Chapter 688: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince [Supplement 1]
"The little prince is back, the little prince has pacified the Yandi rebels and returned!"
"Really, the little prince is really back?"
"Great, Yandi is finally too peaceful!"
"Come and see, the little prince is back!"
In the early morning, as the last trace of chill was dispelled by the sun, a piece of news spread like the wind throughout Jinyang City, breaking the still quiet atmosphere in the city in an instant. Everyone was excited, put down their work one after another, rushed out of the door, and rushed towards the avenue leading to the palace from the north gate of Jinyang City.
The people of Jinyang City will not forget that Jinyang was besieged by the 100,000 troops of the Zhou army, and the city was broken immediately. They will never forget that the white-clothed god of war who danced in the flames, single-handedly, killed Emperor Zhou and returned defeated.
For the people of Jinyang, happiness is not only their benefactor, but also their idol.
In a short time, both sides of the road from the north gate to the front of the palace were surrounded by the people who came, and even extended several miles outside the city gate.
"I don't know if the little prince will recruit soldiers this time, I really want to go into battle with him to kill the enemy!"
"You're not afraid of death, are you?"
"Sooner or later, people will die, it is better to die as they deserve! The little prince treats the soldiers very well, if I die in battle, I can not only become a hero of the country, but also find a way to live for my blind old lady! ”
"Yes, follow the little prince, win undefeated, establish meritorious deeds, seek a wealth and wealth, and also glorify the lintel!"
"It is said that the little prince is so handsome that women all over the world are ashamed of themselves, I haven't seen it yet, and I have to take a good look at what I say this time!"
"The little prince is both civil and military, powerful in the world, and so handsome, if I can marry him, even if I die immediately, I am willing!"
"I'm not ashamed, and I don't look at what I look like! The little prince will be the emperor in the future, which woman beside him is not as good as a fairy, and you are also worthy of being close to the little prince? I advise you not to humiliate yourself! ”
"Shut up! Don't tell me you're not thinking like I do! ”
"I don't expect the little prince to favor me, even if I can be a maid by his side, I will be satisfied to see him every day!"
There was a lot of talk in the crowd, but there was only one topic, and that was happiness. Men want to follow Happy to make a career and become famous, while women fantasize about being able to be close to Happy and be the happiest woman in the world.
If a person's height reaches the point of being looked up to, others will admire and revere him more, and will rarely be jealous.
"Here, the little prince is here!"
I don't know who shouted, everyone looked towards the north, and saw that thousands of knights were rushing towards Jinyang City at the first line of heaven and earth. got closer, and everyone finally saw the emblem on the banner waving in the wind, but it was not the little prince who was happy. The crowd was silent at first, and then erupted in earth-shattering cheers.
"Little prince! Little Prince! ”
In the cheers of the mountains and tsunamis, the group of knights finally stepped on the morning sun and came to the outside of Jinyang City.
One of the first generals was upright, with silver helmets and silver armor, shining in the morning sun, and behind him was a moon-white coat, sitting on a tall and mighty sweaty horse, which was even more powerful. It's just a little strange that his face is covered with a silver mask, covering most of his face except for his mouth and chin, and in the sun, the mask blooms with a cold luster, adding a bit of coldness and nobility to his whole person.
With a slight jump, the silver-armored general fell to the ground, his movements were neat and light, and even those who didn't know martial arts couldn't help but applaud. Holding the hilt of the sword at his waist with his left hand, the Silver Armor General's gaze slowly swept over the jubilant crowd on the side of the road, exhaling and exhaling, and shouted in a lengthened voice.
"Folks, I'm glad I'm back!" His voice was clear, but it lacked a bit of a strong breath.
"See the little prince!"
Everyone paid their respects, and their faces were full of sincere and respectful smiles.
"Folks, thank you for coming to greet me, happy to remember the five feelings! Rise up, all of you! ”
"Thank you, little prince!"
"Folks, the emperor is already waiting in the palace, happy to go!" Throwing his hands around, the silver-armored general turned on his horse, turned his horse's head and walked slowly towards the city.
"Little prince, the rebels have been wiped out, is Yandi too peaceful?"
"Little Wangye, why are you wearing a mask? What's wrong with your face? ”
"Little prince, are the Turks coming to invade my borders?"
"Little prince, the little one wants to go into battle with you to kill the enemy!"
"Little Prince......"
Everyone's gossip and inquiry, where can the silver armor general hear clearly, but he is not the slightest impatient, the corners of his mouth have been smiling, his right hand is constantly waving, and his clear eyes are gently and slowly gliding through the crowd, giving these simple people sincere greetings.
When the Silver Armor General arrived at the gate of the palace, it was already half an hour later, looking at the crowd that still did not want to disperse, his left hand holding the hilt of the sword couldn't help but slowly tighten, and there were ripples in his eyes. Looking at the majestic and solemn palace, he took a deep breath, and his eyes became more and more determined.
After handing over the general order and obtaining permission, the Silver Armor General was led by the palace guards to the Jinluan Palace.
"Happy to see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live!"
"Xing'er, you're finally back!" Gao Changgong on the dragon chair stood up in surprise, walked a few steps, stretched out his hand from afar, made a false gesture, and said with a smile: "Get up, come to me, let me take a good look at you!" ”
"Emperor Xie!"
Thanking him and getting up, the Silver Armor General stepped forward, his steps were steady and powerful, especially the vigorous and heroic spirit on his body made the civil and military officials standing in the palace nod secretly, but they were very curious about the mask on the Silver Armor General's face.
When Gao Changgong was young, because of his handsome appearance, he was worried about the lack of some majesty, so that he could cover his face with a hideous grimace mask to achieve the purpose of deterring the enemy.
"Xing'er, why are you still wearing a mask?" Gao Changgong looked at the Silver Armor General with some strange eyes.
The silver armor general replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen was accidentally struck in the face during the suppression of the rebellion, and his skin was broken, so he was afraid to frighten others, so he covered it with a mask. ”
"Is that so?" Gao Changgong exclaimed in surprise, paused, and then said with concern and heartache: "Xing'er, take off the mask and let my father see how much you have suffered!" ”
"Yes!"
The Silver Armor General agreed, and gently took off the silver mask on his face, revealing a pale face.
When they saw his face, Gao Changgong and the people in the hall couldn't help but gasp, and their faces changed slightly. Sure enough, as the silver-armored general said, a knife mark actually cut from the corner of his left eye to his ear, and the healed wound was like a blood-red snake, entangled on his face, hideous and terrifying, destroying his originally handsome face.
Without waiting for everyone to look carefully, the Silver Armor General put the mask on his face again, and everyone was inexplicably relieved.
The silver-armored general said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this little injury of Weichen is nothing compared to those soldiers who sacrificed for the country, you don't have to worry." ”
"I'm sorry for you, kid!" Taking a deep breath, he suppressed some of the grief and sorrow in his heart, and swept the people in the hall majestically, and then slowly spoke: "Zhong Aiqing, happy is my only son, over the years in my Daqi and repeatedly made military exploits, deeply loved by the people, so I decided to be happy as my Daqi prince, I don't know what you think?" ”
Everyone first glanced at each other, Tang Yong came out of the crowd, and said loudly: "The name of the little prince's benevolence is known all over the world, Wen Taowu is outstanding, as the eldest son of the emperor, the position of the prince, the little prince deserves it, this is the desire of the people!" ”
The other officials all said respectfully: "The ministers seconded the proposal!" ”
"Good!" Gao Changgong's eyes burst with essence, and he shouted: "I'm happy to hear it!" ”
"Wechen is here!" The Silver Armor General immediately fell to the ground, looking at Gao Changgong's eyes with a somewhat complicated look, including excitement, joy, worry and sentimentality.
"Happy, from today onwards you are my prince of Daqi, but you can't be arrogant and arrogant, bullying the weak, you need to always remember self-cultivation, lead by example, be diligent and love the people, can you write it down?" Gao Changgong's voice was full of majesty and solemnity, and it also conveyed his deep concern for his only son.
"I am happy to respect the emperor's teachings, and I will be conscientious and conscientious, live up to the emperor's trust, and live up to the people of the world!" The silver armor general said righteously, the words were sonorous, firm and powerful.
"Ministers and others see His Royal Highness the Prince, may the prince be blessed with longevity and health, may the Great Qi country be extended, and longevity is boundless!"
……
When the court meeting was over, the silver armor general did not stay in the palace, but led hundreds of knights back to the palace.
Zhang Rong, Zhang Lihua, Lu Hanyue, and Wu Shun have also gotten the news a long time ago, leading the miscellaneous servants of the family in the palace, and hundreds of people are looking forward to it in front of the palace.
Now she is pregnant, her body is quite bloated, but her skin is more moisturized, and the corners of her eyebrows and eyes are full of maternal brilliance, which is more pleasing to the eye than it used to be. Zhang Rong and Zhang Lihua, who were supporting her beside her, also had red circles under their eyes, but only Lu Hanyue, who had always been a little cold and arrogant, could still stay calm.
Looking at the person who was getting closer and closer, Lu Hanyue couldn't help frowning slightly, and muttered to herself: Why is this person's breath familiar to me, but I feel that he is not a husband?
"Madame, I'm back!"
As soon as the silver-armored general spoke, the women heard something strange. Although his voice was very similar to that of the person in his heart, they still knew the subtle differences in it. Zhang Lihua's eyes widened, and she was about to speak, but Zhang Rong stepped forward smartly, and said with a smile: "Husband, you are finally back, you have worked hard along the way, please go into the house with your concubine to rest!" ”
"Rong'er has worked hard!" The silver armor general gently shook Zhang Rong's hand, glanced at her, and then stepped forward, gently held Wu Shun's arm, and said in a harmonious voice: "Shun'er, you are pregnant, you can't be tired, come, let's go into the house!" ”
As he spoke, the silver-armored general smiled at Lu Hanyue and Zhang Lihua, and carried her into the mansion while Wu Shun was still in a trance.
"Sure enough, it's her!" Lu Hanyue smiled suddenly, and then dragged Zhang Lihua, the second monk, to the mansion, leaving Zhang Rong to arrange the work of the family chores.
