Chapter 375 She is the Queen
Deng Youning hugged him and lifted his loose hair, only to find that his entire back was burned by fire, it was a horrible sight.
Everyone stepped forward as quickly as possible and took them back to the city to rest.
General Han and Lu Zhaoye both left behind a group of people to guard the battlefield. If they found any members of the Zhu family who were lucky enough to escape from the fire, they would chase them to the ends of the earth to wipe them out.
The fire outside Cangzhou City burned for three days and three nights.
There were indeed people with great martial arts skills and good luck who managed to escape from the thick fog and fire, but they could not escape the encirclement and suppression of the Three Kingdoms soldiers.
*
Three days later.
Li Tianzhuo's wounds were treated with medicine and he regained consciousness, but he was still unable to get out of bed.
Deng Youning accompanied him day and night.
Han Xian's mourning hall had been prepared for several days, and everyone came to say goodbye to him one by one.
But this is Nan Yin's territory after all, and Han Xian's body cannot be buried here.
General Han wanted him to return to his hometown, so he decided to take his coffin back to Dongji for burial today.
When the war was over, naturally, the Han army was also taken away by them.
But Deng Yan'an and Jun Wenying stayed with Deng Youning.
This is Jun Wenying's first time in Nanxin, and she wants to have a good time.
Deng Youning and Li Tianzhuo promised them that they would take them out to play after Li Tianzhuo's injury healed and he returned to Yuncheng.
In the morning, General Han had just left, and in the afternoon, Lu Zhaoye also came to say goodbye to them.
Since Li Tianzhuo is fine and all members of the Zhu family have been killed, the Xilei Kingdom cannot be without a king for a day, so Lu Zhaoye has to go back and inherit his cousin's throne.
He is one of the few talented people among the remaining bloodline of the Xilei royal family.
He was also the heir to the Prince Su who should have been sitting firmly on the throne, so naturally, everyone supported him to succeed to the throne.
"Next time we meet, I can't call you Mr. Lu. You have to call you Emperor Xilei." Deng Youning patted his shoulder and said playfully.
"Ningning, would you like to consider coming to Xilei and being my queen? Our Xilei is more prosperous than his Nanxin!" Lu Zhaoye tried to steal Li Tianzhuo's wife in front of him.
Li Tianzhuo, who was lying on the bed and unable to get out, coughed twice with a gloomy face.
Lu Zhaoye restrained himself a lot, but still said harsh words:
"Emperor Nanxin, if I knew that you treated Ningning badly, I would tear up the contract and send troops to Nanxin to take her away from you."
Li Tianzhuo: ...
Why does he feel a little dangerous?
Deng Youning glared at Lu Zhaoye unhappily and told him to stop being angry at Li Tianzhuo, the jealous guy.
"Don't worry, I won't be on the throne of Nanxin for long."
"If Ningning wants to be the queen, I can give her the kingdom. If Ningning wants to enjoy the world, I can travel the world for her."
“Lu Zhaoye, can you?”
Li Tianzhuo raised his eyebrows and asked provocatively, as if he was declaring his sovereignty to him.
After the civil strife caused by General Zhu, Xilei had to deal with countless things, and it would be impossible to restore its previous strength and prosperity in the short term, or even within a few years.
The pressure left on Lu Zhaoye was as huge as a mountain.
He indeed did not have as much freedom as Li Tianzhuo. He could not be as willful as Li Tianzhuo and ignore the country and its people.
He sighed helplessly, "Alas, it seems that I, Lu Zhaoye, have lost convincingly on Ning Ning's question."
Li Tianzhuo nodded narcissistically.
Deng Yanan, who was watching the noisy quarrel, felt as if an arrow had pierced his heart. He said, "Whether it is Nanxin or Xilei, they are not as good as our Dongji. We have our own princess in Dongji, and we love her ourselves!"
Li Tianzhuo, Lu Zhaoye: ...
What should I do? I really can’t afford to offend this person!
"Your Majesty, it's getting late. If you don't leave now, you won't reach the imperial city before dark." The eunuch beside Lu Zhaoye urged.
Lu Zhaoye nodded at him and performed the martial arts salute to Deng Youning, Li Tianzhuo, Deng Yan'an and Jun Wenying.
Different nationalities, only talk about the world!
"Green mountains and clear waters are always there for us. When you have free time, don't forget to visit my Xilei Imperial City." He invited warmly.
Including Li Tianzhuo who was lying on the bed, everyone bowed to him.
After seeing off Lu Zhaoye and other Western Frontier troops, the Nanxin Army cleaned and rebuilt the entire Cangzhou City and its surroundings and welcomed back the people in the city.
Half a month later, Li Tianzhuo's injuries were almost healed, and everyone returned triumphantly with the mighty Nanqin army and rushed to Yuncheng.
Along the way, the people lined the streets to welcome him. They admired their young emperor who had just won a victory after ascending the throne.
Of course, the most important thing is his social skills. This Dongji son-in-law is really tough.
During this expedition, Nanxin lost less than 50,000 troops, and Dongji lost even less. This also allowed all the court officials to see Li Tianzhuo's various strengths, and they admired him very much as an emperor.
On the day they returned to the city, King Yi, along with all the civil and military officials and little Li Shen, gathered at the city gate to welcome them.
Li Tianzhuo was still wearing heavy silver armor, and he was riding side by side with Deng Youning, who was also wearing armor and a red dress.
Deng Yan'an and Jun Wenying followed them in the carriage.
"Brother An, Yuncheng is not bad compared to our capital city!"
"Before, you always said you were not as good as us. You just didn't want Ying'er to come, right?"
Jun Wenying lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out. Many places looked new, as if they were newly built or renovated.
Deng Yan'an also looked outside.
He was full of questions. How come Yuncheng had changed so much in less than half a year since he last came back?
Those newly opened shops, stalls, brothels and taverns all have a strong Eastern flavor.
Could it be that the young emperor Li Tianzhuo had built it in order to please Princess Dongji’s sister?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
He had already accepted Li Tianzhuo as his brother-in-law.
"Today, I have returned victoriously. I have won a great victory against the Western Empire and signed a 100-year peace agreement with the Western Empire. All this was thanks to the help of the Princess of the Eastern Empire who is by my side."
"From today on, whenever you see Princess Dongji in my country of Nanxin, it is as if I am here in person."
Even when facing his own people, Li Tianzhuo gave all the credit to Deng Youning, allowing her to enjoy the worship of all the people and the love of the people.
Deng Youning shook her head at him, signaling him not to go too far.
The next second, Li Tianzhuo grabbed the reins of Deng Youning's horse and pulled her towards him. When they were close enough, he put his arms around Deng Youning's shoulders and kissed her at the city gate in front of all the people in the city.
Everyone: ...
Jun Wenying who saw this scene:!
"Brother Xiao'an, look, Master Li is treating Ningning..."
She quickly covered her eyes, looking as if she couldn't bear to see anything inappropriate.
Jun Wenying smiled softly at him, took her into his arms, and kissed her lips domineeringly.
Deng Youning and Li Tianzhuo were outside, kissing in front of everyone in the city.
The two of them kissed secretly while sitting in the carriage.
The whole street seemed to be filled with the smell of sugar, and the sweetness in the air was embodied at this moment.
Even Yi Wang, who was watching, forgot to cover little Li Shen's eyes.
Everyone seemed to be enjoying it.
