Chapter 135
Return a favor with a favor
"Your Highness, Liu Buqi is helping you!"
Changsun Wuwo’s next words really shocked Yue Hanxin!
"Once the news of Yehe's destruction is made public, Yue Lingxi and Liu Buqi's reputation in Youzhou will be at its peak! And you will have no place to stand!"
"Alas, if the current situation continues, sooner or later the Crown Prince and the King of Yan will have to clash. If you are in Youzhou, helpless and outraged, I'm afraid no one will be able to protect you!"
"I will send you back to the capital now. As long as the Prince of Yan doesn't give the order, even the Crown Prince can't force you, the Princess of Yan, to return to your mother's home!"
"If there is any foul play between the two parties in the future, you can announce it to the world and sever ties, or the Prince of Yan can dismiss his concubine and divorce her peacefully. In the end, you will still have someone to rely on!"
Changsun Wuwo looked at the silent Yue Hanxin, thought for a moment, and then spoke again.
"Of course, Liu Buqi also had selfish motives for doing this. After all, being able to safely get rid of the woman around Prince Yan was what she wanted."
Yue Han knew in his heart that this last statement was just to comfort himself. After failing to take control of Youzhou, how could the King of Yan possibly favor a woman who once intended to force him?
…
After seeing off Changsun Wuwo, Yue Hanxin went straight to Liu Buqi's courtyard. Although he didn't have the ability to repay the favor now, it was only natural for him to express his gratitude!
Liu Buqi had just fed the little one in her arms. Although a wet nurse had been prepared in the mansion as per custom, she still insisted on feeding the child herself.
Seeing Yue Hanxin enter the room, she straightened her clothes without any hesitation and handed the child to the maid beside her.
"Madam, you are so busy with so many things, but you still raise the child yourself. The little prince is really a blessed man!" Yue Hanxin was also raised by a wet nurse since childhood, and her words revealed a tone of envy.
Liu Buqi smiled and said, "Lingxi and I have been alone for as long as we can remember. We also want this child not to be like us, not being able to see his parents often since childhood."
"Han Xin, I wonder why you came to see me?"
Yue Hanxin hurriedly stood up and bowed solemnly, "I came here specially to thank Madam! Hanxin was dull, and it was only after Lord Changsun pointed it out that I realized Madam's kindness, and I really can't repay it!"
Liu Buqi hurriedly helped her up and carefully looked at the beautiful woman in front of him. Although she had been in Youzhou for less than a year, there was already a lot of worry between Yue Hanxin's brows, and she was no longer the same as she was in the capital.
"Alas, you and I are both women, why bother thanking me! But now that I'm gone, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to see each other again!"
"Although you are called a married woman, you are actually a perfect woman. If you marry again in the future, you will definitely find a husband of your dreams! Just treat the events of Youzhou as a dream, let it go with the wind!"
Since the two of them met, they rarely had the opportunity to have a heart-to-heart talk.
Yue Hanxin could only respond with a wry smile, "Hanxin doesn't think about it. After returning to Beijing this time, if possible, I will immerse myself in calligraphy and painting and stop caring about worldly affairs!"
Seeing that she looked somewhat uninterested, Liu Buqi still reminded her solemnly:
"Han Xin, the title of Princess of Yan is enough to protect you from any whim after you return to the capital. Even... not even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can force you to do anything! If you have any difficulties, go to the Prince of Yan's Mansion in the capital to find Lord Lu Ren. You can also stay at the Prince's Mansion for a long time!"
Strictly speaking, these were words with hidden meanings. Yue Han naturally understood what they meant. Her return to Beijing this time could be described as a disgrace. A princess who was forced to return to her mother's home could never have a good ending in any dynasty. She might even be given away as a "gift" one day!
The title of Princess of Yan on her head is now Yue Hanxin's last guarantee. No matter what the relationship between Prince Yan and Yue Hanxin is, as long as this title remains, she will naturally not tolerate bullying from others.
After thanking Liu Buqi again, Yue Hanxin said goodbye and left. Yue Lingxi, who had been hiding in the inner room, came out.
"You do care about her, don't you? How about I leave her to keep you company?"
Knowing that Yue Lingxi was teasing him, Liu Buqi still gave the laughing man a light punch.
"Alas, she's quite pitiful! Our two families have a deep hatred for each other. If the grudge is exposed to the world in the future, if she is still in Youzhou, I'm afraid she will have no choice but to end her life! Why not take this opportunity to send her back?"
"Why, if you really miss these beauties, I'll go to the capital myself and bring back all the Yuanyuans and Fangfangs for you, okay?"
A pair of slender and ruthless hands have begun to do whatever they want on Yue Lingxi's arm!
With a grin on his face, Yue Lingxi suddenly picked up Liu Buqi. This young woman has been a little arrogant with her child recently. It's time to restore her husband's authority!
…
In the following days, Lu Qinghou, Zhang Ruoxu, Li Huaigu, and Guan Ying, the "pillars" during Yue Lingxi's expedition, were secretly received by him one after another.
The appointment of these people will be carried out together with the reward of the expeditionary army! As for the rewards and pensions for those who made contributions and sacrificed their lives in defending the city, they have already been implemented.
As the saying goes, good things are never too late. The four of them were able to meet Yue Lingxi who had returned secretly and learn about Youzhou's next major action. Naturally, they have entered the core sequence of King Yan. The fact that official positions and rewards were given later just means that they are to be entrusted with important tasks, which require careful discussion with the four ministers.
Apart from these four die-hard supporters, Xu Ningmei was the only one in the entire Youzhou who received a secret audience with Yue Lingxi.
Everyone in this scripture understood the principle that a gentleman would die for his friend, and eventually they began to gradually integrate into the Youzhou forces!
During this period, an expected surprise came. The small army that was ordered to pursue the remnants of the grassland turned back!
This "rushing into someone" was definitely Liu Buqi's order, and it really told Zhuanqu Yanshi to "get the hell out of here!"
In just over a month, they'd pursued the enemy for a full thousand miles! Although Zhuanqu Yanshi had been gathering soldiers from small and medium-sized tribes along the way, they couldn't withstand the swift movement of the small armies, who would always charge just before they could gather!
With only less than two thousand cavalrymen, they actually killed more than ten thousand grassland soldiers and generals on the thousand-mile grassland, creating a leaderless vacuum zone in the thousand-mile grassland for a short time!
Zhuanqu Yanshi had no choice but to leave her women and children behind and head west to join Yesen on the expedition! If she hadn't sent scouts in advance to contact the grassland expeditionary army for support,
I'm afraid that the little soldier will chase them to the battlefield between the Dayuezhi and the grassland army!
As the saying goes, an unexpected planting of willows can lead to a forest of willows. It was originally just a casual move, and no one could have expected such a great result!
Yue Lingxi and Liu Buqi looked at Xiao Junzi's battle report in disbelief, and the same thought popped up in their minds!
This is Yue Wuji, the Marquis of Tianwangguan!
