Chunye was reluctant to leave Bai Runyi, but there was no other way.
"Well, I understand." Shen Qing ate half a plate of nuts, picked up the teacup and took a sip, "You go back, I will send others to protect the young lady."
Chunye was stunned for a moment. Why didn’t she try to keep him?
"To be honest, I'm not too sure about Bai Runyi."
"What are you worried about?" Jiang Zhuo chuckled. "Don't worry, there are many people with strong martial arts skills in Dongli."
"I..." Chunye's hand pinched the corner of his clothes unconsciously, and his expression was a little unnatural.
"Runyi can't possibly go to the Western Regions with you, at least not right now." Chen Qing put down his teacup, straightened his expression, and spoke. "Whether she'll be willing in the future or not, I don't know, but the Western Regions are such a small place, even the smallest news can spread throughout the city in a quarter of an hour."
As soon as Chunye enters the city, he will be surrounded by forces from all sides, so take Runyi with him.
It’s not that her words were rude, but Runyi’s simple mind wouldn’t survive more than three chapters.
"I know, but I don't know how to say goodbye to her."
Leaving without saying goodbye is totally out of his style.
"so?"
"So, you have to help me!" Chun Ye looked at Chen Qing and spoke.
Beautiful! She knew it.
"How can I help?"
"Just say you're sending me to guard the border."
Shen Qing and Jiang Zhuo looked at him together, their eyes speechless to the extreme.
He doesn't play the villain, so she does?!
"You two, for my happiness, I beg you!" Chun Ye clasped his hands together, his expression earnest. "Once my brother has pacified the situation in the Western Regions, I promise to give a 10% discount on all goods from the Western Regions!"
"Three points." Shen Qing stretched out three fingers.
"No, two points at most!"
"Five points"
“Three points!”
"Deal." Shen Qing nodded and calmly drank a sip of tea, "Go back and wait for the imperial edict."
Chunye was stunned for a moment. What did he just do?
After Chunye left, Chen Qing could no longer play chess.
"It's unbelievable that this guy is actually a prince."
"The Western Regions is a good place. If he can really succeed, the young lady will have a place to live for the rest of her life." Jiang Zhuo spoke carefully.
Shen Qing thought for a moment with the chess piece in his hand.
Three days later, Chen Qing met with Chun Ye before he left and reached some kind of agreement, and then Chun Ye left Dongli.
Shangshu Mansion.
After Chunye left, the whole yard was very deserted, and she was a little uncomfortable for a moment.
"Miss, the emperor is here."
Bai Runyi's eyes lit up, and he quickly stood up and rushed towards Shen Qing.
"Qingqing, Chunye is gone."
"I know." Shen Qing nodded.
On the surface, it was she who ordered him to leave.
"Qingqing, is it reliable for him to guard the border?"
Bai Runyi spoke hesitantly.
She was worried about him in her heart, but...
"He didn't go to guard the border, he went to the Western Regions." Shen Qing peeled an orange and ate it. "He is the younger brother of the prince of the Western Regions. This time he went back to participate in the internal struggle."
"Ah?" Bai Run was also shocked.
Shen Qing nodded and told Bai Runyi everything.
She would not let Chunye take the blame. Besides, since he liked Runyi, Runyi had the right to know.
"Then there's something he didn't tell me?" Bai Runyi curled his lips.
"Because he likes you, he doesn't want you to know for the time being."
Bai Runyi blinked, and when she heard Shen Qing's words, she couldn't help but feel her heart beating faster.
"Miss, if he really wins and comes back to ask to marry you, will you go to the Western Regions with him?"
"I..." Bai Runyi hesitated.
She should have refused directly. Dongli was her home and she wouldn't go anywhere else. However, after he had been gone for only one day, she felt a little uncomfortable.
This time, she seemed to be really moved, it was true!
"I understand. At worst, I can lead my men to conquer the Western Regions and let him marry into my family."
Shen Qing said it so calmly, but Bai Run was also frightened.
"Don't."
It’s better not to fight if you can!
"Qingqing, I'm actually a little confused now, whether I like him or not. I admired Murong Zhi at first, but later I found out he was a scumbag. Then I met Wen Xingzhi, and he wasn't a good guy either. I won't deny that I like gentle and good-looking men, but Chunye is completely different from them."
"Chun Ye, he is really a bitch."
Of course, she wasn't scolding him, she was just making an objective statement.
"When I first saw him, I didn't seem to like him very much, and I never thought that I would actually fall in love with him over time."
Love is like this, what makes you fall in love at first sight is often your disaster.
"Don't worry about it. What if he dies in the internal strife?" Shen Qing comforted him. "I mean, what if he can't come back?"
Thank you, I feel comforted.
Bai Runyi smiled at Shen Qing, "Qingqing, I will wait for him, wait for him to come back and tell me in person. I think, by then, I will have the answer."
She won't always be unlucky. No matter how bad it happens, her love life will never be really bumpy.
…
When Chen Qing had nothing to do, she would sneak out of the palace to go shopping with Bai Runyi, leaving Jiang Zhuo in the Qianqing Palace to review memorials.
Jiang Zhuo proposed more than once that he wanted to go, but was rejected by Shen Qing.
She said that this was a matter between women and asked him to go away.
It was not until three months later that the imperial physician who took Shen Qing's pulse diagnosed her with pregnancy.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, and Lord Jiang! Your Majesty is pregnant!"
Shen Qing's hand paused as she was yawning. She was pregnant?!
Unbelievable.
"Really?" Jiang Zhuo's eyes lit up.
"Master Jiang, it is absolutely true. The pulse is strong and powerful, and the fetus is stable."
"Qingqing, I'm going to be a father!" Jiang Zhuo excitedly pulled Shen Qing's hand.
"I'm going to be a father..." Shen Qing murmured in a daze.
"What do you mean you're the father? You're his mother!"
