Seeing this, he hurriedly sat up and looked at her without blinking.

At this time, she is completely girl-like, without her usual heroism, but she has added a bit of delicate beauty.

He watched steadily, greedily, and after a long time he pulled her into his arms contentedly, and said, "I can't help imagining what you will be like in a few years." ”

She asked softly, "How is it?"

He gave her a quick kiss on the lips and whispered, "It's the way I like it." ”

She understood, and shyly rested her head on his shoulder.

She was about to leave Akeno in four or five days, and she thought that it would be at least two years before the two of them had a chance to meet, so she couldn't help but raise her eyes and look at him steadily, wanting to keep his every word and smile firmly in her heart.

So, the four eyes were facing each other, their eyes were full of affection, and only each other was left in each other's eyes.

No amount of wind could attract their attention.

When it was getting dark, the two left the observation tower, and then said goodbye in front of the Imperial Garden Gate.

She trotted back. He watched her back leave.

How many times did he look at her back and walk away like this, and he felt that his whole heart was also going with her.

.....................

In the palace of Zhaoguo, Emperor Li Pei was having a meeting with his ministers.

Just now, he received a letter from the contestant from Akebono and learned that Akikuni had won the big competition, and he was so excited that he immediately gathered his ministers to share the joy and arrange what to do next.

Li Pei's eyes were full of joy, and the corners of his mouth were smiling, a proud look of spring breeze.

Jiang Chuanxiong let out a long sigh of relief.

His regrets in the last session have now been made up by Jiang Yuetang, and the guilt in his heart has disappeared.

Jiang Chuanxiong also felt a little unbelievable that Jiang Yuetang could win, so he couldn't help but make several guesses.

However, it was not long before he decided that he did not want to, after all, this result was not exactly what he had dreamed of? Moreover, even if the truth was not as it could be seen, it must not be announced to the public.

"Yueting has done a great job for Zhao Guo this time, and I will reward him when he returns. Li Pei said to Jiang Chuanxiong.

Jiang Chuanxiong hurriedly knelt down and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Li Pei replied to the contestants who were far away in Akebono on the same day.

After handing the letter to the messenger, everyone began to wait for the return of the contestants.

At that time, the contestants will come back with a contract for the cession of the city with the handprints of the emperors of each country, and then the Zhao Kingdom can send someone to enter the cessed city with this contract and take over its jurisdiction.

Such a moment is especially exciting for the king of a country.

Li Pei, who was full of joy, decided to go to the four new cities to see it in person at that time.

After learning of this decision, the ministers immediately objected, especially Jiang Chuanxiong, who knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, these new cities are all on the border line, and the inhabitants in them have not yet been tamed, and the danger is extremely high, so you should not go for the time being." ”

Since the creation of the "Ninth Five-Year Plan", the kings of various countries have driven the border residents to the hinterland of the country as soon as possible, so that there are generally only some people left in the border cities who refuse to leave their homeland even if they die, and most of these people are illiterate peasants from poor families. In this case, it would be extremely dangerous if Li Pei went to investigate.

Li Pei smiled and said, "I know that everyone cares about me, but I will bring the best brocade guards, so you don't have to worry." Then he said: "I have been in the palace for too long, and everything outside the palace walls on weekdays is told by Zhong Aiqing, such a monarch is not qualified, and I want to take this opportunity to go outside to have a look, and it will not be more than a month." ”

Then Li Pei said to Jiang Chuanxiong: "Jiang Aiqing, you have been the first assistant of the cabinet for more than 20 years, and you are very familiar with the affairs inside and outside the court, and you are loyal to me and the court, so I plan to have you act as the government of the court during the month of my tour, what do you think?"

Jiang Chuanxiong hurriedly knelt down again and said, "The minister is afraid, but I am afraid that I will not be able to handle this important task." ”

Li Pei waved his hand and said: "Jiang Aiqing is humble, Jiang Aiqing's ability and personality are clear, not to mention the recent national peace and security, I estimate that there should not be anything particularly tricky, besides, there are still fewer tricky things that you have dealt with in the past 20 years?"

The emperor was full of trust, and although Jiang Chuanxiong wanted to resign, there was no reason to refuse, so he had to accept it.

Li Pei smiled and said, "I asked Guo Aiqing (Guo Yifan, the secretary of the Criminal Department), Jun Aiqing (Jun Zipeng, the left capital of the Imperial Palace), Shangguan Aiqing (Shangguan Che, a scholar of the Cabinet University), and Gong Aiqing (Gong Yan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry) to assist you, and then your orders will be equivalent to my orders." ”

The five of them hurriedly knelt down and said in unison: "The minister obeys the order." ”

Li Pei then issued Jiang Chuanxiong a token engraved with a flying dragon, and each of the other four people issued a token engraved with a flying tiger.

And so it was decided.

When the players of the Dawn Kingdom come back, Li Pei will set off to inspect the new cities.

Jiang Chuanxiong carefully put the Flying Dragon Token into his pocket with trembling hands, and covered it with one hand before leaving the palace with the other ministers.

Outside the palace, several ministers came up to congratulate him.

Jiang Chuanxiong only felt that his responsibility was heavy at this time, so he didn't feel any happiness, so he hugged his fists at everyone and said, "It's all thanks to Your Majesty's trust and everyone's love." ”

With that, he hurriedly got into the carriage and left.

After settling down in the carriage, he began to think about what he was going to do for the next month.

Obviously, once the emperor leaves the capital, those ministers who are not very peaceful on weekdays will definitely take this opportunity to give Jiang Chuanxiong a dismount, and he must be careful. In addition, some people who are usually ambitious and want to do something will definitely take this opportunity to come to him, so that they can get convenience from him, and even if the emperor is held accountable later, they can easily shake the responsibility to him.

Jiang Chuanxiong closed his eyes, thinking that it would be better for him to meet less privately with the ministers in the next month.

Thinking like this, he had an idea, and his mood relaxed a little.

When Jiang Chuanxiong returned to Jiangfu, it was already dark.

Mrs. Tao has recently been suffering from rheumatism in her legs and has difficulty walking, and she is resting on the chair in the back of the room at this time, but today she has been eyelids since the morning, sometimes the upper eyelids are jumping, and the next time is the lower eyelids, which makes her heart go up and down, so she asked her subordinates to pay attention to the news of Jiang Chuanxiong's return, and let him report to her as soon as he sees Jiang Chuanxiong coming back.

No, Jiang Chuanxiong had just stepped into the house, and the next person trotted to report to Mrs. Tao.
