Li Chengyuan scratched his head. If someone else shouted at him like this, he would definitely not be happy.
However, the woman in front of him had brought him up, so he had nothing to say.
Li Chengyuan could only say with a pleasant expression,""Auntie, the situation just now was critical. Swords have no eyes. I was afraid that you would be injured, so I locked you in.”
When Zhangsun Wugou heard this, he accepted this explanation. Just now, when she was in the thatched cottage, she had also heard the battle cries.
However, accepting it did not mean that she was not angry. She even said in a fit of pique,"If someone had barged in just now, I wouldn't have been able to escape! And you... Why are you tying me up like this?"
Li Chengyuan was slightly stunned. Why did his aunt's tone sound like she was resentful?
He couldn't help but look at Zhangsun Wugou, and he immediately understood.
After breakfast this morning, he wanted to continue tying Zhangsun Wugou up.
Zhangsun Wugou definitely couldn't take such humiliation.
"Hah ~"
Li Chengyuan laughed and took a step forward."Sudden Inspiration, I'll untie you now.”
Zhangsun Wugou subconsciously took a step back. She asked worriedly,""You'd better tie me up. That way, I'll feel safer.”
“...”
Li Chengyuan's face darkened and he said in a deep voice,""You are a captive, there is no room for bargaining!”
As he spoke, Li Chengyuan ignored Zhangsun Wugou and directly untied the rope. Then, he looked at the white-robed soldier beside him and said,"Get the maid over and bring her to wash up. You guys keep an eye on her and don't let her escape!”
Li Chengyuan left after saying that. He still had to discuss with Zhuge Liang about the surprise attack on Tuyuhun Royal City.
At this moment, Zhangsun Wugou panicked, and his pretty face turned pale.
Li Chengyuan had completely shed all pretense of cordiality!
She could imagine what would happen when she went to wash up later.
but
When Zhangsun Wugou saw the corpses all over the town, he immediately lost his voice.
It was only then that she realized that Li Chengyuan was no longer a child who followed behind her and asked for candy.
The struggle for imperial power and the cruelty of war had transformed Li Chengyuan. He could no longer look at Li Chengyuan in the past.
That thing could really happen!
"I'll bring you to wash up!"
At this moment, a maid's voice came from behind Zhangsun Wugou. She was so frightened that her entire body trembled. She was at a loss and was taken away by the maid in a daze.
When they arrived at a courtyard that had been cleared out, Zhangsun Wugou's back was already covered in sweat.
She had wanted to escape more than once, but along the way, she realized that only Li Chengyuan's men were left in the town. In fact, there was more than one archer watching her.
If he wanted to run, he might die. This made Zhangsun Wugou give up on the idea of running.
He seemed to have been prepared.
When Zhangsun Wugou entered the house, there was already hot water. When she saw it, her heart tightened, and a sense of fear rose.
When the bath was over, Zhangsun Wugou sat in front of the dressing table. He looked at his beautiful face in the bronze mirror and felt sad.
"This servant will go down first. If there's anything, just call out!”
Da!
The door was tightly shut, leaving Zhangsun Wugou alone in the room.
She took a deep breath and held the handle of the dressing table tightly as she leaned against the headboard.
A hint of determination flashed in Zhangsun Wugou's eyes.
As long as Li Chengyuan came in, if he was not convinced, then…
But for some reason, after waiting for a long time, Zhangsun Wugou's eyelids began to twitch, but there was no movement outside the house.
In the end, her exhausted nerves did not collapse and she fell asleep.
...
Three days later, at Tuyuhun Royal City.
Zhangsun Wugou looked at her own reflection in the bronze mirror with mixed feelings. She felt that everything was a little unbelievable.
"Aunt, I'll have to trouble you to act as my concubine and attend Fuyun Khagan's birthday banquet with me today!”
This was what Li Chengyuan had said to her in the morning. It seemed like a request, but there was no room for negotiation.
This was definitely Li Chengyuan's scheme!
He was playing hard to get!
Zhangsun Wugou thought.
After washing up that day, Li Chengyuan did not do anything as she expected. He did not even enter the house.
On the contrary, in the following few days, he was quite good to her. He did not tie her up again. Instead, he gave her some freedom, but she could not escape.
During this period, the two of them did not see each other. Even if she took the initiative to talk to Li Chengyuan, she would reject him with the excuse of " no time."
As a woman, she also had the nature to let her imagination run wild.
Zhangsun Wugou's body trembled. She turned around and met Li Chengyuan's half-smiling gaze. She immediately frowned and said,"Don't mention him. If you say it again, I won't go!”
Li Chengyuan smiled.
It seemed that his aunt had a grudge against Li Er. She had been captured for so long without any rescue. Anyone would have a grudge.
However, he had a hunch that Li Shiming had not yet made his move. He just hadn't arrived yet, so he still needed to be careful.
The faster they took down Tuyuhun, the better!
"Come with me to attend Fuyun Khagan's birthday banquet?" Li Chengyuan immediately said.”
