"There are still eight years left before the prince becomes an adult, and who knows what will happen?" Hui Neng smiled.
Zhao Zheng stopped talking, he didn't think too much about it originally, but now that he has become the king of Beihu, he can't lose, he also wants to become the emperor of Southern Xia, and he wants to compete with Ku Zhuo.
"So don't care about the momentary gains and losses, but in the long run, the prosperity of Southern Xia naturally has the foundation to compete with the Northern Hu, if you are tough with the Northern Hu at this time, it hurts the country, and it will be difficult to recover for a while." Huineng persuaded earnestly again.
Zhao Zheng nodded, didn't say anything more, and drank all the wine in the cup.
"Am I really too much for Yuexi?" After being silent for a while, Zhao Zheng asked Huineng.
Huineng sighed, he didn't understand why Zhao Zheng would treat Shen Yuexi like that later, let her go out of the palace to live a hard life, and then simply imprisoned her, in those days of captivity, he didn't have to think about it to know what kind of torture it was for Shen Yuexi, who liked to be free.
"Then why did you do this to her?"
Zhao Zheng half-lowered his eyes, and after a long while, he said faintly: "I don't know why, I obviously love her so much." ”
After all, Zhao Zheng still didn't tell Huineng, Yi'er was a clumsy child, he thought he could be tolerant enough, but he didn't, every time he thought of this, his heart was like a knife, accumulating little by little, and the love was not as good as before, mixed with too many other emotions.
"It would be nice to have a softer temperament." Finally, Zhao Zheng said.
Huineng looked at Zhao Zheng, "I thought you liked her, that is, she liked her unique temperament, Yuexi is not like an ordinary woman, she is tough, stubborn, and has a free heart, isn't it her like that?" ”
There are so many women in the world who are dependent on others, if Zhao Zheng wants it, there are thousands of them, but Shen Yuexi has only one.
This came to Zhao Zheng's heart, he really loved Shen Yuexi like that, but he not only loved Shen Yuexi's stubbornness and independence, but also hoped that she could lower her figure in front of him, what kind of Shen Yuexi did he want, at this moment, he was confused.
In the final analysis, he didn't understand after all, his love for Shen Yuexi was not pure and thorough enough, and Clumsy was different from him, Clumsy loved Shen Yuexi, and used his whole heart, no matter who Shen Yuexi was by his side or whose children he had, Clumsy didn't care, he loved Shen Yuexi, loved everything about her, no matter what kind of past she had, he could tolerate it.
After drinking a jar of wine, Zhao Zheng asked Huineng to rest, and then walked out of the Qinzheng Hall alone.
He just wanted to walk around alone, empty himself, and think about it.
Who knew that he walked and walked, but he walked to Yuxiu Palace.
There are no lights in Yuxiu Palace, the palace people have withdrawn, and the bleak place in the night, Zhao Zheng pushed the door and walked in, looking at the empty courtyard, the empty swing, the reclining chairs in the courtyard are still there, once upon a time, Shen Yuexi liked to lie on it and bask in the sun.
Zhao Zheng walked over, his hand caressed the swing that Shen Yuexi had sit, the recliner he had reclined, the railing of the corridor, and the bright days of the old days seemed to have been resurrected one by one with his fingers.
Finally, Zhao Zheng pushed open the door of the bedroom, because the house had been uninhabited for a long time, and there was a bleak smell of dust in the air.
The futon on the bed was still there, just not warm.
There was no temperature in the whole room, and everything lost color as Shen Yuexi left.
Zhao Zheng sat on the edge of the bed, bowing his head and being silent. Lonely and desolate, Zhao Zheng's heart is like a crescent moon in the night sky.
He regretted a little at the moment, he shouldn't have treated Shen Yuexi like that, he originally wanted to be with her, they had a few children of their own, he would grow up with the children and grow old with Shen Yuexi.
However, in the end, this is the case.
"Yuexi, am I wrong?" In the deep night, Zhao Zheng asked softly.
No one answered. Zhao Zheng gritted his teeth and closed his eyes.

In the end, Zhao Zheng decided not to go to the front line to supervise the battle, but the attack on Beihu was still as usual, and he ordered that if the city of Beihu was not captured, all the property in the city would be owned by the front army, and there was no need to hand over to the treasury, so as to motivate the fighting spirit of the soldiers.
This imperial order really greatly boosted morale, and the soldiers in front were much braver than before, and they successively won several cities in Beihu.
Shen Yuexi retreated with the army again and again, the situation was very bad, Shen Yuexi was anxious in her heart, her position was very delicate, Beihu was clumsy, Nanxia had Shen Yi, both of them were her closest people, she was not happy if she lost, she was not happy if she won, she hoped not to fight, and to live some peaceful days.
However, at this moment, she is just a duckweed that drifts with the tide during the war, and she is ready to live and die with Ku.
"How's Wonkyo doing?" When she saw Mu Geduo, Shen Yuexi couldn't help but ask after all.
The clumsy situation of not knowing every day is too painful for her.
"The old nobles have sued the general for peace, the general has incorporated their subordinate army, and the general will ascend the throne as the king of Beihu one day, you just have to wait in peace, and in a few days, the general will send someone to pick you up and the prince." Mu Geduo told Shen Yuexi about the clumsy recent situation.
Shen Yuexi nodded and didn't ask any more.
The battle reports on this side are also urgently reported to Yuanjing from time to time, and while dealing with the problems in Yuanjing, he instructed Mu Geduo on how to deal with the battle, often late at night, and he was still in the hall to deal with government affairs, and many times, he was so busy that he didn't even have time to miss Shen Yuexi and Yi'er.
Nanxia suddenly mobilized troops to the frontier, and Hu Zhuo knew that this was Zhao Zheng's hatred for him, and people would be desperate when they hated, and it would have an effect in a short time, but if the troops were concentrated on the frontier, there would inevitably be loopholes elsewhere, and southern Yunnan was a loophole, so Hu Zhuo decided to send someone to contact the king of southern Yunnan, and was willing to send 100,000 troops to help the king of southern Yunnan.
The Jingwei sent by the clumsy man was already on the way, and he was in a hurry day and night, and it was estimated that it would take more than two months to go back and forth.
On the frontier side, Ku Zhuo also sent additional cavalry, Nanxia's horses were insufficient, and the combat effectiveness was not as good as that of Beihu.
On the side of Yuanjing, after more than a month of suppression and pacification, the court was basically restored as before, the decomposition of the opposition forces, the assassination of the assassination, at that time, there was no defeat of the clumsy at that time, the opposition forces were weak day by day, and after a few days the clumsy ascended the throne, the king of Beihu, he sat firmly.
Therefore, Hu Zhuo has sent a message to Mu Geduo, and asked his elite guards to escort Shen Yuexi and Yi'er into Yuanjing, the moment he ascended the throne as king, he hoped that Shen Yuexi would be by his side, and he wanted to crown Shen Yuexi as the queen of Beihu.
As for the ancestral rule that intermarriage between different races was abolished from the day he came to power.
It took him a few years to finally give Shen Yuexi a legitimate name, she is his wife, the only one.
**
On that day, Shen Yuexi was basking in the sun in the barracks with Yi'er in her arms, and the early summer sun was warm and comfortable.
Mu Geduo rode over, saw Shen Yuexi, and dismounted to give a salute.
"The general will ascend the throne in seven days, and I will be ordered to escort you and the prince to Yuanjing." Mu Geduo said to Shen Yuexi.
The news was a little unexpected, but Shen Yuexi nodded quickly, and without delay, let Zhicui simply pack her bags and go on the road with Jingwei.
"We're going to Yuanjing in Beihu?" On the way, Zhicui had a feeling of being like a dream.
Shen Yuexi nodded.
Zhicui let out a sigh of relief, didn't say anything, and followed Shen Yuexi to serve, her life was so ups and downs that even she herself was a little unbelievable.
Why doesn't Shen Yuexi feel that life is like a dream? She thought two years ago that she would stay with Hu Zhuo for the rest of her life, but later she married Zhao Zheng, she thought that she would grow old with Zhao Zheng, but she returned to Hu Zhuo's side again.
What does the future hold? Shen Yuexi secretly thought, so be it, don't be turbulent anymore, with Huchou by her side, with Yi'er, she won't ask for more.
The carriage traveled slowly, and it was only on the sixth day that it reached Yuanjing.
Suddenly put down all the government affairs in his hand and personally went to greet Shen Yuexi outside the city gate.
I haven't seen each other for a month and a half, Shen Yuexi's complexion is much better, and Yi'er is stronger.
Hu clumsily took Yi'er in Shen Yuexi's arms from the carriage, and then took Shen Yuexi's hand and hugged her from the carriage with one hand, he didn't say anything, only lowered his head and kissed Shen Yuexi lightly on the forehead.
There were many people present, and everyone could see the deep affection and love for Shen Yuexi.
After entering the city, he changed the emperor in the palace, and sat in with Shen Yuexi.
Zhicui followed the carriage at first, walked a few steps, and saw that the mountain rode forward and stretched out his hand to Zhicui.
Zhicui and Jianshan have a lot of feelings all the way from the capital to the frontier, at this time seeing Jianshan stretched out his hand to her, Zhicui's face turned red, but still got on the horse of Jianshan, there were many onlookers on both sides, Zhicui felt that this moment was the most glorious moment of her life.
When he arrived at the palace, the dormitory prepared for Shen Yuexi had already been packed.
"Do you still like it here?" Hu Zhuo accompanied Shen Yuexi to look around the dormitory, and then asked.
Shen Yuexi nodded, in fact, for her, it doesn't matter where she lives, as long as she is clumsy, it's fine.
"I have already customized the queen's uniform, you can try it in a while, and I will ascend the throne tomorrow, which is also your queen ceremony." Suddenly, he said again.
It stands to reason that the king's enthronement and the post-sealing ceremony cannot be carried out at the same time, but he wants to let the world know his love for Shen Yuexi, and everyone can't despise her because she is a woman of different races.
Shen Yuexi looked up at Hu Zhuo, she was moved by the appearance of this man standing up to the sky, but she couldn't, she couldn't let Hu Zhuo hold the post-sealing ceremony at the same time, she was a woman of different races, and she was the seventh princess of Southern Xia, she couldn't let Hu Zhuo suffer the criticism of others because of her identity.
"On the day of your accession to the throne, I can just keep an eye on you, and as for the seal, it is not too late to talk about it later." Shen Yuexi said softly to Hu Zhuo.
