Where prosperity ends, flowers never end

The next day the weather was clear, and Ran Qianxi found Hong Fan's village after searching for a long time.

"Who is coming?"

"I'm looking for Hong Fan."

The guard took one look at her and took her in directly, where he found Hong Fan having dinner with his wife.

"Yeah, eating~"

Hong Fan's wife looked at her with a confused look on her face.

"you are?"

"Old friend."

Ran Qianxi walked over and gave him a bow and arrow.

"Try it, it'll be a thank you gift."

Hong Fan was stunned, and his wife saw a complicated expression in his eyes. Suddenly, he remembered the dusty letter in the small wooden box.

"You came here specially to give me a gift?"

"Yes, I personally gave it to you. You can show off this bow as much as you want. It was personally given to you by the Empress. I tell you, I can stand up straight."

Hong Fan smiled faintly, still as fond of talking nonsense as before.

"Thank you, Queen, I don't dare to use it anymore."

Ran Qianxi smiled faintly.

"Why are you so afraid? Let's have a competition later."

Hong Fan smiled.

"Okay, let's have a match."

Hong Fan's wife felt very uncomfortable watching this scene. Ran Qianxi noticed her expression and took out a box of perfume powder.

"Na~"

His wife was stunned and a little bit unbelieving.

"For... me?"

“Yeah, this is very useful.”

She took it in a daze, distracted for a moment.

"Don't think about those nonsense. Why would I give up my position as queen and compete with you for your husband?"

Hong Fan's wife was stunned for a moment again. She actually guessed his thoughts.

"I am too suspicious. Thank you, Queen."

Ran Qianxi smiled gently.

"I'm telling you, without you he would have been single all his life. You've done him a great favor."

Hong Fan smiled, still thinking about his first love in his heart.

Two days later, the phoenix carriage finally returned to the court. There were only Liu Xun, Zuo Qiuhe and Duanmu Yan on the boat. Ran Qianxi wanted to find something new and could only find Liu Xun, so the two of them indulged themselves for several days along the way.

Dachang and Xixing failed to reach an agreement and had already issued a declaration of war to the court. Baili Yong received a letter from Liu Xun when he was upset.

"The Queen will return to the court soon, and I will fulfill my mission."

During this month, Ran Qianxi disappeared and he had no mood to visit others. It was only a few times that he was forced by the Queen Mother to overthrow Shang Zijie.

"His Majesty."

He raised his head slowly and Shang Zijie walked in with sweet soup.

"It's getting late, drink some sweet soup and take a rest first."

Baili Yong smiled slightly.

"Okay, you go down."

When she was leaving, she saw the letter from Liu Xun on the table. In the face of such favor, all the affection was nonsense. She left the hall with a gloomy look in her eyes.

He has been worried about the war these days and has not entered the harem again. After much thought, he thinks that General Hao Biao, the guardian of the country, and General Ran Qiongxi, the new victorious general, are worthy of important positions.

The war had already begun, the imperial guards could not move rashly, and the fortresses in the fiefdoms could not be easily transferred. In order to prevent Tan Qianhuan from causing trouble, he assigned soldiers from Jizhou to guard the cities in various counties.

Jibei Palace

"Humph! Try this on me."

"My Lord, how do we go now?"

Tan Qianhuan's eyes darkened!

"Send someone to Luo Yu. Since he likes to play, let's make things more confusing."

Chief Tong bowed.

"I humble my duty and obey my orders."

Luo Yu is from Shu Kingdom like Nan Yue, but his ambition is half as big as Nan Yue's.

The next day, the Phoenix ship docked. Baili Yong had been waiting for a long time. He was in high spirits and looked down upon the world.

"Ayong~"

Ran Qianxi trotted over and was held in his arms in one quick move.

"Finally home."

Ran Qianxi was strangled by him and couldn't breathe. She struggled hard in his arms.

"Bones... bones are about to be crushed by you..."

Baili Yong let go of her anxiously, fearing that something might happen to her again.

"My fault, are you hurt?"

Ran Qianxi brushed away the loose hair on her forehead.

"I'm not that easily hurt."

"Hurry up and take a closer look... Are you really okay? It's all my fault. I always let you have accidents. How can I be a good husband?"

Ran Qianxi reached out and touched his forehead.

"Well, am I back for no reason?"

Baili Yong held her in his arms again.

"No matter where you go from now on, you are not allowed to leave me. I will follow you wherever you go."

"Accidents always happen. It's really okay now."

Baili Yong turned around and pulled her away. Liu Xun and the others bowed and left.

"When the war is over, I will prepare a grand ceremony for you to be crowned queen."

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry."

"But I'm in a hurry. If I go back, Xi'er will move to the Wang Palace, or I will move to the Yifeng Palace. You choose."

Ran Qianxi smiled and said that she didn't care about these things. Anyway, she had turned the danger into safety.

"Then I will move to the palace. It's no big deal for a king to live in the harem."

Slowly, the two of them walked in front of the dragon carriage.

"Okay, I'll help you move."

Ran Qianxi was silent for a moment.

"Well...I want to go home first..."

Baili Yong smiled and helped her onto the dragon carriage.

"Okay, I'll take you there now."

"okay."

When the two arrived at the Ran Mansion, Ran Qianxi went straight to Ran Yuelian's room, while Baili Yong waited outside sensibly.

"Father! Father!"

Hearing their daughter's voice, the couple hurried out.

"My dear daughter, you are finally back."

Xiahou Jin hugged her tightly, and this time it was not an act, he really scared her.

"Don't cry, mother. I'm fine."

"Don't cry, mother. Who kidnapped you?"

Ran Qianxi looked at Ran Yuelian and hesitated.

"She is...Zuoqiu Zaicheng's daughter..."

Ran Yuelian frowned, fearing that his daughter already knew his identity.

"No need to say anything else, just come back."

Ran Qianxi walked to Ran Yuelian and pulled up his wrist.

"She thought I was Zuo Qiuhe's daughter. It made me so angry. I'm obviously your daughter."

Ran Yuelian looked at her with a complicated expression, his eyes red and sad.

"actually…"

"What the hell, I am your child anyway, no matter what anyone says, I will take care of you in your old age!"

Ran Yuelian broke into laughter, tears streaming down his face uncontrollably.

"Daddy's good daughter."

"Don't worry, Baili Yong and I will take care of you and mother in our old age."

"You're saying something unruly again."

"What's wrong? He married me for nothing, and he doesn't even take care of my parents?"

Ran Yuelian patted her arm with relief.

"My daughter is skilled and courageous."

Ran Qianxi looked at the two of them with relief.

"Dad must love Mom very much."
