There was peace in the capital city.

In addition to paying attention to the developments within the court, Song Jinyu had always been in contact with Rong Yan. When he received the letter sent back by Rong Yan, he naturally knew their developments. The letter also stated their next plans.

During the time when Rong Yan and others were away, Song Jinyu was not idle either. Under his constant persuasion, his grandfather agreed to the unreasonable request of whispering in the emperor's ear. Under the constant persuasion of General Song, the emperor agreed to sign the peace agreement between Xiling and the Li Dynasty.

Song Jinyu held the Tan He Book with a shameless smile. Because he was concentrating on reading, he didn't notice someone approaching from behind. Suddenly, the Tan He Book in his hand was snatched away. Song Jinyu's expression changed and he quickly attacked the person behind him. Ji Chu had no time to resist and was knocked back a few steps by his palm.

Seeing that the person was Ji Chu, Song Jinyu hurriedly withdrew some of his strength, but he still hurt the person. Although he knew that the injury was not serious, Song Jinyu's heart suddenly lifted, and he hurriedly walked over to check Ji Chu from head to toe.

Ever since she came back injured outside last time, Song Jinyu has treated Ji Chu like a treasure. He even ordered the servants not to get close to her, for fear that they might bump into her again. On weekdays, he could only get close to her. It can be said that he protected Ji Chu very well.

Now that he had hurt her, Song Jinyu really wanted to cut off his own hand.

"My aunt, are you okay?"

Ji Chu finished reading the contents of Tan He's book, closed the book and stuffed it into Song Jinyu's hand, saying impatiently, "You didn't use much force, what could have happened?"

In fact, she didn't want to be angry with Song Jinyu. It was just that he had been watching her too closely these days. Even when she went out shopping, he wanted to send a bunch of bodyguards to follow her. She had tried to persuade him and scolded him, but it was of no use. So Ji Chu couldn't give him a good face in front of him now.

"Are you really okay?" Song Jinyu was still worried, so he turned Ji Chu over and looked him over before he felt relieved.

"Oh, I'm really fine, let's talk business first."

Song Jinyu became alert only after Ji Chu said that. He now wanted to slap himself. Why did he take it out now instead of earlier? With Ji Chu's personality, she would definitely think of the connection after knowing the existence of this thing. If she knew what he would do next, she would definitely make a fuss and go with him.

Song Jinyu had never been able to do anything with Ji Chu. The cunning young master Song had no chance of winning against his own wife.

"I saw it, so don't think of finding other excuses to fool me. Otherwise, I don't know what I will do when I'm impulsive."

Song Jinyu gritted his teeth, pushed Ji Chu and said, "This is not the place to talk, let's go back to the house first."

At the table, Song Jinyu had already started drinking his third cup of tea, his mind racing, wondering how he could trick Ji Chu. But Ji Chu seemed to see through his thoughts, and when he poured the fourth glass of water, he snatched the cup from his hand and drank the tea in one gulp.

"That's my cup." Song Jinyu's voice became smaller and smaller, and the last word was almost inaudible.

"You drank the water too. You never drink so many glasses of water in a row. I advise you to tell the truth, or you won't be able to sleep tonight. From now on, I will follow you wherever you go. You won't have the chance to act alone."

Song Jinyu was helpless, his shoulders shrunk and he started to act badly, "Ji Chu, Ji Chu, you don't look like you have any brains, why are you so hard to deal with?"

Ji Chu's face darkened immediately, "Are you saying that I look like trash?"

Song Jinyu's eyes widened with fear, and he quickly argued: "How is it possible? How could my wife, Song Jinyu, not look smart? You look like a brave and resourceful chivalrous man, with an evil aura all over your body."

Ji Chu didn't want to waste time talking to him, so he just glanced at him, and Song Jinyu immediately became depressed.

"Hurry up and tell me, or I'll go to Big Brother and complain about you. Don't think I don't know that you went to Huanyi Building for more than half an hour five days ago."

"Don't look for big brother, I'll tell you everything." Song Jinyu compromised completely. Ji Chu had found his weak spot. He was most afraid of big brother. Just a lecture from him could keep him awake for three days and three nights. If big brother knew that he had secretly gone to Huanyi Building again, he would definitely break his legs.

"But I have to explain in advance that I didn't do anything in Huanyi Building. I went there every time to listen to music. Don't misunderstand me."

"I don't care what you did at Huanyi Building. Stop changing the subject and tell me now."

Song Jinyu curled his lips in dissatisfaction, "This is the business, otherwise you will misunderstand me again."

Ji Chu didn't hear clearly what he said, frowned, and slapped the table directly, which scared Song Jinyu so much that he suddenly became clear-headed.

"Don't be angry, my lady. I'll explain it right away. You can ask anything you want."

Ji Chu's expression became better, and he pointed at the book on the table and said, "I can see clearly that this is the peace agreement between the Li Dynasty and Xiling. The Li Dynasty's imperial seal has been affixed, so the next step is to ask the king of Xiling to attach the imperial seal?"

"As expected of my wife, so smart."

Ji Chu rolled his eyes at him, and Song Jinyu immediately stopped smiling playfully.

"So your grandfather resigned because of this?"

Song Jinyu's eyes lit up. He didn't expect Ji Chu to think of this. He praised sincerely, "It is true that most of the reason is because of this matter, but resigning is also what grandfather wants. He said that he is old now and doesn't want to participate in the intrigues in the court. This time he resigned in exchange for this peace document, which is a good deal."

They all knew that the emperor was in favor of war. He had won a great victory in the battle with Dongxuan. His ambitions were growing at this moment, but he was already old and had ignored the fact that even little devils were difficult to deal with. What's more, Xiling was not a little devil like Dongxuan. Moreover, the battle with Dongxuan had already consumed some military supplies. It was definitely not a good idea to go to war with Xiling again at this time.

Therefore, this peace document was not easy to obtain. Therefore, no matter what the cost, this document must be delivered to the King of Xiling, and he must agree to peace talks at all costs.

"You are required to deliver this document to the prince in person? When do you plan to take action?"

Song Jinyu frowned, she naturally knew what Ji Chu was planning.

"This trip is dangerous, you are not allowed to go."

"No, you know I'm going to go, and you know you can't stop me. Why don't you take me with you? We can take care of each other. You would be more worried if I were alone."

Song Jinyu's face darkened, but he still disagreed, "This operation is no joke, it's really dangerous, even I'm not sure I can come back alive."

"I know. It is precisely because of the dangers that I have to go with you. Now the peace talks must be known to everyone in the court. This matter is hosted by Prince Rong. Prince Shun and his party will definitely try their best to prevent this document from being delivered to the King of Xiling. I will go with you and will never be a burden to you. You must take me with you."

Song Jinyu still didn't give in. Ji Chu continued, "This document is not only what my grandfather got in exchange for his resignation, but it is also related to the safety of the people of both countries. You and I both know how important it is. No matter what the cost, it must be delivered intact to the King of Xiling. I must go with you. If you don't agree, I will follow you secretly. You can choose one of the two."
