"What the Sui Dynasty could not accomplish, the Tang Dynasty will definitely do its utmost to accomplish!"

"Generals, do you understand?"

The firmness in His Majesty's tone was unshakable.

Everyone could clearly feel his determination, no one dared to object, and naturally no one would stand up to refute.

……

Chang'an, Zhang Mansion.

Li Xueyan returned from the Jiangxia Palace with great joy, her steps as brisk as a dancing butterfly.

Her Zhang Lang wrote her a letter!

This sudden surprise made her very happy.

She even forgot about her favorite novels, and those wonderful stories became dim in her heart.

She had also heard yesterday's battle report. The good news of a great victory from the front made her already happy mood even more excited.

After reading Zhang Xianhuai's letter, she immediately went to Qin's house to find Jiang Lai.

As His Majesty's close bodyguard, Zhang Xianhuai is highly skilled in martial arts and extremely alert. He is responsible for protecting His Majesty's safety and will naturally not encounter danger easily.

But Qin Ruzhao was different. As a general who led the charge into battle, he was on the battlefield with no mercy. Every battle he went into was like walking on the edge of life and death.

No one can predict when an accident will happen.

Moreover, Li Xueyan actually had an unspeakable sense of indebtedness towards Jiang Lai, which weighed heavily on her heart.

Soon, Li Xueyan arrived at the Qin Mansion. The door of the Qin Mansion was closed, revealing a sense of desolation. Every time she came here, she would feel that this mansion was cold and deserted.

However, the two lions at the door, which have been trained like dogs, are quite interesting.

Li Xueyan went up and kicked the cage twice out of boredom.

Wake up two sleeping lions.

After being woken up, the lion looked up at Li Xueyan, then turned his head and went back to sleep.

After all, Qin Ruzhao is the general of the Shenwu Guard and is in charge of an important military position. Why doesn't he hire more servants to take care of the mansion?

This kind of frugality is really too much.

Li Xueyan walked into the Qin Mansion happily.

As soon as I entered the house, I saw Jiang Lai conscientiously sweeping the snow in the courtyard with a broom.

The cold wind blew, but she was unaware of it. She just focused on the work in her hands. The rhythm of her life was simple and real.

Seeing this, Li Xueyan hurried forward and helplessly pulled Jiang Lai to her side, scolding her, "My dear little aunt, you are now the general's wife after all, and a princess of the Tang Dynasty. Your status is extremely noble. Why do you always do the housework yourself?"

"If this gets out, people will think the Qin family has treated you unfairly!"

"In my opinion, you should hire more people to help you, so that you can relax and enjoy a peaceful life."

Jiang Lai raised his head slightly, a faint smile on his face, gentle and warm.

She shook her head gently, then pulled Li Xueyan to sit on a stone bench beside her and said gently, "Sister, why are you here?"

"Please sit here first. I'll make you a pot of tea. This is a gift from His Majesty. It tastes delicious. I'm sure you will like it."

Seeing Jiang Lai get up to make tea, Li Xueyan quickly reached out and held her back, saying distressedly, "You! Why are you always working so hard?"

"Can't you just take a break and let others do the chores?"

As she spoke, she reached out and gently rubbed Jiang Lai's forehead, her eyes full of pity.

Jiang Lai shook his head again, with a simple look in his eyes.

She said slowly, "Sister, I was born into an ordinary family. I'm used to doing these kinds of work. If I were to sit around doing nothing all day, I'd feel uncomfortable."

"Besides, now that I have a stable house like this to live in, and I can tend to some flowers and plants in my spare time, I already feel very satisfied."

"Moreover, Ruzhao treats me very well. Although he is not good at speaking, I can feel his sincerity. I cherish my current life and feel very happy."

Jiang Lai said sincerely.
