The large army continued to move forward. Xie Wei was Shushu's bodyguard. He sat next to the coachman as before and was responsible for protecting Shushu.

Occasionally, when the coachman needed to rest, he would drive the horses for him. Xie Wei's skills in driving a carriage were not inferior to those of the coachman, but he was better at riding horses.

He was born on the grassland and grew up riding a horse.

He was supposed to be the crown prince of Jing State, but in order to allow her own son to become the crown prince, the queen assassinated him several times when he was young.

He was still young at that time, his mother died early, and his mother's family was weak and could not protect him, so he had to fake his death and escape to Qi State, where he kept a low profile.

If, if he regains his status as the crown prince, then can he...

Xie Wei's heart was stirring, and some ideas seemed to burst out from his heart.

At night, the large army found a grassland and prepared to rest there for the night.

The masters all slept in luxurious carriages with beds.

The servants were setting up temporary tents to prepare for rest at night.

"Uncle Li, Sister Luoluo, you two should go and have a rest. I will guard the carriage today." Xie Wei said while sitting in the carriage.

Luoluo instructed: "Thank you, brother Wei, thank you for your hard work. If the young lady has anything to do at night, please call me at any time."

"Okay, Sister Luluo."

"Thank you, little brother. Thank you for your hard work tonight!"

The groom was in his 40s and couldn't stay up late. Besides, he had to be fully alert to drive the horse the next day. He didn't bother to be polite with Xie Wei. After thanking him, he went towards the servants' tent.

The tranquility of the night, like a black gem, deeply swallows up the hustle and bustle of the day.

Everything was silent, with only the crickets in the distance and the leaves nearby whispering in the breeze, as if telling of the mystery and depth of the night.

The carriage was hot and stuffy on a summer night. Shushu's throat was dry and he murmured in a daze, "Green radish, water..."

She seemed to be dreaming, yet also seemed to be awake.

He had been practicing martial arts since he was a child and had amazing hearing. Although Shushu's whisper was so soft that it was almost inaudible, he still heard it clearly.

According to the rules, he should have asked Luluo to serve the young lady with water, but he didn't do so.

The young man struggled for a long time, but finally he lifted the curtain of the lady's car...

It was already dark at night, and the curtains in the carriage were drawn, so it was extremely dark inside, without a single ray of light.

Half asleep and half awake, Shushu couldn't see anything, but she felt as if someone picked her up and was feeding her water.

The cold tea went into Shushu's mouth, and her throat no longer felt sore.

The girl hummed comfortably and fell into a deep sleep again.

The boy's forehead was already wet, and his fingers were still shaking. He had never hugged a girl before. It turned out that girls' bodies were different from theirs, men's. They looked thin, but felt unusually soft to the touch.

There was an obsessive look in his eyes and his fingers gently stroked her smooth cheek.

His throat rolled, and he couldn't control himself and lowered his head to kiss her pink lips.

The kiss started lightly and then gradually became stronger. The girl in her sleep frowned and moaned. Seeing that she was about to be woken up by his kiss, the boy had to let her go and leave the car.

The summer breeze at night blew on Xie Wei, making him a little more sober.

Xie Wei felt like he was going crazy. What was he doing just now?

Shushu, who was sleeping, had no idea what was happening.

The next afternoon, the large army finally arrived at the imperial tomb.

Since that day, Shushu has been avoiding Rong Shen intentionally or unintentionally.

Today Rong Shen came to see Shushu again, but Shushu declined his invitation on the grounds that the weather was too hot and she wanted to stay in her room.

Xie Wei saw the prince standing aside expressionlessly after being rejected by the young lady.

The resentment that had accumulated in his heart over the past few days finally dissipated by more than half, and he felt an indescribable sense of relief.

After observing for a while, Xie Wei discovered that the prince really liked the young lady, but the young lady had no romantic feelings for her cousin the prince.

Xie Wei stood in the dark, the corners of his mouth slightly raised in a cold smile, and he was planning with ill intentions how to cause more trouble to the arrogant prince.

Ancestor worship is a solemn and dignified ceremony, in which royal nobles and civil and military officials present gifts respectfully!

"May the ancestors protect us, the country prosper, and the people live in happiness and well-being! May the Great Qi Nation prosper forever and live as long as the Southern Mountains!"

The white-haired and white-bearded imperial teacher recited the blessing passionately on the altar, making Shushu feel the respect and awe that the ancients had for ancestor worship.

As a modern person, Shushu does not have much enthusiasm for ancestor worship.

In order to participate in the ancestor worship ceremony, Shushu got up very early. She resisted her sleepiness and forced herself to suppress the urge to yawn.

Finally, the civil and military officials finished worshipping their ancestors, and the next step was the ceremony for the royal family to worship their ancestors. As the name suggests, only the real royal family can participate in the ceremony.

Yun Shushu was not a member of the royal family, so she left the altar with the others under the guidance of the palace servants.

As soon as she returned to her residence, she saw a young man standing guard at her gate with a pale face and cold sweat on his forehead.

Shu Shu saw the faint traces of blood on his clothes and asked with concern: "Xie Wei, what happened to you?"

"Miss, Xie Wei was reckless today and broke the antique vase in Miss's room, so he was punished by the housekeeper." Xie Wei replied weakly.

In fact, this minor injury was nothing to Xie Wei, but he deliberately pretended to be so weak that he could not stand.

Shu Shu couldn't help feeling distressed when she saw the weak young man in front of her. He was obviously a noble prince, but he was forced to travel far away to a foreign land and was even punished by being beaten by servants.

"Xie Wei, come with me!"

Shushu is a doctor, and he has a kind heart. How could he just ignore the injured young man?

Moreover, her mission in this small world is to save ten thousand people. As long as she successfully saves ten thousand people, her mission will be considered successful.

Of course, she couldn't miss the opportunity to save Xie Wei. Helping him was also helping herself.

Shushu took out the medicine box and took out a white porcelain bottle, which contained the golden gun medicine she prepared by herself, "Sit down, take off your shirt, and I will help you apply the medicine."

Shushu is a doctor with modern thinking. Seeing a man with his upper body naked is a normal thing for her.

The young man in front of him was thin but not skinny, with perfectly smooth body lines, well-defined abdominal muscles, strong and powerful, and with his face, he was perfect and impeccable.

His shirt was not completely taken off, but was hanging loosely around his waist, which looked inexplicably seductive.

At some point, her ears started to feel hot and a blush appeared on her cheeks.

Xie Wei's eyes met Shushu's in mid-air, and Shushu quickly turned her head away in panic, lowered her head shyly and stopped looking at him.

When the girl's fingers dipped in the ointment touched his shoulders, those soft fingers seemed to carry magic.

Wherever she touched it seemed to be on fire, burning him. His whole body was numb, his eyes were bloodshot and he gritted his teeth, trying to suppress the urge to push her down.

Xie Wei was glad that his back was facing Shushu, so she couldn't see the hidden desire on his face.
