after i found out my new wife was a man

Three days later, the battle at the border spread to the mainland.

Xie Linghe's hand holding the secret note trembled slightly, and his Adam's apple trembled. In the end, he just wiped his face, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes were slightly red: "I woke up at night with a start, and I was thinking too much just looking forward to it."

He Yaoqing's face was also gloomy. He looked at the red eyes of the man in front of him, and said for a long while, "I broke my promise and failed to protect Lord Hou."

"Blame yourself for what you are doing," Xie Lingyu looked up at him, "Since my father is on the city wall, I think he is already prepared, and no one can replace him in such a situation. When he left the imperial city, he said that he could go to the battlefield It’s a good thing, now that the enemy army has been repelled, I’m sure I’ll be gratified when I wake up.”

But as he said this, his eyes became more and more red.

After all, everyone understands the truth, but worry will never stop because of it.

He Yaoqing caressed the corners of his reddish eyes, his eyes were firm: "It's almost over."

Xie Ling looked sideways, and buried his cheek in his palm.

Perhaps only in front of this person, General Xie, who seemed invulnerable in the eyes of outsiders as if clad in steel and iron, could vaguely reveal some fragility.

And at this very moment, a decree from Emperor Jingren came from outside the mansion.

——But he wants to call He Yaoqing into the palace.

Of course, Emperor Jing Ren had also received the battle situation, if not for this, he would not have summoned He Yaoqing suddenly.

When He Yaoqing entered the hall, Emperor Jing Ren was stroking a paperweight in his hand, staring blankly ahead, wondering what he was thinking.

He Yaoqing leaned over to salute, with beautiful temples and long skirt dragging the floor behind him: "See Father."

Seeing that Emperor Jingren didn't answer, he raised his head and looked up, his eyes were innocent, in Emperor Jingren's eyes, she was really a beautiful and unsophisticated eldest princess, and she really lived up to him for many years Since the "teaching".

According to the past, he should have been complacent in his heart, and eagerly asked him to get up with kindness on his face, but today he only stared at He Yaoqing and did not speak.

He Yaoqing's expression remained unchanged, and he scanned his haggard face inch by inch, but his heart was filled with joy.

"Get up," Emperor Jing Ren finally said, with probing and scrutinizing eyes, "You are now...the emperor hasn't called you into the palace for a long time, are you comfortable during this time?"

He Yaoqing just acted as if he couldn't see anything, and smiled: "The son-in-law is very kind to my son-in-law, and he also said that he has won frequent victories at the border. When the army returns in triumph, he will take his son-in-law to travel around the world."

"The young man is talking nonsense." Emperor Jing Ren reprimanded, wanted to continue to say something, but stopped abruptly.

His description is unpredictable, making it impossible to see whether he has regretted what he has done up to this moment, and what he is planning now. Only the two lips parted and parted, and finally he wanted to speak. In an instant, Eunuch Yuan broke into the hall suddenly, his expression flustered and joyful.

"Your Majesty! We have found His Highness the Fourth Prince! Your Highness is as blessed as heaven, fell off a cliff and was rescued by a farmer, and is now in the Prince's Mansion!"

Emperor Jingren got up abruptly: "Quick! Drive to the Prince's Mansion!"

As he spoke, he quickly got up and walked out. He paused for a moment when he passed by He Yaoqing, and finally said: "You go back first, and I will summon you again in a few days."

He Yaoqing slowly raised his head, and the wanton sunlight in the afternoon was slanting in. For a moment, Emperor Jing Ren seemed to see that this man had the uprightness and strength of a man, and then he couldn't see anything in a blink of an eye.

He Yaoqing still had a gentle smile, and Emperor Jing Ren was in a hurry to go to the Prince's Mansion, thinking that he was wrong.

In Ling'an Garden, when He Yaoqing returned to the mansion, Xie Lingyu finally breathed a sigh of relief: "What does Emperor Jingren want you for?"

"Who knows," He Yaoqing laughed softly, summoned his subordinates, and ordered, "Go and find out what happened to the Fourth Prince."

Xie Lingyu was surprised: "Have you found the fourth prince?"

"I couldn't find his body at the time. I thought there were no bones left. I didn't expect that Fu Da's life was so great that he came back with a life." He Yaoqing smiled, but he really didn't see it. May he do his duty, and don't think about other things, otherwise it will be difficult for the gods to save him."

However, the news that came later dispelled their worries.

In the Fourth Prince's Mansion, Emperor Jing Ren was panting heavily, and the imperial doctor who was kneeling on the ground in front of him was furious, "What did you say?!"

Kneeling at the front of the Imperial Hospital, the head hangs even lower: "Your Highness was seriously injured when he fell from the cliff. If he was treated in time that day, his left leg may still fully recover, but it has been more than ten days now. There is really no way out!"

The veins on Emperor Jingren's neck popped up: "If there is no other way, then come up with a way for me. If the fourth prince's legs can't be cured, I don't think you want your legs anymore!"

All the imperial doctors were trembling and had no choice but to take orders and leave at last.

But everyone knew that the fourth prince's leg should not be cured anymore.

Inside the curtain, the fourth prince's face was pale: "Father, my son's legs..."

However, Emperor Jingren did not see the panicked and worried expression before. Looking carefully, there was a bit of indifference in the depths of his eyes: "Where have you been for the past ten days?"

"It's been two days since I woke up from that farmer's house," the fourth prince's voice was weak, "I was lucky enough to get my life back, and I dare not entrust my family and life to others, nor dare to reveal my identity until I can barely go to the ground." Only by walking can we return to the imperial city."

However, in Emperor Jing Ren's eyes, these reasons are all evidences of the leg disease: "Then do you know, if you can come back in time and heal your leg—"

Emperor Jing Ren let out a cold snort after speaking, and then walked away in a huff.

A disabled prince will never become a powerful prince. In the eyes of Emperor Jingren, of course there is no need to worry about it.

Behind him, the Fourth Prince's complexion became paler and paler. He fell from the cliff, and besides the broken leg, he had many other injuries. At this moment, he finally couldn't hold on and passed out.

The sky was getting dark, the wind was blowing, and the night was bright.

In Shanquan Temple, the hall is brightly lit today. Hundreds of monks sit cross-legged with solemn faces. Shi Kong sits at the front to receive scriptures.

Before the Buddha statue was enshrined, in addition to the nine relics from the ashes of Master Xuanming's Nirvana, there was also a scroll of calligraphy.

The sound of wooden fish and the sound of chanting gradually fade away, with a deep sense of Zen, solemn and majestic.

On the ground floor of Shanquan Temple, in a dark and small room, the person sitting on the bed was bent and old, with half-blind eyes, but it was Nanny Wu.

Compared with the embarrassed appearance before, she is now neatly dressed and staring at the door without a thought, not as panicked as before.

——The praying mantis catches the cicada, but of course the oriole is still behind.
