With a million soldiers, the empress begged me not to rebel

Lu Yan was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. He coughed lightly and began his welcome speech.

"Dear distinguished guests from afar, welcome to Shannan Prefecture!"

"On behalf of all the people of Shannan Prefecture, I would like to extend my warmest welcome to you all!"

After the speech, the luncheon officially began.

Everyone was toasting each other, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

During the banquet, representatives from various countries praised the prosperity of Shannan Prefecture and Lu Yan's talents.

Princess Mingyue also drank alcohol in Kuku just to win over Lu Yan.

When it was almost over, she found Lu Yan and wanted to express her feelings.

But he returned to the room with Lu Yan's help.

Taking advantage of the alcohol, she deliberately leaned on Lu Yan, breathing sweetly:

"Master Lu, I feel dizzy..."

She raised her head and stared at Lu Yan with her big watery eyes, full of expectation.

Like a little deer waiting to be fed, it makes people feel pity for it.

Lu Yan looked at the delicate beauty in his arms, and his heart couldn't help but be moved.

Princess Mingyue's beauty and passion are a fatal temptation to any man.

But he knew that he couldn't cross the line, and he kept repeating this in his mind.

"Form is emptiness, emptiness is form...After form, everything is matter."

He gently helped Princess Mingyue sit on the bed and said softly:

"Your Highness, you've drunk too much. Go get some rest."

Princess Mingyue sighed inwardly, thinking that Lu Yan was really a tough nut to crack.

It's like a smelly and hard stone that can't be warmed up no matter how hard you try.

But she did not give up, instead she became more determined to get him.

I just don't believe it. Can't I win him over with my own charm?

Holding Lu Yan's hand, she said coquettishly:

"Mr. Lu, please stay with me. I'm scared to be alone... There are monsters out there! They can eat people!"

She pretended to be pitiful, hoping to impress Lu Yan.

Lu Yan was completely stunned and could hardly control himself, not to mention that he had drunk a little bit of wine.

Lu Yan struggled for a while and pulled his hand back with difficulty.

"There are differences between men and women, so I can't stay here for long. You should get some rest early, and I'll come see you again tomorrow."

After saying that, he quickly left the room, covering his buttocks.

As soon as Lu Yan walked out of Princess Mingyue's room, he ran into Li Kui.

He quickly took his hand away.

"Xiao Kui, how is Miss Chen?"

Li Kui saw this and asked:

"Sir, what happened to you? Were you shot by an arrow?"

Lu Yan coughed awkwardly and waved his hand:

"It's okay, it's okay, I just accidentally bumped into the door frame."

Li Kui looked at Lu Yan suspiciously, then looked at Princess Mingyue's room behind him, and understood.

"Sir, please don't hide it from me. I understand everything! As a man, it's inevitable that he will have impulsive moments."

He winked and smiled, with an expression that said "I get you".

Lu Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This Li Kui was really a funny guy.

"What are you thinking, kid? I didn't do anything!"

"Hehe, sir, I understand even without you saying it. Princess Mingyue is a famous beauty. What man wouldn't be tempted by her?"

Li Kui chuckled with a wicked smile on his face.

"You kid, if you keep talking nonsense, I'll beat you up!"

Lu Yan pretended to be angry.

"Okay, sir, I won't say anything more. I won't say anything more."

Li Kui quickly waved his hands, not daring to continue teasing.

"How is Miss Chen?"

Lu Yan changed the subject and asked.

"Your Excellency, Miss Chen has been settled in and is now resting in the guest room."

Li Kui replied quickly.

"That's good. You've worked hard."

Lu Yan nodded, feeling a little relieved.

"Sir, you should also rest early. I'm going on patrol."

After Li Kui finished speaking, he turned and left.

Lu Yan looked at Li Kui's departing back and shook his head helplessly.

This kid is really smart.

However, when he passed by Chen Qingwan's room, he heard a vague mumbling coming from inside:

"Lu Yan...Lu Yan..."

It was Chen Qingwan's voice.

Lu Yan paused, feeling confused.

He gently pushed open the door and saw Chen Qingwan lying on the bed, her face flushed, her brows furrowed, and she kept repeating his name.

Lu Yan walked to the bedside and leaned over, trying to hear what she was saying.

"Lu Yan...you bastard...why are you so nice to me...and why are you so cold to me..."

Chen Qingwan's voice was intermittent, filled with drunkenness and grievance.

Lu Yan's heart was shocked, and an inexplicable feeling surged in his heart.

He looked at Chen Qingwan's drunken appearance and instantly sobered up because other thoughts came to his mind.

He couldn't help but stretch out his hand, gently stroked Chen Qingwan's cheek, and said softly:

"Miss Chen, you are drunk..."

Chen Qingwan suddenly grabbed his hand and held it tightly.

She opened her blurry eyes and looked at Lu Yan with tenderness in her eyes:

"Lu Yan...don't leave me..."

Chen Qingwan's breathing gradually became rapid, with a hint of drunkenness.

Lu Yan's heart softened. Looking at Chen Qingwan like this, he really couldn't bear to push her away.

......

After a night of passion, Chen Qingwan woke up in Lu Yan's arms.

Besides feeling embarrassed, the drunkenness from last night also completely dissipated as she looked at Lu Yan's angular face.

An indescribable feeling welled up in my heart.

"Lu Yan..."

Chen Qingwan called out softly.

Lu Yan opened his eyes, looked at the shy beauty in his arms, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"woke up?"

Chen Qingwan nodded and took a deep breath, as if she had made an important decision.

"Lu Yan, I have something to tell you... Actually, I am..."

"The Empress of the Datong Dynasty."

Lu Yan took over her words.

Chen Qingwan looked at him in surprise, her eyes full of confusion.

"You...how do you know?"

Lu Yan smiled and scratched her nose.

"Silly boy, do you really think I didn't notice anything? Your words, actions, and temperament are all different from those of ordinary women. It's just that I haven't pointed it out to you until you tell me in person."

Chen Qingwan was moved and hugged Lu Yan tightly.

"Lu Yan, thank you..."

Lu Yan stroked her back gently and said softly:

"Silly, why thank me? I like you no matter who you are."

The two of them slept in each other's arms and didn't get up until noon.

Chen Qingwan had already stood up and was standing by the window, looking into the distance.

The bright yellow robe sparkled in the sun, highlighting the royal majesty.

Lu Yan walked to her side and gently hugged her from behind. The two of them hugged each other quietly, feeling each other's warmth.

"Lu Yan, do you know? After my father passed away, treacherous ministers took power in the court. I had to secretly accumulate strength and wait for the right time to regain control of the government."

Lu Yan nodded, full of admiration for Chen Qingwan's experience.

“It’s not easy for you.”

"Fortunately, I met you."

Chen Qingwan turned around and looked at Lu Yan affectionately.

"Under your rule, the people of Shannan Prefecture live and work in peace and contentment. No one picks up things on the streets, and no one locks their doors at night. This gives me hope and strengthens my faith."

Lu Yan smiled and said:

"Everything I do is for the people, for all the people of the world. I hope to help you govern the Datong Dynasty to become more prosperous and powerful, so that the people can live a happy and healthy life."

"Lu Yan, thank you."

Chen Qingwan was moved and hugged Lu Yan again.

The two of them confided in each other, which further strengthened their feelings for each other.

"When I recapture Datong, you and I will be married and live together forever, okay?"

Chen Qingwan looked up at Lu Yan. She was tired and just wanted to enjoy her future life.

Lu Yan nodded in agreement without hesitation.

"Okay! I'll wait for you."

Before leaving, Chen Qingwan and Lu Yan bid farewell to each other and agreed that after Datong was recovered, they would return to Shannan Prefecture to reunite with him again.

"Just go ahead and do it. I'll be your strongest backer. I'll have the money and the people."

Lu Yan said domineeringly.

Chen Qingwan felt Lu Yan's firm support and was filled with strength.

"I understand. I'll be back as soon as possible."

Chen Qingwan left Shannan Prefecture and continued on her journey.

Lu Yan stayed in Shannan Prefecture, waiting for her return...
