Cannon fodder She is targeted by yanderes in every dimension

Chapter 72 The Tyrant's Cannon Fodder Wife 14

*

It had been raining heavily outside since Yun Wu entered the attic. The sound of the dripping rain covered up most of the sounds coming from inside the room.

When the sudden rain stopped, the noise in the room also stopped, and the dark night was about to turn bright.

Yun Wu was already extremely tired. She was tiredly held in Qi Yu's arms. It was obvious that she had just finished something.

Even though her body was so weak and sore that she had no strength left, she still did not forget that she had to take a shower and go back before dawn, otherwise she might be discovered.

"It's almost dawn, I should go back..."

Just when Yun Wu was trying to get up, Qi Yu easily pulled her back into his arms.

His handsome eyebrows gradually widened, and when he was about to kiss her beautiful neck, she dodged him.

"What are you hiding from?"

"Don't, don't leave any marks there, my husband will see it..."

Yun Wu's eyes, which were slightly red, shed tears of grievance, and she shrank into Qi Yu's arms in a flattering manner.

However, he suddenly bent down as if in a rage, leaving a mark on her fair neck.

"Then let him see it, so that he knows that his wife is already mine."

Yun Wu’s face turned pale and she lowered her head timidly, with a feeling of uneasiness in her glass-like eyes.

Fortunately, after taking a bath and changing clothes, I returned to the bedroom in the Shangshu Mansion at dawn.

Yun Wu caught up on her sleep and slept until Lu Ziyin came back.

"Madam, I wanted to come back last night after I finished my work in the Shangshu Bureau, but it was already curfew time and the palace gates were closed, so I had no choice but to stay in the palace and attend the morning court the next day."

Lu Ziyin sat on the couch opposite Yun Wu and explained seriously. He looked serious as if he was afraid that Yun Wu would misunderstand that he stayed out all night because he had done something wrong.

Yun Wu, who was sitting opposite, put down the book in her hand after hearing this, with a soft smile on her face.

"I know, my husband has been busy all night, why don't you take a rest first?"

Yun Wu tried hard to act the same as usual in front of Lu Ziyin, but there was a hint of guilt and uneasiness in the depths of her beautiful eyes.

She never dared to tell Lu Ziyin about that matter...

"It's alright, Madam. I still have to pack my bags in the next two days. During the morning court today, His Majesty mentioned the secret tour to the north. I am on the list of people who will accompany the Emperor."

"Going incognito?"

Yun Wu asked in a daze. She vaguely remembered that Qi Yu seemed to have told her in her ear last night that he would not be able to see her for a while.

So he was... extra cruel last night...

"Yes, this is my first time accompanying His Majesty on an incognito tour. It will take about a month to come back."

Lu Ziyin said softly, with a hint of excitement in his tone. He gently held Yun Wu's hand and gave instructions.

"Madam, take good care of yourself during my absence. Leave all matters in the mansion to the servants. You are weak and must not tire yourself out."

Although Lu Ziyin felt a little regretful that he and Yun Wu had not consummated their marriage three months after their marriage, and now he had to leave home for another month, not everyone could go on an incognito tour, so this was a good opportunity for him to gain experience.

Yun Wu agreed absentmindedly. She felt happy and lonely at the same time, with surprise and joy alternating between them.

She was happy because Qi Yu was going to go on a secret tour for a month, so she wouldn't have to worry about being dragged around by Qi Yu for a while every day.

What's sad is that Lu Ziyin has to go with her, but this is not a bad thing as it allows her to be alone and calm down.

Yun Wu thought that after Lu Ziyin came back, she would tell Lu Ziyin about Qi Yu.

He is her husband, and no matter how much she tries to avoid him or forget him, she should tell him.

After Qi Yu's incognito team left the capital, Yun Wu was finally able to temporarily put aside the panic and vigilance in her heart.

But Qi Yu and Lu Ziyin would have people send her letters every day. However, she did not read a single word of Qi Yu's letter. After receiving it, she immediately secretly burned it together with Zhiqiu, for fear that it would be discovered.

She would always write back to Lu Ziyin and read his letters carefully. Most of them were about his concern for her. The only time he mentioned that his colleague brought a dress that his wife had sewn herself, and she was very envious.

Yun Wu found it funny that Lu Ziyin, who used to be an honest and dutiful man who only knew how to read sage books, was now trying to get her to make him some clothes in a roundabout way.

Seeing that Lu Ziyin was about to return, but there was no extra cloth in the mansion, Yun Wu simply took Zhiqiu to the cloth shop in the capital to buy some.

The manager of the cloth shop was strongly recommending high-quality cloth to Yun Wu.

"Madam, look at this cloth. It is the finest Shu brocade. Just one piece costs a thousand taels."

The steward spoke while holding a roll of thick dark green cloth in his hand, and showed Yun Wu the embroidery patterns on it.

"A thousand taels? That's too expensive..."

Zhiqiu couldn't help but whisper to Yunwu that Yunwu had seen her mother buy good cloth before her family fell into poverty, but although the cloth in front of her was of good quality, it was not worth so much silver.

Just when Yun Wu was about to decline politely, she heard someone's voice before her.

"How dare you cheat people like this when you are doing business under the emperor's feet?"

The person who came was Qi Yan. He was wearing a dark robe and had a handsome face. He looked less romantic and more steady than usual.

The steward lowered his body when he saw Qi Yan. There was no one in the capital who didn't know Qi Yan. He was a well-known playboy who often lingered in romantic places.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me..."

"Go, take out the best cloth in your shop and give it to this lady, otherwise... I will make your cloth shop closed."

Qi Yan's tone was brisk but threatening, and the man quickly agreed with a trembling voice and ran to the warehouse to get it.

Yun Wu and Zhi Qiu also bowed to Qi Yan.

"Your Highness has seen me."

"Madam, you don't have to be so polite..."

Qi Yan subconsciously reached out to help Yun Wu stand up. Yun Wu was stunned at first, then quickly pulled her hand back. She took a small step back and leaned towards Zhiqiu behind her, with her hands placed on her stomach with a distanced manner to maintain courtesy.

Qi Yan was originally passing by here, but when he accidentally saw such a familiar figure, he knew it was her.

"Madam, are you going to make some clothes? There are quite a few fine brocades in the storeroom of my mansion..."

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I just want to make two ordinary clothes for my husband."

Yun Wu was the first to decline, with a faint smile of gratitude on her face, but still revealing politeness and alienation.

A hint of disappointment flashed across Qi Yan's brows, but his face still had the same heartless smile as usual.

"It was originally intended for Lord Lu..."

Soon the steward brought the best cloth to Zhiqiu. After paying the money, Yun Wu found an excuse to leave.

Qi Yan stood in front of the cloth shop and watched Yun Wu get on the carriage, and then watched the carriage go away.

Until a humble servant came up to his ear and said:

"General Ye has arrived. Your Majesty, please go and see him as soon as possible."

"understood."

Qi Yan then withdrew his gaze and responded calmly, his romantic and affectionate eyes replaced by deep thoughts.

After Yun Wu bought the cloth and returned to the Shangshu Mansion, she started making clothes without stopping. After all, Lu Ziyin would be back in a few days.

It was already late in the day, and candles were lit in the bedroom. Yun Wu sat under the candles, carefully sewing the cloth in her hands.

"Madam, you have been busy all day, and it's already dark..."

Zhiqiu, who was standing by, walked in with some midnight snacks and said this. Yun Wu then took the time to raise her head and smile at her.

"My husband will be back in two days, and I want to finish the work sooner."

"It won't be too late to cut it slowly after you come back. It would be bad if Madam hurts her eyes."

Zhiqiu spoke earnestly, and then placed the fish soup he had asked the kitchen to prepare on the empty space on the table.

"Madam, drink some fish soup to replenish your body and continue tomorrow."

Yun Wu bit off the excess silk thread and temporarily wove the unfinished cloth on the table.

After doing manual work for a whole day, Yun Wu was indeed tired. She felt that her wrists were very painful. After moving them, she felt better.

Zhiqiu quickly served the delicious fish soup to Yun Wu.

"I have been watching the fire in the kitchen, so it must taste good!"

Because Yun Wu was weak, Zhiqiu would always prepare some nourishing meals for her from time to time, and Yun Wu would drink them all up obediently.

But today...

Yun Wu lowered her eyes and looked at the steaming fish soup in front of her. Somehow she couldn't muster up an appetite at all, until the strong smell of the fish soup continued to rise with the steam.

Yun Wu suddenly felt her stomach churning and she felt very uncomfortable. She quickly raised her hand to cover her lips to suppress the nausea, and her other hand unconsciously pushed the fish soup away.

"lady!"

Zhiqiu's face changed drastically. Seeing Yun Wu's uncomfortable look, he quickly put his hand on her back to try to make her feel better.

Yun Wu still covered her mouth and nose with a frown on her face. It was not until Zhiqiu brought the fish soup to a farther place that she gradually felt better.

What's wrong with her...
