Rong Zhen put down the memorial in his hand. Gu Yunru stopped what she was doing, sat beside him, and took his hand and said, "The northwest is very wild. I heard that many generals led their troops there but were completely wiped out. The people there are brave and good at fighting, and they are also very domineering and despicable. I am afraid that if you go there this time..."
"Will there be any accidents?" Rong Zhen said it directly for her. Gu Yunru quickly put her finger to his lips and said anxiously: "Don't talk nonsense!"
"Oh? When I led the army to the battlefield before, you were not so anxious. What happened today?" Rong Zhen saw the panic in her expression at a glance. He slowly stroked the back of her hand, and seeing that she looked uneasy, he asked in a gentle voice.
"I... I don't miss my child. I can't wait for his father to come back." Gu Yunru made up her mind and blurted out, but her belly was not very big, so her belly was not obvious. When Rong Zhen heard her words, he was stunned and obviously in shock. Before he could come to his senses, he put his ear to her belly again, as if listening to the movement of the child.
"When did it happen?" Rong Zhen's eyes were filled with a gentle smile. Along with nervousness and excitement, Gu Yunru caressed his head lovingly and whispered, "A few days ago, I ate a lot, and my appetite suddenly increased. I checked my pulse and found that I was already more than two months pregnant."
Gu Yunru smiled softly. She was finally pregnant now. But Rong Zhen's expression suddenly became a little embarrassed. "But... the war in the northwest is tight. I have to lead the army to assist General Qin."
"But... didn't the emperor say that you don't have to lead the troops to the battlefield in person in the future? Why is it so sudden this time?" Gu Yunru had a bad feeling in her heart. If the order was issued suddenly, it meant that the war was very critical and there was a high possibility of death. In this case, she was even more unwilling to see Rong Zhen take risks.
"Yunru, the country is in trouble, I can't just sit back and watch. This child may very well be my blessing, and I will definitely return triumphantly." Rong Zhen stretched out his hand and held her in his arms. Gu Yunru's heart was pounding, and she always felt uneasy.
"A Zhao, you must come back. By the way, take this amulet with you." A few days ago, Gu Yunru and Shen Aojun went to Putuo Temple and asked for this amulet. She asked him to carry it with him, and it would surely bless him to return safely.
"Okay, I'll take the amulet. You must take good care of yourself, understand?" Rong Zhen said to her almost in an imperative tone. Gu Yunru thought about it for a long time but still couldn't say that sentence. If he was not around, how could she take care of herself? Rong Zhen gently kissed her forehead, looked at her with doting eyes, showed a gentle smile, and said softly: "No matter what, when you see this amulet, you will think of you and the child. I will definitely come back."
"Um."
Two days later, Gu Yunru sent him to the city gate, accompanied by Shen Aojun, Tingya and others.
Tingya knew that a pregnant woman would have all sorts of thoughts if the man wasn't around, so she said, "Yunru, why don't you come to my place these days?"
"No need for that. There are still many things in the mansion that need to be managed, and my period is not that long, so I can do everything myself."
Shen Aojun said at the side: "Although there are servants serving you, Tingya and I are worried that you will be bored alone."
"No, if you are really afraid that I will be bored, you should come to me more often to play Pai Gow." Gu Yunru thought it was time to relax. Managing so many account shop matters made her exhausted.
Several people went to Ruyi Inn to play Pai Gow. After half an incense stick of time, Tingya found that Gu Yunru and Shen Aojun were both unusually depressed. She couldn't help but piled the cards together and looked at them and said, "What's wrong with you two today? You both seem to be worried."
Shen Aojun's eyes flickered, and she said calmly, "You two already know about my affairs. Zijun suddenly changed his mind these days and told me to think it over and write a divorce letter."
"Divorce? This is a good idea. It can preserve the reputation of the Shen family and allow you to leave the general's mansion in glory. This idea is quite appropriate. You can consider it." Ting Ya took over the conversation with a smile, looked at Gu Yunru who had a depressed and lost face, walked up and gently pushed her arm.
"Yunru, don't worry. Ah Zhen has become a different person since he went to the battlefield. He is invincible. There is no one in the whole Da Qi who can compete with him. Those barbarians in the northwest are just strong in vain."
After Tingya became the proprietress of Ruyi Inn, she heard everything, even the secrets of the imperial palace. After hearing about the war in the northwest, she also found out the significance of the matter.
The deputy lieutenant general sent by Da Qi, as well as General Qin and others were all wiped out. However, these people were originally stationed in the northwest and other places. They only escaped after being ambushed by the northwestern barbarians.
If Rong Zhen goes this time, they will be assisted by God and will surely defeat the enemy troops. The common people worship Rong Zhen as a god-like figure. There are even rumors that his achievements are greater than his master's and his wisdom is extraordinary. These remarks are very unfavorable to the current emperor.
"But the northwest is really far away, too far..." Gu Yunru's delicate and tempting red lips opened slightly. Ever since she sent him away from Beijing this morning, she looked dazed and absent-minded, as if her soul had already flown away with Rong Zhen.
"Yunru, don't worry. Although the northwest is cold and remote, I believe that His Royal Highness Prince Zhao will be able to win a great victory. When he comes back, we can enjoy the happiness of family life."
Shen Aojun was also trying to persuade her. After hearing what her two friends said, Gu Yunru's uneasy heart finally calmed down a little.

The scene changed. Shen Aojun was walking on the street, and was about to give the sachet she had embroidered to Gu Yunru, but was bumped by a little beggar on the road. When she reached the door, she realized that the sachet was missing. She was about to look for the little beggar, and sure enough, she saw him at the intersection not far away. She hurriedly called him to stop, and then took the sachet. Seeing that the sachet was fine, she tied it around her waist and walked into the palace.
"I don't know why, today is really unlucky."
As soon as Shen Aojun came and sat aside, she told Gu Yunru that she had encountered many unfavorable things today. She was afraid that she did not choose an auspicious day before going out today.
"Okay, don't worry about those little things anymore, but your craftsmanship is really good. I will thank you on behalf of my child."
