After Bai Chi was taken away, he did not encounter any difficulties. Even after leaving the imperial study, there was a sedan chair waiting for him.

When he arrived at the Empress Dowager's palace and saw the Queen was there, he immediately understood.

Sure enough, the Queen Mother first called people over, checked the place up and down, and asked people to bring food and drinks, and then she finally remembered the important matter.

She didn't force him to separate from Xie Yunxiao, but just asked him if he really liked Xie Yunxiao. After hearing Bai Chi say that he really liked him and fell in love with him at first sight at the city gate that day, she didn't say much.

Even the emperor who was furious in the imperial study accepted it very quickly at this moment, and didn't even show any sign of anger.

After looking at them, it was the prince who directly caught them and had the most intense reaction.

In the end, the emperor just nodded.

"As long as Chi'er likes it, it's fine. If you get tired of it in the future, just leave. With my brother here, no one will dare to say anything wrong about you."

The Queen beside her also smiled and said, "I think that General Xie is not bad either. He has status, achievements, and more importantly, he is also good-looking. He is worthy of Chi'er."

The Queen Mother then added, "Let the imperial physician give General Xie a good look and treat his injuries and any hidden wounds he may have sustained during martial arts training. This way, he can spend more time with Chi'er in the future."

The three of them had no intention of stopping him at all, and everything was based on King Xian's own thoughts.

I guess he deliberately got angry in the imperial study just to show Xie Yunxiao, right?

When I saw the projection screen sent by Xiao Hei, it was the part where the prince threatened Xie Yunxiao.

A warm feeling flashed through Bai Chi's heart. With such a family, it was no wonder that the original owner died of depression after knowing that his brother's death was actually related to himself.

"Mother, Royal Brother, and Royal Sister-in-law, rest assured. Although I adore Yunxiao, we are together only because we both love each other. If one of us changes his mind, I will not let myself be compromised."

After hearing what he said, the three of them felt relieved and started chatting again. A moment later, the prince came with the military order.

The five of them were having a great time in the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace. Bai Chi knew that Xie Yunxiao was just outside the door. He also knew that his mother, his brother and others wanted to intimidate Xie Yunxiao, so they did this on purpose.

But it was not appropriate to say anything more at this time. After all, they were threatening and testing Xie Yunxiao for his sake.

Fortunately, when he set out in the morning, he guessed that his royal brother and his mother would not let Xie Yunxiao go easily, so he put the bearskin cloak on Xie Yunxiao in advance.

Not only did he have a bearskin cloak, but he also had knee pads. Fortunately, the emperor took into consideration that he was a meritorious official who had just returned to Beijing, so he just left him outside the door without punishing him by kneeling or beating him with a stick.

We weren't even in the yard, but under the eaves, so we didn't have to worry about snow.

After standing outside for a full hour, it was dark and Xie Yunxiao was finally called in by the nanny beside the empress dowager.

Not to mention Xie Yunxiao, even Bai Chi breathed a sigh of relief.

Two hours was the limit of what he could endure. If his mother didn't speak up, he would go and bring someone in.

After entering the house, Xie Yunxiao did not dare to be presumptuous and bowed to the few people obediently. A young eunuch placed a brazier next to him, and at the same time, palace maids came in one after another carrying the imperial meal.

Bai Chi wanted to go over but was stopped by the palace maid.

"Your Highness, please wait for the general to warm himself up first. Be careful if you catch a cold."

Xie Yunxiao also tried to stop him with his eyes. Although he was wearing a cloak, he still felt a little cold after standing outside for an hour without moving.

Bai Chi was helpless, but fortunately it was fine after a while, and the emperor then signaled everyone to take a seat.

Xie Yunxiao sat properly below Bai Chi, opposite the empress and the crown prince, while the emperor and the empress dowager sat above.

Finally, the few of them stopped bothering Xie Yunxiao and only asked about his affairs at the border, or his experiences during the war, etc.

Xie Yunxiao breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he had passed the test of the emperor and the empress dowager, but he still replied very seriously. Apart from helping Bai Chi serve the dishes, he hardly ate anything himself.

Bai Chi couldn't stand it anymore and took the initiative to feed him, which in turn gave him a silly smile.

When they finally came out of the palace, it was already two o'clock in the morning.

Almost at the moment of leaving the palace, Xie Yunxiao's tense body collapsed instantly, and he hugged Bai Chi's waist tightly, rested his chin on Bai Chi's shoulder, and took a deep breath.

"That's great! I was so scared! I originally thought that His Majesty and the Queen Mother would not agree."

In response, Bai Chi chuckled.

"Don't worry, I told you. My mother and my brother won't stop me from loving the person I like."

Today's series of operations were just to remind Xie Yunxiao that even though he was a great general, as long as Prince Xian was not happy, he was just a great general, nothing more.

Others didn't know about the mental contract between the two, so naturally they weren't as confident as Bai Chi, who knew that Xie Yunxiao would never betray him.

Those family members were just using their own methods to protect Prince Xian, that's all.

Xie Yunxiao nodded to indicate that he understood, but he knew in his heart that just because Ah Chi said so, he wouldn't be nervous.

He was very worried, fearing that His Majesty and the Queen Mother would not agree, or would grant Achi a marriage.

He even thought about it. If His Majesty really granted Achi a marriage, he would go and snatch the bride away, then take the banknotes and Achi with him and wander around the world!

He almost went over the entire process of the wedding robbery in his mind, but fortunately, the thing he worried about did not happen.

Then he heard Ah Chi ask him: "The military token was taken away by the emperor, do you regret it?"

Xie Yunxiao shook his head repeatedly: "Anyway, I have military merits, so it's not a disgrace to my family. Besides, it's a peaceful and prosperous time now, so anyone can go to guard the border."
