This way of pulling quickly attracted the attention of the servants in the courtyard.
”Prince and Princess, what's going on? Are you in an awkward situation?”
The servants were all very perceptive, each of them focused on eating, no one raising their head again.
On the dining table, Qian Yexun practically assumed the role of a servant. First, he scooped all the delicious food into his own woman's bowl and watched her finish eating before feeling satisfied.
Ban Xia's sullenness had mostly disappeared under his flattery and care.
The consequence of eating too much was that when Ban Xia stood up, she found her stomach was round, and was almost unable to move.
”I'm going to take a stroll to get rid of the food.”
She stood up and walked to the other courtyard. Qian Yexun also threw down his bowl and chopsticks and followed along.
At a time like this, the most important thing was to coax her and to cheer her up.
”This King will accompany you!”
Ban Xia deliberately moved to the side, and replied with a cold look on her face, ”I don't dare to trouble you! ”All day long, if you really have so much military matters to attend to, you can go and busy yourself with them!”
If she was busy with military matters and it was all an excuse, how could she not recognize it?
”My wife, are you really angry with me?” This time, Qian Yexun was really a little anxious.
”Ignore me. Leave me here alone for a while.” At this time, reason told Ban Xia that she shouldn't be causing trouble without reason, that this man was in charge of the affairs of the Banyan City, that the pressure on his shoulders and the burden on his shoulders were too heavy to bear. When he returned to his residence, he naturally wanted to relax and relax.
How can I do that? This king came back today specifically to accompany you, and the army camp that ambushed the barbarians successfully burnt their rations, I don't think they will be able to take the initiative to provoke us again in a short period of time, and also launch a new attack. For the time being, Banyan City is safe.
Qian Yexun obviously could not leave at this time. His wife had not been coaxed, so how could he give up halfway?
”You must be feeling proud of yourself. This has severely disrupted the morale of the barbarians. That Acton should be infuriated by you. So, you have avenged him by spreading your rumors.” Ban Xia wanted to laugh. Everyone said that a woman's heart's eye was smaller than a needle's eye, but a man's heart's eye, wasn't it too?
Just because the barbarian leader of Acton had said a few vague words to him to sow discord between the two of them, the man had begun to ignore him and avoid him.
If he wasn't petty, then what was he?
I'm not angry with him for spreading my rumors outside the city. I'm just angry that he shouldn't have set his mind on you, you're this king's woman, only this king belongs to this king, what kind of thing is Acton? He, Acton, dares to think so highly of my woman, so of course, I'll make him pay a heavy price. Qian Yexun frankly admitted his' small-mindedness'.
The current him was domineering and powerful.
But when Ban Xia heard these words, it was actually very enjoyable.
After all, he still had some status in his heart, and from the looks of it, it seemed that his position was not low at all.
”Aren't you afraid of being prepared for a sneak attack?” At that time, if your people do not return, wouldn't that be terrible, and they would have died for you for nothing? ” But Ban Xia still did not want to let him go so quickly.
”When has This King ever acted so rashly before? Do you still not believe This King's ability? If I did not have a seventy to eighty percent assurance in being able to escape, how would I have told Zhang Liang to bring some people to go out and launch a sneak attack? I care about their lives more than anyone else. ”
On the battlefield, what he feared the most was not defeat, but unnecessary bloodshed and sacrifice.
”Every single soldier is raised and raised by their parents, and they all have their own relatives, and even wives, children, and children. Perhaps they are the pillars of their families, but in order to protect the nation, they have no choice but to use weapons to defend their homeland. The bloodshed was inevitable in any battle. But if the sacrifice is not worth it, then the blood lost would be in vain. It's a pity. ”
Although he was the marshal, over the years, he had never looked down on an innocent life.
”Fine, I'll just pretend that I didn't say anything just now.” Ban Xia expressed her surrender.
”My wife, how is it? I've vented my anger for you. Are you happy?” Qian Yexun got closer to his woman, and wrapped her in his embrace.
