201 Full of Power
Hong Shan curiously touched the birthmark on Jiang Xi’s body and felt that her mind suddenly became much clearer. She shook her head and wondered if it was an illusion. It was probably an illusion. She was still very sleepy just now, but she was actually feeling refreshed now.
“Young Madam, it’s not good. The palace has sent a decree, saying that the general is to set off for the border in three days!” Lu Liu ran in a panic, frowning. Who would separate a newly married couple? How inauspicious!
“The border has not been very peaceful recently. I don’t know where a force came from. It is said that they are very strong and their actions are very savage. However, it’s not like our country doesn’t have people. Why must the general go… ” Lu Liu grumbled. Jiang Xi’s husband had to go to the border after just getting married. There were so many people in Jing City waiting to see Jiang Xi’s secret.
Jiang Xi did not say anything, but she touched her chest in a daze. Zhao Ruifeng also told her about it during lunch. Zhao Ruifeng used to think that it was good to fight a war as long as he did not stay in the Zhao residence. However, he really did not want to go out now! He just wanted to stay by his wife’s side!
“Sigh, His Majesty has been in a bad mood these days. It seems that the imperial preceptor said something to him. It seems that our country is going to be in big trouble.” Zhao Ruifeng sighed. He had also gone to see the imperial preceptor yesterday. The imperial preceptor said that the country was facing internal and external troubles, and these troubles were not limited to the Northern Border. It seemed that their country’s luck was suddenly not good.
“Today, His Majesty was still asking if there was something wrong with the Dragon Mountain. How did the country’s fortune become like this overnight?” Zhao Ruifeng scratched his head. It was really strange. Last month, the country was peaceful and the people were safe. How could this month be so miserable?
“The imperial preceptor isn’t in a good state either. It’s as if his country will be destroyed tomorrow.” Zhao Ruifeng shook his head when he thought of the imperial preceptor’s crying face this morning.
Jiang Xi did not dare to speak. For some reason, she felt a little guilty.
“If you don’t want to deal with the people in the residence, you can ignore them. I’ll deal with them when I return.” No matter how Zhao Ruifeng looked at her, he felt that his wife was soft and could be bullied at any time. Sigh, he really did not feel at ease leaving such a cute little wife at home.
“Don’t worry, we will definitely get along well with the concubines and their children in the residence. No matter what, we’re still family. Even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected.” Jiang Xi put on a fake smile.
“Sigh, you’re too naive,” Zhao Ruifeng was even more depressed. The two of them were eating when they heard the servant girl outside the door report, “Young Madam, Concubine Wen has arrived.”
As soon as the servant girl’s voice fell, Concubine Wen entered the room and knelt on the ground, “I beg Young Madam to leave me by your side to serve you.” Concubine Wen’s tears were streaming down her face. In the past, she used to like colorful clothes and thick makeup, but now she was wearing a black dress without any makeup. In the past, her waist was slender and could be held with a hand. Now… Well, it seemed to be a lot thicker. Even though she had tried very hard to tighten her belt, her waist seemed to be even more muscular.
Zhao Ruifeng was stunned. ‘Serve? Serve what? You didn’t even serve Xiao Meili, the wife of the Zhao family. Why did you come to Jiang Xi?’
“This is not in accordance with the rules. Concubine Wen should return. If father knows, he will not be happy.” Zhao Ruifeng felt that there was probably a trap. He did not like to deal with these concubines, so he did not show any mercy when he spoke.
Concubine Wen sobbed. “It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter if you don’t agree. In any case, I want to stay in your courtyard to serve you.” God knew that she had gained weight these few days. Every morning when she woke up, she could see that her face and body had gained another round of weight. Moreover, not only did she gain weight, but she was also getting stronger! Her body was so hard that she could not even pinch it! Yesterday, Zhao Hongwei had just returned from eating at Concubine Mei’er’s place. Because aunt Mei’ er was pregnant and could not sleep with him, Zhao Hongwei had come to find Concubine Wen. Who knew that as usual, when she wrapped her weak legs around Zhao Hongwei’s strong waist… Zhao Hongwei’s waist was almost broken by her!
Concubine Wen was so shocked that she forgot to move her legs away from him. Zhao Hongwei could not even get up from the pressure of her legs. When she came back to her senses, she went to help Zhao Hongwei up. It was even more embarrassing. She actually lifted Zhao Hongwei up! At that time, Concubine Wen felt that her entire body was filled with strength!
