Chapter 1761: Return to Beijing
This time, he not only calmed down the chaos in Northern Qi, but also fiercely suppressed the Jiuli tribe.
If the queen mother has realized the dream of the Great Zhou Kingdom for a hundred years of the unification of the two countries, then His Royal Highness the King of Qin is a strong guarantee of the peace and stability of the Great Zhou and the Northern Qi Dynasty.
He deserved to be personally greeted by the emperor and his courtiers.
Seeing him coming on horseback, Zhao Yuanjing immediately got out of the carriage, stepped forward, and said with a smile: "Welcome to the triumph of the little emperor." ”
Zhao Shu immediately knelt on one knee and performed the national salute.
"Minister Zhao Shu, I have seen the emperor."
"Little Uncle Huang, get up. Where did we get so much false courtesy? Zhao Yuanjing hurriedly supported him and said with a smile, "Uncle Xiaohuang has worked hard all the way, and the palace has specially arranged a palace banquet for you." Half a month ago, the imperial grandmother was chattering every day, looking forward to you. ”
Zhao Shu said: "I'll go back to the house to bathe and change clothes first, and then enter the palace to see the Queen Mother." ”
"You have a cold pot and a cold stove in that house, and when you go back at the moment, I don't know if there is firewood to boil hot water. Come with me into the palace, I've already arranged it. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhao Shu followed the emperor into the palace.
Sure enough, a palace maid who had been specially served in the hot spring pool had been arranged to serve him to bathe and change clothes.
Zhao Yuanjing said that he worked hard and asked him to soak in the soup pool to get rid of the fatigue along the way.
Zhao Shu naturally couldn't let so many people wait for him, he quickly finished bathing, changed into his vermilion prince dress, and appeared in full costume.
At the banquet there were only the emperor and a few close imperial relatives and ministers.
The Empress Dowager also came.
When she saw her youngest son, she couldn't hold back a few tears, "Look at it, it's darker, and she's lost weight." It must have endured a lot of suffering. Alas. ”
Zhao Shu saw that she looked a little older, and there was more gray hair, so she couldn't help but lighten her disgust for always forcing herself to marry in the past.
"The Empress Dowager has always been in good health?" He asked. Bibi eBook
"The mourning family stays in the harem, eats and sleeps all day long, where will it be bad." The Empress Dowager looked at her youngest son and asked, "Are you injured this time?" ”
Zhao Shu smiled: "It's just a small injury, it's already healed." The queen mother doesn't have to worry. ”
"Where's the injury?"
"It's already done." Zhao Shu refused to show her.
He has been leading troops to fight outside all the year round, and he has suffered countless injuries, large and small, some of which are no longer visible, and some of which have left scars.
He didn't take it to heart and didn't think it was anything to see.
As a military general, he died on the battlefield, and he also died well.
From the first day he entered the barracks, he had this awareness.
The feast begins, eating and drinking.
After the initial excitement of seeing her son, the Empress Dowager began to talk about choosing a concubine for him.
"Uncle Huang has just come back, don't ask about it after Grandmother Huang." Zhao Yuanjing hurriedly cut him off, not wanting to let the little emperor uncle ruin his fun.
With the temperament of the little emperor, if he is unhappy, it is possible to leave directly.
The Empress Dowager also knew her youngest son's rebellious temperament in her heart, so she didn't mention it.
After the banquet, Zhao Yuanjing left the little imperial uncle to talk in the imperial study.
Although there have been correspondence during this time, many things are still not as clear as being explained in person.
Zhao Shu told the emperor in detail about the form of Northern Qi and Jiuli, including Jiuli's many sneak attacks, and after the last sneak attack, Ji Wenyuan disappeared.
Zhao Yuanjing was also surprised when he heard that Zhuang Yunshu was dead.
"It's good, why did you die?"
