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

The next day, just as Mei Xueer got up, Nan Xing heard the noise and came into the room. He stared at her for a long time, "Miss, why is your mouth swollen?"

"Get out!"

Nan Xing quickly stuffed a letter into her hands, "I'll leave right away... Master Li is gone, this is from him."

Mei Xueer then remembered that Li Mo had said yesterday that he was going out today. Before she went to sleep, she was still thinking about how to see him off in person. She even thought about every sentence she was going to say and what kind of expressions and actions to accompany each sentence. But now none of them can be used!

She took the letter, which was very thick, and thought: This is good, we don't have to face each other in embarrassment.

So ashamed!

She couldn't wait to open the letter.

There is only one sentence on the first page: I know you will be embarrassed, so I won’t say goodbye to you in person.

Mei Xueer: He understands me quite well, but I still feel sorry that I didn’t see him off in person.

I turned to the second page and it said: Don't feel sorry, because I will be back in a month at most, I promise. If you miss me, just kiss the wolf tooth I gave you.

Mei Xueer: Monster! I don’t know what you are going to do?

Page 3: Although you didn't ask, I know you must want to know what I'm going to do? I just want to finish some things as soon as possible so that I can stand with you without any worries and face everything.

Mei Xueer was stunned: Could it be that he was going to kill Yan Ruobing?

Page 4: Yan Ruobing is my biological father, I will not kill him, but I want to destroy the things he cares about most. This will make me feel more satisfied than killing him. Besides, I have other things to do.

Mei Xueer was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: I don’t want to think about anything this time, let me see how you can figure out my thoughts.

Page 5: Xueer, I'll stop writing here. You're on my mind. If I write any more, I won't be able to fall asleep tonight. I swear, I won't think of you tonight.

Somehow, Mei Xueer's eyes suddenly turned red.

Only now did she realize that Li Mo understood her better than she had imagined.

It turns out that no matter where others are, he is always by her side.

There were still a few pages left, and she continued reading.

Page 6: No, I can't do it, I'd better keep writing. But at this moment, all I can think about is the beach last night.

Next to it, there was a simple picture drawn, showing two overlapping figures on a reef at the seaside on a moonlit night.

Mei Xueer's eyes turned red and then she smiled, silently saying in her heart: Li Mo, you must come back safe and sound.

Page 7: Don't worry, Xue'er, I will protect myself, because I can't bear to leave you. One month, at most one month, wait for me. You wait for me to come back obediently, and don't go anywhere. You can command everyone in the Duan Mansion as you like, just treat this place as your home. After all, what's mine is yours.

Mei Xueer: Tsk, the Duan Mansion doesn’t belong to you, Valley Master Li. It’s obviously a branch of the Tiegu Gang.

Page 8: The Tiegu Gang's territory is my territory. Please help me take good care of my husband. After all, this is his territory, and I have to curry favor with him. Actually, it's not too much trouble. Hua Lao Er will take good care of him. By the way, there are some secrets about Lord Ye that you don't know yet. Go find him and he will tell you.

Page 9: That's it. It's almost dawn. I still need to sleep for a while. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't have enough energy tomorrow and will use this as an excuse to stay. Some people say that women are the source of trouble. I didn't agree with that before, but now I think differently because you have made me no longer myself. You are my exclusive source of trouble, so you are not allowed to bring trouble to others.

After reading the letter, Mei Xueer cried and laughed for a long time, but her heart was sweet and worried.

Li Mo, I don’t want you to be someone else, I want you to always be yourself.

She never knew that this was what it felt like for two people to love each other.

Both wonderful and heart-wrenching.

It had never been so wonderful when I was with Cui Hongjing before.

Li Mo, you must come back safe and sound.

Because I'm afraid.

You gave me the courage to take a gamble without hesitation, and then I couldn't accept losing anymore.

***

The capital of Zhen Kingdom.

General Cui Hongjing of Pingchang returned to the capital.

The army camped outside the city, and Cui Hongjing and Xiang Zhong only brought a few followers into the city.

As soon as they entered the city, the city gates fell down and the imperial guards came forward and surrounded them.

The commander of the imperial guards, Qian Weimin, stepped forward and kowtowed. "I, your humble servant, am here to welcome Your Majesty and General Xiang back to the capital on His Majesty's orders. Please give me the tiger talisman for mobilizing troops."

Cui Hongjing and Xiang Zhong looked at each other and saw mockery in each other's eyes.

Is Father so impatient? Is he worried that I will force him to abdicate?

Seeing that Cui Hongjing had not responded yet, Qian Weimin kowtowed again, "Please don't embarrass me, Your Majesty."

Cui Hongjing sneered, took out the tiger talisman and handed it to Qian Weimin.

Qian Weimin put away the tiger talisman, stood up, looked at Xiang Zhong meaningfully, his eyes twitched, and waved his hand, "Catch him!"

Immediately, the imperial guards stepped forward and tied up Xiang Zhong.

Qian Weimin: "Xiang Zhong led his army back to the capital, but he changed his route without authorization and returned to Changguo. He was taken to the Heavenly Prison and is awaiting the emperor's judgment!"

Xiang Zhong did not resist. The two had guessed this outcome along the way.

Cui Qimo pointed his sword at Zhong, but it was Cui Hongjing who was frightened.

Cui Hongjing's eyes became even colder. "Commander Qian, please lead the way! I wonder if I am going to the Heavenly Prison or to see the Emperor?"

"I dare not!" Qian Weimin said respectfully, "The emperor is waiting for you in the imperial study."

Cui Hongjing looked at him calmly for a while before he climbed onto his horse.

To get to the palace from here, you have to cross half the city.

Cui Hongjing was riding on his horse, feeling filled with emotion.

When I left, it was still snowing in the capital, and when I returned, it was already summer.

When he left, he was still silently saying in his heart, "Xue'er, wait for me to come back. After the matter is settled, I will definitely welcome you back to the palace with great fanfare." Unexpectedly, when he returned, Xue'er had already left him.

If he had not had to return to Beijing, he would not have tolerated Li Mo taking Mei Xueer away and would have definitely chased after them and fought to the death.

After calming down, he thought about it for many days. In fact, it was good this way. Maybe Li Mo was her best destination.

There is no need to follow me and be frightened, facing all the terrible unknowns.

The capital of Zhenguo was indeed very unfriendly to her.

There are many people here who want her dead.

After all, it is this king who owes her.

On the way passing by Prince Jing's Mansion, his gaze seemed to penetrate the high walls and fall on the osmanthus tree.

Has it sprouted? Or is it completely dead?

Royal study room.

Cui Qimo glared at his son who was kneeling at his feet. After a long while, he said expressionlessly, "Did you plan what happened to Concubine Wan?"

"Your son dare not." Cui Hongjing lay on the ground, bowed his head and said, "Your son just got the news halfway and intercepted the imperial concubine. I thought I could use her to threaten the emperor..."

Before he could finish his words, an inkstone flew through the air and hit him on the forehead, causing blood to flow all over his face.

Cui Hongjing did not reach out to wipe it, nor did he show any emotion. He continued slowly, "It's all my fault that I am incompetent. Facing the Tiger Division of Changguo, I had no chance of winning, so I could only resort to this despicable and shameless strategy. It really damages the reputation of my Great True One."

This made Cui Qimo even more angry. "I really underestimated you before. You are in Changguo, but you can still stir up trouble in the capital of my Dazhen, and even extend your hands to the harem, and even set your sights on my concubine. In addition, you knew that Mei Xueer was a remnant of Nanyue, but you deliberately let her escape." He stood up, walked forward and bowed to Cui Hongjing, "Tell me, what else are you afraid to do, huh?!"

Cui Hongjing: "Father, please understand. What is the harem and the remnants of Nanyue? I am really confused."

Cui Qimo took a deep breath, sneered twice, and said slowly: "Xiang Zhong led 300,000 troops outside, but disobeyed the emperor's order, arbitrarily changed the marching route, and let the remnants of Nanyue go. His crime is the same as colluding with foreign enemies to rebel, and he should be beheaded. At noon three days later, you will supervise the execution!"

Cui Hongjing raised his head, a hint of mockery on his lips, "Whatever the emperor says is true. I will obey your orders."
