Shen Xu said with difficulty, “No need. I…”
Before he could finish, Tang Guixi grabbed his hand and dragged it to her.
“Don’t mention it. I’ll pick it out for you.”
Shen Xu was not being polite. He was really afraid of pain!
But he couldn’t bear to pull his hand away.
After all, the person holding his hand was Tang Guixi.
The two of them clasped their hands. Such an intimate action was something he had never experienced before.
This kind of opportunity was too rare. If he gave it up, who knew when the next opportunity would be?
Tang Guixi did not know about the messy thoughts in Shen Xu’s heart. As she gripped Shen Xu’s hand tightly, she picked up the silver needle. The thin needle quickly fell and pierced into a blister.
Shen Xu immediately shivered in pain, and the imagination that ran wild in his mind dissipated.
Tears welled in his eyes and were about to fall.
But no.
As a dignified man, he could not cry over such a small matter.
Especially since the woman he had a crush on was sitting opposite him.
He gritted his teeth and used all his endurance to force back his tears.
Tang Guixi’s movements were fast and accurate. One blister after another was broken.
Not to mention Shen Xu, even Prince Min, who was a spectator, could not bear to watch anymore.
He looked away and sighed inwardly. “Son, you’re on your own!”
The blister was quickly flattened after being pricked.
Tang Guixi picked out the ointment and applied it evenly on Shen Xu’s palm.
It was not until this moment that Shen Xu was in the mood to look at Tang Guixi.
Her facial features were beautiful, especially her eyes, which were big and bright. Her eyelashes were long, and her nose was straight. Her hair was all combed into a ponytail, revealing her full forehead. Her skin was a healthy honey color.
His gaze moved down her face.
Her shoulders were very straight and her sitting posture was straight. Even though she was dressed tightly, it was obvious that she did not have any fat on her. She was tall and had long legs.
The only shortcoming might be that her chest was flatter than most.
But no one was perfect. She was already very good like this.
Shen Xu looked at Tang Guixi in a daze, his thoughts drifting further and further away.
Tang Guixi called him a few times but there was no reaction.
She Rimnlv raised her hand and flicked him nn the forehead
Only then did Shen Xu suddenly come back to his senses.
“Ah! What was that for?”
Tang Guixi looked at him speechlessly. “What were you thinking about just now? You looked like you had lost your soul.”
Shen Xu felt guilty. “N-nothing.”
Tang Guixi stood up. “It’s getting late. I’ll go back first.” Shen Xu hurriedly said, “Do you want to stay for dinner before leaving?” Tang Guixi waved her hand to indicate that there was no need.
“I still have things to do, so I won’t be having dinner with you.”
Shen Xu could only suppress his reluctance and say, “Then I’ll send you off.”
He walked her to the front door.
Before leaving, Tang Guixi suddenly asked.
“Are you still going to work in the fields tomorrow?”
Shen Xu had already decided that he would never plow again, but now he had changed his mind.
“Yes! I’ll definitely go!”
It was not easy for Tang Guixi to see him in a different light. He could not give up halfway. He had to persevere until the end!
Tang Guixi raised her eyebrows in surprise. “I originally wanted to help you do the work in the fields tomorrow, but it seems that there’s no need. Then continue to work hard. See you another day.” With that, she waved and strode away.
Shen Xu was left standing there in a daze.
If he had said that he could not do it just now, Tang Guixi would have been able to help him. At that time, the two of them would have a chance to interact again.
He had actually given up such a good opportunity.
The tears he had painstakingly held back just now suddenly flew out.
Boohoo, he regretted it so much!
In addition to farming and reclamation, the Eastern Expedition Army had to build fortifications.
Sentry towers rose from the ground, and earth walls connected to each other.
By the time Xingning City found out that Heng City had been captured, it was already a month later.
As the prefectural city of Liaodong County, Xingning City had once been the most prosperous place in the entire Liaodong County. Now, it had become desolate. The goods of the merchants in the city had long been looted and they could no longer do business. The homes of the ordinary people had been plundered clean. Even the once high and mighty local powerhouses were not spared.
The entire Xingning City had almost become a dead city.
The Chen Nation Army, who was entrenched here, was happily dividing the spoils. Unexpectedly, the news of the Eastern Expedition Army attacking Heng City suddenly came.
Marshal Chen was naturally incomparably furious. He immediately ordered troops to attack the Eastern Expedition Army and take back Heng City!
When the Chen Nation Army arrived near Heng City in a mighty manner, they were immediately discovered by the sentries on the sentry tower.
The sentry immediately blew the horn hard.
The sound of the horn spread from one watchtower to another and quickly reached Heng City.
The soldiers and commoners who were still working immediately stopped working.
All the soldiers put on their armor as quickly as possible and prepared their weapons.
The commoners listened to the arrangements and quickly retreated to the city.
Tang Guixi and Xiao Juan had both left the city to fight. All the matters in the city were temporarily handed over to Yu Niaoniao.
Although Xiao Juan had promised Yu Niaoniao before he left that he would definitely return safely, Yu Niaoniao was still very worried.
There were several times when she wanted to go up the city tower to take a look at the battle outside the city, but she was stopped by the people around her.
Granny Xiu Yan advised, “There’s a battle outside the city. As the saying goes, swords have no eyes. What if a stray arrow hurts you? Just wait in the city in peace. ”
Perhaps because she was overly worried, Yu Niaoniao suddenly began to vomit.
She had to vomit no matter what she ate. Even if she didn’t eat anything, she would vomit. In the end, she really couldn’t vomit anything and could only vomit bile.
Granny Xiu Yan’s heart ached. She tried her best to make delicious food for her.
Although she did not have an appetite, for the sake of the baby in her stomach, Yu Niaoniao could only bite the bullet and eat.
As soon as she finished eating, she started vomiting again.
Granny Xiu Yan patted her back to calm her down.
When she was almost done vomiting, Granny Xiu Yan got someone to bring warm water.
“Have some water.”
However, Yu Niaoniao said, “I want cold water.”
Granny Xiu Yan said, “Cold water is bad for the body. Warm water is better.”
Yu Niaoniao insisted, “Give me cold water.”
Granny Xiu Yan had no choice but to change her cup of cold water.
Yu Niaoniao picked up the cup of cold water. The cold liquid flowed into her body along her esophagus, and the disgusting feeling was suppressed a little. She finished the cold water in her glass in one gulp and finally felt better.
At this moment, Ling Hai ran in quickly.
“Madam, Li Hongye requests an audience.”
Ever since Yu Niaoniao stopped them from calling her the Princess Consort, everyone had switched to calling her Madam. Yu Niaoniao wiped her lips with a handkerchief. “Let her in.” Granny Xiu Yan hurriedly took the spittoon away.
Soon, Li Hongye arrived with a basket full of arrows.
“Madam, please take a look. My sister and I made these arrows ourselves.. Do you think they can be used? If they can be used, can they be sent to the soldiers in front?”
