Hairpin Phoenix

   Chapter 420 Return (1)

  Su Dalang is in his 40s this year, and now he is a landowner. The proudest thing in my life is having a good sister and giving birth to a daughter.

  The Su family has all sons, only he has daughters. Moreover, the daughter was born with a beautiful appearance. After waiting for another year or two, he went to beg for his younger sister and let her daughter marry the third prince as a concubine.

  The news of Concubine Su's death was like a basin of ice water, which poured Su Dalang completely cold from the inside out.

  Su Rou opened her mouth to ask, but Su Dalang was not in the mood to coax her, she opened her mouth and scolded angrily: "You ask Laozi, who is Laozi asking!"

  Su Rou covered her face with a handkerchief in grievance and kept crying.

  Su Dalang frowned, took a deep breath, and his voice was urgent and fast: "The palace sent someone to deliver the letter, it can't be fake. Your aunt must have an accident."

   "Don't think about anything now, just stay safe. Empress Su is gone, as well as His Royal Highness the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince. They will never leave us alone."

   Speaking of His Royal Highness the Third Prince, Su Rou finally stopped her tears and said in a choked voice, "I don't know when my cousin will return to Beijing."

  Su's family is a foreign family, Li Hao can't ignore it. In a year, I always come to Su's house two or three times. Every time I will send some gold, silver, jade, clothing, jewelry and the like.

  Li Hao has a distinguished status, handsome and extraordinary, both civil and military. As soon as Su Rou's love opened, her heart sprouted quietly. This cousin shouted with sincerity.

  Su Dalang was upset and said impatiently, "I don't know. Go back to your room."

  Su Rou's mouth was flat and she had to go back to her boudoir.

  Su's family has thousands of acres of fertile land, and lives in a large mansion with four entrances. It was a leisurely and comfortable life as a landlord.

  Su Rou is the most favored and favored by her elders in this generation, and she is the best in her family to eat, drink and wear on weekdays. The Su family also hired a female gentleman to teach Su Rou to read, write, play the qin and draw.

   Compared with the top ladies in the capital, Su Rou is a bit worse, but this beautiful face is enough to make up for the rest of the small shortcomings.

   After Su Rou returned to the boudoir, she first cried for her aunt. Then, staring blankly at the bronze mirror, he calculated his thoughts.

  Without her aunt, she wanted to marry her cousin as a concubine, but it was not easy.

  Su's house is just a surface light. There is not even an official in the family. The prince's side concubine is a serious fourth-grade official order. From a small family background, the only thing she can rely on is her cousin's support and compassion for the Su family.

  No one in the family could help her, so she had to find a way to get her cousin to marry her.

  Su Rou brought a painting scroll from the table beside her. Open the scroll, and draw a handsome young man in high spirits.

   Su Rou suddenly blushed, not knowing what to think.

   The girl in the bronze mirror, Xia Fei's cheeks and eyes flashed with a strange brilliance.

  …

   Five days later.

  The sun is high, and the bright sunshine is sprinkled on the wide and tidy streets. On both sides of the street, hawkers shouted loudly from time to time. The people crowded on both sides of the street and kept shouting "His Royal Highness".

  The soldiers wore silver armor and rode steeds. Their faces were tired from long-distance marching, but they were more joyful and proud of returning to Beijing safely.

   They finally came back safely!

   After going through the tragic battlefield, I saw the scene where the corpses were covered with blood and blood. Now, when I returned to the peaceful and peaceful capital, I was so excited that I almost burst into tears on the spot.

   A wide carriage was surrounded in the middle. The fourth prince rode a steed horse and walked in parallel with the carriage, and his handsome face that did not hide his tiredness also had a high-spirited look.

   The fourth prince shouted with great interest: "Second brother, do you hear? So many people are calling for His Royal Highness!"

  The curtain of the carriage was pulled open, revealing a thin, pale, handsome face.

   It is His Royal Highness Li Jing.

   This journey has been rushing and marching, and it is hard work, so there is no need to describe it in detail. Li Jing's original injury was not healed, and he was lying in the carriage all the way, and it was bumpy enough. The whole person lost weight at a speed visible to the naked eye.

   After entering the Great Wei territory for a few days, he received good news from the capital.

   Yan Tuo was stabbed to death, the Yan army was defeated, and the siege of the capital was resolved.

   Hearing the good news, all the soldiers were relieved and smiled.

   Only Li Jing, his heart tightened even more.

  Lu Mingyu led his troops out of the city and succeeded in assassinating Yan Tuo, but was also injured. The battle report will not detail how the Crown Princess was injured, and it will only be mentioned in an understatement. Li Jingxin was frightened and did not sleep for two consecutive nights.

In the end, the fourth prince couldn't stand it any longer, so he opened his mouth and said, "Second brother, the second sister-in-law was injured, but luckily there is no serious danger to her life, so I will take care of it slowly in the future, three months and five months, a year and a half, and there will always be a recovery. The same day as before. If you can't eat or sleep, it's useless except tossing your body."

   "If you go on like this, you will fall down before you return to the capital. When the time comes, won't the second sister-in-law be even more worried when she sees you like this, and won't be able to rest in peace?"

  Li Jing was persuaded to make his eyes turn red, and nodded vigorously. After that, he forced himself to eat and sleep, while lying down to recuperate while continuing to march.

   Fortunately, the danger of the capital has been resolved, and the boulders in everyone's heart have fallen to the ground. Except for His Royal Highness, who was worried, everyone else was in a good mood.

   Hurry up and hurry, and finally make it back to the capital.

  The courtiers who got the news went out of the city early in the morning to greet them. Even the old Qiao Ge came to welcome His Royal Highness in person.

  It is not necessary to elaborate on the excitement and emotion of everyone when they meet.

   Now, the group entered the imperial street and went straight to the palace.

  The moment the familiar palace gate came into view, Li Jing was in a surging mood and his eyes were hot.

   Old Qiao Ge walked to the carriage, cupped his hands and said, "I will welcome Your Highness back to the palace."

Li Jing tried his best to hold back his agitated mood, and said solemnly, "I have been away from Beijing for so long, and I have to go to see the imperial grandmother and mother first, and then to see my wife and children. Please go back first with the elders and your lords. After the great court meeting tomorrow, I will meet with you. Hold a banquet in the palace, and invite hundreds of officials to the banquet."

   Qiao Ge replied with a smile, and then whispered: "His Royal Highness has been working hard all the way with injuries, and I don't know how weak my body is. After returning to the palace, please rest assured, Your Highness, to take care of your body, so as not to fall into the root of the disease."

   Only with a healthy body can you sit on the dragon chair safely. If the root of the disease is left, it will not be good for affecting Shouyuan!

  The concern in Qiao Ge's eyes is clear at a glance.

   Li Jing warmed his heart and replied in a low voice, "Don't worry, grandfather, I know the importance."

   Old Qiao Ge led the ministers to retreat.

  The palace gate opened wide.

  The fourth prince also came over and helped Li Jing move forward. Before taking two steps, two familiar figures had already appeared in front of them, one was hurried by the other: "Ajing, you are finally back!"
