Hearing what she said so plausibly, Zhao Xi couldn't help but smile: "Well, what you said makes sense."
"Then you agree?" Li Can put her hand on his chest and asked happily.
"No." Zhao Ye hugged her tightly: "Even if you are acting, I can't let others humiliate you."
"Just saying a few words." Li Can wrinkled his little face and gave him a gentle blow: "Why are you so ignorant!"
"Ask someone else to go." Zhao Xi closed his eyes and whispered.
"Who is going next to you?" Li Can couldn't help but look at him with wide eyes: "Is there anyone else in front of you?"
"How could I?" Zhao Zhi opened his eyes and looked at her in a funny way.
"Then what did you say?" Li Can twisted his body and acted coquettishly: "Hurry up and make it clear."
"Don't move." Zhao Zhen pressed her waist: "There is no one else around, you can collect one for me and then let her go."
Li Can's dark eyes turned and widened in an instant: "You mean... Guo Jintang?"
"What do you think?" Zhao Zhi lowered his eyes and looked at her.
"This is a good idea!" Li Can became more energetic and said with a pair of bright phoenix eyes: "Anyway, Guo Jintang has ill intentions towards us, so let's just use her."
"Well." Zhao Ye stroked her head: "It's getting late, go to sleep quickly."
"But, do Guo Jintang and Liang Zuoxun know each other?" Li Can felt something was wrong again: "What if Liang Zuoxun knew that Guo Jintang was sent by his father and didn't molest her?"
"I'll let Feng Qing check it out tomorrow." Zhao Zhi patted her vest gently: "Go to sleep first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow."
"Okay." Li Can agreed, nestled in his arms and closed his eyes.
It had been a long time since she had slept in Zhao Zhi's arms like this. Smelling his breath and listening to his heartbeat, she felt as warm and safe as if she were surrounded by mountains and seas, and she fell into a deep sleep after a while.
But it was so painful that Zhao Ge waited for her to fall asleep, separated him from her with a quilt, and tossed and turned for a long time before finally falling asleep.
Early the next morning.
Li Can was drowsily asleep. He stretched out his hand to touch, but found nothing.
Zhao Ye is not beside her.
She opened her eyes and took a look. Sure enough, there was nothing around her.
She wrinkled her little face and called out in a deep voice: "Zhao Zeyu..."
"Yeah." Zhao Zhen's voice came from outside the bed curtain.
Immediately afterwards, the bed curtain was lifted open.
Li Can stretched out his hand towards him.
Zhao Ye held her delicate and soft little hand and sat down on the edge of the bed: "You woke up so early?"
"Well..." Li Can leaned over, resting her head on his lap, nestled into his arms like a kitten, and hugged his waist.
Zhao Zhen couldn't help but smile and touched her head: "Would you like to sleep a little longer?"
"You stay with me." Li Can rubbed her little face in his arms, acting coquettishly.
Zhao Zhen carefully avoided the situation and said, "You should lie back first."
Li Can paused for a moment, kicked his feet, and lay back down again.
Zhao Zong put on his clothes and leaned against her side.
Li Can felt very comfortable leaning into his arms, sighed contentedly, and couldn't help but smile softly.
This is the life she wanted before.
Zhao Ye hugged her and smiled.
Li Can nestled in his arms for a moment, feeling happy but unable to fall asleep.
"What are you doing up so early?" she asked Zhao Hao softly.
"Handling official business." Zhao Xi smoothed her smooth and thick hair.
"Oh..." Li Can responded.
"Feng Qing sent a message early in the morning." Zhao Zhen whispered: "Guo Jintang and Liang Zuoxun have never met face to face."
"Huh?" Li Can heard this and opened his eyes: "Did Feng Qing find out everything?
Guo Jintang and Liang Zuoxun’s father, Liang Rongrui, exchanged news. Have they really never met?"
"It was Guo Jintang who sent the news." Zhao Zhen nodded: "That's just it, they had no contact before.
This time, after Guo Jintang moved to Baifu, he exchanged news with Liang Rongrui under orders from Shenzhou."
Li Can thought about it carefully, nodded and said, "That's right.
Guo Jintang is a boudoir girl and has never lived in Yangzhou permanently. It is unusual for her not to recognize Liang Zuoxun and his son.
Then since she came here under orders and the message was intercepted by you, and Liang Rongrui didn't receive the message, wouldn't she be suspicious?"
"They have never met each other. I ordered people to send false news, saying only that I was not in the White Mansion and there was no news." Zhao Zhi explained calmly.
"Oh." Li Can suddenly became energetic, sat up and held his hand: "Then can I go now and collect Guo Jintang for you?"
Zhao Ye looked sideways at her: "I look at you, why are you still so happy?"
The little girl had fluffy black hair and sparkling eyes, staring at him closely, as if she was afraid of missing something interesting.
He couldn't help but smile.
"Eh?" Li Can leaned over to look at him: "Zhao Zeyu, you smiled.
Did you laugh just now? I saw it!"
Zhao Ye looked at her with a smile in his eyes: "What's so strange about me smiling?"
"Why isn't it surprising?" Li Can let go of his hand, held his shoulders with both hands, and stared at him: "Smile again, and show me another smile."
"Don't make trouble." Zhao Zhen shook her hand.
"Why don't you smile!" Li Can shook him coquettishly: "I want to see it."
Zhao Ye couldn't help but rub her lips together and smile.
This smile was bright, clear and bright, and the dark eyes seemed to bend up into the vast sea of stars, and they were noble and noble.
Li Can stared at him, stunned for a moment.
After a while, her eyes turned red, she pouted and shed tears.
Zhao Ye hurriedly sat up and took her into his arms: "What's wrong? Why are you crying all of a sudden?"
"You...you haven't smiled at me for years..." Li Can gave him a gentle hammer: "You haven't smiled at me for years, and you can only be cruel to me..."
Hearing this, Zhao Ye felt distressed and sad. He raised his hand to wipe away her tears and whispered in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I have wronged you all these years."
Li Can sobbed a few times, raised her wet eyes to look at him, and said obediently: "I'm not wronged, I know you taught me and were serious with me for my own good.
But things are no longer the same as before. We are already engaged, and you promised that you would be good to me.
So, can you be less serious in the future?
Smile at me often, okay?"
"Okay." Zhao Zhen lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.
Li Can burst into laughter immediately, holding his little face and burying it in the crook of his neck, smelling the refreshing fragrance of his body, feeling satisfied.
Holding the fragrant and soft ball in his arms, and holding the person at the forefront of his heart, Zhao Ji endured it extremely hard.
"Let's get up and have breakfast first, okay?" Zhao Zhen coaxed her in a low voice.
"Get dressed for me." Li Can rubbed her face against the crook of his neck.
"Okay." Zhao Zong agreed.
Li Can smiled and then was willing to let go of him.
When Zhao Ye dressed her up, he whispered: "I can't sleep with you tonight, you can rest by yourself."
"Where are you going?" Li Can couldn't help looking down at him.
Zhao Ye lowered his eyes, carefully put on her shoes, and said: "I'm not going anywhere.
It's just that this is my grandfather's house. Although we are engaged, we are not married yet, so we shouldn't always sleep in the same place, causing others to criticize us."
Li Can nodded: "Yes, I understand."
Zhao Zhen stood up and kissed her on the forehead: "Be good, we will get married when we return to the Imperial Capital."
Li Can looked at him with bright eyes, and the sweet happiness in her heart was indescribable. Did Zhao Gong want to marry her so urgently?
Zhao Ye asked her, the tips of her ears turned red, and she turned around: "Come and wash up."
Li Can followed obediently.
"After breakfast later, shall I go find Guo Jintang?" She cleaned her teeth, stood by the washstand, and dipped her two white and tender hands in the hot water.
Zhao Zhen twisted the handkerchief and washed her face, saying: "You are too eager, calm down a little before doing anything."
Li Can let him wash his face, and then he sat down at the table, holding the spoon and still thinking about it.
Zhao Ye filled the porridge and placed it in front of her.
She suddenly raised her eyes: "I know, I can't be too proactive.
If I take the initiative, Guo Jintang will definitely be suspicious, and I will let her take the initiative to come to me."
"Yeah." Zhao Zhen was not surprised and nodded gently: "Let's have breakfast first."
This is what Li Can should have thought of, but she was just anxious for a moment, so she made some wrong decisions.
"You can go work in your yard later." Li Can took a few mouthfuls of porridge and had an idea in his mind. A smile appeared on his face: "Guo Jintang, I have an idea."
"Yeah." Zhao Zong nodded.
"Don't you ask me what I plan to do?" Li Can tilted her head and looked at him: "This is a big deal. If the secret is revealed, it will cause you big trouble."
Zhao Xie brought her some food and said calmly: "I can trust you."
