The tyrant's mother was reborn, and all the civil and military officials cried with joy

This was probably the quietest meal Zhu Yue had ever had. She used chopsticks to stuff meat into her mouth one bite at a time. However, she did not have the usual joy in her heart and the food tasted like chewing wax.

Seeing her like this, Qin Yan felt distressed and secretly cursed Prince Jing several times in his heart. He also looked down on Lu He. After all, it was this guy who brought this bad news.

After dinner, Qin Yan took Zhu Yue’s hand and took a walk in the yard. He hoped that by accompanying her in this way, he could make her feel a little more at ease.

Although he himself was not so calm.

"My lord, my lady, there is a woman outside the door, she says she is the Princess of Pingxi and wants to see you!"

The servant hurried over and knelt on the ground to speak.

Zhu Yue almost subconsciously shook off Qin Yan's hand and ran towards the door.

Sure enough, she saw Lin Yao and his wife at the door. Without thinking, she rushed over and hugged A Ling: "Woo woo, why are you here?"

"Silly girl, didn't you tell me to come to the capital for a feast? Why are you still crying?" A Ling wiped Zhu Yue's tears, smiled gently, and then said, "We have all heard about the orphan of the late emperor. I just got here and was a little worried about you, so I came to see you. You really have no future!"

As she spoke, A Ling wiped her tears, her eyes filled with heartache.

Of course Zhu Yue knew that she was a complete loser in her current state, but she just couldn't help wanting to cry, especially when facing A Ling.

"We grew up together. Don't you know who Ayan is? I can guarantee that the child is definitely a bastard of unknown origin!"

"If it is really confirmed that it is Ayan's child, then it must be a misunderstanding. Ayue, don't cry, don't worry, we will take care of it for you!"

Lin Yao walked up and said something as well. He still had a minimum of trust in his good brother. After all, the love story between these two people had caused a lot of sensation back then.

At this time, Qin Yan walked out and looked at the three people hugging each other and crying, and coughed awkwardly.

After hearing the voice, everyone looked directly in the direction of Qin Yan, and then Lin Yao and his wife were both dumbfounded.

There are actually two people in this world who are so similar.

"Let me introduce you, this is my husband, the current young minister, Qin Yan."

Zhu Yue wiped away her tears and began to introduce each other.

Qin Yan stepped forward and bowed politely: "Greetings to the King of Pingxi, and to the Princess."

Although he was powerful, compared to a first-rank prince, a prince was still more honorable, and he should have performed the ceremony. However, he looked like this, so Lin Yao stupidly shook his head: "No, no, no, it's not necessary."

Ah Ling was stunned for a moment before she reacted. She grabbed Zhu Yue and went to the side: "You are really good. How can you make them look exactly the same? I say, why are you playing so hard now?"

It's already this time and you still have the mood to talk about this?

Zhu Yue looked at A Ling's excited look and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She said helplessly, "A Yan is A Yan, and he is him. Although they look similar, they are not exactly the same person!"

"Go to hell with you. We grew up together, how could I not understand you? If it weren't for this face, I would have lived in vain if you had looked at him a little more!"

"But you have to think carefully. Even though they look the same, they are not the same person after all. Don't get yourself into trouble."

A Ling kept talking to Zhu Yue, feeling somewhat worried.

Zhu Yue rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "How many times have I told you that they are different and I can tell them apart. Now that you two are here, don't leave. My house is big, just live with me!"

"If it were any other time, I would be with you, but this time, my husband and I came to the capital to pretend to be grandsons and to express our submission to the emperor. Besides, other princes will also be coming to the capital soon, so we can't ask for special treatment. Let's go to the post station to rest."

"Ayue, I'll come find you when everything calms down. Then no one will be able to get in our way, okay?"

A Ling smiled gently, touched Zhu Yue's cheek, turned around and left with Lin Yao.

Zhu Yue felt warm in her heart looking at their backs. At this moment, she finally realized that these two people came here specifically to see her. They came to see her because they were thinking about her as they grew up together.

"Okay, the problem will be solved." Qin Yan came over from behind and put his arm around Zhu Yue's shoulders. "The prince's visit to Beijing is no small matter. The emperor has entrusted me with the city defense. I'm afraid I will be very busy during this period. You must protect yourself well and don't lose your composure. Do you understand?"

Zhu Yue knew that even if she was feeling very uncomfortable right now, it was not the time to lose her temper, so she nodded obediently and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm not some ignorant little girl."

After that, she took his hand and walked inside together: "I don't care what outsiders say or think, but there are some things I want to make clear to you in advance. I like you and marry you because you are Qin Yan, not because of you Zhang Lian. You are not allowed to have wild thoughts, and you are not allowed to feel uncomfortable, understand?"

Qin Yan originally thought that he had hidden his feelings very well, but he didn't expect that she still saw it.

Seeing her serious look, Qin Yan nodded immediately: "Okay, I will listen to you, Madam!"

That's more or less.

The princes' fiefs were located at different distances, so they did not arrive in the capital at the same time. For three to five days in a row, the princes' carriages entered the capital, and the entire capital entered a level one combat readiness state. Zhu Yue was in the Yangxin Palace, discussing things with several children.

She looked at Xiao Jingzheng and said straight to the point: "You spent so much effort to get these guys into the capital, what exactly do you want to do?"

"Mother, I want to reduce the power of the feudal lords!" Xiao Jingzheng looked at Zhu Yue very seriously: "Not only are their forces growing stronger and stronger, but they also ask me for more and more money every year. If this continues, the court will be weak and they will be strong. As an emperor, it would be ridiculous if I don't even have the most basic say!"

Xiao Jingzheng was never a person who was inferior to others since he was a child. He was born to be an emperor, and his great ambition was tailor-made for the throne.

Although he is still young, the policies he has implemented are completely flawless. He is very efficient. Although the court officials are dissatisfied with him, they have never thought of forcing him to abdicate. After all, the world is well governed in Xiao Jingzheng's hands, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Who in the court can not be convinced? Who dares not to be convinced?

Zhu Yue felt relieved when she saw the child's firm attitude. "When your father was alive, he thought the princes were a serious concern. Now it seems that you two have the same opinion."
