The emperor did not hide Lie Chang'an's intention to hand over the military power to him if he could defeat Jing Guo this time and return triumphantly, and even intended to release the news to test the reaction of the ministers of the court.

The ministers of the DPRK and China have no objection to this, and the strength of General Chang'an is obvious to all, not to mention that he is now not only a big celebrity in front of the emperor, but also married the emperor's favorite princess Danqing, the emperor appreciates and promotes him so much, and it is understandable that he decided to hand over the military power to him.

Moreover, the premise of the emperor's move is that General Chang'an must win a great victory over Jing and return triumphantly, so the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty naturally have no opinions, first surrender to the Khitan, and then if they can subdue Jing again, they will hold the military power to command the three armies with this great military exploit, and the civil and military officials will not be dissatisfied.

The emperor gave Lie Chang'an three days to rectify and set off, and Lie Chang'an first resigned to the prince.

In the study room of the East Palace, the prince sat at the desk, looking at Lie Chang'an standing in front of him, the two of them were in a heavy mood and relatively speechless.

"Ugh."

The crown prince couldn't help but sigh first, "Actually, the moment you decided to kill Zhou Siyuan, you already foresaw today's ending." ”

Lie Chang'an's ink-colored eyes were as calm as water, and he bowed slightly, "Yes, in fact, no matter whether Wei Chen kills Zhou Siyuan or not, the apparent peace and friendship between the Li Dynasty and Jing State will not last long." Jing Guo has been preparing to move for a long time, and this time it is just an opportunity for them to raise troops to attack. ”

The prince nodded in agreement, "I have thought of this too." Jing Guo has been clearly separated from other countries over the years, and there has never been a war, just to recuperate, and then hit with one blow. This time, they're going to take our Li Dynasty first. ”

Lie Changan tugged at the corners of his mouth, his tone was indifferent but revealing an undoubted domineering, "It's not certain who will take whom." ”

The prince laughed, admiring his attitude of slanting at the world and being invincible.

"This time you led the troops to the battle, I have nothing to say, I believe in you, you also have to take care of yourself and return safely."

Lie Changan replied, "Your Highness Xie, Weichen will live up to expectations and will return triumphantly." ”

The crown prince bowed his head and sighed when he thought of something, "Do you know this news?" ”

Lie Changan lowered his eyes, his expression was gloomy, and his thin lips pursed slightly, "I haven't told her yet." ”

The prince couldn't help but sigh again, "She must not be able to accept it, and she will inevitably cry." ”

Lie Changan lowered his eyes and was silent, did not answer the prince, and never dared to tell her because he was afraid that she would cry.

As soon as she cried, he couldn't stand it.

But it's a soft-hearted mess, but I still have to go, which is the saddest.

Lie Changan raised his hand and looked at the crown prince, and his tone was solemn, "In the next period of time, I will ask His Royal Highness the prince to take care of her." ”

"What did you say? She is my sister, and I will naturally do my best to take care of her, you can rest assured. ”

Lie Changan was naturally relieved about the prince's words, and because of this, he was more or less down-to-earth in his heart.

Lie Changan didn't say anything more, and then gave up.

After leaving the study, I met Yu Yang, who had been waiting for a long time, in the courtyard.

Lie Changan couldn't ignore it, but he didn't plan to go up to greet him, so he bowed and took a detour.

"Lie Chang'an."

Yu Yang stopped him.

Lie Chang'an's figure froze and did not look back.

Yu Yang naturally heard the rumors in the palace, and he had already heard about the emperor's plan to hand over the military power to him if Lie Chang'an returned triumphantly this time.

Yu Yang's face was calm, and he only looked at Lie Changan and said, "If you return triumphantly this time, I will also tell you the secrets I promised before that are related to you and the future of your hometown." ”

Lie Changan was stunned, he didn't expect her to say this, and turned his head to look at her.

But after Yu Yang said this, he didn't look at him again, and turned around and went in.

In the courtyard, the prince was standing on the steps, a little far away, and he didn't hear what they were saying, but the prince thought that she had waited so long, she should just say to Lie Chang'an, 'Take care, you must come back safely' and other caring words.

Yu Yang passed by the steps and also saw the prince.

Her steps paused slightly, her cold eyes looked at the prince, her face was unwavering, she only bowed slightly, and then did not turn back in the direction of Bing Qingyuan.

The prince's hands, hidden under his wide sleeves, slowly clenched into fists.

Since that outright falling out, they haven't spoken to each other again.

Even if she looks down and doesn't look up, she will always be like this, she will leave after the salute politely and distantly, and she will not even give him superfluous glances and contact.

Even if the day of his wedding with Wang Yanxi is getting closer and closer, she has never been indifferent, her heart is like water, and she doesn't care.

She really managed to be independent of him.

The prince bowed his head and smiled bitterly.
