Although there is the advantage of starting a new life, some things are often unexpected.

On October [-]th, news suddenly came from the southern border, saying that the barbarians bypassed the blockade set up by Zhennan King on the front line and directly attacked the southern border state.

Fortunately, there was still a defense line of Marquis Wu'an in the prefecture, which managed to stop Nanman's offensive in the end.

But just like that, Zhennan King vomited blood after the incident. Since the news of the defeat of the army came back to the capital from the southern border, he was still unconscious. Now his life may be in danger.

After Chen Chen received the news, he immediately asked the new emperor to return to the southern border.

But the new emperor didn't agree to him, and he didn't even agree to Chen Chen's request to meet him, he just dragged and hid.

Xue Ming stood at the bottom of the hall, looked at the new emperor, and asked, "Is the emperor really... not going to let Zhennan Wang's son go back to the southern border?"

The new emperor sat on his seat, resting his chin with one hand, glanced down at Xue Ming, and asked a little lazily, "Why, is there someone talking about me behind my back?"

Xue Ming lowered his head and replied: "No...it's just that I think that Princess Dachang might intercede for Prince Zhennan's son..."

The new emperor didn't take it seriously and said, "So what?"

Xue Ming said in a low voice: "If the eldest princess asks for mercy... Your Majesty, will you let Zhennan Prince's son go back to the southern border?"

The new emperor smiled coldly, and said: "She wants Chen Chen to go, so she should exchange it with someone."

"She wants to be a good person and win their hearts, so I will help her too, but she has to pay a certain price. I want to see who she will exchange for Chen Chen."

"If the person she exchanged satisfies me, maybe I will agree to let Chen Chen go back to the southern border."

Xue Ming was silent for a moment, and in the end he didn't speak any more. He just bowed to the new emperor and then retreated.

The new emperor looked at Xue Ming's back as he walked out, a deep darkness flashed across his eyes, but no one saw it.

Zhennan Wangfu in Beijing.

Ever since Chen Chen received the news that Zhennan King vomited blood and fell into a coma, he was in a hurry, and repeatedly asked the new emperor for orders to return to the southern border, but the new emperor didn't even see him.

If the new emperor does not agree, he will not be able to go back to the southern border for a day.

No matter how impatient he was, there was nothing he could do.

Seeing him like this, Han Sheng said, "My lord, why don't you go to the Dachang Princess' mansion for a try? Maybe the Dachang Princess can help you solve the current matter..."

Chen Chen pondered for a while, but in the end he shook his head slowly and said: "The emperor won't even see me, even if he asks the eldest princess for help, it's just for the eldest princess. It's just trouble..."

Han Sheng frowned and said, "But the emperor is not as powerful as the eldest princess, maybe you should give it a try, son."

"So what if the power is weak?" Chen Chen smiled mockingly, and said, "If the name is not right, the words will not go well. If you can't occupy that name, it will be very difficult to accomplish many things."

"Eldest princess... I hope I can..."

Han Sheng pretended that he hadn't heard Chen Chen's last words, and continued to ask: "Then what are you going to do? The prince is in danger now, but you can't go back to the southern border, really..."

Chen Chen shook his head: "I don't know either..."

He doesn't know who else can help him now...

Originally, he was a pawn used by the first emperor to restrain his father, but now his father is critically ill, but the new emperor still does not allow him to go back to the south.

Is the new emperor still worried that his father is a fake illness?

If so, then this new emperor is really more cautious than the previous emperor...

The Zhennan Prince's Mansion has nothing to do, but the Dachang Princess' Mansion is still waiting for the news from Luling.

Jing Ya pushed the door from the outside and went into the study, and said while walking in: "Your Highness, do you know about the dying news of King Zhennan from the southern border?"

The Eldest Princess pressed her forehead and nodded, "Got it."

Jing Ya walked up to the eldest princess and asked: "The prince of Zhennan wanted to go back to the southern border, but the emperor didn't agree. Can your highness help him this time?"

The eldest princess shook her head and said, "Someone will help him this time, I'm not needed."

Jing Ya looped the bracelet around her wrist and asked: "Your Highness, are you referring to Princess Qingyang and Xie Ruyi?"

The Eldest Princess nodded, and said: "Chen Chen helped the two of them before, and now it's only natural for the two of them to help Chen Chen in turn."

"I don't need to intervene in things that they can solve by themselves."

Jing Ya nodded and said, "That's fine too."

After talking about this matter, Princess Dachang asked Jing Ya, "Is there any news about Chen Ziling over there in Luling?"

Jing Ya handed the things in her hand to the eldest princess, and said, "Well, I have found some."

"Maybe this matter is really not as simple as it seems..."

The Eldest Princess took the things, flipped through them, and soon finished reading them all. After reading them, she looked up at Jing Ya and asked, "Is there any relationship between Su Wang's Mansion and Lanze Pavilion?"

Jing Ya nodded her head and said, "Yes, Jiang Chi found out this by accident."

"Your Highness, you know that the original Lanze Hall was managed by blind servants, but after Jiang Chi and the others went to Lanze Hall to test it out, those blind servants all left and disappeared."

"Jiang Chi has been investigating this matter, but it was not until the time before and after King Su's accident that he finally got a clue."

"Then he followed this clue and found out a little about the relationship between those blind servants and King Su's mansion."

After listening to what Jing Ya said, the Eldest Princess lowered her eyes to look at the things in her hands. After a moment of contemplation, she finally said: "Okay, let them continue to investigate."

"We must find out Yuan Qiuling's true identity."

Yuan Qiuling was Princess Su's name.

But judging from the current situation, the authenticity of this name probably still needs to be further explored.

Jing Ya nodded her head and said: "Okay, I will give instructions, Your Highness, don't worry."

……

Sure enough, as the eldest princess said, within two days, Princess Qingyang and Xie Ruyi entered the palace together to intercede for Chen Chen.

Of course, with only the two of them, the new emperor would never just agree.

So after the two of them, there are Duke An and King Rui.

Although King Shi Rui did not approve of the marriage between Princess Qingyang and Xie Ruyi at first, but now that it is done, he does not want to ruin his father-daughter relationship with Princess Qingyang.

In addition, King Rui went to persuade the new emperor to let Chen Chen go back to the southern border, and he would probably be able to form a good relationship with Zhennan Wangfu.

Therefore, King Rui didn't have any resistance to go to persuade the new emperor.

King Rui has gone, so Duke An's family naturally cannot be left behind.

The two families took turns to persuade the palace, but within a few days, the new emperor couldn't bear it, so he could only let Chen Chen go back to the south.

Chen Chen went back to the southern border, and Wei Ling also asked the little emperor to return to the southern border at this time.

Compared to Chen Chen, it was much easier for Wei Ling to go back.

The request had just been submitted the day before, and the new emperor approved Wei Ling's reply the next day, allowing her to go back to the southern border very happily.

After others know it, they don't think it's strange.

After all, Wei Ling and Chen Chen were married by the new emperor himself.

Now that Chen Chen was going back to the southern border, it was only natural for Wei Ling to want to go with him.

But after Jing Ya found out, she went to the palace to find Wei Ling.

But it's still the same result.

No one can stop Wei Ling from leaving.

Jing Ya looked at Wei Ling who was sitting under the pergola, and asked, "A Ling, do you really want to go back to the southern border with Prince Zhennan?"

Wei Ling raised his eyebrows and asked back: "Why, can't it?"

Jing Ya frowned and said, "A Ling, are you serious about Chen Chen..."

"Does it matter?" Wei Ling cut off Jing Ya's words, and said, "It's not just because of him that I went back to the southern border."

"In the current situation in the southern border, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion has been implicated, and I'm worried that my grandfather will also be involved... That's why I want to go back."

Jing Ya said: "If so, then I can rest assured."

Wei Ling looked at Jingya, and said curiously, "Why are you so worried? Why are you so concerned about my affairs?"

"You and I don't seem to be so familiar with each other, do we?"

Jing Ya cleared up her expression, and said lightly: "Yes, I'm acquainted with each other so much, Miss Wei, you're laughing at me."

Wei Ling twitched the corner of his mouth when he heard that, and said, "You said that yourself, I didn't say that."

Only then did Jing Ya put away the indifference she pretended, smiled slightly, and said: "Okay, since you have already made up your mind, I won't persuade you anymore."

"It's just that after you go back to the southern border, be careful and take care of everything."

Wei Ling agreed first, and then said, "Why do you say that like you've never seen each other again?"

Jing Ya thought about the next things, then smiled again, and said: "Maybe... But maybe we will see you again soon, not necessarily."

Wei Ling said, "It's as if you didn't say what you said."

"Forget it, you go back quickly, I still have to pack my things and I'm busy."

Jing Ya heard what Wei Ling said, so she didn't stay any longer, and after saying goodbye to her, she left the palace and went back to the Dachang Princess' mansion.

……

On October [-]th, the prince of Zhennan and the granddaughter of Marquis Wu'an left Beijing and returned to the south.

But just as the two of them were on their way back to the southern border, something happened suddenly in the northern land.

The same method as in the south, bypassing the defense line set up by General Zhang who was sent to the northern frontier, and went straight to the Yuancheng, Liucheng and Yingcheng.

This time Beiyi is very good at choosing places, and these three places are far away from Ningyuanhou's jurisdiction.

Therefore, even if Marquis Ning Yuan wanted to rush for reinforcements quickly, he still had to worry about diverting the tiger away from the mountain, so he could only have more energy than he wanted.

And these three cities are all extremely important three places in the frontier. Now that they are lost, if Beiyi has the heart, they can immediately continue to invade the Central Plains.

But Beiyi did not move at this time, only occupying the three cities, and then sent envoys to Beijing, saying that they wanted to negotiate peace with Dasheng.
