The two flirted and teased each other in bed for a while, but did not engage in any activities inappropriate for children.
After talking in bed for a while, the two, who were still very much in love, finally got off the bed. By then, it was already past mid-morning, and people downstairs at Wenxiangju were starting to get busy.
"My lady, why don't you get out of bed today? Just stay in bed all day. I'll have someone cook some red date porridge."
"No."
Zhou Ziqiong looked at him tenderly, "How could I be so delicate? Besides, my husband is leaving tomorrow, and I still need to go back and prepare some things for you!"
Jing Zhe affectionately patted Zhou Ziqiong's head and smiled, "Actually, I don't need to bring anything, I have everything I need. But I'm worried about you, I'm afraid your body won't be able to handle it."
"Whether you need it or not is your business. Whether I prepare it or not is my business. When your man goes on a long journey, how can a woman not prepare anything?"
As she spoke, Zhou Ziqiong got off the bed.
"Ouch~"
When her feet touched the ground, the pain from her lower body made her gasp. Although it hurt, she didn't frown. Instead, she grinned and said, "This is what it feels like to be a woman, isn't it?"
Next, Zhou Ziqiong refused Jing Zhe's help.
After Jing Zhe finished dressing and washing up, he wanted to stay with Zhou Ziqiong, but Zhou Ziqiong said, "Husband, I was already very happy that you stayed with me all night yesterday. You are leaving tomorrow, so you should go and keep Qingren and Yingqiu company now, otherwise it will seem like I, as the older sister, am being inconsiderate."
Zhou Ziqiong's understanding was heartwarming, but Jing Zhe still asked, "And what about you?"
"I'll sit for a while longer, then I'll go back to the Zhou family home to rest and get my things ready."
"..."
The two talked for a while longer, and Jing Zhe didn't insist any further. He then left Wenxiangju and headed to Wuxiange.
Not long after, Zhou Ziqiong came out of the house.
Zhang Xiaoyu had already returned from Wuxian Pavilion, but she didn't come upstairs to disturb them.
Seeing Zhou Ziqiong come downstairs, she immediately went to greet her.
"Sixth Sister, how did you sleep last night?"
"well…"
Just thinking about the absurd scene from last night made Zhou Ziqiong blush and her heart race.
Zhou Ziqiong was shy and didn't want Zhang Xiaoyu to know at this time.
Zhang Xiaoyu didn't think much of it. Last night, they kept Zhou Ziqiong with them so that she could spend another night with Jing Zhe and get to know him better.
Because they knew Zhou Ziqiong was still menstruating, even if they both had feelings for each other, it wouldn't help.
"Is Sixth Sister going back now?"
"Um."
As Zhou Ziqiong spoke, she walked out, but her legs were still not very agile, and she walked with a limp. Seeing this, Zhang Xiaoyu asked, "Sixth Sister, what's wrong with your legs? Are they numb again?"
Last time, Jing Zhe slept with his head on Zhou Ziqiong's lap, which made Zhou Ziqiong's leg go numb. When Zhou Ziqiong left, she was limping. At that time, Zhang Xiaoyu thought they had slept together, but later she found out that it was a misunderstanding.
This time, Zhou Ziqiong had sex, but because of her preconceived notions, Zhang Xiaoyu didn't think about it at all, so she assumed that her legs were numb.
"Ah... this... yes..."
Zhou Ziqiong was struggling to come up with an excuse when Zhang Xiaoyu unexpectedly helped her out, immediately replying, "My legs just went numb..."
"Sixth Sister, if your legs are numb, don't go back yet. Sit here for a while until your legs are no longer numb!"
"No...no need...I'll be fine as I walk!"
After declining Zhang Xiaoyu's suggestion, Zhou Ziqiong, supporting herself on the table, limped out.
Her legs were numb, but they would feel better after resting for a while. However, her legs were not numb, and no matter how much she rested, they wouldn't get better. So she had to take advantage of this time to leave quickly, otherwise she would be exposed!
Watching Zhou Ziqiong's receding figure, Zhang Xiaoyu shook her head and said, "Sigh, we finally managed to sleep together, and my husband ended up sleeping with me all night. What a waste!"
...
After leaving Wenxiangju, Jing Zhe did not go to Wuxiange, but went directly to the newspaper office next door.
After communicating with Chen Jiannan, I learned that everything here had been arranged. In addition to leaving one person as the branch president, one person was also left as the head of each department, and the other members were composed of people recruited from Ruzhou.
According to Jing Zhe, these members would go to Jingzhou for study and exchange for a period of time every year, and there would be no problem.
After making arrangements at the newspaper, Jing Zhe's next stop was not Wuxian Pavilion, but the Yu family.
It shouldn't be too long before the Prince of Jin and Kadan's army set off from Jinxi, heading towards Jingzhou, passing through Ruzhou.
Although Ruzhou is a necessary route from Jinxi to Jingzhou, you won't actually enter Ruzhou city unless you walk a few miles north from the fork in the road.
The "cooperation" between the Prince of Jin and Kadan is nothing more than a trap set by Jing Zhe and Kadan. Kadan will surely lead the Prince of Jin all the way to Jingzhou and will not stop in Ruzhou.
Therefore, when Jing Zhe came to find Yu Li, he mainly emphasized that after he learned that the Prince of Jin had started a rebellion, he closed the city gates and sealed off the Yu King's Mansion, preventing the Prince of Yu and his heir from communicating with the outside world and effectively blocking them in Ruzhou City.
In fact, since Zhou Ziqiong had gone to Jingzhou, there was nothing left for him to worry about in Ruzhou. However, he did not want the people of Ruzhou to be affected, nor did he want King Yu to meet with King Jin, so as to avoid further turmoil.
Yu Li was now completely on Jing Zhe's side, and he treated Jing Zhe's suggestions as orders, so he naturally agreed.
It was already afternoon when I left the Yu family's house.
This time, Jing Zhe went straight to Wuxian Pavilion.
The Wuxian Pavilion was much busier than usual today. The disciples of the Wuxian Pavilion were walking back and forth in the pavilion, carrying things in their hands, presumably preparing for the departure of Mu Qingren and Wang Yingqiu.
Meanwhile, Mu Qingren and Wang Yingqiu sat idly in the hall, waiting for Jing Zhe. Upon his arrival, they immediately beamed with joy.
She grabbed his hand and ran towards the back mountain. Jing Zhe guessed that this direction led to the hot springs on the back mountain.
"Master, Owner, isn't this inappropriate in broad daylight?"
Mu Qingren rolled her eyes at him, "Not just during the day, from now until tomorrow morning, you belong to both of us!"
"..."
