It was snowing and it was very difficult to walk. Several times the wheels of the car got stuck in the mud and couldn't get out. Even so, no one complained.
They rushed for ten days but still failed to reach the capital on New Year's Eve.
It was already the eighth day of the first lunar month when they arrived in the capital.
Qian and the old lady had been looking forward to it for a long time. When the servant came to report, the whole family was standing at the door waiting.
Everyone saw Song Tingyue and Song Shaoheng riding horses from afar, with a carriage beside them. Everyone knew that it must be Chi Yunzhi inside.
When Song Tingyue got off the horse, helped Chi Yunzhi out of the carriage, and pulled her to stand in front of the family, Qian finally couldn't help but come up and look at the two brothers several times.
After confirming that the two brothers were safe and sound, tears welled up in my eyes.
"Mom, I'm back, aren't I?" Song Tingyue said softly.
"Mom, my brother, sister-in-law and I are all fine!" Song Shaoheng was a little anxious when he saw Qian crying inconsolably.
"Okay, stop standing at the door and come in." The old lady wiped the wet corners of her eyes and called everyone in.
Song Tingyue helped Chi Yunzhi walk up the stairs carefully, and Song Shaoheng also helped Chu walk in. The two little ones followed behind them, chattering non-stop.
The whole family was finally reunited on this day.
However, before Song Tingyue sat down for long, the palace sent the emperor's close eunuchs to bathe and change clothes before going to see the emperor.
Qian was as if facing a great enemy, and she grabbed Chi Yunzhi and Song Tingyue's hands and gave them a lot of instructions.
Song Shaoheng sat slumped in the chair, but he didn't expect the eunuch to call his name, and he sat up straight all of a sudden.
After Song Tingyue and the other two bathed and changed their clothes, they followed the eunuch into the palace to meet the emperor.
In addition to them, there were Bai Yufeng, Zhang Rongan and others, and even Bai Jingjing was there.
It was not until she reached the Golden Palace that Chi Yunzhi finally realized that she had met the emperor.
She looked up cautiously. The emperor sitting on the dragon throne was over sixty years old, with white hair on his temples, but his eyes were still bright.
He exuded the majesty of a superior, and just one glance at him made Chi Yunzhi lower her head with a trembling heart.
"Are you Chi?" The emperor was very interested in the legendary wife of Marquis Zhenyuan, so he asked as soon as he saw her.
"In reply to the emperor, I am truly your humble subject." Chi Yunzhi straightened her back and answered respectfully, her voice loud and pleasant.
"Okay, okay, as the wife of Marquis Zhenyuan, you have such courage and guts to chase your husband thousands of miles away. I heard that these explosives and landmines were all made by you?" asked the emperor.
Chi Yunzhi glanced at Song Tingyue and saw the encouragement in his eyes. "Yes, I stumbled upon this by accident. The barbarians retreated because they were afraid of this thing!"
The Emperor nodded with great satisfaction. "Chi is a woman who is as capable as any man. I would like to confer her the title of Second Rank Imperial Consort. Do you have any objections, my dear ministers?"
If the emperor could say this, it must be the result of careful consideration. How could these ministers have any objection?
"My dear Minister Chi, you have truly given birth to a wonderful daughter!" The emperor said happily, stroking his beard.
When Chi Bingwen was named, he knelt down quickly and said, "Your Majesty, thank you for your praise. I am overwhelmed!" In fact, he was already very happy in his heart.
During this enthronement ceremony, several young men received more or less rewards, even Bai Jingjing, who left without saying goodbye, was rewarded.
Song Tingyue brought a cart full of rewards back to the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion. Along the way, he heard the people praising him and Chi Yunzhi.
The entire capital knew that not only did Chi Yunzhi chase her husband for thousands of miles, but she also invented explosives and landmines, defeating the barbarians. Her reputation and prestige were even on par with Song Tingyue's.
"Aren't you jealous?" Chi Yunzhi couldn't help asking when she saw the corners of his mouth curled up.
"I am lucky enough to marry your wife. They are right." Song Tingyue really wanted to hold her in his arms and kiss her hard. How could his Yunzhi be so cute and charming?
Chi Yunzhi laughed so hard that her body shook. She admitted that she was pleased by Song Tingyue.
Song Shaoheng and Bai Yufeng, who were following beside them, were fed a mouthful of dog food.
When Chi Miaoyan learned that Chi Yunzhi not only returned from the border unharmed, but was also conferred the title of a second-rank imperial lady, she was so angry that she smashed everything in the house.
When Zhang Youxing came in and saw what was happening, instead of blaming her, he comforted her for a long time.
Chi Miaoyan threw herself into his arms and cried for a long time.
Tonight was destined to be a lively night for the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, and everyone sat together and had dinner in a lively atmosphere.
During this time, Song Shaoheng kept talking and recounting all the interesting things that happened in the military camp, making everyone laugh.
Now that Chi Yunzhi has been granted an imperial title, no one dares to look down on her, and even Qian's attitude has become much better.
The real welcoming banquet was held on the second night. Zhou and Chi Bingwen also came, and the Bai brothers and sisters and Zhang Rongan brothers and sisters also came together. The scene was extremely lively.
Chi Yunzhi noticed something strange among these young couples.
For example, Zhang Rongan and Bai Jingjing's eyes met from time to time, and then quickly looked away. Whether they were knocking on the table or looking at the sky, they looked very busy.
For example, Princess Muyang accidentally knocked over Bai Yufeng's wine glass, and when the two of them made eye contact, their faces quickly turned red.
She didn't believe there was something to it.
Chi Yunzhi enjoyed reading gossip and would chat with Chu from time to time. The two sisters-in-law were also very busy.
When the banquet was over, Zhang Rong'an and Bai Jingjing looked at each other for several times, and finally left in a carriage at the urging of their families.
The next morning, an uninvited guest came to the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion.
When Chi Yunzhi saw her, all the extra emotions disappeared from his heart.
"Is there something you want to bring me here for?" Chi Yunzhi sat at the top seat very naturally.
Chi Miaoyan only needed to take one look to know that the gap between herself and Chi Yunzhi had become an insurmountable chasm.
In terms of status, appearance and talent, she was completely suppressed by Chi Yunzhi.
Although she was very unwilling, her status also rose because of Chi Yunzhi.
Zhang Youxing has already heard from Prince Rui that no matter how Chi Miaoyan targeted Chi Yunzhi before, after today, Chi Miaoyan must respect this marquis' wife!
"Sister, everything that happened before was my fault. I'm here to apologize to you." Chi Miaoyan tried her best to suppress her inner resentment and bowed to Chi Yunzhi.
Now it was Chi Yunzhi's turn to be stunned.
She didn't think Chi Miaoyan was a good person. How could she bow to her so easily?
Last time in the carriage, Chi Miaoyan wanted to strangle her to death!
"Sister, if you want to resolve the past grudge, you have to show your sincerity. It seems that you are living a pretty good life now, right?" Chi Yunzhi glanced at her.
She was wearing brocade and a gold hairpin on her head, which showed that she must be favored.
