The princess returns strongly, and the divorced regent is busy chasing his wife

the other side

The two men rode their horses one after the other, galloping through the darkness.

The journey was surprisingly smooth.

In a moment, the two of them returned safely to Yongcheng.

In the general's mansion, Wang Qi and Leng Ze were still worried about the two people's independent actions.

Then the butler came jogging to report.

"My Lord, Princess. I'm back safely."

"What? Your Majesty, the princess is back."

"Yes," the butler answered affirmatively.

Wang Qi and Leng Ze trotted to the gate of the general's mansion to greet them.

"I, your subordinates, welcome the prince and princess back in triumph."

Ouyang Miaoling was walking in front and had no intention of stopping, with Nangong Mingxuan following closely behind her.

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty...Is it done?"

Wang Qi couldn't hold it in any longer and asked directly.

Nangong Mingxuan, who was stopped by Wang Qi, looked at him unhappily and said, "Look at the two of us, don't we look like we failed?"

"Your Highness means that we have succeeded and we can start planning next?"

"Yes...it succeeded. Let's inform Dongfang and implement the next plan, right?"

"Yes... I will arrange it right away."

After saying that, he walked away excitedly with happy little steps.

"Why don't you leave yet?" Nangong Mingxuan looked at Leng Ze unhappily.

"I will withdraw now."

After saying that, he turned around and chased after Wang Qi.

"General Wang, wait a minute..."

Seeing that all those who were in the way had left, Nangong Mingxuan quickened his pace and went after the princess.

Yongcheng Courtyard

Dongfang paced back and forth anxiously in the study, waiting for news.

Ouyang Miaoling insisted on going alone. Although Nangong Mingxuan followed her, it was not easy to burn the enemy's food and supplies among thousands of troops and return safely.

They had been walking for almost two hours and there was no news. How could he sit still?

Just when Dongfang was feeling upset, a maid's voice came from outside the door.

"master"

"What's the matter?" Dongfang asked impatiently.

"Miss Sifan wants to invite you over?"

"You mean I don't have time?"

"Master, why don't you go and take a look? Miss Sifan hasn't eaten or drunk for two days. I'm afraid that if this continues, it will affect the baby in Miss Sifan's belly."

When Dongfang heard about the child, he felt annoyed, but he still opened the door of the room.

"Go tell her, I'll change my clothes and go."

"Yes.."

When the maid received a satisfactory answer, she bowed and left.

With Lan Yu's help, Dongfang changed into a clean robe and took Lan Yu to the courtyard where Sifan lived.

Walking into the yard and reaching the door of the room, Dongfang hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to push the door open.

"I heard from the maid that you were looking for me," Dongfang said unhappily as he entered the room.

"Yes..." the woman on the bed said weakly.

"looking for me?"

Sifan on the bed struggled to sit up with difficulty. Dongfang looked at the clumsy movements of the woman on the bed and had no intention of going forward to help her. Instead, he looked at Sifan with disgust.

Sifan finally climbed up and sat up, trying to adjust to the most comfortable sitting position.

Then he said, "Brother Dongfang, I know that you look down on me, despise me, and hate me in your heart. If I wasn't pregnant, you probably wouldn't even come to see me even if the sky broke."

Sifan finished speaking with difficulty. The man standing upright on the side did not reply, but avoided Sifan's gaze deliberately and remained silent. Silence must mean consent.

"Brother Dongfang....you hate me so much now, why don't you let me go?"

Sifan finally asked the question in his mind with difficulty.

"You're asking even though you already know the answer..." Dongfang glanced viciously at the woman on the bed and then turned his head away. Even looking at her any longer would make him feel sick.

"Brother Dongfang... I know you are avenging me for the sake of the master. Now I know I am wrong. I shouldn't betray the master. If I hadn't lost my mind because of jealousy and done something wrong, maybe I wouldn't end up like this."

"The master will definitely arrange my future life for me. I regret it now. I regret that I shouldn't have lost my mind and betrayed the master and hurt him like that."

After Sifan finished speaking, he shed tears of regret.

Dongfang, who was standing aside, was not moved at all after hearing Sifan's confession.

Sifan cried and confessed all her sins. Finally, she dragged her body off the bed, crawled to Dongfang's feet, pulled Dongfang's robe, and kept admitting her mistakes and apologizing.

Sifan's sudden behavior today also scared the usually calm Dongfang.

"You don't have to do this. I will never forgive you for what you did to Ling'er. Just stay here and take care of your baby. Don't make any trouble. When the baby is born, I will send you off myself."

Dongfang still resolutely said the most heartless words.

"Even if I'm like this now, even if I'm living a life worse than death, you're not going to give me a way out?"

Sifan knew that Dongfang had a heart of stone, so she stopped pretending to be weak and trying to gain sympathy. She regained her normal sanity and started to reason with Dongfang.

"Yes...Your crime is unforgivable,"

"Brother Dongfang...Sifan only likes you and loves you, so he does some irrational things. I don't know what's so rebellious about my liking you that makes you hate me so much."

Dongfang heard that Sifan wanted to use the name of love to morally blackmail him, so he got angry.

I can no longer hold back the anger in my heart.

"You think you love me like this, but you don't know that your so-called bullshit love has ruined me."

"You think you like me because of this, but how come you don't know that I also have someone I like."

"You thought you could get me if you got pregnant, but you don't know how much I hate you for doing this."

"Every time I see you and think of the baby in your belly, it reminds me of the unforgivable sin I committed at that time."

"Just because you love me, you can destroy my love and my qualification to love."

"Do you know how much pain I felt when I saw Ling'er's distant eyes towards me?"

"My heart aches as much as I hate you. I wish I could cut you into pieces or dismember you."

"You should be thankful that you have a baby in your belly. It helps me stay sober and not do anything outrageous."

Dongfang angrily vented out all the emotions that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time.

After hearing this, Sifan, who was lying on the ground, instantly collapsed to the ground, with all the hope in his heart completely shattered.

She originally wanted to play the victim, admit her mistakes, and ask Dongfang to let her go for the sake of the child. But now it seems impossible.

Dongfang could say these words, and it could be heard how much he despised and hated her in his heart.

Sifan also closed his eyes in complete despair, tears from the corners of his eyes continuously flowing down his cheeks.

It seems that my life has really entered the countdown.

After a long while, Sifan spoke again: "Brother Dongfang...I know that I am an unforgivable sinner in your heart. For the sake of the child, please agree to one of my requests. I would rather die after giving birth to the child. I just want you to treat the child well in the future."

Dongfang glared at the woman in front of him and said through gritted teeth: "He will only be able to live a humble life like you did when you were alive."
