In the years of famine, I led a comfortable life with my husband

night.

Xie Chengjin lay on the bed, extremely nervous, mumbling to himself, "What should I do? I'm so nervous! We're going to the capital soon."

At the same time, Su Zhizhi, who was standing by, frowned tightly when she heard what Xie Chengjin said. She always felt that Xie Chengjin's behavior in the past few days was very strange, as if he was very eager to go to the capital.

"Are you hiding something from me?" Su Zhizhi couldn't help but look at Xie Chengjin and asked.

Xie Chengjin was confused by Su Zhizhi's words and subconsciously denied it, "No! What's wrong?"

Su Zhizhi observed Xie Chengjin with a strange expression and then slowly said, "Did you keep a mistress in the capital or do something shameful behind my back?"

Xie Chengjin couldn't help but burst out laughing when he heard the sound.

"Hahaha, why is your train of thought so cute?" The whole room was filled with Xie Chengjin's laughter.

"I didn't. I was just excited and thrilled because it was my first time going to Beijing. And how could I cheat? Have you forgotten that my whole body and heart belong to you now..." Facing Su Zhizhi's questioning, Xie Chengjin patiently explained.

As Xie Chengjin spoke, he pulled Su Zhizhi into his arms and then said gently, "Besides, our Zhizhi is so beautiful, smart, and considerate. How could I bear to fall for other women? I'm not blind."

Feeling Xie Chengjin's hot breath spraying on her body, Su Zhizhi's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and her face had already turned extremely red.

Su Zhizhi realized that her body couldn't withstand Xie Chengjin's provocation, so she quickly stopped him and said, "Okay, stop! I believe you now. I haven't washed up yet, I'll go wash up first.

After saying that, Su Zhizhi ran away.

Su Zhizhi ran out of the room to wash up and felt much more awake in an instant after feeling the cold wind. She was deeply aware that her self-control was very poor and she could not withstand Xie Chengjin's teasing. She would blush easily when Xie Chengjin teased her. This was not acceptable. Wouldn't it be easy for Xie Chengjin to take control of her?

No, she has to learn to face the temptation of Xie Chengjin's beauty and increase her composure.

Su Zhizhi swore secretly.

Time passed quickly, and within a few days it was the day when Su Zhizhi was about to leave for the capital.

Before leaving, Su Zhizhi specifically asked Xu Qingyun to help take care of her family. After spending these days together, Su Zhizhi felt that Xu Qingyun was a careful, serious and kind person, so she was very relieved to let him take care of the house and the restaurant.

After giving some instructions about the restaurant and home, Su Zhizhi and Xie Chengjin boarded the carriage to the capital.

The remote countryside where they were located was so desolate and isolated that it took several days of carriage ride to get to the capital. It was completely incomparable to modern trains and planes. When Su Zhizhi thought about how many days it would take to get there, she suddenly felt like she was going to die.

The roads in ancient times were not well repaired, and Su Zhizhi felt very uncomfortable sitting in the swaying carriage, but fortunately, Xie Chengjin was always with her. Perhaps he felt that Su Zhizhi was not in good condition, so Xie Chengjin tried every possible way to make Su Zhizhi happy on the way, such as reading picture books to her and telling her some interesting folk rumors to entertain her.

With Xie Chengjin's careful company, Su Zhizhi no longer felt as bored as before, and her affection for Xie Chengjin continued to grow.

In this way, several days passed by without them noticing.

early morning.

Su Zhizhi woke up in the carriage, yawned and stretched. She could hardly remember how many days she had been traveling today, and Xie Chengjin was sleeping soundly beside her.

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves outside suddenly woke Xie Chengjin up.

Su Zhizhi and Xie Chengjin looked at each other, and they both had a very bad premonition in their hearts. Could it be that they had encountered bandits?

Xie Chengjin lifted a corner of the carriage curtain and looked out, only to find that what he feared was indeed what came true. He saw a group of bandits with machetes and malicious looks surrounding the carriage.

"What happened to us?" Su Zhizhi looked at Xie Chengjin with horror.

"We have encountered bandits. You stay in the carriage and I will go down to negotiate with them. If we fail, you can take the opportunity to drive away in the carriage." Xie Chengjin instructed Su Zhizhi.

After saying this, he got off the carriage without hesitation.

Xie Chengjin looked at the bandits calmly and said, "I wonder what you brothers are doing by stopping our carriage?"

The leading gangster glanced at Xie Chengjin indifferently, as if he thought what Xie Chengjin said was a little ridiculous. So he picked up his big knife and pointed it at Xie Chengjin's nose and said, "We all have knives. What do you think? This place in the wilderness is definitely a robbery! Otherwise, how about playing with you?"

The other party asked back.

After saying that, they didn't give Xie Chengjin a chance to speak again. At a command, everyone rushed towards Xie Chengjin at a rapid speed.

"Brothers, stop fussing with this pretty boy and come on."

After saying that, a group of people swarmed towards Xie Chengjin.

In this way, the two sides became entangled with each other.

At the same time, Su Zhizhi heard the fierce fighting outside and wanted to come out to help Xie Chengjin. Unexpectedly, she was discovered by the bandits as soon as she got out of the carriage.

The bandit observed Su Zhizhi carefully and found that she had very delicate features and was a rare beauty. So he excitedly said to his companions, "Stop fighting. Look, there's a woman in the carriage. She's very beautiful, like a fairy."

As soon as these words were spoken, they instantly attracted everyone's attention. Even the man who was fighting with Xie Chengjin suddenly didn't want to fight with Xie Chengjin anymore. He dodged and rode his horse towards Su Zhizhi while Xie Chengjin wasn't paying attention. Then he pulled Su Zhizhi onto the horse and left with the other bandits.

Seeing this, Xie Chengjin wanted to step forward to stop them, but he was stopped by other bandits after taking a few steps. In this way, Xie Chengjin finally watched Su Zhizhi being taken away by this group of bandits.

Xie Chengjin was very worried. In desperation, he could only ask people nearby to find out about the news and origins of this group of bandits, and then they would find a way to rescue Su Zhizhi.

As for Su Zhizhi, the bandits took her back to the village and locked her in a room.

Su Zhizhi was locked up for most of the day, until her stomach growled with hunger. Someone slowly opened the door, and a girl ran towards her excitedly, "Miss, get ready! Congratulations on being chosen by our king. We're going to have a wedding tonight."
