The prince stepped on me to get to the top, I angrily flirted with the enemy's hostage

Shen Yao said, "Okay, does it look good?"

Su Rou choked for a moment, then smiled cheerfully and said, "The Imperial Guards' wanted poster should have..."

Shen Yao: “?”

The old woman was originally a wanted criminal, and she met her in prison. Would it lower the value of their general's mansion if this were made public?

Shen Yao said, "I'll send someone to look for them. If there are any suspicious people, I'll send someone to inform you."

Su Rou nodded, "That's fine."

She finished a piece of cake and quietly reached for the plate.

She observed Shen Yao's reaction and wondered if it would be okay for her to eat another piece.

Shen Yao pushed the plate towards her with the back of his hand.

"You will stay here for the next few days. If you need anything to eat, tell me and I will ask someone to prepare it."

Shen Yao allowed her to eat, and she took another piece and put it into her mouth, "You are a very nice person."

Shen Yao said, "I've always been fine."

She chewed the pastry in her mouth, and her dazed expression made Shen Yao speechless.

"I know you don't realize what I mean at all."

Su Rou swallowed the pastry and felt a little choked. She stood up and poured herself a cup of tea.

Shen Yao looked at her heartless appearance, a touch of tenderness in his eyes...

Su Rou said, "What?"

Shen Yao shook his head helplessly, lowered his head, and continued to read the documents on the table.

Su Rou was also very bored. Seeing that Shen Yao was busy, she fell asleep on the couch next to her.

She opened her eyes and found that it was already daylight outside.

The fire in the house was extinguished, leaving only the cold light coming in from the window.

She was covered with a cloak, which was Shen Yao's clothes.

Then...what about Shen Yao?

Why did she fall asleep yesterday?

Su Rou yawned and didn't feel energetic at all. It was probably because she had sent Su Wan and the others away, and then came back, and had been running on the road the whole time.

Su Rou didn't dare to go out, so she stayed in the room waiting for Shen Yao to come back.

He brought her a roast chicken and a bowl of noodles. Su Rou pulled out a chicken leg, took a bite of the meat, and her mouth was filled with oil and the meat was so delicious.

Shen Yao said, "After you're full, I'll ask someone to bring some water. Wash your face and comb your hair."

Su Rou said, "Okay."

She was always on the go and didn't dare wear anything valuable on her body for fear of being noticed. So she just tied her hair up casually with a red hairband.

After a night's sleep, her hair was messy.

Shen Yao sat down opposite her.

Su Rou was startled and raised her head. "Do you want to eat?"

Shen Yao shook his head. "I've already had breakfast, so I bought these things myself in the city to avoid arousing suspicion."

Su Rou chewed the meat and said, "Oh..."

Su Rou ate up all the roast chicken and noodles. She patted her belly and said to Shen Yao contentedly, "When I go to the South, I'll treat you to delicious food, too."

"Are you afraid of owing me a favor?"

Su Rou said, "I also..."

She didn't finish her words and shut up obediently.

"Sir, the emperor has ordered you to enter the palace."

Shen Yao said, "Prepare the carriage."

"Yes."

Someone outside the door suddenly came over, luckily she reacted in time and had sharp ears!

After Su Rou made sure that the people outside had left, she lowered her voice and said to Shen Yao, "The emperor asked you to enter the palace right now. I'm afraid there might be something else. You should be careful."

Shen Yao took out a comb with carved flowers from his pocket, walked up to her, and gently pulled the hairband on her head with his hand in his sleeve.

"Turn around. Your hair is so ugly no matter how I look at it."

Su Rou was stunned. Before she could react, he pressed her shoulders and turned her around.

"Can you comb your hair?"

hiss……

I really can't speak!

She regretted it as soon as she said it.

Shen Yao's biological mother wasn't a lady, so she wasn't favored in the mansion. How could there be a maid to serve him...

Shen Yao said, "A little bit."

He gently combed her hair with a comb, "Don't leave this room. Wait until I come back."

Su Rou responded.

After Shen Yao left, she was really bored alone, so why not go back and take a nap?

Su Rou threw herself on the bed, closed her eyes, and her thoughts were in a mess. There were too many things in her mind, and she couldn't fall asleep at all...

Su Rou sat up and lay on the table to eat some more fruit.

The cold wind blows at the northern border.

A large number of refugees crowded into the city.

"General, these refugees are about to leave. We can't hold on any longer. Can you give the order to your men to push them back?"

Su Chi stood in the cold wind in his armor, looking majestic, his cloak was blown up and down by the cold wind.

He glanced sideways and turned to look at the people behind him, "Open the city gate and let them out."

"But... the emperor ordered..."

Su Chi's expression was cold. "You don't obey my military orders?"

His men looked up to meet his murderous eyes, then quickly lowered their heads. "I surrender! I'll pass the order down right away."

After the subordinate left, Su Wan, who had been hiding in the house, sneaked out.

He was the mighty and invincible General Su, but now he had to hide aside like a little mouse for fear of being discovered.

Su Wan wanted to speak but stopped himself.

Su Chi turned around and walked down the stairs. "I'll send someone to escort you to the Southern Kingdom."

Su Wan looked at Su Chi's back and said, "Third brother, I will stay and help you guard the city gate."

Su Chi paused and glanced behind him, "Who said I'm going to defend you? You should listen to Su Rou and leave the Northern Kingdom for the Southern Kingdom. When the Southern Kingdom sends its troops and the battle is over, I will return to the capital to protect her and bring her over."

Su Wan: “?”

Although he had sensed it a long time ago, he only realized it now...

Lao San and A Rou, isn't this clearly treason?!

He watched these two children grow up, and now they feel both familiar and unfamiliar to him.

How come he couldn't even see what they were thinking?
