Quick Wear: Oops, the mission target is crying again

Chapter 962: The Wasteful Prince vs. the First Female Official 1

Lingyao couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth as she turned her back to Xuan Yanjing.

Half a month later, Xuan Yanjing wiped out the rebels and returned triumphantly with his soldiers and generals.

The sound of drums at the city gate made people's eardrums tremble, and the bluestone road was pounding with the sound of horses' hooves.

Xuan Yanjing pulled the reins, his silver armor still stained with the dust of travel, and his hair at the temples was slightly messed up by the wind, but it couldn't hide his astonishingly bright eyes.

The soldiers behind him looked tired, but each of them stood straight.

On the city gate, the emperor, the supreme ruler, came to greet them personally. They did not receive such treatment when they sent troops there.

In addition to the emperor, Helian Ke was also there. He was not on the platform, but was waiting outside the city gate to greet them.

First, with red eyes, she talked to her father whom she had not seen for a long time, and then turned around and found Xuan Yanjing.

"My cousin, congratulations on your return from victory. I heard from my father that you were extremely brave on the battlefield this time, and you are worthy of being a young general."

Xuan Yanjing's attitude towards his cousin was a little gentler than before. After all, he had grown a lot and it was not so difficult for him to still remember the fact that he had had feelings for Lingyao before.

Xuan Yanjing smiled and nodded: "Thank you, this time it is also thanks to my uncle's help, he taught me a lot."

Helian Ke nodded, turned to look at Lingyao beside him, and was about to say something.

Xuan Yanjing, who was just generous, suddenly had a change in the elasticity of his stomach. His belly was no longer big, but small.

He quickly changed Helian Ke's words and led his men towards the city gate. Helian Ke didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he really just wanted to say hello to Lord Wen.

Hearing that Lord Wen broke into Xiacheng alone to rescue his cousin, he wouldn't be so unable to see the situation clearly as to force his way between the two of them.

When I first met my cousin, I felt that he had changed a lot, as if we were suddenly not the same age, but now it seems that he hasn't changed at all.

Just like before, she is still so possessive of Lord Wen, like a child.

Xuan Yanjing brought Lingyao into the city and met the emperor.

The first thing he mentioned was his marriage.

The emperor also wanted to laugh for some reason. He came in person to welcome them back to the capital, but Xuan Yanjing didn't even think about how to use these merits to exchange for some rewards from him.

And he brought up the marriage right away... Yeah, this can be considered a reward.

The emperor was not prepared to go back on his word, not because he really felt that he had to keep his promise to Xuan Yanjing, but because of the power and status that Lingyao carried.

She was a former female official, yet she was able to pass all the way from the palace to the northwest quietly. It was not until she rescued everyone that she discovered it.

This shows that the power in her hands has penetrated into all aspects.

This is no longer a simple matter for the Chunye Pavilion Master.

The best way to deal with this kind of force that is difficult to control and difficult to resist is to incorporate the imperial power.

Isn’t marriage the best way?

However, he still felt a little disgusted by Xuan Yanjing's impatient and worthless appearance.

"Alright, I won't break my promise to you. You haven't seen me for a long time, don't you have anything you want to say to me?"

Xuan Yanjing thought to himself, it was common for me not to see you twice a year, what can I say to you?

However, Xuan Yanjing thought about it and still found two sentences.

"Father, the generals and soldiers who marched with me this time are all very brave and skilled in battle. I hope you will not mistreat them."

Xuan Yanjing wanted to talk to the emperor about the collusion between Concubine Wen and the Yue Clan, but thinking that there were too many people at this occasion, it was not appropriate to talk about such matters within the royal family, so he did not bring it up for the time being.

Xuan Yanjing and the emperor had a back-and-forth conversation, and anyone could see that the emperor was satisfied with Xuan Yanjing.

Xuan Qingxu, who came back with the same group, was completely reduced to a foil, or even worse than a foil. After all, when the emperor had free time talking with Xuan Yanjing, he would also say a few words to Helian Chang and Lingyao.

But when facing Xuan Qingxu, he didn't even ask.

The emperor was indeed very disappointed with Xuan Qingxu.

He spent much more time than Xuan Yanjing to carefully cultivate him since he was a child, and this was the result.

It was obvious that such a useless talent was no longer suitable for him to waste his time and energy on.

The emperor's attitude was the same as before towards the useless Xuan Yanjing.
