"You can do anything, watch monkeys, go to the theater, go shopping..." Shi Ru said enthusiastically, "We couldn't go out on the street openly before, but now we are finally a couple, we have to make up for what we haven't experienced before, right? "
Wen Shichu saw the expectant look on his face and nodded: "Okay."
Shi Ru was immediately overjoyed and couldn't help but kiss Wen Shichu's cheek: "Madam, you are so kind!"
Wen Shichu was in good physical condition and had returned to normal a long time ago, so seeing that Shi Ru was so interested in going out for fun, he went shopping with him.
They held hands openly and openly along the way, not shying away from the strange looks of others.
"Oh, the world is really deteriorating and people's hearts are not as old as they used to be! A man and a woman are actually holding hands in broad daylight. How can it be so appropriate?!" Those conservative and feudal people behind them suddenly saw the hands held by Shi Ru and Wen Shichu. As if seeing something unpleasant, frowning and criticizing.
"Old man, shut up! This is General Shi. General Shi just got married yesterday. What's wrong with taking the bride out to play today? If you can't stand it, just don't look at it! What are you talking about?" The old woman next to the old man glared. He retorted with his eyes closed.
"General Shi? General Shi can't do this. Even between husband and wife, they should observe etiquette outside. How could he do such a shocking thing?" The old man kept chattering.
The old lady rolled her eyes and said, "What's wrong with a newlywed couple holding hands after just getting married? You just got married to me, and when we were having dinner at home, didn't you secretly hold my hand under the table? Why do you look down upon young people doing this now?"
The old man immediately blushed at what she said: "How can it be the same? You and I were at home, and no one else knew, but we were on the street, it's completely different!"
"Shut up!" the old lady sneered, "That's because you don't have the guts!"
After hearing this, she heard the conversation between the old couple behind her and couldn't help laughing. Shi Ru took her hand and shook it, saying, "Are you envious? When we get to their age, we will also go to the street to watch them. The newlyweds hold hands, okay?"
"Okay." Wen Shichu glanced at him with bright and charming eyes and said.
Shi Ru's heart suddenly felt as if honey had flowed through it, and it was sweet.
The old couple behind him, who were like happy enemies, had already gone away. Shi Ru still held Wen Shichu's hand and walked as if no one else was around. Some people on the street recognized him. After all, people in this capital have blue eyes. There was only Shi Ru, not to mention the fact that he was full of momentum. Even though his expression was gentle towards Wen Shichu, his whole body was intimidating.
No one dared to get close to him. They only dared to whisper about the news they saw today after he was far away.
In a restaurant on the street, the Minister of Rites looked at Shi Ru and Wen Shichu. He couldn't help but stroked his beard and said, "I didn't expect that Shi Ru, the god of death, could have such a gentle side towards women. It's really shocking." Surprise.”
The eldest prince leaned against the window, looked at their voices with complicated eyes, and said, "That must be the woman he likes. So many people wanted to marry him before. Xiaojiabiyu, a young lady, and even my father, the most beloved one." He refused the Ninth Princess without hesitation. I thought he would find some kind of fairy, but I didn’t expect that he would find an older palace maid!"
Although Shi Ru has now retired from the front lines of the battlefield and handed over his military power, no one can shake his status as the number one general based on his unparalleled achievements.
What's more, there are very few generals available now, and the Prairie King in the north is starting to make moves again. It is likely that he will invade the border again this autumn, and it may even be not just a border invasion, but an invasion.
Therefore, the young and capable Shi Zhu, even though he seems to be free now, everyone knows that if the Prairie King really invades the border, he will still be the main force resisting foreign enemies.
The eldest prince wanted to win over such a person even if he looked down on his low-priced bloodline. Therefore, he once wanted to marry a cousin from his mother's clan to Shi Li in order to bring the general on board his ship, but But Shi Ru didn't give him any face. He directly said that he was not interested in his cousin and told him not to bother him. His cousin was so embarrassed that he didn't dare to go out for more than half a year.
In addition to the eldest prince himself, as well as his ambitious younger brothers, other princes and nobles all wanted to marry Shi Ru, or give him women even if they didn't marry. Unfortunately, Shi Ru never agreed, and even took off his clothes and climbed into his bed naked. Women can throw them out the door without hesitation.
So over time, everyone thought that he was no longer interested in women, but unexpectedly, he suddenly found a wife who no one had expected.
The eldest prince was in a complicated mood. He had naturally investigated Wen Shichu's identity. Before she left the palace, she was a host of ceremonies in the Queen's Palace. She was unknown and very ordinary. But after leaving the palace, she unexpectedly became famous and fascinated Shi Ru. , directly became the general’s wife.
The eldest prince couldn't help but praise her for her "good tricks"! I think she is very smart. She was not top-notch or outstanding when she was in the palace, probably just to get out of the palace smoothly.
Everyone has their own ambitions. A woman like her has clear goals and does not want to be a concubine. After all, if she had wanted to, she would have hooked up with the emperor when she was in the Queen's Palace, but she didn't.
It wasn't until he left the palace that he captured Shi Li in one fell swoop. Even though Shi Li was from a bad background, it was enough for her to be an old palace maid.
The eldest prince thought that Wen Shichu was very scheming, but he didn't know that Wen Shichu was actually just interested in seeing and lusting after him. He just fell in love with Shi Ru's good looks. How could he have so many complicated thoughts?
"Uncle, since Shi Ru is married, let's start with his wife. His wife is just a palace maid, so she shouldn't be as difficult to conquer as Shi Ru." The eldest prince said to the Minister of Rites, who was his uncle.
"Okay, I'll let your cousins and sisters-in-law make friends with her." The Minister of Etiquette agreed. In his opinion, although Wen Shichu had great tricks and made Shi Ru fall in love with her, she was still just a woman. Thinking about it, it's not too difficult to win over her.
Wen Shichu didn't know that she had been targeted, or that she was someone with malicious intentions who wanted to use her to drag Shi Ru down.
She was having a lot of fun with Shi Ru now. She watched the sideshows with the people. She was so happy that she rewarded her with some money. She also went to the teahouse to listen to Mr. Shu's stories and cheered with the guests...
The two of them don't care about their status, nor do they care about worldly rules. They play however they feel comfortable. They play crazier than ordinary people and spend a lot of money, but they are happy.
