After reading the whole family's minds, the eldest daughter awakened

Compared to Chu Wangchen's restraint, Gongsun Qiao was much more relaxed.

"General Li, I heard that Miss Nalan not only got married, but also gave birth to a lovely son. I'm really happy for her."

Li Youwei's expression turned gentle when he mentioned Nalan Ling.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome, General Li. In fact, I quite envy her." Gongsun Qiao had a hint of loneliness on her face. Can she still meet the person she can trust for the rest of her life?

She also wanted to have only one person's heart and never be separated until they grow old together, but in the end it was a luxury hope.

"Princess Anping doesn't need to envy others, you can do it too."

"With your good words, I hope we can both find a good man."

Gongsun Qiao raised his glass to Li Youwei, then raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

This reception banquet did not last long. Chu Wangchen was afraid that Li Youwei would be tired, so he ended it early and sent her back.

"General Li, ahem, don't you invite me in to sit down?"

Chu Wangchen was tall and tall, with fair skin. His beautiful eyes seemed to have stars in them, especially the small mole on his lips, which was particularly attractive.

Because of that cough, he looked a bit like a sickly scholar, but Li Youwei knew not to be fooled by Chu Wangchen's appearance.

To be able to sit in the position of the prince with a weak body, his ability should not be underestimated.

"Prince Wangchen, please."

Chu Wangchen actually didn't have high hopes, he just wanted to give it a try. Unexpectedly, Li Youwei actually agreed.

The prince, who has always been strategizing, is smiling a little silly now. Chu Ning who is following him can't stand it anymore. His wise and mighty highness is also smiling too cheaply now.

If anyone else saw this, their jaws would probably drop.

In the living room, Chu Wangchen was holding a cup of tea and sipping it. He was afraid that if he drank it too quickly, Li Youwei would see him off.

"Youwei, cough, no one else is here now, can I call you like this?"

Chu Wangchen was so good-looking that when he looked at someone pitifully, the other person really couldn't bear to refuse his request.

"Prince Wangchen, I am the general of Nanchen Kingdom, and you are the prince of Dongzhou Kingdom. We should not get too close."

"Youwei, I think."

Chu Wangchen's tone became even more pitiful, giving people a feeling of heinous sin.

Li Youwei sighed helplessly, "Okay, it's up to you."

Chu Wangchen coughed several times excitedly.

"Youwei, cough, I'm so happy."

Looking at Chu Wangchen whose face turned red from coughing, Li Youwei couldn't help but worry, "Prince Wangchen, your cough..."

Chu Wangchen waved his hand, "Don't worry, Xiao Wei. This is just a minor problem. In fact, my health is quite good."

The last sentence made Li Youwei look away uncomfortably. These were all nonsense.

Seeing Li Youwei's reaction, Chu Wangchen's eyes flashed with a smile.

"You Wei, don't call me Prince Wangchen. You can call me Brother Wangchen or Brother Chen."

Li Youwei frowned slightly, looking at Chu Wangchen with eyes that seemed to say, you are thinking too much.

"Ahem, if you don't like those two titles, you can just call me Wangchen."

"When no one else is around, I'll call you Brother Wangchen, right?"

Chu Wangchen's body stiffened. Who the hell is Brother Wangchen? He wants to be her man, not her brother.

And that's what he called Wang Boyan. Could it be that his status in her mind was the same as Wang Boyan's?

The more Chu Wangchen thought about it, the more disappointed he became, like a big dog abandoned by its owner. "Brother Wangchen, it's getting late, you should go back." Li Youwei couldn't stand his look anymore, so she had to say goodbye.

"Okay, you go to bed early, I will take you to visit Zhoucheng tomorrow."

"it is good."

Chu Wangchen took Chu Ning back to the Prince's Mansion. Li Youwei did not rest immediately, but practiced the sword for an hour before washing up and returning to the room.

No matter when the time comes, the habit of practicing martial arts cannot be lost.

The next day, Chu Wangchen and Gongsun Qiao came together.

"General Li, the queen invites you to come to the palace to have a talk." Gongsun Qiao said quite helplessly. She had already planned where to take Li Youwei to play today, but someone from the queen's side came.

Li Youwei also wanted to meet the Queen of Dongzhou Kingdom, so she followed Chu Wangchen and Gongsun Qiao into the palace.

The palace of Dongzhou Kingdom is very exquisitely built. Because it is close to the sea, many places are decorated with shells.

Empress Murong asked Li Youwei to meet in the pavilion of the Imperial Garden. Behind her stood the maids and eunuchs, each holding a tray with silk, satin, jewelry and other items on it.

"It's better to hear once than to see once. General Li is really a good man."

"See Queen Murong, you are exaggerating."

"Come, come and sit next to me."

When Li Youwei sat down, Queen Murong ordered the people behind her to bring the tray up.

"General Li, this is my wish, you must accept it."

"Queen, this is too valuable, I can't accept it."

"If General Li dislikes it, I will order someone to replace him until you are satisfied."

"Mother, General Li is a general. She prefers swords and the like. I happen to have collected a lot of them. How about giving them to her on behalf of my mother when I return home today?"

Chu Wangchen spoke up to help Li Youwei. He was short-tongued and short-handed. Li Youwei hadn't seen the Emperor of Dongzhou Kingdom yet, but the Queen sent something first. All smart people saw it. Queen Murong saved it. To win over.

And Li Youwei represented Nanchen Kingdom this time, so she naturally didn't want to get too close to the queen of Dongzhou Kingdom.

Queen Murong glanced at Chu Wangchen meaningfully, and then stopped insisting.

"Okay, then let Wangchen deliver it for me. General Li, His Majesty has been in poor health recently. I am afraid that I will neglect you, so I asked me to entertain you first. Come on, I will take you to see our Dongzhou Kingdom. The mermaid show.”

Queen Murong stood up, followed closely by Li Youwei and others.

Soon the group of people came to a lake. This lake was built very large. At first glance, it felt like looking at the sea. I have to say that the royal family of Dongzhou Kingdom was really generous.

Gongsun Qiao leaned next to Li Youwei and explained to her, "This lake did not exist before. My uncle built it specially for the Queen."

Li Youwei nodded. From this point of view, the relationship between the emperor and empress of Dongzhou Kingdom should be very good.

However, the emperor's kindness was more manifested in material form. Even if he loved Empress Murong, he would take in many concubines and have many children with them.

Even if she is as noble as Empress Murong, she still has to share her husband with other women.

There is a luxurious and exquisite pavilion in the center of the lake. Empress Murong was surrounded by people walking onto the wooden bridge. The handrails of the wooden bridge were carved with dragons and phoenixes, which were also exquisite. It can be seen that a lot of manpower and material resources were spent on the construction of this lake.

Li Youwei looked into the lake and saw all kinds of koi carp swimming under the water, which was very spectacular and beautiful.

When Queen Murong saw Li Youwei looking at the koi, she smiled and explained to her.

"His Majesty has collected these from all over the country. He knows that I like them. As long as he knows where there are good-looking fish, he will help me get them."

"The relationship between the emperor and the empress is so good. Empress Murong is so lucky."

Li Youwei followed her words and praised her.

A trace of blush appeared on Queen Murong's well-maintained face, "Yes, Your Majesty is really kind to me."
