This...
They really hadn’t thought of this question!
However...
They recalled past events in the military camp.
At that ti, the army swept across the small countries at the border, and soone offered the most beautiful and outstanding won to the generals, receiving lavish rewards themselves, and later even being promoted to Centurion, Chiliarch.
So, it seems that pleasing the superiors is a very correct choice?
The three exchanged glances, then nodded to each other.
This woman is definitely a gem, offering her to the Eldest Young Master, he would certainly be pleased.
Even if he’s not interested, rewarding her to the subordinate officers would also be good!
As long as one continues to climb upwards, why would they worry about not having won?
So, after so consideration, the three decided to present Long Yue to Eldest Young Master Rong Mu.
Tonight, there would be a celebration banquet at the military camp, providing a great opportunity.
"You, co with us!"
The three cast one last covetous glance at Long Yue, telling her to follow them.
Long Yue slightly bowed, obediently following along.
The Daliang Military Camp was stationed within the Valley Pass, and to prevent a surprise attack from Dazhou, strict defensive asures had been put in place. Upon arriving here, Long Yue imdiately felt a somber sense of vigilance from the guards.
A squad of soldiers was posted at the gate. Seeing the three bringing back Long Yue, one stepped forward and asked, "Who is she?"
The inquiring soldier wore a vigilant expression, fearing Long Yue might be a spy.
Long Yue cautiously glanced at the soldiers, her face filled with fear.
Her delicate and fragile appearance actually made the soldiers slightly relax. One of them said, "Liu Wu, who is this woman and where are you coming from? She’s quite a looker!"
"Heh, brother, isn’t it the celebration banquet tonight? We went out to check, saw no enemy troops but instead found a beautiful escapee, thought of bringing her back for the superiors to enjoy."
He said this with a knowing look.
The soldiers responsible for guarding the gate were not new recruits, they were well aware of the underlying currents. They couldn’t help but grin at Liu Wu and the others.
The one who asked went forward to pat Liu Wu on the shoulder, giving him a thumbs-up: "Brother, you have a bright future. Don’t forget your pals when you get promoted, alright?"
Liu Wu chuckled, "Of course, of course!"
Liu Wu and the others rode in on horseback with Long Yue following, and many soldiers along the way laid eyes on her with a gaze akin to wolves.
She was just too beautiful!
Not only was she beautiful, but her figure was excellent too, the kind where an extra ounce would be burdenso, but less would lack charm.
Long Yue even heard soone gulp.
Ha, these mundane people!
Long Yue scorned these thoughts in her heart, then leisurely walked on, each step graceful like a lotus growing with every step, walking with such flair that it was soul-stirring.
"Stay here and don’t wander off!"
Long Yue was brought to a small tent, guarded by two guards at the entrance.
"I understand!"
Her voice was soft and sweet, enough to make one’s bones itch.
The two soldiers guarding her felt as if they were enduring hell. This kind of beauty could only be looked at but not tasted; truly stifling!
But there was no choice, they were just minor soldiers, above them were Centurions, Chiliarchs, Commander, General, and the Eldest Young Master sat atop, leaving nothing for them.
Just seeing her was already a privilege.
Long Yue waited in the small tent and finally, night arrived.
The night was pleasant, the sky was cloudless, stars bright, the moon shining brilliantly, casting a thin layer of silver light, making the ground look like it’s been covered with frost.
The Daliang Military Camp was brightly lit, the aroma of wine perating the air, filled with the sound of people bustling.
Alcohol was usually prohibited in the military because drinking could lead to mistakes, but exceptions are made when rewarding the troops; today was a rare occasion for the Daliang Army to relax.
There were also so won in the camp for the soldiers to enjoy, but this kind of life...so couldn’t bear it and would be tortured to death.
Of course, so skilled ones managed to survive and even live reasonably well.
Thus, in the camp, there were a few won dancing, accompanied by cheers from so of the officers.
"Wait here!"
Long Yue, wearing a bright, tight-fitting red dress that outlined her captivating curves, stood gracefully at the tent entrance. A soldier glanced at her with infatuation and followed Liu Wu inside to report.
"Reporting to the Eldest Young Master and the generals, I have found an exquisite woman outside and brought her as an offering for your enjoynt!"
Inside the tent, the atmosphere was warm. Li Qingmu sat at the head seat, dressed in loose casual attire, the table in front loaded with wine and food. Hearing this, a slight flicker passed through his pupils!
An exquisite woman? What kind of exquisite woman?
His heart involuntarily trembled, and with a detached gaze, he looked down: "Exquisite woman? Didn’t I tell you not to disturb the border civilians? Are you treating my words as wind passing by your ears?"
There must be military discipline. Recklessly abusing border civilians would only cause them to loathe the Liang Army, which isn’t the action of a righteous army.
Liu Wu hurriedly said, "The Eldest Young Master misunderstands, this woman is a refugee, coincidentally encountered by ..."
"A refugee? Hah, what if she’s a spy for the enemy?"
Uh?
Liu Wu was stumped, not knowing what to say next?
Soone beside him stepped up and said, "What the Eldest Young Master says is reasonable. I suggest we kill this woman to avoid any complications."
Liu Wu’s heart tightened.
Kill this woman? That would also an he’s guilty; so what to do now?
Li Qingmu took another sip of wine and mildly said, "Let her in! Since she’s here, there’s no reason to kill her outright. Even if one were to kill..."
The rest of the sentence was left unsaid, but everyone felt a chill running from their feet upwards.
Use her first and then kill... the Eldest Young Master could really do it, couldn’t he?
But people seem drawn to the strong and the ruthless, and the military personnel respected and admired Li Qingmu even more.
"Enter!"
A commanding shout, the tent curtain slowly opened, and a woman in a red dress, holding a pipa, gracefully entered.
Two blushes rose on her face, with a shy and fearful, timid bearing that aroused boundless feelings of protection and an urge to ravish her.
Everyone’s gaze was fixed on Long Yue, even Lu Zhi beside Li Qingmu, montarily had his breath taken away.
At the barren border, won were scarce, even more so ones that weren’t disappointing. Suddenly seeing such a beauty, it was genuinely hard to maintain composure!
"Greetings, generals, my lords."
Long Yue slightly raised her head, quickly scanning everyone, but when her gaze landed on the man at the head seat, her gaze lingered for a mont, but imdiately lowered again.
Everyone was drawn to Long Yue’s beauty and fiery figure, except Li Qingmu, who wore a wooden expression, rely drinking from his cup.
His gaze reflected no warmth, even hinting at a slight chill, but his heart had almost stopped beating!
It’s you!
It truly is you!
He silently recited in his heart, his gaze growing deeper!
An entire year had passed, yet it felt like countless springs and autumns. They had finally t again, but who would have thought it would be in this manner?
Under such scrutiny, he was a military commander, whereas she was rely an actress pleasing with her beauty?
Li Qingmu took a deep breath, and downed the strong liquor in his hand in one go!
