Thrown out of the house, the wet nurse enters the noble household and becomes a person of high statu

"Jealous?"

Pei Yaojun's eyes darkened, and he lowered his head to bite her earlobe.

"I'm doing this for your own good. You're a wealthy person now, and that Xiao Yiheng is hiding his identity; how can he protect you?"

He loosened his teeth, his lips tracing the side of her neck, his warm breath spraying over her.

"Do you realize that in other people's eyes you're a piece of easy prey?"

Liu Wenying trembled slightly. "I know."

Pei Yaojun propped himself up and looked down at her. "You know? I can tell you clearly know nothing at all."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly kissed her.

She tried to push him away, but he grabbed her wrist and pressed it above her head.

A dark red outfit and a light blue ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress) are intertwined, and the brocade on the couch is crumpled into a ball.

"Pei..." She managed to utter just one syllable before the rest was swallowed up by an even deeper kiss.

He seemed to be venting all the anger he had been holding in.

Liu Wenying couldn't stand it and let him have his way.

After a long, long time, Pei Yaojun finally released her.

Liu Wenying was panting, her lips were swollen and red, and her eyes were filled with tears.

Pei Yaojun leaned over her, his thumb tracing the corner of her moist lips, his eyes dark and intense.

"The ultimate pleasure in the world? If Yingying wants that, why look for someone else?"

Liu Wenying noticed his change and her face paled slightly.

"Third Master, I've just recovered, I can't."

Pei Yaojun, however, said there was another way.

After saying that, he slid off the soft couch.

The summer breeze sneaks in through the window cracks, carrying the fresh scent of bamboo leaves.

The light blue skirt was lifted by the "wind".

……

Suddenly, the door was gently pushed open a crack.

A furry head popped in; it was Shan Qing.

It always clung to Liu Wenying, and now it opened its eyes, looking curiously into the tent.

I don't quite understand it, but it seems like its owner has been bullied.

Shan Qing stepped onto the footstool, moved closer to Liu Wenying's drooping hand, and licked her hand.

……

After an unknown amount of time, Liu Wenying, who was limp as a rag doll, was held in Pei Yaojun's arms.

He whispered in her ear with a smile, "It seems Yingying likes it very much."

Liu Wenying didn't even have the strength to glare at him anymore, so she just closed her eyes to rest.

The afternoon sun was blazing, but most of it was filtered out by the dense shade of the village.

Lu Ye had just finished training the guards, and his outfit was soaked with sweat.

He raised his hand to wipe his sweat and habitually called out to Shan Qing, but received no response from the familiar wolf cub.

Lu Ye frowned slightly. Shan Qing, that little guy, besides clinging to him, spent all his time sneaking into Liu Wenying's room.

Lu Ye turned and walked towards the backyard.

The door to Liu Wenying's residence was ajar. He pushed it open and went inside. Only the servants responsible for cleaning were inside.

I only found out after asking that Jichuan had been taken out to sunbathe by Granny Wang and Granny Tian.

Liu Wenying was also not there; she must have gone to see a guest.

Lu Ye nodded and left the room. Just as he was wondering where to look, the carved wooden door of the side room next door creaked open.

Lu Ye paused, and then saw Liu Wenying come out of the house.

Her dress was a little disheveled, and one of the ties at the front was loose, revealing a small patch of her collarbone.

Her cheeks were flushed an unnatural red, and the corners of her eyes were even redder, as if she had just been crying.

Liu Wenying naturally saw him too, and was clearly taken aback.

"Lu, Lu Ye".

Lu Ye's eyes darkened, and he strode forward to stand in front of her.

The height difference allowed him to clearly see a suspicious red mark on the side of her neck, as well as her slightly swollen lips.

His voice was urgent, "Wenying, has someone bullied you?"

Liu Wenying's face turned even redder, and she subconsciously raised her hand to tighten her clothes.

She avoided his gaze and turned to walk towards the main house.

"No, no, I... I'm a little tired, I'll go back to my room and rest first."

Lu Ye reached out his hand, but she, like a startled rabbit, hurriedly pushed his hand away and practically fled into the main house.

"Bang."

The door was closed, and the sound of the bolt being bolted could be clearly heard.

Lu Ye stood there, his brows furrowed.

Just then, a furry head peeked out from the crack in the door where Liu Wenying had come out.

Shanqing jumped out, wagging its tail. Its round eyes saw Lu Ye and it immediately ran over happily, circling around his boots, its tail wagging like a windmill.

Lu Ye bent down, picked it up, and stroked its soft fur.

The half-grown wolf cub looked like a kitten in his strong arms.

Immediately afterwards, the door to the side room opened again.

Pei Yaojun came out of the house.

His clothes were neat, but his hair ornament was a little crooked, and a few strands of dark hair hung down in front of his forehead.

His lips were unusually red and glistening with moisture, as if they had just been moisturized.

Pei Yaojun raised an eyebrow when he saw Lu Ye holding Shan Qing standing at the door.

"Is there something you need?"

Lu Ye looked up at him, his gaze falling on his lips. He then recalled Liu Wenying's appearance just now, and a nameless fire inexplicably rose in his heart.

His voice was cold and hard. "I've come to see Shan Qing."

Pei Yaojun glanced at the wolf cub in his arms and chuckled softly.

"So you've found it, why aren't you leaving?"

His tone was so casual, yet it carried a languid air of contentment.

Lu Ye didn't move. He stared at Pei Yaojun and asked, "What did you and Wen Ying do just now?"

Pei Yaojun's eyes flickered slightly as he looked Lu Ye up and down. He could tell at a glance that Lu Ye was a virgin, and his honesty was almost comical.

Pei Yaojun grew increasingly smug, and drawled out his words, teasingly asking, "What I did is none of your business?"

"Your affairs are none of my business, but they are related to Wenying."

"Heh, think what you want."

Pei Yaojun straightened his sleeves and walked past Lu Ye towards the courtyard.

The figure walked further and further away, its steps so light they seemed to float, even its back exuding a sense of triumph.

Lu Ye stood there holding Shan Qing, looking down at it.

The little guy was tilting his head back, his round eyes sparkling as he looked at him, his tail wagging wildly, and a satisfied purring sound coming from his throat.

Lu Ye suddenly felt that Pei Yaojun's smug and satisfied look just now was somewhat similar to Shan Qing's frantic tail wagging at this moment.

They were all overjoyed because they had benefited from the situation.

On the day of the Beginning of Autumn, the summer heat has not completely dissipated, but a new solar term has arrived.

Inside the elegant residence, the eldest princess sat in the main seat, with Liu Wenying sitting beside her.

The other six people sat around the table, the atmosphere solemn.

Xiao Yiheng was dressed in a light blue satin brocade robe with cloud patterns. His face was still somewhat pale, but he was no longer as frail as before.

After more than half a year of careful recuperation, his body has recovered to the most extent, but he still occasionally experiences mild aftereffects, such as feeling tired after the slightest movement.

But time waits for no one. Xiao Chenlin had been on the throne for a long time, and his foundation was gradually becoming stable. The court was full of his confidants.

If Xiao Yiheng doesn't take action soon, his chances of regaining the throne will only decrease.

Over the past six months, everyone has been busy and doing their best.

Liu Wenying managed the hot spring estate and Zhiyun estate with great efficiency, attracting a constant stream of guests and earning a fortune that provided ample financial support.

The three men of the Pei family each performed their duties, while Xiao Yiheng, in his spare time, recuperated and reorganized his old subordinates, secretly contacting court officials loyal to the late emperor in the name of the eldest princess.

"Gentlemen, the reason I have gathered you all here today is to discuss important matters."

The real task is to purge the court of corrupt officials and restore order to the country.
