"We were worried that this secret letter would disturb your mind, but we were worrying too much."

Hearing the bitter smile in his second uncle's words, Liang Chongyue knew that he had taken advantage of the Xiang family and was sorry for the Xiang family, but in life, there are not so many choices.

After reading the handwritten secret letter from her scumbag father, Liang Chongyue no longer had to wait for the system's reply. It seemed that her scumbag father had known that she had come to the border a long time ago. As for the fact that her mother and the women of the Xiang family were confined to the Yikun Palace.

Based on Liang Chongyue's understanding of his scumbag father, this matter is definitely not what it seems.

"Since this matter started with me, I should go back."

Liang Chongyue put the three secret letters away and put them back on the table. Her scumbag father was waiting for her to return with news of her triumph, otherwise he would have sent people to arrest her long ago.

Seeing that her second uncle had nothing to say to her, Liang Chongyue did not force him. She took one last look at Xiang Jingchuan's body and left the tent.

As soon as Liang Chongyue left the tent, he saw Ping An waiting outside:

"My lady, the young general has sent seven or eight little animals to your tent. I'm feeding a ewe. Should we return to the capital soon?"

Ping An's question was incoherent. Liang Chongyue glanced at him sideways and saw his hesitation and red eyes. She knew what he was thinking:

"Xiang Jingchuan is dead. Go back and pack your things. We will be back tomorrow."

Liang Chongyue walked away after he finished speaking. Ping An looked at His Highness's departing figure and felt that His Highness was becoming more and more like His Majesty.

Liang Chongyue did not return to the tent. Instead, she walked to the Xizhou ferry and looked at the rushing river water beneath her feet. Liang Chongyue's heart was extremely calm, and she became more and more clear about what she wanted.

As night fell, Liang Chongyue stood at the ferry for a long time. No one came to look for her, and she was happy to be free.

After crossing the ferry and passing through the dense forest, Liang Chongyue stood on the wall of Langwa City. Facing countless silver-gleaming swords, Liang Chongyue only tilted his head slightly, and parted his lips slightly:

"Go and tell them I want to see your king."

Liang Chongyue was standing on the city wall in a bloody suit. If he took a slight step back, he would fall off the wall which was more than ten meters high.

Facing the long sword that was about to poke his face, Liang Chongyue did not dodge at all, but just repeated:

"Go and tell them I want to see your king."

After Liang Chongyue finished speaking for the second time, she saw Qi Yu hurriedly rushing towards the city wall. When he saw her, he stretched out his hand faster than a person.

"Miss, please come down quickly. It's dangerous up there."

The news that the northern garrison had been fighting for a day and a night reached Qi Yu early this morning. Now that he saw that His Highness was safe and sound, he was completely relieved.

Liang Chongyue followed Qi Yu to his bedroom, which was luxuriously decorated with all kinds of gold and jewels. It looked even more luxurious than her scumbag father's bedroom.

After Liang Chongyue sat down, Qi Yu immediately dismissed the palace servants serving around him and poured a cup of hot tea for Liang Chongyue.

Liang Chongyue closed her eyes and sipped the tea. After finishing a cup of tea, she began to look at Qi Yu.

"How is it? Are you still used to it?"

Liang Chongyue spoke in a gentle voice, but only she knew how cold her heart was at that moment. She didn't care about the life or death of these people at all, but she had to take care of the emotions of the tools.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. Everything is fine here. But last night...was Your Highness injured?"

When Liang Chongyue heard Qi Yu asking if he was injured, he remembered the wound on his back that was caused by someone slashing him. He had not taken care of it for a day and it should have become festered.

"It's nothing, just a minor injury."

Liang Chongyue adjusted his sitting position to avoid pressing on the wound on his back. After thinking about it, it still hurt a lot.

"There are few survivors left in the northern garrison. Prepare yourself and send an envoy to the capital, expressing your willingness to unconditionally surrender to Daxia."

Qi Yu had been successfully brainwashed by Liang Chongyue. He did not hesitate at all regarding His Highness's order and began to grind ink and pick up the pen, thinking that he could finish writing while His Highness was around and have His Highness check it.

Liang Chongyue leaned tiredly on the couch and looked at the structure of the palace. Although it was luxurious, it lacked any aesthetic appeal and gave people a sense of deliberately created nobility.

After Liang Chongyue finished reading it, Qi Yu's letter of voluntary surrender was also completed. It was placed in front of Liang Chongyue like a student waiting for his homework to be checked.

Liang Chongyue took a quick look at it, found nothing particularly wrong, and returned the letter to Qi Yu:

"The border will be taken by Daxia sooner or later. The sooner we surrender, the less bloodshed and sacrifice we will suffer."

When he mentioned the word "sacrifice", Liang Chongyue paused for a moment, thinking of Xiang Jingchuan's death, and turned to Qi Yu and said:

"Keep an eye out for a man, a one-eyed man with blue eyes. He might be able to control wild beasts. He's still at the border. If you find him, kill him without mercy."

When Qi Yu heard His Highness' words, he immediately nodded in agreement. He looked at the sincere letter of voluntary surrender in his hand, and thought of his master who was always patient with him. His throat choked, and he hesitantly said to His Highness:

"Your Highness, after Langwa surrenders, Daxia will send someone to manage Langwa, right? Will I be able to return to your side?"

Upon hearing this, Liang Chongyue glanced at Qi Yu. Seeing how cautious he was, Liang Chongyue knew that he was not an unenlightened leader.

In the past, she just thought that Qi Yu was a little too dependent on Liang Fang and didn't think more about it. Now, looking back, there is indeed some unclear relationship between the two of them.

Liang Chongyue recalled the scene where Liang Fang knelt in front of her and begged her before leaving, and hoped that she was just overthinking it.

"If you want to go back then, I'll send someone to pick you up."

When Qi Yu heard this, she didn't know what was going on in his mind. Liang Chongyue felt that if he hadn't cared about his face, he would have jumped up in front of her.

"Thank you, Your Highness. I only want to be by your side. Don't worry, I will definitely complete the task you have assigned me. I wish your wishes come true soon."

Liang Chongyue didn't think too much about how much truth there was in Qi Yu's words. Everyone has someone they care about, but the four words "may your wishes come true" are too far away from her.

The most reliable thing is to bind interests without any emotion. When interests gather, they will come; when interests disperse, they will separate.

Seeing that the sky outside had completely darkened, the moon tonight was round and bright. Counting the days, she realized that she had not seen her mother for more than three months.

If I can make it back this time, I can also attend my third sister's wedding, and the capital will be bustling again.

"Okay, you should get some rest early."

Liang Chongyue stood up, opened the door and left without looking back. When she left the Langwa area, she found that the border was so vast, but there was no place she could go.

"Host, why aren't you coming back yet? Your eldest and second uncles have been waiting for you in the tent for a long time. If you don't come back soon, the mutton soup will have to be heated up three times. I'm almost starving."
