Chapter 381: Let's save the explanation for them.
He still reached out and touched her face. It was soft and a little cool. Would it just melt away in his hands?
"I want you to marry me, do you have any objections?"
"I only want you, but you have many people in your heart, and I don't want that."
"Shut up!" Wu Ziyan frowned, her eyes turning cold. Her expression changed faster than turning the pages of a book.
The Wu Ziyan that the owl heard now was different; she really didn't need to wear a mask, she had a million faces.
Yelü Hanxuan swallowed hard. These were words he often said to her, but he never expected them to come back to haunt him.
"Why aren't you saying anything? Speak up!"
Yelü Hanxuan was so angry he laughed. He was no pushover, and a hint of murderous intent rose in his heart.
He had already raised his hand, but when he saw her pale face, he simply couldn't bring himself to do it.
"Why did you think of killing me for a moment just now? You can't even handle that? You'll have a lot more to suffer after you marry me!"
"I didn't agree to that!"
"It was an arranged marriage. I don't know if your parents are still alive, but your sister is, and she can make the decision for you."
"She won't agree to it; she'll kill you!"
"Come on, come on, cut here." Wu Ziyan exposed her snow-white neck again and leaned towards Yelü Hanxuan.
Yelü Hanxuan grabbed her shoulder with one hand and started biting directly at her neck.
"what!"
"My lord, what's wrong!"
"fine!"
Yelü Hanxuan really went all out with that bite, tearing out the flesh.
Now there is a row of teeth marks on his neck, from which blood is seeping out.
Some blood even stuck to Yelü Hanxuan's mouth, and he licked his lips with a bloodthirsty lick.
"This scar will never heal!"
"What's the point of you doing this?"
"Leave a mark, you belong only to me."
"Then why did you say you didn't want to marry me?"
"Those are two different things."
The Northern Rong royal court was almost completely wiped out, leaving only those willing to submit to the Wu Dynasty, as planned.
All those warmongering reactionaries were killed; this is the cruelty of war.
By the time they returned to the Northern Rong Royal Court, the people along the way seemed to already know about their story.
They all knelt down, praising the goodness of Wu Tianchao.
Yelü Hanyong's plans completely collapsed, leaving him with no choice but to sign the unequal treaty.
Moreover, Yelü Hanxuan was married to Wu Ziyan.
They did not hold a wedding ceremony; Wu Ziyan left after signing the treaty establishing a vassal state.
Before leaving, she spent a long time alone with Yelü Hanxuan.
"If you really don't want to, you don't need to come to see me off as I leave today. From now on, you will still be the Prince of Hanxuan of Beirong. Your marriage has nothing to do with me. If you are willing, kiss me now."
He frowned; to him, the engagement was a disgrace, but deep down he still held onto hope.
Since the contract has already been signed and the die is cast, why shouldn't he do it?
He pulled Wu Ziyan outside, whistling, and the horse came galloping up.
He lifted her onto the horse; for him, that was the perfect height for the kiss.
He grabbed her clothes and pulled her towards him. He bit her; she was too soft.
Sure enough, she was still the kind of person who would break at the slightest touch, and dared not use too much force, so she could only take a small bite and stop.
Her lips were already bleeding, but it didn't matter; he was already completely at her mercy.
She set off back to Beiyang, and he watched her go, for this was a major event—a marriage alliance between two countries.
He must first send betrothal gifts upon his return, and then be welcomed into the capital in a grand procession.
The owl wrote all of this down in her little notebook, intending to give Mo Baiyun a good dressing down when she got back; she could already picture his expression.
Chu Qiu and his group were waiting for him at the border. He had even mentally prepared himself to see that annoying person.
I only saw Wu Ziyan, which relieved me a little. Although I might see him again in the future, I won't see him now.
She stepped down from the carriage, and instead of letting Chu Qiu see her, she walked towards Huang Ziliang.
"Ziliang, I'll leave the rest to you."
"Don't worry, the draft treaty has been sent back to the capital."
"General Chu Qiu, how come you're no longer my personal bodyguard after being promoted to general? Come here."
"Your Highness."
She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him, right in front of all the soldiers and Huang Ziliang.
She just blinked and didn't say anything.
Chu Qiu blushed as red as a crab, and the once majestic general turned into a little quail.
Chu Qiu understood that Wu Ziyan was telling everyone about his status.
However, it is really inappropriate to do such a private thing in front of a large public, but the impact lasts longer, so I am reluctant to let go.
After they parted, an owl flew across the sky and landed on Wu Ziyan's shoulder.
Upon opening the mailbox, they discovered a message stating the momentous fact that the Empress was no longer able to attend court!
She never expected things to progress so quickly, and that this event likely occurred before the capture of Bei Rong.
I wonder what the Empress's situation is now. Originally, the reunion was a joyous occasion, but now she has to hurry back to the capital.
Wu Chengji is pregnant, and the pregnancy is neither too far along nor too late. He is busy with all the affairs of the court, which is not good for the fetus.
I wonder if his fickle third sister will try to make a move in this incident?
a month later
The Empress's health had improved, and this was her first time attending court since Wu Ziyan's return.
The purpose of attending court was solely for one thing: besides bestowing titles and rewards, the achievement of subduing Beirong this time, and establishing an heir apparent!
Everyone thought it would be Wu Chengji, but unexpectedly, the Empress made Wu Ziyan the Crown Princess.
He worked with Wu Chengji to handle state affairs.
three months later
The whole country rejoiced at the marriage of Wu Ziyan and Yelü Hanxuan, but the wedding could not be held because Jiu'an Prefecture had not yet been rebuilt.
That day, after Wu Ziyan finished court, Xiao Yun'er was waiting for her outside. She had a long face and looked like someone owed her millions. This was the first time she had ever given Wu Ziyan such a hard time.
"Master, is it that you bring someone back with you every time you go somewhere?!"
"Little Yun'er, I thought you would understand me."
“I also want to understand you, but you don’t understand our hearts at all, Master. I’m a little disappointed in you.”
"When did you two become so close? I always thought the men in the manor were divided into three factions. It seems there are only two now."
"Yes! We're in one faction, and that foreigner is in another!"
As he spoke, he climbed into the carriage. This was the first time he had ever thrown such a tantrum so openly.
"Little Yun'er, you have to understand me."
"I don't understand! Even if I could understand everyone in the family, I still wouldn't understand. You should save your explanations for when you get back home."
Mo Baiyun drove the carriage away, but Wu Ziyan hadn't gotten in yet!
Fortunately, Wu Chengji's carriage was waiting for her. Now that her pregnancy was stable, she could go to court again.
