Forced to become a delicate companion of a paranoid lord

After lying in bed for several days without being able to rest, Xie Wei leaned against a soft pillow on the big bed, feeling listless and lacking energy.

There were no points on the system panel now, but looking at Gesang standing not far away, Xie Wei curled the corners of his lips.

Although the plan to travel around the continent failed, fortunately the result was not bad.

Just like what Sarr thought, Xie Wei would choose the option that is most beneficial to him and makes him most comfortable between the two options.

After all, his needs were not high.

It is very cold in the mornings and evenings in the Far North Territory in spring. It is relatively warm from ten in the morning to four in the afternoon, but Xie Wei still wore a full set of cold-proof gear.

Sal was very tough on this matter. Although the man didn't say it, Xie Wei knew that Sal was very angry for not taking away the cold-proof props before, so when he was asked to wear the cold-proof props that he could not take off, he was not as resistant as before.

Anyway, Sal would help him take off his cold-proof gear every night and put it on again the next morning, so it didn't matter if he couldn't take it off himself.

He reached out to fiddle with the jewelry in his hand. The bracelet that Sal had put on him today was the kind that combined a ring and bracelet into one. The ring was inlaid with a fiery red magic crystal, and a thin silver chain hung on the back of his hand.

There were many marks on the back of his hands and wrists that had not yet disappeared, which looked a little scary, but Xie Wei didn't feel any pain at all. Sal had taken care of him gently enough, it was just that his skin was too fragile.

When Sal came in with the tray, Xie Wei had already lay down again. He was still a little tired. He didn't feel any discomfort in his body, but he felt weak and wanted to sleep.

Gesan stepped forward and took the tray from the lord, on which was Xie Wei and Sal's lunch.

Walking to the bed, Sal first reached out and touched Xie Wei's cheek and forehead. He felt relieved only after he felt that Little Rose's body temperature was normal.

These days he was always very worried that Little Rose would have a fever. After that day, he regretted not being able to control himself, but fortunately, Little Rose had no other discomfort except tiredness.

Leaning over and kissing his partner who had already opened his eyes, Sal said in a warm voice: "Would you like to get up and eat something before going back to sleep?"

Xie Wei was not actually hungry. He had eaten breakfast with Sal in the morning. He had been lying down all morning and had no need to consume any energy.

But he nodded anyway, and obediently let Sal carry him out of the quilt.

When Shevi slept with Sal at night, he wore a light silk robe as pajamas, and in the morning when Sal left, he would change him into thicker plush pajamas.

Without Sal to provide a heat source, Shevy would be a little warmer in her plush pajamas.

After Sal picked up the man, he wrapped Xie Wei in a thin blanket, and then carried Xie Wei to the dining table and sat down.

Instead of putting Xie Wei down, he let Xie Wei sit in his arms. Sar took the soup that Gesan served and fed it to Xie Wei.

Xie Wei looked at the spoon that was handed to his lips. After smelling the familiar taste, he was a little reluctant, but under Sal's gaze, he still opened his mouth and drank the soup.

"Sal, I don't like this." Xie Wei has been drinking this soup for a few days. Although the taste is better than before, he still doesn't like the Snow Lion broth very much.

Sal never drinks this soup, but he drinks it. He says it is good for his health.

"Drink another bowl, and you won't drink it tomorrow." Sal coaxed, and then put another spoonful of soup to Little Rose's mouth.

"That's what you said yesterday, and you didn't drink it, I was the only one drinking it." After opening his mouth and drinking the soup, Xie Wei complained in a low voice.

"My physique is very good. If I take too much supplements, I will have a nosebleed. It is best for you to drink it, so you should drink more and your body will be better. I will give you something else to drink tomorrow, okay?" After giving Little Rose a soothing kiss on the forehead, Sal fed Xie Wei all the soup in the bowl spoonful by spoonful after explaining.

After feeding them all, Sal asked Gesan to add another bowl. This time Xie Wei did not complain. He knew that Sal did it for his health. Besides, magical beasts like the Snow Lion were difficult to catch. He was not a child anymore and Sal could not worry too much.

After drinking two bowls of soup and eating some other food with Sal, Xie Wei leaned in Sal's arms and watched him eat.

Sal held Shevi like a baby, without any hindrance. After being held like this many times, Shevi no longer felt strange. He nestled in Sal's arms very naturally, talking to Sal in a low voice.

Sal usually doesn't talk much. If you don't take the initiative to chat with him, the man doesn't know what to say except telling him stories.

Often I would either hold him in silence, kiss and touch him, or just sit there doing nothing for most of the day.

"I'll make you a cake when the wheat is ripe. Later, I can write some dessert recipes for the kitchen. The dishes in the castle cafeteria can be improved by adding some desserts and fruits. What do you think?"

"it is good."

"I want to go downstairs and play with Puka tomorrow, in the courtyard."

"Ah."

"Ge Sang said that Kelutu has given birth to many cubs again. Can we go and see them now?"

Hearing this, Sal had finished his meal. He took the cup of water and fed Xie Wei a few sips, then thought for a while before speaking.

"Not today. I have something else to do this afternoon. I'll go with you tomorrow."

"Oh, what are you going to do in the afternoon? Will you come back for dinner in the evening?" Sal didn't come back for dinner yesterday, so Xie Weiduo asked.

"Come back. I also think I should tell you that the Empire has sent envoys to the Far North Territory. They wanted to see you before, but I refused. After that, they stayed in Good City and never left. Now it seems that they are planning to exchange things with us. No matter what they want to exchange this time, I will not agree. The Far North Territory will no longer exchange magic crystals, rare materials and other things with the Empire in the future. I will also restrict the Empire's scholars and bounty hunters from exploring our ancient ruins."

Sal said as he observed Shevy, and when he saw that Little Rose's mood hadn't changed much, he lovingly cupped his partner's face and kissed her.

Little Rose was very patient and did not bear grudges, which made Sal's heart very sour and painful.

Sometimes there are always conflicts between ideas and reality. The reality is that he cannot help Little Rose punish those who hurt him for the time being, nor can he make any big moves against the empire.

Behind him are the tribesmen of the entire Far North Territory, and he also has to protect his vulnerable partner. Some things cannot be executed immediately after thinking about them.

But in some other areas, Thrall can still impose some restrictions.

Without the cheap magic crystals and rare materials from the Far North, the imperial army, which is in conflict with the neighboring principalities, will be at a disadvantage, and the restricted imperial scholars and bounty hunters will also become dissatisfied with the emperor.

Hearing that the great nobles in the eastern part of the empire were splitting up, Thrall felt that he might be able to provide some help, but of course not in the name of the Lord of the Snowfields.

"I want to meet the envoy, can I?" Xie Wei wanted to know whether the other party wanted to see him just for the sake of formality or for some other purpose.

His magic power has recovered a little, but he doesn't know if that person will notice it.

Xie Wei had no opinion on Thrall's refusal to cooperate with the Empire and the restrictions on the Empire. He felt that Thrall would have his own considerations, and the trade between the Empire and the Far North Territory had always been unfair. They were no longer short of food, and other supplies were not particularly important except salt, and he would find a way to solve the salt problem.

"You want to see them? Then you can come downstairs with me after your nap." Sal originally thought that Xie Wei would not ask to see the imperial envoy. After all, Little Rose did not have any good memories of the empire, but he would not refuse if Little Rose wanted to see him.

It just so happened that he also really wanted the emperor and empress of the empire to know how well he took care of Little Rose in the Far Northern Territory.

Although he didn't know why the other party gave Little Rose to him, Sal now probably knew that the other party probably didn't want Little Rose to live happily after marriage. They thought that Little Rose would suffer a lot and endure more pain if she came to the Far North with him.
