Chapter 80 Farewell
Xiao Yiqing looked at the tall and straight young man in front of him and said comfortingly: "Sure enough, he is imposing, raise your head, and let me have a look!"

Zhuang Wan's heart tightened.

Yan Cheng hesitated for a moment, then slowly raised his head.

Xiao Yiqing looked at this face, feeling familiar, and asked, "What's your name?"

"Return to the Holy Majesty, the last general Li Daniu!"

"Li Daniu?" Xiao Yiqing thought for a while, and his expression relaxed: "Okay, Li Daniu will be made General Hussars, and he will stay in Beijing for appointment."

Yan Cheng hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the last general..."

"Ahem!" Pang Ao coughed twice, and Yan Cheng naturally understood the meaning.

I can only kneel down to thank Shengen: "The last general thanks Shengshang Longen!"

Then back into the array.

Zhuang Wan's heart was beating in her throat, but luckily it was just a false alarm.

Xiao Yi said: "Except King Qi, everyone else should step back!"

Everyone saluted and retreated.

Xiao Yiqing came down from the imperial case and patted Xiao Jingchen on the shoulder: "Father Tiger has no dogs. You fought with me in the north and south when you were five years old. Now you have lived up to my expectations. You have solved the great problem of Nanyi in the Southwest and seized it again." I am very pleased that so much treasure fills the treasury."

Xiao Jingchen said: "It is the son's duty to share the worries of the father and the emperor."

He presented the soldier talisman: "This is the soldier talisman of the Pingnan Army, please have a look at it, Father."

Xiao Yiqing picked up the soldier talisman, looked at it, and handed it back to Xiao Jingchen: "You will continue to be in charge of this soldier talisman, and the number of the Pingnan Army will not change. In the future, you will be able to share my worries."

"Your servant obeys!" Xiao Jingchen said after taking back the military amulet, "It's just that the world is peaceful and there is no war, what does the emperor mean by this?"

"The world is peaceful?" Xiao Yi said: "Have you forgotten who is in Yunzhou? Those restless people are my confidantes after all!"

Xiao Jingchen pondered for a moment and then understood, "Who is the father referring to?"

"These remnants of the previous dynasty may be reborn in the face of the wind at some point, so I have no choice but to let it go!"

Xiao Jingchen said: "Father, those people have been assigned to do hard labor in Yunzhou's rocky mountains for nearly 20 years, and now there are probably not many left. Why should Father kill them all? If the world knows about them, it may damage the reputation of Father's virtuous virtue."

Xiao Yiqing sneered and said: "Do you think they are sincerely surrendering? Hmph! They all hate me and want to eat their flesh. But you just came back from the battle, you should take a good rest! We will talk about this later. By the way, you and Han Yuan Chongzhi The girl's marriage should also be arranged on a good day and auspicious day."

Xiao Jingchen paused, cupped his hands and said, "Everything is up to the father."

Xiao Yiqing nodded: "This matter will be handed over to the Ministry of Rites. You just came back and went to see your mother and concubine. She has been talking about me by my side these days."

"Yes! My son has gone!" Xiao Jingchen bowed and stepped back.

Outside Zhiyang Palace, the maids and eunuchs stood on the ground, Concubine Xian looked outside eagerly, and asked Yun Qing, the close maid from time to time: "Is it time to arrive?"

Yun Qing said: "Young lady, don't worry, I heard that His Majesty left His Highness to talk, I'm afraid it will take some time to come here. It's windy outside, so let's wait in the palace!"

Concubine Yun waved her hand: "I am waiting right here."

Suddenly, a little eunuch cheered: "Your Highness is coming! Your Majesty, Your Highness is coming!"

"Mother Concubine!" Xiao Jingchen ran over, his eyes filled with tears: "I haven't seen you for many years, how is Mother Concubine?"

Concubine Xian was already in tears, speechless with excitement, and tremblingly touched Xiao Jingchen's brows and eyes.

"Mother concubine!"

"Ten years..." Concubine Xian choked up and said, "Chen'er has grown taller, and concubine mother almost doesn't recognize her anymore!"

Yun Qing said: "Your Highness and Empress should stop standing outside, hurry up and enter the hall!"

"Deal with it!" Concubine Xian took Xiao Jingchen's hand: "Come in quickly."

Entering the hall, Xiao Jingchen knelt down on both knees and bowed down: "I wish my mother peace, and may my mother and concubine be blessed and safe!"

"Get up quickly!" Concubine Xian hurriedly said, "Let Mother Concubine take a look."

Xiao Jingchen said with a smile: "Mother and concubine don't have to worry, now that the minister is staying in Beijing, he can visit the palace from time to time."

"Okay, okay!" Concubine Xian hurriedly ordered: "Hurry up and serve tea to the prince."

Yun Qing smiled and said: "Didn't your empress have already prepared His Highness's favorite Longjing before Yu?"

"Look at this palace's memory..." Concubine Xian said, "Bring it up quickly."

"It's rare that the mother concubine still remembers that the son likes to drink Longjing before the rain."

"Your Highness doesn't know, it's not just Dragon Well before the rain." Yun Qing said: "Whether it's the swords that His Highness has used before, or the clothes that His Highness has worn, the lady keeps them, and she has to take them out every day to have a look, looking forward to meeting His Highness." day."

Concubine Xian said: "Yun Qing likes to chatter. It's a pity that you can't use those swords or wear those robes now."

Xiao Jingchen was very moved, "My son and minister are not filial, and have not been filial to my mother and concubine these years."

"Stop talking!" Concubine Xian wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "It's all over."

Xiao Jingchen helped her sit down, "Yes, everything is over."

The mother and son seem to have endless things to say when they get together.

After a while, Concubine Xian asked: "I heard that your father granted you a marriage? Is it Han Yuanchong's daughter?"

Xiao Jingchen nodded.

"That's good! Han Yuanchong is at the top of the court right now. Since your father asked you to marry Shangshufu, he must entrust you with a heavy responsibility. Don't let him down!"

"I understand!" Xiao Jingchen said.

Concubine Xian saw him looking sleepy and asked: "Are you not satisfied with this marriage?"

Xiao Jingchen hesitated for a moment and then said: "I will not hide this from my concubine, my son... already has someone in mind."

Concubine Xian was surprised at first, then smiled and said: "What's the trouble? Ordinary people have three wives and four concubines, let alone the emperor's family. If you let her be a concubine, the Miss Han family will not say anything. "

Xiao Jingchen said: "Kerchen doesn't want her to be a concubine!"

Concubine Xian: "..."

"Which family's daughter is it that makes you so infatuated?"

Xiao Jingchen moved his lips, but he didn't say anything after all, he just said: "Forget it, we'll talk about it later."

Concubine Xian persuaded: "Concubine Mother doesn't want to interfere with your marriage. Whoever you like is your freedom. But you have to remember that you were born in a royal family, and your marriage is destined not to be based on your will. The imperial decree cannot be violated."

"I know!" Xiao Jingchen said, "Mother and concubine, please rest assured, I will definitely put the overall situation first."

"That's good!" Concubine Xian reassured: "Come on, quickly taste this Yuqian Longjing and see if it tastes like the one you drank before."

……

Coming out of the palace, Zhuang Wan felt uneasy, although today's incident was safe and sound, but this capital is like a wolf's lair, Yan Cheng is the little lamb that got in by mistake.

The emperor will investigate his life experience someday, and if he learns the truth, he will kill the grass and root it out.

She tugged on Yan Cheng's sleeve: "Shall we get out of here?"

Yan Cheng said sadly: "I mentioned this matter to General Pang long ago, but he disagreed. Originally, today I wanted to propose to the Holy Majesty to disarm and return home, but was stopped by General Pang. After leaving the palace, he told me, If I raise this matter with the Holy Majesty today, I will definitely be punished for disrespect."

"That's right! The Holy Majesty has just appointed you Hussar General, but you turned your head and brushed off the Holy Will, and you refused in front of so many people and civil and military officials. It's no wonder you weren't punished."

Yan Cheng sighed: "Now I don't know what to do."

"It's better to have a look first, and then talk about it when there is an opportunity. Zhuang Wan reminded: "But you must tell me where you are going and who you want to see in the future. "

"Okay!" Yan Cheng smiled and said, "Are you afraid that I will meet someone?"

"Just leave it alone. You must tell me anyway."

Yan Cheng agreed, and then handed over all the things given today: "These gold and silver are at your disposal."

Zhuang Wan looked at the golden and white gold and silver, and her mood immediately improved.

"Give it all to me?"

Yan Cheng nodded: "It's all yours."

Zhuang Wan's eyes shined, this is a huge sum of money!

She suddenly had the idea of ​​running away again.This money should be enough for her to live a prosperous life.

No, no, how could she do such a heartless thing, and cheat people's money and feelings, this is what people do?
What's more, Yan Cheng is good to her, and he is also a good money-making tool, bah bah, you can't say that, this is his excellence.

That being the case, she stayed for the time being.

As for the future, we can only take one step at a time.

When Xiao Jingchen returned to the camp, Mu Qiulan was waiting for him.

"Is something wrong?"

Mu Qiulan said blissfully, "The servant girl is going back to Shangshu's mansion. I will be able to take care of the prince these days. The servant girl will definitely pray to God every day, and pray that the prince will be happy, safe and happy all his life."

After all, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait!" Xiao Jing called out to her, and took out a jade pendant from his bosom, "You saved this king last time, and you haven't given me anything, just accept it!"

Mu Qiulan waved her hand: "This thing is too expensive, I can't take it."

Xiao Jingchen said lonely: "Could it be, are you going to refuse this?"

Mu Qiulan: "..."

She had no choice but to take it over: "Thank you, my lord!"

Xiao Jingchen turned around and said, "Let's go, a carriage has been arranged for you outside."

Mu Qiulan backed away.

On the carriage, she took out the jade pendant, only to see that it was a concentric knot with the word "Chen Lan" engraved on it...
