Chapter 426 Suffering a Serious Crime
Qin family
It was late at night, and outside it was snowing heavily in the cold winter, but inside the house it was warm and full of spring.
The candlelight as small as a bean was dancing, and on the kang, a pair of lovers were entangled, a fusion of dark and white, a collision of masculinity and softness.
The whistling sound of the wind outside the house drowned out the sobbing sounds inside. It was unknown how long it took before the sound of the waves crashing against the shore subsided.
Lu Songli lay there, not wanting to move a finger, letting Qin Sheng wipe her body with a damp, hot cloth. Her sweaty temples, snow-white neck, and back covered in a thin layer of sweat...
Qin Sheng felt very sweet in his heart at this moment. He and Lili were so close just now. He felt that his whole body was full of strength. He was willing to do these trivial things for her by himself and did not want others to do it.
Lu Songli's eyes just happened to sweep across a certain part of someone's body, and as if feeling her gaze, that part of her body instantly perked up, as if it could get into work mode at any time.
Lu Songli pulled the quilt over her and wrapped herself in it. She shouldn't have been soft-hearted. She shouldn't have let him do it a second time just because he finished quickly the first time and looked like he was frightened.
She now felt as if she was split apart...
Lu Songli looked depressed. The model didn't match and she was in great trouble.
Qin Sheng cleaned her up and put away the towels and other things before returning to the kang and carefully asking, "Lili, are you okay?"
The boy's originally clear voice now had a hint of hoarseness to it, which sounded quite pleasant.
Lu Songli buried her face in the soft quilt, and she finally took action.
Seventeen years old, Lu Songli covered her face.
Lu Songli didn't say anything. Qin Sheng thought she was angry. After all, tears were coming out of her eyes just now, and she even grabbed him twice in anger.
Qin Sheng was also skeptical at this moment. Didn't the men in the military camp say that the bigger the penis, the better, and that it could make women ecstatic? Didn't they also say that the longer a man lasts, the more women love him?
Why is it completely different when it comes to him? What women love to death, it’s a lie!
"Lili, are you feeling uncomfortable?" I heard that women will feel uncomfortable the day after the wedding night.
"I'm fine. I just need a few days of rest."
"That's good. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, just tell me."
"Okay, it's late, let's go to bed."
"Um."
Qin Sheng waited until the breathing of the person next to him became long before opening his eyes. He reached out to tuck the quilt around her before closing his eyes and falling asleep.
The next day, Qin Sheng got up at three o'clock in the morning. After getting dressed, he took his bow and arrows and went to the nearest mountain.
Not long after daybreak, he returned with a pair of pigeons, an adult red muntjac and a turtle.
"Mom, I want to make some pigeon soup for Lili to nourish her."
"Okay, Mom got it. These things happen to be useful to your wife. Go and clean out these two pigeons first. After cleaning the pigeons, deal with the red muntjac. The blood of the red muntjac is the most nutritious. When you deal with it, take some fine rice and soak it in the blood of the red muntjac. Later, I will put the fine rice that has absorbed the blood on the stove to slowly dry it. As for this big turtle, keep it first, and then stew it with the old hen." Mother Qin was ruthless when she ordered her son around.
After his mother finished speaking, Qin Sheng went to work obediently.
When Qin Zhao got up, he found that his son Xiaoliu was handling the pigeons skillfully. There was a turtle with its head huddled at its feet, and a blindfolded red muntjac was squatting in the corridor.
Qin Zhao: ...That's ridiculous. Isn't it all frozen over in Liaodong County at this hour? Where did this giant turtle get out? And those red muntjacs, they're not supposed to be active in the middle of winter.
After Qin Sheng finished the tasks assigned by his mother, he filled the water tank at home with water and carried some firewood to the kitchen before asking his mother, "Mom, is there anything else you want me to do?" If not, he would go back to the house.
Mother Qin waved her hand at him and said, "That's all. Go and do your own thing."
When Qin Sheng returned to the room, Lu Songli was still sleeping, her little face rosy from sleep.
After Qin Sheng cleaned himself up, he took off his clothes and squeezed into her bed.
Lu Songli was disturbed and frowned slightly. Qin Sheng reached out and patted her back through the quilt, "Go back to sleep, it's still early."
Lu Songli's brows gradually relaxed, and finally Qin Sheng hugged his wife and took another nap.
When they woke up, it was almost noon. The Qin family had already eaten, but they had left some food for them. Furthermore, the two pigeons were still being stewed over charcoal. Four or five bowls of water had been used up, leaving only one large bowl.
Qin Sheng poured it all out and gave it to her to drink, while he ate the pigeon meat.
In fact, the pigeon meat had been stewed for so long that the essence was in the soup, and the meat was not tasty at all. But Qin Sheng did not dislike it.
The Chinese New Year is only half a month away, and the private school has already started its holidays.
So all the children of the Qin family were at home, and they were quite surprised to see their sixth aunt at home.
Lu Songli had no choice but to tell them that she was on vacation too.
It is almost the end of the year and the severe cold is approaching. The snow has been particularly heavy recently, one after another, almost without stopping.
Because of the bad weather recently, the government office started to arrange shifts, with everyone taking turns on duty. So she only needed to go to the government office once every three to five days. Of course, this was assuming there was no emergency.
At the end of the year, the new emperor is about to get married.
Whether the officials from all over the country returned to Chang'an to report on their work or to send memorials back to Chang'an, they would only report good news and not bad news, and try their best not to bring bad luck to him.
From top to bottom, everyone in the court hoped that the second year of Tianhe would pass smoothly.
But things did not go as planned. First, Yanmen in Bingzhou suffered a heavy snowstorm, and then news came that the Wuhuan were attacking the northern border.
When these two pieces of news came, Song Mo was so angry that he smashed the tea bowl in his hand. The damn God just couldn't bear to see him feel comfortable for a while!
After hearing the news of the snowstorm at Yanmen, Zhang Xian quickly claimed to be ill and did not attend the court. The entire court was filled with civil and military officials, so he couldn't be the only one to be picked on.
Soon after, Zuo Anmin also fell ill and asked for leave from the emperor.
Upon receiving the news, Zhang Xian snorted coldly. This guy finally stopped harming others and himself.
The Minister of Revenue Wu Chunyu also wanted to claim illness and not attend court like Zhang Xian and Zuo Anmin, but he had to go.
He felt that the most difficult person in the entire court, besides the emperor, was him. No, he had an even harder time than the emperor.
Ever since he became the Minister of State and took charge of the national treasury, he has never had a peaceful day.
When the new emperor ascended the throne, the treasury was empty. Every time he finally managed to get some money, there would be various problems that needed to be solved urgently. For example, the floods in the south, the earthquake in Nanyang, and the current snowstorm in Yanmen.
This time too! The new emperor's wedding was a grand affair, costing a fortune. The Wuhuan invaded from the north, requiring food and fodder. And now, with the snowstorm at Yanmen Pass, even more money is needed! Money, money, money, food, food, where is he going to get it?
