Until this moment, Meng Yi was even more sure that he really fell in love with her! The love that came in hindsight probably started from the expedition to Qi!

This seemingly perfect but inappropriate love caught Meng Yi off guard.

"Why...the person you love in your heart is Meng Tian?"

Meng Yi smiled bitterly.

Under the dim candlelight, Yi Xin's sleeping face was seen. Her brows were slightly relaxed, but her lips were still moving from time to time. Whose name was she calling?

He thought of her rejection and rejection of this marriage, and also thought of her restraint and helplessness on the wedding night. Everything seems to be out of order, and the three people's emotions have become a wrong bridge, leading people to the wrong place.

"What should I do? How can I make you look forward to this marriage? Your heart is not here, but in another place. How can you be willing to stay by my side?"

Meng Yi is in pain and uneasy, and has to face the fact that Yi Xin doesn't have her in her heart. If this continues, not only will she not be happy, but she will also become more and more miserable.

Why, it must be Meng Tian?

He looked at the wintersweet that Meng Tian had folded by himself on the bedside. It was now placed in a very delicate vase. The fragrance of the wintersweet was spreading in the room, but it made Meng Yi feel more and more miserable.

Fortunately, Yi Xin's condition was not serious, and the fever subsided after just one night.

"Princess, what do you think? Are you feeling better?"

After having a high fever all night, Yi Xin was in a daze. She froze in front of the bed, looking at a large number of maids and slaves surrounding her. She was in a daze for a long time before she remembered that she felt unwell when she returned home.

"Am I sick?"

"Yes, yes, you had a high fever all night, which scared us all! General Meng has been guarding you all night!"

"Meng Yi?"

"Yes! The general will not let us watch. He must personally guard you. Now he has just entered the palace and gone to court! He has only left not long ago."

Yi Xin was stunned. She looked at her palm, which still had the warmth of Meng Yi. How could she believe that Meng Yi could care about her so much? After keeping watch all night...how is this possible!

The slave beside him said again

"General Meng was so anxious last night that he urged the doctor to come and see him. He kept an eye on the doctor during the consultation and repeatedly asked him if anything was okay. He waited until the doctor was sure that everything was okay before he felt at ease! You see... you were burned and confused last night. , this medicine was given by General Meng himself."

Meng Yi entered the palace and saw Ying Zheng. He did not say anything else, but expressed his hope that he could go north with Meng Tian to kill the Xiongnu.

"But, you are going to war just after getting married, how can you let go of the princess!"

Of course Ying Zheng didn't understand the reason, but Meng Yi had made up his mind and no one could change it.

"As a minister, you should give top priority to national affairs. Besides, the princess and Meng Yi are of the same mind, so naturally we can understand."

Now that there is a shortage of generals, it is natural for Meng Tian to lead the troops to repel the Xiongnu. But if Meng Yi goes with him, the victory rate will be 100%! How could Ying Zheng not agree?

After getting off, Chao Mengtian grabbed Meng Yi and asked

"Why do you want to fight off the Huns with me? Wouldn't it be better to stay at home?"

Meng Yi has respected Meng Tian as his brother since he was a child, and now naturally he will not be angry with Yi Xin because he likes him. He just smiled and pretended to have high fighting spirit and said

"We haven't gone on an expedition together as brothers for a long time. Wouldn't it be better if I could help you! You can rest assured!"

"But... you won't be able to come back from the expedition anytime soon. What should the princess do?"

"The princess won't blame me..."

Meng Yi was a little helpless

"She is the eldest princess of the Qin Dynasty, so she naturally puts the country first, so how can she love her children?"

There was no way to express the pain in his heart, so Meng Yi packed his bags when he returned home.

"I will go on an expedition against the Huns the day after tomorrow. Don't tell the princess yet. Don't mention it until I leave."

"But……"

Mi Xiu hurriedly advised

"If you don't tell the eldest princess about such a big thing, what should you do if she blames you?"

"She won't blame you. Maybe...she won't care at all about my leaving."

Meng Yi looked at the military uniform in front of him and asked again

"How is the princess doing today? Is she feeling better?"

"The fever is gone, and he is probably still in bed resting now."

The two had dinner together, but Yi Xin was silent during the dinner. Meng Yi thought she was still unwell, so he spoke with concern.

"You had a high fever last night. Although it has gone down now, if you still feel uncomfortable anywhere, be sure to say don't bear it."

Yi Xin, who was silent, just ate in silence. It turned out that she was not thinking about anything else, but how to express her gratitude to Meng Yi. Last night, he stayed with him all night without even closing his eyes. He even gave him medicine himself. Except for his father Fusu, no man cared about him like this.

Yi Xin was naturally full of gratitude, but she couldn't say the word "thank you".

It is easy to say thank you, but it is not easy either. What's more, now that he and I are officially married?

Yi Xin took two sips of soup and responded weakly.

"It feels a lot better to show up."

"Although the sun was nice yesterday, it was still a little chilly. Your clothes were too thin and you got frostbite."

Meng Yi ate his meal and asked again as if nothing had happened.

"Yesterday you were dressed so richly, why on earth? I thought you would wear simple clothes for hunting!"

"It's nothing. Women love to be beautiful. Even if they go hunting, they still want to be beautiful. Isn't it... inappropriate?"

Meng Yi knew that she was looking for an excuse, and there was no point in exposing it, so he just smiled and said

"Of course, you are the eldest princess of Great Qin, so there is no reason why you can't."

After the meal, Yi Xin still didn't say thank you. She was hesitant and kept missing opportunities until Meng Yi returned to the study.

"Princess, you asked the general to stay in the study all the time. If the queen knows about it, she will definitely blame her."

Yi Xin's personal maid reminded.

Watching him go away, Yi Xin's heart was full of mixed feelings and she didn't know how to sort them out.

"He didn't say he wanted to stay...maybe he also likes to live in the study!"

Meng Yi sat alone in front of the desk in the study, looking at the pen and ink in front of him in a daze. After a long time, he picked up the pen and wrote a row of words on the wooden slip.

On the second day, Yi Xin went to the palace early to say hello, and the two of them had no chance to meet. Yi Xin did not come back until just before dinner.

"Have you been seen by the imperial doctor in the palace? Is your body recovering well?"

"Okay! The royal doctor said that the princess is in good health and it's just a minor problem."

"Is your injured leg worth looking at?"

Meng Yi seemed to be particularly concerned about Yi Xin tonight.

"Look..."

Yi Xin grabbed her rice and looked at Meng Yi's constant care in front of her. She wanted to say thank you, but she was hesitant...
