"Stop talking nonsense, Princess of Changman Kingdom."
Lady Wen widened her eyes. "How do you know? It's impossible for anyone to know my identity. Did the Meng family leader tell you before he died? Tell me now!"
When she said this, Lady Wen almost collapsed.
"You don't need to worry about how I know this. Now you just need to tell me what you know and what exactly your Changman Kingdom has prepared."
Lady Wen glanced at the emperor with disdain. "What you said is ridiculous. Do you think I would tell you?"
"Grand eunuch, start the punishment."
During the torture, the three men retreated first, and immediately a woman's scream came from inside, which sounded very creepy and scary. Li Jingchen quickly covered Jiang Tuantuan's ears with his hands and gently kissed her hair.
A young eunuch came out from inside, brought a basin of water, and walked back in. Then, screams were heard from inside again, even louder than before.
The emperor ordered the eunuch to stop. The beautiful lady Wen inside had disheveled hair, her exposed skin was covered with wounds, and her clothes were torn and soaked in blood, turning red.
Looking horrible, Lady Wen said weakly, "Give me a quick death. I don't have any useful information to tell you. I'm just a down-and-out princess from the Changman Kingdom."
Lady Wen raised her head and smiled helplessly.
The emperor turned around and sighed, "Let her have a quick death."
"yes."
Before she died, Lady Wen smiled faintly. "This day has finally come. I'm sorry, mother, for not being able to protect you. I hope that in the next life you won't marry my father, and I won't be born into the royal family anymore."
After witnessing the deaths of three people in one day, Jiang Tuantuan was still in a daze when she left the palace, as if everything was just a dream.
But for Li Jingchen, all this has long been commonplace.
He gently took Jiang Tuantuan's hand and asked, "Are you scared?"
"I don't."
Jiang Tuantuan looked at him solemnly and asked, "Is a war about to break out?"
"right."
"So you're going to the battlefield too?"
"right."
Jiang Tuantuan raised her fist and pounded on his chest. "Since you already knew about this, why didn't you tell me? Why did you keep it hidden from me? If I hadn't gone to the palace to interrogate the prisoner today, I wouldn't have known about this at all!"
The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and his eyes turned red. It was rare to see Tuantuan's eyes turn red, and he immediately became nervous. "Tuantuan, it's my fault. I shouldn't have kept it from you, but I didn't want to make you worry."
"Can you just not tell me if you don't want me to worry? This thing is bound to happen. What will happen to Yubao and me if you leave?"
She didn't know when it started, but she had begun to rely on Li Jingchen and got used to the days when Li Jingchen was around. She didn't know whether he would live or die if he left.
"Don't worry, Tuantuan. I will definitely come back alive and stay with you forever. Trust me, okay?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a horse galloped past, and the rider on the horse shouted hurriedly: "Emergency at the border, emergency at the border!"
The two men looked in the direction the horse had galloped past, one's eyes were filled with tears, and the other's eyes were full of guilt.
He is a general of the country and has to go when the country is in trouble.
"Tuantuan, me."
Jiang Tuantuan gently pressed his mouth and kissed him slowly, "Go ahead, I'll be waiting for you at home. I must, I must come back alive."
"I already know how."
The two people hugged each other tightly.
Then Li Jingchen rushed to the palace, and Jiang Tuantuan walked home in a daze.
Yubao was laughing and was led by Feng Xiaoli towards the door, because usually at this time, his father and mother would come back.
As expected, as soon as he reached the door, he saw his mother. Yubao shook off Feng Xiaoli's hand, ran towards Jiang Tuantuan, and called out in a baby voice, "Mom."
When Jiang Tuantuan saw Yubao, he immediately calmed down, bent down, hugged him in his arms, and said gently: "Yubao, what did you do today? Are you happy?"
"I'm happy. I wrote and drew today. Yubao is going to play wrestling with Daddy and Mommy tonight."
"Okay, let's play together. But Daddy will be busy from now on and may not be able to accompany our Yubao every day. Mommy will play with you, okay?"
Yubao's eyes immediately drooped, and he buried his head in Jiang Tuantuan's arms. He raised his little head a little, revealing his round eyes, and looked at the empty street in front of him. There was no sign of his father.
She immediately pouted in grievance, "Why does Daddy have to be busy?"
"Daddy has fought for the country and the people, and for Yubao and the people of the world to have a stable life. Yubao's dad is a great hero."
Yubao didn't understand what this sentence meant at the moment, but seeing his mother's serious expression, he nodded in agreement.
Feng Xiaoli noticed that her daughter was abnormal. After Yubao fell asleep, she immediately smelled something. What happened?
"Mom, there's going to be a war!"
Upon hearing the news, the whole family became depressed.
After Li Jingchen entered the palace, Duke Zhao and all the ministers arrived one after another.
The emperor sat at the top and announced that this time he would go to war with Dongyi Kingdom and Changman Kingdom. It would be a long and fierce battle. Who was willing to take the initiative to go to war?
Li Jingchen and Duke Zhao came out at the same time.
"I am willing!"
The emperor was deeply moved when he saw the elderly Duke of Zhao also stand up.
But the emperor did not want Duke Zhao to go to war because he was old and no longer fit for the battlefield.
