Xi Wujue! Han Luoxue gritted her teeth as she chewed on the name.
If she had known this person would cause trouble, she would have killed him without hesitation.
"Xue'er, you see, it's understandable that the Emperor didn't tell you; you'd get anxious if you heard! The Emperor has already sent people to investigate, and if he has any definite news, he will definitely tell you!"
The old lady comforted her, but Han Luoxue's voice trembled: "Grandmother, is the Emperor preparing to personally lead the expedition?"
If Ouyang Zhen didn't want to go there in person, why would he have transferred the old general to the capital?
"This... His Majesty didn't say anything either, so I don't know the specifics!" In fact, the old lady also had this idea. Ouyang Zhen was quite familiar with Xishu, and if he went there, it would definitely be much more efficient.
"I see!"
Han Luoxue lowered her head. Although there was no definite news, a bad feeling spread in her heart. She felt that it was very likely that her younger brother and sister were in Xi Wujue's hands!
That damned Xi Wu Wu Jue, she should have killed her with one blow back then!
It's all the old emperor's fault! And that beast Ouyang Fu too!
Even though he was already dead, Han Luoxue wished she could grind Ouyang Fu to dust!
"Alright, don't be angry. Even if it's true, those three will be fine. Think about it, they took the person over there to threaten us. They haven't sent any messages yet, so maybe they haven't even taken the person over yet!"
"Any news is good news for us!"
Han Luoxue nodded, her biggest fear being unable to find any news about the three children.
After eating a few bites of food, Han Luoxue forgot all about Tiger Brother.
After returning to the palace, she was still thinking about the possibility that Ouyang Zhen might personally lead the expedition.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, the Emperor may not go there in person!"
Seeing that Han Luoxue was sullen, Nightingale took it upon herself to bring the two children over.
Seeing the two children's innocent smiles made Han Luoxue feel much better.
Now that things in the palace have been mostly resolved, those ministers won't bring up the matter of the emperor establishing a concubine anytime soon.
After all, that bet was widely acknowledged by everyone.
Even if they're unwilling to accept defeat, there's nothing they can do.
If the Emperor were to personally lead the expedition, Han Luoxue would like to go with him.
She was going to bring all the tigers with her. These big guys could be a deadly weapon in a critical moment.
And then there's the Western Yao Kingdom. They've been causing trouble more than once or twice. This time, we must go there and solve the problem once and for all!
"Hmph," Han Luoxue snorted coldly. Once she and Ouyang Zhen arrived, they would march directly to their palace.
She still has quite a few warhorses in her space. With this equipment, what is there to fear from them?
When Ouyang Zhen came over that evening, Han Luoxue said she was going to the fiefdom.
Ouyang Zhen was still confused: "You won't be back for a day, Xue'er, why are you suddenly going there again?"
"I want to go see Aunt Tiger and the others!"
Han Luoxue spoke softly, and Ouyang Zhen's expression changed: "Xue'er, you..."
Since they returned to the capital, Han Luoxue has left Aunt Hu and the others in the mountains and forests, and hasn't gone to visit them for so long.
Now that she suddenly wants to go there, Ouyang Zhen feels a vague unease.
"I went to my maternal grandmother's house today!"
Han Luoxue sighed and looked deeply into Ouyang Zhen's eyes: "Brother Chen, I know you're doing this for my own good, but I don't want you to keep this from me. You're my younger brother and sister, and I want to know whether there's news or not!"
Ouyang Zhen sighed: "Xue'er, I'm sorry, I didn't think it through!"
"I was just thinking that since there was still no news from over there, I suspected it might have been done by Xi Wujue. But don't worry, the search efforts in Yancheng haven't been relaxed either."
Han Luoxue hugged Ouyang Zhen tightly, her nose tingling and tears welling up in her eyes: "Brother Chen, I'm not angry, I'm just heartbroken! You're so busy every day, and you still have to help me with things!"
"Silly girl, they are my younger brother and sister too!"
Ouyang Zhen took a deep breath, his eyes deep and unfathomable: "After my maternal grandfather arrives in the capital, he will make the necessary arrangements, and then I will prepare to go to the western border."
"That Xi Wujue is so arrogant, this time I will go and completely subdue him!"
It's like a rat in a sewer, always running out to disgust people.
In the past, the old emperor kept Ouyang Zhen in check, preventing him from acting as he pleased. Now that he is the emperor himself, why should he be afraid of that rat?
"Okay! I'll go with you!"
Han Luoxue raised her head, her eyes sparkling. She hugged Ouyang Zhen's strong waist tightly.
Ouyang Zhen stiffened, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Xue'er, you shouldn't go. Mengmeng and Zhuangzhuang are too young, and we can't possibly take them with us. We don't know how long this fight will last, so..."
"Besides, I'm not in the capital, so I need you to keep an eye on things in the palace!"
Han Luoxue understood this principle, but she couldn't rest easy.
"I'll bring Aunt Hu and the others along; they might come in handy at a crucial moment. Also, don't forget, I have many warhorses here. What will happen to them if I don't go?"
"Brother Chen, don't worry, I'll take good care of myself!"
Looking into Han Luoxue's bright eyes, how could Ouyang Zhen possibly refuse?
"Okay, but you should also be careful; your own safety is the most important thing!"
Han Luoxue nodded vigorously: "I know. Besides, I still have you, right? I believe you'll protect me if you're by my side!"
“You…” Ouyang Zhen affectionately pinched Han Luoxue’s nose and then picked her up in a princess carry.
"Ah, Brother Chen..."
"It's getting late. Aren't you going to Le'an Town tomorrow? You won't be back for several days. You have to make it up to me tonight!"
Han Luoxue... Chen-gege wasn't like this before, but she still likes him very much. What should she do?
Han Luoxue didn't sleep a wink all night, and only fell into a deep sleep as dawn was approaching.
When she woke up, it was almost noon. Han Luoxue irritably tugged at her hair, and Nightingale came in to serve her: "Your Highness, please stop tugging. Aren't you afraid of pulling all your hair out?"
Han Luoxue... that's really hurtful!
"Nightingale, why didn't you wake me up?"
She had promised to go to Le'an Town today, and she wanted to get up early and get there as soon as possible.
I should be able to come back tomorrow or the day after.
"His Majesty told me not to wake you..."
Han Luoxue's face turned red. Last night, the two of them were so shameless and unrestrained. Who knows what the people below are saying!
"Where are Zhuangzhuang and Mengmeng?"
Han Luoxue was a little unaccustomed to not seeing her two children when she woke up early in the morning.
"The Empress Dowager's people have already come and taken it away!"
