There is no better time than now.

Liu Ruoyu was also very clear that the reason why Song Zhi wanted to deal with Li Guo so quickly was because of her. She didn't say much. Given their relationship, saying too much would seem pretentious.

But it was obvious that the smile on her face became more and more intense.

The only one who was not surprised among all the people was Jiang Li. After all, he had always expected Song Zhi to deal with him.

He just didn't expect Ruoruo to hate him so much, to the point that she would rather let her country perish.

After all, the Kingdom of Li was conquered by her father, wasn't it?

Leaving most of the troops behind, Jiang Li decisively led his troops to the border with the Phoenix Kingdom.

However, he was still a step too late. When he arrived, the Phoenix army had already captured two cities of the Li Kingdom in succession.

Because the main force of the Li Kingdom was fighting against the Wei Kingdom in the north, there were naturally not many guards at the border with the Huang Kingdom.

Jiang Li thought he could make it in time, but he didn't expect Song Zhi to secretly send his troops to launch a surprise attack first.

The one leading the troops into battle this time was still Xin Wanyun. She was also the commander-in-chief who set out ahead with the troops, so she was not present at the coronation ceremony.

Meng Qi and Xie Ting set off later. A Luan also changed into the military uniform and set off with Xie Ting and the others.

Song Chenfeng originally wanted to go, but because Cuihua's body had not yet recovered, it would be heartless and ungrateful to leave at this time, so he had to stay in Lecheng temporarily.

He looked at A Luan playing with Xie Ting with some sadness, thinking that if they continued to interact like this every day, they would definitely develop feelings for each other.

Actually, that's pretty good.

Xie Ting and A Luan were really happy because they didn't have to put on a show anymore after they left here.

Xie Ting smiled and fiddled with A-Luan's hairband. "I feel more relaxed with your outfit. Girls' outfits are beautiful, but I always feel restrained. I lost to you in archery last time because I didn't fully demonstrate my strength."

Ah Luan snorted, "If you're not as skilled as others, then you're not as skilled as others. Why are you making excuses for yourself?"

Xie Ting snorted, "My archery skills are more than enough to deal with ten of you. Why bother making excuses?"

"Okay, then we'll compete again when we have time."

The two men mounted their horses and left directly. Under the setting sun, Song Chenfeng's figure, left alone, looked particularly lonely.

Cuihua couldn't bear to watch it any longer, "Song Lang, why don't you go with them? I know your ambitions, and I definitely don't want to hold you back if I marry you."

Song Chenfeng patted her face and forced a smile, "What are you talking about? I stayed here because I was afraid of death. It has nothing to do with you."

Cuihua knew that his words were meant to comfort her, but she still sternly corrected him, "Don't say that about yourself. You've never been someone who's afraid of death."

The two of them walked towards their own mansion, hugging each other.

At night, after dinner, Song Chenfeng was called out by some friends for a drink.

Song Chenfeng didn't want to go at first, but Cuihua thought that he was in a bad mood and maybe spending more time with his friends could help him relieve it, so she pushed him out the door.

Not long after he left, a doctor came to the Song Mansion.

Because Doctor Jiang had been accompanying the army, although she had been taking the recuperation prescriptions given by Doctor Jiang, she had never asked Doctor Jiang to take her pulse to check on her recovery.

She has been taking the recuperation medicine for a long time now, and she wants to see how her recovery is going.

If possible, she also wanted to have a child for Song Lang as soon as possible.

After all, Aunt Xie meant that implicitly, she wanted to have a grandson sooner rather than later.

Xie Yinyin and Song Yang only knew that Cuihua was injured because of Song Chenfeng, but they didn't know that it would be difficult for Cuihua to get pregnant in this life, so they didn't have any taboos about it.

The doctor had a pleasant expression at first, but when he placed his hand on Xie Yinyin's wrist, his expression gradually became serious.

Cuihua originally had a smile on her face, thinking that this was a normal consultation, but she didn't expect the doctor to show such an expression.

She couldn't help but feel a pang of anxiety in her heart. "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with my body?"

The doctor hesitated to speak, not knowing how to begin.

Cuihua felt even more overwhelmed by a bad premonition, "What's going on? Just tell me."

The doctor sighed, "Madam, you are weak. There is nothing wrong with you, except..."

"Just what?"

"I'm afraid it'll be hard to get pregnant."

The doctor quickly said, "Of course, this may be a conclusion drawn by my limited medical skills. You can consult Dr. Jiang. He is a master doctor and may have a cure."

"what!"

These words were like a bolt from the blue. Her eyes became dull in an instant, and her soul seemed to be pulled out of her body.

"It's so hard to get pregnant, how could this happen, how could this happen!"

Her originally rosy face turned pale in an instant and her whole body began to tremble.

Doctor Jiang had clearly treated her before, and he said it was not a serious matter.

No wonder Doctor Jiang frowned like that that day. Is it so serious?

She felt more panicked than ever before, as if she was stuck in a quagmire and unable to extricate herself.

After sending the doctor away in a daze, she returned to her room and sat down on the bed in despair with a dull look in her eyes.

She couldn't help but wonder, does Chen Feng know about this? Do Aunt Xie and the others know about it? If they don't know, how will they look at her in the future?

On top of that, it was difficult for her to have children of her own.

God knows how much she wants to have a child of her own. Why does God treat her like this?

Why is it so difficult to get pregnant? Why is it so cruel?

Cuihua couldn't help but burst into tears, her eyes became red and swollen, and her voice became hoarse.

Fortunately, she had dismissed all the servants around her, so no one saw her like this, but her heart felt like there was a big hole in it, letting in a cold wind that was blowing painfully.

I don’t know how long it took, but finally footsteps were heard at the door.

It’s Chen Feng, Chen Feng is back!

She rushed over excitedly. She wanted to tell Chen Feng the truth: she could not give birth to children for him and could not carry on his family line.

She wanted to tell Chen Feng and let him make his own choice. If Chen Feng didn't want her, she wouldn't insist on occupying the position of lady.

She was like an abandoned child, fearfully wanting to grab a piece of driftwood, but also afraid that the piece of driftwood was not enough to support her.

The door was opened and Song Chenfeng stood outside drunkenly. He reeked of alcohol and seemed to have drunk too much. He was no longer fully conscious.

"Song Lang, I..."

"Aluan, you didn't leave. You didn't leave. That's so great. You couldn't bear to leave me, right? I like you. I'm attracted to you, Aluan. Why didn't you let me finish what I was saying that day?"

As soon as Cuihua opened her mouth, she was bumped into by Song Chenfeng.

He rested his head in the crook of her neck and babbled nonsense without paying any attention.
