Chapter 1150: Tomorrow You'll Be Gone
ch by the emperor's side made a request at Jingtang Garden for you to cook for him. Did the emperor really think he could order you around like that He thinks he's something special, doesn't he If I...An Xuetang pursed her lips, in reality, no one knew how badly she wanted to selfishly reply with 'no good' at this moment.
If it were possible, she'd rather have Mo Yunjing truly abandon his royal status and retire to the countryside with her. She yearns for a life of freedom and ease, free from the burden of national affairs.
But she knew, Mo Yunjing would always be Mo Yunjing. He couldn't abandon everything because every expedition of his wasn't for the so-called throne, power, or empire. He had never even thought about reaching the pinnacle of power.
He led his troops into battle with the sole purpose of sparing the people from the ravages of war and preventing them from becoming refugees. This was a duty ingrained in his very being, something he could never refuse.
After a long silence, she finally nodded slightly. "Alright, I won't go anywhere before you come back,"
She knew that almost every faction wanted to capture her, whether it was for dealing with Mo Yunjing. Like Mo Yunren, Mo Yunze, and even Mo Yunchen. Some believed the absurd rumors, like "Whoever obtains her will obtain the world." Because of this rumor, she became a sought-after prize for a time. Anyone with ambition almost wanted to find her.
In recent days, Mo Yunjing has arranged for many people to use various means to kill those who tried to break into the palace.
Although she had felt that her husband, Mo Yun Jing, had made the palace as secure as an ironclad fortress, he himself was never truly at ease. Therefore, this time he decided to have all his most trusted retainers stay behind to protect her.
He didn't know, though, that for every time he wanted to protect her, she wanted to protect him in return. Between them... it had always been a two-way street.
Mo Yunjing pulled her back to the bedside and gently brushed the stray hairs from her face with his hand, "Is the hair loss still quite severe these past few days"
"It's alright, it's a physical issue. Some people lose hair during pregnancy, so there's no need to worry. Besides, I'm good at healing myself and I care deeply about the child in my womb, so I'll take good care of myself. You don't have to worry about me."
"As for you, if you go there and the so-called General Zhenxi refuses to hand over the military talisman, or he intentionally makes his soldiers disobey you, do you have a way to deal with it"
Now, this was her biggest worry. After all, she had specifically sent Ning'er these past few days to inquire about General Zhenxi.
So it's perfectly clear what kind of person he is. This man has hardly ever seen battle, his title as the Marshal Commanding the West was inherited from his father, and he hasn't earned any military merit whatsoever. The Emperor must have some serious issues with his head to allow a position like Marshal to be passed down through inheritance!
What's worse, this man was a jovial fellow and didn't treat his soldiers as strictly as other generals. As a result, these men were nominally soldiers but physically couldn't keep up, they were no match for the Red Nation's troops at all.
No wonder so many of the soldiers from the State of Chi died in such a short time after they attacked.
This man has no ability to lead troops in battle, but he is very good at raising them into uselessness.
In this case, she had to worry that these people with holes in their heads would not obediently follow Mo Yunjing's orders when he took over.
Mo Yunjing chuckled at this, "Tangtang, aren't you forgetting who I am"
""
An Xuetang blinked, not understanding what he meant.
Mo Yun Jing's eyes were filled with doting affection as he looked at her, "The man before you, who led his troops into battle in his teens. Everyone knows that I emerged from the battlefield, forged in blood and corpses. Rumors abound that I am a merciless and savage demon king. Do you think people would dare to oppose me"
He has never been a kind and compassionate person. To achieve his goals, he would even let those who deserved it die, showing no mercy. Otherwise, how could he have commanded those soldiers when he was just a teenager in the army
An Xuetang also thought of this when he said so. She pursed her lips, "No matter what, I just want you to be safe."
"Okay."
Suddenly, the two fell silent. An Xuetang suddenly remembered that she had to check the things she had prepared for Mo Yunjing.
Before she could even get to her feet, Mo Yunjing grabbed the back of her head with one hand. Before she could react, he leaned down and kissed her.
An Xuetang pressed her hands against his chest, wanting to take a look at how much she still needed to prepare before it got completely dark. However, Mo Yunjing didn't give her the chance at all.
This kiss held his reluctance, his worry. He was gentle at first, but the more he thought about having to leave during her pregnancy, the more guilt consumed him.
His kiss, which had been like water at first, gradually became forceful, as if he wanted to take her into his very bones and blood.
An Xuetang's lips ached, she blinked, feeling his reluctance. At first, she tried to remain rational, but as he relentlessly attacked, she gradually lost control, her brain felt deprived of oxygen, growing hazy and lightheaded...
"Ajing..."
Before Mo Yunjing loosened his hold, she slightly regained her composure, breathing a little raggedly. “Tomorrow you’re leaving, I have to go prepare things for you, don’t bother me first.”uits, letting her experience the grievances her family's Ah Jing suffered back then, that's enough.Today, Han Yun just happened to not be by her side. It would be better to get rid of her quickly, oth...
