The salted fish couple is fleeing famine

Chapter 365 Honorable Return
The prefect of Anzhou received the news before they arrived.

After hearing from the people below that they saw the dragon flag, they were so excited that they ran to the beach to greet them.

The spies of the imperial court were faster than them. They had already rushed eight hundred miles and rushed into the capital.

"Report, report, eight hundred miles to hurry up, the Daxia navy has returned to the court!"

After six days and five nights, and five fast horses killed, the first-hand news finally arrived at the palace.

In the Jinluan Hall, Xia Hongdi, who was in the morning court, received the news. He was in disbelief at first and was confused for a while.

Then he laughed heartily: "Hahaha, good! Good! Good! I'm back in time for the Chinese New Year! Good to be back!"

He quickly announced this great news to the civil and military officials of the court. It is better to enjoy it alone than to enjoy it all.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, our Daxia navy has returned safely. Long live my emperor! Long live my emperor!"

"I'm glad, I'm glad, I will welcome these warriors at the gate of the city together with the prince and all the ministers!"

"It should be, it should be. I haven't seen you for three years. Huang Shangshu and others have done a great job for their hard work!"

The ministers understood the emperor's mood very well and kept saying nice things to him.

When the harem got the news, Empress Gao covered her mouth and burst into tears with laughter.

The personal maid kept congratulating her: "Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations, our uncle is back safely!"

Empress Gao wiped the corners of her eyes: "Reward, reward, there are rewards for you, everyone from top to bottom of Kunning Palace will be rewarded!"

"Thank you, Master!"

Cuihua can get information faster than the imperial court.

I have been suppressing my secret preferences for a few days, and finally waited for the court to report.

All the servants in Uncle Zhongqin's mansion received three months' silver reward, and the servants were so excited that they celebrated the New Year in advance.

"Mom, mother, we want to go welcome dad and brothers. We don't want to wait at home."

Yuan Wentao (Liu Tou) was so anxious that his feet turned red.

Yuan Wenyuan (Wutou) also nodded desperately, looking at his mother with longing eyes: "Mom, let's go together, let's go together!"

Cuihua also misses her husband. Not only her children can't sit still at home, but also Old Yuan Tou can't sit still.

He said that he could take his grandson and guards to meet his eldest son.

The nearest Gugang port from the capital is a five-day journey by horse-drawn carriage.

How could Cuihua feel comfortable letting Old Yuan Tou take several children there?

I was so troubled that I really had no choice.

Cuihua gritted her teeth, counted the days, and took her sons to pick up her husband.

Like the uncle's house, the nobles in the capital who got the news took action one after another.

The carriages leading to the outside of Nancheng came one after another, and those who were familiar had to say hello.

Zhongqin Town is very lively.

People living in low-rent housing told each other:
"Our uncle is back, our uncle is back safely!"

"Hahaha, we have to have a good talk with those bastards. What a great joy!"

"Ouch, my old lady will burn incense and worship Buddha on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month. All she wants is for our Daxia navy and Uncle Zhongqin to return safely as soon as possible!"

This is a group of ordinary people who, although they live at the bottom, are working hard to live with hope and are grateful.

It was the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month in the eighth year of Tianshun's reign. It was snowing heavily, and my hands and feet were freezing even if I didn't go out.

At noon, Gugang is crowded with people.

These are the people who came to see the excitement despite the heavy snow after hearing the news. The officials of the imperial court and the soldiers in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing have been waiting for a long time. The weather is cold and the heart is hot.

"It's coming, it's coming, our navy is really back, I saw the dragon flag!"

"Wow, so many boats!"

"It's been almost three years. It's not easy. We all thought they would never come back!"

"What are you talking about? This team is led by Commander Gao. Our navy will kill all the Japanese, not to mention the barbarians overseas!"

"That's right, that's right!"

Far away, there was a horse-drawn carriage parked slightly away from the crowd, with a charcoal stove burning in the carriage.

On a cold day, the wind in the port is very strong.

There were two little heads who were not afraid of the cold. They crowded in front of the car window and watched with gusto.

"Mom, they said they saw a big ship and my father will be back soon, hahaha."

"Quickly wake up your snot, Xiao Liu, are you frozen? Mom, your nose is dripping with snot!"

"It's okay, Mom, a manly man, what are you afraid of being so cold?" Yuan Wentao couldn't care less about the runny nose, he was so stubborn that even a nosebleed couldn't stop him from seeing his father.

Yuan Wenyuan is a small stove himself. When his mother said this, he even held his brother's hand.

From far to near, the huge fleet traveled for a full hour before reaching the shore.

The frozen officials who had been waiting for a long time arranged their clothes and went to greet them.
"Dad, dad! I'm coming to pick you up!"

Two naughty boys over seven years old ran quickly towards the black-faced man in the crowd, who was not too tall and not tall.

The one who was half a head taller ran the fastest, and in the blink of an eye, he overtook the official at the front.

The man with a black face who came towards me was startled at first.

Wait until you see the appearance of the child running towards you.

He smiled happily and ran forward, picking up the naughty boy.

"Hey, Xiao Wu! Dad's third son, you are here to pick him up! Good son! You have grown a lot taller, and dad can hardly hold you!"

The child refused to obey. He hugged his father's neck tightly, his voice was choked, and he shouted softly:

"Dad, Dad! Are you really back? Xiao Wu is not dreaming, right?"

The slightly shorter urchin, who was more than ten steps behind, was also picked up by two tall and strong teenagers:
"Sixth brother, sixth brother! Why are you here? Do you miss your brother?"

The child laughed first and shouted loudly:

"Second brother, you miss me so much that my mother is here to pick you up! Woo hoo, you are so bad. You ran away without taking us two with you. I'm different from you. It's better! Woo woo."

The more he talked about it, the sadder he became. He almost forgot what his brothers looked like. He was really a bad brother.

The two older ones quickly apologized:

"Oh, it's my fault. My brothers have to apologize to Xiaoliu. Xiaoliu, please don't cry. My brothers have brought you many treasures. Let's not cry, okay?"

The more she cries, the louder she cries, which makes her feel extremely wronged.

What can I say? No matter what gifts my brothers give me, it won't work. No matter how many promises I make, it won't work.

He had to cry out the grievances he had hidden for three years before he would give up!
The people who were watching were all enjoying themselves. This family has so many sons!
The officials saw that the uncle's family was having a reunion, so they had no choice but to greet Huang Shangshu: "Master Shangshu, Master Shangshu"

After Gao Huaiyu got off the ship and saw the servants of Duke Wei's mansion, the first thing he asked was: "Is the lady giving birth to a young master or a young lady?"

The servant, whose nose was red from the cold, had red eyes, wiped the corners of his eyes, grinned, and replied loudly:
"Sir, my wife gave birth to a young lady. She is very handsome. They say she looks like you!"

"Hahaha, my wife is really capable!"
