Pet Addiction: The Prince’s Desire to Spoil His Pet

-

When the beginning of the twelfth lunar month came, it was already snowing heavily in Beicheng, but the streets were still bustling with life in the cold winter months.

Chengling just got back the letter. Since He Ruojin went to southern Xinjiang half a month ago, a letter came back almost every five days. Say hello and say hello to her.

Chengling herself is not very good at talking, and every time she writes back, she just tells him that everything is fine and asks him to take care of herself.

However, after another half a month, Cheng Ling belatedly realized that He Ruojin hadn't sent a letter back for half a month.

Rao at that time, Cheng Ling didn't think much about it, she just thought that the battlefield was dangerous and He Ruojin didn't have extra time to send her a message.

She knew that the day of the accident was when she was taking a rest in the academy, and she ordered the dining room to make some snacks, and wanted to go to the palace to accompany her father and mother afterward, but what she didn't expect was that Mrs. He rushed to the princess mansion early in the morning coming.

Cheng Ling was also a little stunned by Mrs. He's sudden arrival, but then quickly asked the housekeeper to invite Mrs. He in.

Madam He seemed to have already cried when she came. Seeing her flushed eyes, Chengling had a bad thought in her heart. She walked over to help Madam He, but Madam He knelt down in front of her with red eyes. down.

Chengling was dumbfounded, and hurriedly knelt down and helped her up, "Ma'am, what are you doing, get up quickly."

Mrs. He held her hand, and told her choked with sobs that the army led by He Ruojin to the southern border was ambushed by Liang Guo, and her life and death are unknown now.

The battle report came early in the morning, but Chengling didn't pay much attention to what happened on the battlefield, and always thought that He Ruojin was safe and sound.

So much so that after hearing Mrs. He's words, she was stunned, as if she had never thought of such a possibility.

She opened her mouth, and it took her a while to realize what Mrs. He had said, but Mrs. He's mood seemed much more uncomfortable than hers. Chengling had no choice but to calm down, comforted Mrs. He and said in a low voice: "Don't If you think about it, he will be fine, I will go to the palace now to find my father, and my father will definitely find a solution."

Madam He nodded with tears in her eyes, shook Chengling's hand tightly and said, "Princess, you must save Ruojin no matter what."

Chengling also panicked, after all, she had never encountered such a thing, but because it was in front of Mrs. He, she nodded and repeated: "I will, and he will be fine."

Chengling asked the people from the Princess Mansion to send Mrs. He back to have a good rest, while she went straight into the palace to find her father.

However, after she entered the palace, she was stopped by the people from Ziyun Palace before she had time to tell her father that she had something to look for, saying that it was the queen mother who asked her to go there.

Although Chengling was anxious, she didn't know what the empress mother wanted to do with her, so she could only go to Ziyun Palace.

At that time, Ji Xili was sitting on the couch next to the window sill and reading several battle reports. When he heard the sound of footsteps, he raised his head and glanced at Chengling who came over to look at her, who hesitated to speak, blinked calmly, and put down his hands. He raised his hand to let her come over.

Chengling walked over obediently, and sat down beside the queen mother.

Then, his eyes caught a few battle reports on the desk, and his lips moved slightly.

"Why did the matter of Ruojin come?" Ji Xili asked her indifferently.

Chengling hesitated for a moment, then nodded honestly, and told the queen mother about Mrs. He's visit to her.

"My mother originally thought it was just an ordinary war, but after half a month of battle reports, I realized that Liang Guo has been lurking for two years, and this time is premeditated. Right now, Southern Xinjiang is more serious than you think. It's hard to defend, your father has been up for almost two nights because of this matter, and right now he is still discussing this matter with Prince Sheng in the hall."

When Chengling heard Ji Xili's words, she was taken aback for a moment, she probably didn't expect the matter to be so serious, she opened her mouth and asked softly, "Then... will Southern Border fall?"

Ji Xili reached out and touched her head, hugged her and coaxed her in a low voice: "Believe in your father, believe in our northern army, they can do it."

Chengling nodded with red eyes, but was still very worried, "Has He Ruojin been ambushed by Liang Jun?"

Ji Xili was silent for a while before saying: "Yes."

"So how is he now?"

Ji Xili originally wanted to find an excuse to fool Cheng Ling, but after thinking about it, he still told her the truth, "There is no news about him yet, but your father is already discussing urgent matters, Ling'er, don't worry too much."

Chengling is not stupid, she can vaguely hear that Ji Xili seems to be revealing a message to her both in and out of words, that He Ruojin is in danger.

Chengling raised her head at a loss, looked at Ji Xili in a daze and asked, "Mother, if Nanjiang falls, what will happen...?"

"Southern Border is a gateway to the Northern Kingdom, Ling'er," Ji Xili suddenly looked at Chengling seriously and said, "No matter what, we will never allow Southern Border to fall."

With red eyes, Chengling bit her lips tightly and nodded vigorously.

She knows that she can't bother her father now, and she also knows that things on the battlefield are beyond her control. The only thing she knows clearly is that the people in southern Xinjiang, including the soldiers stationed in southern Xinjiang, are in dire straits ...

After Chengling came out of the palace, she was in a daze. She couldn't help sending a letter to the station. She didn't know if He Ruojin would receive her reply, but other than that, she didn't know what else she could do. something to do.

In the blink of an eye, New Year's Eve is approaching, and lights and festoons have begun everywhere inside and outside the northern city, but she knows that people far away in the southern border, they are not safe from day to day...

Chengling waited for a few more days, but did not receive a letter from He Ruojin, but another bad news came, which was the news that she personally went to Qingzhi to confirm——

He Ruojin's army was surrounded and suppressed all the way, causing countless casualties.

He Ruojin's life and death are unknown.

She remembered that when Mrs. He came to see her two days ago, she repeatedly assured Mrs. He that Southern Border would definitely be defended, and that her father had already ordered troops from all over the country to support her. As soon as the reinforcements arrived, He Ruojin would be fine.

But now Chengling dare not tell Mrs. He the news.

She was afraid that Mrs. He would not be able to bear it.

But what she never expected was that the next day, the battle reports would be in a hurry——

Southern Border City fell.

Nanjiang City was captured by Liang Guo's army.

Chengling even forgot to put on her cloak, and ran towards the palace in the face of the strong wind and heavy snow. Fade Chen and the others stood guard outside the main hall and did not let her in.

Chengling stood outside the hall and waited. The quarrel in the hall was extremely loud, and she suddenly heard a few harsh words——

The imperial conquest.

The father said that he wanted to drive himself to conquer.

When the fierce wind came, Cheng Ling trembled a little, her eyelashes trembled, she looked at Fade Chen almost beggingly, and begged him in a low voice not to tell Father that she had been here.
