Leader Lan Palace

Chapter 306 Mind Clear (8 more)
Fu Heng led two horses and escorted Wanxi back.

"I will pick a gentle horse and send it to me later," he told me all the way, "if you insist on getting on the horse, then follow me closely. On the day of the siege, I will not fight for the first place. I will wait for everyone to gallop forward. I will take the opportunity to fall behind. Then you will try to move closer to me."

Wanxi didn't want to make him worry, so she stuck out her tongue playfully on purpose, and gave him a thumbs up: "Master Jiu is really good at riding!"

"The last time I was in the Old Summer Palace, watching Master Jiu riding and shooting from a distance; because I was far away, it was not as thrilling as watching it up close today."

Fu Heng sighed softly, and turned his head to look at the distant night sky.

"Speaking of...my riding skills were taught by the emperor himself."

Fu Heng's Ama passed away early, and because she was taken into the palace by the empress to teach her, she not only taught riding skills, but also taught many of them by the emperor himself.

Wanxi also thought of this verse, so she lowered her head and didn't say much, just said: "Oh."

The two were silent for a while, not knowing what to say.

The emperor is not here at this time, but the emperor is always there.

Just like when the three of them met for the first time together, the shadow of the three of them was imprinted together.Even though there are only the two of them in the wilderness world at this time, it is clear that when they look back, the shadow of the emperor is beside them.
.
When they reached the outermost gate of the imperial camp, about an arrow's distance away, Wanxi reached out to take the reins of the horse.

"Jiu Ye stayed behind. I was lazy and entered through this door. Please trouble Jiu Ye to get on the horse again, and go around to the other end again, and enter through the gate on the west side."

Although it is possible to walk, but because there is no palace wall to block it, it is necessary to be more careful where it should be.

Fu Heng finally couldn't help it, and stretched out his hand to grab Wanxi's arm: "Why... is it the emperor? You should also understand the situation in this harem, why do you ask yourself to stay in it?"

Wanxi smiled, and shook her head lightly: "I understand Jiuye's intentions. But in this world, the emperor has a harem; what man doesn't have a harem?"

Fu Heng trembled slightly: "Are you trying to say that I also have Lanpei and Ruxiang in my family?"

Wanxi smiled sideways: "I want to say Su Dongpo. Even though he left a poem of 'Ten years of life and death, don't think about it, never forget it' to mourn his beloved wife, but he still married his wife and cousin after all, and took a concubine. Chaoyun, I've never been truly lonely."

"There is also Rong Ruo, a great poet. Although he also wrote 'a couple for a lifetime', he also continued to marry, and took concubines from the Yan family...those beautiful women also nourished his literary talent."

Fu Heng was stunned, speechless.

Wanxi smiled lightly: "I also understand that men have their own difficulties. But since these people's marriages are still not free, how can Fourth Master be free? He was the prince before, and the wives and concubines in his mansion were all the late emperors. Refers to marriage, he has no choice but to not want it, let alone favor it."

"Later he was the Son of Heaven, holding the power of the Son of Heaven in his hands, but first of all he was subject to the strictest rules in the world. His marriage and his heirs were not just his private affairs, but were bound by the rules of the ancestors. Being supervised by all the people in the world, he even has to sacrifice to the world at all times...the grievances he has to endure may be more."

"I don't blame the ninth master, and I don't blame the fourth master either."

Wanxi said as she walked a few steps, reflecting the moonlight, she looked back with a smile.

"So I don't look at how many women there are in a man's back house, what I value is a man's heart."

"If you have me in your heart, I can also bear what women should bear; if you don't have me in your heart, even if I'm the only one in the yard, what's the point of going?"

Fu Heng took a deep breath: "Are you sure that the emperor has you in his heart?"

Wanxi turned around gracefully.

"I know . . . I'm there."
