Chapter 2614: Loving the prince, but he doesn’t know (Part 60)

It was already evening when she woke up and Du Jiu Sheng was no longer by her side.  The maids saw her waking up and immediately said, “Empress, the emperor went to the imperial study to handle some matters.  He has already given orders to these servants to serve the empress dinner when she wakes up.”

Although the conferring ceremony hadn’t been held, the people in the palace already started calling her empress.

The title of empress was only a matter of waiting until Nian An was born.

After all, the conferring ceremony was very cumbersome.  She was currently far into her pregnancy and he didn’t want any accidents, so he postponed the ceremony until the prince was born.

Not a single person in the court or harem dared to have any opinions.

“Un.”  Luo Qing Chen nodded before wiping the sweat off her head, “Go and prepare then!”

“Yes.”  Everyone replied.

Luo Qing Chen narrowed her eyes to look out the window.  It was already not early and Du Jiu Sheng wouldn’t go to the imperial study during this time.

Unless……something happened.

At the same time, in the imperial study.

Xu Yue rushed back from the border and came with Chen Yao Yao who arrived in the Mo Country this morning and Ya Nu who managed the palace’s interior.

In front of the four of them was a map of the border.  The Liao Family had devoured four small countries around them and their military might had greatly increased.  The Liao People army’s general Ye Lu Qi had already set their sights on the Dragon Gate Pass.

After the Mo and Chen Countries allied themselves, the Liao People no longer dared to easily touch Dragon Gate Pass.  However, the Liao People recently had a young hero that after becoming a deputy general, they captured many smaller countries with their three armies.  Their military might kept increasing.

This deputy general’s name was Xiao Shen.

“Brother Jiu, the situation at the border isn’t good.  This Xiao Shen has a title of being a master tactician.  I’ve used the tactics that you’ve given me and he’s defeated me again and again.  He really is an expert.”  Xu Yue deeply knitted his brows.  He described the situation of the battlefield one by one to Du Jiu Sheng.

Du Jiu Sheng looked at the terrain of the Dragon Gate Pass before saying, “Dragon Gate Pass is easy to defend and hard to attack.  If he wants to break through, he must use a plan.”

“He used the luring the tiger away from the mountain plan before and I almost fell for it.”  Chen Yao Yao gave a sigh, “It’s a good thing that Xu Yue broke through the siege to save me, or I might not be able to see Qing Chen again!”

Other than coming back from the frontline to discuss the strategy with Du Jiu Sheng, she also came back to see Luo Qing Chen who was about to have a baby!

After all, she had been the most, most, most real witness to this baby!

When this baby was born, she would teach him how to play the zither, how to dance with swords, and become his godmother!

“I was supposed to go to the frontlines with Xu Yue this time.”  Du Jiu Sheng slightly knitted his brows, “But Qing Chen is about to give birth and recently she’s been having nightmares in the middle of the night, so I can’t leave right now.”

When he was with his true friends, he didn’t call himself ‘this one’, but rather ‘I’.

This was his sincere method of treating his friends and brothers.

“Brother Jiu, sister in law is the most important.”  Xu Yue patted his chest, “Not to mention that the palace can’t lack you, so let me handle the battlefield.”

“Right!  Little sister Qing Chen is that good.”  Chen Yao Yao said with a smile, “You have to treat her well!”

“Is there a need for you to say this?”  There was a touch of gentleness that appeared on Du Jiu Sheng’s strict face.

It was because he had obtained Luo Qing Chen that no matter how many troubles he faced, he wiped them all away.

So he wanted to protect the country and protect her even more……
