When Xiao Heyun came out of the hall, Li Jin, who was standing nearby, strode forward.

"My Lord, what's going on?"

He nodded slightly, his expression still as calm and indifferent as usual: "It's done."

"Great, this way...our efforts this time won't be in vain."

Li Jin's eyes lit up with joy. If he wasn't in the palace, he would definitely shout three times.

Seeing this, Xiao Heyun said: "Staying in Kyoto means everything officially begins. We still have a lot to face."

"I know, but I was unwilling to leave Kyoto and endure humiliation and hardship."

They killed the enemies on the battlefield and spent so much energy.

I didn’t expect that the final result would be to be abandoned. Who would be willing to bear such consequences?

What's more, as difficult as Xiao Heyun's life was back then, so were the lives of these personal guards.

If it weren't for the prince's good luck, he would probably be a useless person now.

When the time comes, what will we use to compete with this group of people?

"Well, don't worry. Now that I'm back, they won't have a chance to press on any further."

Xiao Heyun raised his head slightly and looked at the steps in front of the corridor with an expression that seemed to be overlooking.

"Yes, the prince is very different now than before."

Li Jin looked at him and thought of the former Xiao Heyun.

The cold, sinister, and even somewhat gloomy and silent man now has an extraordinary aura, and the aura of a Tianheng noble is even greater than before.

It doesn't seem so gloomy and unapproachable anymore.

"People will change, and if they change for the better, then I am happy for that."

He raised his head slightly and looked up into the air.

It's cloudy today. Although it's not snowing, there is a thick layer of snow on the roof.

He seemed to have thought of something, and the indifference in his eyes slowly melted away, turning into an indescribable gentleness.

Li Jin sighed and thought this was a good idea.

If the prince could have someone he loved, at least... he wouldn't always be trapped in those struggles and killings.

Before, he thought Nangong Yuan was rebellious and had a strong personality, and was not a good person.

But on second thought, those ladies in Kyoto who take care of their husbands' daily life and diligently manage the backyard may not be worthy of Xiao Heyun's attention.

What he needs is someone who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

And that person doesn't need to know how to sew or do housework.

Just stand there, like a dazzling sun, bringing brilliance and vitality.

This is the person Xiao Heyun needs. Perhaps... choosing her is not a bad thing.

He has changed a lot now, but Li Jin can see that he has not changed in an uncontrollable direction, so that's fine.

"Today is New Year's Day. I will go home in the evening. Your Highness should go and accompany her."

Xiao Heyun nodded: "Yeah."

He had long wanted to give Nangong Yuan a surprise.

But from what she said today, it seems that she already knows what she wants to do.

No matter who saw it, it seems that there is no threat to him at the moment.

Nangong Yuan has never liked fighting and is too lazy to play those tricks.

It seems that it might be Nangong Jin who told her.

The two have known each other for a long time and are both military generals, so it is understandable that they could guess his intentions.

Moreover, for Nangong Yuan's sake, he said nothing.

"Your Majesty, please come in. It's a bit cold outside."

Xiao Heyun was a martial arts expert, so he was naturally not afraid, but he had been out for a long time, and people noticed that something was not right.

So the two of them returned to the hall.

At this moment, everyone was drinking tea and chatting, and the atmosphere seemed to be quite happy.

Xiao Heyun sat down in his seat when someone came over.

"My Lord, Happy New Year."

Xiao Heyun turned his head and nodded very reservedly: "Lord Shen, too."

He picked up the wine glass and drank it all, and his beautiful lips were covered with a layer of moisture.

Shen Jing smiled and said nothing more.

He greeted many people today, so his behavior at this moment did not seem out of place.

In order to return to the capital, Xiao Heyun took ruthless measures.

However, the news was still given by Shen Jing.

He was quite close to the An family. He heard that there was a girl of marriageable age in the An family and they were interested in matchmaking for him.

At that time, Shen Jing had already made up her mind.

The other party looks so anxious, isn't it a trap?

Unexpectedly, I found out that Mr. An was seriously ill, so he thought about it and told Xiao Heyun the news.

That is why he was able to negotiate smoothly with the emperor at this time.

If An Lao died too early, the arrangements would be useless. If he died too late, Xiao Heyun would not be able to stay in the capital.

After all, if the emperor thought about it carefully afterwards and regretted it, he would have no room for maneuver.

Fortunately, today is a special day, and the emperor was very tired from dealing with government affairs for days, so he was a little careless at this time.

This gave Xiao Heyun an opportunity to take advantage of.

"Your Majesty, drink less and don't get drunk."

Li Jin stuffed a hangover pill into his pocket with a serious look on his face.

"I can't drink that badly."

But Li Jin shook his head: "If you are going to meet a girl, how can you get drunk and be annoying?"

The girls all smelled fragrant. Although Nangong Yuan looked unconventional, she was very particular.

How could such a noble lady like others who smoke and drink?

Don't end up not pleasing others but causing them unhappiness instead.

Xiao Heyun suddenly realized what he said: "That makes sense."

So he replaced the wine glass at hand and poured some clean water into it.

Li Jin sighed slightly: "Sure enough, the wine has been changed like this, it seems that the prince still has feelings for Miss Nangong."

In the past, Xiao Heyun would never consider other people's feelings. He wanted to scare away all the girls who approached him, let alone change his habits.

It was cold at the border.

So everyone carries some wine with them and drinks a few sips from time to time to warm themselves up.

After he got injured, Xiao Heyun didn't do much.

Until later... Now that it's fine, there's naturally no problem.

But now it seems that he might change these habits for the sake of his loved ones, which is amazing.

"By the way, it looks like there will be plenty of fun tonight."

The ministers not far away were all laughing at the moment and did not look serious.

Now that government affairs are not being discussed, the ministers who usually confront each other in the court seem to be in harmony and are not arguing.

"Third brother, the emperor is calling you."

He turned his head and saw King Li standing not far away.

"I want to ask about Qingzhou. Why, are you interested too?"

King Li smiled with a subtle evil look on his face: "Of course, Qingzhou is a good place to go."

"nature."

Seeing that he was not angry, King Li said, "Father demoted you before in order to train you well, but I didn't expect you to be so impatient."

"How could that be? Father is doing this for the people of the world. As a subject, I must do my best."

King Li sneered: "That sounds nice."
