The reinforcements that came with Qian Feng were all from the Northern Expedition Army under Zhou Ruyuan. Although they had never seen Wei Dongzhu, they had heard of the deeds of the Wei family's army and they all admired the character of the Wei family and the military style of the Wei family's army.

At the same time, he had a different kind of emotion in his heart. The Wei army had previously guarded the northwest like an iron road, but after their Northern Expedition Army arrived, they were defeated one after another, which was a bit embarrassing.

Everyone in the marriage team had expressions of thought and shock.

Wei’s army, what a pity!

On the same day, several carrier pigeons and hawks flew towards the capital.

After Wei Dongzhu showed up, everyone was surprised by his attitude towards Shen Lanxi.

He actually called Shen Lanxi General, and was very respectful. What does this mean?

Of course, there were also a few people who thought in other ways, and contempt and disdain gradually appeared in their eyes.

……

After recognizing Wei Dongzhu, Baru immediately ordered his men to go to the Wala tribe to find the documents given by Wei's army.

Of course, he and Wei Dongzhu had also met before.

Naturally, I couldn't help but go up and chat with him.

"Major General, I'm Baru, do you remember me?" Baru looked at Wei Dongzhu's overly pale face in confusion. Although Wei Dongzhu's face was not as dark as his before, it was not as pale as it is now.

Wei Dongzhu had already noticed Baru looking at his face, and he knew what he was thinking. Everyone who saw him would think the same.

"My face was burned, and after seeing a doctor, I have been wearing a mask ever since, and I haven't been exposed to the sun!"

Baru let out a long "oh" and couldn't help but express the doubts in his heart.

"Major General, I want to ask, are you here to make peace with the Turks this time?"

Wei Dongzhu smiled faintly and said, "I can't tell you now. You have to listen to the general's words. You are guards now. When you arrive in Huangtu City, you will know it naturally."

Baru was so upset that he could not wait to hear what he said. The people of the Wala tribe were always forthright and said whatever they wanted to say. Unlike the people of the Great Zhou, they only said half of what they wanted to say, trying to suffocate people to death.

After being silent for a long time, Zhou Yunyue began to show great courtesy to Shen Yuanjing.

"Take this ginseng soup to Shen Yuanjing and say that it was cooked by the princess herself."

"Yes!"

Zhou Yunyue was inconvenient in the carriage, otherwise she would have sent it to Shen Yuanjing in person.

I really didn't expect that Shen Lanxi actually has some abilities. The reason why these people under her listen to her may be related to Wei Dongzhu.

She was so damn lucky. In front of her was Zhou Ruyuan, and behind was Wei Dongzhu. Wasn't she just relying on her foxy face to seduce men? She had seen through such people a long time ago.

But it’s better for her this way. No matter how high she climbs, she will belong to Shen Yuanjing in the future.

She must finalize her marriage with Shen Yuanjing as soon as possible. As for Shen Yuanjing's stupid brain, she will just teach him slowly in the future.

With the escort of the Northern Expedition Army, they soon arrived at Huangtu City.

Shen Lanxi looked at the devastated city and the soldiers standing on the city walls as firm as steel, feeling deep in admiration.

"Soldiers, thank you for your hard work!" She dismounted and shouted to the soldiers guarding the city!

The Northern Expedition Army looked surprised, and the soldiers on the city gate moved their heads left and right, not knowing how to respond.

They had never heard any general say this before, and they couldn't help but feel touched.

"General, you have worked hard on the journey!" Sun Zhong, the general of the Northern Expedition Army, opened the city gate to welcome him.

Shen Lanxi: "It's not hard work. You are here to guard the territory of our Great Zhou and set up a line of defense between our Great Zhou and foreign enemies. You are the ones who have really worked hard and made great contributions."

Sun Zhong glanced at Shen Lanxi curiously, and then didn't dare to look at her anymore.

He had heard of the name of the anti-rebellion army long ago, and heard that it was led by a woman, and was once the wife of their general Zhou Ruyuan. Although he was prepared, he still looked down on Shen Lanxi when he saw her in person.

I thought it was a Rakshasa who looked as majestic as a small iron tower on a hill, but I didn't expect it to be a woman with a stunning appearance.

Can her two thin arms lift a sword or carry a long wooden warehouse?

By sending such a person as an envoy for marriage, Your Majesty, do you want to abandon the people of the Northwest?

Sun Zhong's heart sank again and again!

After Shen Lanxi entered the city, she was directly welcomed into the mansion where Zhou Ruyuan used to live.

"General Shen, this is the best house in Huangtu City. It was..." Sun Zhong said this with some hesitation.

The house was indeed the best in Huangtu City as he said. But considering the relationship between Shen Lanxi and Zhou Ruyuan, I wonder if Shen Lanxi would be dissatisfied if she knew that Zhou Ruyuan had lived here before.

"Did Zhou Ruyuan live there?" Shen Lanxi asked bluntly.

Seeing that she didn't look embarrassed at all, Sun Zhong thought that she had a straightforward personality.

"Just live here. As long as there's a place to stay, it's fine. I'm not here for pleasure!"

Sun Zhong nodded repeatedly.

After Shen Lanxi confirmed it, Wei Dongzhu ordered people to check the house.

Let’s put aside whether it is good or not for now, the most important thing is to check whether it is safe.

"Everyone serving here, please go down. I have servants around me, and they will be here later!" Shen Lanxi stopped talking after that.

They all knew very well that the troops of the Northern Expedition Army and the Rebellion Suppression Army would definitely be exchanged later.

Before Prince Zhennan left, relevant arrangements had been made and Sun Zhong had been waiting for news.

"Yes!" The people in the house were all citizens of Huangtu City. They were sent away after being given money!

There is another mansion not far from this house, and Sun Zhong plans to arrange for the princess to live there.

That house is about the same size as this one, but considering that the princess will be married off in the future, the garden in the backyard has not been tended to. To be honest, Shen Lanxi's place is better.

Sun Zhong thought the princess would make a fuss, but he didn't expect Zhou Yunyue to just ask about the location of the house and then go and have someone clean up the house.

When Zhou Yunyue left just now, she stood in front of Shen Yuanjing for a long time. Sun Zhong keenly noticed that the atmosphere between the two was a little strange.

"General Sun, have there been any unusual movements by the Turkic and other three tribes recently?" Shen Lanxi asked about the battle situation right after entering the mansion and before even taking a sip of tea.

Sun Zhong originally wanted to wait until the welcoming banquet was over and everyone had rested before slowly informing them.

I didn't expect Shen Lanxi to be such an impatient person.

"The three tribes had made many attempts before. They probably realized that our commander was not in the camp, so they raided Shahai City more than a month ago. We had no choice but to retreat here!"

Shen Lanxi: "There's no need to prepare a welcoming banquet. I want a detailed table of the battles over the past six months, as well as information on the deployment of troops of the three Turkic tribes."

Sun Zhong was stunned.

"General Sun, is it difficult to prepare these things?" Shen Lanxi looked over calmly.

Sun Zhong subconsciously lowered his posture and said respectfully: "No problem, I will prepare it right away!"

It was not until he walked out of the house that he came to his senses. Was Shen Lanxi's aura too strong at that moment?
