Chapter 170 Jiang Yuwen Returns Victoriously
After finally sending His Royal Highness the Crown Prince away, Jiang Yutong breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone in the Softening Shop happily congratulated Jiang Yutong, "From now on, we are also people with imperial decrees. Let's see who dares to bully us."
Seeing everyone happy, Jiang Yutong said to Shi Donglian, "Give everyone a red envelope."
Now everyone is happier.
Seeing that it was getting late, Jiang Yutong said to everyone, "Let's close the shop early today and go back to rest."
Shi Donglian took the lead and bowed to Jiang Yutong, "Thank you very much, Mr. Xiangjun."
Jiang Yutong glanced at Shi Donglian with a reproachful look, and finally burst out laughing.
Jiang Yutong got on the carriage and started to think. It seemed that he had to go to the capital.
Regarding the grenade, Jiang Yutong had written a detailed recipe for its production, transportation, and storage. She always felt that the emperor summoned her to Beijing not just for the grenade.
No matter what the emperor's intentions are, Jiang Yutong cannot disobey the emperor's orders, so it seems that she has to go to the capital.
At this moment, Jiang Yutong really wanted to meet Xiao Yifeng and hear his advice.
The carriage swayed back to the Jiang Mansion, but unexpectedly, Xiao Yifeng was already there.
Jiang Yutong was a little surprised. She no longer had the strangeness she had just shown in front of the Crown Prince. She smiled at Xiao Yifeng and said, "How come you came back earlier than me?"
Xiao Yifeng bowed solemnly to Jiang Yutong and said, "Greetings, my dear."
Jiang Yutong cleared his throat and said, "No need to be polite."
After saying that, the two of them looked at each other and burst out laughing.
Jiang Yutong asked, "Did you invite this Xiangjun for me?"
"This is what you deserve."
Jiang Yutong knew that this must have been fought for by Xiao Yifeng, and her heart was filled with gratitude towards him.
With this county lady, no one would dare to bully her casually in the future, after all, she had the imperial edict to protect her.
"Tell me, is it really because of the grenade incident that the Emperor asked me to come to the capital?"
Xiao Yifeng knew that Jiang Yutong would overthink things, so he comforted her, "Don't worry, I will go to Beijing with you when the time comes. I will definitely protect you with me."
"Then I'll have to trouble Pluto."
Xiao Yifeng came here because he was afraid that Jiang Yutong would think too much. He still had a lot of things to do. He was still attacking the southern barbarians in the front, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also had a lot of things to do.
"So when will we enter Beijing?"
Jiang Yutong should also make preparations in advance.
Xiao Yifeng thought for a moment and said, "When the army that attacked the Nanman returns victorious, it will be almost time for us to set off."
Thinking of Jiang Yuwen who was still fighting in the distant land, Jiang Yutong's heart ached again, "Is my brother okay?"
Xiao Yifeng smiled and said, "Everything is fine. I believe we will return victorious soon."
This time, thanks to the grenades provided by Jiang Yutong, the attack on the Southern Barbarians went smoothly. Originally, the terrain of the Southern Barbarians was easy to defend but difficult to attack, which was also the reason why Da Qi had been unable to attack them.
Seeing that Jiang Yutong was calm, Xiao Yifeng stood up and left. "Rest assured, you can prepare the things you need to take to the capital in advance, but don't be too anxious."
Jiang Yutong nodded. "Just go and do your thing. I know what's going on."
In a few days, good news came from the army attacking the Nanman in the front. The Nanman, who had always been a major threat to the Da Qi, surrendered quickly this time, and the prince of Nanman would also enter the capital with the large army.
Jiang Yutong finally received the news of Jiang Yuwen's triumphant return. Everyone in the Jiang family was overjoyed and came to the city gate to welcome the triumphant army.
Jiang Yutong arrived at the city gate early. She hadn't seen Jiang Yuwen for a long time and was still very worried. Although he always said everything was fine in his letters, on the battlefield, swords and knives were merciless, so how could she not be worried?
Dongmei stood in a good position with Jiang Yutong, "The young master is finally back, and now the young lady is relieved."
Jiang Yutong smiled and said, "Yes, I finally got him back."
Soon, warm applause rang out at the city gate. Jiang Yuwen was seen riding a tall horse in front, and next to him was the mount of the Southern Barbarian Prince. The city was huge and crowded with people.
Jiang Yuwen arrived at the city gate, dismounted from his horse, and knelt before the Crown Prince, who was at the head of the group. "General Jiang Yuwen, along with the troops of the Netherworld State, pays homage to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
His Royal Highness was delighted. "No need for formalities. Thank you for your hard work. Everyone will receive a prize."
There was a loud cheer from the army.
Jiang Yuwen led the Nanman Crown Prince to the Crown Prince. The Nanman Crown Prince spoke in the stiff Da Qi dialect, "The guilty minister Mi Bazi pays homage to His Highness the Crown Prince."
When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince saw the Southern Barbarian Crown Prince kneeling before him, he felt indescribably satisfied. He did not immediately ask him to stand up, "Mi Bazi, okay, stand up."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said loudly, "Commanders, thank you for your hard work today. We will hold a celebration banquet for you all tonight."
Everyone cheered, and the people of Yinbai County were particularly happy. For so many years, they had been harassed by the southern barbarians. Even in this siege, many people were killed and injured. This time, they could make the southern barbarians surrender, and they would bow to the Great Qi and never dare to invade again. The people were happy from the bottom of their hearts.
Facing the army of Mingzhou, someone set off firecrackers, beat gongs and drums, and performed a festive lion dance.
Xiao Yifeng raised his hand to the generals and said, "Ride your horses and enjoy the welcome from the people."
Jiang Yuwen took the lead on horseback and headed towards the city gate, followed by the other officers and soldiers.
Dongmei smiled and jumped on the spot, "Yes, sir, yes, sir."
After saying that, he waved his handkerchief towards Jiang Yuwen.
Jiang Yutong also felt the warm atmosphere and waved her handkerchief at Jiang Yuwen, "Brother."
There were many people, but Jiang Yuwen was the first to see his sister. He jumped off his horse and walked towards Jiang Yutong. He gave her his short knife and said to her with a smile, "Wait for me to come back in the evening."
Everyone made envious sounds towards Jiang Yutong.
Jiang Yutong was particularly happy and proudly said to everyone, "This is my brother."
Several women standing next to Jiang Yutong asked her, "Is your brother engaged?"
Jiang Yutong smiled and shook her head, "We haven't been engaged yet."
"I have a daughter..."
"My niece..."
Jiang Yutong laughed a little and immediately rejected them one by one, "It's all up to you, brother."
The streets were bustling with activity, completely washing away the gloom of the past few days.
Jiang Yuwen came back very late, and it was obvious that he had drunk a lot.
Jiang Yutong had been waiting, and the first thing she did when she saw him was to check if he was injured.
Jiang Yuwen smiled and helped Jiang Yutong, who was looking around, sit down in his seat. "Don't worry, I'm not hurt."
Jiang Yutong finally felt relieved. "Brother is so brave. I wonder how many girls have fallen in love with him today."
Jiang Yuwen scratched his head, smiled innocently, and his dark face turned slightly red. After this battle with the Southern Barbarians, his originally fair face had turned a lot darker.
"I have good news for my sister."
