Chapter 429 Return to the Capital
If she still couldn't see Hu Dayong's thoughts at this moment, then she really wasn't worthy of being a time traveler.
No one was as anxious as he was along the way.
He didn't say it, but all his thoughts were written on his face.
If he is not in a hurry, who would be?
"What can I say? It's because the Emperor is anxious for us to return to the capital quickly. Why else would the Emperor write two expedited letters in a row urging General Yu to return?"
Yu Mengqing: “…” She discovered that when Hu Dayong was promoted to general, even his speech became more sophisticated.
But this is indeed a good thing for Yu Mengqing.
"Hu Dayong, you are in such a hurry to return to Beijing, but others don't know, and you really think we don't know either?" Guo Yalun on the side couldn't help but scold him.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Hu Dayong started laughing foolishly.
After thinking for a moment, he asked softly, "Is it so obvious?"
"It's very obvious!" everyone said in unison.
Hu Da said: "......"
Seeing that everyone had almost finished joking, Yu Mengqing finally spoke: "Alright, the general orders that you rest here for the night."
Although she also wanted to go back quickly, their mission had been completed now and there was no need to rush, so they could naturally walk slowly.
Besides, it was already completely dark, and if we went back, it would only be the middle of the night.
After hearing what Yu Mengqing said, even if everyone wanted to go back, they could only sigh and rest.
The next day.
Early in the morning, before daybreak, most people were already awake.
This place is only a few dozen miles away from the capital. If you walk faster, you can reach the capital by noon.
This is when they are most excited.
"I see it, I see it, is that Yu Mengqing?"
The streets of the capital were now filled with people.
"I don't know, it seems like she's not wearing a scarf? That shouldn't be the case!"
"You are stupid. If she is not, how could she be walking in front?" said another woman.
"It must be him. You didn't see that Yu Mengruo was with her. Look at the way she was talking to Yu Mengqing. It's obvious that they are very familiar with each other."
"That's right, you're obviously jealous. When you see someone doing well, you say they're not Yu Mengqing. Haven't you seen her eyes? They're exactly like Yu Mengqing's."
“…”
These women didn't know that Chu Shiheng, who was standing on the second floor, had heard everything they said clearly.
Following their line of sight, Chu Shiheng fixed his gaze on the woman in light green clothes who was leading the group.
From the time we met until now, she seems to have a special fondness for green clothes.
Chu Shiheng didn't know why, but no matter what color it was, it seemed to look good on her.
Yu Mengqing seemed to sense something and instantly raised her head and looked towards the second floor.
However, at this glance, she met Chu Shiheng's dark eyes.
At this moment, Yu Mengqing clearly felt her heart skip a beat, and also felt that it was accelerating...
It was only after seeing Chu Shiheng that Yu Mengqing realized that she really missed him.
I really want to...
Looking at the man she thought about day and night, Yu Mengqing called out softly: "Chu Shiheng..."
The sound was so soft that only she could hear it, but for some reason, Yu Mengqing knew that Chu Shiheng heard it.
Not only did he hear it, he even jumped down from the second floor, stood next to Yu Mengqing's horse, and stared at her closely...
Seeing this, Yu Mengqing jumped off the horse and stretched out her hands towards Chu Shiheng.
Chu Shiheng smiled and strode towards Yu Mengqing.
His pace seemed neither fast nor slow, but those who knew him knew that there was a certain disorder in his steps.
Walking up to Yu Mengqing, Chu Shiheng hugged her in his arms without thinking.
"I miss you so much..." Chu Shiheng said softly.
"Yeah, I know!"
From the fact that he repeatedly asked the emperor to give her letters, she knew that he not only missed his children, but also herself more, right?
Thinking of this, Yu Mengqing suddenly became excited again.
This time in the capital, Yu Mengqing, as the general, naturally went to the palace first.
Although she also wanted to return to Prince Zhan's Mansion, her duties lay with her. After arranging for several children, Yu Mengqing led a few people into the palace.
At this time, Chu Shiheng naturally wanted to join them.
"Did you see that? That's really Yu Mengqing."
As soon as Yu Mengqing left, the whole street exploded.
"She's been hugged like this in the street by the War King. If she wasn't Yu Mengqing, wouldn't she be drowned by her breath?"
"That's right. Everyone in the capital knows General Yu's name. She's not only a favorite of the Emperor, but also a favorite of the Great Xia Nation."
"Yes, I heard that the emperor summoned her back to the capital many times to receive rewards."
"Is there such a thing?"
"Of course there is. Don't disbelieve me. I heard that the emperor did urge me to come back several times this time."
"I heard that it was because Chu Shiheng was anxious and wanted to see his wife that he urged the emperor, so the emperor sent two urging letters."
I don't know who said this in the crowd, but it immediately caused an uproar.
Because after listening to it over and over again, everyone agreed that this news was the most reliable.
Yu Mengqing was unaware of the discussion among the crowd. At this moment, she was standing in the center of the Yangxin Palace, waiting for the emperor's reward.
"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: I have heard that General Yu Mengqing and War Prince Chu Shiheng have fulfilled their duties with loyalty and valor since assuming their important posts. They have protected my territory and brought peace to the four directions, and their achievements are outstanding. I highly commend them.
General Yu Mengqing and War Prince Chu Shiheng are not only valiant and skilled in battle, but also possess both wisdom and courage, repeatedly achieving unexpected victories and striking fear into the hearts of their enemies. Their rigorous military discipline and love for their soldiers, like their own children, have earned them the deepest respect of their officers and men. I am deeply gratified by their loyalty and ability.
To commend the two for their outstanding achievements, I grant them a thousand pieces of gold and silk, a thousand ounces of gold, a hundred rolls of brocade, and a mansion as encouragement. I also confer upon them the titles of White Tiger and Longyang Heavenly Generals, hoping that they will continue to serve me and safeguard the peace of the country. This is my decree."
Next, the emperor commended Xue Zhonggui, Guo Yalun, and even Hu Dayong and others one by one. After hearing Yu Mengqing say that she was overwhelmed, Chu Murong stopped.
"I have already prepared a banquet. Three days from now is a good day. I hope all my dear ministers can come and celebrate with me. Hahaha..."
"I obey your command!"
