Smiling, Fu Lingyue approached Ye Wanshu and said, "Mother, after we meet our father, we'll go back to the palace to look for our great-uncle."
I don't know what Qingqing said to the little dumplings, but it actually made them stop making noise. Ye Wanshu said with a look of relief, "Then we will leave the city now to welcome your father."
"Great, great, I can finally see my father."
Seeing the brother and sister looking excited, Ye Wanshu and Mu Qingqing carried the two little ones and got on the carriage. The group followed the people in the city and slowly headed out of the city.
Along the way, Ye Wanshu was fantasizing about meeting Fu Mingchi again.
I haven't replied to his letter yet, so I guess he must be holding a lot of resentment in his heart.
Fortunately, Ji Yunze has achieved a great victory overseas, and His Majesty has allowed him to return to Beijing. This time, no matter how deep the resentment that bastard has, he can no longer vent his anger on Ji Yunze.
Thinking of this, Ye Wanshu felt a lot more relieved.
After leaving the city, they waited outside the north city for a long time. They watched the triumphant royal army enter the city one after another, but they still didn't see Fu Mingchi. Not only the two little kids, but even Ye Wanshu felt a little anxious.
I waited until the afternoon, but still didn't see Fu Mingchi return. Instead, I saw a familiar figure riding a horse out of the city absent-mindedly.
"Master Ji?"
Mu Qingqing was the first to recognize the identity of the visitor and asked excitedly, "Master Ji, are you here to welcome my cousin as well?"
Noticing that something was wrong with his expression, Ye Wanshu immediately became suspicious.
Ji Yunze had probably just arrived in Beijing. Not to mention that he had made great contributions, it was impossible for him to leave the city to welcome Fu Mingchi just because of his stubborn personality.
I wonder why he is here at this time?
"Sir Ji, you've been exhausted from the long journey. You should just rest at home. Why bother going out of the city and suffering?" Ye Wanshu said tentatively.
Ji Yunze clasped his fists and replied solemnly, "Your Majesty has ordered me to rush to the northern border immediately to pursue the remaining Daqiu troops while we are victorious."
"What?" Ye Wanshu was surprised, and immediately guessed that it must be that bastard Fu Mingchi's intention again.
But she couldn't let out her anger in front of the two little kids.
"Did Lord Ji misunderstand His Majesty's intention?" Ye Wanshu said tactfully, "Why don't you return to the city first and wait for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to return before we discuss further."
Just as he finished speaking, he heard a commotion among the crowd.
Ye Wanshu looked over when she heard the voice and saw Fu Mingchi leading his trusted followers slowly approaching.
His eyes were fixed on Ji Yunze, and he seemed a little displeased.
"Father."
Fu Ling'an and Fu Lingyue happily went to meet him quickly. Ye Wanshu stared blankly at him as he dismounted and gently picked up the two little guys, but her feet were frozen in place.
Fu Mingchi walked forward calmly, slowly put the two little kids down, and looked at Ye Wanshu with a half-smile: "Wan'er doesn't seem happy to see me?"
"Father, you've wronged Mother." Fu Ling'an explained, "Mother thinks about you every day."
"Father has wronged your mother."
Fu Mingchi curled his lips into a smile, glancing at Ji Yunze on his horse from the corner of his eye, and said calmly, "Master Ji has worked hard and made great contributions. We should have kept you in the capital to recuperate for a while, but the military situation in the north is urgent, so we have to trouble you to rush to the border as soon as possible."
Ji Yunze was like a dumb person eating coptis chinensis, unable to express his pain, so he could only clasp his hands and say yes.
Ye Wanshu didn't know why this bastard was still trying to embarrass Ji Yunze. She approached Fu Mingchi and whispered, "Your Highness has so many powerful generals around him, why would you let a scholar like Master Ji go to the northern border?"
"Lord Ji is a trusted official of the imperial court. Only he is qualified for this task."
Fu Mingchi evaded the question and urged Yan Jin to send Ji Yunze on his way.
Ye Wanshu wanted to stop him, but Fu Mingchi carried her directly into the carriage.
"Wan'er feels so sorry for that nerd?" Fu Mingchi looked a little unhappy.
"Fu Mingchi, you are about to rule the world, so why can't you tolerate Ji Yunze?" Ye Wanshu said, "He is your subject, not your enemy."
"That's why I should let him achieve more merits."
Seeing her angry expression, Fu Mingchi said seriously, "Wan'er, think about it. The court is now full of veteran officials from Yuezhou. Who will restrain these people in the future? Only Ji Yunze can help me balance the power of the court."
"So you didn't mean to embarrass him?" Ye Wanshu looked at him doubtfully, but had to agree with his logic.
"Why would I embarrass him?" Fu Mingchi acted calmly and held her in his arms. "Wan'er is now the mother of An'an and Yueyue, and the Crown Princess of this palace. Wouldn't it be unkind of me to embarrass him?"
Ye Wanshu thought about it carefully again and it seemed to be true.
Fu Mingchi added, "As for giving him the credit for pacifying the north, I do have some selfish motives."
Gazing at her with lowered eyebrows, Fu Mingchi smiled faintly and said, "It has been three years since Wan'er gave birth to An'an and Yueyue for me. I miss you and your children all the time when I am at the border. Now that the northern invaders are at the end of their strength, I want to return to the capital as soon as possible to be with you."
These words actually moved Ye Wanshu.
During these years of separation, she had been looking forward to Fu Mingchi's early return to the court in triumph.
It's rare that he is not the kind of person who only talks about fame and fortune all day long, and he also cares about the three of them, mother and son.
"I misunderstood you," Ye Wanshu said sincerely, "Now that the Northern Capital has been recaptured, it can be considered as fulfilling His Majesty's wish. From now on, I just want you to stay with us three mothers."
Ye Wanshu suddenly thought of the things in the palace and quickly stuck her head out: "Oh right, His Majesty has ordered people to prepare the abdication ceremony and also prepared a wedding ceremony for us. Now..."
