Quick Wear: Pampering Your Lover

“Gee! Gee!…”

A chaotic sound of horse hooves galloped past the forest path, the fallen leaves were blown everywhere, and the snow on the ground was also trampled into tracks by the horses.

It was not until they arrived at the post station that the group of more than thirty people stopped their horses.

The leading man was dressed in black armor with two heavy swords hanging on his back. He had a tall and straight figure, a red tassel wrapped around his high ponytail, a dark headband on his forehead, and a pair of eyes as bright as night stars. He was obviously a young man with high spirits.

He dismounted and carefully carried the man on the horse back into his arms.

"Miss Ah Zhen, I'll take you to the post station to rest."

His tone was extremely gentle, for fear of frightening the person in his arms. If the man's friends in the capital saw this scene, they would definitely suspect that he was possessed by a ghost.

But his subordinates didn't think so. After all, when they first saw this woman, they thought she was a fairy who had come down to earth. The group of people stood there in a daze, not daring to move.

Unfortunately......

Shao Yi held the woman in his arms and walked steadily all the way.

At least Mingzhen didn't feel any bumps at all. She was wearing the black cloak that Shao Yi had put on her. The wide cloak covered her whole body tightly, and the brim of the hat almost covered her entire face, leaving only her bright red lips and snow-white chin vaguely visible.

Mingzhen hugged Shao Yi's neck tightly and rested her chin on the man's strong shoulder affectionately. Her soft breath hit his ears, making his body more tense.

She tilted her head and quietly lifted the brim of her hat, revealing her beautiful almond-shaped eyes. She looked around vigilantly like a kitten.

As she was about to enter the post station, her eyes, which were looking around, suddenly met a pair of dark and cold eyes.

Mingzhen was stunned for a second, but when he looked carefully, there was nothing, as if the scene just now was just an illusion.

She buried her face timidly in Shao Yi's neck, her long curled eyelashes trembling like a butterfly flapping its wings about to fly.

Kong Ji, who was hiding in the dark, didn't know why he deliberately exposed himself in front of the girl. As the young master's first secret guard, he had to put the mission first and such actions that could easily attract attention were absolutely not allowed. But when he saw the girl who was scared by him, he felt a sense of pleasure from the inside out.

Sweet and bitter.

Shao Yi was completely unaware of all this, because at the moment he was disturbed by Mingzhen's actions. He only felt that the skin that was touched was extremely hot, and the cold winter weather could not cool down the heat in his heart.

His throat was dry and he couldn't help swallowing. Only after he finally reached the wing room and put Mingzhen on the bed did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.

......

As the leader of the secret guards, Kong Ji was trained to be an all-rounder. He drew the girl and rode back to the young master at full speed.

"The plan was very successful. General Shao has wiped out the bandits and brought back the evidence." Kong Ji knelt on one knee behind someone and spoke respectfully in a hoarse voice.

The man was wearing a dark robe embroidered with gold, with a noble fox fur wrapped around his shoulders. He was gently stroking a branch of red plum blossoms that peeked in from the window. Just his back was enough to tell how elegant he was.

"No one was left alive?" His voice sounded slightly surprised, and he finally turned around. His eyes were as light as glass, his nose was high, his skin was fair, and his thin lips were as if stained with rouge. He had a truly stunning appearance that was hard to describe.

"Originally, they left two prisoners alive for interrogation back in Beijing, but they were both killed along the way. The reason... seems to be related to this girl."

Kong Ji presented the portrait. "This girl was rescued from a bandit's lair by General Shao. Her name is Ah Zhen. She is stunningly beautiful. My crude painting skills cannot capture even a fraction of her beauty."

His painting skills were not that of a famous master, but they were better than those in the palace. Now that he was so modest, one could imagine how special this girl of unknown origin was.

"Oh?" The man seemed to be intrigued. He took the portrait and opened it casually. The lifelike figure in the painting made him stunned for a few seconds. "...It is really as bright as the autumn moon, like the goddess of Wushan and Luo River..."

Just as his fingertips were about to touch the red mole at the corner of the girl's eye in the portrait, he suddenly realized what was happening and retracted his fingertips as if he had been burned.

But why does it look vaguely familiar...

"Go check her identity."

......

Beijing.

Green tiles and red walls, the streets are bustling with traffic, and there are many busy vendors on both sides of the street. Many shops are still steaming with food, making the street look very lively.

Suddenly, a group of people evacuated the middle of the street, leaving a narrow path about four meters wide.

Then, a carriage with the Shao Mansion logo on it came into view. The carriage was surrounded by Feiyu Guards on horseback, who moved forward slowly in a protective posture.

The leader was none other than General Shao Yi, who was ordered to suppress the bandits two months ago.

"It's General Shao!"

"General Shao is back!"

"General, upon your triumphant return, please remember to come to Juxianlou. I, your humble servant, would like to offer you a welcome dinner!"

Shao Yi had never been bound by moral principles since childhood, and had done many good deeds in the capital to punish evil and promote good, thus deeply loved by the people. At this moment, the people were standing on both sides of the street cheering, and some beautiful women even covered their faces shyly when they saw the man on horseback.

Shao Yi smiled broadly and bowed repeatedly to the crowd without any airs.

But if you look closely, you will find that he has slightly quickened his pace and his eyes are frequently glancing at the carriage with worry in them.

Wangyue Tower is located in the center of the capital. It is the tallest building in the city with six floors. Standing at the highest point, you can overlook half of the city. It is usually a gathering place for dignitaries and nobles.

At this moment, someone was standing on the top floor, waving a folding fan on the observation deck, taking in the entire scene.

"Who is that person in the carriage that deserves Yu Zhi's careful treatment?"

The other man glanced at him, then quickly looked away, continuing to tease the little parrot standing on the window sill. "I guess if it's not the prince, then it must be the genius doctor Chu."

He was used to his friend playing with his folding fan all day, even in winter. He pinched the parrot's wings and said nonchalantly, "It can't be my sweetheart, can it?"

Everyone knew that Shao Yuzhi had no mercy on women and would ruthlessly reject any girl who approached him. Therefore, the girls in the capital always kept their distance from him.

The man holding the folding fan closed it, a playful smile on his handsome face: "That's hard to say, didn't they just have a little cousin?"

......

The carriage quickly arrived at the Shao Mansion. Shao Yi stood in front of the carriage and knocked on the window: "Miss Ah Zhen, we're here."

Normally, Ah Zhen would knock on the car window to acknowledge his presence, but this time, for some reason, there was no response for a long time. Shao Yi's eyelids twitched, and without giving it much thought, he swung open the car curtain.

The car was empty, with only a notebook that had obvious signs of being read thrown aside.
