"The first glass of wine, to the warriors who died against the invasion of the Rong Kingdom!"

In a solemn silence, the emperor poured a glass of wine on the ground.

The crowd fell silent in an instant, and the emperor's majestic voice reached the corner tower, and Xiao Fuyuan and the others heard it clearly.

People who have not experienced the war are infected by the atmosphere, not to mention that Bai Dazhuang and Bai Erzhuang have personally participated in resisting the Rong State's invasion of Ningcheng, and their eyes are even red.

"Second brother, did you go to see Xu Damao's grandmother before you came back?"

Bai Dazhuang remembered Xu Damao, who died at the border, the soldier with a round face and a childish smile.

When he returned home, he found Xu Damao's grandmother and promised to provide for Xu Damao's grandmother.

Originally, before coming to the capital, I wanted to take Xu Damao's grandmother to the capital together.

But the old lady said that she was old and wanted to stay at home, saying that she was afraid that she would leave and Da Mao would not find her way home.

He bought land for Mrs. Xu, built a new yard, and entrusted her to the care of the village chief and neighbors.

Before he came to Beijing, he also told Bai Erzhuang to remember to go and see Mrs. Xu.

"Go, I went to Brother Sledgehammer once after you left, and I also went to see it once before coming to the capital. The old lady is strong, able to eat and sleep, and the people in the village take good care of her, and I asked other teachers and students from the private school to visit her every ten days before I came."

Bai Erzhuang said that Xu Damao's grandmother was arranged very properly.

Bai Dazhuang was relieved.

"Second cup of wine, toast the people of our borders."

Bai Dazhuang nodded: "The people on the border have been miserable all these years, and I only hope that they can live well from now on."

Xiao Fuyuan answered, "Avoid the pain of war."

Bai Dazhuang touched the bow on his sister's head, looking pleased.

My sister speaks the most, and with my sister's words, the people of Ningcheng can usher in peace and tranquility.

His eyes fell on Helian Liang in the prisoner car, and he shook his head slightly.

Qiu Niang is not here, I don't know how Qiu Niang will feel when she sees her brother being escorted into Beijing as a prisoner.

At this time, the Bai family already knew that Qiu Niang's true identity was the princess of Rongguo, and she came to Beijing to see her brother.

"The third glass of wine, to the returning Northwest soldiers."

The emperor's voice just fell.

The guards were surging for a while, and soon each Northwest soldier had an extra bowl of wine in his hand.

Xiao Fuyuan saw the emperor's cousin raise his wine glass and drink it all.

In an instant, the Northwest soldiers cheered! Hunting with the banner waving!

Qiu Niang hid in the cheering crowd in the capital, and she immediately recognized her brother Helian Liang among the many captives.

It's not that his brother hasn't changed compared to when he was a child, but among the many captives, only Helian Liang's eyes are black.

It was these eyes that made their brother and sister bullied since they were children in the royal family of Rongguo.

As the former commander of Rong Guo, Helian Liang was treated better than other prisoners of war, and he was held in solitary confinement in a prison car.

And the clothes are very clean.

It seems that although he was a prisoner, the Northwest Army still gave him the dignity of the commander of the Rong State.

Having lived in a brutal competitive environment since he was a child, he has developed an alert nature, even if he becomes a prisoner, he still retains this alertness. Helian Liang felt the gaze that fell on him, and he turned his head like a leopard and looked towards the cheering crowd.

There was a woman in green in the crowd, standing extremely quiet, in stark contrast to the cheering crowd around her.

Even with a hat, Helian Liang could feel her gaze.

The gaze was familiar, like a long-forgotten gaze from a mother.

……

The ceremony lasted until the sun set in the west.

The fourth elder of the Bai family announced the disposal of prisoners of war on behalf of the emperor, and put those low-level soldiers back to the border to open up wasteland.

It is also the hope that they will have land and houses, and no longer live by looting as they once did.

For those generals and part of the soldiers who surrendered, regrouped

to the North-Western Army.

And those captured princes of Rong did not announce their disposition.

Xiao Fuyuan knew that this was a tricky problem, especially Helian Liang, even if the emperor's cousin wanted to show Xia Guo's generosity, he would not easily put him back.

Letting him go is equivalent to letting the tiger go back to the mountain.

In fact, regarding the arrangement of Helian Liang, the imperial court set off a big discussion.

Some advocated that he be cut off.

Some advocated that he be imprisoned in the capital.

Of course, these discussions are no longer a secret, not only in the last dynasty, but also in the teahouses and Taixue in the capital, and the ordinary people in the streets and alleys are also discussing.

It seems that how to deal with Helian Liang, everyone in the capital is responsible, and everyone has to make suggestions.

But whether Helian Liang was cut or imprisoned, it was not a matter of concern to the Bai family at this time.

The Bai family is immersed in the joy of the fifth child's homecoming.

I thought that the fifth brother would not be able to go home until very late, but I didn't expect Xiao Fuyuan and the fifth brother to arrive at home as soon as they arrived home for a cup of tea.

It turned out that the emperor thought that many soldiers were from the capital, and they must be in a hurry to see their families when they arrived in the capital, so he postponed the banquet that was originally scheduled to reward the three armies, and let everyone go home to reunite with their relatives first.

Bai Zhaomei arranged the captives properly and kept going home.

Also following Bai Panmei back were Zhao Xiaogui, Hanwa and other young men from Shenshu Village.

Village Chief Zhao burst into tears when he saw his grandson, and pulled Zhao Xiaogui to the backyard of the Bai family to talk about himself.

And Hanwa Gangzi and others were taken by Mother Zhu to the side hospital to rest temporarily.

Wu Chaojing didn't know that he was old

Father and stepmother came to the capital, and as soon as they arrived at the door of Bai's house, they were intercepted by Bai Dazhuang and sent to the Xu family's house on the next two streets.

"Sister!"

Bai Zhaomei came to the upper room, and before she took off her armor, she hurriedly finished saluting her grandmother's parents, so she held Xiao Fuyuan in her arms and lifted it up.

The maid and the maid had already heard of the name and feat of the fifth child, and it was the first time they saw the fifth child, so they put down their work and rushed to see the excitement.

"Sister, do you miss the fifth brother?" Bai Zhaomei showed a mouthful of white teeth.

"I thought!" Xiao Fuyuan said.

"Fifth brother brought you something good."

After speaking, he whistled outside, and a white fox with snow-white fur swooped in.

The old lady Bai and the others were taken aback.

The white fox showed a pair of fangs and bared a few times.

"Snowball." Xiao Fuyuan saw that the white fox was like a snowball, and gave it a new name.

The white fox whined, walked to Xiao Fuyuan's heels and rubbed it, lowered his head and fell down obediently.

Xiao Fuyuan touched the white fox and was very satisfied.

The whole family was very curious about this snow-white white fox, and when they saw that it was not hurting, they gathered around it.

"Xiaobai rescued me in the heavy snow and showed me the way...... I thought it was sent by my sister to save me, and I brought it to my sister, and my sister called it Snowball, and it will be Snowball from now on." Bai Panmei smiled and gave it to Xiao
