He wanted to practice all the postures he had secretly seen in the picture book before, but Su Qingci's body had not recovered yet, and he fainted after only three or four times...

Unlike Su Qingci, who was pampered and had a noble body, Yan Xuanye had an extremely good physical condition. After all, he had been practicing martial arts since he was a child.

Today was also his first time to taste the forbidden fruit, and his addiction and desire were not yet extinguished, but Su Qingci had already fainted, so he could only stop in a hurry.

Yan Xuanye called a maid to fetch water. The maid who passed by him with a bucket of water looked up and accidentally saw the scratch at the corner of his mouth, and then hurriedly lowered her head.

After the maids left, Yan Xuanye carried Su Qingci into the bathtub and washed her.

He didn't dare to take a bath for too long. The weather was getting colder and Su Qingci hadn't recovered yet. If he caught a cold, he would easily catch a cold.

Fortunately, the mattress on the couch was made of wolfskin, which was very warm and she didn't have to worry about being cold.

Yan Xuanye changed her clothes and then held her in his arms and slowly fell asleep.

He had a beautiful thought, and even imagined how Su Qingci would change his attitude towards him after waking up.

But the reality is completely the opposite.

……

In the early morning, people were hurrying outside the tent. Su Qingci woke up very early and could even hear the footsteps outside the tent.

Everyone was busy packing up and preparing to withdraw, but the two of them were the only ones who felt as peaceful as if they were in paradise.

Yan Xuanye was sleeping soundly, with one hand behind her head and the other on Su Qingci's waist, his head resting on her shoulder.

Su Qingci just took a look and turned away in disgust.

But her action caused something to raise its head.

Yan Xuanye was half asleep and noticed that she had turned her back, then he hugged her tighter. Something was facing her majestically.

Su Qingci's whole body stiffened.

She didn't know if it was because she woke up early in the morning or because she didn't want to be around him, but she actually felt a little nauseous.

Yan Xuanye rubbed her neck and asked, "Why did you wake up so early?"

Su Qingci said unhappily, "It's so noisy outside, how can I sleep?"

Yan Xuanye held her tightly, "It is indeed a bit noisy, just hold on a little longer, and when we return to the palace, it will stop noisy."

Su Qingci didn't reply. She was still thinking about how to get the message to Lu Guang.

Now she couldn't leave the tent and had no paper or pen. In two days, Yan Xuanye would take her back to the palace of Fengyuan State. Then she would have no way to contact Lu Guang. She was anxious and angry.

While she was thinking, Yan Xuanye stretched out his right hand and began to unbutton her collar.

Su Qingci noticed his action, was stunned for a second and then quickly pushed his arm away.

The one who was more shocked than her was Yan Xuanye.

Isn't it said that after a man touches a woman, she will submit to him? Why is Su Qingci still so resistant to him?

Su Qingci sat up straight, with lingering hatred in his eyes, "You got what you wanted last night, now you can let me go."

Yan Xuanye was stunned and frowned, "Who told you that I have already got what I want?"

Su Qingci asked stubbornly, "Isn't it?"

"Don't you just want my body?" She angrily picked up a pillow and threw it at him. "Now you have it, right? Why are you still refusing to let me go?!"

Yan Xuanye sneered as if he had heard a joke, gritted his teeth and turned his head away.

Not long after, he turned back, trying to suppress his anger, and asked her, "What do you think of me?"

Su Qingci rolled his eyes and turned away, angrily saying, "What can I think of you?"

"You are full of calculations, you forcibly snatched someone's wife, and you tried to defame someone else's innocence. You did not do anything a normal person would do. Even so, do you still think you are a good person?"

Yan Xuanye pulled her hands and forced her to turn around. "I admit that the way I got you was dishonorable, but that was only because I love you and want you."

Su Qingci's brows were filled with disgust, and he struggled hard, "Love? Do you know what love is?"

"Is taking by force also considered love?" she questioned.

Yan Xuanye felt sad when he saw this. He didn't know why things were so different from what he had imagined, and why she still resisted and hated him so much?

Seeing Su Qingci struggling like crazy, he felt extremely annoyed. He grabbed the person's wrist and forced him into his arms.

"Robbery is also love. I admit that my methods were not fair, but I did not hurt you, nor did I hurt Lu Huan."

Su Qingci struggled restlessly in his arms, but Yan Xuanye held her arms and waist tightly, making it impossible for her to move. "I am jealous of him, but now his life and death, as well as your mother's, are in your hands."

Su Qingci froze all over and kicked him fiercely, "What do you mean?"

Yan Xuanye: "Your Nanchang Emperor asked Lu Huan to suppress the rebellion, but he only gave Lu Huan 50,000 soldiers. This... you don't know, right?"

Su Qingci really didn't know that not long after Lu Huan left, she was captured by Lu Feng and his men, and she didn't even have time to receive Lu Huan's letter to report that he was safe.

Moreover, not long after Lu Huan went to the battlefield, Lu Guang was also called to the battlefield, so she knew nothing about what happened on the battlefield.

"Prince Ning brought 100,000 soldiers to attack Yizhou, and Yizhou is far away from home. Even if Lu Huan doesn't have enough manpower, he has to apply to the emperor first if he wants more people. Only after the emperor agrees can he send troops to Yizhou. The timing in between..."

"Are you sure that Lu Huan will be safe?"

"Prince Ning rebelled, but he attacked Yizhou, which is closest to Youzhou. If he is short of men, it would be much faster to recruit more soldiers than to transfer them from Shangjing."

"Although I promised King Ning to lend him troops before, whether to lend or not is just a matter of my words."

Noticing Su Qingci's stiffness, his hands relaxed a little, gently stroking her cheek, and said, "Ah Ci, if you make me happy, I won't lend troops to King Ning, okay?"

"I am about to withdraw my troops. There is no fighting in Puzhou anymore, and Lu Guang still has 60,000 troops. Think about it, if these 60,000 troops can go to support Yizhou, wouldn't Lu Huan be much safer?"

He guided her step by step, leading her into his trap.

Yan Xuanye thought that the reason why she was so resistant to him now was only because they were not very friendly when they first met, which left a bad impression on her.

Besides, she already has someone else in her heart, so it would naturally take more effort for her to accept him again.

As long as she stays with him and he treats her well, she will fall in love with him one day.

He can afford to wait.

Su Qingci listened to Yan Xuanye's words and naturally understood the seriousness of the matter. She closed her eyes in despair and stopped talking, but she felt aggrieved and angry in her heart.

Yan Xuanye sighed softly, then gathered her clothes and said, "I was too anxious last night. I apologize to you, okay?"
