Chapter 573 Return to the Duke's Mansion
Qin Shang and his son also completed their mission, and after consulting Murong Li for almost all the time, they said goodbye to him.
"When does the Western Phoenix Emperor plan to set sail?"
If you want to find the world of cultivation, you must go to sea. I heard that at the end of the sea, you can reach the world of cultivation.
"I'm not sure yet. I want to wait until my sons grow up and hand over Xifeng Kingdom to them before I dare to leave."
Qin Shang and his son were somewhat disappointed. They thought that having Murong Li, a master, traveling with them would provide them with some security on the journey. They did not want him to wait until the children grew up, which would be at least ten or twenty years later. They could not wait that long. Now that the affairs of Dongfeng Country had been settled, there was basically nothing to linger in this mortal world. It was time to set off for the world of cultivation.
Qin Shang clasped his fists and said, "Then we'll meet again later."
Murong Li also clasped his fists towards them and said, "You will regret it someday."
Afterwards, Qin Shang and his son also left Beifeng Kingdom. After returning to Dongfeng Kingdom, they gave some instructions and then took his descendants and grandchildren onto the large ship they had built themselves.
With Murong Li's strong support, the people of Beifeng Kingdom survived the most difficult winter in the past for the first time.
As soon as winter passes, spring comes.
At this time, carriages loaded with tender green sweet potato vines left the capital and went to the counties, towns and villages of Beifeng Kingdom until they were completely distributed to the people.
Only then did the people realize that this vine, if planted in the soil, would produce fruit that could fill their stomachs.
The people immediately went down and served attentively.
In the blink of an eye, it was the harvest season. When the people looked at the sweet potatoes that were bigger than apples, the joy in their hearts was sweeter and more exciting than picking up gold.
From then on, they would never go hungry again.
The people sang praises to the current Western Phoenix Emperor and spread his deeds everywhere.
Murong Li became a good emperor respected by all the people and was supported by the people.
When the people were well fed, they had the energy to work. Murong Li then vigorously built defense projects, flood control projects, and drought prevention projects.
So Murong Li started the South-to-North Water Diversion Project again, diverting water from the south of Xifeng Kingdom to Beifeng Kingdom.
Although the project was huge, time-consuming and labor-intensive, the people had no objection and volunteered to join the construction team for the sake of future generations.
A main road was built, and reservoirs or ditches were built along the way to bring water to all parts of Beifeng Kingdom.
With cement, the ditches are not easy to collapse and are very popular among the people.
There are many mountains in Beifeng Kingdom that are covered with snow all year round. At the foot of the mountains, the people have built reservoirs with cement to store water. In this way, the people of Beifeng Kingdom will no longer be so short of water.
Murong Li and his companions stayed in Beifeng Kingdom for almost a year. The triplets were one year old. After Murong Li dealt with the affairs of the court, he planned to return to Xifeng Kingdom.
The New Year is coming soon, it’s time to go back and take a look.
Although the Northern Feng Kingdom merged with the Western Feng Kingdom, it was not so easy for the two countries to merge together, so their affairs remained separate.
Murong Li handed over the court affairs to the secret guards he trained before setting off to return to Xifeng Kingdom.
Before they left, the Xifeng Kingdom handed over everything to Su Qiwen. He was indeed a talented person. When they were away, Xifeng Kingdom was managed in an orderly manner by him.
It was already the beginning of the twelfth lunar month when Murong Li and his companions returned to the Xifeng Kingdom's palace. Seeing that everything in the palace was still the same, it seemed as if they had just gone out for a walk yesterday.
The only thing that proves that time has passed is that the triplets can walk slowly, they can also speak, and can call father emperor and mother queen.
On the third day after they returned, Su Yue brought the triplets back to the Duke's Mansion.
All the people from the Duke's Mansion were waiting for them at the gate.
They had just gotten off the carriage when they saw people kneeling on the ground in front of the Duke's Mansion.
"Welcome His Majesty, the Empress, and the three princes."
"Grandfather, grandmother, father, mother, elder brother and sister-in-law...hurry up and get up."
Seeing Youcang
The Duke and the Old Lady looked a bit older, and Su Yue felt a pang in her heart, and quickly helped them up.
"My children, I finally got you back."
The old lady hugged Su Yue and was reluctant to let go.
"Grandma, I'm sorry to have worried you."
Su Yue wiped the tears from the old lady's eyes and said guiltily.
"As long as you are all well, I will be relieved. It's cold outside, let's go inside first. I still need to check on the three little princes."
The old lady gathered her cloak around Su Yue and said, while her eyes were searching for the triplets in the crowd.
It was cold, and they brought a lot of people with them. The triplets were wrapped up tightly, so they were not brought over. The three Yueying girls held theirs.
"good."
Su Yue spoke a few more words to Mr. Su and his wife, and then everyone entered the mansion.
The group came to the living room, which was warm. Everyone took off their coats and moved around a lot.
Su Yue and Murong Li were holding the triplets and trying to recognize them.
"This is my great-grandfather."
"Great-grandfather!"
Three little baby voices cried out at the same time. Their speech was still unclear, but the sound was so cute that it melted people's hearts. The Duke immediately hugged one of them and kissed her.
"Come on, call me great-grandmother!"
The old lady couldn't wait. She wanted to hug such a cute great-grandson. She asked the eldest lady to support her and reached out to pinch the child's rosy face.
"Great-grandmother!"
The two little kids were not shy at all, and they started calling out sweetly as soon as the old lady finished speaking.
"Oh, my dear, great-grandmother, give me a hug."
Seeing these extremely adorable princes, the old lady was so envious that she reached out to touch this one and that one, and even wanted to hug them.
But she was too old to hold him, so she could only touch him, and she couldn't let go of him.
The two children cooperated very well, letting the old lady touch them and smiling from time to time.
"Great-grandmother, I want a hug and a touch, too."
Seeing that the old lady was very happy with the triplets, Su Ziyang ran over with his short legs, hugged her legs and asked to touch them.
"Oh, our Yang'er is here too."
The old lady quickly reached out and touched Yang'er's head.
Su Yue and Murong Li placed the two children on the ground. Su Yue said gently, "This is your cousin."
"cousin."
The two little dumplings called out in a soft voice.
Yang'er looked at the two identical little balls curiously, his big eyes rolling around.
All the adults present burst into laughter, and then the Duke brought the little ball over to show Yang'er.
Su Qiwen came over and squatted down, saying to him, "These are your three little cousins, the triplets that Daddy always told you about."
Yang'er was a little over a year and a half old and could understand what adults were saying. He nodded and said softly, "Hello, triplets."
"Hahaha……"
Yang'er's cute appearance made everyone laugh again. He couldn't tell who was the eldest prince, the second prince and the third prince, so he simply called them triplets.
"Hahaha... My grandson is just smart."
Grandpa Su picked up Yang'er and started kissing him, which made Yang'er feel disgusted: "Grandpa, your beard is prickly."
Uncle Su...
