Cheng Jin had a faint smile on his face and nodded slightly without hiding it.

"If the emperor is talking about you going to lead the troops to conquer tomorrow, then I already know."

Even more abnormal.

There was no real emotion in the smile on Cheng Jin's face, as if it had been determined in advance how much it should rise. It was really weird.

"Then...don't you want to say anything to me?"

The moment he learned that Cheng Jin knew the truth, Chu Chengye had already expected how Cheng Jin would be angry with him and how he would look at him.

When Chu Chengye came, he had already typed up the apology draft, but Cheng Jin acted as if nothing had happened.

Cheng Jin shook his head gently, "Your Majesty, please pay attention to safety along the way. I will wait for you in the palace.

Chu Chengye: "?"

He couldn't understand Cheng Jin even more.

Even if he was really not angry, how could Cheng Jin not take this opportunity to ask to go with him?

Chu Chengye hesitated for a moment and said what he was thinking, "Don't you want to go together?"

Cheng Jin nodded honestly, "I want to go."

Cheng Jin suddenly raised her head and looked into Chu Chengye's eyes, but this time she had no expectations. She already knew what Chu Chengye's answer would be.

"Then will you agree?"

Chu Chengye shook his head as Cheng Jin expected, and Cheng Jin nodded clearly.

"look."

There was some helpless disappointment in Cheng Jin's tone, and Chu Chengye explained eagerly: "The border road is far away and extremely dangerous. The sword has no eyes on the battlefield. I can't always worry about you."

Cheng Jin said: "So you think I will become a burden to you?"

Realizing that Cheng Jin had misunderstood what he meant, Chu Chengye immediately shook his head, "You know that's not what I meant."

Cheng Jin said softly: "I know."

She raised her head and looked at Chu Chengye seriously, "But sometimes you have to believe me."

Cheng Jin has been able to protect himself for so long after practicing for so long.

Cheng Jin previously thought that he had no foundation, but after all, he grew up with Cheng Sheng. He was exposed to many things and learned faster than others.

But Chu Chengye seems to have always regarded Cheng Jin as a character who needs protection all the time.

Cheng Jin's words blocked Chu Chengye and he didn't know what to say.

It's not that he doesn't believe in Cheng Jin, he just doesn't believe in himself, or he doesn't dare to gamble with Cheng Jin. He simply can't accept the possibility of Cheng Jin being injured.

While he was silent, he heard Cheng Jin suddenly change his tone and she chuckled:

"Okay, if you don't want me to go, I won't go. What a big deal."

"Anyway, I went there to confirm Cheng Sheng's situation. You are the emperor, so naturally it is more appropriate for you to go."

Cheng Jin agreed so quickly, but Chu Chengye was a little uncomfortable, and he moved his eyes in Cheng Jin's direction.

"Do you really think so?"

Cheng Jin turned back to Chu Chengye and smiled: "Of course."

[Of course not, but wouldn’t you agree no matter what I say? 】

[What are you wasting your breath for? 】

Cheng Jin's heart sounded a little sad. Chu Chengye wanted to say something, but he saw Cheng Jin suddenly opened his arms and hugged him.

Chu Chengye was stunned for a moment, his hand hanging by his side in confusion, Cheng Jin's voice reached Chu Chengye's ears.

"Bring Cheng Sheng back well, and..."

Cheng Jin paused for a moment,

"Be careful, I'll wait for your return in the palace."

Chu Chengye felt that his ear next to Cheng Jin was roaring, and his heartbeat seemed to be uncontrollably speeding up. Cheng Jin hugged Chu Chengye and patted Cheng Jin on the back.

When Chu Chengye reacted and was about to hug him back, Cheng Jin had already retracted his hand, and she winked at Chu Chengye playfully.

"My heartbeat is so fast."

Chu Chengye panicked when he looked at Cheng Jin. He was so nervous that he didn't know what to say.

Cheng Jin did not ask further questions, but asked Chu Chengye: "When will we set off tomorrow?"

At this time, Chu Chengye no longer wanted to hide it from Cheng Jin.

"I will give the edict to my meeting tomorrow morning and set off at noon."

"I guess there will be a lot going on by then, and I won't be able to spare time to see you."

Cheng Jin nodded, lowering his head as if thinking about something, "That's it, okay."

Cheng Jin's reaction was a little dull, and Chu Chengye explained: "Actually, he's not that busy. The emperor has already explained everything, so he can still come."

When Chu Chengye said that he could come, Cheng Jin's reaction was a little bigger, "How could you have nothing to do before you set off? Don't delay it because of such a trivial matter."

"It's not a trivial matter." Chu Chengye said.

However, Cheng Jin was thinking about something at the moment and did not hear clearly. Cheng Jin raised his head and looked at Chu Chengye and said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to come. The matter of sending troops is important."

"The emperor suddenly wants to lead an army to fight in person. Naturally, there are many voices of opposition in the court. If that time comes, it will be a headache to deal with those things. Don't worry about me. I'm fine. Besides, haven't you seen me by now? ?”

Chu Chengye nodded and said nothing more.

Cheng Jin asked Chu Chengye to go back first. Chu Chengye took two steps but suddenly stopped. He looked back at Cheng Jin.

"Will you come tomorrow?"

Chu Chengye's voice was very soft, as if he was unsure of himself that could be blown away by the wind.

Cheng Jin didn't hear something clearly, "What?"

Chu Chengye said: "Will you come to see me off before the expedition?"

Cheng Jin thought of the indispensable plots in the storybooks she had seen, and she found them a bit funny.

I didn't expect that Chu Chengye would pay so much attention to the sense of ritual.

Cheng Jin smiled and said: "There will be so many people on campus tomorrow, even if you go there you won't be able to see them."

"As long as you go, I will definitely see it."

Cheng Jin looked at Chu Chengye at a loss and didn't know how to reply. However, seeing Chu Chengye's eyes gradually dimming, Cheng Jin still couldn't bear it, so she gritted her teeth and lied.

Cheng Jin smiled and said: "Go! Why not go?"

Chu Chengye also rolled his eyes when he saw Cheng Jinxiao, "Okay."

After Chu Chengye left, Cheng Jin immediately got into the house, and Cuizhu immediately asked: "The emperor has left?"

Cheng Jin casually threw a piece of silver from the table into the package, nodded and said, "Let's go."

Ziying continued to take out the half-packed things, and Cheng Jin said: "You must bring more money and exchange it for some easy-to-carry banknotes."

Ziying folded her clothes and put a few more newly forged knives in her bag, "They have been replaced."

Cheng Jin nodded and said, "We'll leave in the evening after packing up."

"While there's no one there."

Cuizhu was still a little worried, "Mother, are you sure you want to leave?"

Cheng Jin said: "I must leave, but I can't take you with me. You can hide it from me for two more days in the palace."

Cuizhu responded with some discomfort, "I know."

After packing everything up, Cheng Jin was already thinking about where to go out.

The secret passage Chu Chengye let her know was convenient and easy to pass, but it was too easy to discover, so Cheng Jin gave up decisively.
