Zhuo Jun didn’t expect Xiao Hanzheng to express his displeasure directly just because of his words.
He felt so uncomfortable that his eyes reddened.
Fang Zhijun walked over and said, “You didn’t do it on purpose. In the future, don’t say anything bad about his wife in front of Jinyu.”
Zhuo Jun took a deep breath. He wanted to lose his temper, but he held it in. “I drank too much today, so I didn’t pay attention to what I said. I’ll pay attention in the future.”
He then said worriedly, “It’s just that I don’t know if Jinyu will blame me in the future and really won’t interact with me anymore.”
Fang Zhijun smiled and comforted him. “Jinyu is big-hearted. As long as you don’t comment on his wife again, he shouldn’t mind.
Zhuo Jun forced out a smile. “Yea, then I’ll take my leave first.”
Fang Zhijun said, “Alright. Let’s meet again after the court examinations.”
Zhuo Jun nodded and left with his servant boys.
After Xiao Hanzheng returned to the capital, he went to the Southern marquis manor to fetch Shi Qingluo back.
Although he was looking for an excuse previously, he was indeed fetching her.
Sitting in the carriage, Shi Qingluo poured a cup of hot water for Xiao Hanzheng.
“I smelt alcohol. How much did you drink?”
Xiao Hanzheng took a few sips and immediately felt his entire body warm up.
He said, “Previously, the servant girl accidentally spilled the wine on my clothes, which is why the smell of the wine is so strong.”
After saying that, he saw his little wife looking at him as if she was watching a show.
Shi Qingluo smiled and said, “Could it be that the servant girl intentionally told you to go to some side room to change clothes, and then a beautiful woman appeared?”
He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as he tapped her forehead. “What are you thinking about?
“That servant girl really didn’t do it on purpose. She accidentally stepped on a tree branch and tripped.
“She didn’t change her clothes either. Instead, she went to the side room to wipe her clothes and used the hand stove to dry them.”
Shi Qingluo raised her eyebrows. “Ah, that’s it?”
Xiao Hanzheng couldn’t help but laugh. “Do you want to watch your husband’s drama too?”
Shi Qingluo chuckled. “Of course.
“But I believe that you will protect your innocence, so it’s not a big deal to watch the show.”
Her husband was skilled in martial arts and medicine.
His brain was also smart and flexible, making it difficult for others to scheme against him in the side room.
Xiao Hanzheng squeezed her hand. “Then I’ll thank you for trusting me.”
He changed the topic and said, “But there was indeed an unexpected gain today.”
Shi Qingluo’s eyes lit up. She looked at him with a gossipy face and asked, “Why? Did Zhuo Jun confess to you? Or did he express something obviously wrong?”
Xiao Hanzheng didn’t know whether to laugh or cry again.
If she were any other woman, she would probably be jealous and make a fuss.
Only his little wife would be like this.
“How could he confess? You’re thinking too much.
“But he often sneaked a glance at me. At that time, both of our clothes were splashed with alcohol.
“In the room, Zhuo Jun intentionally sprained his ankle and almost fell into my arms.”
Shi Qingluo raised her eyebrows again. “Then, do you enjoy the warm and soft jade?”
Xiao Hanzheng pulled her hand and kissed her on the lips. “How could that be? I’ll only hug you my whole life.”
Shi Qingluo curled her lips. “That’s more like it.”
However, her little husband’s desire to survive was quite high.
Of course, he was becoming more and more sweet-mouthed.
“Then he must have taken a liking to you. Could it be that he is really homosexual?”
He already had a fiancée. If he was homosexual, that would be a little too much.
Xiao Hanzheng smiled and said, “He isn’t, but there is indeed a problem.
“Zhuojun deliberately wanted to fall into my arms, so I took the initiative to hold him and also took his pulse.”
Shi Qingluo immediately asked, “Is he unable to cause a woman to be pregnant, or is he disguised as a man?”
If there was a problem from his pulse, then it must be these two problems.
Xiao Hanzheng realized that his little wife was still as smart as ever.
He hugged Shi Qingluo and whispered into her ear, “She disguised as a man.”
Shi Qingluo’s eyes widened. “She’s really a woman?
“Then how did she manage to pass the imperial examinations?”
Xiao Han told her about the examination. “So she took advantage of the fact that she wasn’t searched.”
Shi Qingluo was really surprised.
Previously, she had thought that Zhuo Jun was gay.
She asked, “During the time that you guys have been in contact, no one discovered that she was a woman?”
Xiao Hanzheng shook his head. “They really didn’t notice. After all, who would have thought that she was a woman and that she had the guts to impersonate a man to participate in the enke?
“Furthermore, if we don’t observe carefully, from the way she walks, the way she talks, and the way she carries herself, she doesn’t look like a woman.
“She also looks like she has an Adam’s apple.”
If it wasn’t for his wife’s reminder, he probably wouldn’t have realized that Zhuo Jun was a woman.
She had really concealed it too well.
Shi Qingluo nodded. “That’s true. From the sound of her voice that day, it really didn’t sound like a woman’s voice.
“Since you’ve checked her pulse, then her Adam’s apple must be fake.”
Xiao Hanzheng nodded. “Most likely.”
Shi Qingluo asked again, “Did you notice that something was wrong from the start?”
Otherwise, her young husband probably wouldn’t have taken the opportunity to check her pulse.
Xiao Hanzheng replied, “That’s right. I accidentally smelled the orchid fragrance on her body. Because my younger sister likes it, I believe that men don’t really like it.”
He wouldn’t like to use this kind of fragrance.
“After I found out that something was wrong, I looked at her hands and feet. They were much more delicate than men’s. I had a guess, so I took the opportunity to check her pulse.”
Shi Qingluo thought for a moment and asked, “What did you find out about her family?”
Xiao Hanzheng said, “Her father was once a deputy general, but he died on the battlefield.
“So she was raised by a widowed mother and had a younger brother who was three years younger.
“Her mother opened an embroidery workshop at the northern city. Although she wasn’t very rich, her life wasn’t bad.”
Shi Qingluo asked again, “Then, were there any problematic relatives who picked on them?”
Xiao Hanzheng shook his head. “No, her father’s village was once slaughtered by the Ge people passing by when the two armies were fighting.
“Her father happened to be in the army at that time, so he dodged a bullet.
“According to the news, her father also died because he saw the Ge people who massacred the village and rushed in to fight.
“Her mother’s relatives and friends are okay, and they have a good relationship with each other.”
Shi Qingluo frowned slightly. “If that’s the case, why did their family disguise her as a man?”
Under such circumstances, it was usually because the elders in one’s husband’s family were biased and preferred sons over daughters.
That was why mothers would deliberately disguise their children’s gender.
Or perhaps, there were problematic relatives eyeing them covetously, wanting to get their hands on their family’s property or something.
However, Zhuo Jun’s grandparents had passed away long ago, and there were no problematic relatives who wanted to get their hands on property.
Her biological father had only died in battle a few years after she was born.
It felt strange for her to change her gender in such a secretive manner.
Xiao Hanzheng said, “I also feel that something isn’t quite right.”
Shi Qingluo asked again, “Then, have you ever heard of Zhuo Jun? Her results are so good. If her identity hasn’t been exposed, she should be on the list as well.”
She was naturally referring to her young husband’s past life.
