Li Yuanqiao's face was very dark. Li Huaiying and Zhu Anhe and his wife who were walking in front of him did not notice that his fists were clenched tightly.

Zhu Anhe pulled Li Huaiying's sleeve and asked, "Lao Ying, did you know this a long time ago?"

"Know what? I don't know."

"Oh, you still want to lie to me. Come on, tell me now."

Li Huaiying touched his nose and smiled at his wife: "As soon as he climbed over the wall, the guard came to report to me, saying that someone climbed over the wall and entered the princess's house in the middle of the night."

"You know our daughter's martial arts skills. Who can get away with it?"

"If a criminal climbed over the wall in the middle of the night, he would be caught by my daughter before he even landed on the ground."

"I've been standing outside Qinglan Courtyard for quite a while, and there has been no sound. You don't need to guess who it is."

Zhu Anhe said, "But I heard that the Ninth Prince of Daliang is very skilled in martial arts. If he wants to climb over the wall and come in, can the guards in our mansion find him so easily?"

Li Huaiying took his wife's shoulder and said, "He deliberately alarmed the guards. Otherwise, why would I stand at the gate of Qinglan Courtyard for so long?"

Li Yuanqiao pouted in the back, each of them had eight hundred schemes in mind.

"Okay, you go back and rest first. I'll go make some midnight snacks." Zhu Anhe pushed her husband towards the Begonia Courtyard.

Li Shuangwan, who was in the house, secretly glanced out the window and found that the two window gods had already left.

Li Shuangwan turned around, squinted at the man in front of him, and approached him step by step.

Gu Xingyan was forced into a corner, with nowhere to retreat.

Li Shuangwan placed her hands on both sides of his body: "Gu Xingyan, tell me honestly, did you know that my father's guards had discovered you?"

Her eyes swept across the man's face several times: "Or, did you do it on purpose?"

"You deliberately let them find you so that my mother could take my father away and it would be convenient for you to come to Qinglan Court to find me in the future?"

Gu Xingyan's eyes were filled with an irrepressible smile.

Li Shuangwan chuckled: "Gu Xingyan, you can do it."

"Please, father-in-law, provide convenience for me in the future."

As he said that, he turned around and pushed Li Shuangwan against the wall, then held the girl in front of him in his arms and pecked her red lips.

Li Shuangwan glared at him unhappily.

Gu Xingyan held the girl in his arms, rested his chin on the top of her head, and smiled softly.

Li Shuangwan sighed in his heart, wondering if his parents knew that their daughter was sold off by them.

"It's getting late, you should go back."

"My aunt asked me to have a midnight snack before leaving."

"No, the kitchen closed early."

"Yan Yan, you don't feel sorry for me. I'm hungry. My aunt told me to eat. I have to eat before I leave in the morning."

"Gu Xingyan, do the soldiers of the Canglang Army know that you are actually a rogue?"

"I'm the head coach, they don't dare to know."

Ah!

Gu Xingyan actually waited for the midnight snack, and when he came out after eating, the moon was already at its highest point in the sky.

With a tiptoe, he jumped over the wall which was more than ten feet high, and as he landed steadily, a fist hit him hard in the face.

Gu Xingyan was knocked back two steps by the punch.

Two streams of blood immediately came out of his nostrils.

"Ninth Brother!"

"Ninth Brother!"

Shu Wenbo and Liang Tianyou stepped forward together and stood in front of Gu Xingyan.

Gu Xingyan pushed the two men away and was punched in the face by them again.

The punch hit Gu Xingyan's right shoulder blade.

In the battle at Sun Moon Mountain two months ago, he protected Li Shuangwan under his body and was slashed by Ava's sharp blade. The wound has not fully healed yet.

The punch made Gu Xingyan's body stagger twice. It was very painful. The wound seemed to be split open. His brows were deeply furrowed and cold sweat even seeped out of his forehead.

"Brother, what are you doing!" Li Shuangwan heard the voice and jumped over the wall, standing between Li Yuanqiao and Gu Xingyan.

"Sister, get out of the way! If Gu Xingyan dares to bully you, I will beat him until his parents don't recognize him anymore."

"Brother, Xingyan is injured. He was stabbed by Ava in the Sun and Moon Mountain while trying to save me. The wound is very deep. If he hadn't given me the golden soft armor to protect me, his own back would have been exposed to the enemy's knife, and your sister would have died long ago!"

Li Yuanqiao's fist softened as he was about to charge forward: "You were doing that to help him. You don't have to go to Rangcheng."

Li Shuangwan was too lazy to say more to him. He turned around and looked at Gu Xingyan. He took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood off his face bit by bit.

"Why did you just let him hit you? Can't you just dodge?" Li Shuangwan felt both distressed and angry.

Gu Xingyan took two breaths, and the pain of the wound gradually eased. He held Li Shuangwan's hand and chuckled, "I'm fine. You go back first. There are a lot of mosquitoes outside. If they bite you, you will get a swollen body. Let me have a good talk with your brother."

"Xingyan..." Li Shuangwan was a little worried.

"It's okay, you can go back. I knew he was waiting outside when I just walked out of your room."

"Then you still let him beat you?"

Gu Xingyan placed his fingertips on Li Shuangwan's furrowed brows, smoothing them out bit by bit.

"To be honest, the two punches he gave me today hurt, but I'm very happy. It shows that my brother really loves you and protects you. Okay, go back. It doesn't hurt anymore."

Li Shuangwan pursed her lips, nodded, and turned to Li Yuanqiao and said, "Brother, stop hitting me, and talk nicely."

Li Yuanqiao did not respond, he heard the conversation between the two.

Li Shuangwan returned to his room.

Gu Xingyan nodded to Shu Wenbo and Liang Tianyou. The two looked at him worriedly and walked away.

Gu Xingyan moved his shoulder and it still hurt a little, but it was much better now. The punch just now was really hard.

A smile appeared on his face: "Brother-in-law didn't use his full strength in those two punches."

Li Yuanqiao snorted coldly: "If I use all my strength, do you still want to stand here?"

Gu Xingyan chuckled: "It shows that my elder brother-in-law still has sympathy for me, his brother-in-law."

"You still dare to laugh! Gu Xingyan, don't think that I won't beat you just because you are the Ninth Prince of Daliang. Although you have done a favor to my sister, it does not mean that you can bully her at will. You have to ask my fist first."

Li Yuanqiao clenched his fists until they creaked.

Gu Xingyan looked up at the sky. The moon was very round and bright today.

The silver moonlight passed through the branches, cut into pieces of time, and fell at my feet.

He said, "General Li, Yanyan and I were in love but we were in harmony. We never crossed the line. I love her, even more than my own life. How could I let her have sex with me without a matchmaker? You not only look down on me, but also your own sister."

Li Yuanqiao was stunned. He didn't expect Gu Xingyan to say this. The anger in his heart slowly dissipated.

"You were fighting Northern Qi in the northwest, and that was an open fight with real weapons. But Yanyan was not like that."
