The day before departure. Jingu went to meet Sima Feng, He had already decided which choice he would take.
And that was when he finally decided to accept Sima Feng's offer, to no longer act as a bandit and start everything from scratch. Although it was only for a while, at least that was what was on his mind.
Not only that, Sima Feng will also make some of the adult men in the bandit village who have martial skills as bodyguards and the rest of them will live life as farmers.
The most important thing is that they have a job to support their family.
Be this time, Jingu left with them. The other man will follow after.
" Stop looking outwards. Is there anything that makes you curious? " Terror Liu Ru because for the umpteenth time, she found her sister-in-law quietly peering outwards.
Actually, Liu Ru was trying to tease A Fei. Of course he knows which direction his sister-in-law's attention has been since. Repeatedly looking towards Jingu, made the pregnant woman think that her sister-in-law might like her.
Sima Fei was not evasive and had no intention of hiding it at all. He asked the brother-in-law with a serious face.
" Sister-in-law, why did you bring that man too? didn't you know he was a bandit. They are robbers and thieves. Aren't you afraid our money will be stolen by him? "
Liu Ru chuckled, it was funny to see A Fei seem so wary. " I know. But it was he who saved me. Besides, it was A Feng who approved of Jingu coming with us. You know it yourself, no, A Feng won't let people he doesn't trust follow him. So I don't think it's a bad thing. After all, they had also promised to stop acting as bandits. Isn't that a good thing? "
A Fei nodded, while his hands were still flicking through the curtains, his eyes glancing at Jingu.
'That's a good thing. But why do I feel that man has other intentions. ' His mind is suspicious.
Amidst the journey, Sima Feng's entourage was intercepted by a group of Jin Empire's bodyguards. A man that Sima Feng believed to be the commander of the bodyguards came forward and saluted him.
" What's up? why did you intercept my trip? " Tanya Sima Feng was cold. As if it could freeze anyone who heard it.
" I'm sorry, Your Highness the prince. But we have orders from His Majesty the emperor to escort wangfei and princess Fei back to the capital. His Majesty also gave orders that you be asked to remain at the border to resolve the problems there. You are only allowed to return after all the business has been completed. "
Quietly commander Chen relayed Sima Rui's orders, completely unaffected even though Sima Feng's aura was so piercing. After serving Sima Rui for so long, his mental resilience also grew stronger.
Sima Feng sneered. " What nonsense are you saying. How could I go to the border while my wife returns to the capital. Very amusing. "
"Excuse me Your Majesty, but that is the order of His Majesty the emperor. " Commander Chen also issued an Imperial decree scroll.
A decree that Sima Rui deliberately made if his son refused his oral order. Looking at the sacred object, Sima Feng could do nothing but hold back his anger.
"Ck, so my father even made an Imperial decree to restrain me. "
Angry, of course. He was disappointed with his father's decision. Sima Feng did not know that all of this was Ziyan's request. She did ask her husband to temporarily separate A Feng from his wife.
Even though he knew his son had regained consciousness and returned to his wife. But the source of their troubles was still in the northern residence. And Ziyan wanted her son to solve their problem completely before the two finally regrouped.
With a feeling of annoyance, Sima Feng dismounted from his horse and took the edict from commander Chen's hand. He read it at a glance and immediately he had the urge to throw an edict in his hand.
Hearing the commotion, Liu Ru looked outside and found her husband holding back anger at the man in the army commander's uniform. Holding back the curiosity, Liu Ru still silently observed the situation.
" Why is Commander Chen here? " muttered A Fei.
" You know him A Fei? "
The girl nodded. " He's one of my father's trust commanders. Dad's partner when he was on the battlefield. "
" Why is he here? "
A Fei narrowed his eyes, looking at his brother's expression with the scroll of edict in his hand. He could guess that his father must have done something.
" Some time we'll know. But I'm pretty sure, commander Chen coming here brought trouble for A Feng. "
And sure enough, Sima Feng walked over with a complicated expression.
Liu Ru, who had gotten off the horse carriage, approached Sima Feng to ask him.
" My wife, return to the capital with them. Sorry, because I can't accompany you. I have to finish all my business at the border. I promise that once everything's done, I'll be right back to see you. "
" Was His Majesty the emperor giving the order? "
Sima Feng nodded. He smiled wryly, it was heavy to have to go back to parting with his wife. Moreover, he could not keep his promise to accompany Liu Ru while pregnant.
" Fastly finish it and hurry back. I'll wait for you, Your Majesty. "
The couple's husband and wife hugged each other as their farewell. Sima Feng really did not want to break that embrace. Not yet they parted but her longing already started to grow in her heart. Imagining her going apart soon, makes her even more miserable.
" Please take care of my wife. Don't let anything happen to her and my son. " Sima Feng's message to A Fei.
" Give it to me. I will definitely take care of my sister-in-law and my niece-in-law. Ah and also Xiao Yi of course. You too, brother, quickly finish your business there. Prove to me that you're the man in charge. I believe your separation is a form of punishment for the disappointment that my sister-in-law received yesterday. " Guess A Fei analyzed.
Seeing from the nature of his father, it is impossible for him to interfere with the problems of his children. It was very clear that this was their mother.
Sima Feng was silent. He knew his attitude yesterday had gone too far, ignoring his wife just to trap Gu Xinzu and Gu Feifei.
They eventually separated. Sima Feng stared unblinkingly at the entourage of commander Chen who had managed to kidnap his wife and son.
" Wait for me my wife. I'll definitely be back soon. " Monologist Sima Feng.
After the shadow of the group is no longer visible. Sima Feng immediately pulled the rope of his horse and turned around to return to the border.
His first destination was the prince's residence. He would make calculations first with Gu Feifei. Start with his personal servant. He knew for a long time that the servant he had sent had betrayed him. That's why he'll start with her.
Sima never thought that the secret behind Gu Feifei's poisoning would also be revealed from the woman's lips.
