Everybody knew that though Leng Changxi did not drink wine in daily time, he did be a good drinker. The Leng Army always called this Grand General as Stay Sober After A Thousand Bottle of Wine.
People nearby understood what Leng Changxi meant immediately. He just wanted to have intercourse with his pretty bride. Now his subordinates who were disciplined in daily time turned to be fearless and shouted to Leng Changxi, "General, NO! We can't drink wine in the military camp, but today you have to drink with us."
Shang Xianhua stood out and said, "Fine, I drink the wine for Grand General. OK?"
Somebody shouted, "No way. Though General Shang was the close henchman of General Leng, it is the wedding day of General Leng. You were not from Qin Family or Prince Ning's Mansion. You have no right to drink for General Leng."
Noisy people did not let Leng Changxi off. Princess Ning was busy receiving guests and only glimpsed at Leng Changxi at
On the second day, just after dawn, Qin Yunuan opened her eyes in a daze. It already seemed early in the mansion of Grand Commandant, and today was the first day after her marriage.Thinking of this, Qin Yunuan couldn't help looking at her side. She saw Leng Changxi, who was still asleep. His face was so beautiful under the golden sunlight as if it had been carefully polished by the creator. It was so unique and perfect.Qin Yunuan turned her head, enjoying the unique tranquility in the morning. A smile appeared on her face without her knowing it. Last night, she gave herself to him completely, and she was happy about it.Suddenly, Leng Changxi, who had been sleeping, suddenly said, "If you look at me like this again, I would think that this is an invitation to some actions.""What?" Qin Yunuan was confused.Leng Changxi suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Qin Yunuan for a long time. His dark pupil solely reflected
The forced smile on Ruan Ruyi's face froze when she heard what Leng Changxi said. With an embarrassed look, Concubine Tan stepped forward to greet Qin Yunuan at once, who looked agreeable behind Leng Changxi. She held her hand and flattered, "Well, I guess you are Infanta Ping, right? You are as pretty as I had thought. I'm very pleased with you.""That's all right," Leng Changxi said indifferently. Fired from the black mask, his severe eyes showed that he was distant to persons not concerned, "But what really matters is whether mother likes or not. After all, Yunuan is her daughter-in-law. Yours is standing beside you, Concubine Tang."These words were sharp and straightforward, which dispelled the fake enthusiasm of Concubine Tang right away, who intended to put on a good face at first. Leaning against the pillow on the worn dark green couch, Princess Ning only gave a gentle smile, instead of stopping Leng Changxi from playing it off against Concubine Tan
"I'm waiting for you, my third younger sister-in-law." Ruan Ruyi said twitchily. Although she is also the daughter of a concubine in the palace of Gaoyang, she was born in a royal family. Asking for help from a daughter of a concubine from the mansion of Grand Commandant was not what she wanted."It's still for the shops east of the city," Ruan Ruyi said anxiously, "You know, now that my third brother-in-law is famous, his elder brother still has his work to be taken care of because of his official positions. As you may have known, it needs money. My dowry couldn't compare with your richness. Since our mother has given you three shops, I don't think it was difficult to give us one out of three. Chang’an and Changxi are, after all, brothers. If Chang’an had settled down on his official position, he could have also help Changxi. Am I right?"It was about benefits, after all. Qin Yunuan nodded, smiling and responding in a very polite manner, "That was a nice t
Qin Yunuan was nested in Leng Changxi's arms, surrounded by his love and tenderness. She nodded in response and seemed to speak unintentionally, "I heard that my Grand sister would marry next month on the nineteenth."Leng Changxi responded slowly, "I will send them a great gift."The two hugged for a while. Then Qingzhu, the maid who worked for Princess Ning, came again with gifts of all kinds."The caterpillar fungus from West Xia is to build up the health of the Third Young Master. The Tianshan snow lotus of North Di is for Third Young Madam...." Qingzhu pointed at each object and introduced it to Qin Yunuan and Leng Changxi."This is something even better," Qingzhu said with a smile, "The Lapsang souchong from Mountain Mao in the regions south of the River. It is said that only a dozen pounds are produced a year. The princess doesn’t like tea, but she knows that Third Young Madam loves it. So she delivered them all. Though it's
Qin Yunuan was born with fine features, which made her easy to gain others' trust. In addition, her faint smile and words that were as gentle as spring winds led the draper's manager to be more rampant."Humph! I don't care about your family background. Small as this draper is, it belongs to the Prince Ning's Mansion. Madam, you won't want to offend the Prince Ning's Mansion, will you?"Qin Yunuan nodded and gave a hint to Maner with a glance. Then Maner raised her head and exclaimed, "Open your eye wide! This is the Third Young Madam who was married to Prince Ning's Mansion recently. Princess Ning already arranged her to take charge of the three shops. That is to say....""That is to say," Qin Yunuan completed Maner's words, "Manager, I won't be afraid of offending Prince Ning's Mansion."Finding the manager still suspicious, Maner took out the token of Prince Ning's Mansion and put it right in front of the manager's eyes so that
Seeing that Qin Yunuan kept emotionless, Manager Qian thought that she didn't believe him. He continued with more confidence, "Third Young Madam, please believe me. There are letters that Grand Young Madam wrote to me in private at my house. Third Young Madam, if you allow me to stay, I will give them to you. From now on, I will be your man, doing whatever you want.""I don't want anyone who is useless," Qin Yunuan said coldly, "Pack your things and leave the draper as soon as possible. Oh, you'd better hurry. If my sister-in-law knows that you've told me her secret, the daughter of a concubine in Prince Gaoyang's Mansion as she is, she is totally able to punish a powerless common person like you.""Third Young Madam, I...," Manager Qian prepared to catch Qin Yunuan's dress impertinently, but he was stopped by Leng Shuang, who leaned her body.Qin Yunuan glanced at Manager Qian coldly across Leng Shuang and left determinedly. Outside, the three
Having spent years visiting and learning martial arts from various martial factions, Leng Shuang was used to giving either straightforward or no comments on things. Seeing that Qin Yunuan was in a trance, she said at the sight of Maner's back, "She looks good. No wonder my brother cares about her so much."Before Leng Shuang, Leng Wu, her brother, was the one to protect Qin Yunuan closely. Thus, it was understandable that Leng Wu became closer to Maner. But what Leng Shuang said revealed that Leng Wu seemingly had a crush on Maner a long time ago."Your brother...?" Qin Yunuan drawled deliberately while leisurely having the tasty green bean soup."My brother?" Leng Shuang seldom said such a long sentence. "Although my brother merely works as General Leng's bodyguard, he has an official title, sixth-rank Armed Guard. Given this, he may be qualified to chase after your servant girl, right?"With a puff, Qin Yunuan swallowed the green
Everybody present seemed to understand the words clearly."Yunuan, what's your opinion?" Princess Ning distracted her eyes on Qin Yunuan.Qin Yunuan pondered for a while and said lowly, "Since there is a problem, an investigation is needed definitely."Princess Ning nodded satisfyingly, and then said to Concubine Tang, "What's your opinion, sister?"Concubine Tang looked a little bit embarrassed and said reverently, "Sister, you are the hostess of the family, and you have the final say. I dare not have any objection.""That's good." Princess Ning smiled lightly and muttered, "Why is Changxi so late?"And then Qingzhu came back and reported that the Third Young Master just came back but immediately was summoned by the people dispatched by Emperor to the Imperial Palace. It seemed that he could not have a meal with Princess Ning.Just in a flash, Princess Ning expressed a little of dissatisfacti
Fortunately, Sun Miaoyang was in Prince Ning's Mansion. Unfortunately, Su Chenghai, the disciple of Doctor Sun, was suffering from poisoning at the same time. So when all the people in the Royal City and all the civilians of Qi were cheering for eradicating the evil, there were two dying people in Prince Ning's Mansion.The emperor of Qi re-ascended the throne with few concubines and descendants, so naturally, he valued Leng Changxi, his nephew, so much. He sent him countless precious tonics, and he even accompanied the Queen Mother to visit Leng Changxi after a busy day of political affairs many times. But it was a pity that Leng Changxi still didn't get any better. Qin Yunuan took care of him day and night, losing so much weight.At that time, Leng Changxi and Shi Ruisheng seemed to be vying with each other. There was only one blade of life-saving grass, but there were two people who needed it. Logically speaking, Sun Miaoyang should have given the life-s
All the people fixed their eyes on this little kid who seemed to be only three years old. The child looked extremely beautiful with big watery eyes and fair skin. He was so cute.Followed by the little child was a middle-aged man who looked strong and vigorous but was plainly dressed. People with good ears could still remember that the middle-aged man just called the little child young master. It seemed that the child should be from some noble family.Since his story was interrupted by such a little kid, the storyteller was so angry. He started narrating this story a long time ago, and everyone loved the story very much. But at this time, he was provoked by a little kid!"You kid, you know what? You weren't even born when the Royal City was chaotic.""Anyway, I know that General Leng and his wife are not dead." The kid looked unconvinced with a pout, refuting the storyteller."Hey, you kid. Do you know how many tons of
The burning of the city was the cruelest. In addition, it was the Royal City with a prosperous business and a large population. If Sima Ray was determined to have a life-or-death struggle, the people of Qi would suffer.The emperor of Qi looked at his unfilial son in front of him, feeling so furious. He pointed at Leng Changxi and said, "Get me the head of my rebellious son. I will spill his blood in front of the ancestor temple. I'll let all the ancestors see that there is such a rebel in our Sima Family."Sima Ray raised his head and his eyebrows slightly, looking so indifferent. It seemed that a bad reputation didn't matter to him at all, "I don't care at all. Besides, you never regarded me as a member of the Sima Family when I was growing up, right? You've always been ashamed of my mother. You felt it a shame to rape a maid and make her pregnant when you were young, so you never treated me kindly. I am just dispensable to you.""What nonsen
With his hands tied up behind his back, Leng Changxi remained so calm that people couldn't help bearing scruples. He looked up at Sima Ray and said, "You can kill your friends, brothers and soldiers at will. But I can't. I care for my men."When Sima Ray didn't figure out what he meant, Shi Ruisheng suddenly took out a sword that was tied to his waist. He wielded the sword to cut off the rope that tied Leng Changxi, and the latter was free at once."General, take it." Leng Changxi didn't take any weapon with him. And right because of this, Sima Ray wasn't fully on the alert. But at this time, Zhuge Qingtian shouted and directly threw the black-iron spear at him. Zhuge Qingtian had very strong arms so that the spear directly stabbed into the battlement after flying several hundred meters."Shi Ruisheng, how dare you disobey me?" Sima Ray always thought Shi Ruisheng was his loyal pawn. But unexpectedly, he should betray him at this crucial time.
Sima Ray had occupied Yu Haitang's body at the moment. However, Yu Haitang's appearance began to change because Sima Ray used the body to practice martial arts day and night. After a long time, he looked no different from Sima Ray's original appearance at a glance.Seeing Yu Haitang's shocking change, Qin Yunuan thought that the people around Yu Haitang might have noticed something. However, they all agreed to say nothing. To keep silent was the key to survive beside Sima Ray.Now Marshal Yu had already been a young man who looked exactly like Sima Ray without the name of Prince Ray."Leng Changxi, there are smoke bombs in four colors in my hands, red, yellow, blue, and green. They are responding to the codes of the people watching bonfires in the four corners of the Royal City respectively. Red is the east. Yellow is the west. Blue is the south. Green is the north. As soon as I let go of the smoke bombs, someone over there will immediately lea
"You want evidence?" Qin Yunuan raised her tone. She was considered a fool. Qin Yunuan suddenly reached out to grab Shi Ruisheng's collar. She was ready to see what's inside it."What are you doing?" Shi Ruisheng's face turned red. He covered his clothes with mild strength."What are you thinking?" Qin Yunuan stared at Shi Ruisheng. She grabbed Shi Ruisheng's collar, revealing three moles, which had a triangle shape besides his collarbone. "Yes, I remember, the elder male cousin Su has it. You were him, this is right, but," Qin Yunuan looked at Shi Ruisheng, and went up to drag his sleeve."Yunuan, what the hell are you doing?"Shi Ruisheng was shy about Qin Yunuan's bold behavior. Besides, he treated her well all these years."See," Qin Yunuan pointed at the thin black line on Shi Ruisheng's arm, "This is the poison I used to suffer. The origin of it was the Tamuer Village and the white poplar forest outside it, which
"You…" Qin Yunuan slightly opened her mouth, looking at Shi Ruisheng, who had a completely different appearance from Leng Changxi. She remembered that her cousin Su Chenghai did look familiar with Leng Changxi. However, Shi Ruisheng's temperament was quite another. The sense of Confucian scholar hid behind his expressions.Shi Ruisheng's words were doting. He seemed to learn from Leng Changxi to act in a mild and indifferent way."What's wrong? When you were a little girl, you wouldn't be like that. You used to talk a lot, but now…mature a little more, words little less." Shi Ruisheng said it naturally with the feeling of a brother. Qin Yunuan disdained him."That's because I have nothing to say to you now." She finished her words and left the tent. Shi Ruisheng wanted to chase her but was stopped by Leng Changxi, "Just let her go. Calm down, and she will be fine."Qin Yunuan kept walking. Along the way, she couldn't help but look
Qin Yunuan read the two documents in her hands. After comparing back and forth, she suddenly smiled and looked at Leng Changxi. It seemed that the two people could understand each other without speaking.In the morning half a month later, the mist dissipated gradually. The profile of the city wall, which was getting clearer little by little from afar, was outlined by the morning sun with a golden rim. The Royal City in the distance was the largest power center of Qi. Gold worshippers and desperate gamblers gathered here, crowding in the tiny space and thinking that they could gain fame and fortune. However, they all became the playthings of power."The world is supposed to be governed by the strong authority," a man in silver armor stood in the golden morning light on a high mountain from afar. The black iron spear in his hand glowed with cold murderous intent. The solemn atmosphere made people breathe cautiously."General Leng, it is me who he
Seeing that Heiying's face gradually become pale, showing a kind of dying helplessness, Qin Yunuan opened his eyelid and checked carefully. Leng Shuang seemed to be a little flustered."Madam, I..." Leng Shuang took a step closer."It's none of your business," Qin Yunuan turned her face to comfort Leng Shuang, "Besides, even if you don't kill him, Sima Ray will kill him. Even if he isn't killed by Sima Ray, he will be punished by me. How can he leave safe and sound after bullying my people?"Leng Changxi glanced at Heiying and ordered his servant, "Take him back." After saying this, he stretched his hand and pulled Qin Yunuan directly onto the horse. When he passed Tuoba Wuyu, he nodded with concern, "Thank you for your hard work."Qin Yunuan sat behind Leng Changxi. Putting her arms around the edge of Leng Changxi's armor, she lowered her head slightly, "It's so surprising that...""Nothing is surprising," Leng Changx
