The Rebirth of the Deposed Empress

Hua Wu Ke asked silently, what's wrong?

"It's getting late. You should have a good rest. I'm leaving now."

Hearing that Ye Buhuo was about to leave, Hua Wuke subconsciously held his hand.

After a moment's pause, he reacted, then let go as if to cover up his mistake, and then quickly pulled his hand back.

He also quietly patted the 'disobedient' hand with his other hand.

Ye Buhuo just returned to the palace, why are you reacting so strongly? It's so embarrassing!

The two hands were entangled and moving constantly, but on the surface they pretended nothing had happened.

Hua Wu Ke cleared his throat and said calmly:

"Oh, I see."

Ye Buhuo noticed all of Hua Wuke's little movements, and seeing how embarrassed she was, he stopped teasing her.

Cooperating with Hua Wu Ke and pretending nothing had happened, Ye Buhuo stopped her from going any further as she walked to the gate of the courtyard.

"It's late at night and the dew is heavy outside. Come inside quickly."

Hua Wu Ke nodded and looked at him without saying anything, with an indescribable emotion in his eyes.

When Ye Buhuo saw this look, it was clear that he was reluctant to leave.

His heart warmed, and then he looked up at Ye Yi and Qing Zhu who were following behind him. The two of them understood and turned their bodies sideways.

One of them was talking fancifully with Hua Liutian about how turbulent the border had been in the past few months, while the other one was talking to the Qingmei sisters about the unique features of the Beimo Pass that were not available in the capital.

Successfully diverted the attention of the three people.

Without any extra gazes, Ye Buhuo pulled Hua Wu Ke closer and, in the moonlight, gently pressed his lips against her forehead.

Hua Wu Ke's face was still a little red even when he entered the house.

Qingmei thought Hua Wu Ke had caught a cold and had a fever just after returning, so she was anxious and reached out to touch Hua Wu Ke's forehead.

"Miss, are you feeling unwell somewhere? Please don't scare me!"

Before Qingmei's hand could touch hers, Qinglan quickly stopped it.

"Miss is just tired. We should help her wash up."

Qingmei actually wanted to chat with Hua Wuke, but seeing that Hua Wuke had not yet recovered from Ye Buhuo's kiss, he just sat there in a daze, as if he was extremely tired.

She felt sorry for Hua Wu Ke's long journey, and then she did her best to help Hua Wu Ke wash up.

On the second day, just as Ye Buhuo had said, in the evening, the Hua family army marched into the capital city in a mighty manner.

In the past, Ye Buhuo always returned to Beijing with Hua Zhukong and others. This was the first time that Ye Buhuo and Hua Wuke went to the city gate to welcome the Hua family army.

Not long ago, the news of the great victory at Beimo Pass, in which the northern bandits were severely repelled, had already spread throughout the capital.

Although the capital city is far away from the war and has not truly experienced the feeling of being forced to flee due to the flames of war, the Night Kingdom won a great victory, and as the people of the Night Kingdom, they are proud of it.

Hua Rongyu, the commander-in-chief of the Hua family army, rode a war horse with a calm expression on his face, walking steadily in the front. Hua Wujing followed closely behind his father, dressed in fine clothes and riding a horse, looking like a successful young man.

Taking advantage of the battle at Beimo Pass, Hua Zhukong completely stopped caring about the affairs of the Hua family army and handed them all over to Hua Rongyu. So when he returned to Beijing this time, he did not show up as usual, but rode in a sedan chair in the center of the team.

Hua Wu Ke and Ye Bu Huo were sitting in an upper room of a restaurant facing the street at this time.

Seeing his father and brother leading the team into the street below, Hua Wu Ke leaned half of his body out of the window and waved at them excitedly.

Ye Buhuo sat steadily at the table, his eyes fixed on the front of the team. When he met Hua Wujing's gaze, he raised the teacup in his hand as a signal.

I saw that Hua Wu Ke had returned to the capital safely, and looking at her fair and tender face and her bright smile, she must have not suffered any hardship.

Hua Wujing rarely returned the salute, but his raised eyebrows still showed a bit of criticism.

The army crossed the street and headed towards the palace. Because the Xuantie Army had made an indispensable contribution in the battle of Beimo Pass, they also went to the palace after sending Hua Wuke back to the general's mansion.

Ye Buhuo came out of the general's mansion, took a shortcut in a carriage, and finally met up with Hua Rongyu and others when they were about to enter the palace gate.

Because of Ye Buhuo's status as the prince of the Ye Kingdom, several eunuchs were waiting at the palace gate with a sedan chair. When they saw Ye Buhuo getting off the carriage, they went to greet him with the sedan chair.

But Ye Buhuo just waved his hand as if to refuse.

The eunuch Fushou, who was standing nearby, was a little surprised when he saw this scene.

Although the engagement between Prince An and the third daughter of the General's Mansion had been arranged long ago, the Emperor had always been wary of the Black Iron Army and the Hua Family Army and was very reluctant to see the two families get too close, so in the past Prince An's Mansion and the General's Mansion would not have such blatant contact in the palace.

Now Prince An refused the sedan chair and chose to walk with General Hua.

The Emperor had been waiting for Prince An to cancel his engagement with the third daughter of the Hua family, but Prince An simply didn't bother to avoid suspicion.

Eunuch Fushou sighed inwardly, it seemed that something was going to happen in the capital again.

Although he had a lot of thoughts in his mind, Eunuch Fushou did not show it on his face.

He winked at the eunuchs to leave, bowed and made a gesture of invitation, and said with a smile:

"Your Highness Prince An, please come in, three generals. The Emperor is waiting in the Yangxin Palace."

Several of them were martial artists with extremely fast running speed, and they arrived at the Yangxin Palace in the blink of an eye.

"My dear brother,"

"My humble servant,"

"See the Emperor."

Ye Lanfeng had a perfect smile on his face and raised his hand to signal them to stand up.

"My dear ministers, you have defeated the Northern bandits and promoted the prestige of our Great Night Kingdom. You have made an invaluable contribution."

"I have a brother who is like my eighth brother, and three generals who are as brave as me. It is really my good fortune! Hahahaha."

Also in the palace at this time were Ye Chuji and his grandfather Prime Minister Zhao, as well as the Sixth Prince Ye Jinan and several key ministers.

After praising a few people, the emperor turned to look at the seated ministers and princes.

"Don't you think so?"

Hearing the emperor's words, the ministers all burst into laughter.

Everyone knew that the emperor was most wary of the Xuantie Army and the Hua Family Army. Now, hearing the emperor praising them so much, these ministers could only smile in agreement but dared not speak out.

The emperor looked around and saw that no one responded. His face was about to darken, and Ye Chuji stood up at this moment.

"Replying to Father, the fact that the Ye Kingdom can have such a powerful general is actually the reason why the Ye Kingdom is prosperous. It is because the Ye Kingdom has a true dragon emperor, so it can have such a national fortune!"

These words attributed all the credit for Ye Buhuo and the Hua family to Ye Lanfeng.

The emperor felt very relieved when he heard this, and the smile on his face became more genuine.

"My son is smart!"

Ye Lanfeng smiled and glanced at Ye Buhuo. Even if you have made great achievements in battle, so what? Isn't it me who is sitting on this dragon throne now?
