"This old man has a plan. If Qin Gui were to make a comeback, he will expose his scandal in the public and tell the world about this wretched couple's shameful affair. In that case, people will suspect and rumors will spread everywhere. He will definitely take it well …"

Hua Rong wanted to shout good, but held back. Yue Pengju laughed and nodded.

King Qin secretly saw that Hua Rong's expression was indifferent, he thought, if you ignore me, I won't be looking for you, I'm only talking to Yue Pengju, the little brat.

At this time, the food was already prepared, Yue Pengju immediately said passionately: King Qin, let's eat first, it's getting late, you can rest here for tonight.

"Alright, laozi is panicking due to the hunger."

Yue Pengju looked at his wife. He had thought that she would immediately instruct him to prepare a room that would be as gentle and obedient as usual, but instead saw her expressionless face and ice-cold gaze. She said lightly: "King Qin, you may leave."

King Qin had already made up his mind since the night before, as long as he could protect her and make her safe and sound this time, he would leave. However, in the end, there was a faint desire and expectation in his heart, especially when he saw her occasional smile after entering the door. Although it wasn't directed at him, he was secretly happy, and his heart floated up to a tiny bit of hope. He only wanted, as long as she was like this, and as long as she didn't fall out with him, even if he had to live another life for her, and even if it would be because of her, protecting a person like Zhao Deji who despised him, he would not refuse.

However, listening to Yue Pengju leaving him to eat, he wanted to experience it again, even if it was the last time, how considerate she was in serving him food. That hazy feeling made him feel that he was his wife, like it was the wish of a family. However, it was not the warmth from his memories. Rather, it was so cold that it was like ice.

His heart turned cold and he coughed before shifting his gaze to somewhere else.

It was only then that she recalled that when King Qin came over, Hua Rong did not greet him like she used to. He tried to say, "Everyone go eat first …"

Hua Rong was still unmoved as she glanced at the King Qin: "I only prepared food for two people, there's no excess."

Yue Pengju was even more surprised, the food outside was plentiful, with a King Qin, it was enough, when did his wife become so petty, and start speaking nonsense? He could not help but secretly pull at his wife's hand. "Sister Shi Qi …"

Hua Rong ignored him and shook off his hand. She did not look at him, nor did she look at King Qin as she said coldly: "I don't want to eat with outsiders. If you want to eat it, eat it yourselves. "

King Qin only felt a chill from head to toe, chilling to the core. He understood that the little girl was going to be completely cut off from him. King Qin could not stay any longer, his chest was rising and falling rapidly as he said angrily: "Hua Rong, you don't have to be like this, I do not care about this meal of yours …"

She sneered and did not speak again.

King Qin turned and left.

Yue Pengju found it embarrassing to open his mouth to urge him to stay again, and only after seeing him walk out the door did he turn his gaze towards his wife and ask in a low voice: "What happened to you?"

"Nothing!"

"King Qin has good intentions as well. He's been very helpful to us this time. Since he sent us news, why can't we even have a single meal? "

She replied stiffly, "I don't need his good intentions, and I don't want to see him again. Why are you making him eat?"

Yue Pengju had never seen his wife act so arrogantly before. He was stunned for a moment before slowly saying, "There is something bad about the King Qin, but he has worked so hard these past few days …"

Hua Rong was suddenly furious, the grievances that were suppressed at the bottom of her heart gushed out together, and she loudly said: "What hard work does he have? He deserved it. He beat me so badly that I couldn't bear to have children, not like a woman, who would walk around in front of me every day, and I hated him when I saw him. Can't I hate him? I hate him. That's right, I'm so narrow-minded, I don't want to work with him, I don't want to see him, and I don't care about any news of him. He is doing this for Zhao Deji, not me. If you want to eat, ask Zhao Deji to invite him to eat … "

Fortunately Yue Pengju had already sent everyone off and shut the door tightly, so even if she was angry, her voice was still softer. However, the more they said it, the more it sounded unsightly it was,. Yue Pengju and his wife had always loved each other, but they could not tolerate her not being able to differentiate good from bad, so they were slightly angered and whispered: "Today's situation is tense, King Qin is a pirate that can still look at the bigger picture.

"Yes, I am worse than a pirate. I don't care about anything. "All of you are men who do great things. You all have high realms, but I don't want to work with my enemies anymore …"

"King Qin is not an enemy! Even if he did do something, it would most likely cancel him out! "

"Cancel? It would be a set-off for you. Not to me. You can also take in concubines and have children for you, but what about me? My life is ruined. Don't you want to have your own blood and blood? If you can't take a concubine this year and a concubine next year, what about five years later? And ten years later? "At that time, I will become a sinner, a sinner who will put an end to your burning incense, a sinner who will be despised by you, a sinner who will grow old with no end in sight …"

Before she could finish, she turned and rushed into her bedroom, and closed the door with a bang. When Yue Pengju went to open the door, he found that she had already locked it from the inside, and could not even open the door.

This was the first time in more than ten years that the two of them had a dirty argument. Yue Pengju was so angry that he sat on the chair for a while. He did not understand what was going on, what kind of change had occurred, for his wife to suddenly become so crazy?

Weren't they still fine a few days ago? She had even fried tea for King Qin. Why did they become enemies today?

He had always believed that he and his wife, regardless of whether they were reunited or separated, shared the same thoughts and feelings. It was only today that he realized that he didn't understand what she was thinking at all.

She could not bear children, and he had never despised her. Besides, he already had a cute son, so it didn't matter whether he gave birth to her or not. He let out a long sigh. Suddenly, he remembered that her son had remained at the palace as a "hostage." Even though she wasn't her biological father, Hua Rong had great feelings for her son.

Even so, wasn't he worried? To be able to save Zhao Deji with his urgent dispatch of troops, naturally, he could also save her son. There was no need for her to vent all her anger on the King Qin!

After a long time, there was no response from the guards. They carefully asked, "Sir, let's eat …"

He shook his head. Originally, he was extremely hungry, but now, he had no appetite at all. He only said, "Go and heat up the dishes first. Madam is not feeling well. I'll wait for her to rest and eat together with her."

"Yes."

When King Qin went out, perhaps he did not feel any surprise from Hua Rong's actions, nor did he feel any greater grief. It was just that her heart was truly and utterly dead.

Liu Wu asked him: "Great King, where are we going now?"

"Let's go back."

Third Uncle Yang had already sent people over many times to ask him to return. He thought that if he did not go back now, the small fry would rebel.

Liu Wu hesitated: "Then what about Ma Su?"

"Since Ma Su has already entered the capital, he will not be able to leave for a moment. If he stayed, he might be able to make a name for himself and become rich. It wasn't in vain for him to be a scholar, and his future prospects were better than being a pirate. "Don't worry about him."

During the entire journey, Liu Wu had been as close to him as a brother. When he thought of this farewell, it was unknown when he would meet Ma Su again, but he listened to King Qin's tone and did not dare to say anything else.

King Qin turned around and looked at the pitch-black night. This journey had been like a dream for ten years.

Seeing him act this way, Liu Wu could no longer hold back, and angrily said: "The Madame Yue is also ruthless, the King is willing to die for her, but she is actually so unsightly."

King Qin shook his head.

"Great King, there are so many good women in this world. If you return to the island, you must immediately get married and have children. Why should you care about her? "Such a heartless woman …"

King Qin interrupted him with a bland voice. "She is not heartless!"

Liu Wu was startled.

"I bullied her many times, and injured her as well. She only scolded me a few times, so it can't be considered as being heartless."

Liu Wu disagreed: "She doesn't know what's good for her."

"What do you know about me?"

Liu Wu did not accept this, and did not dare say anything else.

The King Qin raised his whip and galloped his horse forward. Liu Wu followed behind him. The two of them quickly disappeared into the darkness.

After running for a while, the horse suddenly became frightened and raised its hooves. Luckily the King Qin firmly held onto the horse rein and sat down, and shouted: "Who is it?"

In the dark night, a ghost-like voice could be heard faintly, floating in the air, "King Qin, principal superior invites you."

King Qin's heart shook as he scolded loudly: "Fuck, didn't I already finish this for you? You still want to order me around? "

"principal superior didn't order you to do so, it was an invitation."

"No!"

"It's a good thing. It will only be beneficial to you. It won't do you any harm."

"I wouldn't even go to heaven, not to mention that bitter cold place like yours. I don't endure the cold, I don't want to."

"Better than heaven. Not to the Shang Jing, the journey is not too far, it is just ahead of us. "

King Qin was shocked. That old monster, Ye Lvdayong, actually came to Song Kingdom? He suddenly thought of a plan to place the parasite under the combined thorns of the Song Kingdom, and then suddenly appeared in the Song Kingdom, what exactly was his intention?

The sky was already completely dark.

Yue Pengju sat in the great hall. He had never had an argument with his wife, and for the first time he didn't know what to do. Even though he was angry at her overbearing attitude, it wasn't her character in the first place. He felt it was strange and didn't know how to coax her. After sitting for an unknown period of time, he felt his legs going numb and slowly stood up. He remembered that there was no stove in his wife's room and that she was always afraid of the cold, so he got up and went to open the door. With this push, the door opened. It was unknown when she removed the door latch.

Relieved, he ran to the bed and turned on the light to see his wife lying on her side, her head covered by the blanket, her back to him. He did not call to her. He first lit the stove, and after a while, there was some heat in the room. Only then did he sit on the bedside, gently lifting up the blanket a little, exposing her head, and said gently: "Sister Shi Qi, I'm so hungry …"

She still did not speak.

He put his hand under her armpit, and she could not resist, and angrily opened his hand. "When you're hungry, go eat. Why are you bothering me …"

Finally, he spoke.

He chuckled and hugged her, whispering softly into her ear, "If you don't accompany me, how can I eat?"
