After I fell off my horse, I was married for nine thousand years

Emperor Chengde had never had such a miserable New Year.

He didn't know how he let those courtiers go back, and he didn't know how he got back to the palace.

Empress Zhou kept holding her hand, and when Emperor Chengde came back to his senses, they were already sitting on the dragon bed in the bedroom.

A bowl of hot soup was poured into his belly, and the soul of Emperor Chengde returned to his seat. He let out a breath of foul air, turned his head, and saw Empress Zhou who had been looking at him softly.

At this time, there was no one else in the palace except them. Emperor Chengde realized that he was enveloped by the shame and anger that swept over him. He grabbed Queen Zhou's hand suddenly, with fierce eyes, and whispered: "We must kill you!" Liu Qingyun, definitely, definitely kill Liu Qingyun!"

"You understand what I mean," Emperor Chengde stared at Empress Zhou, "You must understand what I mean..."

Empress Zhou's hands hurt from his grip, but she still smiled.Her eyes were full of empathy, and she looked at Emperor Chengde relyingly, as if he was the sky she could always rely on: "Your Majesty, my concubine understands."

She understands.

Empress Zhou stretched out her arms and hugged him.

Emperor Chengde didn't push her away this time.

They hugged like this, and waited until the people who searched Yan Huaiyin's mansion and Qiantui mansion sent back news.

The people sent out searched around, and when they came back to report, they tremblingly said: "Your Majesty, the mansion is empty."

They had been evacuated a long time ago, so Jiang Lian and Yan Huaiyin naturally couldn't leave anything for Emperor Chengde.

Liu Qingyun received the news at the same time in his own mansion, he couldn't see any joy or anger on his face, and said for a long time: "Bring the paper."

He wants to write a letter to Zhao Huan.

Credible didn't send it out - Chaohua City was surrounded by the Heyu Army.

Yan Huaiyin surrounded the imperial capital, but did not go any further. Now within the imperial capital, Emperor Chengde only has the imperial army in his hands, but outside the imperial capital, the Red Army is going to entangle with the Turks, and the Jiangbei camp is being restrained by Jiang Lian.

For a moment, the four sides did not dare to move. Yan Huaiyin's move was to tell the whole Daqi to those who were staring at him that he did not want to spread the flames of war to the whole Daqi.

The people can no longer stand the flames of war, so the matter of Chaohua City will be settled in Chaohua City.

Therefore, Yan Huaiyin didn't have a long time, and people who were eager to move around didn't give him a long time. If the former little prince couldn't hold down the dragon of Chaohua City, he would be devoured by them in a blink of an eye.

After all, it is only in troubled times that Niao Xiong is born.

What Yan Huaiyin had to do at this time was to let everyone know his identity, that's why he took off his mask at the banquet, and then ran out of the city from the street in a majestic manner.

As much as the people of Chaohua City hated Emperor Chengde, they missed the old prince as much.

A teacher who is well-known and won the hearts of the people is what Yan Huaiyin needs.

After reading Liu Qingyun's letter with lowered eyes, Yan Huaiyin handed it to Huo Yunping and Liu Shangqing who were next to her.

"A small group of twenty forbidden troops came out from Chaohua City today," Huo Yunping took the letter, scanned it at a glance, and handed it to Liu Shangqing beside him, "the princess brought them back with the Crane Feather Army and put them in prison." .”

Liu Shangqing didn't swallow the letter like he did. After reading it carefully, he folded the letter and said to Yan Huaiyin, "Even if this letter is not delivered to Zhao Huan, he will send troops over."

Liu Qingyun naturally thought so, so he didn't write anything useful in this letter—it was more like a demonstration than sending a letter.

Zhao Huan is now the biggest variable.

The soldiers and horses went ahead without moving the grain and grass, and Zhao Huan's soldiers did not leave the northwest, but the price of grain in the northwest jumped up suddenly.

Yan Huaiyin didn't have anything to deal with Zhao Huan now, after listening to Liu Shangqing's words quietly, he asked, "Is there any news yet?"

"Master, no," Liu Shangqing smiled wryly, "Such a tiger talisman has been turned over several times in Chaohua City, but it just can't be turned over."

Yan Huaiyin thought in his heart, and said in a warm voice: "With the Tiger Talisman, there will be a way to compete with Zhao Huan. Naturally, it is impossible to find it easily."

He was still undecided, so he didn't tell Liu Shangqing.

But what he didn't say was seen by Jiang Lian.

After the person left, Jiang Lian shook his hand: "Guess it?"

Yan Huaiyin was curled up by his fingertips, and went to see him: "It should be like this."

Jiang Lian didn't speak anymore, he went to look at Yan Huaiyin quietly, there was something in his eyes, Yan Huaiyin couldn't understand, wanted to ask him, but before he could speak, the door was broken open.

The place where they lived was snatched from the bandits. In addition to the Heyu Army, people from Dongchang and Jinyiwei also came with them. The house was not enough to live in, and the largest house was also separated to live in people.

Yan Huaiyin and Jiang Lian lived in the most ordinary small room, except for a bed, there was not much other space.

The person who came was a young eunuch from Dongchang, when Yan Huaiyin saw him, he immediately straightened his waist.

They left someone in Zhaohua City, this is the little eunuch who is responsible for passing news to the palace.

The person this little eunuch was in contact with was Jiang Yang.

Yan Huaiyin didn't wait until Jiang Yang brought Yan Wanqing out of the city, he just waited for a package from Xiao Rubi, which contained a letter and a wooden box, after Yan Huaiyin read the letter, he didn't speak for a long time.

After a long time, he calmly said to Jiang Lian: "How my aunt chooses is her business, but I can't do nothing. As long as she is still alive, I will plan for her one day."

He said softly: "Try not to mention her in the process of negotiating with the imperial capital. It is best to let her be ignored, as long as you live well first."

Just live first.

The only thing that reassured Yan Huaiyin was that Jiang Yang stayed by her side. He was the apprentice handed over by Jiang Lian, who could always protect Xiao Rubi a bit.

But at this moment, seeing the little eunuch flustered, Yan Huaiyin seemed to have guessed something, so he even lowered his voice: "What's the matter? Just say it."

The little eunuch knelt there and opened his mouth several times before he dared to say the next thing: "My lord, Concubine An is dead."

Concubine An died.

The news spread throughout Zhaohua City in just one day.

Emperor Chengde restored her status as a queen, buried her according to the etiquette of a queen, and named her posthumously Empress Minglie.

In the hall where Empress Minglie's coffin was placed, Aunt Lian Fang who had been beside her since entering the palace announced a decree.

It is written in Yi's decree that she has no children, and the orphan Chen Ying has no one to rely on, and she is dignified and gentle, so she is adopted as a righteous daughter.

This was the last imperial edict of Empress Minglie before her death, and it was also her last wish, which had been recited by Lian Fang, Emperor Chengde couldn't refuse it, so he had to agree.

At this point, Chen Ying can no longer hide her name, no longer need to be frightened, and can live in this world frankly.

This was the last thing Empress Minglie did.

-

Yan Xiuqing came back a month and a half later.

When she left, she only brought Zhang Dongfeng with her, but when she came back, there was another person beside her.

It was a girl, her eyebrows and eyes were a little charming, but she was a little weak because of the cold temperament of the wind and frost sword, and she introduced herself to Yan Huaiyin generously: "Xu Jiao."

Yan Huaiyin nodded, and caught Yan Xiuqing who was rushing towards her.

The hug broke at the touch of a touch, but Yan Xiuqing felt that he was much thinner than when she left.

"Let's go back first." Yan Huaiyin patted her head, and was a little happy to see that she was safe and sound, so he rolled his eyes, "There is something you like to eat."

Yan Xiuqing obediently followed behind him, Xu Jiao stood shoulder to shoulder with her, and said in a low voice, "I have never seen a man who is more beautiful than your brother."

She grew up in the frontier, and she didn't have any feelings for the prince and prince, but she thought Yan Huaiyin was good-looking.

After saying this, she thought for a while, and then said, "It's just too thin."

Xiao Rubi's death didn't seem to have affected Yan Huaiyin at all. Everyone looked at him, and they could still see a calm and reliable him.

In this way, he is convincing and can calm people's hearts.

Yan Huaiyin smiled happily and had dinner with Yan Xiuqing and Xu Jiao.

He learned that Xu Jiao was the leader who formed the women's army in northern Xinjiang to fight against the Turks.

Xu Jiao only mentioned it, Yan Huaiyin didn't ask any more detailed questions, but ordered people to treat the female general well.

All his smiles were exhausted during the dinner, and after going to bed at night, Yan Huaiyin leaned tiredly in Jiang Lian's arms, not wanting to say anything.

Jiang Lian remained silent, his hand brushed past his ear and neck, and finally landed on his wrist, holding his wrist.

He measured it and found that he was a little thinner than a few days ago.

He hugged Yan Huaiyin these days, but he couldn't sleep well, and woke up in the middle of the night, Jiang Lian subconsciously pressed Yan Huaiyin's cheek.

Yan Huaiyin breathed lightly, sometimes Jiang Lian couldn't hear his breathing for the first time, and only felt his heart stop for a moment, and only when he felt someone sleeping peacefully in his arms would he feel relieved a little.

Yan Huaiyin felt light, but he could sleep more comfortably in his arms, and he wouldn't wake up even after he was playing with him. He seemed to know Jiang Lian's uneasiness. Often at this time, he would put his chin on his neck and gently rub against his neck. rub.

He likes this, it's a habit they cultivated during countless hugs, when Jiang Lian is rubbed by him, it's like being brushed by a cat, he doesn't like cats, but prefers Yan Huaiyin's softness.

This is probably the meaning of the person next to the pillow.

Let go of his hands from his wrists, and Jiang Lian grabbed his waist again. After taking the measurement, a chill appeared in his heart.

It was not easy, and after painstaking efforts to raise some meat, after learning about Xiao Rubi's news, they all went away in such a silent manner.

From watching Yan Wanqing die to watching Xiao Rubi die, Yan Huaiyin didn't say anything, but Jiang Lian knew it was his heart knot.

He can't keep the people he wants to keep.

"Tonight, I only picked up seven chopsticks of vegetables and drank half a bowl of soup." Jiang Lian rubbed his cheeks, "Are you full?"

Yan Huaiyin raised her eyes to look at him in his arms: "Do you think I'm disgusting?"

Jiang Lian kissed his temple: "I love you clingy."

Yan Huaiyin didn't answer, Jiang Lian just played with his fingers.The two of them just didn't speak, but they didn't show embarrassment.

I don't know how long it took, when Yan Huaiyin was buried in his arms and was about to fall asleep, he heard him say: "I bought a house in Jiangnan."

Yan Huaiyin replied in a daze.

"Jiangnan raises people," Jiang Lian stroked his cheek, "After the matter is over, let's go to Jiangnan to live for a while. I heard that there is a doctor with excellent medical skills living in Jiangnan. He doesn't want to go out of Jiangnan, so we will go to Jiangnan to find He looks."

Yan Huaiyin did not speak.

"Your body is difficult to cure, and I will cure it when you come back," Jiang Lian rubbed his hair, "You have to try no matter how difficult it is, Ayan, it's useless for you to be coquettish and beg for mercy, I can't indulge you You spoil yourself like this, you are stabbing me in the heart."

Jiang Lian was tall, and Yan Huaiyin stepped on his calf.He hummed in a low voice, and said leisurely for a while, "You can also live in Jiangnan for a long time."

Jiang Lian suddenly looked down at him.

"I don't have any obsession with that thing." Yan Huaiyin was a little sleepy, and his voice was soft, "If it can be stabilized, Nanyanghou and Liu Qingyun have been eliminated, and the next thing will be easy."

Jiang Lian's hand made him itchy, and Yan Huaiyin rubbed it: "I have already taught Xiuqing what should be taught."

Jiang Lian's hand on his shoulder tightened.

"The two of us won't have children, and Xiuqing already has ambitions," Yan Huaiyin found a comfortable posture, "The only barrier that can trap her is a woman's body, but if she is excellent and understands Once the confinement of the woman's body is broken through the art of the emperor, she will be a great emperor."

"This is her chance, a chance that Shengshi will not have."

Jiang Lian was silent for a long time, then smiled awkwardly, went to rub Yan Huaiyin, rubbed him into a mess in his arms, didn't say anything else, but asked: "Will you give birth to me?"

Yan Huaiyin couldn't help being rubbed by him, and responded vaguely to his joke, "Well, okay, I'll give you a baby."

"Not tonight," Yan Huaiyin patted his head, stopping his eagerness to try, "I will give birth again in a while."

Jiang Lian's arm went past him to get the small scissors with arrow wicks on the bedside. Yan Huaiyin nestled in his arms, feeling a strand of her hair being picked up by Jiang Lian.

Jiang Lian cut off that strand of hair, and cut off another strand of her own hair. Yan Huaiyin watched quietly, watching his slender fingers braid the two strands of hair into one strand.

seamless.

"Tie hair as a husband and wife, there is no doubt about love and affection," Jiang Lian pressed the hair under the pillow, and went to kiss Yan Huaiyin, his lips rubbed from the end of his eyes to his thin eyelids, and his voice disappeared in the kiss, "Ayan, Go to Jiangnan and live healthy."

When Yan Huaiyin woke up the next day, her surroundings were empty.

Jiang Lian wasn't around, so he didn't take it seriously at first.

But at noon, Jiang Lian didn't come back.

Yan Huaiyin and Liu Shangqing were sitting in the side hall discussing matters, feeling more and more uneasy for some reason, they raised their eyes to the sky outside, and saw that the sky was very gloomy, and it seemed that it was going to rain heavily.

Liu Shangqing was still talking about the people coming to deliver food, Yan Huaiyin suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and listened carefully to him.

For more than a month, his identity has spread throughout the surrounding towns of Chaohua City. Liu Shangqing wrote eulogies and proclamations, and the actions of the former prince and the Heyu Army once again spread to the eyes and ears of the people.

As a result, people came to deliver food to them one after another, and Liu Shangqing made a big publicity about it, and Yan Huaiyin's reputation reached its peak.

If the water is turbid, the fish will be trapped, and if the law is harsh, the people will be in chaos.

Now that there is a choice, the disadvantages of Emperor Chengde's tyrannical government are gradually revealed, and many officials from Chaohua City come to join Yan Huaiyin with their families.

Yan Huaiyin received everyone, good or bad.

The reputation has been accumulated to a certain level, and it is time to use it next, Yan Huaiyin and Liu Shangqing were chatting, and when they came back to God, it was already raining outside the house.

The rain came fast and long, and the rain poured down from the sky, messing up the mountains and forests.

Yan Huaiyin still held an umbrella in person, and went to pick up a family of officials who ran out from Chaohua City at noon.

The several towns around Chaohua City have all been controlled by the Heyu Army, and the people gradually have a place to live. Yan Huaiyin personally arranged the residence and asked Qi Yu to take them to settle down.

He watched people go away, and when he looked back, he saw a figure.

Yan Huaiyin stopped him.

Sun Chi was stopped in the heavy rain and wanted to kneel down to salute him, but Yan Huaiyin stopped him: "No need to kneel, I just asked you something."

His eyebrows and eyes could not be seen clearly in the heavy rain: "Where is your master, did you tell you where he went?"

Zhao Huan's army set off a month ago and slowly moved towards Chaohua City. It might arrive in half a month, and the whereabouts of the Tiger Talisman have still not been found.

After Sun Chi was rescued from Chaohua City, he led the people from Dongchang to take charge of this matter. He was so busy every day that he didn't touch the ground. After Yan Huaiyin asked him, he felt that he shouldn't ask him.

If Jiang Lian didn't tell him, Sun Chi wouldn't know where he went.

Unexpectedly, Sun Chi knelt down directly.

He lowered his head, as if he didn't dare to look at Yan Huaiyin, his voice was suppressed by the heavy rain and he couldn't get up: "Your Highness, Liu Qingyun sent a letter to me yesterday, but was stopped by the master."

His voice was smashed into puddles with the heavy rain, Yan Huaiyin clenched the handle of the umbrella tightly, but still said softly: "Well, continue talking."

"The letter seems to contain news about the Tiger Talisman. After reading the letter, the master said that he would go to the city." Sun Chi lowered his head again.

"Your Highness, the master has already entered Chaohua City at this time."
