After her rebirth, she became the sweetheart of the sickly uncle.

"Just in time, I happened to be hungry." Xiao Guoliang seemed to be waiting for this sentence, and stepped into the princess's residence unceremoniously.

Su Qingcheng looked at Ye Tantai with a wry smile, patted his hand and said, "It's okay, just pretend he doesn't exist."

Looking at Xiao Guoliang who had slipped into the princess's residence, he could only accept it helplessly.

However, the three of them had eaten together for several days before, so it felt very comfortable to sit together again.

After eating and drinking, Xiao Guoliang had no intention of leaving. Ye Tantai reminded him: "Don't the general still have inspection duties? It's getting late. If you don't go, you will miss your rest."

"It's okay, let them do those things by themselves. I have never been to the Princess's Mansion before," Xiao Guoliang began to visit with a swagger, "This Princess's Mansion is really magnificent."

Naturally, Su Qingcheng would not miss this rare opportunity to talk.

"How is the training of the Guards lately? If you need any help, just ask."

It is well known that the two major factions in Beiyuan are at odds with each other. What she wants to do is to unite the four major families with the Xiao family, or simply conquer the Xiao family.

Otherwise, if this continues, there will be internal strife in Beiyuan over time. If other countries take the opportunity to cause chaos, Beiyuan's status will be threatened.

As a princess, she must be forward-looking.

"Hahaha, thank you for your concern, Princess. Everything is fine with the Imperial Guard." Xiao Guoliang said.

Su Qingcheng knew very little about the affairs of the army, so if she wanted to show her kindness, she could only start with food, clothing, housing and transportation: "It's cold. I'll have someone make some warm clothes for the guards someday."

"The princess doesn't know something. She wears too many clothes and it's hard to move." Xiao Guoliang refused in a different way.

How could he not understand what Su Qingcheng meant.

But as a general of the Imperial Guard, he could not simply accept Su Qingcheng's kindness.

No matter how they meet and give gifts, it is a matter between the two of them, but when it comes to the Imperial Guard, it becomes a matter of stance.

After hearing this, Su Qingcheng stopped mentioning this matter.

Ye Tantai said: "The Lantern Festival is approaching, why not let the Imperial Guards take a short vacation and go home to spend the Lantern Festival with their parents, wives and children."

"But during festivals, Diqiu's security inspections are twice as many as usual. Who will protect the safety of the people during the holidays?" Xiao Guoliang was a little shaken.

"This is not difficult. For example, you can divide the Imperial Guard into four equal parts. On the two days before and after the Lantern Festival, one part of the people will be released every day, but they will all need to patrol on the Lantern Festival. In this way Come, you will not only get a holiday, but also ensure your safety on the Lantern Festival." Ye Tantai said.

In a practical sense, these imperial guards did not have a holiday on the Lantern Festival. Instead, they need to step up patrols on that day.

But in the few days around the Lantern Festival, it is enough to take advantage of the Lantern Festival to give the soldiers time to rest.

"This is a good idea," Xiao Guoliang said with a smile on his face after hearing this, "but the number of Imperial Guards is not what you can imagine. Dividing it into four equal parts may not be enough. We can improve it more based on this plan. "

Xiao Guoliang looked at Ye Tantai with admiration: "King Yu Nan is young and promising. When are you planning to return to Nanye?"

"There is no rush." ​​Ye Tantai had no intention of further chatting with him about family matters. "I just hope that when General Xiao reports to the imperial guards, he will think that this is a benefit that the princess has planned for them."

"Don't worry. Of course I know the princess's wishes, but it depends on whether the queen agrees. I will ask you to apply for the Lantern Festival holiday for the Imperial Guard tomorrow."

Seeing that Xiao Guoliang agreed, Ye Tantai stopped talking. He felt bored and left after walking around.

Su Qingcheng breathed a sigh of relief after the general's carriage disappeared: "How did you come up with this method?"

Ye Tantai said: "You have never interacted with people in the army, so you don't know this is normal. For Beiyuan, they must have provided a lot for the Imperial Guard, but it is precisely because Beiyuan's country is peaceful and the people are safe. Often on those days when families should be reunited, soldiers have to be away from home."

"I have never thought of this angle." Su Qingcheng said.

She and Ye Tantai have obviously known each other for several years, but they always find a new side of him, which is a novel feeling.

"You will gradually get in touch with them in the future." Ye Tantai said.

"However, it seems that the Lantern Festival is organized by me." Su Qingcheng suddenly thought.

"When the time comes, I will ask the shadow guards to assist you secretly. Although there are not many people, they have already figured out Diqiu in these days, so don't worry." Ye Tantai said warmly.

Su Qingcheng nodded. She went to take a bath first, while Ye Tantai dealt with some Nanye official documents.

He looked at the wooden box carved with a phoenix on the desk and opened it. Inside was the blood jade that represented Su Qingcheng's identity.

The jade seal is not big, and it is not difficult to see the intention of the person who carved it.

Ye Tantai closed the box and looked down at the letter from Huo Yan. There was no doubt that the first few pages were condemning his irresponsible behavior of pursuing his wife.

He turned over it indifferently. Gu Huoyan had said these words thousands of times.

The last page is the important content.

The letter said that Emperor Nanye was already unconscious and that he had to use medicine to hang his life. The ministers were angry and the country could not be left without a master for a day, and they all asked him to come back as soon as possible.

Fortunately, Fu Siyan was relatively stable and he didn't know how to stabilize the ministers. Now the situation in Nanye has stabilized.

However, Dong Ling sent spies to Nanye again and again to inquire. I am afraid that they have already known about Ye Tantai's absence in Nanye, and I wonder if they will take the opportunity to cause trouble.

Seeing this, Ye Tantai's heart tightened.

Su Qingcheng changed her clothes and came out. What she saw was Ye Tantai's frown: "What's wrong?"

Ye Tantai subconsciously put away the letter and said, "It's okay. Since you have obtained the jade seal, you should go to court tomorrow."

Su Qingcheng saw that he was a little flustered. Although he had doubts in his heart, he still did not ask: "Well, Wu Ya, the official uniform, has been placed there."

"Beiyuan Court, I can't go, but I have something to tell you." Ye Tantai said slowly.

"it is good."

The next day.

Before the sun came out, Su Qingcheng was called by Wu Ya to dress up and change clothes.

Today is her first time going to court, so no one can take advantage of her.

Ye Tantai could have slept a little longer, but he was worried about Su Qingcheng and got up early to take her to the palace gate.

"I'll wait for you outside the palace." Ye Tantai said softly.

"Don't worry, I remember everything you said." Su Qingcheng said.

She entered the palace under the watch of Ye Tantai.

It was not the first time that Su Qingcheng walked up the stairs of the main hall, but it was the first time that she was with so many ministers, so she felt a little nervous.

Looking back, she could vaguely see Ye Tantai's figure outside the palace gate, and she felt a little more at ease.
