Chapter 165
When Chang Shi was sweating profusely, he found Chen Xiujian, he was drinking and listening to ditties with his legs crossed in the brothel.

"Your Highness, don't drink. Hurry up and go back to the mansion!" He pulled his neck and said, "The imperial decree came from the mansion..."

Holy shit?

Chen Xiujian drank a little too much, so he picked up his glass and threw it at his housekeeper, "Disgusting! Get lost!"

Chang Shi didn't dare to hide, and reminded him again.

Chen Xiujian finally came to his senses, and the wine suddenly sobered up.

He got up gruntingly, and stared at his old housekeeper in disbelief: "What's going on, what imperial decree will come to our house?"

Chen Xiujian's biological mother was just a maid in the palace.Emperor Changxing once messed up after drinking, and that's why he was born.

If the mother's family is not visible, Chen Xiujian will not fight.

He had already made the mental preparation that he would be an ordinary prince in this life and would never be promoted to prince.

Chang Shi hurried over and whispered a few words in his ear.

Chen Xiujian's eyes lit up, and he ran out.

"Your Highness," the elder Chang Shi shouted while beating his chest and stamping his feet, "Clothes, fasten your clothes first! Be careful, be sure!"

After returning to the mansion to accept the imperial decree, Chen Xiujian believed it was true.

He looked left and right, and there was only Chang Shi who had just broken his knee, and there was no one to discuss with him.

"Your Highness, although you are the emissary to go out of the city on behalf of His Majesty, it is mainly the work of the Ministry of Rites to welcome the triumphant team. How about asking Fan Shangshu for advice?"

Chen Xiujian hurriedly brought a few bottles of good wine to visit the Minister of Rites, but Fan Wen trained him like a grandson.

In the evening, he returned to the Prince's Mansion with a dark face.

Chang Shi greeted him with a face full of shame, "Your Highness, the old minister just found out that Fan Shangshu hates people who are greedy for drinking and making mistakes..."

The so-called one emperor and one courtier.Since he was working in the prince's mansion, Chang Shi was tied to his master, and he was both prosperous and ruined.

Chen Xiujian has always felt that he is only worthy of being an ordinary prince waiting to die, and his long history is also disheartened.Usually he is only responsible for the affairs of the family, and he doesn't care about the outside world, and he doesn't even know much about some well-known things.

Although Fan Wen is old-fashioned, he always understands the overall situation and doesn't care about the past.

In the next two or three days, he earnestly taught Chen Xiujian all kinds of etiquette when he went out of the city to greet him.

Chen Xiujian didn't dare to be careless, and studied conscientiously and meticulously.

For a while, the two coexisted peacefully.

Today, God is beautiful.

At noon, Chen Xiujian rode a tall horse and led all the civil and military officials out of Xingji City vigorously, and greeted them ten miles away in person.

Ren Ning recognized him, and he and Li Hebai got off the horse and bowed their hands in salute.

The team still had a few days before returning to Xingji City. The Ministry of Rituals had already sent someone to send over the detailed regulations of the Triumph Ceremony, and taught and corrected them by hand, so they continued to return to Beijing.

Guards of honor, setting off firecrackers, playing triumphant music, singing triumphant songs...

The gongs and drums are loud and the momentum is huge.

Chen Xiujian was a prince after all, although it was the first time he saw such a scene, his heart was full of excitement, but he was not afraid.

Holding the imperial decree, he praised the returning soldiers fiercely according to the colorful text on it.

After finally finishing the imperial decree, Ren Ning, Li Hebai and others thanked the emperor.Only then did the two teams join forces, turned around and headed towards Xingji City.

Star City.

The north-south Zhuque Street was full of taciturn imperial guards, one post at five steps and one sentry at ten steps.

Both sides of the street were densely packed with common people, all of them were full of pride and talking, it seemed a bit more lively than the parade of champions three days ago.

On the Drunken Immortal Building facing the street near the south gate, Ji Xiang held a basket full of petals in his arms and looked south with his neck stretched.

"Ma'am, why hasn't the triumphant team arrived yet?" She didn't know how many times she asked, and she was so anxious that she was overwhelmed.

"Don't worry, it should be here soon." Yingpan sat at the table and sipped tea slowly.

After the No. [-] scholar paraded through the streets, she immediately asked Ji Xiang to come over and book this box with a good view, so that she could see her husband who had returned triumphantly for the first time.

Now that Ren Ning was about to return to the capital, although she was burning with anxiety, she sat calmly and did not show it in front of the maid.

I don't know how long it took, and when Yingpan was about to pour half a pot of tea, the sound of gongs and drums finally sounded from the south.

Whoa!
"Ma'am, listen!" Ji Xiang jumped three feet high, "It's Kaile!"

call!
Yingpan, who had been sitting still, rushed over impatiently.

Looking south, the sight was blocked by the high city wall.

"Don't worry, ma'am!" Jixiang smiled, and comforted the master in turn: "The team should be crossing the moat. They should be entering the city soon."

"En." Yingpan nodded.

The moat of Star Ji City is very wide.It is a part of the Xinglan Grand Canal, enough to drive two large passenger ships side by side.So it takes time to cross the river.

Boom!

At this moment, the box door rang.

"Guest, excuse me." The waiter's polite voice came in: "There are too many guests outside. I wonder if you can add five more guests to your box?"

Yingpan frowned, and said auspiciously, "I'm sorry. We are female customers, so it's not convenient."

The shop waiter breathed a sigh of relief: "Girl, please rest assured, these guests are all ladies."

Before knocking on the door, he naturally checked the gender of the guests in the box.

"If the girl doesn't mind, we will refund some of the deposit to you as compensation." The waiter added.

Jixiang was furious: "Bastard, are we the ones who lack that little money?"

"Auspicious!" Ying Pan glared at the servant girl, then looked left and right at the empty boxes and terraces, "Second brother, invite them in."

Jixiang stomped his feet in anger, and slowly moved over to open the door.

Five girls in luxurious dresses and veils covered their faces and led their maidservants to file in.

"Thank you ma'am!"

"Sorry to bother you."

Several people apologized one after another.

"It's okay." Yingpan smiled and waved his hands: "To be convenient to others is to be convenient to oneself."

Boom boom!
At this time, the sound of gongs and drums outside suddenly became louder.

Yingpan's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly looked outside again.

The five people who had just entered the box also walked over with a soft cry.

The window sill of this box is very big, there are a few more people standing, and it is not crowded at all.

Deserved.

Three majestic horses walked out of the tall city gate side by side.In the middle is Chen Xiujian, accompanied by Ren Ning and Li Hebai.

wow.

The people nearby cheered all of a sudden.

"Wow, the generals are so handsome and young."

"Tsk tsk, this is called a hero out of youth. Let's see which small countries with no eyesight dare to provoke us."

……

"Ma'am," Jixiang's eyes lit up, and he shouted happily, "The ones holding the Xingluo military flag on the right are Young Master and Zhuifeng. They are so majestic!"

She yelled and scattered a handful of flower petals like a maiden scattered flowers, and then quickly handed the flower basket to the master.

Yingpan nodded but did not accept the flower basket.

She cupped her hands to her lips, and shouted loudly with a smile on her face: "Master!"

The female voice was clear and full of joy, and instantly overwhelmed the turbulent voices below.

Everyone subconsciously raised their heads in search of prestige.

Ren Ning quickly recognized his daughter-in-law.

He wasn't surprised either.

After all, Yingpan is a girl from the grassland, warm and generous.It is basically impossible for her to hide somewhere as an affectionate husband stone like other Yunchui women.

Just because of the triumphant ceremony, Ren Ning couldn't answer, but could only slightly nodded with a smile on his face, and then continued to move forward.

The other girls in the private room didn't expect Yingpan to come, they were caught off guard and couldn't hide.

In front of the eyes of countless people, they all blushed.Fortunately, they all wore veils, otherwise they would have to be ashamed to crawl into the ground.

"Are you my sister-in-law?" Ren Xi, who was next to her, sprinkled flower petals down while looking at Yingpan in amazement.
