Deep Palace Pet Peach Blossom Flawless

The Crown Princess was very pleased with the words of the Fifth Prince's wife, and the Crown Prince did everything he could to give enough face to his new wife, the Crown Princess.

Just when the Crown Princess was feeling a little elated, the peace in Fengqi Palace was broken by an unexpected piece of news!

Ru Ping was so excited after hearing the news that she reported it to Lan Qingwu without hesitation.

Lan Qingwu raised his eyes in surprise: "You said someone from Liuyun City is coming?"

Someone from Floating Cloud City in the distant southern seas had arrived, having traveled thousands of miles and endured many hardships before finally reaching the Imperial City. Lan Qingwu knew her as Hai Lanshan, Floating Cloud City's only female commander and general, and she had come through countless hardships.

"Madam Zuo looked more like she was fleeing, as if she was hiding from someone. She entered the palace directly with General Zuo's token, and His Majesty summoned her directly to Qianzheng Palace."

The Qianzheng Palace was impregnable, and no one could reach out. Lan Qingwu pondered for a moment, "I'm afraid it's related to the pirates from Liuyun City! Ruping, control the people in the palace and stop them from saying anything messy. Send someone to the Qianzheng Palace gate to see if His Majesty has any instructions."

Ru Ping obeyed the order, but Ru Qu Ru Han asked worriedly, "My Lady, has the war in Liuyun City worsened again?"

Lan Qingwu frowned. "No, it shouldn't be! Your Majesty has attached great importance to the naval forces in recent years and opened a dedicated sea route. Although pirates are rampant, they mostly operate in the deep sea. The coast should be safe. What serious matter could have caused Madam Zuo to travel thousands of miles and travel through the night to see His Majesty?"

In fact, the situation was much more serious than Lan Qingwu had guessed. Emperor Shenwu did not return to Fengqi Palace at dinner time, and asked Li Xiang to tell Lan Qingwu to eat first.

Late at night, Emperor Shenwu hurried to Fengqi Palace and saw Lan Qingwu still waiting for him.

Lan Qingwu welcomed the Emperor Shenwu in, and the Emperor Shenwu said directly: "I have something to arrange for Zuo Xiaohu's wife Hai. Arrange a place for her to live. She is not a woman in the harem, and she is also my wife. You can arrange it!"

Lan Qingwu nodded and said, "He is also an honored guest. It is late now. Why not arrange for him to stay in Heyun Palace? It is far away from the harem and in the center of the palace. It will be convenient for His Majesty to summon him. What do you think?"

Emperor Shenwu nodded. Lan Qingwu walked to his side and gently massaged his temples on both sides. Emperor Shenwu breathed a sigh of relief and gently closed his eyes.

The next day, Lan Qingwu ordered Ruping to go to Heyun Palace to pay a visit to Hai Lanshan, and gave her some daily necessities, hoping that Madam Zuo could live more comfortably.

When Ru Ping came back to report, there was an extra person behind her.

Lan Qingwu looked at Hai Lanshan who was kneeling on the ground, and quickly signaled to Ruhan with his eyes: "Help Madam Zuo up quickly!"

Hai Lanshan stood up, and Lan Qingwu realized that her face was very pale. "Mrs. Zuo, please sit down. Didn't you get enough rest last night?"

Hai Lanshan shook her head slightly: "I have been traveling for more than half a month and I am exhausted."

Lan Qingwu was silent for a moment. Firstly, it was because Hai Lanshan called herself "the subject's wife". Many years ago, she was still a high-spirited female commander, but now she could only call herself "the subject's wife". Secondly, Lan Qingwu realized that something big had indeed happened in the sea area. A month's journey was shortened by half by Hai Lanshan.

Lan Qingwu ordered, "Go and get Imperial Physician Nie."

He added, "No matter what, health is the most important thing. It's been so long since we last met. I wonder how the female general is doing now?"

Hai Lanshan also had a face full of vicissitudes of life. "Yes! After so many years, things and people have changed."

She became the true Madam Zuo and has always protected the people of Floating Cloud City. The little concubine she once looked down upon has become the Empress Dasheng, the mother of the country, benefiting the people! Over the long years, she no longer looked down on others, and gradually learned about the deeds of the Empress of the Central Palace. Only then did she realize how narrow-minded she was back then.

"I still remember the female general's elegance back then. I'm sure even if she gets married, she'll be free and unfettered in the vast mountains and rivers of Floating Cloud City!"

Hai Lanshan discovered that Lan Qingwu really liked calling herself "female general." In fact, she herself preferred her general title. "It seems that time has been particularly kind to the Empress. You are still as beautiful as ever! Before I could congratulate you, His Majesty has already appointed a crown prince. He is the hope of our Dasheng Dynasty! I also have a ten-year-old daughter. She is very naughty and hardworking. She has almost inherited the best qualities of me and her father. She has excellent muscles and bones, and is a good material for martial arts. Unfortunately..."

Lan Qingwu asked, "Are you worried that she's just a girl?"

"Take me as an example. Although I have made countless military achievements, in the end I still had to marry and take my husband's surname. Now, when I meet the queen, I have to call myself a subject."

Hai Lanshan shook her head. "It's too difficult for a woman to walk this path! Five or six years ago, I lost a son. If that child were still alive, he could at least be a support for me and my daughter."

"This is the way the world is. There is no need for you to be so sentimental, General. It is I who have brought up your sad memories."

"It's nothing, it's in the past."

At this time, Doctor Nie rushed to Fengqi Palace, and he found out that the person who needed to be diagnosed was the female general from Haicheng who had entered the palace yesterday.
