Chapter 361: The Prince Returns
Not far behind the two of them was an inconspicuous carriage, and Roman almost crushed her silver teeth when she heard their words.
At that time, if she knew that the real purpose of the princess summoning her and Yu Ziruo was to choose a concubine for the prince, how could she be like that......
Obviously she had half a chance!
Yu Ziruo's face appeared in her mind, Roman Jade stroked her delicate little face and pursed her lips, if she lost the opportunity, she may not be able to save it, Yu Ziruo's talent and family background are not as good as her, she doesn't believe that His Royal Highness will choose someone far inferior to her when he sees her.
She still has a chance!
At this time, the flags outside the city were flying, and the military was solemn.
After two years on the expedition, experiencing wars, and wandering between life and death, Duan Baiyu is still young, but he has completely grown into a calm man.
The three little ones who went with him also came back, and they didn't need too much credit to prove it, and now this is just right.
All of them are in armor, with a blood and fire battle intent that has not yet faded, and they are arrogant.
On the other side, Duan Ziyi and Xia Hanqiu personally led the male and female officials to greet each other, making enough scenes for his return and expressing their positions.
The drums sounded, and hundreds of officials knelt down to greet them.
Only Duan Baiyu, Duan Ziyi and Xia Hanqiu were standing.
Duan Baiyu's eyes fell on his aunt, and he hurriedly took a few steps closer and bowed down in front of his uncle and aunt, "Uncle Huang, aunt, nephew is back." ”
Both husband and wife were a little surprised, they didn't expect Bai Yu to make such a move.
It was the people kneeling behind him, and none of the hundred officials who dared to raise their eyes but peeked out of the corners of their eyes expected that their highness would do this, but this bow. But it reassured them.
They have been working under the hands of the prince and princess, and they have experienced so many things together, and their hearts are naturally biased, knowing that the prince does not have the heart to compete for the throne, but the fact that the prince does not have this mind does not mean that His Royal Highness will not be afraid, after all, the prince and the princess are too capable.
At the moment, at least His Royal Highness really has feelings for the prince and the princess on the surface, which leaves a lot of room for both sides, although there are still other possibilities, but this is already the best situation they can think of.
Duan Ziyi personally picked people up. I am very satisfied with the firm hand feeling under the hand. "I didn't disgrace myself."
It's not that he didn't embarrass the Duan family, it's not that he didn't embarrass his uncle, but he didn't embarrass himself, Duan Baiyu. Reveal a completely relaxed side in front of your loved ones. "That's what Uncle Huang taught well."
"It's really half the credit for scoring me." Duan Ziyi said unceremoniously. The smile in his eyes betrayed him He was really happy at this time, except for this nephew, the Duan family was all dead. If the nephew is not angry, he will not be sad, let alone sad for him, at best, he will be angry with him.
But when this nephew really came out, he couldn't help but be happy for him, and a sense of pride worthy of his nephew rose in his heart.
Xia Hanqiu chuckled and took the words, "Your imperial uncle is happy, he is happier than anyone else when you have a chance, well, you have grown taller and darker, it seems that you have suffered a lot." ”
Looking at his aunt, Duan Baiyu's eyes softened, "At first, I felt bitter, but then I didn't even have time to feel bitter, there were too many things to think about every day, and I had to follow the drills, so as not to lose my life on the battlefield, and when I got used to it, I only thought about winning the battle, and I couldn't feel anything else." ”
"People are forced out, it's good to come back, and I can have less snacks." Xia Hanqiu glanced at the three people standing behind Bai Yu, suppressed the other words, and pulled the person behind him and said, "Do you know who this is?" ”
Yu Ziruo didn't expect the princess to come in front of so many people, she could come because there were so many female adults coming, and it was not abrupt for her to be mixed in, but it was not the case at all to bring her out alone.
Her face was so red that she could drip blood, but this year's exercise had supported her spine, even if she was shy, she didn't take half a step back, and her face was even raised, although she didn't dare to look at each other.
If the aunt didn't ask, Duan Baiyu naturally wouldn't know who it was, but because of this temperament, he would also look at it twice, probably because he had been following his aunt for a long time, and his words and deeds would inevitably be a little similar, for him, the aunt was definitely different from the existence of others, and he would be a little more attentive to this.
Bowing his head and smiling, Duan Baiyu took out something from his arms and told everyone with the facts, this daughter-in-law, he recognized it, "Occasionally, I will go hunting with a few generals in the army, once I met a pack of wolves, it took a lot of effort to connect them to the nest, this is a wolf's teeth, I have personally grinded it, this hole is also what I want to drill, make it into a pendant and send it to you, you have to accept it if you like it or not." ”
Yu Ziruo instantly understood what His Highness meant, and his voice became louder under the agitation of his heart, "His Highness is to give Ziruo a piece of grass, and Ziruo will be a treasure." ”
Duan Baiyu smiled happily, and was even happier when he saw his aunt breathing a sigh of relief and smiling, even if this wife was decided after he nodded, the aunt was still worried that he would not like it, compared to those fathers and mothers who only focused on interests, the aunt did better, because the aunt cared more about his feelings.
Yu Ziruo was born in such a family, if she hadn't been encouraged by her aunt to give her guidance, she would not have taken the initiative to write to him, and between the lines, she didn't regard him as a son of the heavenly family, but simply just her husband, and what she said was not about power or profit, not about how capable her family was, but just about some trivial things, and later learned that he was close to her uncle and aunt, and from time to time he would write some interesting things in the letter when the imperial uncle and aunt got along, and every time he was very tired, he would turn the letter out and take a look.
He also fantasized that there was a smart woman beside him who could warm him up and give him a home.
Yes, he wants a home, like the emperor's uncle and aunt, no matter where they are, as long as the two of them are there, it will be as warm as home.
It used to be an extravagant hope, but now, he sees hope.
His aunt taught him a woman who was very much in line with his heart.
Duan Ziyi coughed lightly and reminded, "Okay, it's time to go back." ”
Duan Baiyu came back to his senses, only to find that the girl opposite was too ashamed to lower her head, and the smile in her aunt's eyes was about to overflow, and the few behind her ...... Don't think he can't hear them snickering.
"Ahem, all of you, please."
Although the completely forgotten officials have knee pain, but after such an episode, they are close to His Royal Highness the prince, and he is still a young man who can distract the girl, I heard that His Royal Highness does not even have a room around him, and the princess is really strict in this regard.
"You have worked hard in the past two years, this palace is not familiar with government affairs, and I will forget that you will redouble your efforts in the future and work together for my beam."
is very modest, but there are several layers of meaning, no matter how sincere the words are, all the officials are happy to respond.
Duan Baiyu suddenly laughed, "At this time, I should have said that I would have gone back to the palace, but there is no palace in the pavilion, so there is only one yamen, and the palace can only be said to go back to the yamen." ”
The atmosphere suddenly became better, the guard of honor opened the way in front, Duan Ziyi and Xia Hanqiu got on the chariot first, followed by the hundred officials, and then Duan Baiyu led the meritorious soldiers into the city.
"It's coming, it's coming!"
"I see the princess! Ah, the princess seems to be looking at me! ”
"Dream on you, how can the princess look at you, but the princess is so good-looking."
"If you don't look good, can you be a princess? The prince is so handsome, if the princess is not good-looking, can she be worthy? ”
“……”
Occasionally, the conversation caught her ears, causing Xia Hanqiu to laugh, she did glance over there just now, but it was not a person, but a person who poked out of the carriage behind them.
There was a burst of cheers from behind, accompanied by the sound of His Royal Highness Chitose Chitose Chitose, Xia Hanqiu said: "If Bai Yu is on the throne, is it customary to invite a banquet to a hundred officials?" ”
"To be precise, it is a banquet for nobles, the previous ministers of the Liang State were all from noble backgrounds, and the difference is only between big nobles and small nobles, how?"
"Some people are probably not reconciled and will take advantage of this opportunity to make trouble."
Duan Ziyi didn't ask who this person was, but said, "Are you worried that Bai Yu will be confused by beauty?" ”
"It's a little, he is still too young after all, at this age, it is the time when he is most longing for love, if someone deliberately does something strange under the banner of love, maybe it can really be done."
"It may be possible for others, but in front of Duan Baiyu, those things are just covered with a beautiful veil, how dirty and dirty it is behind that veil He has seen it since he was a child, and he will only be more disgusted with those people, but the ones you taught Ziruo will be very much in line with him."
Listening to the cheers behind, Duan Ziyi sighed, "The palace is the darkest place in the world, even if you will become that kind of person, you also want the person next to your pillow to be clean, Bai Yu has been deeply affected by it, if someone really approaches him with such an idea, I want to see if the other party can bear his anger." ”
Xia Hanqiu frowned, thinking about whether he was going to do something, and then thought about it, it's okay, Bai Yu doesn't give him an idea, it's reasonable, now that he is back, if he still interferes in everything, no matter how deep his feelings are, there will be cracks, not to mention that their current relationship is not good, if they really care about people, they can also start on other things.
"Don't worry about him so much, if a beauty can't pass the pass, the hardships he suffered in the palace will be in vain, let him learn a lesson."
Isn't she just used to worrying about it? always wants to let the juniors suffer less and take fewer detours, forgetting that they are not a few years older than them.
"I will pay attention to Bai Yu's affairs in the future, and if I can not interfere, I will not interfere, lest he think too much, but I have to worry about Nian'an's affairs, my mother also told me last night that Nian'an's family affairs are going to be decided, and the second cousin is finally back, how can the eldest aunt let him go, he is in his twenties, and it is time to settle down."
Duan Ziyi looked at her sad face and smiled and quipped, "Those who can work harder." ”
The intimate gesture of the two fell into the eyes of the people, and the rumors that the prince and princess were very affectionate were confirmed. (To be continued......)
