A year later...

"We've pretty much dealt with things here, we'll have to go back next month at the earliest, do you plan to stay here or go back with us?" Walking kite lying on the bed and asking the kite.

"I'll go wherever the general goes!" Kite said firmly.

Buzheng had already guessed that she would answer like this, she respected Kite's own choice, and fell asleep with a casual hum...

After the people of the Lin Mansion learned that they were about to return to the court, the whole mansion was even more colorful and happy.

The emperor rewarded a lot of things, but they were all exchanged for blood and sweat by the kite, and everyone didn't dare to touch it, so they all stuffed it into the treasury where the kite's dowry was loaded.

A month later...

Bu Zheng led the remaining 100,000 troops across thousands of mountains and rivers and entered Beijing in a mighty way.

Although only half of them are left, they have experienced a lot of trials on the battlefield, so they are not going to go out in terms of momentum.

It has entered autumn, it is the most beautiful season in the capital, as soon as the autumn wind comes, the golden fallen leaves will be sprinkled over their heads, and the kite is not in a hurry to erase it, let these fallen leaves linger on her.

The people on the street were as enthusiastic and excited as the fallen leaves.

The name "General Jinsheng" was also shouted from the gate of the capital to the gate of the palace.

Such a scene seems to be déjà vu, but at that time she was still following Bu Yun, everything was still just taken care of by Bu Yun, and the people on both sides shouted "General Hongji", not "General Jinsheng".

Now it's her turn to lead everyone into the court, and it's her turn to take care of everything for everyone.

There was also a slightly rudimentary box hanging from the back of the kite, and she gently rubbed it with her fingertips.

"Brother, we're back, I'll take you home later, okay?" Buzheng muttered softly, slightly crying, but no one could hear her but herself.

Before entering the palace, Bu Zheng deliberately cleaned up the fallen leaves on his body, and handed over Bu Yun's ashes to Kite to manage.

"Iris, I'm going to enter the palace later, and it's very likely that I won't be able to go back until the evening, can I ask someone to bring you back to the Lin Mansion now?" Buzheng asked gently, she was afraid that Kite would not be suitable when she first came to the capital.

"No, General, I'll just wait here, I don't want to go back alone first..."

Although she has been following the zither for more than a year, she has always been careful when talking to the zither.

"Okay, whatever you want, then I'll go in first, you can go to the inn over there and wait, the sun is poisonous, don't get sunburned." The kite pointed to the inn road not far away.

She understands that Kite is stubborn and will not listen to persuasion, so she will not persuade more.

……

"Minister, Buzheng and his subordinates Zheng Xiaoqing, Wang Jiaojiu, and Bu Yide knock to see the emperor"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live." The crowd knelt down and saluted.

"Hurry up! You're tired along the way, so get up! The emperor in the Ming Hall said lovingly.

"Emperor Xie!" The crowd rose one after another.

"You are also all meritorious servants of my beam, I must reward you well!" The emperor then spoke excitedly.

Today is the home of these triumphant soldiers, and most of the congratulatory voices in the court, although everyone has their own ghosts in their hearts, no one will cause trouble in the court.

After retiring from the court, the emperor and the queen also set up a banquet as usual to invite these military representatives into the palace, and also said that it was to catch the wind and wash the dust.

"Xiaozheng, Mrs. Lin is still on the reading desk, let's invite him to come over." The Empress suggested.

"But it's up to the emperor, the mother is in charge." Bu Zheng got up and said.

Today, the warriors of Northern Xinjiang returned triumphantly, and Lin Shangchen could have rested for a day, but the smart Lin Taifu thought that Buzheng would definitely be left in the palace as soon as he came back, and he would definitely be able to see her earlier if he stayed in this palace.

"See the emperor, the queen." Lin Shangchen followed the little eunuch and walked in, saluting.

As soon as Lin Shangchen stepped into the door, except for the emperor and queen, everyone else stood up, smiled politely at him and nodded, and Lin Shangchen also returned the salute one by one.

The first thing he saw was the kite, uh... It's dark again, it's dark, it's more like Buyun...

"Today is also a banquet for your daughter-in-law, you can sit next to her, don't be restrained!" The emperor commanded.

"Your Majesty."

Everyone sat down, still familiar with the process, first asked about the specific situation of the kite army, and then...

"Jiaojiu, I remember that you are the same age as Bu Zheng, you see that other people's husbands and gentlemen are next to you, why are you not in a hurry?" The queen asked with concern.

Buzheng feels that this scene is familiar, yes! I was also married in such a daze! I don't know who Wang Jiaojiu will be married to this time.

"Back to the queen's mother, the minister once swore that if he wanted to marry, he had to marry a beloved who had the same interests as him, so he was not in a hurry about this marriage." Wang Jiaojiu stood up and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Bu Zheng admired it very much, why didn't he answer like this at that time? Oh~ Back then, there was Bu Yun on the side, and he couldn't win.

"Do you need to introduce you to a few of them?" The queen asked reluctantly.

"The minister has always thought that fate is predestined, if there is fate, why do you need to be introduced by others, so the minister does not dare to bother the queen." Wang Jiaojiu replied.

Cow, cow, Buzheng is reluctant to even eat a bite of the good food next to it, and he watched the show.

"Okay, no one has this heart, so don't worry about it, let these young people follow." The emperor is very open-minded and will not force people to go on blind dates.

"Thank you to the emperor for excusing the ministers, and thank you for your kindness." Wang Jiaojiu thanked.

And that's it? Buzheng looked at Lin Shangchen next to him, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he had suffered a loss.

"Huh? Were you like that back then? Lin Shangchen touched the kite with his elbow.

"Yes, but I compromised and agreed at the time." Bu Zheng said helplessly.

"Then we are really fate!" Lin Shangchen smiled sheepishly.

"You little couple are newlywed, what do you say quietly, and give us a lot of fun." Qin Ansheng looked at the two of them laughing very obscenely, so he deliberately quipped.

"Back to the emperor, it was Buzheng She remembered the scene when the queen gave her a marriage before, and said that the two of us were the fate in General Wang's mouth." Lin Shangchen replied with a smile.

Bu Zheng: Slut!

"Seeing the love of your husband and wife, Qin Se and Ming, this palace is much more relieved." The queen said with a smile.

"Yes, I haven't thanked the queen for giving the kite to Weichen for so long, and I salute the queen mother here for a cup to show the grace of love back then." After speaking, Lin Shangchen raised the wine glass on the table and drank it all.

The queen was not ambiguous, and she just dried it in one bite.

At the end of the banquet, Nian Zai drank wine, the emperor prepared carriages for them, and ordered the palace people to send them back in person.

But Buzheng still has to take Buyun's ashes back to Bufu first, the ashes can't be contaminated with the holy relics in the palace, plus Buzheng drank wine again, although he was not drunk, but it was always a little unsafe to ride a horse, so they decided to walk back to Bufu first.

"Shang Chen, let's pick someone up at the inn first." Bu Zheng pointed to the inn not far away.

Lin Shangchen naturally knew about the fact that Buzheng took in a girl in Northern Xinjiang, but how could he know that girl would be his rival in love...

As soon as they entered the inn, they saw the petite girl, sitting timidly in the corner.

"Kite, this is my husband." Buzheng introduced.

"Hello kite-girl." Lin Shangchen greeted politely.

Kite also nodded politely.

Although Lin Shangchen didn't know, Kite knew very well that they were rivals.
