Chapter 63: The Marquis's subordinates understand their master
Lin Yao felt even happier when she heard this. It seemed that her brother Xing Ci was almost tired of that woman, seeing his cold tone.
"Brother Xingci, just let her stay in the military camp for two days. After all, she has served you before. I won't take it too seriously." Lin Yao acted like a good person at the right time and smiled softly.
"What I say is a military order. Since I said I would punish her, I cannot lie." Mu Xingci said seriously.
When Lin Yao saw how serious he was, she felt relieved. She would then send someone to the military camp to investigate.
If she found out that this man was cheating on her, she would threaten to break off the engagement and ask him to kill that woman immediately. She didn't believe that Mu Xingci would offend their Grand Tutor's Mansion for a woman.
Yun Wansheng followed him into an ordinary carriage. As soon as the carriage started moving, she was so angry that she sat in the carriage and cursed the bastard.
"You bastard, you don't recognize me after you pull up your pants. I curse you to choke on water, choke on food, and be unable to get an erection when sleeping with a woman...!"
While cursing intermittently, the carriage suddenly stopped: "Miss Yun, we're here."
Qi Yi tried to suppress his laughter outside the car and said, this woman has been scolding the master all the way.
Yun Wansheng was stunned when she heard this. "We're here? Is the military camp so close?"
Thinking about it, I got out of the car, but what I didn't expect was to see the door of my own home.
He got out of the car with a confused look on his face and asked Xiang Qiyi, "Didn't the Marquis just say that he wanted me to go to the military camp?"
"Miss Yun, the Marquis loves you so much, how could he bear to send you to the military camp? If he hadn't deliberately made the punishment so severe, you would have been whipped.
He was wholeheartedly protecting you, yet you scolded him all the way. If the Marquis knew about this, you would really break his heart." He said with a smile.
Yun Wansheng listened to his joke and smiled a little embarrassedly: "I thought he really wanted to send me to the military camp! Don't tell him that I scolded him."
"Uh! I'll try to keep it a secret."
"Guard, what if Miss Lin comes to the barracks to ask about me?"
"That's easy. Just have a laundry girl pretend to be you. She's not going to go to the military camp to check in person anyway.
But don't go out for this month, so that you don't run into each other and reveal your true identity again."
"I understand. I won't go out."
"Miss Yun, please go back to the house! I'll go to the military camp to make some arrangements." As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped into the car and acted as a driver to the military camp.
Yun Wansheng watched the carriage depart with a slight raise of her eyebrows, and whispered softly, "It seems that the subordinates of that dog marquis understand his master well."
After saying this, he was about to enter the yard when he suddenly paused: "I just scolded that dog marquis so much, will it make him angry?" He entered the yard with a nervous mood.
The military camp was filled with the sound of killing in the afternoon. The soldiers on the training ground continued their daily military training as usual, ready to go to war with the enemy at any time.
Mu Xingci arrived at the military camp, and Mingyi followed him into the barracks.
"My Lord, after I sent Miss Yun back to the other courtyard, I found a young sister-in-law in the military camp and asked her to impersonate Miss Yun and take the punishment."
"I trust you to do the job. Tell them that if anyone asks about Miss Yun, spread the word.
"Just say she spends all day washing soldiers' stinky clothes. The more miserable you make her sound, the better. That way, the young lady will feel at ease to leave Lizhou City." Mu Xingci ordered.
"Yes! I'll do it in a moment."
"Did Miss Yun scold me again after she returned?"
"The Marquis really understands Miss Yun's character." Ming said with a smile.
"Stupid woman, just wait and see how I'll punish her when I get back." Mu Xingci cursed lightly.
"My Lord, are you willing to do that?"
"Why should I be reluctant to let her go? She's not a fairy, so why should I worship her?" Mu Xingci glanced at him in a manly way.
"My Lord Marquis is right." Ming Yi believed it.
Mu Xingci looked at his subordinate's obvious disbelief and didn't bother to pay attention to him: "How is the bed crossbow going?"
"I just went over there to check. Several mechanics have already adjusted it. The crossbow can now shoot over 200 steps further than before, now a mile."
"One mile is acceptable, but it does not meet my expectations. Let's go to the forging department, and I will discuss it with those mechanical masters." Mu Xingci said, then stood up and walked out.
While he was busy here, Yun Wansheng in the other courtyard was sitting at the table scribbling. On the paper was the prototype of a bed crossbow, with everything from the selection of materials to the shaft clearly marked, more accurate than Mu Xingci's drawing.
Considering that the man protected her, she didn't mind helping him before leaving, as a way of repaying his favor.
After dinner, Yun Wansheng took a shower and went to bed, then sat on the headboard and read a book.
When she felt sleepy from watching, she saw Mu Xingci walking in with a tired look on his face. As soon as he entered the room, he went straight to the bed and lay down beside her. Then he put one hand naturally on the woman's waist and did not move.
Yun Wansheng lowered her eyes and looked at the man who was hugging her. She saw that he was clinging to her with his eyes closed, looking very dependent on her.
There was a tenderness in her eyes that she didn't know, and her small hand patted the man's cheek naturally: "Go take a shower first to relieve your fatigue."
"No, I'm so sleepy." Mu Xingci rubbed against the woman like a child.
"Even if you don't wash, you have to take off your clothes before you can go to bed. Get up quickly."
"Wait a moment, let me rest first."
When Yun Wansheng heard him say this, she stopped urging him and let him hug her.
After a while, Qiyi's voice came from outside the door: "My Lord, the bath water is ready."
The man on the bed then moved: "Bring it in!" and sat up.
"What are you busy with today that makes you so tired?" Yun Wansheng asked naturally.
"As for the bed crossbow, we spent a lot of time improving it, but only got a little bit better." Mu Xingci said casually.
"How far do you anticipate?"
"I expected it to be about a mile and a half, but it's still a few hundred steps away."
"It does sound a bit difficult." Yun Wansheng replied with concern.
"My Lord, the bath water is ready." He said standing behind the screen.
"Got it, go down and rest!"
As soon as he left, Mu Xingci stood up and said, "Help me bathe." He spread his arms lazily.
Yun Wansheng looked at his superior expression, muttered to herself that the ancients were pedantic, and then got out of bed.
Without saying a word, she helped the man take off his clothes piece by piece, until he was left with only a pair of underwear.
"Go on!" Mu Xingci's deep eyes were always looking at the woman's little face. Seeing that she stopped moving, he urged her with a slight curl of his lips.
"Uh! My Lord, you can go behind the screen and take it off yourself." Yun Wansheng raised her eyes to meet the man's gaze.
"I am too tired today and my hands have no strength."
"Why would you need that much strength to take off your clothes?" Yun Wansheng knew that he was teasing her on purpose.
