”You did well.”
Yun Zuiyue's heart throbbed with pain, but she could not say anything. She would rather her lord and commander punish him ruthlessly. Even killing him would be better than this. Earlier, when he saw the young prefecture lord in a daze in the pavilion, he could only hate himself for not being able to protect her and let Bartle take advantage of the opportunity. Now that he was back at the princess' side, he had to personally guard her and prevent anyone from harming her again.
Lunch was silent. The sun at noon on the northern border was hot and dazzling, but it couldn't reach her heart.
Ever since she and Feng Qingxiao had come back, they ate three meals a day together. Today, not only did she not see him for breakfast, she did not see him for lunch either. Perhaps now he didn't even want to see her again, to humiliate the regent. She smiled bitterly. The victim was clearly her. After enduring so much, she still had to face such a situation after coming back.
”Princess, I request an audience.”
Yun Yin said in a low voice. An Jing was sent by him to report on the business situation. At the same time, he also sent people to summon the person in charge of the Glazed Light Workshop and the two directors of the military hospital. He wanted to use these things to divert the princess's attention and focus on these matters. When he got busy, he wouldn't have much time to think about other things, so he was worried and unhappy.
This method was very effective, Yun Zihuang was very quickly busy receiving these people and taking care of things.
She was busy until the evening when she finally had some time to rest. She wasn't the only one who was eating dinner. Ouyang Baofeng came over to accompany her for dinner. With this great commander Nine-tailed Fox's blooming lotus flower, dinner was not a lonely affair.
”Great commander, what should we do with Yun Ming and the rest?”
”They have already been incorporated into the army, starting from the little soldiers. Although there is no war, there are still plenty of opportunities. I will send them to supervise the slaves in the northern region. In the future, they can be promoted.”
”Thank you, Commander.”
Ouyang Baofeng smiled and said, ”The princess is now known as the imperial concubine, and Ouyang Baofeng is no longer worthy to be her elder brother.”
She smiled. ”If you were willing to be my big brother, I would naturally be very willing. However, I thought that the commander wasn't willing to be my brother when you addressed him as' wangfei '.”
He smiled and lowered his voice. ”When there are outsiders around, I'll address you as' wangfei '. In private, I'll call you' little sister '. I just don't know if you're willing to be my foolish brother's little sister?”
Yun Zihuang was slightly startled. Ouyang Baofeng's words had quite a profound meaning to them. If he called her sister-in-law, it was because of Feng Qingxiao. Right now, this commander wanted to call her ”little sister”. This meant that he had abandoned the War God and was discussing matters with her as siblings.
”If anything happens to you in the future, I'll just throw it to you.”
”This is what I wish for.”
After sending off her big brother, she quietly lay on the bed and circulated her energy until she was deep in the night. She blocked out all distracting thoughts and stopped thinking about those painful things. She really wanted to immediately fall asleep, but it was extremely rare for her to lose sleep. This was the first time she tasted insomnia, so she lightly sighed.
Tonight, he wouldn't come, right?
