"Father, my son is back!"
"Yeah!" Heliancheng nodded lightly.
This man has a majesty inherent in him. He is a born king, and he is also the hero that He Lianxuan admires most in his life.
He Lianxuan only wanted to deal with the strong, which he learned from his father. For He Lianxuan, his father was the biggest strong man he had ever seen.
The relationship between father and son is very subtle.
He Liancheng did not attach much importance to this son at first, but as long as it is gold, it will shine. He Liancheng gradually realized that among all his children, only He Lianxuan was the most like him, and only he was the most likely to surpass himself.
But he didn't show it. He Liancheng had been quietly observing He Lianxuan's every move.
If he really wants to ascend to the supreme position, he can only rely on his strength to prove himself.
If he can't stand the test, he deserves to be eliminated by the times.
The future leader of the Rong Kingdom can only be stronger and more ruthless than him!
If they are like those wastes before, how can they revitalize and strengthen the Rong Kingdom!
As for Xuan'er, he really did not disappoint himself.
However, I heard from the spies that many unexpected things seemed to have happened to Xuan'er during his trip to the west. Heliancheng did not take the initiative to ask about this, but waited for Xuan'er to explain everything to him.
He Lianxuan knew that nothing could be hidden from his father, not to mention that he had no intention of hiding anything.
So he truthfully reported everything that happened in the Western Territory to his father.
After hearing this, Heliancheng asked with great interest: "Did you bring that woman back to the palace?"
Even if Helianxuan didn't say it, Heliancheng already knew this fact.
He is the king, how can he hide everything that happened in the palace?
"Yes!" He Lianxuan replied calmly.
"You like that woman very much?"
"That's right!"
"Don't forget that she is from the Yin Kingdom!" He Liancheng said in a confident voice.
"Er Chen has not forgotten!" He Lianxuan looked neither humble nor arrogant, "Wu Yin is the woman Er Chen likes, but she is also Lin Zai's best friend!"
"Oh?" He Liancheng raised his eyebrows, waiting for him to finish.
"As long as she is here, Lin Zai will never dare to act rashly!" He Lianxuan said confidently.
He didn't really intend to use Yin'er to deal with Lin Zai, but he knew his father, so he was extremely sure that if his father knew his true feelings for Yin'er, it would be the real danger to Yin'er.
When you are in a high position, you are naturally much lonelier than ordinary people. If you are emotional, it is even more taboo!
That's why he thought of such wording.
"good!"
He Liancheng didn't ask any more questions. He believed that Xuan'er would never miss an important event because of a woman.
"Father, I have sent someone to Zhang Yu to tell him to continue to hibernate. I am afraid that those people have not forgotten the past, so now we must not let anyone discover his hiding place." He Lianxuan's tone became serious.
"Well, you did it right!" He Liancheng praised.
Haste makes waste, and if you are careless at all, you may end up in complete failure.
It didn't matter to him personally, but he couldn't bet on Rong Guo's future.
"Father, what are your plans next?"
Heliancheng's eyes were stern, "If you want to seize the Western Territory, you must first get rid of Li Ao!"
"The plan to use Lin Zai to make Emperor Yin fear Li Ao has failed, but they will not be so lucky forever. Father, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to get rid of Li Ao!"
"I'll leave this matter to you!"
"yes!"
He Liancheng has always been at ease with Xuan'er.
He Liancheng and He Lianxuan are more like like-minded friends than father and son.
They hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they didn't think much about each other and wanted to talk to each other. Wang didn't need extra emotions, he always only cared about strength.
It's a pity that Heliancheng doesn't fully understand his son.
He thought they were the same person, but He Lianxuan's heart was much softer than his.
This may be because he was raised by his mother.
"By the way, Xuan'er, have you found that person?"
He Lianxuan shook his head.
"I don't know if he is really dead, but this person is always a great hidden danger to you and me!" Heliancheng looked worried.
He used unfair means to seize the throne, which also included the help of the man from Yin State.
In order to calm the people's hearts and prevent those pedantic and stubborn people from gossiping anymore, he had to keep the son of the former prince alive, but he didn't know who was secretly working against him and took the opportunity to secretly let him go.
Heliancheng didn't know if the child already knew what he had done, so as long as he was around, he and Xuan'er would never be able to rest at ease.
But it's not easy to find him. He has grown up and is no longer the same as he was when he was a child.
What's more, if he deliberately hides, they will have no way to find out his whereabouts.
"Father, don't worry, even if he is still alive, I will never let him threaten your rule over the Rong Kingdom!" He Lianxuan vowed.
The former prince had good intentions but was too indecisive. With the current situation of the Rong Kingdom, he was really not suitable to inherit the throne and rule the Rong Kingdom.
Only his father can make the Rong Kingdom change its situation and become stronger. He Lianxuan firmly believed in this.

"Lord, you are back!"
He Lianxuan nodded, looked around and asked softly, "Where is Yin'er?"
"Miss Wu Yin locked herself in the room and refused to come out."
He Lianxuan's face suddenly darkened, and he ordered in an unpleasant tone: "Go and prepare some food now!"
"yes!"
After Ran You left, He Lianxuan took a deep breath, and after he tried to adjust his emotions, he gently knocked on the door.
"Who?" Wu Yin asked immediately after hearing the sound.
"it's me!"
Wu Yin's heart trembled, and she didn't reply. Anyway, he would not pay attention to her feelings.
Seeing that there was no sound inside, He Lianxuan pushed the door open.
Wu Yin immediately turned around when she saw him.
He Lianxuan sighed, and tried to remain gentle as he said, "If you need anything, just tell Ran You."
...
"There are many rules in the palace, but I have already explained it to others. Don't worry, you can move around as you like in this palace and no one will stop you!"
...
"Ran You and I can't protect you all the time, but I have sent Lu Fu to follow you. She is also my confidant. With her here, I will never let anyone hurt you!"
...
He Lianxuan shook his head and smiled bitterly. He had long been accustomed to Yin'er's silence and indifference.
At this time, the food was suddenly served.
He Lianxuan glanced at Ran You and asked her to guard the door and not let anyone disturb her.
"Let's eat. I know you don't like delicacies from the mountains and seas, so I asked someone to make some home-cooked dishes!"
He missed those days in the Western Region very much. He Lianxuan once felt that eating was just to fill his stomach, but he never thought that sitting down and eating with the one he loved felt so good.
Wu Yin knew that there would be no benefit in continuing to resist, not to mention that Che'er was still in his hands, so she had no right to go against his will, so she could only sit on the chair reluctantly.
"Try this, Yin country doesn't have these. I think you will like it after eating it!" He Lianxuan said to please Wu Yin while helping Wu Yin pick up the food.
He used to like Yin'er to pick up food for him, but he can no longer see this scene.
"You still don't want to talk to me?" He Lianxuan suppressed the sadness in his heart.
Wu Yin remained silent in response.
He Lianxuan couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
That's all, as long as she is still by his side, that's enough!
Wu Yin's food was tasteless. She quickly put down her bowl and chopsticks and said in a cold tone: "I'm full!"
"Are you finally willing to talk to me?"
Wu Yin tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart and asked: "Ninth Prince, when can I see Che'er?"
He Lianxuan's expression suddenly became stiff, "When you truly satisfy me, I will let you meet him!"
"What else do you want me to do?"
"You just need to treat me like before!" He Lianxuan replied softly.
Wu Yin couldn't help but sneered, "Do you think we can go back to the past?"
"Why not? You have me in your heart, and I also have you in my heart. If that's the case, why can't we go back to the past?"
"No!" Wu Yin unconsciously emphasized her tone, "I do have you in my heart, but there is more than just you in my heart. For example, even if you have me in your heart, you will never give up your ambitions for me, right? "
"This is different!"
Wu Yin didn't allow him to finish his words, so he interrupted: "What's different is that you and I both have our own persistence. Compared with these, feelings have become unimportant."
"I don't think I did anything wrong. I'm from the Rong Kingdom, and I'm the future king of the Rong Kingdom. I'm just doing what I should do!"
"Me too!" Wu Yin's eyes showed no fear, "I am from the Yin country, and I am doing what I should do, that's all!"
"Can't you really put all this aside and just treat me as your golden master?"
"As long as you can coexist peacefully with Yin Guo, I don't care about all the things you lied to me about before!"
Wu Yin still had some extravagant hopes in his heart.
She tried hard, but she still couldn't really let go of He Lianxuan, so as long as he was willing to do this for her, she could naturally try to stop worrying about the things he had deceived her about before.
Unfortunately, the result was to let her down again and again.
Judging from He Lianxuan's expression, Wu Yin knew that he was not willing!
She felt so painful in her heart. If possible, Wu Yinduo hoped that she had never met this man who made her unable to extricate herself but broke her heart.
