At this time, Baili Moqing's cough sounded again, calming everyone in the field a little.

"Aunt, you're too kind. Zhenli is only here to relieve the guard in Beisha City. The reinforcements are already thirty miles east of the city. He learned that my nephew is here, so he came to express his gratitude for your kindness."

Baili Moqing leaned his head against the back of the wheelchair, a wry smile and self-mockery on his face. "Aunt, do you think I can still have any ambitions in my current state?"

Has the army coming to aid the north arrived outside the city of Beisha?

Zhaoming also calmed down at this time. Although she had doubts about Baili Moqing's health, she couldn't help but believe the imperial physician's words. After all, he was sent by the emperor himself, not her man.

She waved her hand lightly, and the guards with swords immediately left the hall.

Uncle Zhang and Aunt Wang in the kitchen looked at the yard nervously, fearing that Baili Moqing would be hurt.

Perhaps frightened by the solemn-looking guards, Yier's face showed panic and fear. She ran out of the kitchen and went straight to the front hall of the inner room.

"Uncle Mo!"

"Yier!"

"Xiao Yi'er!"

Uncle Zhang ran out and wanted to grab Yi'er, but the guard with a sword in the yard put the knife to his neck and stopped him from going forward.

Xiao Yier was also picked up by a guard after running a few steps.

"Ah! Let me go, Uncle Mo, Uncle Mo..."

The fear completely broke out at this moment, and Yier waved her hands and burst into tears.

"Where did this bastard come from? How dare he bump into the Princess's carriage!!"

An angry shout was heard, and Yi'er turned pale with fright.

She kept waving her hands and feet in the man's hands. "Let me go, let me go! Mother!!"

When Baili Moqing heard the sound outside, his face turned pale, and a cold air instantly emanated from his originally weak face.

"Let her go!"

The cold and tough tone made Zhaoming look confused. However, before she could think about it, she saw Baili Moqing coughing violently again.

"Your Highness!" Zhen Li hurriedly supported his shoulders. At this moment, he was really worried that something might happen to Baili Moqing.

Baili Moqing looked at Yi'er in the yard, and Zhenli understood instantly.

A shadow flashed by.

"boom!"

I saw a figure flying backwards, crashing into the courtyard wall next to the hanging flower gate, and spitting blood.

When everyone looked over, the child being carried by the guard had already fallen into Zhenli's arms.

She hugged the masked uncle tightly, her tear-stained face full of fear.

Zhenli was full of powerful aura, and just standing there gave people a strong sense of oppression, making people dare not look directly at him.

"Whoever dares to take action in Biluo Garden again will not be seriously injured, but will die!"

No one can see the true face under the mask, but anyone can hear how stern the face is underneath the mask.

The guard who was holding Zhang Bo with a knife had put down the knife at some point, and even had fear in his eyes, and took several steps back.

Everyone was looking at the man, watching him holding the little girl and walking into the front hall where the eldest princess was. No one dared to move.

When Xiao Yier saw Baili Moqing, she instantly struggled off Zhenli and ran towards Baili Moqing.

"Yier, is anything wrong?" Baili Moqing touched the little girl who climbed into his arms, his face full of worry.

Yi'er shook her head in his arms and timidly glanced at the beautifully dressed woman.

"This aunt is so beautiful."

Suddenly, a girl's crisp voice was heard in the silent hall.

Baili Moqing and Zhao Ming opposite him were both stunned.

"Children speak without restraint. Please don't be offended, aunt." Baili Moqing pulled Xiao Yier closer to him, with a hint of apology on his pale face.

Zhao Ming's eyes flickered slightly, but he was curious about the identity of this child.

"This is your child?"

Princess Zhaoming asked.

But the news she received clearly showed that Baili Moqing was single.

"No, it belongs to my nephew's friend." Baili Moqing replied.

The word "friend" made Zhenli feel surprised.

He never expected that the dignified King Dongli would actually call a woman a "friend"!

"friend?"

"Yes." Baili Moqing said without hesitation, "The doctor who saved my nephew's life, her child."

There is no need to hide this matter, and it cannot be hidden.

"Oh, that woman named He Shu." Zhao Ming relaxed again. "She's also the one who made Nangong Xiyun speechless, right?"

Baili Moqing looked up at her, a hint of surprise on his face, "Aunt, are you trying to plead for Nangong Xiyun?"

Zhao Ming shook his head. "This is your family's business, I won't interfere. I just happened to meet her before, so I asked for her. Since you have your own plan, I won't say anything more."

"Just don't blame Auntie for being so nosy. After all, you've been stripped of your title, and because of such a sensitive crime, it's best to limit your contact with the generals in the court in the future. This will prevent further rumors from spreading."

Baili Moqing's face was as pale as water, and he said calmly, "Aunt, I have never admitted that I have done such a thing."

Princess Zhaoming's eyes changed slightly, a hint of disappointment appearing on her face. "I thought you would realize your mistakes during these years of exile. But I didn't expect that until now, you still refuse to admit your sins."

"aunt!"

Baili Moqing called her indifferently.

"No matter who you came here to test me for today, I still say the same thing." Baili Moqing looked up at her, his eyes weak but firm, "I didn't do it."

Zhao Ming's expression changed slightly, and a hint of sarcasm appeared on his face, "Do you think I came here for Baili Moyan?"

In fact, it was someone else who asked her to come.

That person also wants to know, after all these years, has he realized his mistakes?

If he was willing to admit his mistake, he could still go back to Kyoto and be a carefree seventh prince.

But from now on, it seemed that person was also going to be disappointed, because she did not see any remorse in Baili Moqing.

"I said, no matter who it is." Baili Moqing said.

No matter if it was Baili Moyan or the number one person in the world, his answer would never change.

No one can force him to admit something he has not done.

Zhaoming understood what he meant.

She was slightly surprised.

Since he knew her purpose, why did he insist on staying here? Didn't he want to go back? Or was he still obsessed with that position, even if he lost his life?

The disappointment in her eyes was not hidden at all. "Mo Qing, when a person dies, nothing exists anymore. Why are you still so persistent?"

Baili Moqing couldn't help but sneer. This time, he didn't hide himself. "Aunt, are you really looking forward to your nephew's death?"

Zhaoming was stunned.

She looked at Baili Moqing in front of her and thought of his childhood.

When he was very young, he loved to cling to her and always said, "Auntie, Auntie, can you take me out of the palace to play?"

Later, when she grew up a little and got married, she would often receive letters from him asking how she was doing.

After that, she never received any more letters from him. When she returned to Apocalypse, the child had become the God of War of Apocalypse, full of murderous aura and evil spirit, making it impossible for people to get close to him.

Now, he is terminally ill, but his aggressive aura has not diminished in the slightest.

Is he really going to die?
