After nearly four months of fierce fighting, Mu State won a great victory. Beilan ceded the three cities of Yeyang, Pingyi, and Wuchun to Mu State.

Pei Yi left all the remaining affairs to the deputy commander-in-chief, and rode thousands of miles alone, rushing back to Xunyang in a hurry.

He missed Shen Jiahe, he was crazy, he wanted to see him, the sooner the better.

Pei Yi returned to Xunyang in only ten days.

He went straight to the Prince's Mansion, and the servants were shocked when they saw him.

"Where's Jiahe?" Pei Yi excitedly said, "Let him come out to see me!"

Shen Luoyu arrived after hearing the news, bowed her head and said: "I will see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Get up," Pei Yi said, "Where is Jiahe? Why don't you come out to meet me?"

Shen Luoyu looked sad, and said sadly: "Jiahe...he can't come out to meet His Highness."

Pei Yi frowned and said, "Why?"

Shen Luoyu said: "Your Highness, please come with me, you will know at a glance."

She went first, and Pei Yi followed in a daze.

Shen Luoyu brought Pei Yi to Shen Jiahe's original residence, but Shen Jiahe was not here.

Shen Luoyu raised his hand and pointed, "Your Highness, please take a look."

Pei Yi looked in the direction of her finger, and saw a spirit tablet with the words "Shen Jiahe's spirit seat" written on it.

Pei Yi suspected that he had read it wrong, walked closer, stared at the spirit tablet for a moment, then raised his hand suddenly and knocked it over, then turned his head to stare at Shen Luoyu.

Those eyes were too terrifying, even Shen Luoyu, who was as calm as Shen Luoyu, couldn't help shivering, and couldn't help but back away.

Pei Yi came over and grabbed her shoulders with both hands like iron pliers, causing her to gasp in pain.

"Where is he? Did he run away again? So you conspired with me to lie to me? Do you think I'll believe you?" Pei Yi's face was cold, and his voice was as cold as ice, "Tell me where he is, or I'll immediately Kill you!"

Shen Luoyu reluctantly took out the letter that she had been carrying close to her body and handed it to Pei Yi, saying: "On the third day of Your Highness's expedition, Jiahe was announced into the palace by an imperial decree. Before he left, he gave me this letter and asked I will hand it over to Your Highness after His Highness returns in triumph."

Pei Yi hesitated for a moment, then reached out to take the letter, and said, "You just said... to enter the palace?"

"Yes," Shen Luoyu said with tears in her eyelashes, choking slightly, "He was fine when he entered the palace, but when he came back... he was dead."

Pei Yi seemed to be struck by lightning, his face full of disbelief.

He eagerly opened the letter, which was in a font he was all too familiar with.

"Pei Yi:

I just looked at your back in the wind and snow, and I had a vague premonition in my heart that we will never have a chance to meet again in this life.I'm a little sad, I stood by the door for a long time, secretly looking forward to your return.But you didn't come back, I went back to the house and wrote this letter.I thought for a long time with my pen in my hand, and only thought of three things to tell you.The first thing is to raise Nian Nian well.I don't ask him to do much, I just hope that he can be safe and smooth, and be healthy all year round.There are turmoil in the royal family, I really don't want to see him involved in it, you should know what I mean.The second thing is that I don't want to be buried in the soil and be bitten by insects, so you can burn me and scatter my ashes in the yard of Shen's desolate house, I like it there.The third thing is to forget about me as soon as possible.It is said that if the living person has too much obsession, the soul of the dead cannot be reincarnated and can only wander in the world.I don't want to be a lonely ghost, I want to enter reincarnation as soon as possible.I have lived such a hard life in this life, Lord Yan should take pity on me and let me have a good birth in the next life.Pei Yi, we won't meet again in the next life.I don't want to be entangled with you anymore, I want to live a normal life.There's nothing more to say, that's all.I will stop bothering you from now on, and I wish you well for the rest of your life.

Handwritten by Shen Jiahe on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. "

Pei Yi trembled all over, holding the letter and going out.

As soon as he got to the door, he suddenly held onto the door frame, wept bitterly, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell straight down.
