After dinner, all the lights in Xiangyang City had been extinguished, leaving behind only the open doors of the bamboo houses in the brothels.

The Mongol army will soon attack the city, and the merriment will continue. It was true that the merchant girl did not know the hatred of the fallen country, yet she still sang ”Courtyard Flowers” across the river.

Within the Guo Mansion, another room was brightly lit. This was the Guo family's room.

Guo Jing took off his outer garments and sat upright on the edge of the bed.

Huang Rong was still in her early thirties. She had lost her youthfulness and was in the prime of her youth, causing the world to tremble.

In this era where there was no entertainment, it was the perfect time to enjoy the night in the boudoir, but Guo Jing was not interested in his beautiful wife at all.

His eyebrows were drawn together in a frown.

Huang Rong didn't see her husband for a long time and felt a bit unhappy subconsciously. However, she was a woman who understood the general situation. Moreover, she was no longer that weird teenage girl, so she had to think things over thoroughly.

”Elder brother Jing, what are you thinking about?”

He got up and helped Guo Jing put on his coat before patting his shoulder. He looked like a good wife and mother as he asked gently.

However, Guo Qing was so entranced that she didn't even hear Huang Rong's voice.

”Brother Jing, I know that the Mongol army is going to attack the city, but you have to sleep.” Didn't we repel the previous attacks of the Mongol army? I believe it's the same this time. ”

Huang Rong spoke again, comforting her husband in a soft voice, telling him not to worry too much.

”Ah, Rong'er, what did you say?”

Only then did Guo Jing come back to his senses, and he asked Huang Rong with a puzzled expression.
