In the middle of the night, everything was quiet. It was supposed to be a night of sweet dreams and sweet dreams, but the main courtyard of Zhanwang Mansion was still brightly lit.

The King of War, Huyan Luoyi, sat at the table with a dignified expression on his resolute and handsome face.

Princess Zhan sat by the bed, tightly hugging her daughter's favorite rattan ball, tears streaming down silently: "Ling'er, my Ling'er, where are you now? Ling'er..."

A murmur full of longing and worry made Huyan Luoyi's expression moved, he got up, walked to Princess Zhan and sat down, put his arms around her shoulders and comforted her softly: "Ling'er is not in the house at this time. It's a good thing, Ling'er is so smart and alert, she will be fine, don't worry."

"You said it!"

Suddenly breaking free from Huyan Luoyi's hand that was holding his shoulders, Concubine Zhan glared at him with teary eyes: "The great general who has dominated the battlefield for many years, when he was the Prince of Zhan, he couldn't even keep his own daughter, forcing her to have Run away from home, what kind of prince are you? What kind of father are you?"

"Xintong..." Huyan Luoyi opened his mouth, which finally turned into a heavy and helpless sigh.

"I'm sorry that Ling'er is so small, and she's still a girl. I don't know if Ling'er brought enough money when she left, did she take good care of herself when she was alone outside, did she have enough food and clothing, and was she hurt by others?" Bullying...all the blame on that damn King Sui, it is his business that he wants to usurp the throne, why did he drag Zhan into the palace, why did he hurt my Ling'er?"

Huyan Luoyi's expression changed, and he hurriedly reminded in a low voice: "Xin Tong is careful in speaking, be careful that the walls have ears!"

Both the emperor and King Sui already knew the news that Ling'er had run away from home. Although they did not hold the palace accountable, they sent people to secretly monitor the movement of the palace. If Xintong's words reached the ears of the emperor and King Sui, the consequences could be imagined And know.

It doesn't matter if he and Xintong are dead, but how innocent are the relatives and other people in the palace?Especially Ling'er, how will she live after bearing the reputation of being the daughter of a criminal minister?

"Be careful! Be careful! You have been careful in your words and deeds all your life, and what did you get?"

After hearing this, Concubine Zhan was even more furious. Now that Ling'er has been forced to disappear, why should she have any scruples?

"You were stationed at the border gates, but some people said that you have made great achievements. You overcame all difficulties to support the emperor to ascend the throne, but the emperor turned around and dismissed your military power. You kept your duty as a courtier, but in the end you lost Ling'er's life. Happiness, is this the result of your loyalty to the emperor?"

Concubine Zhan is the direct daughter of General Zhen Guo, and has fought with General Zhen Guo many times on the battlefield, so she has inherited General Zhen Guo's bold and upright nature.

At the beginning, regardless of the opposition of his family, he insisted on marrying Huyan Luoyi, who was from a poor family and had the name of the champion of martial arts but no real power. Love their daughter very much, the two talents did not sever the relationship, and even later Huyan Luoyi supported the current Emperor Liang to succeed to the throne, and the general Zhen Guo naturally chose to advance and retreat together.

But Concubine Zhan has never flaunted her husband's and her mother's meritorious deeds from the dragon, but she is very low-key and humble in her life. If she hadn't been forced to rush this time, she would have lost control of her emotions. After all, Ling'er is theirs. The jewel in the palm of her hand has never suffered much since she was a child, but now she is forced to leave home, and she doesn't know what hardships she will encounter.

"Luoyi, although I am a housewife and don't understand the important affairs of the court, I also know that the emperor is no longer the diligent and wise emperor. Now I am obsessed with wine, sex and alchemy. On the surface, I am supervised by the prince. If you continue to be so foolish and loyal, not only will the Palace of the Prince of War be over, but the country and society will also be in jeopardy, do you understand?"

Huyan Luoyi sighed, with a trace of heaviness and helplessness in his brows and eyes: "Why don't I understand these truths, I just followed the emperor for many years, how could I betray the emperor? After all, at the beginning..."

"At the beginning, the former prince was outstanding in Wentao and Wushu, but it is a pity that because of a girl in a singing house, you lost everyone's hearts. You abandoned the former prince and supported the current emperor for the sake of the country. Now the emperor is fatuous, Sui Wang is ruthless, and the prince is orthodox. You It’s the prince’s teacher again, supporting the prince is justified, but also for the sake of the country, how can it be called betrayal?”

Huyan Luoyi pursed his lips and hesitated.

After many years of husband and wife, Concubine Zhan guessed some of Huyan Luoyi's thoughts, got up and walked to the door, opened the door and looked around carefully, then closed the door tightly, went back to the bed and sat down, took out a pillow from the pillow. A letter was handed to Huyan Luoyi: "This is the letter that my father sent secretly to me yesterday."

Huyan Luoyi raised his brows. Although he was once a great general who held a large army and was later conferred the title of King of War, he was far inferior to his father-in-law, who came from a family of generals. Therefore, the emperor dismissed his military power, but he did not dare to shake it easily. The father-in-law is not in the slightest, and now the father-in-law is still commanding an army of 30 troops stationed at the border.

Father-in-law already knew that the emperor bestowed a marriage on Linger and King Sui, and because his father-in-law always loved Linger more than his own grandchildren and grandchildren, and had always been quite disgusted with King Sui, could it be that he wrote at this time. . . . . .

Reaching out to take the letter, when Huyan Luoyi saw the contents clearly, his eyes gradually changed from initial doubts to shock, and finally condensed into a heavy, ups and downs mood. After turning the letter into ashes by candlelight, he lowered his voice and said: : "Why didn't the crown prince reveal anything to us about such a big matter?"

"Because the matter is so important, but you are loyal to the emperor, it is normal for the prince to have concerns."

Huyan Luoyi was silent after hearing this, Xintong was right, if the crown prince really revealed this matter to him, he would definitely be in a dilemma.

"Now that my father has made a choice, what about you? What are you going to do?"

"I......"

Huyan Luoyi was about to say something when a familiar voice suddenly came to his ears: "Father, Mother Concubine..." Both of them were stunned for a moment, Zhan Wangfei looked at Huyan Luoyi and said in surprise: " Luo Yi, do you think I miss Ling'er so much, that's why I have auditory hallucinations?"

"Probably not."

After all, he was a battle-tested general. After a brief daze, Huyan Luoyi immediately looked around vigilantly. When he saw that the originally closed window had been opened at some point, five figures came into view, and one of them was extremely beautiful. The woman he met was his beloved daughter, Ling'er, who was pleasantly surprised: "Ling'er, you, how did you come back?"

Ling'er had already jumped into the room, and rushed into the arms of Princess Zhan who was still in a daze.
