General Hua has always been a very cautious person. He would keep such an important thing as the defense map safe and put it away where no one else could find it unless there was something else going on.
He felt there was no need to release the defense map when it wasn't needed, as there was a certain risk involved. The defense map was too important for a country to keep safe.
Fortunately, I have a cautious personality, otherwise I don't know what I would be going through now. That bastard son abandoned such a good wife and actually fell in love with a spy.
Actually, he really liked Wan Ge. He used to be a very good friend of Zhong Yong Hou. He hadn't gone to see Wan Ge since the engagement was broken off because he felt ashamed to see him or his brother.
But seeing what her son had done, although it was a pity to lose such a daughter-in-law, she also felt that it was really good for Wan Ge not to be with her son.
The fact that a man who couldn't even distinguish a spy from his son was a stroke of luck for him.
…
Hua Xun was forced to kneel in the ancestral hall as punishment, his mind filled with Wan Ge's sincerity towards him and Yan Xiao's hypocrisy.
It turns out that the act of saving me was fake, and all those words were fake. The person I thought was a true friend and understanding confidant was nothing but a lie.
In fact, because he had learned of Wan Ge's true feelings for him, Hua Xun had always felt extremely guilty towards her, and his heart was constantly wavering. Every night, he would think of the extremely beautiful time they spent together when they were young.
They were childhood sweethearts, inseparable, and sometimes their relationship was incredibly close. But now! He has destroyed everything with his own hands; he has hurt the person who loved him the most.
Hua Xun couldn't help but laugh when he thought about what happened when he was a child, but as he laughed, he cried again, filled with countless regrets. But it was too late for regrets.
Thinking of Wan Ge's resolute turn, perhaps they really have no chance to go back to the past.
…
While Hua Xun was filled with regret, Wan Ge had just finished washing up when she saw Ye Chenzhou, the man who should have been in the palace, appearing in her boudoir.
"Your Majesty's late-night visit is hardly the behavior of a gentleman."
With a faint smile on his lips, Ye Chenzhou looked at the person he loved before him and slowly said, "I was never exactly a gentleman."
Otherwise, the other person wouldn't be pregnant with your child right now.
Actually, he was also a little worried. He was worried that what they were doing would be discovered, and that Wan Ge's reputation would be damaged. But... he was also afraid that if he didn't do these things, the person he liked might belong to someone else.
He doesn't regret it at all, but he still worries about the impact on the reputation of his loved one.
Ye Chenzhou held the person he loved and gently said, "I heard you threw up today. Are you feeling unwell since you got pregnant?"
At this point, Ye Chenzhou took out another exquisite box, which contained some delicious-looking fruits.
“These are all tribute fruits. I asked the imperial physician, and he said that eating more fruit is good for your health, and there are probably many fruits that you don’t like to eat right now.”
Wan Ge touched the other person's face and nodded at his serious expression.
Ye Chenzhou's beautiful eyes met hers, seemingly with a hint of doubt. Wan Ge kissed him on the forehead.
"It's so good to have you." Wan Ge's eyes crinkled with a smile, and Ye Chenzhou's heart skipped a beat. He was overjoyed to hear her say that.
She said it's great to have him, so she likes him too, right?
Perhaps it was because of the comparison with Hua Xun, or perhaps they had really been through too much together, that Wan Ge made such a remark.
"I think so too, it's so good to have you." Ye Chenzhou was very fortunate, very fortunate to have met her at this time, and very fortunate that he hadn't missed her.
It's both heartbreaking and fortunate that Hua Xun was fickle and abandoned someone who once liked him.
…
The next morning, Hua Xun limped back to his room to rest, but then he sensed movement next door. He immediately became alert and realized that the noise came from Wan Ge's courtyard. His alarm went off instantly, and he gave chase.
When they chased him into a small alley, he saw a familiar person standing in front of him, and his expression changed slightly.
Ye Chenzhou had already noticed the other person when they were chasing him, but he deliberately stopped.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing here? You just..."
Ye Chenzhou glanced at the other party indifferently and then slowly said, "I'm going to see my Empress. Does the young general have any objections?"
"Your Majesty, I dare not, but why did you..." As the ruler of a country, how could you climb over the wall? And now that the other party is here so early in the morning, when did he go there?
"What I do is none of your business," Ye Chenzhou said, as if it had nothing to do with him, but his expression said otherwise, as if to say: So what if it is what you think?
"Your Majesty, as the ruler of a country, wouldn't doing this ruin the young lady's reputation?"
Ye Chenzhou sneered: "She is my empress, and we are about to get married. It is perfectly reasonable for me to go see her. On the contrary, little general, what right and what position do you have to question me?"
Ye Chenzhou snorted coldly and ignored what the other person was thinking. He walked right past him without paying any attention to him.
…
…
Unexpectedly, before the outcome of Yan Xiao's case was announced, the enemy country quickly sent an envoy.
