Shocking! In this matriarchal society, every man wants to marry me!

"Is that Lord Xia?"

Master Li slowly looked over and said, "Your Majesty, yes, the imperial physician has seen Lord Xia and there is nothing seriously wrong. The husband of an outsider should not reside in the palace for long. Consort Le escorted Lord Xia out of the palace."

His Majesty held back for a long time before suppressing the urge to make Xia Muning stop and say a few words to him in a gentle manner.

His Majesty simply stood there quietly, watching Xia Muning's figure gradually disappear into the palace.

Master Li carefully observed His Majesty's expression, his heart filled with malice. His Majesty had already given up on the idea of ​​Xia Muning, but Master Li would not allow it!

She loathed Zhongtian! She wanted Zhongtian and Xia Muning to live in constant fear! She wanted Zhongtian to live in constant fear that her husband would be taken away by the supreme ruler!

Upon arriving outside the palace, Shi Shu waited anxiously, only breathing a sigh of relief when she saw Xia Mu Ning arrive.

Xia Muning thanked her and gently said to Yue Wentao, "Lord Yue, I am very grateful for your care in the palace!"

Yesterday, the young tutor that Yue Wentao sent out went missing, and Yue Wentao realized that her plan had failed. Xia Muning's offer of help was ambiguous, but Yue Wentao's expression remained unchanged. She gladly accepted it and even kindly offered a word of advice:

"Stay away from His Majesty. The farther you are from His Majesty, the safer you will be!"

Xia Muning nodded, indicating that he understood.

After Yue Wentao entered the palace, Master Li appeared and rushed over. He looked at Xia Muning's clothes and his face turned pale.

"what happened?"

"Lord Xia, have you encountered His Majesty?"

Xia Muning shook his head.

Master Li was relieved and said seriously to Xia Muning, "Lord Xia, when you return to the manor, immediately take off these clothes, put them away properly, and never wear them again! These are your brother's clothes!"

Xia Muning's face turned pale instantly.

Master Li had such a wicked mind; his heart was instantly filled with fear, and even the joy of being able to leave the palace vanished.

Xia Muning was in a bad mood, and the steward of the music hall was also living in a state of unease.

General Yue is throwing a tantrum. She is a military officer, and when she gets angry, she is extremely destructive. Tables and chairs have been destroyed one after another!

General Yue was extremely displeased. She had just encountered a good thing: her younger brother Zhou had given birth to a very healthy baby girl the night before last. There were now two girls in the household, although neither of them were her biological children.

General Yue was overjoyed and immediately went to deliver the good news to her two sons!

The eldest son's letter arrived first. He was restricted in every way in the palace and could only reply with one letter, which included some treasures and congratulations to his mother. General Yue was already unhappy!

What angered him even more was that his letter to his second son went unanswered, without even a reply.

She held her breath, waiting until now, and still hadn't received a reply. General Yue was furious!

The steward stood outside, trembling with fear. Yu Yijin came over with some snacks, peeked inside quietly, and said to the worried steward, "Don't worry, I'll go and persuade the general!"

The butler nodded hastily.

The butler had mixed feelings about Yu Yijin, but there was definitely some admiration in his eyes.

In court, Lord Yu, for the sake of his bastard ex-fiancée, admitted his shameful past and gave the General's Mansion a resounding slap in the face.

The steward thought Yu Yijin would be disgusted with him and be kicked out of the general's mansion! But Yu Yijin managed to turn this unfavorable situation around.

After he returned, he knelt silently outside the general's study for three days, until the general's heart softened and he came out to see him.

As soon as the general appeared, Yu Yijin's feigned strength crumbled instantly. She hugged the general's waist and cried miserably.

Tears are a man's best weapon against a woman, especially since Yu Yijin is young and beautiful. He hugged General Le's waist while making a pitiful promise.

"General, General, I know I was wrong. I will forget everything from the past and serve you well. I beg you to be magnanimous and forgive me this once!"

General Yue looked at him coldly.

Yu Yijin placed General Le's rough hands, which were somewhat callous from long hours of wielding weapons, on his smooth face and spoke gently.

"The General's Mansion is my home! If you kick me out, I will have nowhere to go! General, how are we supposed to live? I promise, if I ever have any connection with my past again, you can slap this face hard!"

General Yue stared quietly for a while at her weak, beautiful, and even somewhat humble husband, whom she doted on, before slapping him hard across the face.

The slap was quite hard, making Yu Yijin's face turn red, and he slumped softly into General Le's arms.

General Yue looked at him with a deep expression, then carried the limp Yu Yijin back into the house.

The next day, General Yue ordered a thorough investigation of those gossiping in the mansion, and forbade the spread of any rumors detrimental to the general and his consort.

The butler then knew the matter was over!

The butler watched coldly from the sidelines.

Yu Yijin was like a different person. He served General Le obediently and took great care of him, always referring to him as "General" and "child." However, he was also decisive and efficient in the mansion, which was kept in perfect order. He had the demeanor of a head husband in a general's mansion.

Her heart has also become kinder! After Zhou Xiaodi gave birth and was able to get out of bed, he was in a hurry to leave. It was Yu Yijin who gave him money, arranged a carriage, and found an old man who specializes in taking care of men during their postpartum period.

Judge by deeds, not intentions! Yu Yijin's reputation was gradually being restored.

Yu Yijin brought the snacks into the room. Upon seeing Yu Yijin, General Le's anger subsided considerably, but she still maintained a cold expression: "Don't come in when I'm angry, or I might accidentally hurt you!"

Yu Yijin placed the pastries on the table, then took one with her slender hand and held it to General Yue's lips: "General, you are angry. As your husband, if I cannot carefully comfort you, but instead keep my distance for fear of getting hurt, that would be a dereliction of duty! General, anger is bad for your health, so please try some of my pastries."

This dessert contains a lot of sugar, which may be a bit too much for some people, but it's just right for General Yue, who loves sweets.

General Yue's mood improved after eating the sweets, and she hugged Yu Yijin tightly, so tightly that Yu Yijin felt a little pain.

General Yue laughed: "Xingxi is recuperating! She's probably depressed, so I'll go up the mountain myself to tell her the good news!"
