Fast Travel Counterattack: Male God, super awesome

Chapter 44 The Rebellious Courtier 22
The two of them looked at each other, speechless for a moment.

Lian Cheng didn't know what to say, and even had the idea of ​​turning around and leaving, but suddenly there was some force that forced her to stop and face Chi Ya.

Finally, Chi Ya walked up to her.

"Is there nothing you want to tell me?" He spoke first.

Lian Cheng opened his mouth, wanting to say a lot, but felt that it was meaningless to say it.

"No." Lian Cheng finally shook his head.

"That's good. I'm gone too." Chi Ya smiled, and the feeling of fear just now disappeared instantly.It was as if nothing had ever happened, and this was still Chi Ya who showed affection and concern to her.

Chi Ya took her hand autonomously: "Come on, you haven't been out of the palace for a long time, I'll take you out of the palace for a walk."

After the attack outside the palace last time, Lian Cheng considered it very dangerous to leave the palace, so he never went out once.But this time, when Chi Ya held her hand, Lian Cheng wanted to say something, but he swallowed it alive.

The two went out to play again.

This time there was no need to cover up, Chi Ya and Lian Cheng changed into light clothes and walked on the street.It's not a festival now, and there aren't many people coming and going. The stalls along the road are in order, making Lian Cheng gradually forget about the chaos that night.

Chi Ya bought something delicious when he saw it on the road, and then handed it to Lian Cheng.Even the oranges were taken, and I ate what I had, and handed them back when I couldn't.Chi Ya would eat everything left.

They walked and watched, and of course there were many people watching them on the street.But seeing their natural expressions, everyone thought it was normal for men and women to hang out. No one would have thought of their identities and the darkness and dangers hidden around them.

Lian Cheng hasn't breathed the wind of freedom from ancient times for a long time.Since she came to this world, she hasn't had the opportunity to take a good look at the daily life and transportation of people in this era.Trapped in a cage called the palace, she has experienced many swords, swords and cannibal plots.Now such a free body seems to have returned to the modern feeling.

This is a power that ancient women never had.

The two came to the lake, and now in spring, the lake has already thawed.Seeing a vast expanse of white reeds swaying there, Lian Cheng couldn't help but speak, one sentence at a time, telling the man beside him the thrill and helplessness that happened that night.

Originally, Lian Cheng didn't intend to tell anyone about these things.But this person is different, with him by his side, Lian Cheng doesn't have to be afraid of anything at all.She doesn't need to hide anything from him, except for those things she can never say, in this era, this is the person Lian Cheng trusts the most.

So she couldn't help but tell him her original panic and confusion one by one.

Chi Ya listened quietly, without any impulsiveness or resentment, but his eyes sunk deeper and deeper, like the lake water that had just thawed in early spring.It was dark.

"If it wasn't for the protection of your imperial guards, maybe I would have died that night." At the end, Lian Cheng sighed: "I would like to thank you a lot. It's all due to you."

"The most important thing is being able to protect you." Chi Ya shook his head and didn't say much.His expression was still calm, but this was outside, and the two of them didn't continue to say anything.

After returning to the palace, Lian Cheng was sent back to her dormitory by Chi Ya. Standing at the door, she faced Chi Ya and said, "... Just send it here."

"Okay." Lian Cheng said.She said with a pun: "Thank you. What you have done for me... is enough."

Chi Ya took a step back and reached a safe distance as she wished: "Not enough."

He raised his head and looked directly at Lian Cheng: "No matter how much I can do for you, it won't be enough."

"..."

Suddenly Chi Ya knelt down, facing Lian Cheng with one knee.Stretching out a hand to clasp Lian Cheng's wrist, Lian Cheng couldn't dodge in time, a kiss was imprinted on the back of her hand.

"My princess, you are my... faith." The young Wang with a different surname said so in the afternoon sun.Lian Cheng's gaze was in a trance for a while, as if he had passed through this time and space and saw another world.

Has anyone ever treated her like this?
So regardless of gain or loss, regardless of all consequences, treat her unreservedly?real……

Lian Cheng staggered back a step, breaking away from Chi Ya's control.She turned around and returned to her bedroom without saying anything.

Afterwards, although the little emperor planned to make the decision to cancel the marriage proposal.But helplessly, the ministers did not agree.They were afraid that they would offend the king with a different surname, and then turn against the royal family, which would be related to the interests of the entire country.So the matter was put on hold indefinitely.

Fortunately, Chi Ya, the Protector of the Capital, never pursued the matter again.He also stopped mentioning the proposal of marriage.But he didn't ask the emperor to withdraw his life.Neither party responded.Others just went to see the joke.

Another two months passed, and midsummer came.

Today's weather is extremely hot, and fires broke out in many places. Disaster relief in the capital, appeasement of the frontier, prevention of floods, etc. have become very intensive.

However, in many places, the crops were not harvested very well due to fires caused by the hot weather.The widespread drought has caused food prices to skyrocket.

The first thing that food prices affect is armaments.

Some people in the court have suggested that we should learn to reduce our armaments in today's food shortage.But it was rejected by many adults.Although it seems to be a peaceful and prosperous world, after all, the war has only just ended for two months. It is very dangerous for the Xiongnu to reduce their armaments on a large scale before they are sure whether they are safe or not.

When they were discussing ambitiously, Chi Ya didn't participate in their discussion, but just listened from the sidelines.

The first impact of reducing armaments is of course his power.But his appearance of not being moved by fame and fortune also won the praise of many upright ministers in the court.

This matter has been dragged on, and finally, under the strong advocacy of the current Prime Minister Songhe, the large-scale military equipment was reduced to one-third of the original, and the capital was withdrawn.

The move met with loud opposition from some in North Korea and China.Originally, many people thought that a student from a poor family like Song He would do more to contribute to the country after taking office.In fact, it was true in the beginning.This allowed Songhe's support to spread throughout the court at first.

Then gradually changed.After Songhe came to power, he began to seize power on a large scale, and most of the things he did were not beneficial to the country, such as fighting for power with the eldest princess.Ignored the vitality of the people.Some time ago, because of the direct conflict with the King Protector who returned to Beijing, he not only lost the hearts of the people, but also lost a large part of his supporters in the court.

After all, no one wants to see the person they desperately support only to prepare themselves for taking power.

Moreover, looking at Songhe's appearance, the current country still belongs to the royal family, and his behavior is no different from that of the eldest princess. This is because he wants to control the government. Can he be the regent?
The princess is in power, and even though she is a woman, she is at least of royal blood.You are in power, what is it?
The seemingly peaceful court began to be turbulent, and various forces were ready to move.

Although Songhe has been very busy recently, he didn't take these things too seriously.What he needs to deal with the most is the princess party headed by Ji Liancheng and Chi Ya, and he doesn't care about anything else.
