Overcoming all difficulties, the princess is reborn to become the empress

After putting away the letter and meeting Pei Qianluo's expectant gaze, Su Yunxuan told him: Feng Yuqi had escaped on his own, and it was not her and Feng Yuqi's intention to go to war between the two countries.

She has written a letter to Su Muxiao, the general of the Yunsheng Escort Banner, ordering him to cease fighting.

But the war has already begun, and whether it can be stopped is not something she can decide.

Leaving Pei Qianluo anxiously behind, Su Yunxuan ordered people to prepare wine and food in the courtyard of Yunxuan Palace.

The moonlight was like water, and the world was changing. The two sat together for the third time to eat.

Wanting to find Pei Qianluo, her confidant, to accompany her before leaving, and also wanting to really indulge herself before anything was decided, Su Yunxuan asked the palace maids to serve a lot of wine.

Pei Qianluo is very conflicted. She was born in Fenglan and now is loyal to Yunsheng. She really doesn't want to see Yunsheng and Fenglan fighting to the death.

Although he had predicted that the special relationship between Feng Yuqi and Su Changfeng and Su Yunxuan might lead to discord between the two countries, Pei Qianluo felt extremely heavy when he saw the people of Liming who suffered after the war between the two countries.

The two were each confused about the future, and for a while, apart from drinking one cup after another, they spoke very little.

Especially Pei Qianluo, who went straight into the palace after returning and did not know about Su Changfeng's coma at the wedding. But at this moment, she did not even notice that it was abnormal that Su Changfeng was not there, and did not even ask a question about Su Changfeng.

After a while, both of them were drunk.

This guy is more likely to open up when he's drunk.

As they drank, the two of them changed from having sad faces to laughing and reminiscing about the past when they met and got to know each other, from sitting upright at the beginning to holding up their glasses, singing to the moon with their arms around each other's shoulders...

After the moon reached overhead, the two drunken men drank some sobering soup and sat back to back on the steps to sober up.

After a while, his mind became a little clearer, and Pei Qianluo began to worry that Su Yunxuan would catch a cold. Then he remembered to ask someone to call Tutor Su to come and take the empress back to her room to rest.

Her question caused the palace maid who had just run from the courtyard gate in response to her call to suddenly stop halfway and look at Su Yunxuan with sympathy.

Su Yunxuan waved at the palace maid, and the palace maid immediately turned around and retreated to her original position under Pei Qianluo's puzzled gaze.

Pei Qianluo became more and more confused. He called the palace maid several times but got no response. He could only look at Su Yunxuan in confusion.

Without waiting for Pei Qianluo to ask, Su Yunxuan stood up and extended her hand to Pei Qianluo.

Without hesitation, Pei Qianluo placed his hand on Su Yunxuan's and then stood up with the force.

After bringing Pei Qianluo to the inner room, Su Yunxuan looked at Su Changfeng who had been unconscious on the bed for several days. Without hiding anything, she told him all the grudges and entanglements between her, Su Changfeng and Feng Yuqi over several lifetimes.

Pei Qianluo was shocked.

Without waiting for Pei Qianluo to recover from her shock, Su Yunxuan said directly what she was thinking after she finished speaking: she asked Pei Qianluo to stay in Yunsheng capital on her behalf, waiting for and dealing with all matters in the court, including the disaster and the epidemic, and she would take Su Changfeng to the border.

Realizing what she was going to do, Pei Qianluo held her hand with tears in her eyes and shook her head, unwilling to let go, "Yunxuan, no, you can't..."

He stopped talking suddenly in the middle of the sentence.

What can’t Yunxuan do?

Can’t give up Su Changfeng?

But, if I don’t give up, will I have to watch Su Changfeng die and never be reborn?

If we don't give up, will Yunsheng and Fenglan continue to fight?

She herself couldn't bear it. Yunxuan was in the position of the Queen of Yunsheng. How could she bear to abandon the people of Dawn because of her petty love?

As soon as she returned to the capital, hadn't she been asking the empress to stop the war between the two countries?

She also brought back a letter from Aunt An Lan putting pressure on Yun Xuan and the others...

With a sharp pain in her heart, Pei Qianluo suddenly realized that she was just like the colleague she once despised. She put forward her demands to Yunxuan from her own perspective...but ignored what Yunxuan wanted...

Everyone... everyone... from now on... has been forcing Yunxuan!

Heartbroken and in tears, Pei Qianluo hugged Su Yunxuan tightly, choking and whispering softly in Su Yunxuan's ear: "I'm sorry... Yunxuan, I'm sorry... We are selfish, you don't have to care... You don't have to care about what everyone thinks, you just need to live for yourself... You..."

Patting Pei Qianluo on the back gratefully, Su Yunxuan interrupted Pei Qianluo and said, "Live for yourself? Brother Changfeng has said this to me many times. This time, I really want to live for myself, and I also want Brother Changfeng to live for himself."

She spoke this very slowly and softly, but her tone sounded unusually firm.

Pei Qianluo didn't understand what she meant by this, so he let go of Su Yunxuan, kept some distance, and looked at the expression on Su Yunxuan's face with confusion.

Su Yunxuan pulled a faint smile from the corner of her mouth, raised her hand and gently wiped away the tears on Pei Qianluo's face and said, "Qianluo, thank you."

"What are you thanking me for?" Pei Qianluo grabbed Su Yunxuan's hand and refused to let go.

Su Yunxuan's smile widened, "Thank you for coming to help me, thank you for your company..."

Raising her other hand and quickly scratching Pei Qianluo's nose, Su Yunxuan pretended to be playful and ordered: "This help and companionship must last a long time!"

"Yes." Pei Qianluo instinctively nodded vigorously and let go of Su Yunxuan's hand. She took a step back and said solemnly and respectfully, "It will last forever. I, Pei Qianluo, swear that I will always be the most loyal supporter of the empress."

"I want more than just a supporter," Su Yunxuan stepped forward, hugged Pei Qianluo and said, "I also want a lifelong confidant and colleague."

......

Pei Qianluo agreed to Su Yunxuan's request and was reluctant to leave.

After explaining something to the two palace maids and Ruoying whom Su Changfeng had arranged to be by her side, and dismissing all the palace servants in the hall, Su Yunxuan soaked in the hot water for nearly an hour before getting up. She went to bed as she had done for many days, and slept soundly for the whole day while holding Su Changfeng in her arms.

At night, a carriage quietly left the capital of Yunsheng.

Although Ruoying, who was in charge of driving the carriage, didn't understand why Empress Su Yunxuan was in such a hurry, he always admired the strong.

He also adhered to the principle of working for whoever saves his life. After witnessing Su Yunxuan's strength and Su Yunxuan saving his life from Feng Yuqi, he decided in his heart that the Empress Su Yunxuan would be his new master from then on.

After daybreak, the carriage had traveled far away from Yunsheng capital.

Ruoying followed Su Yunxuan's instructions and did not hurry on her journey. Instead, she walked and stopped on her way to the border.

In addition to Su Yunxuan and Su Changfeng, Ruoying also brought four other assassins from the Taifu Mansion as instructed, plus the two palace maids beside Su Yunxuan, a total of nine people.

Worried that Su Changfeng was still unconscious, and in order to hide their tracks, they rarely stayed in inns and basically set up camp on the spot.

Several people took turns to keep watch in pairs, so it was relatively safe along the way.

Along the way, they often saw refugees returning home to farm. Although the conditions were difficult, the people's faces were full of hope, which made them feel much better.

When the sun was shining, and they occasionally came across a deserted place with pleasant scenery on the road, Su Yunxuan would order Ruoying to carefully carry Su Changfeng off the carriage.

She sat on the ground, found a comfortable position, and placed Su Changfeng's head on her knees. The two of them basked in the sunshine and breeze while reminiscing and talking about their past meetings and interactions.

Every time this happened, Ruoying would obey orders, lead everyone away and keep watch.

This guarding seems to be timed, often to a precise hour.

After a few times, Ruoying, who usually acted a little impatient, became more calm.

It couldn't be unstable either, because along the way, except for this matter and necessary physiological needs, Ruoying and the others basically couldn't see Empress Su Yunxuan getting off the carriage.
