It is still bitingly cold in the snowy New Year, and the dense fog in the morning is still there. People coming and going in the West City are chatting loudly, adding to the excitement.

All of a sudden, a group of soldiers riding tall horses rushed through the downtown area, and the common people protected their belongings to avoid it.

"Who in the imperial city dares to offend like this?"

"I'm afraid this gentleman is a newcomer to the city. Just now, that group of soldiers is the personal soldiers commanded by the imperial guards. Who would dare to stop them in front of the emperor with his life?"

"Is the commander of the imperial guards really so capable?"

"The current crown prince's uncle is the commander of the imperial guards. How can the royal relatives and relatives not be majestic?"

"So that's why."

When people were coming and going from West Market, the Princess Mansion was shrouded in white fog, and people from Sanliang Palace were cleaning the courtyard.

Jiang Changdai woke up early in the dormitory. Although the officials had just finished their vacation on the eighth day of the lunar new year, the habit they had developed over the years could no longer fall asleep.

The person under the thin silk quilt curled up into a big ball, with her head resting on her neck and her breathing was steady. Jiang Changdai reached out and lifted a corner of the quilt and carefully lifted her head with her palm and placed it next to the soft pillow before she stood up.

Mostly because the quilt was too warm, the outside of the quilt was a little cold and tight.

When the three thousand blue silks were hanging down, they slowly covered their slender figure, dressed neatly in the thin plain clothes and long clothes, and Jiang Changdai sat quietly in front of the dressing table.

If it was an ordinary day, most of the palace people would wash and dress up, because Liu Meier was not sleepy, so they didn't call the palace people into the room to wait on her.

The face inside the bronze mirror was clearly identifiable, and Jiang Changdai paused for a while in combing her hair, only to realize that there were a few slightly more obvious marks on her neck.

The cheeks couldn't help but slightly flushed, the thin lips were slightly pressed together, and the hands touched lightly, and then sighed softly.

Fortunately, I don't have to go out these few days, otherwise it would be...

When it was bright outside, Liu Meier woke up because she was too hungry.

The warm quilt is so comfortable in winter.

Liu Mei'er struggled for a while before stretching out her white arms and picking up the tidied clothes at the side.

When she was dressed properly, Liu Meier went to the inner room to wash up and came out, but she didn't see Sister Dai in the inner hall, so she went to the outer hall to look for someone.

I saw Sister Dai making tea at the table in the hall with the open window, and Sister Dai, who was dressed in a long dress with silver and white begonia pattern, looked like a fairy, sitting beside her with a slim but flexible figure.

Although the wind and snow had stopped outside the window, there was still a lot of wind and snow piled up on the branches of the trees, and even the outside of the window sill was covered with a thin layer of crystal clear ice and snow.

The hot halo from the boiling tea rises into the air, and soon the halo is dispersed. Such a peaceful picture makes people feel refreshed.

"Are you hungry?" Jiang Changdai said while pouring tea.

"Yeah." Liu Meier regained her composure, stepped closer and sat on one side.

Jiang Changdai put the tea in front of Liu Meier and said: "Today, the palace servants have prepared tea, you can try it."

Liu Meier took a sip of her tea, looked at the various snacks on the table, picked up the crispy snacks on the outside with her chopsticks, took a small bite, only to find that the inside was stuffed with vegetarian vegetables and praised: "It smells so good. "

"Eat as much as you like."

"Sister Dai, won't you eat?"

Seeing her bulging cheeks in satisfaction, Jiang Changdai couldn't help laughing and said: "I have a timetable for three meals, and it's almost noon now, so naturally I have already eaten."

"So I slept so late." Liu Meier blushed suddenly, wondering if Sister Dai thought she was a slacker.

"After breakfast later, do you have any friends to go to the banquet?" Jiang Changdai found that Liu Meier was alone most of the time, as if she didn't even have many ordinary friends.

Liu Meier shook her head and replied, "No."

In the past, I would accompany Liu's father to visit guests every year, but now I have very little contact with Liu's father, and I already went to visit on the first day of the new year.

And for the next few days, Liu Meier wanted to spend more time with Sister Dai.

After all, the two of them are always busy with each other throughout the year, and Liu Meier can't even have a quiet chat with Sister Dai over tea.

"Is sister Dai having a banquet?" Liu Meier chewed on the shortbread, and suddenly remembered that in the past years, sister Dai was always busy, but this year it was unusually quiet.

"Originally there were, but since I promised to treat myself as a New Year's gift to Meier, naturally I have to save my time for Meier." Seeing that she prefers minced meat, Jiang Changdai also made a small steamed bun for her.

The corners of Liu Meier's lips could not help but rise, but she still said reservedly: "If Sister Dai has an appointment, you don't have to worry about me, you can go to the banquet."

Jiang Changdai raised her eyebrows and looked at her who clearly wanted to accompany her, but acted so well-behaved, reached out and held a handkerchief to wipe the debris from the corners of her mouth and teased: "Wouldn't Meier cry secretly?"

"No." Liu Meier looked at Sister Dai's smiling face, feeling a little shy.

I will not be so stingy.

"Okay, but now I just want to be with Meier, and the next banquet has already been shirked." Jiang Changdai actually didn't mention that because the emperor intends to promote the two brothers of the Wu family, she wanted to temporarily avoid the limelight.

The two brothers of the Wu family will not easily let the officials of the gentry go, so naturally it is estimated that the court will not be too peaceful in the next period of time.

And he is the emperor's thorn in the heart, if there is a slight mistake, the charge of forming a party for personal gain should be handed over to the court.

"Will Sister Dai find it boring to stay with me?" Liu Meier only eats and drinks on weekdays and reads books and practice calligraphy. If the weather is better, she will take the big black horse for a walk or practice archery.

"No." Jiang Changdai slowed down her response.

In fact, most of the daily hobbies of the two are very similar.

After breakfast, Jiang Changdai chose a book of war and sat beside the couch, and Liu Meier also planned to choose a book to read when she saw this.

There are so many books in the bedroom of the Princess Mansion that even Liu Meier was surprised, among them are not only huge in number but also complete in variety, and it is said that there are many rare books.

When she saw the biographical history books of the Five Kingdoms, Liu Meier curiously held the book and returned to the soft bed.

Coincidentally, the already destroyed Qing Kingdom is in the first episode.

It was rumored that Qing Kingdom and Jiang Kingdom used to be two clan kingdoms, but after hundreds of years of disagreement, they separated each other.

Back then when the Qing Kingdom took in the remnants of King Qin, they still had other intentions of annexing them.

It's a pity that the hundreds of years of Qing Kingdom's foundation was finally destroyed in less than a few years.

When Liu Meier was feeling so emotional, she suddenly thought of Jiang Guo today, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Even though the Jiang Kingdom is becoming more and more prosperous because of Sister Dai's assisted government, the kingdom will decline after it becomes strong.

"Oh." Liu Meier looked at it and sighed inadvertently.

Seeing that she was so bored and puzzled, Jiang Changdai asked, "What's wrong?"

Liu Meier pursed her lips and responded, "Why does a kingdom turn to decline once it has experienced prosperity?"

"Sunrise and sunset, flowers bloom and fall, everything is like this." Jiang Changdai pinched her chubby face and said.

"But kingdoms rise and fall are not like these."

"What's the difference?"

In her previous life, Liu Meier had seen countless people fleeing and falling, and in this life, she also saw a mountain of corpses in the battle of Shacheng.

"The sun will rise again when it sets, and the flowers will bloom again when they wither, but the people who died due to the decline of the kingdom will never be resurrected." Although Liu Meier still doesn't know how she came back to life until now.

But Liu Meier knew how terrifying death was, so she didn't want people to experience turmoil.

Jiang Changdai reached out and took her into her arms to comfort her, "Maybe this is fate."

In the previous life, Jiang Changdai trusted the Jiang royal family so much, but was betrayed and killed, and finally watched the Jiang country fall with her own eyes.

But in this life, Jiang Changdai still tried her best to bring Jianguo from decline to prosperity.

In fact, this is no different from Liu Meier's expectation.

"Meier, don't be afraid." When Jiang Changdai was reborn for the first time, she thought that she would not hesitate to risk her own life.

Now everything has changed, Meier still has a great time, if she loses this time, she will be even worse than her previous life.

Jiang Changdai, who has never been fearless, is afraid that she will return to the situation in her previous life.

That Liu Meier covered in blood shouldn't be her fate.

"I'm not afraid, it's just a little sad." Liu Meier rested her head on Sister Dai's arms, feeling that she was too weak.

The situation in the court was complicated and changeable, Liu Meier didn't understand why the court refused to send troops to donate food in the First World War in Shacheng but insisted on peace, and the result almost caused more casualties.

If General Yue hadn't resisted to the death, and Sister Dai sent a black armored army to rescue, Jiang Guo would have lost that battle.

And it was precisely because of the defeat in Shacheng that Qing's national power was weakened.

If there is no sister Dai, the fate of Jiang Guo and Qing Guo may have changed each other, and the current scene of Jiang Guo's prosperity will no longer exist.

If she took a wrong step at that time, the consequences would be unimaginable, and now thinking about it, Liu Meier feels terrified.

"It's human nature to be happy, angry, sad, and happy. It's normal for you to be sad." Jiang Changdai held Liu Meier's face with her hands, lowered her head and kissed the corners of her tight lips, "It's just that you and I rarely get together on vacation, Meier smiled Is one good?"

Maybe what Meier said is right, the decline and fall of a dynasty is like a flower that blooms and fades.

But God gave me a chance to start again, so maybe this is also the arrangement in fate.

Liu Meier looked at Sister Dai who came to kiss her with wide eyes, and grinned with reddish earlobes.

Well, wouldn't that make me laugh silly?

Jiang Changdai couldn't help smiling, pinched her face with her fingertips and sighed: "Meier is so cute when she smiles."

Liu Mei'er whose entire face was pinched, her ears became even more red.

I always feel that sister Dai loves to knead her face more than Chang's.

Just when Liu Meier was about to distance herself, she glanced at the imprint on sister Dai's collar, and said happily, "This is a success!"

Jiang Changdai, who hadn't reacted at all, followed her line of sight, put her hand on her neck, and realized what she said.

If Liu Meier's complexion is milky white, then Jiang Changdai is a bit more inclined towards Leng Xue, and the traces of red plums are especially clear.

"You won't be allowed to kiss here next time." Jiang Changdai said solemnly with slightly warm cheeks.

"Why not?" Liu Mei'er hadn't figured it out earlier, and was still very confused.

Jiang Changdai pinched her earlobe with her thin lips and pressed her lips tightly, she could only say bluntly: "If you let outsiders see it, what would you say?"

According to her thin-skinned temperament, she will probably be at a loss.

Liu Meier was stunned for a moment before she understood what Sister Dai said, her whole body turned red and hot and responded in a low voice, "It seems to be the same."

Everyone will definitely have a lot of criticism, and everyone will know that they are against Sister Dai...

The more she thought about it, the more shy Liu Meier didn't dare to look at the red dot marks again, she was so ashamed that she wanted to get under the covers and hide again.

During winter and spring, the days are short and the nights are long, and the holidays are over in the blink of an eye.

In February, the spring breeze was slightly cold, and the government affairs of the court were running day by day. The emperor asked the six-year-old prince to attend the court because of his serious illness.

Although the officials of the gentry family had grievances, they did not dare to speak out, but the two brothers of the Wu family were already taking the opportunity to seize power and liquidate.

The continuous spring rain made the streets of the capital city dry, and officials of the gentry were charged with collusion and rebellion.

The first to bear the brunt of this was Song Yun, the father of the eldest prince's mother, Concubine Song Xian, who was once Minister of Rites.

Song Yun is a master of Confucian scholars, his calligraphy in regular script is unrivaled in the world, and he is a gentleman of the Jiang Dynasty. He was dismissed from his official position because he did not want to join forces with Qin Wang's party. Since then, he has been honored as Song Gong by Confucian scholars.

As soon as this crime came out, the government and the public were shocked, and many officials of the gentry in the court pleaded for Song Gong.

Taifu Li Ping, who has always been an old fox, personally wrote documents to ask the eldest princess for help.

Jiang Changdai suppressed Li Taifu's document and did not respond, because the two brothers of the Wu family did not only retaliate against the noble officials, but more importantly, they dealt with the eldest prince Jiang Hui.

Once Song Yun's crimes are confirmed, the eldest prince's mother, the Song family, will probably be implicated. Even if the eldest prince does not participate, her mother's crimes will also arouse the emperor's distrust and suspicion of the eldest prince.

In the battle for the throne, not to mention brothers and sisters, even father and son have many lives fighting each other.

The emperor's condition had worsened, and now he might be easily provoked by the two brothers of the martial arts family.

It seems that the two brothers of the Wu family really tried their best to make the eighth prince secure the position of prince.

In the current situation, once Jiang Changdai gets involved, the emperor will probably really listen to the slander and execute the eldest prince, mother and son.

So Jiang Changdai can't make a move now, but can only wait and see.

The spring rain was still falling non-stop, and the officials of the court were in fear, worrying every day that they would be arrested and thrown into prison for treason.

The officials of the Ministry of Industry were also panic-stricken. Liu Meier did not go to court, so she could only rely on the daily discussions with her colleagues to get some news.

"I heard that Duke Song has been in prison for some time. Those two Master Wu are probably thinking of ways to suppress dissidents. No one knows what the emperor is thinking now."

"Well, I think it's better to spend money and eliminate disasters. Why don't you send some money to those two adults to get Song Gong out."

"You think the Song family didn't think of a way, but the money delivered to the door was lost, and the servant was caught and killed and thrown away."

"The Wu family is really shameless!"

Liu Meier walked through the corridor holding the drawing and listened to a few words, her heart sank slightly.

When I was studying in Taixue, I was fortunate enough to listen to the lectures given by this old gentleman.

It's just a matter in court, Sister Dai never mentions it in front of her, and Liu Meier doesn't like to ask too much.

He couldn't help thinking that Chang's elder brother, Chang Chun, also went to prison for a period of time, and when he came out again, his body collapsed.

That Song Gong is already an old man in his eighties, I'm afraid he won't last long.

The officials had dinner together in the afternoon, and Chang was afraid that Liu Meier would not be used to eating, so she specially sent her servant Xiaofeng to deliver the meal every day.

But today Xiaofeng didn't come for a long time, Liu Meier came out hungry to find someone.

The rain kept falling, and before Liu Meier opened her umbrella to go down the steps, suddenly a group of soldiers crossed the street and stopped in front of the Ministry of Industry's mansion.

The soldiers were dressed in yellow-brown official robes, gauze hats on their heads, and large knives around their waists. They were tall and fierce-eyed. They were the imperial guards of the capital.

"Step aside!"

Liu Meier stood aside with her umbrella closed, and many officials gave way one after another. The Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce bowed his knees with a smile on his face, "I don't know what you can do, Master Wu?"

"I have received news that there are treacherous ministers in the Ministry of Industry who have come to arrest them. It is better for Mr. Ji not to ask more questions."

As soon as the words came out, the imperial guards rushed into the interior of the Ministry of Industry, a large number of drawings and objects were overturned and thrown to the ground, and a dozen officials were arrested and taken away.

Many of them were officials who discussed the affairs of Duke Song.

"My lord, I am wronged!"

"How could we be traitors and traitors!"

The leader Wu Di slapped the official's cheek, probably because of martial arts training, the force of this palm turned the official's cheek red and swollen and vomited blood.

"If you dare to yell like a girl again, I will kill you with a knife, believe it or not?"

Immediately there was no sound in the room, except for the sound of rainwater. Liu Meier looked at the official unwilling to be humiliated and raised her hands to resist.

Wu Di kicked the official to the ground, and when he drew his knife and was about to stab him, Liu Meier said impatiently, "No!"

"What are you, how dare you stop me from working!" Wu Di turned around to look at this handsome and somewhat feminine official, and spat out with contempt, "Come here, arrest him!"

Master Shang Shuji of the Ministry of Industry hurriedly said: "Lord Wu can't believe it, this is the son-in-law of the eldest princess."

"It turns out that this is Jiang Guo's first concubine son-in-law." Wu Di approached with a smirk, and approached Liu Mei'er's neck with his hand and knife.

Although Liu Meier was afraid, she held her palms tightly and straightened her body without hiding.

The sharp blade stopped just a few millimeters away from the side of the neck, and a few thin hairs fell quietly.

"Boy, today I will spare you for the sake of the eldest princess. You better remember to keep your head back next time, otherwise you will not be so lucky!" Although Wu Di is crazy, he also knows that the eldest princess cannot be offended.

This group of Confucian scholars can fight and kill, even if they kill a few, it doesn't matter.

The eldest princess is different, she has a black armor army in her hand, and I heard that she has a close relationship with General Yue, her elder brother Wu Feng specially told Wu Di not to offend the army and the eldest princess.

"Come here, take them away!" Wu Di withdrew his knife, turned around and led the imperial guards away from the Ministry of Industry.

Liu Mei'er, whose whole body was icy cold, realized that her palms were covered with fine sweat.

Master Shangshuji of the Ministry of Industry hurried forward to remind: "Master Liu, don't be impulsive, the imperial guards kill people without blinking an eye."

Unexpectedly, the person who looks silent on weekdays would have such courage, and the minister of the Ministry of Industry couldn't help but look at this white and tender son-in-law with admiration.

Liu Meier pursed her lips and responded: "Well, Master Ji said that Wansheng was reckless."

In fact, Liu Meier was very scared.

During the following day, the officials of the Ministry of Industry did not discuss Song Gong's matter again.

The reason why Xiaofeng didn't come to deliver the food that day was because the imperial guards ran amok on the road and didn't protect the food box, so it was late.

In the evening Liu Meier went back to the consort's mansion for dinner, seeing that she was not in the right mood, Mrs. Chang asked, "What's the matter today?"

"Mother, it's fine." Liu Mei'er buried her head in the rice with her rice bowl in her hand, and didn't say anything more.

After taking a bath at night, she turned off the lights early and went to sleep, but when there was thunder and lightning in the middle of the night, Liu Meier still did not fall asleep.

Now the brothers of the Wu family have almost exactly the same evil deeds as the King Qin and the Yuan family back then.

Liu Meier was helpless, except that she knew how to read a little, nothing else at all.

If I were to die by the knife today, I am afraid that others would just laugh at me and say that I am overestimated.

No wonder Wu Di despised him so much, if it wasn't for Sister Dai, he might be decapitated now.

When the thunder and lightning flashed, Jiang Changdai hadn't rested yet. When she learned that the secret guard had reported what happened to the Ministry of Industry, Jiang Changdai actually wanted to wait for Meier to come and talk to her.

But there was still no movement until the second day, Jiang Changdai guessed that maybe Meier didn't want herself to know.

The battle in the court has never been easier than on the battlefield. Since Liu Meier has become an official of the court, some things must be experienced by her.

In the spring of early March, most of the dozen or so officials in the Ministry of Industry were released.

Seeing that they were all depressed and unwilling to mention what happened, Liu Meier naturally couldn't ask.

He only heard a few words about the money, and guessed that maybe he was released from prison after paying the money.

Those imperial guards arrested people indiscriminately, clearly wanting to collect money.

After a period of time like this, Chang found that her child became more and more dull, and wanted to ask but couldn't ask, so she had to ask the person from the Princess Mansion to ask.

That day happened to be a public holiday, and it was also Liu Meier's birthday. Because I didn't want to waste money, I only held a family banquet for three people.

Liu Meier, who used to be nervous, is much quieter now.

Mrs. Chang glanced at the eldest princess who had been invited, and said pretending to be tired: "Mother, I am happy today, I drank a little too much, so go back to bed first."

"Mother, go slowly."

The maid Chang Yu held back her smile and helped the old lady back to the hospital.

Jiang Changdai looked at the person in the festive scarlet robe and said, "Meier, why are you silent?"

"What does Sister Dai want to hear?" Liu Meier knew that the court was in danger, so naturally she didn't want to waste Sister Dai's time.

Originally, I didn't want to bother sister Dai to the banquet, but I didn't expect Chang to take the initiative to invite sister Dai.

"I want to hear why Meier is unhappy." Jiang Changdai knew that her temperament was sometimes tense, and this was probably the only unlovable thing about her.

"No, I'm not unhappy." Liu Meier responded with a slight blush after drinking some wine.

Jiang Changdai pursed her thin lips, put her hand on her cheek, traced her brows with her fingertips and said, "But why does Meier look unhappy?"

Liu Meier touched her face with her hand and responded, "Am I acting very unhappy?"

"Yeah." Jiang Changdai nodded, pressing her fingertips on the corners of her lips and moving upwards slightly, "Mei'er usually smiles brightly when she sees me, but today she looks serious like an old gentleman."

"I'm very happy that Sister Dai came to accompany me to celebrate my birthday." Liu Meier reached out and held Sister Dai's hand resting on the side of her face, and slightly raised the corners of her mouth to smile, "I'm really happy."

"Laughing like this makes me feel worse than crying." Jiang Changdai put her arms around her, tilted her head and kissed her wine-smelling lips, "Meier, you might as well resign."

This might make her life easier and happier.

Liu Meier opened her eyes wide in surprise and asked, "Why?"

"Because you are too busy all day, you don't have time to come to me during this time." Jiang Changdai found another excuse to explain.

"Then let me spend more time with Sister Dai these few days." Liu Meier knew how busy she was when she saw Sister Dai in her previous life, so naturally she always thought that she could help Sister Dai in this life.

"You don't want to resign?" Jiang Changdai was a little surprised.

After all, Liu Meier really doesn't seem to be greedy for fame and fortune.

And the officialdom is not suitable for her.

Although Liu Mei'er was slow, she was not totally indifferent. Sister Cai Dai hadn't told the truth just now.

Is it because I recklessly ruined sister Dai that day?

It was because I was too useless as a son-in-law, so I made sister Dai a joke.
