Back at Mo Yuxuan, Shen Wan took a bath and just went to bed. When she woke up, it was already dinner time.

He took a nap late and didn't feel sleepy at all when it was time to go to bed, and Xie Jingyan didn't come back from the study.

Shen Wan was reading while waiting for him. She looked at the omissions several times. When Yinshuang saw it, she said, "Do you want me to go and invite the prince?"

Shen Wan shook his head, "No need."

It’s not that you don’t have to go and invite her, it’s that you don’t have to go to Yinshuang.

Shen Wan put down the book and stood up.

In the study, Xie Jingyan was reading the military book. When he heard Shen Wan's footsteps, he looked up and saw Shen Wan walking in. He asked, "Why are you here?"

Shen Wan stepped forward and said, "It's too late. Aren't you going to sleep?"

It's all because of the bad habits this bastard gave her.

She used to sleep well alone, but now she can't fall asleep without being held. She has to find a way to change this bad habit.

Xie Jingyan said, "There are still the last few pages of the military book. After reading it, I will go to sleep."

Shen Jing was leaving Beijing to train the iron cavalry and left a lot of military books for him. He was fascinated by them and forgot about the time.

Anyway, Shen Wan couldn't understand something as boring as The Art of War. His own father and eldest brother could read it all day and night, and now there was another Xie Jingyan.

Shen Wan was about to go back to the house without interrupting his study of military art, but when she turned around, her hand was grabbed by Xie Jingyan, "Stay with me for a while."

Shen Wan did not refuse, but was a little worried, "Wouldn't it prevent you from reading the military book if I stay?"

There is no harm in reading more books, even though Shen Wan always felt that no matter how many military books Xie Jingyan read, it would be useless.

Xie Jingyan chuckled. Not only did he not let go of Shen Wan's hand, he also used a little force to bring Shen Wan into his arms, "This doesn't hinder it."

Shen Wan, "..."

Shen Wan struggled, "Leading troops to fight is a matter of human life. You should watch carefully."

Xie Jingyan agreed, "Then sit quietly and don't move around."

Shen Wan, "..."

So irritating.

If he asked her not to move, then he should just let her go and let her sit aside or even go back to the house. If she had known that he was reading military documents, she would not have come. She would have thought that he was busy with something important.

Feeling that a certain man was breathing heavily, Shen Wan didn't dare to move. However, Xie Jingyan only had the last two pages left, but he read too slowly, and she had finished reading them all.

Well, Shen Wan could understand every word, but when put together, it felt like reading a bible. However, she could understand two sentences of her father's annotations, but only two sentences.

After waiting for a long time, Shen Wan was almost numb from waiting. Xie Jingyan finally closed the book of war. Shen Wan breathed lightly and said, "Have you finished reading?"

Xie Jingyan put down the military book and Shen Wan said, "Then go back to the house."

She was about to stand up, but just now Xie Jingyan's hand holding the book hugged her waist and whispered in her ear, "Don't go back to the house."

Shen Wan looked at him, and a certain man bit her round earlobe and said in a hoarse voice, "Let's just stay in the study tonight, okay?"

Shen Wan's mind flashed back to what he had done in the study and on this table after she and Xie Jingyan settled their affair, and her face immediately burned with anger. She didn't want to do it again.

Shen Wan wanted to shake her head and refuse, but the bastard asked her, but did not give her a chance to refuse. He blocked her words before she could say anything.

I don't know when I was hugged and sat on the table.

It's no wonder this bastard doesn't get angry every few days.

This is the desk!

When he was seriously reading and writing, he wanted to...

I don’t believe that he doesn’t get distracted while reading and doesn’t have wild thoughts.

Shen Wan was so weak from being kissed by him that she couldn't resist, her clothes were thin, and his hands moved around like a stove. Just when her waistband was torn apart——

Bang bang bang!

There was a sudden knock on the window.

The sudden sound frightened Shen Wan.

Xie Jingyan was used to the sudden knocking on the window by secret guards, so he was much calmer than Shen Wan, but when his good things were interrupted, he looked very unhappy.

The secret guard didn't know that he had disturbed a certain master's affairs. When no one answered, he shouted, "Master?"

Chen Yu stayed in the tree and covered his eyes. He had just wanted to stop the secret guard when he came to the study. However, after staying in the same position for a long time in the tree, his legs were a little numb and his reaction was sluggish. The secret guard came to the window. , knocking on the window loudly.

I'm always on fire, bad things happen to me, I stand on horseback until my legs cramp.

In the study, Shen Wan pushed Xie Jingyan away and quickly got off the desk. Instead of going out, she went behind the screen.

Xie Jingyan said with a dark face, "Come in."

He wanted to know if there was anything at night that he had to report to him.

The secret guard pushed open the window and jumped in.

The secret guard had just realized that the princess was also in the study, but the window was knocked and he didn't dare to run away.

When he went in and saw a certain man with an unhappy expression on his face, the secret guard's heart trembled, and then he calmed himself down.

Xie Jingyan asked, "What do you want to report?"

The secret guard hurriedly said, "Just now, Young Master Tang and Prince Xuanping patrolled near the palace at night. They climbed over the wall and came in to let their subordinates convey a message to the prince. When they patrolled Mrs. Yan's mansion just now, they smelled burning paper money inside. I smelled it, so I went in and took a look. Someone was burning paper inside..."

Mrs. Yan's mansion is Concubine Chen's natal family and Xie Jingyan's maternal ancestor's family.

After something happened to Concubine Chen, everyone in the Yan family was executed and no one was left alive.

That's why Tang Ze and Lu Cheng found it strange that someone was burning paper at Mrs. Yan's house at night.

Mrs. Yan's Mansion was Xie Jingyan's maternal grandfather's home. Tang Ze and Lu Cheng felt that it was necessary to let Xie Jingyan know about this matter, so they came in while passing by Prince Ling's Mansion. They all thought that Xie Jingyan had fallen asleep, so they told him about this matter. Tell the secret guard and let the secret guard convey it.

The secret guard also thought Xie Jingyan was asleep, but when he came to Mo Yuxuan and saw that the study was still light, he came over and knocked on the window.

Thinking of the Yan Mansion, his grandfather, uncle, cousins, and others, Xie Jingyan felt his heart hurt like a needle pricking him. He murmured, "Why would someone burn paper there?"

The secret guard said, "This incident also frightened the young master Tang and Prince Xuanping. They bravely climbed over the wall and went in. Someone was indeed burning paper, and the fire was not extinguished. The person who burned the paper must have discovered that they went in and hid... …”

Behind the screen, Shen Wan had already tied her waist, and she also felt strange.

After Concubine Chen's accident, everyone in Mrs. Yan's house, including the infant, was not spared. At that time, the emperor was furious and demoted Xie Jingyan to guard the imperial mausoleum. None of the civil and military officials dared to complain to Mrs. Yan's house. How could someone secretly go to Yan Mansion to burn paper if they don't have any feelings?

Moreover, the memorial day for Concubine Chen and everyone in the Yan family would still be a few days away, so it would be early to burn paper at this time.

Across the screen, Shen Wan saw Xie Jingyan standing up, looked over to her, and said to her, "Let me go take a look."

Yan Mansion has been confiscated for six or seven years, and it must be overgrown with weeds. If you go there late at night, you won't be able to see much.

Shen Wan wanted to persuade Xie Jingyan to go there during the day tomorrow.

But when she walked out from behind the screen, Xie Jingyan was no longer in the study.

There was only a crescent moon left outside the window.
