Madam General, please run slower.

Qianwu girls are married at the age of fifteen and thirteen or fourteen. If I remember correctly, this little fool is thirteen this year, which is indeed the age for marriage, but there is a seven-year age difference between them.

Although there were many people around him who were more than ten years younger than his wife and concubines, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable when he thought that this person was just born when he started practicing sword.

Yu Xun closed his eyes and refused to look at Li, believing that out of sight, out of mind.

"General, you know that if this matter is not resolved in time, it will endanger your life." Li said with a teasing tone, "Yu, Gong, Gong?"

Yu Xun: …

Why did he let Wei Yi take him into the palace on impulse just now? It was such a sin.

Li's words "Eunuch Yu" almost broke Yu Xungan's defense.

Listening to the gradually deepening breathing of the person opposite him, Li touched Yu Xun's collar with satisfaction, "If we regard this as a transaction, will General Yu not have any psychological burden?"

"What do you want?" Yu Xun's voice was trembling and unusually low.

"Simple, I need to leave the palace for a while."

"How long?" Yu Xun almost choked as he spoke, feeling the small hand lingering on his chest.

"More than a year." Li estimated the time it would take to travel from the capital to southern Xinjiang. It would take several months to go there and back.

"No, it's too long."

"Tsk, forget it if it doesn't work." Li had taken enough advantage, but withdrew his hand with a look of regret on his face.

Yu Xun was almost driven crazy by this man's torture, "Change your request!"

"No more requests, this is the only one for now." Li stroked the teacup on the table and reached out to pour a glass of water.

Seeing Li getting closer and closer, Yu Xun gritted his teeth. When he felt a chill on the side of his face, Yu Xun could no longer hold back and roared: "What on earth do you want to do?!"

"I'm kindly giving you water, what's your attitude?" Li gently stroked Yu Xun's face, confirmed the position of his lips, and then stood on tiptoe to hand him the teacup.

Little did she know that the thirst caused by her actions could not be relieved by a cup of tea.

Yu Xun felt that the more he drank the water, the thirstier he became. His rationality gradually disappeared after several rounds of drinking. "I...I agree."

"Promise what?" Having finally achieved her goal, Li stopped torturing him. The teacup that had just been handed to Yu Xun's mouth suddenly turned around and all the tea went into her own mouth.

This scene undoubtedly became the fuse for Yu Xun's sanity collapse.

"I...I agree to your request."

"The general will not regret it after he wakes up."

"Am I such a person?" Yu Xun's consciousness gradually began to blur. His bound hands twisted unconsciously, and the fiery red spiritual power in his hands loomed, as if it would burn through the ropes and break free in the next second. "Help me, I promise, I promise everything, hurry up..."

"Okay." Li seemed to compromise. He placed one hand on Yu Xun's heart and stroked his neck with the other hand.

It was an extremely ambiguous action at first, but due to the lack of height, the atmosphere was ruined.

"Lower your head!" Li ordered in a low voice, with a little gritted teeth.

Yu Xun indulged in the coldness on his chest that did not belong to him, and lowered his head obediently.

The next moment, Yu Xun felt the coolness coming from his neck and heart, and his consciousness became a little clearer.

Yu Xun lowered his eyes to look at the hand in front of his chest that was surrounded by spiritual power. His mind went blank. This scene seemed to be different from what he had imagined.

The dark spiritual power flowed into his meridians along the girl's palm. Wherever the spiritual power entered his body, it brought a hint of coolness, which easily dissipated the restlessness in his body. The effect of the medicine was gradually dissipating.

It turns out that this is possible! Wasn't it a bit stupid that he just closed his eyes and lowered his head? Fortunately, she couldn't see it.

As Yu Xun regained his senses, his brain started to work again, and he couldn't help but think about Li Gang's request.

What on earth had caused her to leave the palace for a year? Was it related to her bleeding eyes?

But the weight on his chest left Yu Xun no time to think. Looking at the person in his arms with an unbearable look on his face, Yu Xun's heart tightened and he quickly asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Spiritual power, devouring, empathy..." The girl's voice was charming and lingered in Yu Xun's ears intermittently.

Yu Xun swallowed unconsciously and tried his best to ignore the warmth in his arms.

Devour? Empathy? Does that mean she is feeling the same as he just did?

Seeing the person in his arms losing strength and sliding down, Yu Xun quickly used his spiritual power to burn the ropes, pulled the person up, and asked in a low voice: "Can I carry you back to the bed to lie down for a while?"

“No need, just like that, slowly…” Li pulled Yu Xun’s sleeve and slowly adjusted his breathing.

Yu Xun reached out and held the man in his arms, "Will this be better?"

"Ah."

"If I divert my attention, won't it be less uncomfortable?" Yu Xun thought about his recent experience. After all, he was considered an experienced person.

"Ah."

Yu Xun was not a chatty person. After thinking for a long time, he simply talked about his experience tonight. "The Jiang family has been making some small moves these days, so I stayed in the mansion to lure them into action."

"I was careful with all the food I ate. I even asked the secret guards to bring back the food from the restaurant. I didn't expect that woman to be so cruel to herself." When Jiang Wan was mentioned, anger burned in Yu Xun's heart like a raging fire.

Li patted the arm that was around her waist.

Yu Xun calmed down and continued, "She made the medicine into incense, and she was waiting for me in the study wearing the incense-smoked clothes."

Feeling the continuous patting on his arm, Yu Xun thought Li was comforting him, and he held her arm a little tighter.

"After I returned to the study, she took the initiative to talk about how Jiang Qianzhang had forced her in the past few days. After expressing her sincerity to me, she helped me grind ink. By the time I came to my senses, I had already been tricked."

Li was still patting his arm, and Yu Xun finally looked down at her, "What's wrong?"

"Let go, I can't breathe." Li rolled her eyes at him in her heart. She had already reminded him to loosen up, but this man just held her tighter and tighter, almost suffocating her to death.

"Are you...are you okay?" Yu Xun let her go only after he saw that she had really stood firmly. His fingers behind his back unconsciously rubbed their fingertips.

"It's okay." Li had already expected that the empathy would not last long.

Li, who was finally free, took a deep breath and asked, "Then what did you do to him?"

"Who? Jiang Wan? I asked the secret guards to capture him and take him back to the secret guard camp for custody."

"Dark Guard Battalion? You put him in the dungeon? Did you torture him?" Li was a little surprised. After all, he had been her husband for several years. How could he be so cruel? Jiang Wan was probably the first person who gave her husband a love potion and ended up being put in the dungeon by her husband.

"I didn't have the chance to use torture before I entered the palace, and I don't know whether my subordinates will use it after I leave." Yu Xun didn't think there was anything wrong with this.

Li recalled the figure who loved to wear green and felt quite regretful. What a pretty girl, it was a pity that she ended up with Yu Xun.

"Okay, then we just need to report the drugging matter to the emperor." Li had heard earlier that Minister Jiang disliked Jiang Wan, a concubine's daughter. Perhaps this was the reason why Emperor Qu allowed Jiang Wan to enter the general's mansion as a concubine.

Previously, because of those seemingly true rumors, Emperor Qu began to doubt the Jiang family's stance. If he knew that Jiang Qianzhang took advantage of the princess's entry into the palace to instigate a concubine to drug the general, Jiang Qianzhang's position as the Shangshu would probably be over.

"I understand. I will inform the Emperor of this at the morning court tomorrow."

"No, you will not go to court tomorrow morning because you are ill."

"Why?" Yu Xun couldn't understand what she said for a moment.

Li smiled lightly and took a step closer to Yu Xun, "I remember that on the wedding night, someone was busy until almost five o'clock in the morning."

"Do you still remember?!" The blush on Yu Xun's face caused by the medicine had not yet faded away, and was aroused again by her words.

The childish shyness at this moment formed a sharp contrast with his usual stern image. Yu Xun wanted to turn around and escape, but found that his feet seemed to be nailed to the ground. He could only stand there, letting the shyness and panic surge in his heart.
