Kick out the general as soon as you are reborn

Liu Yanyan also knew that there was nothing to pick in these wild mountains and wilderness. She sighed softly, picked up the scripture at hand and read it carefully.

Yuzhu bowed her head and left. When she went out, she met housekeeper Liu who was carrying vegetarian food. Yuzhu stepped forward and said, "Housekeeper Liu, I will just bring it in. The young lady is reading scriptures. It is better not to disturb her."

Butler Liu nodded and said, "Okay, you take it in for the young lady. I'll take the master's vegetarian meal to the room and serve him there."

Yuzhu then took the vegetarian meal with a smile, and couldn't help swallowing as she lowered her head, then turned around and pushed the door open to enter the house.

Liu Yanyan heard the creaking sound of the door opening, looked up at Yuzhu who was carrying the vegetarian meal, and put down the scriptures in her hand, "Yuzhu, you've worked hard. You must be tired after climbing the mountain for so long today."

Yuzhu said with a smile, "Miss, I am not tired. This is what I should do. I am not suffering."

Liu Yanyan took the earthenware bowl handed to her by Yuzhu, picked up the bamboo chopsticks, and said, "You should eat too. It's not good to be hungry later. I can eat by myself, so I don't need you to serve me. You can eat quickly."

Yuzhu struggled for a while and her stomach growled. She swallowed hard, picked up the ceramic bowl, squatted at the foot of the bed, and began to eat in big mouthfuls.

Liu Yanyan ate in small bites. Seeing Yuzhu like this, she remembered that she didn't see her eat today. She said distressedly, "I neglected it today. You must eat on time in the future, understand? Isn't the food in your hands and that of Butler Liu? Why don't you eat it?"

Yuzhu lowered her head in shame and said, "Miss, I was worried that I didn't bring enough things and that Miss would be hungry. It's okay for me to go hungry for two meals, but Miss and Master can't go hungry."

When Liu Yanyan heard this, she looked helpless, with a trace of heartache in her eyes. She said distressedly, "Don't do this in the future. Since you are out, Butler Liu and the others must have made arrangements. How could there not be enough food? Besides, with so many guards, there is enough food even for hunting. Don't think about it in the future. I, your lady, can protect you from worrying about food and clothing for the rest of your life. You are getting older, and you have a lot to think about!"

Yuzhu smiled and said, "I am stupid, thank you, young lady. I will rely on you from now on, take care of you and be good to you for the rest of my life."

Liu Yanyan smiled faintly and said, "If you don't rely on me, who can you rely on? Eat quickly and stop talking nonsense. It seems you are starving." After saying that, she ate in small bites. After eating half of it, she couldn't eat anymore and gave it to Yuzhu.

Yuzhu had just not eaten enough, and she was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She took the bowl and chopsticks and started eating with big mouthfuls. She finished eating soon, touched her stomach with satisfaction, and burped embarrassedly.

Liu Yanyan covered her lips and smiled, watching Yuzhu take the dishes and go out, she stood up and brightened the oil lamp a little, sat on the bed and read the scriptures. As she read, her originally restless mood calmed down a lot.

When Yuzhu came back, Liu Yanyan had already fallen into a deep sleep. Yuzhu tucked the quilt around the young lady and said, "Young lady, you must be too tired after climbing the mountain today. That’s why you went to bed so early and slept so soundly that you didn’t even notice me coming in." She climbed onto the bed, leaned against the foot of the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

midnight

Regent Zhou Yanze knew in the evening that Yanyan lived in the yard next door. His heart kept pounding like it was going to jump out of his chest, and his heart was beating like a drum, "This is the closest I've ever been to Yanyan." It was not until midnight that he could no longer suppress his emotions, so he put on his nightgown and jumped onto the roof.

Several guards also followed in night clothes, and they knocked out the secret guard sent by His Majesty and placed him next to the roof.

Regent Zhou Yanze jumped down lightly, walked to the window, opened it, flipped into the room, groped his way to the bedside, and knocked Yuzhu unconscious.

Looking at the sleeping Yanyan, I approached gently and couldn't help muttering to myself, "Yanyan, you are so beautiful. I really want to hide you. You are so beautiful. Every time I see you, my heart beats faster. I know I can't live without you in this life. Every time you can give me a different surprise, making me fall for you again and again."

Zhou Yanze looked at Liu Yanyan's beautiful face and smelled the faint plum blossom scent on her body. His heart beat faster. He covered his chest and took several steps back before he stopped. "No, I must propose marriage. I must go and marry Yanyan with three matchmakers, six betrothals and eight sedan chair bearers. Only then can I be with Yanyan. I must not desecrate her or wrong her." He stood in the dark for a long time, struggling internally. He took a deep breath, took a few steps back, pushed open the window, jumped out, and returned to the front yard.

In the yard, with a worried look on his face, he said to several guards, "You guys take turns to stay in the dark and protect Yanyan. Don't let her be in any danger or be discovered, otherwise you will be beheaded."

Several guards bowed and said "Yes, Your Highness", and then they disappeared from sight with a whoosh.

Zhou Yanze watched them leave before turning back to the house. He secretly made up his mind that he would make Yanyan his princess in the future. However, the emperor was in poor health and the situation was unclear. It was not a good time for him to marry. He could not let Yanyan be involved in this dangerous vortex. It was too dangerous. He could not let Yanyan take the risk.

Zhou Yanze walked to the table, took the teapot, poured a cup of cold tea, picked up the teacup, and drank the cold and bitter tea. Only then did he suppress the urge to marry Yanyan immediately and calm himself down a little.

The next day was foggy. Butler Liu held a lantern and knocked on the door of the wing room.

Liu Yanyan rubbed her eyes and stood up to open the door. Yuzhu woke up at this time, rubbed her sore neck and said, "I'll go open the door, don't move, in case there's danger!"

Liu Yanyan chuckled, "So many guards, are they just for show? It should be that Daddy asked the butler to come and wake everyone up."

Yuzhu rubbed her neck, put on her shoes, walked out, stopped at the door, and said in a low voice, "Who is it? Disturbing my sweet sleep so early in the morning."

Butler Liu then said, "The master asked me to wake up the young lady. If I go too late, I won't be able to see her. I have to wait another day."

Yuzhu then said, "Housekeeper Liu, the young lady has woken up. I will go and tell her now. You should go back first. It is very cold outside."

Butler Liu then said, "Okay, you go and take care of the young lady." Then he turned and went back to the house.

Liu Yanyan looked at Yuzhu and said with a smile, "Yuzhu is much more cautious today."

Yuzhu rubbed her neck, walked closer and said, "Miss, please stop teasing me. I will help you wash up."

Liu Yanyan stood up and changed into a mint green outfit with lifelike bamboo leaves embroidered on the cuffs.

Yuzhu took the jade hairpin and made a simple snake bun for the young lady.

Liu Yanyan brushed her hair with her hands and nodded with satisfaction, "Yuzhu's hands are still so skillful."

Yuzhu smiled and said, "Miss, I don't deserve such praise." Then she turned and walked out of the house, and came back with a basin of hot water.

Liu Yanyan took the hot towel and handed it to Yuzhu after she finished washing.
