Large numbers of troops passed through the area without any obstruction.
The two children showed no discomfort whatsoever from the bumpy journey and sleeping outdoors; on the contrary, they were full of energy every day, as if they were on a picnic.
As for Li Yunyan, her daily life was no different from before.
Fu Luo seized every opportunity to take her out for pleasure, letting heaven and earth witness their inseparable love.
Sometimes, fearing that he was overexerting himself, Li Yunyan would divide the tonic pills in two and give them to both of them to prevent him from dying suddenly.
Under this virtuous cycle, Fu Luo's health improved more and more...
It's really worrying.
At the same time, she also kept an eye on what was happening in the capital.
After watching the system's video, she knew that the situation in the capital was now settled, and Meng Qingye was already on his way to pick her up.
Su Ting'an, meanwhile, stayed in the capital to manage the mess in the palace, persuade the officials, and await her return.
Finally, one day, a scout came galloping from afar.
His expression was tense. "Your Majesty! A large army is approaching three kilometers ahead, and it looks like there are tens of thousands of them!"
Fu Luoyouqi's expression hardened.
The carriage window was open.
A gentle yet calm voice came through, "Aqi, he should be here to pick me up!"
"he?"
Fu Luoyou turned his head. "Who?"
Li Yunyan waved for the scouts to leave.
The scout glanced at Fu Luoyouqi, then whipped his horse and ran off.
Li Yunyan looked at him and said, "The one who came to pick me up should be Meng Qingye, the General Who Conquers the North of Yuanxia Kingdom!"
Fu Luoyouqi's expression changed drastically.
The name of the General Who Conquers the North is renowned far and wide; how could he not know it? Several years ago, in the battle against the Yuanxia Kingdom, it was the General Who Conquers the North who led the army to defeat the Beishuo Kingdom!
He also knew that the General Who Conquers the North was no longer the same person he used to be, and his reputation was much greater than it had been a few years ago! If he were to face him, he didn't know if he would have any chance of winning!
No! What Yanyan just said was—
catch?
He turned his head, a hint of uncertainty in his voice, "The General Who Conquers the North, is he one of your men?"
Li Yunyan nodded with a smile, "It's a long story, but in short, I saved his life, and everything he's doing now is to bring me back!"
It's somewhat unbelievable that Fu Luo has a set timeframe.
His scouts had reported that Yuanxia was in turmoil, and that the General Who Conquers the North, despite holding a large army, was watching the various forces vie for power without taking any action or joining any side. He found this rather strange.
The General Who Conquers the North now wields so much military power that he could directly rebel and declare himself emperor! Yet all he's doing is to bring back the princess he once knew?
Looking at Li Yunyan's bright smiling face, a sense of panic inexplicably flashed through his heart.
He placed his large, strong hand on her small hand that was gripping the window frame, and without warning, Fu Luoyouqi said, "Yanyan, you are mine!"
Li Yunyan smiled sweetly at him, "Of course!"
A few minutes later, a herd of fine horses came galloping up from ahead.
Upon hearing that the army of the Northern Shuo Kingdom was ahead, Meng Qingye immediately spurred his horse and galloped ahead with a few men.
His princess has returned!
Fu Luoyouqi raised his hand high, signaling the army to wait in place. He also tightened the reins, his eyes fixed intently on the figures in the distance.
He finally understood why the large army of Beishuo Kingdom had entered Yuanxia without encountering any obstacles and had a smooth journey.
It turns out he already knew they were coming!
He offered no resistance, but instead rubbed his hands together, ready to meet them!
He had expected a fierce battle upon leading his army here, but he hadn't anticipated that Yanyan had already eliminated all obstacles in the Yuanxia Kingdom...
Meng Qingye stopped in front of them, dismounted, and immediately knelt down.
A clear voice called out, "Your subordinate, Meng Qingye, respectfully welcomes Princess Luo Qing home!"
The guards following behind him also dismounted, "Welcome Princess Luo Qing home!"
Li Yunyan lifted the carriage curtain and looked at the dashing young general with a look of satisfaction on her face.
"General Meng, you really did it!"
Hearing that long-lost clear and beautiful voice, Meng Qingye felt a surge of emotion welling up in his eyes.
His eyes lifted for a moment before lowering again, and he replied in a trembling voice, "Your subordinate has not failed the princess's trust and has come to take her home!"
Li Yunyan said calmly, "Get up! Let's continue on our way!"
"yes!"
Meng Qingye stood up and looked at Fu Luoyouqi, who was sitting on horseback in full military uniform.
We cup our hands in greeting: "Greetings, Brother King of Beishuo!"
Fu Luo squinted. "King of Beishuo is King of Beishuo, what's the point of adding 'Big Brother'?"
He doesn't have such an annoying younger brother!
Yes, Fu Luo felt disgusted the moment she saw Meng Qingye!
He grunted, "General Zhengbei, how have you been?"
Meng Qingye, however, seemed oblivious to the wariness in his eyes. After all, he was the princess's husband, and he should treat him with respect.
He stood tall and straight, seemingly oblivious to the tens of thousands of soldiers before him, and replied in a casual tone, "Thank you for your concern, Brother King of Beishuo. We are all doing well!"
us?
What kind of riddle are they playing now?
Meng Qingye mounted his horse. "Once you're in Yuanxia Kingdom, you're a guest. Brother King of Beishuo, welcome!"
After saying that, he gently flicked his whip, leading the procession like a master.
When the two armies met, the atmosphere was strangely harmonious.
Meng Qingye stayed with them and refused to leave. When they set up camp that night, he said he wanted to pay his respects to the princess.
It wasn't an unreasonable request, so Li Yunyan agreed.
Fu Luo was indignant, but he was helpless in the face of such a reasonable request.
