The daughter of the emperor is reborn to be beautiful and cool, and the King of Zhenbei loves her wi

It’s no wonder that Eunuch Chang Xi was surprised, because it was Emperor Shunqing’s jade pendant with a dragon pattern.

In the royal family, there is an unspoken rule that seeing this jade pendant is like the emperor himself being present.

It goes without saying how heavy the weight of these five words "like the emperor himself" is.

With this jade pendant, he could not only support Shen Nanzhi, but he could even make decisions on behalf of Emperor Shunqing in times of crisis!

The status of this thing is second only to the imperial seal.

Not only Eunuch Chang Xi, but even Shen Nanzhi herself was a little surprised. They did not expect that Emperor Shunqing would give them such an important thing.

But on second thought, since Emperor Shunqing wanted to win over the Shen family, and now he had to rely on Xiao Chuyun to ensure the safety of the northern border for him, he had to show his sincerity.

The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and the Prince of Zhenbei's Mansion would not even look down upon ordinary things.

Although after Emperor Shunqing gave this thing, he would certainly give orders to impose many restrictions on its use, so it would not be as exaggerated as the rumors said, but it would still be of great use.

Not to mention anything else, when meeting someone like Xiao Xiangxue, Shen Nanzhi doesn't even need to waste his breath. Just taking out this jade pendant can make her kneel down and play with it.

Moreover, Shen Nanzhi felt very comfortable when she saw that even though Emperor Shunqing was in great pain, he still pretended to be magnanimous and loving.

But she also pretends.

Shen Nanzhi quickly took a step back and said in panic, "Your Majesty, this...how can I do this? This thing is too valuable. I can't afford it."

She didn't say no, she just said she couldn't afford it. If Emperor Shunqing took it back, it would mean that he had tacitly agreed to her words, and he would not appear to have withdrawn the reward as he had done before, but would be calm and natural.

Moreover, now that they have all been taken out, Emperor Shunqing will not withdraw.

Although he was extremely unwilling, the current situation really put him in a difficult position.

Even though he didn't know Shen Nanzhi's mood and abilities before, after so many things happened after she came to Beijing, Emperor Shunqing had a general idea of ​​it.

What's more, Xiao Chuyun is not an easy person to deal with.

He was clearly taking this opportunity to elevate Shen Nanzhi's status and ask for rewards from Shen Nanzhi!

How could you fool people with ordinary rewards?

Looking at Xiao Chuyun's weak state, it seems that if what he gives does not satisfy him, he will tilt his head and faint from "qi deficiency". Then, who will guard the northern border for him?

Thinking of this, Emperor Shunqing felt a pang of pain in his heart, and he even regretted it deeply.

Of these two men, one seems to be sickly, but is cunning and shrewd, and never suffers any loss; the other seems to be gentle and kind, harmless to people and animals, but is covered with poisonous thorns.

Emperor Shunqing now regrets extremely that he had agreed to this marriage in the first place and let these two people get together!

He was even unhappy to see the marriage between the Shen family and the Xie family, so he tried every means to stop it.

Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for him to agree to the powerful marriage between the Zhenbei Palace and the Shen family.

But apart from him, few people know that this situation is normal.

Xiao Chuyun is infected with a cold poison and has only two years left to live. As long as we stabilize him first, no matter how capable he is, he won't be able to cause much trouble. After all, he won't live for many days.

As for the Shen family, according to his original calculations, the Shen family is already a dog in trouble.

She couldn't even wait for the day to marry Xiao Chuyun.

At that time, Xiao Chuyun proposed to marry him with a military token, so he thought about dealing with it first. Now that he had the military token, one of the two would not live long and the other would not stay long anyway.

But he didn't expect that all his planning would backfire on him.

Except for Shen Changan, all other members of the Shen family are still fine. Shen Huaishu also took this opportunity to regain control of the Shen family army, making it difficult to touch him in the future.

He originally wanted to get rid of the Shen family, but later he needed help from the Shen family. He even had to advance their wedding date in order to win over the Shen family and stabilize Xiao Chuyun.

Moreover, even the military token that had been taken back from Xiao Chuyun and had not yet been warmed up had to be returned now.

It's a loss of both the wife and the army, it's not worth it.

Emperor Shunqing was very annoyed.

But it just can't happen.

On the surface, he could only pretend to be magnanimous, and said to Shen Nanzhi patiently with a loving face: "What are you talking about? You will be my royal daughter-in-law in the future, so of course it is worth it."

Xiao Chuyun also chimed in, "If your father gave it to you, just keep it. Don't let your father down."

After saying that, Xiao Chuyun did not forget to remind Shen Nanzhi: "This is also the trust that the emperor has in you. If it were someone else, the emperor would definitely set many restrictions on such an important jade pendant to prevent others from taking advantage of it, but you won't."

After he finished speaking, he turned to look at his father, and said with a little worry in his eyes: "Father, I wonder if my guess is correct?"

Emperor Shunqing had a lot of grievances to express.

Xiao Chuyun casually blocked his future plans.

He could only force out a gentle smile: "Of course, if you were not my trusted person, why would I reward you with this dragon-patterned jade pendant?"

As soon as he finished speaking, it seemed that Shen Nanzhi was still hesitant and did not dare to accept it, so Xiao Chuyun hurriedly and patiently advised: "Take it. Since it is given by the emperor himself, there is naturally no problem. What's more, the chief eunuch and the attendant are still here. It is recorded in the book, and naturally no one will question you in the future."

Liu Shouxin, the eunuch in charge of the seal, also returned to the palace with Xiao Chuyun this time.

He was usually responsible for recording the imperial edicts issued by Emperor Shunqing and the oral instructions given and stamping them. The attendant was responsible for recording Emperor Shunqing's every word and action. Once recorded, even the emperor could not change it at will. Xiao Chuyun's meaning was very straightforward. With the two of them around, there was no doubt about this matter.

It seemed like he was advising Shen Nanzhi not to worry, but in fact he was speaking to Emperor Shunqing.

How could Emperor Shunqing be willing to give away such an important thing? He was just doing it to please Xiao Chuyun.

Xiao Chuyun had just blocked the way he was going to set up usage restrictions. He suddenly thought, it doesn't matter, as long as they leave, he will immediately order his men to keep an eye on Shen Nanzhi and not let her use the jade pendant to bully others. It would be best to find an excuse to take this thing back after Xiao Chuyun leaves Kyoto, or directly take away the authority to use this thing.

But unexpectedly, Xiao Chuyun directly pointed out the Grand Eunuch and the Attendant.

Remind Emperor Shunqing that the dragon-patterned jade pendant given to Shen Nanzhi must be inscribed with a seal!

It's not just a reward given lip service.

Emperor Shunqing is a king. It is unreasonable for him to order people to keep an eye on and prepare to take back the things just after recording them in the book. If this gets out, he will be laughed at for eternity.

Even if you want to find someone, you have to do it privately and quietly.

Moreover, he would have to wait until Shen Nanzhi found a reason to make trouble for him before asking someone to take it back, but this would take some time.

The most important thing is that even if he wants to do this, he has to take it slow because he really can't afford to lose face.

Emperor Shunqing's eyebrows twitched, and he finally suppressed the urge to kick the two men out. He smiled and said, "Of course, take it with confidence."

Only then did Shen Nanzhi step forward to pay his respects and respectfully accept the dragon-patterned jade pendant.

"Your Majesty, thank you for your reward."

After this incident, Emperor Shunqing felt even more depressed and didn't want to talk about anything else. He waved his hand and said, "It's urgent. The third brother will leave soon. You should go to Chaohua Palace and burn some incense for your mother."

Even if Emperor Shunqing didn't say it, according to common sense, Shen Nanzhi should go on this trip with Xiao Chuyun.

So the two of them thanked him quickly and prepared to leave.

Xiao Chuyun had been rewarded with a seat before. Even though Shen Nanzhi knew that he was very weak, she did not expect that he would stagger and even stand unsteadily as soon as he stood up.

He doesn't look like he's acting.

Just one glance and Shen Nanzhi was frightened.

Because they were discussing confidential matters, only Eunuch Chang Xi was left in the huge imperial study to serve. Apart from Emperor Shunqing, the rest of the eunuch in charge of the seal and the attendant were still on the opposite side, farther away from Xiao Chuyun than Shen Nanzhi.

Besides, they were getting married soon, so they didn't have to worry too much.

It was reasonable for her to take care of him.

So, seeing Xiao Chuyun standing unsteadily and no one around to support him, Shen Nanzhi didn't think twice and stepped forward, holding Xiao Chuyun's arm steadily, and said in a trembling voice: "Prince, you are in such a state, how can you go to the battlefield."

Although these words were spoken to Emperor Shunqing, they were truly spoken out of his genuine concern for Xiao Chuyun.

Emperor Shunqing narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at Xiao Chuyun.

Xiao Chuyun raised his hand and naturally placed it on Shen Nanzhi's shoulder to facilitate Shen Nanzhi's support, and said gently: "It's okay, I never rely on force to fight."

It's the art of deploying troops, it's strategy, it's brains.

Therefore, even though he is so weak now, and even though there are generals in the court who are stronger than him, Emperor Shunqing had to choose him as the commander-in-chief.

Shen Nanzhi's hand was on Xiao Chuyun's arm, and even through the clothes she could feel the chill radiating from his body.

However, the hand that seemed to be placed on her shoulder to steady her body was very warm.

He doesn't fit in with the ice cube he is now.

Shen Nanzhi suppressed her surprise, and after helping Xiao Chuyun step out of the threshold of the imperial study, she took advantage of the moment when Xiao Chuyun raised his leg to come out and grabbed Xiao Chuyun's other hand.

Sure enough, it was freezing cold.

He really was suffering from a cold poison attack, and there should not be any warmth on his body. However, he was afraid that she would catch a cold, so he mobilized his internal energy to his palms, so the hand that fell on her shoulder was warm.

Shen Nanzhi's heart softened, and she couldn't help but lower her voice and said, "My Lord, don't use your inner strength anymore. I don't feel cold at all in this weather."

In Xiao Chuyun's current condition, using his internal energy would only make the effect of the poison more obvious, and he would suffer more pain.

Shen Nanzhi is not afraid of the cold, but this little bit of chill is nothing to her, and she can endure it without even gritting her teeth.

She couldn't bear to see Xiao Chuyun hurt himself over such a trivial matter.

Hearing this, Xiao Chuyun smiled slightly, nodded and said okay.

But in fact, the hand on Shen Nanzhi's shoulder was still warm.

Shen Nanzhi had never thought he was so stubborn before. As she helped him down the stairs, she was about to persuade him again, but she heard Xiao Chuyun say softly, "You are more afraid of the cold than I am now. You can't be careless."

Although the meridians of the body nourished by the ice soul were widened and the internal strength increased by more than one level, the price paid was that in a short period of time, the coldness in the body far exceeded what her body could bear. She had to rely on Lu Pianpian's medicine to regulate her body, otherwise her body would not be able to bear it.

She had experienced this once before, when she had her period.

Being reminded by Xiao Chuyun's words, Shen Nanzhi instantly remembered the embarrassment at that time. Even though so much time had passed, a blush appeared on her cheeks, making her already bright and beautiful face even more beautiful.

She had just been sweating from the heat in the imperial study, and her lips, which were not stained with lip balm, were still tender and tempting, and the corners of her eyes were red. Even with just a casual, light glance, she was already full of allure and charm without realizing it.

She was a head shorter than Xiao Chuyun. Even though Xiao Chuyun had tried his best to support his body and not press on her, because she had to hold Xiao Chuyun up, Shen Nanzhi's collar, which was originally tightly crossed, was slightly open. From Xiao Chuyun's perspective, he could just see a section of her snow-white neck and the delicate collarbone faintly visible in front of her body.

Xiao Chuyun's eyes dimmed, and his body, which had been as cold as falling into an ice cellar, seemed to be on fire.

His Adam's apple rolled, and he turned his head away uncomfortably, avoiding her gaze.

I originally wanted to take the opportunity to get closer to her, but I didn't expect that when I got closer, I would be the one who suffered.

Xiao Chuyun curled his lips in a bitter smile, but still did not let go of Shen Nanzhi's hand.

It was not known whether it was due to Emperor Shunqing's negligence or he was really furious, but even though he knew that Xiao Chuyun had difficulty walking due to the onset of the cold poison, he did not order anyone to send them over on foot.

Xiao Chuyun didn't take the initiative to mention it, and the two of them just supported each other and walked towards Chaohua Palace.

Shen Nanzhi had no idea about Xiao Chuyun's romantic thoughts that could not be revealed to outsiders. What she wanted to ask now was what the situation was like in Yuzhou and whether Xiao Qian'an was really dead.

And do you know about the strange Xiao Chuyun in Yuquan Palace?

After all, that was the bedroom of Xiao Chuyun's real grandmother.

Back then, Concubine Fang was the biological mother of Prince Ning, and Princess Ning's wife Fang Yujiao was also the legitimate daughter of their Fang family. In this sense, Prince Ning and Princess Ning are cousins.

Not long after the death of the previous emperor, Concubine Fang also passed away due to excessive grief. From then on, the Yuquan Palace was completely sealed off.

As the niece of Concubine Fang, Princess Ning must have visited Yuquan Palace many times before her wedding with Prince Ning. Prince Ning and Princess Ning must have known a lot about Yuquan Palace. However, not long after Concubine Fang left, Prince Ning fled Kyoto overnight with Princess Ning and raised the banner of rebellion. Since then, they have never had the opportunity to come into contact with Yuquan Palace again.

Prince Ning's wife died early, and Xiao Chuyun grew up in such an environment. It should be impossible for him to get any clues from Prince Ning.

But Shen Nanzhi still wanted to discuss it with him. Even if he didn't know about it, Xiao Chuyun was proficient in secret passages and mechanisms. If she could go with Xiao Chuyun to find out, she would have a better chance of success.

Although he knew the danger, Shen Nanzhi had a strong intuition that there must be a vital secret hidden there.

Especially when Shen Nanzhi thought of the little eunuch named Xizi, even the confidential matter that Emperor Shunqing wanted to use Ye Kunshan as an opportunity to get rid of the Shen family was spread by that little eunuch, which showed that the little eunuch was deeply trusted by Emperor Shunqing.

How could a young eunuch who was trusted by Emperor Shunqing and privately entrusted with an important task sneak into Yuquan Palace just to feed a few wild cats?

What's more, Shen Nanzhi saw the secret passage under the hall with his own eyes.

Shen Nanzhi had too many questions she wanted to discuss with Xiao Chuyun, but because there were spies and informants everywhere outside, she could only endure it and finally came to Chaohua Palace.
