Chapter 113 Drinking Song

He was prepared that the enchantress who bewitched Huo Jingheng would have an outstanding appearance, but he did not expect that he would be captivated by those brown eyes at first glance.

They stood there dumbfounded, completely unable to process what was happening.

After a while.

"Get out!" he yelled at the dumbfounded soldiers.

He and she were left staring at each other in bewilderment.

She ignored him and continued fiddling with the storybook in her hand on the couch.

Wei Zhongqing took a few steps closer. He wanted to speak to her, but he felt like he was mute, standing there for a long time without being able to utter a word. After a long while, he finally managed to squeeze out, "What are you looking at?"

"Would you like to read the Tales of the Strange?" She didn't like this human very much; he always looked at her with hostility. However, Huo Jingheng respected him, so Jin Huan was still quite polite to him.

"Alright." He had completely forgotten that he had come to interrogate this witch.

Wei Zhongqing took the booklet she handed him and was about to sit down when she frowned slightly: "This is my and Jingheng's couch, you can sit there."

The man who was rejected was stunned for a few minutes.

"Ah."

He had prepared a whole host of interrogations, but he didn't utter a single word.

With a hint of grievance, she sat down alone on a chair.

She sat there for about half an hour without saying a word, not knowing what to say. The silence in the room was even more agonizing than before.

Men and women should not be too close, and she is not yet married, and she has that kind of relationship with her nephew. It would be inappropriate for her to stay with him for too long.

About half an incense stick later.

He had no choice but to get up: "Then I'll be going?"

"Ah."

Wei Zhongqing had no choice but to leave, but even as he walked out of the tent, the woman lying on the couch did not raise her head once.

......

Here, living a life of hardship and sleeping in the open, Jin Huan had never experienced such suffering before. Every time, those men treated her like royalty, pampering her with fine clothes and delicacies.

Fortunately, Huo Jingheng was a fierce killer, and within a few months he had fought his way to Lake Bei.

From then on, just as he had hoped, he sealed the Wolf-Dwelling Mountain to offer sacrifices to Heaven, and the Jade-Greeting Mountain to offer sacrifices to Earth. He inscribed a stone on Yanran Mountain, and his horses drank from the vast sea before returning. Afterwards, the Xiongnu fled far away, and there was no royal court south of the Gobi Desert. Wherever the sword pointed, it was all territory.

The day of the triumphant return to the capital

She didn't go with Huo Jingheng to meet the emperor. She was tired of that shabby palace. That scoundrel wanted to keep his beloved in a golden cage, but he should at least consider whether he had enough power. She wouldn't give up other Shenhuan Pearls for the sake of one!

Jin Huan was first sent to Huo Jingheng's residence to rest.

However, in no time, the news that Huo Jingheng had brought back a stunning beauty from the northern desert spread like wildfire.

Even Emperor Wu had heard of it.

Huo Jingheng didn't hide anything, only asking Emperor Wu to grant him a marriage.

Wei Zhongqing, who was standing to the side, clenched his clothes tightly in an instant.

"Why don't you bring her here so I can take a look?" Emperor Wu would naturally grant his request, but he was also very curious about this beauty. "Your Majesty, may I ask for your permission first?" Huo Jingheng knew how lethal Jin Huan's beauty was, and fearing that unforeseen circumstances might arise, he could only say this.

Emperor Wu laughed heartily: "This is the first time I've seen you like this."

"I hope Your Majesty will grant my request first."

"Yes."

Emperor Wu personally wrote the marriage certificate and bestowed it upon him in full view of everyone.

Jin Huan was taken aback when she received the summons. Should she go?

But the unfamiliar eunuch in front of her was urging her on, and she was just glad it wasn't one of those other attendants.

......

A eunuch came to announce the news.

Emperor Wu was overjoyed: "Summon her in."

"promise."

"Summon the Shen clan of Mobei to an audience." A woman with a veil covering her face entered the hall and smiled at Huo Jingheng as she walked to his side.

Emperor Wu froze the moment she stepped into the hall.

"Did you think I wouldn't recognize you just because you're wearing a veil?" He almost gritted his teeth as he called out her name: "Shen Jinhuan!"
