Chapter 367
Jiang Heng finished handling the trivial matters in Songzhou, and handed over the remaining defeated soldiers to Zhao Bin and Wu Quan for disposal.He returned home to pack his luggage, told the butler to take good care of Wei Wang's mansion, and rode back to Chang'an from Songzhou on horseback that day.

After traveling day and night for more than 20 days, I finally rushed back to Chang'an the day before the winter solstice.

After passing the moat, walking into the city gate, and looking at the prosperous streets on Chang'an Avenue, I was really relieved.He didn't have time to look more, he grabbed the reins and went straight back to Prince Wei's Mansion in Chang'an.

He didn't inform anyone when he came back, not even Queen Zhuang.The steward of the house was surprised when he saw him come back, and he thought he was blind and misread, "Wei, King Wei? Did you come back?"

He handed over the horse to the servant, and strode into the courtyard, "Where's Li Hong? Let him come out to meet the king."

Although he was exhausted on the road, he didn't care about taking a rest, because Gein had a more important thing at the moment.

Li Hong came back earlier than him. Calculating the time, he should have been back for half a month.

The steward hadn't recovered from the shock, so he hurriedly sent someone to call Li Hong.Jiang Heng walked to the main hall and sat down. After more than half a month of eating and sleeping in the open air, the arc between his eyebrows and eyes became more cold and hard, with vicissitudes in his leisurely way. He was huge, and when he sat on the Eight Immortals Chair, the wide chair instantly seemed smaller.

Not long after, Li Hong came to him. On the way, he heard that King Wei was back. He still didn't believe it. When he saw it, he almost didn't kneel on the ground. "King Wei, why are you back?"

Didn't you say that Songzhou has been fighting again and again?Didn't you say that King Wei is very busy?
Jiang Heng explained succinctly: "This king and Wu Quan and Zhao Bin took the initiative and cleaned them up. The rest are remnants of defeated soldiers, so this king will hand over to Wu Quan and Zhao Bin."

Li Hong understood, "My lord is wise, can I ask my subordinates to inform the emperor and queen that you have returned?"

He shook his head, "No need for now."

After taking a sip of tea, he stood up and waved back the steward, "How is Tao Wei?"

Li Hong has been paying attention to Tao Yao's movements recently. Recently, she has only been in and out of Tao's Mansion and Duke Chu's Mansion, and has not been to other places.

Jiang Heng got up and walked out, feeling a little overwhelmed, "I'm going to see her."

Before taking two steps, she was called by Li Hong: "My lord, the princess went to Puning Temple to offer incense today and just left the city gate. You won't be able to see her when you go to the Tao Mansion."

Jiang Heng paused, "Going to burn incense?"

Li Hong told him: "Young Master Tao married Jing Zhaoyin's daughter before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and was diagnosed with pregnancy last month. Today, the princess accompanied her to the mountain to offer incense, perhaps because she wanted to pray to the Buddha."

Tao Jing already has a child.

Jiang Heng's heart was a little heavy, and he wanted to see Tao Wei and his little white tofu right away.So he asked his servants to prepare the horses, and he walked out: "This king is also going to Puning Temple."

The servants led the horse to the gate of the palace, Jiang Heng got on the horse and went directly to Puning Temple.Less than a quarter of an hour after he came back, he left again without even taking a sip of tea.
