At noon, Su Li had lunch at the Duke's Mansion and returned to the Champion's Mansion before the old lady took a nap.
When the carriage reached the center of Changming Street, a mighty army came from not far ahead.
Xiao Sanzi hurriedly pulled the carriage to the side and stopped. Without waiting for Su Li to ask, he said to the carriage, "Madam, it's the Zhendong General's troops coming from the front."
Half a month ago, I heard that Dongyang State promised to cease fire within ten years, and the General Zhendong who was guarding Dajin and Dongyang State was about to return to the court.
Now, when we see the flags with the Zhendong Army printed on them held high in the army, we know that the Zhendong General has returned to the capital.
Su Li lifted the curtain and looked out. The streets were already lined with people, and many carriages with people like Su Li in them had pulled over.
On the road ahead was a huge army approaching slowly.
Su Li knew that it was the army of General Duan, the General who guards the east. The original owner's second brother, Su Jin, was a fourth-rank Zhaowu General under General Duan.
In the original novel, Su Jin came to Beijing during the army's return to the court.
I think Su Jin is in that team now.
Su Li opened the carriage door and jumped out: "Park the carriage, let's go to Mingyue Restaurant."
The place where their carriage was parked was just diagonally opposite the Mingyue Restaurant, so it was very close to the restaurant.
They booked a private room on the second floor. After the master and servants went in, Su Li ordered a pot of good tea and some snacks. Then he walked to the window and watched the long line of people slowly passing through the street below the window. The people in the line were either riding tall horses or following on foot.
Su Li searches for Su Jin based on the original owner's memory.
Of course, according to Su Jin's position in the original book, he should be riding a horse, so her eyes only swept over those who were riding horses.
In the original owner's memory, Su Jin was a handsome and free-spirited young man. He had been obsessed with martial arts since he was a child, and his biggest dream was to join the army to fight the enemy and defend the border.
While Su Li was looking for him, she was thinking that Su Jin had left home to join the army five years ago and was now nineteen years old. His appearance might be different from what the original owner remembered.
"Ma'am, are you looking for someone?"
Seeing Su Li like this, Xiao Sanzi asked curiously.
Xiaowu also looked at her curiously.
Su Li nodded: "Well, my brother from my mother's side is probably in this team, I'll look for him..."
Before he could finish his words, Su Li saw a familiar figure.
Su Jin.
The boy looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old. Even when riding a horse, one could tell that he had a slender and well-proportioned figure and handsome features. He had a tougher temperament than the original owner remembered. The rest of him had not changed much, so Su Li recognized him at a glance.
"Did you see that? That handsome young man riding the black horse is my second brother."
The young man is full of vigor and has a bright smile.
Su Li couldn't help but think that in the original novel, Su Jin was also like this, full of vigor and joy, thinking that she could see her elder sister whom she hadn't seen for several years in the capital, but she didn't expect that the original owner had already been killed.
Even now, his real eldest sister is no longer around...
Xiao Sanzi and Xiao Wu followed Su Li's line of sight and saw Su Jin. Xiao Wu smiled and said, "So that's my uncle. He's as handsome as my wife."
The third child agreed repeatedly: "Yes, she is really beautiful."
Although he doesn't look like the lady, they are both equally beautiful. Perhaps one looks like the lady's father and the other looks like the lady's mother.
Su Li curled up the corners of her mouth. Not to mention that the original owner's parents were both good-looking, the original owner, including her two younger brothers, were also very good-looking.
"Little Third Son, remember your uncle's appearance and wait for him at the palace gate later to take him back to the No. 1 Scholar's Mansion."
The direction the army was heading was exactly where the palace was.
Over the years, the Dongyang Kingdom has repeatedly provoked wars of varying sizes on the border, but in the past year it was repeatedly defeated and finally declared a ceasefire.
The General Zhendong and a group of generals had made great contributions, so they had to enter the palace and enjoy a military banquet. They probably wouldn't be able to leave the palace so soon.
The third child chuckled and replied, "Yes, ma'am."
With his uncle's outstanding appearance, he remembered him at a glance and there was no way he would forget him.
Only after the entire army had left did Su Li leave the Mingyue Restaurant and return to Zhuangyuan Mansion.
