Chapter 61
Chapter 61
Wen Shuse had been running around for a whole day and night without closing her eyes, and her body and mind were tortured. The only reason she could still stay awake was because of the good foundation she had laid over the past decade.
But she couldn't stand the dizziness in her head and was kissed on the mouth by her lover. She didn't understand what was happening for a moment. Her eyes widened in shock and she stared blankly at the enlarged face in front of her, afraid of exposing her whereabouts. There was no bonfire in the woods, but the torches in the hands of several people were not extinguished. The dim light behind her shone on her and jumped between her eyebrows. She saw that her eyelashes were tightly closed, and her long, thin eyelashes were drooping with a layer of fine water droplets. She seemed uneasy inside and was trembling slightly.
There was a buzzing sound in his head and he came back to his senses slowly. Wen Shuse's first reaction was to push him.
He, what is he doing... There is someone behind him! When she came over, Master Wei was looking over here, and Min Zhang, his eyes were always on his master.
You must have seen it.
This was the first erotic scene in his life, and it was seen by everyone.
She was embarrassed and annoyed and tried to push him away, but failed. He was determined to kiss her, and he clasped the back of her head tightly and refused to let go, keeping his lips pressed tightly against her small mouth, not moving at all.
Her lips were blocked by him without leaving any gap. Wen Shuse couldn't breathe. The breath from her nose met with her lover's. Her face turned red and she became more and more panicked.
Xie Shao was also a little at a loss at this time. He had just stared at her eyes and suddenly wanted to kiss her. Once the thought came up, it was like a flood, rushing up and he couldn't suppress it at all. On impulse, he pulled her over and kissed her.
He had intended to just touch her briefly to relieve his anxiety, but he lost control the moment he touched her. He had no idea that the girl's lips were so soft. Where her lips were connected, they were burning hot, as if there was a faint fragrance that tempted him to sink in. It was as if he was in dire straits and he couldn't get out. His heart was pounding and his mind was in a mess. He didn't know what to do, except that he didn't want to leave.
Seeing that she was trying to hide, he naturally couldn't let go. He increased the strength of his hands and pressed the young lady's lips tightly.
He pressed too hard, causing her lips to feel both painful and numb. She couldn't push them away, and remembering that the people behind her were probably watching the fun, Wen Shuse could only reach out and pinch his arm in a hurry.
The man was suddenly awakened by a sudden pain in his arm.
As soon as his hand loosened, the young lady instantly moved away from him, sat opposite him, with her back to everyone, buried her face in her palms, ashamed to see people.
Xie Shao realized it later and looked up. He saw several gazes not far away, some dodging, and needless to say, he saw everything.
The first time he was intimate with the young lady, he was surrounded by everyone. After all, he was too shy and was stunned for a moment. The night wind suddenly made the boy's face blush. Fortunately, the night was blocked. He touched the tip of his nose and turned his head away. There was a silence in his ears. For a moment, even the chirping of insects in the woods seemed to be inaudible.
It was all my fault for not being able to control myself. I was too abrupt and made the young lady embarrassed. I was afraid that she would be angry, so I secretly glanced at her. The young lady didn't cover her face anymore, but buried her head and started to take small bites of the cake.
He coughed lightly and handed her the water at hand attentively, "Drink some water, don't choke."
In fact, Wen Shuse didn't think there was anything wrong with that kiss. She was his wife, and it was natural for him to kiss her. What was wrong was that so many people saw it.
But on second thought, it didn't seem to be a big deal. The couple had just experienced a life-and-death situation and survived. It was reasonable for him to hug her and kiss her in a fit of excitement.
Not to mention him, I also felt impulsive when I saw him still alive in the puddle at the bottom of the valley. If he hadn't fallen in time, I would have kissed him.
Once you figure it out, everything will be fine. Shyness comes and goes quickly, and embarrassment will never stay with her for long.
Without being polite to the young man, she took the water bag and drank a sip, then handed it back to him as if nothing had happened, and said with an open-minded look: "Young man, eat quickly. You haven't eaten for a day and a night, you must be hungry..."
In just a few breaths, he watched the shyness on her face disappear like magic. He didn't expect that the girl was more open than him. He breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little lost. He regretted that their first kiss was at such a bad time that he couldn't leave her with ripples that were enough to make her savor it.
I can't be as calm as she is.
On the way from Fengcheng to Nancheng, the two drank from the same water bag more than once and didn't think there was anything wrong with it. But after kissing each other this time, they could no longer remain calm.
I tilted my head back to drink the water, and it seemed as if the taste of the water was different from before.
As his mind was wandering, the young lady slowly moved closer and whispered, "If you want to kiss me, let's do it next time when there's no one around."
His breathing suddenly tightened. The young lady's words were so tempting that his previous mood suddenly rose from the bottom of the valley to the sky. The water in his mouth went down his throat with a "gulp" sound.
Even the feeling of fatigue in my body disappeared, and the future suddenly became promising. I will kiss her again when there is no one around...how will she kiss me? It really makes me imagine something impure.
Just when he was distracted, he caught a glimpse of Master Wei walking towards him. He had to temporarily suppress his wandering thoughts and glanced at him.
He knew the Wei family in Dongdu.
I had seen the eldest son of the Wei family when I was a child, but I only remembered that he was thin. After not seeing him for more than ten years, he has become a tall and handsome young man.
Wei Yun walked up to him, called out to the Third Young Master, and handed him a bottle of ointment in his hand, "It contains golden wound medicine, which can be used for the Third Young Master's injury."
Xie Shao knew that the Crown Prince and the Yang family were in opposition in the court, but he did not expect that he would be so willing to help. He stood up and bowed to him, "I am really sorry that Master Wei was also involved in this trip. I would like to thank Master Wei first."
Wei Yun bowed and said, "This is all what I wanted. Since I made the choice, I can expect the result. You don't have to be so polite, Third Young Master." He turned to look at Wen Shuse and said in a gentle tone, "Two months ago, I asked for food in Fengcheng. If it weren't for Third Madam's generosity, who helped my Luoan soldiers to save their lives, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to stand here safely. Today, I can do my best to help you two. For me, this is also a wish come true."
Hearing that he was talking about himself, Wen Shuse hurriedly stood up. The people had been rescued, and he could easily say nice things: "Donating food and grass for the army, Master Wei just ran around for the Dafeng soldiers. If you owe anyone a favor, it shouldn't be Master Wei who should repay it. Master Wei, please don't think about it anymore. The great favor has been repaid this time." He glanced at the cake in his hand and asked enthusiastically: "Did Master Wei keep it for himself? The situation in the future is still unclear. It's hard for Master Wei to become a wanderer with us. He needs to replenish his physical strength."
Perhaps she had overcome the difficulties, the smile on her face was much more relaxed, no longer as defensive and nervous as when she came to ask for help, nor as disgraceful and collapsed as seen in the pond just now.
With a bright smile, she became the lively girl she first met in Fengcheng.
Wei Yun smiled and said yes, then handed her a paper bag in his hand, "Third Madam, your clothes are wet, and it's cold in the forest. I just happened to have a new set of clothes prepared. Third Madam, change into them, and be careful not to catch a cold."
Originally she was already wearing someone else's clothes, but she was too excited and jumped into the puddle, getting soaked all over again. It was indeed a bit cold at night, unlike during the day.
Since there are extra ones, it’s better to change into dry ones. Wen Shuse took it and thanked him.
Wei Yun said to Xie Shao again, "I have sent trustworthy people to lead away the government troops. They will not catch up with us for a while. Third Young Master, take this opportunity to rest and recuperate for a while before we go inside."
There was nothing unusual on Xie Shao's face. He nodded with a smile. When the man turned around, his eyes fell on the young lady in front of him.
I was so focused on looking at her just now that I didn't notice it. Now I realize that the shirt she was wearing was not her original one at all.
He knew that she had come down the mountain in the middle of the night and had been caught in such a rainstorm, so she must be in a mess. If someone could give her a dry piece of clothing, he should be grateful. However, the dull pain in his heart was obviously not joyful, and he even felt uncomfortable. It was not that he minded whose clothes she wore, but that he hated himself for being useless and was annoyed that he was not the one who accompanied her when she was most helpless.
When Wen Shuse came back after changing her clothes, she saw her husband holding a torch to keep himself warm.
The torch was too close, and she was afraid that he would burn his hair, so she advised: "My dear, are you cold too? How about I make a fire, and I will clean it up tomorrow..."
"It's not cold." He gave her the place to dry the oven. "Are you tired?"
Tired, of course I’m tired.
After a tense day and night, and lingering in front of the gate of the King of Hell several times, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. She sat down, exhausted. Seeing that he was still roasting her, she ignored him and buried her head and hugged her knees, "I'll take a nap first, and my husband should also rest early."
I didn't sleep well in the wilderness. My head slipped off my knees several times. I was pulled by someone while I was half asleep and heard a voice saying, "Your shoulders are dry. Come over here and sleep."
Finally there was a place to support my head which was sliding down. I was so sleepy that I couldn't open my eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
The Imperial Palace of Dongdu.
The emperor had just finished changing his clothes when a eunuch hurried to the door from the corridor outside and whispered something to the man on duty at the door. The man looked panicked, turned around and pushed the door.
Liu Kun helped the emperor to sit on the edge of the bed. Just as he was about to help him lie down, he suddenly caught a glimpse of one of his men standing behind the curtain, speaking hesitantly and winking at him.
What else could he do at this time? He walked over quietly, frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
The man whispered to Liu Kun.
Liu Kun was stunned, and returned to the emperor, reporting in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Prince Jing is here."
The emperor was also stunned. The princes were not allowed to come to the capital without being summoned. Didn’t he just return? Why did he come to Kyoto at this time?
If someone saw him, he would lose his head. He took off his shoes and asked Liu Kun to put them on him. He ordered, "Call the people in. Don't let anyone see him."
"yes."
Soon, a palace lantern was lit outside, leading a man in a bamboo hat into the room. As soon as he entered the room, he took off his hat, knelt on the ground, and touched the ground with his forehead. "Your son kowtows to the emperor, may the emperor be blessed with good health."
The emperor's eyes fell on him and he trembled slightly. The last time they met was at the birthday banquet three years ago. He didn't change much, but he himself had aged. He said softly, "Get up."
Before dawn the next day, an urgent report came from Zhongzhou: Deputy Envoy Xie of Fengcheng rebelled, surrounded the palace, and locked Prince Jing outside the city gate, intending to rebel.
The morning court was in an uproar.
Most people couldn't believe it and asked doubtfully, "Which Deputy Envoy Xie?"
"Xie Daoyuan, the elder brother of the former Xie Pushe."
It really is that Xie family.
The faces of the civil and military officials in the court varied. General Yang and the others stood there and kept silent. The Right Prime Minister Yuan Mingan glanced at him, walked over, and took the initiative to talk: "The Xie family has produced a Prime Minister after all, how come they suddenly plotted treason? What do you think, General Yang?"
General Yang smiled, "It's not surprising that a bad guy can be born in the same chicken coop. What's more, he is a person with ill intentions. He deliberately knocked a crack, is he going to bring disaster to the whole chicken coop?"
Yuan Mingan looked at him with a smile and said nothing, "From what General Yang said, is there any other mystery behind this matter?"
Yang Jingzhi ignored him, glanced around him, and exclaimed, "Prime Minister Yuan's network of contacts is getting wider and wider. It's no exaggeration to say that he has a thousand-mile eye and a sharp ear. If there's anything you want to know, you can just say a word. Why bother to come to someone like me who has no eyes or ears to listen to you?"
Yang Jingzhi's mouth is getting better and better. He is no longer like when he first came back, unable to hold back a word and with a face like a monkey's butt.
It was already time for the morning court session and all the ministers were present, so Yuan Mingan had no choice but to shut up.
Soon the emperor arrived and all the officials came to pay homage.
After Ping's death, some ministers came out to attack the Xie family: "You are just a deputy envoy with only two thousand soldiers and horses, yet you dare to rebel. How arrogant! I beg Your Majesty to issue an order immediately to arrest the traitor Xie Daoyuan."
"I second the motion. These thieves have no respect for the law and the monarch. According to the laws of Dafeng, they should be beheaded. All males over the age of sixteen in their family should be punished and hanged. Their mothers, daughters, wives, and concubines should all be confiscated..."
"I second the motion."
"I second the motion..."
In a moment, six or seven people knelt down.
"It is indeed unforgivable to be the mastermind of treason." The emperor snorted coldly, "I would like to ask this Deputy Envoy Xie who gave him the courage."
He glanced at His Highness and called out, "Chen Hao."
One person stepped out and knelt down: "I am your humble servant."
"According to my order, go to Fengcheng in Zhongzhou immediately and capture the traitor Xie Daoyuan. I want him alive. If anything unexpected happens, bring his head to me."
"I obey the decree."
The right prime minister's face changed slightly, and he tilted his head slightly to the right. A man beside him hurriedly stepped out, knelt on the ground, and said in an excited voice: "Your Majesty, the traitor Xie Daoyuan openly raised an army to rebel. The people in the city can all testify. There are witnesses and evidence. In order to prevent future troubles, Your Majesty should immediately send someone to capture and execute him."
"Your Majesty, if the rebels are not eliminated, the people will not be able to calm down. I beg Your Majesty to issue an order."
"I beg your Majesty to issue an order..."
More and more people knelt down, and another person said, "I think that the traitor Xie Daoyuan is indeed unforgivable in this incident, but as the governor, Prince Jing failed to control the situation and put Dafeng in danger. I dare to ask Your Majesty to punish him together to show that the laws of Dafeng are strict and impartial."
"Okay." The emperor looked up at the door and raised his hand, "Send the person in."
Everyone was stunned. Before they could come to their senses, the eunuch had already received the order and arrived at the door. He raised his voice and said, "Prince Xuan Jing."
The babies are here! Thank you for your concern. I had an injection this morning and I feel a little better now. Woo woo woo.
