Quick Wear: The soft cannon fodder turns into a heartthrob and seduce

Mu Zhou was awakened by the sound of fighting.

She sat up and found that Chu Jinyao was not there and the carriage had stopped.

Just as I was curious and wanted to lift the curtain to ask the nanny, I heard the nanny's voice:

"Miss, there's an accident outside. The general is dealing with it. Please rest in the carriage for a while."

Mu Zhou stopped, sat back down, and listened to 0001 describe what happened after she fell asleep.

When Mu Zhou learned that Qu Hongyu had 'accidentally' learned about Liang Wei's glorious 'fickle' deeds from her, he remembered Liang Wei's guilty look before she left.

She couldn't help but smile.

I underestimated her.

The sound of fighting outside almost disappeared. Mu Zhou saw through the gap in the curtain that under a big tree in the distance, Qu Hongyu was being stepped on painfully by Chu Jinyao.

Mu Zhou curled his lips calmly.

idiot.

Qu Hongyu didn't even think about it. She was about to marry Chu Jinyao, so how could she not have secret guards protecting her?

How could his servants compare to a general's secret guards fighting on the battlefield?

Moreover, just on the surface, the number of people accompanying her exceeded that of many ministers' daughters when they traveled, which shows how much Chu Jinyao valued her.

This was also what Chu Jinyao did for others to see.

After all, she has a low status and the title of widow, and Chu Jinyao will not let anyone look down on her.

No matter what other people think, no one would offend him at this time.

Except for the idiot Qu Hongyu.

If something happened to him, how could Chu Jinyao let him go?

Mu Zhou leaned on the soft pillow and yawned. The moment the curtain was lifted, she put away her lazy look and nervously grabbed the blanket in front of her.

What caught Chu Jinyao's eyes was tears in her eyes and her little face looked nervous and worried.

His chest felt sour, and he subconsciously comforted her: "It's okay, don't be afraid."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Mu Zhou could no longer hold back and threw himself into his arms.

She put her arms around his neck and buried them in his chest.

Chu Jinyao held her firmly and stroked her back with heartache.

The person in his arms seemed to be getting thinner and thinner, and felt light and soft in his arms, as if his waist would be broken if he exerted a little force.

He carefully held her close to his chest, afraid that she would overthink things, and explained a few words: "Qu Hongyu is trying to make trouble again, but don't be afraid, he won't have this opportunity in the future."

"Ah."

Mu Zhou didn't look up, but just buried his head in his chest and groaned.

When the carriage started moving again, Mu Zhou could see the scene outside the window through the fluttering curtain.

A large group of servants were lying on the ground in a mess. Qu Hongyu was leaning against a tree. He seemed to be awake, but he didn't have the strength to stand up.

Seeing the carriage moving, he subconsciously wanted to hide.

Mu Zhou withdrew his gaze.

After returning from the temple, Mu Zhou received all the items sent by the general's mansion.

These were the dowry and betrothal gifts prepared for her by Chu Jinyao.

Mu Zhou was bored and started flipping through the gift book.

Page after page was filled with all kinds of rare items. Mu Zhou was stunned when he saw a name.

Cui Yu Zhai? Isn’t this the rouge shop where I ran into Qu Hongyu last time?

Chu Jinyao actually bought it and gave it to her as a dowry.

Thinking of the situation at that time, Mu Zhou laughed.

Is this revenge for her?

He is indeed a reserved and reserved person. He looks like a straight man who knows nothing, but he has done everything he should do.

She put down the booklet and said to the servant beside her, "Let's go to the shop and take a look."

*

At this time, the waiters in the rouge shop had already been replaced by a new group of people.

These people seemed to have received training. When they saw Mu Zhou, they immediately came forward and poured him tea.

Before Mu Zhou could speak, a figure rushed in.

"Miss Mu!"

The people around Mu Zhou instantly became nervous and stopped her behind them to protect her.

Mu Zhou looked at the person who came in surprise.

It’s Feng Chu.

He looked exhausted, his brows were furrowed, and his emotions seemed a little out of control.

"Miss Mu, I have been wanting to see you these past few days, but the people around General Chu stopped me from seeing you."

When it comes to Chu Jinyao, he can't help but grit his teeth.

No wonder he begged the general to help mediate that day, but the general refused and even warned him to give up.

It turned out that the general himself had also started to have such thoughts.

After hitting a wall with the general, he went back and told his parents about his intention to marry Mu Zhou, but was naturally opposed.

He went on a hunger strike and knelt in the ancestral hall, determined to marry Mu Zhou even if it meant being branded as unfilial.

Just when his mother was about to give in, news came that the emperor had granted the marriage.

He was struck by lightning.

How could His Majesty know about Mu Zhou's affairs, and he would not arrange a marriage for General Chu at will.

It could only be that General Chu went to ask for it personally.

Sure enough, news soon spread that this marriage was obtained by General Chu in exchange for his military merits.

Thinking back to the scene in the study that day, Feng Chu felt cold all over.

He wanted to find Mu Zhou and ask her if she was willing.

But then he realized that he couldn't even enter the alley.

Today, he finally seized the opportunity to meet Mu Zhou.

He looked at Mu Zhou again, with pity in his eyes.

The general has been robbing and plundering, and Miss Mu must have suffered a lot recently.

When they parted that day, he clearly said he would wait for her answer.

But when they met again, she had already been married off by the Emperor.

Feng Chu couldn't help feeling sad for a while.

Mu Zhou also looked at him.

It's only been a few days since we last met, but he has already become haggard from his handsome scholar appearance. I guess he hasn't had a good time these days.

She sighed and advised:

"I wonder what General Feng wants to talk to me about?"

Feng Chu looked at the people around him, wanting to say something but stopping himself, so Mu Zhou asked the guards to leave.

*

In the private room of the Rouge Shop, Feng Chu looked at Mu Zhou with longing.

It was his fault for not being able to protect Mu Zhou.

In fact, he himself knew that there was absolutely no possibility for him and Mu Zhou.

The emperor has issued the imperial decree for the marriage, and no one can change it.

Even if he doesn't want fame and fortune, he can't ignore his family.

Disobeying the imperial order is a capital crime.

Seeing his tangled expression, Mu Zhou said:

"General Feng, I'll take what I said before as a joke. Don't mention it again. When the general and I get married, remember to come to the wedding."

Feng Chu almost cried when he heard her say this:

"Miss Mu, do you really want to marry General Chu?"

This was the second time someone asked Mu Zhou this question.

Coincidentally, this time Chu Jinyao was still listening outside.

When Mu Zhou found out, he almost couldn't hold back the smile on his face.

She wiped the corners of her mouth with her handkerchief after drinking the tea, smoothed her smile, and said to Feng Chu seriously:

"General Chu is very good to me. I am very grateful to him. Marrying him may be the best choice for me."

After hearing her say this, Feng Chu lost all his strength and sat there dejectedly.

Chu Jinyao outside the door did not hide like last time, but pushed the door open and walked in.

Feng Chu stood up suddenly when he saw him.

Although she secretly resented Chu Jinyao in her heart, she was still respectful and afraid when she saw him.

Chu Jinyao ignored his secretly resentful gaze, sat calmly beside Mu Zhou, took a sip of tea from her cup to moisten her throat, and then looked up at Feng Chu.
