The Ugly Concubine Strikes Back: The War God Prince Spoils Her Crazy
Chapter 454: Border Unrest
Footsteps sounded.
Murong Shuning originally thought Xiao Lijing would come over to comfort her, but...
He actually didn't even look at her, but walked straight past her and came to Chu Wanyu.
Xiao Lijing sat down and spoke gently, "Do you know what happened?"
"I don't know yet! What you've been saying is all nonsense."
Chu Wanyu spoke bluntly, then her eyes fell on Murong Shuning, "Now that the king is here, speak!"
Murong Shuning, "..."
She ignored Chu Wanyu and instead set her eyes on Xiao Lijing.
"Your Majesty, I have something I want to discuss with you in private!"
He spoke each word "privately" with obvious emphasis.
Xiao Lijing picked up the teacup and drank tea without saying a word.
Chu Wanyu raised her eyebrows and coquettishly took Xiao Lijing's arm, "Your Highness, is there something I can't listen to?"
"Of course not!" Xiao Lijing was full of curiosity and answered quickly.
Murong Shuning, "..."
His fists had already been clenched under his sleeves.
He took a few deep breaths and said, "Princess, a true man conquers the four corners of the world and a king soars high in the sky. You shouldn't let your love life delay the affairs of state!"
Xiao Lijing placed the teacup heavily on the table, "How bold!"
There was a loud bang, which scared everyone.
Murong Shuning's face was filled with dissatisfaction as he said, "Your Highness, are you aware that unrest has broken out on the border?"
Xiao Lijing hummed lightly and ignored her. Instead, he handed a piece of dessert to Chu Wanyu and said, "Try it. This is freshly made in the kitchen!"
As the dessert enters your mouth, the sweetness spreads throughout your mouth.
Chu Wanyu took only one bite and put it back on the plate. "It's just okay, too sweet!"
Xiao Lijing nodded, "Tell the kitchen to pay attention!"
The two people showed their affection as if no one was around.
Murong Shuning looked dissatisfied, "Your Highness, you are the god of war on the battlefield. Don't you care about this matter? There are many people waiting for your return!"
"I am just a blind man, how can I take care of what happens on the battlefield!" Xiao Lijing replied indifferently.
Those empty eyes were calm.
It seems as if he doesn't care about border affairs at all.
"your eyes……"
In his excitement, he almost blurted out the fact that Xiao Lijing's eyes had recovered.
Fortunately, Murong Shuning stopped in time at the last moment.
She looked at Xiao Lijing indignantly, "Prince Murong and his family will go to the border, and they will definitely protect that territory for you!"
After saying this, he pretended to be nonchalant and turned away.
He looked so heroic and confident that if you didn't know him, you would think he was asking for permission.
What happens in the court cannot be hidden from Prince Zhan’s palace.
Unrest on the border.
Many generals in the court took the initiative to go there.
But most of these generals were Xiao Lijing's men, and the emperor was not confident in using them, so he handed this matter over to the Murong family.
This matter is like a hot potato.
For the Murong family, doing well may not necessarily be rewarded.
But if the border is lost, the death penalty will be unavoidable.
Watching the man leave, Chu Wanyu tutted her tongue twice, "This man is so shameless. But, what does the prince think about this matter?"
Xiao Lijing sighed, "How pitiful for the people of this world!"
The powerful people in the capital had little influence on the war.
But the people, the treasury is empty, the war consumes a huge amount of money, and taxes will actually be increased.
In recent years, due to continuous wars, the people have been living in misery.
To be honest, if a fight breaks out, I'm afraid...
He shook his head helplessly and looked at the sky, "I just hope I can defend the border!"
Chu Wanyu sighed, "Yes, the people are the ones who suffer the most!"
Both husband and wife were helpless about this matter.
Xiao Lijing can only remain blind now, otherwise his life will be in danger and the court will be in turmoil.
Chu Wanyu nestled in his arms, suddenly remembering the person she met at the clinic. "That person had an extraordinary aura, and looked no ordinary person! And the wounds on his body were clearly from the battlefield..."
I heard Chu Wanyu praising another man.
Xiao Lijing's face was full of resentment. He pinched his waist and asked, "Is that man very handsome?"
The tone is sour.
Chu Wanyu quickly apologized with a smile, "Of course not, the prince is the most handsome!"
Xiao Lijing's expression did not change when he heard the sweet words.
Chu Wanyu threw herself into his arms and kissed him twice, "Okay, don't be angry, I just think this person is a little strange, we should investigate!"
The two chatted about the annual court meeting.
"It's best not to stay out too long these days! Otherwise you might get into trouble!"
The Zhan Palace is never afraid of trouble, but it also doesn't want to cause trouble.
Especially in these troubled times.
Thinking about the things in the Prince’s Mansion.
Xiao Lijing held Chu Wanyu's hand and said, "Go visit the Crown Princess when you have time!"
Although I haven't seen her for a long time, rumors about the Crown Princess keep reaching my ears.
Ever since losing her child, her status in the Prince's Mansion has plummeted.
Even with the protection of the Crown Prince, the Crown Princess's lack of children has been a hidden pain for many years.
The concubines in the Crown Prince's Mansion are not easy to get along with. They either find trouble with the Crown Princess or mock her openly or covertly.
It wasn't long after that, but the Crown Princess looked like she had aged several years.
Chu Wanyu sighed and said, "The person who tied the bell must untie it. Go see the prince and say a few words!"
