The medical concubine is blessed with good fortune and her husband's life is prosperous. The mo

If it were just these two decrees, giving names to the twins and allowing King Ling's army to return to Youzhou.

Then Chen Xingyao was very happy to be the imperial envoy.

He went to Youzhou several times, but was not well received by Princess Ling because he did not complete his tasks well each time.

Like last time, although he brought back the naval power, he stayed in Chang'an for too long, and the military supplies he brought back, as Princess Ling said, were not enough to even build a ship!

This time, he felt that the emperor still loved his son Prince Ling very much. With his and Emperor Huang's crying, Princess Ling's wish was fulfilled.

He was about to ride back to Youzhou as fast as he could to convey the imperial edict, but when he looked down, he saw that there was a third imperial edict.

The small country of Goryeo dared to send troops to Daxia, so King Ling was ordered to destroy Goryeo within a year. He would punish the country, destroy its clan, destroy its sacrifices, and completely turn Goryeo into a county of Daxia.

Chen Xingyao was silent for a long time and couldn't help but think of his father. He was the same. Every time he gave him something, he would add conditions.

Princess Ling just doesn't want to go back to Chang'an. How could the emperor be so angry?

Chen Xingyao didn't dare to guess the emperor's intention. The decree only said that Goryeo should be destroyed within one year, but did not mention providing military supplies to Youzhou's navy. In other words, the court would not provide supplies, and Prince Ling would have to find a way himself.

Chen Xingyao was a little afraid to go back to Youzhou. He handed the imperial edict to Imperial Envoy Huang and asked, "Sir, are you going to make another trip?"

Imperial Envoy Huang covered his calf, which had long since healed, and fell to the ground wailing:

"My injury prevents me from traveling to Youzhou. Please forgive me, sir. I'd better make the trip by myself!"

Chen Xingyao:......

I wish I had been hit by an arrow earlier!

He originally wanted to discuss it with his father, but when he thought about the fact that he was now a real member of Ling Wang's party, his father would only scold him and would not give him any advice if he went home.

I had no choice but to accept the imperial edict and hurry to Youzhou before the coldest time came.

Duke Chen waited at home for a long time, only to hear from his servants that the prince had received an imperial decree in the palace and had left the city directly.

Duke Chen was both angry and aggrieved. He felt that he had raised this son in vain!

What good is that hellhole of a place like Youzhou? Why would he risk his life for it?

Soon, the emperor's imperial edict to Youzhou spread, and the prince was very happy. Giving the jade plate to that bitch's children was no big deal at all.

Anyway, when he ascends the throne, the first thing he will do is to make Prince Ling's family into criminal slaves.

The Crown Prince was angry about the fact that Prince Ling's army did not return to Chang'an, because he was trying to seize Prince Ling's military power.

But when King Ling returned to Youzhou, he was at a loss as to what to do.

But the Emperor still asked Prince Ling to destroy Goryeo within one year. This was clearly intended to make things difficult for Prince Ling, and it only delayed the plan to seize his military power for one year.

Although Goryeo is small, it is extremely difficult to conquer.

Especially since Youzhou doesn't even have a regular navy right now, and if the imperial court doesn't provide military funds, even if King Ling is given ten years, he won't be able to destroy Goryeo!

To the prince, these were all trivial matters. What pleased him most was the emperor's attitude towards Prince Ling.

Just because Prince Ling conquered the Northern Frontier, they did not publicize his military achievements, and they even planned to make Prince Ling the crown prince.

Instead, if we continue to suppress them and fail to return to Chang'an with the glory, the unprecedented achievement of annihilating the northern border will be greatly reduced.

This is good. The only person in Chang'an is the treacherous King Wu, who is no match for me at all.

His position as crown prince is still secure. As long as he can wait until his father grows old and find the King of Wu's fault, no one can shake his position!

As for the King of Wu, he was also very happy with the Emperor's decree, as long as the King of Ling did not return to Chang'an.

Well, Princess Ling's two children are on the jade plate, so as their uncle, he has to send some gifts to congratulate them.

From the current perspective, Prince Ling is not his enemy, and their goals are the same when it comes to overthrowing the crown prince.

At this time, the Youzhou City was still experiencing the Korean siege, but the soldiers besieging the city were a little strange.

They would just come forward and shout for a while every few hours, then ride their horses for a while, creating the impression that an enemy was at the gates.

But the rest of the time, they actually worked in small teams of ten in the dense forest that was not clearly visible from the city wall.

Tying hemp ropes, carrying coal, sweeping snow, making ice, making arrow feathers, and more, practicing the movements of the game. Although it is on land, movements such as frog jumps, arm strength training, and squats can still be trained.

Shen Dongsu said with a smile: "If Chang'an really sent a powerful imperial envoy, he would see at a glance that most of these Korean soldiers are doing the work of slaves."

Mr. Pang smiled and said, "The emperor won't send anyone. The prince will be back soon."

The reason Shen Dongsu climbed the tower every day these days was that Ling Moxiao was about to arrive. She did not put on armor, but put on a fiery red dress.

In the vast world of snow, the fiery red can be seen even from a long distance away.

She wanted to stand conspicuously at the highest point of Youzhou City, so that when Ling Moxiao returned on horseback, the first person he saw would be her.

Ling Moxiao, I miss you so much.

I have defended our Youzhou City very well.

I raised our children very well.

I didn't let you down, and please don't let me down.

Ling Moxiao rushed back on the twelfth day of the Goryeo siege, although Yuejian's people told him that the siege was fake.

But how could Ling Moxiao be at ease! How could war be true or false?

Among the participants were Koreans and northern nobles. If any of them had evil intentions, the fake siege would become a real siege.

From the moment Ling Moxiao received the news, he rushed to Youzhou almost day and night. He regretted very much that he did not send someone back to Youzhou earlier to discuss with Dong Su.

Dong Su was forced to take this desperate measure because he was afraid that he would be recalled to Chang'an by an imperial edict.

He should have told Dong Su earlier that don't worry, he would not go back to Chang'an.

What he didn't expect was that the emperor actually asked Dong Su to take the child back to Chang'an. Time was too tight and he didn't give them any chance to discuss.

Dong Su must be very scared now.

To protect the child, but also to worry about him.

What a failure he was as a husband! Ever since Dong Su married him, she had never felt at ease for a single day.

The wind and snow grew stronger, but Ling Moxiao's horse did not stop for a moment.

The army was marching too slowly, so he asked his deputy general to lead the troops behind, and he himself went back to Youzhou with only his personal guards.

And on the way back, he could always hear the scouts from Youzhou anxiously saying that Youzhou City was in danger.

The female spy who delivered the letter said that it was the princess who deliberately created confusion and told it to the world.

But he felt even more uneasy. Without seeing with his own eyes that Dong Su and the child were safe and sound, how could he believe that such a war that could deceive the whole world was fake?

On the night of the eleventh day of the siege, Dabao suddenly woke up in the middle of the night, crying with his little fists raised.

This child started sleeping through the night after the confinement period and never cried in the middle of the night.

Dong Su was afraid of waking up Xiaobao, so she took him to the next room to comfort him, rubbing his belly and coaxing him softly. The child was not sick, but might have intestinal cramps.

But the nanny said that the child was too young to see something unclean, so it would be better to go to the crossroads and burn two pieces of paper to calm him down.

This is how it is in the countryside. When children are young and cry or make a fuss, adults sometimes don’t even call a doctor, believing that burning yellow paper can ward off evil spirits.

Dong Su naturally didn't believe it, so he asked the wet nurse to get a pill of Baoji Pill, grind it into powder and stick it on Dabao's belly button.

After tossing and turning for half the night, when it was almost dawn, Dabao finally finished his feeding and fell asleep peacefully.

The wet nurse hurriedly told the princess to rest quickly and she would look after Dabao.

Dong Su's heart moved, she had a strong feeling that Ling Moxiao would come back today.

Instead of resting, she changed her clothes immediately and put on the birthday gift that Chef Jia gave her last year, a bright red cloak inlaid with peacock feathers.

As gorgeous as the feathered robes worn by gods in sacrifices.

Chef Jia gave her a gorgeous dress every year, but she never wore it. She felt that the dress should be placed in a museum instead of being worn.

But at this moment, she put on her clothes as carefully as if they were her wedding dress.

Yue Jian advised distressedly: "It's not dawn yet, Princess, go to sleep for a while!"

Shen Dongsu shook her head: "Let's go pick up the prince."

When she got on the luxurious four-wheeled carriage and arrived at the north gate, half of the people in the city had heard that the princess was going to pick up the prince again.

It's really touching! Even when Goryeo was besieging the city, the princess never thought of leaving, but climbed the city wall every day to look north.

With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for!

Just as Shen Dongsu climbed up the city wall in her best attire and looked towards the north, the early sun in the east slowly rose from the sea level.

It crosses the sea and dense forests, spreads over the majestic Youzhou City, and shoots towards the peaks and grasslands in the north.

A figure emerged from the morning sun, riding a white horse and wearing black clothes. His silver armor was dyed a warm orange by the morning sun, and his fiery red cloak was blown up by the morning breeze.

The entire north was still; only that man and his horse were moving.

He seemed to have broken into a beautiful ink painting. The moment he moved, the whole painting came alive.

It was the first time that Shen Dongsu felt that the vast scenery in the north of Youzhou was so beautiful.

For the first time, I felt that longing is tangible, especially when the person you think about day and night appears in front of you like a god.

Longing turns into tears and bursts out.

She waved her hands on the tower and shouted loudly to the figure: "Ling Moxiao!"

Countless military trumpets sounded, the whole city was in an uproar, the prince is back!

Prince Ling returned triumphantly from his northern expedition.

Shen Dongsu got down from the city wall as quickly as possible and rode on her chestnut horse.

They galloped towards Ling Moxiao. When the two war horses, one white and one red, met each other, both of them jumped off the horses at the same time.

They didn't say anything, just looked at each other, and then hugged each other tightly.

"Donsu."

"Ling Moxiao."

Ling Moxiao's eyes were bloodshot, his chin was covered with stubble, even his hair was messy, his skin was much rougher, and he had lost a lot of weight, but he was as strong and thin as a bamboo.

There is also a crescent-shaped scar on the left cheek.

But in Shen Dongsu's eyes, he is even more handsome now than when he first met her and looked as handsome as a god.

She held Ling Moxiao's face, caressing the scar with heartache, and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work, my husband."

Ling Moxiao held her hand and gently wiped away her tears:

"My wife has worked harder, don't worry, after I come back, I will never let anyone bully you again!"

In Ling Moxiao's opinion, Dong Su was forced to act out the Korean siege because of the bullying by those people in Chang'an.

I'm out there fighting and conquering the world, but you're bullying my wife and children behind my back!

For some reason, Shen Dongsu felt a little guilty when hearing Ling Moxiao say this. Well, no one bullies me, but I bully more people.

But she would never tell the truth to Ling Moxiao. She instantly turned into a good wife and mother and looked at Ling Moxiao tenderly:

"Well! Now that my husband is back, my child and I can sleep peacefully."

If Jia Si were here, he would definitely say that the princess was going to change her attitude again.

When the prince was away, she remained calm even when faced with a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood. When the prince came back, the princess didn't even dare to kill a chicken...

Ling Moxiao felt more and more distressed. Poor Dong Su, she couldn't even sleep well after I left.

At this time, a suppressed whimpering sound was heard behind him. It was Mr. Pang and other generals. After hearing the military call, they immediately came to greet Prince Ling.

Mr. Pang wiped his tears with his sleeves: "The prince is finally back! That's great, that's great!"

Shen Dongsu felt a little embarrassed. After all, she was a mother. How could she be intimate in front of so many people?

She hurriedly let go of Ling Moxiao's hand, but he held it tightly and chuckled:

"My lady is so beautiful today."

Shen Dongsu whispered, "Go home quickly to see the children."

Ling Moxiao carried her onto the horse, and the two rode together. Holding his wife tightly in his arms, Ling Moxiao finally felt the reality of returning home.

He also took his eyes away from Dong Su and looked outside the north city gate. Many soldiers wearing Goryeo military uniforms walked out of the dense forest.

They just knelt on one knee and saluted, without even carrying any weapons.

Only then did Ling Moxiao become certain that the siege of Goryeo was indeed a drama led by the princess, just as the female spy who delivered the letter had said.

He then heaved a long sigh of relief. He never thought about the fact that Shen Dongsu, in her capacity as Princess Ling, had sent so many people to stage a siege of Goryeo.

What's wrong with deceiving the imperial envoy, deceiving the imperial court, and deceiving the people of the world?

What about being reckless and daring? Ling Moxiao had no such idea at all. He even felt that Dong Su's approach was too gentle.

All he saw was that my princess was forced into a helpless situation. The imperial envoy should have been imprisoned in Youzhou City from the beginning. Let him see, if the princess doesn't want to return to Chang'an, who dares to force her!

If Mr. Pang knew what Ling Moxiao was thinking, he would definitely sigh and say that the princess was so bold because of the prince's indulgence.

Shen Dongsu huddled in Ling Moxiao's arms, followed his gaze, and whispered, "Will the prince blame me?"

Ling Moxiao held her arms tighter and said sincerely, "How could that be? As long as you and the child are safe, I won't blame you no matter what you do."

Shen Dongsu smiled and said, "That's good. I was afraid that the prince would blame me and not let you return to Chang'an!"

Ling Moxiao said hurriedly: "It's my fault for not sending someone to tell you in advance. In fact, I have already made preparations. If the emperor insists on letting me return to Chang'an, I will ask Liangzhou for help and send troops to fight the barbarians."

"Although it will delay my return to Youzhou for some time, it is a good reason not to return to Chang'an."

Shen Dongsu was startled, and a warm feeling surged in her heart. She asked again, "Your Majesty doesn't want to return to Chang'an?"

Ling Moxiao chuckled above her head: "In my heart, home is where my wife and children are."

"If you don't like Chang'an, then we won't go back."

Shen Dongsu's eyes became moist again. She had been thinking about how to persuade Ling Moxiao not to get involved in the fight for the throne in Chang'an.

She even listed all the details like she was writing a contract.

She always felt that relying on the love between husband and wife to hold a man was extremely unreliable, and it was better to rely on interests.

But at this moment, hearing Ling Moxiao say so decisively, if she didn't like it, then she wouldn't reply.

It seemed to her that it was such an important and complicated matter.

And in Ling Moxiao's opinion, nothing can be more important than her thoughts.

She smiled and said softly, "That's great! You haven't changed at all."

Ling Moxiao spoke almost at the same time as her, but his voice was much louder and full of surprise:

"The changes in Youzhou are so great!"
