She said she didn't want to, but she had naturally relaxed and leaned on his shoulder, closing her eyes.
When she returned to the palace and came to see him without washing her face, who would believe that she didn't miss him?!
Looking sideways at the little man leaning on his arm, He Lanji's eyes were as gentle as water, showing deep affection.
Putting down the fruit plate in his hand, he gently moved her into his arms, carefully carried her back to the dormitory, and placed her in his arms.
In the room, a frightened mouse panicked and got into the mouse hole, huddled in the dark, but still looked at the man and woman outside the hole with a pair of small eyeballs.
He Lanji's gaze passed over the mouse hole in the corner of the room, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

After the war ended, the northwest county returned to its former prosperity. Merchants were profit-seeking and returned to the northwest corridor one after another to seize the time to make money before winter came.
Chu Tianjiao was still busy with government affairs during the day, and at night he went to the other courtyard to accompany He Lanji and practice martial arts.
It seems that everything is back to how it was before.
In the capital, He Lanxuan had naturally also received the news. Knowing that the war in the northwest county had been calmed down, he was also filled with mixed emotions.
I am glad that the northwest is peaceful and God bless the country to be naturally peaceful.
What's worrying is that Chu Tianjiao's ability is even far beyond his imagination. He can easily break his decentralization policy and use this battle to win the support of the people and the army in the northwest county.
Of course, although he was worried, He Lanxuan still issued an imperial edict to reward Chu Tianjiao for his service in protecting the country. He was given the title of first-class lady and was given a lot of silk, gold, silver and jewelry.
Chu Tianjiao knew that he was just pretending, but she still smiled happily. Seeing that winter had arrived and the New Year was approaching, she ordered people to distribute these silks. Everyone in the house made several new sets of clothes, and naturally they also made some new clothes for Dan.
I quickly made a lot of winter clothes.
During this time, there was another thing that Chu Tianjiao didn't know.
That was the matter that Shenzong sent people to the northwest county to secretly investigate, because it happened that Chu Tianjiao sent troops to visit Guancheng on those days. Elder Shenzong and several of his disciples checked it out, but the news they got was that the little princess had not found Helan Ji.
.
After lingering for several days, the elder had no choice but to return with his disciples without success.
On this day, Chu Tianjiao was discussing with several ministers about the distribution of grain to Wangguan and other towns due to heavy snowfall in the county, when he saw a guard coming in to announce that he was a visitor from the Chu family.
After Chu Tianjiao heard this, he secretly felt a little surprised.
Since she left the Chu family, the Chu family only sent someone to send a congratulatory gift once. As a result, the person who gave the gift was scolded by her and left the house without even staying.
Those guys had squeezed her out before, and then wanted to use her position as princess to rise to power. She would not give them a good look.
More than half a year later, they actually sent someone here again. Could it be that they were here to curry favor again?!
"Grain distribution is related to people's livelihood, so there must be no delay!" He waved to several ministers to retreat. Chu Tianjiao lazily tugged at his fur-trimmed cotton robe, "Go, invite people from the Chu family in, and let me take a look.
, what tricks are they playing!"
There was the sound of footsteps outside, and not long after, the red felt curtain in the hall was opened, and two young men and women wearing big cloaks were led in by the guards from outside the hall. When they saw who was coming, Chu Tianjiao's face suddenly showed surprise.
He stood up from the chair, hurriedly ran down the steps, and walked in front of the two of them, "Smelly girl, why are you here!"
