Jielan let go of Ning Lu's hand, and still faced the ministers without retreating, she walked to Bai Bing's side, facing Bai Shangshu directly, and only said: "Bai Shangshu said that this decree was made by the ancestors, so there must be no mistake, so all the words or some behaviors of the palace and even my mother during her reign were wrong, and they were also opposed by the ministers, so for the people of later generations, I and the queen mother have also become ancestors, is it based on this, and later generations can also say that we are not at fault?" Bai Shangshu, when the ancestor created the Blood Ying Kingdom, although he collected the wisdom of his life to formulate this decree, but the wisdom of people must be limited, otherwise why would the ancestor let so many courtiers assist him, so the decree is naturally incomplete, and Bai Shangshu, as the secretary of the criminal department, the person in charge of the law, what you do should not just act according to the order, but learn to change the law in time according to the situation, so that the law can be integrated with the times, so that the world can be peaceful, Bai Shangshu should not be lazy and slack, The fact that the laws and regulations are not revised with great effort on the grounds of abiding by the ancestral decree is not to be underestimated, because this decree has a small bearing on the lives of the people and a great concern for the glory and disgrace of the country. ”

Bai Bing was told by Jielan that there was no room to talk back, he originally took the initiative, but now he became passive, and was also reprimanded by Princess Jielan, and what she said was reasonable, even if he refuted, he didn't know where to refute, his face was flushed, he thought for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "The minister is guilty, please punish Her Royal Highness the princess!" ”

Seeing that Bai Bing had nothing to say, Jielan helped him up again, and said warmly: "This palace knows that Bai Shangshu has always been an impartial deacon, so you also respect Shangshu, and this palace may be a little heavier, but this palace hopes that Bai Shangshu can understand the hard work of this palace, and also hopes that this palace can one day see a new tomorrow from Bai Shangshu." ”

was first reprimanded by Princess Jielan, and now she has been praised by Princess Jielan, Bai Shangshu admires Jielan's majesty and bearing, among the princes and nobles, who can be both awe-inspiring and admirable? He bowed down and thanked him, and said, "The minister should devote himself to revising the decree, so as not to waste the trust of the princess." ”

Jielan nodded, smiled slightly, and only said: "Bai Shangshu doesn't have to be modest, you and Shaojun are both in charge of the deed, if you have any questions, you can also discuss with Shaojun, if major decisions cannot be decided, you can consult with the ministers in the court, so that the law is called the law, and the ministers of the court have any suggestions for the law, they can also be put forward in the future for the ministers to discuss, if they think it is feasible, they will be included in the law, what opinions can the other courtiers have?" ”

The ministers were somewhat distressed by some of the confinements of the decree, but now that they heard the Holy Word say this, they were very much in favor of it in their hearts, and since the matter of amending the decree would not be changed, they no longer refuted it, but knelt down and replied: "The ministers obey the order! ”

Jielan saw that this matter was actually supported by the ministers, and she was quite happy in her heart, she only said: "Other laws to be changed will not be mentioned for the time being, but let Ning Lu go to Chiyan City, it is an urgent matter, the palace must make this decision, and I also hope that the ministers will not miss the national affairs with some stubborn thoughts, if the ministers are meaningless, then retreat from the court, this evening will be practiced for Ning Lu, I hope the ministers will come to see each other." ”

The ministers were silent and didn't dare to respond, and Lord Zaifu thought about it for a long time, and felt that this kind of time was indeed not the time to be bound by personal etiquette, so he responded first: "The princess is thoughtful, and the ministers should agree." When the other courtiers saw Zaifu's approval, they all knelt down and responded.

Seeing the promise of the ministers, Jielan's heart was cheerful, and she also showed a long-lost smile, she turned her head sideways, held Ning Lu's hand, and smiled at her, as if to tell her that what she promised her was finally done.

And Ning Lu is grateful, her eyes are moist, if she doesn't try her best to control her tears, I'm afraid she will cry here, she never thought that Jielan would take such a big risk to fight with the ministers for her own happiness, if she angered these ministers, it is very likely that Jielan will be executed for the crime of disobeying the ancestors, this affection is so rare for her.

She grew up alone in the mountains since she was a child, and lost her parents since she was a child, she grew up alone, and she never received anyone's love, and Xuan Ming, who has always been in love, has others in her heart in the end, and she only pities her, so she has not enjoyed a person who thinks about her like this, Ning Lu's gratitude to Jielan is indescribable, so she has to remember it deeply in her heart, and she will give it back in the future.

After retreating from the court, Jielan pulled Ning Lu to the side hall, because the royal court has not fully recovered because of civil strife, so there are broken walls everywhere, but the side hall is intact, she and Ning Lu and Qing Zhan entered the side hall, then sat in front of the jade case, wrote a letter with a pen, stamped the princess's seal, sealed the document in the letter paper, handed it to Ning Lu, and said: "After you arrived in Chiyan City, give this document to the city lord of Xuanming, and he will know that I sent you there, and the document also mentions the matter of Heimu County, After you go, you need to help him always be on guard against evil spirits, and if there is a war, quickly send a message to inform the royal court, do you know? ”

Ning Lu took the paperwork, nodded, and thanked Jielan: "Thank you princess for helping me like this, Ning Lu really doesn't know how to repay you." ”

Jielan held her hands and said, "This time, I can only let you go to Chiyan City because of the war, firstly, to defend Chiyan City, and secondly, to reunite you and Xuanming, have you forgotten his oath to you?" I would never marry any woman in this life, and I don't want this friend of mine to be lonely for the rest of my life. ”

Ning Lu's cheeks turned crimson when she was said, she lowered her head, and only said: "He only said that because he knew that my blood contained his blood, and if he married a woman next to him, it would make my blood muddy and lose my soul, so he..."

Before she could finish speaking, Jielan reached out to cover her mouth and said, "What is a person's mind, you have to ask him in person to know, don't always speculate here alone, doing so will only misunderstand him and hurt yourself, you know?" ”

Ning Lu listened to Jielan's words, and felt quite emotional in her heart, she nodded and agreed.

Qing Zhan saw that Jielan was above the court, and she was able to deal with it easily, which can be said to make the courtiers completely respect her, which was quite unexpected, and also made him feel that Jielan had matured so quickly and was surprised, he only said: "Now you really impress me, it seems that I have worked hard to bring you here from Shiluo Village but I have not done anything wrong, I believe that the Blood Ying Kingdom can really change because of you." ”

Jielan smiled playfully, deliberately teasing Qing Zhan, and only said, "I sent your fiancée to Chiyan City, are you really willing to do it?" I haven't consulted you about this matter, and you haven't spoken out in favor of or stopped in the main hall, but I don't know if the young monarch can resent me for doing this? She was originally teasing Qing Zhan and wanted to make fun of him, but as soon as Jielan said this, it made Ning Lu and Qing Zhan feel very embarrassed, Ning Lu turned her head sideways, not daring to look directly at Shaojun's eyes, after all, the person in front of her was still her fiancé, and what she had been thinking about in her heart was Xuan Ming, who was far away in Chiyan City, which was against the morality of love in German terms, so Ning Lu felt a little embarrassed no matter what.

And Qing Zhan saw that Jielan was so directly asked, and he also knew her intentions, he approached Jielan, leaned close to Jielan's ear, Jielan saw that he dared to approach him so closely in front of Ning Lu, and was about to retreat and leave in fear, but was grabbed by Qingzhan's arm, he smiled proudly and said: "Benjun likes your jealous appearance very much, very beautiful, very charming, Benjun's heart will not be taken away by anyone, because it has been held in the palm of your hand, and you can't escape." ”

Jielan blushed with shame, and was so busy that she broke free of Qing Zhan's hand, she peeked at Ning Lu on the side, and saw Ning Lu bowing her head as if she hadn't heard it, and she was even more shy in her heart, as if she had done something sorry, in order to hide her embarrassment, she was so busy taking a step back and reproached: "People like you Shaojun are just not serious, so until now, no woman is willing to follow you forever, if you continue like this, I'm afraid you can only be alone in this life." ”

Qing Zhan heard Jielan's words, although he knew that she was saying it recklessly to avoid embarrassment, but he still felt a little bitter in his heart, because the person he wanted to spend his life with was her, so he wouldn't look at other women's love or joy, only her joy and anger, sorrow and sorrow, he would always take it to heart.

"Really? If the person you love would rather be alone for the rest of your life, then you will naturally have no regrets. Qing Zhan made no secret of his love for Jielan, his purpose in doing this was not only to let Jielan understand his mind, but also to let Ning Lu understand that his heart was also different, and he dared to love the person he loved recklessly, so he hoped that Ning Lu would not feel burdened by the confinement of their marriage, and she could actually pursue her own happiness unscrupulously without feeling guilty.

Ning Lu was quite happy to see that Jielan and Qing Zhan were so close to each other, but when she thought that she was going to reunite with Xuan Ming, she couldn't suppress the joy in her heart, and she was looking forward to what the coming situation would be.

Jielan looked at the scorching light of Qing Zhan, she was a little timid in her heart, she snorted, blushed, and only said: "Okay, who told you this, this palace will not care what you think, now Ning Lu is about to leave the palace and go to Chiyan City, and after the maids and maids pack up, they will set off, and the young monarch will also come." ”

When she was on top of the main hall, Ning Lu didn't dare to say because of timidity, but now only Jielan and Shaojun were there, she was bolder, she held Jielan's hand and persuaded: "Thank you princess for sending her, but I think about it in three, I think that this time I go to Chiyan City, it is better not to let the minister and the princess send each other, otherwise the people from other cities and counties or let the people of Heimu County know, I am afraid that something will happen, so I decided to leave quietly with my clansmen, so that they will not be alarmed and let them be wary of Chiyan City." ”

Jielan also thought about it at first, but she was afraid of wronging Ning Lu, but now that she proposed it herself, she didn't object, so she nodded, and only said: "Since this is the case, then I and Shaojun will go to see each other, this is also my intention, when you are on the road, you must be more careful, if there is anything, also report to Wang Cheng in time, you know?" ”

Ning Lu nodded, a few people did not say much, left the dormitory together, and went to the resting place of the Shenlu clan, Jielan gave some words of encouragement to these women of the Shenlu clan, hoping that they could obey Ning Lu and Xuan Ming in Chiyan City, and pay a lot of effort for Chiyan City, the women in the clan were personally comforted by the princess, and they all felt honored, and they all unanimously applauded, and then, they simply prepared their luggage, Jielan and Shaojun and Split Bo personally sent them out of Pingdu, and did not let the hundred officials come out to see them off, and after they came out of Pingdu, Ning Lu thought about what happened after that, and when she met Jielan next time, she didn't know when, she said goodbye with tears, and then got on her mount and flew in the direction of Chiyan City with her clansmen.

Watching their figures gradually disappear in the white clouds, watching Ning Lu seem to be running towards a new tribulation, and also running towards an unpredictable happiness, she also showed a smile in her heart, she sincerely hoped that Xuan Ming could treat her well, and also hoped that Chiyan City would be able to persevere in this upcoming holy war.

Because she didn't want to see anyone hurt, and she didn't want to see more people leave her side.

After sending away Ninglu and them, Jielan and Shaojun immediately returned to Wangcheng, and after returning to Wangcheng, Jielan immediately announced that General Qiu Zhen and Cao Sen, the secretary of the military department, came to discuss the military situation, and General Qiu Zhen went to the imperial study, and saw Jielan Shaojun, so he knelt down and kowtowed.

Jielan ordered them to get up, and then she took a map and unfolded it on the bookcase. This map is a map of the geographical distribution of the Blood Ying Kingdom, which indicates the location of the royal city and the three cities and four counties.

I saw that the royal city was in the middle, and Chiyan City was located in the south, Qing Zhou City was located in the southeast, and Heimu County was located in the southwest, close to Chiyan City, but there was a big mountain and a big river between these two cities and counties, so relatively speaking, the two cities and counties were separated by a relatively far distance, and Jin Zhaocheng was located in the west, the closest distance from the royal city, and the remaining Lanqi County, Chiluo County, and Zirui County were all located in the north of the royal city, and the three cities and four counties wrapped the royal city, making the royal city the core area.

Jielan pointed to the location of Heimu County, and only said: "This is Heimu County, when the palace was in Heimu County, I only found out that their demon team was about thousands of people, and I don't know how many people there are in their army, but judging from the weapons they built in the basement of the cemetery, I am afraid that there are no less than 500,000 troops, which is really a great threat to us, and the highest strength in the royal city is only 500,000, but because of the civil strife, there are a lot of injuries, General Qiu Zhen, how many troops are left in the royal city?" ”

Qiu Zhen also felt a little regretful, and replied: "At present, there are only 370,000 troops left, some of which died in the civil strife, and some of them are due to rebellion, according to the princess's wishes, if they want to go home, they will let them leave, so the current strength is inferior to Heimu County." ”

Jielan sighed and said: "Judging from the strength alone, they are already invincible, not to mention that they still have demons in their hands, although there are thousands of Divine Beast Corps led by Shaojun, but the strength of the Divine Beast Corps is probably a little passive compared to the power of this demon, so if we fight together, we will inevitably be at a disadvantage." ”
