The heavy rain in Jinyun City never stopped. Yuan Miaoyi stood in front of the window of the inner room and watched the raindrops flowing continuously from the eaves into the soil, forming small puddles.

Her expression was still very calm, nothing unusual could be seen. But there are many complicated things in Jinyun City, and with Xiao Yunyue's absence, Yuan Miaoyi obviously has to bear more pressure.

What's more, she couldn't help but worry about Xiao Yunyue, whose whereabouts were unknown at this time, so she had obviously lost weight these days, and the bag hanging between her arms looked a little empty.

The military affairs in the city are now under the control of Gong Xushan. He can sit in the position of Fan Yang Jiedushi, obviously not just because he came out of the Xiao family's army.

In this way, Fan Wuzhao can free up some hands to help Yuan Miaoyi handle some affairs. With them here, even though many people have smelled the coming storm, everything in Jinyun City is still in order.

The news of Xiao Yunyue's departure from Jinyun City was well concealed. Even the capital didn't know about it yet, let alone the people in the city.

There has been an answer to Gong Xushan's letter to Beijing. The Empress accepted their speculation and asked Wu Housi to follow the message.

Ji Huaiyuan was also sent to Yuan Miaoyi's side by Yuan Lingheng. Along with him, there was also a letter from home written by Yuan Lingheng and a letter from the eldest princess.

As Yuan Miaoyi guessed, no big trouble occurred in Beijing.

Although the prince has never been in charge of the country, he is naturally not a coward after being chosen as his successor by Emperor Jingyuan.

What's more, after he was established as the Eastern Palace, he received the teachings that a prince should have. Emperor Jingyuan did not guard against his son, so the prince had gradually become more familiar with government affairs, and Yuan Lingheng could spare some time to write letters to his sister.

When the prince came to court, the palace announced that the emperor had caught a cold and needed to take a good rest. Emperor Jingyuan's desperate look was so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The weather was changing drastically at this time, and Emperor Jingyuan was suffering from a minor illness, so no one suspected it.

The only people who know the inside story are Liangtai, or the emperor's confidants like Yuan Lingheng, and these people will naturally keep it secret.

There are still two Dinghai magic needles, Princess Jinyang and Duke Ding, in the court, so there can be no trouble easily.

The Queen is watching in the palace. Over the years, Queen Zhaoming has spoken out in the inner palace and is quite authoritative. The inner palace is naturally like an iron barrel, and no one else can spy on it.

Compared with Beijing, Yuan Lingheng was obviously more worried about his sister in Jinyun City. Even Yu Fengshu, who was raising a baby, was also worried. The most mentioned thing in the letter was to tell her to take care of herself.

Yuan Miaoyi did not tell the eldest princess of Jinyang that Xiao Yunyue had left Jinyun City, so the letter written by the eldest princess also asked the couple to be more careful. She and their father were in the court, so there was no need to worry.

Yuan Miaoyi carefully kept these two letters. If there was no trouble in the capital, she could devote more energy to Jinyun City.

That day, she and Gongxu Shan chatted in the study all night, and made clear arrangements for Jinyun City. Even the city's defenses were readjusted.

Aunt Cui came in from the ear room, brought a cup of hot soup to Yuan Miaoyi, and also brought a thin cloak.

She looked at Yuan Miaoyi's slightly pale face and was really worried and said: "Madam, while you have nothing to do now, you can eat something. You haven't had much rest in the past few days, and your face is really ugly. ”

Aunt Cui sleeps in the cubicle outside Yuan Miaoyi at night, and you can often hear her restless stirring at night.

Not only that, Yuan Miaoyi's appetite has dropped drastically in the past few days. Even if she eats the food she loved before, she will say she has lost her appetite after just a few bites.

Yuan Miaoyi gathered the cloak around her body and shook her head gently: "I'm fine. Go and do your work, mama. I can't eat at the moment." Her fingers holding the cloak were also very pale and slender. Thin, bulging joints can be seen when exerting force.

Aunt Cui was really worried about her, so she added: "Then, why don't you send a medical order to come to the house to have a look? I know that you are worried about the young marquis, but if you continue like this, if the young marquis sees you, he will probably kill you. I feel so bad.”

"No." Yuan Miaoyi shook her head and said, "The current situation can't afford any complications. Besides, I know my health well and nothing major will happen."

If she sends a medical order to the palace, some bad speculations will immediately arise in the city.

The calmer and nonchalant Yuan Miaoyi is at this time, the more stable Jinyun City will be.

Xiao Yunyue's entrustment of Jinyun City to her was obviously not to test whether there was enough trust between the couple. On the contrary, if he did not trust Yuan Miaoyi's ability, he would never dare to leave Jinyun City like this. Miaoyi didn't want to betray his trust.

Aunt Cui sighed, knowing that she could not persuade her, so she could only let someone bring a small stove and put it in the room to warm the bowl of soup.

Aunt Cui couldn't persuade Yuan Miaoyi, just like Yuan Miaoyi couldn't persuade the people around her.

Originally, Yuan Miaoyi wanted to send Mother Cui, Bai Zhi and the others out of Jinyun City a few days ago, but the people who always obeyed her sternly refused, even Bi Ying, who came to her later, refused.

Aunt Cui even said that if Yuan Miaoyi didn't let her stay with her, she would turn around and die. After hearing this, Yuan Miaoyi could only give up.

Everyone knew that Jinyun City might be about to face a war, but the more times this happened, the less they could leave Yuan Miaoyi's side.

Yuan Miaoyi only looked at the rain for a while, then went back to the inner room to read the paperwork that seemed like she would never finish it.

Before I had read a few books, I heard hurried footsteps coming from inside and outside again.

Yuan Miaoyi stood up, opened the door and found a embarrassed Ji Huaiyuan outside.

Almost all of his body was wet from the rain, even his hair. As soon as Yuan Miaoyi saw his appearance, she knew that he must have arrived on a fast horse.

Yuan Miaoyi asked while asking people to get hot water and find some clothes that Xiao Yunyue had never worn for Ji Huaiyuan to change into, "What's going on?"

Ji Huaiyuan had just managed to catch his breath, and then said: "There has just been news from outside the pass that the royal army of Tata'er tribe has made a sudden move and seems to be heading towards Jinyun City."

Yuan Miaoyi's brows furrowed into a frown, she opened the door and raised her voice to invite Master Gong and Master Fan to come to the mansion to discuss important matters.

She asked people to take Ji Huaiyuan to wash and change clothes. The battle was about to begin, and it would be troublesome if he caught the cold at this time.

Yuan Miaoyi herself stood in front of the table, looking solemnly at the unfinished documents, and then sighed.

What is supposed to come will eventually come.

I'm sorry, I even took two days off. All the social activities for the whole year are really in these two days. I came home yesterday and slept on the sofa all night with my phone in hand. I was too tired and started updating normally.
