"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! I thought my life was over and I would never see you again!"

"Wanwan, my Wanwan, you are still alive, you are still alive!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I am alive, and your Wanwan is still alive. Your Majesty, we have survived this great disaster, and we must grow old together..."

"Yes, we'll be together till old age. I promise you, Wanwan, I'll be with you till old age!"

The two hugged each other and expressed their love. Although they could not hug each other tightly because of their injuries, their love was full.

After holding each other for a quarter of an hour, Concubine De and Concubine Shun, who were attending to the injured emperor, reminded them that the imperial concubine's injury needed to be bandaged and that His Majesty should not get too excited while his body was injured. Only then did the two separate.

There was a commotion outside the tent, with voices of men and horses neighing, groups of soldiers moving back and forth, and the sound of trumpets faintly heard in the distance.

The war is not over.

There were only 30,000 soldiers guarding the dragon tent, and the remaining more than 100,000 were distributed within a radius of 100 miles, either searching for the enemy or encircling and suppressing the fleeing enemy troops.

During the day and night that Fei Wan was away, the battle broke out without warning.

Last night, when the emperor and Fei Wan were "captured", five thousand elite enemy troops launched a surprise attack, catching the Daliang soldiers who were still asleep off guard.

Aside from the Li family army and three other armies that responded quickly, the rest of the camps were disorganized. Even as the enemy advanced deep into their territory, they were bewildered and unsure what to do. While generals like Concubine Hui led their troops in the fight, the soldiers from the other camps wandered about aimlessly, many of them not only failing to assist but also becoming obstacles, slowing the turnaround of the battle.

It was ridiculous and shameful that more than 100,000 people were fooled around by a few thousand enemy soldiers.

Fortunately, the Daliang army had a large number of troops, and with Concubine Hui and other troops holding on, the enemy did not gain much advantage. After a while of fighting, they quickly retreated. Concubine Hui and others gave chase and turned defense into offense.

The emperor's disappearance became the source of chaos in the Liang army.

When the generals and accompanying officials discovered that His Majesty was missing, the camp was in chaos.

Later, when the emperor was not found, everyone received news that the enemy had shot arrows at them. The enemy said that your emperor is in our hands and that if you surrender all your troops, the emperor will be safe.

A group of civil and military officials even started arguing over whether or not to surrender their weapons.

During this time, elite enemy troops attacked the camp, holding long flags with the Chinese characters for Daliang, ordering the soldiers not to resist. Some fought back, while others hesitated, and the battle became chaotic, resulting in over 100,000 casualties, yet the enemy escaped unscathed.

Concubine Hui and others led the team to chase the first group of enemy troops. Seeing the situation, they were furious and went to chase the next group.

The quarrel at the top finally came to an end, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers finally divided into several groups and began searching for the emperor in several directions.

This chaotic situation lasted for most of the day until noon, when the emperor was escorted back by the personal guards of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and the situation quickly improved.

The emperor gave the order despite his injuries, and the soldiers were sent out to either hunt down the enemy or search for other enemies that might be hiding everywhere.

Fei Wan bandaged the wounds on his body, but the search was not over yet.

As the sky gradually darkened, the emperor discussed some matters with his ministers for a while and was exhausted, so he returned to Feiwan's tent early to rest.

His dragon tent was broken into by the enemy, and even though he had already dealt with it, it still annoyed him.

Only with Fei Wan could he completely relax his tense spirit and sleep peacefully.

Because Fei Wan was the only person he was sure would risk her life to save him in a life-or-death situation.

"I've been busy over the past six months and haven't had much time to spend with you. Wanwan, you don't blame me, do you?"

He lay on Fei Wan's couch, holding Fei Wan's hand.

Fei Wan sat on the cushion beside the couch and smiled softly: "Your Majesty has worked hard for the country. How could I blame you? I only care about your health."

The emperor felt uncomfortable and tired, suffering from all kinds of pain.

The bruises and limp were caused by a fall while fleeing down the mountain in a panic. The shoulder injury was caused by getting lost and encountering a fleeing enemy force. If he hadn't been wearing eunuch clothes at the time, if the Duke's Palace guards brought by Princess Qinghe hadn't been searching for the emperor nearby, and if Concubine Hui hadn't been leading her men in pursuit of the enemy force, and if rescue hadn't arrived in time, he would have been dead.

He was extremely angry after surviving the disaster.

After returning to the camp, he was busy with treatment and meetings. At this time, lying next to Fei Wan, the emperor's eyes couldn't help but become wet when he heard Fei Wan's concern for his health.

Suppressed fear and grievance spread up.

It made him cry and tremble all over.

Fei Wan gently hugged his head and comforted him gently.

Your Majesty, cry! You are so weak-willed, how can you not vent your feelings? I promised you that I would be your sister, and I never break my promise.

"Wanwan, you don't blame me for leaving you in the cave, right?"

The crying emperor has not forgotten to untie his knot.

Fei Wan naturally said, Of course not, Your Majesty.

She wasn't truly a concubine who depended on him, and she never had any emotional expectations towards him. Even being abandoned was a carefully orchestrated scheme by her.

Make him devoted to her.

Even the most favored person will eventually fade. Furthermore, the emperor's tendency to get tired of the old and love the new is incredibly rapid, almost like a disease. He had been showering her with favor for the past six months, but Fei Wan knew he was tired of her. Otherwise, even if she tried desperately to avoid his bedchamber, she wouldn't be able to succeed.

Therefore, Fei Wan wanted him to develop a new feeling for her.

That is, being moved and grateful.

Now, the goal has been achieved.

Fei Wan began to guide him to give her more power.

After expressing her feelings, Fei Wan suggested that the camp was too chaotic.

After the emperor finished crying, he was immediately irritated by these words and began to get angry.

"Too much! They've become so chaotic while I'm away! An army of over one hundred thousand soldiers being toyed with by a few tiny enemy forces! They're so disunited and bickering on the battlefield. I really want to kill them all! What's the point of keeping useless things around?"

His choked and hoarse voice made Fei Wan sneer secretly.

When you are not present, the generals and court officials act on their own. Isn't this the result of your deliberate balance on a daily basis?

There is no minister in the court who can take charge, and no general in the army who can take charge. If a group of scattered soldiers gather together to fight a war, even if they are not ambushed, other major incidents will occur.

"Your Majesty, I heard that it was fortunate that the Empress argued vigorously with the court officials, and that they were able to send troops out in time to search for us. Concubine Hui and several generals also fought hard, so there weren't too many casualties in the camp." Fei Wan sighed and said with emotion, "As a woman, I shouldn't comment on court officials, but this time, it seems they are so disappointing. Fortunately, Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, with unparalleled luck, otherwise we would all be in great danger this time."

Fei Wan's emotion struck a chord with the emperor.

He missed Lu Guinian.

If Lu Guinian were there, the situation would be under control quickly, the court officials would not be able to quarrel, and he could win the argument over everyone alone.

But now, let’s not talk about him.

"Wanwan, I'm not feeling well. Please take care of these court officials for me for a while."

His sudden order made Fei Wan secretly happy and surprised.
