Chapter 21: Greeting
Three days later. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
A servant came with the news that the general and his wife had led Zhao's army to the outskirts of the capital, and that they had stayed overnight in the suburbs due to the fatigue of the boat and car, and that they would be able to rush to Beijing early the next morning.
Early in the morning, Zhao Shuxuan and Zhao Yucheng went to the city gate to greet them, but they didn't want to see Qi Muyao's people and King Yu's people from a distance as soon as they arrived at the city gate.
Zhao Shuxuan had already expected this, and there was nothing to be surprised about, there was no wave on his delicate face, and when he looked back at Zhao Yucheng, he was already frowning slightly.
When the general guarding the frontier returned to Beijing, the prince personally greeted him, and from the perspective of the people alone, it was the country's attention to the court officials. But in the eyes of insiders, it is nothing more than a power struggle.
Zhao Yucheng glanced at Zhao Shuxuan worriedly, Zhao Shuxuan smiled at him, he pulled out a smile far-fetchedly, and the sorrow in his eyes added a little more.
After approaching, Zhao Yucheng saluted and said: "The young general Zhao Yucheng and his sister will see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness King Yu." ”
Zhao Shuxuan lowered his head and blessed his body.
"Who is this?" King Yu looked behind Zhao Yucheng and asked.
Zhao Yucheng replied: "His Royal Highness King Yu, this is my sister Zhao Shuxuan. ”
King Yu squinted and looked Zhao Shuxuan up and down, his eyes fluttering.
Zhao Shuxuan has seen King Yu's way of acting, he has been greedy for women all his life, he is young, there are already five concubines of all sizes, and his children can already run on the ground.
His biggest weakness is that he can't resist the temptation of women, so in the previous life, he failed miserably in the hands of women, Qi Muyao is a person who is vague and proficient, makes good use of other people's weaknesses, and can always use his weaknesses to the fullest, without giving people any room to turn over.
The gentle and elegant face was the appearance of the future Ming Jun in the eyes of Emperor Xu Wen, and everyone was deceived by Qi Muyao's hypocrisy.
King Yu pinched his chin and said with a smile at Zhao Yucheng: "The sister of the little general's family is really good-looking. ”
"The writing is also excellent." Qi Muyao on the side also boasted.
"Oh? It seems that this king has not returned to Beijing for a long time, and he has missed a lot. King Yu looked at Zhao Shuxuan's eyes even more differently.
Zhao Yucheng looked a little embarrassed, and he didn't know how to respond for a while.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has won awards, but the courtiers dare not be it." Zhao Shuxuan's voice sounded a little cold, and if she wanted to force a smile in front of Qi Muyao, she Zhao Shuxuan really couldn't do it.
"There is nothing to dare to be, there are not many women who can be praised by this king."
The moment Zhao Shuxuan raised his eyes, what he noticed was not Qi Muyao and King Yu, but Gu Qingyuan, who was standing beside Qi Muyao, still in a black robe, which made people have to be impressed.
It seems that she has to send Wuyou to check the origin of this Gu Qingyuan, after all, it is the person next to the prince, and it is still necessary to keep an eye on everything. It's best to be able to put it in the bag and become a new pawn. If he is the one who does things for the prince, he must not stay.
When King Yu wanted to ask something, there was a faint sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and there was a mighty posture, and he didn't have to guess to know who it was.
"Tell Your Highness, General Zhao and his entourage will be here soon."
When King Yu heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward, but Qi Muyao seemed not to be in a hurry.
Gu Qingyuan looked at Zhao Shuxuan with a smile in his eyes. Zhao Shuxuan didn't think so, just thinking that she would be able to see her father and mother soon.
The sound of the horse's hooves got closer and closer, and it didn't take long for the red military flag to appear in everyone's sight, and where the horse's hooves were stepping, the dust was flying, and the figures of the soldiers were almost covered by the flying dust.
Zhao Shuxuan recognized a man and a woman at the front of the team at a glance, and she had missed someone for too long.
