"General!"

Ye Qinghuan's mouth acted before he could think it through.

Shen Lin turned around: "Anything else?"

"My Great Yin Dynasty attaches the most importance to Mid-Autumn Festival reunion. I guess the generals at the border are also homesick. Will the Western barbarians take the opportunity to invade?" Ye Qinghuan asked.

Shen Lin said disdainfully: "The Western Barbarians are only so clever. I have already made all the necessary preparations."

Ye Qinghuan was suddenly frightened.

So, even though Shen Lin was well prepared, the Shen family army still won a narrow victory at the cost of a thousand casualties?

Thinking about the excessive attention that the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion paid to Shen Lin, Ye Qinghuan became even more uneasy.

Is the enemy too strong? A spy infiltrating? Or is there a traitor?

Ye Qinghuan had never been in the army, so he had no way of telling the difference. This was the first time he had been involved in a war in his past and present lives, so he was inevitably flustered.

"Just say whatever you want to say." Shen Lin narrowed his eyes and looked at his skinny little wife. He always felt that it was no coincidence that she mentioned the border tonight!

"General, let's go back to the border tomorrow! We must defend against the enemy well!" Ye Qinghuan said with gritted teeth.

He is so powerful, maybe with him in charge we won't repeat the mistakes of the previous life.

The Shen family army did not suffer a serious setback, which was good for their relationship.

Shen Lin's brows slowly furrowed.

Su Jinxiu was already preparing for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. In order for Ye Qinghuan to give birth to a legitimate son, she had to keep him in the general's mansion overnight on Mid-Autumn Festival night.

But she actually chased him back to the border at such a critical moment?

"The Shen family army is the strongest army in the Dayin Dynasty. I'm afraid that some people will worry that the general will use his troops to gain power and resort to trickery!" Ye Qinghuan increased the intensity of his hints.

Of course Shen Lin understood.

But, how could she understand this?

"General, don't doubt me. We are husband and wife, sharing honor and disgrace. I just wish the general well and hope that you can find an antidote to save my life as soon as possible." Ye Qinghuan looked at Shen Lin sincerely.

The flickering candlelight fell into her eyes like stars, gentle and bright.

Although he is so thin, he is as steady as a mountain.

Just looking at her like this makes people feel at ease.

Shen Lin looked at her for a moment and nodded slowly: "I will go back tomorrow."

"It's best to reply quietly." Ye Qinghuan reminded.

If there really is a traitor, we can also find him out to prevent future troubles.

"it is good."

Shen Lin agreed and walked into the inner room.

It takes three days to travel from Shengjing to the border by horseback riding day and night, so I need to have a good rest tonight.

But, she stopped him.

"General, your room is over there." Ye Qinghuan pointed to the left.

Only then did Shen Lin realize that the small study on the left side of the living room had actually become a bedroom.

"General, go sleep in that room."

Ye Qinghuan's eyes flickered, and under her forced gentleness, she was nervous. She was afraid that he would be angry, and even more afraid that he would force her to consummate the marriage.

Shen Lin was not angry, he was just a little disheveled in the wind.

This woman doesn't want to sleep in the same bed with him at all!

It was one thing that he didn't want to consummate the marriage, but it was another thing that she rejected him openly or secretly!

Like being disliked.

If he hadn't known that she was poisoned by a heart-eating poison and would die if she got pregnant, he would have suspected that she had someone else in love.

"Well, General, you know I've been poisoned and I won't live long..."

"okay."

Shen Lin turned around and went to sleep in the small study.

Ye Qinghuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If we get off to a good start tonight, it will be easy for Shen Lin to sleep in the study room from now on.

The study was elegantly decorated, with no other drawbacks except that it was a little small. In particular, the bed and bedding were specially arranged like those in the bedroom.

Shen Lin lay down, feeling sweet and soft, just like lying in her room.

The women in Beijing know how to enjoy themselves. No wonder there were tyrants in ancient times who lingered on the beds of beauties and refused to attend morning court.

Unlike them, the conditions at the border are very simple, and men and women alike are content as long as they have enough to eat.

It makes him like home a little bit...

Shen Lin put his hands behind his head, thinking about Ye Qinghuan's hints.

I always feel like she knows too much...

But according to his investigation, she did live in a country village for the first fifteen years, and her life was hard. Not only was her food and clothing deducted, but she also had to do all kinds of rough labor.

She doesn't look like a lady, but more like a servant girl.

The Ye family, however, did nothing and allowed their servants to bully them.

She almost died that year when she was shot with an arrow. But Ye Huai didn't even know that she had been shot with a poisonous arrow!

She is like a wild grass, growing tenaciously in adversity and never complaining.

After marrying him, she neither fought nor favored him, as if she was used to living alone.

Thinking of this, Shen Lin felt a little uncomfortable.

He is her husband.

She is no longer alone.

Shen Lin was just thinking about this, and before he fell asleep, he heard Feng He come to report: "General, Deputy General Yu said that Miss Zhou has a fever. Please go to the villa."

Then there was the sound of something being put down heavily in the outer room. Was Ye Qinghuan angry?

Shen Lin frowned and lay still: "If you have a fever, call a doctor."

"But Miss Zhou said she wanted the general to go..."

"Will her fever go down if I go there?" Shen Lin yelled angrily.

----

The moon is above the willows, Huaxi Villa.

Zhou Niannian sat in the yard wearing thin clothes, pretending to be pitiful. Her face, which was swollen from being slapped in the afternoon, had not recovered yet and was swollen on one side and uneven on the other.

Seeing that Yu Wu only brought back a doctor, she widened her eyes in disbelief: "Where's the general?"

"The general has gone to bed. Let me get a doctor for you." Yu Wuren's slightly rough face was covered with a flattering smile, "Miss Zhou..."

"Get out! I won't take medicine until the general comes." Zhou Niannian's eyes were red, and she looked very aggrieved.

Yu Wu patiently coaxed her: "Miss Zhou, your body belongs to you, you have to take care of yourself."

"The general doesn't care about me anymore, what's the point of me living?" Zhou Niannian's tears fell down, "Ye Qinghuan bullied me like that, I endured it for the general, but now he doesn't care about me anymore..."

"Ms. Zhou, please don't be like this..."

"Yu Wu, what's wrong with me? His life was saved by my brother, why don't you want me?" Zhou Niannian asked crying.

Yu Wu's eyes were complicated: "Ms. Zhou, you are good in every way, but you are not suitable for the general..."

"Why is it inappropriate? Are you qualified to belittle me?"

Before Yu Wu could finish his words, he was interrupted fiercely by Zhou Niannian.

He was not good at speaking to begin with, and now he was even more speechless and could only rub his hands in a daze.

But he didn't leave immediately, he stayed with her.

Miss Zhou is also a poor person.

Five years ago, Zhou Niannian followed her brother Zhou Zhengan to join the Shen family army. At that time, she was only twelve years old and followed them in disguise as a boy.

Just like his sister who had grown up under his care, he certainly couldn't bear to see her suffer any injustice.

But she was too obsessed.

She knew that the general had no romantic feelings for her. What confidante, what mistress? The general was just too lazy to explain and just wanted to make things difficult for the old and young in the family.

If only Zhou Zhengan were still alive, maybe he could persuade her.

Thinking of his best friend, Yu Wu thought of a way and said, "Miss Zhou, don't you want to avenge Brother Zhengan?"

Zhou Niannian's whole body trembled, and her lips trembled: "Yes! Of course I do!"

"Then live well!"

Zhou Niannian finally agreed to see the doctor. Yu Wu breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on his rough face.
