Chapter 616 Li Nuo spends the night in the Empress’s palace! Hetui is so shameless!
Although it is summer, the temperature in the capital of Dayin Dynasty and the surrounding areas has dropped significantly. The season of high sky and white moon has arrived early, blowing away the stuffy hot wind and bringing a hint of coolness.
Even traveling a further three hundred miles north, there is no need to be surprised to see heavy snow falling.
The Dayin Dynasty occupies nine of the thirteen states in the world, with a territory of more than 100,000 miles. The land is vast and rich in resources. Maybe the climate in the south of the Yangtze River is pleasant, but when you go to the north, it is not uncommon to freeze in an instant when you urinate.
Early August.
A team of envoys set out from the west gate of Luoyang, crossed the Yangtze River, passed Chang'an, and then headed northwest.
There are only fifty guards in the team, but they are all elite warriors selected from the Dragon Scale Army, one of the emperor's four personal guards.
The envoy who was sent to the northwest prairie this time was a bit too young. He was actually a scholar in his twenties.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, this is a typical hot-blooded young man who talks a lot but doesn't do anything well. But among this group of envoys, including the guard commander of [Fourth Level Martial Arts Realm], no one dared to look down upon this envoy!
This is Prime Minister Cui’s grandson!
Cui's future heir!
The Tanhua Lang of Dayin Dynasty!
The first person who has good roots and is popular!
This mission to Xirong, if we can perfectly complete the tasks assigned by the court, it will be a very exciting resume!
By then, it will surely reach great heights!
Therefore, the young officials in the court were envious.
For more than half a month, Li Nuo has been traveling back and forth between Chang'an and Luoyang.
The envoys from various ethnic groups who came to see him before have also left.
During this period, Li Nuo and the Shark Queen Ling Cai'er only met briefly. Especially when he saw that the Shark Queen looked at him in a way that seemed a little wrong, Li Nuo gave up decisively. of several meetings!
His intuition told him that this woman had evil intentions towards him and had bad intentions that she shouldn't have!
Ahem...
They are all men with families, and they have several confidantes, so how can they go out and have random hookups?
He is definitely not such a carefree person!
The saying that domestic flowers are no more fragrant than wild flowers does not apply to him at all.
However, he never dreamed that his wife and Lingcai'er had already reached an agreement...
Which man in the world, especially a man in a high position, does not have three wives and four concubines?
What's more, Li Zian is still the future co-owner of the world!
And as the wife of such an indomitable and heroic man, how could Ye Qingyu be by his side if she didn't even have such a big heart?
What's more, the vast territory of the East China Sea, which far exceeds the territory of Dayin, has interests that far exceed ordinary people's imagination, and are big enough to make people take risks.
Ling Cai'er returned with [Ice Crystal] to clear the sea of demonic energy and restore the clarity of the East China Sea. She has great righteousness in her hands. Although there are still several very powerful enemies, her unification of the East China Sea is the general trend.
Therefore, without this layer of "husband and wife" relationship, she would not be at ease.
Well...it would be best if Lingcai'er could give birth to a baby boy for her husband. Then, he can inherit the East China Sea and become the king of the East China Sea!
so.
As an extremely good man, Li Nuo was clearly arranged by his wife without realizing it.
This day.
The envoys sent to Xirong have been away for seven days.
Li Nuo discussed state affairs with the empress in Luoyang's palace.
"Are you so confident in Cui Liyan?"
The empress, who was dressed in harem uniform, was half lying on the bed and yawned lazily. Perhaps her movements were a little too big, and her shoulder straps slipped off, revealing her fragrant shoulders as white as gelatin.
The palace maid serving beside him was not surprised at all.
Their empress behaved in a dignified manner when summoning ministers in the Imperial Study Room, but in front of Grand Master Dayin, she behaved as she pleased. Not to mention that the place of summoning was changed to the palace, and the clothes she wore were also very casual...
"This kid is very arrogant. It will be good for him to go to the northwest to see the world. Regardless of whether he succeeds or not, he will still have me."
Li Nuo said without squinting.
Well, he stared at Qingyang's slipping ribbon without moving an inch.
"Then when are you leaving?"
The empress yawned again, her phoenix eyes slightly blurred.
This scene in the afternoon really makes people feel sleepy.
"I came to see you this time just to say goodbye to you."
Li Nuo smiled.
In recent months, the empress has also demonstrated her ability to govern the country, using both hard and soft methods.
In important positions, the steady old ministers who were idle at home were recalled.
And in positions that needed to be sharpened, some poor men were promoted.
As for the young officials who had been forcibly promoted by Emperor Jingshun before, Li Lianyue slowly spread them out to various prefectures and counties in a gentle and silent way, and also said with a good name: If you want to be in charge of the central government, Must have experience in local governance.
"I heard that the King of Xirong is very rebellious, and according to reports from spies, there are witches and wizards in Xirong's military tents."
The empress reminded.
She didn't want her lover to die in Xirong.
"The Witch Clan has nothing to fear, and it can't hurt me."
Li Nuo looked confident of winning.
"The Witch Clan is determined to destroy me in the Central Plains. You are our God of War. Once you are alone, I'm afraid they will try their best to assassinate you."
The empress shook her head and said, "Although you have an invincible golden body to protect you, a tiger can't stop a pack of wolves. What's more, the methods of the witch clan are also unpredictable. The dream-entrance method of the third-level witch is hard to guard against, so don't be careless. "
Li Nuo smiled and said: "The Wu clan will imprison me at most, but they will never kill me."
"Huh? What news did you get?"
The empress was slightly curious. Although she knew that Lang held a [Qingfeng Tower] in his hand, the imperial court's intelligence organization was no worse than the [Qingfeng Tower]. It is even better than [Qingfeng Tower] in collecting intelligence from all races and countries.
She knew very well that the Wu clan was not that easy to deal with.
Two generations of emperors practiced sorcery. Wasn't it possible that they were not bewitched and instigated by the witch clan?
Li Nuo sighed and said, "I won't hide it from you either. My relationship with the Wu Clan is very complicated."
"How complicated is it?"
The empress blinked.
I wasn't sleepy anymore and was very interested.
Li Nuo revealed the truth and said: "There is a great shaman in Wushan named Li Tiancheng."
"Li Tiancheng? What kind of witch is this?"
the empress asked.
Each of the twelve great witches of the witch clan is very mysterious. Even most of them only know their nicknames but not their real names.
"Zhu Jiuyin's Heavenly Dragon!"
Li Nuo said calmly.
"Second level of witchcraft, Tianlong Great Witch! Rumor has it that he has the ability to reverse time."
The empress nodded, understanding that this was the master of the Zhulong Palace west of Wushan Holy Land, but how could her lover know his real name?
"Well, he's my father."
Li Nuo said truthfully.
"What!"
Qingyang suddenly sat up straight, his eyes filled with surprise.
Could it be that the blood of a witch flows in the body of my lover?
If this is really the case, then things will be very serious!
She is the empress. If the blood of the prince she gives birth to is impure, how can she succeed to the throne?
Dayin would never accept a man with the blood of a great witch as her husband!
"You guys all go out. If anyone dares to reveal anything about today's events, don't blame me for being rude!"
The empress narrowed her eyes and her voice became very cold.
The maids knew this was something they should not hear, and left in a hurry.
Of course, it was also a case of amnesty.
You know, such Xin Mi would have been killed and silenced by other kings long ago.
"Don't get excited."
Li Nuo didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He didn't know that this woman's reaction was so strong.
"How can I not be excited? Tell me, what is going on!"
The empress gritted her teeth and said.
"Don't worry, my blood is very pure and I am a true Yuzhou native!"
Li Nuo smiled.
The empress felt a little relieved, and then rolled her eyes: "Tell me, what's going on."
"My father suddenly disappeared when I was ten years old. Later I found out that he was bewitched by a blind man and went to the territory of the witch clan. What is unbelievable is that he practiced witchcraft and inherited the skills of the ancient witch Zhu Jiuyin. Will finally became the great witch of the witch clan!"
"Your father..."
The empress suddenly felt sad for her lover.
With such an unreliable father, how did Li Lang survive as a child?
Perhaps, I still know too little about Li Lang.
We only see the majestic and majestic side of others, but rarely understand the loneliness and loneliness behind others.
She blamed herself and felt ashamed.
"Okay, just sit in Luoyang and watch how I kill everyone in the northwest."
Li Nuo seemed to sense that the woman's mood had become depressed, so he winked and deliberately pretended to be a stinker to make her happy.
The empress chuckled, rolled her eyes coquettishly, and felt much better.
How could she not love such a considerate man?
soon.
Her eyes became blurred, a slight blush appeared on her face, and a trace of charming aura slowly spread...
When Li Nuo saw this, he didn't know what was going on.
When he and his wife were affectionate, she had this charming look that was ready for you to pick and choose.
only……
After all, he and Li Lianyue were not married.
Since Li Lianyue ascended the throne, although the two of them have often been together, they have maintained the last bit of reason and restraint and have not gone beyond the realm of thunder.
Although the two had already had a close relationship, it was to save lives.
Just now!
The mood and atmosphere have reached this point. If you still refuse, it will look like a beast.
"Li Lang..."
In the thick of love, Li Lianyue's eyes were as charming as silk and she called softly.
Li Nuo couldn't bear to refuse.
After all, she is her own woman. It doesn’t matter whether she eats early or late, so why not eat early and enjoy it early?
So, this time, Li Nuo did not escape anymore and left all Liu Xiahui and his like behind.
When he hugged the empress' body, Li Nuo discovered that this woman's delicate body was hot but very stiff.
His eyes were even more tightly closed.
Needless to say, this chick has the heart to be intimate, but lacks experience.
So, Li Nuo gently touched the empress's back, letting her relax slowly.
The two of them cuddled together, admiring the flowers in the garden and the moon in the sky.
"Li Lang, look, are those Altair and Vega?"
After all, Li Lianyue was still just a woman in her early twenties. After completely putting aside her identity, she regained her innocent temperament.
"probably."
Li Nuo's face looked a little unnatural.
"They only meet once a year. The Queen Mother is so cruel."
Li Lianyue sighed.
"Uh-huh."
A fight started before Li Nuo's eyes.
I really can't stand it any longer.
"Li Lang, how about we never be separated for the rest of our lives?"
"Holding my son's hand, I will grow old together with you."
"Li Lang, please write another poem for me..."
At this moment, Li Nuo leaned directly on Li Lianyue's shoulder and fell asleep.
The empress shook her head helplessly and smiled.
Whatever.
Seeing how hard you have worked, I will let you go tonight.
This night...
Li Lianyue felt unprecedented satisfaction.
It turns out that being a woman is such a blessing.
The person next to the pillow is asleep.
But she couldn't sleep.
She gently touched her belly.
She thought a lot.
Thinking about the future.
Thinking of children...
At this moment, she was undoubtedly the happiest woman in the world.
The next day.
When she woke up in a daze, the person beside her pillow was long gone, leaving only a letter.
To be precise.
is a poem.
A love poem.
A love poem that fascinated her.
A love poem that belongs only to her.
so……
Li Nuo still kept her words in mind last night!
She showed tenderness in her eyes and murmured -
"The thin clouds make tricks, the flying stars spread hatred, the silver man is far away in darkness, the golden wind and jade dew meet, and they win over countless people in the world."
"Tender love is like water, good times are like dreams, and we can't bear to look at the Magpie Bridge on our way home! If our love lasts for a long time, how can we stay together day and night?"
Li Lang's departure can be as short as half a month or as long as three to five months. How can he understand his lovesickness after such a long time?
This is also what worries her the most.
Now after reading this poem, she understood.
The encounter between her and Li Lang was like the encounter between the golden wind and the rain and dew. It was better than countless others in the world. Compared with other people's love, they were already much better. What else is she dissatisfied with?
Therefore, if the love between two people lasts for a long time, how can it last day and night?
Missing and caring will not make the feelings fade away, but will make the love stronger.
The lover Li Lianyue cared about had already appeared at Yumen Pass.
In another three days, the mission will arrive at Yumen Pass, then take a rest and leave the pass again.
Li Nuo did not fly directly to the Qinghai grassland, but came to Yumen Pass first. Naturally, he wanted to experience this second most powerful pass in the world in person.
The customs here are really different from those in the Central Plains.
Not too much formality, more heroic.
It's not uncommon to see people eating big chunks of meat and drinking wine from large bowls, and there are also an endless stream of escort caravans.
In short, it can be said that there is gold everywhere.
Not to mention other things, just by bringing porcelain, tea, brocade and other items from the Central Plains to the market in Yumenguan for sale, you can earn three to five times the price difference.
If you work harder and pull it to the prairie, it will be ten times the profit!
The governor of Yumen Pass is named Le Junzi.
A man is like his name, a gentleman is like jade.
But he came from a poor family, so he was ostracized.
When King Yan was here before, everyone listened to King Yan.
Now that King Yan is gone, no one will take him seriously.
He was deeply marginalized, and the power of the prefect was almost eclipsed.
Who told him that there was no one in the court?
It is too difficult to stand out from a humble family.
But he was not discouraged, nor did he break the pot. Instead, they struggled to maintain their dignity and prevented salt, iron and other items from Dayin from being smuggled to the prairie.
