Emperor Dong Ling was overjoyed: "Jiu'er is back!"
Minister Chen quickly bowed and said, "I greet the princess!"
"Minister Chen, please excuse me!"
Emperor Dong Ling hugged the little guy and said, "Are you tired? What would you like to eat for lunch?"
Without waiting for Nangong Jiu to speak.
Emperor Dongling waved his hand at Minister Chen and continued, "Grandfather, I will have someone go to the Imperial Kitchen and prepare lunch and send it to Kunning Palace."
After giving orders for food, Emperor Dongling asked about some follow-up matters in the army.
Nangong Jiu explained in detail the matter of letting the two deputy generals take charge of military affairs temporarily and giving them one month's salary.
Emperor Dongling held the little guy tightly in his arms.
"You did a great job, even your grandfather didn't think it through as well as you did.
Come, let the Emperor take you to see the gold, silver, and jewelry confiscated from the Guo family. They are all yours."
Nangong Jiu quickly refused: "Don't give it to me, just put it into the national treasury, I have silver."
"You contributed a lot of money to the disaster relief in Jing County and the military salaries.
If you refuse again this time, the Emperor will be unhappy.
If you hadn't discovered the remnants of the previous dynasty, who knows how much trouble would have been caused. Their property and silver should have been rewarded to you."
Nangong Jiu had no choice but to agree.
"That's fine, I have food, clothes, and shelter, and I don't need much money. If I need it someday, I can just give it out."
Emperor Dongling happily brought Nangong Jiu to the private vault and pointed at several piles of gold, silver and jewelry.
"Look, these are what we brought back from the Guo family. They are all yours. You can use them as you please."
"Thank you, Grandfather!"
Nangong Jiu put the things into his small pocket.
A young eunuch came to report: "Your Majesty, Princess, lunch has been served in Kunning Palace. Her Majesty said that it's cold and the food will get cold easily, so please go ahead."
"Okay, I'll be right there."
In the afternoon, Nangong Jiucai returned to the general's residence with little Wang Xiaoxing and a large bag of food.
"Great-grandfather, grandfather, grandmother...
Daddy, Mommy, I'm back!"
"Jiu'er!"
"younger sister!"
The whole family gathered around, and Nangong Yunxue hugged Nangong Jiu into her arms.
"I'm glad you're okay, I'm glad you're back!"
"Mother, I'm sorry to have worried you!"
"It's okay. Mother knows you're a capable child. She's only worried because you're facing the remnants of the previous dynasty and two hundred thousand soldiers."
"A mother worries about her child even when he is thousands of miles away. I am your daughter, so it is normal for you to worry.
However, I am not an ordinary child. I have cultivation and ability. It is no exaggeration to say that I can make clouds and rain with a flip of my hand. You can rest assured!"
Nangong Yunxue smiled and nodded: "That's right!
Not long after you were born, you were able to strike the Xue family with lightning. You are indeed a child with great ability. Mother will try her best to trust you in the future."
The mother and daughter were affectionate for a long time.
Nangong Jiu greeted the elders one by one, and everyone calmed down and listened to her talk about her experience of the trip.
"Two of Guo Feng's secret guards managed to escape and tried to burn us to death while we were sleeping, but they were severely beaten by Xiao Wang Xiaoxing.
The two angry lieutenants even retaliated with tooth for tooth, burning and scorching..."
When Nangong Jiu talked about paying the soldiers one month's salary, Nangong Honglie and his sons looked at each other and gave a thumbs up.
"I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful.
The soldiers are all passionate men. They will be loyal to whoever treats them well, trusts and respects them.
From now on, those 200,000 soldiers will definitely be the loyal guards of Dongling!"
Nangong Jiu smiled and nodded: "They are indeed great!"
That night, a sumptuous dinner was served at the general's mansion.
Nangong Honglie personally poured fruit wine for the whole family, and even Nangong Jiu got a few drops.
Nangong Honglie raised his glass happily.
"Come on, our Jiuer has made another contribution to Dongling. Cheers!"
"cheers!"
The old man and the old lady were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
"Green smoke is rising from the ancestral tombs of my Nangong family. Having such outstanding descendants, I would wake up laughing even in my sleep!
Tomorrow, we must burn incense and pray to our ancestors again, so that they can be happy in the afterlife."
Nangong Jiu looked at his family, nodded and laughed foolishly.
Nangong Jiu's room.
After dinner, Nangong Jiu took Xiao Wang and Xiao Xing back to the side room.
"Next, besides spending time with our families, we must focus on cultivation.
We have refined so many inner pills before, but we haven't yet consolidated our foundation. I must practice hard and strive for a breakthrough as soon as possible to restore my cultivation to 60%."
Xiao Wang nodded: "If Your Majesty's cultivation level recovers to 60%, then you will have few rivals in the Three Realms except for the five people."
Nangong Jiu smiled and said, "Which five people? Tell me about them."
"The Heavenly Dao transformed into human form, your father and mother, as well as the Demon Lord and the High Priest of the Demon Realm."
Xiao Xing corrected him maturely, "Strictly speaking, when you were at 50% of your cultivation, the five people he mentioned could fight you to a draw.
But at 60% cultivation, if you really want to argue, I'm afraid only one person can match you."
"You mean the Way of Heaven?"
"yes!"
Nangong Jiu smiled and said, "You are all wrong. The power of the Heavenly Dao is unfathomable, and we have only glimpsed a little of it.
Even when I reach full power, I cannot say that I can be on par with him.
He is the law of heaven and earth, and no one can surpass him.
He's like the man behind the scenes in a family, seemingly doing nothing, but if anyone disobeys, he'll teach them a lesson."
Little Wang came forward and said, "Your Majesty, you were so naughty when you were little. Did you ever get punished by the Heavenly Dao?"
