At the entrance of the magnificent palace, the human figure looks extremely small.
Chu Yi was wearing a black and purple court dress. As soon as he got off the carriage, he saw a charming figure in front of him.
The scene in the wooden house on the bandit mountain appeared in his mind involuntarily, the hideous wounds, the white porcelain skin... It was the first time they met after that day.
Although he went to Yun Mansion many times, he always talked to Yun Ze in the study room, and only two children went in to see her.
Every time on the way home from Yun Mansion, Brother Yu was very happy and chattering, and Chang Sheng would also purse his lips and smile.
He knew that the children liked being with the woman in front of them.
Yunchu not only saw King Pingxi, but also saw another man who got off the carriage with him. He was the second prince, King Gongxi.
She lowered her eyes and led Xie Ping over.
Yingying bows down.
"I've met King Gongxi."
"I've met King Pingxi."
King Gongxi smiled gently: "Thank you, Madam, for being so polite."
His thank you to Madam made Chu Yi feel an indescribable discomfort in his heart, and he didn't know why it happened.
"I heard that Mrs. Xie is ill." King Gongxi said, "I wonder if she is feeling better?"
"Thank you, King Gongxi, for your concern. My wife is doing much better." Yun Chu's voice was calm, but his eyes were cold.
There are many princes in the palace, but now only the first four are crowned kings. When the other princes grow up, the palace will gradually become chaotic.
At that time, the Yun family kept to itself and was determined not to get involved in the struggle for the throne. In order to win over the Yun family, the second prince visited the thatched cottage three times and failed, so he used Xie Shi'an's knife to kick the Yun family out of the court...
The Xie family is now in her hands.
But it is too difficult to take revenge on the second prince...
Moreover, even if the second prince is really brought down, the next second prince will definitely come to win over the Yun family...
If she couldn't figure it out, she would forget about it for now. Her father would return to the court soon. Then she would have a good discussion with her father and grandfather, and they would definitely come up with a charter.
"Prince Gongxi and Prince Xi, my wife and my daughter will leave first."
Yun Chu was blessed and took Xie Ping on the Yun family's carriage.
"What a pity." Watching the carriage disappear at the gate of the palace, King Gongxi shook his head, "As the eldest daughter of the Yun family, she should have married into the royal family, but instead she became the wife of a poor family. The third emperor's brother, don't you think so? it is a pity?"
When his father selected a princess for him, he actually preferred the Yun family. However, the Yun family did not have any daughters of the right age at that time, and there were some other relatives, but he looked down upon her.
Of course, his current princess, the second daughter of a bachelor, is not bad, but she does not have military power, which is more or less a pity.
Chu Yi said calmly: "Brother Second Emperor, don't say anything like this anymore. It will insult Madam Xie's reputation."
King Gongxi smiled: "If you hadn't already had a son and a daughter, I would have suspected that you were not a man."
Just now, she was the most beautiful woman in the capital. Even he, who was not a womanizer, would feel a slight wave of emotion in his heart when he saw her.
But his third brother didn't even turn his eyes.
No wonder Concubine Yin has been worried about her third brother's marriage. A person who has no interest in women certainly does not want to marry.
Chu Yi stepped forward and walked inside.
When Yunchu appeared just now, he really didn't dare to look at her, for fear of being rude or offended...
The two entered the palace and went directly to the imperial study.
However, the emperor was busy, and the father-in-law said to them: "The emperor and Zhou Meiren are talking in the inner hall. Please wait a moment, your highnesses."
There was no unnecessary expression on Chu Yi's face.
Every time he came back for an audience, his father would either be with Zhou Meiren or Li Cairen... In short, there would always be a concubine in this palace.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Zhou Meiren came out of the palace, and then the two of them followed their father-in-law in.
The emperor sat on the dragon chair: "I asked you two to come together because I have something for you two to do. General Zhu Guo repels the enemy army, defends the country, and protects the people for our country. He is a well-deserved hero. The general will arrive in Beijing soon, and you two will go to greet him in my stead."
The two of them said at the same time: "My son, I accept the order!"
General Zhu was the most trusted person by the emperor. He had 300,000 troops. Every five years when he returned to the imperial court, the emperor would give him the greatest reward. It would not be an exaggeration to say that the whole country celebrated.
King Gongxi and King Pingxi, representing the emperor, rode on large horses and led dozens of courtiers to the outskirts of Beijing to welcome Yun Silin, the general of Zhuguo, who returned to Beijing.
Yun Silin could only return to the capital once every five years. He led 300 soldiers and rode for half a month from the borderland to the capital.
He was still seventy or eighty miles away from the capital when he saw two princes whom he had not seen for a long time. He quickly got off his horse and said, "I have seen King Gongxi and King Pingxi!"
"General, please get up quickly!" King Gongxi supported Yun Silin faster than Chu Yi, "General, you have gone through life and death for me. My third brother and I cannot bear this gift. My father and the officials have already prepared it." Strong wine, just wait until the general enters the city!"
Yun Silin held up his hands, took the reins and mounted his horse, and headed towards the capital together.
The people in the city were already excited.
The Yun family has defended the country from foreign invasions a hundred years ago, guarding every inch of the country and protecting every citizen... Nowadays, the people live and work in peace and contentment, but many people from the Yun family died on the battlefield and never came back.
"Look, General Zhu Guo is back!"
"The last time I saw the general was five years ago. I haven't seen him for five years, and the general is still so heroic!"
"I asked for a life-saving charm for the general. I hope the general can live to be ninety-nine. If the general dies, who else can protect the family and the country?"
"The next generation of the Yun family does not have a general!"
"So many ancestors of the Yun family have died on the battlefield. Isn't it enough? The virtues accumulated by our ancestors are enough. The younger generations of the Yun family should live in peace and stability."
"..."
The emperor and hundreds of civil and military officials stood on the city wall to welcome the generals of the Zhu Kingdom back to the court.
General Zhu Guo and his soldiers knelt down and knelt down to worship, and the emperor had people pass a glass of strong wine to everyone who returned to the court.
"The enemy in Western Xinjiang is determined to invade our territory repeatedly, all thanks to the persistence of the Yun family from generation to generation!" The emperor walked down from the tower and walked in front of Yun Silin, "There are unicorns in the sky, how can the ants in the cave escape? ! The general of the Zhu Kingdom has returned to the capital, and I will take off my shirt with the general!"
The emperor personally took off Yun Silin's shirt.
This is the highest honor.
The emperor handed the shirt to the deputy general next to him. He picked up the wine cup and clinked glasses with Yun Silin: "It's an honor for me to raise a glass with the general. I'll do it."
"Done!"
"Done!"
Three hundred soldiers of the Yun family, including civil and military officials, raised their wine cups at the same time.
After celebrating together, the general entered the city.
Countless people stood on the street to welcome the general back, and Yunchu was also on the second floor of the tavern on the street.
She stood on the fence on the second floor and saw her father who was entering the city with the emperor at a glance. There seemed to be no big difference between her father and her memory. He was majestic and inviolable. If he stood there, he could make two enemies fight. Lost in battle...
Yunchu watched his father enter the imperial city with the emperor.
She turned around and took the carriage back to Yun's house.
He can only go home after his father returns to the palace. Countless court officials will come to visit him. The Yun family is destined to be very busy today.
