In Luoyang, the autumn red leaves are drifting, and I don't know where to go. However, pedestrians are either leisurely or hurried, just working hard for a better day.

In the palace, Thirteen Niang received a letter from Sun Nian, and immediately got carried away with joy, and wanted to go out of the city to wait for her lover to return.

"Son, your father is coming back! Happy not? ”

However, Sun Qi, who has not yet been able to speak, is still a little ballooner, how can he answer her words?

In order to welcome Sun Nian and the ministers back, Thirteen Niang immediately notified the imperial dining room to prepare for tonight's banquet for Sun Nian and all the soldiers!

Not to mention the joy in the palace, just to say that Mrs. Zhen's family is in a very low atmosphere. Zhen Taichang and Zhen Ji have always been worried, and they have always been worried that the Zhen family side branch in their hometown will cause a big disaster. They want to wipe their butts for their hometown, and what they are most afraid of is that His Majesty will be angry and give Zhen Taichang's official position to the end, which is what they are most afraid of.

"Daddy, have you received the news that Zhen Yu has committed suicide?"

"yes." Mrs. Zhen let out a long sigh, looked at her more and more sensible son, and said, "Ji'er, do you know who he went to Huangquan with?" ”

Zhen Ji frowned, knowing that what he heard next might be something that shook the court, and sure enough, Zhen Taichang said: "He killed his wife, and then committed suicide." And his wife is the princess of the Qiang Kingdom. ”

"What?" Zhen Ji got up suddenly, "Isn't he married to an ordinary woman?" "Why did his wife become the princess of the Qiang Kingdom?

"The princess concealed her identity, pretended to be a civilian woman, and married Zhen Yu."

"How can Zhen Yu and He De ......" Zhen Ji was very unconvinced, he felt that he was much better than Zhen Yujun, why didn't he see any father-in-law marrying him?

Zhen Taichang is also melancholy, "She is interested in us behind the Zhen family." ”

"We?" Zhen Ji wondered, for a while, his eyes suddenly widened, "Could it be that you want to do something amazing through what we want to do?" Otherwise, he really couldn't think of what those Qiang remnants would endure humiliation and burden to that extent. And Daddy, as Taichangqing, according to the old Han Dynasty, is the head of the three princes and the nine kings! That's a lot of power! Thinking of this, his mind was easy, "Their purpose is to turn against our Great Qi?" Whether it succeeds or not, our Zhen family is a stepping stone for their Qiang country to recover! ”

"I can't say." The stakes are so big, how can you ignore the family and go straight to suspicion? Whether it is good or bad, after His Majesty returns, it is up to him to decide. Mrs. Zhen was often restless, and she didn't want to talk to Zhen Jiduo anymore, so she put her hands behind her back, leaned on her back, and left. Leaving Zhen Ji to sit there, his heart burning and thinking.

In the end, I couldn't hold it anymore, but I got up and went out. He couldn't sit still. He is going out of the city to wait for His Majesty's return, and this morning to find out His Majesty's mood.

The winter wind is approaching, and the clothes are difficult to withstand the cold. The dome is dim, as if the mood is trembling, heavy and dying, and the light cannot be dispersed for thousands of miles.

"Childe, where are you going?" The elder led the horse, bowed his head and asked anxiously.

Zhen Ji was silent at first, only silently took the reins, turned over the horse in a dashing manner, and saw that the chief was about to cry, before he smiled jokingly, "Don't worry, don't go to the West City Gate, wait for Your Majesty to return, and greet his old man." ”

After listening to it for a long time, instead of being relaxed, my heart became more worried. After all, His Majesty doesn't like his son-in-law. Seeing that Zhen Ji rode his horse and almost disappeared into the corner of the street, he gritted his teeth and told another chief follower about the matter, asking him to inform Taichang of the matter, and then also chased Zhen Ji across the horse.

Zhen Taichang learned that Zhen Ji was going to wait for Sun Nian, but he just answered and didn't make much arrangements. It's like going with the flow. At this moment, there are still an hour or two before His Majesty enters Luoyang. As too often, he will wait for a while, but he really wants to go out of the city with other ministers to welcome His Majesty victorious.

Isn't? A person who provoked Sun Nian's dislike dared to appear in front of him on his own, but he wanted to be beaten?

All of this is just speculation on the part of the Zhen family. Sun Nian, as the king of a country, is full of soldiers with strong martial arts, how can ordinary people get close to him?

Fortunately, Sun Nian and Zhen Ji are still "sensitive", and through the vast onlookers, they really saw Zhen Ji in the crowd.

raised his eyebrows and looked at the people around him, but he was not curious at all why Zhen Ji was hidden in the crowd.

The people waited for nearly two hours, from dawn to three poles above the sun, and one can imagine how excited they were to see His Majesty at this time.

Everyone shouted for His Majesty's blessings, and bursts of blessings made Sun Nian proud and happy, "All the Qing families, as well as the widowed people, all stand up." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Then he stared straight at the little prince holding him who was standing at the front of the greeting procession, and then approached, and said gently: "The queen has worked hard. Come, the widow comes, and holds our son. ”

"Good. Listen to Your Majesty. Ever since Sun Nian spoke, Thirteen Niang's eyes were glued to him, making him so unhappy, and he reached out to support her shoulder, "Queen, you've lost weight." I'm back, you can take our Qi'er with peace of mind, everything is with me. ”

Thirteen Niang looked up at those eyes full of tenderness, her face was like a spring flower blooming, and all kinds of words of trust finally turned into one word: "Good." ”

The two stood side by side, showing the people of Luoyang the harmony between the emperor and the queen, which was the blessing of the community. For a time, among the people of Luoyang, most of the women got along with the emperor and queen to teach their husbands at home. Without Sun Nian's knowledge, he was secretly scolded by those flowery men.

In the eyes of those men, it was a great loss for their majesty to guard only one queen. If they are kings, they should set up a harem of 3,000 beauties and enjoy all the blessings of the world! But now they are spoiled a lot, and a few beautiful concubines will be scolded and despised by the tigress at home. It's really bitter and tearful.

The ministers and generals followed the generals into the palace, while those ordinary soldiers entered the Luoyang camp to celebrate, and the wine, food and rice were enough. Moreover, among them, those who made meritorious contributions in this fight against strong enemies in the West were also rewarded for their meritorious deeds, and those who failed to enter the palace were sealed by the inner servants holding the edict.

In general, the palace was full of joy. But there are still some people who don't know how to eat and laugh. For example, Zhen Taichang.

As a veteran, he is even more afraid that he will be suddenly left out of the high platform from today, and he will have nothing to do with the honor of this high-ranking official from now on. He was waiting for His Majesty's final verdict on his Zhen family.

However, what he waited and waited for was not waiting for His Majesty's thunderous wrath. Why is that? Until he returned to the mansion safe and sound, it was still unknown.

When Zhen Ji saw Zhen Taichang walk in, he was overjoyed. All he knew was that His Majesty didn't anger them.

Is that really the case? When they learned that Taihang had made Yuan Yu injured and needed a divine doctor to heal him, they were really even more worried.

However, none of this is something that Sun Nian will take into account. rushed back thousands of miles, and he had three main things, one was to ask Zhang Lao to heal Yuan Yu as soon as possible, and many capable people would do things for him as soon as possible; the second is to check the drought and harvest in Quyang, and discuss with Cui Ze the disaster relief grain to be prepared when the green and yellow crops are not harvested next year; Third, it is necessary to study the grain taken from the Western Imperial Wengula, clarify the conditions for its cultivation, and increase the grain yield for the common people. Therefore, the matter of the Zhen family is actually not very important, as long as he waits until Yuan Yu recovers, remembers the black-clothed leader, and combines what he has found, everything will be solved.

What Sun Nian thinks, the Zhen family doesn't know. Therefore, after reforming the evil and returning to the right, Zhen Ji was too concerned about the future of the Zhen family, and he was stunned that Mrs. Zhen often wanted to meet Sun Nian.

"He wants to see me? What is the Word? "It's mainly because I saw him, Zhen Ji can't do anything, right?

In fact, where did Sun Nian know, because he always did not clearly inform Zhen Taichang's attitude towards the Zhen family in Luoyang, so that Zhen Taichang was too worried and fell ill, Zhen Ji was anxious, so he had to bite the bullet and ask Sun Nian to see him, so as to know Sun Nian's attitude.

After thinking about it, Sun Nian, who intended to rectify Zhen Ji to let out his depression, immediately sent someone to say to Zhen Ji: "Your Majesty has an order, if Zhen Ji wants to see His Majesty, please receive ten strokes of the stick first." ”

"Good! I should! ”

At present, the palace is full of people who watch good shows. This good drama quickly reached Zhen Taichang's ears, but he missed the last two words, and mistakenly thought that Sun Nian was going to beat Zhen Ji with dozens of sticks, and he immediately fainted with fright. The Zhen family was in turmoil for a while.

The folk doctor didn't dare to treat Zhen Taichang, so the Zhen family had to ask Sun Nian to come to the imperial doctor!

"Your Majesty! Zhen Taichang his old man fell ill and was unconscious! ”

The waiter shouted, but Sun Nian and Zhen Ji were scared.
