My Lord, the princess doesn't want you anymore.

Shortly after entering Yunzhou, the 300,000-strong army led by Cui Hongjing continued to move left towards Changguo.

He had already received a letter from the capital via carrier pigeon, saying that Concubine Wan had been taken away from the capital, but she refused to leave, saying that she wanted to see Prince Jing no matter what before considering returning to Changguo.

Cui Hongjing had no choice but to let Zhuang Xiang make arrangements. After setting up camp at dark, he would quietly leave the barracks alone to see her.

He knew Concubine Wan's personality very well. If she was forced to do something she didn't want to do, she would never do it even if she died.

As for the fact that Li Mo met Cui Hongxiao in the palace as mentioned in the letter, he was not surprised. His father would definitely suspect Lao Wu, and he felt a little guilty for bringing this trouble to Lao Wu.

After all, although Lao Wu was not close to him, he had never harmed him, and he was the god of war of the Zhen Kingdom. Cui Hongjing had a natural admiration for soldiers. He always believed that such people were the treasure of a country, and could not be compared with those courtiers who only knew how to play power games.

Besides, Cui Hongxiao is Mei Xueer’s brother-in-law.

"Xiang, tell the people in the capital to keep an eye out for this. If there's anything they can do to help, try to help."

Another piece of news is that the eunuch Fu who served the late emperor in the dungeon of the Ministry of War has been replaced and will soon be escorted to meet him. It will take two days at most. After meeting Eunuch Fu, everything will be clear about what happened before the death of the Emperor's grandfather.

The person who replaced Eunuch Fu in prison was an expert in disguise and looked somewhat similar to Eunuch Fu. Cui Hongjing was sure that the emperor would not notice anything in the short term.

Most importantly, he had absolute faith in the man's loyalty. For this replacement, the man even wielded a knife, transformed himself into a eunuch, and sneaked into the prison disguised as a prison guard delivering food to prisoners, and replaced Eunuch Fu.

On the first night of the expedition, Cui Hongjing pretended to make some trouble in the Dali Temple's prison and then returned home. However, this attracted the suspicious Cui Qimo to go to the Ministry of War's dungeon in person. The news soon reached Cui Hongjing's ears, and he knew that the place where Eunuch Fu was imprisoned was in the Ministry of War.

He already had his people in the Ministry of War, but just in case, he arranged two operations to rescue Concubine Wan and Eunuch Fu at the same time that night. However, the operation in the dungeon of the Ministry of War was silent.

The sky was darkened by the night, and the lights in the military camp went out one after another. A black figure rushed out from the commander's tent, dodged the patrolling soldiers, and ran straight towards the Damang Mountain behind him.

When it was almost dawn, Cui Hongjing, covered in dew, returned to the military camp unnoticed.

"How was it? Nothing happened last night, right?" he asked Zhuang Xiang while changing clothes.

"No, I just came to see you, General."

"Did something happen?"

Zhuang Xiang shook his head: "I said you caught a cold and went to bed early. He looked outside and then left - Your Majesty, is everything settled?"

Cui Hongjing nodded. "Although Aunt Wan is paranoid, fortunately she is willing to listen to me. I explained the current situation to her, and she agreed to follow Emperor Chang's people back to Chang."

"The Emperor must have guessed that she was going back to her motherland, and he might have sent someone to chase her. She would probably be questioned at the border."

"That's for sure, but we have our people accompanying them as guards. Moreover, I asked them to dress up as spies in the army. The two countries are about to go to war, and no matter how arrogant the border guards are, they dare not delay military operations. In addition, Aunt Wan said that she was knocked unconscious by Li Mo and carried out of the palace. There was a very important thing that she didn't take away. You should have someone quietly go into the palace to get it out."

"What?"

"It's wrapped in a brocade handkerchief and a broken jade comb! It's in the box on the dressing table."

Cui Hongjing had just laid down when Zhuang Xiang rushed into the tent again, "Your Majesty, Eunuch Fu has been settled."

He got up immediately with a start. He put on his boots and said, "I will go there before dawn. I should be able to return in time when the army sets out."

"My Lord, you have been running around all night."

"It doesn't matter. I can't wait to see Grandpa Fu..." Before he finished speaking, the man disappeared, leaving only the curtain in front of the tent, fluttering slightly...

***

It was dawn. Mei Xueer got up, rubbed her eyes, washed up, and yawned.

She hadn't been sleeping well these days. She woke up at dawn and stared at the little turtle in her hand, thinking that it was all because of this beast.

This beast "Dog Prince" carries the aura of Prince Jing's Mansion.

Then, she threw the "Dog Prince" out through the window.

Then, she heard Wen Bing’s voice outside the window, “Oh my god!”

Then, another voice came: "Bingzi, why is it always you who gets hurt?"

Then, then, then, she leaned against the window feeling a little guilty and saw Nanxing carefully applying medicine to Wen Bing's head.

Wen Bing didn't seem to be in much pain, his face was smiling like a monkey's butt.

She stuck out her tongue and went back to sleep.

Sure enough, without the "Dog Prince" around, I slept so soundly this time that I woke up only when the sun was already high in the sky.

I was woken up by Goudan’s singing.

[The birds on the trees are in pairs, the green mountains and rivers are smiling, I pick a flower and wear it in my hair. From now on, I will no longer suffer from slavery, and we will return home together as husband and wife...]

Cui Hongjing inexplicably contributed her 30 points!

"Nanxing--" Mei Xueer finished washing up, opened the door and shouted.

Nanxing ran over without hesitation, leaving Wen Bing, who was covering his head and crying in pain.

Mei Xueer looked over and asked in surprise, "Bingzi, what's wrong with your head?"

Wen Bing pursed his lips and thought, it was you who hit it with the "Dog Prince", and you are asking hypocritically.

He turned his head and ignored Mei Xueer, and they both squatted in the corner and rubbed their foreheads.

Nanxing was the best. When she saw the bump on his head, she came over to ask about his health. She also ignored all the secular differences between men and women and came so close to him to apply medicine.

She was so close to him! He lowered his head and let her touch his easily injured forehead, so that when he raised his eyes, he saw Nanxing's breasts swaying in front of him.

It's a little small, but it's better than nothing.

At that moment, she no longer blamed the princess, and even wished that the princess would hit him with the word "Dog Prince" ten times every day.

But good times are always short-lived. As soon as the princess shouted, Nanxing left him and ran away.

My forehead started to hurt again.

"What's wrong? What's wrong with him?" Mei Xueer continued to ask shamelessly, "Why is there a bump on his head again?"

Nanxing quickly winked at her.

She followed Nanxing's line of sight and saw the "Dog Prince" on the ground crawling unsteadily into the house.

"Oh! Lord Dog——" Mei Xue'er slapped her thigh suddenly, "So you are here, I was looking for you everywhere. I thought you were sleeping peacefully on the windowsill, how come you fell down..."

Nanxing held his forehead with his hand.

Wen Bing opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but finally he held back.

If you can't afford to offend me, I'll just walk away.

Nanxing quickly changed the subject, "Miss, what do you want from me?"

Mei Xueer suppressed her laughter and asked, "Is Wen Wu not back yet?

"No, it's been two days. No matter if there is any news or not, you should come back and tell me. Could something have happened?"
