"Miss Zhangsun, why are you here?”
Yang Zhao greeted her with a smile. His attitude towards the beauty in front of him was completely different from Li Xiu Ning's.
For some reason, this bright and gentle girl always gave him a natural and peaceful feeling when he got along with her.
"Wugou heard that Big Brother Yang was also going to participate in the theory examination and thought that there was a set of Mingguang Armor passed down from his ancestors at home that should fit Big Brother Yang's figure, so he sent it over to Big Brother Yang.”
Zhangsun Wugou waved his hand, and the servants behind him brought the armor to Yang Zhao.
Yang Zhao's heart was slightly warm, but he didn't expect Zhangsun Wugou to be so meticulous and actually think of sending him armor.
Moreover, it was an ancestral armor.
"I appreciate Young Lady's good intentions, but this is your heirloom armor, so I can't accept it.”Yang Zhao shook his head.
Zhangsun Wugou, however, said," If we don't use this armor, it'll just be stained with dust in the storeroom. It's better to give it to someone useful. This was my father's wish."”
When she mentioned her father's name, Yang Zhao's heart couldn't help but tremble, his eyes filled with respect.
Her father was the famous general of the Sui Dynasty, Zhangsun Sheng. It was because of his intelligence that Emperor Wen, Yang Jian, was able to split the Turks and remove the threat of the northern borders of the Sui Dynasty.
Yang Zhao naturally had respect for this famous general who had rendered meritorious service in China.
"Since that's the case, I'll have to thank Miss Zhangsun.”
Yang Zhao didn't put on any pretentious pretense and decline hypocritically. She sincerely gave it to him, so he happily accepted it.
Zhangsun Wugou smiled gratefully and personally helped Yang Zhao change his armor.
If this scene was seen by an outsider, they would think that it was a wife putting on armor for her husband who was about to go to war.
Inside the window, Li Xiu Ning watched Zhangsun Wugou carefully put on the armor for Yang Zhao. Her beautiful eyebrows quietly furrowed, and an inexplicable bitterness rose in her heart.
She returned to look at the brocade couch. There was a set of armor neatly placed on it. This was the set of armor that she had personally picked out from the military camp's arsenal last night.
She had originally thought that if Yang Zhao came to call her, she would go with the flow and personally put on this armor for him, accompanying him to the Imperial Army Drill Ground.
However, who would have thought that her pride would make her miss the opportunity?
At this moment, it was Zhangsun Wugou, this outsider, who did what a wife should do for her.
Outside the window.
Yang Zhao had already put on the Mingguang Armor.
Under the morning light, the armor reflected a silver glow. The young man stood tall, his entire body emitting a heroic spirit.
It was the first time that the maidservants around them saw their son-in-law's heroic bearing in armor. They were all in a daze.
Zhangsun Wugou took a step back, sizing up Yang Zhao from head to toe, a faint smile on his face, a subtle light flickering in his eyes.
"Alright, I have to rush to the drill ground.”
Yang Zhao didn't care about their gazes, tightening his clothes and armor, and was about to leave.
"Where's Sister Xiu Ning? Isn't she going with you?”
Zhangsun Wugou noticed the abnormality and looked towards the window.
Li Xiuning didn't want to be seen, so she quietly moved away from the window.
"In her eyes, this matter should be insignificant and not worth going.”
Yang Zhao looked back at the half-closed window and smiled faintly.
In front of outsiders, he gave Li Xiu Ning face and did not expose the fact that they were husband and wife on the surface.
"Oh, then I want to go to the drill ground too. Let's go together.”
Zhangsun Wugou didn't think too much about it and followed Yang Zhao. The two of them chatted and laughed as they left side by side.
rustle ~~
Inside the house, Li Xiu Ning flipped the armor over onto the ground and sat down, sulking.
"That Miss Zhangsun seems to have a special relationship with our son-in-law. Could it be that they are behind our miss's back…"
"Keep your voice down! What are you guessing? What is our young miss's identity? Our son-in-law is from a poor family. Do you still dare to cheat?”
"That might not be the case. Everyone knows about son-in-law's literary talent. If he wins the combat examination and gets the recognition of the emperor, he will rise to the top. Our miss can still suppress him.”
"Sigh, that's true. Actually, son-in-law is quite easy-going. It's all our young miss's fault for not being able to lower her status and coldness son-in-law's heart.”
The maidservants outside the window whispered to each other, thinking that Li Xiu Ning couldn't hear them. However, they didn't know that her martial arts skills were extraordinary, and she had sharp ears and eyes, so she heard them clearly.
