Chapter 272
Puff... Xiu Lei almost vomited blood: "This... who spread the rumor? I cut him off." He really wondered, how did the prince know that he liked Xiao Rong?

"I said it." Ye Anran walked out at some point, and smiled at Nishi Gongjue, intending to tell him that Yang Wei's matter had been settled.

"My lord, you can't spread rumors. When did this subordinate tell you that you like Xiaorong?" Xiu Lei explained with cold sweat all over his face.

"I heard from Nie Tian, ​​he said that you have been sympathetic to Xiaorong for a long time." Ye Anran looked at Xiu Lei with a smile and said.

"What? This old Nie, is there something wrong with your mouth? How can you just tell people... No, it's a nonsense thing. Isn't this ruining my reputation?" Xiu Lei frowned and defended himself.

"Oh? Is that so? Then you...don't like Xiao Rong? It seems that Nie Tian made a mistake." Ye Anran followed Xiu Lei's meaning and asked.

"Isn't it? He must have misremembered. I don't like Xiaorong. The Lord and the Princess Wang want to make decisions for me. Go back and beat Lao Nie and make him talk nonsense." Xiu Lei was bulging with anger.

He didn't expect that an honest person like Nie Tian would gossip like this, tell the princess about it, and tell him to put his face in front of everyone.

"Well, that's fine. Originally, I wanted to go back and ask Xiao Rong what she meant to see her attitude towards you. If it was possible, I would arrange a marriage for you. Now, since you don't have that kind of heart for Xiao Rong, then I don't have to." It's unnecessary." Ye Anran said seriously.

"Ah?" Xiu Lei regretted it to death.

"Xiu Lei, it's okay. Some girl in the palace will tell me that Xiao Rong can't do it and there is Xiao Guang, right? There is always someone you like." Ye Anran forced a smile and said.

"No, concubine, that...isn't what you said, I'm right...?" Xiu Lei hesitated when he became anxious.

Xi Gongjue understood that Ye Anran was deliberately tricking Xiu Lei, and he also looked like watching the fun, smiling without saying a word...

"My lord, my concubine, in fact, that girl Xiao Rong is not bad. Although she is not very pretty, she can do a lot of things, such as embroidery, cooking, and housework. In fact, if she... that, if she agrees, I don't object either." Xiu Lei was shy and finally got out of his heart by Ye Anran.

"At the end of the day, you still like our Xiao Rong, right?" Ye Anran asked amusedly.

"It's not like I like it, I like it... a little bit of affection, ha." Xiu Lei blushed and scratched his head in embarrassment, still stubbornly refusing to admit that he had loved Xiaorong for a long time.

"How do you like it? This king can tell that every time you see Xiaorong, you look like you want to eat her. You can admit it. With the princess making the decision for you, what are you afraid of?" Xi Gongjue was very depressed, Xiu Lei is a big man, why is he so timid about feelings, and he seems very shy, so he just explained it to him.

"Uh... lord, we can't be too explicit, can we? Be subtle." Xiu Lei grinned, showing his teeth.

"Okay, don't be poor, I'll go back and ask you about this matter, the most important thing is to see what Xiaorong means, if she doesn't want to, I have nothing to do." Ye Anran smiled.

"Master, when shall we go back to Bianjing?" Xiu Lei asked suddenly.

"I have already written a letter to the emperor. The emperor means that we are ready to go back at any time. I am just worried... I am afraid that Dugu Jialuo will not let go. After all, the loss of the leading city this time has caused heavy losses to Liuyun's army." This It's what Nishinomiya Jue is most worried about right now.

With Dugu Jialuo's stronger personality, he wouldn't give up easily, right?

So it's too early to talk about evacuating the border. Everything depends on the movement of Liuyun Kingdom.

At this time, a small guard rushed to report: "Report, my lord."

"Say."

"The spies' latest report, we found out that Liuyun Kingdom has just undergone a sudden change. Prince Dugu Jialuo has led the general back to Liuyun Capital, and the rest of the people are staying at the border. It seems that they are not violating our ambitions." The little guard responded word by word.

"So smooth? Do you know what kind of mutation happened to them?" Nishi Gongjue asked.

"It is said that Emperor Liuyun is seriously ill." The little guard said in a low voice.

"Okay, Dugu Jialuo's emperor father is seriously ill, he is naturally not in the mood to continue fighting with us, can we go?" Xiu Lei said with a smile.

"Well, I'll check it later. If the situation is true, we will return to the imperial court. But don't be careless. It will be bad if the enemy releases false news in order to paralyze us." He is not a discouraged person, so he has created a military genius at a young age.

He was careful, not letting go of any loopholes, and not giving the enemy any chance to surprise him.

So the Tianmu army stayed in the city for another night, and finally confirmed that the news of Dugu Jialuo's departure was true, so Xi Gongjue ordered the army to prepare and return to the court.

The only change is that this time several young generals who came out of blue were promoted. Yu Xuan was left in Pingcheng at the border to be the general who defended the city. Ye Anran allowed him to bring his family to Pingcheng to share the family relationship.

But Sun Feihu stayed in the leading city as a vanguard captain, and he was also very majestic. At least this black-faced man never flinched every time he charged into battle.

Wang Wenxian stayed in Pingcheng as a military adviser and helped Yuxuan to make plans together. In this way, the border defenses were well-guarded, and even if Liuyun Kingdom came to make a surprise attack again, Jue Xigong didn't have to worry about it, let alone lead troops to suppress it.

Pingcheng, Lingcheng, and the city lords of the two cities were all replaced by Nishigong Jue's cronies, and they also had the city guard general and military control.

"An Ran, this time, we are really going to leave." On the day before leaving, Xigongjue took Xigongjue's hand and sighed while standing on the peak of the collar city looking at thousands of miles of rivers and mountains.

"Yeah, although the life in the army is a bit bitter, but I quite like it, and I'm used to it. This month, I have also developed feelings for this place, and I prefer the simple villagers in Qingyou Village. If I don't miss my sister, I I really want to stay longer." Ye Anran smiled.

"There is always a chance, let's go back to Bianjing first." Xi Gongjue comforted softly.

Afterwards, Xi Gongjue's army returned to the court, and after a three-day journey, they finally arrived in Bianjing.

As soon as they returned to the palace, the two of them entered the palace non-stop. Xi Gongjue wanted to meet the emperor and explain the border affairs to the emperor, while Ye Anran bought a lot of gifts for his sister along the way.

So the husband and wife entered the palace and went about their own business...

Fuyao Palace

"The princess is auspicious." The maids of Fuyao Palace immediately bowed to Ye Anran when they saw Ye Anran.

"Get up, where is my sister?" Ye Anran asked.

"Going back to the imperial concubine, Master Zhaoyi went for a walk in the imperial garden. She said that her back has been so sore recently, so she went for a walk in the imperial garden." A maid said in a low voice.

"Oh, okay, then I'll look for her." Because she couldn't wait to see her sister, Ye Anran hurriedly put the gift in the outer hall of Fuyao Palace, and immediately walked towards the Royal Garden.

Sure enough, my sister stood in the imperial garden in a red cloak to enjoy the flowers. Bianjing in April is not so cold, and the flowers are gradually blooming, which is very beautiful.

"Sister." Ye Anran shouted excitedly.

Ye Anyao turned her head, and immediately said pleasantly, "An Ran is back?"

"Sister, I miss you so much." Ye Anran hugged her sister and said coquettishly like a child.

"Yesterday I asked the emperor, and the emperor said that you are coming soon, that's great." Ye Anyao pampered Ye Anran's head and said.

"Sister, I bought you a lot of presents along the way, and even bought a lot for the baby, let's go back and have a look." Ye Anran said impatiently.

"En." Ye Anyao nodded, followed her sister to leave, but met Concubine Ning on the way back.

Concubine Ning, who had lost her prince, looked haggard. It is said that although she lost her prince this time, the emperor restored her position, from concubine Ning to concubine. Perhaps the emperor felt pity, but recently heard that Said that the emperor hadn't visited her for a long time, not because the emperor loved the new and disliked the old, but because Concubine Ning shed tears all day long, and the emperor was not in a good mood, so the empress dowager did not allow the emperor to visit Concubine Ning, which also made her suffer.

"My wife pays respects to Concubine Ning." Ye Anran bowed.

And Ye Anyao was originally not as high as Concubine Ning, but because she was pregnant, she was granted permission by the emperor not to bow to anyone.

"Ye Zhaoyi, I heard that you are pregnant, congratulations." Although she said polite words, Concubine Ning didn't seem to have a smile on her face, and her complexion was not very good-looking.

"Thank you, Concubine Ning." Although Ye Anyao didn't like her, she still had to do her best on the surface.

"You're welcome, I hope you have the ability to keep this child, but... I don't think you have the ability." Concubine Ning sneered.

"Concubine Ning, what do you mean?" Ye Anyao didn't get angry, Ye Anran was not happy at first.

"It's nothing interesting. This palace is also a kind reminder. There are not many other things in this harem. There are many devils who kill people. I don't know how many are already dead. The little prince and princess, I think sister Zhaoyi should ask for more blessings." " Concubine Ning sneered.

"Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of my child, and I won't be as careless as your mother." Ye Anyao was not to be outdone.

Sure enough, Concubine Ning's face changed slightly, she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't get angry, she just said lightly: "Let's see."

After finishing speaking, Concubine Ning walked away swaggeringly, Ye Anran took her sister's hand: "Sister, don't think too much, Concubine Ning will be a crazy woman after losing her child, you don't have to take her words seriously."

"Well, I'm fine." Although Ye Anyao said this on the surface, she was already feeling uneasy in her heart.

Did Concubine Ning discover the culprit who killed her child?Everyone knows that Concubine Ning's accident was not accidental, and the queen mother's black cat will not go crazy for no reason. It seems that there are too many hidden secrets in it.

Following Ye Anran, Ye Anyao stroked her belly. She had lost the love she yearned for, and only hoped that the child would be born safely. This was her greatest wish.

After Xi Gongjue reported the situation to the emperor, he left the imperial study room. He wanted to go to Fuyao Palace to accompany An Ran, and also to visit Ye Anyao. There is a saying that loves the house and Wu, after falling in love with someone, maybe even the people around her like her .

But when I walked around the corner, I saw a person...

Xi Gongjue frowned, then leaned over to salute: "My servant pays my respects to the emperor's empress."

"Jue, why didn't you tell me in advance when you came back?" Shen Bilan asked affectionately.
