She suddenly wrinkled her nose: "Huh, what's that strange fragrance?"
Zaun was sweating profusely. It must be because Daji's body fragrance lingered in the carriage after she was summoned. It's strange, since Daji has no soul now, she naturally wouldn't be applying perfume. I wonder where that fragrance came from.
He also remarked that women's noses are like dogs, so sensitive to scents that don't belong to them, even though they all smell pretty much the same to men.
He dared not summon Daji now to introduce her to her, knowing that she was still jealous a few days ago, and if he brought out another woman now, wouldn't that just be asking for trouble?
Let's talk about it when she's calmed down.
Zuan quickly changed the subject: "Didn't you say it was inconvenient? Why are you spending more and more time in the carriage lately?"
Chu Chuyan sighed softly, "Grandpa, we'll be in the capital in three days."
Zu An was taken aback, knowing that she was worried about his safety, after all, in her opinion, his trip to the capital was a matter of life and death.
Overwhelmed with emotion, he couldn't help but gently embrace her: "Don't worry, my wife. Although this journey is dangerous, it's not without hope..."
He didn't finish his sentence because a soft pair of lips pressed against his.
He was taken aback, but quickly realized that the other person was probably being so proactive because they thought they might be facing a life-or-death separation soon.
Zu An felt a pang of pity and hugged her slender waist tightly.
Suddenly, Chu Chuyan raised her delicate hand, and it seemed that a light snowflake was dancing around the two of them.
"What is this?" Zu'an asked, somewhat curious.
Chu Chuyan's face was as beautiful as a peach blossom, and her voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzz: "This can isolate sounds from both inside and outside..."
Zu An's heart skipped a beat. She never expected that the usually aloof and delicate-looking girl would take the initiative like this. She couldn't hold back any longer and pounced on her.
"Don't...don't pull my clothes, otherwise...otherwise, if someone comes in later, it won't be time." Chu Chuyan bit her lip, she never expected to say such words.
However, thinking about how much Zuan had done for her, she gradually calmed down.
Zuan thought about it and realized that if someone saw them later, he would be the one who would suffer. So he stopped insisting and the two of them cooperated as much as possible.
The two were newlyweds, but due to family misfortunes, they had to separate for a long time. Now that they are reunited, it is truly a case of "a golden breeze and jade dew meeting once, surpassing countless encounters in the mortal world."
Chu Chuyan gritted her teeth and endured the pain. Although she had already made preparations around herself, she still subconsciously dared not make a sound. But the more she did this, the more her body ached...
At this moment, the imperial guard officers outside kept glancing towards the carriage:
"Why do I feel the carriage shaking a little? Could it be..."
"Shut up. Miss Chu is a fairy-like person. How could she be like what you think?"
"That's true, hehe... The main thing is that they are husband and wife after all. It's inevitable that people will have wild thoughts if the two of them hide in the carriage."
"You don't need to worry too much. That guy surnamed Zu won't live for many more days. When Miss Chu is single again, everyone can rely on their own abilities."
"I don't expect Miss Chu to favor me. I'd be content if I could just talk to her a few more times."
"Pah, you simp, I'm ashamed to be associated with you."
...
After an unknown amount of time, the fairy who was once unattainable in their hearts was now lying in Zu'an's arms like a lump of mud. The blush on her face and the sweet joy between her brows showed how happy she had just been.
"Grandpa, I'll head out first after we get out. See you in the capital." Chu Chuyan gently stroked her lover's cheek with her fingers, her eyes filled with reluctance.
Zu'an knew she was planning to ask her grandfather to save her. Although he knew the chances were slim, he didn't want to spoil her mood, so he lowered his head and kissed her luscious red lips: "Let fate decide, there's no need to force it. You have to believe that I have a way."
Chu Chuyan hummed in agreement, shifting her position like a kitten. She just wanted to lie there forever and ever...
Unfortunately, they still had to part ways eventually. After resting for a while, she felt her strength gradually returning and left.
For the next period of time, Zuan was bored and alone. Fortunately, he arrived in the capital three days later.
Looking at the magnificent city gate before him, Zu An was somewhat moved, because he felt a faint pressure on his body after entering the city.
Seemingly sensing his confusion, Zhu Xie Chixin said, "There is a powerful formation suppressing the capital, deterring all villains. Flying is prohibited around the clock. Anyone who takes to the air recklessly will be attacked by the formation. Don't blame me for not warning you."
Zu An smiled slightly: "Anyway, I won't live in this capital for more than a few days, so these restrictions are meaningless to me."
Zhu Xiechi was taken aback: "You are quite magnanimous. It is already late today. You can stay in the city for the night and come with me to the palace early tomorrow morning."
Zu An frowned. What a joke! He possessed the immortality method that the emperor had specifically requested. Even if the emperor was busy with his concubines, he would still summon him immediately upon learning of my arrival.
Why stay outside for another night and add unnecessary complications?
Something's strange!
