This palace change ended very quickly, and by the time the officials arrived at the palace, everything was settled and they were cleaning up the mess.

The crown prince was dead, the emperor didn't say anything, he just asked for a lavish burial.

"The criminal minister Xiao Congyun pays his respects to His Majesty."

The emperor looked at Xiao Congyun, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart, "Let's get back on your feet, thanks to Aiqing for suppressing the rebel party this time, what crime is there, I must reward you well, and let you be reinstated."

There was no mention of the jailbreak.

Afterwards, the emperor handed over all the remaining matters to Huangfu Lian, and returned to his bedroom.

Probably because of the repeated shocks today, the emperor was originally in poor health, but now it was even worse. He coughed non-stop at night, and he couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

The imperial doctor came to treat him, but in the end they all said that he was unable to recover, and asked the emperor to cultivate well in the days to come, and not to be too overworked.

The emperor's health was getting worse and worse, and he was really unable to manage the government. No one in the court was in charge of the overall situation. The three princes were ordered to deal with everything in an orderly manner.

Half a month later, the emperor finally passed away, and Huang Fulian officially ascended the throne.

In the first year of Jianhe, the new emperor came to the throne, the court was rectified, new laws were promulgated, and it took on a new look.

The style of early summer evenings is soft, and the air is filled with the fragrance of soil, flowers and birds, which makes people feel refreshed.

As usual, Xiao Congyun came into Shu Qingqian's room while it was dark.

Shu Qingqian leaned against the window and saw Xiao Congyun, "General Xiao hasn't changed his habit of coming in through the window yet?"

Xiao Congyun rubbed his nose, "I can't help it, don't come in through the window, I'm afraid Master Shangshu will beat me again if he sees it."

Ever since she snatched Shu Qingqian from the sedan chair that day, everyone in the Shu family was confused. Later, she and Shu Qingqian fell in love with each other. She was so angry that she was half dead, but Mrs. Sun didn't say anything.

Shu's father sticks to stereotypes and is relatively traditional, so he can't accept it for a while. .

Shu Qingqian suddenly said, "Let's go to Mobei."

Xiao Congyun was stunned for a moment, thinking he heard it wrong, "Qingqian, what did you say?"

Shu Qingqian said seriously, "Let's go to Mobei together, you know the emperor won't be at ease."

Xiao Congyun didn't expect that Shu Qingqian would take the initiative to bring it up, she had planned it a long time ago, but she was always worried about Shu Qingqian's body, "Mobei is cold, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it."

But Shu Qingqian didn't care, "I'm fine, but I'm a bit cold, just put on a few more clothes, can't you support me alone as a great general?"

Xiao Congyun took Shu Qingqian's hand, feeling a little moved, and hugged him into his arms.

At this moment, Lian'er came in with a washbasin, and seeing the two hugging each other, she was already familiar with it.

Put the washbasin on the table, snort coldly, turn around and leave.

Only then did Xiao Congyun quickly let go of Shu Qingqian.

Seeing that Xiao Congyun was a little embarrassed, Shu Qingqian couldn't help but smiled, then hugged Xiao Congyun's waist and kissed him directly.

Xiao Congyun's eyes widened, but he didn't dare to move, letting Shu Qingqian's lips stick to his own, his whole face turned red.

Seeing the other party's innocent appearance, Shu Qingqian couldn't help curling the corners of her mouth, and seeing Xiao Congyun's whole body was stiff, she pushed the other party down on the table lightly.

After the kiss was over, Xiao Congyun finally fell from the clouds to the ground, her eyes were shining, as if she had opened the door to a new world. Although she was not young, her previous life was only practicing martial arts and fighting, walking on the edge of life and death every day. It's the first time I've had time to learn about these romances.

Shu Qingqian let go of the other party, calmly said, "It's late at night, why don't you go back?"

Xiao Congyun licked his lips, although he was still thinking about it, he finally left.

On this day, Xiao Congyun entered the palace to have an audience.

"Your Majesty, I have a request."

Huangfu Lian still had a smile on his face, and he didn't become arrogant because he became the emperor, "I love you, but it's okay to say so."

"Wei Chen hopes to return to the border and continue to serve the country."

Huangfu Lian was a little surprised, "The capital is prosperous, the border is bitterly cold, and Aiqing is a woman after all, why bother to go back, why not stay in the capital."

"I have made up my mind, and I hope His Majesty will fulfill it."

Huangfu Lian stared at Xiao Congyun for a while, and finally said: "Okay."

After Xiao Congyun left, he was the only one left in the empty hall, so Huangfu Lian smiled, "Sure enough, he is a smart person."

After finishing speaking, he continued to bow his head and approve the memorial.

The next morning Huangfu Lian went to the Empress Dowager's bedroom to pay her respects.

The former concubine Xian, who is now the empress dowager, asked Huangfu Lian to sit down, and then said: "Son, did Xiao Congyun enter the palace yesterday and say he wants to go back to the border?"

Huangfu Lian nodded, "Mother, do you know?"

The queen mother frowned, "How can you agree, Xiao Congyun is a woman after all, it's not good for you to let her go back to the bitter cold place like Mobei."

Huangfu Lian smiled, and suddenly asked: "Mother, what do you think of Xiao Congyun?"

The queen mother said slowly: "The Ai family knows that although Xiao Congyun is a woman, she is simply a military genius. She is invincible and her contribution is indispensable, but she is a woman after all."

Huangfu Lian nodded in agreement, "It should be said that it's a good thing that she is a woman, and she is not interested in my dragon chair. She is a double-edged sword. She can attack the enemy. With her, Da Qi will not perish, but if If you retreat, you can also destroy the country."

The queen mother was a little puzzled, "Emperor, what do you mean?"

Huangfulian continued: "Do you still remember the previous palace change? In fact, it was all planned by her alone. She was so resourceful and everything was under control. Although she helped me, in fact, I still feel a little scared when I think about it late at night. , I really feel uneasy sleeping with her in the capital."

The Queen Mother was shocked and speechless.

Huangfu Lian smiled again, "She is a smart person, that's why she proposed to leave the capital now."

……

That night, Shu Qingqian was about to fall asleep, but unexpectedly, Lian'er came in with her bag.

Shu Qingqian was surprised, "Lian'er, what are you doing?"

Lian'er snorted again, "Miss, stop pretending, do you think I didn't find the baggage you hid under the bed?"

Shu Qing smiled lightly, "So you know."

"Do you think I don't know that you plan to go to Mobei with General Xiao? Hmph, don't think about leaving me this time, I will follow you every step of the way these few days."

Shu Qingqian sighed, this little girl has become more and more intelligent recently, it's not easy to lie.

Shu Qingqian had no choice but to say, "Okay, I'll bring you with me when the time comes, and we'll go together."

Lian'er just laughed, "Everyone knows that General Xiao is going back to the border. Even the eldest lady guessed that you will follow her to Mobei, so she asked me to bring you some more clothes."

Thinking of her mother, Shu Qingqian felt a little moved. Mrs. Sun has always treated her very well.

But in the end Shu Qingqian still said: "But the border is not as prosperous as the capital, so be careful that you won't be able to stand crying."

"Don't worry, I won't." Lian'er was a little unconvinced, thinking that you, a delicate lady, still despise me.

Three days later, after Xiao Congyun finished handling the affairs in Beijing, he returned to Mobei with the Xiao family army.

The carriage slowly moved north.

Shu Qingqian sat in the carriage and stared at Xiao Congyun, while Lian'er was eating melon seeds.

Xiao Congyun couldn't help it, "Oh, this carriage is going too slowly, let's go out to get some air."

After finishing speaking, she whistled to call Xue Lihong, then got on the horse, carried Shu Qingqian onto the horse at the same time, and the two rode away.

Lian'er spat out the melon seed shell and snorted again.
