Chapter 128 Yan Mo Returns
The news that the general suppressed the ministers with strong means soon spread to the harem. At that time, Ning Yuezhao was walking in the imperial garden accompanied by Bi Tao.

It snowed heavily last night, and the imperial garden was covered with silver, and the red plums in the plum garden were just blooming, and the red stars were dotted, adorning the plain white world.

Today is a rare sunny day after snow, and the winter sun is warm.

Ning Yuezhao was wearing a thick lynx cloak, and holding a heater in her hand, she didn't feel cold at all.

Fu Liao said that always lying down is not conducive to her body recovery, and getting out of bed and walking around is good for her body.

After being served by Bitao's various soups for the past two days, Ning Yuezhao's complexion has returned to a little rosy.

Bitao carefully supported Ning Yuezhao, walking on the clean forest path.

It's a pity that Jiang Nian can't show up in front of people now, and after half a month, he doesn't know if the beauty of the red plums in full bloom is still there.

Seeing a look of loneliness in Ning Yuezhao's expression, Bitao asked nervously: "Your Majesty, what's the matter? But what's wrong?"

Ning Yuezhao shook her head, "No, I just had some feelings for a while."

"Your Majesty, what are your plans for Ascending Dragon Hall?" Bi Tao asked tentatively.

Seeing Jiang Nian and Ning Yuezhao getting along these few days, anyone with eyes could see Jiang Nian's intentions, but he didn't know what Ning Yuezhao was thinking.After all, she was very reluctant to this marriage at first.Now, if Ning Yuezhao wants to get rid of this marriage, this is an opportunity.

But in terms of selfishness, Bitao didn't want Ning Yuezhao to miss such a person who treated her sincerely.

Ning Yuezhao stopped under a plum tree, she pointed to the most colorful branch, "I'll have someone break this off later, I want to take it back."

"Your Majesty?" Bitao looked at her puzzled.

"He can't come out, so I'll take this back and show him."

At this time, the palace servants had already cut off the plum branches that the empress wanted and handed them over to Ning Yuezhao.

Seeing her like this, Bitao felt that she didn't need to say anything, Ning Yuezhao had already made her choice.

At this time, I saw Qingchi trotting all the way over, panting and saying: "Your Majesty, Yan Mo is back!"

"What?" Ning Yuezhao's eyes lit up.

Previously, Yan Mo went to join the army under Jiang Nian's order, and he didn't even bring back a single word from his journey for several months.Ning Yuezhao couldn't reach the army, so she could only wait quietly. She didn't expect to hear about him so soon.

"Where are the others?"

Although Yan Mo is Ning Yuezhao's bodyguard, the two grew up together and their friendship is extraordinary.Hearing that he has returned to the imperial capital, Ning Yuezhao can't wait to see him right away.

"I don't know, I overheard... the conversation with Commander Zuo." Jiang Nian's name couldn't be said in public, so Qingchi could only skip it, but she believed that His Majesty could understand it.

Ning Yuezhao squeezed the plum branch tightly in her hand, "Since Zuo Ming is waiting for me, let's go back to the palace."

Inside the Ascending Dragon Hall.

Zuo Ming's normally flat face showed a gleam of joy and said, "You're right, the people at An Chen's side really can't sit still, and they've already started to move."

Counting it, An Chen was bewitched by Lan Yu and locked up in the side hall for eight days.Now the people in Rising Dragon Hall have been thoroughly cleaned up. At this time, the whole palace is like an iron bucket, and people outside can't find out the news inside. This is why Jiang Nian can sit here majesticly now.

"At the beginning when Sai Bianque's body was thrown in the mass grave, I thought he was dead and I didn't pay attention. In the past few days, I took my assistant to search for the place where Sai Bianque's body was originally thrown, but nothing matched him. I'm sure he's cheating, but I don't know if he's still in the imperial capital. The guards at Boji Hall have been withdrawn for three days, and he hasn't shown up yet."

"It must still be there." Jiang Nian said very firmly, "His lair is still there, and he is reluctant to leave. Keeping an eye on both Boji Hall and Anzhai will definitely be rewarding."

Zuo Ming nodded, now the nails in the palace have almost been pulled out, and people outside the palace can't find out what's going on inside, and it's not far from self-disruption.

At this moment, Ning Yuezhao walked in, followed by Qingchi and Bitao who were panting.

"See Your Majesty!" Zuo Ming got up and saluted.

Ning Yuezhao waved her hand, "Excuse me."

Jiang Nian also stood up, and seeing the glistening red plums in Ning Yuezhao's hands, he couldn't help being in a good mood.

Jiang Nian approached her, untied her cloak, noticed that her breath was not stable, and knew that she must have heard some news and came back in a hurry.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Jiang Nian took the plum branch and took her hand to let her sit beside him.

Ning Yuezhao glanced at Zuo Ming, "You have something to discuss, let's deal with your matters first."

She is no longer that reckless princess now, she is acting more and more steadily.

"this is for you."

Jiang Nian smiled, and took out a square-folded piece of paper from his sleeve.There were no envelopes, and there were even holes in the paper.

Ning Yuezhao took the paper suspiciously, opened it, and found familiar handwriting on it.

There was no letterhead or signature on the letter, but it was written by Yan Mo.

"This letter was shot at Jiang's feet with an arrow when the servants of Jiang's family opened the back door this morning."

Jiang Nian opened his mouth to explain her doubts.

When he was detained in Yusheng Pavilion earlier, he asked Jing Ming to find Qingchi and let him out of the palace, in order to communicate with Jiang's family conveniently.

If it weren't for Jing Ming's maintenance, his father Jiang Qixi would not have been able to keep calm and pretend to be sick for so long.

Jing Ming asked Zuo Ming to bring this letter in today.

Ning Yuezhao glanced at the contents of the letter paper in a hurry. Yan Mo said on it that he went to the place where Ning Yuezhao and An Chen met near the imperial mausoleum, and found that since Ning Yuezhao and An Chen left, a scene had happened in that village. The fire burned everything clean, and no one survived.

Afterwards, he went to the Northwest to join the army. With his military merits, he has been promoted two ranks in a row, and Yan Mo is now a seventh-rank military rank.

Now Xiao Jingtian has mobilized some soldiers and horses, heading towards the imperial capital.

"Remember, be careful!" Ning Yuezhao read out the last few words of the letter, and at the same time her expression turned ugly, "Xiao Jingtian is so courageous, what is he trying to do by mobilizing troops to the imperial capital without authorization?"

Jiang Nian said: "Presumably, he only wanted to increase military expenditures, so he made the arrangement."

Ning Yuezhao squinted at him, "Why do you always have such confidence in Xiao Jingtian?"

She had read the information given by Jiang Nian before, and knew Xiao Jingtian's performance in the army in the past few years. He was strict with the soldiers and even stricter with himself, and never gave special treatment.He values ​​soldiers, but is not good at taking power.

However, as an emperor, Ning Yuezhao did not allow such a big risk from a prudent point of view.

Jiang Nian said: "It's not that I have confidence in him, but that the Ning family has always given enough trust to the Xiao family. Besides, the vicinity of the imperial capital is still our territory after all. You still have [-] forbidden troops, and his troops are rushing from the northwest Come, if we really want to match up, our chances of winning are better."

Because the Xiao family was a hero in the founding of the country, the royal family allowed their family to inherit the position of first-class general and control the military power in the northwest.However, the royal family also has one hundred thousand forbidden troops in their hands, responsible for the military defense of the imperial capital and its vicinity.This is the life-saving talisman for the descendants of the Ning family, and it checks and balances with the Xiao family.

Ning Yuezhao finally approved of Jiang Nian's words, she said: "Zuo Ming, you have also strengthened the defense of the imperial city these few days, if Xiao Jingtian really has no objection, he should know how to restrain himself."

 I've had a headache for two days, and I really can't write more. That's all for today, sorry...
