The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Although his feelings were not accepted, Xiao Ruiyuan never had the word "give up" in his eyes. As long as people don’t work hard, there is nothing they can’t do!

If he hadn't been suddenly appointed by Emperor Hui'an to be the supreme commander of an army of 100,000 troops this morning, he would not have rushed over today to reveal his feelings to the woman he admired! He didn't know when the war would end. He had to leave a shadow in the woman's heart to prevent other men from taking advantage of her while he was away!

When he arrived at Jingshan Villa, Xiao Ruiyuan went straight to the study. When he entered, Chu Heng had already made tea and was waiting for him.

Before he could salute, Chu Heng motioned for him to sit down and poured him a cup of tea with his own hands.

"Although you have been appointed as the commander of a hundred thousand troops this time, this war is not easy to fight. You must be prepared!"

Xiao Ruiyuan nodded slightly, with no trouble on his face, but it was obvious that he had some concerns in his heart.

When Chu Heng saw this, he stopped talking, looked him up and down, and asked with a smile: "I thought you would come after court, but how did I know that you were late for a whole morning, but there was something urgent that delayed you? "

When Xiao Ruiyuan heard this, he excused himself to drink tea to hide the unnatural look on his face. Seeing his cousin staring at him teasingly, he felt helpless.

"Cousin, it's just some personal matters."

As soon as Chu Heng heard the word "cousin", he knew he shouldn't ask any more questions. He chuckled softly, "Since you don't want to say it, I won't force it. Just know it well!"

Having said that, I was extremely surprised. I couldn't help but think of Huaixi's joke last time. Could it be that Hanzhang really has someone he likes?

Seeing that Chu Heng was no longer asking questions, Xiao Ruiyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

It's true that he is his cousin, but he is also the prince of Da Chu. He will not accept his crush on an ordinary woman. Now, he can only hide it for the time being and wait until the time is right to explain it. This is the best protection for that girl!

"Your Highness, I received news yesterday that there were rumors of thousand-year-old ginseng appearing in Jeju Prefecture. Hanzhang has sent additional personnel to Jeju Prefecture to verify it. I think there will be news soon."

Xiao Ruiyuan said, took out a letter from his waistband and placed it in front of Chu Heng. His Highness's illness can no longer be delayed, and he will not let it go even if it is just a rumor.

Chu Heng's face flashed with joy, he picked up the letter and read it carefully. It was only a few dozen words, but he read it for a long time, and the hope that had just risen in his eyes dimmed again.

Xiao Ruiyuan didn't know why. Shouldn't His Highness be happy with the news about Millennium Ginseng?

Chu Heng suppressed the decadent look on his face and showed a forced smile: "The battlefield is changing rapidly. I will send someone to take over and investigate this matter. Don't be distracted by such trivial matters."

Xiao Ruiyuan had a look of disapproval on his face, "In Hanzhang's eyes, this matter is much more important than the war at the border!"

Looking at his serious cousin, Chu Heng was moved and a heartfelt smile appeared on his face.

That's all, no matter whether the millennium ginseng rumors are true or false, there is always a glimmer of hope. Even if there is less than a year left before he is certain that he will not live to be twenty-five years old, he will never give up until the last moment.

The two discussed the war at the border in detail. It was not until the Golden Crow set in the west that Xiao Ruiyuan left the Jingshan Courtyard and rode all the way back to Weiyuan Hou Mansion.

"Hey, big brother is back!"

As soon as he reached the second door, a voice came from the side. Xiao Ruiyuan glanced out of the corner of his eyes and saw two young men under the corridor. The leader was not the one who wanted to kill him and seize the throne. "Good" second brother?
