The general trend of the world is that after a long period of division, there will be unity; after a long period of unity, there will be division.

The empress patted her on the shoulder and then dismissed her.

…

Wan Ge returned to Yue Qiwan's place and, as usual, climbed the wall to look at him.

Yue Qiwan suddenly sensed something and looked up. When Wange instinctively wanted to leave, she suddenly remembered that the situation was different now, so she didn't leave.

Yue Qiwan looked at the person on the wall and slowly walked towards her: "General, please come down."

Wan Ge landed steadily on the ground, and seeing that the person in front of her was dressed in thin clothes, she tied a clean cloak around his shoulders: "It's getting late, Your Highness, please rest early. I will stay here and watch over Your Highness, and I will not let Your Highness get hurt, so please don't worry."

Yue Qiwan gently grasped her sleeve, looking at the person in front of him. He knew she would keep her word, but he still felt uneasy.

Wan Ge reached out and patted his head again, then escorted him back to his room and waited by the door.

When Yue Qiwan looked outside, she could see the figure guarding the door.

Yue Qiwan's palace attendants were overjoyed at the sight, wondering if the general and the prince would end up together.

Yue Qiwan took one of her slightly thicker coats and gave it to Wange, her ears turning red as she turned away.

Wan Ge held his clothes, a faint smile on her lips.

…

The assassins suffered heavy losses, presumably having gone all out to kill the Empress from the start. Now, with so many casualties, they dare not act rashly, so the rest of the journey was very peaceful.

We finally arrived at our destination safely.

On the night before the sacrificial ceremony, Wan Ge was still guarding the door of Yue Qi Wan's house. Suddenly, someone put a hand on her shoulder, and when she turned around, she saw the little princess—Yue Qi Meng.

Yue Qimeng looked at Wan Ge in front of her. They were friends when they were young, but she went to fight for ten years and they had no contact for ten years.

Actually, she had seen Yue Qiwan and Wan Ge interacting these past few days, and they seemed to get along quite well. "Wan Ge, I want to talk to you."

"What does Your Highness want?" Wan Ge didn't understand what this young princess wanted to do with her.

Yue Qimeng felt particularly guilty towards her younger brother after what happened back then. Seeing that he was willing to get close to Wan Ge, Yue Qimeng whispered something in her ear.

Wan Ge smiled faintly as she looked at Yue Qimeng before her, then gently shook her head.

When she saw that the other party refused, Yue Qimeng felt really uncomfortable because she felt that only Wan Ge could help her younger brother.

Wan Ge said to the woman in front of her, "I will try my best to help Your Highness resolve your inner conflict, but I do not want any reward."

But does she really have the ability to heal his wounds? All she can do is protect him and try her best to make him happy and fulfilled.

Yue Qimeng breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing what she said, and then added, "No matter what your conditions are in the future, I will agree to them."

If the other party has done their best, they will definitely fulfill what they have said.

Neither of them noticed that Yue Qiwan, standing not far away, was witnessing the entire scene.

Yue Qiwan silently turned and left, returning to her room, placing the pastries she had been holding on the table.

Yue Qiwan gently leaned on the table, thinking about everything Wange had done for her, all because she was a prince. Protecting him and being good to him was her mission.
