Xue Mingyue directly rejected his attempt to hand over his salary.

The moment she heard about his promotion, she understood that the Lin family's rebellion was probably about to be settled. Otherwise, His Majesty would not have thought about rewarding him based on his merits, so he still appointed a Jinwu Guardsman.

Until now, there has been no sound at all.

Xue Mingyue couldn't figure out how His Majesty would deal with the Lin family and their accomplices in the end. But rebellion is a big deal. It is conceivable that after returning to Yongji, the Dongshi execution ground will be filled with blood again.

She couldn't help but take another look at Xie Lang.

She was certain that this life was completely different from the previous life, but Xie Lang still gained His Majesty's trust and importance in the Autumn Hunting Paddock. This was the same again, and they were still walking along the trajectory of the future.

Can the future trajectory really be changed?

Will she eventually die of the epidemic outside Suzhou City?

Xue Mingyue's heart slowly sank.

Just as she was thinking, Xie Lang suddenly raised his left hand and flicked her forehead with his fingers, his tone showing a hint of exaggeration.

"What are you thinking about?"

"You are not willing to give me even two taels of silver, are you? It doesn't matter if you don't give it. If I need money in the future, I will ask Xijiang to go back to my hometown to pay you. I promise not to squander it again."

Xue Mingyue covered her forehead: "..."

Xue Mingyue suppressed the complicated thoughts in her heart and couldn't help but glare at him. She said with a respectful expression on her face: "I don't want your salary. You can spend it on whatever you want, so that no one will call me a poisonous woman again."

"Whoever dares to say that to you, I will teach him a lesson."

Xie Lang had a smile on his face, which sounded like a joke, but his dark eyes were full of seriousness.

No one would doubt his protective intentions.

Lidong nodded repeatedly when he heard this, and looked at Xue Mingyue eagerly: Yes, yes, Lord Marquis would really do this. The bad face of the Ninth Princess and the others so far is his handiwork!

Whenever their condition improved after taking the medicine, he would give them medicine again.

The cycle goes back and forth, over and over again.

In short, the Marquis must be more vengeful than the Madam!

It was a pity that no one could understand Lidong's eyes, and Xue Mingyue only thought that Xie Lang was just talking. After all, he had always just said that he would not let others bully her, but in fact it was of no use at all.

However, Xue Mingyue remembered something more important.

She narrowed her eyes slightly and hinted: "I don't have anything else to do here, so I don't need to waste Mr. Hou's time. If Mr. Hou is busy with something, he can leave first."

Xie Lang raised his eyebrows: "Who said I have something to be busy with?"

He saw through what she was thinking at a glance, smiled and reached out to pinch her soft cheek, and leaned forward: "The Lin family's affairs have been almost investigated. Mr. Lian specially let me come back to see you, just because he was afraid that you would treat me badly. have opinions."

How could she have any objection?

She wished he couldn't get home all day long!

Xue Mingyue tilted her head back, blinked and said, "The Marquis is working for His Majesty, so naturally I won't have any objections..."

"You still said you have no objection. Listen to what you are calling me?"

"We agreed to change our names last time."

Xie Lang reminded him with a serious face.

His tone sounded a bit resentful. He was very dissatisfied with the word "hou" and "ye" now. It sounded really unfamiliar. He had to make her change this habit.

"..." Xue Mingyue thought, that's it?

How come this person never noticed the point of her words? What she wanted to say was clearly His Majesty!

She couldn't help but corrected: "I'm just used to shouting. It's not that I have any objection to you. I don't want to delay your business, but it's better for you to stay with His Majesty now."

Before, when he was still rushing to interrogate the relevant people, countless people tried hard on her side, trying to take the opportunity to use a back door for relatives/friends.

Now that he is back, those people will definitely come back.

Xie Lang was very happy when he heard this.

His black eyes were full of smiles, and there was a bit of a proud smile on the corners of his eyebrows. His eyelashes were slightly curved, and he rubbed her head and said: "I knew you were caring about me, but don't worry, No one will come to your door again.”

"Actually, they should go to His Majesty now."

Because when the matter is settled, it means that others should also know the result.

Xie Lang shook his head and said: "The famous person in front of your Majesty is not me. The reason why they came to you or me before was just to make me show mercy during the interrogation."

Hearing what he said, Xue Mingyue subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

Then she suddenly realized, no, she said this because she didn’t want to sleep with him!

At this moment, Xie Lang's profound voice rang out:

"It's getting late now, it's time for us to wash up and go to bed."

"!"

...

Xue Mingyue was still a little uncomfortable when she lay on the bed.

The conditions of the camp were limited, so she simply wiped herself down and got on the bed. When she saw the small bed that Xie Lang had prepared for herself, which was only for one person, her eyelashes seemed to be burned.

Since her rebirth, she and Xie Lang had only stayed in the same room to rest and sleep.

Not to mention such a serious scene.

Just as she was thinking wildly, the curtain of the tent was opened, and a tall figure walked in from the outside. His figure was reflected on the screen. He approached slowly, then walked around the screen to the bed.

Xie Lang's whole body was still wet with moisture, and he smiled and said, "I'm back."

The deep and magnetic voice sounded particularly nice in the silent tent.

He was only wearing a thin black undershirt, and his black hair was tied up loosely. A few strands of broken hair on his forehead were wet with water and fell on his temples. His eyebrows looked particularly attractive in the dim candlelight.

...like a concubine who came to sleep with her, Xue Mingyue thought to herself.

Xue Mingyue's eyes paused for a few breaths on his slightly open collar. When she saw his cold white skin, she felt inexplicably dry, and then she quickly looked away hastily.

The medical book in his hand seemed to be a life-saving straw.

She silently recited "Sex is Emptiness" several times in her mind, and said as calmly as possible: "Oh, I'm going to read for a while. Your bed is over there. If you're sleepy, you can go to sleep first."

Xue Mingyue herself didn't realize that her voice was a little tight.

Anyone could hear her nervousness.

As for Xie Lang... He couldn't help but chuckle. He leaned down gently and came closer to her eyes. His dark pupils met her amber-like light eyes, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

"What if I want to sleep here?"

Xue Mingyue: "!?"

Xie Lang said matter-of-factly: "That bed is small and hard. I finally got some rest after so many days of busy work. I really want to rest on this bed covered with several layers of soft quilts. Is that okay?" "

Of course, of course, no, okay!

Xue Mingyue's eyes widened instantly, and her first reaction was to firmly reject him.

But when she saw the dark circles in his eyes, she hesitated inexplicably.

Seeing this, Xie Lang's smile became even brighter.

He asked again: "Is it okay?"
