The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Mo Yan leaned in the man's arms, a little panicked, but reluctant to push away, so she had no choice but to let him hold her. Her fingers unconsciously played with the man's hanging black hair, and the lining of the fingers became whiter and tenderer, forming another seductive scenery in the man's eyes.

The next moment, the troubled hand was also grasped by the man's big hand, and he was gently groped, dry and warm.

Not seeing each other for one day was like three autumns and not seeing each other for nearly a month. Xiao Ruiyuan finally couldn't bear the longing in his heart and came here. At this time, holding the woman in his arms, the empty space in his heart was finally filled.

Mo Yan didn't say anything, but she missed her a lot in her heart. She longed for the man's solid embrace and quietly listened to the heartbeat in her ears.

After a long time, the two separated, holding hands and walked to the sofa to sit down.

Mo Yan looked at the man's features carefully, and saw that he had lost weight, and asked with concern: "Have you been busy recently? Did you forget to rest when you were busy?"

It's nice to be cared about, especially when it comes from someone you love. The corners of Xiao Ruiyuan's lips curved up, and his low voice was like mellow wine: "There has been some instability in the west recently. Your Majesty ordered me to pay close attention to the movements of Qiuci Kingdom. I am busier than usual."

Mo Yan's heart tightened and she asked worriedly: "Will there be a war? Will you be sent to the border again?"

Xiao Ruiyuan gently stroked Mo Yan's brow, trying to calm her worries: "There may not be a fight, and it's unlikely that I will go. Yan'er doesn't have to worry."

When Mo Yan heard this, he felt a little relieved, and doubts arose in his heart: "Qiuci is just a small country. After the founding of Chu, it became a vassal state of Chu. It has not disturbed the tranquility of the border for more than two hundred years. Why this time?" …”

At this point, Mo Yan paused and looked at Xiao Ruiyuan. Seeing that he listened seriously and didn't feel at all that she shouldn't talk about government affairs, she felt a little happy.

Xiao Ruiyuan didn't know what Mo Yan was thinking, so he explained: "The king of Qiuci Kingdom was critically ill, and several princes fought for the throne at the instigation of a powerful official in the court. The powerful official wanted to subvert the royal power, so he deliberately provoked trouble at the border. , trying to use the help of Da Chu to remove the obstacles to the royal family."

Mo Yan didn't expect that there was such a complicated inner story, and couldn't help but ask: "Now that you know the purpose of that powerful minister, what is the Holy One's plan?"

Xiao Ruiyuan smiled slightly, with a frightening light shining in his eyes: "Hold still!"

Mo Yan quickly understood one of them, nodded and said: "This is best. No matter whose hands Qiuci Kingdom falls into, as long as it does not threaten the people on the border."

Kucha Kingdom's national strength is not strong, but it is a good barrier. You must know that Kucha Kingdom's neighbors are a nomadic people who are good at conquering and fighting. Once the Qiuci Kingdom is defeated, this nomadic people will inevitably affect the security of the Dachu border. And precisely because they were afraid of Chu, the nomadic people never dared to invade the Qiuci Kingdom on a large scale.

The Kucha Kingdom can still cope with small-scale war frictions. Once it cannot cope with it, it will give up some food every year in exchange for short-term peace at the border.

After all, it had little to do with them. The two chatted for a while and then put aside the matter of Qiuci Kingdom.

Thinking that she hadn't shared the good news about her father's high school Huiyuan with Xiao Ruiyuan, Mo Yan immediately sat up straight, with a bit of pride on her face: "My dad won the Huiyuan in one fell swoop this time, how is it? It's pretty good, isn't it?"

Seeing her proud little expression, Xiao Ruiyuan's eyes softened and he said calmly: "My father-in-law has always been very good."

This "father-in-law" was said smoothly and naturally, as if he had shouted it countless times.
