She fell out after crying at the wrong grave

Hengzhi was so busy with military affairs these days that he was overwhelmed.

Ever since he inherited the position of Marquis of Kezhou, the people he can trust have become fewer and fewer.

The entire patrol camp can be considered as some of Hengzhi's confidants, and they met on the battlefield when they were young, so they can be considered as comrades. They are still in the army now, but the leaders have changed from top to bottom. Some people who secretly want to insert people have probably been inserted almost.

It was not easy to ask them to do the job, so the remaining ones were the secret guards. The secret guards were reliable and loyal, and they were the best sharp weapons.

Therefore, Hengzhi ordered the secret guards to investigate the matter of Beitang. The secret guards followed Zhao Zhuo until the fire at Feiqinyi. When they rushed into the fire scene and found that the body was not there, they followed him all the way back to Kezhou.

That is to say, it was difficult to check openly, so the pace was slow. When the news was passed to Hengzhi, Zhao Zhuo had just returned from the place where he was recruited in disappointment.

The location of the new parade ground needed to be personally inspected and finalized, so Hengzhi had not had time to tell A'an about this.

But she didn't expect that Zhao Zhuo would fall directly in front of her door, catching Hengzhi off guard.

I knew she might detain someone, but I didn't know she had let him live in her shop. The risk was too great. What if I couldn't keep an eye on him and Zhao Zhuo did something reckless?
Hengzhi admitted that he was a little angry at the moment, but when he saw Ah'ao's indifferent look, he couldn't help getting angry.

"Since you knew Zhao Zhuo was in danger, why did you leave him behind? Do you really think you can do anything?" Ah's elbow was gripped in his hand, and he used force as his tone rose and fell.

As if she had done something evil, Ah-yi frowned in pain, "Let me go first."

He heard it, but did not move.

Ah-yi realized at this time that he was actually really angry, so she had to patiently explain, "Of course I know this is a risky move, but can you please let go first? It hurts."

She said this somewhat awkwardly, and it sounded somewhat soft.

Hengzhi suddenly came back to his senses, and his knuckles that had been tightened suddenly loosened. He turned his head away, and felt that a chair was brought from behind and placed in front of Ah-yi with a "bang", as if he would not give up until he got an explanation.

Ah-yi looked at him being so heavy-handed and couldn't help but grumble in her heart. Even after they were in this relationship, he still didn't trust her in protecting herself.

The half-baked uncle is still alive and well, how could she joke with his life?

"Why do you think I left Zhao Zhuo's wife and young son behind? If I didn't consider anything else and just kept him, why would I bother to help with his wife's medical treatment? Do I look like a rich man?" He felt sad when he said this. This month, he was spending more than he earned.

Hengzhi had a stern face and showed no emotion at all.

I don't know what Ah'ao is thinking. I clearly warned her during the previous dangerous situations not to handle anything alone.

But her words were like wind in her ears, and even when the breeze blew over the hills, she remained unmoved.

Even if there are doubts in my heart that must be resolved, why can't I rely on him for a little?

"Yes, you don't look like that." Hengzhi nodded and took out a crumpled piece of paper from his bosom. "She can support three more people even though she is in debt. The princess is kind and virtuous. I overestimated it."

It turned out to be the IOU written to him in Dangshan.

Ah-yi sat at the table, silently clenching the silk cloth spread out. Even though she was already annoyed by Heng-chi's weirdness, she managed to stay calm and not get impulsive.

She never liked to argue with others. It was a futile effort that could not solve anything, it was just a way to vent her emotions, which was of no help.

And Ah'ao also understood that the dispute they were in at the moment was just due to misunderstanding and there was no real conflict, so there was no need to add fuel to the fire by quarreling.

Besides, quarreling with Hengzhi... is pretty uncomfortable anyway.

"I came back today to tell you this." Ah-yi said word by word, staring into his eyes that were still covered with snow. "I won't do anything that will put me at risk, but I will never let go of an opportunity that I can seize."

The words sounded nice, and Heng Zhi laughed instead of being angry, "Okay, I want to hear how the princess managed to avoid taking risks."

He simply leaned back on the chair, with his long legs bent casually and his hands crossed in front of him.

He showed her the dissolute and frivolous look that he put on for others to see.

Ah'an gritted her teeth and said, "Not to mention that his wife and children are right in front of me. Even if he knew that Zhang Shiliu died because of me and exposed my identity, would he rush over to kill me? The people in my shop are not just for show."

After a pause, he continued, "Besides, if there is blood, and people all around come to see it, then I can just blackmail Liu Jingming and help you."

"Cui Wei, you are a princess, you..." How can you gamble with something that would hurt yourself?

Before she finished her words, Ah-yi stood up and said with an unquestionable solemnity, "I am not a princess."

After changing his posture, Hengzhi had to look up to see A'ao.

Now I'm really angry.

"Some things don't need to be said, but I'm afraid the young marquis will forget them if I don't mention them for a long time, so I'll say it again." His voice was suppressed, revealing a bit of coldness. "The royal family's surname is Shen, and the new emperor has no heir. I'm not a princess of the Shen family. I'm in the same camp with you, not to cling to you, and I don't need your protection all the time. Since we're standing on the edge of the cliff, we have to be each other's shield."

In early spring when there are flowers and willows, perhaps you will forget that the gentle water on the lake surface is still the hardest ice.

A'ao is like the ice in early spring.

Her constant smiling eyes are like the crystal clear but unmelted ice in the spring, tricking everyone who comes to see her into looking at her face.

If you were to probe her without knowing the depth, you would find that you were completely deceived. She was still cold and sharp, and would not be affected by anything.

She will never give up her bottom line.

"So, do you understand?" Ah-yifu bent down, almost bumping into him face to face. Her momentum was fast, but her timing was just right, and she suddenly stopped when her noses were about to collide.

With a threatening look, he stared coldly. Just like the gap between the mountains in Shu, it is called a line of sky. The distance between the two people is just a ray of light.

The shadows cast on the ground are intertwined and dependent on each other, like an uncontrollable kiss.

The two sides were in a warlike atmosphere, and the sound of clanging swords could almost be heard.

"What if he really hurts you?" Hengzhi looked at her, defeated like a desperate enemy, "Can you bear to see the newlywed Zhao Hou become a widower?"

Ah's eyes widened unconsciously.

It was a very intimate sentence, spoken like a flirtation, which made Ah's soul numb and she almost wanted to shrink back involuntarily.

Hengzhi's arm was even quicker, crossing behind her waist, blocking the retreat of the lone general. Ah-yi was unable to maintain her balance, and she crashed into Hengzhi.

A heat surged up from the place where their toes touched, and her pulse became disordered almost instantly. Ah-yi realized that her cheeks would soon become hot and stained with suspicious red clouds.

Fortunately, the candlelight is dim, and everyone looks deeply in love.

Hengzhi looked at her inch by inch in the candlelight.

The rough bumps between his fingertips were the embroidery on her dress. Ah-yi didn't like large pieces of embroidery, only some tiny patterns on the edges. These patterns made Heng-chi's heart itch as he casually traced them.

So unconsciously, he raised his chin little by little.

He knew he was about to cross the border between Chu and Han, but he didn't care.

Until the ray of light completely disappeared, the moment their skin touched each other, people pushed them away in fear, but they held them again in the blink of an eye.

The situation took a turn for the worse, someone was turned from a defensive player to an offensive player, and was now almost reaching her city gate.

The smell of burning candle oil seemed to turn into gunpowder smoke.

Hengzhi put his arm, which was used to block, on Ah's back and held her gently.

The room was silent and no one interrupted this beautiful scene.

……

"Hey!" Mrs. Zhou asked in surprise, "What are you thinking about?"

Ah'an, who was wearing an apricot-colored skirt, suddenly came to her senses. The word "囍" in her hand was soaked with paste and became limp, and could not be pasted.

"Here, for you." Mrs. Zhou used a pair of sharp scissors to quickly cut out a new one for her.

The one who ordered the full-moon banquet was Zhang Hai, the owner of the largest restaurant in Kezhou City. His wife died a few years ago, and he just redeemed a dancer from Hua Restaurant, and made her his second wife when she became pregnant.

The day after tomorrow was the baby's full month celebration, so a banquet was held for many shopkeepers in the city. Almost half of the people in the Chamber of Commerce received invitations.

Mrs. Zhou was in charge of decorating the interior. She felt that it would be a waste of time to cut and paste everything first, and it would be difficult to adjust if there were mistakes, so she suggested cutting and pasting on the spot.

But just as the work started, I noticed that Ah's eyes were wandering and she would be distracted if she wasn't paying attention, and her efficiency dropped a lot.

"Ah's daughter, were you a thief last night?" Mrs. Zhou glanced at her while cutting her hair. "You look so absent-minded. This is the bill from Ke Zhang! Don't you want the money?"

Looking at the paper flower that was about to crumple into a ball in her hand, Ah-yi sighed in frustration, "I didn't do anything last night!"

If you didn't do it, then you didn't do it. Why are you making such a noise? Mrs. Zhou didn't understand and smiled.

Come to think of it, A'ao had no idea what happened last night.

I just remember that two people were arguing, and she was acting very serious.

But why are they arguing...

It's understandable that young men and women can't help themselves when they get close to each other by chance, right?

This gentle kiss made Ah-yi sleep poorly all night. She only remembered that she was coaxed into learning some self-defense martial arts from him in the end.

It was all Hengzhi's fault! He tossed and turned on the couch all night, causing it to creak. Every time he felt sleepy and finally forgot about that absurdity, he would be woken up again.

As a result, the sky was dimly brightening, and Hengzhi was heard climbing up with full energy.

He moved gently enough and even pressed down the couch with his hand to prevent any louder noise.

But Ah-yi's sleep was not sound, and she woke up at the slightest disturbance. Although she was still lying down, in the silence, Ah-yi still heard a "click" sound from the knife holder.

Then the door was pushed open, and soon the sound of a long knife swiftly cutting through the air was heard from the yard.

Fiddling with his fast long sword so early in the morning, eh?

It's hard to tell which of them is sicker.

Seeing that she was lost in thought again, Mrs. Zhou put on an ambiguous smile and suddenly said to Ah-yi, "It's normal for a young couple."

Ah'an wailed and buried her whole face in her palms.
