Chapter 167 The Little Queen Whose Wife Was Taken Away by the King (34)
However, in this charming atmosphere, Qingwu keenly noticed that the man's mood seemed a little strange.
She paused slightly, stopped what she was doing, looked seriously at the man's handsome face, and asked softly, "What happened?"
The hot lips and tongue stopped temporarily, Huo Tingye raised his head and stared at his wife in front of him.
At this moment, her eyes were filled with his figure.
Once upon a time, whenever he saw such an affectionate look, his whole body would feel numb as if he had been electrocuted, and the love in his heart would surge like a tide.
"Awu, I'm going to the battle." Huo Tingye spoke slowly, his voice low and solemn.
In recent years, because he has not guarded the border, the barbarians in the north have become more and more wanton, and their invasions of the border areas have become increasingly serious.
"Just now in the court, His Majesty has issued an order, ordering me to go to the frontier to garrison. This time, we must defeat the invading enemy in one fell swoop and defend the territory and dignity of our Great Xia!"
Qingwu's eyebrows jumped suddenly, and a hint of just the right amount of worry instantly appeared on her originally pretty face.
She quickly asked, "Just now? Then when are you leaving?"
Huo Tingye paused for a moment before answering, "Three days later."
"So fast?" Qing Wu couldn't help but exclaimed, her beautiful eyes wide open, full of astonishment.
"Indeed. I heard that the fighting on the front lines is intense and the situation is extremely critical. We can no longer afford to lose any time."
A barely perceptible hint of coldness flashed across the depths of Huo Tingye's eyes.
At the morning court session, Xia Lingxiao, the supreme ruler, told him in front of all the civil and military officials about the repeated invasions of Great Xia by enemies on the border.
He was ordered to pack up and set out quickly to repel the enemy and protect Daxia.
Looking back at Xia Lingxiao at that time, his brows were deep, revealing a chilling calmness and determination, and the aura of a king who could dominate the world had already matured.
As a subject, Huo Tingye could not disobey the king's orders, not to mention that resisting foreign invasion and defending his country was his unshirkable mission.
only......
In recent years, the fairy-like life he and Qingwu had lived together made him reluctant to leave.
But he also knew in his heart that such a peaceful and beautiful time would be broken one day.
As expected, Xia Lingxiao emphasized, "This journey to the border is extremely dangerous. General Huo shoulders a heavy responsibility and must not be burdened by excessive personal affection. As for your virtuous wife and elderly widowed mother, the court will ensure their safety."
After saying that, Xia Lingxiao narrowed his eyes slightly and stared coldly at Huo Tingye who was standing below.
At that time, Huo Tingye was extremely rebellious. He looked directly at Xia Lingxiao, who was sitting on the dragon throne, without fear, with an almost rebellious attitude.
When their eyes met, invisible sparks seemed to fly.
The irresistible coldness in Xia Lingxiao's eyes was like a sharp dagger piercing one's heart, and he made no effort to conceal the deep meaning contained within.
I just want you to stay away from the capital and leave Awu, what can you do?
Protect.
Haha, the imperial court's protection, or Xia Lingxiao's protection?
His Awu...
Faced with such blatant threats and provocations, Huo Tingye clenched his fists tightly.
But—he could do nothing about it.
In the face of the righteousness of family and country, everything else seems to become insignificant, and only Qingwu's life and safety is the top priority.
Even without Xia Lingxiao telling him, he really couldn't take Qingwu to the border. If something happened, it would really cost him his life.
Staying in the capital, at least Qingwu is safe.
However, this way, it would be out of reach. After he left the capital and headed for the frontier—
By then, it will be clear what Xia Lingxiao will do.
After all, they knew each other too well. Xia Lingxiao's domineering control over imperial power and his innate arrogance made it impossible for anyone to go against his will.
And as long as it is something he desires, he will do whatever it takes to get it.
Ethics and morals? They can't restrain him at all.
Put yourself in his shoes and think about it. If he had met Qingwu, who was already married, then perhaps...
He may also lose control of himself and do something shocking and contrary to common sense and morality.
With such complicated thoughts in mind, Huo Tingye slowly turned around and walked towards the general's mansion.
He was so absorbed in his thoughts that he was completely unaware that Xia Lingxiao's icy and meaningful gaze was fixed on him from behind.
——He has been suppressed for too long and is almost going crazy.
God knows how painful it was for him to watch Qing Wu and Huo Tingye become the most famous couple in the capital over the years, inseparable and always together.
In his dreams day and night, he and Qingwu were entangled in love.
In reality, Qingwu is someone else's wife and is very affectionate towards him.
It was obvious that Qingwu belonged to him in the previous life!
How could he allow that?!
......
Qing Wu also knew that Huo Tingye must be very confused at this moment, but she had no intention of going to the border to suffer.
After all, she chose to marry into the Huo family in order to live a stable and prosperous life.
The time is almost up...
Xia Lingxiao's desire for her must have reached its peak at this moment, right?
——Qingwu raised her head slightly, opened her red lips, and slowly pressed them against Huo Tingye's thin lips, almost melting Huo Tingye.
"Husband, let Awu give birth to a child for you."
Huo Tingye was stunned, his heart beating wildly uncontrollably.
In fact, in the past few years, Huo Tingye has always been worried that Qingwu is still young and if she becomes a mother too early, it might harm her body.
After telling Mrs. Huo everything frankly, Mrs. Huo showed great tolerance and understanding.
Even if there are people outside talking about this matter and gossiping, Mrs. Huo will be the first to stand up and refute it.
The saying "a daughter of a general's family is a tiger" is not for nothing.
The Bihuo family themselves didn't care about it, so naturally the bystanders didn't dare to say anything more.
But Huo Huo Tingye longed for it in his heart.
He longed to have a child with Qingwu's blood.
Because that will be the most beautiful testimony of their love and the inseparable emotional bond between the two.
Huo Tingye lost control in excitement.
All the words I had thought of were shattered in my mind.
Only a piece of smooth jade skin remained around her mouth.
"Awu, I only have three days, so we have to work hard."
Just like that, for the next three days, General Huo and his wife in the Huo Mansion never stepped out of the room.
