I Want to be Alone, Beautifully

It was his most competitive opponent for the throne, the third prince, who Daliang took the initiative to apply for leading troops to rescue Nie Yunyue.

If Xu Jiao didn't know the story of Nie Yunyue, she might not be able to understand how important the card she was holding was, and she would naturally feel flustered when Daliang's army was stationed at the border, but now—

She knew how much Nie Yunyue was a son that King Liang loved.

Even if Nie Yunyue was directly handed over to the third prince, he probably would not be able to return to Liang Kingdom alive. After all, if the third prince wanted to bring him back to the country, he was bringing his biggest political enemy back. How could this be possible?

Letting Nie Yunyue die on the way would be more or less the same, and he could even annex some places bordering Yan State and Qi State by the way, and go back in the name of military exploits and revenge for his brother, which is the biggest goal of the third prince.

Xu Jiao had no intention of communicating directly with the prince.

Although she is also the crown prince, Nie Yunyue and the third prince are also crown princes, but there is a difference in their status... Xu Jiao doesn't have a strong emperor pressing her head down, and as long as she wants to, she will immediately continue to be the crown prince. Bits are not out of the question.

After saying the threatening words, she only asked people to bring Nie Yunyue's hair directly to King Liang. If King Liang didn't let the old soldier, the next time they would send it would be a finger and a leg...

In short, if Liang Guo waited patiently, he should be able to complete the complete spelling of Nie Yunyue, the best heir to the crown prince who was sent back to their country.

……

Xu Jiao, who was confronting Daliang, was not in a hurry.

But Yu Ye, who was allied with the Chu State, received the battle report at the front, but he was very anxious.

Entering the territory of Qi State, she and the soldiers of Chu State divided into two groups, and let the people of Chu State attack the city with the shortest straight-line distance from the capital of Daqi King. The army took a detour and headed towards the imperial capital from the other side.

The people of Qi State were only guarding against the army of Chu State, and they were suddenly led by Yu Ye to break through from the side. When they realized it, Yu Ye's army was less than a hundred miles away from the Emperor Qi.

The emperor of Qi fled overnight, heading all the way to Daliang. The princes and nobles also fled with the emperor's forbidden army. The people of the king's capital also packed up their clothes and followed the army overnight.

Yu Ye did not enter the imperial capital.

She didn't even have time for her subordinates to plunder the treasures left by the imperial capital. Instead, she led the army to turn around and cross the border of Qi State again.

Fang went around to the rear of Daliang's army stationed on the Yanqi border, and surrounded the Liang people tightly.

Liang**'s team is not fighting in their own country, and they don't take advantage of the land. The rear area was originally handed over to the Qi State's allies, but Qi State surrendered too quickly. Now the rear area is surrounded by Yu Ye's people, and the front area is Dayan's city——

The generals and soldiers of the Yan Kingdom were naturally encouraged when they saw Yu Ye's army. They opened the city gate and cooperated with Yu Ye from inside and outside. Injured, the morale of Liang's army was seriously injured. They failed to welcome the crown prince Nie Yunyue back, and even almost lost a crown prince again. In the end, they had to flee in all directions.

The predicament on the border of Yan State was resolved in this way.

……

When Xu Jiao heard the news about Yu Ye, she sat in the study and smiled.

Then she decided to go out of the city to meet Yu Ye's army.

Yu Ye assigned the important military affairs, and specially asked one of his generals to take someone back to the imperial capital of Qi State, because she was running so fast all the way, and the army of Chu State was still fighting against the city that was defending to death. When receiving the news that the royal family of Qi State has escaped and wanted to take a detour to occupy the imperial capital, they may not be able to go faster than Yu Ye's people. In the end, it depends on whose speed the treasures left by the royal family of Qi State belong to. faster.

"General—"

On the march, watching her lead some people towards the direction of the imperial capital, some subordinates showed puzzled eyes. It is clear that there are still many things to be dealt with in the follow-up of Qi State, such as how to manage the captured cities, and How to divide with Chu State, whether to abide by the previous covenant agreement, etc...

They didn't understand why Yu Ye was in such a hurry to walk towards the imperial capital.

After all, isn't Dayan a good person?

Yu Ye couldn't tell them his worries, so he didn't turn his head back and said, "I will discuss the rest of the matter when I come back! If it is not an important matter, the military adviser will discuss it with the generals and decide on their own."

After finishing speaking, she clamped her horse's belly and headed towards the imperial capital of Yan Kingdom as if she was tireless.

The dust covered her back, and only the rapid sound of hoofbeats expressed her thoughts and worries.

……

Because Xu Jiao wants to go out of the city to welcome Yu Ye's triumphant return, it is impossible for the courtiers to just watch the future emperor travel alone, so they naturally have to accompany them. Those who had dissenting intentions in the court were dealt with, and the number of assassins sent to the East Palace was not as many as before.

She knew that the rest of the people were waiting for her to walk out of the East Palace.

she doesn't want to do that

A canary kept in a cage, always hiding in the palace, afraid to go out to face those turmoil, this time she will let the whole Dayan understand that as long as Yu Ye is willing, she will become the new king of Dayan. Sit firmly on the throne, expand the territory, and make the world peaceful.

After the arrangements were made, she judged the speed of the other party's return based on the news from the city that Yu Ye had passed all the way, and after drawing up a date, she took him out of the palace.

She was standing thirty miles outside the city. There was a farewell pavilion there. The scenery on the side of the road was wide open, which was not suitable for assassins to hide. Xu Jiao was surrounded by the guards and courtiers of the Imperial Army like stars. Ladies and gentlemen, the sun hangs in the sky, shining the earth scorchingly hot, which makes people's hearts feel urgent.

There was no movement at the end of the line of sight.

Xu Jiao is also very patient.

She discovered that she didn't have anything in particular that she was good at, but one of them happened to be waiting.

When I was young, I waited for my mother to come home, and when I grew up, I waited for someone who would never come back. It has been like this for more than 20 years, but now it is okay, Yu Ye will come back.

Thinking of this, the smile in her eyes softened a little.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a small cloud of dust at the end of his line of sight. Xu Jiao noticed it sharply, and the officials around him naturally noticed it too, and the crowd suddenly became commotion.

"General Yu is here?"

"That's General Yu!"

"That's right, it's Prince Huai!"

Yu Ye's previous fiefdom was Huai, so some people called her Duke Huai, but her own reputation was earned on the battlefield, so she prefers to be called general by others on weekdays. The reputation of Duke Huai is not very obvious. Salutation preference.

at this time--

Taking advantage of the chaos of the crowd, a person in the clothes of the imperial army approached Xu Jiao calmly. Xu Jiao moved a little from the corner of her eye, and Lan Yan beside her also leaned over:

"Your Highness?"

Xu Jiao raised her hand to push her away, and whispered to her, "Stay away."

Lan Yan was puzzled, and in the next moment, she caught a glimpse of a shiny edge from the corner of her eye.

The high-raised dagger headed in the direction of Xu Jiao, and the team of ministers suddenly panicked. Lan Yan shouted loudly, "There are assassins, escort!" The old minister rushed towards Xu Jiao's direction immediately, and opened his arms to block the assassin's direction for her.

Xu Jiao raised her eyebrows.

But she didn't let anyone sacrifice for her, she pushed the old official towards the imperial guard next to her, and took the initiative to meet in the direction of the silver light

, casually pulled out the sword from the head of the forbidden army next to him, and collided with the dagger!

The sound of clanging suddenly sounded!

The sound of horseshoes in the distance is much closer!

Yu Ye has extraordinary eyesight. She watched the movement in the crowd from a long distance, guessed that something was going on, and then caught a glimpse of the shining silver light. She squinted her eyes, sat on the horse, and put her fighting red tassel He raised the gun, accumulated enough internal strength, and threw the long-gun out from a long distance.

The silver streamer flew from a distance, with the appropriate strength, it directly penetrated the guy who shot at Xu Jiao in half, the tip was silver in and red out, nailing the person to the ground without hurting Xu Jiao. Xu Jiao who fought with him.

Seeing this superb control, Xu Jiao belatedly came up with an idea——

Yu Ye is actually merciful to her on weekdays, right?

In terms of her physical strength to go to the battlefield and fight like a man, if she really wanted to torment Xu Jiao, then Xu Jiao probably would have been ruined by her.

This action of Yu Ye has a strong deterrent effect. Although she has not come close, it has already marked the place where Xu Jiao and her surroundings are already within the radiating range of Yu Ye's strength, and she still wants to seek death. come.

The assassin who was impaled seemed to know that the rest of the people would have no more chances. He looked at Xu Jiao in front of him with a bit of reluctance, and suddenly raised his voice:

"The Xu Clan! It's so brutal... Destroyed... Heavenly conscience..."

"Respecting a woman as an emperor now...is disregarding human relations, it is extremely absurd...it must be...the country will not be guaranteed..."

He exhausted all his strength to say these words, and fixed his eyes on Xu Jiao, but because of the loss of vitality, the voice behind him inevitably became low and hoarse.

Xu Jiao raised the corners of her lips, she was not afraid to meet the eyes of this dying person, she hooked her lips, leaned over to look at this person, and said slowly:

"I'm afraid this will disappoint you and the people behind you—"

"When you get to Huangquan Road, remember to look back at the prosperous world under my rule."

The other party was moved by her words, and he did not rest in peace until his death.

At the same time, Yu Ye had already rode to the front, got off the saddle, passed through the officials, and went to Xu Jiao's side, panting still: "Are you okay?"

She wanted to ask Xu Jiao why she came out of the city and why she didn't stay in the palace well, but when those words came to her lips, they ended up being concerned about her safety.

Are you all right?

Are there any injuries?

Xu Jiao shook her head and saw that there was something dry on her armor.

The blood that had dried up for a long time, could not help asking: "What about you?"

Before Yu Ye could speak, the courtiers around looked around and congratulated Yu Ye in unison, wishing her to win Daqi and return with glory!

Both of them were taken aback by the movement around them, as if they realized that there was someone else there at this moment, and no matter how much they said, it was not easy to speak in public, so they were surrounded by all the officials and walked into the palace.

Xu Jiao only had time to be alone with Yu Ye after the various procedures for welcoming Yu Ye's return were completed.

She asked her servants to prepare water, and wanted Yu Ye to take a good rest——

Unexpectedly, standing at the door of the bathroom, just after giving Lan Yan instructions on the contents of dinner, the door behind him opened again.

Xu Jiao turned her head and asked, "What's the matter? What else is there?"

Yu Ye was wearing a middle coat, and the ends of his hair were already wet. Now he gave her a condescending look with a smile on his face: "I forgot something when I think about it."

Xu Jiao: "?"

The next second, Yu Ye stretched out her long arms and hugged her into the room by the waist, and heard the other party say, "Your Highness has waited outside the city for a long time to meet the wind, and she is also full of dust and dust. She should be washed."

Xu Jiao: "I'll wait...hey! Just wait!"

Yu Ye's voice sounded slowly: "Wait, not seeing each other for a day is like three autumns. Now that I have been married for decades, I have saved it for His Highness. In addition to the trip out of the city today, are you ready?"

Xu Jiao: "No!"

Yu Ye: "Okay, then shall I start?"

Xu Jiao: "..."

……

That day, the bathroom in the Eastern Palace called for water three times.

In the evening, Xu Jiao was carried back to the inner hall by Yu Ye. At that time, the palace people had all retreated, and there were only two of them left in the room. Yu Ye saw the red marks at the corners of her eyes, and touched them lightly with his fingertips. Her body seemed to feel tired only at this time. She buried her head in Xu Jiao's neck and said softly:

"I am back."

Xu Jiao was extremely sleepy, and her mind was in chaos. She was both sleepy and tired. Hearing her voice, she snorted softly, not knowing whether it was an answer or something else. Yu Ye kissed her neck and said, "This For the rest of your life, stay here with me, okay?"

Xu Jiao vaguely heard that she was still talking, and wanted to make people shut up, so she groped her way over and blocked Yu Ye's lips with her lips.

Yu Ye was amused by her proactive gesture.

He touched her head again, and hugged her tightly in his arms: "Go to sleep."

……

Three months later.

The enthronement ceremony of King Yan begins.

Xu Jiao was called up early by the palace people, put on the golden dress and crown,

Looking down at the five-clawed golden dragon on her body, others saw it as the supreme power, but to her, it seemed like...

shackles.

It's just that she is willing to bear this country and responsibility.

Because she wants to stay here.

Stay in this story and finish walking with Yu Ye.

She turned her head and looked outside the palace door. Yu Ye was also dressed in formal clothes, but instead of a python robe, she was wearing the same golden color——

It was a gift from Xu Jiao to her.

She wants to rule the country together with Yu Ye.

The two looked at each other with the same smile.

……

"...the emperor lost his father, and he helped King Huai. King Huai presented the seal of Qi as a gift, and welcomed the emperor to ascend the throne. The whole world congratulated him. The emperor was very happy. He wanted to rule the world with King Huai. The ministers submitted three memorials and asked the emperor to take back his order. God forbid."

"After another half a decade, there was an auspicious omen in the north. In Jiyue of the same year, a fisherman in the south caught a koi. It was one foot long, golden and red all over, with two characters on it. He is the person who guards the country of Dayan. The emperor mentions co-government again, and the officials are silent, and there is no objection."

"It's the golden autumn of the year, the two emperors ascended the throne, and the name is changed to Huaining."

"In another three years, Emperor Yu personally conquered, and Chu died."

"Ten years in Huaining, the imperial capital of Daliang was destroyed, and civil strife in the imperial capital of South Korea continued."

"In the 15 years of Huaining, the four seas returned to Yan, and the world was unified."

"The two emperors worked hand in hand to rule the country together. In the following hundred years, foreign enemies dared not commit crimes, and there was never any internal strife. It is known as the 'Double Emperors Prosperity' in history."
