The Hidden Beauty

Chapter 71 Red sleeves add fragrance
Yu Feng held the sword in front of Qin Zhao and shouted, "How dare you! How dare you be so arrogant!"

Qin Zhao's forehead was covered with sweat at this moment, and he knelt down in fear: "Please forgive me, sir. I dare not do it. It's just... just..."

He naturally knew that he didn't have the courage to block the governor's wife's way, but Miss Wen was inside at the moment.

Miss Wen was specially presented to the governor by the prefect. If the governor's wife goes in now...

Jiang Shiwan guessed his plan to some extent and walked in.

"Madam Governor..."

Yu Feng put the hilt of his sword against his neck and gritted his teeth: "Shut up!"

When Jiang Shiwan passed by the banquet hall on the cabin, he heard the lively conversation inside and stopped.

"Thanks to the governor's advice, I have been enlightened. This glass of wine is in honor of the governor."

Meng Tingzhou's voice: "I have been traveling a lot these days, so I am not able to drink. I apologize for the inconvenience."

"It's natural to be tired from traveling all the way from the capital to Yangzhou. Miss Wen Yan, you should serve the governor closely and help him relieve his fatigue."

"Yes, my lord."

Listening to the voice inside, Yu Feng saw that Jiang Shiwan did not have any strange expression.

"Ma'am, do you want to come in?"

Jiang Shiwan shook his head: "It's getting late, I'll take Ah You to rest first."

After she left, Yu Feng collected his thoughts for a moment, pushed the door open and walked in: "Commander-in-chief..."

Meng Tingzhou was resting with his eyes closed. A beautiful and charming woman was massaging his temples behind him. She did not stop when she saw someone coming in.

Wen Yan only glanced at Yu Feng who came in and asked softly, "Commander-in-chief, are you satisfied with my strength?"

"Very good." He opened his eyes and asked Yu Feng, "What's the matter?"

"Reporting to the Governor, the young master has returned."

"understood."

Yu Feng wanted to say something, but when he saw Pei Qing looking at him, he bowed and walked out.

After they walked out of the door, Pei Qing pulled his sleeve and said, "What are you doing?"

Yu Feng shook off his hand: "I should be the one asking you what's wrong? The wife of the governor came back but was stopped by the prefect and almost couldn't get in. Just wait and see how I deal with him!"

Pei Qing frowned: "Did you do it?"

"Just now, the Madam and the Young Master were here, so I couldn't do anything."

"Don't do it." Pei Qing warned, "The governor has told us to be polite to Xu Yanshi, the governor of Yangzhou."

At this time, Xu Yanshi's voice came from inside: "Wen Yan is the most famous talented woman in Yangzhou. If the governor doesn't mind, keeping her to sing and paint every day can be regarded as a good story of a red-sleeved lady."

Yu Feng frowned and looked at Pei Qing: "Don't tell me the governor will keep her? He feels very jealous when his wife is with Song Huaizhi, isn't he the same?"

Seeing that he was filled with righteous indignation, Pei Qing curled his lips and asked, "Are you loyal to your wife now?"

"I wholeheartedly support the young master, so I naturally have to protect his interests." Yu Feng said confidently, "I would like to nip in the bud any signs that might affect the young master."

Pei Qing believed this. Yu Feng was the typical loyal and brainless type.

He patted his shoulder and said, "Since the young master has gone to rest, you should also go back to your room. Remember, don't act rashly."

"But the governor..."

"Yufeng, be careful with your words!"

Pei Qing returned to the banquet, only to see the woman named Wen Yan sitting next to Meng Tingzhou, waving a round fan, whispering and smiling from time to time. Seeing Meng Tingzhou so pleased, Yangzhou prefect Xu Yanshi finally felt relieved.

No matter how cold-hearted a man is, he will always drool when he sees a beautiful woman.

If you don't feel moved, then the woman is definitely not your type.

This Wen Yan is his most reliable trump card, and he has never failed.

So what if he is the Left General? He just needs a woman.

Jiang Shiwan fed Ayou some easily digestible rice porridge, washed him and coaxed him to sleep before letting Yunshang and Xueying help him bathe and change the medicine.

Yun Shang applied the medicine very carefully, making her almost unconscious of the pain. She said in a low voice, "Madam, there is something I don't know if I should say."

"Since you have your thoughts, you can say it."

"In my opinion, the Yangzhou prefect sent a girl here with bad intentions. Madam should have gone in just now to see if he dared to keep her."

Although she tried to downplay it, her tone still revealed anger.

"The governor is a brave warrior with a great reputation. There must be countless people who want to curry favor with him. Today, the governor of Yangzhou sent a skinny horse. In the past, there must have been others who sent an otaku. In the future, there will be others who will send others."

"This is not something I can stop. Besides..." Jiang Shiwan hesitated, "What qualifications do I have to stop him?"

"But..." Yun Shang wanted to strongly express that the wife of the commander-in-chief was extraordinary, but when she thought about the cold war between the two of them these days, she couldn't help but keep her mouth shut.

Jiang Shiwan was lying on the bed, and he saw Ah You sleeping soundly from the side. He couldn't help but reach out and stroke his cheek.

"I really hope my Ah You can live a freer life, away from intrigues and deceptions, and live the life he wants."

She was a little tired and closed her eyes gently: "Yun Shang, please leave. I'm going to sleep."

She could faintly hear the sounds of laughter and chatter from the banquet, so she patted Ayou's back and fell into a deep sleep.

Maybe because he was tired from playing the day before, Ayou woke up late.

By the time he woke up and Jiang Shiwan asked someone to come in and serve him, it was already 3 p.m.

Xueying and the wet nurse were dressing Ayou, while Yunshang was combing Jiang Shiwan's hair.

Jiang Shiwan noticed Yun Shang's hesitation and thought something had happened: "What's wrong?"

"Madam..." Yun Shang stammered, "Last night, Miss Wen Yan stayed here."

"Ok?"

"She is the prostitute that the Yangzhou prefect presented to the governor."

Jiang Shiwan said, "Oh," "Got it." He then ordered, "Just follow the governor's orders."

She felt as if something was blocking her chest, and she took a deep breath secretly until the nurse came over. She smiled, looked at Ah You in the mirror and asked, "Do you like looking in the mirror so much?"

Ah You was seen making faces and sticking out his tongue at himself in the mirror, and everyone present couldn't help laughing at his amusement.

After dinner, Jiang Shiwan planned to take Ayou out for a walk again.

When the group passed by Meng Tingzhou's bedroom, they saw the door was wide open. Meng Tingzhou was leaning on a rocking chair reading a book. On the desk a few steps away from him, a graceful woman was painting. She looked at him from time to time with a charming smile.

Ah You saw Meng Tingzhou making an “Ahhh” sound. He looked up at the noise and smiled calmly, “Come, let daddy hug you.”

The nanny glanced at Jiang Shiwan's face, and when she saw her slight gesture, she felt relieved and carried Ayou in.

Wen Yan, who was inside, looked around quietly when she saw the group of people, but she immediately saw Jiang Shiwan, who was standing in the middle with a calm demeanor and stunning appearance.
