Shaohua is Junqing

Chapter 203

"Was Siyu injured when she fell off the cliff?"

"Didn't the princess tell you?"

"I want to ask, but I'm afraid she won't tell me."

"The princess didn't say anything because she was afraid you would worry. If the princess didn't say anything, I couldn't say anything. Anyway, everything is fine now, so don't worry."

"Well, I'm glad you're all okay. You've worked hard these past few days. Once you've dealt with things here and returned to the capital, I'll reward you handsomely."

"Mo Ran, we are friends. It's too polite to say that. The princess and I are also friends. It's my duty to take care of her. However... you can still look forward to the thank-you gift from the Prince of Chen. It's a rare opportunity for you to thank me in a big way."

"what do you want?"

"What do you want? You ask me this suddenly and I can't think of it at the moment." Su Xunxian frowned slightly.

"I will make you a promise. Tell me when you have made up your mind. As long as it is not excessive, I will do it for you."

"Mo Ran, I've known you for more than ten years, and this is the first time you've taken the initiative to promise me. It's really rare! It seems that love can really make people crazy!"

"If you don't want to, you can also exchange it for other things, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, rare treasures, whatever you choose."

"No, I just want a promise from King Chen."

At night, Siyu and Beitang Moyan sat together in front of the fire.

"Has the matter of King Hanhai been resolved?"

"Not yet. King Bohai and King Hanhai are brothers, and they have always been at odds. King Hanhai was unwilling to see King Bohai sit on the throne, and wanted to overthrow him. However, King Bohai was very good at governing the country, and during his reign, the government was stable and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, so King Bohai could not find any fault with him for a while."

"So the King of Bohai is a wise monarch."

"Our mission to Bohai gave him an opportunity. China is several times stronger than Bohai in terms of politics, economy, and military, and they have never thought of going against us. If something happens to the delegation in Bohai, or even worse, if you or I have an accident, China will definitely not let it go, and may even send troops to demand an explanation, which will plunge the entire Bohai into war."

"Once the war breaks out, the people will suffer and their livelihood will be in vain. The peace and prosperity under the rule of King Bohai will be destroyed. King Hanhai will then make some negative remarks against King Bohai to seduce the people. Once the people are incited, it will not be so easy to appease them. When the time is right, King Bohai will stand up and make some remarks that are beneficial to him. When the people are on his side, King Bohai's throne will be unstable, and he can naturally depose King Bohai and become the king himself."

"What a trick to kill someone with a borrowed knife. What a heavy mind. You actually disregard your own people for your own selfish desires. Will Your Highness be involved in this?"

Beitang Mo Ran shook his head slightly. "This is a matter of internal power struggle within Bohai. As long as it does not harm the interests of China and does not hurt you, I don't have the leisure to care about it. Let them solve it themselves."

“It just makes life difficult for the common people.”

"It's not up to them to decide whether they were born in such a land or live such a life. Don't think too much about it."

"I just hope that King Hanhai can wake up and King Bohai can overcome this difficulty, regain power, and continue to let the people live a peaceful and prosperous life."

On the second day, everyone left the valley. Because Prince Chen and his men had already explored the way before, the journey was much smoother and faster, and it only took one day and one night.

When they got out of the valley, the carriage was already waiting at the entrance, and the three of them took the carriage back to the inn.

At the gate of the inn, Caidie and Xiaoma learned that the princess would come back today, so they waited outside the gate early.

"The county lord."

"Colorful Butterfly, Xiao Ma, I'm so glad you're okay."

"Little one is fine."

"I'm fine, but the princess seems to have lost weight. She must have had a hard time these days."

"Fortunately."

"I was terrified when the princess fell off the cliff that day. If it weren't for Xiao Ma Ge pulling me to find His Highness, I would have jumped down as well."

"Silly girl, how can you not take your life seriously? Don't do anything stupid."

"My life belongs to the princess. I will follow the princess for the rest of my life."

"Okay, then I wish both of us a long life and a lifetime of happiness."

"Caidie, the princess is tired, let her go in and rest first." Beitang Mo Ran reminded in a gentle voice.

"Yes, I forgot because I was so happy. Princess, please come in."
