In the eyes of countless people, Chen Kan took Chang Ning into his arms.
"Yeah~"
Zhu Yuelan's shy voice sounded, attracting everyone's attention.
"You are going to die, there are so many people."
Chang Ning buried her little head in Chen Kan's arms, her voice as low as a mosquito.
"It's none of their business if I hug my wife!"
Chen Kan protected his wife domineeringly, which immediately made a lot of aunts laugh.
Chang Ning buried his head tighter.
As you can imagine, she didn't dare to go out for a long time.
Chen Kan simply picked her up and then looked at the crowd of onlookers and said loudly:
"My wife is rather thin-skinned, so I will take her home first. In the next three days, there will be a grand banquet in the Marquis' mansion, and I hope you all will support me."
After saying that, he strode into the Hou Mansion with Chang Ning, who was already extremely embarrassed.
As for the three little kids with stiff faces, they had long been ignored by Chen Kan.
Fortunately, the three of them were very used to being ignored like this, so they didn't show any disappointed expressions. Instead, they once again cupped their hands towards the neighbors and said, "Everyone, there is a banquet in the Marquis Mansion. Please support me."
After getting everyone's approval, he returned to the Marquis Mansion with his hands behind his back like a young adult.
At this moment, in the Marquis Mansion, Chen Kan had already stepped over the brazier and began to take off his heavy armor under the service of several servants.
Daming's fish scale armor is very heavy, weighing more than twenty kilograms.
But after Chen Kan went deep into the grassland, he never took off his armor again.
For more than half a year, Chen Kan had long been accustomed to sleeping with his armor on. Now that he suddenly took off his armor, he felt indescribably relaxed.
He even feels like he can kill a cow with one punch.
After taking off their armor, the maids began to add perfume, dried flower petals and other things into the huge bathtub.
After sending the servants and maids away, Chen Kan got into the bathtub naked. He hadn't taken a bath for more than half a year. Just a casual rub on Chen Kan's body could remove a thick layer of dirt-like stuff.
His hair was also caked in patches of felt, and Chang Ning almost used a whole bar of soap to straighten Chen Kan's hair.
If it was Chang Ning who had just gotten married, she would have complained to Chen Kan about how bad it smelled, and would have cleaned the dirt off Chen Kan's body while expressing disgust.
But now, Chang Ning only had a deep look of heartache in his eyes.
Especially when she saw those ferocious scars on Chen Kan's body, her heart felt as if something had hit her, and it was difficult to even breathe.
Chen Kan lazily leaned in the tub with his eyes closed. Suddenly, a drop of warm water fell on his face.
He looked up and saw that Chang Ning had already burst into tears.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Chang Ning covering her mouth to prevent herself from crying, Chen Kan was a little confused.
Hearing this, Chang Ning shook his head, but the tears in his eyes had already rolled down uncontrollably.
Chen Kan was at a loss for a moment, so he had to stand up, hold her in his arms and coax her softly.
"What's the matter? Even if my husband comes back, there's no need to cry for joy. We've only been separated for half a year, not half a lifetime."
The more Chen Kanyue said, the more Chang Ning sobbed in his arms.
This sudden sad episode made Chen Kan very distressed.
After coaxing him for half an hour, the water in the bathtub became a little cold, and Chang Ning finally calmed down.
Then he gently held the newly healed scars on Chen Kan's body and murmured: "These wounds, are they painful?"
Chen Kan shook his head and smiled: "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Upon hearing this, Chang Ning's eyes turned red again. After a moment, she stopped sobbing and whispered: "My husband, you have worked hard fighting for the country."
Chen Kan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "It's not hard on me, it's hard on the soldiers who fought to the death on the grassland."
After Chen Kan finished speaking, Chang Ning exclaimed: "Husband, the water is cold."
She had been crying just now, but now that the water was cold, she hadn't washed Chen Kan clean yet.
Seeing her at a loss, Chen Kan smiled and said: "It's okay, then change the water in the basin. Anyway, it won't be clean in one go."
Chang Ning nodded obediently, calmed down his emotions, and then asked his servants to come in and change the water.
After changing a bucket of water, Chen Kan continued to lean lazily on the edge of the tub, enjoying Chang Ning's head massage.
When he was in a vegetative state, Chang Ning often massaged his whole body like this.
Later, he went to plot against the White Lotus Sect and never enjoyed Chang Ning's massage again.
"lady!"
Chen Kan suddenly called him.
Chang Ning paused her hands and asked with concern: "What's wrong?"
Chen Kanjian smiled and said, "How about Madam give your husband a full body massage?"
"Ah, are you here?"
"Then go to the room?"
Chen Kan asked back, and Chang Ning's little face looked like a ripe apple, making people want to take a bite.
The next second, Chen Kan reached out to stop Chang Ning's shoulder.
"Plop~"
The next second, there was a high splash of water in the tub.
"Damn it, I haven't taken off my clothes yet~"
Chang Ning's body was wet with water, outlines the faint curves, but she was far more shy than angry about Chen Kan suddenly dragging her into the bathtub.
Chen Kan reached out to help him untie the dragon buckle on his clothes, and kissed Chang Ning's angry little face.
Then, Chang Ning's face turned redder.
"Woo~"
"No~"
The maids guarding the door heard some indescribable noise coming from the bathroom, and they all stayed away from the courtyard in a humorous manner.
I took a bath, changed three buckets of water, and took a bath for two hours.
Under the admiring gazes of a group of maids, Chen Kan walked to the dining hall refreshed.
The three little guys had already been waiting in the dining hall to prepare for the meal. Now that the host Chen Kan had arrived, the dishes were served to the table like flowing water.
"Teacher, where's my aunt? Why don't you wait for her to eat together?"
Zhu Zhanji glanced outside the door several times, but never saw Chang Ning.
Chen Kan gave him a big chicken drumstick without changing his expression and said calmly: "She is eating in the yard today."
Zhu Zhanji nodded in understanding, then stopped worrying, lowered his head and concentrated on dealing with the chicken legs in the bowl.
The fact is that Chang Ning's legs are weak and she is thin-skinned. Naturally, she doesn't want the servants in the palace to see her embarrassment.
Not to mention that there were three little guys outside, so she was reluctant to come out.
Zhu Zhanhe took a few mouthfuls of rice, then raised his head and asked, "Teacher, do you know what happened in the capital?"
When Zhu Zhanhe mentioned this, Hua Shi and Zhu Zhanji suddenly paused in their movements.
Noticing the expressions of the three of them, Chen Kan said calmly: "Master already knows, you don't have to worry."
Zhu Zhanji frowned and said, "My disciple has already sent a letter to Grandpa Huang and his father. I wonder if Grandpa Huang has released Master now?"
Chen Kan put down his chopsticks and said slowly: "It doesn't matter, the changes in the capital have nothing to do with you, but it does matter whether you have fallen behind in your studies during my absence."
Chen Kan didn't want to talk to them about the plots in the court. They were still too young, and it was not a good thing for them to realize the sinister nature of people's hearts early.
So he changed the subject.
Sure enough, when he heard the word "schoolwork", Zhu Zhanji's face turned bitter.
Seeing Zhu Zhanji's expression, Chen Kan could basically guess how they spent their time while he was away.
Needless to say, with Zhu Zhanji's temperament, it would be strange not to go crazy.
However, Chen Kan did not say anything to blame. Instead, he changed his tone and asked, "Li Yao, did you leave any message for your teacher before going to Nanjing?"
Zhu Zhanji thought for a moment, and then asked: "Teacher, are you talking about the prince of North Korea?"
"Otherwise, who else would be Li Yao?"
Chen Kan rolled his eyes at Zhu Zhanji. This kid was crazy. Before he left, he specifically told him to be optimistic about Li Yao, but he never thought that Li Yao would find the opportunity to go to Nanjing.
Zhu Zhanji was shocked when Chen Kan glared at him like this.
Then he looked at Chen Kan cautiously, made a gesture of running away, and asked: "If the student says that Li Yao is dead, will you hit me?"
"died?"
Chen Kan was stunned for a moment, then his face darkened: "Did you do it?"
Zhu Zhanji quickly shook his head: "If it wasn't me, how could it be possible? How old is the student? How could he be capable of killing the crown prince of Joseon?"
Chen Kan frowned and said: "But the news we got was not that he escaped from the Marquis' Mansion overnight and got on the boat to Nanjing. How could he die?"
"I don't know. After the student got the news, he was already dead. It is said that the boat he was on collided with other ships on the canal and sank. But the student can swear that he had absolutely no intention of killing anyone."
Zhu Zhanji had already made plans to run away when the situation turned bad.
But after Chen Kan heard the news, his expression calmed down.
After a while, Chen Kan said calmly: "Let's eat!"
Seeing that Chen Kan was rarely angry, the look on Zhu Zhanji's face became even more vigilant.
He clearly knew that this teacher was really unreasonable if he was unreasonable.
But Chen Kan didn't seem to see the alert look on his face. He just ate some food, put down his chopsticks and got up and returned to the backyard.
Chen Kan already knew who was responsible for Li Yao's death.
After all, there are only a few people who know that Li Yao is in Beijing.
As for Nanjing, Chen Kan had already cut off all channels to Nanjing when the North Korean envoy was still in Liaodong, so this matter could not be the work of Jin Yiwei.
Zhu Di, the only one who knew about it, had also written a letter himself. The letter stated that he would handle everything well, so he was even less likely to attack Li Yao.
Then, among the remaining people, if it's not Zhu Zhanji, it can only be Chang Ning.
Zhu Zhanji never dared to lie in front of him, and there was no need to lie, so Chen Kan did not go into details.
He definitely approves of what his wife does with both hands and feet.
Is it possible that he still wants to verbally criticize his woman?
What a joke!
Back in the backyard, Chang Ning hid in her room to eat alone. When she saw Chen Kan pushing the door in, she couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.
Then he asked: "Do you know everything?"
