Chapter 1434

Chen Ning did not know when she had fallen asleep.

She slept very soundly.

When she woke up, she could faintly feel that there was something warm beside her. When she opened her eyes, she found that Xiao Ru was curled up at her feet like a little kitten. She was sleeping very sweetly, with sparkling drool coming from the corner of her mouth.

She couldn't help smiling.

Seeing Xiao Ru's carefree appearance, she felt a kind of satisfied and warm feeling.

This palace was not as cold as she imagined. There was not only Mo Chuan here, there was also Xiao Ru.

The two of them were like two warm flames. As long as she saw them, her heart would feel warm.

She did not wake Xiao Ru up and gently covered her with the blanket. Then she quietly got off the bed and walked over to the window. Opening the window, she took in a deep breath of fresh air.

"Young miss, you're awake?" Xiao Ru's confused voice came from behind her.

Xiao Ru rubbed her eyes and looked at Chen Ning's back in front of the window. Only then did she realize that she had fallen asleep on the corner of the bed. She instantly hit her head in annoyance.

"Ah, this servant really deserves to die. I actually slept like a dead pig and even forgot about the important matter the emperor ordered me to do."

"The important matter Mo Chuan ordered you to do? What is it? "Chen Ning turned around in a strange manner.

"Before the emperor left, he ordered this servant to invite the young miss to the north gate if you woke up. But when this servant came in and saw the young miss sleeping so soundly, this servant didn't have the heart to wake you up. I don't know why, but this servant also fell asleep. If this delays the emperor's important matter, the emperor will chop off this servant's head when he comes back."

"Go to the north gate?"

Chen Ning thought about it and understood. She remembered that Mo Chuan had said something before he left. He was leading the civil and military officials to send the Northern Qi envoys back to the north. He hoped that she could also send them off. After all, she was the queen of a country and showing her face at this kind of grand ceremony was her duty.

She looked up at the sky outside. It was not even noon yet, so she changed into the empress' clothes and boarded the sedan. Under the escort of Zhui Feng and the imperial guards, she headed to the north gate.

From afar, he could see the grand procession of people sending him off at the north gate tower.

In order to show their respect to the Northern Qi envoys, Mo Chuan personally led the civil and military officials to send them off.

The soldiers of the Imperial Army wore resplendent armors and bright clothes, and when looked at from afar, they were like a grand and imposing long dragon that one couldn't see the end of.

The Northern Qi envoy looked at this scene and his heart was filled with emotions.

Before he went to West Chu, he didn't put the West Chu army in his eyes and he didn't have any respect for the young emperor Mo Chuan. He thought that he was just a wet behind the ears brat who had only ascended the throne with the support of Empress Dowager Zhou. After ascending the throne, he had to pay tribute to East Qin every year, he was simply too useless!

Northern Qi had always maintained a neutral position among the four countries, and was the target that the other three countries fought to befriend.

Not only did they possess the black iron mine that everyone dreamed of, but they were also renowned for their skill in forging weapons. It was said that the best weaponsmithing master in the world, Qi Yanyu, was from Northern Qi.
