Xu Yan took a sip of the tea handed to her by Yingchun, rubbed her brows, and looked at the remaining memorials on the table again. Without saying anything, she directly took one from the pile of memorials as high as a hill and started reviewing.

Yingchun, who was standing behind him, looked at her like this, then looked out at the dark night, and couldn't help but said to Xu Yan: "Your Majesty, it's late at night. Why don't you go and rest for a while? After a while, the slave girl will ask you to get up to approve these papers.

Bar."

Xu Yan shook his head, continued to dip in ink, and continued to review: "If I go to rest now, it will be like last time, and I will sleep until the morning before I know it. You will not wake me up, worry about me

It’s tiring. But if these notes are not approved and saved until tomorrow, I don’t know how many things will be done tomorrow.”

When Yingchun heard Xu Yan's words, although he knew the outcome, he still couldn't help but exhort him again: "But Your Majesty, you have been so diligent and diligent in the past six years. Even after you have gone to court, you have not stopped working.

I have never had a good rest for a day while working on the government. Have you forgotten everything about what the Pingyuan Court said about you last time? You should give yourself time to rest occasionally. If you really fall down from exhaustion, wouldn't it be worth the loss? "

Xu Yan's hand paused while he was writing, and his eyes were a little distracted. Six years? Has it turned out that six years have passed? What happened in those years has been so far away from her, but she didn't feel it at all. These six years

For years, she has been repeating the life of the previous day every day. She keeps living like this day after day, paying for the country she protects and her people. She is like a walking zombie with no purpose.

There is no one traveling with you.

But fortunately, she could still use her last bit of usefulness to do something for the people of this country. She did not answer Yingchun's words and opened the next memorial again.

That night, the imperial study room was still brightly lit.

When Xu Yan finished approving the pile of memorials in front of him, he specifically asked Yingchun beside him how long it would be before the morning court. Yingchun was blessed and respectfully replied: "Your Highness, there is still one hour. I need to

Why don’t you get up and go back to the palace to take a nap now?”

Xu Yan nodded and asked Yingchun to go down and get ready. The reason why she wanted to go back to the palace was not because she wanted to rest, but because today was the day when He Xun sent her a message. She thought of the message he brought back for her last time.

, Xu Yan couldn't help but frowned.

The imperial study room was not far from the palace, and it didn't take long for her to arrive. Even though she had been the empress for six years, she still couldn't get used to the life of having to be taken care of for everything. She didn't have any elders to restrain her, so

Fortunately, I have been able to live according to her temperament.

It was the same tonight. After she pushed Yingchun and others down, she closed the palace door. Inside the palace, He Xun had been waiting here for who knows how long.

Hearing the sound of Xu Yan opening the door, He Xun immediately subconsciously stood up from the stool and knelt in front of Xu Yan to salute. Xu Yan waved her hand to let him get up. Even though she knew it was useless, she still couldn't help nagging: "

I’ve already said that you don’t need to salute when you see an orphan, why can’t you always remember it?”

He Xun scratched his head in embarrassment. The sight of Xu Yan saluting has been deeply engraved in his muscle memory, and he can't help but do it whenever he sees Xu Yan. He also wants to try to control himself, but

Found it to have no effect at all.

Xu Yan didn't want to get entangled with him on such a trivial matter, so he poured himself a cup of tea, sat down casually and said to him: "Tell me, do you have any new gains? That incident last time...

..Is there any conclusive evidence?”

He Xun nodded, and his expression became serious: "There was news from the Liang Kingdom a few days ago that they want to join forces with Your Majesty to deal with the traitor Liang Yu. I wonder what your Majesty means?"

Xu Yan didn't expect this unexpected gain. She raised her eyebrows and said with interest in her eyes: "Oh, it's really strange. Aren't the father and son always arrogant and think that no one can defeat Liang Guo?

Why can’t you even defeat Liang Yu?”

He Xun didn't speak. He understood that Xu Yan was just teasing. Several countries had heard about Liang Yu's strength. They were all watching from the other side, watching the internal fighting in Liang. In this case, it was a wise choice not to take any side.

.He Xun felt that Xu Yan would make the same decision as the monarchs of several other countries.

But what he never expected was that Xu Yan actually replied categorically: "Tell them that I am on Liang Yu's side." He Xun didn't react at all when he heard Xu Yan's words. He even doubted himself.

Is there something wrong with my ears?

It was Xu Yan calling him out that brought him back to his senses. He Xun hurriedly saluted Xu Yan to cover up his rudeness. He Xun said to Xu Yan hesitantly: "Your Majesty, is this decision too hasty?

After all, the Southern Kingdom of the Western Region and other countries have not made a clear statement. Moreover, the two of them are still in power in Liang State. The ministers in the DPRK will not agree to publicly support a person who is currently considered a traitor in Liang State."

Xu Yan raised her lips and said to He Xun: "Don't you understand this? I believe that although Liang Yu looks a little unreliable, he will not be vague when doing things. Since he has

If you are ready for rebellion, then he will not lose. Support him now, and when he takes the throne in the future, it will definitely be of great benefit to Xu Guo."

Hearing Xu Yan's tone, He Xun obviously had not considered the possibility of Liang Yu's failure. However, in this situation, he still chose to keep his mouth shut. According to his experience with her in the past six years, Xu Yan was

He will never change his mind easily because of other people's suggestions. He Xun does not intend to get too entangled in this issue. After all, there are still people in the court who restrain Xu Yan.

So He Xun nodded, paused and continued: "There is one more thing. There was new progress in the matter last time. My subordinates found that there was a painter painting a flower party scene next to Liuhu Lake, and

He happened to draw the young man's appearance."

Xu Yan looked at him with burning eyes. The joy on her face could not be suppressed, and she hurriedly asked He Xunfa: "Where is that painting? Have you brought it? Have you read it in advance? Is it him?"

He Xun was a little overwhelmed by Xu Yan's series of questions. He could only answer the questions he still remembered: "My subordinate bought this painting back. The young master in the painting does have some similarities with that one.

But I haven’t seen him for many years, so I can’t be sure of the person in the painting..."

Before he finished speaking, Xu Yan stood in front of him, looked at him with bright eyes, stretched out his hand and said, "Where is the painting? Where is the painting?"

Looking at Xu Yan like this, He Xun's ears suddenly turned red, and his words became even more stuttering: "Give...to Your Majesty." As soon as he stretched out his hand, Xu Yan took it away.

.He looked at Xu Yan who turned back to take down the painting, and the joy in his heart could not help but burst out: So cute, Your Majesty is so cute!

Xu Yan at the other end opened the painting and frowned as she carefully observed the handsome young man in white clothes in the painting. She looked at him vertically and horizontally but could not identify him with the person in her memory. I don't know.

Why, there was a faint voice in her heart telling her that this person was not him. Even after six years, she could clearly know that this was not him.

She sighed, threw the painting to He Xun, who was standing aside in a daze, and said, "Let's continue checking in another place, it's not him." He Xun was stunned, picked up the painting, and then stepped back.

At the same time, Chen Qingmo looked at the mature and steady man in front of him, rolled his eyes and said, "Are you really not going to see her? If you don't see her, you'll be afraid that you won't be able to hold on and start the draft. Don't regret it then."
