Chapter 468: Going to the Southwest
Su Chenyu did not keep Bai Li Yan Qing sealed in her heart, nor did she forbid anyone from mentioning it.
Because Bai Yanqing has never been a taboo to her, but the love of her life.
People around him always remember Bai Yanqing, as if he had never left.
Yanyu came over at this time: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Jian requests to see you."
Ciyu took Su Nianqing away from Su Chenyu's arms with great foresight. Su Chenyu pinched Su Nianqing's cheek and said, "The Queen Mother will accompany you and your brother for dinner tonight."
"Okay." Su Nianqing agreed happily.
"Ciyu, please take care of Qi'an and Nianqing."
Ciyu has grown up now and has become a graceful lady. After listening to Su Chenyu's words, she nodded: "Yes, and Xuanling will help me."
After all, he did have a solid foundation. After Xuan Ling recovered from his injury, he resumed practicing martial arts and his skills improved quickly.
Nowadays, the security of the palace is openly the responsibility of Tan Yanxi and Zhu Yi, while the secret guards are trained by Xuan Ling in order to defend against wave after wave of assassins.
When Su Chenyu entered the imperial study, Jian Suining hurriedly greeted her.
"Is there something urgent?" Su Chenyu sat down on the chair and looked at Jian Suining who was standing in front of her.
Jian Suining placed a memorial on the table: "The southwest is a coastal area. The pirates there have become more and more rampant in recent years. The people are suffering. The local officials have repeatedly failed in their efforts to eliminate the pirates. I have no choice but to ask Your Majesty to take charge."
Su Chenyu opened the memorial and read it. The people in the southwest depended on the sea for their livelihood, but every time they went out to sea, they often encountered pirates. Not only could they not catch any seafood, but they could not even save their lives. Over time, the people went out to sea less frequently, and their lives became difficult. The pirates became increasingly rampant, and even went ashore to rob the fishermen's homes.
The local officials' repeated attempts to suppress pirates all failed for two reasons: first, the pirates moved quickly and it was impossible to locate their lair; second, the pirates were fierce and well-equipped.
At present, local officials are really unable to eliminate the pirates, so they come to the court for assistance.
"I remember that the southwest side is adjacent to South Vietnam, separated only by that stretch of sea. Have pirates invaded South Vietnam?"
Jian Suining had obviously investigated the matter thoroughly before coming to see Su Chenyu: "Your Majesty, I have found that the people along the coast of Nanyue have also been harmed by pirates, but for some reason, Nanyue has never made any response."
Su Chenyu pondered for a moment and said, "Who should be sent to deal with the pirates? I will give you an answer tomorrow."
"Yes." Just as Jian Suining was about to leave, Su Chenyu asked, "When I saw my grandfather a few days ago, he mentioned the old Marquis Jian. The old Marquis seems to be unwell. If necessary, you can go to the Imperial Hospital and ask Doctor Zhao to see the old Marquis."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern." Jian Suining said nothing more and left the imperial study.
Jian Suining is a smart man, he knows why Su Chenyu suddenly mentioned Jian Yuan.
Jian Yuan's health suffered a lot during the time he was in Western Xia, and it was not easy for him to survive until now. Now Jian Yuan's only regret is that he did not see Jian Suining's offspring.
Su Chenyu was reminding Jian Suining that he couldn't spend his whole life guarding someone who would never respond to him.
Jian Suining felt bitter. Su Chenyu was just too smart. She saw through his thoughts and rejected him completely. She didn't say it explicitly, which gave him dignity.
But in this life, when one realizes the best, how can one be willing to settle for less?
Jian Suining looked back at the imperial study. He knew that Su Chenyu would not force him. In that case, he would dedicate his whole life to Dayu, as a way of repaying Su Chenyu's great kindness to the Jian family.
In the evening, Su Chenyu went to find Bai Qi'an and Su Nianqing for dinner. As soon as she reached the door, she heard cheerful laughter from inside.
When Su Chenyu heard the voice, she knew who was coming.
When he entered the inner hall, he saw Nan Sheng playing with the two of them.
"Nan Sheng, it seems like you came much earlier this year than in previous years."
When Su Chenyu was about to give birth, the Wang Gu rioted and she was in danger of death. Even Zhao Zihang was helpless. Fortunately, Nan Sheng came and dispersed the power of the Wang Gu in Su Chenyu's body, so that the two children were born safely.
