Zhao Zhizhi walked over and said something to him.

Wei Shao watched them from the side, a hint of jealousy flashing between his brows.

He calmly observed Li Yunfei's expression and words, with mixed feelings in his heart. He was well aware of his feelings for Zhao Zhizhi, but he could not suppress his jealousy of Li Yunfei.

Li Yunfei then bowed to everyone and then left.

His appearance was as brief and intense as a storm, adding a different color to the reunion.

Wei Shao looked at Li Yunfei's back, feeling even more jealous.

The banquet continued, and the laughter rang out again.

Wei Shao tried hard to adjust his emotions and not let jealousy affect the joy of this moment.

He knew that as Zhao Zhizhi's husband, he should face all this more calmly, trust her and love her more.

Night falls and the stars are shining.

This long-lost reunion came to an end in warmth and touching.

The dim lights in the mansion reflect everyone's happiness and contentment.

Wei Shao asked someone to prepare a room for Xia Pan'er, and then took Zhao Zhizhi back to the house where they were.

Zhao Zhizhi drank a little wine and his face turned red.

He pressed on her body, placed his hands on both sides of her, stared at her and asked, "What did you tell Li Yunfei just now?"

Zhao Zhizhi smiled and raised his chin, "You have great internal strength. Didn't you hear our conversation clearly just now?"

"I'm not the kind of person who likes to eavesdrop on other people's conversations." Wei Shao said proudly.

Looking at his appearance, Zhao Zhizhi couldn't help but chuckle.

Seeing this, Wei Shao turned over and lay down next to her. He did not continue to ask questions, but closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Zhao Zhizhi gently pushed Wei Shao awake beside him and whispered: "Wei Shao, do you still want to know what General Li Yunfei mentioned to me?"

Wei Shao slowly opened his eyes, with a hint of doubt in his eyebrows: "What's wrong?"

Zhao Zhizhi sighed softly: "He told me that there seemed to be some strange movements among the Huns in northern Xinjiang. He was worried that there was something wrong within the Huns."

When Wei Shao heard this, he immediately sat up and his expression became solemn: "Northern Xinjiang Huns? How could this happen?"

Zhao Zhizhi relayed what General Li Yunfei said, and then said: "I always feel that there is something unusual over there in Northern Xinjiang. Wei Shao, would you like to send someone over to take a look?"

Wei Shao thought for a moment: "You really can't be careless about this matter. Zhizhi, don't worry too much. I will send someone to verify it."

Zhao Zhizhi nodded slightly and said gratefully: "Thank you, Wei Shao. With you here, I feel much more at ease."

Wei Shao gently stroked her hair and said softly: "Fool, you are my wife. If I don't protect you, who will protect you?"

At this moment, Zhao Zhizhi's heart was filled with his tenderness, and all his anxiety and worries disappeared.

Zhao Zhizhi suddenly looked at the ceiling. There was deep worry hidden in her eyebrows. It was a heaviness that only those at the center of the power whirlpool could understand.

"A Shao, what do you think is the dispute between the Prime Minister and Magistrate Cao?" Zhao Zhizhi asked softly, every word like pearls falling on a jade plate, crisp and rhythmic, "How did the Emperor deal with them?"

Wei Shao sat on the edge of the bed, clenching his hands with bulging veins. It was obvious that he was not at peace inside.

He took a deep breath and spoke slowly: "Zhizhi, this matter is not trivial. The Prime Minister has already attacked the people around Magistrate Cao, assassinating batch after batch, eliminating all evidence. Although the Emperor has already dealt with Cao County Magistrate, County magistrate, but the Prime Minister’s influence is still deeply rooted, and there is no way to deal with the Prime Minister for the time being.”

Zhao Zhizhi frowned slightly, she naturally knew the seriousness of the matter.

She gently touched Wei Shao's hand, trying to give him some comfort.

Wei Shao looked up at her, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes: "Zhizhi, we can't rush this matter. As long as we wait patiently, I believe we will be able to overthrow the Prime Minister one day."

Zhao Zhizhi nodded slightly, she understood Wei Shao's painstaking efforts.

In this turbulent palace, every decision may change the entire structure of the court.

And they need to deal with all this more cautiously and wisely.

It was late at night, and the two people under the palace lantern were still talking.

Their voices were getting lower and lower, but every word was full of power.

In this silent night, their determination and belief are like bright stars, illuminating this dark world.

"Go to bed first, you must be exhausted these days." Wei Shao looked at Zhao Zhizhi reluctantly and held her hand tightly.

Zhao Zhizhi pursed her lips and smiled: "Okay!" She leaned on his shoulder and rubbed it.

The moonlight outside the window shone on the bed, making it quiet.

However, the future turmoil is surging in everyone's heart. The night gradually deepened, and the two fell into sleep, but the wheel of fate had already begun to turn quietly.

Zhao Zhizhi woke up early in the morning, and the sun shined on her face through the gaps in the curtains.

She rubbed her sleepy eyes, slowly sat up, and her eyes inadvertently fell on the empty pillow beside her. She realized that Wei Shao had left, and an inexplicable feeling of loss came to her heart.

Sitting quietly on the bed, she had many thoughts.

She thought of Wei Shao's eyes, his tone, and his smile last night, and those details seemed to be right in front of her eyes. However, at this moment, he had already left, leaving only a faint thought.

Outside the window, morning birds were chirping, and the sun shone through the curtains on the floor, leaving a golden light and shadow.

Zhao Zhizhi stood up slowly, walked to the window, and opened the curtains.

The sunlight instantly filled the entire room, and everything seemed to wake up at this moment.

Zhao Zhizhi took a deep breath and tried to calm down the fluctuations in his heart. She put on a plain dress, combed her long hair, and walked out of the room gently.

The corridor was silent, with only the sound of her footsteps echoing in the empty space.

She walked to the study door, hesitated for a moment, and then pushed the door open and entered. The furnishings in the study room were as simple and elegant as ever. There was a thick stack of documents on Wei Shao's desk, and a candlestick was burning quietly.

Zhao Zhizhi walked gently to the desk, his eyes flowing over the documents.

She knew that Wei Shao was an extremely busy person, and there were countless things waiting for him to deal with every day. She wanted to help him share some of the pressure, but she didn't know where to start.

Just as she was deep in thought, there was a gentle knock on the door.

Zhao Zhizhi came to his senses, turned around and opened the door.

The maid outside the door saluted her and said, "Madam, good morning! General Li asked me to tell you that he has gone to Northern Xinjiang."

Zhao Zhizhi was stunned. She didn't expect Li Yunfei to leave without saying goodbye, let alone that he would go to Northern Xinjiang to deal with the problem in person so soon.

She took a deep breath and nodded gently: "I know, you go down first."

After the maid left, Zhao Zhizhi stood alone in the study, feeling a little confused.

She knew that Li Yunfei was going to deal with the issue of the Huns in Northern Xinjiang. It was a major national matter and he had a heavy responsibility. But after getting along with each other along the way, she hoped that he would eventually return safely.
