His words made Shen Yijia worry.

“Let’s go home. In any case, we’ve saved Lin Shao and his sister and obtained the Heart Devouring Grass. There’s nothing to do if we continue to stay here.”

It had been more than three months since they came out. It would take them at least two months to go back. If they were late, there would be changes. It was unknown when Great Xia and the Wu Kingdom would fight, so it was indeed time to go back.

However…

Song Jingchen looked at her seriously. “Great Xia might not be peaceful.”

Shen Yijia said, “I know. It’s precisely because it’s not peaceful that we should go back early, so that Mother won’t be afraid at home.”

“Alright. You’re right. This is Sister Huan’s dream. As her big brother, I should support her.”

What did he mean?

Shen Yijia asked suspiciously, “Then you’re not planning to catch her?”

Song Jingchen shook his head. “She’s grown up.”

Shen Yijia thought to herself, “Who was the one who just reminded me that

Sister Huan wasn’t 12 years old yet?”

Song Jingchen rubbed her head and pulled her into his arms. He heaved a sigh of relief when Shen Yijia couldn’t see him.

The next day, during breakfast, Song Jingchen asked South Wind and Thirty Thousand to go out and ask about Great Xia and the Wu Kingdom.

There was no lack of merchants from Great Xia or the Wu Kingdom in Phoenix Town. The two of them asked around and found out.

After knowing that Great Xia and the Wu Kingdom had already had many small conflicts since the beginning of this month, the couple discussed and decided to set off tomorrow.

Since they were leaving, they naturally had to tell Xuanyuan Ce and Ji Luo.

It was impossible for Xuanyuan Ce to go to Great Xia with them. They mainly wanted to ask Ji Luo if she wanted to go with them.

In the central room, MO Yuan prepared tea for them.

Without waiting for Song Jingchen to speak, Xuanyuan Ce asked, “What is it? Are you preparing to go back?”

Song Jingchen nodded. “We’ve been out for three months. Now that the relationship between Great Xia and the Wu Kingdom is tense, I’m not at ease.”

Xuanyuan Ce slammed the teacup on the table and sneered. “Since you know that Great Xia is not peaceful now, why do you still want to go back with this girl?”

The Song family was originally a military family. Now that Song Jingchen had returned to Great Xia, he inevitably had to go to the battlefield. With his understanding of Shen Yijia, he would definitely follow her. How could Xuanyuan Ce be willing?

Song Jingchen stood up and bowed deeply to Xuanyuan Ce. He promised, “I’ll protect her and never let anything happen to her.”

He had long guessed that Xuanyuan Ce would have such a reaction. If Shen Yijia had hesitated at all last night, he would have left her here, but she didn’t.

Seeing his firm attitude, Xuanyuan Ce could not care less that Shen Yijia had yet to acknowledge his identity. He said, “What’s the use of guarantees? If you want to leave, leave yourself. My daughter has to stay in the Xuanyuan Kingdom. ”

Shen Yijia also slammed her teacup on the table, even louder than Xuanyuan

Ce. She took a few steps to Song Jingchen and roared, “Why are you so fierce?

It’s my freedom to go wherever I want. Why do you care?”

Before she could finish, Song Jingchen covered her mouth.

She blinked, indicating for Song Jingchen to let go.

Song Jingchen held his forehead and pressed her head into his arms. He looked at Xuanyuan Ce and said, “I know His Highness is doing this for Jiajia’s own good, but Jiajia is my wife now. She’s under the surname of the Song family. It’s said that one should follow one’s husband after getting married. I’m afraid His Highness has no right to keep her.”

“I’ll go with you,” Ji Luo said.

She naturally did not want to see her daughter in any danger, but she respected her decision.

Xuanyuan Ce was a little stunned by Shen Yijia’s roar. As soon as he came back to his senses, he heard Ji Luo’s words and his heart instantly shattered.

Lin Shao and his sister, who were sitting at the side, looked at each other and shrank back silently.

The sound of footsteps could be heard as Chu Feng strode in.

He whispered in Xuanyuan Ce’s ear and took out a letter.

After reading the letter, Xuanyuan Ce looked at Song Jingchen. “I’m afraid you can’t leave.”

What was the meaning of this? Was he going to imprison them by force if he couldn’t convince them?

“Xuanyuan Ce!” Ji Luo’s expression was ugly. She did not expect Xuanyuan Ce to become so stubborn after not seeing him for more than ten years.

“I’m not done yet.” Xuanyuan Ce put away his annoying expression and looked at Song Jingchen. “The Wu Kingdom sent an envoy to our country with a princess. You should understand what this means. Are you sure you want to leave at this time?”

It was impossible for the citizens of Phoenix City not to discuss such a huge matter. As long as South Wind and Thirty Thousand heard anything, they would tell him.

Song Jingchen suspected that Xuanyuan Ce was lying to him.

Seeing through his thoughts, Xuanyuan Ce said angrily, “They came to visit in secret, do you understand?”

With that, he threw the letter in his hand over to Song Jingchen. “Look at it yourself.”

The letter was written by Xuanyuan Ziming. It was a long paragraph and could be summarized in one word: Help!

In order to express goodwill to the Xuanyuan Kingdom, the Wu Kingdom personally brought their princess over.

If the princess of a kingdom was not taken into the harem, she would at least be able to marry one of the princes. However, the emperor of the Xuanyuan Kingdom had not added anyone to the harem for many years. Among the three princes of the royal family, only Xuanyuan Ziming had yet to get married. If the Xuanyuan Kingdom really kept her, the emperor would definitely let him marry the princess of the Wu Kingdom.

He did not want to marry. He wrote this letter in hopes that Xuanyuan Ce would rush back to save him.

If not for the fact that this was the right time, Xuanyuan Ce would not have opened this letter.

This matter concerned the relationship between the two countries. It wasn’t a simple matter. If he went back to save Xuanyuan Ziming, wouldn’t he have to take in that princess?

Song Jingchen held the letter and didn’t say anything for a long time. Shen Yijia looked up at him. “Hubby?”

“I’m afraid we’ll have to go to the imperial city of the Xuanyuan Kingdom first,” Song Jingchen said.

If the Xuanyuan Kingdom cooperated with the Wu Kingdom, Great Xia would have no chance of winning.

Therefore, no matter what, he had to think of a way to stir up this matter.

From the looks of it, the few harassments by the Wu Kingdom against Great Xia were just a smokescreen.

In that case, he did not have to worry about Great Xia and the Wu Kingdom fighting in the short term..
