Happy Spring Every Year

Chapter 166 I'll Be Your Weakness

The commander of the Imperial Guards, Wen Chengye, received orders from Emperor Sheng and went to the back mountain with his men and Jiang Xun to look for someone.

At this time, Shen Jiasui was sitting on a tree in the back mountain, staring at the moon in the sky in a daze.

She had decided to go into the back mountain tonight on a whim. Firstly, she wanted to finish the day's play with Ning'er, and secondly, she wanted to...

"Miss Shen!"

"Miss Shen!"

Suddenly, bursts of shouts were heard in the forest. Although they were still far away, the forest was quiet and they could be heard clearly.

Shen Jiasui suddenly came to his senses, immediately stood up with the help of the tree trunk, and looked towards the source of the sound.

The terrain here was higher, so she could actually see clusters of warm light scattered in the woods. Someone was looking for her with a torch!

Shen Jiasui's eyes lit up, he cleared his throat, and then took a deep breath and responded: "Someone come! I'm here!"

The light in the distance first stagnated, then quickly shrank and quickly came towards Shen Jiasui.

Seeing this, Shen Jiasui immediately jumped under the tree and landed steadily on the ground.

Amidst the constant calls of "Miss Shen", Shen Jiasui suddenly fell to the ground with his clothes on, rolled several times, then stood up and ran towards the source of the voice.

Wen Chengye was holding a torch and walking side by side with Jiang Xun, at the front of everyone.

Just as he was leaving the hall, Eunuch Fushun conveyed the emperor's order, asking him to pay more attention to Lord Jiang's behavior.

Wen Chengye glanced sideways at this moment, and felt that Lord Jiang, who had always been calm and composed, seemed to have lost his composure tonight, and even his steps were extremely hurried.

As soon as they entered the woods, everyone shouted, and after a moment, Miss Shen's voice seemed to be heard from far away.

Before he could even react, Lord Jiang didn't even take the torch, but turned around and ran into the dark forest.

Wen Chengye couldn't help but feel secretly curious at this moment, wondering what kind of reaction from Lord Jiang the emperor wanted to see.

At this moment, footsteps were suddenly heard from the front, and then a figure broke into the light of the torch.

The person who came in had disheveled hair, stained face, wrinkled clothes and looked disheveled.

At this moment, she came over panting, obviously having experienced a lot of twists and turns, but there were no tears on her face.

As soon as she saw them, joy crept up her eyebrows and her eyes looked bright.

In just a moment, Wen Chengye nodded secretly.

After all, she is a woman from a military family. It is rare that she remained calm even though she was shocked.

"Master Jiang!"

Shen Jiasui saw Jiang Xun at a glance and immediately shouted with joy.

"Miss Shen!"

Jiang Xun's heart trembled, and he hurried forward, blocking the view of others.

Wen Chengye saw Jiang Xun step forward and completely block Shen Jiasui, so he signaled his men to turn around, and he continued his businesslike manner:

"Master Jiang, since Miss Shen has been found, let's go back."

Jiang Xun's eyes never left Shen Jiasui's face. His fingertips moved under his sleeves and he turned around and said:

"Commander Wen, could you please leave a torch behind? I know the way home and will personally escort Miss Shen back to the inn."

The news of their marriage proposal had already spread throughout the capital. Wen Chengye also understood what was going on and immediately handed over the torch in his hand, saying in a deep voice:

"Since that's the case, Lord Jiang, please be careful on your journey."

"go!"

At Wen Chengye's command, the imperial guards quickly followed him away. The sound of their footsteps gradually faded away, and soon even the light of the torches could no longer be seen.

Jiang Xun turned around and saw Shen Jiasui looking up at him honestly with his head slightly raised. He called out with a guilty conscience:

"Axun."

If Jiang Xun had a thousand words to say just now, he was speechless when Shen Jiasui looked at him with such eager eyes.

"Year after year..."

He called out softly, seemingly helpless yet doting.

"Are you injured?"

Shen Jiasui hurriedly shook her head, glanced at her soiled dress, and said with a smile, "I just rolled on the ground by myself, I have to pretend."

Jiang Xun shook his head slightly, reached out to pick the dead leaves from Shen Jiasui's hair, then reached into his arms and took out a snow-white handkerchief.

"Wipe your face first."

As Jiang Xun spoke, he leaned forward slightly, moved closer to Shen Jiansui's face, and used a handkerchief to wipe the stains off her face.

There was a sudden silence all around.

In the darkness of night, the dancing flames on the torches created a patchwork of light and dark around them.

Shen Jiasui raised her head slightly, and the light of fire flickered in her eyes, as if there were two small flames hidden in them.

She saw that Jiang Xun's expression was very focused, his eyes fixed on her cheek without blinking, and his hands moved very gently, brushing her skin with a handkerchief, making her feel tingling.

Shen Jiasui felt that the moment was very wonderful, and in her heart she didn't want to interrupt, but her cheek was really itchy, so she couldn't help but whispered:

"Axun, it's a little itchy."

Jiang Xun's movements suddenly stopped, and he looked up to meet Shen Jiasui's eyes.

Perhaps it was because the torch was too close, or because Jiang Xun's gaze was too intense, but Shen Jiasui suddenly felt his face getting hot.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Jiang Xun gathered the handkerchief in his hand and gently pressed it forward again, but this time, it landed lightly on Shen Jiansui's lips.

Shen Jiasui's eyelashes trembled, and she felt Jiang Xun's fingertips gently pressing her soft lips through the thin handkerchief, and then stroking and caressing them, lingering.

She was overwhelmed by this sudden intimacy, and a blush instantly spread from her cheeks to her neck, causing her to lower her eyebrows in panic, but she still couldn't bear to step away.

"Year after year..."

Jiang Xun called out softly, pursed his lips slightly, but the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.

If Shen Jiasui looked up at this moment, he would see his red ears, curved eyebrows, and the throbbing and desire in his eyes.

It was quiet all around, with only the surrounding woods and the torches in their hands as witnesses of this hidden and ambiguous relationship.

Jiang Xun was sensible after all, and slowly withdrew his hand after a moment.

After being rubbed, Shen Jiansui's thin lips now looked as if lightly touched with cinnabar, rosy and delicate.

But she finally got her "freedom" and instinctively bit it out of shyness.

When Jiang Xun's eyes fell upon this scene, he felt a surge of heat sweeping through his body instantly, and the desire in his heart continued to rise, even more so than when he was drugged.

His face flushed, and he quickly took a few steps back, turning his head away and not daring to look again.

Shen Jiasui had no idea of ​​the twists and turns in Jiang Xun's mind. She pursed her lips, her face burning, but she couldn't hide her shyness.

Feelings are wordless, but they grow wildly once you get close to each other.

Gulu gulu——

In this hot atmosphere, an inappropriate voice suddenly sounded

Shen Jiasui immediately covered his stomach with his hands, looking embarrassed.

hungry.

She didn't even have time for dinner and ran to the valley.

Jiang Xun took a series of deep breaths to suppress the heat surging in his lower abdomen. He reached into his arms and took out another handkerchief, then quickly walked to Shen Jiasui.

"I know you must not have eaten anything."

Shen Jiasui was surprised when he heard this, and saw Jiang Xun opening the handkerchief layer by layer, revealing several exquisite pastries.

"It's hard to take care of other things, so Sui Sui will fill her stomach first."

Jiang Xun smiled and handed the pastry to Shen Jiasui.

Shen Jiasui didn't expect Jiang Xun to be so thoughtful. He was very touched and took the cake and started eating it immediately.

Jiang Xun lowered his eyes and saw Shen Jiasui eating seriously. He felt distressed and could not hide his love for her. He whispered:

"Sui Sui, you don't have to do this for me."

Shen Jiasui looked up upon hearing this, the corner of his mouth raised, "I knew that nothing could be hidden from Axun."

Today's opportunity to overthrow King Xiang is rare, and the plan must be carried out.

But Shen Jiasui knew clearly that no matter whether he succeeded or failed today, Emperor Sheng would definitely notice that it was Jiang Xun who was stirring up trouble behind the scenes.

Since ancient times, even if a minister has the ability to rule the world, he cannot escape the control of the emperor, otherwise... he will not last long.

Therefore, as a minister, Jiang Xun needs to reveal his flaws and weaknesses appropriately, so that Emperor Sheng feels that Jiang Xun is still in his control.

Shen Jiasui knew that he had not discussed the plan of entering the forest tonight with Jiang Xun. Given Jiang Xun's feelings for him, he would also be worried and anxious from the bottom of his heart.

And only Ning'er knows his whereabouts.

She had agreed with Ning'er that she could only reveal her whereabouts in front of Emperor Sheng. In this way, Jiang Xun's anxiety would naturally be seen by Emperor Sheng.

It was just that Ning'er was wronged and he had to bear the stigma of "bullying" her, but it was also to clear the relationship between the two of them in front of outsiders.

After thinking for a while, Shen Jiasui swallowed the last bite of cake, raised his head and smiled:

"Axun, I have thick skin and a decent brain, so let me be your weak spot!"
