My Lord, please respect yourself. I am the wife of a marquis.

Chapter 136 It turns out that the princess could still speak even when she was asleep.

"It turns out that the princess can still talk when she is asleep." Xiao Yunjin pushed the door open and heard her say this. He felt funny and sad at the same time. It turned out that Su Muxi didn't even have such a relaxing moment when she was by his side.

Seeing Xiao Yunjin coming uninvited, Su Muxi quickly sat up and wanted to get off the bed to greet him, but was stopped by Xiao Yunjin, "Just lie down! I just have a few words to say to the princess."

Su Muxi covered herself with the quilt and asked, "What do you want, my Lord?"

"It's not really an order," Xiao Yunjin sat down on the small table, keeping a safe distance from Su Muxi, "How did the princess know that I was still alive?"

"I left some people in Tao County. They reported that there were many more people buying grain. There are not many people in Tao County, so how could there be such a large grain transaction? I asked them to keep an eye on it. I didn't know it was the prince, I thought it was the Prince of Huaiyang's people."

So this is how it was exposed. Tao County was Su Muxi's fiefdom, but she had never been there once. Unexpectedly, she knew everything about it. He was careless. "The princess reported the matter of hiding the soldiers to His Majesty, right?"

Although it was a question, he was very sure. Many people have explored the Desolate Mountains recently. Although all the problems have been solved, the hidden dangers still exist.

"Yes," Su Muxi did not hide it, "This time it was really critical, I was desperate and tried every possible means, I didn't expect the prince to come in person."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for saving Guanyang City and the Su family army from danger." Su Muxi put her attitude very humble. She wanted to draw a clear line between herself and Xiao Yunjin.

Xiao Yunjin understood that Su Muxi had guessed what she said. She guessed that the soldiers hidden in the Cangliang Mountains were his. "The princess's visit is also beneficial to me. Now you and I are on the same boat. I will not let the princess down."

Xiao Yunjin was trying to win her over. Su Muxi was disgusted, but could not express it for the time being. "We both serve His Majesty. Your Highness is overpraising us."

Xiao Yunjin smiled, with the corners of his lips slightly raised, which was really weird with his decisive face. Su Muxi felt that Xiao Yunjin must be up to something. She didn't want to talk to him, so she pretended to be sick again and did what she did to her father.

She had a fever last night, but the medicine suppressed it. Her throat felt dry and uncomfortable. She coughed a few times at first, and then couldn't stop. She felt that the soreness in her throat was a foreign object stuck in her throat, and she had to cough it out to stop.

Xiao Yunjin panicked and wanted to come over to pat her on the back, but Su Muxi stopped him. Then Xu Suqing pushed the door open and walked in, "Your Majesty, the princess needs to rest."

"Then you help him take his medicine." Xiao Yunjin's current status made it rare for him to sit in the same room and talk about things. He couldn't do anything else. "Princess, please have a good rest. I'll take my leave first."

"Princess, please have a cup of tea to moisten your throat first."

Su Muxi really couldn't stop and coughed for a long time before she stopped. Her throat was really uncomfortable. She drank the tea in the cup in one breath and then she felt a little better.

"The cough is really killing me. Give me another drink."

Xu Suqing obediently poured her another cup. As soon as they touched each other, the heat from Su Muxi's body continued to flow, "Princess, you have a fever again."

"Yes, go and boil the medicine, and make a big noise." Su Muxi was afraid that his father would worry, but now she wanted to save some trouble, "Just say that I have a high fever and am unconscious, and can't see guests."

Xu Suqing lowered her head to hide the smile on her face, as if she had not expected the princess to have such a lovely side. "I understand, princess."

Xiao Yunjin returned to his own courtyard. It might be because he felt that he was of noble status, or it might be because no one dared to share a courtyard with him. In short, he owned an entire courtyard in Guanyang City.

Xiao Yunjin ordered Cang Jue, "Let Cang Ying come to see me."

Cang Jue nodded and turned to call Goshawk.

Goshawk was injured. His original mission was to ensure Yingge's safety. When Yingge did not come out at the agreed time, he sneaked into Jinling's tent, but he came up empty-handed. Yingge left a note, which he could not understand, but he found out after asking around that Jinling had taken Yingge to Hanshui City, and he had taken people to Hanshui City again.

Unexpectedly, Hanshui City had changed its owner. He knew that things had gotten serious, so he sent a pigeon to send a message to his master. The reply he received was to kill Jinling. Thanks to Yingge's cooperation, he completed the task very quickly. Just as he was about to reveal the matter to the princess as his master had instructed, he was surrounded by people.

He thought without a second thought that the territory of Feng Kingdom was the Feng Army. He fought to the death, only to find that he had beaten his master's father-in-law.

"Master, I was wrong."

Cang Ying covered his chest with his hands, looking as if he had lost all hope in life. When he saw Xiao Yunjin, he knocked down with a thud. The sound was so loud that Cang Jue was worried about his knees. He knew that he was going to be beaten, so why bother with his knees?

Xiao Yunjin looked worried, "What's wrong? Tell me."

"I discovered something was wrong with Hanshui City, but I didn't inform the princess right away. I also mistook the marshal for the enemy, which delayed the opportunity to fight."

"You know how to punish me, right?"

"Yes, yes. I will punish you with eighty lashes."

Xiao Yunjin glanced at Cang Ying and said, "Let's execute the Cang Jue and beat him outside. Let him learn his lesson."

"I accept the punishment." Cang Ying was devastated and followed Cang Jue out.

Xiao Yunjin played with the black jade in his hand. He thought too much and missed too many things. Su Muxi once said his name in a dream. At that time, he was He Yuncheng. He felt that Su Muxi was insincere and had ulterior motives in marrying him.

But now, looking at it and thinking about it, this sense of distance is really annoying. Su Muxi and He Yuncheng have met, but she couldn't tell the difference. When she thought about what would happen between them, she felt like something was stuck in her throat, and she felt suffocated and uncomfortable.

In the yard came the muffled groans of Goshawk, one after another, and he actually recalled the time when Su Muxi had people beat him with a military stick. It was really painful at that time!

"My Lord, the fight is over."

"Help him back to rest! Give him two bottles of the golden wound medicine, and let him reflect on himself and use his brain when doing things next time."

Cang Jue nodded, took the medicine, and left the room.

"Ouch, count them." Goshawk lay on the bed, sweating from the pain on his forehead. "Do you think the master's anger has subsided? I always feel like I've hit the gun."

"Your feeling is correct," Cang Jue applied medicine to him, "What was the master's last instruction? Did you think about it?"

Cang Jue was so disappointed that he said, "I left a letter for you, asking you to obey Madam's orders, and I also left all the people with you. What does this mean? Aren't you afraid that the princess will be in danger? But you are so good that you go far away instead of near. If the master is a step late, you will lose your life."

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, you can say that, but why are you using so much force on your hands?"

Cang Jue retracted his strength and asked Cang Ying, "Do you understand what the master meant just now?"

The goshawk was confused. Was there any deeper meaning behind the punishment for making a mistake? "What does it mean?"
