Chapter 504: The Process
After lunch, Su Chenyu summoned Xuan Ling and Zhu Yi to meet him.
"Your Majesty, are we going to the capital?" Xuan Ling asked directly.
Su Chenyu looked at Xuan Ling, pretending not to see the expectation in his eyes: "Xuan Ling, you and Zhu Yi have done a lot this time, I plan to reward you, is there anything you want?"
Zhu Yi answered first: "Your Majesty, I just want to stay by your side and protect you and your husband forever. I have no other wishes."
Hearing Zhu Yi say this, Xuan Ling also said: "I have no other request."
Su Chenyu asked back, "You really don't want anything? For example, a marriage?"
Xuan Ling was stunned for a moment: "Your Majesty, please stop teasing me."
"Really?" Su Chenyu felt that she had to force him, otherwise even if he went to the capital, he would probably back down again. "In that case, I will arrange it for you. The army is now stationed in the southern border, and they are in need of a general. You have the ability to lead the army, so staying in the southern border will not be a waste of your talent. Why don't you stay in the southern border?"
Garrisoning in the southern border is of course the best choice for Xuan Ling.
He can only be regarded as a secret guard beside Su Chenyu now. How can he compare with a general in terms of prospects?
But Xuan Ling subconsciously refused: "Your Majesty, I am not suitable."
"Are you unfit to be a general, or are you unfit to stay in the South Territory?"
After being asked this question, Xuan Ling knew what Su Chenyu meant. He knew that he could no longer avoid the question. "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I know I was wrong. I have been in love with Siyu for a long time. I hope that after Your Majesty returns to the capital, you can grant me and Siyu a marriage."
After saying this, Xuan Ling felt much more relaxed. But at the same time, he was touched. He didn't expect that even when Su Chenyu lost her emotions, she could still find out the feelings between him and Ciyu, and even considered them.
"Xuan Ling, I know that you don't dare to face Ciyu because of some past events. Even when you left the capital, you promised her that you would ask me for a favor when you returned, but you still backed off. I don't want to see any more twists and turns between you and Ciyu, so I want to force you to see your heart clearly."
Listening to Su Chenyu's words, Xuan Ling's eyes felt a little sore. Su Chenyu knew him too well.
The main reason why he chose to be a secret guard was because he didn't want to face a lot of people. If he hid in the dark, not many people would notice him.
Xuan Ling could never let it go. He used to be the commander of the Jinwu Guard of King Beirong, and he always felt guilty.
Even though Su Chenyu told him again and again that it didn't matter, Xuan Ling still felt that it did matter.
Xuan Ling felt that he did not deserve happiness and did not have the courage to face Civic, so most of the time, he just looked at Civic silently.
Before leaving, he looked at the Civic chasing after him and softened his heart for once, but after leaving, would he still have that courage?
Xuan Ling himself knew that it would not happen.
But Su Chenyu's coercion today made him come out of the past. He didn't want to stay in the South Territory, or more precisely, he didn't want to leave the Civic Territory.
"Ciyu is thoughtful, so you don't need to let her know about your concerns." Su Chenyu warned.
Ciyu is the simplest and purest existence among them, and Xuan Ling himself wants to protect such a Ciyu: "Chen Xibai."
"I won't say more about some things, because I know you will definitely be nice to her."
Xuan Ling knelt in front of Su Chenyu and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your consideration."
"Get up." Su Chenyu smiled, "Go pack your things and prepare to go to Beijing."
"yes."
As soon as Xuan Ling stood up, Zhu Yi was already thinking about how to laugh at him when they got out. Wouldn't it be asking for trouble to pretend in front of His Majesty?
Bai Yanqing saw through Zhu Yi's thoughts and asked slowly, "Zhu Yi, it's been a year. Xuan Ling is much younger than you and is about to be granted marriage. Why haven't you made any progress?"
Hearing this, Zhu Yi's slightly raised mouth corners immediately drooped.
