After rebirth, the Prime Minister's wife married the living devil

Lin Yanyu was awakened by the touch on her face. She opened her eyes and saw only darkness. The candle on the bedside table had burned down to the last flame.

I was still a little confused when I just woke up, and only realized what was going on when I was kissed on the mouth.

She gasped, grabbed the black shirt on Li Yanqi's shoulders, and said in a muffled voice, "You should go. Mother Wang will be getting up soon."

Li Yanqi was reluctant to do so, but thinking about what he had to do today, he forced himself to tear it off her, lifted the tent and started to tie his belt.

He put the hidden weapon that he had placed on the dressing table last night back into his sleeve and said, "I'm leaving first. I'll pick you up at 15:30 tonight."

Lin Yanyu hooked the curtain with one hand, looked at him reluctantly, frowned and said softly: "Okay, I'll wait for you."

Li Yanqi took half a step forward, but couldn't help himself, so he turned around, lifted her chin, and gave her a long kiss.

"I'm really leaving."

He just took one step.

"Wait a moment!

Li Yanqi turned back with shining eyes, coughed pretentiously, and said righteously: "I know you can't bear to leave me, you can only kiss me once more at most, and twice is the limit."

Having said that, without any hesitation, he quickly turned around and lowered his head, and the kiss was halfway through when Lin Yanyu covered it with her hand.

She blushed: "Lin Yanxia is also in He Zhiyuan's hands. She helped me several times from Chongzhou to here."

Although it didn't help.

"I don't know what she's been through. She's in a very miserable state right now. Mom and Dad have been worried about her. If it's convenient, take her with you tonight."

Li Yanqi has an advantage, that is, when he is under the bed, as long as it is a request made by Lin Yanyu, if he can do it, he will not ask too many questions, but just say: "Okay."

The last ray of candlelight went out, and a bit of dark blue appeared outside the window.

After Li Yanqi left, Lin Yanyu put down the tent and took another nap.

He didn't get up until Mother Wang came over to serve him breakfast.

She showed a resigned calmness all day long. She ate an extra bowl of rice, took medicine promptly, and even went out for a walk in the garden when she was bored.

Mother Wang was standing nearby and couldn't help but said happily, "If you ask me, isn't that how women's lives are? Madam is pregnant now, and it's not a long-term solution to argue with adults. Being angry won't be good for the child, right?"

If it were in the past, Lin Yanyu would have been annoyed long ago, but at this moment she just looked at the flowers in the garden and smiled, neither agreeing nor refuting.

Mother Wang was still happy in her heart, and thought to herself that she would tell the adults the good news when she got off work.

After helping Lin Yanyu to sleep at 2:15 pm, she went to guard the second gate, hoping to take credit for the event. She was ready to report the matter to He Zhiyuan as soon as he returned.

But after waiting for half an hour, He Zhiyuan still didn't come back from the office.

Mother Wang sighed inwardly that the adults were working hard. The bigger the pot, the more rice needed to be put in it. She twisted her sturdy body and went back to the main room unwillingly.

She blew out the candles in the outer room one by one and looked into the inner room.

But she found it was pitch black inside. She clearly remembered that she had left a small candlestick at the bedside.

Mother Wang was suspicious. Could it be that the lady blew it out because it was too dazzling?

On second thought, that shouldn't be the case. The green tent is made of the finest silk and the candlelight is dim, so it shouldn't disturb Madam's sleep and it will also be convenient when she gets up at night.

For no reason, her heart sank and she called out tentatively.

"lady?"

Mother Wang took the last lit candlestick in the outer room, quickened her pace, walked to the bunk bed, and called out again with a louder voice.

"lady!?"

She suppressed her panic and stepped forward to open the curtain.

The bed was empty and there was no trace of the girl.

With a clang, the candlestick in Mother Wang's hand fell to the ground, and the last bit of light went out.

She ran out of the main room in panic, stumbling and shouting, "Oh no! Oh no! Hurry, hurry up and tell the master, the lady ran away again!"

It was no use for Mother Wang to shout as loudly as she could.

At this time, Lin Yanyu was wrapped in Li Yanqi's arms and was riding a horse at full speed, taking her to the west gate where she almost escaped last time and where the defense was the weakest.

Lin Yanyu lay in his arms, listening to the steady heartbeat, and asked, "Is there really no problem?"

"Will He Zhiyuan find out and chase after me?"

Li Yanqi rubbed her soft hair with his chin and said with a sly smile, "Tsk, don't worry, unless this bastard doesn't want to pursue a career in politics anymore, even if he knows, he will have to let me go."

Lin Yanyu was puzzled and looked up at his bright eyes. "What...did you do today?"

"Haha, go!"

Li Yanqi laughed triumphantly and slapped the white horse under him.

The horse's mane fluttered in the wind, and in the night, it ran towards the west gate even faster, with dust and mud splashing under its hooves.

As the sound of horse hooves clattered, Lin Yanyu heard his wanton laughter and became even more puzzled.

Li Yanqi tightened his arms, lowered his head to look into her eyes, and said with a smile: "You have stayed in my house for a few days, so I have to show my appreciation by giving you a big gift, right?"

"…What gift?"

"I have buried several hundred kilograms of kerosene in the warehouse under his jurisdiction. King Cheng and old Xiahou are about to go to war. I don't believe he dares not to save the food and grass, but instead comes here to seek death."

Lin Yanyu's eyes suddenly widened and she looked at him in surprise.

"So, don't worry. I've asked Xigui to bring Lin Yanxia out in advance. We'll meet at the west city gate later."

Li Yanqi pressed her furry head.

Lin Yanyu followed his strength and lay back in his arms. Although Li Yanqi spoke with certainty, for some reason, she felt uneasy in her heart.

He Zhiyuan is no longer the gentle and refined scholar he used to be.

After spending a few days together, she realized how stubborn and crazy He Zhiyuan was now.

With his intelligence, he would definitely be able to guess it.

If it had gone forward, he might have given it up for the sake of his career, but now… she felt vaguely uncertain.

Moreover, this would only make him hate Li Yanqi even more.

Qingzhou is his territory, if Li Yanqi really falls into his hands.

Lin Yanyu shrank back for a moment, becoming even more frightened.

She reached out and hugged the thin waist of the person behind her, urging: "Let's go back to Chongzhou quickly, I miss home."

Li Yanqi felt the strength around his waist and also felt her emotions, and patted her back soothingly with the hand holding the whip.

"Don't be afraid, I'll take care of everything. I'll take you home now."

As he spoke, he squeezed the horse's belly hard, and the two of them stopped talking and galloped towards the city gate.

A quarter of an hour later, they arrived at the west gate.

The three men were already waiting under the willow tree opposite the west gate.

Seeing the two of them, he immediately came over to greet them.

"Brother, sister-in-law."

Lin Yanyu hadn't seen Ma Xigui and Chen Ermu for a long time, and couldn't help feeling very close to them. She smiled and nodded to greet them.

"Thin ghost, Ermu."

The moment Lin Yanxia saw them, she quickly ran over, bowed to Li Yanqi, and looked at her sister with bright eyes.

Li Yanqi turned his horse's head and raised his chin towards Ma Xigui.

"Okay, if you have anything to say, we can talk later. Let's get out of the city now."

Ma Xigui grabbed Lin Yanxia's collar and mounted the horse without saying a word, and Chen Ermu followed closely.

Lin Yanyu was a little dazed. Her dark eyes looked around at the few people and she turned back to look at Li Yanqi in disbelief.

"We, we...are we leaving the city like this?"

"if not?"
