Three days later, Shangguan Zheng, who was newly married, took his wife Jinghe into the palace early in the morning to thank their master, the Queen Mother of the Great Benefactor.

In the Qinzheng Hall, the prince of the North, Liu Tingxi, and Empress Dowager Tang, Shoufu and others discussed major state affairs.

"Sir, Liu has an immature idea about the Nanzheng incident. He also wants to ask his elders to give him some advice. Uh, Liu thanks him first!"

In the middle of the hall, Prince Liu, who was tall and sharp-eyed, gathered his official robe wrapped in black and golden silk, and was concise and authentic.

"Your Majesty, you are polite. I wonder if you have any questions. I need to answer them? Perhaps, you can talk about your strategy first. While everyone is here, let's discuss the deployment of the Nanzheng."

This southern expedition, let’s do this first...

After Liu Tingxi briefly explained his plan.

On the throne of dragon and phoenix, Empress Dowager Tang clapped and praised: "Okay! What Prince Liu said is exactly what I am thinking."

"Yeah, Queen Mother, don't worry, I feel that there is no need to make a big fight in the southern expedition. As for the big night and the two countries of Shen and Chu, although they are not our opponents, I do not want the people to suffer..."

He paused and said, "Well, I recommend King Shenxian to go to Zhaoshun. Do you think?" Prince Liu smiled and looked expectant.

Oh? The first assistant Si was surprised. He rubbed the token of the assistant in his hand, looked up at the dragon and phoenix throne and said, "Empress Dowager, I agree with Prince Liu's proposal very much!... Well, it's so good, but I'm still bothering Prince Liu to tell you the specific operation steps!"

"Yes, yes... it's my will!"

Empress Dowager Tang nodded, and several ministers hurriedly agreed. Liu Tingxi calmed down a little, took out a memorial that had been prepared and said: "Qi Gong, this is a guide to the Southern Certificate. Please read it!"

He personally presented the strategy to Empress Dowager Tang, and was about to break down the links for her... but he heard the guards report: "Qi Empress, King Shenxian and his wife are here."

"Hurry, please invite them into the palace!" Empress Dowager Tang glanced at everyone and said happily.

In an instant, Shangguan Zheng and his wife Honghu came in hand in hand. In the Qinzheng Hall, the eyes of the adults looked "swish". The Honghu shrank the little hand that Shangguan Zheng held, and his cheeks were as red as peach petals. He looked down at his toes. His shy appearance made several young officials envious.

"Congratulations to Prince Shenxian, tsk... your princess is so beautiful!" Feng Quan, the Minister of Rites, and others praised.

Seeing the sweet and loving spirit of the two newcomers, Empress Dowager Tang smiled, and her joy was overwhelming. She smiled and waved to Honghuo and said, "Huer, come here quickly and let me see you."

Honghu pursed his lips and smiled, shyly let go of Shangguan Zheng's big hand, and walked up the steps lightly. Shangguan Zheng followed her closely, and the two bent their knees and knelt in front of the dragon and phoenix throne: "My brother and my wife pay homage to the Empress Dowager, I wish my country and the people to be safe, and I wish the Empress and the two emperors will always be happy and safe!"

"Okay, it's great! It seems that the red line between the Prime Minister and the Prime Minister is considered to be right! Haha...haha"

The hall was filled with joy and peace, and blessings were heard constantly. Honghu raised her eyes and pulled Queen Mother Tang and Shangguan Zheng, and tears of gratitude flowed from her pretty little faces.

"Hey, silly kid, don't cry. We can't be busy with this happy day! Now, if you find a husband in the golden beetle, why don't you invite Lord Xiang quickly? Reunion of a family is more important than anything else!"

Queen Mother Tang held the red pot's little hand and tears also overflowed from the corners of her eyes.

"Empress, what's wrong with you?" Honghu asked obediently.

"It's nothing, I remembered some past events... Well, is he good to you?"

Honghu nodded and whispered: "I worry you, the prince...he loves Hu'er very much, very good."

"Then have you... fulfilled your family?" Empress Dowager Tang asked softly with a smile.

"Oh?...The Queen Mother," Honghu's watery eyes looked at Shangguan Zheng, his cheeks turned red, and his little hands covered his face and lay on the Queen Mother's lap.

"Hey, this child, what's wrong with me? I'm just worried about you... Okay, be good, I won't ask... As long as you live a good life, I will be worthy of Lord Xiang. Besides, I'll keep you in my heart long ago, I just wish you happiness forever!"

Shangguan was standing at the steps of the palace, his eyes switching between the Queen Mother and the Red Pot, his face always had a smile, and he looked happy and happy.

After a moment, I heard the Chief Minister laughing and said, "You have reported to the Empress Dowager, the scout has just arrived to report that the situation in the Great Zhou Dynasty has been settled. The Minister of War, Lord Xiang Ying, has led his troops to revolt and was appointed as the army to garrison in our Gebi Pass."

"In this way, I am going to be a villain... Well, Ah Zheng, it is said that you are newlywed with Huer, and I should not send you there..."

Before Empress Dowager Tang finished speaking, Shangguan Zheng raised his eyes and said, "My brother understands, don't worry, Empress! I will start to rectify it now. I believe that it will not take long to return triumphantly.

However, my brother's wife, she has to go back to the house! Now... Hu'er is also the head princess of the royal family, and she has to take care of my brother's costume!"

After saying that, he turned red and stepped onto the steps and hugged the red pot horizontally. He turned around and left with a smile.

"Look, King Shenxian is boundless to favor his wife... It's true!" Empress Dowager Tang smiled with a pretentious smile.

Liu Tingxi crossed the crowd, blocked the palace gate, clasped his fists and said, "Prince, please stay. I am willing to go to Gecko Pass with you!"

Shangguan paused under his feet, looked back at Liu Tingxi and said, "It's so good, this is my true brother, haha!"

"Yeah, according to what Liu knows, the Queen of the Great Zhou Dynasty is still fighting to the death. She is still in Xingding and Shaqi, and there are still a large number of soldiers on standby in these two prefectures, trying to fight to the death with our Northern Tang army!"

"Oh? Prince Liu is so familiar with the inside story. You are so timely raining!" As he said that, Shangguan Zheng put down the red pot, was very excited, and stretched out his hands to hold Liu Tingxi tightly.

Immediately afterwards, they both turned around and came to Empress Dowager Tang to say goodbye. The Empress Dowager comforted and praised them, saying that they were pillars of the court, and ordered the right prime minister Chu Heng and the chief assistant to cooperate closely. They also ordered the commander of Zhuifeng Camp, the Ruxian brothers, to join the two princes.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! After such careful arrangements, Empress Dowager Tang said loudly: "You are protected by the Northern Tang Dynasty. I sincerely thank you wisely for your kindness! Thank you for your hard work!" After that, Empress Dowager bowed to everyone.

"Empress Dowager Xie is wise, Empress Dowager Xie is polite to his subordinates, and I swear to be loyal to him!"

...

Liu Tingxi smiled brightly and walked towards the Queen Mother and said, "Empress, don't worry, I'm in everything!"

When Empress Dowager Tang heard this sentence of neither high nor low, she was shocked. Her heart was shocked. When she raised her eyes, there was already a fog in her eyes.

"Don't worry, I'm in everything!" This sentence was what the former emperor Fei Yunxiao often said to the third lady. At that time, as long as he said this sentence, it would be enough to make her feel at ease and safe.

In those years, she and Feiyunxiao rolled in the bloody storm, and experienced joys and sorrows, life and death, love and happiness together.

Empress Dowager Tang was tearful and her body was trembling. She covered her face with her wide sleeves for a while and then looked up, forcibly making a happy face, and choked and said, "Prince Liu, I want to hear you... I'll say it again..."

"Well, don't be afraid. The southern border is a war. I, Liu Tingxi, are here, don't worry!"

He spoke earnestly and firmly, and his eyes were full of consideration and love.

Queen Mother Tang was very panicked. After many years, since the arrival of Liu Tingxi, she had seen the breath that looked like the sky in this person's eyes many times.

No, it should be the same feeling, or perhaps it is because the appearance and temperament of both of them are like gods. It makes Queen Mother Tang lose control of her mind, just like the Yellow River collapsed into a dam, and she fell into a trance for a moment.

At this moment, she trembled continuously, her creamy little face was pale, and crystal clear tears slid down her cheeks.

Liu Tingxi was panicked. He glanced at the ministers, and they were also panicked... Everyone asked repeatedly: "Empress, Empress Dowager, here is someone, Doctor Xuan!"

Empress Dowager Tang calmed down her mind and said, "I feel heart hurt, you...you will be dispersed!"

I saw Liu Tingxi step forward, rub his hands on his clothes, stretched out his long arms, and hugged Empress Dowager Tang and ran to the Imperial Hospital.

He asked as he walked, "Empress, where are you... uncomfortable? It's okay, it's okay, with Liu Tingxi here, you will be fine, it's okay!"

Queen Mother Tang was nestled in his arms, her thick and warm chest looked so much like him, her big baby... However, Queen Mother Tang was very sober. This person was Prince Liu and her subordinate.

Although he is both tall and stunning, he is Liu Tingxi. Empress Dowager Tang is in pain and closed her tears again.

Her fingers were deeply clenched into the flesh of her palm until she felt a little red.

Behind him, a group of ministers followed, Shangguan Zheng was also among them, his heart was like a sharp blade being cut off... The red pot chased him and looked at him in surprise: "Prince, what's wrong with you? Empress Dowager, is she okay?"

Shangguan Zheng sighed... "It's okay, she has Brother Liu to take care of her, let's go home."

In the long alley outside the palace wall, they walked one after another. Shangguan Zheng stroked his clothes and ran away in the red pot.

...

In the palace, Liu Tingxi saw a woman who was always soft and soft, crying for the first time. He knew that his appearance was like flying clouds, which aroused the sad past of the Empress Dowager.

Alas... He hated his appearance for the first time, and hated this skin. He stuttered at the beauty in his arms, "I'm sorry, it's all bad for Liu Tingxi, I shouldn't have looked like this!"

Queen Mother Tang suddenly opened her eyes and smiled sadly, "Thank you for having you, maybe it's the big baby, I can't worry about our mother and son, so... I'll let me meet you who looks like him."

"Yeah, don't worry, Tingxi will always protect you and the two little princes!"

Queen Mother Tang closed her eyes again, her eyes lashes covered with tears were trembling. Liu Tingxi, who was heartbroken, couldn't help but kissed her...
