“Young Miss, I must stay and protect you.” Bei Ye immediately objected.
Murong Yu knew that the maid beside her was a woman disguised as a man; although she was a man, she was quite skilled in martial arts.
"He will stay and protect you because I have someone by my side."
"Did you bring the Dragon Shadow Guards?" Yun Xiyue asked, still worried.
"Don't worry! The Dragon Shadow Guards are wherever I am."
Yun Xiyue was relieved and said, "Mm."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law. My brother will be safe with me and General Zeng protecting him," Murong Chen said with a smile.
Yun Xiyue smiled and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Prince Rui. If anything happens to the Emperor, I'll hold you responsible."
Murong Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, "Alright!"
Zeng Rou did not come over.
He glanced at her with a hint of smugness. At this moment, only she could stand beside Yu-gege. This was the difference between Yun Xiyue and himself.
"Ah Yue, I'm leaving now. Go back now! Take good care of yourself while I'm gone."
Murong Yu hugged her from behind, then mounted his horse and announced their departure.
The army marched out of the capital like a long black dragon.
Yunxiyue stood on the city tower and watched the person leave.
"Don't worry, the Emperor is an expert in military strategy and has even fought countless battles. You should have faith in him," Xiao Rongrong said, accompanying her.
"Sister Xiao, is this war really targeting Great Xia, or is someone deliberately trying to ruin our wedding?"
"I always felt that this war came out of nowhere and there were too many suspicious aspects."
Xiao Rongrong said, "It wasn't exactly intentional. The Emperor of Beigong Kingdom has a deep grudge against our Emperor."
“A few years ago, when the emperor of Beigong Kingdom had just ascended the throne, there was a period of turmoil, so they did not join forces with Nanqiang Kingdom to attack us. This time, they have made adjustments and will attack us sooner or later. Also, Nanqiang Kingdom lost once and is not convinced. Lin Bao’er’s death has become their excuse to make a comeback.”
Yun Xiyue exclaimed in surprise, "Lin Bao'er is dead? Didn't she run away?"
"She died. Shen Yue drove her to the brink of despair, and she jumped off a cliff."
"Fearing it would disrupt peace between the two countries, Shen Yue kept it a secret until he had no choice but to tell the Emperor."
"That's why the Emperor sent the prince to the border ahead of schedule."
Her three sons all went with her, but her daughter was still young, so she had to stay in the capital and wait until her daughter was older.
Murong Yu didn't tell her, probably because he felt it was unnecessary.
Lin Bao'er deserved to die.
"So she really did deliberately get close to Shen Yue?"
Xiao Rongrong nodded. "I heard that's how it is. It's just strange that she followed Shen Yue for five years and did nothing in the end. Instead, she helped Da Xia defeat Nan Qiang."
“It’s impossible that we got nothing at all; it’s just that Shen Yue didn’t tell the truth.” Yun Xiyue chuckled, feeling that she needed to remind Murong Yu about this.
......
"Sister-in-law, where are you going?"
Xiao Ling'er put on men's clothing and said, "Yue'er, I plan to go to the border with my older brother and the others to fight on the battlefield."
"Ling'er, think it over again!" Madam Yun disagreed. "Han'er and the others are not in the capital right now. If you want to go to the battlefield, you should wait for Han'er to come back and discuss it with him first."
Xiao Ling'er's smile froze. "Mother, Xiao Han, he won't care about me."
"..." One sentence left Madam Yun speechless.
Yun Xiyue asked, "Does General Xiao agree?"
“I didn’t tell my grandfather that this is the only chance for our Xiao family to regain control of the military. We can’t miss it. I’m going to help my father.”
"Of course, more importantly, with the nation in peril, as a daughter of the Xiao family, I cannot back down. If daughters of the Zeng family can fight on the battlefield, why can't I?"
Xiao Ling'er felt that she would not lose to Zeng Rou.
And Yun Xiaohan doesn't have her in his heart.
He will probably divorce me after the war ends.
But she wanted to try again and make him understand that she was a very good woman.
I couldn't persuade her, so I had no choice but to let her go.
