Jiaochu

Chapter 396 Recuperation

At the celebration banquet, King Pingnan was so drunk that he wanted to fight with others. The first opponent he chose was Yan Jiang, who shook his head and waved his hands, looking like he was too drunk.

Then Ye Xingye took the initiative to ask for help, as if he wanted to make a good impression.

However, the arm wrestling ended as soon as it started, and he didn't last even a second. Ye Xingye knew that King Pingnan was very strong, but he didn't expect it to be so strong, but he would not give in easily, and would fight for the second round, and then repeat it. After knowing the outcome of the first round, he said that he would win the third round after five rounds. King Pingnan waved his hand and said forget it and let him practice for another three to five years.

Ye Xingye insisted on giving him another round, and looked like he refused to admit defeat. King Pingnan admired this manly spirit and agreed to give him another round. Ye Xingye's eyes changed this time, he was extra serious. He persisted for one second, two seconds, and three seconds under the iron fist of King Pingnan without losing. King Pingnan took back his hand, and Ye Xingye thought that the other party had given up. , King Pingnan said that if he pulled it further, his wrist would break. Only then did Ye Xingye feel the pain in his wrist. He didn't even notice that the veins on his forehead had popped out, making him look a little ferocious.

King Pingnan patted Ye Xingye on the shoulder, as if in recognition.

Ye Xing was so happy that she couldn't wait to write a letter immediately to share the good news with another person.

Ye Lanchen heard that King Zhenbei was injured, so he gave him ointment so that King Zhenbei could stay in the capital for a longer period of time to recover from his injuries.

The King of Zhenbei replied: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. This injury to me is nothing. There are many affairs in the north, and I don't dare to slack off."

King Pingnan said: "Letting you recuperate does not mean that you are here to drink from the northwest wind. I will serve you delicious food and drink, and the imperial doctor will treat you every day. What are you unhappy about? Why, do you think the emperor wants to If you, the old loach, are put under house arrest here, I think you can judge the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain."

King Zhenbei said, "I think King Pingnan, you are very angry. You should stay and let the imperial doctor take a good look at you. If you are sick, you should treat it as soon as possible. Don't be so sick that your brain will be confused and you will say everything you should and should not say." I can’t tell the difference.”

King Pingnan said, "I'm very kind. You don't need to be here to cry like a cat or a mouse. If you are asked to stay, you can stay. There is so much nonsense. If you don't have any trouble in your heart, what are you afraid of if you stay? If you really have any trouble, Do the Xuanyi Army still dare to rebel?"

The King of Zhenbei's eyes turned cold, and his expression became more gloomy and solemn. "General Fang led the Red Armor Army to the capital before. Those who didn't know it thought they were here to ask the emperor for punishment." He said another greeting, "My dear nephew, how are you? Didn’t you find any root cause of the disease?”

King Pingnan also turned cold, "I haven't settled the accounts with you yet. Last time, it was you, the old loach, who was behind the scenes and made people spread rumors everywhere, saying that my son was gone and your son was sitting in a wheelchair every day. I said Have you had enough gossip?!"

Yanjiang smoothed things over and said, "You should be happy that you won the battle. Let's not talk about the past. Come, come, have a drink."

"Thanks to the two princes joining forces this time, the two princes are brave and resourceful. With the two princes here, the emperor can sit back and relax. Finally, I will propose a toast to the two princes." Qin Min had been silent before and watched the show quietly. , seeing Yan Jiang come out to smooth things over, he also came to smooth things over, as if he wanted to compete with Yan Jiang.

Qin Min did it first as a sign of respect.

After the banquet was over, Ye Lanchen left Zhenbei King to talk to him alone for a while, telling him not to worry about the northern border and to stay in the capital to recover from his injuries.

Ye Ling never returned to Yuyuan Palace. He stood in the night and glanced in the direction of Weiyang Palace from a distance. …

The next day, King Pingnan came to the royal study to bid farewell to Ye Lanchen. He wanted to go back as soon as possible for fear that his family would be worried, but mainly because he wanted to go back as soon as possible to report to Princess Pingnan that she was safe. King Pingnan mentioned one more thing, and Ye Lanchen said he would After careful consideration, he asked Yan Jiang and Yan Fei, the uncles and nephews, to escort King Pingnan away.

The Red Armor Army was stationed in the military camp on the outskirts of the city. The 20,000 people they brought to the northern border lost more than a thousand in the battle with Xiyan. King Pingnan set out to return to the southern border with the remaining 10,000 people and the remains of the fallen soldiers.

The uncle and nephew watched the soldiers and coffins go away with solemn expressions.

After no one was seen, Yanjiang asked Yanfei to go back first, as he still had things to do. As soon as Yanfei entered the city gate, he was stopped by a voice. He reined in his horse and stopped in place. He saw a maidservant running over in a hurry and pointed him in the direction of her young lady.

Yan Fei led the horse and walked over. Hu Qian'er looked anxious and opened her mouth to ask for news about her eldest brother. Yan Fei took out a letter from his arms and handed it to her. He originally planned to send it after returning to the palace.

Hu Qian'er looked excited when she saw the writing on the envelope. It was Hu Yuhan's handwriting.

After Yan Fei delivered the letter and was about to leave, Hu Qian'er quickly asked: "Brother, is he okay? Did you say when he will be back?" Yan Fei paused for a moment, as if he didn't feel comfortable answering the question, and then said, "He is very nice. OK, don’t worry.”

Hu Qian'er thanked Yan Fei and wanted to open the letter. She thought she should take it back to her father and mother first, so she left first.

Yanfei mounted his horse and prepared to return to the palace to resume his duties, but was stopped again on the way.

Su Yu ran over in a hurry. Fortunately, Yan Fei pulled the reins in time to avoid a collision between man and horse. Su Yu was startled, and was frightened by Yan Fei's stern tone. The corner of her mouth curled up and she squatted directly. The ground cried.

Then it attracted countless passers-by to watch the fun.

Yan Fei was also a little at a loss. He really had no experience in how to deal with this situation.

The more Su Yu cried, the more sad she became. The maid could not persuade her, so she went to persuade Yan Fei to come over and comfort Su Yu, so as not to make people laugh on the street. When Yan Fei was at his wits' end, he saw a man stretching his neck in the crowd and gloating at the commotion. He immediately dismounted and strode over to grab the man and asked him to send him back. He immediately got on his horse and rode towards the palace. .

Zhao Ce was just watching the excitement, but he was inexplicably caught and used as a prostitute. He was so depressed that he scolded Yan Fei countless times for being despicable, sinister, cunning, etc. But looking at Su Yu who was crying in tears, he couldn't do it either. Pretend not to see it and let it go. He persuaded her to stop crying and said he would send her back. Su Yu took out her anger on Zhao Ce, saying that he did it on purpose. Zhao Ce was confused and said that it was none of his business.

Su Yu also said that Ye Lingxi ordered him to come, and vented his anger on Ye Lingxi and said bad things about her. Zhao Ce couldn't bear it, saying that Su Yu was not as good-looking as Ye Lingxi and had a bad temper, so she would definitely not be able to marry in the future. Su Yu was so angry that she stepped on him hard, glared at him hard, and said harshly that she would not marry him even if all the men in the world were dead. Zhao Ce limped after her. Behind him, he said that he would not marry such an ugly creature like her, and then he yelled out again, and was slapped hard by Su Yu.
