Long Hua gave an awkward smile, then tried to save face, "General Dongfang doesn't want others to see his wife?"
Dongfang Hao said, "Eighth Prince, my wife is shy and dares not show her face."
Chu Qingxuan: "..."
I swear, I just didn't want to scare you. Actually, I don't mind showing my face or anything.
"Alright, today is a good day. Since Dongfang Aiqing is unwilling, then forget it."
Although the emperor disliked Dongfang Hao's attitude, he still spoke up to stop him.
His gaze fell on Dongfang Hao. After this war, he had seen Dongfang Hao's abilities. So, would he kill his master?
The Dragon Emperor was pondering this question.
After this little incident, everyone knew that Dongfang Hao already had someone he loved, but that didn't stop them from sending him concubines.
In China, having multiple wives and concubines is very normal.
As more and more beauties appeared in the General's Mansion, Chu Qingxuan couldn't help but praise them, saying, "These people are really beautiful."
Dongfang Hao didn't say anything after hearing this.
The next day, all the beauties were sent back.
"With so many beauties, didn't you ever think of keeping one?" Chu Qingxuan teased Dongfang Hao.
Dongfang Hao said, "No need."
Chu Qingxuan smiled and shrugged.
Chu Qingxuan lived in the General's Mansion, and everyone in the mansion assumed that Chu Qingxuan was their General's wife.
A gentle breeze swept through the pavilion as Qi Ling, Dongfang Hao's deputy general, walked towards Chu Qingxuan.
"Madam, the general has ordered me to protect you."
"No need." She didn't like having people following her.
Qi Ling pursed her lips and remained standing beside Chu Qingxuan, showing no intention of leaving.
Chu Qingxuan said, "Qi Ling, did your general tell you to listen to me?"
Upon hearing this, Qi Ling looked at Chu Qingxuan and nodded gently.
"Alright, I can go to the Fourth Prince's residence by myself. You don't need to come with me."
Qi Ling: "..."
In the end, Qi Ling obediently left.
After Chu Qingxuan arrived at the General's Mansion, Qi Ling became Dongfang Hao's deputy general.
Qi Ling had always believed that his mission was to protect Dongfang Hao. After he became the deputy general, the first mission Dongfang Hao gave him was to protect Chu Qingxuan.
At first he was unwilling, but later he discovered that this future general's wife held a different place in the general's heart.
After all, the general was willing to give up dozens of beauties for her.
However, no one has ever seen what this lady actually looks like.
Half an hour later, Chu Qingxuan stood at the gate of the Fourth Prince's residence. If Yue Jinyun hadn't insisted that she come, she wouldn't have been willing to come here.
Chu Qingxuan looked up at the plaque on the door and then went inside.
Following her memory, Chu Qingxuan arrived at Yue Jinyun's residence.
Upon seeing Chu Qingxuan, Yue Jinyun hurriedly grabbed Chu Qingxuan's hand and said as they walked, "Master Chu, I want to show you someone."
Chu Qingxuan was stunned for a moment. After walking a short distance with Yue Jinyun, she pointed to a woman and asked, "Master Chu, do you know that woman?"
Chu Qingxuan looked over, and if she wasn't mistaken, the person in the gorgeous clothes was indeed Peony from back then.
Chu Qingxuan nodded, "I know him."
Yue Jinyun pouted, "I knew she looked familiar. It turns out you really do know her, Master Chu."
Chu Qingxuan asked, "I haven't seen her since the fire."
But how did Peony end up in the Fourth Prince's residence?
Soon, Yue Jinyun gave her an answer.
