Prince Ning did not speak, and Li Songru did not dare to speak easily to break the silence.
Time passed slowly as the two of them had their own thoughts.
Li Songru suddenly felt a little cold, so he stretched out his hand and pulled his clothes.
At this time, Prince Ning's voice also came.
"I remember that there is an eighty-year-old mother in Songru's family?"
Li Songru replied: "Exactly, my mother is very old. It is a pity that as a son, I cannot serve her and take care of her in her old age."
Nodding, Prince Ning said: "This dynasty governs the world with filial piety. It is really enviable to others that Songru still has an eighty-year-old mother alive. And you have served me for many years. I cannot let your mother and son be separated like this under any circumstances."
.”
"Let's do this. I will immediately send an order to take your mother to Jincheng, and you will leave the military camp and return to Jincheng first, place your mother properly, and enjoy the happiness of family first, and then consider the follow-up matters.
"
Prince Ning's words made Li Songru's heart suddenly sink.
He didn't understand what happened and made King Ning drive him back.
Taking a breath, Li Songru said: "Your Majesty, this is the time when the situation is changing strangely. If the general..."
"Can't we do it without you?" Prince Ning interrupted Li Songru lightly.
It was this sentence that made Li Songru hold back all his words.
Finally, when the words came out of his mouth, they turned out to be: "I never meant that. Please be aware of it, Your Majesty."
Prince Ning had a cold expression and said calmly: "After working hard for many years, you should take a good rest. There is no need to think about other things too much."
Li Songru raised his head, looked at Prince Ning's cold and expressionless face, and suddenly felt a chill coming from his bones.
Having worked for Prince Ning through life and death for so many years, I thought my loyalty had long been seen in Prince Ning's eyes, but I didn't expect that at the critical moment, Prince Ning still didn't believe me.
Unreserved dedication and dedication were ultimately met with suspicion and alienation. This feeling gave Li Songru a heart-breaking sense of sadness.
He pursed his lips, stood up and said, "General, thank you very much for your kindness."
Prince Ning nodded and said, "In this case, you can set off as soon as dawn. I will also order someone to pick up your mother as soon as possible."
Li Songru suddenly said: "Your Majesty, my mother is over eighty years old, and she really can't stand the fatigue of travelling. I would like to ask Your Majesty's permission to go back."
Prince Ning stared into Li Songru's eyes and said nothing.
Li Songru had no expression on his face, waiting for King Ning's decision.
Didn't he know that his request could easily anger Prince Ning, and with Prince Ning's suspicious and jealous temperament, he would inevitably have random thoughts.
But Li Songru understood clearly that no matter how loyal and cautious he was, Prince Ning's character determined that he would not trust anyone. On the contrary, the closer he was to those around him, the easier it would be to arouse his suspicion.
In this case, let's just do it one step at a time and see what happens to Prince Ning.
At this time, Li Songru's heart was already cold, and he came up with the idea of no longer serving King Ning in despair.
"Songru, the mountains are high and the water is long. The road is extremely dangerous. I am also worried about an accident. How about letting your mother come to Jincheng and you and your son can be reunited?" King Ning said warmly.
Li Songru lowered his head.
He could feel that this was Prince Ning giving him a chance.
