Chapter 72 A New Beginning

Besides, after Jiang Nian walked out of the main hall, he went straight to a secluded corridor, followed by Yan Mo.

Walking to a place where no one was around, Jiang Nian stopped, "I know why you left the guard last night."

Yan Mo's body, which was always as straight as a pine cypress, froze, and his face changed slightly.

"You misunderstood her last night. It was An Chen who resorted to tricks to do so. You left sadly, but almost trapped her forever."

Jiang Nian's words were like knives, piercing Yan Mo's heart.

Yan Mo felt a stagnation in his chest, took a few steps back, his eyes were full of pain, "I'm confused!"

Jiang Nian looked at him coldly, and said calmly: "You should know that she can't respond to your kindness, and it's really against human nature to ask you to accept the people around her. It's better to leave now, and she won't either." will blame you."

Yan Mo looked up at him, the pain in his eyes was even worse, "Yes, I knew that without you, I would not be able to do it with her, but I still had delusions last night, why can't I, but An Chen can? So it is I misunderstood……"

Seeing him like this, Jiang Nian couldn't help being moved.An Chen's love has a purpose, but Yan Mo is sincere.He suddenly said: "Well, are you willing to join the army?"

Yan Mo shook her head subconsciously, "No, I'm leaving, who will protect His Majesty?"

Jiang Qingnian smiled: "Can't I find someone to be her bodyguard? At the latest next spring, Ah Zhao and I will start reforming the military system. Would you like to help us?"

After a long silence, Yan Mo said, "What do you want me to do?"

Jiang Nian said: "After the autumn, I will find an opportunity to put you in the army. I want you to be promoted to the rank of fifth rank before next spring. Can you do it?"

Yan Mo knew that there was an extremely difficult road ahead of him, but he still chose to challenge without hesitation.

Jiang Nian continued: "Before you go to the barracks, there is one more thing for you to do."

Yan Mo asked: "What's the matter?"

"Go to the village near the imperial mausoleum and investigate An Chen's life experience."

By the way, after Ning Yuezhao sent An Chen away, he sat alone in the hall without saying a word.

It wasn't until Jiang Nian stepped into the hall and walked to her side that she came back to her senses.

"Jiang Nian." Ning Yuezhao called him first.

Jiang Nian sat down beside her and listened quietly.

"I won't see An Chen again in the future. I've asked someone to take care of him in the Imperial Hospital. From now on, he can only write the letters silently. After the silence is over, I will send him out of the imperial capital."

Since you have chosen to be honest, there should be no concealment in the future.

Jiang Nian felt a surge of emotion in his heart, he held Ning Yuezhao's hand, "Azhao..."

Ning Yuezhao put the other hand on the back of his hand, "From now on, let's have a good life."

He waited for two lives, and finally waited for such a moment of tranquility and peace. In an instant, he really hoped that time would freeze and stay here forever.

The next day, Ning Yuezhao went to court again.

There has been no court meeting for half a month, and many ministers are still a little dazed standing on the Chongtian Temple.

Ning Yuezhao, who was dressed in the imperial crown, sat on the golden dragon chair, raised her hands and said, "Ministers and workers, I feel deeply guilty because I was ill and stopped working for a long time. The affairs here all depend on your dedication and diligence." , I am very relieved."

"Sharing His Majesty's worries is the duty of a humble official, and I dare not take credit for it." All the ministers said in unison.

Ning Yuezhao said with a smile: "Half a month ago, the emperor went to Linzhao in person to supervise the repair of the embankment, and now the emperor has returned."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Nian, who was also wearing a green robe and a black crown, slowly stepped in from outside the Chongtian Hall.

All the officials knelt down and waited for him to step on Dan Bi to the stage and take his seat calmly.

Everyone kowtowed in unison, "Welcome Your Royal Highness to return to court."

Jiang Nian and Ning Yuezhao looked at each other with a smile, and he said loudly, "Everyone is safe."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

After the courtiers got up, Jiang Nianlang smiled and said, "I'm going to Linzhao alone, do you have any questions?"

Previously, Jiang Nian advocated building river embankments to resist the rare torrential rain in a century, and many people in the court opposed it. If it weren't for Ning Yuezhao's support and his father's years of prestige in the court, the matter would have been absolutely impossible do it.

Later, when the river embankment was first completed, some people claimed that the theory of the torrential rain was unfounded, and it was simply that Jiang Nian, the emperor, took the opportunity to amass money.

Now, it is raining heavily outside.

The high-ranking officials are alright, they can take a carriage to the palace gate, and at most they can walk for a while with an umbrella. Even so, the official robes and boots on their bodies are still almost half wet, not to mention those with low ranks, they have already been wet To be honest, he is now huddled at the tail of the team, very low-key.

Therefore, when Jiang Nian unceremoniously raised this topic, many officials present felt a little uncomfortable.

The officials of Jiang Qixi's party were a little proud. After all, they supported the construction of the river embankment.

Then someone came out and said: "Your Highness has a far-sighted vision. If you hadn't worked hard to repair the river embankment, I'm afraid that many fertile fields in the Linzhao area would be turned into vast oceans."

The members of Xu Zhi's party remained silent and let the members of Jiang Qixi's party play their role.

Jiang Nian raised his chin slightly, "I am honored to be able to do my best for the common people, and I dare not take credit for it."

In the end, Jiang Nian slapped those who questioned him in the face of an absolute winner in this court meeting.

Of course, a slap requires a candy.

Ning Yuezhao changed the subject and said, "Now that the women's jinshi division is about to enter autumn, but the weather is not good and there are continuous torrential rains, I decided to postpone the autumn for ten days."

The ministers all knew that it was the emperor who gave them a step down, and they all seconded their proposals.

In this way, the first court meeting after the empress returned to court passed without any danger.

After the court was over, Jiang Nian and Ning Yuezhao went back to Shenglong Hall together.

Fu Liao was already waiting in the hall, "I come to ask His Majesty for pulse."

Although it was said that Ning Yuezhao didn't get sick last night, her illness was like a time bomb, so she had to be careful.

Ning Yuezhao cooperatively asked Fu Liao to take the pulse.

"how?"

When Fu Liao stopped, Jiang Nian asked first.

Fu Liao looked solemn, "Today's pulse condition is peaceful, so there should be no serious problems. I will prescribe some prescriptions for expelling wind and cold. Your Majesty, remember to take them on time."

Jiang Nian was a little relieved. Although Ning Yuezhao didn't want to make a medicine jar, she still had to drink medicine for her own health, but she didn't want to be so inexplicably worried.

Ning Yuezhao said suddenly: "Fu Liao, didn't you say that you suspect that An Chen used golden needles to control my illness? You do it again according to the method that day, and see if I will have an attack tonight."

Fu Liao was a little embarrassed, and looked at Jiang Nian, "Your Majesty, that is my conjecture. If it succeeds, then you will suffer again."

Ning Yuezhao waved her hand and said nonchalantly: "I can bear the pain, I must find out why it happened!"

Jiang Nian saw that she insisted and couldn't hold her back, so he could only nod his head and acquiesced.

Then, the three of them came to Ning Yuezhao's bedroom.

Fu Liao took out the golden needle and collected himself, everything went according to the steps of that day.

Jiang Nian watched the golden needle sink into Ning Yuezhao's skin, wishing he could replace it with his own body.

"Okay." Fu Liao took away the gold needle, "I will be guarding outside the hall tonight, if there is anything unusual, call me immediately."

Ning Yuezhao put on her clothes and nodded, "Okay."

After Fu Liao withdrew.

Ning Yuezhao leaned lazily on the bed, and said to Jiang Nian: "Today, we don't need those imperial edicts to draft edicts, let's review the memorials in the room."

It was rare for Jiang Nian to see her so relaxed, and he didn't want to have more people between the two of them, so he smiled and said: "Okay, then I will be your majesty's residence again today."

Ning Yuezhao met his gaze, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

Time passed by like this bit by bit, and soon it was night.

Jiang Nian stopped writing again, and asked nervously, "Azhao, what's wrong with you?"

Ning Yuezhao half closed the folder in her hand, and said impatiently: "No, you don't have to ask every once in a while."

"Oh." Jiang Nian picked up the pen again, but his hands couldn't help shaking slightly, and the words he wrote were not as correct as before.

After reading the last notebook, Ning Yuezhao yawned, "I'm sleepy, ask the maid to come in and serve me to bed."

Jiang Nian made the last stroke, and couldn't help asking, "Are you okay?"

Ning Yuezhao narrowed her eyes and said, "It's fine if you don't keep asking."

Jiang Nian had no choice but to say, "I'll stay with you tonight."

Ning Yuezhao looked at him coldly, and said in a subtle tone: "You are my imperial husband, where do you want to go if you don't stay?"

Jiang Nian's heart twitched, a little excited, but he tried his best to bear it, and the last thing he said was only two words: "Azhao..."

Ning Yuezhao waved her hand, and had already called the maid to come in and change her clothes.

Jiang Nian was not used to having people wait on him personally. He changed and washed by himself, so his movements were slower than Ning Yuezhao's.

After Jiang Nian finished changing, Ning Yuezhao was already lying on the bed, with his back facing him, leaving half of the space open.

Jiang Nian naturally knew what this meant, but thinking of her dodging yesterday morning, he knew that she was probably completely willing in her heart.

Ning Yuezhao didn't hear the movement behind her for a long time, she couldn't help turning around, and said angrily, "What are you dawdling about?"

Jiang Nian touched his nose, sat on the edge of the bed, and put his hand on her shoulder.Her shoulders were small and round, and when she rubbed them carefully, it was hard to put it down.

Ning Yuezhao straightened her body, she was still a little uncomfortable with his touch.She silently said to herself, we are husband and wife, it is normal to do such a thing.

Jiang Nian lay down next to her body, and gently hugged her from behind.

While Ning Yuezhao was nervously waiting for his next move, he didn't make any other moves for a long time.

Jiang Nian tightly wrapped his arms around her, and whispered in her ear: "Relax, I just want to hug you and sleep."

Ning Yuezhao was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to respond to his thoughtfulness.Sure enough, she was still too blunt.

As if afraid of her overthinking, Jiang Nian said again: "Don't think too much, go to sleep."

"Jiang Nian, I..." Ning Yuezhao couldn't help but speak.

Jiang Nian kissed lightly on the ear, and said maliciously: "If you don't sleep, I will really do something. No matter how much you beat and scold and beg for mercy, I will not stop."
