Children of Loulan

Chapter 396 He Should Be Chasing Me

Mo Ming couldn't help but sneer when he heard this, and then explained confidently: "Two years ago, I stayed in Xuanwang Mansion for several months to recover from my injuries. During that time, it was all thanks to your meticulous care for me. You took care of me until I was plump and clean. But now, this is my true appearance! Look, don't I look healthier, stronger, more handsome and charming than before?"

At this time, Hanguli, who was standing a little further away, quietly watched the two people who were talking happily, and a feeling of emotion welled up in her heart. She shook her head slightly, sighed softly, and murmured to herself: "What a beautiful pair of lovers, it's a pity that they are separated and can't stay together forever..." She once asked Bayer if he was willing to follow Mo Ming to live in West City.

However, Bayer's attitude was extremely firm. She answered seriously that the Crown Prince had specially arranged for Ziya to teach her martial arts in the hope that she could protect Hanguli. If she abandoned this responsibility just after learning it and followed her lover to a distant place without hesitation, wouldn't she become an ungrateful person? Moreover, even if she really made such a request, Mo Ming would definitely not agree.

Mo Ming's apparent purpose of returning to the capital this time was to report on his work and report to the king the details of the affairs of West City. However, what is little known is that he has actually received a secret letter from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and is tasked with handling certain confidential matters. At the same time, Mo Ming also has another concern in his mind - taking advantage of this rare opportunity, he wants to solemnly propose to the Crown Princess, hoping to finalize the marriage contract with Miss Bayer before leaving the capital.

Hanguli was delighted with this matter, and readily agreed and tried her best to facilitate it. To show his sincerity, Mo Ming spent all his money to buy a small and exquisite two-story courtyard in the capital as a precious betrothal gift to Bayer. Although the house was not big and was still a long way from the palace, for Mo Ming, it was the best place he had ever bought with all his savings.

After hearing this, Bayer was deeply moved. She was overwhelmed with emotion. Especially when she knew that Mo Ming would stay in this house during his stay in the capital, she could not hold back her excitement and went to help him clean up and tidy up the house. Hanguli was also considerate and sent people to deliver many daily necessities and household appliances, which made this small courtyard suddenly full of warmth and warmth.

Dahl originally wanted to buy some things as gifts, but when she learned that there was nothing missing there, she decided to save the money so that she could give Baier more dowry in the future.

The day of their engagement was sunny and breezy. They chose to hold the engagement ceremony in their cozy little house. Although the house was not luxurious, it was full of the beauty and sweetness of their future life together.

Since they didn't know many people in the capital, they decided to set up two tables of banquet in this small house. Although the scene was not grand, every detail was carefully arranged, filled with a happy atmosphere.

Among the guests, only Hanguli and Dar were holding their lovely children. The little ones blinked their big eyes and looked around curiously, adding a lot of vitality and energy to the whole scene. Baixi and Ziya also came, congratulating Bayer with sincere smiles on their faces.

In addition, the people from Huimin Hall also came to show their support. Everyone sat together, laughing and talking.

Although not many people came to congratulate them, Baier and Mo Mingren felt extremely satisfied, because these relatives and friends were people who truly cared about them, and being able to gather together on such a special day to witness their love vows together made them feel very happy and warm.

However, not long after Mo Ming and Baier got engaged, he had almost finished his work in the capital and it was time to return to West City. Before that, Hanguli gave Baier a special vacation so that she could spend more time with Mo Ming who was about to travel far away.

On the morning of the day when Mo Ming was leaving, just after the sun rose, Bayer could not wait to go to the city gate with his sister Dal to see off his beloved. Mo Ming was riding a tall and mighty horse, looking heroic, and followed by a team of guards. When he saw Bayer coming to see him off, he smiled gently, dismounted, walked to Bayer, gently took her hand, and said softly: "Wait for me to come back."

Bayer nodded slightly and hugged him, his eyes full of reluctance. As Mo Ming climbed onto the horse and waved the whip, the sound of horse hooves gradually faded away, and the figure became smaller and smaller. Watching his beloved go farther and farther away, Bayer suddenly felt a sense of emptiness in his heart, as if the whole world had lost its color.

Dar, who was standing nearby, was keenly aware of his sister's mood changes and deliberately teased her, "Oh, look at you, I'm afraid you've already caught up with him and left with him!"

Baier rolled her eyes at her sister and pouted, "No way! If anyone is chasing, he should be the one chasing me!"

Dale couldn't help laughing and continued to tease his sister: "But Mo Ming has an important mission now. He has to guard the West City for you. He can't stay in the capital to accompany you. Can you really bear to let him leave like this?"

Bayer bit her lip and answered firmly: "He does have important things to do, but I'm not idle either. I have to stay with the young lady to protect her. Although there are many guards in the palace and I may not be needed, every time the young lady goes out of the palace, there must be a maid who knows martial arts following her closely to ensure her safety." After that, she sighed deeply, her eyes still fixed on the direction where Mo Ming left.

Although she was in a very low mood for two days after sending Mo Ming away, and seemed to have lost her former vitality and brilliance, she quickly adjusted her mentality and cheered up again after a while. One of the important reasons for this was that Hanguli was pregnant again.

After hearing the news, the queen was naturally overjoyed. She was thinking of taking advantage of Hanguli's pregnancy to marry a few more concubines for Keremu to consolidate the royal bloodline. However, Keremu was not enthusiastic about the queen's proposal and always found various reasons and excuses to prevaricate.

Time flies, and in the next year, Hanguli finally gave birth to a healthy baby boy. During this period, Xilin had tried to trip up Keremu many times in secret, creating troubles and obstacles for him. But every time, Keremu cleverly avoided these traps and conspiracies with his intelligence and keen insight. After several unsuccessful attempts, Xilin realized that such small-scale fighting could not shake Keremu's foundation, so she made a decisive decision to lie dormant for the time being and wait for a better time to act.

Meanwhile, the situation on King Cheng's side seemed somewhat unsatisfactory. Ever since the princess successfully gave birth to a daughter, there had been no more good news from the palace.
