" The Emperor has decreed that the Prince of Changsha, Li Ke, and the Marquis of Leping, Xiao Rui, should return to Chang 'an at once without delay.”
After Xiao Rui and Li Ke received the edict, they asked the father-in-law who delivered the edict,""Eunuch, may I ask if something major has happened for the emperor to summon you in such a hurry?”
The eunuch shook his head and said with a dumbfounded expression,""Eunuch Wang asked me to convey this edict. This old servant does not know why.”
Xiao Rui turned around and asked Cen Wen Wen,"Cen Daren, what do you think of the matter of the emperor summoning?"”
Cen Wen stroked his beard and shook his head.""This edict does not specify any reason, so it should not be a big deal. However, the emperor knows that we have only returned today and is in such a hurry to summon us.”
Zheng Liwan smiled sweetly." There's no need to worry about the Traitor and Lord Cen. Just go ahead. I guess the Emperor is just anxious to see the Prince of Changsha and the Traitor. It's not a big deal."”
Xiao Rui glared at Zheng Liwan and ordered Chuyu to pack her luggage. Then, he pulled Zheng Liwan to another part of the carriage to avoid everyone's gaze.
"What do you want? Let go, you're hurting me!”
Xiao Rui looked at Zheng Liwan 'e.| Na Duo Zi's face was filled with lust.| Fire.
Zheng Liwan was so scared that she took two steps back and placed her hands on her chest.|"You're a wanderer," he said,"and you're not allowed to mess around.”
Xiao Rui got angry when he heard about the four of them.
I didn't do anything, and I was given such a reputation for no reason. If I don't do anything, will I be able to face myself?
Xiao Rui pulled Zheng Liwan's hands away, grabbed her fiercely with his right hand, and then left.
Before he left, he didn't forget to say," Don't call me a wanderer in the future. Otherwise, hehe, the consequences will be like this."
”
Zheng Liwan didn't expect Xiao Rui to be so bold.| This was the first time she was touched by a man. She was so scared that tears kept flowing.
"Traitor, Traitor, Traitor!”
Xiao Rui staggered and almost fell!
Is this woman a pervert?| A woman?
……
Xiao Rui and Li Ke finished their preparations and rode away.
No, it was Li Ke riding a horse and Xiao Rui riding a tiger.
The seven-year-old Li Ke was very skilled in riding a horse. Xiao Rui couldn't help but feel happy for him.
To have such courage at such a young age, he was indeed worthy of being praised by Li Shimin.
Li Ke was not simple!
The two of them finally arrived at Xiong City.| Under the magnificent Chang 'an Fortress, Xiao Rui rode the tiger all the way to the Royal Palace under the crowd's horror and praise.
"Imperial Father, Imperial Mother."
When Li Ke saw Li Shimin and Yang Fei, he quickly rushed over and threw himself into Li Shimin and Yang Fei's arms.| She was enjoying the fatherly and motherly love that she had not had for nearly a year.
"Ke 'er has grown taller, but he has lost weight.”
Li Shi Min looked at his third son dotingly. He was very pleased to see that his son looked like him when he was young.
Concubine Yang hugged Li Ke tightly and kissed his face again and again. With tears in her eyes, she said,"It's good that you're fine, my son. I was so worried!”
After Xiao Rui hurriedly bid farewell to Li Shimin and her, Concubine Yang was so frightened that she didn't sleep all night and kept praying in front of the Buddha statue.
The next day, after receiving the news that Li Ke was safe and sound, the worries in his heart were finally put down.
However, her mother missed her son so much that she couldn't help but pester Li Shimin, hoping to send an imperial edict to let the two of them return to the palace as soon as possible to relieve her feelings of missing her son.
Li Shimin, who had always doted on Concubine Yang, broke the rules for the first time and agreed to Concubine Yang's request.
After Xiao Rui saw Li Ke's family of three reunite, he stepped forward and said,"Greetings, Emperor. I have not failed my mission and have safely rescued the Prince of Changsha, Li Ke.”
Li Shi Min took a step forward and patted Xiao Rui's shoulder: "It's all thanks to you that Xiao Rui has you. Otherwise, our family of three wouldn't be able to reunite like we do now. Zhen has already decided to host a banquet for you tonight.”
He shouted out," Men, hurry up and pass down the message. Tonight, I'm inviting Xiao Rui, the Marquis of Leping County, to a banquet. Go and call Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Yuchi Gong, and the others over. Let them have a drink of Marquis Xiao's celebratory wine."”
Then, he turned to Xiao Rui and said," You're tired too. Hurry up and go home to wash up. I'll give you a surprise tonight."
”
Li Shi Min's expression was very sincere, and Xiao Rui immediately agreed.
The emperor's reward was not just gold and silver treasures. He might even be promoted.
Although Xiao Rui was not interested in being an official, he was interested in money. If he was promoted, his salary would be much higher.
Whoever felt bad about money was a fool!
