Suiyan is waiting for your return - Chapter 13

Upon arriving at the bridal chamber, Feng Ling Tian, still the image of a noble son, suddenly shed his graceful demeanor and revealed his mischievous nature.

“Little Yun Xi, how exactly did you manage to attract that wild man, Cheng HaoJin?” Feng Ling Tian patted Yun Xi’s head, casually perched his legs on the happy couch, and reached for a handful of pine nuts, munching away contentedly.

Yun Xi looked at his two changing faces, unsure whether her gamble this time was right or wrong. The tension she had held for days finally crumbled in front of Feng Ling Tian, and tears fell like rain.

“Look, you’re really crying!” Feng Ling Tian rubbed her head. “Brother knows how unfair things have been for you, but although Cheng HaoJin looks rough and wild, he does have his principles.” He took out a wooden box from his robes and handed it to Yun Xi, pointing to it, “Here, this is a gift from my mother for you.”

As she wiped her tears, Yun Xi tightly grasped the wooden box. The true reason she agreed to this marriage was Princess Ming Feng.

Although this Red Feather General had caused her Uncle Jing Wang a lifetime of gloom, and he had never married a wife, she was the only person he regarded as a rival during his lifetime. Currently, Yun Xi had the elite soldiers of the national protection house but lacked good generals. The Feng family’s army was filled with talents, and the four characters “Princess Ming Feng” held far greater prestige in the hearts of the common people than the imperial family.

No matter who wields power, the first to bow in submission must be the Feng family’s army.

“Why are you trying to comfort me? You can come here so openly; isn’t it because you and Cheng HaoJin planned it together?” Yun Xi listened attentively to the noises outside the door, gesturing to him for confirmation, intentionally asking.

Feng Ling Tian pinched Yun Xi’s cheek and continued to smile, “How could such a secret matter be casually told to you? Should I let my brother sweet-talk you instead?”

Yun Xi rolled her eyes and, playing along, said coyly, “Hey, I’m currently the general’s wife and a princess. Are you trying to play with your brother-in-law’s feelings?”

Outside the door, there was a thud as if something had fallen, and Yun Xi signaled for Feng Ling Tian to go take a look.

Feng Ling Tian shook his head, looking at Yun Xi with pity. “The person is already here. I really can’t believe that you, this delicate flower, would willingly become the general’s wife!”

“Willing? How many marriages in the world are really voluntary? It’s just a marriage between two families for mutual benefit. It’s you, Seventh Brother, who used to complain to us that this righteous brother is inhuman, but now you’re bowing down and submissive, you’re just a dog’s leg!”

Yun Xi picked up Feng Ling Tian’s peeled pine nuts and put them in his mouth.

“Conscience will not hurt, my good sister, think about today’s seventh brother is actually for whom to bow the ear! The world often says that husband and wife are one, I wonder if in the future, when seventh brother and husband are on opposite sides, who is little Yunxi helping?” Feng Ling Tian smiled shyly and opened his mouth lazily.

“Of course, I’ll help you!”

Yun Xi didn’t hesitate for a moment, “Brother’s ambition of having a big bird in his chest hasn’t changed since he was a child, so as a younger sister, I will naturally help my brother. After the wedding, Cheng Haojin will definitely ask me for half of the remaining tiger symbols of the Anxi Army, but tiger symbols are dead, but people are alive. Brother, with me, without the Tiger Talisman, the Anxi Army can be yours.”

She looked solemnly at Feng Ling Tian, “I just don’t know if Brother dare?”

Feng Ling Tian gently stroked Yun Xi’s sideburns and smiled, “Little Xi’er is so powerful, why wouldn’t Brother dare? The last time I saw Little Xi’er was at the Maturity Banquet, when she was crying and hugging Seventh Brother and wouldn’t let him get away with it. But now you have to calculate and plan, it’s really hard for our little crybaby.

Yun Xi’s nose hurts and tears fall, the teardrops roll onto Feng Ling Tian’s fingers and slide out of sight, “Seventh Brother, are you really not afraid that I will join hands with Cheng HaoJin?”

“It’s a good idea for a brother to end up with a younger brother, it’s in accordance with the system of etiquette. If you have an older brother, then Xiao Xi’er is just like her aunt who is a regent, isn’t it better than that?…
