Madam General, please run slower.

In the courtyard.

Yu Xun was leaning back in the recliner where he had sat during the day. There was a plate of cut fruits on the stone table beside him, which he could reach with his hand. He felt so comfortable.

Li waved his hand to let Chunmei step back and then walked towards him.

After sitting down on the stone chair diagonally opposite Yu Xun, Li unceremoniously pulled the fruit plate towards him, his intention to stay away being particularly obvious.

"Not acting anymore?" Yu Xun couldn't help laughing when he saw her move.

"General, what role do you want to see me play? A gentle and elegant lady from a noble family, or a passionate and lively innkeeper?" Li supported her chin with one hand and picked up the fruits in the fruit plate with the other hand. There was a tenderness in her eyes, and she really looked like a delicate lady from a noble family.

"The kind where she acts like calling her beloved husband." Yu Xun blurted out without even thinking.

Hearing his words, Li was stunned for a moment, and stared at Yu Xun with dark eyes like the abyss, "General, you like this? I'll pay you extra if you want to act."

"Ahem." Yu Xun was so annoyed by her look that he wanted to slap himself in the face for what he had just done. "I was just joking."

Li Ke had heard too many men use "I was just joking" as an excuse to cover up their self-esteem, so she didn't dwell on the topic anymore.

Yu Xun vaguely sensed that Li was in a bad mood, so he changed the subject at the right time, "I have something to tell you."

Li spent a long time picking out a fresh date from the fruit plate before taking a satisfying bite. "Are you sure there are no other ears in this yard?"

"Madam is injured. I'm worried that it's not excessive to strengthen our defense." Yu Xun pointed at the fruit plate and motioned for her to hand it over.

Li pretended not to see his gesture, ate all the dates in her hand in one or two bites, and threw a piece of cut pear into her mouth.

"Strengthening defense is not excessive, but strengthening surveillance is excessive."

"What are you talking about, madam? Why would I want to spy on you?" Yu Xun half-supported himself and reached out to grab the fruit plate, but Li directly put the fruit plate into his arms.

"Okay, I'm not in the mood to play some loving couple scene with you, just tell me what you want from me."

Yu Xun looked at Li's actions to protect the food and inexplicably recalled the scene when he and she were fighting over pig's trotters. He couldn't help laughing. The way she protected the food didn't seem like she was acting.

"Aren't you good at acting? Think about how to pull him off."

Yu Xun thought about it and reached out to take out a piece of paper from his arms. He stood up as if handing it to her, and sat down on the stone chair next to Li very naturally. While she was taking the paper, he successfully grabbed a date.

It's not meat, so why be so stingy? Li generously placed the fruit plate in front of him and focused on reading the contents on the paper.

"Minister of War, Jiang Qianzhang." This name is so familiar, Minister of War, and his last name is Jiang, could it be...

There is only one Shangshu with the surname Jiang. Isn’t he Jiang Wan’s biological father and Yu Xun’s father-in-law?

"Fuck, are you trying to kill your own relatives for the sake of justice?"

"Little girl, don't say bad words." Yu Xun looked at the fruit plate in front of him and suddenly ran out of ideas. "How are you going to act next?"

"Isn't it easy to deal with this person? Let's wait and see if the news gets out."

Li suddenly lost interest when he looked at the thin piece of paper in front of him. He thought he could get a prime minister-level figure, but in the end he was just a small minister. It was like using a butcher knife to kill a chicken.

"What news? Should I take action?"

"I advise you not to." Li supported his chin with one hand and stretched out his index finger with the other hand, tapping the table unconsciously.

"The emperor is very smart. If he is caught, this show will be in vain. Of course, if you are sure of your secret power, you can add fuel to the fire."

"So what is the news?" After secretly wrangling with the emperor for so long, wouldn't he not know that they couldn't do anything openly?

"Of course it's the news that I was injured and no longer stupid." Li looked at him as if he was a fool. With such intelligence, how dare he threaten her to step on the sky? Was he acting before, creating a smart persona for himself?

Yu Xun was irritated by her eyes, and his tone unconsciously became a little impatient, "Of course I know that this news will spread, but what does this have to do with the Jiang family?"

"Don't you understand the wife you married?" Li asked back.

Yu Xun was holding back his anger but before he could vent it, he had to swallow it back. He only went back home a few days a year and couldn't even call out their names, so how could he get to know them?

Seeing his expression, Li still had something she didn't understand, so she patiently explained to him, "Your wife Jiang Wan is not a quiet person."

"She can't compete with me, so she's afraid that I'll divert your attention. If I were stupid, it would be fine, but now that I'm awake, she'll feel a sense of crisis. If I stir up trouble a little more, she'll panic and ask her parents for help."

"Whether it's the assassins or the news of my awakening, we should lead the source to the Jiang family. We don't need to do too much, just arouse the emperor's suspicion. No matter what the Jiang family does next, as long as they move, they will be targeted by the emperor."

"Once the emperor's suspicion arises, the charge is basically established."

Jiang Wan's affection was finally wasted. Look, the dog not only showed no gratitude but also bit her back.

Li took a piece of pear from the fruit plate to moisten his throat before continuing, "That dog emperor wouldn't want the news of my awakening to be widely publicized."

"He has always thought that I am bringing shame to the royal family. He knows in his heart how he has treated me in the past thirteen years. There is no longer any father-daughter relationship between us. He is even more afraid that the news of my awakening will shake the situation in the court and increase your power."

After all, Yu Xun, the General Zhennan, is a well-known figure with military power and popular support. Now he has a wife of royal blood. Those politicians might smell the scent and come here, and maybe even start to eye her belly.

The word "dog emperor" made Yu Xun laugh. It was not that he wanted to be on guard against her, but she made people have to be on guard against her. From family disputes to the court situation, how many women in the inner court could do this? Not to mention him, if the emperor really understood this little princess, he would also be on guard against her.

"It seems like this is the first time you've talked so much to me." Yu Xun said with a chuckle.

"Well, there's no need to explain so much to smart people."

Yu Xun:......

"Okay, take a good rest. I'll take care of the rest." Yu Xun was very generous and didn't get angry with a little girl. He would never admit that he was a fool. "If you need anything, let the housekeeper notify me."

"There is indeed something I need your help with."

"Oh, tell me about it." Yu Xun also reached out and threw a piece of pear into his mouth, looking at her with interest.

"Please prepare some cheap clothes for me. This situation may happen again."

Qianwu Dynasty's spiritual power was too weak, and Li was unwilling to give up the spiritual vein. But under the current circumstances, entering the palace would easily arouse the emperor's suspicion, so she could only go through the spiritual gathering formation. Although her spiritual power was a little less, a mosquito was still a piece of meat.

Li was speechless when she thought about the fact that she started bleeding whenever she used that formation. If the materials were sufficient, she would have improved it.

Hearing her talk about what happened just now, Yu Xun's expression couldn't help but become a little serious, "Why, what on earth is going on?"

"Stop interfering in the princess's affairs."

Li stretched and prepared to get up and go back to his room, "If you really care about me, prepare some supplements for me, the kind that can replenish blood."

"Who cares about you? I'm just afraid that you'll cause me trouble if you die."

Yu Xun snorted softly. He would get himself covered in blood at any time. Not to mention a human, even a dog would make him curious enough to take a few more glances. He was truly a man who didn't die after losing so much blood.

"Okay, little Xun, kneel down and greet me." Li waved his hand and walked away so casually, leaving Yu Xun alone there, swearing angrily.

Yu Xun: 凸(艹皿艹 ) He now wished that she would become a mute immediately.
