Young people's emotions always accumulate in their hearts. I thought that after not seeing each other for many years, the bond in my heart would disappear without a trace.

But he had only been back for a few days, and they had only seen each other for a few times, but he had already been moved and it was impossible for him to forget her.

He was afraid that she would suffer injustice in the Shogun's Mansion without anyone to protect her, and he had not yet established a firm foothold in Kyoto, so he arranged his people to move into the Shogun's Mansion.

"I just wish you the best. I hope that even if I'm not by your side, you can still be loved."

A general's wife and a victorious prince would never have much in common.

But I didn't expect there would always be a chance.

General's Mansion.

Du Wan looked at Fu Hengyu excitedly, her eyes full of jealousy.

"Why should she go with you? Why can't it be me..."

Fu Hengyu frowned, "This is a summons from His Majesty. He should have brought his wife with him. How can I take you with me?"

"Didn't you say that I have long been your legal wife in your eyes? Why can't you take me with you? General, you lied to me again..."

Du Wan's nails dug into the flesh, making her clumsy figure look even more pitiful.

But Fu Hengyu's face was full of determination.

"Stop it, it must be her this time!"

“If His Majesty knew that I favored my concubine over my wife, not to mention the merits I have brought back from escaping death, the entire General’s Mansion would be destroyed. By then, we’d all be finished!”

The current emperor cares most about human ethics and moral principles. As an emperor, he dotes on the queen extremely and has not even entered the bedrooms of other concubines for many years.

If he knew that as a minister, he not only abandoned his wife in the general's mansion for many years without caring about her, but also openly brought his concubine in and out of the mansion, he would not even be able to save his life.

Du Wan was still making a fuss, and the old lady started to speak out in dismay.

"If it's something else, it's not impossible to follow your wishes, but this matter is not negotiable."

She looked at the person in front of her, "Moreover, with your status, if you were to meet the king, you would probably lose your composure and disturb His Majesty. You should stay in the mansion."

She held her belly, her face full of fearlessness, "If you don't take me with you, I will kill the baby in my belly right now, and your general's family will be extinct."

Du Wan naturally didn't want to miss the opportunity to meet the king.

If she performs well this time, she might be able to gain His Majesty's approval and no longer have to look at Shen Yuerong's face.

The old lady was very annoyed. Even the usually noisy Fu Hengyue was very quiet at this moment. What was wrong with Du Wan today?

"What's wrong, husband?"

Shen Yuerong had already sat on the carriage, but seeing that no one had gotten up, she had someone help her down. Through the door, she could see the quarrel between them.

Fu Hengyu was so annoyed by Du Wan that he lost his temper. He looked at Shen Yuerong and said, "Wan'er... insisted on going with me."

"Why is my sister so obsessed?"

She looked at the person in front of her and said with a smile, "Although His Majesty is hosting a family banquet today, it is actually to reward the general and to reward the soldiers on the frontier. I am afraid that all the officials are here, and the etiquette is complicated. Not to mention that Du Wanmei is not in good health, even the etiquette is not understood by me. It is better for me to stay in the mansion."

"I don't want it!"

Du Wan tugged at Fu Hengyu's sleeve, her eyes full of pity.

"Du Wan."

The old lady looked at Shen Yuerong, her tone somewhat reproachful, "You better stay at home. There will be opportunities for such banquets in the future."

She was somewhat unwilling, but the old lady warned her again, leaving her no choice.

"Take good care of your master."

Shen Yuerong instructed the servant beside Du Wan, and then pretended to be intimate and took Fu Hengyu's hand, "It's getting late now, we should set off, otherwise if we are late, His Majesty will blame us."

"good."

The people from the general's mansion left in a mighty manner.

The courtyard, which was once rich and magnificent, now has only Du Wan's small house lit up.

She looked at the quiet courtyard, her whole body filled with anger, "Bitch, why? Why can she go but I can't!"

Du Wan completely ignored Shen Yuerong's original identity and only thought that she was a woman vying for favor like herself.

At the royal banquet.

The general was arranged to be the fifth from the lower left, with Shen Yuerongzi accompanying him, and behind him sat the old lady and Fu Hengyu's younger siblings.

Chi Mu sat in the first seat on the right hand side of His Majesty, which was a bit far away, but since he sat down at the table, he had been facing the direction of Shen Yuerong.

This made His Majesty, who had been paying attention to Chi Mu, feel something strange.

The banquet began and the dancers came on stage, full of joy.

His Majesty looked at the prince with a face full of affection and said, "You left for three years and never came back. It was really worrying. Now that you have finally returned to the capital, please don't leave again in the future."

Chi Mu stood up and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I will not leave again."

The reason I left that year was naturally because of emotional hurt.

Now that I'm back, everything has already been prepared.

"That would be the best. The Queen Mother mentioned your marriage before. Now you should find a daughter of a reliable family to marry."

He did not say anything and simply treated His Majesty's urging of marriage with indifference.

But His Majesty would not let him off like that. "I noticed your eyes were fixed on the people in the General's Mansion today. What's the matter? Which girl in the General's Mansion has you taken a fancy to?"

"Your Majesty is joking."

He didn't say it explicitly, and the affectionate gaze was retracted again.

But after hearing His Majesty's words, Fu Hengyue's eyes showed a hint of shyness.

When the old lady saw this, she lowered her voice and asked her daughter, "Why? Yue'er, do you like him?"

Chi Mu's reputation spread far and wide. The young men in the capital regarded her as their ancestor, and the women in the capital naturally regarded her as their sweetheart.

Fu Hengyue nodded, "The general is brave and heroic, so naturally he has always been the sweetheart of the women in the capital."

She was a little shy, looked at him with admiration in her eyes, and lowered her head again.

Shen Yuerong's mouth twitched when she heard Fu Hengyue's thoughts.

He is just a teenager and he is already thinking about getting married.

She did not speak, but Fu Hengyu, who was sitting next to him, looked at her and lowered his voice, "If we can marry the prince, it will be more beneficial to the general's mansion in the future. Can you tell His Majesty..."

"The General wants me to say it?"

Shen Yuerong pointed at herself and then approached him. "Who am I to talk to His Majesty and the Prince? Besides, our Yue'er is still young, I'm afraid she hasn't reached the age yet..."

"Rong'er."

He interrupted Shen Yuerong directly, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.

"I noticed that the prince has never taken his eyes away from us since the banquet started. I think he is interested in our Yue'er, but I don't know how to ask. As her sister-in-law, you should also worry about her marriage."

As soon as Shen Yuerong looked up, she saw the greed in his eyes. As expected...what he really wanted was for the General's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion to be on the same level.

"Does Your Majesty really think so?"
