It was not as anxious as when he was on the way back, and because on the way back, he was also escorted by the leader of the Beimu Iron Cavalry and the prefect of Cao, one was the leader of the enemy country, and the other was the witness of the second prince who did evil things, these two people must not make any mistakes, so Xiao Hao led the men and horses to the capital without hurrying.

When Xiao Hao and Hang Yidong rushed back, the capital was already boiling.

In the past few years, the northern herdsmen have been very rampant, not only the people on the border are afraid, but even the people in the capital are panicked, after all, the northern herdsmen more than ten years ago for Dayong's murderous acts, they still remember clearly.

So when they heard that Xiao Hao had repelled the Beimu Iron Cavalry and captured their leader alive, the people of the Dayong Dynasty were excited, and for a while, all the people were talking about the son of this general of Dingguo who had just been recovered.

When Xiao Hao and his party entered Beijing, the people of the capital were guarding both sides of the street, and when Xiao Hao rode a tall horse into the city gate, the people on the side began to cheer loudly.

"Is this Lord Xiao? Sure enough, it was heroic, no wonder it was able to defeat that group of barbarians. ”

"Who's to say it isn't? is worthy of being the son of the general of Dingguo, even if he didn't grow up by his side since he was a child, it is extraordinary, it is really a tiger father without a dog. ”

"This Mrs. Xiao is also very powerful, Lord Xiao is fighting the enemy in the front, Mrs. Xiao is supporting in the rear, and she has also researched food that can feed the people, isn't this a match made in heaven? I used to think that Mrs. Xiao, the daughter of a farmer, was not worthy of General Xiao, but now it seems that I am short-sighted. ”

"It's just that there is still a General Xiao Qin in the Mansion of the General of Dingguo, and this General Xiao Qin is also very powerful, and he has fought a lot of battles with the General of Dingguo? Who is the general of Dingguo wearing this feat? ”

"What's the analogy with this, this General Xiao is born to General Dingguo, no matter how powerful General Xiao Qin is, he was brought back, and General Dingguo must be the one who is related by blood."

"Okay, don't be foolish, General Xiao and his wife are killing the enemy at the border to protect us, what are you talking nonsense here. It's good to be welcome, this is not the place for you to talk first. ”

Then the chatter of some people was drowned out by the shouts of welcome.

Hang Yidong, who was sitting in the back sedan chair, heard the sound, opened the curtain and looked, she was a little surprised, she didn't expect so many people to welcome them, and then opened the sedan curtain and looked forward, but she didn't expect to see Xiao Hao turn his head to look at her.

Xiao Hao gave Hang Yidong a reassuring look, Hang Yidong smiled at Xiao Hao, and then lowered the curtain.

In the box of a teahouse, the three of them looked down from a high place, and they could see Xiao Hao, who was wearing a silver armor in the distance, slowly marching here, looking at Xiao Hao's resolute and mature face now, no longer the youthfulness before departure.

The prince looked at Xiao Hao and let out a sigh of admiration, and then jokingly looked at the man who was out of the dust opposite: "Yixuan, your brother-in-law is really not wrong." ”

I saw Hang Yixuan take a sip of tea lightly and said, "It's okay, it's all my sister's unique vision." Although it was not obvious on his face, when he mentioned his sister, Hang Yixuan's eyes were full of pride.

The prince was choked and didn't speak, Chen Liu looked at the two of them arguing, pursed his lips and smiled lightly, holding a folding fan, and suddenly asked: "Lord Xiao is back now, and he also brought a human witness, can these things he sent back a few days ago be usable?" That thing can get started, right? ”

The crown prince and Hang Yixuan turned their heads to look at Chen Liu at the same time, and Hang Yixuan took the lead in speaking: "That's natural, otherwise wouldn't it be a disappointment to my good brother-in-law's heart?" ”

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also returned to his usual gentle and jade-like appearance, seemingly harmless, but under the pure surface hidden endless darkness, the prince nodded lightly at the two, with the sharpness of an eagle in his eyes, as if he was about to dismantle and swallow the prey in the next second.

Then the three of them watched from the window as Xiao Hao's convoy of people slowly approached, and no one in the box spoke again, just quietly watching the people below cheering for Xiao Hao.

Different from the teahouse where Xiao Hao had to pass on his return journey was waiting for the second prince of Peace and his party in another box, when Xiao Hao came over, he saw at a glance the Cao prefect who was wearing prison clothes and was embarrassed by the soldiers.

The second prince slapped the teacup on the table fiercely, and even the hot tea splashed on the back of the second prince's hand, but there was no response, the second prince's face was gloomy, the green tendons on the corners of his forehead flared up, and the people standing on the side did not dare to make a sound.

It was Xiao Qin who opened his mouth first: "Your Highness, don't worry, even if the person is detained, the emperor will not ask for the crime so quickly, now that Xiao Hao has just returned to the house, the emperor must reward Xiao Hao first, and then punish him, taking advantage of this time, we still have a chance to operate." ”

The second prince took a deep breath, endured the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "If you don't clean things up for me, you know the consequences." ”

The second prince coldly sidestepped the people standing on the side, Xiao Qin, Lord Sun, and Master Su knelt down at the same time, and said respectfully: "The villain understands." ”

And the third prince, Ning Junqi, leaned on the fence on the side, looking at Xiao Hao who was passing by below, with an inexplicable expression.

Xiao Hao and Hang Yidong left for a few months, and as soon as Hang Yidong returned home, he was warmly treated by Hang's father and He, and He took his daughter's hand and walked into the hall.

Hang Yidong looked at this courtyard all the way, this house was bought in a hurry before leaving at that time, she didn't have time to take a closer look, on the way to the northwest, she was worried about what to do if the family was not used to living, and now looking at the small courtyard full of human feelings, Hang Yidong was already relieved.

Hang Yidong was pressed on a chair by He Shi to sit, Hang Yidong wanted to pour water, but He stopped his actions and personally poured a glass of water for Hang Yidong.

Hang Yidong took a sip of warm water, and before he could speak, He Shi asked first: "Dong'er, why did you come back alone?" What about the son-in-law? Why didn't you come back? Is something wrong? ”

"Mother, he's fine, husband, he captured the leader of the Beimu Iron Cavalry this time, and he will send these prisoners to the government for strict supervision before he can come back." Hang Yidong held He's hand and said comfortingly.

He patted the back of Hang Yidong's hand, and stroked his daughter's little face, his eyes were full of distress: "My mother doesn't want anything, my mother just wants you and your son-in-law to be good, you see, follow your son-in-law to the northwest to endure hardships, and your face is smaller." ”

"Mother, it's okay, I also encountered a lot of interesting things in the northwest this time, let me tell you."

The mother and daughter began to talk about what had happened to them in the hall.

After a while, Hang's father walked out with a bowl of dumplings and said to his daughter: "Dong'er, you are your mother's dumplings cooked early in the morning, I heard that you and your son-in-law are coming back in the next few days, she gets up early every day to make dumplings, saying that she wants you to eat the freshest, I asked her to wait for you to come back, she didn't stop, let me and your brother eat dumplings for several days, and didn't even let my father sleep well." ”

As soon as Father Hang finished speaking, He's face changed, and he said loudly to Father Hang: "What to sleep, my daughter and son-in-law fought so the border, and now that I finally came back, you only know sleep, sleep, sleep, what is there to sleep." ”

He crossed his waist and shouted at Hang's father menacingly, Hang's father only felt aggrieved in his heart, when I was still the head of Mayang Village, how dare this mother-in-law speak to him like this, since the daughter-in-law moved to the capital with his daughter, his mother-in-law is like a different person, every day he sees that he is not pleasing to the eye here and there, and he seized the opportunity to split his head and cover his face and say that he was beaten, since his son became an official, it was even more arrogant, and he was not angry, but his mother-in-law suffered a lot with him in the early years, and this came to the son and daughter. He is also willing to indulge her in his heart to make up for the hardships she has endured over the years.

Hang Yidong looked at He's count down Hang's father, although Hang's father had the heart to refute, but after the struggle in his eyes, he looked helpless and let him learn the situation, and suddenly laughed, it seems that in the days when she was not at home, the relationship between her parents was even better.

Hang Yidong took the steaming bowl in Hang's father's hand, looked at the white and tender dumplings in the bowl, and took a bite gently, well, it is stuffed with pork and cabbage, delicious, full of fresh and fragrant, and the ratio of meat and vegetables is just right.

Hang's father and He stopped arguing, watching his daughter eat dumplings, Hang Yidong was worthy of a bite, and He hurriedly asked: "How is it, Dong'er?" Is it tasty? ”

Hang Yidong looked at the expectant eyes of his parents, his heart moved, and he pretended to be serious: "Well, this dumpling ......"

Father Hang and He Shi looked at Hang Yidong's expression and unfinished words, and they chuckled in their hearts, a little worried: "How?" ”

Hang Yidong sneered and laughed: "It's delicious!" ”

He lightly tapped Hang Yidong's forehead and scolded with a smile: "You little girl, you will be a monster!" ”

Hang Yidong looked at Hang's father and He's family, and only felt that a burst of warmth was permeating his heart.

Then, Hang Yidong suddenly seemed to remember something, and asked, "By the way, Daddy, where is my brother?" Why don't you see him? ”

Hearing Hang Yidong mention Hang Yixuan, Hang's father and He's faces smiled even more: "Your brother, I was called out by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince early in the morning, and I haven't seen anyone until now, so I guess there is something to be busy in the court." ”

"Will my brother come back today?"

"Dong'er, don't worry, we have already told your brother that you and your son-in-law will come back today, he will definitely come back early, if he doesn't come back, we will teach him a lesson for you!"

As soon as the two of them finished speaking, they heard a familiar and warm voice from the door: "Let me see, who has been talking about me?" ”
