The White-haired Queen

"Haha, it's really interesting." Wen Lanyue said with a smile, "But this name is quite special and easy to remember. It seems that this trip to the Northern Cang Kingdom will be full of fun."

Gu Changfeng also laughed, "With these two here, I believe you will have a lot of fun on this trip."

The two walked side by side along the path, chatting all the way, and unknowingly arrived at the door of the study. Gu Changfeng gently pushed open the door, stepped into the room, took out a thick stack of files from the bookshelf, and handed it to Wen Lanyue carefully.

Wen Lanyue moved to the desk and sat down, reading the materials with full concentration. At this moment, a ray of orange afterglow happened to pass through the window and fell on her, as if she was covered with a layer of golden gauze. She was bathed in this warm light, and she looked even more holy and beautiful.

Gu Changfeng sat quietly by the side, his eyes always on Wen Lanyue. He stared at her expression as she read attentively, her bright eyes flashing from time to time, her long eyelashes trembling slightly like butterfly wings. Against the backdrop of the setting sun, her fair and delicate skin was even more crystal clear, like a finely carved porcelain, exuding a charming luster. She was like an exquisite porcelain doll, making people feel pity and love.

Gu Changfeng was immersed in this beautiful picture. He felt as if he was in a dreamlike world, and everything around him became so beautiful and charming.

The sunlight shines through the window onto the desk, illuminating the ancient books and pens, ink, paper and inkstone; the breeze blows gently, bringing a hint of fresh air; the birds outside the window sing happily, as if cheering for this quiet and beautiful moment.

Just when Gu Changfeng was intoxicated, a slight knock on the door suddenly came, breaking the tranquility. The sound was crisp and rhythmic, like a beautiful melody, gently touching his heartstrings.

He slowly raised his head and looked towards the door of the study, feeling a little impatient.

He stood up reluctantly and walked towards the door with steady steps. When he reached out and grasped the door handle, he was about to teach the uninvited guest outside a lesson, but he didn't say anything yet.

The guard at the door reported, "Your Majesty, Jing Li and Yan Yiwu want to see you."

"Ah? Didn't you say tomorrow? They're here so soon. Please invite them in." Gu Changfeng said.

After a while, Jing Li and Yan Yiwu walked into the study. When they saw Wen Lanyue, they both showed happy expressions.

"Greetings, Your Majesty, and the Queen Mother." The two of them bowed.

"No need to be so polite." Wen Lanyue said with a smile, "I will rely on you a lot on this mission to the Northern Cang Kingdom."

"Your Majesty, you are too polite. It is our honor to serve the country." Jing Li said.

"Yes, Queen Mother, we will definitely do our best." Yan Yiwu also echoed.

Wen Lanyue nodded. "I feel much more relieved with you here. Regarding the matter of the uranium mine, I still need you to investigate more carefully."

"Please rest assured, Queen Mother. We will be careful and not miss any clues." Jing Li said.

"Very good." Wen Lanyue said with satisfaction, "Then I'll leave it to you."

Afterwards, they discussed some details and then went to prepare for tomorrow's trip.

Wen Lanyue returned to the palace and found that the little emperor had been waiting for her in Shengde Palace for a long time. Wen Lanyue said, "Your Majesty, why are you in my palace?"

The young emperor said, "Sister Yue'er, I'm sending you the people who will accompany you on your mission to the Kingdom of Beicang." After saying that, he clapped his hands, and in the blink of an eye, ten well-trained people appeared in front of Wen Lanyue.

The little emperor said, "These ten people are all talents that I carefully selected this afternoon. They are excellent in both skills and professional scientific knowledge."

Wen Lanyue said: "Thank you, Your Majesty. Your Majesty is thoughtful."

The little emperor came in front of the ten people and said, "Stand at attention, at ease, very good, start introducing yourselves."

The first person immediately stood at attention, and then introduced himself in a loud voice: "My name is Yan Luoyu, and I am good at exploration."

"I am Zhang Kuo, an expert in mechanical engineering."

"I am Li Hao, an expert in medicine."

……

Each person briefly introduced their expertise. After listening, Wen Lanyue secretly admired the little emperor's intentions. These people's skills covered all aspects and would undoubtedly become her right-hand men on this mission.

"Okay, since you have all joined, you are mine. I hope you can be loyal and help me complete this mission." Wen Lanyue said.

"We swear to be loyal to the Queen Mother until death!" the ten people shouted in unison.

"Okay, you guys go down and rest first, and follow me tomorrow morning." Wen Lanyue ordered.

After the ten people left, the little emperor said, "Sister Yue'er, the journey to Northern Cang Country is long, you must pay attention to your safety. If you encounter any danger, you must send a message to me in time."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will take good care of myself." Wen Lanyue said with a smile.

The little emperor nodded, with a hint of reluctance in his eyes.

The little emperor said solemnly, "Sister Yue'er, I have already cancelled tomorrow's morning court session. Tomorrow morning, I will lead all the civil and military officials to personally see you off at the city gate."

Wen Lanyue was filled with gratitude and responded softly, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."

The little emperor smiled and continued, "It's a long journey and there will be a lot of hard work along the way. Especially tomorrow we have to get up early to travel, so we will inevitably be tired. Therefore, Sister Yue'er, it is better to rest early and conserve your energy so that you can set off in high spirits tomorrow."

Wen Lanyue nodded and said, "I will obey the imperial edict. Your Majesty, please go to bed early and take care of yourself."

The little emperor waved his hand and said with a smile, "Okay! Let's meet again tomorrow." After that, he turned and left, leaving Wen Lanyue standing alone, her heart full of emotion.

Fortunately, the young emperor has truly grown up. This time, he did not rely on Prime Minister Zhang or officials from the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Works to arrange affairs for him.

Instead, he personally took charge, carefully selected the right people, and planned and organized everything himself. Moreover, every decision he made was so wise and precise, without any flaws! This independent spirit and outstanding ability can't help but amaze people.

In Wen Lanyue's opinion, she felt that the little emperor had gradually shown the potential to become a great monarch. In the days to come, perhaps she could expect to see more wise decisions and outstanding performances from him!

The next morning, the sun slowly rose from the east, and the golden sunlight spread over every corner of the earth. Wen Lanyue was dressed in men's clothes, with a white robe as white as snow and fluttering sleeves, standing outside the city gate like an immortal descending to the world.
