April of the fourth year of Zhenguan.
Fifty miles south of Yunzhong City in Yunzhou, there is the Luoyun Ancient Road, inside the Tang Army Camp.
"Imperial decree!"
"Li Jing, the commander-in-chief of Dingxiang Road Marching Army, accepted the order."
"The Emperor of Fengtian Chengyun issued an edict: Li Jing, Minister of the Ministry of War, has fought hard and led an army of 120,000 people to fight hard for nearly a year. Now the enemy has not made an inch forward and our army is in high momentum. It is all the result of my love for you. I am very pleased. I am particularly pleased. I will give you hundreds of jars of fine wine as a token of comfort, and I will promote you to the rank of General of the Luoyun Road Marching Army. I appreciate this!"
The summoner from Chang'an completed the call.
All the generals in the military tent knelt down and did not dare to move. The leader Li Jing was so red that his face was pressed to the ground, and his beard was soaked with sweat.
"General, why are you still standing there? Why don't you accept the order and thank you?"
Li Jing did not dare to raise his head, but raised his hands above his head to receive the imperial edict, then turned around and respectfully placed the edict on the table before standing up.
Just as he was about to say something to the edict officer, the nobleman in the palace had an indifferent look on his face. He shook the whisk and snorted, then turned around and left the tent.
After walking out, he turned around and left a message inside: "Drink the wine given by the Emperor to your heart's content, and don't let down the Emperor's good intentions."
There was silence in the military tent, and all the generals under his command were still kneeling on the ground, showing no intention of getting up.
Li Jing's face turned red and white. He grabbed the door curtain fiercely and tore the good door curtain to pieces.
"Report!"
The soldier suddenly rushed over and almost hit Li Jing.
Li Jing's brows stood up, and he raised his hand to give the soldier a slap.
But I heard the soldier gasping and saying: "General, the lady is back!"
"What did you say?"
The sudden news changed Li Jing's mood drastically. He grabbed Xiao Bing's collar and asked, "You said Shu Wang is back?"
"Yes! It's absolutely true, that Doctor Bai brought the young lady back!"
All the generals in the military tent heard this almost unbelievable news. The generals who had been refusing to get up finally stood up and exchanged looks with each other, all with expressions of disbelief.
The young lady returned, and the haze in the general's tent instantly disappeared.
Li Jing didn't care much anymore and let Xiao Bing lead the way: "Where is Shu Wang?"
The soldier led the way excitedly, and after only walking a few steps, the generals stood at the school grounds and saw a group of people riding in from the entrance of the military camp. The young lady from the army was sitting on her beloved horse. Who else could it be if she wasn't Li Shuwang?
But behind her, a man was hugging her without any scruples, while the young lady was leaning in the man's arms with a smile on her face, looking as intimate as a man and woman in love.
But she is a young lady after all, the granddaughter of a general. It is a bit dazzling to be so careless in the army.
There were a few people behind, the same guards who had followed. Although not all of them came back, it was still exciting to see this scene.
Now, who would care about the intimacy between a young lady and a man?
"Miss is back!"
"Miss is back!"
The news spread quickly among the army, and more and more people came to watch.
This lady indeed has a special status in this army. She is the softest person in the ruthless army, guarding the tenderness deep in the heart of every soldier. Seeing the lady return safely, it is more like extinguished hope. The fire was rekindled, giving everyone's numb nerves a brisk jump.
In just a few steps, the surrounding soldiers gave the team a way to pass without too much cheering or shouting, but the devastated soldiers secretly wiped away their tears.
Finally returning to their own land, Bai Song and his party were filled with emotion. Everyone was carrying a dusty body, and recalling the experience of these three months was indescribable.
The only one who didn't feel anything was Bai Song. He sat on the horse and hugged everyone's young lady more skillfully. He secretly reached in to touch her soft belly, and secretly squeezed his little hand that couldn't hold it enough.
The journey back was very fast, and everyone was tired. Only Bai Song, the frivolous girl, enjoyed it all day long, and kept traveling day and night without feeling tired at all. He knew this was the power of love.
Li Shuwang saw his grandfather and quickly slapped the mischievous hand in his clothes. He turned around and glared: "Don't be so presumptuous."
Bai Song took back his hand with a smile and sniffed it gently.
Li Shuwang got off his horse and ran towards the stunned old man in front of him. He didn't say anything, he just threw himself into the old man's arms and never let go.
Li Jing frowned, and the old man's eyes were a little more moist. He hugged his granddaughter tightly and was silent for a long time. He patted her hard on the back and said softly: "It'll be good to come back! It'll be good to come back!"
"Grandpa, I..." Li Shuwang had countless things to say to his grandfather, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Li Jing stopped being gentle.
"Shu Wang, the emperor has just issued a decree. Grandpa has important military matters to deal with."
Li Shuwang was stunned for a moment, a little disappointed, but after hearing that the emperor had a decree, he knew it was a more important matter, so he nodded quietly without saying anything more.
Afterwards, Li Jing returned to the military tent and began to discuss with the generals.
Bai Song and his party were arranged to rest somewhere else.
Bai Song was not surprised by this. Compared with the military situation, the return of a small group of them was nothing at all.
Bai Song was also happy to be quiet, and wanted to stay with Shu Wang even more.
Of course, you have to be careful with the woman you have worked so hard to get back. If you lose her, you will suffer a big loss.
Sitting in the small military tent, the two of them lay down separately. After relaxing their bodies and minds, they felt indescribable fatigue and wished they could just sleep to death.
"It looks like I brought you to the military camp for the first time, and we were lying like this." Li Shuwang said lightly.
"Yeah?"
"Thank you, Bai Song. If not..."
"How can I thank you?" Bai Song tilted his head and looked at the woman beside him seriously.
Li Shuwang looked at Bai Song's dirty eyes, pursed his lips, and blushed, but didn't say anything.
"I've thought about it a long time ago. You have to agree to it for the rest of your life. You have to repay this kindness for the rest of your life."
"How come you are not serious?"
Bai Song sat up: "Isn't this serious? If you don't marry me, who else can I marry?"
"You...please keep your voice down!" Li Shuwang was panicking, his face getting redder and redder. How could he know that this shameless guy could say such things so brazenly.
Bai Song leaned close to Li Shuwang's ear and asked in a low voice: "Are you getting married or not?"
"What about your Xiang'er in Mang County? And Na Sang Sang."
"Sang Sang is my sister! As for Xiang'er..." Bai Song frowned slightly and his voice broke.
Li Shuwang's expression gradually became calm and he smiled softly: "Think about it again, I'll wait for you."
"Brother Bai." He Fangzhu shouted outside, then opened the door curtain.
The two people in the tent immediately separated and took care of their clothes.
He Fangzhao had long since become accustomed to the strange things, and smiled and said indifferently: "Brother Bai, come out quickly, there are many people outside who want to hear the stories of our journey."
