In June of the third year of Duanyuan, the Queen gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, the second prince Xiao Run and the eldest princess Xiao Xin.

The emperor was overjoyed and issued a general amnesty.

Mei Qianhe was also reinstated, but the Mei family members who were still far away in the Western Regions seemed to have been deliberately forgotten and were still diligently digging for silver.

In August of the same year, Emperor Duanyuan appointed Earl Ci'en as an imperial envoy to establish a trade channel between Dali and Beidi.

Cienbo led a group of imperial merchants to contact the northern Di merchants and opened up a trade route to the north.

This road had a profound impact on the development of Dali and was known in history as the Lidi Road.

In August of the sixth year of Duanyuan, the civil unrest in southern Xinjiang reached its peak.

At the suggestion of Emperor Duanyuan, the Duke of Jin declared war on southern Xinjiang.

The Zhou army was unstoppable and in one fell swoop, they destroyed the eighteen villages in southern Xinjiang and took control of the territory of southern Xinjiang.

Southern Xinjiang was incorporated into Guangdong, and since then there has been no Southern Xinjiang in the world.

For a time, the streets of Kyoto were deserted and the people cheered.

In the tenth year of Duanyuan, a large ship built under the supervision of the Dali Shipbuilding Bureau was successfully tested in water.

Xue Sheng, the Minister of Rites, took his men on a ship overseas and brought back many overseas items to the Dali Dynasty.

It also established diplomatic relations with the overseas country of Persia, and even the people of Kyoto began to raise Persian cats.

In the 14th year of Duanyuan, Emperor Duanyuan abdicated the throne to the Crown Prince and changed the reign title to Changxi.

He ordered Xiao Li, Xue Sheng, Shen Jie Zhang, Mei Qian He and others to assist Emperor Changxi.

Dali will usher in a brand new era!

......

An area of ​​the East China Sea.

The group boarded the boat and sailed back to the island with a boat full of fish.

The orange setting sun gradually moved down along the sea level and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Only the sunset glow painted the sky.

Shen Baozhao stood by the boat, looking at the vast sea. Xiao Yuanhuai gently embraced her from behind and rested his head on her shoulders.

"Ah Huai, do you think it would be bad if we didn't bring Ah Xin with us?"

"How could that be? Ah Xin is well behaved and will definitely understand that father and mother want to be alone. At worst, we can go to Persia on our way back and bring her some new and interesting things."

As Xiao Yuanhuai spoke, he kissed her ear.

He turned her body around, lowered his head and kissed her soft and delicate lips. He gently pried open her pearly teeth and drove straight in. He sucked the saliva that was like nectar.

Well-behaved? Shen Baozhao felt that Xiao Yuanhuai was overly self-deceiving. Was he describing their daughter?

Ah Xin is simply a devil! She has loved bullying her second brother since she was a child. All the eunuchs and maids in the palace love and fear her.

Fortunately, she was most afraid of her eldest brother, so there was finally someone who could keep her under control.

Shen Baozhao had only been out for ten days, but he was already worried about how to face the fact that he had stood up his daughter.

"Zhao Zhao, pay attention." Xiao Yuan held the back of her head with dissatisfaction.

Continue to deepen the kiss.

The ship gradually approached the shore. There were many imperial guards stationed on the island. When the emperor and empress's ship arrived, someone was responsible for unloading the cargo.

"Everyone, we're going to have a feast tonight using our catch. Everyone will have a share!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."

Just as everyone was expressing their gratitude, a little girl in a goose yellow skirt jumped out from behind the reef.

"Father, emperor, mother!"

Xiao Xin stepped forward and took Shen Baozhao's arm, revealing a bright and lively smile: "Are you surprised to see your daughter?"

Shen Baozhao looked at this daughter who looked 70% like her, lovingly tidied up her hair that was blown by the wind, and said with a deliberately stern face: "I'm not happy, I'm just quite shocked."

Xiao Xin was dissatisfied, pouted her lips and spoke in a long tone, "Mother, you clearly promised your daughter to take me with you, how could you run away secretly with father?"

Speaking of this, Shen Baozhao felt a little guilty.

"Fortunately, my Uncle Xin has time to bring his daughter here." Xiao Xin betrayed Jin Yuxin with a smile.

Jin Yuxin had no choice but to touch his forehead and come out to greet them: "Good luck to you, brother and sister-in-law!"

Shen Baozhao was still wondering how Ah Xin knew they were on this island, it turned out there was a spy.

Xiao Yuanhuai hit Jin Yuxin's forehead with his knuckle, causing Jin Yuxin to grimace in pain.

His plan of spending some time alone with his wife was disrupted. How could he spend every day with Zhao Zhao with such a burden?

Xiao Xin felt a little guilty and explained, "Father, it was because of my daughter's constant persuasion that Uncle Xin brought me here."

Jin Yuxin looked at Xiao Xin with satisfaction. His daughter was really sensible and it was worth it that he had loved her for so many years. He also planned to leave all the assets of the Jin family to her as a dowry.

Shen Baozhao knew that Jin Yuxin was a volatile person, and coupled with his daughter's lawless nature, he was worried that if they were together, it would cause unrest among the whole family.

I had to make three rules first: "Ah Xin, if you want to go out to sea, you must report to my father and mother. You are not allowed to go out to play secretly.

If you are discovered once, I will write to your eldest brother and ask him to arrest you and bring you back. You are not allowed to leave the palace again!"

Seeing that Shen Baozhao was very serious and didn't seem to be joking, Xiao Xin shrank his head and nodded repeatedly.

After a tiring day, Bixiao had already prepared some fragrant soup, and Shen Baozhao took a bath as soon as he came back.

"Zhao Zhao, your husband wants to take a shower too."

"Then wait a moment until I finish washing."

"I can't wait any longer. Let's go together."

With a splash, the water from the bathtub splashed all over the floor.

Bixiao led everyone to retreat.

The lights were just coming on, and the imperial guards were still feasting outside. But in the room the waves had receded, and the rain and clouds had stopped.

Shen Baozhao leaned in Xiao Yuanhuai's arms, looking at the lights outside the window.

The rumble of waves hitting the rocks made the night seem even more peaceful.

"Ahuai, it's great to have you."

"Zhao Zhao, it's better to have you."
