The Marquis Is Innocent
Chapter 40:

Xiao Qiao did not have the chance to put on her shoes and almost jogged to meet him. After a few steps, she saw Wei Shao’s figure had turned in from behind the screen. The two of them met, and when they looked at each other, they coincidentally stopped in their tracks, separated by a distance.

The reason why she was attentive, apart from being unconsciously infected by Mrs. Xu and Zhu’s mood of farewell before going to war, she was also grateful.

When Wei Shao entered, his eyes fell on Xiao Qiao’s face. His eyes were unblinking, with a kind of unconcealed intention. Xiao Qiao was uncomfortable by his gaze. When she saw he was only looking and not talking, she looked for words and said softly, ” Husband is back? Did you go to your Grandmother and Mother-in-law’s place? Grandmother and mother-in-law should be waiting for you ……”

“I did.” Wei Shao’s eyes still looked at her the same way, answering confidently.

Xiao Qiao bit her lip: ” Are you hungry? I still have ……”

Wei Shao stared at her snow-white teeth biting her red lips in a delicate manner, and suddenly took a few steps toward her. Before she could finish her sentence, he picked her up.

Xiao Qiao’s feet hovered. He carried her straight to the bed and put her down. Wei Shao followed, kneeling on the edge of the bed, gazing down at her.

“I’m not hungry.”

He murmured, pressing down to kiss her mouth.

……

The Marquis will leave for war tomorrow morning, and he sends a message he will return later to pay his respects one by one. Therefore, not only the north house and east house but also the servants on Xiao Qiao’s side are not resting.

When he finally came back, Chun Niang and the other two maids came in to serve as usual, but they watched the master hug and kiss the lady on the bed under their noses, and they were shocked. Chun Niang quickly reacted and turned around to see the eyes of the two maids behind her widen and dumbfounded. She coughed lightly and signaled for them to go out. The maids reacted, their hearts beating and blushing, hastily bowed their heads and hurriedly retreated.

Chun Niang was the last to retreat, afraid of disturbing the two people on the bed, lightened her footsteps, and gently closed the door.

……

Xiao Qiao was pinned to the pillow and kissed by him. At first, he kissed her on the mouth. After a while, he moved to her cheeks, nose, eyelids, and mouth again.

Xiao Qiao’s lips were closed at first, then he forced them open, sucking on her tongue as deeply as he did last night and not letting go. She closed her eyes and let him kiss her. She felt breathless again, subconsciously whimpering and shaking her head to struggle.

Wei Shao let go of her mouth. Both hands cupped her face gasping for air: “Don’t worry, I have arranged to help Yanzhou ……”

Xiao Qiao’s eyelashes trembled. She slowly opened her eyes. His face was just above her own face.

Xiao Qiao hummed, “I knew it ……”

Her cheeks burned, and she knew her cheeks must be red.

Wei Shao smiled with pleasure and gazed at her again, his eyes bright and unusual.

“The army departs at dawn. I still have to check the generals, and not many hours left ……”

He said again.

Xiao Qiao kept her eyelids downcast. When she heard him say this in her ear, she understood the meaning of his words. She hesitated, put her hands on his shoulders, and pushed him to sit.

Wei Shao was unwilling but still obeyed and sat. He realized she was undoing his clothes. His heart was beating in his chest, and he was about to crash out of his chest with excitement.

He has never been so obedient as this moment, looking down to see her unbuckle his belt and take off his clothes piece by piece.

The two of them were finally almost done with their clothes and sat on the bed on their knees. Xiao Qiao saw he was not moving. His eyes only lingered on her body. Although she had been naked in front of him before, for some reason, this time seemed to be different. She could not help but feel shy. She crossed her arms in front of her chest to cover, but he raised his hand to remove it.

Wei Shao’s gaze fell on her delicate breasts for a moment. He closed his eyes, and the knot in his throat rolled a little. He opened his eyes, bent his face, and kissed her.

……

The curtain fell.

Xiao Qiao closed her eyes and felt the power implied in this young and powerful man’s body that was pressing on her to bring her a huge shock.

His movements were without any haste. Actually, it was not uncomfortable, she could feel he seemed to be treating her differently tonight. Therefore, she tried to relax as much as possible to accommodate him.

Xiao Qiao closed her eyes tightly. Her body subconsciously tensed up to resist the foreign object when she suddenly felt her earlobe held by him and heard him whisper with a suppressed voice: “…… I can’t stand it …… tell me if it’s hurt. …… don’t kick me in the face ah ……”

Xiao Qiao seemed as if she wasn’t ready for anything at all, and he let out a muffled grunt, and the matter naturally happened to come.

Her body finally reacted after a brief delay, feeling the inevitable pain.

Fortunately, he seemed aroused and finished much faster than Xiao Qiao expected, within a few strokes.

However, Xiao Qiao’s forehead still had a layer of cold sweat from the pain, and both legs seemed to be floating in the clouds, and she was a little dizzy. It took a while to get over it. When she opened her eyes and turned her head, she saw he had a glum face, like he couldn’t accept it.

Xiao Qiao’s own pain is still burning hot, but her character does not change. Once she saw his expression, she actually laughed with a “snort.”

As soon as she laughed out loud, she knew it was going to be a disaster. As expected, Wei Shao’s eyes were fierce. He raised his hand to grab her leg and pulled her. He rolled over and pressed her heavily.

Xiao Qiao soon felt he was up again aggressively. She panicked. He lowered his head to kiss her mouth again. Xiao Qiao shook her head and said it hurt. But Wei Shao was no longer as tender as in the beginning. He bit her mouth hard, she was on the verge of tears, and the action of his hand was also rough.

Xiao Qiao regretted in her heart, tightly closed her legs, whimpering and struggling. But Wei Shao did not let her go and tangled on the pillow. A servant’s voice outside came: ” Is the master inside? The Madam waited for the master, stayed awake all night, and had a pain in her heart. She sent this servant to come to visit.”

Wei Shao paused. Sᴇaʀᴄh the N0vᴇlFirᴇ.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Xiao Qiao was greatly relieved. Suddenly, she felt something was wrong.

When he returned, she asked him if he had been to the north and east houses, and he clearly said he had gone to visit them.

Listening to the tone of the east room’s servant, he seems to have not been there.

But with the lesson just now, she learned a good lesson. When he stopped, she stopped resisting, did not dare to push again, and lay motionless.

After a while, Wei Shao got up from her and began to put on his clothes.

Xiao Qiao pulled the quilt to cover her body and asked him softly at his back: “Mother-in-law is not feeling well. Should I go with you?”

Wei Shao did not respond. After he finished dressing, he said, “You can sleep. There is no need for you to go.”

Xiao Qiao said oh. She lay on the pillow and looked at him. She thought he was going to leave, but he stopped. He turned his head to look at her, sat on the edge of the bed, and leaned down.

Xiao Qiao remembered she had accidentally offended him again and wondered what he wanted to do. She subconsciously pulled the corner of the quilt and stared at him.

“Your nickname is Man Man?”

Wei Shao’s face was pressing low, and suddenly he said this.

Xiao Qiao was stunned and nodded her head.

“Why didn’t you tell me before?”

“You …… didn’t ask …….”

Wei Shao looked at her, suddenly smiled, stretched his hand under the quilt, and squeezed her breasts with some flirtatiousness.

“Go to sleep!”

He drew his hand, got up, and left.

This time he was really gone.

Xiao Qiao panted out a breath. As she lay lost in thought, Chun Niang came. She folded the quilt and mumbled in a low voice: “I’ve never seen such a person being an elder …… why would there be a reason to call the master away at this kind of time ……”

She suddenly paused, her expression surprised.

Xiao Qiao looked along her line of sight.

The quilt was stained with some of her blood.

Xiao Qiao’s face was hot for a while. Seeing that Chun Niang had returned to her senses and looked at her in surprise, she pulled the covers over her head.

……

Mrs. Zhu did not close her eyes all night, and now she is leaning against the bed. When she hears the sound of Wei Shao’s footsteps approaching, she closes her eyes and hums softly.

Wei Shao went to her bedside and saw her face was waxy and haggard. On the way here, the servant who called him said the Madam had difficulty sleeping at night these days, and during the day, she was less energetic. His displeasure at being interrupted in the middle of his fun immediately dissipated. He leaned over and asked.

Mrs. Zhu opened her eyes, struggled to sit up, and said: “I’m fine. It’s just a chronic illness. It’s not going to kill me. Don’t worry, son.”

The Old Jiang beside her is still unable to walk. Another servant brought the pills. Wei Shao brought water and served Mrs. Zhu to swallow the pills. He helped her to lie down and sit beside her.

Mrs. Zhu said, ” I was feeling a little uncomfortable just now. The servants made a fuss and called you to come. My son, you don’t blame me for being nosy and disturbing you?”

Wei Shao said, ” Mother’s body is the most important. How dare I? Besides, there is nothing serious.”

Mrs. Zhu showed her relief: “When will your army leave? I waited all night long, lest you still hold a grudge against me for my confusion last time and leave without saying goodbye ……”

Wei Shao said: ” Mother, don’t think nonsense. I was just a little busy some time ago. Not only my Mother but I also rarely visit my grandmother’s place. How can I dare to be angry with Mother?”

Mrs. Zhu showed her relief and held Wei Shao’s hand: “Then I am relieved. Son, you’re going to war tomorrow. I know you are blessed by heaven. The night before I gave birth to you, I saw a golden dragon circling on the roof. I knew you would be extraordinary ……”

Wei Shao heard her mention this ‘so-called golden dragon omen’, which should be her dream or blurred eyes, and patiently let her ramble on. A few moments later, the medicine she had taken effect, and she closed her eyes. He gently took her hand out of his palm, covered it with a quilt, and got up. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zhu’s eyes snapped open, grabbed his hand tightly, and shouted: “Qiao girl is bad luck! “Qiao girl is evil! Qiao’s daughter is evil! She is coming to my house to harm people!”

Her hand suddenly seemed to surge in strength, clutching Wei Shao’s hand and not letting go. Wei Shao hurriedly reassured her. Then Mrs. Zhu’s eyes closed as if she had fallen asleep again.

Wei Shao sat beside her for a long time and saw she was breathing evenly and seemed to have completely fallen asleep. He got up and went outside. After ordering the servants to take care of her, he goes out. He stood at the fork in the road and walked a few steps in the direction of Xiao Qiao, turned his head to look at the east, hesitated, and turned around and went to the north room.

Mrs. Xu knew her grandson would go out earlier than usual. She couldn’t meet him last night, so she only took a short nap, and now she’s up. As expected, he arrived within a few moments.

Over the years, the scene of sending her grandson off to war has been repeated many times. But this time, Mrs. Xu knew the meaning was different.

This is a duel between the two biggest powers in the north. If her grandson won, he would become the lord of the north and a step closer to his ambitions.

Wei Shao bowed to his grandmother and drank a cup of wine poured by Mrs. Xu. Mrs. Xu personally escorted him outside the house and said with a smile, ” Let your wife help you put on your armor and lead the strong sons of my Wei family to the battle! I am waiting for the victory of my grandson!”

Wei Shao watched Mrs. Xu’s figure on crutches fade away before turning around and entering the west room.

……

After Mrs. Zhu called Wei Shao away, Xiao Qiao didn’t sleep either. Knowing he would return to put on his armor, she called for water. She got up and went to the bathroom to be served by Chun Niang and cleaned her body.

Chun Niang thought she had already made love with the master. She didn’t expect to see the redness this time and was surprised. She asked the question, but Xiao Qiao shut up and didn’t respond, and when she asked again, she pouted at her. Chun Niang knew she won’t say anything, so she gave up. Xiao Qiao came out after putting on her clothes, asked the maid to come in and do her makeup, and in a moment, Wei Shao returned.

The armor was heavy. Xiao Qiao and the maids served him to finish dressing. The door of Wei Manor was wide open. Outside the door, the torches were like fire dragons shining like daylight as the great general Li Dian led his soldiers to meet the Marquis.

The low and majestic sound of war horns and the sound of ‘must win in war’ of the soldiers faintly reached the room from outside the door.

Xiao Qiao helped Wei Shao fasten the last piece of lock on the side of the battle armor shoulders, withdrew her hand, and looked up at him.

He is very handsome. When he wears his bloodstained and old blood-colored battle armor, a murderous aura flows out of him.

Xiao Qiao took a step back and said, “My husband will win the war.”

Wei Shao’s expression returned to his usual dignified, and he nodded. He wanted to say something but didn’t. He looked at her, grabbed the sword on the table, turned around, and walked out of the room.
