The dawn of autumn is quiet and refreshing.

Yesterday's drizzling autumn rain washed the streets of the capital exceptionally clean.

Most of the people in the capital have not yet gone out.

By this time, the rain had dried up on the streets, a breeze was blowing, and the yellowed leaves were scattered on the empty pavement. All of them were quiet.

The gates have not yet been opened. Located in the Fuhua Gate on the west side of the capital, I suddenly remembered a hurried knock on the door.

I saw that the officers and soldiers guarding the city went over to ask a few words, and hurriedly ordered everyone to open the city gate.

The gates were wide open, and a horse galloped past, and the fallen leaves on the ground rattled wherever they passed.

With the loud shouts of the people on horseback, the news of Mobei's victory quickly spread throughout the capital.

Jingyuan Marquis Mansion.

Lu Qingrong didn't get the news earlier than others.

When she heard the news, she couldn't believe it.

After a few days of worry, she was suddenly shocked to hear such great good news, which made her dare not speak lightly of joy.

It wasn't until Sun Yiming came to the door to report that her cabinet had begun to draft a notice to use to inform the world that she was convinced.

While being happy, Lu Qingrong still had some questions: "Last time, I said that I was missing, and I haven't heard from him for so long, how can I suddenly make such a big progress?" ”

"The exact process is not yet known." Sun Yiming told the truth, "But what is certain is that the prince led the Great Qi soldiers and horses to achieve a great victory. This is also the greatest victory on the Mobei battlefield in the past ten years. The Panmeng camp was completely destroyed, tens of thousands of soldiers were captured, and the property that had been looted from the territory of Daqi before, except for a part consumed during the war, was all returned and returned to the local people. ”

Lu Qingrong's heart pounded when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked, "What about the son?" Are you hurt? When will you be back? ”

"I haven't heard that the prince has been injured." Sun Yiming's eyes flickered slightly, and then said: "As for when the class teacher will return to the court, he still has to wait for the emperor's will." Now they are reorganizing their troops, including those prisoners of war, and they will also be properly disposed of, which will take some time. But after all, the smoke is gone, and you don't have to wait long to come! ”

"That Sato, isn't he going to make a comeback?" Lu Qingrong said worriedly.

"No way." Sun Yiming smiled easily, "Look at my memory, I forgot to say it!" Their coach Sato, was caught by the prince of the world, alive. When the time comes to return to Beijing to offer prisoners, the emperor's reward will inevitably be more generous. ”

Lu Qingrong breathed a long sigh of relief, and finally settled down.

She wasn't too interested in rewards and the like, and hoped that Jiang Xuan would come back safely as soon as possible.

For the rest of the day, she wanted to spend the rest of her life waiting, but she couldn't do it anyway.

First of all, the emperor decreed that the prince of Jingyuan should be fully responsible, take care of the handling of wounded soldiers and the resettlement of the people, and return to the dynasty as much as possible.

Although there is no reward for the time being, it has made Jiang Xuan's qiē even more eye-catching.

For a time, the Marquis of Jingyuan's Mansion became the hottest place in the capital.

From the day the good news arrived in the capital, people began to come to the door to congratulate them.

Lu Qingrong had already ordered to go down, and all those who came to congratulate him would not be seen. For congratulatory gifts that cannot be refused, it is necessary to prepare and return them with the same weight immediately.

Among the people, except for Jiang Yunpei, Cui Yan's wife Jiang Yunpei, who was in Mobei with Jiang Xuan, saw Lu Qingrong, and everyone else was blocked from the Yu Courtyard.

Lu Qianyu also wanted to come over. In the days when Jiang Xuan was gone, she came over several times to comfort Lu Qingrong, although most of what she said was wild and inconsequential, and even said something like "If the prince of Jingyuan really can't come back, you will come to the Yin Mansion to live with us, and I promise that you will not be wronged...... But Lu Qingrong was very moved in his heart.

But this time, when Lu Qianyu went to Di Mansion first and planned to call Lu Fangyu to come with her, she was scolded by Lu Fangyu and asked her not to make trouble for the fourth sister.

Lu Qianyu couldn't figure it out, it was obviously a happy event, but how did it become a mess.

But seeing that Lu Fangyu's expression was extremely strict, she had no choice but to give up.

Among the female guests who were blocked outside the Yu Courtyard, the most unenlightened was the second lady of the Chengping Hou Mansion.

After eating Lu Qingrong's closed door, she turned her head directly and went to Qinyi Courtyard, the purpose was also to say goodbye.

For Mrs. Wu, it would be good not to be angry when she heard the news of Mobei's victory.

I didn't expect to meet someone who didn't have long eyes to say hello.

Since the second lady of the Chengping Hou Mansion walked into the flower hall, the smirk on Mrs. Wu's face became extremely stiff.

The second lady was full of smiles, first praised the Marquis of Jingyuan for his pass, and then began to compliment Mrs. Wu at a greater length.

There's nothing new about it, it's just a cliché like that's teachable.

If these words were put in normal times, Mrs. Wu might be complacent because she had created a good reputation, but at this time, it sounded a little harsh.

After the second lady finally said goodbye, Mrs. Wu immediately changed back to a cold face.

"These days, there are a lot of people visiting Yuyuan?" Mrs. Wu asked suddenly.

"There are quite a few." Mother Lu was careful on the side and explained: "It's just that Mrs. Shizi didn't see it." ”

Mrs. Wu thought of her forbearance just now, and she was angry: "She has learned to put on a show!" ”

Lu's mother was silent.

Mrs. Wu let out a sneer in her nose, and then said, "Those who came to the door are also ignorant!" The days are still long, and he thinks that he has won the battle, so he has nothing to fear? As everyone knows, in the court, the battle outside is won, and the battle inside will only become more difficult. ”

Mother Lu obviously wouldn't refute her at such a time, and said: "How do those people understand so much, it's just that they think that the prince is young, and he has made such a great contribution, I'm afraid the future is limitless......"

"Hmph, the more this happens, the more dangerous it is." Mrs. Wu smiled a little from the bottom of her heart, "If you look at the current appearance of the Zhenbei General's Mansion, you will understand." Since Jiang Yuanzhao returned to Beijing from Mobei more than ten years ago, he has reined in a little late...... At the beginning, he didn't dare to use all his strength in Mrs. Jiang's affairs. More than ten years have passed, so what? It's not that the emperor has been separated from his heart, what is the difference between living a life and providing for the elderly? ”

Mother Lu was quite emotional in her heart, and nodded respectfully on her face.

Mrs. Wu pondered for a moment, and then said: "Find someone to prepare more firecrackers and other things, and when Jiang Xuan returns to Beijing, start putting them one or two hours in advance, don't stop." It's best to let everyone in the capital hear it! ”

Mother Lu was stunned for a moment, but after she understood, she said worriedly: "This is ...... If the emperor really eats his heart, will it be a trouble for our entire Hou Mansion? ”

"I have my own measure, not to mention that we have the support of the Queen Mother!" Mrs. Wu was very insistent, "You just have to arrange it." ”

Lu's mother remembered something again: "Now that Mrs. Shizi is presiding over the feed, she must be informed in advance of this matter, right?" ”

"Just send someone to Yuyuan." Mrs. Wu was very confident, "The Lu family is afraid that his heart has flown to the sky now, will this kind of celebration be opposed?" ”

Mrs. Wu expected that Lu Qingrong was only a teenager after all, and the recent news about Jiang Xuan had a lot of ups and downs, and now she must have been carried away by joy.

Lu's mother responded to this matter, and did not dare to ignore it, so she specially sent a competent housekeeper mother to Yuyuan for instructions.

The housekeeper's mother's husband's surname is Li, and the husband and wife have been jointly responsible for the purchase of most of the things in the Hou Mansion for many years, and they are extremely stable people.

After many admonitions from Lu's mother, she didn't dare to be sloppy.

At this time, Lu Qingrong was discussing with everyone about rearranging and cleaning the Yu Courtyard.

Therefore, when Mother Li came to ask for instructions, Mother Cao, Mother Ye and Luzhu were also in the hall.

Mother Li never forgot Mother Lu's advice, and never mentioned Mrs. Wu, only said that the soldiers in the capital who welcomed the triumphant return home all acted like this.

Lu Qingrong smiled lightly and said slowly: "I have been away for many years since I was a child, and I don't know much about many customs in the capital, so I don't know what else needs to be prepared besides this firecracker?" ”

Seeing that Mrs. Shizi was so modest, Mother Li was a little flattered, and hurriedly said: "There is nothing else!" ”

Mother Cao, who was next to her, immediately frowned when she heard this, and when she saw Lu Qingrong having such an attitude, she wanted to stop it.

Lu Qingrong stopped her with his eyes.

"If nothing else." Lu Qingrong smiled unabated, "As for the firecrackers, even if you go to buy them, it's not too much!" ”

Mother Li was overjoyed, and she couldn't help but feel proud in her heart, feeling that Mother Lu was a little blind and worried, how could Mrs. Shizi be so easy to speak, how could she disagree.

Lu Qingrong then added: "After you buy it back, just give it to Cao's mother directly." On that day, the people of Yuyuan will be in charge of putting it away. These days, the whole of the Yuyuan has been frightened with me, and when the prince triumphs, let them also celebrate! ”

Mother Li didn't have this preparation in her heart, but she thought that Mother Lu's instructions did not include who would set off the firecrackers, so she didn't say anything more, and directly responded respectfully, and arranged for someone to buy it with a happy face.

On the way back, the abacus in her heart crackled, pondering that Mrs. Shizi's sentence "not too much" would definitely make her a lot of money, and she completed Lu's mother's explanation, which was a double win.

On the side of Yuyuan, as soon as Mother Li went out, Mother Cao couldn't help but step forward and reminded: "Madam, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate to be so public, right?" ”

Lu Qingrong was quite pleased, first smiled at Cao's mother, and then looked at the direction of the door, and his voice became cold: "When they send the firecrackers, they will immediately throw them at the back warehouse and lock them!" On the day the prince returns home, if anyone dares to make the slightest movement, he will be kicked out immediately! ”R1152
