Seven days after Zhao Xueyan arrived at the border pass, the ashes of the Marquis of Zhongyuan were sent back to the capital by a small team.

Bo Zhongqing treated him with royal etiquette, and personally led the Manchu Dynasty civil and military to the city gate to greet him, at that time, the Marquis of Zhongyuan's family were all dressed in white and stood behind Bo Zhongqing, although Mrs. Marquis Zhongyuan was seriously ill after this bad news, but she still stood at the forefront of the family with her crumbling body, holding her head high and not a single tear fell.

Bo Zhongqing took the ashes of the Marquis of Zhongyuan from the hands of the generals who returned to the city, turned around and handed them to the hand of the Marquis of Zhongyuan, the lady's firm gaze finally loosened a little when she touched the urn, and her eyes gradually filled with tears, although she did not cry, but it was more sad than crying.

Bo Zhongqing sighed: "The Marquis of Zhongyuan sacrificed his life for the country, I and the people of Zhao will remember it in my heart, pass on my will, the spirit of the Marquis of Zhongyuan is placed at the top of the temple, and the successive royal families are worshipped, and a gold medal for the death of the Marquis of Zhongyuan's Mansion is specially given to show his merits." ”

The father of the Marquis of Zhongyuan knelt down to thank him, and after Mrs. Marquis Zhongyuan got up, she held the urn lovingly, and she didn't want to let go.

This bleak scene made the seeers sad, and the people who saw the Marquis of Zhongyuan go on the expedition were even more so that day, until now they knew that "the wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man is gone, and he will never return", and it is only until now that these nobles who have been raised in Beijing all the year round have thoroughly realized the cruelty of the war, and instantly recognized the reality and were silent......

Bo Yan did not go out of the palace to greet the Marquis of Zhongyuan, he was just a princess, and the affairs of the previous dynasty were not good, and he participated in everything.

Today Bo Yan got up early, dressed in plain clothes, and entered the Buddhist hall early to chant the scriptures, today is the day when the Marquis of Zhongyuan returned to Beijing, although he could not be present at the scene, but this heart still has to be delivered.

By the time Bo Yan came out of the Buddha hall, it was already dusk, and Bo Yan went back to the bedroom with the support of Green Yi, and listened to Green Yi talk about the situation at the city gate today.

"It's really unexpected that Qi Guo was able to hand over the body of Marquis Zhongyuan this time, but the princess doesn't seem to be shocked at all." The green clothes added a cup of tea to the thin rouge.

Bo Yan was really thirsty in the Buddha hall for half a day, and only after drinking half a cup of tea did he speak: "Earlier, before Jin'an left, he sighed with me that the Marquis of Zhongyuan was loyal to the country, and he really couldn't let his body be left in the enemy country and be insulted by this, I thought he was going to take action, but I didn't expect it to be done in just a few days." ”

The green clothes were surprised: "Isn't the new military advisor of the Qi country ruthless, how did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince do it?" ”

Bo Yan was silent, and lowered his head to think: When Jin'an didn't come earlier, if he had just taken Yan Rong's path according to his own ideas, he especially remembered that when Yan Rong was bullied in the Yan family in the past, the Marquis of Zhongyuan once sighed Yan Rong's talent, which was one of the very few people in Beijing who had only eaten Yan Rong at that time, plus he said some soft words and lowered his posture, this thing should be able to ...... After all, Yan Rong has always wanted to let himself look up to him, especially after he exposed what he did in front of him that day and broke up unhappily, he urgently needed his own recognition to satisfy his fragile self-esteem, yes, he could give it a try......

But now that Jin'an has come forward, it saves his own strength, as for how Jin'an does it...... Bo Yan thought about it, with his understanding of Jin'an, he would never take Yan Rong's path after knowing that Yan Rong planned everything, of course, this is absolutely impossible, so ......

Bo Yan frowned, looked up in confusion, and met the expectant gaze of the green clothes, and was immediately stunned, and smiled embarrassedly: "Want to come...... He's got his own way. ”

Green Yi lowered his eyes with some disappointment: "Is it ......?"

Bo Yan blinked in a panic: It's not that he doesn't say it, it's that he really doesn't know.

Of course, this doubt did not last long, but two days Jin An's letter was sent back, Jin An reported safety in the letter, but said two common words, told Bo Yan to take care of his body, and then probably mentioned the reason for this matter, it turned out that Jin An was directly repaired a book and sent it to the emperor of Qi, he wrote this letter as the prince of the Western Jin Dynasty, the letter to the effect that he had heard of the name of the Marquis of Zhongyuan, respected him as a person, and couldn't bear to see what happened to him, whether he could ask Qi to return the body.

Few people know about Jin'an's "running away from home", it is because Qi naturally does not know that it is Jin'an who is now hostile on the battlefield, and now Jin'an is in full swing, King Qi feels that no matter what Jin'an said is true, or Bo Yan asked for the "ex-husband" for the old minister, Jin'an's face must not be given, after all, if the Qi State really destroyed the Zhao State, then the Qi State and the Western Jin Dynasty will be "neighbors" in terms of geographical location in the future, and they still can't offend this future "neighbor master", besides, That Marquis Zhongyuan is already a corpse, hanging in front of the military camp for several days, and the purpose of attacking Zhao State has been achieved, so what if you return the corpse to Zhao State as a favor, not to mention, the heroic death of Marquis Zhongyuan, such a thing as a violent corpse is confirmed to be unkind, in order to prevent Kyushu from saying that Qi State is unscrupulous, it is better to stop in moderation.

So, in this way, the Marquis of Zhongyuan was able to return to his hometown and settle down.

Bo Yan carefully folded the letter and put it in the box, knowing that Jin An was just sending this letter at this moment to make himself feel at ease, so he wanted to write a reply, but a thousand words could not be put together at the tip of the pen but could not be written, and after hesitating for a while, it finally turned into four words: cherish, do not read.

A few days ago, under the command of Zhao Xueyan and the cooperation of all the soldiers, he finally won the first victory after the death of the Marquis of Zhongyuan, which greatly strengthened the morale of our army.

Bo Yan was also very happy, thinking for a long time while secretly trying his best to fight against Mingwei's forces, and at the same time thinking about what should be done for Jin'an, now that the front-line war is tight, then there must be no mistakes in the supply of grain and grass or in armaments and silver, so it seems that someone reported a few days ago that the treasury is not too full......

It is true that the first emperor squandered a lot when he was alive, but he definitely did not report these demoralization with great fanfare when the two armies were fighting, and Mingwei's henchmen had already handed several excerpts to Bo Zhongqing, saying that Bo Yan's current status as a princess should no longer ask about the government, and he was simply forcing himself to give up power step by step, and now he is crying poor like this......

Bo Yan frowned, if this matter is not solved properly, it will definitely affect the situation of Jin'an and others on the front line, but it is a pity that his current identity is indeed inconvenient to ask too much about the government, hey, this time is different from the past, and the days of listening to politics are gone......

"The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics." Bo Yan muttered these words, and suddenly a flash of inspiration occurred in his mind, and he thought of something, and sat up suddenly.

Green Yi looked at Bo Yan suspiciously: "Princess? What's wrong? ”

Bo Yan smiled slightly, got up and straightened his sleeves, in a rare good mood: "I haven't said hello to the queen mother for a few days, the weather is good today, let's go and take a look." ”

The green clothes were stunned, but they wondered why Bo Yan was so abnormal today.

……

Three days later, news came from the harem, saying that the queen had nothing to do and held a small banquet, and asked all the official eunuchs and wives above the fourth grade to bring their female relatives into the palace to sit.

As soon as the news came out, everyone happily prepared with their hearts.

Entering the palace to face the saint, it is natural to be attentive, as for the joy of the world, it is because: according to the insider, the queen is looking at the recent war in Zhao State, and the people's hearts are unstable, this time it is to hold a marriage for the unmarried women of each family, and add a few happy events to make everyone happy, and the candidates for the corresponding men are all rare sons of the family and good looks, that are all candidates stared at by Mrs. Jingzhong, with such an opportunity, it is natural to send her daughter to the palace to try, even if it is not successful, it is good to show her face in front of the queen.

Yes, the capital that has been silent for many days has suddenly become lively in the past two days, and the major brocade, rouge gouache, gold and silver jewelry shops in Beijing have "revived" again, and the business has never been hot, but it is a bad boss, and he is busy counting the profits every day and bowing to the direction of the palace a few times, and thanking the queen for this decision is really good.

Three days later, the carriage in front of the palace almost drained three miles long, but it still entered the palace in an orderly manner according to the official rank.

The queen was receiving everyone in the side hall of the dormitory, and there was also a pond there, the scenery was good, and the size was just right.

Bo Yan is naturally accompanied by the princess, Mrs. Bo was originally a noble girl in Beijing, and she was once the wife of the prime minister, and she is familiar with most of the people here.

Bo Yan is also sitting with several female dependents in a little sitting, Bo Yan was reborn in this life and went directly into the palace, for these former playmates can be said to have not seen in two lifetimes, seeing their youthful and bright smiles and can't help but sigh that things are wrong, counting the previous life, they have been married three times, but they are still the boudoir girls who don't know the taste of sorrow, the most discussed is just this year's popular patterns and which master's craftsmanship is good such trivial matters, which makes me wonder whether I am envious or stunned.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, but the princess still has the same demeanor." Seeing that Bo Yan didn't speak much, the ladies complimented softly.

Bo Yan smiled and nodded, it was not that he didn't want to speak, but his current self really didn't have any common language with them, of course, from the way they looked at him, Bo Yan could also understand that they were afraid of themselves, after all, they had more experience than any of them, and their father had to bow down when he saw him.

Bo Yan sat upright, looked around at the obvious well-dressed warblers and Yanyan who were all over the yard, smiled slightly, and nodded with satisfaction, they are all so obedient, I am very relieved......
