March 3rd is a good day. Li Mu and Qingli held a wedding on the same day. Although they were just Mrs. Naru and not their real wife, because all parties involved were high-ranking officials and they were personally gifted by the emperor, the wedding was a rare and lively one.

Li Mu and Qingli were naturally made fun of by their colleagues, saying that they had been single for several years, and now they had two beautiful wives at the same time, so they could enjoy the blessing of being together, but they should not be too greedy! The two of them quickly replied modestly.

He said, "Everywhere, the emperor and all your lords love you so much, no matter how humble your birth is..." Everyone was busy fawning over you, "What do you say? Heroes always don't ask where they come from! The two of you have Princess An Guo's wise eyes and pearls, and you are the pillars of the country."

, Your Majesty's love is also an example for us to aspire to... A sword is given to a hero, and a hero is matched with a beauty! The two adults have contributed to the country for so many years, and of course they deserve some blessings now...' Li Mu, Qingcha's face was beaming with joy.

He was glowing, but he didn't know the flattery of these people. According to Luo Yunchang's plan, the emperor adapted to the situation at the Lantern Festival banquet, and finally married Zhong Li, the youngest daughter of the old general Zhong Shuo, to Li Mu as 'Mrs. Ru'.

General Jia Rui's eldest daughter Jia Min was Qingchao's "Mrs. Ru", and then the deputy general Shunzhong's sister Shunying was given as Li Mu's concubine, and Zhang Xinlan, the daughter of Zhang You, was given as Qingchao's concubine. Such a good thing

Pairs, great praise

Of course, there were also some other officials and generals who were given marriages at the same time, but most of them were civil and military officials, and the officials seemed to think that the emperor was afraid of cliques between civil and military officials, and intended to deepen the trust between the generals.

No one doubts that there is any other reason

Luo Yunchang and Li Mu knew the plan, but they didn't show any strange expressions on their faces. Luo Yunchang didn't even attend their wedding. She just asked someone to prepare a gift and sent it to her. However, she carried the gift on her back in the night.

The hustle and bustle reached another corner of the city - Meizhuang, which is currently the restricted area of ​​Qinglan, the eldest prince of Jiasuo.

Ever since Prince Qinglan was betrayed by his own people and forced to surrender to Yunbai, the pain accumulated from the hardships in the mountains for half a year suddenly broke out. Coupled with the discouragement and unwilling arrogance, the illness lasted for a long time.

It didn't heal, and later it turned into pneumonia. He lived alone in Meizhuang, with attendants, guards, and the imperial doctor sent by Emperor Yunbai Bai Shaotang to treat him. Apart from that, he saw no one else every day.

I was lying on the bed looking out the window. The snow began to melt, and then the plum blossoms began to wither... Just looking at this single scene every day made me feel depressed, and my condition never improved.

I didn’t eat dinner that day, I just drank a bowl of soup and medicine. I was staring out the window in a daze when I heard a commotion outside and then someone sang loudly at the door: "Princess An Guo has arrived!"

Prince Qinglan did not look back. He heard the sound of dragging clothes getting closer, then the sound of someone moving a stool, and then he felt a person sitting near the bed. Then Prince Qinglan turned around and looked towards the bed.

The person sitting on the soft bench next to him happened to have Luo Yunchang straightening his wide sleeves and raising his eyes, and their eyes met.

Luo Yunchang smiled lightly at Prince Qinglan: "Old friend, long time no see."

Prince Qinglan withdrew his gaze calmly and said flatly: "A charming smile probably refers to Princess An Guo's smile... A smile that captivates the city, and then a smile that captivates the country. Princess An Guo really doesn't need to go into battle to kill the enemy in person."

In response to Prince Qinglan's ridicule, Luo Yunchang lowered his head and pursed his lips with a smile: "Qinglan, is this your first sincere sentence since we met? Are you unwilling to lose to me? Or are you unwilling to lose to a woman?

Woolen cloth?"

"I am not willing to give in, and I am not willing to give in because I am an 'old friend'." But seeing that the woman in front of me today was dressed in a luxurious 'princess' costume, and because she was a 'princesses participating in politics' with an official rank, the accessories on her body were more solemn and formal. I remember it from afar.

More than ten years ago, every time I saw her, she was dressed in refreshing and elegant clothes, like a fresh wind... At that time, she was like Xiaojiabiyu, and he was a high-spirited royal family. But now, in royal clothes, she is noble and elegant

There is strength in him, but he is down and out, living on the sickbed...an old friend? He means only these two words to her. Does she know that he is sincere? Does she know how unwilling he is to lose in her hands?

Not only because of her pride, but also because she didn't regard him as a rival at all, and she didn't leave a place for him in her heart!

Luo Yunchang looked at the expression on Prince Qinglan's face, smiled slightly, turned to look at the untouched dinner on the small table next to him, and said lightly: "Prince Qinglan is arrogant by nature and does not want to be beaten.

The shame of the ban is so great that you plan to go on a hunger strike and commit suicide?"

Prince Qinglan glanced at Luo Yunchang: "Is it your intention or your cousin's to imprison me?"

Luo Yunchang's eyes turned back to Prince Qinglan's face, and his smile never left his lips: "What I mean... is to kill you to avoid future troubles. Only my cousin is so kind that he just says to imprison you."

Prince Qinglan's eyes shrank for a moment: "To avoid future troubles? Then do you plan to kill my relatives as well?"

Luo Yunchang's words and expression were very indifferent: "There is no rush, it depends on the situation, just like Nianhan who was struck by lightning, and if Jia Suo is not exterminated and can continue, I will let them merge with Yunbai like Prince Qinglan..."

I will relieve their pain.”

Prince Qinglan stared at Luo Yunchang's face and said nothing

Looking at the angry face of Prince Qinglan, Luo Yunchang had a faint smile on his lips. It was not pride, but a kind of fatalistic calmness: "It doesn't matter, I will accept your hatred... We are friends after all," he stretched out his hand

He picked up the still cold white porridge on the small table, took a spoonful of it and brought it to Prince Qinglan's mouth, "Here..."

Prince Qinglan, don’t start

Luo Yunchang smiled again and put the porridge bowl back on the small table nonchalantly.

"What are you here for today? To show off your victory?"

"No, capturing Jiasuo is not considered a victory. My goal is only Kui Yuhong."

"Then what are we? Burial gifts?"

"No, you are my help. Without Jia Suo, there would be no Yunbai today."

"Really, is this how you treat your allies?"

Luo Yunchang lowered his head and smiled softly: "If you were me, what would you do? Would you really share the world with your allies? You and I both know that is just an empty talk when both sides still have value.

The conflict will immediately turn to the other side... This is how the two neighboring countries get along with each other. Who doesn't harbor ambitions and always wait for opportunities to annex other countries? My fathers have been guarding the northwest border for hundreds of years. What do you think of me?

Maybe I don’t understand these truths. My original intention is to be Tu Kuida, but if I don’t take you, Jia Suo, into account, then wouldn’t there be no danger of the oriole behind me? Since ancient times, a king has become a king and a bandit has lost, and the power of the world must be divided over time... Anyway, I

I'm already ready to let go and start a big fight, so why not expand the situation a little more and do it for you, Jia Suo? If you succeed, you will be famous forever, if you fail, you will be infamy... In fact, no matter which one it is, I don't care.

"I can only destroy Kui Da's wish to kill Kui Yuhong." He raised his head and looked at Prince Qinglan's face calmly, "Qinglan, you are from a royal family, so you don't know how difficult it is to start something with nothing.

So the way I can take is to use everything I can use, and then simply destroy the obstacles and keep and gather the helpful ones. If I soften my heart, if I hesitate, then I will not be able to move towards my goal.

The goal is moving forward. I am here to tell you this today, not to explain anything to you... but that we are essentially the same people, and you should be the best able to understand what I do."

"What I regret most is that I didn't kill you outright when we were in the mountains."

"Even if you killed me at that time, nothing could be saved. What you should regret is that you met me on the grassland."

"Maybe……"

"That was your misfortune, but it was my good fortune. If it weren't for my old friendship with you, you would never have trusted me so much... I am what I am today, and I can become the Yunbai I am today. Qinglan, your help is absolutely indispensable, so

," Luo Yunchang looked into Prince Qinglan's eyes, "I'm here to thank you today."
