Quick Wear: I and the Villain Beat the Scum Together
Chapter 26 Concubine v War King 8
Si Ke woke up in Rong Xuan's villa outside Beijing. Hearing Ling Shuang talk about this, he couldn't help but smile.
What do you mean by loving her so deeply? It's because he didn't get any benefit from her and even lost a lot of medicinal herbs, so he was so angry!
Now that her issues have been resolved, all that remains is to help Rong Xuan with all her strength.
Originally, Si Ke had thought about staying in the capital and using other methods to capture Rong Heng. This would definitely be better than laying siege to the city and causing great suffering to the people. However, there was no other way.
Rong Xuan was restricted here in every way. Not long ago, Rong Heng even stripped him of the title of War King, and directly made him the Wise King, and transferred him to the Hanlin Academy.
The virtuous king is just the idle king. The emperor wants to completely abolish Rong Xuan.
Fortunately, unlike the original plot, Rong Xuan still holds the military power firmly in his hands. It will be much more difficult for Rong Heng to place his men in the Northwest Army.
Rong Xuan naturally wouldn't just sit there and wait for death. During this time, he stayed in the capital to make friends with colleagues and planted many people everywhere. However, the time was too short, not enough for him to do anything.
So, he had to go back to the northwest, which was his world.
On the very night that Si Ke woke up, Rong Xuan came to the villa with only one purpose: to send her away first.
"You go to the northwest first to meet up with your father and brothers. I'll take care of things here and then go back. No later than a month." Rong Xuan hugged her from behind. Although his voice was soft, it was filled with an irresistible dominance.
Si Ke naturally knew that this arrangement was made with her safety in mind. She was already a dead person in Rong Heng's eyes, so naturally no one would bother her. But if she went with him, if he escaped the capital, she would face endless pursuit.
"Okay!" Si Ke nodded and did not refute. Instead, he seemed unusually obedient.
Seeing her like this, Rong Xuan felt relieved but also a little uneasy. So he gave her a heavy kiss, as if to keep this sweet feeling deep in his heart.
……
The next morning, Si Ke and Ling Shuang set off. Rong Xuan had originally arranged a carriage with a skilled driver to escort them back to the northwest, but Si Ke had refused.
Both she and Ling Shuang were skilled in martial arts, and riding a horse was much faster than riding a carriage, so there was no need to go through so much trouble.
If Rong Xuan insisted on sending someone to escort her, then she would not leave and would stay to share the hardships with him.
Rong Xuan had no way to deal with her and finally compromised.
Si Ke and Ling Shuang, both dressed neatly in black and wearing cloaks, rode at full speed for three days. After arriving at a small town, they stopped going forward and went straight to an inn to settle down.
"Miss, are you planning to wait for the master here?" Si Ke's behavior was not difficult to guess. Seeing this, Ling Shuang did not beat around the bush and wanted to ask clearly.
Si Ke nodded.
"Miss, my duty is to escort you back to the northwest. Please don't make things difficult for me." Ling Shuang frowned and looked at Si Ke with disapproval.
But Si Ke smiled helplessly and said firmly: "You should know that his journey back to the northwest will be full of difficulties. I can't abandon him. Ling Shuang, I won't leave. Of course, you can also inform him. I know you must have your own way of sending messages. However, if he makes any move, I promise that I won't take you with me on the rest of the journey."
This was also the reason why she didn't reject Rong Xuan at the time. Staying by his side would only distract him, so it would be better to wait outside. This would not only reassure him, but at the critical moment, she might even be able to surprise him.
Ling Shuang finally compromised. She knew she couldn't do anything to Si Ke. Tian Yi had also told her that Si Ke was skilled in martial arts and not weak. Since she wouldn't be a burden to her master, what else could she do? If she really abandoned herself, she would have no way to report to her boss.
The two of them stayed in the small town for over half a month, but there was no news of Rong Xuan leaving the capital. Instead, Lao Liu told her another piece of news: Rong Xuan's beloved daughter, Lu Xian'er, had returned to the capital. On the very day Lu Xian'er returned to the capital, Rong Heng issued an imperial decree granting their marriage, ordering them to marry one month later. Rong Xuan accepted the decree directly.
Rong Xuan was unloved in the palace from a young age, suffering from constant bullying from his brothers and even the palace maids. Lu Xian'er's aunt, the late emperor's concubine, was often summoned to the palace as a child. During one such visit, she inadvertently saved Rong Xuan, who was being severely bullied. Since then, she has often cared for Rong Xuan, even speaking up for him. They were childhood sweethearts. Later, when Rong Xuan left for the military camp, Lu Xian'er was the only one to see him off, promising to wait for his return.
It wasn't until Lu Xian'er came of age, two years ago, that Prime Minister Lu took a liking to Rong Heng, then the Crown Prince, and wanted to arrange a marriage between his daughter and Rong Heng, making Lu Xian'er the Crown Princess. Naturally, Lu Xian'er was reluctant. However, since ancient times, marriages have been arranged by parents and matchmakers. Seeing that her father wouldn't convince her, she resolutely left the capital and went to the largest nunnery in Qingcheng, where she began a life of constant companionship with ancient Buddhist monks and ancient lamps.
"Host, aren't you worried at all? Lu Xian'er is different from others. She and Rong Xuan are in love. Aren't you afraid that your husband will be abducted by someone?" Lao Liu said a lot, and seeing that Si Ke had no reaction at all, he flew around in the space anxiously.
"What I'm more concerned about is why you didn't tell me such an important plot at the beginning?" Si Ke's tone was indifferent, without any emotion in it.
"Because there is no arranged marriage part in the original plot. At this time, Rong Xuan is already on his way back to the northwest." Lao Liu explained.
Si Ke understood it immediately.
In order to delay the relocation of the Si family, she stayed sick in the palace, causing Rong Xuan to be dragged here as well, and the entire timeline became divergent.
"Don't worry about it. Under normal circumstances, Lu Xian'er is indeed a threat. But now... have you forgotten what kind of person Rong Heng is? That man will not do anything without benefits. If I'm not mistaken, Lu Xian'er is either his person or she has reached some agreement with him. In short, if it is not beneficial to him, he would not be so anxious to grant the marriage." Seeing Lao Liu's anxious tone, Si Ke did not make trouble and expressed his analysis.
"And if I can see it, do you think Rong Xuan can't see it? Of course, if he really chooses Lu Xian'er, it's fine. At worst, after this mission is completed, I'll take you to the Swordsman of Legends, where you can live a carefree life. You can even find some young men when you're free. Isn't that better than now?" It's not that Si Ke is truly open-minded, but she had reservations about this relationship from the beginning. Perhaps it was the idea of having three wives and four concubines that was already deeply rooted in people's minds in this era, or perhaps it was because she and Rong Xuan were rarely together and never really got to know each other. In short, as for the depth of their feelings, it really wasn't.
"Host, I think you are just itching to do something. What you mean by 'Smiling Proudly in the Wanderer' is a high-sounding statement, but what you really want to do is beat and kill people." Lao Liu spoke in a proud tone. Don't think he doesn't know that this dog host has a violent tendency.
"Wow! I didn't realize you had the potential to be a roundworm." Si Ke teased, but he felt warm in his heart.
Regardless of whether Lao Liu had such a high IQ and knew how to divert attention, at this moment, Si Ke's mood was indeed much better.
