Wen Yu didn't explain much and started eating the melon seeds.
For a moment, she forgot about the fish-snatching guard that she was quite interested in just now.
After Lu Ren left, Wen Yu did not go out for the past two days.
As February approaches, the snow has stopped falling and the weather is gradually warming up instead of being bitterly cold.
Cui Xin no longer had to do the job of sweeping snow, which made her feel a lot more relaxed.
Liudong couldn't think of anything that could keep him busy for a while, but Cuixin suggested making a swing for Wenyu in the yard since spring was approaching.
"..." Liu Dong looked a little strange after hearing his volunteering.
Has Cui Xin forgotten her identity as a spy and really thought of herself as a maid?
And I don’t know what’s wrong with him, he has been showing up in front of Wen Yu these two days.
The princess' tea will get cold soon, I'll give you some more.
Will the princess be hot in a moment? Should we remove some of the charcoal?
This made Liu Dong even doubt whether he was redundant.
She and Liuchun looked at each other, both confused.
No way, is she really pretending to be a maid and getting herself into trouble?
Liu Dong looked at Wen Yu who was reading the storybook as if nothing had happened, and hid aside with Liu Chun and muttered: "Is this what the princess said, that we don't understand men?"
Liu Chun covered his mouth and said, "Wouldn't it be better if we learn more from the princess?"
At this time, someone came from the palace and said that the army would return victoriously tomorrow, and the emperor would bring civil and military officials to welcome the army at the Main Gate, and asked Wen Yu to attend as well.
Wen Yu: ...
The question that concerned her most was, "What time is it?"
The palace maid replied: "Princess, it's morning."
Wen Yu was so upset. She knew that it was seven o'clock in the morning again.
She was a little curious: "Isn't it that Lu Ren's army is so punctual? If it says Chenshi, it is Chenshi?"
The palace servant said, "The army will arrive outside Shengjing tonight. After resting, they will enter the capital at noon tomorrow."
"..." Wen Yu was silent. Wasn't this just a formality?
We arrived outside the city at night, but we had to wait until the next morning to get in...
Wen Yu felt a headache when she thought about having to get up at seven o'clock tomorrow.
I really need to give my brother some advice someday. Can you please not go to work so early? Ministers are also human beings! Just think of it as a benefit for the civil and military ministers.
Because the emperor specifically instructed her not to be late, a carriage came from the palace early the next morning and waited outside the princess's mansion.
Wen Yu was sleeping soundly when Liu Chun and Liu Dong woke her up from bed and asked her to wash and dress herself.
"General Lu would be happy if he saw the princess."
Wen Yu held her chin in her hand and chuckled, "He is happy. My brother will soon be bald."
Liu Chun was puzzled: "Ah?"
Wen Yu shook her head: "That's because I didn't listen to my sister. I'm suffering now. I can't save her even if I want to. I can't take care of her. I really can't take care of her."
Liuchun: ...
Wen Yu dressed up, got on the carriage prepared by the emperor, and arrived at the Arch in a drowsy state.
The scene of welcoming the army was extremely solemn and dignified, even more so than the farewell scene that day.
But that day she stood on the city wall, and today she stood among the officials.
Wen Yu looked around and saw that all the civil and military officials were in high spirits, as if everyone had a good sleep and was not sleepy at all.
She also saw Jiang Qi in the crowd, he was standing in the third row.
He was still wearing a proper official uniform, with a clear and serious look.
Noticing Wen Yu's gaze, he put his fist to his lips, coughed, and avoided her gaze.
As for those standing further away, Wen Yu could not see clearly. She only knew that it was a sea of heads.
As for Lin Yuzhi, who was extremely conspicuous in the first row, he was ruthlessly ignored by Wen Yu.
Lin Yuzhi, who was looking at Wen Yu, said: …
When the emperor saw Wen Yu arrived on time, a hint of relief appeared in his eyes.
He sighed, "I thought my sister wouldn't come."
Wen Yu woke up instantly after hearing this. She was careless. It turned out that she could have avoided it...
But the main reason was that she was still happy to see Lu Ren's triumphant look.
After all, he was the man she fell in love with at first sight, and he could be described in one word: handsome.
The emperor wanted to tease Wen Yu some more, but since all the civil and military officials were present, he did not say anything else. Instead, he stared at the official road and waited quietly.
Not long after, the sky began to brighten. Before the army could be seen, the sound of orderly horse hooves could be faintly heard from a distance.
The officials perked up and looked into the distance.
In fact, many people had already gathered on the official road outside the Zhengxuan Gate. They stared at the neat and orderly army with admiration and excitement on their faces.
Someone suddenly shouted "Long live Dasheng", and these four words were like firecrackers that were lit in an instant, igniting the whole audience, and shouts of "Long live Dasheng" rose into the sky one after another.
The emperor heard the people's heartfelt cheers from afar and smiled faintly.
Wen Yu gave the emperor a thumbs up and praised him generously, "Royal brother is really a good emperor loved by all the people. He is like a little cow traveling around the world, being awesome wherever he goes."
emperor:……
If you don’t know how to praise, you don’t have to.
Soon, the army finally appeared in the eyes of all the court officials.
Lu Ren was dressed in black armor and holding a spear. The calmness, determination and high spirits between his brows were blended very skillfully.
He dismounted his horse and walked as fast as the wind. After glancing at Wen Yu inconspicuously, he said in a loud voice: "Lu Ren has lived up to the expectations of His Majesty and has returned victoriously with his army!"
"Good, good, good!" The emperor was overjoyed and helped him up personally. "You are worthy of being General Lu. I have prepared a celebration banquet to welcome you and the army, and reward you according to your merits!"
"On behalf of all the soldiers, I would like to thank His Majesty for his grace and reward."
Only officials of the third rank and above were qualified to attend the celebration banquet. The rest of the ministers who came to welcome the army and were below the third rank were required to return home immediately.
Wen Yu looked at the scene of a wise king and virtuous ministers in front of her, and had already guessed what exciting scenes would happen at the celebration banquet.
But a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. She is standing on a boat, so she should go ashore and wait and see.
Wen Yu then stepped forward and pulled the emperor's sleeve: "Royal brother, I will not attend the celebration banquet. I got up too early today. I want to go back and catch up on some sleep."
As soon as these words were spoken, the emperor readily agreed. This time, when rewarding people for their merits, Lu Ren must be given a marriage. If the imperial sister were present, things might change. After all, Yu Yi had already reported to him about the imperial sister's evil intentions.
It would be better to go back to sleep so that he would have less worries.
Once the imperial edict is issued and the dust settles, the imperial sister's evil intentions will be dead.
Lu Ren was originally a little puzzled as to why the princess didn't attend his celebration banquet, but when he heard that she was going back to catch up on some sleep, he instantly understood and couldn't help but chuckle with a hint of helplessness and indulgence.
He was already very satisfied that the princess was willing to get up at noon to pick him up.
How could I disturb the princess' sleep?
