In the fifteenth year of Tianji, it is the twelfth day of the seventh month.
Three days have passed since Wei Changtian went to see Li Qi for the last time.
There are still three days left before the Ghost Festival on July 15th.
Wei Changtian had been paying attention to what was going on in Tianlao for the past three days, so he naturally knew that Li Qi had not seen Yu Pingjun yet.
What the hell, have you changed your mind again?
Or does he have other plans?
Wei Changtian was very irritated by Li Qi's behavior of "going back on his word", but he was too lazy to urge the former.
As I said before, this shit has nothing to do with me in the first place. Since the "parties" don't care about it, then just do whatever you want.
The emperor was not worried about the eunuch, and he was not a eunuch, so of course he would not worry so much about Li Qi.
Anyway, it’s almost July 15th as promised.
As long as there is nothing wrong with Fengyuan City by then, he will immediately ask Li Qi to fulfill his previous promise and return to Shuzhou.
As for Li Wutong... marrying a princess of a country is not a trivial matter. It requires a lot of attention and preparation. In a big way, it may even affect Fengning's diplomatic relations.
However, the two countries are currently at war, and there has been a "shattering scandal" like Yu Pingjun's in Dafeng. It is definitely not suitable to "marry a princess" in a short period of time, so we can only put it aside for the time being and wait until the time is ripe.
Of course, Wei Changtian had already discussed this matter with Li Wutong, and also asked the latter if he wanted to follow him back to Shuzhou during this period.
Li Wutong wanted to follow Wei Changtian from the bottom of his heart, but in the end he chose to stay in Fengyuan.
Perhaps she knew that this was also the time when Li Qi needed him most.
"..."
"Master, I'm waiting for you to come back and marry me..."
The candlelight flickered slightly, and two people sat facing each other in the bedroom.
Although it would be four or five days before Wei Changtian left Shaohuo, Li Wutong would "remind" him almost every day, as if he was very afraid that the former would forget about it.
"Princess, don't worry, I will come back to marry you when Da Feng and Daning stop fighting."
Nodding, facing Li Wutong's "concern" Wei Changtian was not impatient, but just sighed with some meaning.
"quickly."
"..."
soon?
Li Wutong didn't know why Wei Changtian was so sure that the war between the two countries would end soon, so he just regarded it as a good wish.
She also smiled and nodded, as if she was also looking forward to all this passing quickly.
No more wars, the world will be at peace.
At that time, she can marry Wei Changtian in a graceful manner, and from now on she will no longer be the princess of Dafeng, but the daughter-in-law of the Wei family.
You can go to Shuzhou and see the beautiful scenery, local customs and customs there, you can meet the girl Liu Shi who is also a monster in Wei Changtian's mouth, and you can live a peaceful life.
If Wei Changtian didn't dislike it, he would have many more children.
They are both boys and girls. I will not hide anything from them. I will tell them that demons are the same as humans. There is no difference except that they live longer...
"Pfft~"
Thinking again of the words Wei Changtian used to comfort him, Li Wutong couldn't help but smile.
Looking at the confused man opposite her, she didn't explain why she was laughing. She just slowly moved closer and gently rested her head on Wei Changtian's chest.
The moonlight outside the window is just right, and the birds are chirping loudly.
"Princess, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I just suddenly felt... you are so good to me."
...
...
Daning, Yuanzhou, Fengxian.
"Da da da, da da da..."
The intensive sound of horse hooves came from far and near, piercing the tranquility of the night.
As a small town where more than 400,000 Daning soldiers are stationed, it has been so peaceful since the Dafeng army retreated to Yuanzhou City. It has been a full month now.
For a month, the soldiers had nothing to fight. They were not allowed to advance or retreat. Naturally, there would be "militants" who were not willing to do this. Memorials asking for war would fall on Ning Yongnian's desk every few days, and then they would be written down again.
The latter rejected them one by one.
The emperor's order had to be obeyed.
Since the emperor forbids fighting, the soldiers stationed in Feng County could only climb the city wall every day and stare at the empty wasteland in a daze, not knowing what they were expecting.
The war came to an abrupt end, and the wait was unclear.
They thought that days like this would last for a long time.
But as Ning Yongnian's holy chariot quietly arrived in Feng County late at night, the huge gear that could influence the fate of a country finally began to turn slowly.
Each gear is tightly interlocked with each other. There is no gap for accommodation and detours, and there is no chance of breathing.
It rolled towards Yuanzhou City slowly and heavily, bit by bit, unstoppably.
"..."
"Youjia, let's go."
The night is as dark as ink, and there are no stars or moon in the night sky.
Standing on a low mountain, Ning Yongnian looked at the black shadow gradually disappearing under his feet, shook his head and looked back.
Youjia, who was wearing a black dress, stood beside him. After a moment of hesitation, she suddenly asked softly: "Your Majesty, what are these people going to do?"
"Do something big."
Ning Yongnian casually gave an answer that said, "It means I didn't say it." Ning Yongnian turned to look at You Jia and said with a smile, "You should know that you shouldn't ask these things."
"I know my mistake!"
With a thump in her heart, Youjia immediately knelt down on the ground without hesitation: "I hope the emperor will forgive me!"
"..."
"Get up."
Ning Yongnian shook his head: "If you really want to know, I can actually tell you."
"I, I don't dare..."
Youjia didn't get up, her head was lowered.
But at the next moment, a hand suddenly grasped her chin and raised her face slightly.
"After a few days, you will know everything."
"..."
A few days later?
What will be announced then?
Could this matter be related to Mr. Wei?
You Jia looked up at Ning Yongnian, who had a calm expression, but she was thinking about Wei Changtian in her heart.
She was a little afraid that Wei Changtian would be involved in such a conspiracy, but she knew that she could not ask anymore.
"Yes, I understand."
After a long silence, a smile finally appeared on You Jia's face.
Ning Yongnian, on the other hand, still had the same expression of neither sadness nor joy as before. The hand holding Yu Jia's chin slowly loosened his grip, and then spread his palm upward in front of the latter.
"..."
It is very obvious what such an action means.
In an instant, Youjia's pupils suddenly shrank, and she struggled several times in her heart.
However, after being silent for a while, she finally stretched out her hand tremblingly and gently placed it on Ning Yongnian's palm.
"Hula~"
The black dress was swaying, and Ning Yongnian used a little force on his hands to lift You Jia up from the ground.
But after doing this, he did not let go of his hand immediately. Instead, he looked at Youjia who was biting her lip and said softly:
"Youjia, actually I've always been curious about something."
"You told me before that no matter what happens, you are my people and Longwei's people."
"I want to ask you, do these words still count now?"
