After being forced to marry as a substitute, I became famous in the limbo

Chapter 109 A Common Wish

Jiang Qingyuan pondered for a moment, then solemnly and slowly saluted, "In this case, I will definitely live up to the emperor's entrustment."

Mu Jingzhao curled his lips slightly, and a gratified smile appeared on his face.

He suddenly thought that if Shen Tong learned that his move had tied him and Jiang Qingyuan together by mistake, would he feel that he had shot himself in the foot.

"I know very well that the case in Qingshui County is very important and difficult, so I sent Commander Lin to assist me to personally protect the safety of my father-in-law."

"Commander Lin?"

Jiang Qingyuan showed a bit of surprise. You must know that Lin Zheng, as the orphan of the general, is far above all the imperial guards. Although he is called the commander of the imperial guards, no one has the authority to send him except Mu Jingzhao.

The fact that Mu Jingzhao sent Lin Zheng this time is enough to show that Mu Jingzhao attaches great importance to this matter.

"Correct."

Seeming to have understood Mu Jingzhao's determination in an instant, Jiang Qingyuan said seriously, "I will live up to the emperor's trust."

"Remember that everything is based on appeasement, and truly consider the interests of the people."

Jiang Qingyuan was stunned for a moment, he didn't seem to expect that such a sentence would come out of Mu Jingzhao's mouth, he looked at Mu Jingzhao with a little relief on his face, "Yes."

Mu Jingzhao nodded and stopped talking.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Qingyuan finally spoke slowly, "I wonder if Concubine Ning is in good health recently?"

Hearing Jiang Ning's name, the faint stern and serious look on Mu Jingzhao's face disappeared in an instant, and his lips raised, outlining a faint smile.

"She's pretty good. This girl is really lucky. After all this trouble, she still looks like a normal person. She can eat and sleep."

Jiang Qingyuan seemed to be infected by Mu Jingzhao's smile at the moment, and the corner of his mouth also evoked a gratifying smile.

"In this case, I would like to ask the emperor to send his respects to Concubine Ning on behalf of the veterans."

Mu Jingzhao nodded slightly and stopped talking.

"The minister will take his leave first." Jiang Qingyuan saluted, and then stepped back quickly.

Mu Jingzhao took out a piece of letter paper, wrote a few words on it, folded it carefully and sealed it in an envelope.

"Li Zinian—" Mu Jingzhao called out, and Li Zinian quickly walked into the hall.

Mu Jingzhao handed the envelope to Li Zinian, and gave him two instructions, "Give this to Ah Zheng."

Li Zinian just took two steps, then returned as if he had thought of something, stood in front of Mu Jingzhao with his head bowed, hesitant to speak.

"Just say anything."

"Your Majesty, do you really want Commander Lin to go out on errands? If something happens to Concubine Ning in the future..."

"You really are getting more and more courageous. You actually heard my head from the corner of the wall." Mu Jingzhao's voice was sonorous, but there was not much anger on his face.

Li Zinian trembled all over, and fell to his knees with a plop.

Mu Jingzhao raised his voice a bit, "Even if I am alone, it is enough to protect Concubine Ning's safety."

Mu Jingzhao's voice was faint, as if he had thought of something else, "Perhaps, this is exactly what A Zheng wants."

"Emperor, what did you just say?"

Mu Jingzhao's thoughts were interrupted, his expression was displeased, and he scolded twice in a low voice, "You bastard, hurry up!"

Li Zinian didn't dare to say any more, just nodded his head, and trotted away.

Until Li Zinian left, Mu Jingzhao was the only one left in the imperial study room. He leaned back and lay on the chair.

From this angle, he could just see the little patch of brand new roof.

The color of that roof is obviously lighter than that of other roofs around. Not long ago, Jiang Ning fell from the sky from that place, and even the people fell in front of him with the tiles.

That is, from that time on, he used this excuse to move the place where he handled government affairs to the cold palace, and the original imperial study room was almost never set foot again.

But now, when he entered here again, he was surprised to realize that this place had been repaired, much faster than he imagined.

In this way... then no matter what, Jiang Ning cannot let the news that the renovation of the Imperial Study Room has been completed.Thinking so, he slowly walked out of the door of the imperial study.

Jiang Ning has been a little absent-minded all day long. No matter what she thinks or does, she unconsciously recalls the close dependence and mutual affection between herself and Mu Jingzhao last night in her mind.

And whenever she thinks of these, she will blush and have nowhere to escape.

You know, she has always had a strong temper since she was a child. The more people around her say that women should be virtuous and virtuous, the more eager she is to prove to others that she is not lost to any man.

Therefore, in this invisible contest, all the men around her were regarded as competitors by her. No matter what happened, she insisted on competing with those men.

And Jiang Ning is really competitive, and has won many battles and struggles. After the boys' admiration sprouted, their admiration was strangled in the cradle.

Then, when her family was broken and homeless, and even having enough food and clothing became difficult, she no longer had the leisure to pay attention to other things.

Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that Jiang Ning really knows nothing about men and women.

It was difficult for her to understand what Mu Jingzhao's sincere words to her meant.

It is also difficult to understand why I am so restless.

"Your Majesty, if you keep pouring water like this, the sweet potatoes that the Emperor has worked so hard to raise will die."

It wasn't until the sound of breaking willows that Jiang Ning realized that he was carrying a bucket to water the sweet potatoes in the yard.

Most of the water in the bucket was gone, and the small piece of land under the sweet potato vine was already soaked.

She smiled dryly, and threw the ladle into the bucket casually.

The moment Jiang Ning got up, a black figure flashed across the huge hole in the palace wall, Jiang Ning's heart trembled, and he quickly ran out of the cold palace.

Near the hole, Lin Zheng was dressed in black, leaning his back lazily against the red wall, his expression still indifferent.

"You're here." Jiang Ning smiled brightly. At this moment, she looked at me, Lin Zheng, with an inexplicable kindness in her heart. After all, in this imperial city, besides Mu Jingzhao, only the two of them knew her true identity. up.

She thought, at this moment, except for Lin Zheng, probably no one else could understand her mood at this moment.

"En." Lin Zheng looked up at her, his eyes softened a little, the minister came today to bid farewell to the empress. "

"Farewell?" Jiang Ning's heart skipped a beat. She finally found someone who could understand her feelings, but she lost it instantly.

"The minister is ordered by the emperor to go to Qingshui County to perform a mission."

"Qingshui County?"
