Oh my god, I became the vicious stepmother of four villains

But unexpectedly, Lu Ziren had received an urgent letter from the secret guard before that night.

Lu Ziren unfolded the note and frowned even more when he saw the contents.

Things turned out just as Lu Ziren had expected. The Sixth Prince had been secretly colluding with the barbarians in the northern border, hoping to play the thief crying "stop thief" in order to gain the emperor's favor.

The news had already been received long before Lu Ziren and had been passed on to the northern border at full speed. Now the northern border has been very strict in guarding against the barbarians, and they have even coordinated very carefully to plan a mantis stalking cicada, while the oriole is behind.

Beijing really can't do without him. Although Lieutenant General Li is at the helm throughout the whole process, it is obvious that Lieutenant General Li is not as experienced as Lu Ziren in major events.

Xia Yingying was planning to look for some places in Beijing suitable for their travel these days. While Lu Ziren was still around, the family would go out for a trip.

But plans cannot keep up with changes, and Xia Yingying has just finalized a hot spring villa.

He was just planning to tell Xia Yingying and the kids that they wanted to go together and bring Qin Qingfeng with them, but the prerequisite was that Qin Qingfeng also had to make a human skin mask.

Lu Ziren had received the news a long time ago, but didn't know how to tell Xia Yingying.

During this time, he has Xia Yingying and the children with him, and he really can't bear to leave them.

But I had to leave.

Lu Ziren was planning to find a suitable opportunity to tell Xia Yingying, but he knew that Xia Yingying had been very excited about finding places to go these days.

Because he had already told Xia Yingying that he might leave the capital early.

So Xia Yingying planned to find that place within one day and take her family out the next day, but she didn't expect that time was so tight that it was impossible to realize it.

Lu Ziren naturally saw how hard Xia Yingying had worked in the past two days, so he couldn't bear to tell Xia Yingying about it.

Xia Yingying had already noticed that Lu Ziren was hesitant, as if he had something to say to him. He was still walking around after dinner, and he looked very anxious. She didn't know what Lu Ziren wanted to say, but when he looked at her, he hesitated to speak. Xia Yingying finally couldn't help asking him, "What's wrong with Lu Ziren?"

"Yingying, I, I have something to tell you." Lu Ziren suddenly began to stutter.

"What's the matter?" Xia Yingying asked straightforwardly.

"Yes..." Lu Ziren's eyes couldn't help but look at the books that Xia Yingying was flipping through, and Xia Yingying understood instantly.

"Are you going to Beijing and can't stay here?"

Xia Yingying continued to ask.

Lu Ziren lowered his eyes like a depressed puppy. His voice was very lost, "Yeah."

Xia Yingying suddenly felt that this was not a big deal at all, as Lu Ziren had told her about it before.

He is going to Beijing, probably in these few days.

"It's okay. Your job is very important. Just go ahead and do it. I'm at home and I will take good care of the children." Xia Yingying immediately said to Lu Ziren.

"Yingying, I'm really sorry. I clearly promised you, but I always broke my promise in the end. Your expectations were dashed, and you were busy for nothing these past two days." Lu Ziren said to Xia Yingying, suppressing the discomfort in his heart.

Xia Yingying smiled. "It's nothing serious. My efforts are not in vain. I have gained a lot these days. When you are free in the future, we can visit all the attractions I want to visit. Our family has always been together. There is a long way to go. Why rush?"

Xia Yingying spoke very casually and didn't care at all.

When Lu Ziren heard Xia Yingying say this, she still felt a little sad, but at this point, she had no better way and could only say sorry again.

Seeing that Lu Ziren was still immersed in his previous emotions, Xia Yingying immediately stepped forward, took Lu Ziren's hand and patted it.

"Then when are you going? I can prepare something for you." Xia Yingying asked Lu Ziren.

"Today." Lu Ziren continued.

"So urgent." Xia Yingying was even more surprised. She originally thought that she still had one night to prepare the ceremony, so she could prepare some dry food for Lu Ziren. "Wait for me, I'll get you some dry food or something."

Xia Yingying said this and turned around to help Lu Ziren prepare dry food for the journey.

But Lu Ziren grabbed Xia Yingying's hand.

"Wait a minute, Yingying, listen to me first. The people in the dry food house have prepared the food for me on the way. I don't know how to tell you. Now, I have to go. I'm sorry, Yingying."

Xia Yingying frowned.

However, Lu Ziren held Xia Yingying tightly in his arms.

"Yingying, wait for me to come back."

Lu Ziren stayed in Xia Yingying's room for a long time, and finally gave Xia Yingying a deep kiss on her lips.

Lu Ziren kissed her so hard that Xia Yingying's teeth were almost knocked out.

But Xia Yingying said nothing, because it would be very embarrassing to say anything at this time.

"Yingying, I won't tell the children's mother and Doctor Qin. You can tell them tomorrow. If someone comes to the mansion to inquire about me, you can say that I am recuperating in the mansion due to health reasons. If someone really comes, you can say that I went out to seek medical treatment."

Because there is still a long time before Lu Ziren's vacation. So it's okay even if he doesn't come for such a long time, but I don't know if Lu Ziren can solve those problems during this time.

"Okay. If you have anything to say when you arrive at the military camp, you can write to me." Xia Yingying said.

"Okay. Remember to write to me in the future. Give your heart to the secret guard who protects you. He will convey it to me in other ways and it will not fall into the hands of others." Lu Ziren instructed.

"Okay." Xia Yingying nodded.

When Lu Ziren was about to leave, Xia Yingying suddenly called him.

"Lu Ziren, wait a moment, I have something to give you."

Lu Ziren stopped and was looking forward to what Xia Yingying would give him.

It was a hairpin or a purse or something with special meaning. Maybe it was the amulet that Xia Yingying had prayed for him a long time ago.

Xia Yingying immediately ran to her jewelry box and rummaged through it. After a while, she finally took out the bag that she had bought from the old lady's stall and put it in Lu Ziren's hand.

"This is..." This bag is obviously for girls. What would it look like in the hands of a grown man like him?

"It's embroidered with bats all over. It means good fortune, happiness and well-being. I hope everything goes well for you out there."

Xia Yingying very solemnly placed the bag embroidered with bats in Lu Ziren's hand.

After hearing Xia Yingying's words, Lu Ziren's heart felt as sweet as if it were dipped in a bowl of sweet water.

At first, Lu Ziren was very confused as to why Xia Yingying put this feminine bag in his hand, but he didn't expect that it was a sincere blessing from Xia Yingying.

Xia Yingying cares about him and she is afraid that something might happen to him.

"Yingying, don't worry, I will definitely come back safely." Lu Ziren said, hugging Xia Yingying tightly in his arms. "Happy New Year, may everything go well in the new year, and may all your wishes come true.
