Song Wei had used all his energy to say these words and lost consciousness right afterwards .

Emperor Yuan seemed to stare at him, but his eyes actually had no real focus as his clenched and loosened .

He turned around and strode out the door .

Lady Luo was already waiting in the palace hall .

When the Emperor Yuan walked through the doorway, he saw an elegant woman kneeling of the ground . One could already see how weak and delicate she was from her back .

Emperor Yuan’s leg froze in midair .

It was just a back view, yet he already knew that the woman was not Yan Ge .

She was not the third daughter of the Luo family at all .

The woman he thought about endlessly was the existence he wholeheartedly sought to eliminate .

He wracked his brains and schemed for so long . He could see the fruits of victory, but they did not prove to be what he wanted .

Emperor Yuan’s body felt a chill all over .

The last bit of hope had been shattered . At this moment, his heart dropped into an abyss, and he could no longer see the light .

“His Majesty has arrived!”

At the sound of Eunuch Su’s voice, the kneeling woman quickly saluted Emperor Yuan: “May Your Majesty be at peace . ”

Emperor Yuan remained standing at the door .

He did not move, nor did he focus his attention on the woman .

He wanted to continue to deceive himself, but the woman’s voice was a polar difference extreme from Yan Ge's voice .

His teeth gritted his teeth and his lips were pursed firmly . As if finally reacting, he strode out the door in the next moment .

On his desk were stacks of memorials the palace secretary was ordered to send to the ministers’ residences the following day .

That very night, Emperor Yuan rushed to the border station with his personal guards and Song Wei .

Her letter was placed in his chest, and he would reach out touch it from time to time .

His hands were cold, but whenever he touched his chest, he could feel his blood boiling .

Is she Ming Lan? Is she really the Lord of Zhenbei?

Is she ardently waiting for him in Fengcheng?

There were so many doubts and uncertainties . There was so much had not yet been confirmed…

Most matters in the first half of his life were a gamble; winning meant obtaining the world while losing meant having nothing .

Whenever he took a gamble, he was always sure of the outcome .

But this time, he was not . He was not sure if she really was Ming Lan, and he did not even know what awaited him at the border as he travelled there in such a simple manner .

He had no certainties, but honor permits no turning back1 .

The gale blew past his ears, and his features became increasingly frigid .

By the time they arrived in Wucheng, they had travelled three days and three nights, and many horses had galloped to death along the way .

When he dismounted from the horse, Emperor Yuan's legs trembled so hard that he nearly fell . The skin on his legs had cracked open from the friction . He lived a pampered life and had never traveled day and night on horseback . A nearby guard wanted to support him, but the man was stopped by the look in his eyes .

He merely became like this from saddling a horse for three days, then what about her? She, a woman, defended the border for such a long time . How did she withstand it?

Upon arrival, Emperor Yuan seized Chang Shijie’s military power with bolting speed and set off for Fengcheng the same night .

It was his first military campaign and his first time on the battlefield .

As he child, he fantasized about leading hundreds upon thousands of troops to pacify the world, but as he currently led endless rows of men on horseback, his chest was calm and without a ripple .

There was no excitement of achieving his goals . There was no blood rushing excitement for the battlefield .

At this moment, his heart called out her name again and again .

Yan Ge, Zhen[I]I will gamble the world, just please, wait for Zhen[me]!

Ji Zai: Blockhead, this mighty one seems to like you, why don’t you abduct him?

Yan Ge lifted her eyelids: As you said, he only likes me . What am I supposed to do with this kind of man? A Love between a human a tree, hahaha—abnormal! I don’t have requirements for my partner, but the fundamental point must be that he's a tree .

Ji Zai: You might spend your last years alone .

A certain beast: Ao, if a human and a tree won’t do, then a beast and a tree is possible . Come, let me eat you!!

.

Honor permits no turning back (义无反顾—yì wú fǎn gù): idiom that means to proceed without hesitation .
