Chapter 367 Outside Desheng Gate
Princess Kunxing brought her son Zhao Wenxian to the outside of Deshengmen today and looked at the endless procession in the distance.
"Mom! Is Dad back?" Zhao Wenxian asked in a baby voice.
"Yes, your father is back and he has caught the enemy. Mother's revenge has been achieved. I will go and tell your grandfather." Princess Kunxing said.
"Wenxian, come to your aunt. Your mother is going to see your father. Your aunt will hold you and take you to see your father. Your father is very majestic!" said Princess Zhaoren.
Today, the entire Kenan Army changed into new uniforms, all wearing red mandarin duck-patterned battle jackets. The entire team looked like a red dragon, crawling along the road.
The army stopped outside the moat. Zhao Xiaofei was wearing a silver-white flying dragon fish scale armor, a purple gold helmet, a red tiger head belt inlaid with silver, a sword of the emperor hanging from his waist, and a white warhorse under his crotch!
It can be said that he is majestic and exudes a heroic spirit.
Zhao Xiaofei dismounted and walked to the front of the welcoming procession. Princess Kunxing stood in the center, with the other ministers lined up behind her.
"I have fulfilled my mission, recovered Shaanxi, and captured the rebel Li Zicheng alive." Zhao Xiaofei didn't want to salute his wife when he saw her, but today she represented the emperor, so he had to kneel on one knee.
"Prince Li, please stand up and don't bow! I am celebrating your success on behalf of the Emperor. Our Ming Dynasty has been on the throne for nearly three hundred years. Our power is felt throughout the country and all the people are subservient to us. Our civil and military achievements are unrivaled in the world. The little rebels destroyed our ancestral temples and endangered our country. The country was ruined, the families were ruined, and the people were displaced. Now we have captured the rebels, all thanks to the bravery of our officers and soldiers, and the unity of the emperor and his subjects. There is hope for the revival of the Ming Dynasty!" Princess Kunxing said.
Zhao Xiaofei stood up, drew his sword, and shouted, "Great Ming will win!"
Tens of thousands of soldiers simultaneously raised their weapons and shouted in unison: "Great Ming will win! Great Ming will win!"
The sound of victory continues, one wave higher than the other.
After he finished shouting, Zhao Xiaofei waved his hand and the soldiers pushed the prison cart of Li Zicheng and Song Xiance Niu Jinxing over.
When Princess Kunxing and Princess Zhaoren saw the sign on the first prison car with the words "Li Zicheng the rebel" written on it, they could hardly hide their excitement.
Zhaoren's hands were shaking slightly. Zhao Wenxian looked at his aunt and said, "Aunt, what's wrong with you? Your hands are shaking!"
Princess Kunxing tried to calm herself, but her hands were clenched so tightly that veins bulged. Her face turned pale, and she wished she could kill Li Zicheng with her sword right now.
At this time, Li Zicheng's hands and feet were not only tied with iron chains, but there was also a collar around his neck with an iron chain on it.
A soldier walked up, picked up the chain, and grabbed Li Zicheng, dragging him down like a dog.
"Are you Li Zicheng?" Princess Kunxing asked coldly.
"Yes, I am the bandit Li Zicheng! You are the wife of Prince Li, Princess Kunxing? You really know how to find a man! If my daughter were older, she would definitely recruit him as her son-in-law. Hahahaha!" Li Zicheng laughed wildly.
Princess Kunxing didn't know when a whip appeared in her hand. She picked up the whip and whipped Li Zicheng hard.
Three consecutive lashes of the whip left Li Zicheng's face covered in blood, making him look even more hideous and terrifying.
After the smoke was finished, Princess Kunxing said, "Take him away and present him as a captive at the Imperial Ancestral Temple tomorrow. I will teach you a lesson about what it means to live a life worse than death!"
Li Zicheng was taken away, and the troops entered the city, then went out from Yongding Gate and rested in the military camp outside the city. Zhao Xiaofei and Zhao Xiaokun entered the palace to accept congratulations from civil and military officials.
After Zhao Xiaofei finished his business in the palace, he went to the harem to see his son first.
Concubine Huang Shufei and Concubine He's bellies were already showing, and according to the rules, Zhao Xiaofei couldn't stay there for too long, otherwise he would be accused of being a promiscuous concubine in the harem.
After quickly reading it, he took Kunxing back to the palace.
Li Sihong and Kou Baimen were waiting for him outside the mansion. Zhao Xiaofei hated these formalities the most.
"Get up quickly, otherwise I won't go to your room at night!" Zhao Xiaofei said with a wicked smile.
"Your Highness!" the two of them said coquettishly and embarrassedly.
Zhao Xiaofei laughed heartily and quickly took Kunxing Zhaoren and Shen Yunying into the mansion.
The main hall was already filled with food and wine. Zhao Xiaofei sat in the center, Kunxing and Zhaoren on either side. Li Sihong, Kou Baimen, and Shen Yunying were supposed to stand according to the rules, but Kunxing allowed them to sit today. The children sat at a separate table, supervised by the maids.
"Husband! This glass is a toast to you on behalf of my father and mother!" Princess Kunxing said, raising her glass.
"Okay!" Zhao Xiaofei raised his glass and drank it all.
"My dear husband, this is a toast to you. Thank you for avenging our family! I'll drink it first as a token of my respect!" Princess Zhaoren said and drank it all, which made her throat hurt from the spicy taste.
Zhao Xiaofei quickly picked up a bite of food for her, and Kunxing couldn't help laughing. The others wanted to laugh but didn't dare. They were all concubines, so how could they dare laugh at the princess?
Zhao Xiaofei said, "I'm really tired from this Western Expedition. I need to rest for a while with my family before heading north to eliminate the Jianlu!"
"My husband, you have pacified most of the world. You can take a good rest now and let other generals go!" said Princess Zhaoren.
"Others? Forget it! Don't start another Battle of Sarhu. By then, I, your husband, won't be able to save Dai Ming!" said Zhao Xiaofei.
Zhaoren thought about it carefully and decided that if he let others do it, he might not lose.
Zhao Wenxian said, "Dad, stop talking. I'm looking forward to eating cake! Mom said that since we won the battle this time, she can make cake for us."
Li Guangzong also nodded, looking at his father with expectant eyes.
"Eat your meal first!" Zhao Xiaofei taught him a lesson with his fatherly demeanor.
Zhao Wenxian and Li Guangzong lowered their heads and quickly ate the rice in their bowls, then asked the nanny to bring the cake.
After having dinner with his family, Zhao Xiaofei went to Princess Kunxing's room. Zhao Xiaofei asked, "How is Qin Xiaomi? How is her health?"
"Very good, I've gained a lot of weight!" Princess Kunxing said calmly.
"As soon as she gives birth, send her out of the palace immediately and let her go find her sister," said Zhao Xiaofei.
"I understand!" Kunxing said.
"Can the government affairs be handled?" Zhao Xiaofei asked.
"Don't worry! I can handle it! Lu Ling is not capable at all, so she basically has to rely on me. Concubine Huang Shu was originally a good helper. Unfortunately, her pregnancy reaction is too severe, and now she can't handle anything and can only lie down." Princess Kunxing said.
"After Concubine Huang Shu gives birth, let her get more involved in government affairs so that you can have some rest. I think your son is in good health and growing strong." Zhao Xiaofei rarely showed a relieved smile.
"Tomorrow, I will personally supervise the execution of Li Zicheng and Song Xiance Niu Jinxing! I can't get rid of the hatred in my heart unless I kill them! I want the executioner to cut them 3,600 times before we are done, otherwise I will make them pay for it!" Princess Kunxing said fiercely.
