Nangong Yuan didn't really care about his brother's teasing.

With her current status and position, she has plenty of room to make any choice.

Fortunately, Xiao Heyun didn't say anything.

His injuries had almost healed, but the healing was so fast that he was afraid people would get suspicious, so he stayed at home.

Nangong Yuan went to court and paid homage to the new emperor.

There were still a lot of things to do, including the funeral of the late emperor, the drastic change in the palace that day, the transfers and rewards and punishments of personnel, and so on. He was extremely busy.

Nangong Yuan stayed at home and went to court from time to time.

However, the emperor also asked her about this.

"When do you and Third Brother plan to get married?"

Nangong Yuan was suspicious. Why were they all asking him the same question?

"Um, I don't have any idea about this yet."

Xiao Weiye was a little surprised and said, "Could it be that Third Brother doesn't want to get married? If he lets you down, I will definitely not let him off."

She waved her hands quickly: "That's not the case, but he and I have special status, so let's put the marriage on hold for now."

"I am not a pedantic person. If the Nangong family was going to rebel, they could have done it long ago. Why wait until now?"

Xiao Weiye paused and said, "Besides, my third brother has been praised by the army for leading troops in battles over the years. I don't want the court to lose such a general."

"Your Majesty, do you want him to continue to go to the North?"

"This is what I think. Dajing's military generals are in decline and it is difficult to train them all at once. I feel more at ease with you and my third brother here."

Xiao Weiye was a man of insight and was not worried that anyone would seize his throne.

If Xiao Heyun really wanted to be the emperor, he could have been killed that night and no one could have stopped him.

But he didn't········.

Therefore, Xiao Weiye understood what he meant through such concession.

"Your Majesty is holy."

Xiao Weiye paused and said, "It's not easy for you to go from the boudoir to the court, and I don't want anyone to trap you in the backyard. You are still responsible for Hongzhou."

In response, Nangong Yuan bowed her head to express her gratitude.

"As for the matter between you two, if you want to grant me the marriage, I agree. If you have other ideas, that's up to you."

There are few people in this world who can coerce her unless she is willing.

So Nangong Yuan didn’t care too much.

After she returned, she asked Xiao Heyun indirectly.

The man said that although His Majesty meant this, perhaps it was just talk.

Nangong Yuan felt a little disappointed. Although she had not yet decided whether to get married, she couldn't help but pout when she heard this answer.

······

The next day, Tao Zhu walked in happily.

"Miss, get up and dress up."

Nangong Yuan finished washing up and was pressed down on the chair by her.

"Why dress so elaborately?"

Tao Zhu smiled and said, "Miss, go out and take a look and you will know."

She walked out of the door with some suspicion, and saw Xiao Heyun waiting for her not far away.

"I...come here to propose marriage today."

Nangong Yuan's depressed mood suddenly became happy. She couldn't hide her smile and asked, "Why do you suddenly want to get married again?"

"I originally wanted to follow your wishes. I thought you didn't want to be bound, but then I thought, maybe I'm just stupid and don't understand."

Nangong Yuan couldn't help laughing: "Then why don't you ask me if I am willing to agree?"

Her marriage still needs her personal approval.

Xiao Heyun said: "Ayuan, are you willing to marry me?"

She stood not far away, with a smile on her pretty face, and said, "Of course."

Maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to marry him.

Isn't it for this man that she stays here anyway?

If you don't want him to die or go to a dead end, then keep him.

"A Yuan."

He seemed relieved and took a few steps forward to hold her in his arms.

Nangong Yuan said: "Let's go, mother is waiting for us."

Their wedding was scheduled for a month later.

His Majesty personally issued an edict to grant the marriage and also gave a lot of rewards.

Such a marriage was very unexpected. I originally thought that the emperor would not agree, but later I found out that I seemed to have thought too much.

Because on the wedding day, the emperor came in person to witness the wedding.

"I haven't thanked the Marquis for saving me on the parade ground that day."

Nangong Yuan said: "This is my responsibility, Your Majesty, why do you care?"

"No matter what, I remember it."

He turned around and said, "Marquis Ding'an is a pillar of the country. He is definitely not an ordinary woman. I am relieved that you two will serve the country together after you get married."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Xiao Heyun nodded in agreement, knowing that he was supporting Nangong Yuan.

No matter who heard about the feat of saving the emperor, they would know that Nangong Yuan could not be offended.

·······

The wedding was grand and since His Majesty was personally seeking a marriage partner, it was extremely lively.

In the evening, Nangong Yuan sat in the bridal chamber waiting for him.

"A Yuan."

The man smelled a little drunk, but looked very sober.

"You're not drunk?"

"How dare I? I only drank a little."

After Xiao Heyun finished speaking, he went to wash up. He knew that Nangong Yuan didn't like the smell of alcohol.

"Your Majesty has granted me three months of marriage leave. I will stay in Kyoto during these days. After that, I will return to Hongzhou."

Xiao Heyun sighed and took off her crown: "Sometimes I feel that it is better not to be a marquis."

"Why, you'll come with me?"

The man thought for a moment and said, "Then I will go with you to Hongzhou first, and then to the northern border."

The North remained strong during the years he was away, and that was all thanks to him.

The generals under his command were all waiting for him to return.

"Alright, let the Hongzhou Army see my handsome husband."

Xiao Heyun kissed her lips fiercely: "Don't show it to others."

"Then I'll take care of it myself."

Nangong Yuan threw herself into his arms and felt very calm for a moment.

She was caught in a dilemma for many years, sometimes not looking at it, but she couldn't really escape it.

Fortunately... hard work pays off.

"A Yuan, I love you."

His deep voice expressed his love, and his warm embrace enveloped her. The two of them slept in each other's arms as they had done for many days and nights.

···········

Three months later, Nangong Yuan and his group rushed to Hongzhou.

There is serious internal strife in the Paracel Islands, but the border still needs to be guarded.

Xiao Heyun stayed in Hongzhou for a few days and had to leave.

There were also enemies on the northern border, so the two men met once a month at the northwest base.

Although we are apart more often, our relationship is getting better and better.

In the fifth year of Guangchong, the northern border was invaded. Xiao Heyun, who had been silent for many years, led his troops into battle to kill the enemy and regained his own glory.

······

Since then, Dajing's border has been impregnable.

Three years later, Nangong Yuan had a child, a little girl.

She taught him martial arts personally and he learned it from a young age.

Xiao Heyun would always bring the gift he had been searching for for a long time to the base and give the mother and daughter a hug.

"When do you think we'll go back?"

Nangong Yuan said: "The border is quiet, which is good, but my brother is getting married, so we can go back."

"it is good."

Xiao Heyun carried his little daughter on his shoulders and looked at her with a smile from a distance.
