"General, we are the womenfolk of Cheng Shi's family. The one sitting in the carriage is our Fourth Miss.”
The leading nanny hurriedly said, but her expression was very nervous as she looked at the pile of grass behind her.
Ling Buyi didn't answer her. Instead, the thin brother of the two brothers, Liang Qiuqi, said.
"We are under the orders of the Imperial Court to arrest the suspect. Men! Search the carriage!"
Immediately, the black armored guards were about to search the carriage, but it was also at this moment that the granny became anxious!
"No! My young master is not married yet, how can I search your carriage?”
However, at this moment, a soft voice sounded from the carriage.
"Manager Li! We are the family of a female general. How can we delay military affairs?”
"Generals, please don't take offense on account of his cowardly appearance.”
Hearing this voice, Jia Huan suddenly burst out laughing.
Ling Buyi looked at Jia Huan curiously. He had thought that Jia Huan was a serious person when he saw that Jia Huan was extraordinary. He did not expect that Jia Huan would still smile.
However, Jia Huan knew what Cheng Shaoshang was going to do next. She was going to point out her uncle's hiding place. Although this would avenge her, it would cause her some trouble.
After all, filial piety was the most important thing in this era. Although righteousness was praised by the world, at home, relatives would definitely not let you off.
Therefore, when Cheng Shaoshang wanted to continue speaking, Jia Huan interrupted him.
"Alright, he's in the haystack over there. Just go and take him down.”
"Miss Cheng, please leave quickly. What happens next has nothing to do with you.”
Listening to Jia Huan's words, Cheng Shaoshang's heart jumped. Did Jia Huan know what she was thinking?
Manager Li was shocked.
"No! No!"
As expected of a stupid woman. She lost her composure in an instant. Seeing this, everyone understood that the person was indeed hiding in the haystack.
Without much effort, Dong Cangguan was indeed captured, and he directly crawled over to Jia Huan and the others.
"General, please spare my life! General, please spare my life! I'm Cheng Shicheng's uncle, please be magnanimous!”
Before they could ask him about it, this guy was already scared silly. It seemed that he was also a spineless person.
However, Ling Buyi wouldn't tell him this. He directly ordered for him to be taken away before cupping his hands at Jia Huan.
"Many thanks, Lord Marquis. If it wasn't for Lord Marquis, perhaps we would have to spend some effort today.”
Of course, he was just being polite. With Ling Buyi's intelligence, even if Cheng Shaoshang didn't remind him, it wouldn't be difficult for him to find Dong Cangguan.
At this time, Cheng Shaoshang, who was in the carriage, was stunned. He looked at Jia Huan in surprise.
"He looks to be one or two years younger than me. He's actually Lord Marquis?”
(It has been mentioned many times in the book. Because it is a world of film and television, the ages of the characters will change. Otherwise, how can they be put together?)）
Cheng Shaoshang had always been raised in a village in the countryside. When Jia Huan rose to power, she was not in the capital.
She even hid in the mountains for a while because of the attack from the Tartars.
That was why he still did not know Jia Huan's name. Otherwise, Jia Huan would have long been famous in the capital.
"Since that's the case, let's return to the capital together. It just so happens that we have to report to His Majesty.”
Jia Huan said with a smile. As for Cheng Shaoshang's words, he was not in a hurry.
The southwest army had returned to the capital, and this time, they would confer many titles to the nobility. Even Cheng Shaoshang's father would be conferred the title of Marquis Quling. It was enough to show that the four dukes and the other older generation of nobility would soon become a thing of the past.
Looking at the backs of Jia Huan and the others leaving, Cheng Shaoshang's eyes seemed to be thinking about something. He always felt that this person was a little strange.
(Cheng Shaoshang was not a transmigrator, so he took the TV series version.)）
"The capital is back again!"
Jia Huan said with a sigh. Speaking of which, he had missed his sisters after leaving for so long.
However, he still had to go to the Imperial Palace to report on his work before he could return to the Marquisdom.
However, he had already sent his guards back to report in advance. After all, he was still a disciple of the Jia family. If he did not report, it would obviously be against the rules.
The journey to the Imperial Palace was smooth and unobstructed. Jia Huan, Gu Qianfan, and Ling Buyi immediately bowed.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
The Zhou Dynasty did not have a kneeling ceremony. Other than when worshipping ancestors or when they were questioning others, they usually just bowed.
"Hahaha! It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!”
The emperor was very excited to see them. He even coughed and noted that Emperor Jing De's health had been getting worse over the years.
"In the past, I was already ecstatic to have Undoubtedly, but now there's another Jia Huan. It's really a blessing for my Great Zhou!”
"I hope that the two of you can help each other and continue to serve our Great Zhou.”
Hearing Emperor Jing De's words, the two of them bowed.
"We will do our best."
Looking at the two young men in front of him, Emperor Jing De was more and more satisfied. Finally, he asked them about their official business.
Jia Huan's salt administration, the night banquet map, and the ban on the sea were all handled very well. Now that he knew the whereabouts of the night banquet map, he was not in a hurry.
On the other hand, Ling Buyi's side had said that the southwest army had directly destroyed South Yue Kingdom, which had increased the credit of expanding the territory. Thus, Emperor Jing De's confidence was even greater.
Because of Jia Huan's deterrence, he had helped Ling Buyi obtain the position of Grand Commander of the Imperial Army!
"The fifty thousand soldiers of the capital camp are in the hands of our Marquis Champion.”
"And now, the 30,000 soldiers of the Imperial Army are in Buyi's hands. This one isn't afraid that you will laugh at him. Only today did this one dare to sleep in peace!”
Emperor Jing De sighed with a hint of loneliness in his eyes. After all, the Retired Emperor, Qingliu, and many other forces had suppressed him quite a bit.
Jia Huan and Ling Buyi looked at each other before cupping their hands at the Emperor.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. With us around, those scoundrels will definitely not be able to make a comeback.”
Emperor Jing De was very happy to hear their conversation. He wanted to invite them to dinner, but he was in poor health, so they simply left.
After leaving the palace, Jia Huan said to Ling Buyi.
"General Ling, if you are free, you can come to the Marquisdom to find me.”
Hearing Jia Huan's words, Ling Buyi nodded. Although he did not smile, he was willing to get close to Jia Huan because he admired Jia Huan's bravery and ability.
After the two of them bid farewell, Jia Huan returned to the Jia Residence with the Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun.
He had originally wanted to go directly to the manor, but the people from the manor said that Grandmother Jia had prepared a banquet to celebrate his victory, so he had no choice but to go to Rongxi Hall in Rongguo Manor first.
