Another three days had passed, and the injured officials of the imperial court were slowly recuperating, but unfortunately, the dead officials were also replaced by the capable men that Yan Mo Chen had searched for, causing Shen Qian Xun's injuries to gradually improve. With him supporting the imperial court, the ministers who supported Prime Minister Luo in the past also slowly stopped thinking about it, they were still wholeheartedly supporting Qiao, supporting Prime Minister Luo back then only because they did not agree with the useless female emperor and did not wish for the Qiao Nation to be destroyed, but now, everyone could see Qiao Qiao's means of fighting against Prime Minister Luo, and they naturally acknowledged this girl that did not conform to the imperial court.

Currently, within the imperial court, there were only Qiao Qiao and Yan Mo Chen's trusted aides.

Ever since He Huan You left that day with a black fog surrounding his hand, he had never been to the palace again. This also made Qiao Qiao feel at peace for a while.

The corner of his mouth carried a faint smile as it gradually entered the early winter. The weather had also become extremely cold, and even though Qiao Qiao was still wearing a white fox fur coat, his face was still so cold that it had become slightly red.

"Why is the Emperor's mood so good today?" Qiao Qiao was still as pleased as ever. She could even feel Qingwu's wild thoughts. The emperor was in a good mood, so she couldn't help but feel better. "Is it because of you taking care of the biggest hidden danger in the court?" Now that the country is at peace, the four seas at peace are indeed something to be happy about. "

"Haha, silly girl." Dealing with Prime Minister Luo's family was within her expectations, not something that made her happy. Today, she was not in a good mood because of the letter that was sent from Python County in the morning, she did not need to think to know who had sent it.

"Isn't it?" Qingwu couldn't help but laugh at Qiao Qiao's words. She couldn't figure out what other things could cause the Emperor to be so happy other than the matters of the previous dynasty. Qingwu suddenly came to a realization. She really was an idiot. The emperor's smiling expression was naturally because of the regent!

"Is there any news from the prince?" Qingwu seemed to have thought it through as a cheerful voice came from her mouth.

"Right." Qiao Qiao still pursed his lips and smiled as he lightly nodded. His appearance was as charming as a young girl who had just opened her heart.

"Haha, this is great! Your highness must be coming back, right?" Qingwu laughed loudly and continued to ask.

"He didn't say anything about that, but he did say that the Pian County iron mine was operating pretty well." Qiao Qiao still had a proud smile on his face. This was the first time the two of them had worked together to produce an industry; naturally, he was incomparably proud.

"Congratulations your majesty. Besides obtaining internal worries and winning the iron mine, in the future, the country of Qiao will definitely prosper." Qingwu chuckled. She was still following by Qiao Qiao's side. Naturally, Qiao Guo was the best. As long as the emperor was good, she would be good.

"The internal troubles have already been removed. It would not be good to get rid of external troubles." A trace of worry flashed through Qiao Qiao's previously carefree eyes. No matter how strong the Demon Palace was previously, she did not worry at all. However, now that this Demon Lord had grown up with her, her heart could not help but sink into a tangle.

Qingwu saw the worry in the emperor's eyes, so she naturally knew what the emperor was worried about. As for the relationship between the Demon Lord and the emperor, she also understood a bit. No wonder the emperor was in such a difficult situation.

"Forget it, let's return to the Palace." Qiao Qiao let out a small sigh and headed for the palace.

Qingwu followed closely behind Qiao Yifeng, her footsteps shifted and a look of worry appeared on her face.

Inside the palace, Qiao Qiao ordered everyone to leave. He sat on the dragon throne and flipped through the memorials he had received from the Heartbreak Palace with a slight smile on his face.

"The Zhang Prefecture was infected with the plague, so the illness is relatively minor. It has already been controlled by the local government."

'General Ning has been guarding the border all night, so that the Huns and the rest of the people at the border will behave.

'The new decree of the State of Qiang gives the Supreme Commander a position of power. The management of the State of Qiang shall be organized and in order.

'Python County's new county decree, assisting the Regent in excavating iron ore, upright and honest, not embezzling nor accepting bribes, the people of Python County live and work happily. '

"… …"

Qiao Qiao was still looking at the reports from different places on her hands and her mood became slightly better. Qiao's worries were cleared and she was now flipping through the memorials and looking at the good news from all over the country, she became more and more at ease with what the Emperor was doing.

As before, Joe gently put down the last imperial report and leaned his head back against the Dragon Throne. He placed both hands on his eyes and gently rubbed them.

"Tired?" A familiar voice came from behind her. Following that, a pair of warm palms landed on her shoulders and gently kneaded them with just the right amount of strength.

She turned around and looked at a man in white clothes floating behind her. She happily grinned and placed her palm on the man's silver fox mask, gently taking it off. Behind the mask, was still that peerless handsome face, which was smiling at her.

"You …" Qiao Qiao was still so excited that she couldn't speak. The man she had been thinking about for a long time suddenly appeared in front of her. "Why are you back?"

"Aren't you happy that I'm back?" Yan Mo Chen pursed his lips and pretended to be angry.

"How could that be? I just didn't think of it …" No, I just … How could you appear in the Imperial Palace like this? " Jo was still wild with joy, and her words were confused, and in the end she herself did not understand what she was trying to say.

"Silly girl, if you have something to say, then say it slowly. Don't worry." Yan Mo Chen chuckled and pointed at Qiao Qiao's nose as he spoke with a doting gaze.

"I, I mean, why did you come back like this?" After seeing Yan Mo Chen, Qiao Qiao still did not close her mouth. She extended her hand to shake the fox head mask in her hand and asked.

"I just missed you too much." As Yan Mo Chen spoke, he held Qiao Qiao tightly in his embrace, his head resting on her shoulder. His nose was sniffing as if he was sniffing the fragrance on her neck.

Joe's eyes were still warm as he reached out and hugged Yan Mo Chen's broad chest.

"I missed you too." Qiao Qiao's tone was still gentle. She snuggled against Yan Mo Chen's chest with all her might and smiled coquettishly.

"Hiss ~" Yan Mo Chen sucked in a breath of cold air. It was extremely light, but it still entered Qiao Qiao's ears.

"What's the matter with you?" Qiao Qiao stood up in a hurry and inspected Yan Mo Chen's body.

"I'm fine." Yan Mo Chen shook his head, there was a hint of regret between his brows, as if he was regretting not holding back before falling into the trap of Joe's presence. At that moment, he looked at Joe still as if nothing had happened, and a smile appeared in his eyes.

However, Qiao Qiao managed to see through her forced smile. However, she did not speak aloud and placed her hand on Yan Mo Chen's chest again. This time, her actions were extremely gentle.

Now that the two of them had reached a tacit understanding of each other, she guessed it through yet did not ask him about it. He saw through it but did not say anything.

Yan Mo Chen smiled faintly and caressed the hair that was as black as ink before him. Being able to hold her in his arms again was the happiest thing in his life.

"Yan Mu, send me the message that someone from the Demon Palace has attacked the imperial palace?" Yan Mo Chen asked, refusing to let go of Joe's arm and stroking her hair.

"Right." Joe still answered, but he had already scolded Yan Mu a hundred and eighty times in his heart. She had already told Yan Mo Chen in advance that he was not to inform Yan Mo Chen about this matter, lest he distract himself in a foreign land.

"You and the Demon Lord have known each other for a long time?" Yan Mo Chen's mouth was filled with a faint hint of probing. He told the truth about everything that happened when the people from the Devil Palace broke into the palace, including the scene of Qiao still meeting He Ming You You You.

"Right." Qiao Qiao nodded again. This time, she really wanted to pull Yan Mu over and give him a good beating. Even though she knew Yan Mu was Yan Mo Chen's trusted aide, she never expected him to betray her!

"It's good that you're fine." To Qiao Qiao's surprise, Yan Mo Chen did not continue asking and instead said something senseless.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. The Luo family has collapsed." Qiao Qiao still knew in her heart that since Yan Mu could explain the matter regarding the Devil Palace, he would definitely tell her about the Luo Family's downfall. For a 'frank' secret guard like him, she really should 'reward' him well in the future.

"Didn't I say that during my absence, I would not have any direct confrontation with Prime Minister Luo?" Yan Mo Chen's eyes showed his reproach, but most of it was filled with concern, "Luckily you are fine, otherwise if the Luo Family was destroyed, it would not be able to quell the anger in my heart."

Qiao Qiao still did not answer. Both his arms were wrapped around Yan Mo Chen's waist. He was swinging his arms like a child who had committed a sin, acting like a spoiled child.

"I came back secretly this time. The matter of the iron mine is not over, I still have to go back." Yan Mo Chen said as he looked out of the hall and saw the sky darken.

"You still want to leave?" Joe still frowned. Her fine brow was full of reluctance.

"Hmm, seeing that you're fine, I'm really relieved now." Although the journey from the capital to Python County would take at least three days, he had only used one day and one night to gallop on his horse, killing three fine foals along the way before rushing back. Seeing that she was completely unharmed, he could finally relax and return to clean up Python County.

"Fine." Qiao Qiao still lowered her eyebrows. After all, it was Yan Mo Chen's idea to leave the capital and head to Python County. Even if she did not want to part with him, there was nothing she could do.

"Silly girl, wait for me. I will be back soon." Yan Mo Chen lovingly tapped the tip of Qiao Qiao's nose and slowly bent down. He gave Qiao Qiao's lips a light peck and turned around, afraid that he would not be able to leave if he looked back.

Qiao Qiao stood where she was as she looked at Yan Mo Chen's retreating back. Her eyes were warm, and she knew that he must have been injured during this trip. Even if he had tried to force himself to endure in front of her, she could still tell that this wound was definitely not shallow.
