Yuan Chen smiled. He knew even if she didn't tell her. He said, "What about your past life? What wish did you make?"
Xiao Jialan looked at him and said, "I want to be with you forever."
Yuan Chen's heart moved and he said: "The river god must have seen your wish, so he gave us a second chance, don't you think so?"
Xiao Jialan felt that what he said made sense. She put her arms around Yuan Chen's waist and said, "Yuan Chen, you must be well. I don't want to lose you again."
Yuan Chen touched her head and said distressedly: "Silly girl, I will not leave you this time. I want Shili Hongzhuang to marry you, and I will also watch our Yi'er be born, and then educate him and watch him."
When he grows up, help him find his Yanyan, watch them get married and have children, we will enjoy having grandchildren and grow old together.
We will be together in the next life, the life after that, and life after life."
Xiao Jialan looked at him and said, "Are you too greedy?"
Yuan Chen said: "I want to be greedy this time." He squeezed Xiao Jialan's hand and said: "I only want you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of fireworks suddenly exploded in the sky, decorating the night sky with colorful colors.
Xiao Jialan looked up at the bright fireworks, with a smile on her lips, just let them be greedy this time, I believe God will fulfill them.
The night market lantern show didn't end until midnight, and everyone returned home happily.
Xiao Jialan and Yuan Chen did not ride in the carriage. They walked hand in hand on the deserted street, and the moonlight illuminated their silhouettes.
Soon they arrived in front of the Duke's Mansion. Xiao Jialan stopped and reached out to take off the mask on Yuan Chen's face, with stars in his eyes.
She smiled and stood up on her tiptoes to kiss his lips and said, "You kissed me here in the previous life. This time it's me."
In the previous life, Yuan Chen sent her back to his mansion, and it was in front of the mansion that he kissed her.
It was this kiss that made her never think about returning to Nanyue and strengthened her heart.
When Yuan Chen's eyes moved, he stretched out his big hands to support Xiao Jialan's waist, lowered his head and kissed her.
It was quiet everywhere, with only a ray of moonlight shining on them, gentle and affectionate.
Time seemed to have stopped at this moment, freezing into a beautiful picture.
I don't know how long it took before Yuan Chen let go of the person. He looked at the person in his arms with a heavy breath, his eyes full of inextricable tenderness.
He said: "Go back quickly."
Xiao Jialan smiled and teased: "His Royal Highness, your temperament has changed. Haven't you always regarded the Duke's Mansion as your home? Why are you so outspoken today?"
Yuan Chen saw that she was laughing at him, so he reached out and rubbed her head and said, "There are some state affairs that need to be dealt with in the house, otherwise you think I want to go back."
Xiao Jialan chuckled and said, "Then don't work until it's too late."
With that said, she waved towards Yuan Chen and then entered the house.
Seeing the door of Ye Mansion closing, Yuan Chen turned around and asked Feng Mian: "What's so urgent?"
Just now on the street, he received a signal from Feng Mian, saying that he had something important to report.
Feng Mian replied: "I have received news that the new emperor of Nanyue is deploying troops to attack our Beichen. General Mu has sent a message to Your Majesty, I am afraid that Mr. Mu is about to go to the battlefield."
Yuan Chen paused, frowned and said, "Why is this uncle so impatient?"
Feng Mian's lips twitched and he asked, "What should we do now?"
Yuan Chen's eyes were heavy and he said: "Go back first and let's talk about it tomorrow."
This is a tricky matter. Although they and Nanyue intend to seek peace, Nanyue's eldest brother-in-law doesn't know.
He was determined to attack Beichen, but Nanyue and Beichen were far apart, and he couldn't communicate with his uncle. This was really difficult!
