In the years of famine, I was well versed in history and pampered the Northern Army

Xu Qingyin was originally staying at home alone, looking forward to Lu Yan's coronation ceremony tomorrow.

Xu Luohan was in the room, holding Xu Qingyin's hand. Under the dim light, the mother and daughter were together, just like an ordinary family.

"Tomorrow, Yan'er will ascend the throne. Have you thought about your future?"

When Xu Qingyin talked about this, she couldn't help but blush, even though she was facing her own mother.

"I...Mother, your daughter doesn't know either."

Xu Luohan held her hand tightly, her face full of love and tenderness:

"Although I didn't stay with you for a long time, I really love you no matter what, so I don't want you to compromise in any way."

Xu Qingyin nodded and looked into her mother's dark eyes, which were full of determination.

It’s been a long time. Now my mother, who is in her forties, has crow’s feet at the corners of her eyes. Time really flies by.

"Mother and daughter both know it."

"So do you really like Lu Yan? Mother has been with Yan'er for a long time, and he is indeed a good match. He has a good personality and is more than enough for you. Speaking of which, mother likes him very much, but if you don't like him, mother will never let you down."

Xu Luohan could see the affection between the two of them, but she was always a little worried. She was worried that her daughter was acting like this because she was too young and didn't understand the pros and cons.

She was always worried about her daughter, thinking that she had not taught her well enough and might regret it in the future.

Xu Qingyin was firm, her eyes full of affirmative love:

"I understand your mother's fear that I'll regret it, but I can guarantee that my feelings for Lu Yan are definitely not a spur-of-the-moment decision. He and I have been through life and death together many times over such a long time. We are entangled with each other in the bracelet system and have long been inseparable."

After saying this, Xu Qingyin realized how directly she had expressed her love, and a blush gradually appeared on her face.

Xu Luohan laughed out loud when she saw her daughter being so determined and shy.

"Well, since you have such a thought, why would your mother worry about you? I just hope that my daughter will be happy in the future."

Xu Luohan was thinking about this in her heart. Even though the new Empress Dowager was her close friend and Lu Yan was like her godson, she still wanted Lu Yan to come in person for the wedding.

Moreover, her daughter is her treasure. If Lu Yan takes another concubine in the future, she will not let her suffer any injustice even if it costs her own life.

Just as I was thinking about this, I heard the voice of the maid at the door:

"Madam, Miss, outside the door...it seems that His Majesty is coming."

Although Lu Yan is not the emperor and the coronation ceremony has not yet been held, everyone has become accustomed to it.

After all, he was not the one to whom the throne was passed, nor was he the crown prince.

"It's so late, the night is dark and the dew is heavy. Tomorrow he has to get up early to ascend the throne. What is he doing here today?"

Lu Yan was very tired these days, and Xu Qingyin couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

If there is something big, it will be the same after I am done with this busy period.

Xu Qingyin was thinking about this when she casually put on a pink gown. She looked like an immortal and opened the curtain in the moonlight. She really looked like a fairy.

But the maid was mysterious. She avoided Xu Qingyin and whispered a few words to Xu Luohan. Both of them had smiles on their faces.

This made Xu Qingyin even more confused. What could be the matter? Why didn't he come to see her?

Xu Luohan patted Xu Qingyin's shoulder:

"Some things are really beyond your ability to handle. Jiang Chun, take good care of the young lady here. I'll be back soon."

After Xu Luohan left, Xu Qingyin muttered to herself in the room:

"What's so mysterious?"

Jiang Chun didn't keep her mouth shut. Seeing Xu Qingyin anxious, she became even more anxious.

How could she bear not to tell the young lady about such a good thing?

Sure enough, Jiang Chun couldn't help it after guessing for less than ten minutes.

"Miss, why do you think His Majesty came here in red?"

Hearing this, Xu Qingyin was even more confused. If he ascended the throne the next day, would his clothes be mostly black?

Red...

Red clothes?!

Thinking of this, her face suddenly turned red.

Jiang Chun was afraid that the young lady had guessed wrong, so he continued:

"Not only that, His Majesty also brought thousands of boxes, and there were thousands of people carrying them. Can you guess why?"

Xu Qingyin blushed, covering her face and pacing around the room:

"Hey, why are you telling me this? Seriously..."

But the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.

Why did he come so early...

I originally thought that their affairs would have to wait until he ascended the throne.

But Xu Qingyin was thinking about Lu Yan when she unexpectedly saw her mother coming over:

"Now, I really need to use you. It depends on whether you are willing or not."

Xu Qingyin was stunned for a moment and quickly responded.

I just entered the main room. It was already late in the day, and even though there were candles, it was still dim.

The moment Xu Qingyin came in, Lu Yan's eyes never left her.

He had never seen such a casual witch before. She was dressed casually in a pink dress, like an elf falling from the sky.

Even though I knew it was a bit rude, I couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Isn’t Xu Qingyin the same?

I have only seen the serious Lu Yan on weekdays, but I have never seen her young man wearing such a red dress!

Now it seems that there really is a feeling of "riding a horse at a gallop in the spring breeze, and seeing all the flowers in Chang'an in one day".

Mr. Xu could not help but see the affectionate look of the young couple and smiled:

"Okay, okay, we can read more later. Now let's get down to business."

Xu Qingyin finally realized that, indeed, betrothal was usually a matter of parents' and matchmaker's decision. Although her mother would always ask her opinion, there was definitely more to it than just calling her here today.

Xu Qingyin also became puzzled:

"It's so late, is there anything you want to ask Qingyin to come over?"

Lu Yan lowered his head:

"I want you to accompany me to the coronation ceremony tomorrow."

Xu Qingyin was surprised:

"Of course I can accompany you."

Mr. Xu explained:

"That's not what he meant. He wants you to ascend the throne with him. Even though you won't be king, it would still be the highest level."

"This... this is against the rules..."

Xu Qingyin quickly refused.

Lu Yan became anxious and explained hurriedly:

"According to the rules, if a monarch loves a woman, believes that the interests of the country are inseparable from her, and is determined not to depose the queen, he must ascend the throne with her."

Xu Qingyin seemed to have heard of it as well.

"But... no one has ever done this."

“Then I’ll be the first one.”
