/p> Outside the city of Kunming, hundreds of people were blocked on both sides of the avenue by the stubborn sergeants, and the cheers of the crowd were endless. *With* Dream *Small* said .lā The city was "crackling" and there were firecrackers.

Civil and military officials in various official robes stood outside the city gate, waiting to welcome the Han king's chariot.

Zhu Gaoxu sat in the carriage and didn't get down, and at this time he had heard all kinds of voices singing praises outside, such as the power of thunder and power, and martial arts to go down in history, and so on.

But he sat in the carriage and did not come out to see the people.

Hundreds of honor guards of the King of Han rushed to the palace in front of tens of thousands of guards. Zhu Gaoxu ordered the guards to command Wang Bin, Wei Da, and Liu Ying to disband their armies, and then he rode into the palace from Duanli Gate in a carriage.

Zhu Gaoxu got off the carriage in front of the carrier hall, looked left and right, glanced at Ma Peng, who had just turned over and dismounted, and said to the eunuch Wang Gui who came to greet him: "Wang Gui, you take General Ma to the study of the carrier hall first, and then come to the front palace to meet me." ”

Wang Gui bowed and said, "The slave and maid obey the order." ”

Zhu Gaoxu said, got into a yellow car next to him, and went to the harem.

Walking to the door of the carrier, he saw Guo Wei dressed in Xuan-colored Zhai clothes, who was waiting there with a group of women and eunuchs to greet him.

"The concubine congratulates the prince on quelling the rebellion in Yuezhou in one fell swoop, and welcomes the prince to return home victoriously." Guo Wei said.

Everyone bent their knees together and said, "Congratulations to the prince!" ”

Zhu Gaoxu stepped down from the car and stepped forward to help Guo Wei, "No courtesy." This has worried Vier. ”

Guo Wei raised her head to look at Zhu Gaoxu, and said softly: "The prince is so powerful, many days ago, I heard people praising the prince." ”

Zhu Gaoxu remembered that he had done a lot of disgraceful things in Yuezhou, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

But he thought about it again, he couldn't help it, if he wanted to be entangled in black and white, I was afraid that he wouldn't be able to find out this matter for a few years! Zhu Gaoxu knew very well in his heart that only by resolving the Yuezhou issue in such a way could he quickly establish prestige in Yunnan.

The group gradually walked to the front palace, and Zhu Gaoxu retreated left and right, and talked to Guo Wei alone for a while. Under Guo Wei's service, he changed out of his military uniform and put on an ordinary purple round-necked robe. It didn't take long for Wang Gui to come to the gate of the palace. He bowed in, bowed to Zhu Gaoxu and Guo Wei, and said, "Lord, the slave and maid have taken people to the study of the front hall according to your instructions. ”

"Okay." Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said to Guo Wei, "I'm going to take Yao Ji out now for some official business." The person I care about the most in my heart is still Wei'er, and the person I want to see the most when I come back is also you, Wei'er, don't be careful? ”

Guo Wei's eyes were lowered, and she seemed to be a little sour, but she said, "The concubine doesn't dare to be careful." The prince can say this and have such a heart, and the concubine is very pleased. Only the prince would say these words......"

Zhu Gaoxu gently held Guo Wei's slender hand. After a while, he turned his head and said, "Wang Gui, you call Chen Dazhui, Zhao Ping, and Ma Peng to escort them, prepare the carriage first, and then ask Yao Ji to go out with me." ”

Wang Gui said: "Obey." ”

…… Inside and outside the palace, the whole city of Kunming, at this time more lively than usual, the government's deliberate promotion of victory, increased the festive atmosphere of the city.

On the contrary, Zhu Gaoxu did not show ecstasy, he and Guo Wei stayed in the quiet palace, talking to Guo Wei while thinking about something. After pacifying Yuezhou, it seems that the matter will not be over.

Guo Wei was young, but she seemed to be able to detect other people's joys and angers, so she asked cautiously: "The prince looked very happy before he set out on the expedition, why did he have a lot of worries when he won?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu glanced at her, afraid that Guo Wei would accidentally leak secrets. He pondered for a moment and said, "One thing is like a cocoon, it looks very simple, but a silkworm uses a lot of filaments to weave it......"

Guo Wei tilted her head, looked thoughtful, shook her head lightly and said, "I think the prince sometimes speaks so hard. ”

Zhu Gaoxu sighed and said, "I'm afraid that Wei'er will leak her mouth." ”

Guo Wei suddenly pursed her lips, but did not defend.

At this moment, Wang Gui came back and forth. After Zhu Gaoxu said goodbye to Guo Wei, he walked out of the dormitory with Wang Gui and went straight to the carrier door.

There were six people in the carriage, Wang Gui was in front of the car, and Zhu Gaoxu and Yao Ji were sitting in the carriage. Yao Ji's face flushed slightly, and her gaze brushed over Zhu Gaoxu's face from time to time.

Zhu Gaoxu lifted the curtain and looked at Ma Peng, a middle-aged man riding a horse outside; But Yao Ji didn't pay attention to him. With a "clang", the two wheels of the carriage pressed past a threshold, and the carriage drove straight through a door, and then slowly stopped.

Zhu Gaoxu got out of the car first, and then helped Yao Ji out of the carriage with his own hands, and specially put a hand on her head. Ma Pengzheng next to him was staring, he had done a hundred households in brocade clothes and obviously understood the etiquette of the prince, so he should be very curious about Zhu Gaoxu's behavior; A moment later, he observed Yao Ji again.

Yao Ji only frowned and glanced at Ma Peng, but didn't care.

Wang Guidao: "A few days ago, the slave maid got the word from Zhao Baihu and picked a place to buy it, which is this building." Not long ago, this was a restaurant, and the slaves and maids had dismissed the people inside. There was a two-story attic outside, and we went straight to the back yard. ”

Zhu Gaoxu looked back left and right, and sure enough, he felt that the huge courtyard seemed empty.

He turned around and said, "Chen Dazhui, Zhao Ping, you go to the attic in front." ”

The two generals clasped their fists and said: "The last general will wait for the order!" ”

Zhu Gaoxu looked at Wang Gui again and said, "You go outside the door over there and wait first." ”

Wang Gui also bent down and said, "Yes." ”

"Please, both." Zhu Gaoxu glanced at Ma Peng and Yao Ji, and walked towards the west wing.

At this moment, Yao Ji began to look at Ma Peng in surprise, because this matter was a bit strange...... Ma Peng, a general, how could he come with him?

As soon as the three of them entered the wing, Ma Peng couldn't wait to speak: "Are you Yao Ji?" ”

"Huh?" Yao Ji suddenly covered her mouth, and her big eyes full of surprise widened.

Zhu Gaoxu said indifferently: "I said that I would help find your father. He's right in front of you. ”

Yao Ji was stunned at this time, and her whole person seemed to be stiff. She took two steps back, and suddenly her body went limp, and the person squatted down. Zhu Gaoxu hurriedly stretched out his hand to support her, and saw that her face was full of tears, which were flowing down her cheeks. It was only then that she finally let out a burst of sobbing.

Ma Peng also stretched out his hand and looked at Yao Ji in a daze.

Yao Ji covered her mouth and stared at Ma Peng with a complicated expression, she held back her crying, nodded her head vigorously, and said in a trembling voice: "Are you really my father?" ”
