The next day, Yu Heng entered the palace to pay his respects to Emperor Changping before the Great Court Meeting was over.

Ji Xinxue's skillful 'running away' sent Qingyun to go to the imperial hospital, and summoned the imperial physicians and imperial physicians who were on duty to Yuhe Palace to diagnose Yu Heng's pulse.

Seeing that all the doctors affirmed the prescription formulated by Zhu Taiji for Yu Heng, Ji Xinxue dispelled the guess that Yu Heng's continuous coughing after two months of injury was due to being delayed by quack doctors.

When the two of them received the news that the Great Court Meeting was over, the sun was already in the west.

Since Emperor Changping's birthday passed, there were only two focal points in the court.

At the birthday banquet of Emperor Changping, His Highness the Fifth Highness 'Great Transformation'.

Those who support Ji Jingyu regard Ji Xinxue as the biggest threat, and they are happy to catch Ji Xinxue's tricks.

Ambitious people not only see that Ji Xinxue is a rare commodity to live in, but also feel that compared to Ji Jingyu, Ji Xinxue's character is too tough.They quietly helped the supporters of Ji Jingyu to suppress Ji Xinxue, and at the same time showed their favor to Ji Xinxue, trying to play the trick of adding sweet dates to the stick.

Whenever Ji Xinxue didn't show up at the Great Court Meeting or the Small Court Meeting, he would leave the court half a quarter of an hour earlier than usual.

The other focus is the great victory in northern Xinjiang.

Hand-to-hand combat does not necessarily start a war, nor does victory or defeat immediately end a war.

Counting the battlefield, pacifying the people, and rewarding heroes...Maximizing the benefits brought by victory is also a crucial link in war.

Because Mohe had returned to the territory of the Yu Dynasty, Abu Hanbing immediately escorted the captives of the Mohe royal family back to Chang'an.

When Yu Heng entered the city yesterday, he did not deliberately hide his whereabouts. When the courtiers received the news, they would inevitably bring up the matter of rewarding the military heroes in the pass at the court meeting, so today's court meeting took a particularly long time.

Emperor Changping personally helped up Yu Heng who was saluting, carefully looked at the sickness between Yu Heng's brows and his slightly thin shoulders, and sighed, "You have suffered."

"Defending the frontiers and defending the country is the duty of ministers." Yu Heng straightened his back and met Changping Emperor's firm gaze.

Ji Xinxue, who became the background board, moved her heart slightly, and lowered her eyelashes restrainedly.

I haven't seen him in two years, and he is not the only one who changed from women's clothing to men's clothing.

Before going to Northern Xinjiang, Yu Heng was the most dignified person of his generation.

Even standing beside Ji Jingyu, he is not inferior.

Like a sword crafted from the purest ore.The identity of the county king is the sharp blade, and the wealth of Princess An's mansion is the gem inlaid on the hilt.The occasional flashes of light on the hilt and blade can make Xiaoxiao, who has seen the sharpness from a distance, shy away.

Yu Heng, who had opened a sword in the northern border, removed the original majesty, and added a bit of chill that he had never had before.

In the past, the sharp edge of the sword could only deter people with ulterior motives, but now even if it is restrained in the scabbard inlaid with gold and jade, there is no need to worry about being peeped.

Ji Xinxue suddenly regretted that when she first got the "treasure map" from the Yu family, she didn't go back to Chang'an immediately to ask Emperor Changping to allow him and Yu Heng to go to Guannei Road to hunt for treasure.

Emperor Changping nodded in relief, and asked about Yu Heng's injury.

Most of the letters that Jin Wuwei sent back to Chang'an were Yu Heng's personal letters. He only knew that Yu Heng had to stop on the way back to Chang'an because of repeated injuries, but he didn't know why Yu Heng suffered repeated injuries.

Yu Heng blushed, and said in a low voice, "I heard that brother found the number one Turkic general when he was counting the prisoners. I'm so happy..."

Emperor Changping smiled, and gently blamed Yu Heng for being unable to hold his breath.

He has always been generous and kind to his close juniors, and he feels sorry for Yu Heng's injury.

Seeing Yu Heng bowing his head respectfully and honestly to listen to the training, the pity in Emperor Changping's eyes became more and more intense, he suddenly changed the subject, and said with a smile, "Little Wu learned that you have a cough, so he almost became a guest of Liang. Not only in Tranquility Palace ..."

Ji Xinxue raised her head in disbelief, the restraint in her eyes turned into embarrassment, "Aye!"

Not only did he almost go to the private treasury of Emperor Changping to be a thief, but he also blatantly robbed the Xinyang County Prince's Mansion, Liu Guogong's Mansion and South Korean Duke's Mansion.

Although the final result was "the guest of honor had a good time", but watching Emperor Changping jokingly tell Yu Heng about the process... Maybe because of being a "thief" guilty, Ji Xinxue only has more and more serious "" shame'.

Surprise appeared in Emperor Changping's eyes, he couldn't remember the last time he saw Ji Xinxue so annoyed.

Yu Heng also turned to look at Ji Xinxue, in addition to the undisguised curiosity, there was also a barely visible joy hidden in his eyes.

Ji Xinxue coughed lightly, and said nonchalantly, "My ninth brother remembered twelve words yesterday. I promise him that I will play with him for half an hour today."

He saluted Emperor Changping perfunctorily, turned around and left.

Ji Xinxue wants Yu Heng to know that he cares about Yu Heng.He didn't want to face himself who seemed to be an 'idiot', so he had to choose a tactical retreat.

Emperor Changping smiled sullenly for a while at his desk, and when he looked up again, Ji Xinxue was completely out of sight.

"Others are bigger and more stable, only Xiao Wu..." He shook his head, although he said reproachful words, his eyes were full of connivance.

Yu Heng raised the corners of his mouth cooperatively, trying his best to restrain the thought of urging Emperor Changping.

Fortunately, his forbearance was not let down.

Emperor Changping regained his composure, picked up what he had said just now, and told Yu Heng the interesting story about Ji Xinxue's search for medicinal herbs a few days ago.

On the way back to Chang'an, when he heard that Ji Xinxue had frequent contacts with Liu Guogong's mansion and South Korea's mansion, Yu Heng felt so jealous.

At this moment, when he suddenly learned that Ji Xinxue went to Liu Guogong's residence and South Korean government's residence to ask for medicinal materials because he was worried about his health, Yu Heng's heart jumped with joy.

Emperor Changping saw that Yu Heng had a serious face, and he didn't smile as he imagined. He only thought that Yu Heng was moved by Ji Xinxue's behavior.Feeling that the friendship of youth is always extraordinarily sincere, I didn't find it strange at all, so I turned to ask about Ji Jingyu who had not yet arrived in Chang'an.

"In the past two years, Uncle Wang has always reminded me not to delay Jingyu and your marriage because of the war in northern Xinjiang." Emperor Changping personally poured tea for Yu Heng, and asked as if casually, "Did you meet Yu Heng in northern Xinjiang?" Admired person?"

Yu Heng lowered his eyes to cover the hesitation in his eyes, and replied without hesitation, "No."

He did not.

As for Ji Jingyu...

Yu Heng didn't want to say more, and there was nothing he could do.

Emperor Changping was too lazy to play riddles with Yu Heng, and asked straight to the point, "What's the matter with Ji Jingyu and Xiao Ning?"

Yu Heng was silent for a while, and replied tactfully, "Brother is upright, Captain Xiao strictly abides by etiquette, and the two of them will never do anything to embarrass the emperor."

Emperor Changping sneered, "What's wrong with me?"

Ji Jingyu is a prince, if he can have a prince and concubine and two children, how can he worry that there is no place for Xiao Ning in the palace?

He wanted to see, Ji Jingyu hid Xiao Ning like a treasure, refused to mention a single word in the letters with anyone, but took her with him when he returned to Chang'an, in order to settle Xiao Ning.

Yu Heng noticed that Emperor Changping seemed to be annoyed, and immediately guessed that Ji Jingyu had never told Changan about the existence of Xiao Ning, so he explained in a low voice for Ji Jingyu, "Brother and Captain Xiao are in love, maybe they want to go first Ask the emperor for instructions, and then confirm each other's intentions, so..."

Emperor Changping raised his hand to stop what Yu Heng hadn't finished speaking, his tone was neither happy nor angry, "We'll talk about it when he returns to Chang'an."

He didn't hate Ji Jingyu's indecisiveness because he was tempted by Ji Jingyu's love for an orphan who had no father or mother in northern Xinjiang.

Xiao Ning is an orphan, and also the queen of the general family.

Both father and brother died in battle, and when mother was alive, she was also a well-known female general.

If Ji Jingyu had to be her, Emperor Changping would not insist on breaking them up.

Ji Jingyu was wrong to hesitate!

Not only the Guan Nei Army knew that he had a deep love for Xiao Ning, but even the well-informed courtiers in Chang'an had heard about it.

Knowing that Ji Jingyu brought Xiao Ning back to Chang'an, a small number of courtiers directly turned to Ji Xinxue, and some of the courtiers were secretly collecting the faults of Xiao Ning's father and brother who had died in battle and his mother who died of illness, and tried to prevent Xiao Ning from becoming Princess Ling in advance.

What was originally only a three-point difficulty, became a nine-point difficulty because of Ji Jingyu's frequent interruptions.

Under such circumstances, only when Ji Jingyu only intends to have a dewy relationship with Xiao Ning in northern Xinjiang can Emperor Changping feel relieved.

However, as a father, Emperor Changping knew the nature of the eldest son.

If Ji Jingyu returned to Chang'an alone, it is likely that Xiao Ning did not want his son.

Before asking Yu Heng, Emperor Changping's most optimistic idea about this matter was that Ji Jingyu entrusted Yu Heng, who returned to Chang'an first, to tell Emperor Changping about his relationship with Xiao Ning.

Unfortunately, Ji Jingyu did not.

Emperor Changping picked up the teacup in the way of drinking.

The eldest son who has been in northern Xinjiang for more than two years is still hopeless, and can only count on the second son who is getting more and more escaped.

He said to Yu Heng, "Five days later, there will be a flower viewing banquet in Qinghe County Prince's Mansion, you and Xiao Wu go to join in the fun."

"Ninth girl from Dingbeihou's mansion, sixth girl from Situ's mansion, Korean mansion..." Emperor Changping took out a neatly folded letter paper from his sleeve pocket and put it in front of Yu Heng, and said bluntly, "As long as you, Xiao Wu If you didn't choose the same person as Ji Cheng, I will marry you immediately."

After Ji Xinxue managed to put the energetic Ninth Prince to sleep, she immediately went back to Yuhe Palace to find Yu Heng.

"Your Highness, Princess Xuanwei is waiting for you. There are urgent documents from eight hundred miles away." Qingyun who was waiting at the palace gate immediately greeted him.

"Huh?" Ji Xinxue's footsteps suddenly slowed down, "Feng Lang is still in Fengxiang Palace?"

After getting an affirmative answer, the faint smile on Ji Xinxue's mouth completely dropped.

Babaili Express comes from Hedong Road. Although it is related to the new tax, it is not a thorny issue that has never arisen.

It took only half an hour for Ji Xinxue to list several ways to solve the problem, and recommended three household officials who could serve as imperial envoys.

He asked the female officer who was dedicated to serving the pen and ink to copy the content of the draft into a notebook, strode towards Princess Xuanwei who was sitting in a daze on the grand teacher's chair, and asked with concern, "Sister, are you in a bad mood?"

Princess Xuanwei pursed her lips weakly, she regarded Ji Xinxue as her own sister and younger brother from the bottom of her heart, and she did not hide anything from Ji Xinxue.

"Li Niang is pregnant."

Ji Xinxue was stunned.

Last year, when Princess Xuanwei accepted the No.18 concubine, he gave a set of enamel Ruyi hairpins as a congratulatory gift. The name of the concubine seems to be...Zhou Li?

Thinking of this, the farce of Emperor Changping's birthday appeared subconsciously in his mind.As if hearing the hysterical roar of the eunuch again, the fairy secretly left a prescription that can reverse the yin and yang of the unborn fetus.

Could it be that some liars were inspired by this and joined forces with Princess Xuanwei's concubine to deliberately deceive Princess Xuanwei under the pretext of 'having children of the same sex'?

Ji Xinxue resisted the desire to look at Princess Xuanwei's waist, and sat at the low table next to Princess Xuanwei with a dazed face, and asked cautiously, "Whose child?"

The melancholy in Princess Xuanwei's eyes grew stronger, "Cheng Lang."

"Ah..." Ji Xinxue didn't know whether she was relieved or disappointed, it was not Mo Yao's child.

This title is most likely another concubine of Princess Xuanwei.

Ji Xinxue really didn't know how to persuade Princess Xuanwei about this kind of double green hat.

Princess Xuanwei put his hands on his forehead, and murmured, "Li Niang and Cheng Lang are both good-looking, and their children must be good-looking too."

Ok?

Ji Xinxue immediately grasped the important point.

Princess Xuanwei is not sad or annoyed because of the double green hat, but wants to raise a double green hat child.

"You..." Ji Xinxue thought of the possible concerns that Princess Xuanwei might have, and hinted, "If you have a son in the future, I will consider him a adopted son."

When Princess Xuanwei heard the words, the hesitation and distress on her face immediately dissipated, and she raised a bright smile.

She said to Ji Xinxue seriously, "I don't want to suffer from pregnancy and childbirth, so let me be your child's godmother."

When the late emperor was still there, Princess Xuanwei was worried about Xiangshang's head all day long, just wanted to let herself go while she was still chic, and never considered the issue of getting married and having children.

It wasn't until Emperor Changping's suggestion that he tried his best to keep Concubine Zhong Shu that Princess Xuanwei was in the mood to think about the future.

However, she has become accustomed to a life where she only cares about her life, and it is really difficult for her to yearn for love like a normal girl. As for the child... After witnessing the process of the woman giving birth, Princess Xuanwei said that it is impossible in this life.

So when she learned that Xinna's concubine was pregnant, Princess Xuanwei cried softly at the beautiful concubine who was raining with pear blossoms before she could get angry.

It would be nice to have a pretty little girl.

Even if it doesn't look like a beautiful concubine or a bookish concubine, it's still cute.

Ji Xinxue understood that Princess Xuanwei just wanted to raise a beautiful child painlessly, not because she was afraid of the future and did not dare to have a child when she wanted to raise a child. He nodded thoughtfully and suggested, "You can follow the Like, to help poor couples."

If Princess Xuanwei's love for children is only short-lived.

As the love for children decreases, it is very likely that they will pay more and more attention to double green hats. This is not a good thing for Princess Xuanwei and innocent children.

Besides, Princess Xuanwei has always paid attention to concubines, and many people have been brought into the mansion over the years, and there are also many people who have given enough gold and silver to let them go.

Under such circumstances, the parents of the child still gave Princess Xuanwei double green hats, and there would definitely not be "misunderstandings" or "innocent".

It's better to send the two of them away quickly while Princess Xuanwei is not very angry.

Princess Xuanwei hesitated for a while, and the hesitation on his face completely turned into calm.

She decided to listen to Ji Xinxue.

Because Ji Xinxue is smarter than her.

After solving one concern, the dullness between Princess Xuanwei's brows dropped sharply, and Ji Xinxue was even troubled by another concern, she whispered, "Do you have any gauze?"

Ji Xinxue shook her head and asked curiously, "What do you want Yingsha to do?"

Firefly gauze is a rare fabric passed from the Western Regions to the Yu Dynasty. It is as thin as a cicada's wing, and when it comes into contact with a heat source in a completely dark night, it emits a faint light like a firefly.

Princess Xuanwei patted Ji Xinxue on the forearm, "Of course it's making clothes!"

"It's so thin, how do you make the clothes?" Ji Xinxue looked surprised, "If it's worn over a small jacket, it's not as good as golden silkworm gauze or Liuying gauze."

and many more……

Ji Xinxue suddenly thought of another possibility

As thin as a cicada's wings, isn't there almost no difference between wearing it and not wearing it?

When exposed to a 'heat source' in the dark, it emits a weak fluorescence.

Could it be that the clothes Princess Xuanwei mentioned were... pajamas?

Princess Xuanwei covered her mouth and smiled, got up and put it close to Ji Xinxue's ear, "There will definitely be Yingsha in Princess Anguo's mansion, you can send me some later, half a horse is not too little, ten horses is not too much."

After speaking, Princess Xuanwei turned around and left without waiting for Ji Xinxue, who was sluggishly standing in place, to leave.

After a long time, Ji Xinxue, who had a particularly rich imagination, raised her hand and placed it on her belly, which was always full of soft flesh.

Although he is slack in martial arts, he is fair and fair. If there is fluorescence, it shouldn't be much worse than Yu Heng, who has at least six-pack abs?

Because of Princess Xuanwei's interruption, Ji Xinxue had to take a bath in the clear sky and broad daylight.

, a troubling age.

When the chime clock in the corner made clear and regular knocking sounds, Ji Xinxue walked out of the bathtub expressionlessly.

He had to admit that missing someone with memory and letters was different from getting along day and night.

In the past two years, he has never been distracted by other things at this time.

However, just now, his mind was full of the carriage that could no longer accommodate him and Yu Heng lying side by side, the scratches that were almost disappearing behind the ears, the thin but powerful shoulders and neck...

This not only made Ji Xinxue feel uneasy thoughts, but also almost inexplicable fear.

Ji Xinxue lay on the rocking chair with her eyes closed, waiting for the palace man to dry his long hair, and the intertwined thoughts in her mind gradually became clear.

He can't indulge in it alone, Yu Heng has to accompany him.

In any way.

At least he must see a different reaction from Yu Heng, so that he can continue to firmly believe that he is not wrong.

Yu Heng didn't dare to make any unnecessary movements or words in the gaze that seemed to be able to see through all the disguises.He silently picked up the letter paper in front of him, carefully followed the creases to restore it to its original state, and solemnly put it in his sleeve pocket.

"I'll tell Ah Xue and Ji Cheng."

Emperor Changping nodded in satisfaction.

Seeing that Yu Heng was coughing frequently and his face was gradually pale, Emperor Changping dismissed the idea of ​​asking about the war in northern Xinjiang, and asked Yu Heng to recover from his illness, and asked Jing Zhe to send Yu Heng to Yuhe Palace.

Yu Heng stood up and saluted, and presented the envelope half a finger thick in his sleeve pocket to Emperor Changping.

This is the consumption of troops, food...weapons and horses recorded every time he went through battles of various scales during his two years in northern Xinjiang.

Jing Zhe was worried about Yu Heng's body, so she deliberately took very small steps.

It only took half a quarter of an hour, and it took more than double the time.

When he could see the glazed tiles of Yuhe Palace from afar, Yu Heng stopped and said to Jing Zhe, "I will walk the rest of the way by myself."

Seeing this, Qing Zhu who was following Yu Heng's side with low eyebrows pleasing to the eye, smiled and said to Jingzhe, "Don't worry, even if the king faints, the little one can make a meat pad for the king in time, so that the king won't be hurt A little oily skin."

"You talk nonsense." Jing Zhe's eyes swept over the strong Zizhu, and he reprimanded mercilessly, "If you speak rudely in the palace, slap your mouth twice, and you can do it yourself."

Qing Zhu immediately raised his hand and slapped himself loudly, but the smile on his face remained unchanged, "Thank you eunuch for teaching."

Jingzhe's expression softened a little, and he untied the purse at his waist and handed it to Qingzhu, "This is the peace talisman that the Empress Dowager bestowed on me, I'll give you some light."

When Qingzhu saw this, the almost invisible grievance in the depths of her eyes immediately turned into surprise.

Originally, he didn't dare to hate Jing Zhe because of these two slaps, but the peace talisman that Jing Zhe gave him made him feel grateful.

If it weren't for the king of the county, even if he was slapped a hundred times, he still wouldn't be able to touch the peace talisman that the queen mother bestowed on the palace supervisor!

With such an episode, Jing Zhe couldn't insist on watching Yu Heng enter the Jade Palace with his own eyes.

He saluted Yu Heng respectfully, and turned around first holding the golden unicorn under Yu Heng's calm eyes.

Yu Heng, who was like a sculpture, didn't move until Jing Zhe's back could no longer be seen.

He slowly took out the neatly folded letter paper from his sleeve pocket, tore it until it was only half the size of a raindrop, and then poured it all into Qingzhu's sleeve pocket.

Useless things, why keep them as an eyesore?

"Prince of the county!" Qing Yun, who was guarding the palace gate, greeted him proactively, "Princess Huai'an moved things out of the palace today, not only transferred all the carriages from the carriage and horse workshop, but also sent someone to borrow the princess's carriage, what is your name today? Stay in the palace, or return home?"

If Yu Heng wanted to return home, Yuhe Palace would at least leave behind Ji Xinxue's special carriage.

Yu Heng glanced at the setting sun that was about to be swallowed by the horizon, "There is no need to keep the car."

How could he be willing to leave after finally meeting Ah Xue.

Qingyun got the permission and immediately went to arrange the carriage.

Yu Heng walked towards the main hall familiarly.

Disappointment appeared in his eyes when he found no one in the house.

I don't know how many batches of screens and various furnishings have been changed in the past two years, but they are still placed in the positions he is most familiar with.

Yu Heng hesitated for a while, but finally obeyed the desire deep in his heart and walked towards the screen that blocked Babu's bed.

Seeing the person sitting in front of the bronze mirror unexpectedly, Yu Heng's eyes were full of trance.

"Ash?"

The long-lost princess was wearing a thin green dress, with only a jade-carved jasmine bud on her head, and pearl tassels along the temples and beside her fair ears. For a moment, it was hard to tell whose light was more radiant.

Ji Xinxue's bland and luxurious attire was surprisingly harmonious.

Even if Ji Xinxue didn't deliberately trim the sword eyebrows into the shape of willow leaves as in previous years, but only erased the sharpest part, it would not make people feel the horror of facing the big man in women's clothing.

Yu Heng couldn't restrain the thought of going to Ji Xinxue's side at all.

In the sixth year of Changping, when he and Ji Xinxue parted in Fengtian, Ji Xinxue was as she is now, wearing a long grass-green dress, with only a jasmine hairpin on her head.

Ji Xinxue looked at the person who was walking towards him, with a slight smile on her lips, "Do you like to see me in women's clothing?"

When he went out of the city to meet Yu Heng yesterday, although the longing for the reunion after a long absence was sincere, it was far from being able to provoke his heartstrings more than the involuntary approach at this time.

Yu Heng looked away from Ji Xinxue as if nothing had happened, and subconsciously stared at Ji Xinxue through the bronze mirror through the posture of looking at the dowry, suddenly felt that Yuhe Palace was more stuffy than Fengxiang Palace.

"I see that you wear women's clothes more often, and you will be more..." He said absent-mindedly, "Kindly."
