At the end of the third year of Yuan Yi (the name of the emperor of the current dynasty), the sudden war of neighboring countries swept the northern border of the country where Qu Ling Kite was located, and there were still two months left before the wedding date of Shen Qingmo and Qu Ling Kite at this time.

It stands to reason that a man and a woman will not meet during the marriage period, but Shen Qingmo and Qu Lingyuan are not taboo about these, and the two often play and eat together.

"Brother Nine, the northern border... Are our troops very poor?" Qu Lingyuan couldn't help but ask when he heard that General Zhenguo had been beaten and retreated at the border today.

Shen Qingmo shook his head and denied: "No, on the contrary, our military strength is much stronger than that of our neighbors, and this king is also very strange, the general of Zhenguo is not an incompetent person, he is one of the few emperor diehards, and he will be defeated and retreated by a small country... It's weird. ”

Isn't it strange? Qu Lingyuan didn't think about it that much, she was just curious, and she always couldn't get involved in national affairs.

It's just that the poor man has to work hard for this.

"Lord Wang, there is news from the enemy army. A man who looked like a guard came in through the door and fell to one knee.

"Say it. Shen Qing didn't reply, and he was still half-hugging Qu Ling Kite in his arms.

The guard only thought that he was blind and couldn't see, and hesitated for a moment before saying, "The enemy said that he promised to withdraw his troops, and the condition was... I want Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to go over and kiss. ”

"What!?" Shen Qingmo and Qu Lingyuan both looked back together in shock.

"Why did you specify me?" Qu Lingyuan was completely sure that no one in the enemy country knew what she looked like, and it would be too far-fetched to say that she was fighting for the sake of beauty.

"Lord, the emperor has already gone to Changle Palace to ask the Empress Dowager what she means. The guard continued.

Shen Qingmo and Qu Lingyuan glanced at each other, and they both saw the word strange in each other's eyes.

On the other side, the main hall of Changle Palace.

"No! The mourning family disagrees!" The empress dowager is rarely so angry, "Emperor, you tell the mourning family, can we really not defeat that small country? Although the mourning family doesn't care about anything, they also know that we are stronger, right? The general of Zhenguo can't beat it, that's because he is incompetent! Change someone to lead the troops! The mourning family does not agree to let Yueyun go to make peace!"

"Grandma Huang, this is related to the lives of many soldiers! How can you be so selfish at this time. The emperor lobbied the Empress Dowager hard.

"Selfish? The mourning family asks you, how do you make the mourning family selfless at this time? Yueyun is already in a bad body..."The more the Empress Dowager spoke, the more heartache she became, and her voice was full of whimpering, "Besides, the marriage between Qingmo and Yueyun is a holy decree made by you personally, and the emperor wants to break his word?"

"For the sake of the people of the north..."

Before the emperor finished speaking, the voice of Qu Ling Kite came from outside.

"Queen Mother!" Qu Lingyuan heard the quarrel in the house, stopped the palace people who reported it, and ran in without calling anyone to report it.

When the emperor saw Qu Lingyuan coming in, he turned his head and began to lobby her: "Auntie, the enemy said that you would be willing to withdraw only if you went to make peace with your relatives, so you agreed." ”

"I—" Qu Lingkite choked up.

She only likes Shen Qingmo, and she still has a task on her part, so it is impossible to marry a man other than Shen Qingmo, but in this case, she doesn't know how to speak.

"Auntie..."

The emperor wanted to continue to say something, but Shen Qingmo, who had a gloomy face next to him, flicked his sleeves and interrupted him with a remark: "That's enough! This king personally went to the battlefield to lead the troops, and he will never allow this king's fiancée to be robbed." ”

"Uncle Huang, think twice, General Zhenguo has not won a battle for so long, and... As long as there is a war, there will definitely be soldiers who will die..."

"The emperor doesn't believe in this king?" Shen Qingmo almost slashed the emperor with a thousand knives with his eyes, "There is no need to discuss, this matter is so decided, if the enemy army is allowed to ask for it, then we will not become a laughing stock." ”

After speaking, without waiting for the emperor to continue to express his position, Shen Qingmo pulled Qu Ling Kite and left Changle Palace.

I didn't expect to leave without saying a word on this trip to Changle Palace, and Qu Ling Kite was a little in a trance.

On the way back to Xiyun Palace, Shen Qingmo's handsome face was covered with dark clouds, making it clear that the wind and rain were coming, and she was a little worried when she saw it.

Until dinner, Shen Qingmo didn't leave, and sat with Qu Lingkite without saying a word.

"You... Do you really want to go to the battlefield in person?" Qu Lingyuan looked at him with a worried face.

"When the king comes back from the north, he will marry ......" Before he finished speaking, he was covered by Qu Ling's kite.

Don't set up a flag! It's easy to overturn! Qu Lingyuan was very anxious, but he couldn't say this.

"Don't say it, the kite will wait for you..."

At this moment, Qu Lingkite's heart was dripping blood, but she could only pretend to be shy: "However, you have to promise, you must come back safely and healthily, not a single hair is missing, you..."

Shen Qingmo looked at the two peach-pink lip flaps that opened and closed on Qu Ling's kite, and suddenly felt itchy, if he went to the battlefield, he was afraid that it would take a long time to come back.

Thinking about it, I leaned down...

"Hmm..." The words he wanted to say were drowned between his lips and teeth, and Qu Ling's mind was blank.

This is the first kiss of her past and present lives combined...

Feeling Shen Qingmo's gentle movements, Qu Lingyuan suddenly felt a sour nose, and tears flowed down her cheeks, making Shen Qingmo taste a hint of saltiness.

"What's wrong...?" Shen Qingmo saw her cry for the first time, and her tone was flustered, "You... Don't like it?"

Qu Lingyuan laughed angrily when she heard this: "I don't like it!"

As soon as he finished laughing, he became depressed, put his head on Shen Qingmo's chest, and muttered in a low voice: "I just can't bear you..."

Shen Qingmo sighed, picked up Qu Ling's little face, wiped the tears on her face with her hand, and said solemnly: "Kite, don't worry, this king will not let you go to kiss." ”

Shaking his head violently, Qu Ling Kite grabbed his hand and said word by word: "Kite as long as you come back safely." ”

This night, the two sat quietly together for a long time, Shen Qingmo returned to the palace very late, and Qu Lingyuan rarely experienced insomnia after going to bed.
