Chapter 65 The Expedition



Mo Feng hurriedly shook his head, then said with delight, "Your Highness is truly wise. You knew long ago that the Princess Consort possessed such great abilities. We were all so foolish."

He said that the reason why the prince treated the princess so well was because his prince was so farsighted and knew all along that the princess was not a fool.

It seems the world is blind, mistaking a pearl for a fish eye; only the prince could see that the princess was extraordinary.

Now it seems that the princess and the prince are a perfect match.

"My queen is naturally the most capable, but this matter should not be revealed for the time being. If anyone investigates, just point the clues to Divine Doctor Valley. There is no need to worry about anything else. Also, send a group of secret guards to protect Divine Doctor Valley and the General's Mansion in secret."

"Your Highness, doesn't the General's Mansion already have secret guards? Why send more?" Mo Feng was shocked. Even if Your Highness dotes on the Princess Consort, this is the kind of way you should dote on her.

Half of the secret guards they trained ended up as watchdogs for the general's mansion.

Mo Beichen gave Mo Feng a cold look. Mo Feng, realizing he had overstepped his bounds, quietly agreed and left.

Mo Beichen looked at the medicinal herbs filling the room, a hint of pleasure in his eyes.

His treasures have always been precious, but the world is blind to them.

But it's good that she's blind; she can only belong to him now.

After returning to her room, Yun Qingluo called Yun Tao over and said, "Yun Tao, quickly send a message to Yun Li and Yun Ju. I don't have a deep understanding of poisons. Tell Yun Ju to have her people concoct more poisons, and make sure there are antidotes."

Yunju loves to create poisons that even she can't cure.

"By the way, have Yunli prepare some medicine for the battlefield. I will send a batch of medicine to Shenyi Valley in three days, and we will send it to the battlefield together with the medicine to give to the prince."

Yun Tao responded softly, then turned and left.

Yun Qingluo lay exhausted on the bed. She had been fighting tirelessly for the past few days, and was already physically and mentally exhausted. She was only keeping herself energized with medication.

The door was pushed open again.

Yun Qinglu frowned and said impatiently, "Didn't I say not to disturb me?"

A soft laugh rang out. Yun Qingluo turned her head and looked over, surprised. "Achen, what brings you here?"

Shouldn't he be preparing for the expedition right now?

Mo Beichen sat down on the edge of the bed, pulled Yun Qingluo up, and let her lean against his chest, then reached out to massage her arms.

"You must be exhausted?" Mo Beichen's eyes were filled with concern.

Yun Qingluo felt a warmth in her heart; she had tried to disguise herself, but he had still found out.

"It's alright, I'm only tired for a short time. When you go to the battlefield, I'll have plenty of time to rest." Yun Qinglu shook her head to indicate that she was fine.

"Luo Luo, I might be gone for a year or two." Mo Beichen looked at Yun Qingluo seriously.

Yun Qinglu pouted unhappily and said, "Hmph, I already said I'd go with you, but you won't let me."

Mo Beichen reached out and gently pinched her nose, a smile playing on his lips. "Luo Luo has more important things to do."

Yun Qinglu glared at him, "Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of the Empress Dowager."

Mo Beichen lowered his gaze, his eyes filled with doting affection, "Don't overwork yourself. After I leave, don't let yourself be wronged. Take your bodyguards with you when you go out, and don't allow yourself to be wronged..."

Seeing that Mo Beichen still wanted to remind her, Yun Qingluo tilted her head back and kissed Mo Beichen's thin lips.

Both of them froze at the same time. A hint of shyness flashed in Yun Qingluo's eyes, which made Mo Beichen's belly burn with lust.

"Luo Luo, so proactive?" Mo Beichen chuckled and gently touched Yun Qingluo's earlobe.

Yun Qingluo was annoyed and embarrassed; she just found him too nagging.

The next day, when Yun Qingluo woke up, Mo Beichen had already left.

Yun Qingluo panicked. "Yun Tao, where is the Prince?"

Yun Tao opened the door and came in, whispering, "Your Highness, why did you wake up so early? The Prince said not to disturb your sleep."

Yun Qingluo hurriedly asked, "Is the Prince going to war today?"

Yun Tao was surprised, "Your Highness, how did you know?"

This matter has been kept from the princess, and since the princess spends all her time in the pharmacy, she is completely unaware of the outside world.

Seeing that Yun Qingluo was unhappy, Yun Tao explained, "His Highness didn't want to cause you any more pain from parting. Your Highness, please don't be sad. You'll surely see His Highness again at the city gate now."

Yun Qingluo hurriedly put on her clothes and ran out, "Your Highness, please slow down."

At the city gate, the army had already set off when suddenly a shout rang out:

"Ah Chen!"

Mo Beichen, sitting on his tall horse, froze and turned to see a beautiful figure galloping towards him.

Mo Beichen's eyes darkened slightly, and he turned to his deputy general, saying, "Take the army and leave first. I will come later."

Deputy General Du Sheng responded in a low voice, then turned and led the army to continue forward.

Mo Beichen couldn't wait and immediately flew down towards Yun Qingluo.

Upon reaching her, he looked at Yun Qingluo's face, flushed from running, and said in a deep voice, "Why are you running? I'll always be back."

Yun Qingluo said aggrievedly, "You left without saying goodbye, that's so unreasonable."

Looking at that aggrieved little face, Mo Beichen felt even more reluctant to part with her.

He should have left sooner, otherwise he wouldn't be suffering like this now.

However, seeing that aggrieved little face, Mo Beichen didn't dare to say anything more.

Seeing that Mo Beichen remained silent, and noticing that the army had already traveled some distance, Yun Qingluo left his embrace and said:

"Ah Chen, I brought you this. It's all your fault. You wouldn't let me go last night, and I had completely forgotten about it."

Yun Qingluo took out a medicine bottle from her sleeve. "This is a secret medicine from the Valley of Divine Physicians. There are only ten pills. It can be used when life is in danger to save your life."

Mo Beichen took it and whispered a guarantee, "Luo Luo, don't worry, I will definitely return safely."

Yun Qingluo gave him a few more instructions, and Mo Beichen suddenly burst out laughing. Yun Qingluo looked up at him and asked in confusion, "What are you laughing at?"

Mo Beichen said, "Last night Luo Luo complained that I was nagging. Now the nagging person has changed, but I can't shut you up."

Seeing that he was still in the mood to joke, Yun Qinglu glared at him, and her sorrow at parting lessened a bit.

"Go quickly, they've all gone far away. Take good care of yourself. I know it's inconvenient to write letters, and you don't need to write to me. I'll wait for your triumphant return."

"Okay, Luo Luo, don't worry, I will definitely return safely."

After Mo Beichen finished speaking, he looked at her deeply, as if trying to etch her image into his mind.

He then turned around, nimbly mounted his horse, and rode away.

He dared not turn back, afraid that if he looked at her again, he would want to take her away without a second thought.

Yun Qingluo stared at her general's departing figure.

Silently, I prayed: Ah Chen, I'm waiting for your safe return.

Xiao Yi snorted coldly and said irritably, "You went to great lengths to dig out your heart's blood to make this life-saving pill, so you'll need to recuperate for a while."

Yun Qingluo watched the figure disappear at the end of the official road and smiled slightly, "Xiao Yi, there are only a few people I care about, and I don't want to lose any of them."

"Besides, aren't you here? Look, even after using your medicine, A-Chen didn't notice anything amiss," Yun Qingluo praised.

Xiao Yi said arrogantly, "That doesn't even take into account who developed the medicine."

"Yes, yes, you're the best, so with you here, I'm not afraid of not recovering well." Yun Qingluo nodded repeatedly.
