Chapter 11
Wei Ji had been busy all day in the camp today, and it was not until evening that the lieutenant urged him to go home early.

"The general just got married, so why spend the whole day in the camp, it's not right for the wife to stay alone in the boudoir."

The lieutenant general's surname is Liu, and his name is Liu Zhaohui. He is Wei Ji's playmate since he was a child, and also his closest confidant.

Only he dared to say some things to the cold-faced Hades.

However, Wei Ji was ruthless to the enemy, but he was kind to his own people. Liu Zhaohui made such a fuss, and the young soldiers around laughed.

Wei Ji glanced at them, and said calmly: "You are also going to be weak crowns. When I tell my father, I will choose marriages for you lonely monkeys."

When he opened his mouth, the young soldiers wailed again.

After the late Zhou Dynasty, the south and the north were in chaos, the Wu Family Huangpao uprising, the warlords separated the court, and the world was in chaos for seventy years.

Kyushu split, Guozuo collapsed, and now there are more than six people with national titles in the entire Central Plains.

In troubled times, the people are in a difficult situation. Most of the young vanguard soldiers around Wei Ji are orphans of war.

Therefore, when it comes to marrying a daughter-in-law, everyone is afraid.

They are not afraid of weak little ladies, they are afraid of the resurgence of war. If they die on the battlefield, how will the ladies live?
Wei Ji glanced at them, and said calmly, "Is that why you don't believe in yourself?"

Sergeants, look at me and I look at you. In the end, Liu Zhaohui laughed: "Look at what you said, General, even if we have the heart, there is no lady who is willing to marry us."

Wei Ji frowned, and there was a flash of light in his eyes.

"Not really."

There is no need to mention the gossip here, Liu Zhaohui and another lieutenant Li Jiye followed up and continued to report military affairs.

"General, the defenders of Yongfeng warehouse have recently reported that due to years of disrepair, the roof of a granary in Yongfeng warehouse has collapsed, and there is suspicion of rain leakage. The weather is cold recently, and there may be heavy snowfall. What should we do?"

Li Jiye is over [-] this year, he is calm and experienced, his legs and feet were injured in his early years, so he only cares about internal affairs.

Wei Ji paused with the knife in his hand, frowned and said, "The rest of the granary can't be transferred?"

Li Jiye sighed: "Yongfeng warehouse is an old granary in North Vietnam. Now it is reopened to store grain. Last year we had a bumper harvest. The warehouse is full, so there is no redundant granary."

Wei Ji nodded, and he said in a deep voice: "I understand, I will discuss it with my father when I go back, and we will discuss it later."

Li Jiye gave him a military salute, with a smile on his simple and honest face: "Recently, there are a lot of affairs in court, the Duke is busy, and the general has worked hard."

Wei Ji went back to give the military salute, patrolled the barracks again, and then rode home.

When he got home, it was past Xu time, dusk had come, and there was only a piece of sunset twilight left between the sky and the earth.

Wei Ji didn't go to Rongjingtang, he went back to Chunhuating directly.

At this time, Xie Zhijun had already had dinner most of the time, and returned to the main room to rest, so Wei Ji was thinking about military affairs while walking, and didn't notice that there was someone sitting in the main room.

It wasn't until Wei Ji took off the arm armor from his hand and handed it to Yu Yu's hand that he saw Yu Yu winking at him.

Wei Ji glared at him, then turned around, and saw Xie Zhijun sitting on the main seat from afar, looking down at the round fan in his hand.

The two are very unfamiliar, but they are not enemies, so Wei Ji stopped and stood in front of the dining room and asked, "Why are you sitting here, madam?"

In the past, Wei Ji would return home before dusk, Xie Zhiyun had some concerns in his heart, and wanted to wait for him today.

Unexpectedly, Wei Ji came back half an hour late today, making Xie Zhiyun wait for him an extra hour hungry, so he really couldn't show a good face at the moment.

Xie Zhijun was a little nervous thinking about what he was going to do later, and what he said was a little bit harsh.

"Young master still knows how to go home?"

Even the little father-in-law called out.

Wei Ji turned on his toes and strode into the main room, but he didn't go to Xie Zhiyun's side, he found a chair and sat down.

As soon as he approached, Xie Zhiyun smelled a hot murderous aura.

The lamp was lit in the room, illuminating the whole room brightly, Wei Ji didn't have any scars or blood on his body, but Xie Zhiyun could still feel the strong smell of blood that couldn't be melted away.

That was the indelible killing intent hidden in Wei Ji's bones.

Xie Zhiyun subconsciously hid back, Wei Ji felt relieved, and laughed slowly.

"Why, why can't I go home?"

Seeing that he actually smiled, Xie Zhiyun couldn't help feeling even more angry. She didn't know why she was angry, but she just wanted to lose her temper with him.

"My little father-in-law regards the military camp as his home. He leaves early and returns late every day. He probably has forgotten that there are relatives at home, and he doesn't want to go home when it's time for dinner."

"Why are you coming back?"

Xie Zhiyun said so, and when he got up, he wanted to go to the main room, but Wei Ji sat there motionless, the old god was there.

When Xie Zhijun walked to Wei Ji's side, Wei Ji suddenly moved and grabbed Xie Zhijun's slender wrist.

"Ma'am, what's the matter today?"

Wei Ji's palm was hot, burning Xie Zhijun's wrist like charcoal fire.

"If you really delay Madam's business, I will apologize for my husband and Madam."

He was able to lower his posture, and he recognized the mistake quickly.

Wei Ji's deep starry eyes glanced up, and he saw Xie Zhijun's almond-shaped eyes looking away, but he didn't look at him.

For some reason, Wei Ji found her appearance quite amusing.

Although he was losing his temper, he was playing like a cat, which is really cute.

Xie Zhijun snorted coldly and moved his wrist: "You hurt me."

Wei Ji's Adam's apple slipped slightly, he slowly let go of his hand, but stood up.

Before Xie Zhiyun could leave in the future, he was enveloped by his tall figure in his arms.

Wei Ji's hand caressed Xie Zhijun's slender waist without hesitation.

"Ma'am," Wei Ji's deep voice rang in her ears, "Because my husband realizes his mistake, why don't we have dinner together and apologize to you for my husband's sake."

Xie Zhiyun felt that her waist was very hot, her ears were also hot, and her whole body was uncomfortable.

She took a quick step forward and escaped from his restraint, only then did she feel able to catch her breath.

"Let's have dinner," Xie Zhiyun snorted, "I feel hungry too."

Wei Ji watched her slender figure disappear into the bead curtain, and he held it in his hand, as if he wanted to control that slender waist in his palm.

"This delicate temperament," Wei Ji murmured, "is harder to raise than a cat."

After sitting down for dinner together, Wei Ji discovered something different about Xie Zhiyun.

He chewed the steamed bun in his mouth, and his eyes fell on Xie Zhiyun for a moment.

He felt that she was a little different, but he didn't know what the difference was, and he couldn't tell the difference until he swallowed the bun in his mouth.

On the contrary, Xie Zhiyun was quite uncomfortable being looked at by him, and reprimanded in a low voice: "Look at what, eat well."

She is also beautiful when she is angry.

Especially paired with that water-red shirt, it looks even more youthful.

Only then did Wei Ji realize what was different about Xie Zhiyun.

Today she was rarely wearing a bright water-red dress, and the beanie on her upper body was rolled with rabbit fur, which made her face whiter and cleaner.

The water sleeves are swaying and winding on her arms, like a sea of ​​flowers in spring, beautiful and affectionate.

Xie Zhijun only likes to wear plain clothes on weekdays, and occasionally wears light yellow willow green, such a watery red color, which she only saw her wear in the first few days of marriage.

It's strange.

Wei Ji's hand holding vegetables paused slightly, thought for a moment, and asked, "Is there any happy event today?"

Xie Zhiyun had been hungry for a long time, and her stomach was full of gas, so she just ate the millet porridge slowly.

Hearing Wei Ji's question, Xie Zhiyun was a little surprised: "It's never happened before, why did the young man ask such a question?"

Xie Zhiyun called his husband in front of outsiders, but in private he only called him Major General or Wei Ji. Today, he might think that Young Master sounds nicer, but it was easy to call him.

In fact, people in Su Guogong's mansion are more used to calling him "Little Gongye".

It seems that there is really no happy event to speak of.

Wei Ji smiled and served her a bowl of soup, put it in her hand, and didn't say any more.

Xie Zhijun ate very slowly, but Wei Ji was used to life in the military camp and ate very quickly, so when the two put down their chopsticks together, Wei Ji ate two more steamed buns and a bowl of noodle soup than Xie Zhijun. Seventy to eighty percent full.

After dinner, the husband and wife were still sitting in the dining room, Xie Zhijun didn't leave, Wei Ji didn't move.

Xie Zhijun sat there, thinking back to Fu Yaoyue's words, her face blushed involuntarily.

After a while, Xie Zhiyun got up and said to Wei Ji: "Please come here, my little prince, I have something to say."

Wei Ji raised his eyebrows, watched Xie Zhijun's back disappear behind the Lingge door, but went to look for her immediately in no hurry.

He made You Yu serve a bowl of hot tea, ate it slowly, and listened to Yu Yu's report.

"Today Madam went to Guiyin Temple. She seems to have bought some incense. After coming down from Luoxia Mountain, she went directly to Princess Gaoyang's Mansion."

"Madam returned home after lunch at Gaoyang County Lord's Mansion, and she didn't make any more moves after that."

Wei Ji groped for the mouth of the teacup and murmured, "Fu Yaoyue?"

But he only stayed for a moment, then got up and went out, walked through the main room all the way, and went straight to the main room.

As soon as I entered the main room, I was greeted by a warm fragrance.

Wei Ji kept walking, and entered the main room amidst the shaking of the bead curtain.

In the main room is the familiar Qianbuxiang, which has the floral fragrance of jasmine and crabapple, and also has the fruity fragrance of citrus. It is sweet and warm, which is most suitable for such a winter day.

Wei Ji walked around the screen for the birds to announce the spring, and saw Xie Zhijun leaning on the canopy bed. Her hair was slightly loose, and her long black hair was hanging down her cheeks, showing a rare charm.

Xie Zhiyun was only wearing a thin soft pink jacket. She propped her side face with one hand, and the sleeves slipped off, revealing her white and slender forearms.

Wei Ji stood motionless by the screen.

Xie Zhiyun lowered her eyes, she seemed to be half asleep, and she didn't hear Wei Ji's footsteps.

For a while, the main room was as quiet as night, and a needle could be heard falling.

Apart from the two of them, there was no one else in the room. Wei Ji didn't look for Zhao Yu, nor did he turn around to ask more questions. His deep starry eyes fixed on Xie Zhijun, from her smooth feet all the way up, along the way. Follow her soft and slender body all the way to her flowery face.

Xie Zhiyun's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her breathing became disordered for a moment.

Wei Ji chuckled in his heart, but his face was calm and composed, even with a trace of doubt.

"Ma'am, what are you doing?" Wei Ji heard himself asking, "It's freezing cold, you should wear more, don't catch a cold."

 Xie Zhiyun: Wei Ji, are you okay?
  Hahaha, take a look~ Thank you for your votes and rewards~ I am very happy, and I will update it during the Spring Festival!
