Luo Shenyuan frowned and asked, "Are you too tired?"
"Of course, a day or two will do. You're strong and healthy, but I don't have your stamina!"
Men, as long as they're open to sex, they're the ones they adore. They can't wait to be together every day, and he's much more energetic than others. "Tell me when you're tired..." He continued to kiss, the skin beneath his lips trembling, ignited by his breath. The two of them entangled together, igniting a prairie fire. Faster and faster, the room grew hot.
At this time, there were footsteps approaching, the child was crying non-stop, and there was a rapid knock on the door: "Madam, Madam, I can't comfort the young master anymore..."
Yining's little lucky star came with wailing and vague calls of "Goddess".
Luo Shenyuan was frozen, his face covered in sweat. The knocks on the door continued. Luo Yining saw his loosened underwear and his solid chest. His face flushed: "I told you... he would cry!"
Wet nurse Qiu Niang.
She had been the young master Baoger's wet nurse for six months. Despite her wanderings and even the ravages of war in Xuanfu, she had never felt so nervous. After she carried the young master into the inner chamber, Lord Luo leaned against the bedside of Qian Gong, his expression rather grim. He was unhurriedly tying his clothes. His hands were beautiful, after all, the hands that held the power of life and death.
The lady had already stretched out her hand, urging: "Give it to me quickly."
Qiu Niang was certain that she saw Lord Luo looking at Madam with dissatisfaction, which made her shudder.
Baoger finally landed in his mother's arms and leaned against her chest. Luo Yining asked Qiuniang to leave.
Qiu Niang was very grateful and she immediately took her leave quickly.
Luo Yining slowly opened the clothes. Baoger finally found the right place with his nose, scratching with his hands like a puppy. But he swallowed obediently and stopped crying. Yining was puzzled. Could it be that his taste was different? Otherwise, why would he be so picky? What was the difference?
She looked up and saw Luo Shenyuan standing beside the bed.
Luo Shenyuan might really want to throw this little thing away, so there was a deep coldness in his eyes, or perhaps it was dissatisfaction.
He climbed onto the bed and sat down next to her. He said calmly, "You can't sleep with him."
Luo Yining helplessly pinched Baoger's soft little hand: "The wet nurse really can't coax him..."
Luo Shenyuan waved his hand and said, "What's there to be coaxed out of? I was also raised by a wet nurse when I was little. If it really doesn't work, then wean him off the breast. It's not good for a child to be clingy to his mother. It's best for him to be independent early on."
He's only six months old and can't even walk! How can he be independent?
At this time, someone came outside to deliver a message. The message was urgent. Luo Shenyuan pondered for a moment and went out.
He stood at the foot of the stairs, the night wind carrying a biting chill. The voice of the person who came to report was very low: "Lord... Lu Jiaxue is back. He brought his men into the capital and has already reported to the palace!"
He had indeed returned! The deputy general had probably not killed him. And he had returned to the palace to report, so he must have returned with some military achievements.
"...Just keep an eye on him." Luo Shenyuan thought for a moment and gave the order, then returned to the inner room.
Luo Yining finally coaxed Bao Ge'er back to sleep. While burping him, he asked, "What happened? You came to deliver a message in the middle of the night."
Luo Shenyuan looked straight at her face: "Lu Jiaxue is back."
Yining paused while patting the baby's burp.
"He is not dead. I guess he returned from the battle and the emperor met him in the middle of the night." Luo Shenyuan continued.
After a lifetime of honor and military exploits, he truly lived on. Yi Ning's emotions were complicated. She knew Luo Shenyuan and Lu Jiaxue had come to blows, and that Luo Shenyuan had indeed plotted against Lu Jiaxue, not just for her sake, but for many other reasons. But could Luo Shenyuan defeat Lu Jiaxue? In their previous life, until her death, neither of them had a clear outcome.
Luo Shenyuan kept watching Luo Yining's expression; he was very good at it. When he saw her expression, he was certain of one thing: she didn't dislike Lu Jiaxue. If she said anything more, he might lose control.
"So what are your plans?" Luo Yining asked.
"I'd better not tell you this. Just like before, just don't go see him." He bent down and kissed her forehead, his lips were cold.
*
When she woke up the next day, Luo Shenyuan was already up, preparing to go to the cabinet. He was a different person now, with even less free time. He was quite impressive, but Yi Ning felt a little unfamiliar watching him in his second-rank court robes. Now she was the wife of a cabinet minister, so why couldn't she adapt?
After sending him out of the room, Yining turned back to put on her makeup.
Bao'er asked the wet nurse to take him to the yard to play. Luo Yining remembered that today was the day Luo Yilian came home, and it had been over a year since they last saw each other. While combing her hair with a comb dipped in osmanthus water, she asked Zhenzhu, "I heard that Luo Yilian married a merchant from Suzhou as his second wife. What's going on?"
Based on her understanding of the Luo family, Luo Yilian couldn't possibly be a second wife, let alone marry a mere merchant. No matter how wealthy she was, she was still considered inferior to the class of scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants. She felt that Luo Chengzhang's temper meant that even if he married Luo Yining to a poor scholar, who would provide him with financial support year after year, he wouldn't marry his daughter off to a merchant.
Pearl lowered her voice and whispered in her ear, "You don't know, but it's actually quite interesting! This happened six months ago and caused quite a stir."
"When your incident happened, the Lu family only said they had married the Seventh Young Lady, so no one knew about it. But the incident that happened six months later was a huge deal. The Sixth Young Lady had a hard time finding a husband in the capital. No one from a decent family wanted her, saying she would bring unrest to the family and bring disgrace to the family. The Second Master was furious and anxious. If it weren't for the Fourth Young Master's mediation, the Second Master might have even punished the Sixth Young Lady according to family rules."
"What's the matter?" Yining put down the comb.
