Xiao Lichen, who had just picked up the chopsticks, tightened his grip.
[The first time Prince Yong and the Princess met, surprisingly, was in the Northern Frontier, just like my parents. At that time, the war with the northern barbarians was in full swing.]
The prince was very young. To gain experience, he secretly went to the border without telling the late emperor or the current emperor. After disguising himself, he successfully joined the cavalry battalion as a soldier. The Duke of Zhuguo was the general of the northern border at the time.
As the eldest daughter of the Duke of Zhuguo, the Princess Princess disguised herself as a man at the time. Unconventional, she became a highly skilled scout.
[Indeed, she chose the most dangerous scout. The princess has lived on the border for many years and is not only fluent in the northern barbarian language, but also in the foreign languages of more than a dozen small countries in the Western Regions.]
[It was precisely because of her proficiency in multiple languages and her good skills that she was a scout on the front lines of the battlefield before marrying Prince Yong.]
[Once, the Northern Barbarians launched a war. Han Linfeng, the eldest son of the Duke of Youzhu, led his troops to fight, but he fell into the trap of the Northern Barbarians and was surrounded in a military stronghold, making it difficult for him to break out.
The cavalry battalion was divided into several forces by the Duke of Zhuguo, who planned to disperse and defeat the northern barbarian army. The princess, as a scout, went out first and went out in the middle of the night to inquire about the news from the front line, but was unfortunately captured.
The leader of the cavalry team at that time was Prince Yong. He used the pseudonym Xiao Yi. When he found out that the scouts of his team had not returned after going to inquire about the news, he secretly thought that something was wrong. After making a plan with his cavalry team, he went to the northern barbarian camp alone to inquire about the news. In a tent, he found the seriously injured and tied-up princess.
It was only when Prince Yong was bandaging her wounds that he realized she was a woman.
[When they met this time, they both disguised themselves and considered each other's first love. After the war, for some reason, they did not remove their disguises in time. After returning to Beijing, the two were married by the late emperor and tied together. They did not recognize each other.
Just like that, in their hearts, the person they wanted to accompany their whole lives was actually the one in disguise...】
They have been looking for each other for years...
Xiao Lichen felt complicated after hearing about his parents' first meeting.
Unexpectedly, when his parents were young, they, like the general and his wife, had experienced the hardships of war.
When they were young, they rushed to the battlefield for the sake of this country, regardless of life and death, relying on their own abilities and passion.
However, when he thought about how his mother had been thrown into the backyard by his father, Prince Yong, for so many years and had been ignored and allowed to be bullied by his father's concubines in front of his seriously ill mother, his face turned pale.
Tao Yuwei noticed that Xiao Lichen, who was sitting opposite her, looked strange, and stopped to think.
"Prince Xiao, what's wrong with you?"
After hearing about his parents' past, Xiao Lichen lost all appetite.
"Mom, you guys eat. I have something else to do. I'll go to the study first."
Xiao Lichen signaled to the guards behind him to push his wheelchair and leave the room.
Han Lingyun said seriously to his son's back, "If you're hungry, remember to ask the kitchen to make you something to eat."
Seeing him leave, Tao Yuwei didn't think much about it.
After eating for a while, she felt that she had had enough and put down her chopsticks.
Princess Yong chatted with her for a while, all about food.
Prince Yong sat aside, eating silently without disturbing anyone.
After eating the fruit, Tao Yuwei felt a little sleepy, so she said goodbye to Princess Yong.
Han Lingyun personally sent her to the gate of the mansion.
The two stood at the door and chatted for a while, and Tao Yuwei took out a bottle of pleasant-smelling perfume and gave it to her.
Prince Yong also followed him to the gate of the mansion.
Seeing that Tao Yuwei was about to leave and still holding his wife's hand, Prince Yong couldn't help but say something to her.
"Ugly girl, it's getting late, we should go back."
Prince Yong's words completely angered Tao Yuwei who was about to leave.
"My Lady Princess, I heard that Prince Yong has been hiding someone in his heart. I don't know if it's true or not. It's best for you to stay away from a man like him who only wants to have his cake and eat it too."
She is obviously very beautiful, okay? If anyone dares to say she is ugly, then she should let his white moonlight stay away from him.
Before leaving, I wanted to tell the princess that the Xiao Yi in her mind was the one in front of her, but he was narrow-minded and had too many women in the harem.
What's good about it? The princess is doing well now and is not obsessed with feelings. So forget it. She won't interfere in the relationship between other couples.
After Tao Yuwei finished speaking, she jumped into her own carriage swiftly, lifted the curtain and waved goodbye to Princess Yong.
The angry Prince Yong domineeringly took the hand of the Princess Yong and stared at the carriage of the General's Mansion with cold eyes.
There were two personal maids, each holding an exquisite box in her hand. These two boxes were return gifts from Princess Yong.
Tao Yuwei was so sleepy that she fell asleep in the carriage.
Inside Prince Yong's Mansion.
Han Lingyun shook off her husband's big hand and turned to go to her son's study.
Prince Yong followed behind him, unwilling to leave.
Arriving outside Xiao Lichen's study, Han Lingyun asked the guard at the door.
"Is the prince still busy now?"
Just as the guard was about to answer, he heard a cold voice coming from inside the window.
"Mom, if you have anything to say, please come in and tell me."
Han Lingyun stepped into the room.
Prince Yong Xiao Deyi, who was chasing after him, also wanted to go in, but was stopped by the guard Qingzhu.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince and the Princess have something to discuss, you cannot go in."
Xiao Deyi's face looked very unhappy.
The entire palace belongs to me, and I can go wherever I want.
He had just taken a step forward when he was stopped by Qingzhu again.
In the study.
Han Lingyun saw his son sitting at the table, dealing with a pile of official business.
"Chen'er, what's the status of your grandfather's case?"
She chose an armchair in the room and sat down.
Xiao Lichen stopped writing and thought for a moment, "There are some clues, mother. In a few days, the truth will be revealed. Please be patient and wait."
Upon hearing this good news, Han Lingyun's eyes turned red with excitement.
"Okay, Mom believes in you. I'll go make you a bowl of shredded chicken noodles to try. No matter how busy you are, you can't starve yourself."
Han Lingyun stood up and walked to the door. Just as she was about to open it, she stopped.
"Chen'er, can you use the Xiaoyu Guard to help me find someone?"
Xiao Lichen was already busy writing files. Without giving it much thought, he asked casually, "Mom, who are you looking for? What's their name?"
"His name is Xiao Yi. After justice is done for your grandfather and his family, I plan to divorce your father and go to live in the Northern Frontier."
After hearing this, Xiao Lichen's hand holding the pen shook uncontrollably, and a large amount of black ink dripped onto the document he was writing. The document was ruined and had to be rewritten.
