"Oh?" Xuanyuan Yao raised his thick eyebrows, indicating that he could continue.
"After the Queen got married, she never returned home. She missed her day and night and fell ill several times. This time the army won and returned triumphantly. Can you please ask the Emperor for permission to allow the Queen to return home to visit the bride?" Baili Xing knelt down and said,
With sincerity and fear, he kowtowed again and again.
Now is indeed a good time to bring this up.
The emperor probably won't refuse.
"I also guessed that you would say this. Hey, my dear, please wake up. I have always been inseparable from the queen and refused to allow her to stay away. I neglected the connection between your family members." After thinking for a moment, Xuanyuan Yao said
He smiled kindly and said, "Let's do this. After I return to Beijing, I will get married to the Queen. If I find an opportunity, I will accompany her to visit her house. How about that?" [
Baili Xing's face fell instantly, and he suppressed his disappointment, "The Emperor has many things to do every day. If you are too busy, it doesn't matter if you ask the Queen to go back to the palace alone."
If Emperor Long Zhe had come with him, he would have been by Jixiang's side all the time, and it would be difficult to find a chance to talk alone. Then the queen's return would not be of much significance, and her family would not be able to talk to her at all.
"How can that be done? According to popular saying, I can be regarded as the old lady's son-in-law. This is not an exaggeration." Xuanyuan Yao smiled so thoughtlessly that he blocked up all the conversation, leaving Bailixing speechless.
Apart from kneeling down to express gratitude, it would be disrespectful for him to ask for more.
Alas, let’s leave it at that for now and think of a solution later.
.............
Only about 200,000 troops were left to guard the border towns in preparation for future troubles.
After another half month, the emperor and empress set off back to Beijing.
There was no rush anyway, Xuanyuan Yao didn't want to leave early this time, so he and Ji Xiang nestled in the dragon chariot and looked at the scenery on the roadside every day, which was quite leisurely.
