The Book and the Sword (Continued) Chapter Nine: Springtime Passion, Long Road,

Finding Joy Amidst Suffering. As the first rays of morning sunlight streamed in, Chen Jialuo had already opened his eyes. He looked at the sleeping beauty beside him, her high, snow-white, and rounded breasts rising and falling slightly. The triangle area between her legs was mysterious yet intensely alluring. Chen Jialuo's desire rose again. Last night, thinking of Zhang Juanjuan and the lack of intimacy, he could only let her use her mouth to replace him, which inevitably prevented him from fully satisfying himself. Adding to the fact that early morning is a time when sexual desire is heightened, he couldn't resist any longer and lowered his head, sucking hard on a dark red nipple . Stimulated by this, Zhang Juanjuan opened her eyes, saying with a mixture of love and shame, "You tormented me all night last night. And now you won't let me sleep in? Don't you want me to live?"

Chen Jialuo, with her nipple in his mouth, remained silent, his hand darting further down to her lower body, parting her legs and probing her "Peach Blossom Cave" with his fingers. Zhang Juanjuan's body initially seemed to freeze as if struck by lightning, then began to gently squirm…

After a while, Zhang Juanjuan pleaded, "Hmm, if you want it, then come. It's already broad daylight; if someone sees us, I'll be so ashamed."

Only then did Chen Jialuo release the swollen, hard nipple, and thrust his erect penis into her… His already moistened vagina, Zhang Juanjuan grasped one breast in each hand and thrust forcefully. She wrapped her arms around Chen Jialuo's broad back, twisting her body to match his thrusts, her mouth uttering incessant moans: "Ah...so deep...just keep thrusting until I'm dead...harder...don't be idle with your hands...touch my breasts."

After a few thrusts, Chen Jialuo rolled over, letting Zhang Juanjuan control the force and direction herself. He leisurely played with and kneaded her bouncing breasts, admiring the expressions of pain and pleasure on her beautiful face. Her eyes were lightly closed, her small nose panting, and her mouth constantly uttering various lewd moans with each movement. White, viscous semen gushed from her vagina as his penis went in and out.

Finally, Zhang Juanjuan slowed down, collapsing completely onto Chen Jialuo, panting heavily, and said, "I... I really can't go on."

Chen Jialuo gently stroked her sweat-dampened hair and said affectionately, "You should rest for a while."

Zhang Juanjuan shifted her body to find a more comfortable position and asked, "How's Qing Tong's skill in bed?"

Chen Jialuo replied, "Far from as good as yours."

Zhang Juanjuan smiled knowingly, a happy and smug smile on her face. Just as she was about to speak again, she heard a knock at the door and someone say, "Young Master Chen, are you awake?"

Chen Jialuo recognized the voice as Hongye. He called out, "I'm awake. Miss Hongye, what is it?"

Hongye replied from outside, "My mistress hasn't been seen since last night. I wonder if Young Master Chen knows where she is?"

Chen Jialuo looked at Zhang Juanjuan, intending to find out how she should answer, but Zhang Juanjuan asked, "This girl has been with me for many years. She's quite sensible, and although she's not a beauty of unparalleled grace, she's still pretty and charming. I wonder if you have any feelings for her?"

Chen Jialuo was originally a well-educated and respectful man, but ever since he had slept with Huo Qingtong, and especially with Zhou Qi, it seemed as if a hole had been opened in his heart. He found it difficult to control his desires, otherwise, given his past behavior, he wouldn't have repeatedly engaged in sexual relations with Zhou Qi and Zhang Juanjuan.

At this moment, his desire had not yet subsided, and he was eager to act upon hearing this, but he was also in a dilemma: "That would only work if she liked me."

Zhang Juanjuan gave him a reproachful look and said, "I knew you would say that. Don't worry, this little girl has already given her heart to you."

After saying that, she told Chen Jialuo everything that Hongye had told her. Chen Jialuo was both surprised and delighted, saying, "I never thought I had such great charm!"

Zhang Juanjuan smiled and said, "If you agree, I'll call her in?"

Chen Jialuo said, "You don't mind? I'd be more than happy to oblige. My little brother hasn't had his fill yet."

After saying that, the penis inside Zhang Juanjuan moved again, and Zhang Juanjuan couldn't help but groan, scolding, "Save your energy for Hongye. I'll go open the door for her now."

So, she put on an overcoat and went to open the door for Hongye. When Hongye saw that Zhang Juanjuan's hair was disheveled, her face was flushed, and she was full of spring fever. Only a few buttons of her overcoat were fastened, which could not cover her chest, revealing her snow-white breasts. Most of her large, round breasts were still exposed. There was no trace of her usual elegant, quiet, virtuous and polite temperament. She was stunned for a moment.

Zhang Juanjuan pulled her inside, closed the door, and led Hongye by the hand, saying, "Hongye, Young Master Chen must be missing you terribly."

Hongye, half happy and half shy, arrived at Chen Jialuo's bedroom. She saw Chen Jialuo half-sitting on the bed, his upper body naked, his lower body covered by a sheet. Inexperienced, her face flushed crimson, her head bowed, not daring to look at Chen Jialuo.

Chen Jialuo looked at the shy Hongye, noting her curvaceous figure, her large, bright eyes, high nose, and small, red lips. While not a stunning beauty, she was certainly pretty and charming, radiating youthful energy and vitality. Seeing that the two of them hadn't moved for a while, Zhang Juanjuan couldn't help but give Hongye a gentle push from behind. Caught off guard, Hongye fell onto the bed, but Chen Jialuo reacted quickly, pulling her into his arms. He smelled the unique fragrance of a young girl, and the beauty in his arms seemed to be growing warmer.

Instantly, Hongye's pretty face flushed crimson, and she was panting heavily. Chen Jialuo looked at the shy beauty in his arms and said, "Hongye, do you really like me?"

Hongye was too shy to speak, her beautiful eyes tightly closed, her head slightly nodding, everything unspoken.

With the beauty's consent, Chen Jialuo gently kissed her cheek, and soon when he kissed her lips, Hongye gently opened her mouth, extending her red tongue to intertwine with Chen Jialuo's in a passionate kiss...

Chen Jialuo's hands moved over Hongye's breasts, kneading her small but elastic breasts. Her sensitive areas, never touched by anyone else, were wantonly played with by Chen Jialuo, and her heart seemed to be crushed as well. Her breathing became heavier, and her jade hands clung tightly to Chen Jialuo. Chen Jialuo kissed Hongye, and his hands quietly unbuttoned Hongye's top, revealing her fair and delicate skin. As expected, her breasts were like two large bowls turned upside down on her flat chest. At the top were two bright red cherries.

Chen Jialuo wasn't in a hurry to pick them. His left hand slid across the skin between her breasts, while his right hand caressed her flat, smooth abdomen, gently digging at her navel. After a while, he slowly grasped her two slippery breasts, kissing them with his tongue before finally taking one nipple into his mouth, gently nibbling and chewing it along with the squeezing and kneading of his hands.

Zhang Juanjuan wasn't idle either. She unzipped Hongye's pants and pulled down her underpants, only to find that Hongye was already overflowing with desire. Her dark pubic hair was wet with her juices, clinging softly to her snow-white skin. Zhang Juanjuan couldn't help but laugh, "You little rascal, so wet?"

Then she thought for a moment and realized something was wrong. There was no reason for so much fluid to come out after just a few moments. She immediately understood and asked, "Girl, were you eavesdropping outside for a long time?"

Hongye, caught off guard, could only nod, her pretty face blushing even more.

Chen Jialuo kissed his way down from her chest to her mons pubis, parted her thighs, and saw that her vulva was tightly closed. He gently peeled it open with his hand, revealing a mound of tender, red flesh. Chen Jialuo reached out and carefully touched it.

Zhang Juanjuan, who had previously served Hu Feng along with Li Meng, took over Chen Jialuo's previous "work" without being told. Her breasts and genitals were being played with by the two men, and she felt a tingling sensation throughout her body, as if her body no longer belonged to her. She cried out incessantly. Suddenly, she felt a thick, hot penis pressing against her entrance, slowly penetrating deeper. In an instant, a heart-wrenching pain spread from her lower body throughout her entire being, and she couldn't help but cry out, "Ah... Young Master Chen... It hurts so much! No!"

Zhang Juanjuan said to Chen Jialuo, "Be gentle, she's still a virgin."

While comforting Hongye, she said, "Little sister, just bear with it, it'll be alright. All women are like this the first time, it'll get better."

Then, she squeezed Hongye's breasts harder, her eyes gesturing for Chen Jialuo to continue. Chen Jialuo, having received the "order," forcefully parted Hongye's labia and finally squeezed his entire large penis inside. He felt his penis being tightly enveloped by a warm, tender flesh, as if being gripped by two strong hands, making it difficult to move in or out. Hongye was already in so much pain that tears streamed down her face. Zhang Juanjuan's jade-like hands caressed Hongye's breasts, and her red lips pressed against Hongye's pretty face, kissing her. After a while, Hongye's pain lessened slightly, and her body began to squirm gently. Seeing this, Chen Jialuo slowly began to thrust in and out. Hongye's lips were kissed, and she only made muffled "mmm" sounds.

As Chen Jialuo thrust his penis in and out of Hongye's body, he looked at the two bodies with their contrasting charms before him, feeling that he would never experience such pleasure again in his life.

He reached out and pulled Zhang Juanjuan's large, plump buttocks in front of her. Zhang Juanjuan was also feeling itchy in her lower body, so she lowered her slender waist, spread her legs, and raised her buttocks high, exposing her dark red anus and full, juicy vagina to Chen Jialuo. Curious, Chen Jialuo gently stroked her slightly open anus with one finger, while his other finger was already probing deep inside her vagina. Zhang Juanjuan seemed unable to bear the harassment, her buttocks swaying slightly. Chen Jialuo's interest was piqued, and he forcefully pushed his index finger into her anus, feeling an unusual tightness and strong suction, quite different from her vagina. His playful nature was aroused, and he continued to thrust his index finger in and out of her anus, causing Zhang Juanjuan's body to twist even more violently.

Hongye, a novice in lovemaking, couldn't withstand even a few dozen thrusts before letting out a muffled groan as semen gushed

from her vagina. Chen Jialuo withdrew his penis and asked, "Sister Juan, am I coming?" Zhang Juanjuan rolled off Hongye and lay down beside her, turning back to say, "Your penis is too big. Be gentle when you come in. Don't tear my anus."

Chen Jialuo hadn't intended to touch her anus, but hearing her say that piqued his interest. He forcefully spread her buttocks wide, opening her anus wide, and pushed his penis inside...

Hongye had never heard of anal play before and was very interested. She forced herself to sit up, watching Chen Jialuo's penis slowly disappear into her wife's dark red anus. Inside the hole, he heard Zhang Juanjuan scream, "Ah... your big cock is so powerful... it's going to tear my asshole apart... keep thrusting... it doesn't matter if you thrust it hard enough to burst it."

Although he had already heard Zhang Juanjuan's moans outside the door, now that she was right beside him, hearing his once dignified and quiet wife now moaning like a wanton harlot, he couldn't help but feel aroused. Seeing her large buttocks raised high, welcoming Chen Jialuo's thrusts, her slender upper body pressed tightly against the bed, her full and large breasts flattened, he reached out and squeezed her breasts. Zhang Juanjuan's screams grew louder, "Ah... squeeze harder... Hongye... good sister... you really know how to play."

Chen Jialuo, experiencing "backdoor" for the first time, thrust harder and harder. Soon, he suddenly felt a tremor in his abdomen, knowing he was about to come, so he asked, "Sister Juan, I'm coming."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Juanjuan twisted her body even more vigorously.

He cried out, "Come on... shoot it into my ass... oh... so good... so hot!"

Chen Jialuo pulled out his penis and lay between the two women. He looked at Zhang Juanjuan's voluptuous and alluring body, exuding the mature charm of a young woman, while Hongye appeared slender and graceful, radiating the youthful vitality of a girl. He was captivated.

Zhang Juanjuan's full breasts pressed tightly against Chen Jialuo's arm, and she said, "Husband, you're so naughty. You even want my back door."

Chen Jialuo laughed, "Don't you want it?"

Zhang Juanjuan said, "I originally wanted to test you for a few more days before making a decision. I didn't expect you to go first."

Chen Jialuo laughed heartily and said, "I have a sincere heart for you. Do I need to test you? Besides, you asked me to do it just now. Don't you think so, Hongye?"

Hongye was still immersed in the lewd and exciting scene just now, and unconsciously hummed in response. Zhang Juanjuan scolded from the side, "You brat, you don't recognize your master now that you have a husband." "See who will help you when he bullies you in the future?"

Hongye looked at Chen Jialuo with tender eyes and said softly, "Brother Chen will cherish me."

Chen Jialuo laughed and kissed Hongye's smooth forehead, saying, "Good girl. I will love you well in the future. Alright. You two rest. I'll get up first."

After saying that, he got up, dressed, and went out. After rinsing his teeth and washing his face, he went to Zhou Qi's room and saw her holding the baby. He smiled gently and went over to say, "Sister Qi."

Zhou Qi looked up at the sound of his voice and said, "You're really lucky with men. You've played with your master and now you've played with your maid."

Chen Jialuo's handsome face turned red and he said, "You know about this too?" "

Last night, I asked you to go to Zhang Juanjuan. This morning, Hongye sent someone here, and I told her to go find you. I never thought that she would never come back. Only then did I realize that I had sent a lamb to the slaughter."

Zhou Qi said with a smile.

Chen Jialuo chuckled, and Zhou Qi asked, "How was it? Was it fun?"

Chen Jialuo replied, "It was fun. But without you, it feels a little incomplete."

Zhou Qi blushed and scolded, "You deserve a beating! You're getting more and more absurd."

Chen Jialuo laughed it off and said, "We're going back tomorrow. I'm going out to buy some things now."

Zhou Qi said, "I haven't gone out these past few days. Let's go for a walk now!"

So Zhou Qi, carrying the baby, went to the market with Chen Jialuo. The two of them strolled around, buying and selling things. Unwittingly arriving at the yamen (government office), Chen Jialuo saw a bustling crowd, lanterns and decorations everywhere, and red paper offerings and firecrackers. He thought to himself, "Could it be Lord Xu Feng's wedding? Others wouldn't have such a grand affair."

Just then, he overheard someone in the crowd say to his neighbor, "I heard the bride was originally Hu Feng's concubine."

Another replied, "Indeed. Hu Feng really did commit a sin; he's only been dead a few days, and his own woman has already remarried."

The third person said, "Indeed. This Lord Xu is quite ruthless; I heard that woman is very beautiful, with tender flesh..."

Hearing this, a thought suddenly popped into Chen Jialuo's head: "Murder and theft of a wife!"

He then thought, "Didn't Zhang Juanjuan also end up with me? Although Hu Feng didn't die directly at my hands, he was still harmed by me. So, wouldn't I also be considered a murderer and theft of a wife?" He used to look down on these things in the martial arts world. But now, hadn't he also boarded this ship, even sleeping with his sworn sister-in-law? All of this made him seem like a completely different person from before. Had he truly come to terms with everything after what happened with Xiangxiang? Chen Jialuo was utterly perplexed!

Zhou Qi noticed Chen Jialuo's expression darken and asked, "Brother Chen, what's wrong?"

Chen Jialuo snapped out of his reverie and smiled, "Nothing."

Zhou Qi said, "Should we go in and celebrate with them?"

Chen Jialuo replied, "No, it's too crowded inside. There might be people who recognize us. It could cause trouble. Let's go back."

That evening, Chen Jialuo went to Zhang Juanjuan's room. Seeing Zhang Juanjuan and her servant Hongye chatting and laughing on the bed, Chen Jialuo went over and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Zhang Juanjuan replied, "I'm telling Hongye about the beautiful scenery of the Central Plains."

Chen Jialuo was surprised and asked, "Hongye has never been to the Central Plains?"

Hongye said, "My parents gave birth to me here. They unfortunately died of the plague when I was fifteen. No one took me there; I only heard that it's much more beautiful and prosperous than here."

Chen Jialuo squeezed onto the bed, embracing the two beauties on either side, kissing one and the other, feeling incredibly happy.

Zhang Juanjuan said, "We can't keep you company tonight. We're both in so much pain down there that we can barely walk."

Chen Jialuo said, "Then what am I going to do? The night is long, and I can't sleep."

Zhang Juanjuan said, "Go find your Qi-mei. If you don't, you might get accused of being fickle again. She might even think we instigated you."

Chen Jialuo couldn't hide his panic and said, "You two are really insightful. How did you know about my relationship with her?"

Zhang Juanjuan said, "Qi-mei told me herself. You're really something, keeping it from us."

Chen Jialuo laughed and said, "It's my fault. From now on, I'll tell you everything I know, okay?"

Zhang Juanjuan and Hongye laughed together upon hearing this.

After kissing each of them on the cheek, Chen Jialuo got out of bed and said, "Then you two should rest well. We have to travel tomorrow."

Chen Jialuo went to Zhou Qi's room, knocked on the door, and Zhou Qi came to open it, saying, "I thought you weren't coming."

Chen Jialuo turned around and closed the door, then went over and embraced her, pulling her onto the bed. Chen Jialuo kissed Zhou Qi while helping her undress.

As Chen Jialuo's large hand grasped Zhou Qi's genitals and slowly rubbed them, Zhou Qi suddenly asked, "We're going back tomorrow, right?"

Chen Jialuo's fingers were moving back and forth inside Zhou Qi's wetness, and he only hummed in response.

Suddenly, Zhou Qi threw herself into Chen Jialuo's arms, her voice trembling, "What will we do after we go back?"

Chen Jialuo was startled, his fingers stopped moving, and the two embraced quietly.

Zhou Qi said, "If Seventh Brother weren't a member of the Red Flower Society, I wouldn't be afraid. But now, if I leave him, not only will I hurt his feelings, but what will the other brothers in the society think of you?"

Chen Jialuo also smiled bitterly, "Sister Qi, don't think too much. As the saying goes, there's always a way out. At worst, I'll relinquish my position as leader of the Red Flower Society and quietly retire to the mountains with you. What do you say?"

Zhou Qi asked, "Are you serious or just trying to coax me?"

Chen Jialuo said, "Of course I'm serious."

Zhou Qi's resentment was relieved, and she couldn't help but feel excited. She scolded, "Why did you stop? Hurry up, it's so itchy inside."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jialuo pushed his fingers deeper inside.

Zhou Qi said, "Hmm, put one more finger in, my little hole wants... ah... a little to the left... yes... right there... dig harder."

Chen Jialuo dug triumphantly, and Zhou Qi's delicate body twisted back and forth. Her eyes were lightly closed, and her face was as red as if it had been painted with rouge.

After a while, Zhou Qi cried out, "Brother Chen, stop digging. Hurry up and put your penis in. My pussy is so itchy."

Chen Jialuo got up, took off his clothes, and inserted his erect penis into Zhou Qi's hole.

Zhou Qi cried out, "Oh... your penis is so powerful... fuck me harder... fuck my pussy to death."

Chen Jialuo held her plump waist with both hands and thrust hard. Zhou Qi's body moved in rhythm with him, her large, white breasts bouncing. Chen Jialuo's eyes burned with desire, and he leaned down to kiss her...

Zhou Qi was panting heavily, her cries echoing incessantly. Chen Jialuo leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Seventh Sister-in-law, is it good for me to fuck you?"

Zhou Qi said, "You pervert. I've already let you fuck me, and you still call me Seventh Sister-in-law. Are you trying to embarrass me?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Jialuo's movements became even more vigorous, and he continued to say things that made Zhou Qi blush and her heart race: "I just love fucking my sister-in-law. Seventh Sister-in-law, tell me, is it good for me to fuck you?" "

Yes, it's good. You're much better than your Seventh Brother!

" "What part is better ?

" "Your penis is better. Your mouth is better too."

"Will you let me fuck you again in the future?"

"Yes, oh... I'll be yours from now on. Yours alone. You can do whatever you want with me."

"What about Seventh Brother?"

"Let him be the turtle. My pussy will only be open to you from now on."

The two made love while exchanging lewd words, and soon Zhou Qi reached her climax. A warm stream of vaginal fluid gushed out from her body, and Chen Jialuo felt as if his penis was soaking in warm water, feeling exceptionally warm. He then lay on top of Zhou Qi.

Zhou Qi came to her senses and scolded, "You bad boy. You always make people say such indecent things."

Chen Jialuo laughed and said, "Seventh Sister-in-law, it was my fault. I won't dare to do it again."

Zhou Qi said, "You even dare to sleep with your sister-in-law, what else wouldn't you dare to do?"

Her words made Chen Jialuo's lust rise again, so he turned her over into a "doggy style" position. After entering her from behind, Chen Jialuo grabbed and kneaded her buttocks with both hands, sometimes pushing them in the middle and sometimes pulling them to the sides, jumping out of her anus. Chen Jialuo was experiencing an anus for the first time today, and he was also somewhat interested in this place, so he gently pressed his fingers on it.

Zhou Qi hadn't expected Chen Jialuo to touch that area, and her body trembled violently. She covered her anus with her hand and said, "No. Not here."

Chen Jialuo hadn't expected her reaction to be so strong, and the stimulation in his heart intensified. He comforted her gently, "Be good. Let me touch you, I won't put it in."

As he spoke, he pulled her small hand away and gently massaged her anus with his fingers, while his penis continued to thrust inside her.

After a while, the two finally reached their climax and then fell asleep in each other's arms...

The next morning, Chen Jialuo, Zhou Qi, Zhang Juanjuan, and Hongye packed their things and got into the carriage (Xin Yan had already been sent away by Chen Jialuo, the reason being obvious). This carriage was specially ordered by Chen Jialuo because he was concerned that Zhou Qi would have difficulty riding a horse with the child. The carriage was spacious and bright, like a mobile house. In addition to a bed, there was a table and chairs inside. Even with four or five people sitting inside, Chen Jialuo didn't feel cramped. However, such a large carriage required two horses to pull it. Chen Jialuo naturally took the lead in the carriage. The perfect husband. The three women sat inside, chatting and laughing loudly. Chen Jialuo listened intently, but could only vaguely make out words like rouge, clothes, and lipstick, and quickly grew bored.

The carriage had been traveling for half a day. Zhou Qi, a restless and active person, hadn't changed much even after marriage and children. She couldn't sit still for long and ran out, saying, "Brother Chen, are you tired? Let me help you."

Chen Jialuo asked, "Are you sure you can manage? Don't let the carriage tip over."

Zhou Qi replied, "Hmph, you underestimate me. Embroidery and sewing are second nature to me." "Isn't driving a carriage or riding a horse my forte?"

Chen Jialuo smiled, offering her his seat before turning and entering the carriage.

Zhou Qi hadn't experienced this kind of pleasure in a long time, and was instantly excited,

spurring her horse forward with great pleasure. Suddenly, she heard moans and panting from inside. Instinctively, she knew what was happening, thinking that these three were incredibly thirsty, already playing around in such a short time. Without thinking too much, she continued riding forward. After a while, the sounds from inside grew louder and louder. Unable to suppress her curiosity any longer, she slowed down and quietly lifted the carriage... Behind the curtain, three naked bodies were entangled together. Chen Jialuo's massive penis was thrusting in and out of Hongye's vagina, while Zhang Juanjuan and Hongye were in a 69 position. Hongye's lower body was being penetrated by Chen Jialuo, while her hands parted Zhang Juanjuan's legs, her mouth licking and kissing Zhang Juanjuan's vagina. Zhang Juanjuan's face was pressed against Hongye's mons pubis, watching Chen Jialuo's penis enter and exit Hongye's vagina, her hands playing with the full, hard clitoris on the tip of Hongye's labia.

After Hongye reached orgasm, Chen Jialuo helped Zhang Juanjuan up and lay down himself.

Zhang Juanjuan turned around and asked, "Which hole do you want to penetrate?"

Chen Jialuo said, "The one in the back."

Zhang Juanjuan turned around, forcefully spreading her buttocks apart with both hands. Hongye, holding the penis in her small hands, aimed it at Zhang Juanjuan's anus and said, "Madam, it's ready."

Zhang Juanjuan then sat down forcefully, welcoming the penis into her anus. She let out a long breath, her body moving up and down automatically, her hands caressing her breasts, moaning incessantly.

Hongye parted her labia and sat on Chen Jialuo's mouth, letting his tongue swirl inside her vagina, her body twisting and turning.

Soon, Hongye and Zhang Juanjuan remained in the same position, their mouths locked in a kiss, their hands kneading each other's breasts. At the same time, they emitted soul-stirring moans and gasps.

Zhou Qi watched intently as Chen Jialuo's penis entered and exited Zhang Juanjuan's anus, remembering how this wicked man had repeatedly caressed her anus the previous night. If she hadn't firmly objected, she probably would have been penetrated by him as well.

Seeing that Zhang Juanjuan had calmed down, Chen Jialuo knew she was running out of strength. He pushed Hongye away, laid Zhang Juanjuan down on the bed, lifted her legs apart, and thrust his penis in and out of her anus.

Zhang Juanjuan cried out, "Ah... um... hurry... I'm coming."

Chen Jialuo quickly pulled his penis out of her anus and inserted it into her vagina. A moment later, Zhang Juanjuan trembled, and vaginal fluid gushed out. Hongye, who was prepared, stuck out her tongue and licked the fluid squeezing out from around Zhang Juanjuan's vagina.

Chen Jialuo soaked it for a while before pulling out his penis. Seeing this, Hongye stuck out her tongue to clean up the remaining semen. Zhang Juanjuan also joined in, and their tongues kissed and licked Chen Jialuo's penis and testicles, creating a series of smacking sounds in the carriage. Only after cleaning his penis did the two beauties lie down to rest.

Despite the long journey, the small carriage was filled with boundless spring passion. Chen Jialuo was naturally delighted to be surrounded by three beauties, enjoying the great fortune of a tycoon. Zhou Qi initially maintained a degree of reserve, but under the allure of Chen Jialuo, Zhang Juanjuan, and Hongye, she finally joined their ranks. Hongye gave Chen Jialuo her anus, but Zhou Qi refused to let Chen Jialuo insert his penis, only allowing his fingers to go in. Chen Jialuo felt this was somewhat imperfect, but he didn't want to force Zhou Qi too much…

After traveling for more than ten days, they finally arrived in Beijing. After wandering for so many days, Chen Jialuo and Zhou Qi felt a great sense of familiarity seeing the bustling crowds and prosperous city again. Zhang Juanjuan and Hongye were even more excited, especially Hongye, who was used to the scenery of the northern frontier. Arriving in this prosperous capital, she was like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, her eyes wide with wonder, finding everything new and exciting. She was shouting and yelling in the carriage. If Chen Jialuo hadn't stopped her, she would have gotten off long ago. Chen Jialuo

finally returned to the Central Plains. Awaiting harsh reality and intoxicating good fortune…

The Book and the Sword (Continued) Chapter Ten: Bewitching Love, Thousands of Sentiments, Arousing Spring's Passion.

Chen Jialuo looked at the bustling city outside, his heart filled with countless emotions. He spotted Li Yuanzhi in the distance, feeling both delighted and curious. He thought, "She should have gone to Hangzhou with my fourteenth brother. How did she end up here?"

Just as he was about to greet her, he noticed a handsome young man standing beside her. Chen Jialuo recognized

him; it was Fukang'an, who bore a striking resemblance to him and had been held hostage that day. Seeing the two chatting and laughing so easily, Chen Jialuo knew they were on good terms and dared not speak rashly. He knew Fukang'an recognized him.

They drove their carriage to the Red Flower Society's branch headquarters, an inconspicuous little courtyard. Although the Red Flower Society's attempt to seize the palace had failed, the branch headquarters remained hidden. The branch leader was Yao Fang, a man in his forties, quite capable. Upon seeing Chen Jialuo, Yao Fang was overcome with emotion, tears welling in his eyes, and he knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly.

Chen Jialuo helped him up, saying, "We're brothers, no need for such formalities."

Yao Fang then stood up. Hongye came over and said she wanted to go out for a walk. Chen Jialuo agreed, and fearing they wouldn't know the way, he asked Yao Fang to arrange for a few brothers to accompany the three of them.

After Chen Jialuo sat down, he asked Yao Fang what had been going on these past few days. Yao Fang said, "These days, Qingyan hasn't been as strict with us as before, probably thinking we're in exile. But last month they established a department called the Jianghu Protectorate, specifically to manage Jianghu affairs and register the information of disciples from various gangs. They've even sent people to manage sects with more than a hundred members."

Chen Jialuo frowned and said, "That's a really vicious move."

"Indeed. Now, when Jianghu brothers see us, it's like they've seen wandering ghosts. They don't want to talk to us, for fear of getting into trouble,"

Yao Fang said with a bitter face.

Chen Jialuo said, "It's alright. Our Red Flower Society has never relied on others in our work. By the way, is the Fourteenth Master in Beijing now?"

Yao Fang said, "The Fourteenth Master returned from outside and only stayed for a day before heading to Hangzhou. However, the Fourteenth Madam is in Beijing now. I heard that her father was imprisoned by the Qing Dynasty. They say they suspect him of having connections with us and colluding with rebels. She stayed here to wait for an opportunity to rescue

him. I don't know the specifics, because she's been spending all her time with the Qing people, and we haven't dared to approach her." Chen Jialuo said, "Well, if she doesn't contact us, we shouldn't. To avoid causing her trouble. Also, we should have the people we've arranged in the court help her if necessary."

Yao Fang said, "We've already made quite a few efforts. Li Kexiu herself has no connection with us. It's just that..." "Fukang'an, who's in charge of this matter, is probably still angry and resentful because we coerced him last time, so he just wants to vent his anger on someone. I reckon Li Kexiu will be out in a few more days."

Chen Jialuo nodded, "That's true."

The two, having not seen each other for a long time, chatted happily, and before they knew

it, it was noon. Zhou Qi, Zhang Juanjuan, and Hongye returned from outside, all very excited. Chen Jialuo asked Hongye, "How was it? Was it fun?" Hongye nodded, her pretty face still showing excitement, and said, "If I had known this, I would have come back much earlier."

Chen Jialuo smiled and said, "It's all the same now. Does it mean this place is worse than before?"

After they talked for a while, Yao Fang said, "Chief, it's time for lunch."

After lunch, Zhang Juanjuan suggested to Chen Jialuo that they go to the Wang family in Shanxi. Because she hadn't told Chen Jialuo about her son before, he assumed she missed her people and wanted to go back to see them. He frowned slightly and said, "Can't you wait a while? Why the rush?"

Seeing his displeasure, Zhang Juanjuan knew he'd misunderstood and quickly said, "It's this matter that can't be delayed."

She then explained about her son.

Chen Jialuo, relieved, said, "In that case, alright. I'll have someone accompany you."

Zhang Juanjuan thought that she had offended the Wang family in the past, and having the Red Flower Society with her would make things much easier. Even if the Wang family had a problem with her, they would have to give the Red Flower Society some face. So she readily agreed, saying, "Okay. Hongye won't be coming with me. The journey is long, and I'm afraid I can't take care of her."

Chen Jialuo said, "Whatever you say."

Zhang Juanjuan packed her luggage, said goodbye to everyone, and then led several Red Flower Society brothers towards Shanxi.

Watching Zhang Juanjuan's departing figure, Zhou Qi asked Chen Jialuo beside her, "Chief, when are we going to Hangzhou?"

Chen Jialuo replied, "No rush. Let's rest here for a few more days. Aren't you tired after traveling for so long?"

Zhou Qi smiled and said nothing more.

Turning back to Li Yuanzhi, since arriving in Beijing, she had heard that her parents had been imprisoned by the court officials for failing to suppress bandits. Anxious and distraught, she didn't go to Hangzhou with Yu Yu, staying in Beijing alone to try and find connections and acquaintances. However, the world was cold and indifferent. Those who had previously called her father brothers were all reluctant to speak of the matter and made polite excuses, leaving Li Yuanzhi extremely depressed.

One day, as she was wandering aimlessly through the streets, she unexpectedly saw Fukang'an. She had seen him from afar at the Yonghe Temple that day, unaware that he was Emperor Qianlong's illegitimate son. But she thought that since Emperor Qianlong had spared the opportunity to wipe out the Red Flower Society for him, Fukang'an's position in Qianlong's heart must be considerable. Therefore, she decided to befriend him and stepped forward, bowing and saying, "This humble woman greets Lord Fu."

Fukang'an, caught off guard by a young and beautiful woman recognizing him, was startled for a moment, then looked closely at Li Yuanzhi and felt... Although the young woman before him wasn't a stunning beauty, she possessed crescent-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, clear, bright eyes, white teeth and red lips, and a fair, smooth body. Her charming smile made her appear even more radiant than peach blossoms. In addition, she exuded a wildness. Even though Fukang'an had been surrounded by women for a long time, those he had seen were all daughters of royal families and noble clans. These women were either gentle and charming or noble and generous, and they all treated him with utmost respect. Unlike this young woman, who was smiling, lively, and generous, he was momentarily flattered.

Seeing that he was only staring at her, Li Yuanzhi felt a little annoyed. Her pretty face hardened, and she called out again, "Lord Fu."

Fukang'an then snapped out of his reverie, noticing that the beautiful woman who had just been smiling had now transformed into a cold beauty. He quickly bowed and said, "I'm sorry. Just now, when I saw you, I remembered what an old monk told me before I left. That's why I was momentarily distracted."

Li Yuanzhi asked curiously, "Eh, what's your connection to me and the old monk?"

Fukang'an replied, "I happened to see an old monk begging for alms when I arrived, and I gave him some money... " After giving him a few coins, the monk said to me, "Amitabha! Judging from your full face and the rosy glow between your brows, you may be favored by a celestial being on your journey today. I've been wondering all this time how a celestial being could descend to earth in broad daylight. To encounter her so unexpectedly is truly a blessing from heaven for a good person!"

Li Yuanzhi listened to him standing there, talking eloquently. She knew he was spouting nonsense, but hearing him praise her beauty secretly pleased her. She thought to herself that this man was handsome and spoke quite sweetly, and her dislike for him lessened somewhat.

Fukang'an, who usually prided himself on his dashing and romantic nature, though not exactly a scholar of great learning, was well-versed in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Seeing the beauty's expression soften slightly, he was overjoyed and showered her with praise for a long time before finally getting to the point, asking, "May I ask your name, fairy?"

Li Yuanzhi then remembered her purpose in meeting him and replied, "My name is Li Yuanzhi, daughter of Li Kexiu, the Commander of Hangzhou."

Fukang'an, quick-witted, understood the fairy's purpose in seeking him out. Speaking of which, he had personally ordered the capture of Li Kexiu, and feigned surprise, saying, "Eh! I've long heard that Commander Li has a daughter who is exceptionally intelligent and beautiful. Seeing you today, I realize the ancients were right. I often see Commander Li, but I've never heard of you in Beijing?"

Upon hearing that he had met her father, Li Yuanzhi was both surprised and delighted, asking, "Lord Fu, have you met me? " "My parents? Are they alright?"

Fukang'an replied, "They're neither good nor bad."

Li Yuanzhi, seeing his seemingly pointless words, grew anxious and asked, "Why are you talking like that? It's like you're saying nothing at all."

Fukang'an said, "They're locked up in prison, not free. How can you say they're alright? But they have enough to eat and wear, so you can't say they're bad, can you?"

Li Yuanzhi said, "Lord Fu, can you help me save them?"

Fukang'an, with a troubled expression, pondered for a moment before saying, "Your parents have committed a crime punishable by death. I can't guarantee anything. I'll do my best."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuanzhi was greatly excited. She knew the young man's importance in Qianlong's eyes; his words meant there was a good chance for her parents' situation. She felt a certain liking for Fukang'an and found him more agreeable.

Seeing Li Yuanzhi's radiant smile, Fukang'an was delighted and said, "Miss Li, we can discuss saving your parents later. Do you have time now? Come with me for a stroll."

Li Yuanzhi, eager to please him, was more than happy to oblige.

The two wandered around until evening, when Fukang'an escorted Li Yuanzhi back to her inn. As he turned to leave, two men emerged from the shadows, one of whom was Teng Yilei, one of the Three Demons of Guandong. Back in Xinjiang, after Gu Jinbiao's death, the Six Demons of Guandong became two. Hahetai, after some time interacting with Teng Yilei, despised his character and left under some pretext. Teng Yilei then came to the Central Plains, where Fukang'an, establishing the Jianghu Protectorate, recruited him with a large sum of money.

Upon seeing the two men, Fukang'an was startled and asked, "What are you two doing here?"

Teng Yilei replied, "My lord has been missing for a day, and fearing something might have happened, he ordered us to search for him."

Fukang'an nonchalantly said, "The world is at peace now, and besides, it's right under the emperor's nose. What could possibly happen?"

Teng Yilei said, "Yes, I was overthinking it. By the way, I have something to report to you, sir."

Fukang'an asked, "What is it?"

Teng Yilei said, "The woman who was walking with you just now seems to have a significant connection with the Red Flower Society. You must be very careful, sir. Don't fall for her tricks. This woman looks beautiful on the outside, but she is actually extremely cunning." Upon

hearing that Li Yuanzhi was connected to the Red Flower Society, Fukang'an was alarmed and asked, "Is what you're saying something you saw with your own eyes or just hearsay?"

Teng Yilei said, "It's something I witnessed firsthand. I saw it with my own eyes."

He then recounted the grudges between the three brothers and Chen Jialuo, Huo Qingtong, Li Yuanzhi, and others in Xinjiang. As for the matter of the three of them being tricked by Li Yuanzhi, of course, they didn't mention it at all.

Fukang'an, upon hearing this, said, "Strange, she should be with the Red Flower Society, how come she's all alone in the capital?"

Teng Yilei said, "Sir, you've forgotten, her parents are currently imprisoned. She must have come to rescue them."

Fukang'an nodded and said, "That's right. Go immediately and inform Lord Hu, the prison warden, that from now on, no unauthorized personnel are allowed to visit Li Kexiu."

Teng Yilei obeyed and left. Another person asked, "What about Li Yuanzhi?"

Fukang'an said, "You immediately organize the brothers to guard this place for me, observe where she goes and who she contacts. Remember, write down all the places she goes and the people she contacts, and report back daily."

The man replied, "Yes."

Fukang'an turned back to look at Li Yuanzhi's room, which was lit up, and felt a pang of melancholy… While

Fukang'an outside was filled with complex emotions, Li Yuanzhi under the lamplight felt no different. The lights flickered, and Li Yuanzhi's heart pounded. With a woman's intuition, she sensed the adoring look in Fukang'an's eyes as he spoke. Sometimes she wanted to turn away, but another voice told her that the hope of saving her parents rested entirely on this young man.

So she had no choice but to stay and accompany Fukang'an on his travels. Fukang'an was handsome and good at flattering, and Li Yuanzhi found herself spending the day without even realizing it. Whether it was genuine or feigned, Li Yuanzhi felt as if she had returned to the days before she met Yu Yutong—carefree and happy. But ever since that day she met her dashing senior brother on the street, her heart had been drawn to him. She couldn't help but think about him and always stayed by his side, willing to endure any hardship. But once they were truly married, Li Yuanzhi discovered that everything was not as she had hoped. Yu Yutong only had his brothers in the Red Flower Society in his heart. For his brothers, he could disregard her feelings. When she was sad and depressed, he wouldn't try to cheer her up. She even sensitively discovered that Yu Yutong had another woman in his heart!

Li Yuanzhi sat there lost in thought, her mind drifting between Fukang'an's handsome face and Yu Yutong's hearty laughter. It wasn't until she heard the sound of the night patrolman striking the gong that she snapped out of her reverie. She gave a self-deprecating laugh, wondering what was wrong with her. She had only been away from her senior brother for a short while, and she was already thinking about another man!

The next morning, Li Yuanzhi was wondering what to do that day when there was a knock at the door. Opening it, she saw Fukang'an, who smiled and asked, "Sister, did I disturb your sleep?"

Li Yuanzhi laughed, "The sun's already high in the sky; even pigs should be awake by now."

Fukang'an said, "Yes. I misspoke."

Li Yuanzhi asked, "What brings you here so early?"

Fukang'an said, "Today I suddenly feel like going to the Swallow Tower in the north of the city for some drunken goose, but going alone would be a bit lonely, so I wanted to ask you to come along. Would you do me the honor?" Li Yuanzhi said

, "Since you've invited me so sincerely, of course I'll go. But with you playing around every day, when will my father's matter be resolved?"

Fukang'an said, "Don't worry, sister. This matter has been my..." "This is the most important thing on my mind. I will always keep it in mind. However, this matter is a bit troublesome now. Someone has accused your father of having ties with the Red Flower Society, and I don't know what to say right now. You know, the Emperor hates the Red Flower Society to the bone."

Li Yuanzhi's face hardened, and she said, "Nonsense! My father is a high-ranking official of the first rank. How could he lower himself to associate with those thieves?"

Fukang'an said, "That's what I think too. But this matter needs to wait until the Emperor calms down before it can be dealt with. We can't rush it!"

Li Yuanzhi said, "Thank you for your trouble, Brother Fu!"

Fukang'an said, "No trouble at all. Let's go now. If we go too late, there won't be any seats left!"

Hearing Fukang'an say this, Li Yuanzhi also became interested in this place. The two walked and talked, and arrived at the place Fukang'an had mentioned. Li Yuanzhi looked around and saw a small pavilion built on the shimmering lake. It was about the same size and style as the restaurants outside. A few flowers and plants surrounded the pavilion. Li Yuanzhi chuckled and said, "So this is the place? It looks quite ordinary to me." She paused, then added, "Well, places like this are common in Hangzhou, but they're extremely rare in the capital."

Fukang'an laughed, "Sister, you underestimate us people of the capital. If it were just for the scenery, it wouldn't attract so many people."

Li Yuanzhi said "Oh," and seeing that he was deliberately keeping her in suspense, she said nothing more.

Just then, a small boat emerged from the lake and came to the shore. It seemed to be there to pick up guests. Upon seeing Fukang'an, the boatman bowed and said, "Lord Fu, you're here early today."

Fukang'an didn't say anything, but went to the boat first and reached out to help Li Yuanzhi. Li Yuanzhi was taken aback, hesitating whether to let him help her. But when her eyes met Fukang'an's earnest gaze and the two boatmen's eyes that were looking this way, she couldn't bear to see him lose face in front of others. So she also extended her delicate hand and let Fukang'an's large hand hold hers. Only when Fukang'an's large hand firmly grasped hers did Li Yuanzhi realize how inappropriate her behavior was: "He may have been unintentional, but others might not have been."

After boarding the boat, Li Yuanzhi tried to pull her hand away, but Fukang'an wouldn't let go. Instead, he pulled her to the bow and sat her down. Li Yuanzhi's heart pounded, and her face flushed, being held by a man other than her husband. Fortunately, the journey wasn't long.

Soon, the small boat docked beside the building, but Fukang'an still wouldn't let go of Li Yuanzhi's hand. Li Yuanzhi thought to herself that there were many people coming and going in the restaurant; it wouldn't be good if she ran into someone she knew. So she struggled and finally broke free from Fukang'an's large hand. Seeing the surprised look in Fukang'an's eyes, she quickly said, "You go in first, I'll tighten my shoelaces."

After saying that, she squatted down and fiddled with them for a few moments before going to the lobby with Fukang'an. Actually, it was still quite a while before lunchtime, but all the dozen or so tables in the lobby were already full. Youyou came up and led Fukang'an and Li Yuanzhi to a private room upstairs. After Li Yuanzhi sat down, she noticed a stage in the center of the lobby, which seemed to be for performances. After ordering some snacks, Fukang'an chatted with Li Yuanzhi. Li Yuanzhi looked at the snacks and found them unremarkable, wondering to herself, "He described this place so wonderfully. But it's not like that at all now." Just

as Li Yuanzhi was wondering, she suddenly heard music coming from the stage. Li Yuanzhi had some knowledge of music, but she found the music short yet dynamic, and the instruments were ones she had never seen before. She became very interested and wondered where this talented person had come from to compose such a piece that was so different from tradition.

Just then, a line of elegantly dressed dancers, their style completely different from that of the Central Plains, filed down from the left side of the stage. Each of these dancers possessed a beautiful, athletic figure. As soon as they turned, applause, cheers, and shouts erupted from the audience. Li Yuanzhi nearly dropped her teacup. All six dancers were uniformly black-faced, almost like charcoal, yet their teeth were as white as ivory. Li Yuanzhi had never seen or heard of such a thing before. She thought, "Are there really such black people in this world, and they're even made up?"

Fukang'an seemed to read Li Yuanzhi's mind and laughed, "My dear sister, this woodcutter... " "They all come from a land beyond the reach of civilization, called India,"

Li Yuanzhi said upon hearing this. "I see. The world is truly full of wonders."

As they spoke, the beautiful women on the stage danced gracefully to the music. Traditional Central Plains dances emphasize gentleness and slowness, while this Indian dance was vigorous and powerful, every movement full of dynamism. Coupled with the infectious music, Li Yuanzhi felt an urge to try it herself. Looking around, she saw that the diners all had expressive faces, their bodies swaying gently to the rhythm. A few even stood up and danced along with the beauties on the stage, which she couldn't help but find amusing.

Soon, the dance came to an end. Fukang'an asked, "How are you?"

Li Yuanzhi replied, "I'm fine. Thank you. I haven't been this happy in a long time."

Seeing the joyful smile on Li Yuanzhi's beautiful face and the excitement sparkling in her eyes, making her even more stunning, Fukang'an was momentarily moved and blurted out, "If you're willing, I'll make sure you're happy forever."

Li Yuanzhi was startled, her heart fluttering, and said, "That would be wonderful. By the way, Brother Fu, I need to go back now."

Fukang'an said, "Okay."

After paying the bill, Fukang'an and Li Yuanzhi walked out. Seeing the small boat approaching, Li Yuanzhi went aboard first, and the two returned to the shore.

As Li Yuanzhi walked, she glanced at the handsome and elegant Fukang'an, her heart filled with complex emotions: "He may be interested in me, but I'm a married woman, how can I accept him? My parents' affairs depend on him,

so I can't distance myself from him." Fukang'an was also looking at Li Yuanzhi. He knew that Li Yuanzhi might not be indifferent to him. Having been through many relationships, he knew that a woman like Li Yuanzhi was not someone to be rushed into. Therefore, he preferred to play the long game. He was very confident in his charm, especially since Li Yuanzhi needed his help. Before long, he would be able to take this reserved yet beautiful woman to bed and enjoy her tender body.

The two walked along the road, each lost in their own thoughts. Suddenly, Li Yuanzhi felt a cool sensation on her face. She turned and realized it was drizzling. They smiled at each other and quickened their pace. Unexpectedly, the rain came suddenly and fiercely, quickly turning into a downpour that pounded on the ground. Soon, they were both soaked, and to make matters worse, they were outside the city. There wasn't even anywhere to take shelter. Finally, they spotted a dilapidated house ahead and quickly went inside. Fukang'an, patting his wet clothes, complained, "This awful weather! It was fine just a moment ago. How did it suddenly start raining like this?"

He wondered why Li Yuanzhi hadn't responded. He turned to look at her, and his gaze was immediately fixed on her. Li Yuanzhi stood gracefully in the doorway, gazing thoughtfully at the swirling rain. Her beautiful face was filled with worry, whether for the rain or for her parents, he couldn't tell.

Because she had worn only thin clothes when she went out that morning, now that they were soaked through, they clung tightly to her skin, accentuating her curvaceous figure even more. Through the wet clothes, her fair skin was faintly visible, and her two large, round breasts protruded forward, seemingly about to burst out of the yellow bodice covering them. Li Yuanzhi was unaware that her private parts were exposed until Fukang'an approached her.

She then realized what was happening, and following Fukang'an's eager gaze, she subconsciously looked down at herself. She gasped in surprise, clutching her chest with both hands, her pretty face flushing crimson. She glared at Fukang'an with her almond-shaped eyes, but Fukang'an could no longer control his desire. He reached out and embraced Li Yuanzhi, his mouth pounding against her face with kisses. Li Yuanzhi was caught off guard, pulled tightly into Fukang'an's arms, her face kissed by his rapid, powerful breaths. A surge of heat coursed through her body, her heart pounding wildly. By the time Fukang'an's lips touched hers, she was already limp, leaning against his arm. Fukang'an triumphantly swirled his tongue in Li Yuanzhi's mouth, sucking on her outstretched tongue. His hands, however, moved to her breasts, grasping and kneading one full breast, carefully feeling its softness and elasticity through her clothes.

Having been a seasoned womanizer, Fukang'an noticed that Li Yuanzhi's pretty face had turned bright red, and her half-closed eyes held boundless spring-like allure. He knew that Li Yuanzhi was already aroused, and that with just a little more effort, he could possess this woman.

So his lips left Li Yuanzhi's small mouth, and his eyes saw a clean spot inside. He leaned close to Li Yuanzhi's ear and said, "Sister, let's go over there."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuanzhi's previously confused and infatuated mind instantly cleared. Seeing herself lying in Fukang'an's arms, with one of his hands still grasping her chest, she was filled with shame and anger. She pushed Fukang'an away forcefully, took two steps back, and said, "Brother Fu, please have some self-respect!"

Fukang'an, seeing his efforts thwarted, was also frustrated, but his desire was burning fiercely, and he didn't care about anything else. He said, "Sister, although we have only known each other for a short time, I truly love you. Don't you feel it?"

Li Yuanzhi said, "I know, but I can't accept you. I'm sorry, Brother Fu. There are plenty of good girls in the world. With your talent, you could easily find someone a hundred times better than me." Fukang'an said

, "There are so many beautiful women in the world, but I only love you. Sister, could it be that you don't love me? " "Is there even a shred of affection?"

Li Yuanzhi said, "Brother Fu is so kind to me, I'm not made of stone, how could I be indifferent? Alas, alas..."

Li Yuanzhi hesitated whether to reveal that she already had a husband, but seeing Fukang'an's pleading expression, she steeled herself, thinking it would be better to let him give up, and said, "Alas, I am already with someone. I can only disappoint you."

Upon hearing this, Fukang'an was struck dumb, and after a long while, he said, "Are you really..." "Is this just an excuse?"

Li Yuanzhi said, "This concerns my sister's innocence; it cannot be treated lightly."

Fukang'an smiled bitterly, "I wonder which young master is so fortunate to have won your favor?"

Li Yuanzhi said, "He is just an ordinary man, not worthy of your attention. Let's not mention him."

Fukang'an said, "Since that's the case, why bother with him! If you reject me because I've been married before, you truly underestimate me. Am I some worldly person?" "Even if you've married a hundred men, you'll still be a pure and beautiful celestial being in my heart!"

Li Yuanzhi couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion and said, "Brother Fu, I'm very grateful for your kindness, but I'm not fortunate enough to have it in this life."

Fu Kang'an said, "Sister, to be honest, from the first moment I saw you, I secretly made up my mind that I would marry no one but you in this life! You can refuse me, but I will show you with my actions that only I can give you happiness and joy. I just hope you will give me a chance to prove it. Okay?"

Li Yuanzhi looked at Fu Kang'an and suddenly remembered how similar this scene was to when she was pursuing Yu Yutong back then. It truly was a case of "We are both wanderers in this world, why should we need to have known each other before?"

Li Yuanzhi's heart softened. Knowing that this was wrong, she still couldn't help but nod. Fu Kang'an was about to say something more when Li Yuanzhi interrupted him, saying, "Brother Fu, I understand your feelings completely." "My mind is in turmoil right now, please stop talking, okay?"

Fukang'an had no choice but to give up. Li Yuanzhi felt a pang of heartache seeing his dejected appearance. Thinking of Yu Yutong, she felt a little calmer, but still felt somewhat awkward. So she said, "Brother Fu, should I go back?"

Fukang'an looked at the torrential rain outside and asked, "Is it still raining so hard outside?"

Li Yuanzhi smiled and said, "Brother Fu, when I was little, I read a story in a book. One day, it was raining heavily, and pedestrians on the road were all running, except for one person who walked slowly. Others were curious and asked him why he didn't run faster. The man said, 'It's raining heavily ahead too, running there will only get me soaked.' I'm already wet, so what's there to be afraid of?"

Fukang'an was taken aback, and as he pondered her words, he saw Li Yuanzhi smile sweetly and run into the rain. In a short while, she disappeared without a trace, leaving only a faint fragrance in the air as proof that she had been there… October 23rd,
The Book and the Sword (Continued), Chapter Eleven: Loss of Chastity, Though Seemingly Heartless, There is Always Feeling

. Fu Kang'an looked at the heavy rain outside, ultimately daring not to rush out. He waited patiently until the rain stopped before returning home. Reaching his door, he saw a sedan chair emerge and stop beside him. The curtains were drawn back, revealing a stunningly beautiful face—it was Fu Kang'an's mother. She smiled at him and said, "An'er."

Fu Kang'an bowed and said, "Your son greets Mother."

Fu Hengshi said, "You haven't visited the Emperor for quite some time, have you?"

Fu Kang'an replied, "I've been busy with official duties lately, so I haven't had the time."

Fu Hengshi's face darkened. "Nonsense! Is there anything more important in the world than seeing the Emperor? You are so young; you must understand the importance and urgency of things. If the Emperor is displeased, even if you have performed a great service..." "It's no use. Do you understand?"

Fukang'an said, "Your son knows he was wrong. Your son will go to see the Emperor tomorrow."

Fu Hengshi then smiled and said, "Hmm, look at you, you're soaked to the bone. Go inside and wash up quickly. I'm going to the palace now."

Fukang'an lowered his hands and said, "Respectfully seeing off Mother."

Watching the sedan chair head towards the palace, Fukang'an thought that since he was a child, his mother had gone to the palace every three or four days to take care of the maids there. He knew that his wealth and honor were all because of his mother, so he was very grateful to her.

The next morning, when Fukang'an saw Li Yuanzhi opening the door with disheveled hair, slightly closed eyes, a flushed face, and seemingly weak, he was shocked and asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Yuanzhi smiled bitterly and said, "I think I caught a cold from being caught in the rain yesterday."

Fukang'an said, "Then hurry up and go to bed to rest."

Without waiting for a reply, he helped her weak body to bed, tucked her in, and said, "You rest, I'll go call the doctor for you."

Li Yuanzhi gratefully hummed in agreement, watching Fukang'an's departing figure, feeling a warm glow in her heart.

A short while later, Fukang'an returned hurriedly with the doctor. After taking Li Yuanzhi's pulse and writing a prescription, he said, "Your wife is just slightly unwell. Get the medicine according to this prescription, take it for two or three days, and she'll be fine."

Hearing the doctor refer to her as Fukang'an's wife, Li Yuanzhi felt a pang of shyness and didn't know how to respond, so she simply turned her head away, refusing to look at Fukang'an's slightly smiling face.

Fukang'an was secretly delighted. After generously rewarding the doctor, he summoned the innkeeper's assistant and ordered him to fetch the medicine. After the medicine was prepared, he sat down by the bedside and said, "Just for a moment of pleasure, look what happened! You got caught in the rain and now I have to serve you!"

Li Yuanzhi said, "If you find it troublesome, you can leave. I won't say you're heartless."

Fukang'an laughed, "What kind of person do you take me for? I'd take care of you for a lifetime, let alone a few days."

Li Yuanzhi scoffed. He said, "If you keep spouting these crazy words, I won't talk to you anymore."

Fukang'an's expression darkened, and he stopped speaking. Seeing him like this, Li Yuanzhi felt a little apologetic and uneasy. The two sat there in silence until the waiter brought over the prepared medicine. Fukang'an gently fed Li Yuanzhi the medicine bowl. Li Yuanzhi wanted to refuse, but seeing his sincere expression, she finally didn't say anything...

Under Fukang'an's meticulous care, Li Yuanzhi recovered her health on the third day. She was a naturally restless person, and after a few days of rest, as soon as she recovered, she went out. She wandered the bustling streets, but her heart was like boiling water, unable to calm down for even a moment. The image of Yu Yutong flashed through her mind, and then she thought of Fukang'an's affectionate eyes. Suddenly, she was bumped, her body swayed, and she almost fell to the ground. When she turned around, the middle-aged man who bumped into her was already far away. She then found a note in her bag. Opening it, she read, "Old Wang in the city, the Fourteenth Prince has arrived."

Li Yuanzhi was both surprised and delighted, thinking, "My senior brother is back."

So she quickened her pace and arrived at the location. Seeing that there seemed to be no suspicious people around, she knocked on the door. A young man opened the door. Seeing that it was Li Yuanzhi, he said, "Fourteenth Grandmother. You've finally come."

Li Yuanzhi didn't recognize him and only asked softly, "Is the Fourteenth Prince inside?"

The young man said, "Yes."

After closing the door, he led Li Yuanzhi to the main hall. When Li Yuanzhi arrived, she realized that there were more people present than just Yu Yutong. Most surprisingly, besides Wen Tailai and his wife, who had returned to the Central Plains earlier, and Wuchen, there were others. Chen Jialuo, Zhou Qi, and Huo Qingtong were also present. Seeing that everyone's expressions were solemn, as if they were discussing something important, she didn't interrupt and quietly sat down in a seat next to Yu Yutong. After listening for a while, she understood that Master Zhou Zhongying and Yu Yutong's senior uncle, Xuan Chong, who was now the head of Wudang Sect, had recently been arrested by the imperial court and escorted to Beijing. They had come to try to rescue them.

Xu Tianhong said, "The situation is different now than in previous years. None of us inside can speak up."

Wen Tailai slapped his thigh and said, "In my opinion, we don't need to be polite to those scoundrels. Now that we're all here, we can just break into the dungeon, or at worst, go back to the borderlands. I can't stand this humiliation."

Several people in the group echoed his words. Because Wen Tailai was of higher status than him, Xu Tianhong couldn't openly contradict him. He simply looked to Chen Jialuo for help. Chen Jialuo said, "Fourth Brother is truly a man of courage. However, this prison break needs careful consideration. We shouldn't use it unless absolutely necessary. Little do we know that the thieves have already set a trap for us, just waiting for us to walk into it." Wen

Tailai remained silent after hearing this. Chen Jialuo then asked Xu Tianhong, "Seventh Brother, do you have any brilliant plan?"

Xu Tianhong smiled and said, "Originally, I didn't. But now, seeing Fourteenth Sister, I have some ideas. I just don't know if they'll work."

Wen Tailai said, "I hate it when you speak so hesitantly. Just say what you mean. Even if you're wrong, it won't kill you!"

Xu Tianhong countered, "Brothers, do you know whose good fortune enabled us to escape unscathed from the palace that day?"

The heroes looked at each other, thinking that it wasn't anyone's doing; it was clearly due to everyone's efforts. However, they knew that Xu Tianhong was exceptionally intelligent and wouldn't speak without reason, so they all listened quietly to what he would say next. Xu Tianhong said, "Fukang'an's contribution was the greatest. Do you all agree?"

Everyone suddenly realized that the Red Flower Society was actually surrounded that day. Not only were there countless experts in the inner palace, but there were also thousands of troops outside. If Fukang'an hadn't been captured and Qianlong hadn't let them go, they would have all been wiped out that day. With this thought in mind, the clever person already knew Xu Tianhong's intention: to capture Fukang'an again.

Chen Jialuo laughed, "We all know what Seventh Brother means, but Qianlong already suffered a loss last time. Who knows if he'll be willing to let us off again for this kid?"

This was what everyone wanted to know. They looked at Xu Tianhong, who confidently replied, "Qianlong wouldn't do it for anyone else. But for Fukang'an, Qianlong would gladly do it."

Puzzled, Xu Tianhong continued, "Fukang'an is Qianlong's illegitimate son. If he were to exchange his son's life for the lives of a few others, I'm afraid Qianlong wouldn't be at a loss!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present was stunned. Li Yuanzhi couldn't believe it and asked, "Seventh Brother, is this true?"

Xu Tianhong countered, "I heard you two have a close relationship. Didn't he tell you anything?"

Li Yuanzhi blushed, thinking that he only ever talked nonsense when he was with her; he never spoke seriously. Thinking this, they made up their minds to interrogate him thoroughly when they met again.

Unfortunately, neither Xu Tianhong, with his exceptional strategy, nor Li Yuanzhi, with her remarkable intelligence, could have imagined that Fukang'an himself was unaware that he was Qianlong's illegitimate son!

It turned out that Xu Tianhong had harbored doubts ever since their escape. Simply considering Fukang'an as the son of a high-ranking official wouldn't have been enough to make Qianlong so readily let the Red Flower Society go. He hated the Red Flower Society to the core and wanted to eliminate them; he wouldn't even spare his own brother, Chen Jialuo, let alone others. Therefore, after returning to the Central Plains, Xu Tianhong mobilized the society's elite to investigate. They finally discovered that Fukang'an's mother, Lady Fuheng, had an ambiguous relationship with Qianlong. Combining this with other circumstances, Xu Tianhong reached this conclusion!

Everyone looked incredulous after hearing Xu Tianhong's words. Wen Tailai slapped his thigh and said, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go and grab this kid right now!"

Xu Tianhong said, "After his lesson last time, this kid is now surrounded by expert guards. We can't make a move on him too quickly."

"What are you talking about? Is he more troublesome than Emperor Qianlong? Didn't we capture Qianlong last time?"

Wen Tailai said anxiously.

Huo Qingtong laughed, "Fourth Brother, don't be hasty. Seventh Brother means we need to find a good way to act, otherwise, even if we rescue Old Master Zhou and the others to capture Fukang'an, we'll end up losing several brothers as well. Wouldn't that be a loss?"

Xu Tianhong laughed, "Exactly. Miss Huo truly understands me. In my opinion, we'll need Fourteenth Sister's help with this."

Li Yuanzhi asked, "How can I help?"

Xu Tianhong said, "You're quite familiar with him. He seems to have no suspicion of you, so it's best for you to make your move."

Li Yuanzhi fell silent upon hearing this. Xu Tianhong continued, "This matter also concerns your parents. When we capture Fukang'an, we can get Emperor Qianlong to release your parents as well. Wouldn't that be even better?"

Li Yuanzhi said, "Let me think about it."

With that, she stood up, ignoring the astonished looks of the others, and walked out. As Li Yuanzhi pondered this, someone behind her asked, "Junior Sister, have you made up your mind?"

Li Yuanzhi turned around and saw Yu Yutong. Seeing that he hadn't uttered a single kind word in the past few days, she was greatly displeased. She snorted and turned around, coldly saying, "You all usually boast of your literary and martial prowess, claiming to be proficient in everything? Now you come to me, a weak woman, and I can't help you with anything."

Yu Yutong said, "I just thought about it, and I think Seventh Brother's words make a lot of sense. Since Fukang'an is familiar with you, he probably won't be wary of you. With a little effort, you can easily capture him!"

Li Yuanzhi said, "Aren't you usually known for your righteousness? Now you're asking me to do such a despicable thing? Aren't you ashamed?"

Yu Yutong said, "How can one be friends with a dog like Fukang'an?" "We talk about loyalty and friendship, but we have to be discerning about the people involved, right?"

Li Yuanzhi suddenly retorted, "I know what kind of person he is. I don't need you to lecture me. I didn't befriend him, but I befriended your Red Flower Society, and what did I get in return? My parents were imprisoned because of it. And you, you all just ignored them and left without a trace. I could tolerate that. But what about you? Did you ever consider me your wife? Aren't my parents your parents? Yet you left too. Now, I heard Uncle Zhou was arrested, and everyone's come to rescue him. I want to ask, is this how the Red Flower Society behaves? Sister Zhou is a member of the Red Flower Society, so am I an outsider? Or is it that you have no status in the Red Flower Society, so they don't respect me either?"

Yu Yutong, his face turning pale and then red from her barrage of words, stammered, "Aren't we here to rescue our parents too?"

Li Yuanzhi said: "I've thought it over, and I disagree with your plan. My parents are high-ranking officials in the imperial court, and they hate you traitors more than anything in their lives. They have served the court faithfully and diligently throughout their lives, and I don't want to tarnish their reputation because of this. If we rescue him this way, I'm afraid he will blame me later."

Yu Yutong said, "Uncle, considering your filial piety, how could he blame you? Besides, what's so great about being an official in the imperial court? After we rescue him, we can find a quiet place and live a peaceful life, isn't that good?"

Li Yuanzhi shook her head and said, "Brother, many things cannot be changed. Just like you are willing to give up everything for the Red Flower Society, my father is the same kind of person. If he knew he was rescued by the Red Flower Society, he would probably be more heartbroken than if he were killed."

Yu Yutong said, "Uncle Zhou, Daoist Xuanchong, don't you want to rescue him either?"

Li Yuanzhi said, "Brother, your Red Flower Society has many people and great power. " "Why do you insist on finding me? Do you really want to frame me for being unfilial and put my parents in dire straits?"

Yu Yutong was also getting angry, saying, "I think these are just your excuses. It seems what others said was true; you have really been bewitched by Fukang'an."

Li Yuanzhi was struck dumb, turned around, her face pale with disappointment, tears welling up in her eyes, and said, "Senior brother, do you know how deeply those words hurt me?"

Yu Yutong said, "If you don't want people to suspect you, you must prove it."

Li Yuanzhi said, "Since you've said that, then I'll make it clear to you now. I don't care how you deal with Fukang'an, or even if you kill him. But don't even think about me helping you!"

Yu Yutong knew her temper, and seeing that she had said this much, there was no room for negotiation. Remembering that Xu Tianhong and the others were still waiting for a reply, he turned and left. Seeing him leave so abruptly, Li Yuanzhi was even more heartbroken. Tears streamed down her face, and she finally couldn't hold back any longer and squatted down to sob. After

crying for a while, she felt a little better. She stood up and was about to go talk to Zhou Qi when she heard Daoist Wuchen's voice rise high in the hall: "What do you mean by 'putting her in an unjust position'? That's truly laughable. In my opinion, it's because she couldn't bear to give up the comfortable life of an official's daughter. Fourteenth brother, you are still young and don't know how unpredictable people's hearts are. I was the same way back then. Look at this arm of mine; I was fooled by a young lady of an official's daughter and had it cut off. Heh heh, a lesson from the past! We must be careful!"

Yu Yutong said, "I always keep the affairs of the gang in mind. I dare not forget them for a moment. I feel very guilty for not being able to complete the mission this time."

Chen Jialuo said, "Fourteenth Brother, you are too kind. Fourteenth Sister really has her own reasons for this, so there is no need to force her. We can find another way now. It's just that it has caused discord between you and your husband, and that's why I feel bad. You should go and apologize to her first, so as not to chill her heart."

Yu Yutong said, "She is fine now. Don't worry about her. Saving lives is the priority now. Although I am not very talented, I know the saying that three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang. Let me stay here and discuss with you brothers."

Wen Tailai exclaimed, "Fourteenth Brother is truly... " "He's a true man!"

Wu Chen nodded, "Putting public interest before private matters is the mark of a real man. If all the brothers in the society were like Fourteenth Brother, what great things couldn't we accomplish!"

Zhou Qi said, "Fourteenth Brother, let me go see her for you."

Xu Tianhong said, "Don't go. Let her cool off first, let her learn a lesson, maybe she'll change her mind tomorrow."

Wu Chen smiled, "Exactly. We need to let her know this isn't the place for her to act like a spoiled princess."

Li Yuanzhi had no interest in listening to what the others were saying. Only one thought flashed through her mind: "These people are all cold-hearted by nature. They've never treated me like one of their own from beginning to end. What's the point of staying here like this? Hurry up!" "Come on, hurry up..."

Li Yuanzhi ran back to the inn where she was staying. She saw Fukang'an drinking inside, and without a word, she grabbed the wine cup and started chugging. Fukang'an was startled by her action. Later, seeing her gulp down several mouthfuls and then slump onto the table, sobbing, he asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Yuanzhi looked up, wiped away her tears, and said, "Don't ask so many questions. Drink a few more cups with me."

Fukang'an smiled and said, "It's rare to see you in such high spirits; of course, I'll gladly accept."

Neither of them spoke, but they drank until their cups were empty. Li Yuanzhi, unable to hold her liquor, became increasingly confused and incoherent after a few more cups. Fukang'an said, "Alright. Stop drinking."

Li Yuanzhi said, "Drinking... this wine... it's as weak as water..."

Seeing that she was truly drunk, Fukang'an helped her up, saying, "Alright, alright. Let me help you to bed to rest for a while. Then we'll continue drinking, okay?"

Li Yuanzhi said, "You... you can't lie to me."

Fukang'an helped her to bed, took off her shoes, covered her with a blanket, and then used a towel moistened with warm water to carefully wipe her face. Li Yuanzhi hummed in agreement and said, "Brother Fu, you're so good to me... Sometimes I think... if I had met you earlier... maybe I would have married you... and become your wife."

Fukang'an said, "A woman as clever, beautiful, and charming as you, who wouldn't love you?"

Li Yuanzhi said, "No... you mean..." "Wrong... Senior Brother... He... He doesn't like me... His brothers all dislike me too. Tell me, what's wrong with me? Why do they always treat me like an outsider?"

Fu Kang'an's heart skipped a beat. He thought, "Her senior brother is her husband, Yu Yutong. So, her so-called brothers should be members of the Red Flower Society. Could it be that she went to see someone from the Red Flower Society just now? Hmm, that's it. She must have gone to see someone from the Red Flower Society, and then they had a language barrier, which is why things turned out this way."

With this thought in mind, he wanted to ask the person who had been following Li Yuanzhi earlier that day if they could find any clues about the Red Flower Society. Thinking this, he said, "Sister Zhi, you should rest well. I have to leave for a while."

Li Yuanzhi unconsciously grabbed his hand and said, "Don't go... Talk to me... I'm so bored... Do you even hate me now?"

Seeing her flushed face, making her even more beautiful, and her misty eyes even more captivating, Fukang'an couldn't help but lean down and kiss her cheek, saying, "You are the angel in my heart. I only have love for you, never any dislike."

Li Yuanzhi smiled sweetly and said, "You're so glib. I don't know which of your words are true and which are false."

Fukang'an found her smile as beautiful as a flower, truly radiant and incomparably stunning. He suddenly felt excited and forgot to ask about the Red Flower Society. He simply sat on the bed, gently stroking Li Yuanzhi's pretty face with both hands, saying, "Every word I say to you is true."

Li Yuanzhi, feeling the effects of the alcohol, didn't speak, but quietly closed her beautiful eyes, listening to Fukang'an's cheesy words of love. Suddenly, in a dreamlike state, she felt Fukang'an's hot lips moving on her face, earlobe, and neck, and she couldn't help but whisper a soft call.

Unable to contain his desire any longer, Fukang'an pulled back the covers and placed his hands on Li Yuanzhi's high breasts, kneading them. He then removed Li Yuanzhi's top, revealing a red undergarment underneath, along with her exposed arms and a fair, jade-like abdomen. Fukang'an ripped off the red undergarment, instantly exposing Li Yuanzhi's upper body. Her smooth, supple skin and breasts, like freshly steamed Shandong buns, were white, round, and large, with a pair of scarlet nipples on their peaks. Unable to contain his excitement, Fukang'an grasped one breast in each hand, feeling an indescribable softness and smoothness. He was momentarily captivated, only snapping back to reality upon hearing Li Yuanzhi's muffled groans. He then kneaded Li Yuanzhi's breasts with increasing force, as if kneading dough, while his mouth occasionally kissed and licked them. Li Yuanzhi's cries grew louder and louder.

Fukang'an stopped, untying Li Yuanzhi's belt and removing her lower garments. Instantly, a pair of round, snow-white legs and the dark forest between her legs came into Fukang'an's view. Fukang'an sat beneath Li Yuanzhi, spreading her legs, revealing the clear stream of hair in the forest. Fukang'an's hands first caressed her calves, then slowly moved along the beautiful curves of her legs towards the top of her pubic area, before turning downwards to caress her thighs.

Li Yuanzhi barely opened her eyes and said, "Brother Fu... please... don't do this."

Fukang'an said gently, "Sister Yuanzhi, I love you so much. Please give in to me this once, okay? I will cherish you and love you a thousand times more from now on, and I will never let you suffer any more grievances."

As he spoke, his left thumb and forefinger spread open her labia majora, revealing the bright red flesh inside. A few drops of water fell onto the sheets, and some still clung to the pubic hair beside the entrance, making it look even more lewd. His right hand slowly reached into the wet vaginal opening, first lifting it upwards, then downwards, and finally thrusting in and out repeatedly. The semen in her vagina flowed out faster and faster, more and more. Li Yuanzhi's delicate body swayed like a beautiful snake, and she made moaning sounds that made people's hearts tremble. Fukang'an felt that the time had come, so he took off his clothes, squatted down under Li Yuanzhi, opened Li Yuanzhi's labia with one hand, revealing the vaginal opening inside, and with the other hand... Holding his large penis against her vagina, he didn't rush in. Instead, he massaged the entrance with his penis for a while before aiming the glans at the opening. Just as he was about to insert it, Li Yuanzhi suddenly covered her genitals with her hands and said, "Brother Fu... please... I really can't."

Fu Kang'an was already at his limit. Hearing this, he didn't say anything. He tried to pry Li Yuanzhi's hands off her genitals. Li Yuanzhi's martial arts skills were far superior to Fu Kang'an's, but now, with the effects of alcohol, her strength was somewhat lacking. In addition, her feelings for Fu Kang'an were not unintentional, but rather inexplicable. Her hands were easily pulled away by Fu Kang'an, and then his large penis slowly squeezed in, gently entering the depths of Li Yuanzhi's body. An indescribable feeling filled Li Yuanzhi's heart, a mixture of the pain of losing her virginity and the pleasure of passion, causing Li Yuanzhi to cry out.

Fukang'an, having finally possessed Li Yuanzhi, thrust his large penis into the body of the beauty he had longed for, felt an indescribable pleasure. He pressed his entire body against Li Yuanzhi's soft, boneless form, and whispered in her ear, "Yuanzhi, I've finally got you. From now on, you're my woman. No one can take you away from me again."

Li Yuanzhi was stunned at first, then cried out, "You...you wicked man...you've ruined me!"

She then began to pound Fukang'an's back with her small fists, which he endured. With each pounding, his lower body began to move slowly. As the penis was withdrawn and inserted into Li Yuanzhi's body, Li Yuanzhi's "pounding" became weaker and weaker until she was hugging Fukang'an's body, moaning and crying out loudly. Her body moved intentionally or unintentionally to meet Fukang'an's thrusts. After a storm of attacks, Fukang'an switched to a "nine shallow, one deep" method to stimulate Li Yuanzhi. His hands also grabbed and squeezed Li Yuanzhi's breasts. Two sensitive spots on Li Yuanzhi's body were played with by Fukang'an. For a moment, she felt as if she was floating in the air, and her body twisted even more violently.

Looking at Li Yuanzhi's face, which was filled with lust, Fukang'an's heart stirred. He asked, "Yuanzhi, is it comfortable?"

Li Yuanzhi subconsciously hummed, "Mmm...so comfortable."

After saying that, she suddenly realized her mistake and couldn't help but shyly scold, "You're so naughty!"

Fukang'an laughed and his movements became faster and more powerful until he brought Li Yuanzhi to the peak of pleasure. Still not satisfied, his penis inside Li Yuanzhi was still hard. When he pulled it out, a stream of semen flowed onto the bed. Fukang'an, his playful nature rekindled, reached out with his right hand to probe Li Yuanzhi's vagina again. Li Yuanzhi, seeing Fukang'an's lingering desire, said weakly, "Brother Fu... I'm tired. Please let me go."

Fukang'an reluctantly extended his finger, then put it in his mouth and sucked on it, saying, "The taste down there is quite delicious. I want to savor it again another day."

Li Yuanzhi felt both ashamed and touched that he was so unafraid of the unpleasantness of eating what was coming from his genitals. Seeing his wicked grin, she quickly turned her head away, not daring to look at Fukang'an again. Only after his passion subsided did Fukang'an remember he still had important business to attend to.

After tucking Li Yuanzhi in, Fukang'an carefully left the room and went downstairs. A man appeared there. Fukang'an asked, "Who did Miss Li go with today?"

The middle-aged man replied, "Reporting to Master, I followed Miss Li all the way, but I didn't see her contact anyone along the way. However, she later entered a farmhouse in the west of the city and didn't come out for about an hour. I was afraid of disturbing Miss Li, so I didn't dare follow her in."

Fukang'an asked, "Who is this family? Do you know?"

The middle-aged man said, "I just checked. The head of the household is surnamed Wang. He's usually very proper and I've never heard of him making enemies."

Fukang'an sneered, "Is that so? Then I'll see just how proper he is. Pass on my order: go to Lord Wang in the inner palace and request several of his men who have met at the Yonghe Palace and the Red Flower Society. Have them take turns guarding outside the Wang family's house day and night, reporting intelligence every half hour."

The man obeyed and left.

The Book and the Sword (Continued) Chapter Twelve: Reunion, Deep Affection and Envy of the Couple

After discussing for a long time without reaching a conclusion, the Red Flower Society dispersed to do their own thing. Chen Jialuo and Huo Qingtong naturally stayed together.

It turned out that after Huo Qingtong gathered the tribesmen together, she entrusted them to her uncle's management. Her uncle, knowing it was for Chen Jialuo's sake, secretly lamented that a woman cannot stay at home forever, but Qingtong was determined, so he had no choice but to give up. That's why she was able to rush to the Central Plains immediately upon receiving Chen Jialuo's letter. Unexpectedly, Chen Jialuo had been having affairs with Zhou Qi, Zhang Juanjuan, and Hongye along the way, delaying his journey. Therefore, Huo Qingtong arrived in Hangzhou a few days earlier, and later, with the Medicine Flower Society, came to Beijing to rescue Zhou Zhongying. Fortunately, Hongye, having just arrived in Beijing, insisted on playing for a few days before going to Hangzhou; otherwise, Chen Jialuo would have left much earlier, and the two would have missed each other again.

In fact, when Huo Qingtong and the heroes of the Red Flower Society arrived in Beijing, Chen Jialuo was just preparing to leave. Suddenly, he heard someone outside announce that Master Wuchen and Wentai had arrived. He was both surprised and delighted, thinking that news of his arrival in Beijing shouldn't have reached Hangzhou so quickly. Therefore, their visit wasn't for him, but for something else, and something important at that, otherwise they wouldn't have all come here. Thinking this, he went outside. Master Wuchen and the others were overjoyed to see Chen Jialuo, and Chen Jialuo was even more delighted. He saw a strikingly beautiful woman smiling at him in the crowd—none other than Huo Qingtong, whom he hadn't seen for many days.

Out of respect for the crowd, Chen Jialuo had to suppress his joy, offering her a smile before reminiscing with the assembled heroes. He learned that three days prior, Zhou Zhongying and his wife, along with the current Wudang sect leader, Master Xuanchong, had been arrested by the Jianghu Protectorate and taken to Beijing. Since Zhou Zhongying was Xu Tianhong's father-in-law, and his son had died for the Red Flower Society, the entire society owed him a favor. Therefore, upon hearing this news, the entire Red Flower Society mobilized.

Finally separated from the heroes, Chen Jialuo found an opportunity to be alone with Huo Qingtong. Seeing that she remained beautiful even after several days apart, Chen Jialuo felt comforted. He grasped her soft, damp hand, and the two poured out their longing and love for each other.

Chen Jialuo held her small hand and kissed it, smiling, "The peach blossoms are still red, and your jade hands are as fragrant as ever."

Huo Qingtong blushed and scolded, "You naughty boy."

Chen Jialuo laughed heartily, pulling her into his arms, stroking her back with his hands, his face brushing against her hair, inhaling its delicate fragrance. Huo Qingtong was as docile as a kitten in his arms, and whispered, "Brother Chen, tell me. How many young girls have you tricked these days?"

Chen Jialuo was already prepared, so he immediately told her about Zhang Juanjuan and Hongye. As for Zhou Qi, he hesitated. If he didn't want to talk about it, since Zhang Juanjuan and Hongye were single, marrying them wouldn't be a problem. But Zhou Qi was a married woman, and moreover, the wife of his own brother, which was unacceptable to society both morally and legally. Chen Jialuo pondered for a long time, but still didn't know how to bring it up.

Hearing Chen Jialuo's words, Huo Qingtong nestled in his arms and chuckled, "Brother, you really have a knack for this! You've given me two sisters all at once. Is Sister Hongye the one who poured us tea earlier?"

Chen Jialuo was still thinking about Zhou Qi and absentmindedly answered yes. Huo Qingtong said, "That girl is quite lovely, beautiful as a flower, and clever and quick-witted."

After a while, seeing that Chen Jialuo hadn't replied, she looked up at him and asked slyly, "Judging from your expression, is something troubling you?"

Seeing her question, Chen Jialuo steeled his resolve, thinking to himself, "Since I intend to be with Sister Qi..." " Since we've been together for life, Qing Tong is my wife. She'll find out sooner or later anyway, so

I might as well tell her now and put an end to it." With this thought, his tone suddenly turned heavy. "Qing Tong, we're husband and wife, I won't hide anything from you. But this matter is truly significant, I'm just afraid... I'm just afraid you'll look down on me if I tell you!"

Huo Qing Tong said in surprise, "What kind of astounding things has a bookish, well-mannered person like you done? Tell me."

Chen Jialuo then recounted his mutual affection with Zhou Qi, omitting the part about Li Gu Zi's insults towards Zhou Qi. After finishing, he felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from his heart. Ever since he and Zhou Qi became lovers, this matter had weighed heavily on his mind, especially after arriving in the Central Plains. Now, finally having someone to confide in, he felt immense joy.

Hearing this, Huo Qingtong's disbelief surprised Chen Jialuo, but it wasn't the contempt and anger he expected. Huo Qingtong pulled away from Chen Jialuo's embrace, smoothed her slightly disheveled hair, and asked, "You only care about staying with your Qi-mei, but have you thought about how to stay? You know Xu Tianhong is your brother. If this gets out, hehe, Chief Chen, you'll be one of the most hypocritical men in the world, the number one lecher in the martial arts world."

Seeing her calm expression, Chen Jialuo relaxed and laughed, "I didn't expect that. But with a wife as intelligent as you, this matter will be easily resolved."

Huo Qingtong said, "There's no way to solve this. I'm afraid I can't help you."

Chen Jialuo's expression also changed, his previous ease dispelled by a wave of melancholy. Huo Qingtong said, "Unless you can give up your current position and retire to the mountains, then Sister Zhou Qi can certainly secretly go with you. Although this is difficult, with careful planning, it's not impossible to deceive everyone. Otherwise, no matter how eloquently you two talk, the world won't accept it."

Chen Jialuo said, "I have indeed considered retiring to the mountains. Alas, let's talk about this after we rescue Old Master Zhou."

Huo Qingtong laughed, "Since you've already tricked Sister Zhou Qi, why don't you go all the way and trick the others, like Sister Luo Bing and Sister Yuan Zhi, into coming to you as well?"

Chen Jialuo's expression changed drastically, and he smiled bitterly, "I already feel like I'm in a huge mess by getting involved with just one of them. You still... " " Come and make me happy."

Huo Qingtong said, "This matter is a huge deal in your Han Chinese eyes, but it's just a trivial matter in our tribe. In our tribe, we'd take even our own brothers, let alone sworn brothers."

Chen Jialuo said, "Huh, I've heard my master mention this before. I always thought he was joking, but now that you're saying it, is it true?"

Huo Qingtong said, "How could it be false? Our tribe has always believed in true nature. What is true nature? It's actually respecting people's inner pursuit of feelings and life. Like you Han Chinese, you always keep your love hidden in your hearts, afraid to express it. How can you have any happiness?"

Chen Jialuo laughed, "Then after you people get married, you even have to be wary of your own brothers. On this day..." "Your life isn't stable!"

Huo Qingtong rolled her eyes at Chen Jialuo and said, "Do you think your life is stable? I don't think so. Whether a life is stable or not depends on the relationship between the two people. It has nothing to do with faith. People like you who respect Confucianism and Mencius' teachings are still full of thieves and prostitutes. You can be said to have deeply understood the essence of Confucius. In the end, you inevitably stumble. If Confucius knew in the afterlife, he could only feel saddened."

Chen Jialuo laughed, "You're so sharp-tongued. I can never win an argument with you."

Huo Qingtong smiled sweetly and suddenly lowered her voice, "Sister Zhou Qi's skills in bed must be something you're very fond of. Otherwise, you wouldn't have gotten her into this huge trouble."

Chen Jialuo looked at Huo Qingtong upon hearing this. Huo Qingtong asked a question Embarrassed by her words, her face flushed crimson, yet she still looked radiant and beautiful. Chen Jialuo's heart stirred, and he whispered in her ear, "I only love your charm in bed; in my eyes, no one can compare to you."

Huo Qingtong's pretty eyes sparkled, and she playfully punched Chen Jialuo's chest with her small fist, saying, "You're so naughty."

Since his encounters with the three women, Chen Jialuo had become more familiar with the ways of love and romance. Seeing Huo Qingtong's shy and charming appearance, he felt both love and pity for her, and said, "It's been quite a while since I've seen you. I wonder how your skills have improved? Have you been practicing in secret?"

Huo Qingtong could no longer bear to look at Chen Jialuo's ambiguous smile, and she buried her face in his chest, her small fists making loud thumping sounds as she drew her own. Chen Jialuo grasped her hands, lowered his head, and kissed her face. Huo Qingtong, feigning resistance, tilted her head back, letting Chen Jialuo kiss her forehead, cheeks, and ears until their lips met, their tongues intertwined...

After a long while, they pulled away, embracing tightly. Chen Jialuo said, "Tong-mei, I want you."

Huo Qingtong replied, "Me too. Let's wait until tonight, okay?"

Chen Jialuo's desire was ignited; he couldn't wait until tonight. His hands roamed over Huo Qingtong's body, and he said, "No. I can't wait! I want it now."

Huo Qingtong sensed his longing for her in his tone, and was truly delighted. Unable to refuse him further, she said, "It's broad daylight now, here... if others find out, it'll be so embarrassing."

Hearing her predicament, Chen Jialuo immediately said, "Shall we find an inn outside?"

Huo Qingtong, though secretly willing, couldn't say it outright, so she rested her head on his shoulder and softly hummed in agreement.

The two hurriedly arrived at a large inn and told the waiter they wanted a private room. When Chen Jialuo and Huo Qingtong followed the waiter to the room, they were stunned. They had assumed a private room would simply be a small, partitioned room, but from the outside it looked more like a detached mansion. The room was surrounded by flowers, trees, and shrubs, partially concealing the house. Inside, there were four rooms, not including a study and living room; the only thing missing was a kitchen.

The waiter asked Chen Jialuo if he wanted the house. Chen Jialuo thought that he was only going to stay with Huo Qingtong for a short while, and it would be a waste to ask for such a house. Just as he was about to refuse, Huo Qingtong spoke up first, "That's right. We'll take it. How much?"

The waiter replied, "Ten taels a day, 270 a month, excluding meals."

Huo Qingtong paid for the month, and the waiter happily took the money and left.

Chen Jialuo asked, "Tongmei, are you planning to stay here long-term?"

Huo Qingtong replied, "Isn't this place good? I stayed here when I was in the capital. I don't want to share a place with them. Besides, you can invite your sister Hongye and sister Qi to stay too. There are plenty of rooms. And besides, I don't know if you've thought about it, with such a large group of you staying together, coming and going in groups, it might attract the attention of some people."

Chen Jialuo said, "That's true. I'll talk to them about it later."

He paused, then smiled and said, "Let's go. Let's see our bedroom."

Huo Qingtong's face flushed red, and she scolded, "Go by yourself."

Despite her words, she followed Chen Jialuo into the bedroom. After closing the door, Chen Jialuo embraced Huo Qingtong and kissed her passionately. The two slowly fell onto the bed. Chen Jialuo propped himself up halfway, looking at Huo Qingtong, whose beautiful eyes were already misty with desire, her pretty face flushed, her cherry lips slightly parted, and her full breasts rising and falling with her breath.

Chen Jialuo undressed her, leaving her only in a pair of underpants. Looking at Huo Qingtong's still-snow-white skin, her high breasts, and the deep cleavage between them, Chen Jialuo couldn't help but sigh, "Heaven has truly been kind to me!"

Huo Qingtong closed her beautiful eyes, letting Chen Jialuo admire her body. After admiring her, Chen Jialuo's hands touched her breasts, his four fingers grasping the nipples, his thumbs gently squeezing and releasing the bright red nipples, feeling the elasticity and softness of Huo Qingtong's breasts. Gradually, Chen Jialuo increased the pressure, his hands no longer limited to grasping and releasing, but also using kneading, squeezing, pressing, and rubbing techniques. Huo Qingtong's moans and panting grew louder, and her two jade-like legs rubbed together from time to time. She clearly felt a constant flow of fluid gushing from between her legs. Chen Jialuo's hands finally left Huo Qingtong's breasts, replaced by his lips. He sucked hard on Huo Qingtong's breasts, gently nibbling at her nipples, while his hands drew circles on Huo Qingtong's flat, smooth abdomen. Then he moved to her genitals, massaging them through the fabric, occasionally probing her vagina with his fingertips. Huo Qingtong writhed like a snake, yearning for Chen Jialuo's intense love!

But Chen Jialuo left her. She opened her eyes in surprise. Chen Jialuo said, "Tongmei, take off your pants yourself. I'll love you properly then."

Huo Qingtong looked down and saw that her underpants were already wet with the fluid from her vagina, clinging tightly to her genitals, revealing a glimpse of her dark forest. She let out a shy moan and closed her beautiful eyes again. Chen Jialuo, taking off his own clothes, said, "Hurry up and take them off, I'm almost done."

Huo Qingtong still didn't want to take them off. After Chen Jialuo finished taking them off, he grinned mischievously and said, "One last question for you... " " Take it off or not?"

Huo Qingtong's beautiful eyes were tightly closed, and she shook her head. Chen Jialuo grabbed her foot and started tickling the sole of her foot. Huo Qingtong couldn't take it and begged for mercy. Chen Jialuo asked again, "Take it off or not?"

Huo Qingtong said, "I'll agree to your request."

Chen Jialuo let go, and Huo Qingtong cried out, "You're really wicked. You insist on making me do these shameful things."

Chen Jialuo didn't answer. Huo Qingtong sat up halfway, grabbed the edge of her pants with both hands, and pulled them down, revealing the alluring scenery between her legs.

Chen Jialuo opened her legs, parted the dense pubic hair to find the stream, and used his left thumb and forefinger to spread

them open, revealing the alluring scenery inside. His right middle finger gently probed the soft flesh inside. Huo Qingtong cried out, "Ah! Brother Chen...it's so itchy!" Chen Jialuo inserted his middle finger into her vagina, sucking on it, and occasionally licking her already erect clitoris with his tongue. Huo Qingtong squeezed her legs together, blocking his tongue and keeping his middle finger inside. Chen Jialuo asked: “Tongmei, since you’ve had enough, come and give me a blowjob.”

With that, he withdrew his fingers, squatted down on Huo Qingtong’s face, and said, “Tongmei, open your eyes.”

Huo Qingtong opened her eyes and was shocked to see a huge penis swaying above her face. Embarrassed, she quickly closed her eyes. Chen Jialuo laughed, holding the penis to Huo Qingtong’s lips, and said, “Tongmei, hurry!”

Huo Qingtong slowly opened her mouth, letting Chen Jialuo’s penis thrust in and out. She would occasionally suck on it forcefully, licking it with her tongue.

Chen Jialuo felt the time had come, so he spread Huo Qingtong’s thighs, aimed his penis at her vagina, and slowly inserted it. He felt his penis being tightly enveloped by a wet, tender flesh, which felt incredibly good. He held Huo Qingtong’s slender waist with both hands and began thrusting. Huo Qingtong excitedly twisted her waist and swayed her hips to meet Chen Jialuo’s thrusts. She kept moaning, "Ah...so good...Brother Chen...you're so amazing!"

Chen Jialuo thrust hard, the room filled with the sounds of his penis slamming against hers and the squeaking as it was withdrawn, mingled with Huo Qingtong's moans and groans, creating a captivating symphony.

After inserting his penis again, Chen Jialuo picked Huo Qingtong up and turned her over, placing her on top. Huo Qingtong supported herself on Chen Jialuo's lower abdomen with her hands, her body rising and falling, swallowing his penis. Chen Jialuo's hands would sometimes caress her heaving breasts, sometimes knead her clitoris, occasionally instructing Huo Qingtong, "Don't just go up and down. Change it up more."

Huo Qingtong gasped, "I don't know how!"

Chen Jialuo had no choice but to say, "After you sit down, don't rush to get up. Turn left and right or back and forth."

"Yes, that's it."

After a frenzy, Huo Qingtong finally declared that she was exhausted: "I'm out of strength. It's your turn."

Chen Jialuo positioned Huo Qingtong in a doggy-style position. Huo Qingtong pressed her upper body hard onto the bed, making her buttocks stick out even more. Chen Jialuo looked at Huo Qingtong's beautiful anus from behind, and the still-open vagina, from which he had just penetrated, was still flowing with thick, white fluid. Chen Jialuo massaged around Huo Qingtong's anus with his left hand and rubbed her vagina with his right. Huo Qingtong cried out, "Brother Chen... stop playing around... hurry up and put it in... I'm so itchy!"

Chen Jialuo entered Huo Qingtong from behind. Inside Tong's body, his hands forcefully kneaded Huo Qingtong's firm, round, and plump buttocks. After hundreds of thrusts, Huo Qingtong's body trembled, and waves of fluid gushed out. Chen Jialuo picked her up and held her in his arms, asking, "Was that good?"

Huo Qingtong let out a long breath and said weakly, "Mmm. You're much better than before."

Chen Jialuo laughed, "If I wasn't good, how could I dare to get involved with so many women?"

Huo Qingtong said, "Just be smug. There will be a day when you're completely drained."

Chen Jialuo laughed, "Then I'll wait. But what do we do now? It hasn't cooled down yet."

Huo Qingtong said, "I'm too tired, I can't take it anymore."

"Then use your hands!"

Chen Jialuo said.

So Huo Qingtong used her strength and mouth to make Chen Jialuo ejaculate, and then the two of them fell asleep.

The Book and the Sword (Continued) Chapter Thirteen: Hearing the Tragic News, Where Can the Couple Find Solace?

When the two returned to the Wang family home that afternoon, they saw Xu Tianhong and Zhou Qi sitting in the courtyard. Xu Tianhong was holding a child in his arms, making his son laugh while talking to Zhou Qi. Zhou Qi, however, seemed absent-minded in her responses. Then, when she saw Chen Jialuo and Huo Qingtong, a hint of jealousy and excitement appeared on her face. As if afraid they wouldn't see him, he raised his hand and called out, "Chief, Sister Qing Tong!"

Chen Jialuo and Huo Qing Tong walked over, and Huo Qing Tong asked with a smile, "Seventh Master, it's rare to have so much free time to chat with your wife and son today. I rarely see you sitting like this."

Xu Tianhong laughed, "Even if I don't have time, I have to keep them company, otherwise, my son won't even recognize me. Look, he's about to hit me."

Chen Jialuo asked, "Is there any progress on Master Zhou's matter?"

Xu Tianhong said, "I inquired, and he's been imprisoned in the Imperial Prison. This is difficult to handle. The jailer said that unless they have an imperial edict, no one is allowed to visit him."

Chen Jialuo said, "Old Master Zhou has always been law-abiding and dedicated to public service..." "He's an upright man. This time we've been exhausted, but no matter what, no matter the cost, we must rescue him."

Xu Tianhong said, "Thank you, Chief."

He then handed his son to Zhou Qi, saying

, "You two chat, I have other matters to attend to." Zhou Qi took her son, glanced at Chen Jialuo and Huo Qingtong, and said, "Chief Chen

, you seem to be in high spirits." Chen Jialuo felt uneasy at her unfriendly tone and didn't know how to respond. Huo Qingtong smiled and said, "Sister Qi, there are no outsiders here. Why be so polite? I've let you have Brother Chen for so long; it's not unfair of him to keep me company now, is it?"

Zhou Qi blushed and remained silent. Huo Qingtong affectionately took Zhou Qi's hand and said, "Come, let's talk over there, sisters."

Chen Jialuo helplessly watched the two women leave and turned to find Wen Tai.

Upon entering his room, Luo Bing opened the door. Chen Jialuo asked, "Is Fourth Brother in?"

Luo Bing smiled and said, "He said he was going out for drinks this morning. He hasn't come back yet."

Chen Jialuo said "Oh" and subconsciously looked at Luo Bing. He saw that Luo Bing, whom he hadn't seen for many days, was wearing a red outfit that perfectly outlined her mature curves: a voluptuous and alluring figure, her full breasts pressed tightly against her clothes, and if you looked closely, you could see two nipples. Below her slender waist was a large bottom, and the outline of her triangle area could be seen in the front. Coupled with her stunningly beautiful face and the ever-present smile, it created a captivating scene.

Luo Bing exuded the charm of a mature woman, which was very different from Huo Qingtong's youthful appearance. Even compared with Zhang Juanjuan, who was also a mature woman, Chen Jialuo had to admit that this Fourth Sister-in-law's beauty and charm were superior. Suddenly, images of Luo Bing's snow-white, full breasts, glossy black pubic hair, plump, red vulva, round, large buttocks, and her fair, snow-white skin that seemed to exude moisture, along with her alluring moans and groans as Wen Tailai thrust into her, flashed through Chen Jialuo's mind. A surge of lust rose within him, and his "little brother" stirred.

Seeing Chen Jialuo staring blankly at her, his eyes vacant and lifeless, and wondering what he was thinking, Luo Bing felt a touch of shyness and confusion. But being a cheerful and generous person, she smiled and said, "Chief!"

Chen Jialuo snapped out of his reverie, feeling embarrassed, and laughed, "I'm sorry, I was rude."

Luo Bing asked, "Thinking about that girl?"

Chen Jialuo replied, "Fourth Sister-in-law is joking. In front of Fourth Sister-in-law, all other women in the world pale in comparison. Who else is there to think about!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Bing's cherry lips emitted a melodious laugh, and her body swayed, her breasts bobbing incessantly, drawing Chen Jialuo's heart. Having finally stopped laughing, Luo Bing said, "If Qing Tong heard you say that, she'd be heartbroken."

Chen Jialuo said, "Qing Tong has told me in private that she wonders why Fourth Sister-in-law has maintained such a good figure and appearance after so many years of marriage with Fourth Brother. Not only has she not lost her youthful advantages, but she has also gained a mature charm. She's truly the envy of women everywhere!" Luo

Bing covered her mouth with her jade hand and laughed, "You've prepared so many sweet words to coax me today, is there something you need me to ask?"

Chen Jialuo said, "No need to prepare, I just get inspired as soon as I see Fourth Sister-in-law!"

Luo Bing said, "That's not right. You used to run away whenever you saw me. You came all this way today, could it be that you had a fight with Qing Tong and need me to mediate? That's easy enough."

Chen Jialuo "Is that so?" Chen Jialuo asked

. Luo Bing replied, "If you two hadn't quarreled, you should have been inseparable after such a long separation. Why did you come here?"

Chen Jialuo laughed, "We were together just now, but Seventh Sister-in-law took her away."

Luo Bing said, "I suppose her father was arrested, and she wanted someone to chat with to relieve her boredom. Chief, I'm free anyway, why don't you come in and chat with me? I find you quite pleasing to the eye today."

Chen Jialuo knew that Luo Bing always liked to joke, so he didn't take offense and followed Luo Bing into the inner room. Luo Bing said, "Please sit wherever you like."

After Chen Jialuo sat down, he said, "Fourth Sister-in-law, it's not easy to come to Beijing. Why don't you go out and have some fun?"

Luo Bing said, "What's fun about being alone?"

"Isn't Fourth Brother with you?"

Chen Jialuo said. Luo Bing said, "He now thinks I'm old and faded, and he rarely takes me with him anymore."

Chen Jialuo, upon hearing this, said seriously, "If that's true, I'll talk to Gui Fengchou about it later and punish him. How can he leave his wife behind to play outside alone?"

Luo Bing was taken aback, but then realized that Chen Jialuo was actually joking, and said, "Exactly. Our Red Flower Society should also establish this rule. Otherwise, if everyone follows his example, what girl would dare to marry a hero of the Red Flower Society?"

Chen Jialuo said, "If Fourth Sister-in-law is interested, I can accompany her."

Luo Bing said, "It's still..." "The Grand Master is very understanding, but if Qing Tong finds out, I'm afraid I'll be in big trouble."

Chen Jialuo said, "That's simple. If she's unhappy, just have her come along."

Luo Bing laughed, "If she comes, your plan will fall through, won't it?"

Chen Jialuo's heart skipped a beat, but seeing Luo Bing's normal expression, he thought, "Fourth Sister-in-law's joke has really gone too far."

But he said aloud, "Fourth Sister-in-law is right. It's indeed inconvenient for us to have someone with us while we're having our romantic time. Let's discuss how to make it seamless, preferably with..." "Keeping the child a secret is truly brilliant."

Luo Bing blushed, a rare sight, and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Chen Jialuo laughed and said, "By the way, Fourth Sister-in-law, you and Fourth Brother have been married for so long, you're not young anymore, why don't you have a child?"

Luo Bing's expression darkened as she said, "It's not that we don't want one. It's just that we don't have one. Sometimes I wonder, is it because we've stained our lives with too much blood, and Heaven is punishing us by cutting off our lineage?"

Chen Jialuo said, "Nonsense! You and Fourth Brother have both done chivalrous deeds, you should be blessed with many children, how can you talk about punishment?" "But that's the reality, "

Luo Bing said. "To be honest, Fourth Brother's attitude towards me has been worse day by day, and that's because of this."

Chen Jialuo said, "This matter is really strange. How about this? I know a famous doctor in the capital who is quite knowledgeable in this area. When you have time, you and Fourth Brother can go and have him taken a look. I'll give you the address."

Luo Bing said excitedly, "That would be perfect. I'll go with him when Fourth Brother returns."

Back to Chen Jialuo and Huo Qingtong walking in the courtyard, Chen Jialuo said, "This matter is truly troublesome!"

Huo Qingtong said, "The one opposing you is the Emperor, so naturally you're not having an easy time. He was far too careless with you before; otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy for you to develop to your current state."

Chen Jialuo said, "Since the last battle, my forces have been severely weakened, and the influence I had in Hangzhou has been completely wiped out. Fortunately, the forces I used in Beijing were limited at the time, which is why I was able to preserve them. Now, I have no choice but to gamble with this."

Huo Qingtong said, "I've traveled to many places these past few days. If I thought there was little hope before, now I believe you have no chance. Qianlong is truly an incompetent..." "Emperors like him are rare indeed, and when compared to other emperors in history, they all seem to be in the same boat. Right now, the empire is well-governed, and the people are content with their lot, no longer yearning for the previous dynasty. For you to think you can succeed is nothing but a pipe dream."

Chen Jialuo said, "Yes, Seventh Brother is right. Right now, our only option is to risk everything and fight Qianlong. If he dies, the empire might descend into chaos, and we'll still have a chance."

Huo Qingtong said, "You had plenty of opportunities before but didn't take advantage of them; now it's going to be difficult."

Chen Jialuo said, "We were always wrong before. We always thought we could persuade him to come and work for us, but now we realize..." "It's incredibly naive and foolish. Imagine, he's already the Emperor; it's impossible for us to tempt him with the title of Emperor!"

Huo Qingtong said, "It's already quite good that you've come to this understanding. So, do you have a plan to assassinate him now?"

Chen Jialuo said, "If we assassinate him now, the timing is best because he's lowered his guard against us. However, doing so would cost Old Master Zhou his life. But if we save Old Master Zhou first, we'll inevitably expose our identities, and then it will be much more difficult to assassinate him."

Huo Qingtong said, "You can't have your cake and eat it too. This is indeed a delicate matter." "You've all got it. In my opinion, you're still more inclined to rescue Old Master Zhou first, aren't you?"

Chen Jialuo said, "Yes."

Huo Qingtong said, "You've changed quite a bit. But Qi-mei will be grateful for your kindness towards her."

Chen Jialuo said, "I feel that I'm too sentimental and no longer suitable to sit in this position. I've thought it over. After rescuing Old Master Zhou, I'll hand over the position to Seventh Brother."

Huo Qingtong said, "You take his wife and then give him the leadership of the Red Flower Society. So, are you losing out or gaining?"

Chen Jialuo smiled but didn't answer.

Huo Qingtong laughed, "Sister Qi didn't go to keep her husband company last night, but she and Sister Hongye served you. Tsk tsk, your charm is truly extraordinary."

Chen Jialuo blushed and said, "Who told you to say you were tired and didn't want to keep me company? Are you jealous now?"

Huo Qingtong said, "You're mistaken. I admire you. To be honest, I usually see Sister Zhou Qi as delicate and Sister Hongye as petite and cute, but I never imagined they would be so vigorous and uninhibited in bed. Watching them ride and sway on you, I was afraid your little brother would break."

Chen Jialuo laughed, "I knew you would peek. How was it? Did you taste anything?"

Huo Qingtong blushed and said, "You're really wicked. No wonder you taught Sister Qi to be like this, and Sister Hongye, what tricks did you use to make her give you her back too?"

Chen Jialuo said, "She offered herself willingly. Don't think of me as so bad."

Huo Qingtong's pretty face flushed red and said, "Still pretending, she's so... " How could Xiao Xiao know that...that backside...that backside could also be...you must have gotten it by coaxing and tempting you in every possible way. "

Chen Jialuo saw that the more she talked, the redder her face became. He felt moved in his heart. He hugged her into his arms and said, "Okay, I admit it. What about you, when will you give me your back too? "

Huo Qingtong hid in Chen Jialuo's arms and said coquettishly: "

Don't even think about it in this life! "Chen Jialuo said: "Actually, it's the first time the back is forward, but it's quite comfortable from the back. If you don't believe me, you can ask Sister Hongye!

Huo Qingtong said: "I'm not asking. Do you think I'm easy to deceive?"

Chen Jialuo said: "You are the smartest lady in the world, how dare I lie to you." Huo

Qingtong said with a smile: "No matter how loudly you flatter me, it's useless!"

Chen Jialuo laughed and said, "Then I have no choice but to bow."

After saying that, his hands came to her firm buttocks and grabbed them hard. Huo Qingtong stretched out his hands to block her and said, "Are you crazy?" People come and go here.

Chen Jialuo said: "Open your eyes and look around. Is there anyone there?" "

“You’re not allowed to touch me!” Huo Qingtong said coquettishly.

Chen Jialuo said, “You can’t have your way with that. It’s your fault for not giving me anything last night.”

After saying that, he started touching her again. Huo Qingtong squirmed in Chen Jialuo’s arms, panting, and said, “Good brother, I’m scared of you. Let’s go back to the room, okay? If you want to touch me, I’ll let you touch me as much as you want!”

Chen Jialuo said, “You said it yourself, no cheating.”

Huo Qingtong hummed in agreement. The two of them hugged each other and took a few steps forward when they heard someone call out from behind, “Chief!”

Chen Jialuo and Huo Qingtong turned around and saw a person who was as beautiful as a fairy, more beautiful than a flower, and exuded an alluring mature woman’s charm. Chen Jialuo quickly let go of Huo Qingtong and said, “Fourth sister-in-law, what wind blew you here?”

Luo Bing still had a smile on her face and said, “I walked here myself.”

Huo Qingtong said, “You two chat first, I’ll go back to the room first.” "

Watching Huo Qingtong's departing figure, Luo Bing said, "Chief, you really know how to enjoy life. Holding such a beautiful woman and sitting in such a magnificent mansion, what more could a man ask for?"

Chen Jialuo laughed, "Fourth Sister-in-law, you flatter me. You didn't come here to enjoy yourself, did you?"

Luo Bing's tone turned serious, "I don't have such good fortune. I wanted you to accompany me to see that miracle doctor."

Chen Jialuo asked, "Fourth Brother, isn't he going?"

Luo Bing said, "He said he's not sick. He doesn't need to see any doctor. What, you don't want to come with me?"

Chen Jialuo said, "I appreciate your kind words. How could I not want to? Wait a moment, I'll go talk to Qingtong and come right away."

Chen Jialuo went into the house and saw Huo Qingtong lying on the bed, her high breasts rising and falling with her breath, looking extremely alluring. When she saw Chen Jialuo come in, her face turned red. Chen Jialuo sat down on the edge of the bed and said, "I'll go out with Fourth Sister-in-law for a bit."

A hint of disappointment flashed

across Huo Qingtong's face, but she still said, "Okay." Chen Jialuo reached out and stroked her breasts, saying, "Sigh, I really can't bear to part with her."

Huo Qingtong laughed, "If you can't bear to part with her, then go and refuse her. Do whatever you want with her!"

Chen Jialuo said, "I promised her. No going back on my word. Such beauty can only be enjoyed tonight. I'm afraid you can't wait, can you?"

Huo Qingtong's face hardened, and she pushed away Chen Jialuo's hand from her breasts, saying, "Hurry up and go. Don't nag me. Do I care about you?

" Luo laughed and walked out of the room to Luo Bing, saying, "Let's go!" Chen Jialuo and Luo Bing walked out of the inn. Luo Bing asked, "If we walk like this openly, don't you think we'll be recognized?"

Chen Jialuo said, "Actually, not many people in the court have seen us, and they've all been inside the palace. As for the previous notices and portraits, I'm afraid no one will recognize us. After all, three or four months have passed."

Luo Bing said, "Today I feel like there are a few more eyes watching outside the Wang family's place; it makes me a little uneasy."

Chen Jialuo said, "Didn't I tell you to stay outside and meet up if anything comes up?"

Luo Bing said, "They felt this was a bit too much trouble. It's also inconvenient to notify everyone individually, so only Brother Zhao moved out."

Chen Jialuo said, "Oh, in that case, just be careful."

Luo Bing said, "I know. By the way, Chief, do you really say there are women in the world who can't have children?"

Chen Jialuo said, "According to the books, there are no inherently infertile people, but the problem lies in some unhealthy lifestyle habits and accidents, which can lead to infertility."

Luo Bing said, "Now that you mention it, I'm a little nervous."

Chen Jialuo said, "Don't worry, actually I don't know either. Let the doctor tell you."

Chen Jialuo and Luo Bing quickly arrived at the doctor's place. Luo Bing heard Chen Jialuo say that the doctor was about sixty years old, but when she saw the doctor sitting in front of her with black hair, a ruddy complexion, a loud voice, and movements as nimble as a young man, she knew that this doctor must be proficient in healing arts, so she had even more confidence in him. Chen Jialuo smiled and said, "Old Mr. Zhang, do you remember me?"

The doctor's surname was indeed Zhang. Upon hearing this, he looked up for a moment and said, "Oh, it's Chief Chen! Please, have a seat. It's been quite a while since you've visited me. What brings you here today?"

Chen Jialuo replied, "My friend has been married for several years but hasn't had a son. I brought her here to have you take a look, sir."

Zhang Langzhong glanced at Luo Bing and smiled, "I observe that this lady's face is full and rosy, with a serene and austere appearance; she doesn't seem to suffer from infertility!" Chen Jialuo said, "Mr. Zhang

, you jest. Would we dare joke about such a matter?"

Zhang, stroking his beard, smiled and said, "Of course not. Come, extend your hand, let me take your pulse."

Zhang took the pulse, examined the eyes, pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Strange! This young lady, in every way, has the appearance of someone who will bear children. You've deceived me, you've fooled this old man with your pulse diagnosis!"

Luo Bing said, both happy and disappointed, "Old Master Zhang, is there really no way to solve this?"

Zhang said, "This matter is most likely due to your husband. Bring him to me another day, let me take a look."

Chen Jialuo said... "Don't you have any medicine for us to take back?"

Doctor Zhang said, "That won't do. This illness is different from a cold. There are many causes, some are due to insufficient qi and blood, insufficient yang qi, and some are due to damage to the meridians. If we don't diagnose the cause and rashly prescribe medicine, it might backfire."

Luo Bing said, "Then I'll take him another day."

Doctor Zhang asked, "Haven't you asked for your name yet, Madam?"

Luo Bing said, "Luo Bing."

Doctor Zhang laughed, "Look at my brain! The one brought by Chief Chen must be a member of the Red Flower Society, I..." "Who else could it be but Luo Bing, with her unparalleled beauty and charm, who else could she be? So, your husband must be Wen Tai, the Thunder Hand?"

Luo Bing nodded and asked, "Doctor Zhang, you've also heard of him?"

Doctor Zhang replied, "Not only have I heard of him, but I've also seen him. He came to my place a few years ago with Chief Yu. If it's him, I know a little about the cause of this illness."

Chen Jialuo and Luo Bing exchanged glances. Luo Bing excitedly said, "That would be the best."

Doctor Zhang shook his head and said, "If it really is him, then it would be the worst possible outcome."

"What do you mean?"

Luo Bing was taken aback.

Zhang Langzhong said, "Master Wen's internal energy cultivation is an extremely domineering martial art. This martial art injures the user before injuring the opponent! It essentially forces open one's meridians to accelerate the circulation of internal energy. While this certainly leads to advancements in martial arts, it also disrupts the yin-yang balance within the body. The yang energy overwhelms the yin energy, resulting in sperm inactivation. Heh heh, Master Wen probably didn't take my words to heart a few years ago." Luo Bing's face turned ashen, and she asked, "Master Zhang

, is there any cure for his illness?"

Zhang Langzhong said, "If that's the case, then I'm afraid I can't help you. To regenerate your meridians, I'm afraid only Bian Que reborn might have a chance."

Luo Bing muttered dejectedly, "How could this be?"

Zhang Langzhong turned to Chen Jialuo and said, "Nothing in this world has a cause and effect. What we can't see doesn't mean it doesn't exist, and what we see isn't necessarily true. What does Chief Chen think?"

Chen Jialuo said, "Good causes lead to good results. If one acts for the public good, then one's actions will be without shame before Heaven and without regret before Earth."

Zhang Langzhong asked, "What does 'public good' mean?"

Chen Jialuo said, "The people of the world." Zhang

Langzhong asked, "When you walk on the shore, you feel the scenery is infinitely beautiful; but you think the fish are lonely and bored, so you weave a net to catch them. Is that good or evil?"

Chen Jialuo said, "A small pond, though beautiful, is only a small area. To catch them and release them back into the sea,

wouldn't that be wonderful?" Zhang Langzhong said, "You use your own selfish desires to take away what is beautiful from them; I'm afraid that's not good."

Chen Jialuo said, "You are not a fish; how do you know they don't miss the sea? But alas, I lack the strength and dare not do it!"

Zhang Langzhong sighed deeply and said, "It was the same ten years ago, and it will be the same ten years later."

Chen Jialuo ... Luo stood up and said, "We've troubled you for so long, sir. We'll take our leave now."

Zhang Langzhong saw them to the door and said to Chen Jialuo, "Remember to come visit this old man when you have some free time!"

Luo Bing and Chen Jialuo walked out, and Luo Bing asked, "What kind of riddles were you two playing just now?"

Chen Jialuo smiled and said, "Old Master Zhang was trying to persuade me to give up the anti-Qing cause, but he couldn't say it directly, so he used these words to hint at it." Luo Bing

said, "That old man is so annoying, no wonder my brother wouldn't listen to him." She even smiled as she finished speaking

. Chen Jialuo said, "Actually, what he said isn't entirely without merit."

Luo Bing said, "I didn't understand a word you said. Tell me what he actually said?"

"His first question was whether we were doing this for our own desires or truly for the sake of the people. His second was a sarcastic remark that we didn't understand the beauty of the people's lives and insisted on disrupting their peaceful and beautiful existence. I said that Han people should live in their own world. He then said that this was purely wishful thinking on our part, that we didn't understand the people's inner thoughts. I then asked him, since he wasn't one of the people, how did he know it was just wishful thinking on our part? Perhaps the people also wanted to return to the past, but they just didn't have the means. His final lament was that he couldn't convince my adoptive father ten years ago, and he still couldn't convince me ten years later."

Luo Bing shook her head and sighed, "You scholars put so much thought into your words. If it were my fourth brother, he would have slammed his fist on the table and said, 'You old fool, if you keep spouting nonsense, don't blame my Thunderclap Hand for not recognizing you! Haha!'" Chen Jialuo laughed, "Yes, this is a classic case of a scholar encountering a soldier—you can't reason with him."

Luo Bing giggled, her beautiful eyes sparkling and radiant, as if all her previous troubles had vanished.

Chen Jialuo couldn't help but admire her optimism and open-mindedness. A thought struck him, and he said, "Fourth Sister-in-law, you're so carefree about everything; no wonder you're still so young and beautiful."

Luo Bing said, "Are you implying I'm old?"

Chen Jialuo smiled and said, "Age is a real thing; it's not something I can simply decide to change. I've seen many women your age who look like old women."

Luo Bing chuckled and said, "So you're indirectly insulting me?"

Chen Jialuo said, "Forgive me, forgive me. I wouldn't have meant that. I'm just a mortal; how could I possibly disrespect a celestial being?"

Luo Bing laughed, "With your sweet talk, no wonder Qing Tong is completely under your thumb."

"Is that so?"

"Chen Jialuo said.

Luo Bing said, "Of course not! Do you think I'm blind? What were you two doing hugging each other this morning?"

Chen Jialuo, realizing she had seen him and Huo Qingtong playfully hugging, and seeing that she seemed oblivious to Zhou Qi's earlier incident, felt relieved and said, "Fourth Sister-in-law arrived early, but she was just watching the fun from the sidelines."

Luo Bing blushed and didn't reply, her eyes fixed on something ahead. Chen Jialuo followed her gaze and saw Wen Tailai holding a little boy of about four years old, playing with him. Chen Jialuo smiled and said, "Fourth Brother, you have quite the refined taste. Playing with the child here."

He then glanced back at Luo Bing, seeing her standing there blankly, seemingly lost in thought. It was rare for her to be so quiet; she seemed like a completely different person: "Quiet and dignified, bright and elegant, the breeze ruffling her long hair and sash, she was like a fairy fallen to earth, making one reluctant to disturb her." (10-23
The Book and the Sword (Continued)) In Chapter Fourteen, amidst the height of passion, the emerald-feathered, yellow-clad woman offered her services through the back door

. After a while, Luo Bing said, "Chief, let's go take a look."

So the two quickly walked over. Chen Jialuo called out, "Fourth Brother!"

Wen Tailai nodded upon seeing Chen Jialuo; Luo Bing also called

out, "Eldest Brother." Wen Tailai didn't respond, and the three were unsure what to say when the little boy in Wen Tailai's arms cried, "Uncle, I want to eat corn."

Wen Tailai smiled broadly and said, "Okay, okay. Let's go buy some."

Without speaking to Chen Jialuo and Luo Bing, he turned and carried the child to a nearby corn stall.

Chen Jialuo and Luo Bing exchanged a glance and could only follow. Chen Jialuo watched Wen Tailai chatting happily with the little boy; there was no trace of the renowned chivalrous figure he was supposed to be. He thought to himself, "Even a hero as extraordinary as Fourth Brother couldn't escape the mundane at a certain age, let alone others. But according to what Doctor Zhang said, he can forget about having another son in this lifetime. What should we do?"

With this thought in mind, he subconsciously turned his gaze to Luo Bing. Coincidentally, Luo Bing also turned around, seemingly thinking of something. Their eyes met, and without a word, they understood the meaning expressed in each other's eyes: "Life is unpredictable!"

A moment later, a young couple walked up to Wen Tailai's side. "Uncle, thank you for looking after our child. We're going back now."

Wen Tailai seemed somewhat reluctant as he handed the child over to the couple. Turning back, he said with a hint of melancholy, "I never thought I'd become someone else's childcare worker. Heh heh!"

Luo Bing shuddered, hooking her wrist around Wen Tailai's arm, and whispered, "Brother, we'll have our own children eventually."

A strange expression flashed across Wen Tailai's face upon hearing this. He gently pulled his hand away from Luo Bing's and said, "Let's go eat."

The three of them went into the inn, ordered food, and chatted as they ate. Wen Tailai saw two people walk in. The man was handsome and dashing, dressed in fine clothes, exuding an air of nobility. The woman was exceptionally beautiful, though her large, dark eyes seemed a little lifeless, and her beautiful face carried a hint of melancholy. It was Fukang'an and Li Yuanzhi. Seeing them sit down at a table in the distance, Wen Tailai was overjoyed, thinking to himself, "I've searched high and low, and now this has come to me without any effort."

As soon as he put down his wine glass, he was about to get up and make his move when Chen Jialuo whispered, "Fourth Brother, wait."

Wen Tailai's blood boiled, and he was about to ignore him when he suddenly felt a smooth, delicate hand grasp his palm. Knowing it was Luo Bing, he instinctively looked up and saw her expectant face. Finally, unable to disobey her, he angrily sat down, saying resentfully, "Now is a perfect opportunity."

Chen Jialuo said, "Fourth Brother, look around again."

Wen Tailai focused his gaze and saw that after Fukang'an sat down, more than a dozen strong men entered from outside. Each of them moved with agility, clearly top-notch fighters. They seemed to intentionally or unintentionally sit around Fukang'an, protecting him and Li Yuanzhi in the middle.

Wen Tailai figured he could handle three men, but four was out of the question, so he had no choice but to give up. He drank alone in silence.

Fukang'an's attention was entirely focused on Li Yuanzhi, so he couldn't see Chen Jialuo and the others. However, his fawning expression and obsequious manner towards Li Yuanzhi were evident. Because of the distance and the large number of people eating, Chen Jialuo and Wen Tailai could only vaguely hear that Fukang'an seemed to have done something wrong and was apologizing to Li Yuanzhi. During his apology, he kept uttering words that made their hearts flutter. After listening for a while, Chen Jialuo and Wen Tailai were somewhat surprised: "Judging from this young man's tone, it seems he's deeply in love with Li Yuanzhi. And judging from Li Yuanzhi's words, although she doesn't seem to care about what Fukang'an has done..." "I can let it go, but it's not necessarily unforgivable. In short, the two of them are more like a quarreling couple!"

Hearing Fukang'an's increasingly intimate words, Chen Jialuo and Wen Tailai, realizing their conversation was irrelevant to them, felt it was somewhat shameless to eavesdrop on others' affections and stopped listening intently. However, Chen Jialuo noticed Li Yuanzhi's increasingly cheerful expression, chatting and laughing with Fukang'an. Occasionally, when she was happy, her delicate hand would playfully slap Fukang'an. Having spent time among women recently, Chen Jialuo knew that Li Yuanzhi was deeply in love and unable to extricate herself. Thinking of Yu Yutong, he felt a pang of sadness.

After the three finished eating, they paid the bill and left the restaurant. Wen Tailai couldn't help but curse, "Damn it, I told you these rich heiresses are unreliable, and it's proven true. We must tell Fourteenth Brother about this, so he can give up on this woman."

Chen Jialuo said, "Fourth Brother, we'll settle this matter in our hearts. We mustn't tell anyone else."

Wen Tailai asked, "What are you saying? Do you want Fourteenth Brother to continue being deceived by this woman?"

Chen Jialuo said, "We've only overheard snippets of their conversation. Whether it's true or not remains to be verified. Maybe Fourteenth Brother's wife is just pretending to help his family."

Luo Bing also chimed in, "The Grand Master is right. I think Yuanzhi chased Fourteenth Brother from Hangzhou to Beijing, and then from Beijing to Xinjiang. She's truly devoted to him and wouldn't fall in love with someone else so easily."

Wen Tailai said, "Alright. I'll listen to you and keep this to myself for now."

Fukang'an was overjoyed to see Li Yuanzhi finally smiling after being coaxed into doing so.

Just then, someone entered. Fukang'an, seeing that the person was sent to spy on the Wang family, said to Li Yuanzhi, "Sister Yuanzhi, please sit down. I have to leave for a moment."

He then went into the private room with the man and asked, "Have you figured it out?"

The man replied, "Reporting to Master, according to the brothers who fought with the Red Flower Society that day, it has been confirmed that the group of people of unknown origin currently staying at the Wang family's residence are indeed the leaders of the Red Flower Society."

Upon hearing this, Fukang'an was overjoyed. He slammed his hand on the table and stood up, saying, "Good, well done. Wenzhen, I was right about you." Wenzhen

said, "Thank you for your praise, Master." Fukang'an said, "The next step should be to send troops to surround them and annihilate them in one fell swoop. However, Wen..." "Zhen, are you sure they usually live at the Wang family's?"

Wen Zhen replied, "I haven't noticed."

Fukang'an's smile faded. "Go and find out right now. Send more men to track everyone who goes out, see if they live outside, and keep a close eye on those places too."

Wen Zhen said, "Yes, sir, I'll take care of it right away."

Fukang'an returned to the dining table with a beaming smile. Li Yuanzhi asked, "You look so happy, what good news is it?"

Fukang'an said, "Heh, I'm about to be promoted."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuanzhi said, "In that case, what you said about releasing my parents should also be settled, right? You need to hurry."

Fukang'an was in a good mood and said, "I'll take care of it right now, okay?"

Li Yuanzhi was greatly surprised and asked, "Really? Don't try to fool me."

Fukang'an said, "Whether it's true or not, you'll know when you get there. Go back and wait here. I'll go to the palace to see the Emperor now and get this done."

Li Yuanzhi was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly. Watching Fukang'an's departing figure, after calming down, she suddenly thought of Yu Yutong. Her heart ached. She thought to herself that she was already a wife, yet she had given her body to a man other than her husband. Although it was because she was drunk and confused, the infidelity was still a fact. Would her senior brother forgive her if he found out? Furthermore, how could she get rid of Fukang'an? She clearly felt that although Fukang'an had defiled her virginity, she found it difficult to feel any ill will towards this handsome, charming, and obedient young man who deliberately tried to please her. Instead, she felt a growing dependence, affection, and anticipation...

In the afternoon, Li Yuanzhi sat bored in her room when she heard a knock at the door. Opening it, she was both surprised and delighted to see her parents, whom she had been longing for day and night. She hugged her mother tightly, shouting and yelling, before calming down after a while. Only then did she see Fukang'an behind her. She quickly invited the three of them into the house. Fukang'an, being quite tactful, took his leave after sitting for a short while. Li Yuanzhi carefully observed Li Kexiu and Cui Ying, noticing that although they looked slightly tired... However, she was still healthy and seemed to have suffered little in prison, which put their minds at ease. They said, "Your daughter is unfilial for not being able to rescue you two sooner, causing you to suffer."

Li Kexiu and Cui Ying saw that after more than a year of trials outside, Li Yuanzhi's brows were no longer as naive as before, and her demeanor and speech were much more mature and steady. They were very comforted and said, "We're doing well. What suffering have we endured? We've been eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating, carefree and forgetting all our worries."

Li Yuanzhi smiled through her tears, and the three of them chatted together until it was time for dinner. Fukang'an also came to eat with them. Li Kexiu and Cui Ying, being experienced women, could easily see that Fukang'an had feelings for Li Yuanzhi. This made them even happier, thinking to themselves, "With such a son-in-law, what more could I ask for?" So after dinner, the two old people went back to their rooms to rest. Fukang'an said, "I plan to petition the Emperor to reinstate your father to his original position. What do you think?"

Li Yuanzhi said, "That would be wonderful. Thank you."

Fukang'an said, "Do we need to be so formal? Come, accompany me for a walk in the courtyard."

Fukang'an and Li Yuanzhi strolled in the courtyard, looking at the starry night sky and smelling the pleasant fragrance. They felt refreshed. Li Yuanzhi's mood improved, and she became more lively in conversation. Fukang'an looked at her every smile and frown, feeling incredibly fond of her. He reached out and put his arm around her slender waist, saying, "Yuanzhi, you are so beautiful."

Li Yuanzhi leaned against his shoulder, feeling his warm breath, her heart fluttering. She remained silent. Fukang'an whispered in her ear, "Shall we go back to our room?" Li

Yuanzhi gently pulled away from his embrace, saying, "Brother Fu, please give me a little more time, okay?"

Fukang'an looked at Li Yuanzhi's bright and refined face, her exquisite figure so close yet so far. But his heart was not like most; after his initial disappointment, he smiled and asked, "I said I would wait for you, and I will, even if it's a lifetime."

He kissed Li Yuanzhi's cheek and added, "It's getting late, you should rest early. I have to go back too."

With that, he turned and left. Li Yuanzhi touched the still-warm lip print on her face, suddenly realizing for the first time that this man also held a place in her heart.

That evening, Chen Jialuo's neighbor knocked on Huo Qingtong's door. Huo Qingtong was wearing a loose, cream-colored nightgown, her long, black hair flowing down her back. Chen Jialuo pulled her into his arms, inhaling her fragrance. Huo Qingtong nestled comfortably in his embrace and softly asked, "Big brother, do you really agree to Seventh Brother's plan?"

Chen Jialuo was taken aback and asked, "What? You think the plan won't work?"

Huo Qingtong replied, "No, the plan itself is good. I'm worried about Yuanzhi's reaction. Isn't this a bit unfair to her?"

Chen Jialuo said, "I don't think it's as serious as you think. Besides, Fourteenth Brother has already agreed. What can I say? Can't you come up with a better idea to help your husband?"

Huo Qingtong laughed, "Shameless! When did you become my husband?

" Luo said, "Starting from this moment today."

He then placed his hands on her breasts, feeling their delicate softness. He couldn't help but ask, "Oh, didn't you wear a bellyband?"

Huo Qingtong replied shyly, "I know you're going to be naughty, isn't this just for your convenience?"

Chen Jialuo asked again, "And what about down there? Are you wearing anything?"

Huo Qingtong's almond-shaped eyes sparkled with desire, her cheeks flushed

, and she said, "Can't you see for yourself? Can't you look and touch?" Chen Jialuo unbuttoned her nightgown, revealing that she was naked underneath. He said, "Tongmei, you look incredibly alluring!"

Huo Qingtong said, "As long as you love me and cherish me from now on, I'll cooperate with whatever you want."

Chen Jialuo said, "Tongmei, you're really getting more and more sophisticated. I like it very much. Hearing your words makes me want to love you fiercely."

"Then come on, what are you waiting for? My body is yours, you can do whatever you want with it,"

Huo Qingtong murmured.

Chen Jialuo helped her sit on the edge of the bed, casually removing her nightgown to reveal her snow-white body. He spread her legs, parting her labia with his left hand, gazing at the pink, tender flesh inside, while his right hand caressed her, saying, "Tongmei, you're so beautiful here."

Huo Qingtong looked down at Chen Jialuo's fingers moving in and out of her, her pretty face growing increasingly flushed, and asked, "Is it prettier than Sister Qi's?"

Chen Jialuo had already pinched her clitoris at the top of her labia minora, slowly rubbing it, saying, "Yours is redder and more tender than hers."

Huo Qingtong was now at the peak of desire, her beautiful eyes half-closed, her mouth constantly moaning.

Chen Jialuo played with her for a while, then rolled her over and made her lie face down on the bed. Her round, firm buttocks were raised towards the bed. Chen Jialuo reached in from behind and probed her vagina with his fingers, while his other hand went to her breasts and kneaded them. Then he forcefully spread her buttocks apart, revealing Huo Qingtong's two holes to Chen Jialuo. One was tight and dark red, the other was plump and juicy. Chen Jialuo first licked her vulva with his tongue, then used the tip of his tongue to thrust in and out of her clitoris and vagina. Then he licked along the direction of her anus. Huo Qingtong's buttocks swayed from side to side, as if welcoming or trying to break free from Chen Jialuo's caresses. When Chen Jialuo's tongue touched Huo Qingtong's anus, she finally couldn't help but cry out, "Big brother, I want it, not there, it's dirty."

The more she resisted, the more aroused Chen Jialuo felt, and the less he wanted to let go. In the end, he pressed his entire face against Huo Qingtong's buttocks, biting, licking, and kissing them. Huo Qingtong was speechless. After Chen Jialuo took off his clothes, he squatted behind Huo Qingtong and entered her body. He felt the soft flesh tightly enveloping his penis from all sides. He groaned, pulled out completely, and then thrust it in heavily. This time, he hit her sweet spot. Huo Qingtong cried out, "Big brother, you're so good! You hit my sweet spot right away. Faster... harder... fuck me to death!"

Chen Jialuo's penis moved in and out of Huo Qingtong's body quickly. His hand caressed Huo Qingtong's dark red anus. After another heavy thrust, his middle finger pressed against Huo Qingtong's anus and slowly rotated and pushed in. Huo Qingtong grabbed his hand and turned her head, saying, "Big brother, no."

Chen Jialuo placed his penis inside her, leaned down on her back, and whispered in her ear, "Tongmei, I love you. I want to have all of you. Give it to me, okay?"

Seeing the sincerity on his face, Huo Qingtong's heart softened, and she said, "But... it will hurt a lot there."

Chen Jialuo said, "I'll be very gentle, don't be afraid. It will only hurt for a little while."

Upon hearing this, Huo Qingtong released Chen Jialuo's hand. Chen Jialuo slowly moved his penis, using his fingers to gently push it into her anus. Huo Qingtong felt both shy and expectant, her head bobbing back and forth on the pillow. Chen Jialuo's fingers were finally fully inserted, slowly probing inside. Through the thin vaginal walls, she could feel his penis moving in and out of Huo Qingtong's body. After a while, Chen Jialuo felt it was about time and withdrew his penis from her vagina. The friction against her anus made Huo Qingtong extremely nervous. She covered her anus with both hands, but Chen Jialuo gently pushed her hands away, reassuring her, "Tongmei, don't be afraid. I'll be gentle."

Huo Qingtong let out a soft "woof" and stopped resisting, lying quietly on the bed with her eyes closed. She felt Chen Jialuo forcefully spreading her buttocks apart, which hurt a little because he spread them too wide. Finally, his penis forcefully pushed in, and Huo Qingtong's heart clenched, a mixture of anticipation and fear spreading throughout her body, making her even more excited.

At this moment, she could feel Chen Jialuo's hot penis penetrating deeper, bringing not only the pain of the muscles opening but also a strong sense of pleasure. Chen Jialuo endured the pleasure from the contractions and friction in her anus, firmly inserting his penis all the way into Huo Qingtong's rectum. He then hugged Huo Qingtong and asked, "Tongmei, how is it?"

Huo Qingtong replied, "It hurts. It feels swollen."

"Is it comfortable?"

Chen Jialuo asked.

Huo Qingtong shook her head and said, "I don't know, as long as you like it, that's fine."

Chen Jialuo was deeply moved. He turned her stunningly beautiful face towards him and saw that her face was covered in cold sweat, probably from tension and pain. He felt even more pity for her and kissed her pretty face passionately. After kissing for a while, Huo Qingtong said, "Big brother, try it. I want to see if this tastes really that good. Why does Sister Hongye seem to enjoy it so much?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a voice laughed, "Sister Qingtong, this taste is certainly wonderful. I'm afraid that after you've tasted it, you'll want your big brother to insert it into your anus every day instead of your front." (

The Book and the Sword, Continued) Chapter Fifteen: A Happy Night, Flowers Bloom in Pairs.

Huo Qingtong was taken aback. Seeing Chen Jialuo's ambiguous smile,

she couldn't help but say coquettishly, "Oh! You're all ganging up on me." The one who spoke first was Zhou Qi. She walked to the bedside and laughed, "You came to spy on me last night. Today I'm spying on you. We're even, no one owes anyone anything!"

Huo Qingtong said, "I'm just keeping watch for you. You don't want to be caught red-handed by Seventh Brother, do you?"

Zhou Qi giggled, "Tongmei is so quick-witted. Brother Chen, what are you standing there for? Didn't Tongmei tell you to insert it into her asshole? I want to see if her lower part is as good as her upper part!"

Huo Qingtong laughed and scolded, "Just enjoy it for now. You'll see later."

At this moment, Chen Jialuo was already thrusting into her asshole. A completely different feeling made Huo Qingtong forget about her playful banter with Zhou Qi and start moaning to herself. Zhou Qi reached out and grabbed Huo Qingtong's breasts, digging into her vagina. Huo Qingtong, whose anus was newly opened and whose first time making love with Chen Jialuo in front of a third person, was extremely excited. Soon, her body trembled, and a gush of hot, wet vaginal fluid gushed out. Zhou Qi withdrew her wet fingers and held them out to Chen Jialuo, who opened his mouth and sucked on them. Huo Qingtong, panting, said, "Sister Qi, why aren't you taking off your clothes?"

Zhou Qi laughed, "Ask him if he's still willing."

Chen Jialuo said, "Why not? I just deflowered Qingtong from behind. Shouldn't you keep your promise?"

Zhou Qi said, "I know. If you want it, you can have it!"

It turned out that despite Chen Jialuo and Zhou Qi's many attempts at lovemaking, he still couldn't penetrate her anus. This afternoon, however, he finally... She relented, saying, "Alright. I'll give it to you whenever you open Qing Tong's back door, is that alright?"

Chen Jialuo then began to undress Zhou Qi. Soon, Zhou Qi's slightly plump body was exposed before Chen Jialuo and Huo Qing Tong. Chen Jialuo placed Zhou Qi next to Huo Qing Tong, kneading each of their breasts with both hands, comparing their differences: Zhou Qi's breasts were larger and softer than Huo Qing Tong's due to breastfeeding; Huo Qing Tong's breasts were more shapely and fuller, with two bright red nipples; tracing down their abdomens, both women's skin was as smooth and delicate as silk; reaching their genitals, Zhou Qi's pubic hair was thicker, her labia were thicker, and her vagina was looser due to the child, but the suction was stronger deep inside.

Chen Jialuo's fingers probed between their vaginas, the two uniquely beautiful white bodies changing positions before his eyes, their breasts swaying; Huo Qing Tong had just reached orgasm, so it was alright. Having witnessed the erotic scene earlier, Zhou Qi was already aroused, and now she was even more uncontrollable, crying out, "Big brother... hurry... use your penis to penetrate me... my little hole is so itchy... hurry!"

Chen Jialuo withdrew his fingers from her hole, and his large penis instantly slid in. Zhou Qi raised her chin high and cried out, "Ah... so comfortable... your big penis is all the way in... move faster."

Chen Jialuo grabbed her waist and thrust hard, Zhou Qi's body twisted wildly, her hips thrusting upwards to meet his thrusts, her mouth moaning incessantly, "Oh... you've penetrated my little hole to pieces... Big brother Chen... you're so great... I want to be penetrated by you forever."

Huo Qingtong watched as white semen continuously gushed from the point where the two were joined, and her heart surged with lust. She rolled over and lay on top of Zhou Qi, playing with Zhou Qi's swaying breasts.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Qi let out a muffled groan, reaching her climax. Chen

Jialuo held her for a while, then patted her body and said, "Let's change positions." Zhou Qi turned over, lying face down on the bed, her large buttocks raised high. Chen Jialuo licked and kissed her buttocks for a while, then slowly inserted his fingers into her anus, rotating them. Zhou Qi said, "Mmm...it's so full."

Huo Qingtong was very surprised and asked, "Sister Qi, haven't you opened this place before?"

Zhou Qi said, "No. Today I've troubled you."

"What do you mean?"

Huo Qingtong asked curiously.

Zhou Qi then told her about her agreement with Chen Jialuo. Huo Qingtong smiled and said, "That's too good for him. Sister Qi, didn't Seventh Brother mention going through your back door before?"

Zhou Qi said, "That blockhead, he doesn't understand anything."

"Even if he doesn't understand, he'd still have a baby inside your little hole."

"Let's not talk about the past anymore. Now my body belongs to Big Brother, only he can play with it, can penetrate it... Ouch... Can you be gentle? You're going to burst my little hole!" Zhou Qi cried out.

It turned out that just as Chen Jialuo was thrusting deep into her anus, he heard their lewd words and got excited, using too much force. To ease Zhou Qi's pain, Huo Qingtong reached out and touched her genitals. After Chen Jialuo had inserted his entire penis, he slowly thrust in and out, savoring the pleasure brought by Zhou Qi's virgin anus.

After a brief period of discomfort, Zhou Qi gradually began to experience the pleasure of anal sex. Her body swayed in response to Chen Jialuo's thrusts. After nearly a hundred thrusts, Chen Jialuo picked Zhou Qi up and positioned her on top. He lay on his bottom and let Zhou Qi masturbate herself. Soon after, he pulled Zhou Qi down to lie on her back against his chest and thrust his lower body upwards into her anus. He squeezed her breasts with both hands. Huo Qingtong, not to be outdone, stretched out her jade-like fingers to open Zhou Qi's wet labia and pinched and played with her erect clitoris with her slender little fingers. Her other hand dug and probed inside her vagina. Violated from both ends, Zhou Qi's body swayed even more violently, and she kept shouting and moaning. A moment later, a milky white fluid gushed from her vagina. She said weakly, "Oh, I really can't take it anymore. Tongmei, it's your turn."

With that, she rolled off Chen Jialuo's body, and Huo Qingtong shyly straddled him, parting her labia with her hands, aligning her blood-red opening with his penis, and forcefully sitting down. Then she began to move up and down, left and right, in a rhythmic motion. After a while, both of them finally reached orgasm.

The next day, Chen Jialuo, Huo Qingtong, and Zhou Qi arrived at the Wang family's residence. Huo Qingtong frowned and said, "Brother, there have been noticeably more strangers around the Wang family's residence these past two days."

Chen Jialuo replied, "Yes, with so many of us coming and going, it's hard not to attract the attention of the Qing bandits."

After meeting with the others, Chen Jialuo raised his concerns, and Xu Tianhong said, "That's right. The Qing dogs have indeed set their sights on this place, and we may have already been exposed. We have no choice but to act quickly, or the consequences will be dire."

Chen Jialuo said, "Then let's do as Seventh Brother said yesterday."

Li Yuanzhi was still in a daze inside when someone called out from outside, "Is Miss Li here?"

Li Yuanzhi recognized the voice and wondered who it was. Upon opening the door, a handsome young man stood before her. Seeing Li Yuanzhi, he asked, "Are you Miss Li Yuanzhi?"

Li Yuanzhi nodded. The young man then took a letter from his robes and handed it to her, saying, "A gentleman asked me to give you this letter."

Li Yuanzhi was about to ask who had sent him, but before she could speak, the young man was already gone.

Full of doubt, Li Yuanzhi took out the letter. It read: "Junior Sister, I haven't seen you for a while. I've missed you dearly. See you at the North City Villa. Your foolish brother, Yu Yutong."

Li Yuanzhi recognized Yu Yutong's handwriting and was both surprised and delighted. She thought to herself, "This simpleton actually knows how to write to me now!" Considering that from their acquaintance to their arranged marriage, Yu Yutong had never uttered a single word of personal affection, this was unprecedented. She carefully put the letter away, dressed herself up, and told Li Kexiu and Cui Ying that she was going to meet a friend before leaving. Seeing her delicately drawn eyebrows, lightly applied rouge, and her pretty face radiant with spring, Li Kexiu and Cui Ying assumed she was going to meet Fukang'an and paid her no attention.

Li Yuanzhi left the city gate and headed towards the manor, completely unaware that someone was following her. The person following her was named Li Lin, a rather shrewd man. He noticed that Li Yuanzhi wasn't heading towards the Wang family's direction, but rather in another direction, and was wondering what was going on when suddenly a strong gust of wind attacked from behind. He knew from the attack that he was no match for his opponent, and immediately dodged the blow with a "lazy donkey roll." Just as he was about to use his lightness skill to escape, a sword light slashed horizontally towards him, truly as swift as lightning. He was greatly alarmed: "Today..." "What a coincidence! To encounter so many peerless masters in this place!"

He was chosen by Fukang'an, so his skills were no ordinary person. Even in mid-air, his momentum was still strong. He ducked down to dodge the attack and then tried to run to the side to escape. But before he could finish the first sword strike, the second sword struck the ground. A "Severing the Qinling Mountains" blocked his way, followed by a swift "Looking Through Autumn Waters" horizontal slash. Li Lin already knew who the attacker was. Just think, who in the world today could wield a sword so fast and ruthlessly, besides Daoist Wuchen?

Seeing that this man had managed to dodge three attacks despite being ambushed, Wu Chen was both surprised and somewhat angry. He thought, "If I can't finish this kid off in ten more moves, what face will I have left?"

So, his longsword moved faster and faster, his "Thirty-Six Styles of the Lost Track Leg" kicking with a whooshing sound. After five more moves, Li Lin only saw a flash of sword light before his eyes, then a heavy blow to the chest. His vision went black, and he crashed heavily to the ground. Another voice laughed, "This kid managed to survive ten rounds against the Daoist Master; he can be considered a man after all."

Wu Chen sheathed his sword and said, "It's a pity he chose the wrong master, entered the wrong sect."

Li Lin's face turned ashen. "Falling into Master Wuchen's hands today isn't entirely shameful,"

Wuchen said. "Heh heh. I hope you really think that way."

Another person said, "Stop wasting time talking to him. Take him away."

After saying that, he sealed Li Lin's acupoints, picked him up, and started walking away, saying, "Didn't you want to know where Li Yuanzhi went? I'll take you there now."

Li Lin remained silent, seeing that Wen Tailai had picked him up but was still as swift as a rabbit, he greatly admired his skill and thought to himself, "There are many masters in the palace, but none of them have his skills. Judging from his age and appearance, could he be Wen Tailai, the fourth leader of the Red Flower Society?"

This person was indeed Wen Tailai.

The three of them arrived outside the manor. Wen Tailai put Li Lin down on the ground, and after a while, two people came out of the manor, one was Xu Tianhong, and the other was Zhao Banshan. Xu Tianhong spoke first, saying, "Brother Li, thank you for coming. I

have something to discuss." Li Lin sneered, "What is it? Speak frankly."

Xu Tianhong said, "Since you're a straightforward person, I won't beat around the bush. Right now, Miss Li Yuanzhi and her parents are discussing returning to Hangzhou. You just need to tell Fukang'an this news, and you know what else to say and what not to say, right?"

Li Lin was taken aback, then laughed, "Hmph, you want me to tell the magistrate this news and lure him out? I can't do that."

Xu Tianhong said, "Brother Li is truly a..." "A smart man. You understand immediately. So you must know the consequences of not cooperating, right?"

Li Lin said, "I'm going to die anyway. I might as well die at your hands and it'll be a quick death."

Xu Tianhong said, "If you cooperate, how could you die? You know, you're only responsible for tracking Li Yuanzhi. If she wants to go back, shouldn't you report to Fukang'an? As for our appearance then, it's not your fault, but the fault of the people who are tracking us. In terms of guilt, they are more serious than you, aren't they?"

Li Lin thought for a moment and then asked, "Li Yuanzhi is going back to Hangzhou? Is this news really reliable?"

"We have no reason to lie to you about this. Right now, her husband is persuading her, and she has most likely already agreed. So you don't need to take the blame for this,"

Xu Tianhong said.

Li Lin gritted his teeth and said, "Fine. I'll trust you this once and cooperate with you. But I'll only be responsible for delivering the message. Everything else is none of my business."

Xu Tianhong said, "Of course. Just do as we tell you, and you don't need to worry about anything else."

At this moment, Master Wuchen pointed his fingers repeatedly, and Li Lin felt a tightness in his chest. His internal energy flow was suddenly disrupted, and he was shocked. He asked, "What is this?"

Xu Tianhong said, "You've experienced Master Wuchen's skills. This is his unique acupoint sealing technique. If it's not removed within six hours, the meridians in the whole body will atrophy on their own until the tendons break and the person dies. Hehe, if you don't believe me, you can talk nonsense in front of Fukang'an then."

Li Lin said, "Seventh Master is indeed worthy of being called Little Zhuge Liang, thorough in everything. I've learned my lesson. But please give me your instructions, and I will follow them."

Fukang'an went to Li Yuanzhi's room and found it empty. He then went to Li Kexiu and Cui Ying's room, which was also empty. He called the waiter and asked where everyone else had gone. The waiter said that Li Yuanzhi had left alone earlier, and shortly afterward, two men came and took Li Kexiu and Cui Ying away in a carriage.

Fukang'an felt something was amiss. Just then, Li Lin entered. Fukang'an, startled, asked, "Why are you back alone? Where is Miss Li?"

Li Lin replied, "I accompanied Miss Li today and discovered she went to meet Yu Yutong."

Fukang'an was both shocked and furious, filled with jealousy, and asked, "And then?"

Li Lin said, "I was afraid they would discover us, so I kept my distance. I vaguely heard Yu Yutong persuading Miss Li to leave the capital."

Fukang'an frowned and said, "She agreed?"

Li Lin said, "It seems so. Later, Yu Yutong even had someone take Lord Li and Madam Li away."

Fukang'an was still somewhat doubtful and asked, "Didn't Yu Yutong say why she wanted her to leave?"

Li Lin said, "He said some things. It seems... it has something to do with you, Master."

Fukang'an was taken aback, then burst into laughter, "That Yu Yutong is incredibly foolish! Does he think Li Yuanzhi can get rid of me just because she went to Hangzhou?"

Li Lin said, "My lord, you are handsome and talented in both literature and martial arts, far superior to a mere petty thief. However, if you let her go now, I fear you will have lost a step. Furthermore, you are busy with official duties, and Hangzhou is a thousand miles away. It will be very difficult to see her again in the future."

Fukang'an asked, "You mean you want me to go and bring her back?"

Li Lin said, "No, Li Yuanzhi is just a young woman. How can I trouble you, my lord, to go in person? If you write a letter yourself and I deliver it, I'm afraid she won't obediently return."

Fukang'an said, "This Li Yuanzhi is not like other women. It seems that it is better for me to go in person, so as to show my sincerity."

Saying this, he ordered someone to prepare a horse. A man beside him hurriedly said, "My lord, the Red Flower Society is currently rampant, and we only have a few people. I'm afraid it's not appropriate."

Fukang'an thought for a moment and said, "Go and summon Wenzhen."

Li Lin responded and was about to leave when a man ran in from outside. It was Wenzhen, whom Fukang'an had just said he would summon. Seeing that he was covered in sweat and his face and brows were full of excitement, Fukang'an asked, "Wenzhen, what's making you so excited?"

Wenzhen said, "My lord, it's fantastic news! Just half an hour ago, all the Red Flower Society bandits gathered at the Wang family's residence. I counted them, and not a single one was missing. It's the perfect opportunity to wipe them out in one fell swoop."

Fukang'an immediately exclaimed, "Good! Go to the palace immediately to see the Emperor. Request that he dispatch the Imperial Guards to assist you. Also, go to the Nine Gates Commander, Lord Chen... " "Send out all the elite troops from his forces and surround the Wang family. Don't let a single one escape."

Wen Zhen accepted the order and hurriedly left. Fukang'an said, "Today can be considered a great success. Hmm, you few come with me to see Miss Li."

The first man spoke up and then asked, "Sir, shouldn't we bring more men?"

Fukang'an replied, "I've already sent out all my men. Where would I find more? Xu An, when did you become so timid? Didn't you hear that the leaders of the Red Flower Society are already gathered at the Wang family? Do they have the ability to be in two places at once? Hurry up and go with me to keep Miss Li here so we can return in time to witness how those Red Flower Society rebels submit to the steel blades of our Great Qing."

Xu An thought to himself: Since the leaders of the Red Flower Society are not here, the remaining lackeys are not a threat, so he nodded.

Guided by Li Lin, Fukang'an, accompanied by four attendants, hurried out of the city. Arriving at the manor, Li Lin said, "I've come here with Li Yuanzhi today. I wonder if she's still here, or if she's already set off."

Fukang'an replied, "Let's go in and see."

Li Lin agreed. Just then, a loud voice said, "Lord Fu, it's been several months. How are you?"

Fukang'an recognized the speaker as Chen Jialuo and gasped. He turned to leave, but the Red Flower Society members had already appeared around him. Fukang'an, filled with fear and trepidation, asked, "You...how did you get here?"

Chen Jialuo smiled and said, "We just heard from our fourteenth brother that his wife was returning to Hangzhou, so we came to see her off. We never expected to run into you here, Lord Fu. It's truly a joyous occasion."

Hearing this, Li Lin felt a weight lifted from his heart, thinking that he had extricated himself from many troubles.

Fukang'an glanced around at the surrounding people, including Wuchen and Wen Tailai, all of whom were top-tier experts in the world. He knew they were likely in grave danger, and felt utterly dejected. He asked, "How did you get out of the Wang family?"

Fukang'an truly couldn't understand how this group had managed to slip out so quietly when his men had already surrounded the Wang family compound.

Chen Jialuo smiled and said, "That's none of your concern. Lord Fu, are you going to surrender willingly or fight to the end?"

Fukang'an replied, "You're dealing with me. Release my men."

Chen Jialuo said, "Of course, we don't have the resources to support them."

He then gestured for the Red Flower Society members to make way for Li Lin, Xu An, and the others to retreat.

Xu An suddenly slapped Fukang'an's horse hard on the belly and shouted, "My lord, go quickly, I'll cover the rear."

Fukang'an's horse was startled and galloped away like an arrow. The incident happened so suddenly that none of the Red Flower Society members had time to react. Fukang'an's horse was a rare gem, and when it was hurt, it galloped away as fast as lightning.

Just as Fukang'an was about to escape the encirclement, a loud shout rang out: "You scoundrel, where do you think you're going!"

A loud thud followed, and the galloping horse collapsed to the ground. Fukang'an was thrown from his horse and fell heavily to the ground, spitting blood. The shouter also slumped to the ground, pale-faced. The crowd, regaining their senses, recognized him as Wen Tailai. It turned out that, seeing Fukang'an about to escape, in his desperation, he had blocked the road and punched the horse in the head. Although the horse was killed, the force of the galloping horse was immense, instantly dislodging Wen Tailai's internal organs. Luo Bing quickly scooped Wen Tailai up and ran into the inner room, while the others were already engaged in a fierce battle with Xu An and his men.

Before long, Xu An, Li Lin, and the others who had arrived were all subdued. Yu Yutong lifted Fukang'an off the ground and said, "Why torture yourself like this?"

Fukang'an endured the pain and said, "What I suffered today, I will repay tenfold if I have the chance in the future."

Yu Yutong said, "Thank you for your kindness, we're waiting. However, Lord Fu, this is the second time we've caught you, hehe, maybe there will be a third, a fourth time..."

As Yu Yutong spoke, he turned around to take Fukang'an into the manor, but suddenly his face changed drastically, his eyes filled with surprise and terror, as if he had encountered a ghost. At the manor gate, Wen Tailai stood side by side with a beautiful woman. Wen Tailai's face was deathly pale, and his clothes were stained with blood. A gleaming longsword was held to his neck. The woman holding the sword shouted, "Release him immediately, or I'll kill him!"

Yu Yutong finally couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine and asked, "Do you really want to be our enemy?"

"Senior brother, it's not my choice. You forced me to."

Li Yuanzhi's face was pale.

She had been staying in her room, but hearing the commotion outside, she went out and happened to see Fukang'an fall from his horse. She was a clever woman, and after a moment's thought, she understood why Fukang'an was here. For a moment, she felt dizzy, thinking, "My senior brother used me to trick Fukang'an into coming here. What if something happens to him? How could I live with myself?"

Especially considering all the good Fukang'an had done for her, she thought, "No matter what, I have to get him out of here first. I don't care what happens after that."

Having made up her mind, she started thinking of a plan. Just then, she saw Luo Bing helping the injured Wentai in. An idea popped into her head, but after careful consideration, she realized there was no other way. So, she steeled herself, knocked down the unsuspecting Luo Bing, and took Wentai hostage to the door.

Yu Yutong said, "Junior Sister, you heard that we captured Fukang'an with absolutely no intention of harming him. As long as he releases Uncle Zhou, we'll let him go back."

Li Yuanzhi's eyes reddened as she said, "For Uncle Zhou, you've even abandoned me, your wife. You want to be a great hero, but you've left me with the stigma of ingratitude. How can you bear it? I told you before that I have no objection to how you treat him, but if you're using me, that's absolutely unacceptable. Have you forgotten?"

Yu Yutong was at a loss for words and didn't know what to say for a moment. Xu Tianhong said, "Sister Zhi, this was originally my idea, so don't blame Fourteenth Brother. The Red Flower Society has never treated you as an outsider. Can't we, as family, talk things out calmly?"

Li Yuanzhi's face hardened as she said, "Now you're thinking about brotherhood? When you plotted against me, didn't you consider my feelings?"

Huo Qingtong whispered to Chen Jialuo, "Fourth Brother is seriously injured; dragging this out won't be good for his health."

Chen Jialuo asked, "Then what should we do?"

Huo Qingtong said, "Sister Zhi has a strong personality; once she's made up her mind, no one can change it. I think you should carefully weigh the pros and cons."

Xu Tianhong also looked at Chen Jialuo, his meaning clear: let him make the decision. After pondering for a while, Chen Jialuo said, "Brothers, let them go!"

Upon hearing this, Fukang'an and the others were overjoyed, but the Red Flower Society members were somewhat dejected.

(The Book and the Sword, Continued, Chapter Sixteen: A Sorrowful Heart and Mind for Others)

Fukang'an mounted his horse and turned back to Li Yuanzhi, saying, "Sister Yuanzhi, come back soon. I'll be waiting for you."

Li Yuanzhi remained expressionless and ignored him. After Fukang'an and his group had gone far away, Li Yuanzhi removed her longsword from Wen Tailai's neck, released his pressure points, and said, "Fourth Brother, I'm sorry for my rudeness."

Wen Tailai glared angrily, opened his mouth to speak, but felt a sweet taste in his throat, and spat out blood again. Xu Tianhong quickly had someone help him inside to rest.

The remaining people looked at Li Yuanzhi, who stood there dumbfounded, their hearts filled with mixed feelings, not knowing where to begin. Li Yuanzhi smiled bitterly and said, "Right now, I'm the one who has wronged you brothers. Kill me or do whatever you want with me. I have no complaints."

Just as Wuchen was about to raise his longsword, Chen Jialuo stopped him, saying, "That's enough. It's come to this. What's the use of killing her?"

Then he said to Li Yuanzhi, "Miss Li, we've been friends. It's not what anyone wanted for things to turn out like this. Let's leave it at that, and from now on, we'll go our separate ways." "The road ahead is clear. There's no room for leniency. I hope you'll take care of yourself."

After saying this, he went inside. The others were furious with Li Yuanzhi, but since Chen Jialuo had given his word and was going to let her go, they could only glare at her and follow Chen Jialuo into the inner room. Yu Yutong lingered beside Li Yuanzhi for a moment, wanting to say something, but finally held back and walked inside with a heavy heart. Li Yuanzhi watched the departing figures, her heart breaking. She knew that she and they would probably never cross paths again in this life.

At this moment, Li Kexiu and Cui Ying walked to Li Yuanzhi's side. Li Yuanzhi could no longer control her emotions and threw herself into Cui Ying's arms, sobbing uncontrollably...

The heroes sat in the hall. After taking Wen Tailai's pulse, Zhao Banshan came out and said, "Fourth Brother's injuries are quite serious. I can't find a better way in time. Right now, we can only stabilize his condition first."

Xu Tianhong said, "I'll leave everything to Third Brother. However, we've been exposed here, so we need to move quickly."

Chen Jialuo said, "Earlier, my master had a house in the suburbs of Beijing that could accommodate more than ten people. Let's stay there for now."

So everyone immediately set off and, guided by Chen Jialuo, moved into his master's old house.

That night, Luo Bing looked at Wen Tailai lying on the bed, pale and weak, her heart aching, tears streaming down her face. Hearing his wife's sobs, Wen Tailai slowly opened his eyes and said, "Bingmei, why are you crying? I'm perfectly healthy!"

Luo Bing wiped away her tears and said, "Yes, yes."

Wen Tailai said, "I don't even have a son yet. To die like this would be a wasted life."

Luo Bing smiled bitterly, "Brother, we will definitely have a child."

Wen Tailai smiled and said, "If you could give me a son right now, my injuries would heal immediately."

Luo Bing blushed and scolded, "At a time like this, you still have the mind to joke."

Wen Tailai sighed deeply. He said, "Bingmei, we've been married for almost 20 years now, haven't we? I'm getting more and more afraid."

Luo Bing asked, "What are you afraid of?"

Wen Tailai said, "I'm afraid the Wen family line will end with me."

Luo Bing was startled and said, "No, brother."

Wen Tailai said, "Some people said before that practicing this martial art would affect fertility, and I didn't believe it. Now it seems it's true." Luo Bing

said, "Brother, most quack doctors deceive and exaggerate illnesses to swindle money. You don't need to take it to heart. There's no martial art in the world that can prevent someone from having children."

Wen Tailai smiled bitterly, "Back then, my master also had no children. Now I wonder if it was because of practicing this skill... " "Yes."

Seeing his dejected expression, Luo Bing casually said, "If I told you now that I'm pregnant, would you believe me?"

Wen Tailai's eyes lit up, his face flushed, and he grabbed Luo Bing's hand, asking, "What did you say? You're pregnant?"

Luo Bing thought she should make him happy first, so she nodded and said, "Of course it's true. I saw you've been busy these past few days, and I was planning to tell you when I had some free time."

Wen Tailai smiled with joy, but unexpectedly felt a sharp pain in his chest and kept coughing while clutching his chest. Luo Bing said anxiously, "Brother, what's wrong? Are you alright?"

Wen Tailai caught his breath and said, "I'm fine. Hearing this news from you is more exciting than killing ten dog emperors."

Luo Bing forced a smile. He said, "Brother, you should focus on recovering first. After you're healed, we can have a hundred, a thousand, it doesn't matter. By then, I'm afraid you'll find too many sons and get tired of them."

Wen Tailai reached out and touched Luo Bing's lower abdomen, saying, "Let me feel how old our son is."

Luo Bing nodded shyly, letting Wen Tailai's hand slide across her smooth lower abdomen. Gradually, Luo Bing felt as if Wen Tailai's palm was carrying a ball of fire, burning her body with heat. A long-lost feeling spread throughout her body, her breasts seemed to harden, and her breathing became stronger. Luo Bing quickly moved Wen Tailai's hand away and said, "Brother, you rest. I'll go and brew your medicine."

Luo Bing went to the kitchen, where medicine was being brewed. Someone behind her said, "Fourth Sister-in-law, what are you cooking so late?"

Luo Bing turned around and saw Chen Jialuo. She smiled and said, "I'm preparing medicine for your fourth brother. What are you doing here so late?"

Chen Jialuo said, "I came out for a walk. I saw a fire here, so I came in to take a look."

Luo Bing said, "I thought you hadn't eaten enough for dinner. Now you're sneaking in to eat while everyone is sleeping."

Chen Jialuo laughed and said, "Fourth Sister-in-law, you're joking. By the way, is Fourth Brother's injury any better?"

Luo Bing said, "After taking Third Brother's medicine, he's much better. Chief, it's hot in here, let's go outside to talk."

The two went to the courtyard. The moonlight was like water, and the shadows of the trees were heavy. Luo Bing took a deep breath and said, "Chief, with such a beautiful scene before you, do you have any good lines to write?"

"The round moon is as white as a mirror, reflecting the beauty of the fair lady,"

Chen Jialuo blurted out. Luo Bing was delighted that Chen Jialuo compared her to the full moon and laughed, "Chief, if Chang'e hears you praising me like that, she might shorten my lifespan."

Chen Jialuo replied, "That's not necessarily true. I'm afraid the fairies in heaven, seeing your beautiful face, will all wish you a long and healthy life."

"Why is that?"

Luo Bing asked.

"Think about it, a woman as beautiful as you, after you die and go to heaven, you'll have to overshadow them. Would they allow that to happen? So they can only hope that you live as long as heaven itself."

Luo Bing giggled, "You have such a sweet tongue."

Chen Jialuo smiled and let it go. Luo

Bing continued, "Just now, I told Fourth Brother that I'm pregnant."

Chen Jialuo was taken aback: "You're pregnant?"

Luo Bing blushed and said reproachfully, "I was just trying to make him happy."

Chen Jialuo said, "What's the big deal? Just find a time to be honest with him. How could Fourth Brother bear to hold a grudge against you over such a trivial matter?"

Luo Bing sighed softly and said, "If he knew I was lying to him, he would be extremely disappointed. I can tell he genuinely wants a child."

Chen Jialuo said, "Then what do you suggest? You can't just stuff a child into your belly out of thin air. How about I, your humble brother, gladly help you have a son?"

Upon hearing this, he immediately sensed something was wrong. Seeing Luo Bing's face turn from red to white, he felt uneasy and thought to himself, "Oh no, how could he joke like this?" But

then he heard Luo Bing giggle and say, "Look at you, so calm... " "You seem so serious all the time, yet you're always thinking about taking advantage of others?"

Chen Jialuo heard Luo Bing's melodious laughter, like silver bells, and her bright, lovely smile. A hidden desire within him surged. Looking directly at Luo Bing, he said, "Fourth Sister-in-law, I'm serious."

Luo Bing avoided Chen Jialuo's burning gaze, flustered, and said, "I...I'll go check if the medicine is ready."

Just as she turned around, she felt Chen Jialuo's arm around her slender waist, his face pressed against her hair. He said, "Fourth Sister-in-law, don't you want to give Fourth Brother a baby?"

Luo Bing was startled, then struggled to break free from Chen Jialuo's grasp. Forgetting about checking if the medicine was ready, she ran back to her room.

Although Luo Bing's figure had disappeared, Chen Jialuo could still feel the smooth, delicate touch on his hands, and the faint, alluring fragrance of her body lingered in the air, making it unforgettable.

After a moment's thought, he went into the kitchen and saw that the medicine was boiling. He carefully poured it into a bowl and carried it to Wen Tailai's room. He saw Luo Bing sitting on the edge of the bed chatting with Wen Tailai. Seeing him enter, her pretty face flushed, and she stepped aside. Wen Tailai was also surprised to see Chen Jialuo carrying the bowl of medicine, saying, "Oh dear, how can this be? Bing-mei, quickly, help the Grand Master take this."

Luo Bing had no choice but to go over and reach out to take it. As they took it, their fingers touched, and Luo Bing felt her heart race. Chen Jialuo said... "Fourth Brother, take your medicine slowly. I'm going back now."

Wen Tailai saw Chen Jialuo leave and asked, "Bingmei, weren't you the one who went to brew the medicine? Why did the Chief bring it in instead?"

Luo Bing, still feeling a bit flustered thinking about what had happened in the kitchen, said, "He was afraid you'd be lonely, so he had me come in to keep you company. He helped brew the medicine."

Wen Tailai said, "I see. Although the Chief can sometimes seem a bit sentimental and indecisive, he's ultimately a righteous person and hasn't disgraced his adoptive father." "Your reputation is well-known."

Luo Bing said, "Well, if we're talking about heroes these days, who can compare to you, brother?"

Wen Tailai laughed, "I'll have to be a hero less often in the future."

Luo Bing was taken aback, and Wen Tailai continued, "If I don't become a hero, I'll have more time to take care of you and our baby. Otherwise, what would be the point of having you brew medicine for me while you're heavily pregnant? Wouldn't everyone laugh at us? I'm afraid the baby won't even recognize me when it's born."

Luo Bing smiled broadly, "That would be great. It would save me from worrying about you."

Wen Tailai hugged her tightly. Luo Bing leaned against Wen Tailai's chest and said affectionately, "You've suffered so much following me all these years!"

Luo Bing buried her head in Wen Tailai's chest and said, "No. Brother, it's my own choice. I think it's good."

Wen Tailai said, "The situation is different now than it was back then. I'm thinking that after we rescue Uncle Zhou this time, we can take our little baby and find a quiet, secluded place to live a good life. What do you say?"

Luo Bing said, "I'll listen to you."

Fukang'an led Xu An, Li Lin, and the others back to the mansion. When Fu Hengshi saw Fukang'an's clothes stained with blood, she panicked and helped him into the inner room. She called a doctor to take his pulse before asking Xu An for details. Xu An had just finished explaining what had happened. Just then, someone outside shouted, "The Emperor has arrived!"

Everyone inside rushed to the door to kneel and greet him. Qianlong, his face dark with displeasure, asked Fu Hengshi, "Where is Fukang'an?"

Fu Hengshi replied, "He's injured and resting inside."

Qianlong was taken aback and asked, "What happened?"

Fu Hengshi then recounted Xu An's story,

except that Fukang'an had been tricked while spying on the Red Flower Society. Qianlong's expression softened somewhat, and he said, "What exactly happened? He sent someone into the palace earlier, claiming he had discovered the Red Flower Society's headquarters and requested troops, but when the person arrived, he wasn't there, and we didn't see a single member of the Red Flower Society."

Li Lin said, "Your Majesty, Wen Zhen did indeed tell my master that. But as soon as Wen Zhen left, someone reported that there seemed to be Red Flower Society members active outside the city. My master wanted to investigate, but fearing it was a diversionary tactic by the Red Flower Society, he didn't dare move the guards from the area around the Wang family." "They only took a few of us with them to investigate, but we were unexpectedly discovered by the Red Flower Society. A bloody battle ensued, and my whole family was injured."

Qianlong said, "So that's how it is. But how did the Red Flower Society leave the Wang family without anyone noticing?"

Wenzhen then said, "When I was carefully inspecting the Wang family's residence just now, I discovered a secret passage in the courtyard. They must have left through there. I willingly accept the blame for my oversight."

Qianlong sighed, "The Red Flower Society is cunning; I have already experienced it many times. It's not your fault. You may all go and rest."

Everyone responded with "Yes," and withdrew.

Only Qianlong and Fuheng remained. Qianlong chuckled and reached out to embrace Fuheng, saying, "I haven't seen you for days, I've missed you terribly."

Fuheng blushed and said, "He's sick. He can't leave."

Qianlong laughed, "Let's go. Let's go see Kang'er first."

The two went to Fukang'an's room, just as the doctor came out. He knelt down to greet Qianlong, who asked about Fukang'an's condition. The doctor replied, "Lord Fu is fine. He'll be alright after a few days of rest."

Fuheng gave him some silver to send him away, then went into the room and saw that Fukang'an had already fallen asleep. Quietly emerging from the room, Qianlong chuckled, "Shall we go to your room and play for a bit?"

Fu Hengshi blushed and retorted, "He's home. Stop fooling around. I'll go to the palace tonight."

Having let the Red Flower Society members escape, Qianlong wasn't in the mood, so he simply said, "Alright. Then I'll be waiting for you tonight." The next day, Fukang'an woke up and summoned Li Lin, asking, "Where is Miss Li now?"

Li Lin replied, "She's already returned to the inn with Lord Li and Madam Li."

Fukang'an said, "Let's go. Let's go see her."

Li Lin hesitated for a moment and said, "Is it your injury?"

"It's nothing,"

Fukang'an said. He then led his men to the inn, where Li Kexiu sat with a worried expression. Seeing Fukang'an arrive, she was overjoyed and said, "Lord Fu, it's so good to have you here. My daughter has been lying in bed since she returned yesterday, neither getting up nor speaking. I don't know what's wrong."

Fukang'an said, "You wait outside. I'll go in and see."

Entering, he indeed saw Li Yuanzhi lying in bed covered with a blanket. Fukang'an gently walked to the bedside and asked, "Yuanzhi, what's wrong?"

Li Yuanzhi turned around upon hearing Fukang'an's voice. Seeing her pale face, red and slightly swollen eyes, Fukang'an felt a pang of pity. He sat down beside her and said, "Look at you, a grown woman. You still don't know how to take care of yourself. You insist on causing me heartache."

Li Yuanzhi said, "Your injuries haven't healed yet. Why aren't you resting properly? Why did you come to see me?"

Fukang'an said, "I was just worried about you. Besides, you should thank me properly."

Li Yuanzhi said, "Your injury is all my fault. I feel really bad about it."

Fukang'an said, "It's not your fault. I never imagined the Red Flower Society would be so cunning. They used you as bait to lure me in."

Li Yuanzhi suddenly realized that the Red Flower Society members probably already thought she and Fukang'an had an ambiguous relationship, otherwise they wouldn't have acted so solemnly. Her beautiful eyes met Fukang'an's handsome face and caring gaze, and her heart couldn't help but think, "I've already broken ties with the Red Flower Society. So my relationship with my senior brother is probably over too. Will this person be my life partner?"

Fukang'an saw the many changes in her expression and didn't know what she was thinking, so he said, "Sister Zhi, you've already fallen out with the Red Flower Society because of me. Staying here might be inconvenient. Why don't you move to my residence? It would be better to have someone to look after you."

Li Yuanzhi said, "It's alright. I understand the Red Flower Society." "I won't bother them anymore. They won't bother me."

Fukang'an said, "What about me? Aren't you going to consider moving in for me?"

Li Yuanzhi retorted in a low voice, "I'm nothing to you, why would I move in for you?"

Fukang'an held her hand and said, "Since you stepped forward to save me this time, it's clear how much you care for me. Are you going to continue deceiving your own feelings?"

Li Yuanzhi said, "I saved you this time mostly to repay the kindness you showed me by saving my parents. Don't overthink it."

Fukang'an laughed, "Mostly? That means you still like me a little bit. Hehe, I don't mind. Feelings can be built up slowly."

Li Yuanzhi said, "You're so thick-skinned, you could build a city wall with it."

Fukang'an said, "Nonsense. My skin is thin and thin. You can touch it if you don't believe me."

He then pressed Li Yuanzhi's soft little hand against his face and rubbed it back and forth. Soon, their gazes became hazy with longing. Fukang'an held her small hand, kissed it lightly, and said, "Such fragrant little hands."

Li Yuanzhi blushed deeply, playfully punched Fukang'an's chest, and laughed, "You're such a chatterbox."

Fukang'an's injury hadn't fully healed, and even though the punch wasn't hard, it made him wince in pain. Li Yuanzhi said, "Weren't you all better?"

Fukang'an replied, "I was better. But seeing you like this, it's flared up again."

Li Yuanzhi was secretly pleased, but said aloud, "You're so silly. Go back and rest."

Fukang'an grinned, "Our plans aren't settled yet. I can't sleep or eat properly."

Li Yuanzhi's smile vanished. "I'm feeling really confused right now," she said. "Can you give me some time to think things through?"

Fukang'an replied, "I'll give you time. I know that emotional wounds need time to heal. But I don't want to see you looking so dejected."

Li Yuanzhi smiled and said, "Alright. Stop nagging like an old woman."

Fukang'an saw a trace of worry in her eyes, but her face had regained its former radiance, and he was very pleased. He said, "I'll go back now. I'll come see you another day."

Li Yuanzhi nodded, watching Fukang'an leave, feeling a mix of emotions.

"Brother Chen, have you thought of any good ideas these past few days?"

Huo Qingtong asked.

"What good ideas?"

Chen Jialuo was taken aback.

Huo Qingtong said, "Of course it's about saving Uncle Zhou. I wonder what you do all day?"

Chen Jialuo said, "Of course it's about you two making love in bed! Ouch..."

Before Chen Jialuo could finish speaking, Huo Qingtong punched him in the chest. He clutched his chest, feigning pain, and said, "Are you trying to murder your husband?"

Huo Qingtong said, "You're so indecent. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I'll hit you again."

Seeing that Huo Qingtong's pretty face became even more beautiful with her slight anger, Chen Jialuo couldn't help but pull Huo Qingtong into his arms, gently stroking her hair as he said, "Tongmei, you're so beautiful!"

Huo Qingtong nestled obediently in Chen Jialuo's arms, feeling his body grow warmer and warmer . The hotter it got, the more she asked, "Brother, why have you been so lustful these past few days? We sisters have been fooling around with you every day, and it still doesn't seem like enough."

Chen Jialuo's mind went blank for a moment, and he was also a little puzzled: "I don't know either. Anyway, now when I see you, I can't control myself."

Huo Qingtong said, "I'm afraid it's not just me who can't control myself. The way you look at Fourth Sister-in-law is like a starving wolf seeing a rabbit."

Chen Jialuo quickly changed the subject: "You mentioned Uncle Zhou earlier, could it be that you have a good idea?"

Huo Qingtong said, "It was just a sudden inspiration. I don't know if it will work?"

Chen Jialuo smiled and said, "It will definitely work." "Even if you came up with an idea with your toes, it would be a hundred times better than ours."

Huo Qingtong laughed, "You're just too good at flattering. Actually, this idea isn't that new. The other day I saw that Fukang'an looks like you. It suddenly occurred to me, if you disguise yourself as him, wouldn't it be easy to get into the Heavenly Prison and rescue Uncle Zhou and the others?"

Chen Jialuo said, "That's right. That's right. From beginning to end, Fukang'an was the only one in charge of these things. If I disguise myself as him, go to the Heavenly Prison, and I can easily bring them out. Ah, why didn't we think of that before? However, there's a key point here. Although I look very much like Fukang'an, it seems..." " Their demeanor, their manner, even their tone of voice are so different; anyone who has met us can tell at a glance. How can we hide this from those jailers?"

Huo Qingtong said, "Appearance is determined by genetics. But demeanor and manner can be changed later in life. I just don't know if you have the patience to imitate and learn from him."

Chen Jialuo said, "To save Uncle Zhou, we have no choice but to do this. Tongmei, thank you so much."

Huo Qingtong closed her eyes and pretended to sleep in Chen Jialuo's arms, saying, "Why thank me? Just keep your promise to us and don't let me down."

Chen Jialuo said, "What are you saying? From now on, I will treat everyone with utmost care and affection."

"Only me?"

Huo Qingtong asked.

"And Qimei, Hongye, and Juanjie,"

Chen Jialuo had no choice but to say.

"And others?"

Huo Qingtong asked slyly.

Chen Jialuo said, "I have no other women besides you."

Huo Qingtong said, "The one in my belly. Don't you feel any pity or pain?"

Chen Jialuo was stunned, then overjoyed, and asked, "You...you have a child?"

A glimmer of happiness flashed across Huo Qingtong's pretty face as she said, "Yes. The doctor said yesterday that I'm a month along."

Chen Jialuo immediately picked up Huo Qingtong and spun her around, exclaiming, "This is wonderful! I'm going to be a father!"

Huo Qingtong scolded, "Oh dear, put me down quickly. Otherwise, you'll hurt the baby. I won't forgive you."

"Okay, okay."

Chen Jialuo was excited for a moment, but now, thinking about what Huo Qingtong had said, he broke out in a cold sweat.

Huo Qingtong couldn't help but giggle at his flustered appearance. At this moment, a voice came and said, "What's making you so happy?"

Huo Qingtong and Chen Jialuo looked over and saw that it was Zhou Qi who had asked the question. She was holding a child, and Xu Tianhong and Wen Tailai were with her beside her. Chen Jialuo excitedly said, "Tongmei is pregnant!"

The other four were also surprised and delighted upon hearing this. Zhou Qi smiled and said, "Congratulations, Qingtong! Oh my, now my son will have a companion."

Xu Tianhong said, "This is good news. Chief, let me tell you first, if a girl is born, she must be given to my son in marriage." Before

Chen Jialuo could answer, Wen Tailai exclaimed from the side, "That won't do. Why should she marry your brat?"

Xu Tianhong laughed, "Fourth Brother is joking. Unless you and Fourth Sister-in-law work harder to have a baby, we're determined to have the Chief's daughter."

Zhou Qi laughed, "That's right. Fourth Sister-in-law, you've been married for so long, it's time to have a child."

Before Luo Bing could speak, Wen Tailai interrupted, "Hehe, you're all so cunning. You couldn't have guessed your Fourth Sister-in-law was pregnant, could you?"

Upon hearing this, everyone except Luo Bing and Chen Jialuo was overjoyed. Huo Qingtong even found a kindred spirit and kept asking Luo Bing questions, which Luo Bing answered with a forced smile. After a while of joking around, Wen Tailai felt unwell, and Luo Bing helped him back to rest. Chen Jialuo humbly shared Huo Qingtong's idea with Xu Tianhong, seeking his opinion. Xu Tianhong pondered for a moment and said, "This plan can work. However, it will be quite tiring for you."

Chen Jialuo replied, "It's a matter between brothers. What's there to be tired about?"

"Well, it's best to familiarize yourself with the situation inside the prison. I'll organize the information inside for you later."

Chen Jialuo nodded and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Seventh Brother. Fukang'an is a cunning fellow; he would never expect us to pull this stunt."

While Chen Jialuo and the others were discussing countermeasures, Fukang'an was enthusiastically chatting with Li Yuanzhi. He was surprised to find that after a few days of rest, Li Yuanzhi's spirits had greatly improved, and her attitude towards him had become much warmer. This experience made him feel that their relationship had actually progressed further after this ordeal. Li Yuanzhi spoke eloquently until she noticed that Fukang'an was just smiling and watching her. She asked, "What? Did I say something wrong?"

Fukang'an seemed to suddenly come to his senses and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes."

Li Yuanzhi turned away, a little displeased, "I think you weren't listening to me carefully."

Fukang'an said apologetically, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I was thinking about something else and got distracted."

Li Yuanzhi said coquettishly, "Then you can stay here and think about it slowly. I'm leaving."

With that, she took light steps and went back to her room. Fukang'an didn't expect her to leave so suddenly. By the time he realized what was happening, Li Yuanzhi was already ten steps away. He hurriedly followed.

They then entered the room. Li Yuanzhi sat on the edge of the bed. Seeing Fukang'an arrive, she remained silent, her face tense. Fukang'an stood beside her and said, "Miss, I'm truly sorry. It wasn't that I wasn't listening to you. It's just that I was momentarily captivated by your beautiful face and couldn't help myself. I'll remember this lesson from now on. Appreciating beauty is important, but obedience is paramount."

Li Yuanzhi couldn't help but chuckle. Fukang'an, seeing her laughter... Adorned in her finest attire, her face as beautiful as a flower, Fukang'an's heart stirred with

a sudden, passionate thud. He placed his hands on her shoulders and called out tenderly, "Sister Zhi." Li Yuanzhi felt Fukang'an's burning desire, her heart pounding. She lowered her head, not daring to look at him. Fukang'an gently lifted her soft chin with his right hand, and Li Yuanzhi let out a soft "hmm," her breathing becoming rapid. Her eyes closed, and her small, rosy lips moved slightly. Fukang'an's lips pressed against hers, and their lips met in a kiss.

Li Yuanzhi initially resisted, but later she tightly gripped Fukang'an's neck with both hands, her teeth slightly parted, allowing Fukang'an's tongue to linger in her mouth. As the kiss deepened, Fukang'an's hands roamed over Li Yuanzhi's delicate body, soon reaching her long-missed breasts. He grasped her breasts, gently kneading and caressing them. Li Yuanzhi's lips parted, and she couldn't help but let out a soft "Ah!" Fukang'an's hands kneaded her breasts, his eyes gazing at Li Yuanzhi's pretty face, which gradually turned red, a misty haze settling over his clear eyes. His hands left Li Yuanzhi's full breasts, unbuttoning her clothes. Li Yuanzhi grabbed his hands, opened her eyes, and asked, "Brother Fu, do you truly love me?"

Fukang'an nodded, saying, "I love you. I've always loved you, and I will always love you."

Li Yuanzhi responded passionately, " "Brother Fu, from this day forward, Zhi'er's heart will only belong to you."

Fu Kang'an said, "I will not let you down."

Li Yuanzhi's small hand released Fu Kang'an's hand, and she cooperated with him to take off her clothes. Looking at Li Yuanzhi's plump and snow-white body, Fu Kang'an felt a dry mouth. He gently laid Li Yuanzhi down on the bed. While taking off his own clothes, he admired Li Yuanzhi's moving body: the curvaceous figure, the snow-white and shiny skin, the high and firm breasts, two bright red areolas surrounding a nipple the size of a peanut, the entire breast looked crystal clear like jade, round like a ball, even when lying down, it still stood proudly upright, the smooth and flat abdomen without a trace of fat below was a lush black forest, a pair of round and fair thighs tightly closed, guarding Li Yuanzhi's biggest secret.

After Fukang'an took off his clothes and got into bed, he kissed Li Yuanzhi's eyes, nose, cherry lips, and neck, moving down to her neck. He held her breasts in his hands, squeezing them gently and lightly biting her nipples. After playing with them for a while, he switched the position, pinching her nipples with his thumb and forefinger. He kissed her snow-white breasts repeatedly, licking them with his tongue. Then he sat down under Li Yuanzhi and spread her thighs wide. Li Yuanzhi saw Fukang'an admiring her lower body without blinking, and her face flushed. She couldn't help but twist her body slightly.

Fukang'an first combed through the messy pubic hair on Li Yuanzhi's mons pubis with his hands, then opened Li Yuanzhi's labia with his left hand, revealing the bright red vulva inside. After observing it carefully for a while, he inserted his right fingers to pinch the "little bean sprout" standing in the middle, and his left hand also found the clitoris at the top of the labia minora and rubbed it. Li Yuanzhi cried out "Ah!" and her body kept turning from side to side until her labia became wet. Fukang'an pinched each of her labia majora with both hands and pulled them apart, revealing Li Yuanzhi's entire vulva without reservation. The tender flesh undulated slightly because of her rapid breathing.

Fukang'an stuck out his tongue and licked her hard from top to bottom. Li Yuanzhi felt as if she had been electrocuted, and cried out "Oh!" She felt a tingling, itchy sensation in her private parts, and a sticky, soft thing was sweeping back and forth in every corner of her private parts. Wherever it touched, her whole body trembled. She forced open her almond-shaped eyes slightly, suppressing her shame, and saw Fukang'an with his mouth wide open, stroking her with his tongue. She was shocked and cried out, "Big brother...don't...it's dirty...

" Kang An grinned wickedly, withdrew his tongue, and pressed his mouth against her vulva, sucking hard on her vagina. Li Yuanzhi let out an "Ah!" as a stream of warm, viscous vaginal fluid gushed out. Fu Kang An sucked it in deeply, even smacking his lips as he savored it. Li Yuanzhi lay there, completely limp, her mouth wide open, panting heavily. Fu Kang An's erect penis ground against the entrance of Li Yuanzhi's vagina, then the glans parted her labia, ready to penetrate her.

Li Yuanzhi, lost in thought, burst into tears. Fukang'an, startled, stopped his thrusting and asked, "Yuanzhi, what's wrong? Does it hurt?"

Li Yuanzhi shook her head, her tears flowing even more freely. Fukang'an, as if remembering something, cried out, "Are you still thinking about Yu Yutong?"

Li Yuanzhi covered her face with her eyes and cried, "No. No."

Fukang'an abruptly pulled her hands away and shouted, "Open your eyes and look carefully. I am your husband now. I won't allow you to think about him anymore!"

Li Yuanzhi opened her watery eyes, looked at Fukang'an's face, flushed with emotion, and said softly, "I'm sorry. I just couldn't control myself."

Fukang'an lowered his head and gently licked the tears from her face and the corners of her eyes, saying, "Yuanzhi, I love you!"

Li Yuanzhi cupped Fukang'an's cheeks in her hands, her face resolute, and said, "Brother Fu, come in!"

After saying this, her face turned pink, and her eyes closed again. Following instructions, Fukang'an's penis "set sail" once more, slowly breaking through the obstacles. Li Yuanzhi let out a muffled groan as Fukang'an's penis reached her core. Looking down, Fukang'an saw his penis completely engulfed Li Yuanzhi's body. Li Yuanzhi's labia were forced open, tightly gripping his penis. He savored the warmth and tightness of her vagina. Fukang'an held Li Yuanzhi's slender waist and began to thrust. Each thrust and withdrawal elicited a loud moan from Li Yuanzhi, and her soft breasts rippled with each impact, a sight that dazzled onlookers!

He didn't know how long he'd been inserting it, but then Li Yuanzhi let out a gasp, her body trembling uncontrollably as a surge of fluid welled up inside her, scalding Fukang'an with a comfortable moan. After soaking his penis in her vagina for a while, Fukang'an withdrew it, embracing Li Yuanzhi and kissing her forehead, saying, "Zhi-mei, you're so good."

Li Yuanzhi hadn't yet recovered from her orgasm and only hummed in response. Seeing her exhausted face, Fukang'an felt sorry for her! He held her in his arms, and after a long while, when he heard her let out a long breath, he asked, "Zhi-mei, your martial arts are better than mine. How come you're so weak?"

Li Yuanzhi blushed and said, "How would I know?"

Fukang'an thought for a moment and said, "It must be because you haven't practiced enough. We can play more often in the future, and you won't be so fragile."

Li Yuanzhi's shame deepened, and she punched Fukang'an's chest with her small fists.

Fukang'an grabbed her small fist and asked, "Zhi-mei, I want more!"

Li Yuanzhi hummed in agreement. Fukang'an rolled over and pressed down on Li Yuanzhi, his penis finding the entrance and thrusting in forcefully. Li Yuanzhi was caught off guard, her clitoris was hit hard again, and she couldn't help but moan comfortably. Fukang'an moved with pleasure, and this time Li Yuanzhi lasted longer than before. Seeing her twisting her waist and hips, moaning intermittently, without any sign of orgasm, Fukang'an pulled out his penis and said, "Zhi-mei, let's change positions!"

Li Yuanzhi lay there, having only ever been in the traditional woman-on-bottom, man-on-top position with Yu Yu in bed before, how could she know there were other positions! Staring blankly at Fukang'an, Li Yuanzhi was at a loss for what to do. Fukang'an had no choice but to position her in a doggy-style position. Remembering what she had seen dogs mating before, Li Yuanzhi was filled with shame and struggled, saying, "No, it's so embarrassing!"

Fukang'an chuckled and patted her large buttocks, saying, "It's a matter of marital relations, what's there to be ashamed of? Get into position, I'm going to penetrate you."

Li Yuanzhi felt a slight pain spread from her buttocks throughout her body. This kneeling position further exposed her anus and genitals to Fukang'an. Fukang'an's hands rubbed, patted, and kissed her round, plump buttocks. An unprecedented shame suddenly overwhelmed him. Fukang'an's hands roamed over her body, his lower body thrusting back and forth without pause...

until they both reached climax simultaneously. Fukang'an turned Li Yuanzhi over, seeing her face still flushed, covered in fragrant sweat, with a few strands of hair sticking to her face. He gently brushed them aside and kissed her cheek. Fukang'an asked with a smile, "Zhi-mei, you're usually so lively and outgoing. Why are you so reserved in bed?"

Li Yuanzhi rolled her eyes at him and said, "You've spent countless years cultivating yourself to be like this. And you expect everyone else to be like you? That's really unreasonable."

Fukang'an said, "You're mistaken. You've only ever been my first woman."

"Go to hell! With your talent and status, do you think no one would like you?"

Li Yuanzhi said.

"Since I grew up, countless women have flirted with me, but I only like women who are as beautiful as angels and gentle and virtuous. So I can only disappoint them,"

Fukang'an said. Li Yuanzhi giggled and said, "I'm not exactly beautiful. And I'm far from gentle and virtuous. How could you possibly like me?"

Fukang'an replied, "You deserve a beating. How dare you belittle yourself! I, Fukang'an, am a first-rate man in the world. Those I admire should be unique in heaven, hard to find on earth. Otherwise, how could you be worthy of me?"

Li Yuanzhi laughed happily, "I don't know if you're praising me or flattering yourself."

Fukang'an said, "Both. But mostly flattering you."

Li Yuanzhi said, "You're always spouting sweet words; I don't know if you're sincere or just being coy." "Is this what you mean?"

Fukang'an said. "I don't know why I've become so talkative since meeting you. Do men become smarter when they meet beautiful women?"

Li Yuanzhi giggled, her breasts jiggling. Fukang'an's eyes lit up; he grabbed one in each hand, cradling them in his palms, examining them closely. Li Yuanzhi's smile faded, her delicate hands stroking Fukang'an's head. Fukang'an, his hands kneading her breasts, praised, "Sister Zhi, your breasts are as beautiful as you."

Li Yuanzhi closed her beautiful eyes, letting Fukang'an play with them, a blissful and captivating smile playing on her lips…
