He was secretly happy. Meimei had always had a good impression of Chenze, and he didn't want Meimei to have too much contact with him.
"You go in, I'll wait for you outside!"
When he came outside the west wing and looked at the two shadows not far from each other on the window, Mei Mei suddenly felt relieved. He didn't refuse Xiao Ju's help, right? As long as he didn't refuse, that would be fine, as long as he didn't dislike Xiao Ju.
, Xiaoju has hope.
"Yifeng, do you think I should go in?"
She raised her head, with a hint of confusion on her beautiful face. The shadows of the two of them looked very close. Should she go in now? Would it be inappropriate to go in?
"Come in, otherwise, you won't be able to sleep even when you go back!"
He scratched Meimei's nose lovingly and stuck out her tongue. What he said was actually quite good: Yes, how could she sleep peacefully if she didn't go and take a look?
The creak of the door opened, destroying the peace in the room. The two looked at Meimei in surprise. Chenze's face was dark and unhappy.
"Chenze, are you okay?"
Meimei smiled awkwardly, Xiaoju stood up with a blushing face, walked to Meimei's side, and wanted to help Meimei sit down.
"No, Xiaoju, please help Chenze apply medicine quickly, otherwise, it will be very painful tomorrow!"
The faint voice was still as gentle as before. Chenze looked straight at Meimei for a long time. That look made Meimei feel very uneasy.
"Meimei, have you ever regretted it?"
There was a cold voice, with a little pain, Chenze's eyes turned slightly red, Meimei raised her head and looked directly at him, and sighed:
"Never!"
"But, he didn't protect you well, and he didn't even tell you about his background!"
The voice was still cold, the eyes were still sharp, Mei Mei raised her head uneasily, a trace of calmness flashed in her eyes:
"That thing is my fault! Besides, everyone has their own secrets. I don't want to force it or ask about it. As long as he really cares about me and loves me, that's enough!"
"Meimei, what if he already has a wife and children at home?"
The voice was no longer as calm as before. Chenze looked at Meimei a little excitedly. Meimei's body staggered. Chenze would not make things out of thin air. What he said must have some basis. Thinking of the voice that night,
Meimei's heart ached.
"Meimei, I swear, you are my only wife, and this child is my only little one!"
The door was pushed open with a bang, and Yifeng ran in with an anxious look, grabbed Meimei's hand, and said nervously.
"Really? Then do you dare to take Meimei home?"
There was a trace of ridicule on Chenze's face. Yifeng's face darkened, he hugged Meimei tightly and looked at Chenze angrily.
Does he have to have trouble with him today? Maybe he just knows something?
"Of course I dare. It's just that Meimei's current physical condition is not suitable for the hard work of traveling. When the child is born, I will take Meimei back!"
Yes, after the child is born, he can confess to Meimei. For the sake of the child and his sincerity, Meimei will definitely forgive him.
"Oh, really? It's not like Meimei can't..."
"Chenze, let's apply the medicine first! I'm tired too. Let's talk tomorrow, okay?"
There seemed to be something wrong between the two of them today. Seeing Chen Ze pressuring Yifeng step by step, and what Yifeng said was also very strange. Not wanting to make the two of them more tense, Meimei took Yifeng's hand and ran away.
It seems that he has left. If you love him, you have to believe him. He also has difficulties in not taking her home. As long as the reasons are not because there is a woman in the family, it will be fine.
"Yifeng, what you just said is true?"
The moonlight was still bright, but that uneasy heart became even more uneasy because of Chen Ze's words just now.
"Meimei, I promise you, you are my only wife!"
Stretching out his hand and facing the moon, Yifeng swore seriously:
"If what I, Yifeng, say is true, I am willing to suffer a beating from God..."
"don't want!"
She put her delicate hand on his mouth and said with a beautiful smile:
"I trust you!"
Yes, if you love him, you should believe him, but Meimei didn't expect that what she said was always too early, and Yifeng left so quickly.
After Chenze left, Lingxiu returned to Meimei. After confirming that King Hui had really left, Meimei had more freedom to go out. Of course, the prerequisite was that Yifeng should also be with her.
Xiaoyu, Hua, and the coachman also disappeared, which made Meimei even more sure that Hua and the king were in the same group. The disappointment in her heart was no longer, but what she heard in her ears was more about Wanwan.
Warring States.
The Kingdom of Ten Thousand Arms is not very familiar to Meimei, but it is not an absolute stranger either. It turns out that when she was in the palace, she had heard that the place where Xi'er was going to get married seemed to be the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Arms. She just didn't know.
Why did they get married at that time? Since they got married, why did they start a war with this side so quickly? Thinking about it, Xi'er's life is really miserable. Everyone over there is at war with us. Her life there should be the same.
Not much better.
Thinking of how Xi'er framed him that time, he no longer felt anything in his heart. However, when he heard their whispers, his heart still fluctuated slightly.
"Hey, it would be great if King Yun goes. When the Western Kingdom invaded our frontier, King Yun went out to recover it. How majestic it was. But now, these 300,000 soldiers from a country with ten thousand soldiers are no more than 300,000 soldiers. King Hui will lead them over.
There are more than three hundred thousand, but how come..."
"Yes, I heard that the original garrison lost 60,000 soldiers, but now the king has lost 100,000 soldiers. Hey, it's a pity that so many soldiers' lives have been lost..."
"How can this king of Hui catch up with King Yun? If you can't fight, don't ask for help. Let King Yun go over and ensure that you can regain the lost territory. At the same time, you can seize the palace of their Ten Thousand Soldiers Kingdom for fun..."
"Don't you know yet? King Yun was sent on a special execution mission by the emperor. It is said that he is not in the capital at all now..."
Unexpectedly, the people of Feng Kingdom are also very patriotic. Looking at the small and large groups of people, one can hear the comments praising King Yun everywhere, and Mei Mei’s heart can’t tell what kind of emotion it is. It’s him.
My ex-husband, he was not a good husband, but he was a very good prince and the pride of the entire Maple Kingdom.
"Yifeng..."
He raised his head and saw that Yifeng's face was indifferent, and his eyes were full of sadness. After holding his hand and shaking it, Yifeng came back to his senses and asked:
"What's wrong, Meimei?"
"It's okay, Yifeng, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Standing on tiptoes, she put her hands on his face. It was very cold. Meimei tried her forehead, but it was warm and hot. She asked uneasily:
"Yifeng, are you sick?"
"No, it's the King of Hui, how could you..."
Closing his eyes in pain, he suddenly remembered that his current identity was not King Yun, but Yifeng, a Yifeng who had nothing to do with the royal family.
"King Hui, isn't he very powerful? But when we get to the border, why are we defeated as soon as we come up? One hundred thousand people, that's not a small number."
With a cold look on her face, Meimei didn't care at all. She just thought that Yifeng also hated Hui Wang for his incompetence and felt pity for the 100,000 soldiers who should not have been sacrificed.
"Yes, if King Yun was leading the army this time, there might be much fewer casualties. But they also said that King Yun might not be in the capital. But I think it's unlikely. He just married his lovely wife. Why?
Maybe he's not in the palace? It must have been the queen's idea to let King Hui go on an expedition, but it would be a pity for the lives of those 100,000 soldiers..."
The country is in trouble, and everyone is worried. Gradually, the streets are no longer as lively as before. Although Meimei rarely goes out, things about the battlefield will continue to reach Meimei's ears.
…………
"Sir, although King Hui has not said that he will come back, there are casualties there every day, and it is difficult to defend Yucheng now. You can't wait any longer, go back to the capital first..."
Yifeng waved his hands, with a hint of pain on his face:
"Hasn't he admitted defeat yet? Yucheng will not fail so easily, and the emperor has not called me back yet. Let's wait and see!"
Meimei is due to give birth in more than two months, and his face will return to its original appearance in more than a month. Wang Hui will be responsible for things over there. He can't go now, and there's nothing he can do about it.
Going. Going would only deepen the conflict with the queen. As for Meimei here, he hasn't figured out how to tactfully confess to her, and he can't just leave like that.
"But sir, Prince Hui is not the leader of the army..."
The subordinate wanted to continue to persuade, but Yifeng shook his head and said angrily:
"Go down first and don't let Madam see you, otherwise..."
He glared at him coldly, and saw a trace of uneasiness flashing in his eyes, and his heart ached. He should protect both the soldiers and the people, but why should he even be involved in this war?
The struggle for imperial power comes at the cost of the lives of so many innocent people?
He understands what they say. As for the capital, there shouldn't be much silence for much longer. When the emperor or mother urges him to leave again, can he really refuse like last time?
King Yun has always been arrogant and unruly. He can ignore Concubine Xuan's orders, ignore the emperor's orders, and be himself freely, but can he ignore the lives of tens of thousands of people?
No, he is a prince, not an ordinary prince who does nothing. If he is really powerless to deal with all this, maybe he can ignore it, but he obviously has the ability to avoid it, so how can he ignore it?
"Yifeng, are you worried?"
From a distance, his figure in the yard looked so sad. Yes, she could clearly feel that he was sad. Unable to bear him to continue to be so sad, Meimei walked over carefully and gently kissed her from behind.
