After a long time, Song Jingchen broke the silence.

“In order not to be hated by the Xuanyuan royal family, what the Yu family did probably refers to Xuanyuan Ye’s background. If nothing goes wrong, the people of the Valley of Heavenly Secrets will attack Jiang Tao next. Your Highness…”

“I know. I’ll arrange for someone to set up an ambush around Jiang Tao. As long as the people from the Valley of Heavenly Secrets appear, we’ll take them down in one fell swoop.”

Xuanyuan Ce stood up and looked at Shen Yijia deeply. “Girl, I let you and your mother down back then. I won’t let you suffer again.”

He stopped at the door and finally strode away.

Shen Yijia’s fingertips moved, but she did not say anything.

The sound of galloping horses outside the courtyard was especially obvious.

After returning to her room, Shen Yijia turned to look at Song Jingchen. “Hubby.”

There was a tacit understanding between husband and wife. It was obvious what the other party was thinking.

Song Jingchen touched the top of her head with heartache. “Go.”

Shen Yijia pounced on him and kissed his cheek. “I’ll come back and sleep with you tomorrow.”

After two steps, she clattered back. “No, what if I miss you? I’m going to take your pillow with me.”

Then, she really hugged Song Jingchen’s pillow and never returned.

Song Jingchen couldn’t help but chuckle.

The candle in Ji Luo’s room was still lit.

Shen Yijia knocked on the door and waited for a long time before opening it from the inside.

“Jiajia? Why are you here so late?”

Her eyes were red. It was obvious that she had just cried.

Shen Yijia pretended not to see it. She shook the pillow in her arms and grinned. “I’m here to sleep with Mother.”

Ji Luo’s heart instantly softened. A smile appeared at the corners of her eyes.

“Okay.”

On the other side, Song Jingchen, who was alone in the empty room, read until

late at night. Seeing that it was getting late, he rubbed the space between his eyebrows and closed the book to rest.

Something flashed through his mind, and he paused in the act of undressing.

With the people from the Valley of Heavenly Secrets around, the envoys of the Wu Kingdom must have already known about Jiajia’s relationship with Lord Jing’an.

Jiajia was his wife, which was not a good thing for the Wu Kingdom.

“Also, today, the envoy of the Wu Kingdom entered the palace. The emperor did not see them, but he saw me. What would they think?”

This had actually achieved the effect Song Jingchen wanted to see at first.

However, he felt that something was wrong. What MO Yu asked Madam Yu to do.

Madam Yu said, “You’re simply bold. How can you…”

Madam Yu had once wanted to use the Valley of Heavenly Secrets to get rid of Jiajia. For her to be so shocked, it meant that she wasn’t targeting Jiajia.

Then who could it be? The emperor? Or Lord Jing’an?

No, it couldn’t be the emperor.

Not to mention that the emperor was in the palace and had so many experts protecting him, even if Madam Yu was the princess consort, she could not interfere.

Then there was only…

Song Jingchen’s pupils constricted, and he quickly put on his clothes again and went out.

In the courtyard, seeing that the lights in his master’s room were off, Thirty Thousand yawned and prepared to go back to his room to sleep.

He had only taken two steps when he heard the door open.

Seeing Song Jingchen’s cold expression, he shivered and quickly went up to him.

“Master.”

“Prepare the horses.” Song Jingchen strode out.

Seeing this, Thirty Thousand did not dare to delay and quickly ran to the backyard to bring out a horse.

He handed the horse rope to Song Jingchen and asked, “Is Master going out? Should I tell Young Madam?”

Song Jingchen pursed his lips and shook his head. “There’s no need. I’ll be back soon. ”

Even if Madam Yu wanted to attack Lord Jing’an, it would take time to set up the trap. It wouldn’t be so soon. There was no need to make Jiajia worry. However, he did not expect Xuanyuan Ce to return to his residence..
