As soon as she finished speaking, she couldn't help laughing, Xu Mingchuan also smiled softly on the side, two completely different but both with tender laughter rose and fell in the wind with the fragrance of green grass in early summer, and seemed to play a song of praise with affection.

Xiao Qionglan sat in the luxurious and spacious carriage, looking at the two people smiling in the distance from the half-open curtain.

"Princess, with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince like this, I'm afraid that our plan will not be very easy to implement. The maid sat at her feet, gently pinching her calves, which were a little sore from sitting for a long time.

She snorted coldly, a cold light flashed in her good-looking phoenix eyes, and she said disdainfully: "It doesn't matter what he looks like, it doesn't matter who he has in his heart, the person I tried my best to marry is only the prince of Changguo, not him Xu Mingchuan." ”

"Besides—" She leaned back, her voice a little lazy, "I heard that after he went on the expedition, it has been the responsibility of Xu Minghe, the king of Rong, to act on behalf of the crown prince, and now that the prince has returned to Beijing, I think there must be a good show waiting for me to watch." When the time comes, he will know whether a simple-minded princess who doesn't know anything is more beneficial to him, or a princess who is good at planning is more needed by him. ”

Originally, as long as the relatives chose a suitable age from among the clan girls, they could be crowned princesses at that time. And although Xiao Qionglan is a princess, she doesn't need her to kiss.

But who told her to have a good brother?

The emperor of Zhou has entered his twilight years, but the position of the crown prince is still undecided. Even if Xiao Chenjun is a heavy soldier, he is far less favored than in the eyes of others. She leaned back on the soft pillow and closed her eyes slightly, but she was thinking about how to carry out her plan as soon as possible.

Half an hour later, Xiao Qionglan's family send-off procession was embedded in the army and slowly drove into the west gate of Kyoto City.

The pedestrians on the street were cleaned by Jin Wuwei, and before they had walked a street after entering the city gate, they saw a bright yellow sedan chair parked in front of them, and a man dressed in the prince's costume stood in front of him.

In the wine shops and inns on both sides, they are crowded with daughters and noblewomen who are like flowers and jade, although the styles of the fans they hold in their hands are not quite the same, but the embroidered ones are all kinds of mandarin ducks.

Ye Luwu turned his head slightly to look at them, then smiled slyly, turned to Xu Mingchuan and whispered: "Look, idlers are not allowed on the city wall to wait and see, so they are all here. ”

Xu Mingchuan originally looked straight ahead, but when he heard her say this, he turned around slightly, and the corners of his mouth raised lightly, "The army behind you and me are all good men, famous women and new generals, this is a good story that people are vying for." ”

"What's more, isn't this famous flower in front of me?"

When he said this, his strong eyebrows were soaked in a thick tenderness, not only was he stunned, but even the young lady in the private room on the second floor blushed when she saw Xu Mingchuan like this.

When the army reached the sedan chair, everyone dismounted and knelt on one knee.

Xiao Qionglanlian moved lightly, stepped on a low stool and slowly walked out of the carriage, straightened her back and walked forward under the curious and amazed eyes of everyone, standing dignified in front of the army.

Xu Minghe also took a few steps forward, and then with a slight wave of his right hand, an attendant bent down and walked forward holding a tray.

With an extremely joyful smile on his face, he said loudly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has returned victoriously, and my father is very relieved. But I had no choice but to overwork in winter, and this strong wind and cold was intermittent for more than two months and still did not heal. Therefore, his father sent his younger brother to greet him with Shang Fang's sword, and His Royal Highness thanked him first. ”

The sword of Shang Fang has been in existence since the time of Emperor Yuan, but it has never been used for more than two hundred years. Wherever it goes, as if the Holy One is coming, everyone must kneel down to greet it. Now this first use is given to Xu Minghe.

In the past six months, Xu Mingchuan's prestige in the army has been very high, and everyone looked at Xu Minghe holding Shang Fang's sword, although they were not angry in their hearts, but they could only touch the ground with their foreheads very reluctantly.

And even they feel uncomfortable in their hearts, let alone Xu Mingchuan, who is the crown prince.

Since the day he was made the crown prince, except for the emperor and the queen, he has never bowed down to others. And Xu Minghe was originally not on good terms with him, although he knelt down towards Shang Fang's sword at this time, the person in front of him could not be ignored no matter what.

Xu Minghe still stood there with a smile on his face, watching Xu Mingchuan kneel at his feet with a group of soldiers, and his heart was extremely happy. He secretly said in his heart, if you can kneel in front of me once today, there will be a second day, a third day, and one day, I will make everyone kneel to me.

"Although it is still early, my father has set up a banquet in the palace, this is to celebrate His Royal Highness, and the other is to catch the wind for Princess Changping. He leaned slightly to the side, revealing the sedan chair behind him, "My father specially instructed his younger brother to be able to share this sedan chair after welcoming His Highness, and His Highness will invite him first." ”

Because Xu Mingchuan's spear had long been lost in the canyon leading to Anyi City, although he was wearing armor at this time, he was empty-handed.

He took a slight step forward, and then said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a while, but the second brother seems to have improved a lot. ”

Xu Minghe followed him into the sedan chair, and said respectfully: "The younger brother has only taken over for His Royal Highness for a few months, and he is already physically and mentally exhausted. ”

Hearing this, Xu Mingchuan laughed secretly in his heart, this greed for power can be said so high-soundingly, isn't it really a benefit.

The sedan chair slowly walked forward, and everyone quickly got up from the ground, and then turned over and got on their horses, and the early summer sun shone a dazzling sunlight on the silver armor.

Xiao Qionglan took a deep look at Ye Luwu, who was clearly dressed in a wide dress but still heroic, and a look of unknown meaning flashed in her eyes, and then she turned around and walked into her carriage and followed them closely.

These tens of thousands of troops could not enter the city of Kyoto, so after bowing down to the sword of Shang Fang, they returned to the school field on the outskirts of Beijing with several generals. Those who followed Xu Mingchuan into the palace only had some generals with outstanding achievements.

The merit books of the soldiers have been sorted out, and they are waiting for the reward when they enter the palace in the morning.

Horses were not allowed to move forward in the palace, so after everyone reached the palace gate, they jumped off their horses and walked into it on foot.

And because the emperor is still in the palace, the two of them can't continue to sit in the sedan chair.

Sixteen people carried the sedan chair in front of them, and a group of people in different costumes followed closely behind, walking towards the Tinglan Palace with solemn and solemn expressions.
