Lu Zhenzhi paused and looked down at her: "What do you want in exchange, little girl?"
"Exchange?" Fu Tong'er immediately thought of the power-for-sex trade. This bastard actually talked to her about "exchange"!
"Does Master Jiu know about the beacon fire tricks?"
Lu Zhenzhi laughed dryly and said, "Tong'er, who do you think you are? Do you think I can play with hundreds of thousands of soldiers of Dayan just for you?"
"You're right. Jiu Ye wouldn't. Of course Jiu Ye wouldn't. I'm just someone Jiu Ye kept by his side after weighing the pros and cons. Not to mention Jiu Ye playing with the Yan army for me, even if Jiu Ye found a woman with a stronger and more powerful backing than me one day, he would probably kick me away without even a shred of affection. Am I right? Regent Prince Chun?"
Jiu Ye walked to the top of the mountain, put his hands behind his back and looked at the dark city in the distance. He turned around and stood under the sky like a king of heaven and earth.
"You are very smart, worthy of being Prime Minister Fu's daughter. This king has a strong desire to possess you. Come here, Xiao Tong'er, come to this king."
Fu Tong'er walked over and put some distance between herself and Jiu Ye again. He pulled her into his arms and she looked at the dark city below her feet.
"What does Master Jiu think of me, a girl fourteen years younger than you?"
"For your brother Lu Jin, it's best to take it off and see it."
Fu Tong'er was stunned and her face turned red instantly: "You, you saw that there was no one here, so you said... said something like this, bullying..."
"Tong'er, do you want to see the lights of this city?" Lu Zhenzhi leaned against the top of Fu Tong'er's head. "You have to give yourself in exchange."
"You! I don't understand what Jiu Ye means. Jiu Ye has never touched my body. How can I exchange my life for Jiu Ye?"
Jiu Ye held Fu Tong'er in his arms and rocked her gently. His hands did not hold her from the waist, but he held her whole body in front of him.
"The day the royal physician confirms that you are pregnant with my prince's heir, I will have all the lights in Dayan light up."
Fu Tong'er remained silent. She felt the distance between now and that day was endless. She turned around, placed her hands on Lu Zhenzhi's chest, raised her hands to straighten his shirt, and glanced up.
"Brother Lu Jin..."
Jiu Ye hadn't heard her call him that for a long time. Seeing her tidying up his clothes and looking serious, he lowered his eyes and responded.
"Um?"
When Fu Tong'er heard this gentle response, she was stunned for a moment, and finally leaned into Jiu Ye's chest and hugged the man.
Lu Zhenzhi felt something was wrong, so he let her hold him.
"Brother Lu Jin~" Fu Tong'er called him softly again.
"Tong'er said."
"I," Fu Tong'er closed her eyes, "I'm a little tired."
The evening breeze was a little chilly. Lu Zhenzhi raised his arms and hugged Fu Tong'er: "I'll take you back."
Fu Tong'er hugged him tightly: "No, Tong'er doesn't want to go back."
The wind in the middle of the night blew the delicate emotional lever between the two people.
Jiu Ye took off his cloak, draped it behind Fu Tong'er, and then hugged her.
Fu Tonger continued:
"When Tong'er was three years old, she hugged Lu Jin's legs and said she wanted to marry you. Lu Jin didn't like me. When I was fifteen, Lu Jin saved me, and I fell in love with Lu Jin again at first sight. I searched for Lu Jin for three years without success, and married someone else, but I kept my virginity. When I was eighteen, Lu Jin returned to the court and saved Tong'er. Tong'er fell in love with you again, and discovered that you were the same person."
Fu Tong'er raised her head and touched Lu Zhenzhi's face, a face that was more than ten years older than her.
"Brother Lu Jin is of noble status, second only to the emperor and above everyone else," Fu Tong'er touched the wrinkles at the corners of the man's eyes, "but this is my, Fu Tong'er's, calamity. Tong'er, I'm a little tired. I don't want to go around the world killing those little vixens who want to climb into Brother Lu Jin's bed."
A clump of foxtail grass swayed in the wind.
The city of Shangyang County was so dark that it seemed as if no one was living there.
"It's late at night," Fu Tong'er turned around again, looking at the already closed Shangyang County City, and said quietly, "Brother Lu Jin, I don't want to love you anymore. Let's separate for a while, okay?"
Lu Zhenzhi narrowed his eyes slightly. What did his little girl just say?
