A lot of things happened overnight. After Zhao Xuanyin came back, the people in the palace immediately started to move. Everyone began to pack up their things, walking hurriedly with solemn expressions.
Wen Liyu and her six children surrounded Zhao Xuanyin, "What happened?"
Zhao Xuanyin's beautiful peach blossom eyes were dim and only lit up slightly when she saw Wen Liyu.
He opened his arms and hugged her tightly, his voice hoarse and almost silent, "Xiaoyu..."
Wen Liyu hugged him back, stroking his back quietly and soothing him, "I'm here."
"Daddy..." Zhao Dabao and his five children came over worriedly, and the family hugged each other.
Wen Liyu felt a wet sensation on her shoulders and neck, but she didn't say anything, just hugged him tighter.
"I'm going to the frontier."
Zhao Xuanyin raised his eyes, which were bloodshot and gleaming with hatred. He said firmly, "The border is in chaos. I have lived in peace for so many years. It is time to fulfill my duties."
He pursed his lips and lowered his eyes cautiously, "Xiaoyu, will you... wait for me to come back?"
Wen Liyu didn't answer him immediately, but shook her head gently.
The light in Zhao Xuanyin's eyes flickered with her movements. The gloomy aura that had been suppressed after marriage was about to emerge, and his eyes became more fierce.
Wen Liyu raised her hand, pinched his mouth, and said firmly, "I won't wait for you."
The children who were holding their father's calves and thighs looked at each other, and looked up at the adults nervously and confusedly.
"Brother, are Daddy and Mommy arguing?" Sibao asked in what he thought was a low voice.
Dabao nervously raised his hand to cover Sibao's mouth, "Shh, you see through it but won't tell me, you little idiot!"
Zhao Xuanyin's body was stiff and straight, various emotions flashed through his eyes, but he couldn't speak because his mouth was pinched.
The funny thing is that even though he was about to be abandoned, he still couldn't bear to do anything to Xiaoyu.
If he were more cruel, he would lock Xiaoyu up until he returned from the border.
But he... couldn't bear to do it.
Wen Liyu didn't want to see him sad, so she said something naughty and said in a firm tone, "I want to go with you."
Zhao Xuanyin widened his eyes in disbelief, "Hmm!"
All the dark thoughts in my heart disappeared with her words.
Wen Liyu released his lips, smiled and kissed him, "Sorry, I won't tease you anymore."
"Xiaoyu, please don't do this again in the future, okay?" Zhao Xuanyin hugged her back helplessly and wanted to lower his head to kiss her back, but his mouth was covered again.
Wen Liyu pointed down with a shy look. Zhao Xuanyin looked down in confusion, "..."
Just now, when Wen Liyu leaned over to kiss her, Zhao Dabao and the other babies tilted their heads and watched with great interest.
Even when they were caught peeking, they still blinked their big innocent eyes.
"Kiss, kiss!"
"It's time for Daddy to kiss you."
"Daddy, kiss me! If you don't kiss me, I will kiss you!"
"I want a kiss, too."
Before Dabao and the others could take a few more glances, the servants hurriedly carried him away with red faces.
Finally, Wen Liyu's family, including Wen's father and mother, rushed to the border in a mighty manner.
Because the journey was too long and time was urgent, Zhao Xuanyin and Wen's father set out with the vanguard troops, while Wen Liyu followed Wen's mother and walked slowly towards the border.
They were surrounded by Zhao Xuanyin's secret guards and Wen Xiuye's personal guards. They felt very safe and peaceful under the protection.
When Zhao Xuanyin and his men arrived, the enemy army had already reached the last city on the border.
Wen Xiuye was experienced and issued orders faster than Zhao Xuanyin. He worked together with the people in the city to temporarily repel the enemy army.
Before Zhao Xuanyin had time to greet the generals stationed at the border, he was led to a room by a tearful eunuch.
He was still wearing armor, and the gleaming silver armor was covered in blood stains, like ink splashes.
As soon as Zhao Xuanyin entered the room, he smelled a strong scent of herbs, a smell of blood, and a hint of dusk.
"Brother...you're here." Zhao Xuanyi was helped by the eunuch to sit up from the bed. His face was pale and bloodless, and he coughed every time he spoke.
Zhao Xuanyin walked to his side, supported him with a stern face, and felt the weakness and thinness of the person in his arms, his eyes turned red.
"Brother, why are you... still the same as before." Zhao Xuanyi lowered his head, coughing and laughing.
He always knew that his brother seemed cold, hard and heartless, but in fact he was the softest-hearted one.
In fact, Zhao Xuanyi had known for a long time that his brother also liked Wen Liyu, but he took advantage of his brother's soft-heartedness and ignored his brother's feelings again and again, covering his eyes and pretending not to know.
"Stop talking." Zhao Xuanyin said coldly, took out a pill from his arms and wanted to stuff it into his mouth.
Zhao Xuanyi turned his head and dodged with difficulty, "This was given by... Yu'er, right?"
"Yeah." Zhao Xuanyin responded in a deep voice.
"Brother, do you know now?" Zhao Xuanyi suddenly said something without any context.
Zhao Xuanyin's eyes flickered slightly, and after a while he responded in a deep voice, "Yes."
The two of them have a telepathic connection, and not only can they share the same dreams, but they can also share their thoughts and ideas.
Before Zhao Xuanyin got married, they both knew that Xiaoyu was not Xiaoyu.
Zhao Xuanyin was confused, but he still listened to his heart and admitted that he fell in love with Xiaoyu.
His previous admiration for Wen Liyu was more of youthful resentment and regret.
The reason why Zhao Xuanyi knew this was because he had a dream on the third day after he recovered from his illness.
The dream was completely different from now. He married Xiaoyu, but betrayed her.
