After being rejected, he emptied the mansion and went into exile

Shen Jinyao only realized that there were actually two little tails in the team when she saw the letter Xiang Hongxuan gave her.

Shen Zhixue, standing to the side, also wore an expression that was hard to describe.

Shen Zhixue: "When we rest up ahead, I'll go and find the two people."

They have been on their journey for seven days now, and have already covered half of their distance. Even if they catch two people, they cannot rashly let them return alone.

Shen Jinyao nodded.

After Shen Zhixue left, Xiang Hongxuan looked down at Shen Jinyao, who had a worried expression.

Xiang Hongxuan squeezed Shen Jinyao's hand.

Shen Jinyao looked up, a question on her face.

"Don't worry, we're here for you. We won't let anything happen to them."

Xiang Hongxuan had always known that although Shen Jinyao always appeared indifferent, she cared deeply for her brothers and sisters in the Shen family.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to support the Shen family all the way to their place of exile.

Upon hearing this, Shen Jinyao sighed softly and then nodded gently.

This is a time for the team to take a short break.

This is not a time to stop and rest.

Xiang Hongxuan didn't let go of Shen Jinyao's hand, but instead asked her, "Are you tired?"

After all, they were riding horses all the time, and could only rest at noon and in the evening.

When the Shen family was exiled, Shen Jinyao was able to endure hardship, but riding in a carriage and riding a horse are ultimately different.

Shen Jinyao never complained about being tired, which made Xiang Hongxuan pay close attention to her condition at all times.

Although he knew he was doing something unnecessary.

Perhaps this is what it feels like to keep someone in your heart.

I always keep it in mind.

Even though this person was right in front of him, everything about her kept him from getting involved.

Even though this woman was very powerful, she was still worried.

However, Xiang Hongxuan showed no sign of it on his face, only asking a few questions at appropriate times.

He dared not reveal too much, for fear of offending Shen Jinyao.

Shen Jinyao replied with a faint smile, "Has the general forgotten? I was once an exiled person."

really.

Xiang Hongxuan knew this person would say that.

"Give."

Xiang Hongxuan handed over a porcelain bottle.

The porcelain bottle lying in his palm looked like it contained some kind of medicine.

Shen Jinyao was puzzled.

Xiang Hongxuan's expression remained normal. "This is what I asked Doctor Gao to prescribe, because I was worried that your legs might be uncomfortable from riding horses for so long..."

As Xiang Hongxuan spoke, his voice trailed off.

Even her ears turned a subtle red.

Recently, they've been traveling, and when Xiang Hongxuan rests at night, he takes Shen Jinyao to secluded places.

There was nothing else to it; he was simply covering for Shen Jinyao.

This way, Shen Jinyao can go to her space to rest.

Shen Jinyao was initially reluctant, but Xiang Hongxuan said, "When you're alone, you'll definitely go into your space to rest, so just pretend I'm not here."

Shen Jinyao no longer felt guilty.

After all, it's hard to guarantee that nothing unexpected will happen if two people disappear for one night at the same time.

However, it would be much safer for Shen Jinyao to enter the space alone while Xiang Hongxuan watched from outside.

We haven't reached the border yet, so the enemy won't launch a surprise attack in the middle of the night.

However, in the end, Xiang Hongxuan couldn't resist Shen Jinyao's strong insistence, and under her insistence, Xiang Hongxuan also rested in the space for an hour every day.

During rest periods, besides washing up and eating something,

The two of them would lie in bed for a while.

He was a normal, virile man, and with the woman he loved lying beside him, it was only natural that he would hug and kiss her.

When the two were getting emotional, Shen Jinyao's legs... wrapped around him.

If his body hadn't reacted so strongly, the two of them would have continued arguing for a while longer.

Now that he's talking about Shen Jinyao's legs, he can't help but recall what happened last night, and he feels a little flustered.

Shen Jinyao had no idea where the nonchalant man in front of her was thinking about matters of love and sex, but as expected, he was not surprised.

She only considered Xiang Hongxuan as someone from ancient times, and felt somewhat embarrassed to talk about women's legs.

However, Xiang Hongxuan was indeed meticulous.

He always quietly did many trivial things for her.

She was very satisfied with her 'boyfriend'.

He is capable, good-looking, and ambitious, with a strong sense of national responsibility. He doesn't talk much, but he never misses a single task.

Shen Jinyao took the medicine bottle and couldn't help but think of Xiang Hongxuan going to Doctor Gao to make medicine.

She couldn't help but laugh.

Xiang Hongxuan's ears turned red, as if his secret had been exposed.

Shen Jinyao glanced at the man's ear with amusement.

What's on this person's mind?

During the time they spent together, she discovered that Xiang Hongxuan was nothing more than a paper tiger, all bluster and no substance.

Actually, she's very innocent.

Shen Jinyao is unaware that this 'misconception' will cause her a lot of trouble later on...

Not far away, Li Fei was stroking his chin in deep thought, while Zhao Ling paced back and forth, eager to get closer and take a look.

Not right.

Something's not right with the general and his wife.

The two exchanged a glance, and Li Fei asked, "General, you actually blush?"

Zhao Ling rolled her eyes at him, "What do you know, you big brute!"

Li Fei punched Zhao Ling, "You think you know anything? I know you too well, you're just spouting nonsense!"

It's not even a chick yet!

Li Fei's words naturally did not affect his mood.

"That's still better than having only grass in your brain!"

Li Fei made a move to attack, but Zhao Ling had already dodged far away.

Shen Zhixue, standing to the side, seemed not to have heard the conversation between the two, but he already had a plan in mind.

It now seems that the eldest sister will not divorce the general.

That's fine too.

My sister has sacrificed so much for the Shen family; at the very least, General Xiang can take good care of her.

His gaze was drawn to a furtive figure.

He squinted and stared over, and was surprised to see a person dressed as a soldier. Judging from the person's height, he should be quite young.

Nothing special, maybe he's just a little timid since he's new to military service?

Another figure caught his attention.

This is……

General Lü?

The old general was about the same age as his father, but General Lü was often away fighting, so he was much more energetic.

Even so, the marks of time cannot be stopped.

He's getting on in years, after all.

Unfortunately, General Lü only had one daughter and no sons.

It is said that General Lü's wife passed away early in life, and since General Lü was often away from home, his daughter was raised by his wife's younger sister.

How could a newly enlisted soldier and an old general emerge from the woods one after the other?

The woods weren't dense, but they were the most secluded spot in the vicinity.

Is he an enemy spy?

impossible!

What is General Lü after?

He had no children and nothing to fight for. Perhaps this was his last campaign, after which he would return home in glory and enjoy his retirement.

Can't we spend half our lives striving just to betray our country?

Unless General Lü was an enemy spy a long time ago.

He immediately dismissed the idea.

If that's the case, then the enemy's lines in Kyushu are far too long.

However, he still felt it was a pity.

How could a battle-hardened old general have contact with an unknown soldier?

Could it be that the two of them knew each other?

That's even more impossible.

The Lü family has been royalty for generations, and General Lü's grandfather's generation became a member of the Xiang family army.

Later, he was sent by the emperor to guard the frontier.

When General Lü came out, his expression was normal, but he looked somewhat angry.

But that soldier just now was looking around strangely.

He looked away, and General Lü walked over.

However, his performance was so good that no one noticed anything amiss.

However, he began to pay attention to this matter.
