Chapter 38: The Revengeful Female Character in the Political Strategies (8)

Xu Nian cried bitterly. She didn’t know how long she had been locked in the room. Zhao Zhen always looked at her gloomily when he came back from morning every day.

"Husband, I want to go out for a walk. Can you accompany me?" After finishing lunch, Xu Nian felt that she couldn't go on like this.

She was the one who had a hard time because she went against Zhao Zhen, but Zhao Zhen was fine and looked as energetic as if he had taken yin to replenish yang.

"Where do you want to go, Madam?" Zhao Zhen put down his bowl and chopsticks, with a faint expression on his face.

"Just take a walk around the mansion. Last time I saw many flowers in the garden were about to bloom." Xu Nian admitted that he was a coward and only dared to make these simple requests.

Seeing Xu Nian's eyes full of expectation, and wanting him to accompany her, Zhao Zhen nodded and said, "Let's go!"

Finally he left the room, and looking at the things outside, Xu Nian was so excited!

This flower is beautiful, this tree is growing well, and the fish in the water are really fat.

Even though he didn't meet anyone along the way, Xu Nian didn't think there was anything wrong.

Zhao Zhen held Xu Nian's hand and walked in this extremely familiar mansion, feeling rare peace and tranquility in his heart.

"Madam, the Xu family has been in trouble recently. Would you like your husband to help them?" Zhao Zhen thought it would be better to let Xu Nian know about this.

He didn't know how much Xu Nian cared about the Xu family, but if the Xu family became weak, and he stood idly by today, Xu Nian would blame him in the future if he found out.

"Encountering trouble?" Xu Nian was surprised. The disaster talisman began to take effect.

"Minister Xu has been impeached in the court for several days in a row. Emperor Xi was biased and has ordered Minister Xu to go home and wait for orders." Zhao Zhen's words were too conservative. What about going home and waiting for orders? That meant he could lose his official hat at any time.

Xu Nian: "How is the Xu family?"

"The Xu family has been having a lot of bad luck recently. They have closed several shops due to quality issues with the goods. The eldest son of the second branch of the Xu family had a fight with the son of the Minister of War over a prostitute. As for your brother, it is said that he is addicted to gambling, and the debt collectors have come to the door of the Xu Mansion to ask for money." After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, he found that Xu Nian was not sad at all, but had a smile on his face.

Zhao Zhen suddenly realized: "Madam, do you have any grudge against the Xu family?"

"After you got the letter of severance, someone from the Xu family came to the general's mansion to look for me, right?" Xu Nian was not afraid that Zhao Zhen would think she had a bad character. Instead, she nodded and admitted it generously.

"They did come, but I asked them to go back." Zhao Zhen was obsessed with Xu Nian during that period. Whenever someone from the Xu family wanted to see her, he would drive them away without even thinking twice.

"They didn't come to me to ask me to return to the Xu family. They wanted me to die for their reputation!" Xu Nian sneered.

"What? How could you? You left the general's mansion and returned to the Xu family that day." Zhao Zhen quickly figured it out.

"The Xu family is doing well now. The reputation they cared so much about is gone, and the days of luxury are almost over." Xu Nian had a smile on her cold face, but she didn't know if it was the original owner's emotions that made her tears fall.

But the happiness in her heart made her feel so relaxed.

"Madam, don't cry. You don't like the Xu family, so I won't mention it in the future." Zhao Zhen wiped away Xu Nian's tears and coaxed her softly.

"Zhao Zhen, you are the only one I have." Xu Nian took the opportunity to act pitiful.

Since you have to spend your whole life with the male protagonist, you can't just give him the cold shoulder all the time. You have to act coquettishly and pitifully occasionally to make him happy so that you can maintain long-term harmony.

She didn't want to be locked up by Zhao Zhen again because of a disagreement.

"Don't cry, ma'am. You are all I have."

……

Zhao Zhen was actually very busy. Apart from accompanying her to eat and sleep, Xu Nian never saw him at other times.

The maid who was looking after her saw that she was unhappy, so she tried her best to tell her some interesting stories in the capital.

But interesting things always come to an end, and Xu Nian becomes bored again.

Thinking that she had never read the storybooks of this era, her curiosity immediately arose, and she immediately asked the maid to buy all the popular storybooks in the capital.

Leaning on the couch, Xu Nian flipped through the storybook. The lyrical content even came with illustrations.

Xu Nian glanced at her maid. She was sure that what she bought was a storybook, not some picture.

"Madam, what's wrong?" The head maid saw Xu Nian looking at her without saying anything, and felt very nervous, afraid that she had done something wrong and made the madam angry.

"It's nothing, Cuicui, go make a cup of tea." Xu Nian put his eyes back on the storybook and continued reading.

Wow! This painting is so vivid. It would be even more perfect if the people were more beautiful.

Wow! It turns out it can be done this way, really cool.

Hmm! Is this an action that a human can do?

After Xu Nian finished reading the storybook, he put it down, picked up the tea that had already gone cold beside him and drank it all in one gulp.

"Cui Cui, put these storybooks away and hide them. I will read them next time."

It was almost time and Zhao Zhen would be back soon. She couldn't let him know that she was reading the storybook.

"Okay, ma'am." The head maid Cuicui took the book away and put it away.

As soon as the book was put away, Zhao Zhen pushed the door open. He walked straight to Xu Nian and picked him up.

"Zhao Zhen, what are you doing?" Xu Nian put her arms around the man's neck and said coquettishly.

"The border is in danger, and Emperor Jing ordered me to go to war. I'm worried about leaving you alone in the general's mansion." Zhao Zhen was mainly worried that Xu Nian would stay in the general's mansion waiting for him to come back.

He was afraid that after the war, his wife would be gone.

"Wait, you're going to take me to the battlefield?" Xu Nian remembered that there was a rule that women could not be brought on marches and battles.

"Madam, I can only fight the war with peace of mind if I take you with me." It was almost written on Zhao Zhen's face that he was afraid Xu Nian would run away.

"Okay, but have you prepared clothes for me?" Xu Nian and Zhao Zhen both understood that Xu Nian would not be able to go openly and would have to disguise himself.

"It's ready. The clothes will be delivered soon. Let's eat first." Zhao Zhen let go of Xu Nian, and Cuicui just came in with food for the two of them.

Eat without talking and sleep without talking.

After dinner, clothes were delivered. Xu Nian changed her clothes and Zhao Zhen combed her hair.

Although Xu Nian changed into men's clothes and put on a hair crown, she knew it wouldn't work when she saw the cold yet charming face in the mirror.

So under Zhao Zhen's gaze, she took out all her rouge and powder and started fiddling with her face.

The fair skin on her face was covered up, the thin eyebrows were thickened, the rosy lips were painted white, and then various modifications were made to her face. Xu Nian turned from a cold and beautiful girl into a sickly young man.

"Ma'am, you have a good skill. Is this a disguise?" If Zhao Zhen hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have been unable to tell whether the person in front of him was a man or a woman.

"It's not a disguise, it's makeup." Xu Nian smiled faintly. What she had was at most makeup. The truly amazing makeup technique could really change one's face.

Zhao Zhen didn't ask any more questions after hearing this, but said, "Madam is ready, let's go!"

"Okay." Xu Nian thought to himself that it seemed that the war was really urgent this time, since Zhao Zhen was asked to set off overnight.
