The palace concubine is charming and chaotic: the country is still the same

Chapter 224 The country is fixed, Mu Piaoyu's loyalty (6)

The first year of Kangwen, March.

The new emperor, Su Tianyou, succeeded to the throne, respected Xia Lanyue as the empress dowager, and listened to the government behind the curtain.

In that year, Xia Lanyue became the Empress Dowager of the Wei Kingdom at the age of 24.

She is not only the youngest empress dowager in the history of the Wei state, but also the most glorious woman in the Wei state. Of course, these are things to come.

After Su Tianyou ascended the throne, the entire government fell to Xia Lanyue. She immediately returned the 40 military power of Wei State to Mu Piaoyu, appointed him as the commander-in-chief, and led the troops to Qi State to support Li Fengyan.

Mu Piaoyu took the order and didn't stop there, put on his battle armor and led one hundred thousand Mu's troops to the border of Qi State to join Li Fengyan's army.

Mu Piaoyu just arrived at the front line, and the morale of Wei's army increased greatly. In just a few months, Wei's army was in full swing, and Qi's army retreated in succession.

In the second year of Kangwen, May.

The army of Wei broke through the imperial city of Qi State and bloodbathed the capital of Qi State for three days and three nights. Mu Piaoyu personally took the head of the emperor of Qi State and surrendered to Qi State.

In the second year of Kangwen, June.

Mu Piaoyu led the army back to the court, and the people cheered along the road, showing what the people wanted.
-
Outside the Chaoyang Gate, civil and military officials greeted each other on both sides, and everyone had different expressions.

Xia Lanyue was holding the two-year-old Su Tianyou, standing at the top, staring deeply at Mu Piaoyu's only way into the palace, until his figure on a white horse appeared in sight, her lips Outline a shallow arc.

The person on the horse was getting closer and closer, and the weather-stained cheeks came into her eyes, and her heart was suddenly so peaceful.

Mu Piaoyu sat on the horse and walked slowly towards the palace gate. Since the moment Xia Lanyue's figure came into his eyes, his eyes had never left.There was a faint warmth on the face that had always been cold and resolute, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was so obvious, but he didn't seem to notice it.

"Emperor, go and welcome the general back in triumph." Xia Lanyue's voice was gentle yet majestic.

At this time, Su Tianyou, who was over two years old, was wearing a little dragon robe, looking at the person in front of him, although he didn't know who he was, but he obeyed his mother's words very much, and walked towards him with small steps. Yu bowed deeply in front of him: "Congratulations to the great general for his triumphant return."

With a faint smile, Mu Piaoyu looked at Su Tianyou who was wearing a dragon robe in front of her. She hadn't seen him for more than a year, and she seemed to have changed again.There was ignorance on his fair face, and his big eyes were looking at him curiously, and his brows and eyes looked like Su Chen.

"I see the emperor." He also bowed to Su Tianyou, then took his hand and walked in front of Xia Lanyue.

Xia Lanyue looked at Mu Piaoyu and Su Tianyou's holding hands, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became more and more obvious. Looking into Mu Piaoyu's deep eyes, she said softly, "I'm glad you came back safely."

Mu Piaoyu looked at the tenderness in her eyes. He hadn't seen her for more than a year. He had so much to say to her on the front line, but now that he met her, he seemed to have lost his words, and could only quietly look at the woman in front of her. She couldn't help laughing.

The officials present were all surprised that Mu Piaoyu had always been taciturn and cold-hearted in their eyes, but now she smiled so warmly in front of the Queen Mother.Can't help but secretly think of the rumors circulating in the palace, maybe there is really an affair between the two...

Although everyone thought so in their hearts, they didn't dare to say more.

Now the Empress Dowager listens to the government behind a curtain, in charge of the life and death power of the Wei State, and holds the king's title in her hand, the chief confidentiality.

Mu Piaoyu is the number one hero of the Wei State with a large army in his hands. He has countless disciples, a lot of party members, and power in the government.

"Go to the palace. The Ai family has prepared a banquet in the Chang'an Palace to welcome the general and celebrate his triumphant return." Xia Lanyue took Su Tianyou from Mu Piaoyu's hand, and led Mu Piaoyu into the palace with a smile.

Mu Piaoyu didn't say much, but followed Xia Lanyue's footsteps and entered the palace surrounded by all the officials.

At that moment, he was vaguely a high-ranking general, but he was always behind Xia Lanyue, waiting silently, never changing.
