King Ping An, Xia Qianan, rushed back to the palace in military uniform. The imperial troops guarding the palace had already withdrawn.

Princess Yueyang was waiting at the door of the mansion with her son and daughter. When she saw the figure approaching from a distance, she had tears in her eyes, which made Xia Qian'an heartbroken.

He turned over and dismounted, and supported his beloved wife as she walked inside, "The cold wind is soaking to the bones in this winter. Madam, please take care of yourself."

He spoke softly to Princess Liyang, then turned around and scolded Xia Yu, "You too, why don't you know how to feel sorry for your mother and little sister, so you just let them stand in the wind?"

Xia Yu: "..." You feel sorry for your wife, why are you scolding me?

At this time, the plain white was still hanging in the front hall. In order to make the opponent believe that Princess Zhaohua was dead, all procedures were arranged strictly according to the ancestral system, and a coffin was even parked inside.

Xia Yuyan's eyes, which were already red from crying, were filled with tears, "Dad, sister, she, she..." Before she could finish her words, she was already crying.

Xia Qianan: "..."

Princess Yueyang: "..."

Xia Yu: "..."

It seems that these three people have forgotten to tell Xia Yuyan the truth...

Yunhuang came back at this time, and took Qi Jingyu with him. After all, coming back from the dead was too fantasy, but it was different with the shield of the Imperial Master.

As long as it is said that he saved Yunhuang's life, no one will doubt it no matter how incredible it is.

"Who provoked my Yan'er? Can my sister take revenge for you?"

A familiar calm and doting voice came, and Xia Yuyan, who was covering her face and crying, suddenly raised her head.

When a normal person sees a dead person standing alive in front of them, their first reaction is fear, just like the servants in the courtyard now.

But it's obvious that Xia Yuyan is not a normal person.

She was stunned for a moment at first, but then ran over and said something that made everyone present speechless, "The book says that after death, the soul will linger in the world for seven days. It is true!"

Everyone: "..."

The quiet front yard was surrounded by an awkward atmosphere.

"Pfft!" Qi Jingyu couldn't help laughing, and patted Yunhuang's shoulder in a mean manner.

She wasn't angry, she just took off Qi Jingyu's claws and asked softly, "Is it funny?"

Hearing her question, Qi Jingyu seemed to be aware of the danger, and reacted with his mouth before his brain, "It's not funny!"

"But I see that my uncle seems very happy..." Yunhuang slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

Qi Jingyu denied it flatly, "No, no..." The dangerous feeling became clearer.

The next moment, his premonition came true.

"Little Nine."

"Meow~"

Hearing the meow, Qi Jingyu reacted almost subconsciously, started running with Qinggong, and a round orange figure followed closely behind him.

One person and one cat began to jump up and down in Prince Ping'an's palace.

It wasn't until they ran away that Xia Yuyan realized that the sister in front of her was not a soul, but a living person standing in front of her.

Then she threw herself into Yunhuang's arms and cried even louder, as if she wanted to cry out all the grievances she had suffered these days...

Within a few days, the champion Hou Xiahong escaped from death and regained control of the northwest army, and news of the counterattack against the Western Qin was reported back to Kyoto.

Winter passes and spring comes.

In the past few months, good news has continued to come back from the front line. People said that Xia Xiaohou used his troops like a god, and that he was the reincarnation of a god to protect the heavenly saint.

Until the Western Qin Dynasty sought peace and a truce, these rumors became even more magical.

The emperor also became anxious to betroth Qi Ying to Xia Hong, and had already sent a letter asking him to return to the court.

This time Xia Hong did not refuse the emperor's order, arranged the northwest military affairs, left the Xianjie team and the Western Qin envoy behind, and rushed back quickly.

He has not been home for five years. After experiencing a narrow escape, he is even more eager to return to his parents.

But at that time, the war in the northwest left him no time to escape, so he could only endure it for the time being.

What Yunhuang didn't expect was that he came back alone, without the herb picking girl who saved him, and there was no spark between the two of them.

According to the normal routine, a female herb collector from a humble family rescued a seriously injured young general, and then the two fell in love with each other as they stayed together day and night, and finally made a private commitment for life.

Is that so?

That should be it, right?

Why is the story different when it comes to Xia Hong?

"The master has found out..." Jiujiu said with difficulty, "... Xia Hong left the herb-gathering girl's home when he woke up from serious injuries, and hid in a cave on the mountain to recuperate. During this period, the herb-gathering girl looked for him. He rejected her on the grounds that men and women were not intimate, so the herb-gathering girl brought him medicine every day. After returning to the northwest military camp, he gave her a thousand taels of silver in return, and then the two of them had no contact."

"..." Yunhuang has traveled through so many worlds, and Xia Hong is definitely the straightest straight man she has ever seen. He deserves to be single for twenty-four years.

It seems that she has to find a way to deal with the emperor's marriage.

Qi Ying and Yun Huang are the same age, twenty-nine years old, and have not yet been married. Although the Tiansheng Dynasty is more tolerant towards women, there are not many women who are not betrothed to others at the age of eighteen, let alone a royal princess.

Even Qi Yao has already made an engagement, which shows how serious the emperor's calculations are.

As for Yunhuang's engagement, as long as she didn't let go, the emperor would not dare to mess with her.

The eldest princess Yueyang even wanted to take care of her for the rest of her life, and was worried that her body would not be able to recover and she would die early if she married into her husband's family.

The two brothers of the Xia family didn't want her to get married casually, unless the other party truly cared for each other and she volunteered.

Even Xia Yuyan felt that her sister would stay in the harem for the rest of her life, and she was willing to support her.

The only one who knew the truth, Prince Xia Qianan of Ping An, did not dare to say a word...

Yunhuang, who had been thinking about it in the house for two days but couldn't come up with a perfect solution, rubbed her temples and sighed slightly.

According to the original owner's impression of this big brother, if you put a knife to his neck if he doesn't want to do something, it will be useless. If you get desperate, you can really do something to resist the order in court.

Nowadays, although the emperor favors Prince Ping'an, he is also wary. If there is a stalemate with the emperor on the matter of in-laws, the gain outweighs the loss.

What's more, the prince and Xia Yuyan's wedding is approaching. If it is not handled well, she is afraid that she will suffer in the royal family.

After all, there are many ways to "train" people in the harem, and there are always things the prince cannot protect.

Just when she had a headache, Jiujiu came back from the kitchen after eating and drinking. He jumped up to her and rubbed her little head against her.

Yunhuang glanced at it, then the sadness in his eyes disappeared, and he slowly raised the corners of his mouth.

Why did you forget that magic stick!

As long as he said a few words casually, he was afraid that the emperor wouldn't listen!

The next day, Yunhuang took Xiaotao with her. She was carrying a gift in her hand. The master and the servant handed over greeting cards to Si Tianjian in the name of thanking the Imperial Master for saving his life.
