MTL - Drunk House-Chapter 522 Back to Beijing (Second watch)
Chapter 522 Returning to Beijing (Second Update)
Although the emperor said that the crown prince supervised the country and had full power to deal with it, Yan Huisheng did not go over him and completely treated him as a display. Instead, he consulted the emperor for the decision and obtained the emperor's consent before conveying the will.
Thus, after Su Rong received the reply from Yan Huisheng, he left 300,000 soldiers and horses in the border town, garrisoned by Jiang Zhu and Ning Ze, and the three brothers of the Zhou family took the original 300,000 soldiers and horses from the Duke Huguo Mansion back to Beijing.
Su Rong did not go back to the capital with the soldiers and horses of the three brothers of the Zhou family, but took a step ahead and went to the capital with Feng Ling.
Feng Ling said on the road: "Hey, sister, what are we doing in the wind and snow? If we knew that Wei didn't dare to send troops, we should go to Beijing with him when we meet the old Hu Guogong."
Su Rong reminded her, "Let's go to Jibei City."
"Oh, yes, our troubles were not in vain, you even accepted Senior Sister Shen." Feng Ling almost forgot about Shen Yi.
Shen Yi naturally couldn't go to Beijing with them, she stayed in the army of 300,000 soldiers and horses at the border.
The two rode fast horses, faster than the three brothers of the Zhou family who marched with 300,000 soldiers and horses. Half a month later, they returned to the capital.
When they returned to the capital, they didn't mention going to report back. Therefore, neither the East Palace, the Duke Huguo's Mansion, nor the Su family's eldest lady got the news of her return to Beijing today.
The day they came back, after entering the city gate, they heard rumors in the capital that Zhou Gu broke into the North Hebei barracks twice to kill the chief general, saying that Young Master Zhou of the Duke Huguo's mansion was extremely powerful with two swords in one hand.
Rumors spread quickly, but within a month, Zhou Gu's deeds in Nanping had spread throughout the streets and alleys of the capital.
Feng Ling chuckled, "Sister, brother-in-law is famous all over the world."
Nanping is far away from the capital road, and the rumors have spread throughout the capital, which means that the entire Daliang has almost spread.
Su Rong smiled and nodded.
The two stopped and listened for a while, then rode straight to the Xie Mansion in Dongsi Hutong.
Madam Su's family can't sleep well these days, and they don't eat well. After the news of Nanping being besieged by the Northern Hebei Army came back to the capital, she worried about Su Rong every day, but she didn't worry about her son Su Xingze.
The eldest lady was busy making arrangements for the marriages of the three sisters of the Su family, while begging the Bodhisattva to bless Su Rong every day.
Su Rong still wrote a letter back to Beijing when he arrived in Nanping, saying that everything was fine, but there was no letter back.
On this day, the eldest lady was sitting in the room and sighing. The three young ladies were waiting to be married, and they were locked in their respective rooms to embroider wedding dresses. The other three young ladies accompanied the eldest lady to relieve boredom.
Miss Si persuaded the eldest lady, "Mother, don't worry that the old Huguogong has brought his troops back to the mansion. I heard that Zhang Ping's rebellion has been resolved. No news about Seventh Sister is the best news."
"No news is not necessarily good news. The killers in Southern Chu, if they don't kill her for a day, they probably won't stop for a day. When they were in the capital, they dared to be so rampant. When they go out of the capital, they might be able to kill her." The eldest lady sighed, "What a fate. If it's just my daughter, it would be great if it wasn't the princess of Nanchu."
Miss Wu immediately said: "Seventh Sister fights well, so I'm not afraid of them."
Miss Six immediately agreed, "Yes, yes, it's not certain who will win. Mother, don't worry too much. If Seventh Sister sees you like this, she will feel distressed."
The eldest lady was annoyed, "She is a little heartless, she doesn't know how to feel sorry for me and worry about her."
As soon as she finished speaking, someone from outside rushed to report, and the voice was very pleasantly surprised, "Madam, good news, Miss Seven is back!"
As he shouted, his voice penetrated straight into the room.
The eldest lady stood up abruptly, overjoyed, "You're back? Are you really back?" She walked out quickly without even putting on her thick clothes.
The Fourth Miss, Fifth Miss, and Sixth Miss were also overjoyed, and Qi Qi followed the eldest lady to greet them in a hurry.
Su Rong got off her horse and walked slowly towards the mansion. After walking a few steps, she saw a very thinly dressed eldest lady and three older sisters rushing out to greet her. She was in a hurry when she saw it. She was startled, and quickly walked a few steps, "Mother, Fourth Sister, Fifth Sister, Sixth Sister, what are you all in a hurry for? Are you in a hurry to see me?"
The eldest lady came up to her and saw that she looked good, she was still the same as before, and slapped her on the shoulder, "Aren't you in a hurry to see you? You bastard, you only sent someone to send a letter back. Don't you know that the family is worried about you? Who knows whether you are dead or alive."
Su Rong also remembered that she had been busy for so many days, and indeed only sent a letter back home, and suddenly felt a little weak. Seeing that the lady was wearing thin clothes, she seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and her dark circles were heavy. She suspected that she was really worried that she would not be able to sleep. "Didn't I come back safely? What are you in a hurry for? I don't know how to wear more clothes before coming out." After speaking, he scolded a few sisters, "You too, I can't run away."
After she finished speaking, she urged everyone, "Hurry up, go back to the room first."
The eldest lady originally wanted to reprimand her a few words, but was choked back by her actions and urging, and said angrily: "I am in good health, how can I catch a cold in such a short time?"
But having said that, after all Su Rong took her arm, put the cloak on her forcefully, and walked quickly into the mansion with her, he didn't say anything.
The three ladies also felt cold at this time, they did not have the treatment of the eldest lady, they wore capes, hugged their shoulders, and hurried back to the house together.
The four of them returned to the main room, and the other three young ladies also got the news and hurried to find them.
When a family of children and family members gathered together, the room was filled immediately, and everyone's eyes were on Su Rong, so they had the time to look her up and down carefully.
The eldest lady frowned, "Why did you lose so much weight?"
The eldest lady answered, "It's dark too."
Second Miss doubted, "Is Seventh Sister tired and thin?"
Miss San has the most poisonous eyes, "I see that Seventh Sister looks a little pale and her breath is weaker than before, maybe she was injured?"
Miss Four also felt that what Miss San said was a bit right, "Is that so? Did you get hurt?"
Fifth Miss felt distressed, "Seventh Sister looks at it now, it looks more like a gust of wind is about to blow it down."
Miss Six suggested, "Mother, send someone to find a doctor to diagnose Seventh Sister's pulse, so she won't hide it from us."
Su Rong: "..."
It's been a long time since I saw the scene where you talk to me, I miss it.
Babies, monthly pass, what?
