Even so, those civil and military officials in the Central Plains still dared to mock the Fengyuan people, saying that they were barbarians from the north, uncivilized, with brothers marrying their elder brother's wives, sons inheriting their father's wives, and one woman serving multiple men.
They act as if they are so noble, with one wife and multiple concubines at home, as well as various maids, yet they still go out and cheat on their wives.
Although there are indeed many customs in their northern land that are difficult to understand, from his father to his uncle, they are all good men who only marry one wife.
Naturally, he was influenced by his surroundings and kept a clean record for his future Kehadun.
What about Lu Huan?
Yan Xuanye suddenly wondered, if Lu Huan was drunk, would a maid climb into his bed? Would he secretly cheat and be discovered by Su Qingci? Would she be disappointed in him?
If Lu Huan takes concubines, has many maids, and visits prostitutes like Pei Ji...
To be honest, Yan Xuanye felt that it would be better for Su Qingci to marry him.
At least he was clean physically and mentally, and he had no intention of touching anyone else.
He grabbed Xianyue's rebellious hand with disgust, and used such force that he almost broke her wrist.
Xianyue cried out in pain, "Your Highness."
A thin layer of mist appeared in her eyes, making her look a little pitiful, but Yan Xuanye showed no mercy.
"I just gave you a chance to get out."
"How dare you disobey me! Are you so bold as to climb into my bed?"
"Your servant, your servant is just..."
Her eyes were filled with tears, but her eyes were moving around, and Yan Xuanye knew that she was trying to make an excuse.
He recalled the scene in his dream just now, when he tied Su Qingci's hands behind her back and kissed her forcefully.
There was also a layer of shimmering light in her eyes, but her eyes were not as cunning as Xianyue's, who was trying to find an excuse to exonerate herself. In her dream, she was glaring at him fiercely.
It was as if she hated him so much that her teeth itched to grit her teeth at him, but she was powerless under his control.
At that time, Yan Xuanye suddenly felt like teasing her. In his dream, he held her in his arms and kissed her hard.
But she was dissatisfied and powerless, so she could only glare at him.
Now that I think about it, it’s so cute.
But for now, he had to deal with this audacious and stupid woman first.
Yan Xuanye blew a whistle, and the wind whistled outside, accompanied by a few light footsteps. After a while, there were several regular knocks on the door.
Shi Zhuo stood outside the door politely, "Your Highness?"
Yan Xuanye released his right hand that was restraining Xianyue and pushed her hard, "Shi Zhuo, come in!"
"yes."
Shi Zhuo pushed open the door and walked in quietly. Seeing Xianyue rubbing her wrist at the end of the bed with a pitiful look on her face, he suddenly felt a headache.
Why are there always women who don't know how to live or die and dare to climb into His Highness's bed?
He had to clean up the mess again and bear the wrath of His Highness.
"Take this foolish woman away and punish her."
"yes."
Xianyue looked at Shi Zhuo who was coming towards her in horror. Before she could open her mouth to plead for herself, Shi Zhuo came up and blocked her mouth, as if he had done it many times before, and his movements were terrifyingly skillful.
…
The next day, Su Qingci sat in her room and finished dressing. She casually asked, "Is the carriage ready?"
Zitan: "In reply to Madam, everything is ready."
"Okay, let's get going then."
Since she married Lu Huan, she had only lived in the general's mansion for three days. Fortunately, Lu Huan took her to the warehouse on the second day after their marriage, otherwise she really didn't know where it was.
The carriage headed towards the general's mansion, while on the other side, Yan Xuanye ordered Shi Zhuo to inquire about the news and came back, and was listening to his report.
"how?"
"I have already made inquiries. The gatekeeper said that Madam Su needs a carriage and needs to go back to the General's Mansion to pick up something today."
"Your Highness, this is a map of the General's Mansion."
Yan Xuanye took the map and secretly memorized it in his mind.
…
The warehouse was very large, and most of the items inside were gifts given by elders during festivals and holidays, and some were precious items bestowed by the emperor on Lu Huan when he returned from Desheng last time.
Just picking out the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts for the emperor and empress gave Su Qingci a headache for a moment.
She had looked at the list of records in the warehouse, which included a Ruyi with eight auspicious patterns symbolizing "longevity and peace" and a painting of calligraphy with the image of the Moon Palace.
I just don't know where it is, I need to look for it.
Xiaohe and Zitan were both guarding the warehouse door. Su Qingci was about to turn around and call them in to help him look for it.
Suddenly, a pair of strong hands reached out from behind her waist and hugged her tightly.
Su Qingci's body stiffened for a moment, then quickly relaxed again, saying, "Stop messing around. Now that you're here, help me find the Ruyi handle with the eight auspicious patterns."
Seeing that she did not resist, Yan Xuanye moved closer to her, resting his chin lightly on her shoulder and leaning forward to see her expression.
Su Qingci didn't hear his response, so she turned her head to look. It wouldn't have mattered if she hadn't looked, but once she did, she was terrified.
This man!
She recalled that it was the man who bought the eagle that she met at the flower and bird market last time!
"You...how did you get in!?" She stiffened her body and then tried hard to pull away his big hand that was across her waist.
Xiaohe and Zitan were guarding the door, so it was impossible for him to come in for no reason.
So when he hugged her just now, Su Qingci thought it was Lu Huan who came back, so she didn't suspect anything.
Unexpectedly, it was him, this scoundrel.
He was very strong, with his hands across her waist, restraining her tightly from behind.
Su Qingci grabbed the back of his hand hard, leaving bloody marks, but the man seemed to be unable to feel it.
A pair of pitch-black eyes fixed their gazes on hers, making her feel creepy.
"Who are you! And how did you get in? There was clearly someone at the door!" she said angrily.
Yan Xuanye said calmly, "Oh, I just made a little noise and they came over to see."
He seemed to be in a good mood, and even had the leisure to release one hand and touch her cheek. "Hiss, so smooth."
Su Qingci turned her head away in disgust, not wanting to even look at him.
Yan Xuanye's hand suddenly fell empty, but he didn't get angry. He pressed her body and forced her to turn around, forcing her to face him.
Behind him was a storage shelf filled with valuable items, so Su Qingci didn't dare move around, for fear that they would be broken by accident.
He stretched out his hands from Su Qingci's waist, wrapped them around her, and held her in his arms. With a shield behind him, she had nowhere to escape.
"Who are you?" Su Qingci asked again.
