Chapter 292: Return to Beijing

Closer and closer to Kaifeng City, Zhao Yan's mood is getting more and more excited, he has been away from home for nearly a year, he now misses his family very much, Cao Ying, Xue Ning'er, two sisters, etc., especially his newly born daughter, which makes him extremely worried, and every night he can dream of a cute little baby clapping his hands and calling his father. /

On the way, Zhao Yan had already received news from home, not only knew that Xue Ning'er gave birth to a daughter to herself, but also knew that in order to name it, her two sisters were in dispute, Princess Bao'an wanted to name her daughter Si'er, but Princess Shoukang insisted on naming her Layue, but the two fought for a long time, and finally decided to take a step back and take a word from each of the two names, so Zhao Yan's daughter's milk name is called Siyue, but this name is no longer like a milk name, but can be regarded as a real name.

After nearly a month of hurrying, Zhao Yan and the others finally saw Kaifeng City in front of them, which made Zhao Yan in the carriage excitedly open the window and look around, but Yelusi, who was sitting next to him, became more and more nervous, grabbed the corners of his skirt with both hands and kept rubbing them, and his palms were also full of sweat, and she was even more nervous when she thought of meeting Zhao Yan's family, especially Cao Ying, the real princess.

"Si'er, you don't have to worry, Ying'er and they all get along very well, not to mention that you are still pregnant, and when you go back, you will only be protected by everyone as a baby, and no one dares to say anything." Zhao Yan also saw Yelusi's nervousness at this time, and immediately stretched out his hand to hold her palm and comforted her.

"Hmm!" Jeruth agreed, but still couldn't help but be a little nervous. She has been living in the palace since she was a child, and now she is giving up her identity to accompany Zhao Yan to live in the Great Song Dynasty, which is thousands of miles away, which is definitely a huge challenge for her.

"Don't worry, every qiē has a husband!" When Zhao Yan saw this, he had to squeeze her hand again and comforted her, and then he thought of one more thing, and said with a smile at the moment, "Speaking of which, the day after tomorrow is the Shangyuan Festival, and the lantern festival in Tokyo City is famous all over the world, so I will take you to see it when the time comes." It was a very lively day. ”

I heard Zhao Yan mention the Lantern Festival in Tokyo City. Yelusi couldn't help but be shocked, although they also had a lantern festival in Shangjing, but the scale was far worse than Tokyo City, as early as when she was in the palace, she had heard of the excitement of the Tokyo Lantern Festival in the Great Song Dynasty. I've always dreamed of seeing the Tokyo Lantern Festival with my own eyes. I didn't expect that now this wish is finally coming true.

Zhao Yan saw that Yelusi was interested in the Lantern Festival. Immediately, he stepped up his efforts and said, "If you want to say that the lantern festival in Tokyo City is really lively, for example, last year, we first went to the Imperial Street to wait. After dark, there is a drum sound, and then hundreds of dragon-shaped boat lanterns come out together, and when the first dragon lantern arrives at Aoshan, it immediately takes the fire on the lamp and lights the Ao, and then the lamps on the entire royal street begin to ignite, and finally the lamps of the entire Tokyo city will be lit, and then the whole lantern festival will officially begin......"

Hearing Zhao Yan's introduction to the grand occasion of the Lantern Festival, Yelusi was also fascinated by it, and her eyes were full of yearning, and at the same time, the tension in her heart was slowly thrown aside by her, and her mind was full of plans to appreciate the Lantern Festival the day after tomorrow, and even she had planned to take the opportunity to enjoy the Lantern Festival to have a good relationship with Zhao Yan's princess, and get along well in the future.

When Zhao Yan and their convoy came to Kaifeng City, Zhao Shu, who had already received the news, also led the ministers to greet them, after all, the return of Zhao Ji and Zhao Yan also represented the official return of the last mission to Liao, and this mission also made a lot of contributions to the Great Song Dynasty, such as Yelu Chongyuan's rebellion is inseparable from them, and it is normal for Zhao Shu to come to greet them.

Seeing the greeting team led by Zhao Shu himself, Zhao Ji and Zhao Yan immediately rushed to the front to salute Zhao Shu, Zhao Shu was also very happy to see the two sons return safely, but he glared at Zhao Yan fiercely, it seems that the matter of his unauthorized killing of the impeachment bowl has also been spread to the court.

Maybe it was for reasons of secrecy, maybe it was to take care of Zhao Yan's face, Zhao Shu didn't say anything in front of so many people, on the surface, he was very kind to Zhao Yan and Zhao Yan, and then the father and son took the carriage back to the palace together, but as soon as they got into the carriage, Zhao Shu immediately scolded Zhao Yan with a gloomy face: "Third brother, you are so bold!" ”

"The son-in-law is willful, please punish the father!" Zhao Yan knew that he couldn't escape Zhao Shu, so he didn't deny it, and admitted very simply, anyway, this matter has already been done, as for how to punish it, let Zhao Shu watch it.

"You ......" saw that Zhao Yan didn't even have a defense, which made Zhao Shu angry and anxious, originally Wanyan was under house arrest Zhao Yan really deserved to die, but later it led to an alliance with Wanyan Ministry, and this matter was unanimously agreed by the courtiers, but in the end it was destroyed by Zhao Yan, which made Zhao Shu unable to explain to the ministers at all, and even many ministers had written to ask Zhao Yan to be severely punished.

"Daddy, don't be angry, although the third brother killed the impeachment of Libo is a little reckless, but he also has his own reasons, the first is that although the Wanyan Department is weak, the entire Jurchen is not weak, and has even become one of the main threats to the Liao State......"

Zhao Yan said and said what Zhao Yan persuaded him to say, but this was only the first point, and then I saw him continue: "The second is that after the third brother fell into the hands of Wanyan, he also suffered a lot of grievances, and even usually didn't even have food, so he could only rely on Zhou Dong and them to hunt for a living, father, you see that the third brother is now black and thin, when I first saw him, he was even darker and thinner than now, and his hands were all frozen, so it can be said that he suffered a lot, so the third brother naturally resented Wanyan in his heart. Before, he was powerless to retaliate, and then when he reached an alliance, he finally couldn't help but kill the other party, but this is also the crime of Wanyan Deserved, my Great Song royal family is extremely noble, how can I let the Jurchen savages be so contemptuous? ”

Zhao Shu heard Zhao Yan's words, especially when Zhao Yan suffered a lot in Wanyan, the expression on his face finally eased, and he looked at Zhao Yan seriously, but now he is really much thinner than he was at the beginning, and the chilblains on his hands are not good, thinking that Zhao Yan didn't want to go at the beginning, but he forced him to send an envoy to Liao, and as a result, he suffered so much, which also made Zhao Shu feel a little blamed in his heart, and he couldn't bear to scold Zhao Yan anymore.

Zhao Yan has also been observing the change in Zhao Shu's expression, and at this time, he immediately struck while the iron was hot, and stepped forward with a smile: "Father, although the son made a mistake in the end, he assisted the eldest brother to provoke the civil strife in the Liao State before, and even Yelu Hongji died in this civil strife, and the Liao State is still fighting endlessly, so even if there is no merit, there is hard work, if the merit is offset, there should not be any punishment, right?" ”

Hearing Zhao Yan mention his contribution to the Liao State, Zhao Shu's face was also a little relaxed, and even a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he also didn't expect that his two sons would give him such a big surprise, after the civil strife in Liao, Da Song Ke was much more relaxed.

"Well, you did a good job in the civil strife in Liao." Zhao Shu rarely complimented him, but then he said to Zhao Yan with a stiff face, "But Yan'er, you are so bold that you have abducted all the princesses of Liao, what are you going to do about this matter?" ”

"Father, Si'er and I are in love with each other, and we can't help but come together, and for my sake, she is willing to give up her identity as a princess, and she will stay by my side as an ordinary woman in the future, and the Liao State has also blocked the news of Si'er's disappearance for the sake of face, so as long as we don't disclose Si'er's identity, there will be no big reaction from the Liao side." Zhao Yan smiled and said, he actually saw that Zhao Shu didn't seem to mean to embarrass Yelusi.

"Father, the third brother can kidnap the princess of the Liao Kingdom back, which can be regarded as a face for the imperial family of the Great Song Dynasty, and the princess of the Zheng Kingdom is also pregnant with your grandson, so no matter what, you can't send people back to the Liao Kingdom." Zhao Ji also helped Zhao Yan intercede at this time, which was also something he had promised Zhao Yan a long time ago.

"Hmph, that is, now that Liao is in turmoil, they are too busy to take care of themselves, so they don't have the energy to pay attention to this matter, but if the Liao State eases up in the future, I'm afraid it will make a big fuss about this matter, is it possible that we still have to raise the New Year's coin?" Zhao Shu said angrily, but Zhao Yan and Zhao Ji both seemed to be angry at this time, Zhao Shu was not really angry, but just to beat Zhao Yan and let him not be too reckless in the future.

When Zhao Yan saw this, he immediately glanced at Zhao Yan, but Zhao Yan immediately bowed and saluted: "Daddy's lesson, the matter of the son's minister is not well considered, and he will definitely not do it again in the future!" ”

"Well, it's good to know your mistakes, from today on, the woman next to you is named Cao Si, a distant cousin of your wife's mother's family, her father's name is Cao Rang, she is a county lieutenant under the rule of Dezhou, Hebei, and her mother Cao Chen has a son and three daughters, Cao Si is the youngest, and you will take Cao Si as a concubine when you pass through Dezhou, you have to remember these!" Zhao Shu nodded and admonished.

"Yes, Erchen has written it down, thank you Daddy!" Zhao Yan smiled when he heard this, Zhao Shu even arranged Yelusi's fake identity, so it can be seen that he had already agreed to Zhao Yan and Yelusi's matter.

Just as Zhao Yan and their father and son were talking, their carriage finally returned to Kaifeng City, among which Yelusi's carriage was sent to the county king's mansion, and Cao Ying, who got the news, would naturally treat her well.

However, Zhao Yan went to the palace with Zhao Shu, because although the matter of Yelusi was solved, Zhao Yan's killing of the impeachment of Libo and the destruction of the alliance was not over, even if Zhao Shu did not blame him, Zhao Shu had to give an explanation to the ministers of the court.
