The empress is pregnant, and the emperor's incense continues

"What? Are you saying that our two countries are making peace and your sister is not here? Are you willing to let Yaoyao come and be my queen in the name of your sister?"

Seeing that Yu Wenhu was so happy that he almost lost his demeanor as a king of a country, Meng Lan smiled heartily and said: "But there is one condition."

"After the emperor finds Yaoyao, he must let her live in our Southern Tang Dynasty for a year, cultivate a relationship with us, and then come to the Northern Wei Dynasty to get married."

Thinking that Meng Wenyao could become his wife openly, Yuwenhu gritted his teeth and promised: "Okay."

It’s only one year. After one year, he and Meng Wenyao can live together forever.

"Your Majesty promised easily. If you can't find Yaoyao, all this will be for nothing."

"No, I will definitely find her if I go to heaven or to earth."

The palace has been searched several times. Now that the imperial city has been closed down, the troops of the five cities are already searching door to door. He has a feeling in his heart that Meng Wenyao has not gone far and will return to him soon.

While there was a lot of commotion outside, Meng Wenyao was quietly confinement in the East Palace.

From time to time, Meng Lan regretted in her heart: "I shouldn't have said one year, I should have said three or five years."

"Sister, this is the best result now, but things will change later. If you really keep me for another three to five years, what if Yuwenhu and Xixia go against each other and he regrets marrying me? By then, won't our Southern Tang Dynasty be the best? Fetching water from a bamboo basket is all in vain.”

"No, I don't think Yu Wenhu will give up on you."

The two sisters had only said a few words when they heard the palace servants come in in a panic.

"Princess, the Imperial Guards are here again, saying they are searching again. They think the assassins of Xixia may still be hiding in the palace."

The two of them looked at each other and saw caution in each other's eyes. Meng Lanxin stood up and said, "I'll go take a look. You can stay calm. They shouldn't dare to enter my dormitory yet."

After a period of chaos, Meng Lanxin came back and said tiredly: "This Yu Wenhu is really capable. He even asked people to check the prison several times. I'm afraid the capital has already dug five feet of ground."

"So, I am afraid that the East Palace will be searched again. Maybe Yu Wenhu has already suspected that I am hidden in the East Palace. Sister, there is still no solution for me here. Let's discuss what to do next!"

Although they wanted to spend more time with Meng Wenyao so that the two sisters could talk about the changes in the past few years, the current situation was turbulent and now was not a good time to gossip.

It was another dark and windy night, and the Imperial Guard reported to Yuwen Hu again: "Your Majesty, the Xixia assassin visited the palace again at night, seemingly to rescue the Xixia princess."

"Annihilate them all at all costs."

After what happened last time, Ashina was imprisoned in a secret prison in the palace. The person in the palace now is just a palace maid pretending to be a palace maid.

When Xixia's assassins come this time, they will not only be unable to save Ashina, but they will never return.

Yu Wenhu had better put on a cruel smile. He was going to the secret cell to greet Ashina again, but he couldn't let her die too easily.

Before reaching the secret prison, the leader of the Imperial Guard hurriedly found Yu Wenhu.

"Your Majesty, something bad has happened. Xixia's assassins brought the nobleman with them this time. They said they couldn't see their princess, so..."

He didn't say the rest of the words, because Yu Wenhu had already disappeared into the vast night, leaving behind a sentence: "Tia Ashina, come here."

In a remote palace, the two parties were in a cold confrontation.

"Hand over our princess, otherwise this noble man will not see the sun tomorrow."

As soon as an assassin spoke, Meng Wenyao said tightly: "Your Majesty, don't worry about the servants. You must not give Princess Ashina to them. The family and country are at the forefront, and the death of a servant is not a pity."

In the quiet night, Meng Wenyao's shouts seemed particularly tragic and moving. The Imperial Guards who had been complaining again in order to find him in the past few days couldn't help but feel a little moved.

She was worthy of being the woman that the emperor fell in love with. She was indeed not a petty lover. She still thought about her family and country at the critical moment of life and death.

Compared to the Imperial Guards, Yu Wenhu was trembling all over and his eyes were red.

The person he longed for was indeed fine. Even though she was kidnapped by Xixia assassins, she was still fearless in the face of danger and put the overall situation first. Sure enough, he loved her deeply.

He tried his best to control his trembling voice and shouted: "Yao Yao, don't be afraid, I will definitely protect you."

"Someone, throw Ashina over."

A dark shadow flashed across the night. Meng Wenyao lowered her head and saw that Ashina had been thrown beside her, looking lifeless.

An assassin pulled up the black shadow and raised the torch forward. Meng Wenyao saw clearly that it was Ashina, but the injuries all over his body showed that Yu Wenhu was not polite at all.

She couldn't help but feel a chill running down her back, this Yu Wenhu was quite cruel.

In the dark night, she whispered to the assassin behind her: "The most important thing for you is to leave the palace safely. You can throw away Ashina at the critical moment."

On the opposite side, Yu Wenhu had already surrounded the imperial army. He raised his voice and said, "Let my woman go, or none of you will be able to escape."

The assassins on Meng Wenyao's side also shouted: "Yuwenhu, ask your people to evacuate. As long as we rescue the princess, we will definitely return your woman to you intact."

The two parties exchanged words for a while, and Yu Wenhu's side stepped forward cautiously, for fear of provoking the assassin and hurting Meng Wenyao.

The assassin on Meng Wenyao's side stepped back cautiously. The two parties carefully maintained the distance, for fear that the other party would not uphold the moral principles of the world, and quickly reached the corner gate of the palace.

"The palace door has been opened. Let my people come over quickly. You can run away. I promise not to hunt you down."

Seeing that they were about to leave, Meng Wenyao explained again: "The most important thing is your safety. This Xixia princess wants to harm you and will be thrown out at any time to save her life."

"Don't worry, princess. As long as we don't have to worry about this, escaping from the palace won't be a problem."

Each of them used Meng Wenyao as a human shield and quickly fled out of the palace gate.

Seeing that everyone was about to escape, Meng Wenyao pretended to be anxious at this time and shouted: "Your Majesty, don't let them escape, shoot the arrow quickly, it is not a pity for the slave to die, don't let the Xixia spies go, there will be endless troubles if the tiger returns to the mountain!" "

"Your Majesty, the Xixia people are ambitious, they..."

Before she could finish her words, she was pushed forward violently, her eyes were dazzled, and she fell into the arms of Yu Wenhu, who was running towards her.

When she turned back, all the assassins had escaped. She concealed her joy, held Yuwenhu's hand tightly, and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, hurry up, we can't let them escape, especially Ashina. If she leaves, , will definitely encourage Xixia to go to war."

"Yao Yao, are you okay? Are you injured anywhere? Can you please let me see?"
