After my rebirth, I became the Prince Regent's favorite

Chapter 724 Mortality

She took a deep breath and said, "Yue'er is right. Grandma can be exempted from the crime of death, but she cannot escape the crime of living. Let's punish her to continue guarding the Yan family's mausoleum!"

City Lord Yan agreed with the mother and son's decision and immediately ordered someone to send her away.

After Ling Yue recognized his ancestor and returned to the clan, he changed his name to Yan Ling and became the young lord of Xuecheng.

Mrs. Yan was very grateful to Lin Ruoyou. If it hadn't been for her, she might never have known that a biological son existed in this world.

She took good care of her in every possible way and did everything herself.

After about a month, Lin Ruoyou's broken leg gradually recovered.

Although I still can't walk, I can barely stand.

The northwest army was all reorganized and ready to go.

The King of Xijiang has been doing nothing since his conspiracy was exposed.

He was sure that Xiao Sheng was kind and would not attack rashly to avoid suffering for the people.

However, he thought wrongly.

The next day, he received a battle report, saying that Emperor Tianfeng had led an army to capture Yilan City and was about to reach the capital of Western Xinjiang.

He shouted with fear in his eyes: "Xiao Sheng, why don't you practice martial ethics?"

Xiao Sheng led the troops like a broken bamboo, defeating the Western Xinjiang army.

When he attacked the capital of Xijiang in one go, the king of Xijiang opened the city gate to welcome him like a bereaved dog.

He cried bitterly and apologized: "Your Majesty, it was Xiao Wang Lard who was deceived, and that's why he decided to plan the northwest army. Please spare me this time!"

Xiao Sheng spoke slowly: "It's not easy for me to come to Western Xinjiang, and there is no need for the Western Xinjiang royal family to stay!"

With just one word, the royal palace in Western Xinjiang flowed into a river of blood.

Xiao Sheng took great measures to govern Western Xinjiang and changed the name of the city to Xilin City.

As for the appointment of the city lord, it is elected by the people.

After hearing the news, the people in Xilin City immediately became excited.

They never thought that they would still have the right to decide the city owner in this life.

Many aristocratic families tried to win over the people, and for a while, there was an undercurrent in the entire Xilin City.

After all, everyone in the family wants a piece of the pie, and no one is willing to hand over their power.

As the queen, Lin Ruoyou became a favorite, and many noble ladies asked to meet her and gave her gifts in various ways.

In order to avoid all these disturbances, she could only stay behind closed doors.

However, after all, he still did not escape the request of an acquaintance.

Bai Ting came with Bai Zheng'er, and she said with a complicated face: "Now that the Northwest Army has a new general, Zheng'er and I have nowhere to go, so we just want to come to Xilin City and live the lives of ordinary people! "

Lin Ruoyou nodded: "Zheng'er is still young. When the situation stabilizes, let him go to school first. He should read some books!"

Bai Ting responded softly, holding the tea cup in her hand without saying a word.

Lin Ruoyou raised her eyebrows in surprise: "Is there anything else you want to say?"

Bai Ting was stunned for a moment before slowly uttering a sentence: "Leng Qiao escaped!"

Lin Ruoyou's heart tightened, which meant that he might have escaped to Xilin City.

I'm afraid that both she and Xiao Sheng will be in danger!

She said solemnly: "Okay, thank you for informing me of this news. I will be careful with the emperor. You, mother and son, please stay in the mansion for now to avoid being hurt by him again!"

Bai Ting and Bai Zheng'er settled down temporarily and stayed in Qingyou Residence.

It was already evening when Xiao Sheng came back from handling government affairs.

Lin Ruoyou stepped forward to help him take off his clothes and said: "Leng Qiao has escaped. We need to be more vigilant outside the house to prevent him from jumping over the wall!"

Xiao Sheng frowned and said: "Instead of being so vigilant, it is better to find an opportunity to lure him out!"

Lin Ruoyou asked in confusion: "What opportunity?"

Xiao Sheng held her hand and said: "The biggest festival in Xilin City, the Flower Street Tour, is coming. At that time, the two of us will sit on the float and go around the city to have fun with the people!"

Only by using one's body as bait can the cold bridge hidden in the darkness be attracted.

The next day, the gorgeous float slowly walked through the streets of Xilin City.

Lin Ruoyou was wearing a scarlet brocade dress and was stunningly beautiful.

Xiao Sheng stood beside him, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, which made his figure even more upright.

All the people knelt on the ground and shouted loudly: "Long live my emperor, long live my emperor!"

Lin Ruoyou glanced at Xiao Sheng, her pretty face filled with tenderness.

Xiao Sheng held her hand with affection in his eyes.

When the people saw this scene, they couldn't help but talk about it: "The relationship between the emperor and the empress is really great. I heard that during the Tianfeng Dynasty, he did not marry a concubine, and there was only the empress in the entire harem!"

Another person also interrupted: "These officials in Xilin City have made the emperor unhappy. They actually dismissed the concubines from the back house overnight, leaving only the legitimate wife!"

At this time, Leng Qiao, who was standing in the crowd, was filled with murderous intent. He clenched his fists and murmured: "Xiao Sheng, it's all your fault for ruining all my plans. I will kill you in Xijiang!"

Without any further hesitation, he quickly raised his wrist.

I saw a sharp sleeve arrow shot out and headed straight for Xiao Sheng's face.

His face was full of pride, and there was no way for the emperor and empress to escape from this unexpected sneak attack.

They must die!

Just when he was about to raise his head and laugh, he suddenly discovered that the empress who was standing in the float had disappeared.
