Chapter 3800 Couple’s Night Talk
Fang Jun felt that he had been wronged. He didn't eat the mutton and made himself smelly...
But after all, Princess Baling took advantage of her and swore to heaven that there would be no physical intimacy. She couldn't say such words, so she could only confuse the situation with Mi Ni in an attempt to get away with it.
"What did your Highness say? My loyalty to Your Highness can be seen from day to day!"
"Haha! What did Changle say?"
"... Changle is different. Changle is a divorced woman who is not yet married but is waiting to be married. This is what you and I want. It is different in nature."
"Fang Er, do you want some face?"
"..."
Fang Jun was speechless, secretly hating who could blame him for his indiscretion. He was caught in every possible way and couldn't argue. All you can do is be ruthless and forcefully attack a bully. As long as a woman conquers him on the bed, she will generally obey his words.
"Oops! Let me go, Fang Er! What crime should I be guilty of for blaspheming the princess?"
"I am guilty!"
"If you don't let go, I will go to the prince and file a complaint against you, saying that you bullied the weak and abused the princess!"
"I deserve to die!"
"...Hmm."
The maids served their master, cleaned him up, changed the bedding, and then left.
Being held in Fang Jun's arms, Princess Gaoyang struggled weakly to no avail, so she could only let it go. She finally regained her composure, squinted her eyes and enjoyed her husband's caress, and cursed in her mouth: "Fang Er, you are guilty of being a thief. You want to hide it!”
Fang Jun smiled and said: "His Royal Highness has experienced it personally just now. May I ask if it is different from last night?"
Princess Gaoyang was reluctant: "Of course it's very different. You were much more excited last night!"
Fang Jun simply lay down and let himself be laughed at, breaking the jar and smashing it: "Okay, your highness has golden branches, jade leaves, and golden words. That's what you say."
When he said this, Princess Gaoyang turned over, leaned against Fang Jun and supported his chest with her elbows, looking down at his expression: "Did you really not touch her?"
Fang Jun pointed to the sky and swore: "If you have an affair with Baling, heaven and earth will destroy you, and humans and gods will be angry!"
It must have happened, but she touched me...
"Oops! Bah, bah, bah! A bad spirit doesn't work, a good one does. What's the point of swearing in vain? I just slept, so what does it matter? Baling is always very proud and hates it to death."
Princess Gaoyang became angry after slapping Fang Jun on the mouth.
He put his arms around the slender and soft waist, tightened it, and held the delicate body in his arms. Fang Jun looked up at the roof, thinking a lot in his heart.
Princess Gao Yang arched her head and found a comfortable position without moving. After a while, she suddenly said quietly: "Is there something Erlang is hiding from me? I always feel that something is not right about the current situation. There must be some invisible gift. Yin is secretly controlling everything, whether it’s Dong Gong, Guan Long, or even you, Lang Jun, they are all under control.”
Fang Jun was really shocked at this time and said in surprise: "Why did your Highness say this?"
Is it possible that the principle of "those who are close to ink are black, and those who are close to vermilion are red" are so correct? Princess Gaoyang and Wu Meiniang hang out together all day long, but they actually have some political talent?
And this habit of talking about things while doing things is clearly in the same vein as Wu Meiniang...
Princess Gaoyang snorted and said dissatisfied: "Do you really think I am stupid? I usually have you outside and Mei Niang at home. I am too lazy to think about it. If I have time, I might as well take care of my skin more, so as not to be disliked by my husband when I grow old... ...However, the situation is now dangerous and everyone in the family is nervous. I am the head of the family, how can I just be silly and happy all day long and not care about everything?”
After a pause, she said cautiously: "Did the prince deliberately frame him because he was afraid of his great achievements?"
As a royal princess, what she most wants to see is that her husband can be loyal and patriotic, and be trusted and valued by the emperor and prince. On the contrary, you will be caught in the middle and be in a dilemma.
Fang Jun patted her smooth back and said warmly: "As for you, you have been born in the royal family since you were a child, and you have been blessed with fine clothes and fine food. I don't know how many lifetimes you have cultivated it, so you only need to enjoy the blessings in this life and only take responsibility. Just eat, drink, have fun, and be as beautiful as a flower. If you can’t sit still, just have more children. Don’t worry about these things in the court.”
"Yeah."
Princess Gaoyang nestled her baby head on her husband's chest and wrapped her limbs around him like an octopus. Her heart was filled with warmth and emotion.
If you have a husband like this, what else can you ask for?
Just such an intimate act naturally triggered a turbulent battle. After a few rounds, the army was defeated and begged for mercy...

Tongguan.
There was a slanting wind and drizzle outside the window. Li Ji was sitting alone in front of the window. The kettle on the small stove in front of him was whirring white steam. He took off the kettle, poured water and poured tea, and listened attentively to the scout's report.
After a long time, he said: "Pay close attention to the movements of Guanlong. If there is any abnormality, report it immediately. Don't slack off."
"Here."
After the scouts retreated, Li Ji filled the teacup with tea from the teapot and took a sip. The tea entered his throat, with a fragrant fragrance and endless aftertaste. However, he seemed not to be in the mood to taste it. His eyes were slightly distracted, looking at the rain outside the window, but he seemed to ignore it.
With soft footsteps behind him, Chu Suiliang pushed the door in, sat down in front of Li Ji, poured a cup of tea for himself, held it in his hand without drinking it, thought about it, and said, "I don't know why the British Lord called me here. ?”
Li Ji remained silent and just drank tea slowly.
Zhu Suiliang didn't drink, but put down the tea cup again. He stared at the light yellow tea soup in the cup and whispered: "I know nothing."
Li Ji then withdrew his gaze from the window, looked at Zhu Suiliang, and said in a cold tone: "Do you still know your situation? No one in the world except me can save you from the guillotine, and the reason why I am willing to save you is The value of your life is to prevent your family from being wiped out and your descendants to be extinct. But if you hide something from me like this, what use do I have to you?”
There were no harsh words, but the coldness in the words made Zhu Suiliang shudder and his face turned pale.
As the head of the prime minister, he was a courteous official, a civil and military leader, and could refute the emperor's will. What's more, Li Ji's foundation was in the military, and he was one of the best commanders in the world. With such a strong civil and military foundation, even the emperor must pay three respects.
Zhu Suiliang naturally knew what kind of crime he had committed. The reason why he is still alive now is that he has not been freed from the crime, but the time has not yet come.
Just as Li Ji said, if he still wants to live and does not want his descendants to be massacred and his entire clan to be exterminated, Li Ji is the only one in the world who is willing and able to save him.
He said helplessly: "Unless I didn't tell you, I really couldn't tell you."
Li Ji stared at him with burning eyes for a long time, until cold sweat broke out on Zhu Suiliang's forehead, then he snorted, lowered his head to pour tea, and stopped paying attention.
Zhu Suiliang was sitting on pins and needles. When he saw that Li Ji was ignoring him, he asked tentatively: "Then... should I go back first?"
Li Ji hummed, without raising his eyelids, and warned: "But if there is any abnormality, report it immediately."
Zhu Suiliang froze for a moment and wanted to explain his difficulties, but he swallowed his words again, just nodded silently, then turned and walked out.
Li Ji drank all the tea in the cup, stood up, picked up a coir raincoat and put it on, opened the door and walked into the wind and rain. He and Zhu Suiliang walked in front of each other and entered the nearby courtyard where the coffins and coffins were parked.
Things have obviously been beyond his control. What he has to do now is not only to accurately control the situation in Chang'an, but also to stabilize his position.
The wind and rain never stop.

Zheng County borders Huashan Mountain to the south and Weishui River to the north. Since ancient times, it has been an important route to and from Guanzhong, connecting Tongguan and Chang'an.
A large military camp is stationed outside the county town, and thousands of soldiers are stationed here. They are the private army of the Nanyang Duan family who entered the pass to support Guanlong.
The wind and rain were like darkness, and in the camp, all the Duan family disciples were in gloom and mist.
In the middle, a middle-aged man in armor with a white face and no beard looked solemn: "A letter has just arrived at home. There is still some food stored in the store. It has already set off to transport it. But there is too much today and the journey is difficult. At least we have to go." It will take more than a month to arrive here.”
The three or four young people in front of them howled miserably, and one of them shouted: "How can we do it? Now the army's food can only last for three days. When the food is exhausted, is it possible for us to lead the soldiers to dig grass roots and peel trees in the wilderness? Skin?”
Another person said: "Guan Long and these bastards are really a bunch of rubbish. So much food was burned down by Fang Er... Brother, now Guan Long has too much time to take care of himself. It seems that no one cares about us. Why don't I lead the troops?" Go to the nearby villages and towns to plunder some food and bring it back, otherwise wouldn’t so many soldiers be starving to death?”
The fair-faced middle-aged man was silent.
When a soldier fights, he just wants to eat. Now the army is running out of food. If it cannot be replenished in time, the morale of the army will be weakened and the team will be unable to carry it.
But plundering villages and towns... this kind of disaster would be too great. (End of chapter)
