The hero fell for the cannon fodder maid.

He Jingming smiled. Yue'er would finally be his. He believed that Yue'er would marry him.

He felt Xiao Wanyue's gaze turn around and look at her, so he hugged her in his arms and put his head on Xiao Wanyue's head, looking like he was living in peace and tranquility.

Xiao Wanyue also nestled in his arms motionless, mainly because she got up a little early this morning and now wanted to sleep after dinner. Her whole body was clamoring for sleep.

Xiao Wanyue: "Do you love me?"

She asked in a low voice, her voice as thin as a mosquito, but He Jingming heard it and said, "Love is better than loving yourself."

Xiao Wanyue didn't hear that she had fallen asleep. He Jingming glanced at Xiao Wanyue and realized that she had fallen asleep, and laughed a little.

After having someone clear away the food, he carried Xiao Wanyue back to the Qin'an Palace and placed her on the dragon bed. He took off her shoes and outer clothes and carefully covered her with a quilt. After watching the woman's sleeping face for a while, he left the Qin'an Palace and instructed the eunuchs, "Don't disturb her."

The eunuch knelt on the ground tremblingly and said, "Yes."

After saying that, he left Qin'an Palace and summoned He Chuan to ask him to be responsible for matters related to the empress's coronation ceremony. He also asked Wang Gui to go to the clothing bureau, as making wedding clothes would definitely require great care and effort.

The eunuch was a new eunuch, and it was his first time to receive orders from His Majesty. He had to do his best to fulfill His Majesty's orders, as he was not a useless person.

When Xiao Zheng and his wife returned to the palace, they discussed what the emperor had said with their wives.

"Madam, it seems that His Majesty is determined to marry our daughter. We can't stop him even if we want to. What do you think, Madam?"

Lin Jingya frowned, with a look of worry on her face. She also knew that His Majesty wanted to marry Yue'er from their family. When he first came to the palace, his determined eyes fell into her eyes.

I know he won't give up easily, but Yue'er has a secret, and it's not clear whether it's good or bad for her to marry a powerful man.

Lin Jingya said: "I have no other choice."

Xiao Zheng: "The Emperor has already learned about the imperial decree granting the marriage from General Zheng. Today in the court, the Emperor said that he would establish a queen. The look he gave my brother Qing'er clearly indicated this to us."

Xiao Lingqing on the side was a little bit unbelievable. He didn't expect that his sister was not only with the emperor, but also had an engagement. He found it a little difficult to accept it for a while.

Lin Jingya: "Maybe marrying him is the best choice for Yue'er, that matter..."

Xiao Zheng knew what Lin Jingya hadn't finished saying, and he also agreed with Lin Jingya's idea. After all, he had the same idea.

Xiao Zheng: "Alas, maybe this is fate."

Lin Jingya's gaze drifted away and she sighed.

They hadn't protected Yue'er well back then, and they probably couldn't protect her well now. Those who coveted those things must have noticed Yue'er. They couldn't let her get hurt again.

Although their daughter has returned, they have only been together for a few days. Their daughter is graceful and beautiful, like a blooming flower. They miss their beautiful daughter very much, but the emperor will not let their daughter come back.

Xiao Wanyue wanted to leave the palace after she had slept enough. She hadn't been out for a long time, and today she had to persuade He Jingming to go out with her.

She also missed home, and He Jingming should relax. He had been dealing with scientific research matters during this period, and she felt that He Jingming had lost weight. Maybe she could notice any changes in people she was familiar with. She also discovered now that as long as she liked someone, any slight change in that person would attract her attention.

Xiao Wanyue asked He Liu and took Xiaochun to find He Jingming. The sun was shining brightly today. He Jingming was discussing with several ministers the envoys from several countries coming to Da Chu and how to receive them.

This time the envoys came to Da Chu not simply to congratulate him on his ascension to the throne, but to test the strength of Da Chu. If they did not have something to show off and to intimidate them, these people would most likely attack Da Chu and wait for an opportunity.

When Xiao Wanyue arrived, they had almost finished discussing everything, leaving only one minister in the room. Xiao Wanyue recognized him. Wasn't this Xie Yu? The brotherhood between these two was quite deep, and they were often together.

No wonder many readers find the relationship between these two people very unusual.

But this parallel universe is different from the novel after all.

As soon as Xie Yu saw Xiao Wanyue coming, he said goodbye and left. After all, he was still sensible.

Xiao Wanyue took He Jingming's hand and said, "He Jingming, let's go out of the palace and have some fun today, okay?"

He Jingming didn't know what this little fox was going to do next, but as long as she didn't leave him, he would agree, not to mention that she was just going out of the palace to play.

He was very busy during this period and had not been alone with her most of the time. Knowing that she was tired of staying in the palace and wanted to go out and play, he naturally supported her.

Seeing the man was silent, Xiao Wanyue was about to speak when she heard He Jingming say, "Okay, let's go change our clothes and go out through the palace gate today, okay?"

Xiao Wanyue was stunned. She thought she should continue to persuade him, but she didn't expect him to agree to her.

The two changed their clothes and left the palace with He Liu and He Chuan.

When I arrived at the street, it was very lively. It was still early, and the street vendors were hawking their wares enthusiastically, and the traffic was very busy.

Xiao Wanyue was pulled by He Jingming, and her eyes swept over the dazzling array of things. She saw someone selling herbs, and they were the ones she hadn't found, which made her even happier.

Xiao Wanyue pulled He Jingming to the stall selling herbs. The person selling herbs was a man of about fourteen or fifteen years old. Next to him was a little boy of about thirteen or fourteen years old. However, both of them looked very pale and their hands were shaking constantly. It was obvious that they were very hungry.

Xiao Wanyue took out two buns from her arms and handed them to the two teenagers. The two teenagers were a little overwhelmed. They didn't expect someone to give them food. They hadn't eaten for many days. They drank water every day to fill their stomachs.

They finally dug up some herbs in the mountains and went into the city despite being exhausted. However, no one wanted to buy these herbs. They had no choice but to set up a stall in this remote place, hoping that someone would buy their herbs or give them some food.

As a result, no one was interested by noon.

Suddenly, a woman who looked like a fairy handed them two white buns. They were indescribably moved. They had met enough bad people and no longer had any hope in the world. They did not expect to meet a fairy.

But they were all dirty and they were not worthy of defiling such a beautiful fairy.

Xiao Wanyue passed the buns to the two of them again and said, "Eat quickly. If you don't want to eat, your brother will want to eat too. Consider these two buns as what I bought for you. I'll also buy your herbs, and the money for the buns will be deducted from the money for the herbs."

After hearing this, the older boy wiped his hands before taking the steamed buns. The other little boy was also very sensible. He looked at his brother's steamed buns and didn't rush to ask for them. It was obvious that these two people were well-educated. I don't know how such a boy could become like this.

The two young men started eating. Xiao Wanyue looked at the herbs again and liked them very much.

Just as she was about to pick it up, someone called out from behind, "Sister, sister."

Xiao Wanyue was a little confused. Who was this person calling? He Jingming had already turned his head and saw a handsome young man standing a few steps away with a smile on his face.

Xiao Wanyue looked again and again, and the boy just smiled at her. Suddenly, she saw the shadow of a person on that outstanding face.

It turned out to be him, the little villain!

And the little villain calls himself sister! !
