Shen Nanxing returned to the tent.
Seeing Fu Jiuli lying well in bed, the anger in his heart dissipated a little.
She took off her shoes quietly, got on the bed, and lay down gently.
After a while, she moved towards him, then moved again, and then moved again...
Finally approached the man's warm body.
After thinking for a moment, she turned sideways, put one hand on the man, and rubbed her face on his arm.
Fu Jiuli's whole body stiffened.
He should push her away.
But his hands were out of control and he couldn't move them at all...
"Fu Jiuli, hold me..."
The woman's soft voice sounded from the side of my ear.
Fu Jiuli twisted her fingers gently, pursed her lips slightly, and said nothing.
In the night, ink-black colors surged in his beautiful black eyes.
The woman's long eyelashes trembled. She looked at the man's handsome profile and said with a strong sense of grievance in her voice: "Fu Jiuli, don't you want to hug me?"
The man's body was tense, and his other hand was tightly gripping the cushion under him, almost crushing the fabric.
Finally, he said, "No."
"Nothing?" the woman asked softly.
The man opened his thin lips and said, "I'm not unwilling."
Shen Nanxing's eyes lit up: "Then hug me."
Fu Jiuli finally let go of the cushion, turned slightly to the side, and placed his hand loosely on the woman.
The woman's fragrance and tenderness invaded all his senses in an instant.
He didn't dare move anymore.
A smile flashed across Shen Nanxing's eyes. She raised her hand and pulled his arm towards her until it completely wrapped around her waist.
In this way, her whole body was held in his arms.
She looked at him with a sly smile in her eyes: "Have you learned it? This is how to hug..."
After waiting for a long while, I heard the man say "hmm".
The tent fell into silence again.
Another moment passed.
Shen Nanxing blinked her eyes: "Fu Jiuli, kiss me."
Fu Jiuli patted her back and said, "Go to sleep."
"Kiss me and I'll go to sleep."
Fu Jiuli: ...
His lips slowly moved closer and kissed the top of her head.
Just as he was about to step away, the woman in his arms suddenly looked up and quickly pecked him on the lips.
By the time he reacted, the culprit had buried his face in his arms and could not be seen at all.
Therefore, the woman missed the smile in the man's eyes.
That smile clearly revealed helplessness, doting, and joy...
The two people on the bed slept in each other's arms, with only the sound of their breathing being tender and lingering.
Someone was sleeping soundly.
Someone holds his beloved tightly in his arms and keeps his eyes open until dawn.
......
The Northern Yue Royal Palace, Xiyue Palace.
Concubine Duan was lying comfortably on the chaise longue, squinting her eyes and enjoying the two maids massaging her shoulders and legs. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a man hurriedly walking in from outside.
Concubine Duan frowned: "Yu'er, why are you here again today?"
"Didn't Mother just give you three hundred taels of silver three days ago? And you've spent it all so quickly?"
Xie Tingyu's face froze.
Now Prince Jing's Mansion is just an empty shell and he has no salary.
Everything costs money, and a mere three hundred taels is all I have left to buy Yi'er a hairpin...
Shen Nanxing's dowry was indeed generous, but it was all kept well by her maid Chun Xing, who would not let him touch even a penny of it.
She also threatened him, saying that he had already written the divorce agreement, and even if it had not yet been stamped by the government, Shen Nanxing's dowry would no longer have anything to do with him.
If he takes it by force, she will report it to the police!
He also wanted to shout it out in the streets, letting everyone in the capital know that he stole the princess's dowry while she was leading the troops away to war...
If this is true, will he still have any face left?
Therefore, no matter how poor he was, he would not dare to use Shen Nanxing's dowry rashly.
He could only go to the palace to ask his mother for some every few days.
But he didn't come here for this matter today.
He sat down on the chair opposite Concubine Duan with a sullen face and said, "Mother, I don't want any money today. I have something important to tell you."
After saying this, he glanced at the two maids serving Concubine Duan.
Concubine Duan looked at the two maids and said, "You go down first. Guard the door and don't let anyone approach."
"Yes!"
After the two maids left, only mother and son were left in the hall.
Concubine Duan asked hurriedly, "What happened?"
Xie Tingyu's face was extremely grim: "Zhang Hongsheng stole the defense map and gave it to the Donglai people. The matter has been exposed."
Concubine Duan's face turned pale instantly. She stood up suddenly and asked, "What about him? How is he?"
Xie Tingyu continued, "Because he failed, Shen Nanxing not only survived, but also recaptured the three cities that were taken from us by Donglai, and captured ten more cities from Donglai, making a great contribution!"
"The army will be returning to the capital soon. When she returns, she will take the divorce agreement to the government for stamping. Then not only will I not be able to get the Mingwei Iron Cavalry, but I won't even get a penny of her dowry!"
Xie Tingyu gripped the armrests of the chair tightly, his veins bulging, and his eyes were filled with extreme hatred.
"Zhang Hongsheng is a piece of trash!"
Concubine Duan could no longer bear it and yelled, "Shut up!"
Xie Tingyu became even angrier. He stood up and looked directly at Concubine Duan: "Isn't he a loser? He promised us so confidently that this would work. We trusted him so much, but what happened? He can't even handle a small matter..."
Concubine Duan slammed the table and said, "Xie Tingyu, I told you to shut up! Are you deaf?"
Xie Tingyu was stunned, and the rest of the words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't say any more.
Mother hadn't called him by his full name for years. She only did so when she was extremely angry...
Why today?
Before he could figure it out, he saw his mother with tears in her eyes and trembling lips asking, "Yu'er, tell me, how is Zhang Hongsheng... him?"
Xie Tingyu frowned, trying to ignore the strangeness and discomfort in his heart, and curled his lips: "He was captured, and then..."
"What then?" Concubine Duan held his arms tightly with both hands.
Xie Tingyu licked his lips, feeling rather uneasy: "He still had some conscience. He hit his head against his head to help me hide the evidence."
"This way, I won't be involved in this matter..."
As he was speaking, he noticed something was wrong with his mother.
Concubine Duan's eyes seemed to lose their luster in an instant, her face turned pale, and she collapsed to the ground.
Xie Tingyu quickly helped the person up, looking anxious: "Mother, what happened to you? This matter will not be traced back to me, you don't have to worry..."
But Concubine Duan only glanced at him, blinked, and tears began to fall.
Xie Tingyu had never seen his mother like this before. He was so panicked that he quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears: "Don't cry, mother. I will be fine, really."
Concubine Duan sobbed for a while, then gasped for breath, looking at Xie Tingyu with red eyes: "Yu'er, can you think of a way to bring his body back...?"
