Before she could react, warm lips covered hers.
Song Tingwan only felt his cheeks getting hotter and his whole body was hot.
The temperature around was rising steadily, and the house was filled with the storyteller's sonorous and powerful praise, and from time to time there were cheers from the listeners.
In such an environment, Song Tingwan and Xiao Yunze stayed close to each other for a long time.
After a while, Song Tingwan lay in Xiao Yunze's arms and touched her lips, which seemed to be a little swollen...
Song Tingwan couldn't help but start to reflect, has she been too obsessed with male beauty recently?
"Wanwan?"
A low, mellow voice came from above my head.
Song Tingwan calmed himself down and didn't look up again.
It was this man who called out "Wanwan" in a soft and gentle voice, and she couldn't help but kiss him several times!
It’s not that she is too obsessed with men, she was seduced!
"I saw tens of thousands of Wei Kingdom cavalrymen kneeling in submission. With the goddess here, they dared not advance even a single step!"
The storyteller's voice was very infectious, and there was applause from the audience.
“Bang!”
The wake-up stick was banged, and a high-pitched voice came, "To know what happened next, please listen to the next chapter!"
"Dear readers, please come back tomorrow."
There was a commotion in the audience.
"Sir, shouldn't we talk about the dragon's arrival tomorrow?"
"Sir, when will the show start tomorrow?"
There was a lot of noise downstairs, but Song Tingwan stopped listening and sat up straight to look at Xiao Yunze.
"Why did you come here to listen to storytelling after the court?"
Xiao Yunze stretched out his big hand and took her into his arms again, "Come and listen to our Wanwan's heroic deeds."
The tone sounded very proud.
Song Tingwan raised an eyebrow, "Have you been drinking?"
"Why do you say that?" Xiao Yunze denied it.
"So what happened today?"
Xiao Yunze rubbed her face and said, "Our Wanwan is really smart."
Song Tingwan: “…”
He was acting so strangely today, and he kept trying to get close to her...
He must have been drinking.
Why didn't I notice it just now? I didn't smell any alcohol at all, and there wasn't a wine jug on the table.
Song Tingwan pushed his hand away and leaned against the back of the couch. "Tell me the truth, how much did you drink?"
Xiao Yunze came up again, "Not much."
"What kind of wine are you drinking?"
"Lord Wei brewed his own wine."
Song Tingwan raised an eyebrow, "Then why doesn't it smell like alcohol at all?"
"you guess."
Song Tingwan: “…”
She was almost laughing out of anger: Do you want me to guess or not?
"Wanwan." The voice from above was flattering.
"Yeah." Song Tingwan responded softly.
"Thank you."
Song Tingwan suddenly froze in his arms.
What is this about?
"Today in the court, my third brother was convicted," Xiao Yunze narrated softly, "of treason and collaborating with the enemy, framing loyal officials... and many other crimes. He should be executed according to the law."
Hearing this, Song Tingwan's heart tightened, "So what was the final verdict?"
"Imprisoned for three years, and never allowed to be crowned king or heir."
Song Tingwan frowned, "This sentence... just because he's a prince, he did so many evil things, almost causing the destruction of Fenzhou City, and this can be covered up?"
"His mother is the Empress. His maternal grandfather is the Prime Minister. His cousin is the General of the Northern Frontier, holding military power. The power of his maternal relatives is immense. Even my father, with such irrefutable evidence, couldn't bring himself to deal with him."
Song Tingwan didn't understand. "But he's the emperor. Even if the prime minister and generals have great power, they can't be greater than the emperor, right? The emperor commands so many people to obey him. How can he not even have the freedom to punish criminals?"
Xiao Yunze said in a low voice, "The power structure in the court is complex and complicated, and the Prime Minister's lineage is very strong. Or perhaps, it's because the emperor doesn't want to punish the third brother severely."
"But today is all thanks to you."
The more Song Tingwan listened, the more confused she became. "I wasn't even in the court, so how could it be all thanks to me?"
Xiao Yunze hugged her tighter. "If it weren't for the three Wu brothers' accusation in the court today, my brother would at most be investigated by the Ministry of Justice and released after a few days of detention."
"Wanwan, thank you for saving Wu Yu, thank you for capturing Wu Zhe alive. Thank you for teaching me how to make explosives, thank you for your material assistance these days, and thank you for always being with me and never leaving me."
Xiao Yunze's voice was so low that Song Tingwan felt distressed.
Song Tingwan patted his back gently, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
