“I have experienced a lot from obscurity to the present. If I just relies on empty words, I am afraid that I’d already be dead.”

The slender hands gradually descended, flowing between the chest and abdomen.

Puyang Zheng felt his lower abdomen tighten; he suddenly grabbed Qi Yan’s increasingly presumptuous hand and let out a muffled groan in his throat.

“Don’t be presumptuous!”

“What? The general wants to punish me?”

There was no trace of scruples in his tone; Qi Yan’s did not take back his hand, but instead he grabbed Puyang Zheng’s hand.

Puyang Zheng shrank, but Qi Yan caught him tightly.

“You……”

“General, do you want to know about the curse?”

The sudden change of topic took Puyang Zheng aback, his eyes looked more serious when he looked at Qi Yan: “Tell me.”

“It is rumored that the repeated death of the general’s wife is a curse. It is also said that when the general fought in the battlefield, the souls of his subordinates turned into yuan gui1冤鬼 unjust ghost/the spirits of persons who died wrongful deaths. to get some revenge. But the general is a righteous man with strong yang energy, making them unable to get close, so the people around him will die one after another.”

“Nonsense!” Puyang Zheng shouted angrily.

“It’s nonsense but also not nonsense.” Qi Yan pointed out.

“What are you implying?”

Puyang Zheng raised his head to look at him, but he suddenly leaned down.……

“The general wants to know, then I will have to receive some benefits…”

Puyang Zheng suddenly widened his eyes, feeling the soft touch on his lips in disbelief. The unique fragrance lingered on the tip of his nose. Although it was fragrant, he didn’t feel feminine at all, on the contrary, he was enchanting with a little evil aura.

Qi Yan licked the other party’s thin lips carefully, sometimes biting lightly, sometimes holding it, as if he was playing.

“You–!” Pushing him away abruptly, Puyang Zheng frowned and stared at Qi Yan with an unusual ruddy flush on his cheeks.

“General, don’t trust the emperor too much.” Ignoring Puyang Zheng’s dissatisfaction, Qi Yan turned and sat aside, leisurely poured himself a cup of tea and sipped lightly.

Puyang Zheng trusted the emperor too much and followed him sincerely.

But would the emperor trust him equally? Heh, what a joke.

Towards a family that had held military power for generations, the emperor would only felt doubt and guard against it.

“You are……”

“I am tired today, general, please go back.” Qi Yan licked the corner of his mouth without looking up at him: “If the general believes me, then please come again. If the general doesn’t believe me, you can forget what I said today.”

The merciless way he sent guest off made Puyang Zheng’s face cold. His words were ambiguous and untrustworthy with a hint of danger. Puyang Zheng lowered his head to think for a bit and finally cupped his hand to leave.

After Puyang Zheng left, the room fell into silence.

Qi Yan sipped his tea as if no one else had ever appeared in the room, only himself quietly sipping tea.

After a while, a breeze floated, blowing away the heat and dryness of the room.

“Come out and give me today’s news.”

A person suddenly jumped off the beam of the room. The black suit revealed the man’s sturdy figure.

The man walked over with a smile, his evil purple eyes were different from ordinary people, more like a monster.

“Are you really interested in that general?” The man slowly approached before finally stopped at a distance of only one finger; he gently lifted Qi Yan’s chin.

“This has nothing to do with you.” Qi Yan raised his eyebrows and waved his hand unceremoniously.

“How could it have nothing to do with me? The general and I are rivals…”

“Rival?” Qi Yan chuckled lightly: “If you and he are rivals, then I will definitely choose him.””

“That’s so sad.” The man’s face was full of smile and didn’t look sad at all.

Hearing this, Qi Yan raised his eyebrows slightly and ignored him.
