Chapter 592 Shock and Surprise
With the help of Xiao Zhou and Yan Ning, Shabei Pass could not be captured for a long time.
They held out until reinforcements arrived, and the situation at Shabei Pass was instantly reversed.
Of the 100,000 Northern Rong soldiers, only more than 30,000 were killed, and even Yelu Wu was beheaded.
This victory shocked the emperor.
Both officials and people in the Great Yan Dynasty were encouraged.
Meanwhile, the Northern Rong requested a truce and were more than willing to cede land.
In this way, the Great Yan Dynasty is in an absolutely proactive position and can put forward many conditions to the Northern Rong.
This war also allowed other countries to see the strength of the Great Yan Dynasty, and other countries on the border naturally did not dare to act rashly.
What made the emperor happiest was that he learned the news that Marquis Xiao and Princess Yan Ning were alive.
Princess Yan Ning is his aunt.
If it weren't for his aunt, he would have been bullied by the palace servants, and even his father would not have cared about his life or death.
“That’s great, it’s really great!”
And Lord Xiao is still alive. He is a loyal and capable general of their Great Yan Dynasty.
Their Great Yan Dynasty suddenly had a powerful general.
This made the emperor extremely excited.
Everyone just thought that the emperor was excited because of the victory.
In fact, not only that, what made the emperor even more excited was that his aunt was still alive.
Moreover, my aunt has lived in hiding with Marquis Xiao for so many years.
His aunt suffered so much.
Now that my aunt's status has been restored and she has made great contributions to the Great Yan Dynasty, she must be rewarded.
And there is identity that must be restored.
The emperor paced back and forth in the imperial study, unable to contain his excitement.
The emperor immediately wrote an imperial edict in his study, and asked the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Lu Yechen, to personally take the imperial edict to the border and bring his aunt and Marquis Xiao back to the palace.
…
Of course, everyone in the capital was even more surprised to learn that these two were still alive.
"I thought Lord Xiao and Princess Yan Ning were dead, but I didn't expect them to be alive."
"Yes, our emperor is a man who cherishes old friendships. Princess Yanning took great care of him in the past. Now that the emperor has ascended the throne, he will certainly respect this princess very much."
"Besides, the princess is of a very high generation, and the royal family members dare not act rashly in front of her."
"Not to mention there's also Lord Xiao, who's a fierce general."
"Yes, during this border war, if it weren't for Marquis Xiao and Princess Yan Ning, Shabei Pass wouldn't have been able to withstand the arrival of reinforcements."
"We must win over Lord Xiao and Princess Yanning."
"That's right. I wonder where these two have been living these years and what their situations are like."
"Yeah, no one knows."
"I heard that both of them are very strong in Kung Fu."
"Of course not. I heard it's very powerful and can stop a huge army."
"Madam Su also made a great contribution this time. She donated one million dan of grain."
"Tsk tsk, a big grain producer, now I believe they really have produced high-yield grain."
"Now that we've eaten potatoes and sweet potatoes, we know how delicious they are."
Everyone in the capital was relieved to know that they had won the battle and that the Great Yan Dynasty was at peace and stable.
The people who are most discussed nowadays are Princess Yan Ning and Marquis Xiao.
…
When Shen Yueyao learned the news in Hezhou, she also fell silent.
She knew that her mother was Princess Yan Ning. Now that she knew the news, she was even more certain that her father was the young Marquis Xiao, who is now Marquis Xiao.
I don’t know if my third brother knows this news.
Seeing that fourth brother is busy with the farm and hot pot restaurant, he looks like he knows nothing.
She guessed that her fourth brother knew nothing about this news.
I don’t even know the identities of my parents.
She thought that if her parents went to the capital, it would probably cause a sensation.
