Chapter 242: Return to Jiangnan

After the sky was completely bright, everyone in the mission was ready, all the salutes were loaded, and the officials of the Yan Kingdom who were in charge of seeing them off had already arrived.

Chu Li exchanged pleasantries with the officials of Yan State for a while, and then immediately led the Great Jin delegation to march outside the Great Thorn City, and Hua An led the captive camp to follow closely to protect the safety of the mission officials.

At the moment when he rode out of the gate of the Great Thorn City, Hua An suddenly felt a little empty in his heart, as if something was missing, but he couldn't feel what was missing, this feeling was really very strange.

"Big brother, you're going home, why don't you look unhappy!" Wang San saw Hua An's lonely face and asked with concern.

"No, big brother is very happy! Ha ha! Hua An grinned, but the smile was more ugly than crying.

When Tie Niu saw it, he quipped: "Big brother, have you fallen in love with that Yanguo County Lord, and you are reluctant to let others go." ”

was said by Tie Niu, Hua An suddenly found the reason for his bad mood, it seems that he has a love for Murong Yan, but after all, he has just gotten married, if he rashly admits it, wouldn't it seem that he is too careful.

"Iron Bull, what nonsense are you talking about? The eldest brother is a little tired. Hua An flatly denied it.

Tie Niu pursed his lips in disbelief, he looked at Wang San, and whispered: "Wang San, if our eldest brother marries the county lord of the Yan Kingdom again, we will have two sisters-in-law at the same time." ”

"Haha!" Thunderstorm and Zhao Wu both laughed when they heard this.

"Tie Niu, don't talk nonsense, that's the county lord of the Great Yan Kingdom." Wang San reprimanded Tie Niu.

Tie Niu was not happy when he heard this, and pouted and retorted: "What's wrong with the county lord, I see that the county lord likes the eldest brother a lot, isn't it!" Eldest brother. ”

"Shut up." Hua An reprimanded in a low voice, but Tie Niu's words made him feel a lot, Murong Yan did have a love for himself, as long as he was not a fool, he could see it.

If she just said goodbye like this, would she be sad and sad? Hua An felt a little uneasy in his heart.

However, Murong Yan is the county lord after all, and he is the county lord of Yan Kingdom, as a general of the Great Jin Dynasty, there can be no result between him and the county lord of Yan Kingdom, perhaps, it would be a mistake to know her, but Hua An didn't have any regrets, who made Murong Yan a beautiful woman with outstanding appearance?

The Great Thorn City is less than 100 miles away from Bintu, the Great Jin Mission set off early in the morning, after a day of rapid marching, the next morning, it arrived at the ferry port south of Bintu City, and the 50 big ships of the mission were parked there.

Seeing that the mission had returned safely, Han Yong, the leader of the Qilin Battalion, hurriedly greeted him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's great that you're finally back." Han Yongqing was a little excited, when the Great Jin Mission was trapped in the Great Thorn City by more than 100,000 troops of the Zhao State, he wanted to come to the rescue, but unfortunately the warship could not walk on land, he could only do it in a hurry, and now, the mission finally returned safely, and he was relieved.

"Master Han, how are the boats prepared and when can they leave?" Chu Li omitted the greetings and asked directly about the matter.

"Back to the general, the supplies of the ships are ready and ready to leave at any time." Han Yong replied.

When Chu Li heard this, he was extremely happy and praised: "Okay, very good, Master Han, you immediately ask the soldiers to help carry the materials transported from the Great Thorn City, and after all the personnel get on the ship, they will set off immediately and return to Jiangnan." ”

"Yes, General." Han Yong shouted the order, and then led more than 1,000 soldiers of the Qilin Battalion to get off the ship to help the capture battalion carry supplies.

Most of these materials are the native products of the Great Thorn City, and the officials of the mission come all the way to buy some local specialties when they leave, and even the ordinary soldiers of the begging camp have also used their own military salaries to buy quite special products, and the amount of these materials is naturally very large.

There are also some excellent specialties, such as mink and ginseng from Changbai Mountain, which are tributes to the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty on the Yan King Murong Hao, all packaged in exquisite gift boxes.

In order to carry these materials, the soldiers of the capture camp and the Qilin camp worked hard for a whole hour, and after all the materials were loaded onto the big ship, more than 50 ships of the Great Jin Mission officially set sail and headed for the south of the Yangtze River.

The big ship went farther and farther, Bintu City gradually disappeared from sight, looking at the vague land of Liaodong behind him, everyone's mood was complicated, the original simple canonization matter, actually encountered such a big twist and turn, the Great Jin delegation actually stayed in the land of Liaodong for several months, from the cold winter of heavy snow, until the spring of birds and flowers, which no one expected.

In this twist and turn, the capture camp paid a lot of price, there are nearly 100 soldiers, forever lying on the land of Liaodong, however, these sacrifices are inevitable, it is their sacrifice in exchange for the glory of the Great Jin soldiers, Yan Guo since Murong Hao down, no one dares to look down on the soldiers of the Great Jin.

When going north and south from the south of the Yangtze River, there was a strong wind and the enemy intercepted along the way, and the last wave of twists and turns, actually landed from Xi'anping, which can be said to have gone through a lot of hardships, but the way back to the south of the Yangtze River was surprisingly smooth, along the way, not only did not encounter the blocking Zhao Guoshui Division, but even the larger wind and waves were not encountered, and the fleet only took less than ten days to reach the mouth of the river.

After a pause of several hours on Qilin Island and some fresh water, the fleet continued to move on, entering the river, and in less than a day, the fleet finally reached the ferry port north of the capital.

When the fleet anchored at the ferry, it happened to be early in the morning, the river was foggy, like a fairyland, at this time, most of the officials of the mission were still asleep, Hua'an got up early, climbed the terrace on the top of the Kirin alone, enjoyed the foggy beauty of the river, breathed the fresh air without pollution, felt so comfortable, the scenes experienced in Liaodong, also like the fog in front of him, became blurred.

"General Hua, get up so early!" Chu Li's voice came from behind him.

Hua An turned around and saw Chu Li walking up, and hurriedly said, "General Chu." ”

"Hmm." Chu Li responded, looked at the foggy river, and said with emotion: "After a few months, I finally came back." ”

"Yes! I originally planned to go back and forth in a month, but I didn't expect that this trip would be four or five months, and the last general also felt quite surprised. Hua An truthfully said what he thought in his heart.

"Haha!" Chu Li laughed twice when he heard this, looked at Hua An, and quipped: "The general is an old man, even if he goes for four or five years, it doesn't matter, but General Hua has just been married and has been away from home for a few months, so he must be very homesick in his heart!" After speaking, he smiled meaningfully.

Chu Li said very vaguely, but Hua An understood that this was a hint that he missed his newlywed wife, Chu Li was a person who came over, and he had been newly married, so he had a deep understanding of this kind of newlywed.

The sun gradually rose, the fog on the river gradually dispersed, and the scenes experienced in Liaodong gradually dispersed like the fog on the river.

At this time, the capital is more than ten miles away, starting from the ferry, it only takes a few hours to ride a horse, even if you go with the mission, before dark, you will definitely be able to enter the capital.

As soon as he thought that there was a newlywed lady in his mansion who was looking forward to it, Hua Anxin was restless for a while, and he couldn't wait to jump into the mansion immediately.

After dawn, the soldiers got up one after another, unloaded the supplies on the ship, loaded the trucks, and walked along the road to the capital.

Before the evening, the team had already entered the capital, because this trip was ordered by the emperor to go to Liaodong, after entering the city, Hua'an did not return to the palace immediately, but went to the palace with the mission to resume his life.

In the palace, Sima Yan praised the members of the mission who completed the mission, and Sima Yan also sighed at some of the twists and turns encountered by the mission, especially the capture camp of Hua'an participated in the battle of Yanzhao and played the military might of the Great Jin, which made Sima Yan even more excited.

In recognition of Hua'an's merits, Sima Yan rewarded Hua'an with 100,000 yuan in court, and the rest of the soldiers were also rewarded according to the size of their merits.

After leaving the palace, Hua An asked Wang San and a few people to lead the soldiers of the capture camp back to the camp of the Northern Expeditionary Army first, while he himself rode back to his home in the capital.

Before going to Liaodong, Hua'an said that it would only take more than a month, but there was no news for four or five months, which made everyone in Washington very anxious, of course, the most anxious was naturally Hua'an's father and newlywed Ling'er.

When Hua An rode his horse to the gate of the mansion, he saw that the gate was not closed, so he dismounted and walked in, and a small guard hurriedly greeted him.

"General, you're finally back, and everyone in the house thinks they'll never see you again." The little guy said and stepped forward to help Hua An lead the horse.

"Crow's mouth, isn't General Ben alive and well?" Hua An let go of the horse's reins and gave the little guy a blank look.

When the little guy saw Hua An angry, he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly explained: "General, the little one can't speak, don't be angry." ”

Hua An waved his hand, indicating that he was not angry, and asked, "Is Madame here?" ”

"In, in the backyard? The general didn't come back for several months, but he worried his wife badly, and the villain could see his wife crying from time to time? The little guy said emotionally.

When Hua An heard that his wife had tears because he was worried about himself, his heart suddenly throbbed, he calmed down, looked at the little maid, and said, "Go, lead the horse to the stable, and feed more grass." ”

"Don't worry! Checkmate. The little servant said and led the horse in the direction of the stable.

Hua An dressed up, walked to the backyard, and walked through several corridors to the backyard where Wang Ling lived.

As soon as he entered the backyard, Hua An saw a familiar figure, standing under the gazebo with his back to him, and from time to time he reached out to his cheek.

Who else could this familiar figure be if it wasn't Wang Ling, Hua An smiled indifferently at the corner of his mouth, walked over gently, and stood five steps behind Wang Ling, and could already hear Wang Ling's faint sobbing.

Seeing that Ling'er was really crying, Hua Anxin felt distressed for a while, his wife was so worried about herself, and now that she is back, she has to take good care of it.
