Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield

Chapter 393: Chapter 174: Husband and Wife Reunited! The Future Crown Prince Position Will Be His! (Part 2)

"This time, it’s indeed a royal confidential mission. Please trouble yourself to inform Madam or the housekeeper that Heibing Platform has important matters," Dunruo said politely.

Looking at Dunruo, and the dozens of remarkable people behind him.

Only then did the guard nod and say, "This is the General’s Mansion. I suppose you have no ill intent, please wait a moment, I will report to the housekeeper."

Saying this.

The guard immediately went into the mansion.

Inside the mansion.

"Housekeeper."

"There are dozens of people outside who suddenly arrived, claiming they have important matters to discuss with Madam."

"And they also claim to be from the Heibing Platform." The guard looked at the housekeeper with a puzzled expression.

Upon hearing this, the housekeeper’s expression changed sharply, and then he said, "You didn’t neglect them, did you?"

"No, I didn’t."

The guard nodded, then asked in surprise, "Housekeeper, what is this Heibing Platform? Why have I never heard of it?"

"Don’t concern yourself with that, just know that they are not to be offended."

"Also, today’s events are not to be spoken of, otherwise your life will be forfeit, along with your entire family’s."

The housekeeper said seriously to the guard.

Seeing the housekeeper’s serious demeanor, the guard’s expression changed slightly as well, and he nodded repeatedly,

"Quick, lead me to them." The housekeeper added.

"Housekeeper, please, they are at the back door." The guard immediately said.

Very soon.

When the housekeeper arrived at the back door.

Upon seeing the man in the lead, he was suddenly shocked: "It’s actually the Chief in person."

As a Dark Guard of the Heibing Platform, and one who was even assigned to Zhao Mansion, he naturally recognized the Chief, Dunruo.

"Sir, I don’t know what brings you here?"

The housekeeper pretended not to recognize him, clasped his hands and looked at Dunruo.

"The Imperial Court has a confidential report for Mrs. Zhao, please lead the way." Dunruo said immediately.

"Do you have a token?" the housekeeper still asked one more question.

Dunruo did not hesitate and directly took out a token from his chest and handed it to the housekeeper.

Upon inspecting it, the housekeeper immediately said, "Please enter the mansion."

"This servant will first go to notify Madam." The housekeeper immediately said.

Then.

He immediately walked towards the mansion.

And Dunruo followed closely.

Meanwhile, behind Dunruo.

Ying Zheng mixed in with the Heibing Platform Dark Guards, walked slowly towards the mansion.

After entering the mansion.

Even as a monarch, Ying Zheng was filled with anxiety in his heart at this moment, mixed with expectation.

"Efang."

"I am here."

"Although I know you don’t want to see me, I must see you, I must give you an explanation." Ying Zheng held his hand tightly, his heart anxious and complex.

Inside the mansion.

Small courtyard.

"Madam."

"There are people from the Imperial Court seeking you."

The housekeeper stood outside the courtyard, respectfully said.

"Why are they seeking me at night?"

"Could it be something urgent?" Mrs. Zhao asked in confusion.

But she also slowly walked out of the room, and looking at her clothed, it was evident she had not yet gone to sleep.

At this time.

Dunruo stepped forward.

"Please step back." Dunruo said to the housekeeper.

Then.

A group of Heibing Platform Dark Guards quickly approached, surrounding the entire small courtyard.

"Go, go, go, all of you leave."

The housekeeper immediately beckoned the surrounding guards and servant girls to leave.

Seeing this scene.

Mrs. Zhao’s expression changed.

A sense of unease surfaced in her heart.

"Who are you people?"

Mrs. Zhao’s expression changed, immediately suspecting they were from an enemy state.

"Madam, do not panic."

Dunruo bowed and saluted Zhao Sheng.

Then waved his hand.

The numerous Dark Guards dispersed, retreating outside the courtyard.

Dunruo himself did the same, directly retreating, leaving Mrs. Zhao with a face full of surprised wonder and confusion.

Until this moment.

When Ying Zheng slowly walked in from outside the courtyard.

Mrs. Zhao’s expression changed instantly, her eyes reflecting a complex emotion.

Surprise, shock, confusion, astonishment.

All sorts of emotions manifested in Mrs. Zhao’s eyes.

But it was only for a moment.

Mrs. Zhao turned around, intending to head back into the room.

But just as she turned.

"Efang."

Ying Zheng called out softly, his face bearing a look of joy, and a hint of anxiety.

Upon hearing the voice.

Mrs. Zhao’s heart trembled, her feet unconsciously stopped.

"You...you have the wrong person."

Mrs. Zhao replied in a trembling voice.

"Efang, do you think I could even mistake you?"

"If I had mistaken you."

"I should have died in Handan." Ying Zheng uttered with a melancholic tone.

"You shouldn’t have come."

"Since you know I’m here, you should know I don’t want to see you." Mrs. Zhao restrained the pain in her heart, replied in a trembling voice.

"I know you don’t want to see me."

"But I must see you."

"For the promise I made, and for you."

"To apologize to you."

"I’m sorry."

"Brother Zheng failed to protect you back then."

Ying Zheng slowly walked to Mrs. Zhao’s back, speaking gently.

Upon hearing this.

Mrs. Zhao’s delicate body trembled once more.

"I have already remarried, and have no ties with the past, you can go back."

"Just consider it my apology to you." Mrs. Zhao said through gritted teeth, her voice trembling.

It seemed that saying these words took all of Zhao Sheng’s strength.

But Ying Zheng only stepped forward, holding Mrs. Zhao closely.

"Efang."

"Don’t lie to me anymore."

"You haven’t remarried."

"I have already investigated, you assumed someone else’s identity."

"Zhao Wu is indeed from this village, but his wife is not, and his wife lives well in another village."

"Zhao Feng, Zhao Ying, they are my children," Ying Zheng said gently, his tone devoid of his usual domineering authority, filled only with a heartfelt tenderness.

Upon hearing this.

Mrs. Zhao had nothing to say.

Feeling the solid form behind her, Mrs. Zhao remained motionless.

"I cannot let Feng’er and the others be placed in danger again."

"I will not go back to that place." Mrs. Zhao said with a trembling voice.
