The queen loves me alone

Zhaolan Hall.

When it was time to light the lamps, Zhu Yan walked up and down the room.

Mu Jin walked in and saluted: "What is your Majesty doing?"

Zhu Yan said with a worried expression, "Ah Jin, am I getting fatter?"

Mu Jinzai looked around carefully, his face did look a little rounder, his chest seemed to have grown a bit bigger, and the whole thing looked more protruding and warped.

So she blushed and let out a "huh", lamenting and thinking, I will probably have those messy dreams again tonight.

Zhu Yan groaned, her expression frightened, and she walked faster and faster in the room, feeling anxious all over.

Mu Jin looked a little funny, walked over and took the man's hand: "Your Majesty is too thin, and a little fatter is also beautiful."

Zhu Yan curled her lips and looked at the person, "You coax me."

Mu Jin shook his head, "Really, I'm not lying to you."

Zhu Yan finally sat down on the side seat, and said, "I'm exhausted."

Mu Jin said: "The weather is getting cold, just eat more, Your Majesty, don't be harsh on yourself."

Zhu Yan snorted: "Anyway, I'm not as fat as Ah Jin."

Mu Jin was a little dumbfounded, it was unreasonable for a woman to go crazy.Thinking about it instead, isn't she also a woman.

Mu Jin walked around the Imperial Garden with the others, to eat and drink.

As she walked, Zhu Yan suddenly said, "Ah Jin, I have a clue about what happened to Ami earlier."

Mu Jin's heart skipped a beat: "Have you found it?"

Zhu Yan had a complicated expression for a moment, thought for a while and said, "Liu Ya is indeed dead, but he probably knew that he was not safe before he was alive, so he left a life-saving talisman in his hometown."

"What is it?" Mu Jin's voice was a little soft in the night.

"It's a secret letter, sent from Kyoto."

Mu Jin's heart trembled, "Who is it?"

Zhu Yan sighed and said: "The royal paper, the inscription is gone. I only told Liu Ya to put that thing in when it is repaired."

Mu Jin was suddenly in a bad mood. The one who knew the date of birth was someone who was close to Zhu Yan, but now it was confirmed that the other party was a member of the royal family, and the enemy was by his side. How could it not be shocking.

She stretched out her hand and shook Zhu Yan's slightly cold hand: "Your Majesty, don't worry, try comparing your handwriting when you have time."

Zhu Yan hummed, not knowing what she was thinking.

The two of them made a long detour and returned to Zhaolan Palace. The palace staff had already prepared face towels and water.Mu Jin looked at the sky outside, and was about to get up to leave, but was stopped by Zhu Yan, "Ah Jin stay with me for a while."

Zhu Yan had washed her face, no makeup was applied on her face, her face was fair and elegant, a bit less delicate and charming, and a bit more kind and gentle.

Mu Jin stared at the man for a while, then said softly: "Then lie down, Your Majesty, I will wait for His Majesty to sleep before leaving."

Zhu Yan got down, closed her eyes for a while, then opened them again to look at the person.

Mu Jin thought it was a little funny, "I didn't leave, Your Majesty." Zhu Yan was relieved, and held his hand.Close your eyes again.

Quietly listening to the person's shallow and even breathing, Mu Jin felt tenderness in his heart.Their Majesty even looked beautiful in sleep, with a circle of shadows sweeping under the eyelashes, quiet and soft.

Hearing that the person's breathing became even, Mu Jin pulled out her hand, thinking that she would leave the palace next month, and there would never be such a time again.She felt a little sore in her heart, she lowered her head and gently touched the man's face with her fingertips, then lowered her head and gently kissed the corner of his lips.

Warm and hot, very soft, just like in memory, just like in a dream.Stealing the fragrance successfully, Mu Jin felt a kind of peace and tranquility in his heart.Even though she was going to leave the palace next month, she was reluctant to let go, but she had this moment.She is satisfied.

After the kiss was over, Mu Jin quietly backed out.

The person on the bed opened his eyes, and there was a glimmer of light in his eyes.

On the second day, Mu Jin went to the Ministry of Rites in good spirits.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Shangguan in the yard.She stopped, still a little embarrassed, she hadn't seen him for a few days, and she didn't know how he was doing.

Mu Jin still stepped forward to say hello: "My lord, good morning."

Shangguan was talking to others, when he heard the words he raised his head and smiled, "Morning princess."

Just as Shangguan was about to continue to say something, a person came in suddenly, "My lord, it's time to go back to the Yamen." It was Li Peng again.

Mu Jin was a little angry. Shangguan, the little follower brought back from Ami, really didn't wink at all. Every time his adults were talking, he always came out to interrupt.

Shangguan also had a headache and said: "Li Peng, you go back first, I will stay for a while."

Li Peng's wheat-colored skin glowed golden in the autumn sun, silent and stubborn: "No, I'll wait for you."

He was stuck between the two of them like a log, and it was inconvenient for Shangguan to say anything now.

Li Peng suddenly went crazy for some reason, and was about to walk out while pulling his sleeves.Shangguan was almost dragged out.

"Don't drag me, I'll go by myself." Shangguan was a little embarrassed by being dragged.Li Peng walked forward like a bull.Directly drag people out of the gate of the Ministry of Rites.

Mu Jin couldn't laugh or cry when he saw it, this little follower had a bad temper and dared to treat his family like this.

Someone on the side laughed and said, "Where did Lord Shangguan recruit such a stubborn donkey?"

Another person said: "Master Amilu's men brought it back, but it has great strength, running back and forth."

"Looks like someone from Mobei."

"It's over there."

"No wonder it looks like that."

The court meeting the next day.

"Qizou Your Majesty, the border gate is here to report. Recently, we have been frequently harassed by Moxiong from the north on the northern border of Dajingmo. The Moxiong people often burn, kill and loot people at the border to make a living!"

Zeng Guang's voice resounded loudly in the hall, with a sonorous tone.All the officials whispered.

"This Moxiong has gone too far. He has already bowed his head and surrendered, but now he backs down and makes trouble again."

"Your Majesty, Mo Xiong is bullying people too much, why not send troops to frustrate their spirit!"

"Yeah, Your Majesty, if we don't fight, they will think that we have no one left!"

Mu Jin's ear hurts when he listened to it. Every time something happens at the border, those who advocate war are usually civil servants.Because they don't need to contribute at all, just talk about it.

The generals are more cautious on the contrary.

Zhu Yan said: "General Zeng, what do you think?"

Zeng Guangdao: "Your Majesty, the general thinks that more troops should be stationed at the border, just for defense, and don't start a war for now."

Immediately, a civil servant jumped out: "General Zeng's military achievements are great, of course this battle is not bad. But my people in Dajing are in dire straits, and I, Li Qi, can't sit idly by." Then he said to His Majesty: "Your Majesty, please Go to war!"

Li Da was born fat, full of flesh, he would bump up and down every two steps, and he couldn't even lift his pistol. How could such a person go to the battlefield.It's just forcing His Majesty to send troops, Mu Jin said coldly in his heart.

Zhu Yan said: "I am very relieved that Li Aiqing has this kind of thought. It's just that wars can't just be based on enthusiasm. Now it's the autumn harvest season. Fighting at the border will definitely affect the local people, waste people's money, and delay farming. unfavorable."

It was still Zhu Yan who was considerate.Mu Jindao: "Your Majesty has learned from you, and I second the proposal."

Situ Jun came out: "I have a word, Your Majesty can discuss with King Moxiong, there is always room for negotiation on everything."

Zhu Yan said: "Then follow Master Situ's words, send a letter from Feige."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

A few days later, Mo Xiong replied. "I am grateful to His Majesty Dajing for having such a heart for peace. Please go to Mobei and see you at the border."

When the letter was sent back, the ruling and opposition parties exploded.Those officials who originally advocated a peaceful solution were also very angry.What is summation?This King Moxiong is really deceiving people too much!

Zhu Yan was not angry, she smiled and said: "This letter was not written by King Moxiong, but by the current Crown Prince Moxiong. It is true that he is younger and more energetic. He wants to reconcile, so let's go see him."

Zhu Yan planned to negotiate with Mo Xiong, but the people in Dajing heard the rumors, and they didn't know how to spread them. They all rumored that His Majesty Heguang wanted to personally conquer.For a while, the whole country was boiling and a warm farewell.

Zhu Yan looked at the people in the team with some helplessness. She originally wanted to keep a low profile, but this trip involved a lot of things. After half a month of preparations, she couldn't hide it.

Situ Jun guarded the capital as usual, Jing Wei, and Zeng's father and son accompanied him. Because of his good conversation, Shangguan served as a diplomatic envoy several times and followed him, including his little followers.Mu Jin also cheekily followed.A group of people set off with the team in a mighty manner, which seemed to mean a personal conquest.

Mu Jin was sitting in the carriage, and when he lifted the curtain, he found a young man sitting on the tall horse next to him, looking very energetic.

Seeing Mu Jin lift the curtain, he greeted him very politely: "Princess, Your Majesty."

Zhu Yan smiled slightly, seeing that the person seemed to be thinking of something, and said with a playful expression: "Zeng Rao."

Zeng Rao Yile showed a row of sharp white teeth, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty still remembers me."

Zhu Yan hummed: "Do you still want to enter my harem?"

Zeng Rao waved his hands quickly, as if thinking of some painful memory, and said: "No, no, no blessing, I am afraid of being beaten by my father's whip now." He scratched the back of his head and said: "I think about it, I want to be with you." Like my father, he made great achievements and went to the battlefield."

Mu Jin chuckled, this kid finally took a path that suits him.It would be a pity not to lead soldiers with his muscular body.

Zeng Rao looked ahead and said, "Your Majesty, Princess, I'm going to the front."

Zhu Yan smiled and nodded.Zeng Rao rode his horse forward to keep pace with Zeng Guang in front.

"Father, it's because I didn't embarrass you." Zeng Rao's voice came from not far away.

Zeng Guang snorted, noncommittal.

"Really dad, I will definitely bring out the best soldiers in the future. Just like you."

……

Half a month later, at the Mobei border.

The place where the two countries meet is not crowded, and Zhu Yan didn't want everyone to disturb the people, so she ordered to set up camp nearby and set up a big tent.

The weather in Mobei is a bit different from that in the inland area. During the day, the temperature is extremely high and the tent is set up under the sun, sweating profusely, and at night it is as cold as the bones.

When night fell, everyone was exhausted and rested.

Mu Jin slept in the tent next to Zhu Yan, and the wind outside the tent was howling, which sounded a bit like howling wolves.

She curled up her feet tightly and tossed and turned left and right in the tent for a while, but still couldn't fall asleep.So he approved a cloak and walked out of the tent.

The wind was high and there was no moon, only a few wisps of dark clouds. Mu Jin opened the curtain and suddenly saw two figures not far away.

Mu Jin stayed where he was.

It was Shangguan and his little follower Li Peng.She hasn't had a chance to talk to Shangguan recently, as his little follower is too close to others, she has no chance to say anything.

At this moment, I saw Li Peng pulling people not far away and talking in a low voice.Shangguan's complexion was very bad, frowning, his face was as cold as ice.I don't know what I'm arguing with.

A gust of cold wind blew past, Mu Jin shivered, she didn't stay any longer, and slipped into the big tent next door to her.

Once inside, there is a warm feeling.

Mu Jin sniffled and said, "Your Majesty, it's so warm here."
