Early the next morning, Yu Wenyuan set off to return to Taiyuan.

Before dawn, everyone in the family was already seeing him off at the gate, and what was parked outside the gate was no longer his horse, but a carriage.

In order to show his loyalty, coupled with the urgency of the situation, he returned to the Eastern Capital from Taiyuan alone, but when he returned, he could no longer travel on a horse, after all, Sheng Guogong's status was noble, so the family prepared this carriage, but he refused the proposal to send additional people to follow.

Before boarding the carriage, Yu Wenye still asked again, "Father, are you really not bringing a few people?"

Yu Wenyuan said, "Don't bother."

As he spoke, he glanced back at the people who came to see him off, and finally his eyes fell on Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi, he was still so satisfied with this pair of beautiful women, and at this moment, the loving smile of the elders also appeared on his face, and said, "What you have explained, have you all remembered?"

Yu Wenye said, "Father don't worry."

Shang Ruyi hurriedly said, "Dad, be careful along the way."

Yu Wenyuan smiled and nodded.

After saying that, he looked down at the little son who was standing on the side again, and only then did he add a little worry between his eyebrows, and said, "This time I came back in a hurry, and I couldn't check your homework, but you are not allowed to be lazy."

Yu Wencheng said in a low voice, "Father, please rest assured."

Although he said this, Yu Wenyuan didn't let go of his heart, but he couldn't explain anything more at this time, and told Yu Wenye a few more words, and then turned around to get into the car.

At this moment, Yu Wenye suddenly stepped forward and said softly, "Father, have you received a letter from your eldest brother?"

Hearing this, Shang Ruyi's heart chuckled.

Yu Wenyuan looked back at him, and also glanced at his daughter-in-law on the side, and saw that she lowered her head and took two steps back, and then said in a deep voice, "You received it?"

Yu Wenye said: "The eldest brother said that he wanted to come back, but the rebels were raging along the way, the road was dangerous, and he had to change the route, I don't know when he would be able to return to the Eastern Capital, and he couldn't receive the letter I sent here."

Yu Wenyuan pondered for a while and said, "I'm not worried about him."

「……」

"No matter how chaotic the world is, it can't be messed up with him. If he wants to come back, he will surely come back safely."

Although these words are reassuring, for some reason, Yu Wenye's eyes are a little deeper than before.

He said, "Yes."

Yu Wenyuan glanced at Shang Ruyi, who was bowing his head and silent, again.

Then he said, "If he comes back, if everything is fine, let him come to Taiyuan to see me first."

Yu Wenye said, "Yes."

After Yuwenyuan finished speaking, he got into the carriage, and as soon as the coachman raised his whip, the carriage immediately left Yuwen's mansion, stepped on the ice and snow and drove forward, and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.

It's just that no one noticed that in the corner at the end of the street, a pair of cold eyes were also watching Yu Wenyuan's car.

It was not until the shadow of the carriage could no longer be seen that the eyes slowly disappeared into the darkness.

And the crowd at the gate also slowly dispersed, only Yu Wenye had been standing at the door, and he hadn't left for a long time, Shang Ruyi on the side looked at his eyes, as if he was looking in the direction where the carriage disappeared, but that look seemed to be looking farther away. ….

What is he looking at?

At this time, Yu Wenye turned around, and when he turned around, he also met her gaze.

He said, "What's wrong?"

Shang Ruyi shook his head in disguise: "It's okay."

After that, she was about to turn around and walk inside, Yu Wenye walked beside her, looked at her several times and stopped, and finally said, "Just ask whatever you want, you don't have to be so babbling."

「……」

Shang Ruyi hesitated for a while before he said softly, "Big, big brother, are you coming back?"

As soon as this question was asked, there was an immediate silence between the two of them.

Shang Ruyi herself also regretted asking this embarrassing question, but if she didn't ask, in the future

didn't know how embarrassing to be, and Yu Wenye was silent for a long time before saying, "It seems that in a short time, I can't come back."

"It's because the rebels are raging, so you have to change the route?"

"Hmm."

"Is it that serious?"

Yu Wenye glanced at her, was silent for a while, and then said, "Every year after the Lantern Festival, the counties and counties will send officials back to the court to report on their work. Do you know how many of them came back this time?"

Shang Ruyi shook her head, although she knew that there was such a rule, but after all, it was a matter of the court, Yu Wenye went out to fight, and she also followed her to Xingluocang, and she had no time to listen to this matter.

Yu Wenye said, "There are envoys from more than 40 counties, but they can't arrive as scheduled."

「……！？」

Shang Ruyi's eyes widened in horror.

Yu Wenye took a deep breath, obviously, this number also made him feel heavy and depressed, and said slowly: "And more than half of those official envoys who were able to rush to the Eastern Capital as scheduled have been harassed and intercepted by the rebels along the way."

「……」

"Do you know what that means?"

Shang Ruyi subconsciously reached out to her chest, but her breathing was not smooth, and she couldn't help but grasp the placket of her clothes hard.

Yu Wenye walked forward and said, "This is still an official of the imperial court, and what should it be like for other travelers, those who are not protected by guards?"

Shang Ruyi was silent.

Although this was about Yuwen returning to the Eastern Capital, she understood that the imperial court was slowly losing its domination and control over all parts of the country.

Yu Wenye finally said, "However, my father has confidence in my eldest brother, and so do I."

「……」

"It's just that he's probably going to have to talk a little longer than usual before he can come back."

Shang Ruyi couldn't help but frown again.

From Yu Wenyuan's plausible-sounding words just now, she could feel that Sheng Guogong, who had outstanding military achievements and strict discipline of his children, had an extraordinary confidence and recognition in his eldest son, as if no matter what the world was, as long as Yu Wenyuan thought about it, he could.

In the eyes of ordinary people, this is a bit blind.

Besides, even Yu Wenye, who has made many military exploits in recent years and has been canonized as a general, may not be able to get his approval, after all, before sending troops to Xingluocang, he also lost his temper because Yu Wenye refused to ask for the soldiers and horses at home, afraid that he would suffer a loss in this battle.

Shang Ruyi couldn't help but want to ask-Yuwen Chou, is it really so powerful?

But, she held back.

After all, it was about Yu Wenxuan, and between her and him, the kind of embarrassment decided that she shouldn't ask more about him.

However, as if seeing the entanglement in her heart, Yu Wenye looked at her for a while, and said calmly, "Don't be afraid."

"Huh?"

"If you're worried that Big Brother is coming back, you'll be reprimanded, so you can relax."

「……」

"I am the one who marries you, and he will blame me."
