Baili Hua said in a sonorous and powerful voice: "We have lived up to the emperor's high expectations!"
As he spoke, he clasped his hands together and gave a military salute to the emperor and empress.
The moment Baili Hua lowered his head, Emperor Mingxi caught a glimpse of the white hair on his head. His eyes immediately sore and he called out, "Uncle..."
The empress pulled Emperor Mingxi's sleeve to remind him of the emperor's majesty.
Xia Zhengqi is a kind-hearted person with a low tear point, but as the emperor of Daxia, it is definitely inappropriate for him to cry at every turn.
Xia Zhengqi realized that he had lost his composure, pursed his lower lips hard, and forced back the tears.
At this time, Xiao Tiehan tightly grasped Xia Zhengqi's hand and looked at him earnestly, "Your Majesty, this Khan is grateful to you!"
"If it weren't for the Emperor's decisive decision over two years ago, the current situation in the Northern Frontier would be unimaginable."
Xia Miaoyuan was so moved by the scene in front of her that she burst into tears.
"Yes, if Dad hadn't defied all odds and issued an order to send troops to aid the Xiao Lin tribe, then today, the Xiao family, and even the entire Xiao Lin tribe, would no longer exist."
[I'm afraid the entire northern border is now dominated by the Dawa tribe.]
[The Xiao family finally managed to survive a life-or-death crisis.]
[The Xiao family finally survived, and not only survived, but also lived well.]
The Xiao family escaped the utter annihilation of the original book. Perhaps this foreshadows that in this life, the cannon fodder in the original book can reverse their predetermined fate as long as they stand up and fight with all their might.
When the queen heard her daughter's words, she was overwhelmed with emotions and hot tears rolled down her cheeks.
The queen realized that she had lost her composure and hurriedly turned her face away.
At this moment, the Second Prince stepped forward and took the Queen's arm, "Mother, look, Chengnian is back safely!"
Originally, the second prince wanted to divert the queen's attention. After all, the queen cared most about maintaining the demeanor of a mother of a country on critical occasions. The second prince was afraid that she would lose her composure and regret it afterwards.
Unexpectedly, when the Second Prince said this, the Queen saw his skin, which had become darker due to the wind and sand of the northern border, and his eyes, which had lost their childishness due to the weathering of the battlefield. Instead of stopping her tears, they flowed even more violently.
Seeing this, Xia Zhengqi couldn't help but let out the tears that he had just held back.
The Queen and Xia Zhengqi looked at each other, and seeing the other's loss of composure, they couldn't help but curl up the corners of their mouths, and both wanted to take the opportunity to laugh at each other.
Queen: You crybaby!
Emperor Mingxi: How dare you say that to me? You just couldn't hold back your tears! Let's not laugh at each other!
Xia Miaoyuan was originally moved to tears, but after catching the emperor and empress's little movements, she felt her face getting a little hot.
[No way, Daddy and Mommy, what are you doing? ]
[This is not a shocking and emotionally charged scene. How could you do this?]
[In front of all the soldiers, exchanging glances, openly showing off their affection? ]
【Ahhh! I can’t bear to watch this! I can’t bear to watch this!】
【Can you guys please pay attention! 】
The Crown Prince, the Second Prince, Xiao Tiehan, and Baili Hua who were present at the scene could not help but find it funny when they heard these words. Their eyes, which were originally glistening with tears, suddenly flashed with the joy of eating melons.
The emperor and empress felt their faces getting hot and they hurriedly restrained themselves.
When the emperor and empress looked up again, they found that the soldiers behind them were looking at them eagerly.
Baili Hua turned around to look at the soldiers behind him and said to Emperor Mingxi, "Your Majesty, please say a few words to the soldiers!"
"For over two years, our soldiers have fought bloody battles in the northern border, always keeping Daxia and you, the Emperor, in mind!"
"Many times, when the soldiers encountered difficulties, they persevered by remembering the words you gave them when they set out on the expedition."
Emperor Mingxi nodded and waved to Debao. Debao immediately understood and ordered the eunuch to quickly move a simple wooden platform over.
Emperor Mingxi, supported by Debao, climbed onto the platform.
In an instant, all the soldiers below fell silent, and the music of the musicians nearby also stopped.
In a corner farther from the platform, there were many ordinary people watching the fun, crowded together, looking up.
At this time, they all consciously calmed down.
In the crowd, there was a tall, handsome middle-aged man who stood out among the ordinary people.
This person was Liang Chaozong, who was wearing ordinary people's clothes.
Like the people around him, he looked intently towards the platform.
At this moment, Emperor Mingxi's face was filled with solemnity and seriousness. He opened his throat and said in a deep voice: "Soldiers of Daxia!"
"I am here to welcome you back on your triumphant return on behalf of the entire Great Xia!"
"You are the heroes of Daxia, you are true warriors!"
"You have supreme glory!"
"Long live the soldiers of Daxia!"
This time, Emperor Mingxi shouted with all his strength, and his deep voice was carried far away by the wind.
The soldiers listened with great enthusiasm, and pride and emotion flashed on their faces.
"Long live Daxia! Long live the emperor!" a young general shouted loudly.
Immediately afterwards, thousands of soldiers below shouted in unison: "Long live Daxia! Long live the emperor!"
Xia Miaoyuan was sitting on the prince's horse, and felt that his small body was instantly swallowed up by the sound waves.
The huge shouting came like a tidal wave.
The queen stood on the ground and felt the ground shaking.
Liang Chaozong mixed in the crowd and pretended to follow the crowd, shouting a few times, but the malice in his eyes could not be concealed.
The shouting continued for a long time until Emperor Mingxi waved his hand to the audience, and the shouting gradually stopped.
"Soldiers!" Emperor Mingxi continued with tears in his eyes.
"For more than two years, some people have been questioning this northern expedition, saying it was an unjust war."
"But I believe that every soldier who participated in the Northern Expedition would disagree with this statement!"
"The situation in Northern Xinjiang is clear. Today, we will not take the initiative to attack. Instead, we will assist the Xiao Lin tribe, with whom we are allies, in unifying Northern Xinjiang."
"One day, those warlike tribes that are hostile to Daxia will surely unify the northern border."
"By then, Daxia will face a huge enemy."
"Therefore, this northern expedition is for the sake of Daxia's stability for the next few decades, or even hundreds of years."
"I swear here today that we in Great Xia will never fight an unjust war!"
"But we in Great Xia have never feared the threats from any powerful country!"
When Emperor Mingxi said this, he was so excited that he couldn't control himself.
