However, Ling Chaofeng believed that if the blue-eyed prince was sincere in his marriage with Daqi, he would have passed the marriage contract to the emperor very early on. He wouldn't have left such an important thing in the inn.
Naturally, if he wanted to throw it, he could throw it anywhere, and it would stay in the inn. Perhaps it was just a coincidence, or perhaps it was out of fear, and he believed that if he threw it in the inn, he would at least be able to find it.
"We naturally have to rely on ourselves for the fate of the general." Ling Chaofeng said to the Xiaowan, "The Emperor will send General Wei, the person who has never brought a water master, to the coast to prepare for battle, and Miss Bi just so happens to be marrying out of here.
Xiaowan looked at Hubby with her bright eyes and asked softly, "Will the general steal my wife?"
But at the moment, Wei Tengfei was discussing about the matter of receiving and protecting the emperor without any distractions. If it was really as Prince Haas had said, the fleet of the Xiluo would arrive at the Daqi coast in a few days, and after calculating the route, the emperor would arrive a day earlier. As for the fleet of the Xiluo, they did not have a set amount of time.
After everyone made their decision, they all left. Wei Tengfei looked at the long stretch of shore on the sand table, and the desire in his heart for Daqi to establish a strong water master became exceptionally strong.
The battle at sea should be resolved by sea, how could they allow the enemy to step foot on the continent? Now that the Daqi navy was weak, they could only do this, but they were unable to concentrate their forces.
However, when he found out that everyone had left and he was the only one left in the tent, a heart-wrenching pain came from all directions.
He was very ashamed. The one feeling pained was not the people on the coast, nor was it the fact that the Daqi water master was weak. The one feeling pained was only a woman.
How could he leave Hanxi in his homeland? Why was he not in the mountains, just to explain himself to her?
Wei Tengfei never thought that there would be a woman who would be stuck in his sight, but when she closed her eyes and opened them, it was like she was in a valley, as if she was lying on a bed in pain and wished that she was dead.
He had never thought that he would fall in love with a woman.
In the next few days, when Xiaowan brought Wei Tengfei food, it was always piled high with food. After stuffing the food into a large bowl, Wei Tengfei could not help but say to Xiaowan after eating for two days: "There's too much food, it's not finished, it's a waste."
She wanted to tell the general that she would only be able to find a way to get Hanxi to stay if she had enough strength to eat, but her husband forbade her to talk too much, so she didn't dare say anything.
Ling Chaofeng watched Xiaowan tensely and casually every day. The first day he saw her bringing Wei Tengfei a large amount of food, his serious and serious expression was adorable and funny. Indeed, in less than two days, they were protested by the General Wei.
Xiaowan was also unwilling to waste food, furthermore, she knew how difficult it was to transport grain in the army. When she was picking rice, she was unwilling to waste even a single grain of rice, and she was also reluctant to waste not a single grain of flour. But when he thought about how far Hanxi had to go, he couldn't help but give all of his food to the General Wei, so that he would have the strength to deal with his enemies.
These few days, the emperor was majestically escorting the empress to send off Prince Haas and Bi Hanxi, and naturally Grand Councilor Counselor-in-chief Bi and Bi Zhenye were allowed to go as well. Because they were not allowed to leave the capital due to official matters, Ershan was not able to come.
Right at the front of the fleet was a guard, followed by the imperial ship that was surrounded by guards. Fortunately, the imperial ship of the emperor was comparable to Prince Haas's ship, if not the dignity of the Tian Clan would be taken away by that huge ship called Xiluo.
After the imperial ship was Prince Haas's boat, followed by Hanxi's boat to escort him. The other officials were always at the back, and whenever they saw the Emperor, they would have to paddle their boat and catch up to him.
The long fleet came along the river, causing Siyan's horizons to expand. Although she had traversed every inch of land in the Chuanyu, because her brother was busy with military affairs, she had almost never had the chance to see the outside world. Every mountain, every stone, and every tree was exceptionally fresh in her eyes.
Halfway there, Siyan almost forgot her purpose for coming here, only when she looked back and saw the team behind him, did she remember what they were going to do, and the further they went, the more serious the emperor became, and the less she talked to her about it.
Hanxi was riding on a boat by herself. The palace maids were meticulous and considerate towards her, it was the Empress's will and Hanxi was very grateful.
But she knew that once she left the Daqi Nation grounds and boarded the boat heading towards the Xiluo, perhaps there would be no one who would take care of her for the rest of her life.
Looking back at the past, if he said he had any regrets, it was probably because when he and his mother had separated, he was unable to talk about their treasures properly. He always thought that no matter what, he would be able to catch up to the Siping Mansion, but in the end, he was getting further and further away.
But she regretted it too late. At least if she left, her mother would no longer have to work hard at Siping Mansion and wouldn't be bullied or humiliated. It was worth it.
Hanxi walked onto the deck alone. She heard that Lian Yi's sister-in-law had jumped into the river to fight for the marriage contract, but she didn't have the guts to do so, so she couldn't do so either.
Hanxi said to herself over and over again, that she was neither going to make the marriage alliance nor throw away her life. She was using herself to exchange for her mother's life.
Even under the sunset, one could still see his skin as white as snow and eyes as the ocean. Hanxi remembered that the Xiaowan had told him why there was such a beautiful man here, that's right, even Hanxi only wanted to use this word to describe the man in front of him.
Prince Haas bowed towards Hanxi, who returned the greeting.
During their journey until now, they would occasionally meet up and exchange a few simple words. At the very least, this person seemed to be extremely polite and gentle at this moment. But once they entered the ocean, he would change his appearance. Hanxi had already warned himself before to not think too highly of others.
The blue-eyed prince looked at the delicate woman standing on the deck and sighed in his heart. Then, he turned around and walked back to the cabin.
The Xiaowan was gradually getting used to it, and was not afraid in her heart. Every day, she would do her own work, hoping for the Empress to come, hoping that the General Wei would beat the bad guy from the Xiluo back.
On this day, Ling Chaofeng went to fetch the food. The Xiaowan did not follow him, but instead came to the kitchen to help with the dishes. Wei Tengfei happened to be here, so he inquired about the food of the army, as well as the preparation for the Emperor.
Seeing that Xiaowan was sitting beside a huge water basin and swiftly rolling up her sleeves to wash the dishes, he walked over and said guiltily, "Every time we meet, you always work. I'm afraid you don't want to see me again in the future."
The Xiaowan laughed. "General, but I can only do these things, what can I do for you and the warriors? I am very happy, does this count as my contribution to Daqi?"
Wei Tengfei laughed. "It counts, of course it counts."
He casually picked up a chair and sat down. Xiaowan gave him a sweet smile and then lowered his head to continue washing the dishes.
This scene made Wei Tengfei suddenly feel that he had seen it somewhere before. It felt like they had already talked to each other in this kind of situation in the past.
He could only explain that every time he saw Xiaowan, she would always be working, which was why he felt that they were so familiar with each other.
"The emperor is almost here, I didn't expect the empress to come as well." Wei Tengfei said, "She must be very happy to have Siyan meet you."
Xiaowan laughed: "I have already heard about the story of the Empress and the inn. It's a pity that I didn't encounter such a good thing when I came here late.
Wei Tengfei laughed: "She's fine now."
The Xiaowan asked, "Does the Empress and the General look alike? With how handsome you are, the Empress must also be very beautiful."
Wei Tengfei coughed dryly, "Am I considered handsome? So dark, so rough. "
Xiaowan shook her head continuously: "Of course you're handsome. Hanxi said that you're like a god, mighty, domineering and beautiful."
Wei Tengfei's expression darkened slightly, and Xiaowan also felt that she had talked too much, but she couldn't help but lower her head and observe Wei Tengfei's expression.
In the end, she did not dare to say much. Her husband had taken care of her, so she could not speak nonsense.
Xiaowan lowered her head to continue washing the dishes. However, General Wei suddenly asked her, "Xiaowan, do you and Hanxi have everything to talk about?"
"I guess so …" Xiaowan said, "When she was recuperating in the mountain village, because of the pain, we talked nonstop to divert her attention. We talked too much and after thinking about it for a moment, we felt that she did not say anything."
Wei Tengfei asked: "Does she have a lover?"
Xiaowan was startled, she could not help but raise the corner of her mouth, but she remembered her husband's warning, so she said in a serious tone, "General, you want to know this, go and ask Hanxi yourself."
Wei Tengfei lowered his eyes, his aura becoming weaker. His dry lips moved slightly, wanting to say something but stopped himself.
The words in Xiaowan's heart was about to escape her mouth, but Ling Chaofeng's words were like an imperial decree to her, so she endured it in the end.
But at this moment, there was a disturbance by the sea, Wei Tengfei stood up alertly, and climbed up a tree in a few steps. Standing high and high, he could see the distance, where the Sky Sea was connected.
After a short period of chaos, the trained soldiers were immediately on alert. Wei Tengfei jumped down from the tree and ordered his subordinates, "Take Xiaowan and retreat.
Then he said to the Xiaowan: "I can't care about you anymore. Wait until your husband returns. If they were to land, they might be able to come out from anywhere. If they were to wander to the interior, they might kill and rob them.
Xiaowan replied solemnly. She immediately followed the soldiers and retreated, the ground behind them was high, and from the top of the mountain, she could already see the densely packed boats in the distance.
Xiaowan had already felt the might and might of the military ship that had been watching over the Daqi by the ocean. When she saw the fleet of the Xiluo, she realized why the Emperor and General were so nervous.
"Madam, this way." A soldier led the way for the Xiaowan.
Xiaowan quickly followed. However, when she raised her head, she saw a large group of dark clouds floating over from the east side. That dark cloud was moving much faster than the speed of ships.
