I married an exasperating eunuch Chapter 90 part 1

Chapter 90 Illicit (1)

At this moment, the sky was gradually darkening. Lang Yu and the others in the city had been waiting for a long time. They were relieved to see that the group have returned safely.

After telling them the situation roughly, everyone went back to sleep.

When deputy general Chu returned to his friend, he couldn’t wait to complain to his friend. There have been many ups and downs for him today. His calm life finally gained something to talk about. It was a pity that he could only tell Qi Shengwen who already knew the inside story and would keep this confidential. Even if Lord Li didn’t specifically warn him to shut up, he was no fool. It was just that it wasn’t easy to explain to sir Lang. After all, princess Yatai mentioned a girl. Sir Lang would definitely ask about it and Lord Li’s attitude on the city wall that day was also thought-provoking. Fortunately, Lang Yu went to talk with Li Youde first. Hence, deputy general Chu found a gap to talk to his friend and barely got an idea from his friend. This matter wasn’t easy to explain, but he could tell sir Lang the truth and try to hide it from the rest. It was enough if he says that he also doesn’t know when others ask about it.

When Li Youde went to rest, Lang Yu was listening to Chu Denggao and Qi Shengwen telling him about Chen Hui’s origins. Lang Yu has known Qi Shengwen since a few years ago. He knew that Qi Shengwen didn’t want to have an official career and loved to research the art of war. He also heard that he traveled often and sought advice from various experts. This time, he agreed to bring Qi Shengwen out of selfishness. He also loves talents and he was still thinking about the day he could persuade Qi Shengwen into join the officialdom. After hearing what Qi Shengwen had done, he couldn’t help but say that they acted willfully.

Qi Shengwen said, “Sir Lang, I indeed lacked consideration on this matter, but you can’t deny that it is indeed very effective.”

Lang Yu recalled the few times that he clashed with Li Youde and it had almost become a conflict. He had to agree with Qi Shengwen’s conclusion even if he still didn’t agree with Qi Shengwen’s way of doing things.

Qi Shengwen said, “Sir Lang, I know you and Lord Li have grudges. Dare I to ask how you plan to mention Lord Li this in the memorial to be presented to the emperor?”

Lang Yu pondered for a moment and said, “You don’t have to worry.”

Qi Shengwen understood what he meant and said, “Thanking sir Lang. I felt some remorse for involving Lady Chen and only wish for her to be at peace and in prosperity. Then, the one she depended on should also be stable.”

A slightly ironic smile appeared on Lang Yu’s face, “How will Lord Li fall so easily? It might not be a big deal a few months ago, but now, I am afraid that the emperor trusts him very much.

Qi Shengwen said, “Being close to the sovereign can be as perilous as lying with a tiger. Being in that position is like walking on thin ice. It is also not uncommon for the sky and the earth to turn upside down in an instant. Sometimes, it was just a matter of one memorial.”

Lang Yu smiled, shook his head and said, “Don’t worry. Perhaps, only one memorial is needed to crush Lord Li, but it won’t come from me.” He paused and added, “For the time being.”

Li Youde didn’t seem to try to hide Chen Hui’s identity anymore after returning to Jianbei. He directly let Chen Hui take a single room. Chen Hui felt a bit unhappy. She wanted to squeeze with Li Youde. However, thinking about, from a certain perspective, the two of them could be considered as just having determined to have a relationship. It was not good to press too hard.

…Ah, it seemed that it has turned sexual unconsciously.

Chen Hui shook her head to put those strange thoughts behind her and felt that she was a dignified little lady again. Only then did she go over and squeeze Ah Da who had brought water for Li Youde to wash up, to a side and said to Li Youde, “Lord, let this Lady Chen serve you.”

Li Youde looked once at her. He was tired after being constantly on the move for the whole day. He didn’t dispute with her. He closed his eyes and let Chen Hui wash his face. The water was lukewarm. The temperature was just right. Chen Hui wiped carefully. Her movements were gentle. Suddenly, there was a kind of feeling that the time is so well.

Before, she was secretly angry at Li Youde. Before he showed his attitude, she would not tell him that she likes him. Now, he could be considered to have shown his attitude. Should she pick a good day and tell him when they return to the capital? It was just that she didn’t know whether he would believe it. She felt that he might think that she deliberately said that to curry favor. She doesn’t want it to be like that. That would be too torturous to her. When she asked him if he liked her in the past, there was at least some distance between them. So, she wasn’t so angry when he mocked her. But if she got ridiculed after having said it sincerely, she might be furious. Presumably, only time could make Li Youde believe her. Having lived for so long together, he should know her mind and should no longer doubt it. Wasn’t familiarity breeds fondness this? Of course, other people’s days are both nouns and verbs. The relationship between her and Li Youde was probably just a noun.

After she was done cleaning for Li Youde, Chen Hui didn’t say any more things other than goodnight and went back to her room. When she was in the Xi camp, she didn’t have the opportunity to take a bath and she didn’t dare to do it there. So, after she had returned here and had the conditions, she asked Ah Da and Ah Er to fetch water for her to take a bath. At that time, their group was attacked. The things in the carriage were still there and were brought back. That was why Chen Hui had a change of clothes.

Chen Hui finally slept peacefully this night. She didn’t have to worry about the war or Li Youde causing trouble. Instead, she hopefully looked forward to a new life in the future. It was naturally a good life to have meat every day, but having someone in your life, thinking and missing him every day, looking forward to seeing him, feeling happy when you see him and cherish every minute spent with him…such days seemed to be better.
