Song Jinghuan clenched his fists and stood up. “Little General Meng, I didn’t delay everyone’s work.”

She did not deny her relationship with the Duchess, so Meng Linyan was even more certain of her guess. She glanced at Yue Zhu.

The latter understood and berated, “The general and I saw the whole scene from outside, yet you still dare to quibble. Men, drag him away!”

Meng Linyan raised her hand. “There’s no need to hit him. After all, he’s the

Duchess’s subordinate. However, since he’s in the wrong, he has to be punished. From today onwards, you can clean the stables.”

In order to prevent the warhorses from falling sick, they needed someone to clean up the feces in the stables every day. Being dirty and tired was not the main point. Now that the weather was getting hotter, the smell there was the most uncomfortable.

After saying that, Meng Linyan looked at her coldly, as if she was waiting for her to offend her superior so that she could punish her.

Song Jinghuan’s face darkened. Thinking of what her brother had said, she took a deep breath and suppressed the urge to beat her up. She gritted her teeth and said, “Yes.”

Meng Linyan was surprised for a moment. She had seen Song Jinghuan a few times, and every time, she would bare her fangs and brandish her claws. When had she ever been so obedient?

However, she was not disappointed. Since Song Huan was in her hands, it would be easy for her to find fault with Song Huan. She could take revenge for Linlang.

“Then pack up and go over now.”

Meng Linyan was not worried that she would disobey orders. With that, she left the kitchen with Yue Zhu.

“Kid from the Song family, did you offend her in some way?” The crippled veteran leaned over again.

“Who offended her?” Song Jinghuan rolled his eyes and muttered angrily, “To think that I thought she was different from that useless dog. I didn’t expect them to be the same.”

She said it very softly, but the veteran still heard her. He looked at Song Jinghuan deeply and was about to say something when a soldier ran in from outside and left the kitchen with Song Jinghuan.

Song Jinghuan was pulled along and jogged to a stream behind the military camp before stopping. She shook off the other party’s hand and said angrily, “Liu Jinbao, what are you doing?”

Liu Jinbao panted heavily. After looking around and making sure that no one was around, he said seriously, “Be careful these few days.”

He was clearly concerned, but Song Jinghuan was already angry, so the words she heard were twisted.

“I think you’re the one who has to be careful. Don’t think that I won’t dare to hit you just because you helped me yesterday.”

Yesterday, Song Jingchen punished her with 30 strokes of the cane. The person holding the military stick was Liu Jinbao.

“I do have to be careful.” Liu Jinbao nodded in agreement. “But you have to be careful too. You embarrassed Liu Yang in public by competing with him. Young General Meng…”

“Wait.” Song Jinghuan finally realized that she had misunderstood. She frowned and asked, “What happened?”

Liu Jinbao choked and told her about what had happened on the city tower. “I still feel terrible when I think about the way he looked at me.”

He shook his body exaggeratedly and concluded, “In any case, regardless of whether I’m thinking too much, the two of us have to be careful. Isn’t your brother and sister-in-law here( Why don’t you take a tew days Ott or just stay in the general’s residence every day?”

After all, there was no evidence. They couldn’t complain without any evidence. If they misunderstood Young General Meng, it would be slander.

Song Jinghuan sized him up from head to toe and circled him.

Liu Jinbao blushed and didn’t dare to look at her. “What’s wrong?” Song Jinghuan clenched his right fist and slapped his left palm. “This is the feeling.”

Liu Jinbao was stunned. “What do you mean?”

Song Jinghuan said matter-of-factly, “It makes me want to bully you.”

Liu Jinbao’s face turned red. “Song Jinghuan, you’re a girl. You dare to say something like this? How could you…”

“Hey, that’s not what I meant. Didn’t you say that there was something wrong with the way he looked at you? I was wondering if he had taken a fancy to you.” Song Jinghuan shrugged innocently.

Liu Jinbao’s face was no longer red. He was so angry that his head hurt. He gritted his teeth and said, “We’re all men!”

“What if Meng Shaoyuan has a homosexual fetish and likes someone like you?” Seeing that Liu Jinbao was furious, Song Jinghuan quickly swallowed the rest of her words and said seriously, “Alright, I’ll be careful.”

Liu Jinbao finally relaxed.

“You must remember what I said. Don’t go anywhere alone if there aren’t many people around. If anyone asks you to go out, don’t go. As soon as you realize that something is wrong, immediately look for your brother and sister-in-law,” he reminded her again.

Seeing him like this, Song Jinghuan, who originally didn’t care, couldn’t help but think more about it. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that her initial guess was right.

She took out a pouch from her pocket. “There are a few packets of knockout powder inside. Keep them well. They can save you if you encounter any danger.”

“Keep this life-saving thing for yourself. I don’t need it.” Liu Jinbao was worried about her to begin with. He wouldn’t want her things.

“Just take it if I tell you to. I still have extra.”

Afraid that he wouldn’t believe her, Song Jinghuan took out an identical pouch.

She stuffed the pouch into Liu Jinbao’s arms and asked, “Didn’t my brother and I give you two sleeve arrows previously? Why didn’t you bring it with you?”

That was when the Song family left Xiagou Village and returned to the capital. Liu Jinbao didn’t expect her to still remember. He scratched his head and said, “I was afraid of damaging it, so I kept it in my bag.”

“Isn’t that for you to protect yourself?” Song Jinghuan’s heart skipped a beat. “Put on the sleeve arrow first thing when you get back. Don’t take it off when you sleep, understand?”

Liu Jinbao’s heart felt warm at her concern. “Got it.” “It’s time for dinner later. Let’s go back first.”

“Alright.”

Liu Jinbao temporarily forgot about his worries. On the other hand, Song

Jinghuan was worried. She wondered if she should think of a way to move to Liu Jinbao’s tent and keep an eye on him. At the very least, it would be good to see him every day to confirm that he was safe. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

No matter what, they were old acquaintances. She could not leave him in the lurch.

At night, in Meng Wu’s tent, after hearing his subordinate’s report, the father and son’s faces darkened.

“The Bulwark Duke has already started investigating?” Meng Wu asked.

He thought that Song Jingchen had said that he wanted to investigate General Gao’s case again to appease the soldiers. He didn’t expect him to be so proactive..
