Xie Wan Ning had mixed feelings. Of course she felt proud, but she was more worried.
Lu Ziyan's madness left her with a huge shock. Such a person...
While she was daydreaming, the carriage stopped, the curtain was opened, and Lu Ziyan stood outside the carriage and reached out to her.
Xie Wan Ning put her hand on it and got off the carriage.
This should be Lu Ziyan’s general’s mansion.
Although it is not as magnificent as the marquis's mansion in the capital, it looks so majestic and extraordinary at first glance, which makes people feel afraid and dare not offend easily.
...I don't know how long she will live here.
Xie Wan Ning looked around as she walked, and in just a short distance, she met several groups of armored soldiers.
Lu Ziyan was a lonely man. There were no female relatives in his mansion. Even the people who cleaned the kitchen were cooks. Naturally, there was no distinction between the inner and outer courtyards. His trusted aides and deputy generals often came to visit him. There was also a martial arts field in the mansion, which his personal soldiers used as a training ground.
Seeing a girl suddenly appear in a gathering place of a group of men, several groups of people were stunned.
Xie Wan Ning also found it interesting. Although the Khan did not take sex seriously, it was the first time she had seen so many men coming and going in the yard.
The pampered girl who has been raised in the boudoir would have her eyes sparkling when she sees new people and things.
Lu Ziyan took her into a courtyard, and seeing her expression, he smiled and asked, "So happy?"
Xie Wan Ning snorted and ignored him.
Lu Ziyan was not angry. He looked around and introduced: "This is the courtyard where we live. In front is the reception hall and study. Several of my lieutenants have brought their female relatives here. If you are bored, you can call them to talk. If you need anything, just tell me directly. If I am not here, I will leave Ming Feng Ming Jian at home. Don't wrong yourself."
He paused and said, "As long as you want, you can go anywhere in this general's mansion."
Xie Wan Ning was slightly startled.
The residence of a military commander had countless secrets that foreigners wanted to spy on, but it was defenseless to her.
But these words reminded her of the scene in her previous life when she broke into his study.
