The fierce wind is high and boundless, and the falling flowers are rustling and hundreds of birds fly.
Wanli bitter resentment prosperous drunk, down on the island clear turbid wine cup.
The surrounding commoners were standing on both sides and cheering nonstop. Xia Zihou was already used to it. She kept feeling that there was a gaze sweeping over her, but she couldn't see anything. Shaking her head, she lowered her gaze. The army entered the garrison area of Yongan City. Xia Zihou, Advisor Jun, and the others rode their horses to the palace walls of Yongan Imperial Palace. The vermilion gate separated the Imperial City from the outside world.
It was unknown when the Crown Prince, Xia He, had returned. At this moment, he was dressed in a light-colored yellow robe and looked at her with a gentle smile. Minister Wu stroked his white beard with a deep gaze. There was also Xia Mu, who was pursing his lips and smiling faintly. Behind him were the ministers and the ceremonial guards. Although the pomp was not big, it was not small either. Seeing her galloping over, Xia He stepped forward and stretched out his hand to hold her horse, but Xia Zihou avoided him.
"Royal Sister, welcome back." Xiamu raised his eyebrows at her. His tone was indescribably gloomy.
"Rongyang, my father has already sent people to reward the three armies. This must be Military Advisor Helian? I've long heard of your great name." Xia He casually chatted with them. Feng Ling and Zhuo Yuan looked at each other and did not answer. They were not on the same side as the Crown Prince and could not work together, even though they supported the Crown Prince's throne. However, it was inevitable that he wouldn't make up for it in the future! As for Zhuo Yuan, he only looked at the magnificent palace and calculated how much silver he could earn if he snatched all of them.
If Xia Zihou knew what he was thinking, he would definitely laugh at him for being useless. Instead of robbing him, he might as well rob the seven-colored mark. He was the richest man in the world. It was much richer than a place like the imperial palace.
"Your Highness, your words are too serious.”Xia He looked at Xia Zihou and smiled. He gestured to the crowd, and the group entered the main hall of the Imperial Palace.
Xia Zihou and the Crown Prince walked in side by side. Xia Tianlin sat on the throne, his eyes filled with complicated emotions. He was glad that Xia Zihou was unharmed, but he was also thinking about something else. The marriage proposal that he had kept under the memorial for a long time. If this war continued, there would be no benefits for the Xia Dynasty and the Zhao Country. The losses of two people who were godlike in their use of troops were obvious.
"Your son greets father." She bowed to Xia Tianlin as a gesture.
" Greetings, Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty!" The people who followed behind him stood in different groups. In this magnificent palace, the faces of the people who attended the court in summer, which were full of energy in the past, now looked a little pale.
"Everyone, please rise."
"All the beloved ministers are tired from the long journey. This one will hold a banquet at the Heavenly Lake for all the beloved ministers at night. Hou 'er, I called you back this time for your marriage.”Xia Tianlin's words were like a huge stone that smashed into a calm pool of black water, causing a huge storm. The moment these words were spoken, the ministers were in an uproar. Feng Ling's brows slightly furrowed, and his murderous aura was about to burst out in full force! No one could threaten Xia Zihou, no matter who it was!! Zhuo Yuan laughed heartlessly.
"Haha, this general would like to see which capable person is worthy of my wangye and whether they have three heads and six arms.”Zhuo Yuan's voice resounded throughout the hall. The ministers all agreed. Not to mention his highness 'ability, just his looks…it was really difficult to find someone who was worthy of him. Each faction has its own views.
" Your Majesty, I feel that the Eldest Princess is not young anymore. It is time. I just don't know…"** The Third Prince's followers naturally agreed. Once Xia Zihou married, the matters of the Xia Dynasty would no longer have anything to do with her. How could they not agree? This was the perfect opportunity.
"Emperor, this minister agrees. Since ancient times, when a man was in charge, a woman should get married, and a woman's age was the most precious.”The Minister of War had been suppressed by Xia Zihou for many years and he had a grudge that he could not vent. Now, he stood up to Xia Tian and spoke for the Eldest Princess's happiness! However, Feng Ling, who was standing next to Xia Zihou, was emitting a murderous aura that made him tremble in fear.
"Emperor, this official does not agree with this. How could a woman be inferior to a man? Was there anyone present who could help the Eldest Princess conquer Yun City? Was there anyone who could help the Eldest Princess manage the affairs of the court? Emperor, the Eldest Princess has the right to stay or go!" When the Minister of Rites, Sun Ce, and the others had finished speaking, they stepped forward and questioned him sternly. No one in the hall could answer. Xia He stood at the side, smiling calmly as if he was an outsider. The matters of the court had nothing to do with him.
"Lord Sun, you mean that in the Imperial Court, the only person who can make decisions is Imperial Sister? Where do you put Imperial Father? The Great Xia Dynasty is filled with heroes. Lord Sun, you actually said that no one can help Imperial Sister conquer Cloud City? What are you trying to do?" Faced with Xia Mu's reasonable words, Sun Ce was momentarily stumped. Xia Zihou, who had never made a sound before, suddenly laughed out loud.
"Ha, this king is also very curious. General Feng, what about you?”Xia Zihou glanced at Feng Ling, who was bursting with killing intent, and raised his eyebrows.
"This subordinate…is also very curious." Feng Ling saw the warning in Xia Zihou's eyes, and his murderous intent disappeared without a trace. He looked up and saw Xiamu looking at Xia Zihou with a strange smile.
"That's good. Everyone, I hope that my son will find a good home.”As soon as these words came out, those ministers also stopped the rumors. They were all guessing what the good home the emperor spoke of would be like.
After Xia Zihou and the others left the court, they headed straight for the Prince Regent's Residence.
Feng Ling went back to his residence to change his clothes before heading straight to the Prince Regent's Residence. Xia Zihou was currently facing off with the military counselor, and beside him stood an old man and a young man. The younger one was probably the advisor's errand boy, while the older one was the almighty old butler of the Prince Regent's Residence. The prince was still the same as before, but there were fewer people and it was not as lively as before.
"Young Master Feng, His Highness and the Military Advisor are locked in a stalemate. I asked. This emperor wanted to help wangye find a marriage partner, which young master was he referring to?”Ever since they left the court, the news that the Emperor was going to help Xia Zihou find a marriage partner flooded the streets and alleys like a tide. It could not be stopped. On the streets, after dinner, in small buildings and taverns, it was all about Xia Zihou.
"Wangye…Wangye!" Zhuo Yuan roared as he charged into the Prince Regent's Residence. Her steps were extremely fast, and there was a person following behind her. The woman's long hair was tied up, and her entire person flowed with the heroic spirit that was used to be in the martial arts world.
She approached Xia Zihou and said,"Your Highness, I heard that the Emperor is going to arrange a marriage for you?" Did he say which family's young master he was from? So that Suying can help you find out? General Feng, what do you think?" Helian Xuan glanced at Xia Zihou, who had an indifferent expression on his face, and continued playing chess nonchalantly. It was just that the woman's aura of Jianghu made him unable to help but look over carefully.
He was blocked by a rough figure. Zhuo Yuan stood in front of his wife and glared at Advisor Jun, shouting," What are you looking at? This is my wife."
Helian Xuan was about to look away when he saw Zhuo Yuan stagger after being kicked by the woman behind him. He then followed behind the woman obediently. The aggrieved expression on his face was really not suitable for this burly deputy general. Helian Xuan could not help but raise his eyebrows and smile.
"Young Master, you look elegant and graceful. Are you Military Advisor Helian?”Wang Suying took a few steps forward and sat directly in front of the stone bench at the round table. She did not treat the Prince Regent's Residence as someone else's home at all. Feng Ling nodded at the butler and sat down as well. Without a stool, poor Zhuo Yuan could only stand next to his wife. Judging from the look on his face, it was obvious that he was a doting master.
A woman in peach-colored clothes slowly walked over, looking beautiful. There were a few people following behind him, all of them holding some food in their hands. Zhuo Yuan saw Tao Yi coming over with a plate of desserts from afar. He was about to take it, but Tao Yi avoided him with a slightly raised expression. She smiled at Zhuo Yuan and said," Master Zhuo, this is for His Highness. Yours is behind." Was that Military Advisor Helian? You're really elegant." Tao Yi's face turned pink as she spoke, and her originally pretty face was slightly red.
"Yes, that's Military Advisor Helian.”The two of them had already walked from the winding corridor to the pavilion. Everyone placed their food in the place where things were placed around the stop. They secretly glanced at Military Advisor Helian who was sitting calmly and retreated with a slightly red face. Feng Ling smiled when he saw this." Helian, with you here, I'm afraid that the girls in this wangfu won't want to eat or drink again." Especially a certain girl." After saying that, he looked meaningfully at Tao Yi, who was standing at the side and not leaving. Tao Yi was still glaring at him, but when she saw Helian Xuan's gaze fall on her, she couldn't help but blush.
"Miss, can you hand over the Osmanthus Lambs beside you?”His voice was as clear as a person's, with a hint of gentleness. Tao Yi nodded her head with her flushed face amidst the crowd's laughter and handed the Osmanthus Lambs over.
This Tao Yi was usually the most shameless and arrogant woman in the Prince's mansion. She was also the most cheerful woman. Anyone who saw her could feel the enthusiasm in her body. She could smile at Danqing Pavilion, scold you for your mistakes, and laugh with you. However, no one had ever seen this girl whose face was as thick as the city wall blush!
"What are you looking at? Young Master Helian, this lady has taken a fancy to you. If you don't have any objections, how about we choose a date to get married?”
"..." The chess piece in Helian Xuan's hand trembled slightly and landed in the wrong place. He frowned slightly and looked a little annoyed. However, he was sighing in his heart. The people in this Imperial Residence were really not comparable to ordinary people!
“!!”Feng Ling raised his thumb, but he was sighing. Sigh, a grown woman really can't be kept.
“!!!!”Zhuo Yuan stroked his chin. If he had known earlier, he would have used this trick back then. Why would he wait until half a year later to hug the beauty back!
"That's good. I'll go and decorate it for you. It seems that the sooner the wedding dress is made, the better.”When Wang Suying heard this, she immediately started playing with Tao Yi. The male protagonist, who had been ignored, stared at the game with a dark expression. He hadn't even said anything, so what were these people up to? Xia Zihou stared at the chessboard silently.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:111420184:24PM
