Chapter 167 Han Shangshu is dead
Dongmei has a gentle temperament, is good at dealing with people, is not fussy about details and has a strong sense of independence.
Both of these girls are very good. I wonder which one Brother Qiao likes?
It seems that she also wants to secretly test these two girls to see if any of them likes Brother Qiao.
"Men should get married when they are old enough, and women should get married when they are old enough. General Qiao, you are indeed old enough to start a family. When I return to Jinxiu City, I will definitely help you pay attention to the ladies in the capital. If there is a suitable one, I will write you a letter and ask my father to grant you marriage."
Long Shijun patted his chest and promised, "I will take care of your marriage."
With Qiao Sheng's current status, I wonder how many women are vying to marry him.
"Don't do that! Thank you so much for your kindness, Your Majesty."
Qiao Sheng waved his hand quickly and said, "I think that marriage is about mutual affection. Although the young ladies in Beijing are good, I was born in the army and am a rough man. I am afraid that I can't get along with those spoiled young ladies."
"I understand!" Long Shijun nodded in understanding.
Almost all Chu family members, both men and women, are good at martial arts, and most of the wives they marry are also good at martial arts. Qiao Sheng was brought up by General Chu, and naturally wanted to marry a woman who is good at martial arts.
"It's getting late. I wish Your Majesty a safe journey." Qiao Sheng said.
"Okay then!" Long Shijun jumped on his horse, "Pingling Pass will be handed over to you from now on."
"Take care!" Chu Feiyan also nodded to them and got on the carriage. Gong Beixuan was already sitting in the carriage.
The carriage started moving, followed by the guards from the Princess's Palace and Prince Qing's Palace. A team of several hundred people returned to the capital.
It is early autumn now and the weather is getting cooler.
They did not travel very fast and only returned to Jinxiu City twenty days later.
They entered the city in a low profile, and the people of Jinxiu City did not know that the hero in their hearts had returned.
After entering the city, the three of them went directly to the palace to meet the emperor.
Because of the victory, the emperor was in much better spirits. He met them in person, praised Chu Feiyan greatly, and rewarded them with a lot of gold, silver and treasures.
Chu Feiyan and Gong Beixuan both looked indifferent.
The emperor continued, "The reason why I summoned you back so quickly is because the Dalin Kingdom sent an invitation letter, wanting to invite Feiyan to celebrate the birthday of the Dalin Emperor."
Chu Feiyan and Gong Beixuan looked at each other, both looking unhappy.
They had just defeated the Northern Qi Kingdom, but the Dalin Kingdom specifically invited her to celebrate her birthday at this time. What did the Dalin Emperor want to do?
"October 20th is the 45th birthday of Emperor Dalin, and the Crown Prince is invited to attend the birthday celebration. Chu Feiyan and Prince Qing and his wife are also invited.
But you also know that my health is not good, the crown prince is now the regent and cannot leave, and Prince Qing is still young and cannot handle the heavy responsibility, so I can only let you go on behalf of Longyuan State." The emperor said.
"Wei Chen takes orders!"
It was hard to disobey the emperor's will, so Chu Feiyan had to agree.
She also had her own plans. It was time to visit the capital of Dalin Kingdom. Perhaps she could find Long Shiyu and the people from Qingjian Sect and kill them.
But it is not difficult to see the emperor's thoughts. He did not let the prince go because he was afraid that the prince would be in danger!
"It is September 11th now, and there is still more than a month until your birthday. You can rest for a while before going to Dalin Kingdom." said the prince.
"Since Feiyan is going, I would like to accompany her for a walk, but I don't like to show up in public, so don't write my name on the list of envoys."
Gong Beixuan's words were not to seek the emperor's consent, but to give direct orders to the emperor.
The emperor looked displeased.
Seeing that the emperor was silent, the prince had no choice but to speak, "Okay."
After they finished talking about the matter, Chu Feiyan and Gong Beixuan left the palace and went to the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion to see their grandfather first.
When they entered the city, Chu Feiyan had already asked Xia An to deliver a message to his grandfather, and the Chu family already knew that they were all back.
The old Duke was overjoyed and ordered a family banquet to be prepared to welcome them.
Chu Feiyan and Gong Beixuan arrived at the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion and saw that a table full of delicious dishes had been prepared in the hall, waiting for them to take a seat.
"Sister, when the news that the Crown Prince of Northern Qi was shot dead by you was sent back to Kyoto, you don't know how happy the people in the city were. Almost every household set off firecrackers to celebrate." Chu Wenzhao told her happily.
"Sister Princess, the people said that when you return triumphantly, they will dance with big lions at the city gate to welcome you. Who knew that you would come back quietly like this? They must be very disappointed if they knew!" Xiao Shuyue said happily.
"Yeah." Chu Feiyan just smiled and asked casually, "During the time we were away, was there anything else that was happy?"
"Yes, Minister Han died of illness the day before yesterday." Chu Wenzhao was surprised by the death of Minister Han.
Such a profit-seeking person actually died of illness like this. It feels like it must be retribution!
The Han family has always been dissatisfied with the Chu family. Han Zhiyu even deliberately hooked up with Xiao Changchuan to destroy her sister's marriage. Now that Shangshu Han is dead, the Han family will be finished, which is a happy thing for them.
"He died quite quickly." Chu Feiyan did not expect Minister Han to die so soon. With the dosage of medicine she gave him, it would take at least a month.
She didn't want to mention this person anymore, so she looked at the Xiao brothers and sisters and said:
"Xiao Changqi, your Emperor Dalin is celebrating his birthday next month, and you have invited us and Prince Qing to attend. You should come back with us!"
"Really?" Xiao Shuyue was immediately happy when she heard it.
"That's great! Princess sister, my father wrote to me saying that he has always wanted to see you. If the war hadn't suddenly broken out, they would have probably already arrived in Jinxiu City.
It is such a coincidence that His Majesty invites you to Dalin Kingdom this time. When we arrive at the capital of Dalin Kingdom, I will take you to visit our home. Father and mother will definitely be very happy to see you."
"Okay, Yue'er, let's talk after dinner. The food is getting cold." Xiao Changqi gave her a secret wink.
This sister is good in every way except that she likes to talk too much.
"Okay, let's eat first." Everyone stood up.
"Grandfather, let's go eat first." Xiao Shuyue helped the old Duke up and sat him on the chair in front of the dining table.
Everyone sat around the table and had a great time.
It was not until the evening that Chu Feiyan and Gong Beixuan returned to the princess's mansion.
Perhaps because he was too tired, Chu Feiyan slept very soundly that night and did not wake up until noon the next day.
Xia An and Dong Mei came in to help her wash and told her something, "Xiao Yurong was divorced by the Su family and kicked out of the house. Now she has returned to live in Xinwuhou Mansion."
"Oh?" Chu Feiyan was surprised. She hadn't heard from Xiao Yurong for a long time. "What did she do wrong?"
"It is said that someone secretly drugged one of Su Mao's favorite concubines and caused her to have a miscarriage. Su Mao gave her a letter of divorce and had her kicked out, and none of the dowry she had brought with her was taken back, as it was all confiscated by the Su family." Dongmei said with great relief.
