The hero fell for the cannon fodder maid.

He Jingming didn't know how long he stared at Xiao Wanyue's couch before returning to bed to continue resting.

When He Jingming opened his eyes and woke up from the bed, he lifted the bed curtain and looked at the woman on the small couch. The beauty had her eyes closed, her clothes were a little messy, the quilt had fallen to the ground, and a large part of her sleeves had slipped off. Her fair white arms were casually placed on the pillow, looking charming and affectionate.

The more I look at her, the more I feel itchy. I feel indescribable excitement when I see her from afar. I really want to look at her every moment.

He got out of bed and walked to the couch, gently pulled up the quilt that was hanging on the ground for her, and stroked the black hair beside her ear. At this moment, the person on the couch trembled her eyelashes slightly. He Jingming's heart was beating wildly. He was a little afraid that the person on the couch would wake up and see him like this, so he quickly withdrew his hand.

After waiting for a while, there was no response from the person on the couch. He felt a little relieved and a little disappointed. He wondered how Xiao Wanyue would react if she saw him touching her face with his hand.

He tidied himself up, opened the door and left the mansion. He still had to go to court. The current situation was chaotic, so he had to be careful and cautious and must not be caught by anyone.

He has been in charge of the Ministry of Justice for a long time, and the emperor also has some doubts about the Zheng family army in the northwest. The Zheng family army is his maternal grandfather's family, and Zheng Yao is his mother, the late emperor's Queen Zheng.

These people will eventually have to pay back what they owe him.

After attending the morning court, he went to Mingyue Tower. When he entered the room, several men in black knelt in front of him.

"Greetings, my master." The man in black knelt and saluted, waiting for the person in charge to speak.

He Jingming looked at them coldly and seriously and said, "Get up."

"How is the training of Xishan's death squad going?"

One of the men in black bowed and said, "Master, one thousand of Xishan's death warriors have passed the selection, and another thousand are still in training."

He Jingming: "Intensify training. We need to train 3,000 death warriors this year."

The man in black: "Yes, Master."

He Jingming: "How are the profits of the major shops?"

Another man in black saluted and replied, "All the major shops are making profits, totaling 20 million taels."

He Jingming: "Okay, keep it up."

The two men in black left the room silently.

"How is the Dark Building Intelligence Network? Is there any important news?" he continued to ask.

The last man in black bowed his head and said, "The emperor intends to let General Lin take over the position of deputy general of the Zheng family army."

"Any more?"

"The Emperor wants to win over the Prime Minister's Mansion, so he will make the Prime Minister's daughter a noble concubine during the Mid-Autumn Festival."

He Jingming waved his hand to signal the man in black to leave.

He Jingming sat there in deep thought for a long time. It seemed that his brother wanted to consolidate his position. He didn't know how long he could stay in this position.

"Someone is coming."

A man in black came into the room.

He Jingming didn't even bother to look at it before ordering, "Go and investigate Lin Hui thoroughly to see if there's anything you can do about it. Then send a letter to General Zheng."

The man in black said: "An Yi, obey your command." Then he disappeared.

He called the shopkeeper to pack up a meal and returned to the Marquis's Mansion.

When Xiao Wanyue woke up, it was already noon. She was woken up by someone knocking on the door. When she found herself sleeping in He Jingming's room, she felt terrible.

How could she sleep so soundly in someone else's bedroom? Was she completely giving up? Even though it was a book, she didn't encounter any danger. The male protagonist wasn't very friendly to her, but there was nothing else.

Such a life is sometimes quite good. She is not tired from working every day, the food is good, and she sleeps well. However, she is really afraid that the plot will be too uncontrollable. In a few days, the hero will meet the heroine at a banquet in the Marquis' Mansion, and then someone will frame the heroine. The hero happens to meet her and comes out to testify for her. The hero is attracted by the heroine's purity, kindness and wit, and thus begins his unrequited love journey. The heroine does not like him, so he begins to marry her by force.

Tsk tsk, I don’t know what this male protagonist is thinking. He has status and identity, and he can have any woman he wants, but he just falls in love with one person.

If she had money and power, she would definitely raise a few adorable little puppies, which would be a pleasure to look at every day. That would be a life of paradise. I really envy this powerful male protagonist.

After lying on the couch for a while and completely losing her sleepiness, she slowly got up, put on her shoes, let her messy hair fall over her shoulders, walked through the landscape screen, and just as she opened the door, she heard a man's excited voice.

"He Shizi, I knew you were in the room, but your guards said you were not there."

It was too late for Xiao Wanyue to close the door. She was confused as to why a man would come to her room. The door opened and the man outside rushed in. Before Xiao Wanyue could even move aside, she was knocked to the ground by the man. The two of them were one on top and one on the bottom, and their postures were very ambiguous.

Xiao Wanyue opened her beautiful eyes wide, a little scared and wet. The man's face suddenly enlarged in front of her, and he almost kissed her cheek. Fortunately, she turned her head. She was about to say something when she heard a loud shout: "What are you doing?"

Needless to say, Xiao Wanyue knew who this person was.

She hadn't had the chance to properly appreciate the handsome man in front of her, but after just a quick glance, she really fell in love with him. He was so handsome, a sunny and handsome big boy.

He is at least 1.8 meters tall, has a handsome face, is elegant and clean-looking. Isn't this the man of her dreams?

He Jingming rode back from Mingyue Tower in a hurry, fearing that the delicious food would get cold and lose its flavor.

Unexpectedly, when he came back, he saw this scene that made him extremely angry. The two bodies were intertwined, the woman's clothes were disheveled, her hair was messy, and they looked like a pair of lovers.

At this time, the man who was pressing on Xiao Wanyue was amazed by the woman in front of him. He had never seen such a beautiful and extraordinary woman. Her eyes were clear and a little scared. She looked soft and lovely, with a delicate face, eyebrows like distant mountains, and small and rosy lips that he wanted to bite.

His soul was sucked away by this woman, and he lay on her body motionless. The woman's body under him was so soft, and her charming fragrance made him reluctant to let go.

He came back to his senses when he heard his friend's voice. Before he could get up, He Jingming grabbed the back of his collar and threw him aside. He was a little surprised. He didn't expect that his friend would treat him like this because of a woman. Is this still the cold and abstinent He Shizi he knew?

He Jingming pulled Xiao Wanyue, who was lying on the ground, into his arms and covered her body with his wide sleeves.

Xiao Wanyue felt that her vision suddenly turned black and she could not see anything. She could only hear the man's heartbeat and the ambergris on his clothes.

"Let me go, I want to get down." Xiao Wanyue was really not used to being so close to a man, and this man was about to break her waist, why was he using so much force?

He Jingming ignored the struggle of the person in his arms and looked at Xie Yu who was coming up and said, "Xie Yu, what are you doing here?" He Jingming looked at the man on the ground with some anger, his eyes heavy. If they didn't have a good relationship, he would have wanted to beat him up.

Xie Yu slowly got up and said with a smile: "I'm here to have a drink with you. I came to the Marquis' Mansion and heard the servants say you weren't there. I didn't believe it so I came to your room. You were here right after I arrived. How come the girl in your arms is your sweetheart?"

As soon as He Jingming heard this, he knew that someone had told him that Xie Yu was looking for him when he was outside the mansion. He didn't expect that Xie Yu would come directly to his room to find him and encounter such a thing.

When he heard Xie Yu say that Xiao Wanyue was his sweetheart, his heart was pounding.

Xie Yu couldn't help but chuckle when he saw He Jingming's dull eyes: "Hey, I was wondering if you were already with this young lady. When I opened the door, I saw this girl in the inner room, disheveled. To be honest, are you..."

"This is my private matter." He Jingming said a little uncomfortably, his ears turning red.

Xiao Wanyue: Don’t these two people care about themselves when they talk? She is also very embarrassed. This person is still talking about her relationship with He Jingming. How could she be He Jingming’s sweetheart? Is he thinking too much?

Hey, wait, this guy’s called Xie Yu?

Isn’t this the second male lead?

The hero's loyal subordinate will become a high-ranking official in the future, but he falls in love with the beautiful heroine, who likes her childhood sweetheart. After various abusive relationships, the heroine falls in love with the hero.

What was Xie Yu's ending?
