Fu Tong'er patted Lu Zhenzhi and said, "Master Jiu, don't talk nonsense. Be careful of getting beaten by your wife. Besides liking my body, do you have me in your heart?"
Lu Zhenzhi smiled faintly: "My little wife is quite fierce."
He paused again and said, "This prince...does like your body, but you are in my heart. You must believe this."
"There's... me?"
"Um."
After hearing this, Fu Tong'er leaned forward, resting her head on the man's arm, and asked cautiously: "Jiu Ye said that you have me in your heart? Then, Jiu Ye, if one day you have to choose between power and me..."
Lu Zhenzhi said, "If I were just an ordinary person, I wouldn't have saved your life three years ago, nor would I have protected you in times of danger. Would you have fallen in love with me? Would your father and brother have allowed the Fu family's daughter to marry a man with nothing? What on earth are you thinking about all day long, you little brain?"
"I can."
Lu Zhenzhi listened to the two firm answers. Her eyes were childish and serious. He couldn't help but laugh and kissed the top of her head.
"My king...thank you for your love." This ambiguous answer was actually Lu Zhenzhi's response. "Power is not a terrible beast. My king is sincere to you, you must believe it. However, sincerity is not enough in this world."
"Master Jiu, Master Jiu, how sincere are you to me?" Fu Tong'er mustered up the courage to ask this question.
Lu Zhenzhi said: "How much... I surrendered to you today, do you remember?"
Fu Tong'er lowered her eyes.
"You are the first woman to whom this king has willingly surrendered."
Fu Tong'er blinked.
"Then, Master Jiu, tell me you love me."
Lu Zhenzhi closed his eyes: "Sleep."
"Say you love me."
"No."
"Master Jiu, say you love me..."
"impossible."
"Then," Fu Tong'er rubbed the man's chest, "Master Jiu, I love you."
"This king knows."
A moment of silence
Lu Zhenzhi closed his eyes and stroked Fu Tong'er's head, "Tong'er, do you like General You?"
"Ah?" Fu Tong'er was stunned. "I think of him as my elder brother. Sometimes, he is like my brother, and even more so when you look at him from a distance."
"Tong'er, if you miss your family, I will send someone to your motherland to invite your family over."
"No! No!" Fu Tong'er hugged Lu Zhenzhi tightly, "Master Jiu, please don't send me away."
"What happened to you and your family?"
"They said they would cut off all ties with me." Fu Tong'er said, "If Jiu Ye invites them, I will definitely be taken back by my father and brother, and I will never see Jiu Ye again... So, so, we should have a child first..." As she said this, she rubbed his head and wanted to kiss him again.
Lu Zhenzhi put his hand over her lips and said, "Little girl, you should deal with your relationship with your family first."
"If you can't handle it, Master Jiu can consider giving up on me. In my situation, even if I'm pregnant with your child, my father and brothers have already distanced themselves from me. Master Jiu won't be able to obtain the power and army he desires."
Lu Zhenzhi smiled faintly and said, "Tong'er has some truth to it."
Fu Tong'er was stunned for a long time, then snorted and turned away: "Master Jiu is really snobbish."
Lu Zhenzhi patted her and whispered, "Just chatting casually, why are you so angry? Come here, I like you to lie on me."
Fu Tong'er turned around again, rested her head on the man's chest, and closed her eyes obediently. She was a little sleepy.
"Once I have resolved the recent salt administration issue, I will send for your brother to come over."
"But,"
"Tong'er is my woman, so you don't have to worry about these things."
"What if he takes me away?"
"Then go back with him."
"What! You!" Fu Tong'er turned her back again and refused to turn around no matter how she was coaxed.
Lu Zhenzhi smiled and said, "I was just chatting with you casually, why are you angry again? If he wants to take you back, I will hide Xiao Tong'er, how about that?"
"No! Listen to what I'm saying, Master Jiu. Is it true? If my brother wanted to take me away, you would be happy for it."
