Chapter 233 Fu Da leaves

This imperial edict gave everyone a fright.

Especially the lark.

Bai Ling held the imperial edict, which should have been placed on the altar, in her palm and rubbed it carefully for a long time.

"Sister, I never thought there would be such a day!"

Fu Da agreed, holding the sword.

"Mr. Pei has been promoted to the position of Tongzhiyuanshi, and you have also become the distinguished county lord of Daye. Double happiness has come to us, congratulations!"

Chen Shiyi found it rare to hear Fu Da actually say such meaningless words of congratulations!

"I'm leaving now."

Fu Da's voice was dull and contained an inexplicable sense of sadness.

All three of them were shocked.

Chen Shiyi couldn't help but ask.

"Where are you going?"

"You're married, and you'll both be in Kyoto in the future. Pei will arrange for someone to protect you, and I'll also do my own thing."

Chen Shiyi asked hurriedly.

"What about Bai Ling?"

Fu Da was very puzzled.

"Isn't Bai Ling following you?"

Chen Shiyi didn't know how to start the conversation, but looking at the relationship between Bailing and Fuda, it seemed that neither of them was attached to the other. Could it be that she was mistaken?

Fu Da actually doesn't like Bai Ling?

Bo Yuan, who had been silent all this time, asked softly from the side.

"Where are you going? Can we see each other again?"

Boyuan's words seemed very sad. Well, Boyuan and Fuda came to him at the same time, and they have been together for several years, so naturally they have a deep relationship.

"I don't know. I'll go anywhere. I'm a man of the world and don't like those constraints."

Chen Shiyi was very reluctant to let go, as Fu Da had spent more time with her than with Pei Luoshu.

"If you get tired of walking outside, remember to come back and see us. Our home is your home."

Fu laughed.

"Okay, I'll spend all the money you gave me, and then I'll come back to be your bodyguard and make money."

Chen Shiyi nodded.

"Then spend more. Don't be reluctant when you are out."

"Um."

He raised his eyes and looked at Bo Yuan deeply.

"I'm leaving."

After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the villa.

Bai Ling shouted from behind.

"You haven't packed yet."

Fu Da waved his hands.

"No need."

The separation has already begun before people are ready.

All good things must come to an end, and everyone has his own path to go.

I hope that he can roam freely in the world in the future, without worldly worries, fly freely like an eagle, and become a hegemon.

Before going to Beijing, Chen Shiyi sent a letter to Pei Luoshu who was far away in Kyoto.

Pei Luoshu, who received the letter, was busy with the arrangements of his house. The white pigeon landed on his shoulder, looking leisurely and at ease, with its eyes as big as green beans rolling around.

Pei Luoshu took the letter, opened it, and as he read it, he laughed in disbelief.

Since coming to the capital, Fufeng has never seen Pei Luoshu smile like this.

He quickly went over to ask.

"What's interesting, ma'am?"

"Well, Fu Da left."

The smile on Fu Feng's face suddenly stopped, and then slowly disappeared.

"Brother is gone?"

"Um."

"What's so funny about this?"

Pei Luoshu looked at the discomfort on Fufeng's face.

"You don't want him to leave either."

Fu Feng nodded.

"Sir, I agreed to lure my senior brother here because I thought he was living alone and had a hard time. Now he's gone again."

"Everyone's perceptions and ideas are always different. What you think is good may not be good for others."

Pei Luoshu continued.

"One more thing. Madam has been canonized as the county lord."

Fu Feng blinked.

"County Lord?"

"There was a naval battle near Wonju. Madam was an excellent archer. She must have made great contributions, so she was treated differently by the court."

Fu Feng smiled.

"Madam is amazing. She can make a name for herself without relying on men."

Pei Luo spoke lightly and smiled.

"She is the bravest and kindest..."

The day Chen Shiyi returned to Kyoto, it was already late autumn. When he entered Kyoto, the weather had gradually turned cooler.

She has been afraid of the cold lately, so Bailing lit the charcoal in the carriage early.

"Sister, you haven't been in good health since you were sick last time."

Chen Shiyi leaned against the wall of the carriage, lazily flipping through a book.

"I'm older now, but I'm not eighteen every year."

"Lao Qin has changed your prescription. You need to take it for at least two months. I'll come back to see if you've gotten better."

When Chen Shiyi heard the word "medicine", he was as sensitive as when he heard the word "fish".

She still has to drink it for two months. Isn't this going to kill her?

It's okay that the medicine tastes bitter, but the problem is that it's not pure bitterness. It's bitterness mixed with other various flavors. After drinking it, you can't eat for the whole day.

Also traveling with us were people from the Duwei Mansion. There were many people who needed to be commended for this naval battle.

After returning to Kyoto, before she had the chance to look for Pei Luoshu, she was told by the captain to go to the palace first.

The imperial palace.

The Qinzheng Hall is majestic and magnificent.

Chen Shiyi was wearing a purple-red satin palace gown with gold embroidery, her hair was tied up high, and she wore a purple and gold hairpin, making her look dignified and noble. She followed behind the captain, her hands clasped, her shoulders straight, her face as calm as water, a slight smile on her lips, and she walked step by step into this palace where only men had appeared.

She stood up after bowing with everyone else.

I heard a deep and gentle voice coming from above.

"Where is the Yongyi County Lord?"

Chen Shiyi immediately bowed in return.

"The minister is here."

"You look so familiar, are you the cousin from Doctor Yushi's mansion?"

"That's right, my lady."

"Haha, Lao Hu, you are an old man, you taught well, he is a good kid."

Mr. Hu said with a smile.

“She’s really good.”

"This naval battle was extremely heroic, fierce and decisive. He did not care about his own life and death and faced the enemy head-on. In order to prevent the enemy from escaping, he used the ship he had bought with all his wealth to ram the enemy's ship. This act is worthy of a man and should be commended."

"Come, I will reward you with a thousand ounces of gold, a jade ruyi, and a fief of a thousand households, and you will be exempted from the kowtow."

"Your Majesty, I thank you."

As Chen Shiyi saluted, he raised his eyes, looked at Pei Luoshu standing in the line of officials, and blinked.

Pei Luoshu lowered his head slowly and pursed his lips to hide the smile that was about to overflow.

"It is said that you have discovered a new sea route?"

"Reporting to His Majesty, that's right. After 32 days of sailing, we arrived at another small country called Vasati. This country is rich in colored glass, which the locals use to make roofs to protect against poisonous insects and wild beasts. I have recorded what I saw and heard in the local area in a book for Your Majesty to read."

"The royal family of Vasati specifically instructed the ministers to present the extremely precious blood coral to His Majesty as a token of friendship between the two countries."

After saying this, he sent someone to carry the blood-red coral that had been prepared long ago to the Qinzheng Hall.

The blood-red coral, more than one meter high, dazzled the eyes of everyone in the court the moment the red cloth was torn open.

The blood-red color surges like flowing light, and the crystal clear stars outside the coral are like fireflies flying in the blood-red sky, twinkling and extremely gorgeous.
