There was a subtle atmosphere in the room, with the occasional scent of tea wafting into the air.

Bai Wenxian was thirsty, so he didn't care whether the tea was good or bad. He just picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp, then said generously, "Another cup!"

On the other hand, Yan Kaiyu picked up the teacup very elegantly, took a sip, savored it slowly in her mouth, and then sipped the tea in small sips, feeling relaxed and happy.

It was estimated that the time Yan Kaiyu took to drink a cup of tea was enough for Bai Wenxian to drink a whole pot.

Bai Wenxian was the first to break the subtle atmosphere in the room, pointing at the tea and saying, "Brother Yan, look at our tea. The tea leaves are of the same variety, and the water used to make the tea comes from the same well, which means that we are actually drinking the same pot of water."

Yan Kaiyu immediately understood what he meant and responded with a smile: "General Bai, you drink yours and I drink mine, we won't interfere with each other and we can each get what we need. Going back to the source, this fragrant tea, you and I must not forget each other."

The two smiled knowingly and understood each other.

Bai Wenxian stood up with a smile on his face, bowed and said, "Goodbye, Bai Mou has gained a lot today, so it's not in vain."

He also did not forget to send his best wishes to Shangguan Zimeng: "Sister-in-law, I wish you two a long and happy life together and may you have a son soon."

"General Bai, take care."

Yan Kaiyu saw him to the door and went back into the house.

Shangguan Zimeng was confused and asked curiously, "Husband, he's leaving now? Isn't he staying for dinner? It seems like you guys didn't talk about anything, just tasting tea and talking about tea."

Yan Kaiyu picked up the teacup, drank the tea in it, and said with a smile: "My dear, we are not just tasting tea and discussing tea."

"Tell me about it, so I can learn more."

"Really want to hear it?"

"Of course! I was very curious. You just chatted for a few minutes and then said goodbye happily. I felt so magical!" Shangguan Zimeng hugged him with a look of expectation, "Please, please."

"kiss Me."

She complied with his request and gave him a sweet kiss.

He said, "One more time."

What followed was her fist that was close at hand.

"Stop it. I'm scared. Is it not okay for me to say it? Do you really need to use your fists?"

"Hurry up and say it! If you don't accept my toast, I'll punish you."

He sat on a chair and pulled her to sit on his lap, which made it more comfortable for them to talk.

"We were actually discussing tea just now. This tea is like the current Cambodia. We can share it and each take what we need without delaying each other."

She understood immediately and said with sudden enlightenment: "Husband, I understand. On the surface, you two may seem incompatible, but in fact, you have already formed a tacit alliance in secret."

"My beloved, I want to correct you. Zi Ling and Ze Huang are not and cannot be in an alliance. We are only temporarily joining forces for the greater good at this stage. As long as this benefit is gone one day, Zi Ling and Ze Huang will go to war as usual."

Shangguan Zimeng remembered that this was a point of knowledge, and she said she understood: "National interests are above all else, husband, am I right?"

"Absolutely correct, it must come before everything else."

"Ah, you guys are so calculating. I admire you."

Yan Kaiyu kissed her face again and again, then held her in his arms and said, "My beloved, if I hadn't planned it, how could I have protected you? If I hadn't planned it, how could we have dealt with the King of Yue? If I hadn't planned it, we would all have died without a burial place."

Shangguan Zimeng hugged his neck affectionately, gave him a sweet kiss, and said softly: "Husband, don't worry and do what you want. I can protect myself and will never hold you back. If necessary, I will kill the enemy with you!"

He touched her head and smiled, "Silly girl, we men are still here, so it's not your turn to kill the enemy."

She knocked on his head and said unhappily, "What's wrong with us women? Don't look down on us. Have you ever heard that women are as good as men? My mother was once the first female general of this dynasty. I want to emulate her and become the second female general of this dynasty in the future."

He looked at her adorable and ambitious appearance and pinched her cheeks: "Little fool, you are quite ambitious."

"That's right! Don't underestimate me!"

Shangguan Zimeng probably didn't expect that in the near future, her words would really come true. She would ride a horse and take up a spear, go into battle with her husband, and really realize her wish of becoming the second female general of this dynasty.

"My dear, aren't you worried that Bai Wenxian will secretly team up with Cambodian Wen to trick us?"

"do not worry."

"why?"

"Since the great defeat three years ago, Zehuang's strength has been greatly reduced. Even if the two families join forces, no matter how good Bai Wenxian is at leading troops, he still has to consider whether Zehuang's troops can compete with us. After weighing the pros and cons of this risky approach with unknown results, he will never choose it."

Yan Kaiyu explained this reason and continued to explain another reason: "What's more, Bai Wenxian can definitely think of what we can think of. He is also worried about whether we will join forces with Cambodia. He will definitely not dare to do such a thing that will not make up for the loss."
