Full level Black Heart Lotus, reborn to bully scumbags every day!

Three years later.

Emperor Qianwu issued an edict, ordering Xie Jingchi and Shen Shuyi to return to Beijing immediately without delay.

The person who came to deliver the decree was not someone else, but Zhao Baokun, who had not been seen for a long time. Zhao Baokun had grown a lot taller now, and his face had lost its original childishness and became much more mature.

"Cousin, you really have to go back this time. His Majesty has urged you for the fifth time. If you hadn't refused to go back, His Majesty would not have issued an edict." Zhao Baokun couldn't help but speak.

Xie Jingchi frowned and said, "Shushu is pregnant now, so it's not suitable for her to travel long distances."

Zhao Baokun was embarrassed: "I can't disobey the order."

He looked at Shen Shuyi in embarrassment. Shen Shuyi dismissed his attendants and looked at him and said, "But your Majesty is not in good health?"

"Cousin, you are wise. I don't know where my cousin got the news from, but it said that His Majesty coughed up blood some time ago and secretly summoned two trusted imperial physicians." Zhao Baokun lowered his voice.

Shen Shuhan thought that he had to come here anyway, so he didn't mention it in his mind.

Shen Shuyi frowned slightly. It had only been three years, and Emperor Qianwu's health had become like this?

You should know that in his previous life, Xie Jingchi killed Xiao Tingshan ten years later. At that time, Xiao Tingshan was in high spirits, while Emperor Qianwu had already shown signs of old age and was unable to do anything.

I didn't expect that after his new life, his health would fail so soon?

Shen Shuyi and Xie Jingchi exchanged a glance and said slowly, "In that case, let's pack our bags and set off on a chosen day."

Xie Jingchi was a little worried about her belly, but Shen Shuyi said, "It's okay, it's only been three months, we just need to walk slowly on the road."

"Okay." Xie Jingchi nodded.

Shen Shu thought that if Emperor Qianwu was really seriously ill, they would have to rush back at this time.

After all, Daqian has not yet appointed a crown prince. Shen Shuyi speculated that perhaps in this life, Emperor Qianwu would bypass Xiao Tingshan and directly enthrone Xie Jingchi.

"I heard from my brother that Xiao Tingshan is in good health now?" Shen Shuyi asked.

"Yes, he looked like he was dying, but he's still alive today. God is truly merciless." Zhao Baokun shrugged and said, "But I think his complexion is actually a little rosier than before."

Shen Shuyi said slowly, "Brother said earlier that he secretly took elixirs, which seemed to have miraculous effects? And Your Majesty also took the elixirs he offered?"

When this was mentioned, Zhao Baokun was silent for a while.

"Yes, Your Majesty is now quite obsessed with alchemy, bewitched by Xiao Tingshan into pursuing immortality. Your Majesty was clearly in good health before, with only some old ailments, but now... well, you will understand when you return."

Shen Shuyi didn't say anything, but felt that this was in line with Xiao Tingshan's style.

Since his life is difficult to extend, but he is extremely eager for that position, it is better to shorten Emperor Qianwu's life span. In this way, his chances will be greater.

Shen Shuyi calculated the time: "It seems that we should go back and close the net."

Three days later, Shen Shuyi, Xie Jingchi and their group set off back to Beijing.

Before leaving, they completed the handover of affairs in Liangzhou, Heicheng, Pingcheng and Mocheng. Half a year after they captured Heicheng, they successively captured Pingcheng and Mocheng.

From then on, they rested and recuperated, developed agriculture and commerce, engaged in trade, and trained soldiers.

Today, thanks to the joint efforts of Shen Shuyi and Xie Jingchi, the six cities connected to Liangzhou are thriving and looking brand new.

Not only do the people live and work in peace and contentment, but the life is also extremely prosperous.

Therefore, the reputations of Xie Jingchi, Shen Shuyi and the Wolf King are particularly high in this area. The people support them very much and worship them as gods.

On the way back to Beijing, many people saw him off.

Shen Shuyi looked at those simple faces, feeling a little dazed.

Once I leave, I don’t know if I will have the chance to come back.

Although the climate here is not as good as that in the capital, let alone in the south of the Yangtze River, Shen Shuyi has indeed fallen in love with this place over the past few years.

However, compared to staying here, she wanted all the people in the world to live and work in peace and stay away from war.

She didn't know whether she and Xie Jingchi could do it, but at least in this life, she felt that she had someone by her side and was no longer walking alone.

"Princess Mingzhu, these are fruits grown in my own home. Please take them." Someone squeezed forward and desperately stuffed the basket into Shen Shuyi's carriage.

Shen Shuyi thanked him sincerely. For a moment, he felt a little empty in his heart as he was about to leave.

It took Shen Shuyi and Xie Jingchi a long time just to leave Liangzhou. It was not until they left the suburbs that their journey became much faster.

After the loneliness of parting faded away, it turned into joy of returning to Beijing.

After all, my brother is still in Beijing, and my cousin Xueqing, my elder uncle, my younger uncle, my grandparents are all there, as well as my sister Yao, Tong Xuan, Jiang Li and others.

There were so many familiar people and things that made her eager to go home.

My grandfather led his troops in Yancheng and remained in a stalemate with the Luo Kingdom for two years. He finally found an opportunity to counterattack. However, thanks to the power of the chariot crossbow, the Luo Kingdom did not gain any benefits and suffered heavy casualties.

After Lu Xiao changed his name and surname, he became a general of the Luo State.

My grandfather's last battle was with Lu Xiao. Although Lu Xiao was a great general, people in Luo State did not trust him that much. He failed to display his full strength and was eventually killed by his uncle Zhao Dechuan.

At this point, Luo State and Daqian renegotiated a peace agreement, stopped the war for ten years, and reached a series of cooperation again.

So, a year ago, my grandfather and his entourage had already returned to Beijing. My grandfather was not greedy for credit, and he handed over the military power as soon as he returned to Beijing.

However, Emperor Qianwu did not take it back, and ordered my grandfather to remain the commander-in-chief of the Xuan Ce Army, but he did not have to leave the capital unless there was a war.

In this way, it is both a grace and a control.

As for Tong Guan, he is now a notorious eunuch in the court, and is also the director of the ruthless and all-pervasive Jinyi Division.

Shen Shuyi was thinking about the situation in the capital all the way, and taking the opportunity to look at the customs and habits of the people in various places. Time passed very quickly.

More than half a month later, the group arrived safely at the gate of the capital.

Xie Jingchi helped Shen Shuyi get out of the car. Shen Shuyi looked up at the huge plaque in the capital and smiled faintly.

After several years, I finally came back here.

What Shen Shuyi didn't expect was that as soon as she got off the car, she met the most disgusting person.

Xiao Tingshan was dressed in a moon-white robe and was chatting with the people in front of the gate with a few people. He looked quite kind and serious. It was obvious that he often used this attitude to win the hearts of the people.

Perhaps noticing his gaze, Xiao Tingshan looked up.

The moment he saw Shen Shuyi, he was in a trance for a moment, his eyes fell on her, and he didn't move away for a long time.

It's really her.

She has come back!

Of course, there is also that annoying Xie Jingchi.

When he learned that his father was going to recall them, he had thought about getting rid of them both. After all, the days without these two people opposing him were really wonderful.
