Come on, Your Highness

People in the capital cheered and rushed to the streets to welcome the triumphant heroes.

For more than half a year, the Xiongnu cavalry was finally blocked from the border again, but the border was once again stable for several years.

Xiao Hong, who was shining in golden armor, was sitting on the horse. He was majestic and handsome, and he was very dignified. There were screams from both sides, and everyone followed him. Flowers and silk handkerchiefs were thrown in front of his horse from time to time.

When the country was in crisis, he stepped forward and led an army to the north to fight against the enemy. This prince, who has only been conferred for less than a year, has established a supreme prestige among the people.

Everyone praises the current emperor's wisdom and martial arts, and his eyes know gold. With such a prince, the people are full of hope for the future of Daqi.

Cheers kept coming towards Xiao Hong.

Of course, the one with the most legends is the female general.

I saw a burgundy horse behind the crown prince's shoulder, sitting a general who was not so rough, but tall and dashing.

The red tasseled armor is decorated with white filial piety, her eyes are cold and her face is pretty, there is no doubt that it is her.

Everyone was very curious, it turned out that the mighty female general looked like this, she was a good-looking girl.

The prosperity of the capital city can be seen from the houses in the two streets. She has never seen so many people, and their faces are full of stability that the border people do not have.

The towering and majestic palace wall appeared in front of my eyes, which was the most noble place in the world.

In front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, hundreds of officials were already standing and waiting.

I only heard the long horns and long horns, and a sharp and long singing: "The emperor is here-"

Bells and drums sounded, and the emperor's chariot arrived.

All the ministers and soldiers knelt down to welcome the holy driver.

Xiao Hong walked across the Jinshui Bridge step by step, and before he reached the emperor, he held up the commander's seal in his hand, looked at the emperor and said: "One hundred thousand troops are united as a city, my son is lucky to fulfill his mission!"

Emperor Tiangan's gaze was fixed on his returning son. He still had a little immature face when he left. After nearly a year of wind and sand in northern Xinjiang, he looked a lot rougher but also more mature and stable. His once unrestrained eyes are now Like a sharp sword with a hidden front in its sheath, it is introverted, and an unshakable temperament is precipitated from the whole body.

This is a real crown prince who can take on heavy responsibilities.

Emperor Tiangan looked at Xiao Hong like this and his heart was filled with pride. He couldn't help standing up from the imperial car, took Xiao Hong's arm, and helped him up, "Okay. If you have a son like this, what more can a father ask for? My prince is my greatest pride."

He personally took back the commander's seal from Xiao Hong, turned around and handed it to Eunuch Huang.

Xiao Hong could feel that Emperor Tiangan's hand on his arm was very tight, and his excitement seemed to be able to restrain his gaffe.

A smile appeared on Xiao Hong's face, and he said with burning eyes: "Father, I remember that you ordered someone to brew good wine before you set off, and waited for the soldiers to drink together when they returned. Today, I dare to ask you to give me wine. "

"I remember, I have been waiting for the soldiers to come back!" Emperor Tiangan then raised his hand, "Come here, serve the wine!"

The farewell wine was drunk tragically, but the reception wine was naturally drunk happily.

Today, as long as they are still alive and stand in front of the emperor, what awaits them next is a meritorious deed and a celebration banquet.

He Xichao did not follow to the palace, but returned directly to the Prince's Mansion with the guards of the Prince's Mansion.

As for the civil servants, they were eager to go home, so naturally they were sent back to reunite.

Before going north, the Prince's Mansion was still being expanded. Now that the House of Internal Affairs has been completed, the mansion that already occupied a street has doubled in size. Now it occupies an area that one person can't finish walking around in a day.

The number of servants in the palace has also increased several times, and all the rules are comparable to the palace.

Although Xiao Hong still only lives in a few rooms in the front hall, and the scope of activities has not changed, but there are many people to protect and serve, after all, he is not as comfortable as the Yingwang Palace.

Of course, as a prince, Xiao Hong didn't choose to live in the palace, so he was quite free.

After He Xichao ordered everyone to arrange the affairs of returning from the north, he did not follow Eunuch Chang's suggestion to take a rest in the dormitory, and took Ah Fu back to He's residence directly.

After returning to Beijing, some places are no longer his.

Just like this Prince's Mansion, after replacing the plaque of King Ying's Mansion, even though there are still familiar rooms in front of you, after all, you can't be as carefree as before.

On the contrary, He's mansion felt more like home.

Li Yuechan was waiting for him looking through the autumn water.

"It's been hard, it looks like I've lost a lot of weight." Li Yuechan's tears fell as expected, and she held He Xichao's hand and wept continuously.

He Xichao didn't like the way his mother shed tears at every turn, but now she made him extremely kind.

The life in the northern border was really too hard, not only the physical torture, but also the mental suffering. He was not in good health, but there was an unavoidable illness over there. He Xichao lost a lot of weight, which made Li Yuechan's heart ache. .

"Mom, let's get something to eat, it's not good over there."

"Let the kitchen be ready, Chunxiang, let's serve dinner quickly." Li Yuechan wiped her eyes and hurriedly urged.

No matter what conflicts there were between mother and child, where there is a mother, there is always a warmth waiting for him.

But He Xichao still feels guilty about facing Li Yuechan. This delicate and weak woman will probably depend on him all her life.

Just remembering his plan, he can only be an unfilial son.

After the meal, he talked with Li Yuechan for a while, and patiently described the customs and customs of the northern territory.

Li Yuechan, who had never gone out in her life, was very interested in hearing this, but seeing the tiredness in He Xichao's eyes, she persuaded: "You are back, you have some time to tell your mother, go and rest first."

He Xichao followed his advice and went back to his room.

Xia He had ordered someone to prepare hot water. He soaked in the water and closed his eyes to soothe his limbs and mood.

"Ah Fu is back, it's time for you two to get married." He said suddenly.

Xia He was startled when he heard the words, then his face became red, and he said softly: "Let the young master decide."

"You've been by my side for so long, so is Ah Fu. You know the root and the bottom, and you should get married in a lively manner."

Xia He prepared the clean clothes and put them on the screen: "Thank you, young master."

He Xichao bent her lips, her love life was bumpy, and it was the same when she watched the people around her get married happily.

In the Qingzheng Hall, under the pressure of the four-cornered charcoal basin, Xiao Hong reluctantly took off his soft armor, took off his shirt, and was shirtless.

"Well, there is no one who is not injured when marching or fighting. Scars are a symbol of a man. The longer they grow, the deeper they become, the more man they are. Dad, don't you think so?"

"Nonsense!" Emperor Tiangan raised his hand and slapped him on the back, making a loud sound.

"Hiss...Father, you are really ruthless, are you jealous of your son's figure, you hit him so hard?" Xiao Hong yelled in pain.

But Emperor Tiangan gave a cold smile, and shook his hand where Xiao Hong couldn't see.

The back of this stinky boy is firm, and the feeling of hitting it is more like hitting a stone. If you want to say jealousy, Emperor Tiangan is really that bit!

However, Xiao Hong's figure is really nothing to say, with a bee waist and a slashed back, which is unique in beauty, but there are many knife scars and arrow marks on it, and the arrow scars from Jiangzhou are mixed in it, which is inconspicuous.

Emperor Tiangan saw it very dazzlingly, and couldn't help but reprimanded: "As the commander, you command the battlefield from afar, so why did you go to the battle to kill the enemy yourself? How did you promise me before you set off that you would never take any risks, be careful?" Be cautious, what is Gu Xingwu doing?"

This was completely venting his anger. Xiao Hong really looked at his father with admiration: "That's the cavalry of the Huns. I'm not in the central army. Where can I go? The commander didn't set an example, but stayed behind and watched the soldiers go. Going forward, how do you convince the crowd? Besides, any commander who values ​​his own life more than anyone else will generally be unable to win a battle. Father, do you think this is the case?"

Of course the words are true, but where would a father want to see his son covered in scars?

Emperor Tiangan can't help much in the imperial city, and this helpless anger can only burn on innocent people.

"Remember that you are the prince of Daqi, your safety is more important than anything else!"

Xiao Hong nodded again and again, and followed the words: "I know, I know, ah, it's all back, are you going to settle the score after the autumn?" Xiao Hong put on his clothes, and then pouted, "Speaking of which, there is no way for my son to kill the enemy, you promise me Did you get it done?"

"What's the matter?" Emperor Tiangan pretended not to know.

"Are you sick?"

"Who is so talkative?" Emperor Tiangan said angrily, "Huang Ji!"

Huang Gonggong, who was guarding the door, suddenly trembled in his calves, and was about to come in to plead guilty, when he heard Xiao Hong "Ai ai ai", "My son just asked casually, did you really get sick?"

The stinky boy was still playing tricks, and the emperor's eyes lit up: "Is it not common to be sick?"

"Yes, but what are you so excited about? Is it because you didn't have a good rest and a good meal?"

Emperor Tiangan was choked for a moment, and was about to deny it, when Xiao Hong laughed knowingly, then hugged the emperor unexpectedly, and said with emotion: "It's great, dad, I can go back to Beijing and see you again." It's good to see you, I can protect you now."

At that moment, Emperor Tiangan's heart suddenly became soft and in a mess.

There is only such a precious son in the world!

The fledglings have spread their wings and soared high, with unstoppable momentum.

Emperor Tiangan was especially willing to watch Xiao Hong grow into a towering tree, even covering his head, that was a kind of pride and pride.

His son is naturally the most outstanding one in the world, and he will be better than blue. He looks forward to handing over the world to Xiao Hong one day.

However, the more this is the case, the more he does not want Xiao Hong to have stains that cannot be erased, that he will be criticized by others, and ridiculed by future generations.

Everything in the northern border was over, and it was time for both Xiao Hong and He Xichao to give him the answer.

It's just that when the army came back today, he was unwilling to force him, leaving him with an unkind complaint.

"I've seen you, I'll go back to rest in these two days, and I'll celebrate you in three days." Emperor Tiangan patted Xiao Hong on the shoulder and said.

However, Xiao Hong suppressed his smile, took a step back, and knelt down: "Father, today, my son will fulfill his promise and give you an answer."

"You say it."

"My son wants to marry Princess Zhen Guo, please grant me the marriage."
