Quick time travel: The system wants me to save the sick girl

Xuan Yicheng walked beside Lu Yan and said with a smile: "Jing Heng should have been coaxed to sleep."

Lu Yan nodded, "That's good." Then the two of them strolled in the corridor together.

Lu Yan looked up at the night sky, feeling quite emotional.

Xuan Yicheng turned his head to look at him, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes, "Yes, being with you is a different feeling."

Lu Yan was slightly stunned, then smiled, "Your Majesty is joking."

The two were silent for a moment, and finally Xuan Yicheng spoke first: "Lu Yan, I want to hear your opinion on Jing Heng's education."

Lu Yan thought for a moment and replied, "He has gone through too much suffering. We should let him feel more warmth and love."

Xuan Yicheng nodded in agreement, "That's right. But at the same time, he also needs to learn knowledge and etiquette. After all, he is a member of the royal family."

"In this regard, I believe Your Majesty will have a better arrangement." Lu Yan said.

"You're right, I'll think about it carefully." Xuan Yichen looked at Lu Yan.

"However, I want to know more about your thoughts on our relationship." Lu Yan's face showed an unnatural look when he heard this. He lowered his head and said softly, "We got married on our own and don't have any thoughts."

Xuan Yicheng smiled and reached out to hold Lu Yan's hand. "Lu Yan, I like you and I want to be with you. My position as queen has been vacant for a long time, and I think you are the most suitable."

Lu Yan suddenly raised his head and looked at Xuan Yicheng, with a flash of surprise and joy in his eyes, "Your Majesty...I..." Xuan Yicheng interrupted him, "Call me Yicheng."

"Yicheng..." Lu Yan called softly, just like he called him when Lu Yan didn't know his identity.

Xuan Yicheng smiled. He took Lu Yan's hand and squeezed it even harder, "I've been waiting for this day for a long time." Lu Yan lowered his head and smiled. He held Xuan Yicheng's hand in return, "Me too." Under the moonlight, the two figures hugged each other tightly.

Although the emperor has decided to do this, it is still difficult to implement, so it is better not to reveal it for now.

And the news I got today.

Urgent news from the border, the emperor revealed a little to Lu Yan.

"It seems that we are facing another war." Lu Yan said solemnly. Every war makes people's life miserable.

"Well, I have ordered the border guards to step up their alert." Xuan Yicheng's eyes revealed firmness and decisiveness. "No matter what, we can't let our guard down."

"The enemy is coming with great force this time, so we must be fully prepared." Lu Yan said, "And this time it happened suddenly, with no signs at all, so there might be something we don't know about."

"I will call the ministers together to discuss countermeasures." Xuan Yicheng turned and looked into the distance, "No matter what, we must protect this land."

Lu Yan nodded in agreement. They knew the cruelty and difficulty of this war, but they also firmly believed that as long as they united as one, they would be able to defeat the enemy.

Under the bright moonlight, the two men looked extremely determined. They will face future challenges together and fight for their country and their people.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Yan suggested: "Your Majesty, we can send spies to go deep behind enemy lines to collect intelligence. The most important thing for us now is to be able to obtain news from the front line."

Xuan Yicheng nodded and praised: "Yes, I do have this idea. But... the selection of this person needs to be cautious."

"I do have a candidate." Lu Yan said in a calm tone.

"Oh?" Xuan Yicheng looked at him with interest, "Tell me about it."

Lu Yan told Xuan Yicheng what he was thinking. After listening, Xuan Yicheng thought about it for a while and agreed. At the moment, this person was indeed the best candidate.

A few days later, a mysterious messenger quietly left the capital and set out on a journey to the border. His mission was to go deep into the enemy camp, find out the enemy's strengths and weaknesses, and prepare for the upcoming war.

"It's getting late, go back and rest." Lu Yan looked at him. "There will definitely be another big battle in the court tomorrow."

"You're right." Xuan Yichen pulled Lu Yan towards his palace.

"In addition, we also need to strengthen the city's defenses." Lu Yan said as he walked, "The border is dangerous, and it will take some effort to defend it."

"I will send more people to ensure that the city is impregnable." Xuan Yicheng responded, "Once the border is breached, the towns behind the border will be the most dangerous."

The two men walked to the palace gate and looked at each other.

"If a war breaks out, it probably won't be easy." Lu Yan said worriedly.

"But we have no choice." Xuan Yicheng's eyes were firm, "For the sake of the people and the country, we can only fight to the death."

"Yes." Lu Yan nodded heavily. "Is there any way to avoid war?"

Xuan Yicheng shook his head. "They are just a bunch of reckless men. They are not regular troops at all. After we defeated them, they have been unwilling to sign a surrender agreement."

"We have suffered heavy losses and there is nothing we can do to them, so we can only be on guard against them at all times."

"I see." Lu Yan nodded to show that he understood.

After entering the palace, Xuan Yicheng patted Lu Yan on the shoulder and said, "Don't think too much. Take a good rest first."

"You too, Your Majesty." Lu Yan nodded slightly.

The night is getting darker.

Lu Yan couldn't sleep. 'System, why are they targeting the capital?'

'They are just a group of people who have been expelled. The terrain outside the border is dangerous and the environment is harsh. They just want to leave there.'

'They found a place where they could survive, but the world had already been divided into several countries, and they had nowhere to go except that place.'

Lu Yan couldn't answer. They just wanted to survive, but they would have to pay a huge price just to survive.

The next morning, Xuan Yicheng came to the court.

The ministers presented their opinions and suggestions. Some advocated taking the initiative to attack instead of defending; others believed that they should hold on to the city and wait for the enemy to tire. Xuan Yicheng listened to everyone's opinions with a frown on his face.

At this time, someone stood up and expressed his opinion, "Your Majesty, I think we should focus on defense at the moment, and send out spies to investigate the enemy situation." He paused, and then continued, "In addition, we can strengthen the reserves of food and supplies in the city to prepare for emergencies."

Xuan Yicheng nodded and agreed with his proposal, "My dear ministers, what you said is very true. Do you have any other good ideas?" For a moment, everyone in the court discussed it and finally reached a consensus.
