Drunk Bamboo

"Then... Your Majesty, do you have any..."

The next second, her red lips were attacked again.

This time, Xie Yuzhu had experience and responded gently.

Hua Qinfeng was out of control, as violent as a storm, greedily absorbing the scent that belonged only to her.

I don’t know how long it was, so long that Xie Yuzhu couldn’t breathe, he finally left reluctantly.

"Xie Yuzhu, do you still want to continue what was unfinished in the carriage?" Hua Qinfeng pressed on her and threatened, "If you provoke me again, you will bear the consequences!"

She took deep breaths, opened her eyes wide, and nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

Seeing how well-behaved she suddenly was, Hua Qinfeng's heart softened.

"Go to sleep sweetly." He tucked the quilt in for her and said softly.

"Um……"

Xie Yuzhu closed her eyes, and after her breathing became steady, she quickly fell asleep.

She was really tired tonight and fell asleep immediately after relaxing.

Hua Qinfeng, however, was restless, staring at the sky and silently chanting the Heart Purification Mantra.

Hey, Xie Yuzhu, why can you fall asleep so quickly?

It turns out that she doesn't treat him as her husband.

She responded to the kiss just now, does that mean that at least she is not resisting him?

He is smart in everything except love.

Forget it, she is still young, I can only wait for her to become enlightened.

There are some sufferings that he can only endure alone.

Sooner or later, I will ask her for it back.

No sleep for one night.

The next day, Hua Qinfeng got up before dawn.

When I walked out of Changfeng Courtyard, the sun hadn't even risen yet.

Chaoyang heard the noise, went out one step later than him and followed closely.

"Your Majesty, you got up really early."

Huaqinfeng defaults.

It's not that he got up early, it's that he didn't sleep at all.

There is a cool breeze outside the city gate.

A group of people slowly walked out of the city.

Xiao Zhong, who was leading the team, heard the sound of horses whipping behind him, so he pulled the reins and the team stopped.

Hua Qinfeng came riding at full speed, pulled the reins not far from the team, got off the horse, handed the reins to Chaoyang, and walked towards Xiaozhong.

"You're here after all." Xiao Zhong also got off the horse.

"Xie Yuzhu asked me to come and see you off secretly so that you wouldn't find out. But farewell is a matter between two people. If you don't know, then it's not really a farewell." He smiled faintly.

Xiao Zhong showed a fatherly smile: "The prince has not changed at all. Even after getting married and even in Zhongdu, the prince is still the free and unrestrained prince in the west."

The two of them walked out of the team side by side, no one followed them, and they chatted alone.

"Why is the fourth girl missing?" He glanced at the team but did not find Xiao Bingxin.

"From now on, there will only be three men in the Xiao family, and there will no longer be a fourth young lady." Xiao Zhong sighed slightly.

"What happened to her? Even if she is willful and does something wrong, she will not be punished by father. I will go and beg father and mother." He said nervously.

"No need to go. She stayed in Zhongdu voluntarily. She would rather be King Wen's concubine than go back to Xilin with me." She stopped him and explained helplessly.

"I'll go find her and tie her up and bring her back to Xilin!"

I am so angry. This is unfilial!

What made him even more angry was that Xiao Bingxin did not know how to cherish the comfortable life in the west, which was the place he longed for the most.

"The heart is no longer here, so it's useless to bring back a body." Xiao Zhong smiled bitterly.

"She is the daughter of a pillar of the nation, the fourth daughter of one of the four great families, how could she be a concubine? How could she be so obsessed with it!"

Hua Qinfeng really didn't understand her behavior.

"I don't know how much of what happened last night was done by her, but from your angry eyes, I can probably guess a little. I'm grateful that you and the princess didn't expose her on the spot. As a father, I didn't fulfill my responsibilities and didn't teach her well. It's all my fault as a father. No matter what wrong she did to you or the princess, I apologize here today."

Hua Qinfeng didn't want to mention it. Even if Xiao Bingxin used him or even poisoned him, he would not tell Xiao Zhong because he didn't want him to worry.

The voice dropped: "She is she, you are you."

But Xiao Zhong still discovered the clue himself.

"I severed my father-daughter relationship with her. Perhaps this way, she can live a stable life in Zhongdu."

"In the future, if the prince and princess meet her in Zhongdu, please do not argue with her about the past and future. If she makes a mistake again, please give her a lecture if you are willing. If she does not listen, you do not need to worry about it. She has chosen the path, and she can decide how to go on."

She looked at him in amazement: "Old Xiao, you love her the most..."

Looking up at the morning light in the east, he said, "I am not only her father, but also the commander of the 100,000-strong Xiao Family Army. Many people are wary of the Xiao Family Army, but even more are afraid and terrified."

Following his gaze, Hua Qinfeng saw the faint light in the sky.

"Father may say so, but I believe in you, Old Xiao, and I also believe that the Xiao family army, who have fought with me through life and death, only fight to protect the people of Rao Country."

She patted his shoulder with relief, her eyes firm:

"Good! We will fight only for the people of Rao! This is the mission of the Xiao Family Army!"

Xiao Zhong left at the dawn.

Hua Qinfeng stood outside the city gate, quietly watching his back disappear on the horizon, before turning around and returning home.

Without saying a word, he went straight back to Changfeng Courtyard.

"Your Majesty, are you back from court so early today?"

Xie Yuzhu was just about to get up when she saw Hua Qinfeng coming back earlier than usual and asked him a question.

"I didn't go to the morning court." Hua Qinfeng sat on the edge of the bed without any energy.

"You went to see General Xiao off?"

Xie Yuzhu, who was about to get out of bed to wash, did not move. Seeing this, Yun Ling put the clothes in her hand back on the rack and quietly left the room.

"Yeah." He responded dejectedly.

"Your Highness, are you thinking about General Xiao?" Xie Yuzhu asked softly.

"Xie Yuzhu, I want to go back to the west..." He leaned his head towards Xie Yuzhu and fell into her arms.

The soft quilt and fresh smell made him feel at ease.

"Okay, let's think of a way and go back to the west together." She stroked his hair gently and comforted him.

There is Xiaozhong in the western frontier, which must be more comfortable than Zhong.

"Hmm..." He buried his head deeply in his arms.

"Your Highness, it's time for me to get up." Xie Yuzhu was pushed into the bed.

"I haven't slept all night, stay with me for a while..." He put his arm around her waist and held her in his arms.

Xie Yuzhu struggled twice, but it was no use, so she just let him hold her.

He closed his eyes, with dark circles under his eyes, and looked very tired.

"Your Highness didn't sleep well? Was it because of the aphrodisiac poison? Or was it because General Xiao was leaving?"

"Um……"

"My Lord, I told you that holding the poison is bad for your health. You can wake me up."

"Um……"

"Your Highness still wants to be poisoned, because he didn't suffer enough last night."

"Um……"

"Your Majesty..."

Xie Yuzhu then realized that Hua Qinfeng was just responding and didn't hear what she was saying at all.

"Are you really asleep?"

"Is it so easy to fall asleep holding me?"

He sighed softly, "It seems that you are not poisoned. This body has no appeal to you at all."

Unconsciously, Xie Yuzhu closed her eyes and fell asleep.
