Ye Yunzi raised her eyebrows and said, wow, the world of the ancients was also quite open, with male-male pairings, so fresh!

Without saying anything, Lian Xiangzi picked up the dagger and went to Bu Dan. Suonan was quick-witted and grabbed Lian Xiangzi, shaking his head: "Don't let your hands get dirty again, I'll take care of it!"

As soon as the matter was settled, Shen Siyan returned to the camp, strode onto the training platform, stood like a mountain, and looked down at the huge sea of ​​soldiers.

"Now, Kandan and the border town are back in our arms, but they need protectors. Warriors, you are the backbone of the country. Who is willing to stay and stand guard for our homeland and defend this land? Please stand up."

Several old generals staggered out and looked at Shen Siyan, their eyes full of nostalgia for the past Bei Mingguang, tears welling up in their eyes.

"Marshal, we are willing to defend this territory. We have followed General Shen here for decades, and we are worried about leaving it to others. We have no ties, no wives or children, and we only hope to stay here and protect our homeland!"

Shen Siyan looked at these veterans and nodded solemnly: "Okay! Biancheng, Bianying and Kandan are now handed over to you. Report to the court in detail every three months. If you have any difficulties, just let them come to me. I will do my best to support you!"

After that, Shen Siyan gave a solemn order to the soldiers: "All soldiers, listen up, break camp immediately and prepare to return victoriously!"

Shen Siyan suddenly turned around and pulled Luo Yi back to the camp. Luo Yi looked at the silent Shen Siyan and hugged him tightly: "Grandpa Shen Siyan, the dead are gone. This is the land your father defended with his life. You fought for it with your life, and that's enough. He will be proud of you in his grave."

Shen Siyan looked down at Luo Yi, and a smile suddenly appeared on his lips: "Little clever ghost, have you got into my heart? How come you know everything I'm thinking?"

Ye Yunzi poked Shen Siyan's face lightly and said with a smile, "It's clearly written on your face, how could you not know?" The two looked at each other and smiled.

The next morning, just as the sky was getting light, the camp was already busy.

The soldiers were packing their bags in an orderly manner, preparing to embark on their journey home. Shen Siyan, dressed in battle robes, stood in the middle of the camp with a sharp gaze, scanning every corner.

Ye Yunzi was packing her things. She was wearing a light green dress, which fluttered gently in the wind, like a touch of fresh green in spring. There was a hint of playfulness between her eyebrows and a faint smile on the corners of her mouth.

Shen Siyan walked up to Ye Yunzi in armor and asked softly, "Yunzi, what are your plans for returning to the court this time?"

Ye Yunzi raised her head and said, "After returning to the court, I will naturally find an opportunity to see the prosperity of this palace."

As the sun gradually rose, the soldiers in the camp were ready to go.

Shen Siyan mounted his warhorse and shouted, "All soldiers, march out!"

The soldiers responded in unison, with a mighty roar, like thunder. Shen Siyan and Ye Yunzi walked side by side, the sound of horse hooves echoing in the morning air, carrying a sense of heroism and ambition.

During the journey, Shen Siyan talked with Ye Yunzi from time to time.

After several days of traveling, Shen Siyan and Ye Yunzi finally arrived in the capital. To celebrate their triumphant return, the emperor specially arranged a grand banquet in the palace.

At the banquet, civil and military officials gathered together and the atmosphere was very lively.

Shen Siyan and Ye Yunzi sat on the left and right sides of the emperor, becoming the focus of everyone's attention.

The emperor raised his glass and said loudly: "General Shen, you have returned victoriously this time and have made great contributions to the country. I am here to raise my glass to congratulate you."

Shen Siyan and Ye Yunzi stood up and raised their glasses in return: "Your Majesty, you are too kind. We are just doing our duty."

At the banquet, everyone was toasting and laughing.

The banquet did not end until late at night.

The next day, Shen Yuming came to Ye Yunzi's yard and took her to the lake.

In the pavilion, Shen Yuming stood quietly, the breeze blowing gently on his long gown. He had a handsome face, and just by gazing into the distance, he looked like a fairy from a painting descending to the mortal world, detached from the world. His eyes were deep, and there seemed to be a myriad of thoughts in his dark eyes. No one could match his wisdom and ambition.

Ye Yunzi stared at his back. When they met again, all the memories of her past life came flooding back to her. She clenched her fists secretly, and her eyes were cold.

Shen Yuming seemed to sense something, turned around and chuckled, "Yun Zi."

"Shen Yuming." Ye Yunzi responded coldly. Her attitude was distant and she gave off an aura that kept people at a distance.

Shen Yuming's body stiffened slightly, but he still had a smile on his face. He said in a gentle voice: "Yunzi, I understand that you are angry. I have already explained what happened last time. The encounter with Jiaojiao was purely a coincidence. There is nothing else..."

"If you feel that my words were inappropriate, I would like to apologize here."

Shen Yuming lowered his eyelids slightly, and there seemed to be a thousand kinds of pain in his eyes. If he didn't know the person well, he might really be fooled by this disguise.

Ye Yunzi signaled her maid Zhilan to pay attention to her surroundings, and she slowly walked forward.

She stood in front of Shen Yuming, her eyes firm and she smiled sweetly, "Shen Yuming, why do you need to apologize? Besides, you are not at fault."

"Why did you invite me here today?"

Ye Yunzi spoke firmly and drew a clear line in indifference.

Shen Yuming looked at Ye Yunzi's coldness with confusion in his eyes. He believed that he was innocent. They hadn't seen each other for a while and their feelings should have deepened. How could it turn out like this?

Yes, it must have been that misunderstanding.

He was seen with Jiaojiao, so he became jealous.

Thinking of this, Shen Yuming took out a brocade bag from his sleeve and handed it to Ye Yunzi: "This is what I got in Xuzhou. I should have given it to you in time, but I was unable to visit the Ye Mansion..."

Ye Yunzi watched the situation quietly without reaching out to take it.

She knew Shen Yuming very well, and he definitely did not choose the hairpin himself, but must have sent someone to bring it in a hurry.

Seeing that Ye Yunzi was indifferent, Shen Yuming coughed awkwardly, opened the bag and took out the hairpin.

"When I first saw this hairpin, I thought of you. It suits you very well..."

After he finished speaking, he took a step closer, shortening the distance between them, and lowered his head to look at Ye Yunzi affectionately.

Ye Yunzi faced him who was so close to her, they were almost leaning against each other and could hear each other's breathing.

In her previous life, she loved him as her life and gave him everything just to make him smile.

And how did he treat her?

He had no love in his heart and only used Madam Ye for her power. He even treated her as a plaything and allowed her to be bullied. In the end, he cruelly murdered Madam Ye and displayed her head to the public!

How dare he! Such a ruthless person, with such a dark and hard heart, could do such a cruel thing.

Ye Yunzi stood there in a daze, breathing rapidly, her fists clenched. Suppressing her hatred had exhausted her strength, and the taste of blood filled the air on her tongue.

Shen Yuming! Shen Yuming!

Shen Yuming smiled, not noticing the hatred in Ye Yunzi's eyes, and raised his hand to gently insert the hairpin into her hair.
