"Your Highness, what are you looking at? Don't tell me you're thinking about the Miss Nangong again?" Zi Ye couldn't help but tease him as he saw Prince Zhan standing at the window ledge of the study and lightly walked in.

The Prince Zhan did not bother with Zi Ye's words, and coldly asked, "What's the matter?" As he spoke, his eyes were still fixed on the ground outside the window, as if he hadn't seen midnight.

"My lord, General Xia came to visit you. A few days ago, you were busy dealing with the several City Lords. General Xia came, but I sent him away. Today, General Xia has come again. You want to meet me? " Zi Ye stood straight and asked with a respectful tone.

Zi Ye saw that the Prince still did not speak, so he continued, "Prince, at that time, because General Xia's daughter, Xia Lang, had a conflict with Miss Nangong, you suddenly assigned General Xia to the border. I think General Xia must have had some complaints, because you came to the border, General Xia came by day to visit you."

Prince Zhan was still standing in front of the window sill, thinking about something but did not respond to Zi Ye's words.

General Xia had also contributed a lot during the war, so the border was not very peaceful right now. He has his forces under his command, and it would be fine if he just consoled him a little, if not, your highness would have to spend a lot of time and effort. Since you have no time, why don't you spend some more time to talk about love with the Miss Nangong? Zi Ye wasn't speaking up for General Xia, but this prince's personality was very cold and didn't like these people's views. He just wanted to remind the prince a little bit. His Royal Highness didn't have any weakness, Zi Ye naturally wanted to use the Miss Nangong as the starting point, so whatever that person said, his Royal Highness would be happy, and would not make a fuss about it with him.

As expected, Prince Zhan was not patient at all, when he heard Zi Ye mention Nangong Waner's name at the end, he was unexpectedly overjoyed. With Prince Zhan's personality, it was impossible for him to meet General Xia, but after hearing Zi Ye's words, Prince Zhan unexpectedly replied with a bland "Okay".

In his heart, Zi Ye was truly indescribably happy. There was a saying that saying goodbye was better than being newlyweds, and his own master was even able to speak so easily after hearing the name of the Miss Nangong.

My lord, I am a little tired these days. I would like to rest for a day or two and go for a walk outside the city." "Prince, if you allow me to leave and return to the capital, I will definitely describe how much you miss her in front of Miss Nangong." Zi Ye bolstered his courage and said with a mischievous smile.

"F * ck off." Prince Zhan looked at Zi Ye coldly.

As if he had expected it, Midnight was not scared even when she shouted at him. Instead, with extremely nimble hands and feet, he took out a letter from his bosom, "My prince, this is an urgent letter from the Duke Palace's Elder Xiu, I think it definitely has to do with the Miss Nangong." As she spoke, she handed the letter over.

Then, Zi Ye held in his laughter and left the room. When he saw General Xia waiting in the front hall, he said, "Just you wait. The prince has agreed to see you."

General Xia was very happy, and thanked Midnight again, and thanked the night guards for sending him the message and so on.

In the study room, the Prince Zhan opened the letter anxiously. After he finished reading the letter, very quickly, the ten thousand year old cold face of the Prince Zhan revealed a very rare expression of anxiety and worry.

In just a few short days, Nangong Waner and Xiao Ze's relationship had reached the stage of talking about marriage.

Prince Zhan rubbed the letter very hard. Somehow, the letter was crumpled into a ball in Prince Zhan's hand and then instantly vanished into nothingness.

He had originally planned to settle the matters of the border in one go so that he could avoid trouble in the future. In a few days time, he could return to Shangjing City.

Once he returned to Shangjing City, he planned to ask the Emperor for an imperial edict so that Nangong Waner could shine and marry off to someone else. The groom would naturally be him, as he had never thought that Nangong Waner and Xiao Ze would have an arranged marriage, so that when he was not in Shangjing City, Xiao Ze and Nangong Waner would discuss marriage.

Prince Zhan could not stay any longer. He put on a robe and quickly left the room.

"Wang... Your Highness, this humble subject … " When Prince Zhan passed by the front hall, General Xia respectfully paid his respects to the Marquis a visit. He had originally thought that the Prince had come to look for him with great happiness, but didn't expect that the Prince Zhan would pass straight through him. As for his respectful greetings, it seemed as if he had never heard of the Prince Zhan before.

Prince Zhan donned his robes and pulled his horse, planning to set off.

Zi Ye did not know what had happened, but seeing that the Prince Zhan was so anxious, he was shocked in his heart, "Your highness, what happened? Where are we going?"

Prince Zhan only left a few words before leaving on his horse, "Return to Shangjing City. I'll leave the matters here to you.

Zi Ye was so shocked by Prince Zhan's actions and words that he was at a complete loss for words. This... "What about Old General Wen …" Even before he finished speaking, the Prince Zhan had already disappeared.

Although the situation of the border city was now stable, and the border was flourishing again after the implementation of the reform measures, the spies from the previous dynasty and the other races had yet to investigate thoroughly. Tomorrow, Old General Wen would be waiting to discuss the matter of dealing with Feng and A Qi with His Royal Highness.

Midnight had a headache. He asked a lot of questions, and left on his own.

General Xia, who was still standing on the same spot, had an unsightly expression on his face. He looked somewhat uncertain, as if he was angry, somewhat patient, and also on the verge of exploding.

When Prince Zhan was fifteen years old, General Xia had followed him to battle at the border. Eight years later, General Xia's achievements were impressive, General Xia liked fame and position, after winning his battle, General Xia wanted to return to Shangjing City to enjoy the limitless glory.

At that time, Prince Zhan only wanted to stay at the border area. On one hand, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor were anxious, and on the other hand, his subordinates missed the families of Shangjing. When Prince Zhan thought of this, he suddenly changed his personality and returned to the imperial court.

Prince Zhan wanted to return to the imperial court as his subordinate, General Xia, was the most anxious. General Xia was not as anxious as he thought. After returning to Shangjing City, General Xia looked as impressive as he had wished.

But he never would have thought that in just a short three years, Prince Zhan would bring his entire family to the border just because of a small misunderstanding between Nangong Waner and Xia Lang.

Eight years of life and death, three years of loyal loyalty, she was demoted to the border just because of Nangong Waner, and Prince Zhan was so heartless as to refuse to even meet her.

General Xia unwillingly clenched his fists. "Very good." General Xia's expression was very dark, but because there was no one around, no one would notice it.
