After rebirth, I seduced the abstinent Marquis and became the white moonlight

Chapter 72 If you want to die, go ahead and get out of here

When everything was over, most of the water in the bathtub had spilled. Shen Ning leaned back in the bathtub, his head tilted back, with a flush in the corners of his eyes.

She caught a glimpse of the flickering candlelight from the corner of her eye, and had the illusion that she didn't know whether she was in heaven or on earth. She could only hug Si Yan helplessly, and murmured in a hoarse voice as if she had been crying: "Husband~"

The next day, Si Yan got up early. He didn't want to disturb Shen Ning, but Shen Ning was still awakened by the sound of him getting dressed.

Shen Ning leaned out, lay on the edge of the bed, half-closed his eyes and said: "Where are you going~"

She spoke with long drawls and a lazy tone, and it was obvious that she was not awake yet.

Si Yan was wearing armor, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, broad shoulders and a narrow waist. He looked imposing when he just walked around. But when he heard Shen Ning's voice, he seemed like a different person and his expression softened immediately.

"Let's go to Guanling. Didn't I tell you last night that there will be a maid to help you wash and dress up later. Ling Xiao and Ling Feng are also here. Just wait for me to come back." Si Yan explained to her in a steady voice.

Shen Ning nodded, as if he remembered something. The next second, his head drooped and his eyes closed. He looked extremely sleepy.

Seeing this, Si Yan didn't want to disturb her and pretended to leave, but the next second, Shen Ning raised her drooping arms and waved at him without moving her hands. She said vaguely, "Come back soon. I miss you."

After hearing this, Si Yan's Adam's apple rolled twice. He strode over, took Shen Ning's hand and pressed a kiss on his lips. Then he rubbed Shen Ning's head with his big palm before turning and leaving.

Although the troops of the Prince of Jin did not arrive, Si Yan could not just sit there and wait. He discussed with Zhao Qingxun and decided that Zhao Qingxun would continue to do the work of the Prince of Jin, while he would first lead a team of people to Guanling to explore the way and see what the situation was like on the border of the Western Rong.

After a day and a night, Shen Jie and others finally reached Guanling County, which was the border between Xirong and Zhao State, and also their closest chance to return home.

However, to their disappointment, Guanling had completely fallen and became the site of a war. It was not an exaggeration to say that the people suffered terribly. At this time, social order was gone, and murder, arson, burning, looting and robbery became commonplace.

Although Shen Jie had always been cautious, he was with three women, all of whom were beauties, so he would naturally attract attention. If he encountered someone with bad intentions, Shen Jie, who was a scholar, would not be able to protect them.

To be on the safe side, the three of them changed into men's clothes and made themselves look uglier.

This idea was proposed by Zhao Qiyue. Yuwen Xilan naturally had no objection and did as she was told. However, Lu Qiqi seemed to be deliberately going against her and refused to change. At most, she was willing to put her hair up and change into plainer clothes.

Zhao Qiyue didn't indulge her, and directly pulled her aside, pointed at her and asked her to change, but Lu Qiqi still refused: "I won't wear it, it's so ugly."

She has always relied on this face. If Shen Jie saw her making herself look ugly, the image she had worked so hard to build would be ruined.

Zhao Qiyue didn't know what was going on in her mind, and said unhappily, "If you want to die, go ahead and die. Get as far away as you can and don't drag us down with you, okay?"

Lu Qiqi's face turned pale and blue after being scolded. She turned around and was about to leave: "Why are you like this? I don't want to pay attention to you. I want to go find Brother Youbai."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and was about to walk back, but after taking two steps, she suddenly stopped.

A dozen men walked out of the woods opposite. The scarred man in the lead looked at the two men with a smile and said, "What brothers are you looking for? Aren't all the brothers here?"

As soon as the words fell, the people behind him also started laughing.
