Xie Yuxiu was indeed very tired. He rushed back in such a hurry this time. Perhaps something had happened again?

Yu Jinzhi sighed, there was no peace. The ominous premonition in her heart gradually deepened. It was definitely not something that could be easily resolved if he could conceal his identity and return in a hurry.

During the months he was away, the court had already been in chaos. Although the clans checked and balanced each other, it was inevitable that some people wanted to control all the power in their own hands.

Even the Su family, which originally came from a poor family and has only begun to gain a foothold in recent years, has come to the center of power in the past few months.

Yu Jinzhi sighed and thought, forget it, since Xie Yuxiu has already rushed back, there must be a solution, so why should she worry about it?

Thinking of this, Yu Jinzhi slowly closed her eyes again. She originally thought that she would not be able to sleep tonight, after all, there was another person beside her, and it was Xie Yuxiu.

But in fact, she slept very soundly. This was the most relaxing sleep she had felt in the past few months.

In the past, even if she slept well at night, she would still feel tired and lack energy the next morning. But this time was different. When she woke up, she felt that she was in much better condition.

But she was still shocked when she woke up, because there was another person in front of her. Why was Xie Yuxiu still lying on her bed? !

"Why are you still here?" Yu Jinzhi couldn't help but push him away because Xie Yuxiu had already held her in his arms.

Xie Yuxiu was not satisfied at all. He had been thinking about this person for so long, and now he finally had her in his arms, how could he just give up like that?

"It's still early, let me sleep for a while, okay?" Xie Yuxiu actually started to act like a spoiled child, especially when he had just woken up in the morning. His voice was heavily nasal, which made people blush unconsciously.

Yu Jinzhi wanted to push the person away, but she was not as strong as the other person.

"Just lie down with me for a while, Zhizhi. I'm really tired." After Xie Yuxiu said this, Yu Jinzhi slowly stopped what she was doing.

The number of times Xie Yuxiu said he was tired... was actually not very many. And it seemed that he was not saying it deliberately to sound pitiful, but that he was really very tired.

Because there was no light last night, he didn't see clearly what the person in front of him had become.

But now he saw the man in front of him clearly. He seemed to have changed a lot in the past few months. Even the stubble around his mouth had grown and was a little darker.

But even if all of this was ignored, there was one thing that Yu Jinzhi noticed at first sight. That was that Xie Yuxiu's face...had two more scars.

One of these two scars is deeper, and the other is lighter. They should have been left at different times. Both are on the right side of the face, one is slightly below the corner of the eye, and the other is right at the cheekbone. The scab has fallen off, but the mark is still there.

Yu Jinzhi's breath stopped. After all, he went to the battlefield, so he must have suffered a lot of injuries in these few months, right?

She looked at Xie Yuxiu's hands again. The hands restraining her waist were still so powerful. However... his hands were unexpectedly much rougher and had scars on them.

Yu Jinzhi's emotions became complicated again. It couldn't be said that she was heartbroken, but when she saw these changes, she still had an inexplicable feeling in her heart.

Whenever Daddy came back from the battlefield, he would always have scars all over his body. This was something that a general could not avoid.

Everyone cares about life and death, but only generals and soldiers are not qualified to discuss their own life and death.

Being able to stay here is a skill and also luck.

If you can't stay, it's also luck and honor...

Daddy once said that as a general, he would rather die on the battlefield than waste his time in Beijing.

Every wound left on his body must be a mark of his glorious military achievements, rather than a trace of being condemned by the world or framed by villains.

Yu Jinzhi didn't intend to push him away anymore. She just lay quietly beside him. Even when Xie Yuxiu fell asleep, he kept holding her, as if he was protecting some precious treasure.

Xie Yuxiu slept very soundly, but Yu Jinzhi might not know that in the past few months, Xie Yuxiu had not had a complete sleep.

Qingyu saw that her master was still asleep early in the morning, so she wanted to come in and call for help. However, she was stopped by the secret guards who suddenly appeared just as she reached the door.

Qingyu was startled, but fortunately she recognized the person immediately.

"You guys..." Qingyu was stunned.

"Your Majesty is inside. Do not disturb him or make any noise." said the secret guard.

What? His Majesty is back, and he's in the room now? Then...he secretly stayed there again last night?!

Qingyu was shocked and retreated. His Majesty came back just in time. Could he have heard about the princess and Yu An?

But regardless of whether it was because of this incident, she felt more relieved after His Majesty came back. Although she had not forgotten what Xie Yuxiu had done before, she still trusted Xie Yuxiu more than others.

No matter what happened in the past, Qingyu saw everything about Xie Yuxiu's attitude towards Yu Jinzhi now.

As a bystander, she truly believed from the bottom of her heart that their Majesty would protect her princess at all costs.

As for Yu An... since His Majesty has returned, he should be dead soon. Qing Yu was happy when she thought of this. She had been eager to deal with Yu An immediately. After all, he was still a nuisance even though she knew there was something wrong with him.

When Xie Yuxiu woke up from his sleep, Yu Jinzhi had been lying quietly in his arms for a long time.

"Zhizhi..." As soon as Xie Yuxiu opened his eyes, he saw the person in his arms. He felt extremely satisfied and hugged her and rubbed her.

Yu Jinzhi: "..."

"I really like you." Xie Yuxiu's sudden confession made Yu Jinzhi couldn't help but jump.

"I'm sorry for making you stay with me for so long. Are you hungry?" Xie Yuxiu continued.

Is this still what he is thinking about now?

"I just haven't seen you for too long, and I can't bear to let you go. I feel at ease with you by my side, so I slept longer." Xie Yuxiu explained.

Yu Jinzhi didn't say anything, and Xie Yuxiu sat up from the bed, picking up the little girl in his arms.

In fact, when Xie Yuxiu saw that Yu Jinzhi did not resist him, he didn't know how happy he was.
