Chapter 78 Weirdos
July 22, the 36th year of the Yuan calendar.
The Dongyi people submitted a letter of surrender to the Yuan Dynasty, expressing their willingness to marry one of their princesses. For the next hundred years, there was no war between the Dongyi people and the Yuan Dynasty.
The Emperor of Yuan was overjoyed and immediately issued an edict, stating that the day Wu'an Marquis returned to the capital, he would be conferred the title of First-Class Duke.
Yun Zhuan naturally knew the news and was very happy.
One is that Yun Rui returns home, and the other is that the Yun family wins the hearts of the people.
These days, Yun Ju'an stayed at home and did not go out, and everyone in the Yun family kept a low profile.
The purpose is to make the Yun family hide away from the world and prevent other noble families and officials from finding any mistakes.
This is good, but also bad.
Yun Rui's voice in the army must be getting louder day by day, and the master of the world is the emperor, the supreme ruler in the capital.
It’s His Majesty the Emperor.
How can I allow others to snore beside my couch?
How could an emperor feel at ease allowing the people to extol this first-class duke who had military power and prestige?
The best way is to wait for Aung to come back and hand over the military power.
The emperor must have heard about the Yun family's seclusion to cultivate themselves.
He could do nothing about the Yun family.
This battle was fought silently. Rather than fighting against other subjects, it was more like fighting against the current emperor.
Only a change of dynasty can keep the Yun family's place.
Yun Ju'an's hand was a little unsteady when he wrote the inscription "May everything go well", but he spilled ink on the word "胜".
Lu'e, who was serving beside him, saw this and said:
"Miss, since you are not in the mood to write, why don't you let Miss take you out for a walk?"
Yun Zhuan put down his pen and tilted his head to look at Lu'e: "Forget it, let's just go for a walk on the street. Staying in the house will only make us anxious."
Ever since Yun Huai died in battle last time and Yun Zhuan returned to the Yun family, the emperor issued an edict.
It is said that Yun Jianan of the Yun family has learned etiquette well and does not need to enter the palace anymore.
It was also possible that Emperor Yuan was aware of her and knew that if she stayed in the palace for a while longer, the peaceful harem would be disturbed by her and there would never be peace.
Shangjing was naturally a bustling place, with people coming and going, shoulder to shoulder.
There are small stalls, hawkers, restaurants and teahouses, and a wide variety of beautiful items.
These beautiful scenes were all bought with blood and lives.
Yun Ju'an lowered her eyes. Her freedom was also bought back by her uncle's death, right?
Suddenly, an old cripple who was walking in a hurry accidentally bumped into Yun Ju'an, and Yun Ju'an felt a pain in his shoulder.
"Miss!" Duhuo immediately supported Yun Zhuan.
The crazy cripple fell to the ground, smiling like an idiot.
More soldiers were chasing him from behind, but he didn't run away even though he was lying on the ground. He smelled terrible and his clothes were tattered. It seemed that he hadn't taken a bath in many days.
His hair was tied in a knot, and only his eyes were visible. Although he looked old, his eyes were still bright.
He raised his eyes and took in Yun Zhuan's face.
Although it is autumn, the heat is still unrelieved.
The officers and soldiers behind them just came over and saw the mess. They said fiercely:
"How dare you, the idlers, to interfere with public affairs? Why don't you leave immediately?"
Duhuo threw the token directly at the commander's face: "Open your dog eyes and take a good look!"
The commander was about to get angry when he took a closer look at the token. It was hollowed out and carved, and it was a heavy gold token.
Judging from the intricate patterns, it must have come from the Sanshi Bureau in the palace.
Then identify the words carved on it - Princess Yuling.
It turned out to be Princess Yuling, who was personally conferred by His Majesty.
"I am a villain who did not recognize the great man. Please forgive me, Princess." The commander and the people following him knelt down hurriedly.
Yun Zhuan just felt unlucky: "Why don't you get out of here?"
"What about this person..." The commander still hesitated.
This old lunatic offended a nobleman for no reason, and now he has to bear the consequences. How can he get rid of the hatred in his heart if he is not beaten to death?
Duhuo rolled his eyes, and the commander, along with a group of officers and soldiers behind him, rode away without stopping.
The lame old madman looked at Yun Ju'an carefully with a hint of interest in his eyes. After seeing that the officer and soldier had left, he stood up and grabbed Yun Ju'an's wrist.
Who knew that Duhuo would directly draw out his sword and stab the lame old madman.
The man's heart sank, and he easily dodged the attack by using his inner strength.
I even felt that I was getting interested and I actually used quite a few tricks with this Duhuo.
But for some reason, when Yun Ju'an watched the fight, it seemed as if the old madman was unilaterally crushing Du Sheng.
He could easily dodge every move of Duhuo, and even completely return the favor to Duhuo in the next move.
After making up for the deficiencies, I will return it to Duhuo completely.
Even living alone can learn a lot from it.
Yun Ju'an half-closed his eyes, his gaze moving around, and leaned against the pillar of the hall to look carefully.
This man's martial arts skills were definitely the best among those she had ever seen.
Why should we let ourselves be bullied by those scoundrels?
What is his purpose?
A fight stopped.
Duhuo was already sweating, and there were some cuts on his body from the sword.
But he still stood firmly in front of Yun Zhuan and assumed a fighting stance again.
Although she was defeated, she was willing to fight for a chance of survival for the young lady.
The old madman seemed to enjoy Duhuo very much and had no intention of fighting again.
Yun Zhuan put his hand on Duhuo's shoulder: "It's okay, you can rest behind me."
"Miss..." Duhuo hesitated, his words were hasty and nervous.
Yun Zhuan, however, would not allow any comment, so Duhuo had no choice but to push the matter behind his own young lady.
Fortunately, Yun Zhuan and the other person were not in that busy alley, otherwise if there were so many people there, they might get hurt accidentally.
"Old sir, you have tried my Lu'e's skills. What do you think?" Yun Zhuan sneered, "Does she have a grudge against me, or against the Yun family? Or does she just dislike me?"
Yun Ju'an was wearing a cobalt blue skirt with pearls and gold thread, revealing a bright red mole on her collarbone. She was playing with a string of eighteen agarwood sticks in her hand, and her eyes were sharp and stern.
The old madman seemed to have calmed down: "What are you talking about, Princess?"
"Just looking at this kid's skills, he is not worthy of being in front of the princess."
Duhuo was about to step forward, but was stopped by Yun Juan, who smiled:
"Then who do you think is worthy of staying by my side?"
The old madman said without hesitation: "Me!"
Yun Zhuan sneered and said word by word: "I don't want it."
As soon as the word fell, Yun Zhuan turned around. She just showed some kindness, but she actually provoked such a person. As expected, she could only go to restaurants and teahouses when she went out.
It is better to listen to books and music than to hang your head on your belt.
Who would have thought that Yun Zhuan had only taken two steps when the person behind him changed his voice to a steady one:
"Have you really forgotten your responsibilities?"
"That war and the fire burned through everything. Your survival was the result of the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers."
"Do you have a heart?"
Yun Zhuan paused, her body trembled, and her head felt a dull pain, as if something had passed by, but she didn't catch anything.
"You've got the wrong person." Yun Jue paused for a moment and whispered, "I grew up in the Yun family of Wu'an Marquis Mansion. There has never been a big fire, let alone any war!"
