Meng Qingqian took over the entire Qi Kingdom completely, and memorials and trivial matters piled up on her like a tidal wave. She could only sleep for two hours a day, and sometimes she didn't even have time to eat.
No matter how busy she was, Meng Qingqian always left someone at Changhe Palace to pretend to be busy, while she herself would secretly slip back to the side hall of Fenghua Palace to sleep.
The small bed in the side hall of Fenghua Palace was incomparable to the carved large bed in Changhe Palace, but only here could Meng Qingqian sleep soundly without any burdens.
In the quiet of the night, in a side hall of Fenghua Palace, He Yunxiao looked at the stunningly beautiful woman curled up in his arms and sighed.
These past few days, Mengbao is the priority, so we can only ask Sister Jiang to make do for now.
Actually, it wasn't just Sister Jiang who felt wronged; He Yunxiao himself felt wronged as well. Mengbao was too busy, barely having enough time to sleep, so He Yunxiao certainly wouldn't want to make a fool of himself by doing anything else.
Imagine a stunningly beautiful woman sleeping beside you, barely clothed, whom you can only look at but cannot move. What kind of torment would that be?
He Yunxiao sighed, lowered his head and kissed Mengbao's forehead. The girl in his arms seemed to sense it and sleepily raised her head.
Upon seeing this, He Yunxiao quickly asked, "Are you thirsty?"
"Mmm." Meng Qingqian nodded drowsily.
He Yunxiao got up, picked up the warm water that had been sitting on the bedside table, poured a glass, and fed it to Mengbao. Then he coaxed her, saying, "Mengbao, be good, sleep a little longer, it's not dawn yet."
Meng Qingqian mumbled a reply, then snuggled back into his arms like a kitten.
He Yunxiao couldn't sleep all night. He had the Soul-Devouring Pill to keep him going, so it didn't matter if he didn't sleep. But the problem wasn't whether he could sleep or not, but that he couldn't fall asleep.
Yesterday, Mengbao had just told him the news of the failed rescue attempt on Jiang Wuyou's parents. He Yunxiao hadn't told Jiang's sister about this yet.
We need to obtain the border defense map of Yan, and we need to save Sister Jiang's parents. It seems we have no choice but to go to Yan.
He Yunxiao held Mengbao in his arms, silently gazing at the moon outside the window.
Sister Jiang's parents are poisoned by "Autumn Cicada". She had been saved once before, but that had already alerted the poisoner. If she were to save them again, it would be best to bring the South Pearl with her so that she could detoxify them at any time.
The Yan Kingdom is a foreign land with too many unknowns. My cultivation level at the mid-stage of the ninth rank is not enough. It would be best to bring Chu Chu along just in case.
Although Ziruo is intelligent, she cannot act with any of the female protagonists other than Yinyun.
As for the phonetics... Daqi Bank needs her to expand into Yan, but right now there's chaos and war. We'll take her to Yan to play after the war stops.
Mengbao can't go.
After the fact that Jiang Jiejie had saved her parents was discovered, Jiang Jiejie's trip to Yan State was tantamount to walking into a trap.
After careful consideration, He Yunxiao finally decided to send Chu Chu and Nan Zhu with him to the Yan Kingdom.
There are two objectives for this trip to the Yan Kingdom: first, to obtain a map of the Yan Kingdom's border defenses, and second, to rescue Sister Jiang's parents and younger brother!
The situation on the battlefield is constantly changing, so we must go and return as soon as possible!
He Yunxiao looked down at Mengbao, who was fast asleep in his arms, and felt a mix of emotions.
The capital of Yan, Jingtian, is a thousand miles away. A round trip would take at least seven or eight days. If Mengbao were to be poisoned again during this time, he knew he wouldn't be able to get there in time to help her detoxify.
Previous detoxification methods all relied on forcibly breaking Mengbao's mental block and activating her "Hundred Gu Heart Protection Pill" skill. To ensure Mengbao continues to be detoxified, it's necessary to truly defeat her.
Mengbao's affection level has long been maxed out.
The problem that remains unresolved is that the "mental knot" has not been untied.
What exactly is Mengbao's inner conflict?
