Chapter 408 Grandma Returns

The emperor ordered Qin Tiansi to choose a good day. The 28th of the twelfth lunar month was an auspicious day for the wedding of the princess and Du Long!

Since entering the twelfth month of the twelfth lunar month, the missions sent by various countries in the mainland to the capital of the Haotian Empire have also arrived one after another!

What surprised Du Long was that the Xixia Empire's friendship mission was actually led by the eldest prince Yuan Guang, and Yuan Yu also came with the delegation. After attending the Immortal Alliance Conference, this boy went back to Xixia with his elder brother. Taking advantage of Du Long's wedding, he and his eldest brother came over again.

In addition, Du Long was also deeply surprised by the Chishui Kingdom's envoy. It was actually led by Princess Ouyang Qingwen. She actually made a detour to the Holy City of Hasam in Qingyun Grassland to pick up Princess Qingling. , then they went north from Chilong Gorge to Haotian Capital City!

The exit of Chishui Kingdom at Chiyueguan is opposite Qingyun Grassland. Because of the close distance, the two princesses would go to each other's place to stay for a few days from time to time. Since they met through Du Long, the relationship between the two princesses has become better and better. , they are like best friends and have reached the point where they can talk about everything!

Then, Su Jinbao followed his father all the way from Dongyang Kingdom to Haotian Capital City!

Therefore, before the wedding banquet started, Du Long held a banquet in Du Mansion to entertain these young friends in advance. His current status was relatively sensitive, and if he entertained guests outside, he would be a little bit more partial to others.

Therefore, it is better to entertain guests at home than anywhere else!

After that, Su Jinbao and other male friends all moved into the Du Mansion and were selected as the default wedding companions. And all the female friends, those friends from Haotian Royal Academy, all moved into the Princess Palace of the Royal Palace. Ouyang Qingwen and Qing Ling The princess moved into Xia Mansion!

This is the custom of Haotian. The groomsmen and bridesmaids stay in the homes of both men and women before the wedding, mainly for the sake of excitement and auspiciousness. During the period before the wedding, the men and women are not allowed to see each other!

On the eleventh day of the twelfth lunar month, some of the soldiers of the Haotian Expeditionary Army who were invited to return to the capital finally returned in triumph!

As usual, each major legion will draw lots to organize a legion of ten thousand people. Under the leadership of the chief and deputy generals of each legion, they will rush to the capital to accept inspection and reward from His Majesty the Emperor!

The emperor personally led the civil and military officials to welcome him out of the imperial capital. Du Zhentian and his son were considered as soldiers returning in triumph. After they left the city in advance to join the army, they rushed to the south gate of Haotian Capital to accept the review of His Majesty the Emperor!

Then, hundreds of thousands of troops lined up neatly, and under the leadership of coach Du Long, followed the convoy of the emperor and officials, and slowly marched towards the palace!

Along the way, they had been surrounded by countless people in Haotian Capital City. Tens of thousands of people in the capital city cheered loudly and lined the streets to warmly welcome the soldiers who had returned in triumph!

Du Long rode a fiery red flaming one-horned lion and wore formal golden armor. Behind him, he was followed by 500 flaming tiger cavalry, 500 heavy armored water rhino cavalry, 500 wind wolf cavalry, and 500 heavy armored water rhino cavalry. Patterned horse cavalry, five hundred light armored water patterned horse cavalry!

A total of 2,500 Demonic Beast Cavalrymen became the highlight of the entire legion being reviewed, and received the warmest welcome from the people of the capital. For a time, their entire bodies were covered with colorful petals!

After passing through half of the capital's main roads, the large group of people finally arrived outside the palace gate. The ordinary soldiers, under the restraint of the generals, lined up neatly in a square formation of ten thousand people in the square outside the palace gate.

The flags of each phalanx are fluttering, clearly displaying the numbers of their respective legions!

At this time, the emperor had already boarded the command tower on the palace wall. Hundreds of civil and military officials were lined up on both sides. There were more than a dozen square formations below, plus hundreds of generals and deputy generals led by Du Long. They began to listen to the emperor's instructions on the command tower on the palace wall. .

First there was a long and eloquent speech, and just when Du Long was about to fall asleep, on the palace wall, the emperor finally got to the point and announced a series of rewards!

The first recipient of the reward was naturally Du Long, and the emperor personally named him King Wu in public! Grant Lan Yue Capital City as his fiefdom, change Lan Yue Palace into a royal palace, and also grant Du Long, the Martial King with a different surname!

Then there were the rewards for other generals, all of which were personally issued by the emperor. They were promoted to higher positions and given gold, silver, jade and brocade. I won’t list them all in detail here!

After that, the reward orders for the deputy general level were announced by a eunuch. Fortunately, they did not come one by one. Instead, the rewards were unified according to military rank, so it didn't take too much time!

At the end, it’s time to reward all the soldiers, of course it’s money!

Because Du Long was in front of him, the emperor naturally couldn't be stingier than him, and actually doubled the gold coins Du Long rewarded. In other words, he had to spend 70 million gold coins to reward the three armies!

It seems that after this battle, although Du Long looted a lot, the emperor also gained a lot! He threw away seven to ten million gold coins without even frowning!

Amidst the deafening shouts of hundreds of thousands of soldiers below, the emperor was so happy that he actually promised that from today on, these troops who came to the capital to be inspected would have a feast for three days to reward the soldiers for their hard work in the imperial expedition!

The emperor's words made Du Long miserable. In the next three days, he almost became a bartender. He ran back and forth in several military camps outside the city all day long, even if he only stayed in half of each camp. hours, he spent most of the twelve hours a day in the military camp.

All the soldiers knew that his big day was coming soon, so he basically couldn't refuse the excuse he gave during the toast!

After finally surviving these three days, while waiting for the auspicious day to arrive, a piece of news shocked the entire Du Mansion, especially Mr. Du Fengzhong. After receiving the news, he could be described as restless. Pass.

"You brat! Does grandpa look very old?!"

"You brat! Is it appropriate for grandpa to wear clothes like this?!"

"Smelly boy..."

I guess everyone has guessed that Du Long's grandmother, Gong Xiaoxue, the former Saint of the Immortal Alliance, will soon arrive in Haotian Capital. Since Lu Leer, the seventh princess of the Dongyang Kingdom, was successfully elected as the new Saint of the Immortal Alliance, after several months of handover, this The old saint finally completely shed her name as the saint of the Immortal Alliance and transformed into an honorary elder of the Immortal Alliance!

Almost everyone in the entire Du family knew that the Du family's mother, the Saint of the Immortal Alliance, was coming back. The Du family, which was already overjoyed because of Du Long's wedding, became even more happy because of this!

The eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month was the day when the Saint of the Immortal Alliance arrived in Haotian Capital. Early in the morning, Mr. Du took Du Long, Du Zhentian and his wife, and hundreds of Du family generals out of the south gate to greet her at the Ten Mile Pavilion. middle.

"Oh!" Du Long stretched out and complained sleepily: "Grandpa! I have sent the shadow guards to keep a close eye on my grandmother's whereabouts. It will take her noon to get here. You have given her so early. Pull me here, isn’t that a waste of energy just waiting?!”

In the ten-mile long pavilion that was guarded by the Du family generals, only four members of Du Fengzhong's family were present. Mr. Du was walking back and forth a little restlessly. After hearing Du Long's words, he shouted angrily on the spot: "You stinky boy! You Grandma is a master of the spiritual level. She came and went from a high place, so how can she have an accurate time?! What if she misses me! If she rushes on her way in a hurry, if we don’t come out to greet her in advance, then Don’t you want to disappoint her?!”

"Grandpa is mighty!" Du Long was shocked by the old man's logic on the spot. He rolled his eyes and shook his thumb.

"Haha! Brat! It's normal for your grandpa to be anxious after not seeing grandma for so many years! If you were separated from Huofeng or Qinglian for decades, I'm afraid you would be even worse than him!" Seeing that the old man was about to get angry again , Zhou Ruoxue quickly grabbed Du Long's arm and scolded him softly.

"Ah... it hurts... it hurts!" Du Long deliberately shouted loudly. Although it was an act, Mr. Du's complexion improved a lot and he stopped paying attention to him. He then began to walk back and forth in the pavilion, looking into the distance from time to time. Southern horizon.

"Hey, mother! Why do I feel that my father is also very nervous?!" Du Long turned around and saw Du Zhentian beside him who was so nervous that his hands were trembling slightly, and he couldn't help but chuckle.

"Don't laugh!" Zhou Ruoxue gave him a look and said angrily: "You are so heartless. I'm afraid you won't miss your mother even if you are separated from her for decades, right?!"

Du Long, who knew that he had made a mistake, could only scratch his head and laugh dryly and replied: "Hey, how can that be possible?! The child misses his mother so much after only being separated from his mother for a few months. After decades, he must be even worse than his father!"

"Talk! You have the sweetest mouth. No wonder you attract the love of so many girls!" Zhou Ruoxue scolded with a sweet smile. Regardless of whether Du Long's words were true or false, she was relieved to hear it!

Time passed slowly, and just as Du Long was about to fall asleep, two figures flew up from the southern sky at high speed. Du Fengzhong had sharp eyes and could see the identity of the person at a glance. At this critical moment, his legs felt like they were filled with blood. It was like a lead, and I couldn't move any further!

"Stinky... brat! You... grandma is here! Quick, help grandpa, my leg... seems to be cramped!" Du Fengzhong stammered something that made Du Long almost faint.

Finally, with Du Long's support, the old man walked tremblingly outside the pavilion. At this moment, the two figures also rushed closer, and they were the former saint Gong Xiaoxue and the elder Gong Hu of the Immortal Alliance!

Gong Xiaoxue had been keeping her eyes locked on Du Fengzhong from a long distance away. The two people's gazes seemed to be attracted by magnetic force, tightly intertwined and unwilling to move away!

"Alas! It has been decades, Fengzhong! Your temples have turned white! After so many years, you have not remarried, you have become both father and mother, and you have just brought up our son! And you have such an outstanding son. Grandson! Xiaoxue is really unworthy of all three generations of you!" After a long silence, Gong Xiaoxue broke the silence with a leisurely sigh.

"Xiao Xue! After many years, you are still as beautiful and holy as you were back then. What happened back then was not your fault or mine! You have not sorry for anyone. If you hadn't defended us again and again, we would have been separated from each other long ago!" Du Fengzhong shook his head. There were tears in the tiger's eyes, and there was a tremor in his voice.

"Hey! Don't be too emotional!" Du Long obviously couldn't stand the sad atmosphere, so he broke it on the spot and said: "Du Long has met my grandmother and my uncle! These two are father and mother. ! Also my grandmother’s son and daughter-in-law!”

After his interruption, Gong Xiaoxue felt that she had lost her composure, so she raised her head and fixed her gaze on Du Zhentian, who was trembling slightly with excitement and whose eyes were red: "Zhentian! My child!"

"Mother... dear!" Du Zhentian struggled to shout these two words from his mouth. For countless years, he had been thinking about these two words in his heart, but it was so difficult to shout them out today!
