Before leaving, although Zhu Zhiye was too reluctant, the situation forced him to rush back to Beijing immediately.

Looking at Hua Rujin with a smile, he said in a warm voice: "Little Hua'er, you have to be good in Mobei, and you must not risk yourself again." ”

"I know, Your Highness be careful all the way."

Hua Rujin glanced at the inside of the carriage and deliberately accentuated her tone: "Take care of Miss Wu." ”

Although she didn't know what the two of them were thinking, she understood a truth, if King Ning returned to Beijing this time and was made the crown prince, only a family background like Wu Muning would be worthy of being the crown princess and the future queen.

"I will."

Zhu Zhiye did not mention Wu Muning much.

Thinking of her, Zhu Zhiye felt a little complicated in his heart.

He couldn't tell what kind of feelings he had for this Nizi.

But he knows Xiaohua'er's mind very well, this Nizi is free and uninhibited by nature, where can she stand the fetters of the inner courtyard of the deep palace, not so much that she is willing to give up, but that she accepts her fate.

This trip to Mobei, he deeply felt his mission for the first time, and now that his father is critically ill, he is also more aware of the burden on his body.

"Ye Chengwei, this king is waiting for your triumphant return in Beijing."

With all the trust, Zhu Zhiye high-fived him heavily, leaned into his ear before turning around, and reminded in a low voice: "Today, this king has fulfilled you and Xiaohua'er, it does not mean that this king has given up on her, if you treat her badly, this king will definitely make a comeback." ”

"The minister will not give His Highness such a chance."

Ye Chengwei smiled heartily, and the two said goodbye.

In June, on the day that Hua Rujin moved to the Tongzhou Mansion with Ye Chengwei, bad news came from Beijing that the emperor died.

Just when the people at the border pass were panicking, all the officials advocated strengthening their vigilance, but Ye Chengwei did the opposite, took the initiative to attack, recaptured the Xicheng Pass in one fell swoop, and then led the army to drive straight into the vast desert hundreds of miles north of Helan Mountain.

Hua Rujin stayed in the Tongzhou Mansion, so he led Qi Feng to help the prefect take care of border affairs every day, waiting for Ye Chengwei to return early.

Seeing the days pass day by day, three years have passed in a blink of an eye, and he has passed his twenty-first birthday, but he has not waited for the news of Ye Chengwei's triumph.

If you want to put it in your own world, this age should be free and easy, but now walking in the streets and alleys of Tongzhou City, she always has the feeling of being an older leftover girl.

Hiding the embarrassment in her heart, she couldn't help but ask Qi Feng: "Is there a letter from the general in the state capital?" ”

Qi Feng could see her thoughts, and smiled without saying a word.

As soon as the two returned to the mansion, they saw a familiar figure standing upright in front of the mansion.

Hua Rujin slowly approached the past, and he also walked towards him step by step.

"Is the battle over?"

Hua Rujin looked at his cheeks that had been through the vicissitudes of life, which had faded away from the immaturity of his early years and had more years of precipitation.

Ye Chengwei and Qi Feng looked at each other with a sly smile, and then took out a holy decree from behind their backs.

Hua Rujin opened it and saw that it was a holy decree to announce his return to Beijing to form a cabinet.

She glared at Qi Feng angrily: "You already knew that the general was back?" ”

Qi Feng smiled evilly: "Miss, I also just learned about it." ”

"Let's go, my lady Shousuke."

Ye Chengwei made a gesture of invitation.

"I haven't cleaned it up yet."

Hua Rujin was a little angry in his heart, he went back to Beijing to make such a sneaky scene, and he kept himself in the dark.

"Pack something."

Ye Chengwei hugged her and drilled directly into the carriage on the side.

After intimacy in the carriage for a while, he suddenly poked his head out and instructed Qi Feng: "General Qi, if your young lady needs to bring back the objects in Beijing, you can pick them up for her." ”

After saying that, he asked the groom to drive the horse and set off.

Hua Rujin carefully looked at these two goods, where is he still like a handsome son, galloping in the desert for a few years, the whole person has become a lot darker.

After three years of separation, Ye Chengwei thinks about her every day and goes crazy, and at the moment he just wants to hug her quietly, only in this way can he really feel that she is in front of him.

"Why is Your Majesty in such a hurry to summon you back to Beijing?"

Hua Rujin asked.

King Ning ascended the throne in front of the first emperor Ling a few months after returning to Beijing, and the enthronement ceremony was held only a few months ago.

Listening to the letter written by Luo Xuan, he specially sent someone to bring Qin Wanrou and Hua Junnian, Cai Baiwei and his wife to Beijing, and also rewarded the house and land, and gave Hua Junnian a promotion and knighthood.

"Now that the situation at the border is stable, with Han Wei stationed in Mobei, there will not be much war, but His Majesty has just ascended the throne, and the second elder of the Wei family is already old, and the situation in the court makes him have mixed feelings."

Ye Chengwei smiled and said: "The queen mother set up for Your Majesty is really a powerful character, the queen mother originally wanted to promote the Wu family and let her father's Lord Shangshu of the household department be promoted to the first assistant, it stands to reason that Wu Shangshu is fair and honest, and he has never been on a business trip for so many years in charge of the household department, and his seniority is much deeper than mine, but the queen rejected it to His Majesty." ”

"The queen is a smart person, otherwise she would not please the queen mother as much."

Hua Rujin likes Wu Muning from the bottom of her heart, treats people sincerely, and knows how to advance and retreat, and it is very suitable for her to be wise and foolish.

On this matter, even if the new emperor is not the only favorite, at least he can win the love and support of many people.

"The matter of King Fu and King Yun has implicated many old courtiers, and the current court is scattered, the queen mother thinks that Her Majesty has just ascended to the throne, and her prestige is still shallow, and she wants to use the Wu family to maintain the situation in the court, but the queen does not want the Wu family to become the second Xue family."

Hua Rujin raised her eyes and looked at him, also afraid that he would not be confident, and deliberately encouraged: "Besides, with prestige and talent, I am afraid that only adults can form a new cabinet is what everyone wants, there is an old saying, Wen can govern the country in peace, Wu can calm the world, and the adults can occupy it all, just sweeping away Mobei This matter is enough to make everyone surrender." ”

"So you have such a high opinion of your future husband?"

"That's natural, the husband I chose is a hero no matter how you say it."

"But your hero now wants nothing more than to stay with his future wife."

Ye Chengwei looked at her with low eyebrows, and suddenly leaned into her ear and whispered: "There is something I forgot to tell you, I wrote to Ting An before I came back from the grassland, so that he and his mother were preparing for the next hire, and we will get married when we return to Beijing, what do you think?" ”

Looking at his almost pleading eyes, Hua Rujin couldn't cry or laugh, and almost laughed.

He was still jealous of what happened three years ago.

At that time, I was embarrassed about something, and it was not good to tell him the truth.

Hua Rujin smiled and quipped: "When did our champion Lang ask for a kiss and became so cautious, why, now that Your Majesty has been established, don't you worry about me thinking about Your Majesty anymore?" ”

"I have nothing to worry about."

Ye Chengwei sneered coldly: "Governor Hua is afraid that he will have to argue to leave the palace in less than two days after entering the palace." ”

"Since you know my character so well, you dare to marry me as the first wife?"

Hua Rujin pressed against his chest and smiled evilly.

"Mrs. Shoufu is naturally not an ordinary woman, if she is a submissive character, how can she beat those famous ladies in Beijing."

Ye Chengwei saw that she didn't prevaricate herself this time, and she was happy from the bottom of her heart.

"When we become relatives, if you don't like to stay in the house, you can continue to do what you like, you don't have to have any scruples about your mother, you also know her temperament, she is not a person who loves to be restrained, but there is one thing, don't worry about silver."

Ye Chengwei didn't want her to be like before, just running around for a living, so he took out all the properties he had in various disposal offices with her.

"I haven't been an official for a few years, when did I buy so many properties?"

Hua Rujin carefully calculated, in Beijing, Jiangling City and Jiangxia City, there are millions of furniture, which is not something that ordinary people can do.

Ye Chengwei took out a letter to show her, but did not say anything.

Hua Rujin read the content of the letter several times, and then realized that he meant something, and followed the handwriting to recall what happened at the Jiangxia City auction house.

"The Evil God of Knives and Pens."

She called out in surprise.

At that time, he suspected that Ye Chengwei might be this hidden master.

"Adults really like to hide clumsy, I still thought at that time that if I married such a gentleman, I would only need to sit at home and count the silver every day in the future, where do I need to run around."

"You're such a little money fan."

Ye Chengwei pinched the tip of her little nose angrily: "If you have a child in the future, I'm afraid you will have to earn money before you learn to read." ”

"Then I don't have to worry about it."

At the mention of this, Hua Rujin suddenly thought of something.

Her expression gradually became serious, and she asked cautiously: "I heard that Your Majesty has granted amnesty to the world this year, and Lu Lao has been forgiven by His Majesty and allowed him to return to his hometown, we are about to get married, do you want to visit his old man before returning to Beijing?" ”

Ye Chengwei's eyes paused slightly, and only after a long time did he raise his head and look at her: "You are in charge." ”

Then, the conversation changed: "It can't affect the marriage." ”

From his eyes, Hua Rujin could no longer see the anger of the past, indicating that he had been relieved of this matter.

She was happy from the bottom of her heart.

"There are still some days left before the Qixi Festival of the next month, why don't you get married on this day?"

"Listen to you."

Ye Chengwei leaned quietly on her little shoulder, he didn't want to think about anything now, he just wanted to enjoy the comfortable time with her to make up for the pain of being separated over the years.

The breeze was gently blowing on the official road with hills and ravines, and the wheels were still rolling forward, slowly driving towards the land full of vitality and heavenly treasures.
