That evening, Peng Mu went outside the palace in a good mood to find Cheng Huaiyu.
King Lang had Cheng Huaiyu given a potion to prevent her from having children, so he didn't care whether Peng Mu went to see her or not.
Moreover, Peng Mu has recently accepted the women he selected for him, three of whom are pregnant.
At this point, King Lang naturally left it to him.
Cheng Huaiyu had already gone to bed, but woke up after smelling the alcohol.
It's hot now, and everyone's wearing very little. Peng Mu, under the influence of alcohol, ripped off her thin garment.
Cheng Huaiyu has adjusted her mindset, knows what Peng Mu likes, and tries her best to cooperate with him.
After a period of pleasure, Peng Mu couldn't sleep, but it was too hot to hold him, so he carried Cheng Huaiyu into the pool in the inner room.
After the two frolicked in the pool for a while, Cheng Huaiyu finally asked, "Husband, is something making you happy?"
Her eyes revealed an innocent look, which Peng Mu liked.
Moreover, Peng Mu was very confident, feeling that he had finally won over Cheng Huaiyu and brought her back to the state she was in when they first met.
He tapped Cheng Huaiyu's nose: "You call me 'husband' so happily? In the future, your husband will definitely make you the legitimate Queen of Lange."
Cheng Huaiyu shyly hugged Peng Mu: "As long as I can stay by my husband's side, even if I'm just a maid, I'm willing."
"Hahahaha..." Peng Mu was extremely pleased with himself. He hugged Cheng Huaiyu and said, "No, I will never let you become a maid. You are the woman I love most. As long as you are obedient, don't betray me, and always stand by my side, I will give you everything you want."
Cheng Huaiyu lowered her head even further; in Peng Mu's view, she was simply shy.
He grabbed Cheng Huaiyu's hand and gently rubbed it a few times: "Xiaoyu, it'll be soon, very soon. I'll make you my woman, give you status and position, and you won't have to hide in the house anymore!"
Cheng Huaiyu looked up, shook her head, and said sincerely, "My lord, I do not wish for you to take risks for me. But the King has sent you to war? I do not want you to go."
Peng Mu's heart melted, and he hugged Cheng Huaiyu tightly: "It's not going to war, it's just..."
His eyes darted around, and he thought of Cheng Huaiyu's past betrayal.
Cheng Huaiyu leaned in and kissed him on the lips, then said, "My husband, I don't want to hear any of this. I just want you to be safe and sound. You don't need to tell me anything else."
Peng Mu shook her head and chuckled, "It's alright, you don't need to be so nervous. I don't distrust you. I believe you. You've fallen in love with me now, and I believe you won't betray me. It's okay to tell you."
So, Peng Mu told Cheng Huaiyu about his plan to contact Kuncheng and then send troops to attack Kuncheng.
Cheng Huaiyu gazed at Peng Mu with infatuation, showing no other expression.
Peng Mu pinched her nose: "So you really don't care about those people from Da Zhou at all now?"
Cheng Huaiyu pursed her lips and said, "I've never cared. I only cared about my brother before, and then Yun-ge'er came along, so I cared about another one. But now, both my brother and Yun-ge'er are out of contact, and the only person I can rely on is you, my husband. So, now, you're the only one in my heart."
Peng Mu smiled: "Yes, Xiaoyu, you are also the only one in my heart."
Cheng Huaiyu leaned against Peng Mu's chest: "Husband, if someone finds out, won't Mother-in-law be in danger?"
Peng Mu paused for a moment, then sighed: "I'm not sure. With Xiao Ba around, they might let my mother go."
Cheng Huaiyu hugged Peng Mu's neck: "Husband, if those people are all people close to Mother-in-law, and the Peng family finds out, they definitely won't let Mother-in-law off the hook."
Peng Mu truly felt that Cheng Huaiyu loved him, and by extension, she cared about his mother. He patted Cheng Huaiyu's back and said, "Don't worry, they're not people from my mother's side. Those people are people from the old man's, my uncle's, and my aunt's side. They were planted there a long time ago."
Cheng Huaiyu leaned her head on Peng Mu's shoulder and narrowed her eyes.
