Feng Ning Yan stared at Shen Ling Jue. "No …"

Without waiting for her to refuse, Shen Ling Jue took her in his arms and kissed her lightly on the ear.

"Make a bet?" Before you return to the capital, you will definitely be willing to call me 'hubby'. "

Feng Ning Yan shrunk her neck, took the jade comb, and ran out of his embrace.

"Let's bet!" If your mouth is on me, I won't call you … You have lost for sure! "

"What if you lose? How about you let me 'do it on the spot'? " Shen Ling Jue laughed.

Feng Ningyan stared blankly. She didn't think that he would actually want to gamble on this! How hateful!

"Hmph, I won't lose. I'm afraid of you!" What if you lose? "

Shen Ling Jue looked down at her and laughed sinisterly: "If I lose, I'll let you take it on!"

Feng Ning Yan unhappily scolded: "Pui! "I don't care!"

Shen Ling Jue's gaze darkened, his fingertip hooked up to her chin: "If you insist on leaving, then you cannot go back on your word. My wife, I will wait for you to obediently lie down on the bed. "

With that, he lightly dodged her flying leg and returned to the cabin with a smile.

Feng Ning clenched her teeth. "Stinking man …" Who gave you that confidence! "

The thousand li of the Jiang mausoleum had run out of thousands of sails.

One day later, Shen Ling Jue, Feng Ning Yan and their group had entered the borders of Ningnan County and disembarked the ship to take the road.

Feng Ning Yan looked at the familiar scenery and thought of her father and fourth aunt. She couldn't help but worry about them, and wanted to return home as soon as possible.

After the carriage was delayed, she and Shen Ling Jue rode their horses to Ningnan County.

The sun was setting in the west, and night had fallen. As smoke was rising from every corner of the city, Feng Ning Yan and Shen Ling Jue entered the city side by side.

From afar, the city guards saw two people riding over. They recognized Feng Ningyan at a glance and hurriedly opened the city gates. The field officer led his troops out of the city and welcomed them, shouting loudly, "The young commander-in-chief has returned! Young Marshal is back! "

Feng Ningyan listened to the soldiers' shouts, then swung her whip and whipped it. A crisp "pa" sound reverberated through the tall city gate.

"Brothers, I'm back!"

Both of them slowed down as they came to the front of the city gate.

"The Southern Army welcomes Your Highness King Yu and Princess Yu!"

Shen Ling Jue dismounted from his horse and helped up the commanding officer of the city gates. Feng Ning Yan then called for the little soldier to quickly report to the general's manor.

As the two walked into the city, the commoners came out to welcome them. Firstly, they wanted to personally see the legendary number one beautiful man in the Da Su Kingdom, Shen Lingjue. Secondly, they wanted to see Feng Ning Yan return to her female attire.

The soldiers could only lead the way, allowing Shen Ling Jue and Feng Ning Yan to slowly walk forward.

The commoners nearby were all overjoyed, as if it was New Year.

Due to the fact that Shen Lingjue did not enter the city on the day of his wedding, many commoners had only seen his true appearance today. They were all flabbergasted:

"So this is your highness, the prince of Yuwang [2]. He really does have a devastating appearance …" Eh, why is our Miss Feng married or dressed in men's clothing? "

"If Miss Feng wants to ride a horse, male attire is naturally more convenient. Compared to that, our Miss' male attire is even more handsome than Prince Yu's!"

When Shen Ling Jue heard this, his heart was elated.

"My wife, I like it when people say that you're prettier than me." Everyone says that I am the prettiest man in Da Yue, so wouldn't my wife be the prettiest girl in Da Yue? "

Feng Ning Yan couldn't help but smile. "Stop saying such sweet words to fool me. Even if you say them extravagantly, don't even think of coaxing me to call you those two words."

In front of the general's mansion, the guards had long lined up and were already a mile away. By the time Feng Ningyan and Shen Ling Jue had arrived, the commoners were all blocked by the guards.

The two of them immediately galloped over to the entrance of the general's manor. Seeing Feng Wei and Murong Yi already waiting respectfully outside, Feng Ning Yan dismounted and threw herself into her father's embrace.

"Father …" "Fourth Aunt …" She embraced her father and Murong Yi, her eyes red with emotion.

Murong Yi hurriedly reminded her, "Princess, please do not disobey. Quickly return to the side of the prince."

Feng Wei walked in front of Shen Ling Jue, lifted up his robe, and knelt down. "This subject, Feng Wei, pays his respects to Your Highness Duke of Yu, Princess Yu Wang Fei …"

Feng Ning Yan's nose turned sour. Before she could extend her hand, Shen Ling Jue had already stopped Feng Wei.

"Father-in-law, there's no need to be so courteous. Everyone in the family should pay their respects based on seniority."

As he spoke, he pulled Feng Ningyan's hand and the two of them bowed deeply towards Feng Wei and Murong Yi.

Feng Wei had never received such a great gift from Shen Ling Jue before. Seeing Feng Ning Yan being rather meek towards Shen Ling Jue, it was clear that the two of them were very close, and even King Yu was extremely respectful and filial to him.

Murong Yi smiled and said, "King Yu and Royal Consort have travelled for so many days. It's too tiring, let's quickly enter the manor for dinner."

Only at this moment did Feng Ningyan see the Du Family mixed in with the maidservants, standing there obediently with lowered brows.

"Yo, Aunt Du is here too. I didn't see her just now."

Only then did Du Family raise their heads. When they saw Feng Ning Yan, they couldn't help but shed tears.

"Since the wangfei has come back to save relatives, this lowly concubine will naturally welcome her with respect. "After wangfei entered the capital, wangfei thought about it day and night. Seeing wangfei becoming more beautiful and plump today, wangfei is truly happy."

A lowly concubine?

When Feng Ningyan heard this, she couldn't help but smile as she looked at Murong Yi.

Back then, the head of the Du Family was extremely arrogant. How could he be so humble?

It was likely that Murong Yi had taken over the affairs of the General's Estate, set up the personnel rules, and chased away the Du Family's trusted aides. Therefore, the Du Family still had to rely on the breathing of others, so they no longer dared to call themselves madams, and could only call themselves "lowly concubines".

Seeing that Murong Yi had moved so quickly, Feng Ningyan relaxed.

On such an official occasion, Ji Ying didn't have the qualifications to attend, so this meal would be eaten by Feng Wei, Murong Yi, his son-in-law and his daughter.

Only after Murong Yi had arranged for dinner did he sit down and pour some wine for Feng Wei and Shen Ling Jue.

Feng Wei saw that his daughter was doing well and thought of his niece. He asked, "There are still two days until the talent show competition. When Yan'Er returns to Ningnan, how will she be able to settle Ruo Yu?"

Upon hearing Hua Ruyu's name, Feng Ning Yan's face sank, and she looked at Shen Ling Jue.

She knew that Hua Ruyu's evil deeds would be hard for her to believe, so she didn't know how to speak up.

Shen Ling Jue then raised his cup and toasted Feng Wei, and said: "Miss Hua has now been bestowed the seventh grade palm-ink by royal father, and is serving in the imperial study, and lives in the Long Embroidery Palace of the elective talent. Royal father is rather satisfied with her, I presume she will be selected as his consort."

Hearing this, Feng Wei was overjoyed.

"I can't believe that girl has such good fortune!"

Feng Ning Yan put down her chopsticks and suddenly lost her appetite.

"Father …"

However, Shen Ling Jue suddenly pressed Feng Ning Yan's hand down, and took the opportunity to give her a piece of food.

"Why should we mention unrelated people on a family's day of reunion? My wife, let's eat. "

Feng Ning Yan was startled, she knew that Shen Ling Jue wanted to stop her from revealing Hua Ruyu's true colors. She looked at Shen Ling Jue in puzzlement, but kept her words in her stomach.

Murong Yi could tell that Feng Ningyan had something to say, but he was still unable to say it out loud. He knew that something bad might have happened to Hua Ruyu in the capital.

She smiled and said, "Yan'Er, the dishes that you loved to eat since you were young were all placed today. Also, the girl that your parents buried under the tree when you were born had opened the altar today as well. If you have something to say, you can say it later. Today, let's just talk about our families, okay? "
