Liu Chun immediately lost his previous arrogance. Seeing that Pei Zhiyuan came with a guard team, he did not dare to speak openly.
He raised his hand slightly and said with a wry smile, "Anyway, I have brought your Majesty's message."
Xue Yu disdainfully let go of Liu Chun, straightened his clothes, and took Lin Mu's hand again.
According to the instructions of the wedding master of ceremonies, they had to perform the wedding ceremony of Yanyang Kingdom.
Lin Si led Pei Zhiyuan and Shen Xu to sit in the guest seats.
Pei Zhiyuan grabbed Shen Xu's hand lovingly, "Are you cold?"
"It's not as cold as our Rock City." Shen Xu sat next to him and smiled faintly.
The silver necklace she wore was very beautiful, with lively cat's eyes and beautiful and luxurious hairpins, which sparkled brightly.
Even though she said she wasn't cold, Pei Zhiyuan still lifted up his sable-collared cloak and wrapped her in it like a cat, as if protecting a treasure.
"Fifth Aunt, you are so domineering." Lin Fuxue held Xue Yu's arm affectionately and led her to salute.
"My fifth uncle is so lucky."
"You're such a sweet girl." Xue Yu, with a red veil on her head, gently patted Lin Fuxue's hand and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, your uncle and aunt will protect you."
"Um."
Liu Chun was worried that he would be detained if he stayed for too long, so he quickly and quietly left the table.
The guards of Xiling City did not stop him. Although refusing the imperial edict might cause a break with the royal court of Yanyang Kingdom, with the promises of the Fifth Madam and the Regent of Haoyue Kingdom, everyone felt a little relieved.
Not long after, the ceremony was over, and Shen Xu sat with Xue Yu in the bridal chamber for a while.
She brought a letter from Xue Yan, telling Xue Yu not to worry about the governance of the north and that he could live peacefully in Xiling City.
After a while, Xue Yan will return to the three northern prefectures and bring back his family from Beihai Kingdom.
Xue Yu said with a hint of regret, I didn't expect that you would be with Pei Zhiyuan. I liked you the most in the past and wanted to be with you no matter what.
But now, his temper has been worn down in the Beihai Kingdom, and he finally compromised with the Beihai Princess.
Shen Xu smiled calmly. In the first half of the year, she and Pei Zhiyuan went to Beihai Country to see Xue Yan and gave him a brand new prosthetic limb.
His little daughter had just been born, a soft and tender little ball of milk with a pair of crystal clear blue eyes.
He said it was as blue as the sky of the North Star.
The princess of the North Sea did not tame the noble northern wolf, but gave up her pride for him.
The arrogant wolf soul was eventually moved by his lovely children and gave up his ambition to pursue freedom.
The birth of a new life made him find a new meaning in life.
In the second year after Shen Xu implemented the goat plan, large tracts of pasture in Beihai Kingdom were destroyed, the land became barren, and a large number of livestock starved to death. An unprecedented famine broke out in Beihai Kingdom.
In the eastern part of the North Sea Kingdom, agriculture was well developed, and the nobles maliciously raised grain prices to make money, causing some tribes that mainly engaged in animal husbandry to rise up in rebellion.
Under the leadership of the old noble Baili Yan, the size of the Western Freedom Army grew day by day. Three of the five major tribes rebelled and fought fiercely with the imperial court.
The war has been going on for more than a year.
This plan of Haoyue Kingdom not only brought down the power of Beihai Kingdom without any manpower, but also helped the Kingdom to recover most of the silver originally spent on the purchase of goats through the sale of weapons and food, making a huge profit.
It can be regarded as revenge for the sneak attack that year.
Xue Yu held Shen Xu's hand, "Lady Prime Minister, if war really breaks out..."
"Don't worry, we will not forget Lin Mu's contribution to the north. Behind you is the entire Haoyue Kingdom."
Xue Yu stroked her slightly bulging belly and said, "My husband actually cares about Yanyang Country and doesn't want the war to spread."
Shen Xu put his hand on her belly and smiled happily, "You are pregnant too?"
Xue Yu nodded shyly and murmured, "I hope the war will end soon."
"don’t worry……"
…
Not long after, Fu Yi and his group also arrived at the banquet.
"Brother Yi, you're here." Lin Fuxue came forward happily.
"Yeah." Fu Yi was dressed in a smoky black gauze dress and his iconic obsidian mask.
Seeing Lin Fuxue coming towards him, he smiled and said in a low, magnetic voice, "It's quite cold here. It seems I'm late."
"It's not too late." Lin Fuxue smiled faintly and looked behind him.
"Hey, where are Brother Yan and Sister Qingqing? Why aren't they here? I clearly asked Ning'er to pick them up."
"They delivered the betrothal gifts to your house on my behalf." Fu Yi held her hands, his tone calm but sincere.
"Xue'er, I want to marry you."
"Ah." Lin Fuxue's face suddenly turned red, and she said coquettishly, "Brother Yi, what are you talking about?"
Lin Liu, who came over to greet them, patted Fu Yi's arm gently and said with a smile, "Fu family boy, if you don't come to propose marriage, my eldest niece will be snatched away by the emperor."
"What?"
Lin Fuxue told him about the imperial edict she had just received. She said with a hint of excitement, "Brother Yi, let me tell you, my Fifth Aunt is truly domineering. We were originally worried that she would be distant from us because she was from Haoyue...
And then there's the regent of Haoyue Country. His aura of superiority as soon as he entered the room nearly frightened the fat eunuch delivering the imperial edict. With just two or three words, he drove away the emperor's men.
Fu Yi's lips tightened, and he tightened his grip on Lin Fuxue's hand. He said coldly, "I won't let you enter the palace. There's no need for Haoyue Nation to interfere in the affairs of our Yanyang Nation."
Lin Liu was only three years older than Fu Yi, and he smiled innocently, "Okay, okay, quickly marry my niece, so that she won't be noticed by others.
I don't understand your political stance, I only know that you and my eldest niece are in love, and no one, not even the gods, can break us up."
"Okay, Sixth Uncle." Fu Yi nodded, gently holding Lin Fuxue's hand, and said with a little guilt: "It's just that the war is not over yet, I'm afraid it will be hard for Xue'er."
"Brother Yi, I want to face it with you." Lin Fuxue held Fu Yi's hand with a sweet smile.
"Yeah." Fu Yi looked at Lin Fuxue's eyes full of smiles towards him, and his tense lips softened.
"Okay, I've reserved a seat for you. Come in." Lin Fuxue dragged his arm and walked towards the banquet hall.
Fu Yi let her drag his arm and walked into the banquet hall.
He immediately saw Pei Zhiyuan sitting in the seat of honor among the guests. He was surrounded by guards and seemed to be giving instructions with his head tilted to the side.
"Xue'er, I met an acquaintance and went over to say hello. You go ahead and do your work." Fu Yi's hands in his sleeves suddenly clenched, and his face darkened.
"Who are you? I'll go with you." Lin Fuxue didn't know what was going on and hugged his arm affectionately.
Fu Yi hesitated for a moment, glanced at the guards around Pei Zhiyuan, and nodded calmly, "Okay."
