When we returned to the Hou Mansion, it was already getting dark.
Meng Haowen sent him to the room and asked with concern: "General, are you okay now?"
"I'm fine."
Luo Jinyu waved his hand gently towards him.
At this time, Shu Zhihan saw the door of the room being opened and hurriedly walked in.
"Are you back?"
Shu Zhihan walked over and found that Luo Jinyu's face was obviously pale, and she couldn't help but feel worried.
She hurried forward and said with concern: "Husband, why are you looking so pale? Did something happen to you and Meng Haowen outside just now?"
Luo Jinyu did not answer her question, but glanced at Shu Zhihan guiltily, and quickly turned away, not daring to look into her eyes.
Seeing that he didn't answer me directly, I suddenly felt that something must have happened.
"You look so ugly, are you sick?"
Shu Zhihan asked again.
"No, it's nothing." Luo Jinyu still did not answer her question directly.
Faced with Shu Zhihan's concern, Luo Jinyu was at a loss for a moment and didn't know how to answer.
He didn't want her to worry about him, but he had no choice but to lie.
At this time, Shu Zhihan seemed to understand his thoughts and said teasingly: "Husband, your face is indeed a bit ugly. Could it be that you secretly played outside for a day behind my back and you are tired?"
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Seeing Shu Zhihan's understanding look, Luo Jinyu's face looked a little ugly.
If it wasn't for his guilty conscience, how could he not answer Shu Zhihan's question directly?
Shu Zhihan looked at him speaking confidently and felt a little more at ease. It could be seen that he had no intention of telling the truth to herself.
This way, she felt relieved.
"By the way, husband, what exactly did you do when you went out? Can you really not tell me?"
Seeing her such expectations, Luo Jinyu hesitated for a moment, and then whispered: "I think we really should go back."
Upon hearing this, Shu Zhihan burst into joy and was so happy that she almost clapped her hands.
"Really? Then when should we leave."
Luo Jinyu didn't expect that she would be so happy, just like a child, clapping her hands vigorously.
He couldn't help but smile, raised his hand and touched her head, "Look, you are so happy. Why do you want to leave here so much?"
Luo Jinyu still has some concerns about this.
Shu Zhihan had lived in this place since she was a child. Wouldn't she feel sad if she really left like this?
Leaving this time may mean that she will never come back. In this way, can she really do it?
Luo Jinyu would also wonder why she was so looking forward to leaving this place. Are there any other factors involved?
He thought about it, but he never asked.
After Shu Zhihan was happy for a while, she saw that there seemed to be a hint of melancholy in Luo Jinyu's eyes.
She couldn't help but wonder, could there be something else going on?
With this in mind, she slowly reached out and grabbed Luo Jinyu's hands, smiling sweetly.
"Husband, is there something wrong with you? You can tell me."
Luo Jinyu pulled her to sit on his lap and put his hands around her waist.
"It's nothing serious. There may be some minor troubles over there in the border town, but don't worry. For your husband and me, this kind of thing is easy to do."
Seeing the relaxed expression on his face when he spoke, Shu Zhihan couldn't help but think that maybe he was thinking too much. In fact, there was nothing wrong at all. Otherwise, he wouldn't care so much.
But then I thought about it, maybe it wasn't that he didn't care, but that he cared too much about himself.
Shu Zhihan hugged him tightly with both hands and rested her head on his shoulder.
Luo Jinyu then told her about Shu Qingcheng, and it was exactly as he expected.
When Shu Zhihan heard that Shu Qingcheng was already a noble concubine, her heart skipped a beat.
"Tell me, fourth sister, is she really happy?"
She couldn't help but think of them in the past, when they cherished each other in the Grand Master's Mansion and worked hard together to live their lives.
When did all this start to change?
Shu Zhihan thought carefully, as if the real change in all this was when she married a border town.
At that time, she never imagined that it would become what it is now.
Seeing her frown, Luo Jinyu immediately understood what she was thinking, and said softly: "Don't think too much, there are some things that you can't control.
Go to bed early, I have to go to the palace tomorrow. "
Shu Zhihan nodded, then stood up from him and slowly left the room.
Her room is just next door. Although the two have had physical contact, they still avoid sleeping together before they get married.
After Shu Zhihan returned to the room alone, she lay on the bed and thought carefully about everything about Shu Qingcheng.
I couldn't help but ask myself, is all this really because of me?
At this moment, it seemed that she could enter the palace and maybe have a good chat with Shu Qingcheng, but she knew that this was unrealistic.
The next day, Luo Jinyu entered the palace early.
Before he left, he quietly took a look at Shu Zhihan and found that she was sleeping soundly, so he did not wake her up.
When leaving, he specifically told Meng Haowen not to call her, but to wait until she wakes up before telling her.
After Luo Jinyu made the explanation, he hurriedly left the Hou Mansion.
After he entered the palace, he met the emperor smoothly.
"Jin Yu, I don't know why you came to see me so early in the morning?"
"Your Majesty, I have something important to report."
Luo Jinyu saluted very respectfully, with a serious face and no smile at all.
It is this face that makes people think that he is the General of Hell.
"What's the matter? Tell me."
"Your Majesty, there has been a lot of action over at Xiling recently."
As soon as he said this, he saw the emperor moving on his dragon throne.
"What do you mean? Aren't they a friendly country to us? How could that be?"
"Reporting back to the emperor, I finally received news that the ridge master of Xiling passed away recently. It may be because of this that there is some turmoil."
The emperor couldn't help but tremble when he heard that it was the Xiling side that might be jealous.
It's fine in other places, but it's very difficult to do in Xiling.
Their power is very powerful, and they also occupy a geographical advantage. Even if they really want to fight, it will be very difficult to attack.
It was also thanks to Luo Jinyu that he and the old ridge master reached an agreement to ensure safety.
But now in this situation, I really don’t know what to do.
"Jin Yu, in this way, I will give you full authority over this matter. Whatever you think can be done well, then do it. What do you think?"
Luo Jinyu had also thought of this possibility, but he was still a little surprised to hear him actually say it himself.
"Yes, Your Majesty. However, there is something that requires Your Majesty to take back your order."
When the emperor heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little strange, and immediately asked: "What's the matter?"
"I think there is no way we can stay here to get married. Please ask the emperor to take back the marriage."
“This matter is also a bit difficult to handle.
Everyone knows that you are about to get married, and what's more, this matter in Xiling is not suitable to be spoken out in front of the court officials.
Therefore, I really have no way to suppress this matter.
However, you can simply do it and leave. "
Luo Jinyu didn't say anything more and nodded in agreement.
After he left, he didn't expect to meet Shu Qingcheng.
"Don't you need to salute when you see me?"
Shu Qingcheng felt extremely unhappy when she saw him ignoring her and just passing by.
At first, I felt that I couldn't impress him, but now that my identity has changed, does he still look down on me?
Shu Qingcheng listened to the people below talking about Luo Jinyu entering the palace, so he dressed up carefully and trotted over, just to see him.
But being completely ignored by him, how could I feel comfortable in my heart.
Luo Jinyu listened to what she said, stood still, looked her up and down, and then said coldly, "I have met Concubine Cheng."
After saying that, he opened his legs and wanted to leave, but what he didn't expect was that Shu Qingcheng reached out and grabbed him.
Luo Jinyu frowned and shook her hand away with a little force.
"Concubine Cheng, please respect yourself. If you feel uncomfortable living here in the Wind Palace and want to go to the Cold Palace to have a look, you can continue to stand here with me like this."
Luo Jinyu's words shocked Shu Qingcheng.
"Luo Jinyu, I am a noble concubine now, do you still want to speak to me in this tone? Aren't you afraid that I will tell the emperor."
"Really? I wonder what you want to tell the emperor? Could it be that you want to tell the emperor how you are trying every possible means to pester me?
I still advise you to keep such elaborate dress for the emperor to see. "
When Shu Qingcheng heard what he said, he just wanted to go crazy.
"Luo Jinyu, if you still choose to speak to me in this tone, I will tell the emperor that you have molested me."
After hearing these words, Luo Jinyu was extremely disgusted with the woman in front of him.
"Okay, then let's go in together and tell the emperor that you and I are skin-to-kin, and see who has the last laugh in the end."
Luo Jinyu said and turned around, making a show of going in to find the emperor.
Shu Qingcheng didn't expect him to be so bold, but what he said seemed to be right.
If the emperor knew about this kind of thing, then it would be considered a light thing for her to be thrown into the cold palace.
"Luo Jinyu, you are cruel."
"Thank you very much for your compliment, Imperial Concubine."
After saying that, he turned around and left, feeling that this woman was really unreasonable and vexatious.
Shu Qingcheng looked at his leaving figure and stamped her feet angrily.
