Chapter 30 Western Court‧Cold Brother (19)

Feilengcui finally went to war with the Kingdom of Arinanan, but it was not Arinanan who took the initiative to attack. Instead, the vanguard led by Duke Vanaudino galloped through the starry night and caught Arinanan off guard at the border.

This was a war that shocked the entire continent. Cizer had defeated Arinan’s 10,000 troops with 3,000 troops, and marched straight in, driving a nail into the hinterland of Arinan.The Chinese army arrived quickly at this time, and the two parties cooperated internally and externally, igniting a raging beacon on the land of Arinan’an with the force of a prairie fire.

Cesare’s military talent was fully displayed in this battle, but the war did not end quickly. The nobles were shocked to discover that Cesare’s purpose was not to expel the enemy forces on the border, but to occupy Arinan in one fell swoop and incorporate this rich land into the territory of Feileng Cui.

Faced with this crazy move, the nobles divided into two groups.The war faction fully supported Cizer, while the peace faction suggested recalling Cizer to negotiate peace with the Arinanan Kingdom.The Queen, who had been ill for a long time, finally reappeared in front of people. She was extremely thin after recovering from a serious illness, but she quickly took over the power left by Duke Valentino and began to take charge of a country whose hearts were shaken by the war.

Perhaps because the blood of the Esther family flows in her body, the Queen is a natural politician.She has never been in charge of political power. After stumbling at the beginning, she became more and more comfortable in handling political affairs.After using thunderous means to stabilize the court situation, Ye Xuan finally gained a firm foothold in the inner court.At this time, her choice in war became the most important concern of the nobles.

Putting down the official document in her hand, Ye Xuan rubbed her tired brows.Anne walked in with tea at this moment. Seeing this, she said worriedly: “Are you tired? Why not take a rest.”

“It’s okay.” Ye Xuan smiled and shook her head, her eyes involuntarily falling on the e-mail on the table.

Anne paused: “He… still doesn’t want to come back?” The “him” in Anne’s mouth was none other than Cesare.

Ye Xuan was the leader of the peace faction. After taking control of the court situation, she sent ten messages in a row. The content of each message was exactly the same, which was to order Duke Valentino to immediately return to the imperial capital to meet with the Queen.But Cesare turned a blind eye to this, and every time the mail was returned intact, even the paint on the envelope was not removed.

At the same time, good news was sent back to the imperial capital one after another. Under the leadership of Cizer, the imperial army was victorious.Duke Valentino seemed to be risking his life. He was at the forefront of every attack.In just three months, he was injured dozens of times, and once he was even seriously injured and on the verge of death.

When she received the news, Ye Xuan was meeting with court officials.She stood up unsteadily from the chair and seemed to want to walk down the steps, but fell to the ground with a plop.At that moment, Ye Xuan thought that she still loved him.This love has penetrated deep into her bones, even though she warned herself countless times that César was not a suitable lover. He was willing to let go, and she should stay far away.

Just like Cesare could deliberately die for his sister, how could Ye Xuan just watch her brother leave her.If returning to him would still lead to a life of mutual torture, then Ye Xuan would accept it.Because she can’t live without her brother, not even for a minute.

But Cesare was determined and remained unmoved despite Ye Xuan’s coercion and soft pleas in her letter.Ye Xuan smiled bitterly and picked up the e-mail: “Do you really have to chase me to the battlefield before he is willing to take a look?”

Anne’s feelings towards Cesare were extremely complicated. Except for Cesare’s few confidants, she was the only one who knew that the brother and sister had an affair.Anne didn’t like Cesare, but her friend loved that man deeply, so she could only silently support him.However… that callous man did not harm her at that time, but ordered someone to take Anne away quietly and return her to the residence of the Marquis of the Netherlands.

After killing Rey mercilessly, he finally realized how much this incident had hurt Ye Xuan.Therefore, even though Annie’s actions completely angered him, he finally learned to be patient and did not kill her.

“Why did he lie to you then?” Anne has always been puzzled. If Cesare told the truth, Ye Xuan would not mistakenly think that Anne was killed by him and break up with him.

Ye Xuan shook her head and did not answer.She thought that César had probably decided to let go before that, just hoping to make herself hate him and stay away from him.”He is actually a fool…” The girl raised her little face. He loved herself clumsily, like a hedgehog covered with spikes, covered in armor, but with a soft heart.

In the late spring of this year, the war finally ended.

The army returned triumphantly with a full load of victory, and Ye Xuan was crowned the queen of Feilengcui and the Arinanan Empire as well as other territories and dependencies.Holding a gold scepter studded with diamonds and jewels, she put on a newly made dazzling crown at Hagia Sophia, the largest church in the empire.

The army entered the city at this time, and the knights in bright armor passed by the church. The leader, Duke Valentino, reined in his horse unconsciously – he saw the beautiful girl on the high steps. She was wearing a luxurious dress, with the bishop in red and the courtiers in black guarding her on both sides. She stepped down the steps like an elegant swan, walking towards him gracefully.

An invisible force drove Cizer to get off his horse. There were a sea of ​​people on both sides of the street. Amid the deafening cheers, he walked faster and faster, getting closer and closer to Ye Xuan.Suddenly, Ye Xuan lifted up her skirt.The female officials couldn’t help but exclaimed, and saw the Queen throwing down the scepter in her hand and running towards Duke Valentino.

Her long skirt fluttered like waves, and the girl’s long hair flew up.Clang, clang, the church bells rang.Large flocks of pigeons were flapping their wings, and in the dazzling warm sun, she was like a white dove throwing herself into the arms, hugging César tightly.

“Do you love me, brother?”

These were words that Ye Xuan had never spoken, even though she had answered the same question from Cizer countless times.

Cizer looked at the girl and his lips moved.In Ye Xuan’s slightly worried eyes, the man’s face turned red.

“I love… you.” He said this word with some difficulty – a word he thought he would never say in this life.

“I love you too.” Ye Xuan stood on tiptoes, and under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, she kissed Cizer’s lips.
