Sheng Ling was summoned on the second day. Her father told her that he had to go to Jiangzhou for something and asked her if there was any gift she wanted. He would bring it back to her then.
Sheng Ling was at a loss. She casually said she wanted a bow and arrows, and her father promised to bring them back to her.
The queen mother didn't say anything at that time, she just silently helped her father pack his things.
She wanted to ask her father if he could not go, but she didn't dare to ask. She knew that such words were too willful and not something she, a princess, should say.
She didn't know how long her father would be gone, and he didn't tell her the exact date of his return.
Sheng Ling felt that she was of no use at all. The prince's brother could even supervise the country and take care of the worries of his father, the emperor and his mother, but she could not do anything to help her father except worry.
Not only that, I was extremely scared.
She was afraid that something might happen to her father on the battlefield. It seemed that ever since she became sensible, she had rarely seen her father on his own expedition, and the expedition he was going on was the lost city of Southern Xinjiang.
He Ruojin's life and death are still unclear, and her father is now going on an expedition to southern Xinjiang. What makes her most sad is that her mother, especially, is clearly very reluctant to leave her father, and pretends that nothing happened, and in turn, Father and Emperor lied to themselves together, fearing that she would be worried and scared...
But how could she really pretend that nothing had happened...
After Sheng Ling left the palace, she returned to the princess's mansion in a daze. Before she could sit down and calm down, she heard a message from the housekeeper, saying that Mr. He and Mrs. He were packing their luggage and planning to go to Nanjing in person. Jiangcheng is looking for He Ruoxin.
When Sheng Ling heard this, his face changed even more, "Nonsense... Mr. He is a civil servant. He has never touched a battlefield in his life. How can he go to the battlefield?"
Moreover, let alone whether He Ruochen had any accidents, He Ruochen was still hiding his power and biding his time. If Mr. He and Mrs. He left, wouldn't it make He Ruochen even more worried
Sheng Ling couldn't sit still, so she quickly went to the He Mansion to stop Mr. He and Mrs. He.
But the two of them were very stubborn and insisted on going no matter what she said. In the end, Sheng Ling had to bite the bullet and use her identity as a princess to suppress them and let the guards guard the He Mansion and not allow Mr. He and Mrs. He to leave the He Mansion.
Sheng Ling knew that they were sad and scared, so he gritted his teeth and assured them: "Ling'er promises you that Ruo Jin will be fine."
After Sheng Ling said this, she turned around and left.
The next day, it was dawn.
The marching army was so long that the end could not be seen at a glance.
Sheng Ling wore a heavy helmet and robe and hid in the rearmost queue of Sheng's army.
The reason why she was able to sneak into the army was because of Luo Yi's help. No, to be precise, it was her who bullied others and threatened and intimidated Luo Yi. Luo Yi had to agree due to her various powers. Got her.
Luo Yi said in a low voice: "Princess, if the emperor finds out about this, he will definitely not spare me."
Sheng Ling lowered his head and whispered: "Even if my father finds out later, I will say that I sneaked in on my own and will not implicate you."
"But if Ruojin knew about it, he would definitely be the first to kill me..."
Shengling felt that he was mumbling a bit noisily, but she still assured him again and again, "I won't turn you in, don't worry."
Luo Yi was slightly relieved after receiving Sheng Ling's assurance.
But when I thought about the southern Xinjiang where Sheng Ling was going, I felt very uneasy. I was really worried that if something happened to Sheng Lingruo later, how would he explain it to the emperor and He Ruoxin...
Therefore, Luo Yi secretly made up his mind that when going to southern Xinjiang, his first priority must be Sheng Ling's safety.
