Translator: 安贝-Peggyan
Long Xiaoyuan and s.h.i.+ Qingzhou made the decision and then wanted to inform Lian Qingyang before working out a plan.
But, Long Xiaoyuan didn’t show up to see Lian Qingyang.
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou went to meet Lian Qinyang by himself, but the latter frowned upon hearing the plan out. “No way, it’s dangerous!” s.h.i.+ Qingzhou said, “It’s dangerous, but this is an imperial edict, General Lian.”
Lian Qingyang took a deep breath. “Have you talked him out of this? It’s childish.”
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou glanced at him. “General Lian, watch your tone. You’d better not say those disrespectful words.”
Lian Qingyang changed his expression a little. “Qingzhou, I…”
“Please call me Your Grace.” s.h.i.+ Qingzhou interrupted Lian Qingyang.
Lian Qingyang changed his expression again. “You’ve…changed.”
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou indifferently looked at Lian Qingyang. “General Lian, it should be me asking. I’m the empress, but your intimate tone will make us misunderstood. Do you know this? Even if we were colleagues before, the rule is the rule, and we can’t neglect it. Mind your behaviors, General Lian.”
Each word s.h.i.+ said was like a knife stuck into Lian’s chest. After a long time, Lian Qingyang slowly lowered his head. “Yes, Your Grace.”
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou replied to Lian Qingyang. “General Lian, please make your prepared for this.”
After that, s.h.i.+ Qingzhou directly walked away…
In the evening, 10,000 people set up a base camp here.
Long Xiaoyuan and s.h.i.+ Qingzhou stayed in Jiang An’s camp, but Jiang was asked out by Lian Qingyang, so only Long and s.h.i.+ were inside the camp.
“Qingzhou.” Long Xiaoyuan slightly called s.h.i.+’s name and kissed s.h.i.+’s lips. “Lian Qingyang has made preparations. Do we need to do something?”
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou winked. “What do you want to do?”
After some thoughts, Long Xiaoyuan said, “Neither of us can do disguise, so the man capable of this will definitely follow us…By the way, who is that man?”
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou said, “He’s on the way here. He’s not a soldier.”
“Oh, well…does he live in the Mansion of General s.h.i.+?” asked Long Xiaoyuan with curiosity.
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou said after a pause, “Yes.”
“Ah. When he arrives here, I’ll have a look at him. After all, disguise is fantastic,” said Long Xiaoyuan with interests.
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou said with a faint smile, “OK.”
They intimately talked to each other for a while. Long Xiaoyuan then asked, “Do we need to keep watch at night?”
“The people are enough…we’d better sleep. After all, we have a plan to work out.”
“You’re right.” Long Xiaoyuan laid down. “Here is not so comfortable as home, but it gives me a different feeling. Qingzhou, will Jiang An come back?”
“No, he won’t.” s.h.i.+ Qingzhou smiled. “General Lian won’t allow him to come back.” After all, they were here.
“It’s alright.” Having felt tired, Long Xiaoyuan closed his eyes and then signaled s.h.i.+ Qingzhou to come over. The latter went over and laid down beside him.
Long Xiaoyuan kissed s.h.i.+’s side face and closed his eyes again…
s.h.i.+ Qingzhou smiled and closed his eyes, too…
Jiang An didn’t come back this day, which proved that s.h.i.+ Qingzhou was right. Long Xiaoyuan slept well with s.h.i.+ Qingzhou in his arms.
