Chapter 130 The Road Back to Beijing
Although this is just an excuse to postpone the marriage,
However, she was Zhan Shixuan's real biological mother! How could she easily say that her son was ill?
Not to mention, the reason why Zhan Shixuan became weak and sickly was all because of this ungrateful and conscienceless emperor! Whenever she thought of this, a strong feeling of resentment would involuntarily surge in the Queen Mother's heart.
However, the Queen Mother suppressed her inner resentment and responded in a cold tone: "Your Majesty, please do not match people up so casually. Marriage is a very serious matter. It affects Wanyin's future happiness. It must be treated with caution."
The emperor keenly caught the hidden meaning in the empress dowager's words. His expression changed slightly, but he regained his composure in an instant.
He raised his lips slightly, revealing a smile, and said softly, "What my mother said is very true. It is true that I have not considered it carefully enough. In this case, I will immediately order Zhan Shixuan to return to the capital. After Wanyin has met him, we can discuss whether the marriage between the two is feasible."
As soon as he finished speaking, the emperor turned around and walked away.
Looking at the emperor's figure gradually walking away, the empress dowager secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But she also knew that the emperor would not easily give up the idea of letting Zhan Shixuan marry, and she had to find a way to protect her son.
The imperial edict spread across the northern border like a thunderbolt. Emperor Tiansheng issued an edict to confer Zhan Shixuan the title of General of Chariots and Cavalry of the Fourth Rank, and ordered him to return to the capital to recuperate. At the same time, Lu Yi also heard that the emperor intended to marry Wanyin to Zhan Shixuan.
She felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife, and she whispered to Zhan Shixuan with a sad face: "It is difficult to disobey the emperor's order..." Her voice revealed endless helplessness and sadness. However, she did not continue to say the rest of the words.
How could Zhan Shixuan not understand the deep meaning? He held Lu Yi's hand tightly and responded firmly: "Lu Yi, you can rest assured that I will never marry anyone else. You are the only partner in my mind. When I return to Beijing this time, I will explain everything to everyone. How can the imperial order be inviolable? If anyone dares to obstruct our marriage, I will not hesitate to overthrow this country to make you my queen!"
Lu Yi was shocked when she heard this, and looked around hurriedly, thankful that they were the only ones present at the moment. She lowered her voice nervously and warned, "Don't talk nonsense!"
The soldier prayed silently in his heart, hoping that God would protect him and not let others hear him, otherwise it might bring him fatal disaster.
Zhan Shixuan and Lu Yi knew very well that the road back to the capital would be extremely difficult and dangerous, but they had made up their minds to move forward without hesitation.
On the way back to Beijing, they accidentally discovered many mysterious clues, and felt as if a pair of eyes were watching their every word and action in the dark. These vague clues, like clues, led them to slowly uncover a shocking conspiracy.
Unexpectedly, someone actually tried to use the marriage of Zhan Shixuan and Wanyin to achieve some unknown and shameful purposes.
Zhan Shixuan resolutely decided to investigate the matter, not only to defend his own love, but also to find out the mastermind behind all this. At this time, the open and secret struggles in the palace became more and more intense.
Various forces from all sides began to surface one after another, and everyone showed their magical powers in order to get more benefits, launching a thrilling and exciting life-and-death struggle.
Can Zhan Shixuan and Lu Yi still firmly protect their true love in this storm? How can they break through the siege and break the current dilemma? All of this is unknown, which makes people sweat.
On the long journey back to Beijing, Zhan Shixuan and Lu Yi remained highly alert, not missing any clues, and carefully collecting various clues, because they knew that every tiny detail could be the key to solving this mystery.
