Retreat, Retreat, Retreat! - Chapter 28
If Xiao Changning really wants to be nice to someone, he can’t wait to give him all his heart.
The bad words that were taken for granted six years ago hurt people, but they turned into nothingness in the three months of getting along with each other day and night. When you say an apologetic word, it is like moving away a huge boulder on her heart, and even breathing is a lot lighter.
Shen Xuan accepted her apology calmly, and stared at her calmly, “Doesn’t your Highness think that the minister married His Highness just to avenge the slanderous slander of the year?”
Xiao Changning thought about it seriously, and honestly said: “At first this palace did think it was your revenge, but now it seems that Admiral Shen is not a narrow-minded person.”
Shen Xuan smiled Liang Liang, “This governor is a narrow-minded person.”
“…” Xiao Changning choked, a little heartbroken, “Are you really trying to get revenge?”
Shen Xuan sat cross-legged, with long legs and wide shoulders. A strong and powerful arm was placed on the table at will, and said in a low voice: “If someone else is like this, the Governor will return it ten times, but if it is your Highness, Don’t worry about it.”
Xiao Changning was a little flattered, Linglong’s eyes couldn’t hide the joy, and smiled: “My palace knows that Admiral Shen is a good person.”
“Because,” Shen Xuan looked at her with a vivid smile, a trace of joking across her eyes, in a rare gentle tone, “Even if the Governor does not retaliate against Your Highness, Your Highness is pitiful enough.”
Xiao Changning was not happy enough, so she was beaten back to the place with a single sentence by Shen Xi, and she couldn’t help but sighed with a frown, and said grimly: “It’s so…Should I say thank you?”
Shen Xuan said, “It’s okay.”
“It’s okay?” Xiao Changning asked puzzled. “You should say’you don’t have to thank you’.”
“It’s not wrong.” Shen Xuan looked at her in time and said, “It’s ‘it’s okay,’ the minister only said this time.”
Xiao Changning was stunned, his eyes rolled, and he quickly reacted. Shen Xuan’s ‘It’s okay’ was a reply to her—the reply to an apology that was six years late.
The knot that had been in her heart for a long time finally opened, and she didn’t know what to say.
In this world, not every word of’I’m sorry’ can be exchanged for a’It’s okay’, Xiao Changning feels how lucky he is, even if life is like a stumble in the night, fortunately, before falling into the abyss of fate, Shen Xuan handed it to her. A strong arm.
“His Royal Highness knows why Lin Huan, the chief of the basalt warlord under the minister, is so greedy?” As her thoughts were surging, Shen Xuan suddenly turned the topic to Lin Huan.
Xiao Changning returned to his senses, remembering that when she first came to the East Factory, Lin Huan had mentioned it when she was familiar with the environment of the East Factory, and replied: “The Chief Lin told the palace that he was afraid of being hungry when he was a child. Only then did I become obsessed with eating.”
“Yes.” Shen Yun nodded and said slowly, “Lin Huan is addicted to food, only one thing, he would rather die than touch it.”
“Why do you eat?”
“drumstick.”
Xiao Changning didn’t understand what Shen Xuan wanted to do when she mentioned it suddenly. After a moment of doubt, he asked along the topic: “Chicken should be considered a delicacy for a poor child like him. Why did Chief Lin resist so much? ?”
Shen Xuan paused, and Fang said: “When he was twelve years old, his sickly elderly mother used a chicken leg to trick him out of the palace gate, and used his life’s freedom and dignity for two or two. Silver and three liters of rice.”
The candle fire crackled, and Xiao Changning slowly widened his eyes.
Shen Xuan’s narrative is a poor world she has never touched before. In that world, the poor are like ants, and the poor are like weeds. A teenager was castrated and castrated and became a disabled prisoner who could not escape in the deep palace for a lifetime. The disastrous price is only a compensation of two ounces of silver…
Two taels of silver, not even comparable to the monthly money of the court ladies around her.
“Furthermore, Jiang She, the son of a prostitute in a brothel, even if he has a hundred steps to wear Yang, he is only an outcast who was sold to the palace by his stepfather and exchanged for money.” Shen Xin’s tone was calm, but every word seemed like a heavy hammer on Xiao. Changning’s heart.
Xiao Changning felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and whispered, “I…I didn’t know this before.”
“The minister did not blame His Royal Highness. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, they are just like the ministers, they are just a group of monsters who drink blood.” Shen Xi laughed, changed her posture, and said solemnly, “Of course, the unfortunate experience can’t make them wrong The excuses of the minister, including everything the minister did, the minister did not justify himself.”
The topic seemed to be a bit heavy, Xiao Changning’s red lips opened slightly, and he asked after a long while: “Why do you want to talk to this palace?”
Shen Xiu raised her long eyebrows flying diagonally and raised her chin slightly and said: “Because they are the same as His Royal Highness, no matter how high or low their status is, everyone who works hard to live in the mud deserves respect.”
He has just finished taking a shower, his clothes are loose, and a little bit of Adam’s apple will appear when he raises his head slightly.
Xiao Changning was in a daze for a moment, before moving his gaze away from Shen Xu’s neck, warmly said: “This palace understands that only by accepting everything from Dongchang, this palace can truly stand side by side with you.”
Shen Xuan said: “This is difficult. After all, Dongchang is always with sin and danger. Is your Highness afraid?”
Xiao Changning nodded, shook his head quickly, and said: “My palace finally understands why the Dongchang Fanzi is so loyal to you. With Admiral Shen here, my palace is not afraid.”
The corner of Shen Xuan’s mouth couldn’t help raising, and she quickly pressed it down.
He wanted to hug Xiao Changning and rub her shiny black hair. The fingers moved, but they held back.
Xiao Changning didn’t notice the slight change in his expression. At this time, she was full of Shenxuan, and couldn’t help asking: “What about you, Admiral Shen? What is your past like?”
Shen Yan was stunned for a moment, and then calmly said: “It’s not very easy to say, the court voluntarily entered the palace.”
“You lied.” Xiao Changning whispered softly with eyes like torches. “The wildness and toughness that are soaked in your blood will not be revealed unless you have gone through thousands of trials.”
Then, she said a little aggrieved: “Admiral Shen knows that when I saw you the day I married to Dongchang, I was so scared that my soul was gone.”
Shen Xuan said indifferently: “The minister naturally knows, isn’t your Highness fainting in the arms of the minister?”
Xiao Changning’s face was hot.
Shen Xuan was happy in her heart, and said calmly and very naturally: “It’s getting late, go to bed.”
After that, he stood up, his tall body enveloped Xiao Changning like a mountain.
Then, in Xiao Changning’s puzzled gaze, Shen Xuan slowly opened her arms, as if asking for a hug.
Xiao Changning blushed even harder, and said in his heart: Is Admiral Shen so anxious? Is it inappropriate to ask for a hug so loudly?
No, it’s okay, after all, they are already married.
Xiao Changning’s heart was upset, and his wet eyes looked at Shen Xuan unblinkingly, already a little sluggish.
Seeing her motionless, Shen Xuan frowned slightly, and urged: “His Royal Highness can’t come yet?”
Xiao Changning got up in a hurry, and the shadow of the lamp was plated in her eyes, like broken gold floating. She hesitated for a moment, and said nervously, “Really, really?”
Shen Xuan asked, “His Royal Highness is here to compensate the ministers, isn’t it?”
Right……
Xiao Changning took a deep breath and walked slowly to stand in front of Shen Xuan.
The night is deep, the shadows of the lights are shaking, and the snowy night in the mid-winter season looks so peaceful and quiet. In the next moment, Xiao Changning stretched out his hands tremblingly, and his soft arms passed under Shenxuan’s open arms, and lightly and shyly embraced his strong waist.
Instead, Shen Xuan was shocked.
The moment Wenxiang Nephrite came up, he was taken aback for a moment, then lowered his head, just in time to see Xiao Changning’s gleaming clear eyes.
It was a pair of very beautiful eyes, beautiful and sultry, with waves like water and eyelashes like butterflies. He was looking at him shyly and firmly at this time.
At that moment, Admiral Shen’s heart trembled.
His open arms stiffened, then closed slightly, and put his arms around Xiao Changning’s waist vigorously, making the two bodies fit more closely together, making them fit tightly together.
Shen Xuan’s body is strong and powerful, and he can feel his vigorous muscles even through the thick clothing. It is hard and hot as a soldering iron.
Shen Xuan bowed her head and whispered in a smiling voice: “What is your Highness doing?”
Xiao Changning blinked and said sincerely, “Didn’t you open your arms and let the palace hug you?”
The lantern crackled and fell, gently, for fear of breaking the ambiguity in this room.
“The minister is just,” Shen Xuan stared at her deeply, her eyes were dark and deep, and she said dumbly, “I want your Royal Highness to undress the minister.”
There was dead silence in the house.
……undress?
……undress? ! ! !
Xiao Changning’s white face rose rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the whole person appeared briefly at a loss due to extreme shame and shock. Then, she reacted slowly and slowly, and suddenly withdrew her hand, and broke away from Shen Xuan’s embrace, as if she was holding a red soldering iron instead of a fleshy body.
Shen Xuan looked at her empty embrace, frowning as if dissatisfied.
Xiao Changning stumbled back and said with a blushing face: “I…you…”
Shen Xuan stepped forward and approached her, her eyes were not bottomed, and she slowly said, “But if the princess needs it, the minister is willing to accompany her.”
“Don’t!” Xiao Changning stretched out a hand against his generous chest to stop him from coming closer, then suddenly covered his face and said tremblingly, “Please, please! Forget it!”
Shen Xuan shook her head, still feeling still, “I can’t forget it.”
“I, I’m going to take a shower and change clothes…” Xiao Changning was flustered, his eyes dodged and didn’t dare to look at Shen Xu’s proud handsome face, blushing and bowing his head, he walked out.
She hurried to escape from the bedroom. She stood under the corridor, closed the door with a slam, and leaned on the door to breathe the cold air of winter night, and her hot heart slowly recovered its calmness.
Not long after, Shen Xuan’s deep laughter came from the room, and Xiao Changning wanted to find a place to sew in.
After bathing slowly, the embarrassment that should be faced still has to be faced. Xiao Changning moved into the bedroom, and Shen Xuan was already sitting on the couch.
The room is warm. He is wearing a thin jacket, with ink hair draped over you, wide shoulders and narrow waist, a strong pectoral muscle is exposed from the slightly open placket, and he is beckoning to her happily:
“come over.”
