The so-called "Wuhuan and Xiangping are unstable" was just an excuse Bai Xiaowen came up with. Other than fighting back against Yuan Shang, it was mainly to prepare for the return trip.
If they stayed in Jizhou for more than ten days, more than half of the main mission's time would have passed. It would be extremely difficult to recruit soldiers.
Bai Xiaowen's words were sarcastic, but his tone and expression were sincere.
Although Yuan Shang was annoyed, he couldn't tell if his second brother was mocking him or telling the truth.
Madam Liu was inexperienced and couldn't tell. She said with concern, "Xi-er, did something really happen in Youzhou? Those damned Hu are truly greedy by nature. The rewards your father has given them over the years are uncountable, but they're still not satisfied. "
Bai Xiaowen said, "Mother, I heard from a secret source that the Wuhuan tribe is colluding with some underground forces in Xiangping. They seem to have bad intentions. Mother, please do not mention this information to anyone else. "
"Of course." Madam Liu nodded.
Bai Xiaowen said, "I'm afraid I can't stay in Ye City for long. I have to return as soon as possible."
Madam Liu rebuked, "Since you have something to do, why do you have to be so tired? It's so hard."
Bai Xiaowen's words were as sweet as honey. "I haven't seen you for three months. I miss you, but I'm afraid you'll be worried if I don't arrive on the agreed date."
"Okay, okay …" Madam Liu now found Bai Xiaowen pleasing to the eye.
Yuan Shang felt an inexplicable sense of displeasure. He said respectfully, "It's late. Please rest early. We'll come to pay our respects tomorrow. "
Yuan Tan, who had been silent all this time, said with anger in his heart, "That's right. I'll bring my second brother and third brother to pay our respects tomorrow."
Even Madam Liu could see the discord between her eldest brother and third brother. She sighed and felt a little dispirited. She waved her hand and said, "Forget it. Xi-er, the journey is bumpy and tiring. You should rest early. Mi 'er, take care of your husband and go to bed early. "
Zhen Mi said softly, "Yes."
It was just a single word, but it was like a rolling jade bead, moving the heart.
Bai Xiaowen glanced at Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang's expressions. When they saw Zhen Mi appear, both of them were stunned for a moment. It seemed that Zhen Mi's charm could really kill anyone.
…
The Great General's Mansion occupied a large area. Yuan Xi's original residence had all kinds of pavilions, terraces, and pavilions, as well as a bamboo garden.
Li Shuyi, Cecilia, and ten elite horsemen were arranged to stay in the side rooms. Zhen Mi, on the other hand, gracefully headed to the main bedroom. She ordered the servants to tidy up the Luan quilt and prepared to share a bed with her husband, whom she had not seen for three months.
Li Shuyi secretly tugged at the corner of Bai Xiaowen's clothes with a hint of playfulness in his eyes.
"Zhen Mi has to stay calm. She's an important part of my plan!" Bai Xiaowen raised his hands in surrender. "I've already scanned her. She's a Level-8 leader. Although she's not a combat type …"
"Alright!"
Li Shuyi's cheeks were a little red. "If you want to sleep with her, then go ahead! I'm not stopping you! "
Bai Xiaowen was not fooled. He laughed and said, "Don't worry, I won't sleep with her tonight. I'm a serious person! Also, I already have plans for tonight. "
"The last sentence is the main point …" Li Shuyi complained.
Bai Xiaowen laughed mischievously.
…
"Husband, it's almost midnight. Shall I serve you to bed?" Under the candlelight, Zhen Mi's small face was rosy, which made her even more beautiful.
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said, "There's no hurry. I have something important to do tonight, so I won't be spending the night in the mansion. "
Zhen Mi was a little surprised. "It's so late …"
"There are some things that are better done at night than during the day. For example, serving you in bed." Bai Xiaowen smiled and got up. He hooked Zhen Mi's soft waist and said, "It's been three months, and I miss you very much. But work is more important. My wife, please don't take offense. "
Bai Xiaowen had no choice. He needed to rely on Zhen Mi, but if he didn't sleep with Zhen Mi tonight, what if Zhen Mi mistakenly thought that he had a lover in Youzhou? What would he do if that happened? Therefore, he had to show a certain degree of intimacy. The key was to show that he still doted on Zhen Mi. It was necessary!
Zhen Mi was so embarrassed that she lowered her head. "Husband, please be serious."
Bai Xiaowen smiled and let go of Zhen Mi. "I haven't seen my beloved wife dance for three months. Can you show me again?"
Bai Xiaowen saw through his insight that Zhen Mi wasn't a combat-type leader. Instead, she was a special rare leader! Her role was more of a support, but she was different from Qiao Rui, who was a direct support on the battlefield.
Zhen Mi's job was "Goddess Luo Dancer". She had a special skill: Feng Yi.
[Feng Yi: Passive. Zhen Mi's luck is indescribably precious. If the husband and wife's fate matches, the dragon and phoenix will sing, and the zither will be harmonious. They will soar to the sky. If the husband and wife's fate is low, the yin will prevail and the yang will decline.]
The description of Feng Yi's special skill was too vague. After Bai Xiaowen saw it, he was a little confused.
In contrast, Zhen Mi's other skills were easier to understand.
Dance, it was all about dancing!
For example, [Whirlwind Dance] was a dance that gave allies in a small area a fixed damage reduction buff for 72 hours! The smaller the number of people watching the dance, the stronger the buff effect. However, it couldn't be stacked and could only take effect on a group of people at the same time.
Another example was [Whirlwind Dance], which gave allies in a small area a long-term charm buff. The strength of the buff effect was the same as described above.
In addition, there were also [Blazing Dance], [Ecstasy Dance], and so on. Each had its own unique effects.
Zhen Mi restrained her expression and bowed. "Since my husband has important matters to attend to, I dare not entertain you with my beauty."
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said, "My dear wife misunderstood. I don't want to enjoy an ordinary dance."
As he spoke, Bai Xiaowen stood up and continued, "I'm going to Jizhou's prison tonight to meet Mr. Tian Feng and reason with him. Mr. Tian is the head of Jizhou's Julu's Tian family. I need his support. In addition, I want to pay a visit to the Zhen family. "
Zhen Mi was slightly startled. Then, she smiled like a blooming flower.
"Since my husband wants to recruit talents and achieve great things, please allow me to perform the Whirlwind Dance to help you gain your prestige."
… …
After the dance, Bai Xiaowen looked at the notification of the spirit realm's rules and the new status on his interface. He was shocked.
"You've enjoyed the Whirlwind Dance of Luoshen Dancer Zhen Mi by yourself."
"You've obtained the status of Whirlwind Dance."
[Whirlwind Dance: Your basic charm increases by 20 points. Lasts for 72 hours.]
Zhen Mi's voice sounded. "My husband, I'll write a letter to my father immediately. If you take this letter to the Zhen family, it should be easier for you to gain something."
Bai Xiaowen couldn't help but ask, "… My dear wife, why don't you ask me what great things I want to do and if they're feasible? You're giving me your unreserved support. "
"I'm just a woman. How would I know about great things? I can only do my best to support my husband." Zhen Mi smiled. "Moreover, if my husband can really persuade Mr. Tian and my father to cooperate with you … then it means that the great things my husband is planning will definitely work."
