After the Disabled God of War Became My Concubine

Chapter 189



Chapter 189

Huo Wujiu was initially pleased, but when Jiang Suizhou flipped a couple of pages without stopping, he was unsettled.

How come he didn’t ask how far was a bit far? Why didn’t he ask him how much effort he put into it? The book was indeed a piece of junk. Was it worth Jiang Suizhou’s full attention, to the point of ignoring him, the giver?

Huo Wujiu glared at the book with an unkind gaze.

The next moment, he snatched the book away again.

Jiang Suizhou thought he would throw it again, so he rushed to grab it. This time, Huo Wujiu succeeded. He effortlessly hid the book aside, stretched out his hand and pressed Jiang Suizhou into his arms.

“It’s not even dawn yet. What are you reading? You’ve got nothing to do tomorrow, right?” he asked.

Jiang Suizhou didn’t even hesitate. Both his eyes were only focused on the book Huo Wujiu hid behind him, so he replied, “It’s no big deal.”

General Huo captured the reluctance in his eyes, and the sea of jealousy in his heart stirred a huge wave.

“It’s no big deal?” His eyes sank.

Jiang Suizhou, however, stared at the book and reminded him, “Be gentle. Don’t damage it.”

The paper could not withstand the wear and tear of the years. If it was damaged and scattered in their hands, would he become a sinner in history?

This was for future generations!

He was only concerned about the national treasure thousands of years later, unknowingly igniting the fire in Huo Wujiu’s eyes the moment he heard his response.

Fine, this lousy booklet was more important than him, right?

The next moment, Huo Wujiu raised his hand, and the booklet flew in a parabola and landed on the desk next to them with a snap.

“Be gentle!” Jiang Suizhou’s heart tightened up upon seeing this.

“Got it, I’ll be gentle.”

Huo Wujiu said with fierce gritted teeth.

The next moment, he pulled the bed curtains, rolled over and pinned Jiang Suizhou to the bed.

The distance from Ye City was more than 6,000 miles away. Officials’ caravans had always been slow, getting to their destination in a month or two.

Now that summer has started, the roads would be better. After around three days, a messenger arrived to report that the troops from Northern Liang were about to cross the river.

Huo Wujiu had to send someone to meet them.

Jiang Suizhou had a discussion with Huo Wujiu. His army was stationed everywhere, and the only available one was Lou Yue. After mulling over it, he sent Lou Yue and asked him to send someone to meet them at the riverside.

Once that group of officials were stationed at various places in Southern Jing according to Huo Wujiu’s arrangement, the entire Southern Jing would become his sphere of influence.

Naturally, they had to carry things out carefully.

Therefore, with Huo Wujiu’s order, Lou Yue was specially summoned into the palace by Jiang Suizhou, and was specially instructed.

“This is a major matter. All the officials were sent from the Northern Liang, so General Lou must pay close attention to them,” Jiang Suizhou said.

Lou Yue also knew Huo Wujiu’s current situation. He was originally Southern Jing’s military commander, yet he took refuge with Huo Wujiu. Naturally, his life was tied to Huo Wujiu. The two of them were extra cautious, so Lou Yue naturally did not dare to act rashly. He nodded and said, “Your Highness, rest assured. I will be careful.”

Jiang Suizhou nodded: “Of course, I am at ease with General Lou.”

Lou Yue pondered for a moment and said, “I just have a presumptuous request.”

Jiang Suizhou said, “Just say it, General Lou.”

Lou Yue said, “Although I have always disliked Wanjun running around, but these days in Lin’an, she has indeed been detained to a great extent. Two days ago, she knew I was going out, so she’s been clamoring to follow me. I really have no choice either…”

Hearing this, Jiang Suizhou couldn’t help but smile.

Although Lou Yue was indeed a chauvinist, he was particularly soft-hearted towards Lou Wanjun. If not, he would not have cultivated Lou Wanjun’s temperament.

“Miss Lou has always had a sense of propriety. If General doesn’t want to detain her in Lin’an, just take her with you,” Jiang Suizhou said.

Lou Yue sighed: “Then thank you, Your Highness.”

After saying that, he got up to say goodbye.

Jiang Suizhou smiled: “General Lou doesn’t have to worry too much. Although Miss Lou’s nature is a bit different from ordinary girls, it does no harm. If a girl insists on living a sheltered life, it’s all because of those rotten and pedantic scholars. Since General Lou doesn’t like them, naturally you don’t need to listen to them.”

Lou Yue nodded in agreement. His words naturally didn’t fall on deaf ears.

The caravan from Northern Liang was about to cross the river, so Jiang Suizhou didn’t dare to delay him any longer. After resting for two days, the people who were to greet the officials from Northern Liang set off.

Lin’an was very close to the Great River, and it only took three to five days to march there. Another scout reported the situation back and forth. In the past few days, Jiang Suizhou had been paying attention to the news sent back by Lou Yue.

It was as if he was facing a formidable opponent, and Huo Wujiu found this a rarity.

“What are you afraid of?” He said, “They’re just some civil officials. They won’t fall into the river and drown. As long as they reach the south, what else can happen?”

Jiang Suizhou shook his head: “It’s better to be careful. So long as they haven’t landed in Jiangnan, anything could happen.”

Huo Wujiu couldn’t argue with him, so he could only go to Li Changning and ask him to add a few more calming herbs to Jiang Suizhou’s daily medicine.

Five days later.

An urgent letter was sent to Jiang Suizhou’s desk with a fast rider. When the scout entered the palace, he was already panting, and when he brought the missive up, his legs trembled weakly, and he knelt down with a plop.

“The general said this letter is urgent. Please read it quickly, Your Highness!” the scout said.

Jiang Suizhou frowned at his words and hastily fetched the letter.

When he unfolded the envelope, he recognized Lou Yue’s handwriting inside.

“The officials are all here, but the Crown Prince of Northern Liang has also tagged along.”
