Chapter 47: Father Returns to Beijing

The markets on both sides of the capital were full of people, all looking forward to it.

The prince and Zhou Jinxuan fought Beidi and returned triumphantly, and the people already knew about it.

Beidi has always been at odds with the Great Ming Dynasty, disturbing the border gates many times, killing the people of the Great Ming Dynasty, and everyone hopes to get rid of them quickly.

The court saw that the people were welcomed, and they also rolled out a red carpet in the city, all the way to the red gate of the palace to greet them.

Emperor Qingfeng sent hundreds of civil and military officials and princes and grandsons to greet him at the gate of the palace, and he himself took the imperial concubines to greet him outside the main hall.

The Seventh Prince, Lin Feng, also knew the news, and he also learned in advance that Vice General Weng had been beheaded.

"How so?" Lin Feng was very strange, this time he was very dense and careless, how could he let the situation be reversed by Zhou Jinxuan?

But Concubine Xiao Guifei gave him a look and hinted that he should not act rashly, so Lin Feng had to wait and see what happened.

When Zhou Jinxuan came to the main hall, the emperor looked at it for a long time and asked, "What about the prince?" Why didn't the prince come back with you? ”

Zhou Jinxuan slowly knelt down, his face was heavy, "Back to the emperor, the prince has been killed by a traitor." ”

The ministers were shocked.

The emperor's face changed slightly, "What's going on?" Now that you have won the battle, how can the prince be killed? ”

"Vice General Weng collaborated with the enemy and treason, plotting to kill the prince, if it wasn't for the ministers and subordinates who killed Vice General Weng, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to come back." Zhou Jinxuan said that he concealed Lin Zhongchao's affairs.

Lin Zhongchao said goodbye to Zhou Jinxuan not far from the capital, and before leaving, he asked Zhou Jinxuan not to mention that he had been here before anyone told him, and asked Zhou Jinxuan to give him the credit for killing Deputy General Weng.

Zhou Jinxuan knew what Lin Zhongchao was worried about, so he agreed.

The emperor was furious and asked Zhou Jinxuan to tell Vice General Weng about his crimes, and at that moment, several ministers of the imperial court mentioned that they did not believe that Vice General Weng would rebel, and Vice General Weng did not need to rebel at all, and his family's wife and children were all in the capital.

Zhou Jinxuan was so angry that his teeth trembled, "It's not that he rebelled, could it be that I'm still deceiving people?" ”

The ministers were still arguing, saying that the matter had not yet been clarified, and how the prince died could not be relied on.

Lin Feng stood in front of the queue of courtiers and didn't say a word.

Those courtiers were all his people, and they would say things that were inconvenient for him Lin Feng to say, and they didn't need him to speak in person.

Anyway, the crown prince is dead, and Lin Feng is very happy.

Lin Feng looked at the emperor.

Emperor Qingfeng's face remained unchanged, and he gently moved his jade wrench fingers without saying a word.

After a long while, he said: "I believe what Wu Guogong said, Vice General Weng collaborated with the enemy and treasoned and killed the crown prince. The Weng family was full of beheading, and the prince gave a national funeral, and Yunzun was called the king of Pingbei. ”

After speaking, his face became sad, "The prince has just passed away, and I feel uncomfortable, and I want to go to the queen's spiritual seat to worship." Wu Guogong worked hard, only the wronged Wu Guogong returned home first, and three days later he washed the dust for Wu Guogong. For the next seven days, the whole country will serve filial piety and no festive activities will be allowed. Filial piety clothes must be worn in the palace to comfort the prince's spirit in the sky. ”

Zhou Jinxuan can finally go home.

Seeing the orange lights of the Wu Guogong Mansion at night, a softness floated in my heart.

Lin Yu must have been waiting for him for a day! It's a pity that there is something in the court, and he can't come back so early.

But before the man reached the gate, he saw the familiar figure.

Lin Yu is still waiting at the gate with a few servants!

"Madame!" Zhou Jinxuan couldn't help but scream, rushed off the horse and ran quickly.

Several grandmothers raised the lantern, reflecting Zhou Jinxuan's handsome face, and Lin Yu's eyes were moist.

"Husband!"

The couple stepped forward, and Zhou Jinxuan really wanted to hug his beloved wife tightly. When he was at the border, he missed her so much.

But because someone was there, Zhou Jinxuan just held Lin Yu's hand tightly.

"Originally, my mother, the second uncle, and the third uncle's family were waiting, and they had just gone back for dinner, and the children's concubines also asked Mama Yun to send them back for dinner. The concubine didn't receive the letter that her husband would not return tonight, so she knew that her husband would definitely come back, so she waited here. Lin Yu said, looking at Zhou Jinxuan from head to toe, feeling sorry for him for so long.

"I've kept you waiting." Zhou Jinxuan held Lin Yu's hand, and the two walked into the Guogong Mansion.

Several rows of servants knelt down to greet them, and Zhou Jinxuan sent them to dinner.

Then Lin Yu set up meals in his yard, which were Zhou Jinxuan's favorite food.

The couple was eating, and Zhou Zhengzheng took Zhou Yuheng's hand and came over.

"Father." Zhou Zhengzheng ran over and hugged Zhou Jinxuan's thigh.

I haven't seen him for decades, and Zhou Zhengzheng couldn't help but cry.

"Why is Ah Zheng crying. Well, isn't my father back? Zhou Jinxuan couldn't see the tears of his beloved daughter the most, and his heart softened.

Zhou Zhengzheng buried his face in Zhou Jinxuan's knees, thinking of the last time Zhou Jinxuan and her in his previous life.

"Ah Zheng, don't avenge us, live your life well." Zhou Jinxuan, who has always been competitive, asked Zhou Zhengzheng to let go of his hatred and live a plain life before he died.

How much he loves his daughter to say such a thing!

"Father, in this life, my daughter will definitely live well, and let you all live well." After Zhou Zhengzheng finished speaking in his heart, he raised his head and wiped his tears.

Zhou Jinxuan thought that her daughter was just too sentimental, and thought that she would accompany her daughter more when the prince's affairs were dealt with, and then talked to Zhou Yuheng, and asked about Zhou Yuheng's homework without saying a few words.

Zhou Yuheng is a son, and Zhou Jinxuan is naturally very strict with him, which makes Zhou Yuheng a little afraid of Zhou Jinxuan, and his voice is small, and he grabs the corner of his clothes very unnaturally.

Lin Yu smiled and said: "Yu Heng hasn't seen you for several years, and you asked so many questions as soon as you came, I'm afraid it will scare the child." ”

Zhou Jinxuan was right to think about it, so he asked the two children to go back first.

Then Mama Yun hugged the two-year-old Zhou Xiaoxiao and showed it to Zhou Jinxuan, Zhou Jinxuan teased a few times, Zhou Xiaoxiao called "Daddy" inarticulately, and then was hugged down.

The slave and maid came up with a brass basin and cleaned the hands of the husband and wife.

Zhou Jinxuan said with a smile: "It's okay to wait so thoughtfully at the border gate, and you clean your hands by yourself." It's better to come back. ”

Lin Yu took Zhou Jinxuan's homely clothes and was about to change them, but a slave came in to report that Zhou Bin and his wife had come over.

Lin Yu was stunned, "They must have heard that you were coming back, so they rushed to see you." ”

Zhou Jinxuan pulled Lin Yu's hand and said with guilt: "I'll go to see the second brother, and I'll come back to accompany you when I go to see my mother later." ”

Although Lin Yu was unhappy in her heart, she couldn't help but stop Zhou Jinxuan from seeing her brother, what kind of person would she become.

Zhou Jinxuan then went out to the hall.

When Zhou Bin saw Zhou Jinxuan, he hugged and cried bitterly, "Brother, are you okay?" Brother misses you so much! ”

Zhou Jinxuan was very moved, he didn't expect his second brother to miss him so much, "Second brother, this time I experienced a life-and-death battle, and I came back too quickly, but I didn't have time to prepare gifts for everyone." He will make up for it one day. ”
