There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 231 Wait for me
The whole day he was gone, Tang Wanning was out of her mind, restless, dull, and restless.

It was so easy to sleep in the afternoon, thinking that I would see him when I woke up, but when I closed my eyes just now, my mind was muddled.

For a while, I thought about what Dad was doing at the moment, he must have gotten wind that he was training soldiers.

After a while, I thought about what kind of embarrassment Xia Houjue should have in the court. He is such a proud man, he has been strategizing since he was a child, and he has never lost to anyone. What should he worry about now? like?
After a while, she thought of the people in the northwest. If there were any changes there, the people in the northwest would be the first to suffer.

That's the place where she was born and raised. Every plant, tree, thing and thing there is the most familiar to her. What if, what if... what should I do?
The more Tang Wanning thought about it, the more frightened she became. It wasn't because she was afraid of fighting or dying, but because she was afraid of losing.

She is afraid of losing everything she is familiar with, people in her hometown, things about her hometown, even a Populus euphratica tree in her hometown, she does not want to lose.

Why can't the peace continue after so many years?
Even if we wait another year, or half a year, the Great Xia Dynasty will not be so passive, but now, right now, the Great Xia Dynasty has a large number of people, but they have no money and food. It is really sad to think about it.

……

Just thinking about it so wildly that at night, she got up and ate dinner by herself, and then curled herself up on the bed again.

Bi Yue and Bi Luo watched and shook their heads: "Master, you can't do this, how can you come down and take a walk?"

"That's right, you've been lying down for a whole day, the emperor will be worried if he knows!"

"Master, did something happen?"

"Don't talk nonsense, there's nothing wrong with it, the master just misses the emperor!" Bi Luo's expression was serious and determined.

In the past, Tang Wanning would have been dumbfounded, but now she is not in the slightest mood, she is still lying on the bed staring at the ceiling in a daze.

Maybe it was because Riga didn't fall asleep all day long last night, but she fell asleep inexplicably after dinner, and she didn't even know when Xia Houjue would come back.

When I woke up again, it was already early morning.

Tang Wanning saw him as soon as she opened her eyes. He rested his chin, with a relaxed smile on his lips, looking at her wearily but dotingly.

Tang Wanning just stared at his stubble for a moment, and the turbulent emotions in her heart could no longer be controlled, and they all gushed out.

She cried and punched him on the chest, sobbing: "You are finally back, you told me you would be back soon, why did you keep me waiting for a day and a night?"

Xia Houjue grabbed her hand and rubbed her into his arms: "Wanwan, don't be angry, I've taken care of everything!"

"I promise you, after we go through this turmoil together, I will never leave you again, let alone worry you!"

He is a person with great ambitions. He inherits the great power and holds the country in his hands. On his shoulders is the life and death of thousands of people in the world.

Abandoning them is obviously unrealistic, so let's make the Great Xia Dynasty strong, and when this place becomes strong, he will be much freer.

He will not be an emperor who relies on concubines to balance the court, nor will he marry three thousand beauties to make the harem smoky and gloomy.

He won't let his children fight for such a throne, and he won't let the world say that they are the most ruthless emperor's family.

What happened to the emperor's house?The emperor is not a human anymore?Why does the emperor's house have to be ruthless?

He didn't believe in evil, so he insisted on giving it a try, to see if the emperor's family could be sympathetic, if it could be a hot mess, and make the already depressed people in the imperial city a little happier.

"What do you mean by what you just said?" Tang Wanning was very smart, and could find the loopholes in his words when she was so sad.

Xia Houjue stroked her silky hair, and smiled wryly in her heart: My wife is really not easy to deceive, he obviously only said one sentence.

"You just said that you solved everything, but you said, what do you mean after going through this turmoil?" Is it resolved or not?

Xia Houjue hesitated, he hadn't figured out what to say yet.

He thought she wouldn't ask, or that she couldn't hear the flaws, but now, what should he do?
"Wanwan..." He hesitated for a while, but still only said two words, Tang Wanning burst into tears, "Did you make any important decision? Or, what are you going to sacrifice?"

"No, I just decided to go to the conquest myself!" Seeing her crying, Xia Houjue immediately recruited. He thought he had never been afraid of anything before, but now, he was most afraid of her tears.

She is so strong and so proud, a woman like a sunflower, shed tears frequently recently, his heart is about to break.

"Wanwan, don't be afraid, I'm just going to the imperial conquest to encourage the soldiers, I won't go to the front line, you have to trust me!"

"I..." Tang Wanning cried violently, "I...I..."

She talked to me for a long time, and finally choked out a sentence: "I want to go too!"

"If war is really going to happen, then I will go too. The northwest is my hometown. My parents and three older brothers are all there. How can I be at ease, how can I be at ease!"

"No! It's very dangerous there now!" Xia Houjue looked very cautiously.

"Hey, don't make trouble, you wait for me in the capital, I'll be back soon, after I wipe out those barbarians, I will never leave again, and I will never give anyone a chance to hurt the Great Xia Dynasty!"

"But……"

"No, but, Wanwan, I can promise you anything, I can give you anything, but this is not possible, Wanwan! I'm sorry!" Xia Houjue's attitude was very firm.

Tang Wanning burst into tears, and he didn't have the slightest intention to take it back, as if his heart was determined.

She sniffed, and was about to put the matter aside: "I don't have to go, but you have to tell me the real situation over there, I want to know!"

Xia Houjue sighed, and finally nodded slowly.

"The nomadic tribes over there seem to know about the change of the Great Xia Dynasty, and also know the weakness of the Great Xia Dynasty. They have gathered 20 soldiers and horses to attack the border. The breakthrough point is in the northwest, and... just before the autumn harvest!"

Before the autumn harvest, it was impossible for the Great Xia Dynasty to provide extra military pay and food and grass. At this time, those nomadic tribes were in summer, when the water and grass were the most plentiful, and the pigs, horses, cattle and sheep were fat and strong.

Their war horses don't need food and grass at all, they just need to use local materials.

They don't have to worry about their food cattle and sheep at all, they just need to graze. This is really a ruthless move to attack the weak with one move.

"It's amazing, what kind of expert advice did the barbarians get?" Tang Wanning wondered.
