Chapter 360, Hunting on behalf of the Heavens
The news that King Chengyang was rescued soon spread back to the capital. Because the princess of Chengyang needs to recuperate www.biquge.info the king of Chengyang is not in a hurry to return to Beijing, but stays in the border city to accompany the princess.
The emperor was overjoyed and did not get angry because the king of Chengyang was stranded at the border pass. Instead, he ordered the prince to take 2,000 elite soldiers to patrol the border city, and by the way, he took the king of Chengyang back to Beijing. The crown prince Nangong Xun actually got the secret performance of the border pass as early as three days ago.
At this moment, others were sitting in the East Palace, not knowing what they were thinking. More than a month ago, the appearance of Mu Chenxue when he left is still vivid. He originally thought that even if Mu Chenxue went to the border pass, he might not be able to find the King of Chengyang. But now not only has someone been found, but the King of Chengyang has also returned unharmed.
The king of Chengyang led his troops to commit danger before, and he should be punished as a crime of lightening the enemy according to the law. But now the king of Chengyang not only killed the leaders of the two major tribes of Warat, but also set fire to the grain and grass of the enemy army, compared to the loss of more than 3,000 horses, naturally the merit outweighed the fault. Just looking at his father's overjoyed expression today, Nangong Xun knew that when the king of Chengyang returned to Beijing, his father would only reward him, and he would never mention punishment.
"What's bothering the prince?" Even if Nangong Xun became the crown prince, Liuyun and Yinwu were still by the master's side day and night, just like when they were in the palace before.
"You said, if it was Prince Ben who went to the border pass to fight the enemy, and it was Prince Ben who disappeared, would Princess Chengyang run to the border pass to save me regardless of life and death like now?" Nangong Xun asked these words, but he smiled bitterly first.
There is no need to answer this at all, of course Mu Chenxue will not go to the border alone for him regardless of his confinement yet, he asked these words at this time, but he was unwilling. In the past, he was just a county king, and he didn't have so much power in his hands, so he naturally had a little less desire in his heart.
But now he is the crown prince, the future emperor, who is in charge of the life and death of the world. But he couldn't even get his favorite woman. I still have to watch her and be with my brother. At this moment, he actually hated Nangong Shumo. I hated myself even more.
If he hadn't saved his younger brother without telling his mother, if he hadn't protected this younger brother again and again, wouldn't he have to suffer the pain of losing his favorite today?
"Liuyun, in addition to the news that the guards of the East Palace have sent back the news that King Chengyang has survived, have they also sent back other news?" When he heard the news yesterday, Nangong Xun lost his temper, so he didn't listen carefully. After calming down at this moment, I remembered to ask carefully.
"Princess Chengyang was seriously injured and almost died, and finally took the medicine of the tiger and wolf, so that she was able to save her life!" This is what Mu Chenxue asked Baoru to declare to the outside world, in order to save the trouble of explaining. But this is also a fact, it's just that Nangong Shumo still thinks it's just an excuse, and he doesn't take it to heart.
"I don't even want my life, so how can I care if what I eat is poison. Nangong Shumo, how fortunate you are to have such a wife! Nangong Xun asked himself in his heart, "Second brother, are you too lucky?" ”
It's just that he doesn't need people to answer these questions. Early the next morning, the prince headed for the border with 2,000 elite soldiers. At the same time, the Chengyang Palace's palace also got the news, and Mu Chenfeng happily took the letter in his hand and kept reading it to his mother and grandmother.
"Okay, your sister's trip was not in vain, and she finally rescued King Chengyang. How is your sister? Aunt Cheng was holding Nangong Yi, the little prince who had not yet reached 100 days, in her arms, and she had already burst into tears. It's still the old lady who is old and can stabilize her mind.
"My sister didn't elaborate, she just said that everyone is okay, and she will return to Beijing in the near future!" Mu Chenxue writes letters, always only reporting good news and not bad news. So even if the old lady knew that there was something wrong with this letter, but she didn't see anyone, she didn't have much to say.
The prince's trip was to patrol the heavens, so it took a month to come to the border pass.
The king of Chengyang led a large army out of the border city ten miles away to greet him. The two brothers hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they naturally got closer, so they returned to the camp together.
Mu Chenxue has been raised for a month and a half, and she can barely walk on the ground, but she is still very weak, and she is only allowed to go to the ground when Nangong Shumo is there every day, and she can only lie on the bed at ordinary times, and read books to pass the time when she is bored.
Today, the prince came by order, and she originally wanted to go out in fancy clothes to welcome her, but she didn't bring a dress to the border, and secondly, with her body, Nangong Shumo couldn't allow her to get out of bed for too long, so she had to wait in the big tent of the Chinese army.
Seeing that Nangong Shumo and Nangong Xun had entered the big tent, she was busy helping her to salute the prince.
"Why do my younger siblings need to see each other like this, I heard that my younger siblings were seriously injured, I don't know if they are already fine?" Before seeing Mu Chenxue, Nangong Xun's heart was full of anger and resentment. But when I saw someone and saw her pale face, the hatred in my heart was blown away in an instant. There is only concern and heartache in the eyes.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Royal Highness the Prince, the courtiers are just not used to riding horses, so they hurt their bodies, but it doesn't matter!" Mu Chenxue still insisted on making a big salute, and then Baoru helped her up. The prince is a hunter on behalf of the sky, but he is not a brother, and she still has to do this ceremony anyway.
"The princess of Chengyang did not let her eyebrows, she was alone in danger, and rescued the king of Chengyang with 2,000 cavalry, which has long been rumored to be a good story in Beijing. When the younger siblings return to Beijing, the father will have a heavy reward! Seeing that Mu Chenxue insisted on saluting, the prince reacted, and now there are not only their families in the big tent, but also generals and other generals who defend the city. Hurriedly picked up his identity and said a few words.
"The courtiers are just for their own selfishness, ignoring the laws and military regulations, and forcibly going to the border city to find a husband, the emperor's punishment is already a blessing of heaven, and the courtiers dare not receive a reward for this!" Mu Chenxue never values these, she always wants her relatives to be well. And the emperor's reward, for her, is just a few more shackles, and she doesn't like it from the bottom of her heart.
Although Nangong Xun also knows Mu Chenxue very well. But now in front of so many people, he thought that Mu Chenxue was just humbling himself when he said this. also followed her words and said a few more words, and then ordered someone to announce the decree.
The king of Chengyang led the border guards to kneel to receive the holy decree, and after kneeling and bowing and thanking, everyone was able to get up. Arrange the wine and food, and catch the wind for the prince.
And Mu Chenxue went to the camp tent that had been prepared for her early in the morning to rest. "Princess, the guards of the East Palace still have to stay!"
There are dozens of guards from the East Palace by the princess's side, and when Baoru mentioned it, Mu Chenxue remembered, "According to what I said at the beginning, go to the prince and give them two hundred taels of silver each, and let them go back to the prince!" Your wife is very poor now! "Mu Chenxue's savings for so many years have been spent in just over this month, and now she still owes 2,000 people and 100,000 taels of silver. However, with her business talents, it will not take more than a year to repay these coins. (To be continued.) )
