The counterattack of the waste son

Ye Wu and his eldest son, Ye Weiming, just entered the gate not long ago, and the two of them are now instructing their subordinates to unload the truck.Since there is no major battle at the border now, they will also go to the mountains to hunt and kill some animals in their spare time.

Sometimes large-scale hunting activities are held regularly.On the one hand, it allows the officers and soldiers to get drills, and at the same time, it can improve the food for the soldiers, and it can also relieve the fatigue of the soldiers who practice all day long.It can be said to serve multiple purposes.

Now that they came home from the barracks, they would naturally pick some up and bring them back.These prey, which are usually hard to see, are very good whether they are given as gifts or enjoyed by their own family members.

In fact, the two of them didn't need to worry about these things in person. The housekeeper, Lao Pang, had already handled them in an orderly manner.The reason why they stayed here and did not go in was actually waiting for someone to come out to greet them.

Ye family is a military family, and the sons and daughters of the family are basically stationed in the army.When there is no war, you must guard the border, and when there is a war, you must go to the battlefield.So every time I go out and return, the whole family attaches great importance to it.

Even if it is not a time of war, Ye Wu, as the general of soldiers and horses, has been guarding the border all year round, which is a great achievement.Every time he came back, the family would arrange someone to welcome him at the city gate, and even the whole family came out to welcome him when he got home.

But today when they came back, the treatment they received was quite different from before.

When they were approaching the city gate before, they saw people's heads scurrying around the city gate, and knew that they were the people who came to greet them, so Ye Wu and Ye Weiming were very proud, as if they had returned from meritorious service and straddled the streets.

After walking in, I saw many civil and military ministers standing at the gate of the city. They were all chief officials or adjutants of the various yamen of the empire. These ministers of the court and the central government were all here to welcome Marshal Ye and his son who came back from the border to visit their relatives.

Standing in front of them was Yue Yunwu, the fourth prince of the empire.The most prestigious prince in the empire came here in person.

And this is not a triumphant return from war, but just an ordinary return home to visit relatives. Unexpectedly, the emperor sent the most proud prince to greet him.It seems that Ye Family's current status is really extraordinary.

Seeing so many ministers of civil and military affairs coming to greet him, even the prince of the empire stood here to greet them in person, both Ye Wu and his son, including the personal guards following behind, were very dignified.

Seeing that the people they greeted had already arrived, Yue Yunwu took a few steps, came to Yewu and bowed and said: "My nephew welcomes Marshal Ye back to the court. meet."

"Haha, Your Highness, you're being polite. I'm just going home to visit my relatives by my father's order. I really don't dare bother Your Highness and everyone to come and greet me." Ye Wu said politely.As he spoke, he got off his horse and brought Ye Weiming over to meet the people who greeted them.

"It should be, it should be," everyone responded to him being so polite.

Such a luxurious welcome lineup used to be only available when he had won a big battle, but now he only gets this kind of treatment when he goes home to visit his relatives, which makes Ye Wu feel a little smug.

Ye Weiming, who was by his side, did the same. It was the first time he had received this kind of treatment, and he was very proud at the moment.

Greeting at the city gate is actually just a greeting etiquette, showing respect and importance to the generals ahead.It's not really up to these people to welcome them home.Generally, after this courtesy program ends, the people who came to greet each other dispersed separately.They are then welcomed back home by the people who lead their own families.

Now that Ye Wu and Ye Weiming are going home, although it is not a triumphant return, but just to visit relatives, but out of the importance of the Ye family, the emperor arranged a grand welcome event, and in the end the welcome event hosted by the imperial prince was very successful. Ye Wu and Ye Weiming were also very happy.

Now that the official reception procedures have been completed, according to the usual situation, people sent by the Ye family will come forward to greet them, and then lead them back to the Ye family.And these ministers who greeted each other went back to their homes and looked for their mothers.

Ye Wu naturally knew that these people came to greet them just as a formality, and then they would go home separately, and he would be accompanied by the people sent by the Ye family to go home.

He smiled and shook hands with these people one by one, as farewell, everyone hurriedly returned their greetings, and then waited for the generalissimo to be taken away by the Ye family, and after the protagonist left, they could go back separately.

After Ye Wu happily said goodbye to these people, he turned his head and found that there was no one else except the minister and the prince.In the past, the Ye family would send a team to pick him up in a splendid manner, but today no one came.

At this time, everyone also discovered this situation, and they were a little dazed for a while, not understanding what was going on.Didn't the Ye family get the news?Or what did the Grand Marshal of the Empire do to make his father, the old prince, Ye Tian angry, so he didn't send anyone to greet him?

The dignified Marshal of the Empire came home, and all the civil and military officials from the court came, but there was no one to welcome him at home. This situation made Ye Wu very embarrassed.Moreover, it was his father who was in charge at home, so even though he was treated like this, he didn't even have the right to be angry.

For a while, I could only stand here stupidly, not knowing what to do next.Should I go home by myself or should I stand here and wait for my family to come?

After all, he is also the marshal of the empire, and he came back from the border. Now he returns home in such a disheveled state, he always feels too aggrieved.And if he goes home by himself, it will make people feel that his father is not thinking about things, and he will have a bad reputation for his father.

But if you just wait here, what if there is no one from the family?Can I still live here at the city gate?

The more he thought about it, the more entangled he became, Ye Wu really didn't know what to do for a while.Seeing that his father was in such a difficult situation, Ye Weiming immediately thought of the problem.

It's okay for them to go home by themselves, but they are afraid that someone with a heart will use this matter to hype it up, saying that their grandfather doesn't respect the imperial marshal, he doesn't respect the imperial soldiers, and he doesn't even send someone to welcome the marshal when he returns home.Such words will damage the honor of the Ye family.But waiting here is not a good idea.

The father and son were in a dilemma at the same time, standing here thinking about it but not knowing what to do.

If the two protagonists didn't leave, the other ministers who were welcoming them couldn't leave first, so they had to stand here with them.

Just now everyone even said goodbye, but now they can't say goodbye.Everyone can only stand there dumbfounded.

I wanted to say a few words to ease the embarrassing atmosphere, but no one could find what to say.So a group of imperial ministers could only stand foolishly at the gate of the city with the father and son.
