Spring Courtyard Forbidden Pet

After Liuxia left, Ye Zhen was about to drink the contraceptive soup when she heard the maid in the courtyard come to report, "Second Master is here."

The current queen would not allow Li Xuan'an to visit her, yet he took the initiative to come to find Ye Zhen. The maids and old women all thought they were dreaming and their voices were filled with surprise and excitement.

Ye Zhen frowned. What was he doing here so late?

So without thinking, he ordered, "It's getting late, I'm afraid it's not convenient to greet you, I will come in person tomorrow..."

But before he could finish his words, Yun Zhui said respectfully at the door, "Second Master was entrusted by Madam to treat Second Miss's wound."

Because she and Li Chengge had not yet completed the ceremony, the servants in the mansion still called her the Second Miss.

However, Ye Zhen didn't believe this reason even more.

Ye Rong was only breathing her last breath, and she wished she could be accepted by Li Chengge immediately. How could she have the mind to ask Li Xuan to treat her injuries?

"It's not a big deal. I dare not disturb you, Master."

Through the doors and windows, she could vaguely see a tall and slender figure just below the steps. She couldn't help but curse inwardly, wondering how the servants in the courtyard could let them get so close.

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xuan'an's deep voice carried an irresistible pressure, "Open the door."

Given his status and position, although he usually did not interfere in the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion, once he spoke, even Li Chengge might not dare to refute him. In addition, in everyone's mind, it was not an exaggeration to say that he was a living god, so he had a convincing magic.

Ye Zhen's heart was shocked, and the door was pushed open unexpectedly. She didn't even have time to hide the medicine, so she could only subconsciously stand up and block the table.

Li Xuan came in quickly, Yun Zhui closed the door and stood guard outside.

Ye Zhen saw him tilt his head to avoid the green gauze tent. His silver robe fluttered with his footsteps like flowing clouds in the sky. The pressure coming towards her made her feel very uncomfortable.

"Stop!" she shouted, her eyes sharp as needles, "It's inappropriate for Second Master to barge in."

She had said it in a subtle way, but Li Xuan acted as if he hadn't heard her. He pursed his lips and came closer, "I'm a Taoist priest. What's inappropriate about that?"

His seemingly thin body pressed down on her. Ye Zhen's heart was beating like a drum. She stepped back hastily, causing the table to shake. "You..."

Li Xuan pulled her left arm, and his two fingers together like a sharp blade scratched the gauze, revealing the wound with the skin turned outward.

His eyes turned cold, and he didn't know when a medicine bottle appeared in his hand. He bit off the red cork with his sharp teeth and sprinkled the medicine powder on the wound neatly.

Ye Zhen cried out in pain and subconsciously pulled her hand away, but was warned, "Don't move."

"Even if you are a cat with nine lives, you will die if you don't treat your wounds properly."

Ye Zhen was speechless and gritted her teeth as he bandaged her wound.

That face was right in front of her, no matter how she tried to avoid it. He had clear eyebrows and a handsome look. He looked more relaxed than high-ranking officials, and more noble than an ordinary scholar.

If there wasn't that teardrop mole at the corner of her eye, her beauty would be the kind that wouldn't make people dare to imagine anything.

Li Xuan'an's bandaging was very gentle, and the medicine was also magical, the coolness felt good when it penetrated into the flesh. He took out the bottle that Ye Zhen had thrown into the bushes, and poured out two pills the size of a fingernail.

It was too late when Ye Zhen realized what he was going to do. His sandalwood-scented fingers pinched her cheek and the pill went down her throat.

She coughed twice, but due to the other person's status, she didn't curse him directly. She said dissatisfiedly, "I have asked the doctor to prescribe medicine. Second Master's behavior is really excessive."

Seeing the disgust in her eyes, Li Xuan poured the bowl of cold contraceptive soup on the ground without saying a word.

Ye Zhen frowned. This man disregarded etiquette and forced her to stay in the same room with him. He also forced her to take medicine and even poured out her contraceptive soup!

It's just... incomprehensible!

Li Xuan slowly raised his eyes, his eyes calm, "The medicine is too cold. Drinking it will cause illness. It is not suitable for your body. Take the medicine I gave you on time, there will be no problem."

Ye Zhen didn't know whether to be angry or laugh!

It was not easy to avoid people and buy a bowl of contraceptive soup. After he poured it out, Liuxia had to think of other ways, but she couldn't afford to delay.

"Second Master, you are a great doctor, but that doesn't mean I am willing to accept your treatment."

"I really don't know how I have offended you, but I am not your prisoner and I am not at your mercy."

Li Xuan saw that her eyes were bright because of anger, like jade washed by water, her brows were furrowed, and her cheeks were flushed. In these years, she has always been well-behaved in front of others, and she was very tactful in her words and deeds. How could she lose her composure like this?

He stepped back, lowered his eyes and sighed, "Brother treats you badly, I can help you with anything."

His voice was clear but not cold. It was like a stream of water suddenly rushing through Ye Zhen's troubled mind, leaving her stunned for a moment.

She should have laughed at this, but seeing the tenderness in his eyes, Ye Zhen couldn't laugh.

What do you mean?

She made a big fuss today and Ye Rong fainted because of it. If the chaos continues, the Marquis' Mansion will become a laughing stock, which will naturally affect Li Xuan, so he forced himself to bandage his wound. Was he taking the opportunity to speak for Li Chengge?

She really underestimated herself, and was willing to trouble the Imperial Master to come in person.

Ye Zhen's eyes curled up with some mockery, and her gaze fixed on the teardrop mole at the corner of his eye, "The daughter of the Ye family is ridiculed for serving the same husband. Why don't you marry Ye Xue to solve my current dilemma?"

Li Xuan clenched his fists under his sleeves, she was indeed seeking revenge!

For so many years, everything she did revolved around Li Chengge. If she didn't like him, why would she mind so much that Li Chengge favored other women.

His eyes narrowed slightly, his lips pursed tightly, his face expressionless, "Okay."

The mockery on Ye Zhen's face disappeared, and she could no longer smile.

He and Li Chengge are the same person!

"The Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion is really a family that cannot support two kinds of people. I didn't expect that the high and mighty Second Master would be willing to marry a random woman just to calm down the fire in his brother's backyard."

"Oh, yes, anyway, the Second Master has no ambition to be in the secular world, so it doesn't matter who he marries."

Ye Zhen's tone was cold and there was a hint of smile in her eyes, like a knife pressing against his throat.

There was only one lamp on in the room, and Li Xuan was standing with his back to the light. Ye Zhen couldn't see all the emotions in his eyes, but it seemed that he didn't have any emotional fluctuations from head to toe.

He seemed to swallow, his voice a little hoarse, "If I marry Ye Xue, I can solve your troubles and make you feel comfortable."

He spoke as if he were tending to a wound.

Ye Zhen suddenly understood Ye Xue's complaints in her previous life. No wonder Ye Xue was determined to be with Li Chengge this time. Indeed, compared to a playboy like Li Chengge, a man like Li Xuan'an was more suffocating.

Ye Zhen laughed at herself, wondering what there was to say to the people in the Marquis' Mansion.

"I'm just kidding."

"Thank you for the medicine, Master."

Seeing that he was still unwilling to move, Ye Zhen's face was full of disgust, "My affairs with the general have nothing to do with you, Second Master. Please go back."

It doesn't matter?

Li Xuan'an's eyelids twitched, and he caught a glimpse of the obvious red mark on the side of her neck, and his throat tightened.

After coming out of Ye Zhen's courtyard, he took only a few steps before he saw Sancho waiting for him in front with a gossipy look on his face.

As expected, as soon as he approached, Sancho came close to him and said, "Hey, I've never seen you so concerned about this sister-in-law before? She doesn't want your things anymore, but you still come after me to apply medicine."

"The Grand Master of the Great Zhou doesn't even listen to the Queen's account. When did he become so worthless?"

Li Xuan'an stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly, "She has managed the Marquis' Mansion in perfect order."

"Your legitimate sister-in-law has been taking care of it for four or five years, but I haven't seen you say anything good about it."

Sancho's mouth is really unpleasant.

Li Xuan glanced at you, "Yun Zhui, Junior Master did not do the evening class today, so remember three points."

Sancho scratched his head, not caring about gossip, "Do it, do it, you didn't say you wouldn't do it!"

*

Li Chengge sent away the guests in the front yard and waited in the study for Ye Zhen to come and apologize.

Normally, if there was a mistake in the size of a piece of clothing, she would personally bring ginseng soup to apologize. But after what happened today, it was obvious that she must be regretting it.

After all, she loved herself too much and couldn't stand him favoring others.

But it was already past three o'clock in the morning and there was still no movement.

He slammed the table and ordered the guards, "This general is going to rest, no one is allowed to disturb him!"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone outside hurriedly reported, "General!"

Li Chengge's anxiety suddenly subsided, and he knew that Ye Zhen couldn't live without him!

"Miss Ye San fell into the water!"

Li Chengge was stunned for a moment. What?

After further questioning, it turned out that it was Zhou Ma, who was beside Ye Rong, who sent Ye Xue back to her room and then pushed her into the pond! Although Zhou Ma denied it, it was impossible for Ye Xue to jump in by herself!

By doing this, Ye Rong was openly helping Ye Zhen to slap herself in the face. She wanted to promote Ye Zhen and was willing to step on the face of her husband!

In a rage, Li Chengge beat Zhou Ma with twenty boards and had Ye Xue sent to his room.

Ye Xue took a bath, changed her clothes, and drank some ginger soup to drive away the cold. It was almost dawn after all this.

Ye Xue let Li Chengge apply medicine to her. The lovemaking was too intense and she had several broken skins on her body.

"This is the golden medicine used in the military camp. It is very effective." Li Chengge's irritability was gradually calmed down by her.

You can see that she is very shy, but she doesn't dare to refute herself and is as docile as a kitten.

She is not as calm and smart as Ye Rong, but what does it matter if a woman is smart, as long as she is obedient.

"No one has ever treated Xue'er so well." Ye Xue slightly tightened her back, "Xue'er is humble, you'd better not be so nice to this servant, I can't bear it."

Li Chengge had calluses on his fingertips. He rubbed her back for a while, his breathing noticeably rapid.

Ye Xue curled her lips slightly, and intentionally or unintentionally pressed the back of her neck against Li Chengge's chin.

The expected kiss did not fall. Li Chengge's eyes were extremely clear. He leaned close to her ear and asked, "This general hates being deceived the most. Did you really bump into this general by the pool by accident?"

Ye Xue's heart skipped a beat, and her brain raced to make sure she hadn't revealed anything. But Li Chengge was both affectionate and ruthless, and since he asked this...

She lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong and said softly, "No, no."

"Oh?" Li Chengge looked at her with interest, with a slight smile on the corner of his lips but without much warmth.

"Xue'er discovered that her second sister seemed to have drunk an aphrodisiac... She was afraid that she would do something shameful and ruin the reputation of the Ye family, so she sent her to the attic to rest."

"I went to the pool out of curiosity, and you caught me..."

She started crying again, "It was my second sister who should have served the general, but I... Please forget about it, it will be better for everyone."

The fear in Ye Xue's eyes made Li Chengge very uncomfortable, "Since this general wants you, he can protect you himself."

The haze in his eyes became even darker. "Even after using the aphrodisiac, what else can they not dare to do!"

"Somebody come!"

The guard outside the door answered, "General, people from Cheng'en Court came twice and said that the lady wanted to see you."

"This general wants to see her, too!"

Ye Xue pursed her lips. The more Li Chengge cared about Ye Rong, the more he couldn't tolerate Ye Rong scheming against him for profit.

This time, she must break Ye Rong's affection in Li Chengge's heart! Only then can he be well and truly love her in the future.

On the way to Cheng'en Courtyard, the guard reported Xiao Liuzi's words to Li Chengge, "Xiao Liuzi said that Madam was afraid that she could not wait for long, and was also worried that the general would miss her and would not accept the second young lady, so she had to come up with this idea."

Li Chengge snorted coldly, his face as gloomy as water.

The friendship of childhood and the support of husband and wife for many years seemed a little ridiculous at a moment.

Come to think of it, everything he received at the border over the years was made by Ye Zhen herself. It seems that Ye Rong doesn't treat him as attentively as a concubine's daughter!
