Rebirth is not a dream.

Su Yue gently opened her dowry box, which was filled with various items. She carefully searched every corner, hoping to find something that was considered important. However, after searching for a while, she did not find any items that could catch her attention.

Although these things are very valuable, they don't seem to be what the emperor is looking for. Su Yue couldn't help but start thinking, what exactly does the emperor want? Her understanding of Princess Ming Zhao is too limited, and she can't guess what the emperor is thinking.

Apart from the hairpin on her head, she couldn't think of anything else special about it. Her mother had specifically told her to keep it well, but she didn't tell her the reason or its special meaning. Su Yue stroked the exquisite patterns on the hairpin, her heart full of doubts and curiosity.

Su Yue lay quietly on the bed, her eyes involuntarily falling on Qin Yi who was leaning on the couch and concentrating on reading. He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, a handsome face, and exuded a unique temperament that made people fall in love with him. Especially his bright eyes flashed with intelligence and determination, as if he could see through everything.

At this moment, Su Yue felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. She found that the relationship between her and Qin Yi seemed to have undergone some subtle changes. In the past, they were just strangers, but now they have a tacit understanding and closeness. This change made Su Yue feel surprised and relieved.

In this strange time and space, Su Yue has always felt lonely and helpless, as if the whole world is incompatible with her. However, since meeting Qin Yi, she has gradually found support in her heart. Now, she is no longer walking alone, but has someone to accompany her. This kind of companionship makes her mood more stable, as if she has found a sense of belonging.

Looking at the dark night outside the window, Su Yue's original fear of the darkness was also reduced a lot. Because she knew that Qin Yi's presence was like a beacon that illuminated her way forward. Even if the future was full of unknowns and challenges, she firmly believed that she could face it bravely because he was by her side to support and encourage her.

Su Yue looked at Qin Yi with a puzzled look and asked, "How much do you know about Princess Ming Zhao?"

Qin Yi slowly put down the book in his hand and cast his eyes on Su Yue. After thinking for a while, he replied: "When I was born, Princess Ming Zhao had already married to Bei Yan. Therefore, I don't know much about her. However, there is one special thing, that is, the emperor seems reluctant to mention Princess Ming Zhao. Because of this, everyone has kept it a secret for many years, and very few people will take the initiative to talk about this matter. However, now the fourth prince has declared so loudly that you are the daughter of Princess Ming Zhao, which is really puzzling. I can't help but wonder, is it that the emperor mentioned Princess Ming Zhao again, or is the emperor interested in retrieving Princess Ming Zhao's military token?"

Hearing this, Su Yue was shocked and asked, "Princess Mingzhao actually holds a military token?"

Qin Yi nodded in affirmation, and then said: "It should be so. This military token was personally bestowed by the late emperor to Princess Mingzhao. If it weren't for Princess Mingzhao's defense of Bingzhou, Da'an would not be like this now." Su Yue became more and more curious and continued to ask: "Why did the late emperor bestow the military token to the princess? Now that the princess has returned, why hasn't the military token been taken back?"

Qin Yi: "No, the current garrison commander of Bingzhou cannot be mobilized without the Emperor's military token."

Su Yue couldn't help but feel a little puzzled when she heard this. Although she didn't know much about state affairs, she knew that in a normal feudal dynasty, the emperor was supreme and should have absolute power. But now the emperor couldn't mobilize his own army, which was really puzzling.

Su Yue frowned, thought for a moment and asked, "Why is this? Is there something special about the garrison commander of Bingzhou? Or is there another hidden story?"

Qin Yi sighed and said helplessly: "Alas, the name of the garrison commander of Bingzhou is Bei Wuhou. He is a companion who has been through life and death with Princess Mingzhao and has made great achievements in battle. He only listens to Princess Mingzhao. With the new emperor ascending the throne, it will be difficult to take back the princess's military token for a while. Moreover, if the emperor forcibly seizes power now, it may cause a mutiny!"

After hearing this, Su Yue was even more worried. She knew that the stability of a country was inseparable from a strong military force. If the emperor couldn't even control his own army, how could he maintain the security and stability of the country? She couldn't help but ask again: "Has the emperor ever thought of other ways? We can't keep going like this."

Qin Yi shook his head and said, "The emperor has naturally thought of a solution, but has not yet found a suitable method. On the one hand, he needs to take Beiwu Hou into consideration, and on the other hand, he also needs to consider the situation of the entire country. If it is not handled properly, it may cause a greater crisis."

Su Yue remained silent. She realized that things were much more complicated than she had imagined. She originally thought that the royal family had supreme power and could easily decide everything, but she did not expect that there would be so many constraints and helplessness in reality. It seems that there is still a long way to go to truly understand the rules of this world. Moreover, Su Yue's situation is really a bit bad. The key is what if she can't give the emperor what he wants?

The next morning, before daybreak, Aunt Tao came in a hurry and reported to Su Yue: "Miss, your dowry has been packed." Upon hearing this news, Su Yue originally planned to send the dowry to the Fourth Prince's residence, but she did not expect that the Fourth Prince had not yet left the palace to build his own residence. In this case, should the dowry be sent directly to the gate of the palace?

Just as Su Yue was lost in thought, Aunt Tao suggested: "The Third Prince has been conferred a title and built a palace. How about we send these dowries to the Third Prince's palace?" Su Yue's heart was moved. She knew that she didn't really want to live a stable life in this time and space. She didn't even fully understand these princes and always thought that they had nothing to do with her. However, fate is always full of drama, and now she has become inextricably linked with them.

Su Yue pondered secretly, and the situation in front of her became more and more complicated. She knew nothing about this world, but now she had to face these complicated interpersonal relationships. In this unfamiliar environment, she felt a little confused and helpless. But no matter what, she decided to face the reality bravely and try to find her own direction. After all, life is an adventure full of unknowns. Only by moving forward can we discover more possibilities.
