Shen Luoyang looked at the token in Chu Lei's hand in surprise, "How did you get the pass token of the Northern Dark Kingdom?"
This was not something that anyone could get. Even the prime minister of the Northern Dark Kingdom did not have such a thing in his hands. Chu Lei was a person of Yuan Kingdom. How did he get this token? And the soldiers who let him out of the city did not suspect him at all?
"I don't know. This was given to me by Imperial Concubine Ye to facilitate my work in the city." Chu Lei whispered, "Don't talk so much, let's go quickly."
How could Ye Wei have such a great ability?
Shen Luoyang was shocked beyond words and became more suspicious of Ye Wei's true identity.
"Has the emperor always been outside the city? What did you do? "Shen Luoyang asked in a low voice.
Chu Lei glanced at Shen Luoyang and sighed, "In fact, we didn't do anything. After we arrived, the emperor asked us to listen to Imperial Concubine Ye's orders. I don't know when Imperial Concubine Ye came to the Northern Dark Kingdom."
What the Heavenly Concubine said was true! Imperial Concubine Ye was no longer in Yuan Kingdom. She arrived in the Northern Dark Kingdom one step ahead of the emperor.
Shen Luoyang pursed her lips and felt more vigilant towards Ye Wei.
"Oh, right. When we arrive later, remember not to ask too many questions that you shouldn't," Chu Lei warned.
"Okay." Shen Luoyang's mood was complicated. She thought that Ye Wei was just a jianghu woman rescued by Shui Yichen, but now it seemed that it was more than that.
Neither of them noticed Ye Zhen who had been following them. They came to a big house at the foot of the mountain outside the city. If Chu Lei hadn't led the way, Shen Luoyang would not have found this place.
This big house had five entrances and was built on the mountain. Shen Luoyang followed Chu Lei into the gate and found many women wearing the same color clothes. She recognized those clothes. They were the disciples of Yunluo Palace.
Wasn't Ye Wei driven out by Yunluo Palace? Why were there so many disciples of Yunluo Palace here?
"Chu Lei …" Shen Luoyang couldn't help but want to ask.
"The emperor is in the courtyard over there." Chu Lei looked up at her and motioned her not to forget what he had just said.
Don't be curious and don't ask too many questions. It will not do her any good.
Shen Luoyang frowned and followed Chu Lei all the way to the backyard to see Shui Yichen.
This mansion … was too strange!
The Emperor was clearly here, but everything seemed to be under Ye Wei's control. If it wasn't for Chu Lei leading the way, she would have thought that the Emperor was under house arrest by Ye Wei.
The servant came out and asked Shen Luoyang to enter the room to talk.
Shui Yichen looked at Shen Luoyang with a dark expression. "What happened?"
"This general greets Your Majesty." Shen Luoyang knelt down and bowed, not daring to look at Shui Yichen's expression.
"Why did you leave your post?" Shui Yichen asked.
Shen Luoyang lowered his head. "Your Majesty, this general … is here to bid farewell to you."
Chu Lei looked at Shen Luoyang in shock. She had not mentioned this matter just now. Why was she saying goodbye?
"We are asking you, what exactly happened?" Shui Yichen asked coldly.
Shen Luoyang gave a simple recount of what had happened in the barracks. She did not mention Ming Yu and Yan Xiaoliu as she was afraid Shui Yichen would know that the Heavenly Consort was currently in Dingdu City. "Your Majesty, this general's heart is willing, but my strength is insufficient. I am no longer suited to lead troops into battle. Your Majesty, please allow this general to retire."
Shui Yichen looked at Shen Luoyang with a dark gaze. "Retire? Where do you want to retire to? There are competitions in the army all year round. This is just a small matter, and you feel that you are not suited to be a general? "
"Yes, this general feels that I am old and no longer suited to lead troops," Shen Luoyang said in a low voice.
"Shen Luoyang, how have we treated you?" Shui Yichen suddenly asked.
Shen Luoyang was silent for a moment. His eyes were slightly red. "Whether it is in China or Yuan Country, Your Majesty treats this general like a younger sister. If not for Your Majesty, this general would have long been …"
"We did not mention the past to you," Shui Yichen said coldly. Shui Yichen said coldly, "This Emperor will only ask you, in your heart, do you want to follow Lu Yaoyao more?"
"…" Shen Luoyang slowly raised his head to look at Shui Yichen. It turned out that he already knew everything. It seemed that someone in Qingyuan had already passed the news to him.
Shui Yichen looked down at Shen Luoyang. "When we were in the forest, you already knew that the little girl was her daughter, right?"
"Ming Yu looks very much like the Heavenly Concubine. This general has carried her a few times, but at first, I did not dare to admit it." Shen Luoyang knew that there was no point in explaining. After all, Shui Yichen already knew everything.
She was ready to go all out and do what she had to do.
"Why didn't you tell us? What did you think we would do to her daughter?" Shui Yichen's tone was filled with suppressed anger. No wonder he felt that the girl looked familiar. She was indeed Lu Yaoyao's daughter.
If he had known earlier, he would definitely not have left Ming Yu in the army camp.
Shen Luoyang said in a low voice, "Ming Yu is young and insensible. This general was afraid that she would offend Your Majesty."
"You were afraid that we would keep her as a hostage!" Shui Yichen said angrily. "When did we become a villain in your heart?"
"This general does not dare," Shen Luoyang said.
Shui Yichen snorted coldly. "Where are they now?"
He knew that Shen Luoyang had left with Lu Yaoyao. Since Shen Luoyang was here, she would definitely be in Ding Capital City.
"This general separated from the Heavenly Concubine after leaving Qingyuan," Shen Luoyang said without thinking.
Shui Yichen stared at Shen Luoyang coldly. "You still dare to anger me?"
"This general does not dare." Shen Luoyang kowtowed. "Your Majesty, please allow this general to resign."
"Where do you want to go? To Lu Yaoyao's side? " Shui Yichen asked expressionlessly. He did not expect Shen Luoyang to come to say goodbye. She should be the most loyal person to him.
She felt that Lu Yaoyao was more suitable to be the Heavenly Concubine of Yuan, and he was not suitable to be the Yuan Emperor.
Shui Yichen felt a sense of betrayal. At the same time, he felt a strong sense of love and hate for Ye Zhen.
Shen Luoyang looked down and said, "Your Majesty, this general misses the sea."
"You want to return to China?" Shui Yichen narrowed his eyes slightly and asked word by word.
"Yes!" Shen Luoyang said in a low voice.
Shui Yichen asked, "Lu Yaoyao also wants to go to China?"
Shen Luoyang laughed bitterly in his heart. So many years had passed, but Shui Yichen's obsession with the Heavenly Concubine was still so strong.
"This general wants to go back myself. It has nothing to do with the Heavenly Concubine."
"Are Lu Yaoyao and the others in Ding Capital City?" Shui Yichen asked.
"This general does not know." Shen Luoyang replied.
Shui Yichen knew that Shen Luoyang was not willing to tell the truth. Just as he was about to interrogate him again, a loud noise came from outside.
It came from Wusheng's courtyard! Shui Yichen's expression changed slightly, and he immediately rushed out of the door.
"What happened?" Shen Luoyang asked in surprise.
Chu Lei pointed at her, wanting to say something but hesitating. "You really … piss me off!"
