On the main hall of the Imperial Palace of the Shuoyue Kingdom.

The empress sat on the throne with a frown, and her majestic voice sounded: "Luo Chen, the Dongli Kingdom has repeatedly violated the border of our Shuoyue Country, and a few days ago, it slaughtered more than a dozen villages in the border area in one go, how do you think we should deal with it?"

"Erchen please fight against the Dongli Kingdom."

Bai Luochen bowed his head respectfully and said.

"It is worthy of the victorious general of my Shuoyue country, the future emperor, really has courage and courage, I will give you 50,000 troops, then you will set off tomorrow! Go early and return early, don't be late to marry the crown princess. ”

The Empress spoke, her tone cold and unable to hear any emotion.

"The son of the retainer is ordered to retire."

After Bai Luochen finished speaking, he respectfully withdrew.

When Bai Luochen had just walked away, there was a movement behind the dark curtain of the main hall, and a dozen people suddenly appeared ghostly behind the curtain, dressed in white, like ghosts under the moon, floating in, kneeling down on one knee in front of the empress in unison.

The leader's face was pale: "The failure of the plan last time was a dereliction of duty on the part of my subordinates, please forgive the empress." ”

The empress's thin voice came from the main hall, as cold as a knife: "You also know that you are not doing well? This time he must be allowed to go and never return. ”

Under the cold moon, the empress's face suddenly appeared murderous, and her figure flashed to the side of the leader in an instant, she slapped the leader in the face, and said sharply: "If anything goes wrong, you will come to see you, and we must make sure that nothing goes wrong, and we must not be discovered by that woman."

The man knelt on the ground and didn't dare to move: "Yes, my subordinates should be damned!" The subordinates will never dare to make any more mistakes, so please calm the empress's anger. ”

The princess's mansion of Nanyuan Kingdom.

Lin Qingwan sat alone on the recliner in the back garden, the bright May sun shone on her body, bright and a little dazzling, and she took a book to block her face.

On the shelf behind her, a large string of seven-mile incense hung from the shelf, emitting a faint peculiar aroma.

Lin Qingwan just glanced at the courtyard, sneered, and said to the position of the void: "You come out, what are you doing hiding there?" ”

The voice fell, and a man magically appeared in the shadow of the eaves, jumping down from the eaves like a ghost, and stood there far away, but did not dare to approach her.

"Bai Luochen?" Lin Qingwan was stunned for a moment, and then her face sank.

"It's me!" Bai Luochen nodded, "It's been a long time, you...... Are you okay? ”

"You are not in your New Moon Country, but you will be your crown prince. What are you doing all the way to me? Lin Qingwan asked with a sneer.

When he heard her words, he was obviously insinuating that he had given up his relationship between them for the sake of imperial power.

"I'm coming to see you, I'm going to take my troops to fight in Dongli in a while, and before I leave, I'm ...... I want to come and see you. ”

Bai Luochen looked at that longing face, and really wanted to rush up and kiss her on the cheek, but he still held back, because he knew that she still hated him.

"Campaign?! You have become His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, why did the Empress let you personally lead the troops? Isn't there any other general in your Shuoyue Kingdom who can lead troops to fight besides you? Don't you think it's strange to let a future prince take the risk? ”

When Lin Qingwan heard his words, she couldn't help but be shocked and exclaimed, it seems that this empress said that she wanted to pass on the throne to him, I am afraid that it is just a pretense, and there must be some ulterior motives planned behind her back.

However, she thought about it, what did his life and death have to do with her? Hadn't he already made a clear choice between the powerful and her?

"You...... Are you worried about me? Wan'er? You still love me. When Bai Luochen heard her say that, he felt a burst of joy in his heart, and rushed over and hugged her.

Lin Qingwan pushed him away and sneered: "Okay, I've already said what I should say and shouldn't say, you should think about what I said, remember to come back from the battlefield peacefully, your beautiful lady is still waiting for you to marry her back to the palace!" ”

"This is the sword I gave you, since it has been sent out, there is no way to say that you want it back, if you don't like to throw it away, you don't have to send someone back."

Although he didn't expect her to forgive himself this time, but hearing her cold answer, Bai Luochen's heart sank slightly, and he just said in a calm tone.

Bai Luochen glanced up at her, there seemed to be something strange in his eyes, he stepped forward, and seemed to have something to say to her.

However, it suddenly stopped, summoned the Colorful Divine Deer and flew away on it.

"Mi'er, why did that person get close to me so easily?"

Lin Qingwan said coldly.

"Subordinates damn it, please punish the young master, Prince Rui said that he has something very important to see you, let me be sure to let him in, I see that since you have been separated from him, you often have insomnia and nightmares, I think ...... The young master wanted to see him, so he ...... And let him in. ”

Mi'er respectfully knelt on one knee and said that her height had returned to normal under Lin Qingwan's offended treatment.

"That's it, forget it this time, it's better to ask me first in the future, do you understand? If he had tried to kill me, wouldn't I have died a long time ago? ”

Lin Qingwan smiled coldly, and her tone suddenly turned cold.

"Is he willing? Aren't you the one he loves the most? ”

Mi'er asked puzzled, for the love of children, she didn't understand at all, obviously a while ago, the young master and Prince Rui were in love, and said that he only loved the young master in his life.

But in a blink of an eye, Prince Rui actually became the crown prince and had to marry another woman as the crown princess.

"Oh! That's right! Young lord, the crown prince said let me hand you a letter. Mi'er took out a letter from her arms and handed it to Lin Qingwan.

"Letter? What letter? Lin Qingwan's heart sank more and more, and she glanced at Mi'er.

Hearing Bai Luochen's words and seeing this letter again, Lin Qingwan's face was also a little uneasy.

"The crown prince just said that it was a very important letter, so that his subordinates must hand it over to the young master."

Mi'er said lightly.

Lin Qingwan held the hand of the letter, couldn't help but tremble a little, and then stood up, her steps a little unsteady.

She hurried back to her room.

Slowly opened the letter, in which Bai Luochen wrote out the ins and outs of why he agreed to be the prince and why he had to marry the Zhao family.

She froze in place when she read it, and with a shake of her fingers holding the letter, the letter slipped out of her hand and fell to the ground.

"Luo Chen!" She couldn't hold back the anxiety in her heart anymore, and ran out of the princess's mansion frantically.

"Hehe, she's finally out, let her die happily!"

A man in black sneered when he saw Lin Qingwan running out in the alley not far from the door.

"Yes!" The crowd in the shadows retreated silently, chasing in the direction of Lin Qingwan like a group of ghosts.
