Chapter 497: Withdrawal of Troops (Second Shift)
He heard Yu Ning talk about what happened after Princess Baorong married into the Great Zhou today, and he had the answer in his heart.
He never felt like his father before, his father killed ruthlessly, he was soft-hearted, but he felt more and more in the past few days that he was his father. The choice he will make, his father will certainly do the same.
As long as it is for Youning's good, as long as it is what Youning wants, he will work hard to achieve it, even if he is covered in bruises.
Zhao Chengyuan stood under the porch for a moment.
He didn't hear Luo Fuzhang's answer, but he already knew the answer.
He pushed open the door and entered the house, and Han Sixing, who was originally sitting and eating snacks, immediately put down the snacks and straightened his sitting posture. Su Bai, who was leaning close to Luo Yuanzhang to drink tea and watch the excitement, also sat upright, smiled, and looked like he was not close to Luo Fuzhang. The originally relaxed atmosphere in the room has been much more confined.
Only Luo Fuzhang still smiled lightly, and calmly got up to salute, "Lord Wang."
Zhao Chengyuan glanced at him lightly, paced to Han Youning and sat down.
Han Youning poured him tea and asked, "Lord Wang, what did King Xiliang say?"
Zhao Chengyuan said, "He went to Cangyuan Mountain, and then he could have an answer."
"He went to the top of the mountain to pay homage to Princess Po Wing?"
Zhao Chengyuan nodded, "Yes."
Han Sixing was very surprised, "It takes at least ten days to go to Cangyuan Mountain, and hundreds of thousands of troops are waiting here like this, which costs a lot. He was willing to pay such a big price to make a trip, and he was clearly shaken."
Su Bai was surprised, "Did you really let the eldest prince say it right?"
Zhao Chengyuan looked at Luo Fuzhang, "Since King Xiliang is no longer in Liuze, the eldest prince can go back."
Luo Fuzhang smiled, "It's okay."
When he is gone, Zhao Chengyuan can rest assured. Their relationship as husband and wife will not be disturbed.
Han Youning was anxious, "Big brother, stay a few more days, this time we are separated, and I don't know when we will see each other again."
She and her eldest brother haven't seen each other for six years, and they really don't care about life and death, but for the eldest brother, they haven't seen her for more than a year.
Luo Yuanzhang smiled warmly and said softly, "There are more opportunities to meet in the future. Now there are still more than 100,000 troops in Liuze, and if the generals act without authorization, it will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble, so I better restrain one or two."
But the two countries are separated by thousands of miles, and everyone is sensitive, so it is so easy to see each other. But the eldest brother's reason is very good, the state affairs are important, and she can no longer impose it.
Han Youning said in frustration, "I thought that the eldest brother would stay for a long time, and there are still a lot of things I haven't told the eldest brother, and I haven't made snacks for the eldest brother."
Luo Fuzhang got up with a smile, "When you have finished speaking, save it for next time."
He didn't drag the mud and water at all, told his sister a few words, and then said goodbye and left.
Su Bai had some respect for this cousin's open-mindedness and decisiveness, and kept sending him out of the city.
Dinner was served.
Han Youning didn't know the taste of food.
Perhaps, she will never see her eldest brother again. In his previous life, the eldest brother knew that she was in the capital, didn't he never go to see her?
Zhao Chengyuan helped her serve the soup and put the spoon in her hand, "Everyone has their own mission, and parting is inevitable. He is the prince of Xiliang, and he has a heavy responsibility, so he can't let himself go." ….
Han Youning took a sip of soup and smiled helplessly, "It's because I'm too greedy, I always want to bring all my relatives together and never be separated again."
But in fact, even if the relatives are alive, everyone is very busy, and they haven't seen each other for a long time.
Zhao Chengyuan stroked her cheeks, she had lost all her relatives and had been alone for three years, so she was afraid of the taste of loneliness.
"I'll come with you when you want to meet. Let's eat well."
"Hmm."
Han Youning nested in the small courtyard, waiting for news from King Xiliang.
Zhao Chengyuan really went to the Great Snow Mountain to look for the thousand-year-old snow lotus.
Han Jun complained to his son, "King Jin also said that if King Xiliang refused to withdraw his troops, he would be killed on the top of Cangyuan Mountain. He is the only one who can kill the King of Xiliang, and there is barely a Su Bai
, but one of them went to look for snow lotus, and the other ate and drank all day long, so who will kill King Xiliang?"
Han Sixing guessed, "Maybe the prince listened to what Luo Fuzhang said, and was sure that King Xiliang would definitely make a truce?"
Han Jun snorted coldly, "He finally explained to his father-in-law before leaving."
With dissatisfaction with his son-in-law, Han Jun went to the valley to have a drink with his brother-in-law, but found that the valley was empty, as if no one had ever come.
Han Jun stood there, and General Ghostface was gone?
How could he be sure that the king of Xiliang would make a truce?
Ten days later, the scouts came to report that Xiliang had withdrawn his troops from Liuze, and the 180,000 troops had been completely withdrawn.
A few days later, news also came from the border city and Cizhou and other places, and all the Xiliang troops outside the city were evacuated.
Han Youning was overjoyed, and stared at it every day with a rabbit jade pendant, hoping to see something different from it.
She quietly instructed Ye Chang and asked him to tell the porter that if someone came to look for her, no matter who it was, she must bring it in.
Ye Chang's brain made up the princess because she was looking forward to Luo Fuzhang coming to see her in disguise, so she was so sneaky.
Alas, it's really Luo Fuzhang who is so good-looking, and his temper is so good...... You can't blame the princess.
He was at war between heaven and man loyal to the prince or the princess, and finally resolutely went to the gatehouse and stared at it every day.
Anyway, the prince is not here, so what's the harm in seeing him?
Su Bai's point was different from Ye Chang's, he had long been curious about the princess's jade pendant, and he inquired from time to time.
"What's the mystery in this jade pendant?"
"It needs to be packed in a box made by Zuzhen, but it looks like ...... What are you guarding against?"
"Why does the princess keep staring at it these days? What's the chance?"
Han Youning was annoyed by him.
This idle man is actually the most shrewd and difficult to deal with.
She said lightly, "Since you are so smart and capable, I plan to let the prince discuss with the Invincible Dao Elder and buy you for another ten years."
Su Bai's whole person was suddenly bad.
"I don't ask!"
Zhao Chengyuan is back.
He smiled and handed the box in his hand to Han Youning, "Open it and take a look."
Han Youning opened it, and there were two snow lotuses, one large and one small, beautiful and holy, exuding a quiet fragrance.
She was immediately attracted by the aroma.
Although she had been in contact with Snow Lotus before, it was the first time she had seen it so fresh and so huge, "How old is this Snow Lotus?"
"There are always five or six hundred years of greatness. The small ones must be more than a hundred years old." Zhao Chengyuan said with a smile, "Go back and let Master Xuanzhi make you a pill, which has the effect of nourishing and removing poison."
"The prince really came to me?"
Zhao Chengyuan smiled, "Naturally. Even if it's an excuse, it's going to be flawless. Whether it is Lu Yushi or the emperor's investigation, there are no errors or omissions. It just so happens that you've been losing a lot of money lately, so it's time to take care of yourself. And the fake death pill will definitely have a loss to the body, and it is inevitable that there will be residual poison, and it is also good to clear the poison."
