Inside General Yin's Mansion

Song Lin stood guard outside the door and looked at Aunt Guan who came to deliver the meal again. She just shook her head helplessly. Aunt Guan didn't stop when she saw this. She sighed and left.

A dark shadow landed on the wall. Song Lin walked towards the wall. The shadow whispered a few words in Song Lin's ear and then disappeared into the night.

Song Lin slowly opened the door to the hall, and the room was completely invaded by darkness. Yin Qu did not sit on the main seat, but sat on the ground, leaning against the corner of the table, his eyes stagnant, and he lowered his head in silence.

Song Lin opened his mouth to report the news about Jingwei.

"Prince Haisheng's motorcade did not go directly to the capital of Haisheng, but stopped at Lingfu in Zhicheng. Soon after, the entire city of Zhicheng was under martial law. People entering and leaving Zhicheng must be strictly checked, and it is not easy for Jingwei to enter.

, but found that the security around Lingcheng was tighter. Not only were there several surging troops patrolling back and forth inside the mansion, but there were also many surging troops stationed at various exits outside the mansion. Jingwei did not find a way to enter, but only saw people dressed as medical officers entering Lingfu.

"

Yin Qu frowned, as if he was suddenly injected with spiritual consciousness.

"Medical officer?"

Song Lin nodded and affirmed, "General, don't worry, Jingwei will find another way to enter the house."

A smile barely appeared on Yin Qu's lips, with an unspeakable bitterness and a hint of mocking coldness.

"He Lingjun is so nervous because he is afraid that I will take Wu Chi back..."

Yin Qu lowered his head and rubbed the center of his eyebrows with his fingertips, then moved his head left and right to loosen the stiff bones after sitting for a long time. The bright moon fell into Yin Qu's deep eyes, adding a lot of coldness.

"Prepare meals and invite the fifth prince to the general's residence early tomorrow morning."

Seeing that Yin Qu had finally cheered up, Song Lin felt extremely happy and hurriedly went out to ask the nanny to heat up the meal and bring it over.

It's not yet bright, the east is gradually getting a little whiter, the dark sky is gradually fading, and the early morning mist is gathering in the world bit by bit.

The fog in Xiao Yushi's Mansion shrouded Xiao Heng's eyes.

The young man mustered up the courage to knock on the door of Xiao Heng's dormitory. The floor was in a mess and nothing was intact. Xiao Heng, who was sitting next to the bed, was still full of anger that had not subsided all night, and was gloomy and terrifying.

The boy walked on tiptoes, fearing that the sound of his footsteps would annoy Xiao Heng, he whispered

"Sir, someone is coming from the palace. His Majesty has issued an order. It's time to go out and receive the order."

Xiao Heng exhaled, tried his best to suppress his anger, stood up and walked out.

"It's up to heaven, the emperor decreed.

Xiao Heng, of the Xiao family, has both ability and political integrity, good conduct, and has worked hard to help me solve my problems. I am now conferring the title of Prime Minister Zuo at my discretion. I hope you will take over the mission and assist in the government.

"I admire this"

The father-in-law who delivered the decree spoke in a high-pitched voice and illuminated the bright yellow cloth. After finishing, he smiled shyly.

"Prime Minister Xiao, congratulations! Now you are standing on the same level as Prime Minister Liang, but you are a powerful person above all others."

Xiao Heng had a cold face and couldn't bring out a smile. He just silently took the cloth and lowered his eyes to see that the bright yellow reflected the warm sun that had just risen, wild and wanton.

Everyone was congratulating Xiao Heng. Only Xiao Heng truly understood what this meant. It was just a ridiculous seal to appease himself and take away his fiancée. It was extremely ridiculous!

When the father-in-law who delivered the decree stayed deep in the palace and saw that Xiao Heng didn't respond for a long time, he naturally understood something, so he didn't ask for trouble and returned to the palace to resume his life.

Xiao Heng pursed his lips tightly, his eyes filled with a deep chill.

Facing the slowly rising yellow sun, I said lightly

"Your Majesty, accept the order."

After one night, Wu Chi seemed to be able to correctly feel his own body temperature and the coolness of the morning. The fire in his heart seemed to have gone out, but his whole body was still a little weak.

Wu Chi couldn't remember exactly how he fell asleep, how long he slept, and where he fell asleep. He only remembered that this was the worst sleep he had ever had since he was born.

Wu Chi slowly opened his eyes, and what caught his eyes was not the light purple gauze curtains of Yaxun Hall, but the long pure white chiffon cloth draped across the bed beam. Chihua didn't arrange the bed like this, so he was so confused.

Sitting up, Wu Chi borrowed the early morning sunlight to look at the room. The layout in the room was very unfamiliar. Wu Chi's green feather-like eyebrows knitted together. He got out of bed uneasily, crossed his bare feet over his shoes, and walked straight to the door.

The coldness of the floor stimulated Wu Chi's brain, and he suddenly remembered something from yesterday. There was a scene in the main hall and ancestral hall. There were...many candlelights. Suddenly the candlelight began to shake and blur, and he lost strength and fell. Finally he saw Yanhuang's

The face...seems sad

There is also a scene on a carriage. I am lying on the carriage because I can see the swaying wooden roof of the carriage and hear some sounds. One is the sound of catkins and the other is a male voice. It sounds very nice and familiar, but

I had a splitting headache and couldn't remember who it was...

Wu Chi thought about it but couldn't figure out why he was riding in a carriage and what was going on in this strange room.

Wu Chi's face turned pale, he bit his lips involuntarily, his heart was pounding, and he opened the door to the room tremblingly.

When I saw the scene outside, I stopped breathing for a moment.

The early morning sun shines on the exquisite marble floor. Some maid-like people wearing strange floral shirts are spraying water and cleaning. I have never seen such a garden style arrangement. When the room opens, you can see the garden. In the middle of the garden is a small

Thin rockery and stones are surrounded by a circle of water features to line the rockery. The four sides of the yard are also well-manicured green trees and grass, with little flowers sprinkled among them. The materials for the rest tables and chairs are all of the highest quality, giving a strong feeling of luxury.

.

When the maids of Sashu saw Wu Chi, they immediately put down their tools and performed a salute towards Wu Chi that Wu Chi had never seen before.

"Slave, please say hello to the Crown Princess"

Wu Chi's stagnant breath was exhaled with surprise, and he just shook his head vigorously, denying this title and denying this place. Only Hai Sheng could achieve such luxury among the Three Kingdoms.

Wu Chi's eyes were panicked and he asked helplessly.

"Why do you call me Crown Princess? I am not your Crown Princess! Where am I? Where am I?"

Liu Xu followed He Lingjun. When he saw this scene, he immediately ran forward and comforted Wu Chi. Wu Chi saw Liu Xu's eyes as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.

"Liu Catkin, where are we?"

Liuxu didn't answer, but looked at Wuchi with distress

"Princess, please go inside first, it's cold outside"

Wu Chi noticed He Lingjun behind Liu Xu, his eyes flickered and he met He Lingjun's gentle eyes.

I realized something in an instant, why I was in Haisheng, why those people called me Crown Princess...

Wu Chi pulled Liuxu behind him, his chest rising and falling, his eyes were reddish with tears, but they never fell.

"Your Highness, it's time for an explanation."

He Lingjun contained Wu Chi's anger and temper and just smiled lightly

"Whatever the princess sees and hears is the truth."

Wu Chi's eyes flashed coldly, and the corners of his lips had a pale color.

"I want to know the reason"

He Lingjun's eyes were still soft, trying to swallow up the cold light in Wu Chi's eyes

"The Emperor Yan used his princess in exchange for the help of Haisheng's surging army to defeat Tianyu."

Wu Chi kept breathing, as if his chest was pressed by a big stone. Although he knew that Yanhuang had always had a bad attitude towards Tianyu, he didn't know that Yanhuang's obsession with Tianyu had reached such an extent. Ming Ming back then

The river war and the bandit rebellion all have hidden agendas. If they are really for

It would be a big mistake to attack Tianyu because of all this. Now Yanhuang has finally sunk everything and given himself to Haisheng in exchange for victory in this war. This war will involve many sacrifices. The most obvious one is

He was the first person Chihua gave up and sacrificed.

He Lingjun glanced at the white feet that had fallen on the bluestone ground in the fog, and there was a bit of coldness in his eyes.

"Liuxu, please help the princess in first."

Liuxu took Wu Chi's arm and used a slight force to lead Wu Chi into the house. Wu Chi was placed on the bed blankly like a puppet whose soul had been sucked out.

Liu Xin covered Wu Chi with a quilt and tucked the corners of the quilt, and He Lingjun sat on the edge of the bed with the medicine and handed it to Wu Chi.

Wu Chi raised his eyes and glanced at the steaming medicine, filled with endless chills.

"Take it away."

He Lingjun smiled, raised his hand, picked up the spoon, and stirred along the wall of the bowl.

"Now that you've come, make peace with it. Princess, you should consider the overall situation. You are now the Crown Princess Haisheng."

Wu Chi's heart tightened, and his head was filled with all kinds of chaotic thoughts. He could never stay in Haisheng, his home was in Chihua, he could never marry He Lingjun, the one he wanted to marry was Yin Qu!

"I want to go home!"

Wu Chi's hard tone suddenly impacted He Lingjun, and He Lingjun's action of stirring the medicine stagnated, then resumed immediately.

"This is your home"

Wu Chi pursed his lips and shook his head, "My home is Chihua."

He Lingjun raised his eyebrows. There was no anger at all, but gentleness between his brows.

"I didn't eat anything yesterday. Eat something later and I'll ask the medical officer to check on you."

Wu Chi's tone began to sound angry, and he said stubbornly
