Chapter 71: Liu Yingjie

It was about to fall at night, and the next civil official who insisted on kneeling outside the imperial study, looking at his complexion, he couldn't hold it anymore.

Lu Chengye and Xiao Changqing walked out of the imperial study together, and he walked out one step ahead of Xiao Changqing, helped up the civil official who had been kneeling for nearly half a day, and asked Gao Lang to go to the chair to come out.

After the civil official took his seat, the whole person was empty, and he would faint at any time as soon as his eyes were closed, Xiao Changqing bent down and picked up the edict on the ground.

There was a space on it that was just enough to write her name, and the edict was slowly rolled up, and she walked to Lu Chengye's side.

"Your Majesty, the country cannot be without a queen for a day." Immediately afterward, she said exactly the same thing as the civil servants today.

This is just Xiao Changqing out of a trace of sympathy, this civil official is tired and tired, and he has been kneeling here for so long, just to let Lu Chengye marry a wife and establish a queen.

This sentence came out of the mouths of the civil officials, Lu Chengye didn't feel anything, but when it came out of Xiao Changqing's mouth, he felt extremely harsh, and his heart was also slightly stinged.

Looking at the edict handed over by Xiao Changqing, after Lu Chengye took it, he pondered for a long time, so long that it was completely dark, and the three people present looked at Lu Chengye.

Gao Lang looked puzzled, Xiao Changqing was still the same, just waiting for Lu Chengye to say something, and the civil official was excited.

"Gao Lang, what is the name of the daughter of the official secretary you said last time?" Nearly two teas passed, and the deepest struggle in Lu Chengye's eyes finally calmed down.

When he asked this sentence, he didn't look at Gao Lang, not the civil official, not Xiao Changqing on his side, but raised his head slightly and looked at the sky that had already darkened.

After dragging on for so long, after sitting on the throne, it was only today that he seemed to let go of some obsessions in his heart, and just because of what she said, he came to his senses.

"Back to the emperor, the daughter of the official department is named Chu Qin." Gao Lang can remember almost all the family backgrounds of civil and military officials, of course, sometimes there are some important things that he can't remember.

There was an inkstone on the ground, and there was a brush on the side of the inkstone, just at Lu Chengye's feet, he bent down to pick up the brush and opened the edict in his hand again.

The word 'Chu Qin' was written on the edict one by one, and then the edict was rolled up, handed it to Gao Lang, and instructed him to hand over the edict to Gonggong Li tomorrow to read out.

Gao Lang tried to calm himself down, took the edict handed by Lu Chengye, and kept glancing at Xiao Changqing, wanting to see if she had any reaction.

As he expected, Xiao Changqing was a piece of wood standing there, did she really not have the slightest heart for our emperor?

The civil official sitting there seemed to feel that the big stone in his heart had finally been put down, and he fainted directly.

"Changqing, stay and have dinner with me." He faced her and talked to her, still so soft, but she never knew that such softness was only given to her.

She would only respond with silence, and followed him to the Imperial Garden, where the sound of crickets could be heard around her, in this moment of silence.

The dinner was arranged under the gazebo in the imperial garden, and the palace maids who came with the dishes were obviously not surprised or curious at the deputy general Xiao who was sitting next to the emperor.

is even used to it, in the past ten years, this deputy general Xiao Changqing has spent fifteen days a month with dinner by the emperor's side.

Occasionally, I can see Vice General Xiao Changqing at lunch, but it is rare, and today is the first time since the emperor ascended the throne that the two of them sat together for dinner.

"Changqing, if the Qi Kingdom wants to attack the Xu Kingdom, you don't need to worry about it anymore, I will definitely defend the first ally of my Li Kingdom." Once again, I wanted Xiao Changqing to feel at ease, and Lu Chengye said this for the third time.

"I'm sorry for the people of Xuguo, thank the emperor!" As long as he is in this palace, Xiao Changqing will be like this, abide by the rules, and anything he says is so stiff.

"Ten years have passed, and you still don't want to open your heart to me... I'm a little disappointed. Obviously, Lu Chengye didn't notice that he had his own problems.

Xiao Changqing frowned very rarely, she felt a little ridiculous, shouldn't the premise of letting her open her heart be that he should also open her heart to her?!

"Your Majesty, I have always been a native of Xuguo, even if Xuguo has become an ally with Li Guo, you shouldn't let your guard down so much." That's not what she wanted to say at all.

But this is the palace, the palace of the Li country, he is the emperor of the Li country, she is a native of the Xu country, how can she question him.

"Sometimes, I really don't like you like this, Changqing, what kind of person can make you open your heart and make you treat you sincerely?" There are too many things happening today, and the real him hidden in his heart is about to be unable to hide.

The grievances that flashed in Xiao Changqing's eyes were so fast that she couldn't be caught by Lu Chengye, and she said expressionlessly: "Whoever treats me sincerely, Changqing himself will treat him sincerely." ”

But you Lu Chengye didn't treat me sincerely, in the past ten years, no matter how good you are to me with a gentle 'mask', I can clearly feel that the distance between us is constantly being widened.

Lu Chengye's left hand clenched into a fist, trying to calm the anger in his heart that was aroused by Xiao Changqing's words, it seems that what he has done in the past ten years is not enough to prove his sincerity.

The two of them silently ate a few mouthfuls of food, Gao Lang stood not far away with his brows furrowed, and he was still holding the edict of the queen in his hand.

Suddenly, Gao Lang fell into doubts, and asked about the emperor's care for Xiao Changqing in the past ten years, and his meticulous care and consideration for her, but Xiao Changqing completely denied it in one sentence.

Gao Lang plans to return home today and ask his wife if the women are mindful or if they women understand.

The next day, the edict was read out by Gonggong Li in the court, and the officials were so happy that their mouths were about to burst into laughter, and the ministers were full of congratulatory words.

General Zheng Yuan returned to the palace and told his wife about it, but his wife was very excited and asked him why the emperor would choose the daughter of the secretary of the ministry.

"Madam, this is the emperor's decision, we can only listen to it, why do you oppose the emperor so much to make the daughter of the secretary of the ministry as the queen?" I don't understand why my wife is more excited than those ministers in the court.

"I... Alas... Why do you men always like duplicity? Mrs. Zheng pushed away Zheng Yuan, who was holding her shoulders, and yelled at Zheng Yuan angrily.

Zheng Yuan, who was yelled at in a daze, couldn't understand why his wife yelled at him like this, he went down to the court on time today, and he didn't dare to say more greetings to other ministers on the way, and he was bent on going back to the house to accompany his wife.

"I'm really angry, come here, prepare the carriage, I'm going to Vice General Xiao!" Zheng Yuan didn't understand that his wife was inexplicably angry, even if he was angry, why did he have to go to his apprentice???
