Spoiling a Good Young Wife
96

Su Zijin nodded obediently in Xue Zhan's arms and pursed his red lips: well, I will wait for you to return.

When Xue Zhan heard this, he could not help but tightly hug Su Zijin's small body. He thought, it took effort to convince Su Zijin, and Su Zijin would even cry, but he did not expect, Su Zijin not only did not cry, he even agreed.

It actually made a warm current flow through his heart. He swore, in his life, he would only recognize this woman named Su Zijin, and not another woman.

Late at night in the palace, in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the lights were brightly lit, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty looked solemn, frowned, and with chaotic eyes, looked at the memorial being pushed on the table, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty looked solemn, frowned, as well as some important letters sent from the border, his eyes were increasingly colored with layers of mist.

At this moment, a young eunuch hurriedly entered, kneeling before the emperor and reporting: your Majesty, prince Xiao commanded a hundred thousand soldiers in Shaoshan last night, and rushed to the north. It takes about four or five days to reach the frontier.

When the emperor heard this, his thick eyes suddenly bloomed, He released a beam of light, dispelling the gloom on his face, and looking overjoyed: There he is, very good, very good.

After saying that, he coughed. The eunuch beside him directly supported the emperor whose body was weak, then afterwards, he said happily: Your Highness, now that prince Xiao has gone out of the mountain again, he said happily, he can definitely drive out the Mobei Army from our Ming Dynasty in no time.

The Emperor, who was already in his sixties, his condition was getting worse by the day. However, Mobei violently attacked the current Ming Dynasty. Therefore, the emperor could not sleep well for more than a month.

Now that he had heard Prince Xiao return, how could he not be excited?

"He can still come back. I'm afraid she's still thinking about Princess Huimin. As long as she returns victoriously, I will definitely marry Princess Huimin to her as her concubine." The Emperor touched his chest, and reminisced about what happened three years ago, which was still fresh in his memory.

"Your Majesty, I will help you return to your bedroom and rest well. You've worked too hard!" As Kasim De said, he patted the emperor on the back and helped the emperor walk towards the bedroom.

At Huimin Palace, a palace maid dressed in pink palace attire quickly ran into the palace, and said to the beautifully dressed young lady sitting near the guzheng, while meditating: 'Stop: Princess, good news, Prince Xiao has returned.

“What did you say?” the beautiful-faced woman immediately turned around, and a flickering light flashed across her eyes, which instantly erased the sadness on her brows.

“Prince Xiao has returned!” The palace maid looked happier than Princess Huimin.

Huimin's pretty face was full of excitement, but the white and soft snowy skin suddenly lost all its color, he turned around again and lowered his eyebrows: so what if he came back? I'm afraid he'll never forgive me in this life.

"Daughter, don't say that, the reason why prince Xiao could return, and lead his army into battle again this time, must be because he still had the princess in his heart, Otherwise, it would be, given the temperament of prince Xiao, he could have just left, and how could he care about the life and death of the Ming Dynasty?" An Rong reprimanded from the side.

There was a hint of doubt in Huimin's countenance and voice: then, tell me, can he still forgive me?

"But, after all, I killed his brother. To this day, I never forget what he told me and the look on his face that day. He didn't even see me before he left." Huimin was very conflicted, He wanted Xue Zhan to forgive him, but he was also afraid that Xue Zhan would not be able to forgive him.

"Daughter, it's been three years since that happened. After all, what happened back then was not the daughter's fault alone. After all, it was the emperor's decision, and the princess couldn't resist that decision." An Rong is still there, suggesting.

Huimin nodded slightly when he heard this, but then he suddenly thought of his current identity, and the sadness and worry on his face became even stronger: then, then, will he like my unpleasant body? .

Five years ago, she was still the palace princess of the general. In that year, at the royal hunting ground, the emperor suddenly met an assassin. Despite his personal safety, his father blocked the killer's poisonous sword for the emperor,

and finally died. The Emperor saw her, lonely and helpless, but also grateful for her father's kindness, he accepted her as his adopted daughter, appointed her as Princess Huimin, and allowed her marriage to the seventh prince to be held first.

However, just a month before the wedding, the seventh prince suddenly died overnight, the outside world thought of him as an unpleasant person, and his sister, who had a close relationship with him, were all at odds with him, she said, they were afraid that they would be polluted by every aura. And from then on, no one dared to ask her about the marriage proposal.

“The prince is a free man, how could he not like the princess? If the princess is willing to marry the prince, it will be too late for the prince to be happy!”

Huimin listened to An Rong say this, his white skin, not only blushing red on his face, but he was also very clear, about Xue Zhan's love for him. No matter what he had done before, Xue Zhan would forgive him unconditionally and trust him.

But now, three years had passed since his last appointment, and he had no idea where Xue Zhan's heart was now.

“Then, the prince won't like my aging appearance, right?” Huimin noticed that the face on the bronze mirror was still smooth, bright, but not as moist as a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl. Even the corner of his eye had a layer of small wrinkles.

This year he was twenty-six years old, a woman his age was married and had children, but he was not married yet.

An Rong immediately said with relief: Oh, princess, your appearance is one of the best among your friends, and you take good care of your skin. Your skin is so soft it almost boils. If you stand next to those little girls, people think, you are only ten years old.

Huimin felt burdened by An Rong's harsh praise. She put aside her worries and had An Rong comb her hair into a bun like some young girl in front of the bronze mirror.

Looking at herself in the bronze mirror with a beautiful smile and beautiful eyes, she seemed to return to her seventeen or eighteen years of age. The tall figure of Xue Zhan, and always standing firmly behind him, stuck out his wide and sturdy palm, and smiled gently at him.

The weather was getting warmer by the day, but due to the massive assault of the Mobei Army on the border fortress it had disappeared.

Bad news spread, that the imperial court had ordered conscription to come, and made the common people panic.

The price of necessity increased, as rice, noodles, and radishes could normally be bought with twenty copper coins, probably now unavailable, even with a hundred copper coins.
