After passing through the book, Mr. Chief Assistant came to rely on me

"Don't worry, I won't marry her." Cheng Shubai sat next to Su Xiaoxi, put his arm around her shoulders, and spoke in a relaxed tone.

Su Xiaoxi turned to look at Cheng Shubai, "Ms. sir, are you sure?"

"Your husband-in-law naturally has to make the decision on his own marriage, so don't worry." Cheng Shubai smiled and patted Su Xiaoxi on the shoulder to comfort her.

"Master..."

"You don't have to persuade me, I've made up my mind." Cheng Shubai continued.

"Then...are you sure?" Su Xiaoxi asked.

"Don't worry!" Cheng Shubai still maintained a confident smile.

"Then I wish you success." Su Xiaoxi smiled. At this time, Su Xiaoxi had no other choice.

She only hoped that Cheng Shubai could successfully resolve the war in Beirong so that the people would not be disturbed by disasters.

Cheng Shubai smiled and rubbed Su Xiaoxi's long hair, and his loving eyes fell on Su Xiaoxi.

"You girl."

"Ms. sir, I'm sleepy and want to sleep."

Su Xiaoxi yawned, moved inside, and motioned for Cheng Shubai to get on the bed.

Cheng Shubai hesitated for a moment, then climbed up, held Su Xiaoxi and fell asleep in his arms.

Su Xiaoxi leaned against Cheng Shubai's chest and closed her eyes.

The night is blurry, the moon is dark and the wind is high.

The next day.

In the morning, all civil and military officials gathered together, and the atmosphere was solemn and tense.

"Your Majesty, the Beirong envoy will leave tomorrow. Should we send troops to pursue him?" the prime minister stood up and asked.

As soon as the Prime Minister finished speaking, the officials immediately started talking.

"If we send troops to attack again at this time, I am afraid it will have an impact on the city at the junction of the two countries." Some ministers objected.

"We agree with your lord's statement." For a time, the ministers opposed sending troops.

Nangong Chen sat on the dragon chair and said nothing.

Cheng Shubai watched this scene quietly, with a sarcastic smile on his lips.

Sure enough, everyone was still afraid of war. In this case, he had to use extraordinary means to resolve this entanglement.

"I have made up my mind. Starting immediately, we will prepare military supplies within three days." After a long silence, Nangong Chen slowly spoke.

As soon as this statement came out, all the ministers were surprised, but no one dared to speak out against it.

After all, Nangong Chen is the king, how dare they make Nangong Chen angry.

Then the hall quickly calmed down, and all the ministers performed their duties.

Then Nangong Chen looked at Cheng Shubai, "What do you think, Aiqing?"

"Your Majesty is wise." Cheng Shubai bowed respectfully, said four words, and then stepped aside.

After Cheng Shubai left, Nangong Chen's eyes focused on the position where Cheng Shubai was standing just now.

It was not that he didn't understand that this expedition was dangerous, but he had to do it.

Because only in this way can Princess Xueling's thoughts about her daughter be completely cut off, and only in this way can the possibility of the princess never thinking about Cheng Shubai again can be eliminated forever.

This was his selfishness, and he had no choice but to admit it.

When Su Xiaoxi woke up, the sky was already bright.

There was no one else in the room except Yun Luo, who was guarding the bed. Su Xiaoxi opened the quilt and got out of bed, put on her shoes and walked to the dressing table.

Seeing this, Yun Luo quickly grabbed a set of clothes and stepped forward to help Su Xiaoxi change.

"Princess, do you plan to go to tonight's banquet?" Qiuyue asked tentatively.

Su Xiaoxi glanced at herself in the mirror and nodded, "Yeah!"

She is going!She wanted to see Xueling's ending with her own eyes.

"Then this servant will accompany the princess." Seeing Su Xiaoxi answering her so firmly, Yun Luo said no more.

Su Xiaoxi nodded and did not refuse. Not only did she want to go, but she also had to ruin Xue Ling's reputation.

She already knew what happened between Su Xiaoxi and Cheng Shubai last night, and she also knew that Su Xiaoxi's forbearance over the years was all for Cheng Xubai.

But she couldn't stand by and watch this matter. Cheng Xubai was not worth what Su Xiaoxi had to pay for him.

After dressing up, Su Xiaoxi and Yun Luo left the dormitory.

On the way, Yun Luo hesitated to speak. Su Xiaoxi seemed to sense Yun Luo's strangeness and turned to look at her, "Yun Luo, what's wrong?"

"Princess, the chief assistant's mother also attended this banquet." Yun Luo said carefully.

She didn't want Su Xiaoxi to have a conflict, but at this time, there was no way to avoid it.

Cheng Shubai's mother was also Su Xiaoxi's mother-in-law. She had been seriously ill in bed before, but now she recovered under Su Xiaoxi's treatment. The Cheng family also loved Su Xiaoxi very much.

Hearing Yunluo mention Cheng Shubai's mother, Su Xiaoxi's face showed an expression of joy, "Of course I want to visit her."

There was no displeasure in Su Xiaoxi's voice, and there was even a hint of joy.

"But..." Yun Luo wanted to say something else.

Su Xiaoxi had already interrupted Yun Luo's words, "Yun Luo, remember what I told you last night."

Yun Luo lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, saying nothing.

How could she not know that the princess did this all for her husband.

It is not easy for the princess to achieve this level this time.

"My slave understands." After a long time, Yun Luo responded in a low voice.

Su Xiaoxi nodded.

"Princess, there is one more thing you need to do. I wonder if you have remembered it." Suddenly, Yun Luo thought of something and spoke.

"What's the matter?" Su Xiaoxi was confused.

"Princess, have you forgotten?"

"what's up?"

Yun Luo took a deep breath, then summoned up her courage and said to Su Xiaoxi, "You once told your servants that when you return from Beirong, you will bring your consort back to worship and get married."

After listening to Yun Luo's words, Su Xiaoxi's thoughts fell into silence.

Yes, she had told Yun Luo that when she came back from Beirong, she would take Cheng Shubai back to the capital to get married.

However, due to the current turmoil in the Ning Dynasty, Su Xiaoxi could only postpone her marriage for the sake of the justice of her family and country.

She doesn't blame Yun Luo, because everyone has what they want to do, and she just hopes that her decision will not be wrong.

After a while, Su Xiaoxi raised her eyes with a solemn expression, "Tell my father that I will try to postpone the marriage as much as possible."

Yun Luo was stunned, then nodded.

"I know what to do." Su Xiaoxi said calmly, and then walked towards the door.

"Princess, I will see you off." Seeing Su Xiaoxi going out, Yun Luo quickly got up and followed.

……

In the palace, as soon as Su Xiaoxi stepped into the palace, she noticed a depressing aura coming towards her.

I saw that Beirong's envoy was still here, and the emperor was sitting in the first place. Su Xiaoxi bowed to the emperor and then sat next to Cheng Shubai. Cheng Shubai also looked at Su Xiaoxi with a gentle face. The two of them were a good match for each other.

"Princess, I have something to ask you." Princess Xue Ling sat at the head of the room dignifiedly and elegantly, staring at Su Xiaoxi unblinkingly.

Su Xiaoxi looked at Princess Xueling indifferently and said nothing.

"I heard that Princess Xiaoxi is good at using poison?" Princess Xue Ling continued, her tone questioning, "But is it true?"
