Mr. He Ge also quickly received a letter from his son. After reading the letter, he became furious on the spot and complained to the Queen Mother: "What happened to Yunjie? I have repeatedly told him to be careful. Why did he let Princess Jingnan take advantage of it?" ?”

The Queen Mother had just woken up from yet another unconscious drowsiness. She leaned on the bed tiredly and spoke weakly.

"You can't just blame Yun Jie. Maybe it's not because Yun Jie is careless, but because his opponent is too cunning."

He Pingchuan snorted and said disdainfully: "She's just a woman. No matter how cunning she can be, I'd rather believe that that old guy Qi Fengshan is helping her with ideas behind her back."

The Queen Mother frowned and disagreed with his words: "If Yun Jie's mistake was due to his contempt for women, what is the difference between my brother's attitude and Yun Jie's?"

"..." He Pingchuan choked and did not answer with a straight face.

The Queen Mother said again: "Why don't you take women seriously? Don't forget that the founding emperor of the Great Yan Dynasty was a woman. If the posthumous child born to Emperor Xihe was a girl, maybe Dayan So far, it is not a man’s turn to inherit the country.”

"Your Majesty, you are going too far again."

He Pingchuan was speechless at his sister's behavior of talking about Xi He Emperor from time to time.

He is also a girl who is unwilling to be mediocre, but in the Great Yan Dynasty, since Xi and the empress have never succeeded to the throne, her ambition can only be realized by supporting her son to ascend to the throne.

Perhaps it was because her mother was too strong that the little emperor was cowardly and incompetent. Since she could not attend the court as the Queen Mother, she could only rely on her brothers and nephews to exercise her rights on her behalf in the court.

As for Emperor Xihe, whom she admired, it has long since become a yellowed history along with that era, and all the policies related to women that Emperor Xihe implemented at the beginning were later abandoned.

In the final analysis, this world is still dominated by men. Those strange women who occasionally appear in the torrent of history are nothing more than a flash in the pan and a moment of youth.

He Pingchuan sighed and said seriously: "The matter has come to this, it is useless to say more, just write to Yunzhou as Yun Jie said, and let Liu Zongqian and the others control the old princess as soon as possible. If there is any change after King Jingnan, the old princess will It’s the best bargaining chip to contain him.”

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to my brother." The Queen Mother rubbed her sleepy forehead and said rather uncomfortably, "The Ai family doesn't want to cause any more problems, so it's better to let Princess Jingnan come to Beijing as soon as possible. I’m afraid I can’t put off my illness any longer.”

"Yes, I will inform Yun Jie and ask him to bring Princess Jingnan to Beijing as soon as possible."

He Pingchuan couldn't help but feel worried when he saw how uncomfortable she was.

Can Princess Jingnan really cure such a strange disease?

Even if she could really cure it, would she sincerely treat the Queen Mother?

In addition to using the old princess to coerce her, is it necessary to add some more chips?

Her father and brother should be more useful than the old princess, right?

Should she have her father and brothers controlled as well?

He Pingchuan thought about it carefully and felt it was necessary, so he mentioned the Chu family in his letter to Yunzhou and asked the people there to control the Chu family and his son.

Chu Zhao knew nothing about this. Ever since her chin was pinched that day, she had deliberately distanced herself from He Yunjie. She no longer rode a horse when traveling, but sat in a carriage with a few girls to chat and laugh.

He Yunjie could only hear the laughter and laughter coming from the carriage, but he couldn't see her face, so he couldn't tell what he was feeling.

However, he has always been cold-hearted and will not show his emotions. It doesn't matter to him if Chu Zhao doesn't see him, he just follows him silently, sometimes without saying a word for the whole day.

The noble father-in-law watched with cold eyes, watching Mr. Xiaoge return from the mortal world to the misty and unreachable clouds. He felt that the harmonious chat and laughter between him and the princess in the past few days seemed like a dream.

While your father-in-law felt regretful, he also felt that their current state was normal. The two of them were not from the same world and there should not have been any intersection.

If the Queen Mother hadn't been ill, they would never have met each other in their lives.

In fact, this is quite good. No matter what, as long as we can reach the capital safely, it is better than anything else.

He was really tired from this trip.

So, with your father-in-law's eager expectation, after nearly three months of long journey, the team finally arrived outside the south gate of Kyoto on a drizzling morning.

When we set out, it was still midsummer when the vegetation was lush, and when we arrived, it was already late autumn when the leaves were falling.

Chu Zhao stepped out of the carriage and looked at the towering city gate in front of him through the dense rain and fog.

The three characters "Danyang Gate" written on the city gate were written by her herself back then.

Looking at the old handwriting, past events came to mind. The vicissitudes of 200 years were carried by the autumn wind and rain, and her tears burst into tears instantly.

Danyang Gate, Yanjing City, who would have thought that after 200 years, this city that had gone through many trials and tribulations would once again welcome its first owner.

Aao and Chu Zhao stood side by side, looking up at the towering city gate like Chu Zhao.

The rain blurred his vision, and some distant dusty scenes suddenly passed before his eyes.

"I seem to have been here before..."

He murmured, looking at the tall city tower and the soldiers standing on the tower in military uniforms with guns, he felt as if he had stood on the tower and looked into the distance.

However, Chu Zhao did not hear his words, and all that echoed in his ears was Xiao Chi's voice——

"Look, A-Zhao, there is already peace in the world. When I come back, I will give you a prosperous world with clear seas and clear rivers..."

"Azhao, why are you crying? Are you afraid that I won't come back?"

"Don't be afraid, I will definitely come back. Even if I have one breath left, I will crawl back to you."

"I was wrong. I won't say it anymore. I will definitely come back alive and kicking. The child will be born again when I come back. I want to see him come to the world with my own eyes..."

"Azhao..."

"Azhao..."

The calls lingered in his ears through the long years, and Chu Zhao finally couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Princess, why are you crying?" Aao called her softly from the side.

Chu Zhao suddenly came to his senses and realized that he had burst into tears at some point.

"I'm not crying, it's the rain..." she said, wiping her eyes.

Before he finished speaking, the sound of tramping horse hooves suddenly came from inside the city gate. A tall and handsome man with a white face and a beardless man wearing a bright red python robe embroidered with gold appeared at the city gate surrounded by a group of strong guards dressed in black.

Chu Zhao had never seen him before, but he immediately called out his name - Feng Guanlan.
