Who says sleep is not spiritual practice?

Liu Jie nodded slightly:

"Thank you, Lord."

"In return, the poor monk will help the prince keep an eye on Utuobu and High Priest Tuoba."

King Rejecting Bei smiled confidently, and reminded in a faint voice:

"Remember, don't startle the snake."

"Let Jing Hong think that everything is under his control!"

Chapter 192 See you in Beijing in a month

On the road from Luoxia Town to Wangcheng, a group of people stopped and stopped, spending more than thirty hours.

Since the winter hunting contest was over, most of the soldiers returned to their respective places of garrison, only the cavalry of a thousand men under the command of a few young masters and ladies escorted them all the way.

And the original [-] soldiers, after [-] days of conquest, the casualties reached one-third!

Most of the dead were Jiang Qingzhu and Jiang Qingjian's subordinates, and the two fought the most tough battles. In addition, there was no Haoyue Realm in charge, so the casualties were relatively large.

As for Jiang Qingyu...

In addition to killing a group of people when the traitor was eradicated in Luoxia Town, another 54 soldiers were killed in this battle.

Thirty-six of them were scouts served by the killer Huamanlou.

Some of the bodies of the fallen soldiers have been cremated, and a small number have been put into coffins that have already been prepared.

On the official road, more than 300 coffins lined up in a row, shocking!

For a while, the atmosphere of the march was a bit heavy.

……

On the 28rd of the first month.

noon.

After traveling for nearly a month, the group finally returned to Wangcheng.

The news of Beidi's surrender has already spread, and tens of thousands of people have been out of the city to wait since the early morning, and have been waiting at the gate of the city for several hours, eagerly looking forward to the return of the soldiers.

Suddenly, a carriage came into view.

Immediately afterwards, a row of black armored cavalry surrounded the carriage from far to near like a tide.

"I'm coming!"

"The prince and His Royal Highness are back!"

After seeing the triumphant team, the people kept shouting "King Rejecting the North" and "His Royal Highness", throwing flowers and wine to celebrate warmly!

At the front of the line, Shen Qianjin, the former owner of Xifengju, who had grown into a small mountain, had his eyes slit into a smile.

Compared with a month ago, his figure has become fatter again, and there are four or five more big gold chains around his neck, so that he has to be supported by four or five maidservants when he walks.

Betting on Jiang Qingyu this time made Shen Qianjin a lot of gold and silver!

"If you don't make a song, you're done. It's a blockbuster!"

Around this moment, people were shouting "His Royal Highness", which made Shen Qianjin feel as if he was dreaming. He never imagined that Jiang Qingyu actually took down the whole Beidi after only a short month!

Another state has been added to the land of Chu State!

This is a happy event that has been rarely seen in decades!

And as a businessman, Shen Qianjin also immediately thought about how to make a profit from it!

He planned to discuss with Jiang Qingyu to see if the two of them could jointly open a brothel in Beidi that was similar to General Zui.

Is it profit...

Thirty-seven points.

Seventy percent of them naturally belonged to Jiang Qingyu and Prince Jubei's residence.

"Thirty percent is not a lot!"

A greedy smile appeared on Shen Qianjin's face.

but……

The next moment, he restrained his smile wisely.

Because just as people were shouting "His Royal Highness is mighty", "Your Highness is a hero" and other generous words of praise, Jiang Qingyu, who was dressed in a white robe, stepped down from the carriage with a face full of shame.

At the same time, the soldiers in front gave way.

next moment.

Rows of coffins appeared in people's sight.

Each coffin records the names, birthplaces, biography and military exploits of the fallen soldiers.

Next to the coffin, there were teams of soldiers holding clay pots containing ashes.

For a while, everyone was silent.

"Bei Di surrendered, the Northern Territory won! Chu State won!"

"but……"

"There were also sacrifices."

Jiang Qingyu supported the first coffin with her hands, and said in a heavy tone:

"Today's victory was won by countless soldiers, so Qingyu is ashamed to be a hero."

"All the soldiers of the Anbei Army in the three northern states, they are the real heroes!"

This statement came out.

The group of people who had a bad impression of Jiang Qingyu suddenly changed their opinion of him a lot.

"It seems that our son is still a kind person who cares about his subordinates!"

"You're only 19 years old, but you don't take credit for it, it's rare!"

"I used to hear people say that His Royal Highness is useless, but today I saw it with my own eyes and realized that those people are talking fart!"

"Sister, you are a girl, you should pay attention to what you say when there are many people!"

"Ah, yes, yes, you must pay attention! Otherwise, His Royal Highness will listen to it and think that I don't know anything about books!"

"Sister, according to what you mean, it doesn't mean that you want to marry into the palace and become a concubine?"

"Why, sister is not worthy?"

"Bah, bah, bah! Sister, don't hit me on the head!"

……

this night.

There was joy and laughter in the royal city, and many people got drunk.

But Jiang Qingyu was not among them.

Qifeng Residence also did not hold a celebration wine, because Jiang Qingyu issued an order in place of the King of the North, to bury the fallen soldiers one by one in the past few days, and then hold the celebration.

After settling down a few Beidi protons himself, he rejected all the visits and went straight back to Ziyan Courtyard with a group of female relatives.

"Two sisters, you should stay in these two guest rooms from now on. The room has been unoccupied for a long time, so remember to clean it first. I'll take you to Butler Xu to get the bedding later."

Xiaoman pointed to the two rooms and said with a smile to Luqi and Duyou:

"Young Master is most jealous of someone disturbing his sleep, so..."

"Sisters, remember, you are not allowed to sneak into his room at night to do bad things!"

"Yes, I made a note of it."

Although Lu Qi and Du You's martial arts cultivation has reached the Bright Moon Realm, which is more than one level higher than Xiao Man's, they still behave a little cautiously in front of this unusual Huamanlou killer.

They knew very well that it was Huamanlou's third floor daughter, Luo Luo, who took the lead in conquering Beidi this time.

Compared to killing two Immortals at the Sunrise Realm and bringing Helian and Hude to submit to Jiang Qingyu, the help of the second daughter playing the first song and killing a few people is a bit insignificant.

Plus……

Later they met the Lord of the Qin Palace in Luoxia Town, and they still had lingering fears after a few days, so they came to Ziyan Courtyard with the intention of taking refuge and avoiding disasters. Expecting too much?

Perhaps because he noticed that the second daughter's complexion was not very good, Jiang Qingyu on the side smiled and assured:

"Do not worry."

"In Ziyanyuan, no one can take you away."

Hearing this promise, Luqi and Duyou felt a little relieved, and walked into the room to start cleaning.

Xiaoman also opened the door and walked into Jiang Qingyu's room, and waved to him:

"My lord, you wait outside for a while, and come in after I finish cleaning the room!"

"Ah, no, from now on I have to be called His Royal Highness!"

Jiang Qingyu gave a spoiled smile:

"Call it whatever you like."

Then, he took a bowl of fish food, stood by the pool, and started feeding the fish.

After a handful of fish food was spilled.

The koi that were originally scattered everywhere suddenly scrambled and flocked to them.

Jiang Qingyu glanced at it for a few minutes, but she hadn't seen it for nearly a month. Instead of losing weight, the dozens of koi had gained weight. It seemed that the group of hidden guards put a lot of thought into it.

I don't know...

Does Princess Jingli, who is far away in the capital, have no worries day and night, with a plump body?

……

Just as Jiang Qingyu was feeding the fish.

Ziyan Courtyard also welcomed its first guest today——

Jiang Shan, who is in charge of guarding the Sutra Pavilion.

"His Royal Highness, you have come here uninvited, and you have the liberty to disturb me."

Jiang Shan, who was dressed in a gray robe, stood outside the courtyard gate, looking at the newly promoted son of the royal family with a smile.

"Brother made fun of it, please come in quickly."

Jiang Qingyu stepped forward to greet him:

"Originally, I wanted to wait until tomorrow to visit senior brother, but I didn't expect senior brother to come in person tonight. It seems that I don't know how to be polite!"

Hearing the word "senior brother", Jiang Shan couldn't help blushing:

"My lord, I'm actually here to deliver a message."

With his remaining left hand, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Qingyu.

"Five days ago, Old Sword Master Yu sent someone to tell me something—"

"Teacher, see you in the capital in a month."

Jiang Qingyu frowned slightly, and glanced at the paper, only to see that it was densely filled with information about a person:

Fan Yu, a student of Jixia Academy, studied under Mr. Cheng Zhe.

Following the road of Confucianism, without cultivating the body, at the age of 32, he suddenly realized the innate, and ranked first in the list of princes of Chu State in one fell swoop.

After the epiphany of innateness, this person kept a low profile, but a month ago, someone saw him beheading a middle-stage demon master with a righteous spirit and a gentleman's sword on the bank of Dongyang Lake in Jizhou!

"When I was apprenticed to my teacher, the old sword master had said that I would go to the capital three years later and use the "Yu Clan's Sword Classic" to defeat him dignifiedly in front of everyone!

"But right now, isn't it just over two months?"
