Jiang Qi knew that Nalanjiao was sarcastic, but she didn't care. Nalanjiao was just stupid and it would be easy to kill her.

But she wants to use her hands to get rid of other people, so now she still needs to be favored and alive.

"Sister Jiaojiao, you don't have to be so hostile to me. I just want to live well in this palace and I won't stand in your way."

"Sister Qi, what do you mean by this?" Nalanjiao's eyes were wary. Apart from being proud and domineering, she was not completely brainless.

"Sister Jiaojiao, in fact, in my heart, you are the best candidate for queen."

"Really?" Nalanjiao didn't expect Jiang Qi to recognize her so much, and she was immediately excited.

"Of course it's true. Sister Jiaojiao is so beautiful and she is the daughter of the Nalan family. This position must be yours."

Nalanjiao was so flattered by the praise that she could hardly control the smile on her face.

"Thank you, Sister Qi, for the compliment. Actually, I'm not that good." Nalanjiao also knew how to be modest.

"You have to believe in yourself and don't worry, my sister will help you."

"Then thank you, Sister Qi."

"We sisters don't need to be so polite with each other. Okay, it's getting late and I should go back."

From beginning to end, Jiang Qi never asked to sit in the room, which made Nalanjiao even more relieved.

"Okay, I'll see Sister Qi off."

Nalanjiao sent Jiang Qi away, and Lancao came up.

"Mother, what did the noble concubine tell you?"

Lancao was her confidant and the assistant sent to her by Nalanjiao's mother. She trusted Lancao very much and recounted the conversation just now.

"Your Majesty, you can't believe what the noble concubine says. As a woman in the harem, who doesn't yearn for the throne of the queen?

And the imperial concubine is His Majesty's favorite concubine. How could she not care about that position? "

Nalanjiao frowned dissatisfied, "What you said is wrong. She has a low background and can only be a noble concubine at the highest level. The position of queen is beyond her imagination."

"Your Majesty, you must be on guard against others. We cannot believe everything that the woman in this palace says."

"Okay, I know, has the room been cleaned?"

"Go back to your Majesty, everything has been rearranged."

"Well, I'm tired. You can take some people to take care of the flowers and plants in the yard."

"Yes, ma'am."

Li Youwei had already received Huangfu Chenyang's order to leave for Dongzhou. After handing over to Zhou Tengfei and others, she set off with a team of 3,000 people and gifts.

A month later, Li You arrived at Dongguan City alone.

After more than two years, Li Youwei returned to Dongguan City again, and guard Wang Yi personally went out of the city to greet him.

"General Li, welcome to Dongguan City, I will show you around."

Wang Yi rubbed his hands excitedly, eager to show his role model what he had done over the years.

"Okay, General Wang, please lead the way."

"General Li, just call me Wang Yi."

Wang Yi was a little embarrassed. He really couldn't bear the word "general" in front of the second-grade chariot and cavalry general.

"General Wang is humble, please."

Today's Dongguan City has been greatly changed. The people live a prosperous life. Not only do they have sufficient food, but there is also no shortage of various kinds of meat.

Wang Yi first took Li Youwei to see the crops, and then to see the flocks of cattle, sheep and rabbits being raised.

After seeing this, they went to the market again.

The market was very lively, and the cries of the people could be heard. Li Youwei glanced over and found that there were everything for sale.

An old woman selling wontons wiped her eyes vigorously and shouted uncertainly.

"General Li, are you back?"

During the two years that Li Youwei was in Dongguan City, the people spontaneously called her general. In their minds, she was the only one worthy of the word general. "Aunt Wang, I am Youwei."

Li Youwei stepped forward and held Aunt Wang's hand.

Aunt Wang was so excited that she almost cried, "You are finally back. Come on, I will cook you a bowl of wontons."

Wang Yi was about to refuse, because he had already ordered someone to prepare a sumptuous lunch.

I just heard Li Youwei say hello.

Aunt Wang happily filled a large bowl for Li Youwei. In Li Youwei's eyes, this was more than just a bowl of wontons, but also the love of the people for her.

Li Youwei ate all the soup and wontons, which made Aunt Wang feel moved again.

"General Li, can you stay a little longer this time?"

"Aunt Wang, General Li is on official business this time and will have to leave in a few days."

Wang Yi was afraid that Li Youwei would not be able to answer, so he answered for her.

Aunt Wang's eyes were full of reluctance, "General Li, during these days when you are here, why don't you come to this old woman's place to eat wontons when you have time?"

"Don't worry, Aunt Wang, the wontons you make are so delicious, I will come here often."

"Hey, okay."

After talking for a while, Li Youwei and others left. Before leaving, Bitao secretly placed a piece of broken silver in Aunt Wang's stall.

By the time Aunt Wang found out, Li Youwei and others had already gone far.

Li Youwei stayed in Dongguan City for five days. Seeing that everything was fine, he led his people to continue towards Dongzhou Kingdom.

Chu Wangchen had already received the news. On the second day after leaving Dongguan City, there were men and horses in front to respond.

Seeing Li Youwei, Chu Ning hurriedly rode forward, "General Li, my Highness asked his subordinates to come and pick you up."

Li Youwei recognized that the leader was Chu Wangchen's personal bodyguard Chu Ning.

"We have a guard from Chu."

"General Li, you're welcome. Our Highness was worried that you would get lost, so he asked me to wait here."

When Chu Ning said this, she had been observing Li Youwei's expression, not wanting to miss any of her expressions.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for me."

"This is what my Highness should do, please."

Chu Ning secretly complained that his Highness was very happy when Li Youwei came this time.

After all, they have been thinking about her for so long, and they will see each other soon. If it weren't for the many things in the palace, he would have to pick it up himself.

Li Youwei didn't know what Chu Ning was thinking, so he led people to follow him towards the territory of Dongzhou Kingdom.

Dongzhou Kingdom has many seas. To reach the capital of Dongzhou Kingdom, you need to take a boat.

"General Li, my subordinates have pills to prevent seasickness. Please take one."

The person in front of him was the person who was dear to his prince's heart. Chu Ning did not dare to neglect him and thought of everything ahead.

"Thank you."

Li Youwei did not refuse Chu Ning's kindness. Although she was not seasick, some of the soldiers who came with her were taking a boat for the first time and might need it.

Li Youwei distributed the pills to everyone and boarded the large ship prepared by Chu Ning that could carry thousands of people.

The big ship traveled on the sea for more than ten days before arriving at Zhoucheng, the capital of Dongzhou Kingdom.

When we got off the boat, we could see vendors hawking goods everywhere.

It’s already so lively even before entering the city, which shows that Zhoucheng will be even more prosperous.

Chu Ning introduced to Li Youwei as he walked, "The area near Zhoucheng was not so prosperous originally. It was the drastic reforms made by His Highness that led to the current prosperity."

In order for Li Youwei to have a good impression of Chu Wangchen, Chu Ning would praise him whenever he got the chance.
