Phoenix Hairpin Chapter 677: Return
Top recommendations:
It was originally scheduled to travel for about ten days, but it was compressed by half.
Five days later, Prince Li Jing and his party returned to the capital.
Not many courtiers came to greet them outside the city gate. Among the civil servants were Qiaoge Lao Luo Shangshu and others, and the number of generals was even smaller. Only King Xingyang led solemnly.
The Marquis of Guangping rebelled and was stabbed to death by the Crown Princess. The Marquis of Puyang has yet to receive the military order, and he is still in the military camp honestly. Both General Liang and his son were dead, and Liang Erlang led the imperial guards to guard the palace. After counting, only the King of Xingyang remained.
When everyone met, they felt like they were separated from each other.
"The ministers welcome the return of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Under the leadership of Mr. Qiao Ge, all the ministers bowed their hands together.
Li Jing's injury has not yet healed, and he is in a hurry to hurry. These days, he has been worrying a lot, and has trouble sleeping and eating. At this time, he was barely sitting in the carriage and could not get off the carriage and walk.
"Aiqings, please get up." Li Jing said in a hoarse voice: "Time is urgent, I want to go back to the palace immediately. There is no need to waste time here."
After a pause, he said, "Please ask Mr. Qiao Ge and King Xingyang to get on the carriage, and we will talk while entering the palace."
Qiao Ge is always the grandfather of the prince's direct relative, and King Xingyang is the prince's father-in-law. A civil servant and a military general are the most powerful forces of the Prince's faction. He is also the person that Prince Li Jing relies on the most.
Elder Qiao Ge and King Xingyang hand in hand together and boarded the prince's carriage one after the other.
The prince's carriage entered the city gate.
The city gate guards who guarded the city were replaced, leading a group of defending soldiers to kneel on the ground.
After a few days, the fierce battle that took place here has disappeared. The corpses that had piled up like mountains on the ground were also cleaned up.

On a closer look, there are still bloodstains in the crevices of the stone. He sniffed hard, and he could smell the lingering smell of blood.
This tragic war left deep scars on the hearts of the people of the capital.
Today, the prince returned to Beijing, and there were not many people watching the fun along the way. Many shops on the street were closed, and there were few people.
Li Jing stared out of the car window in silence. After a while, he retracted his gaze and looked at Qiao Ge Lao: "Grandfather," and then to King Xingyang: "Father-in-law. These days, you have worked hard for you."
In just a few days, Qiao Ge has aged for more than ten years. Originally half-white hair, now there are not a few black hair left, almost all white. The wrinkles on the forehead and the corners of the eyes are deep and tired.
Li Jing's grandfather's cry made old Qiao Ge feel sour.
Qiao Ge Lao suddenly flashed the face of Emperor Yongjia's tragic death in his mind, his throat seemed to be choked by something, and his voice trembled slightly: "Just come back, Your Highness. The emperor's dragon body has always been placed in the Wenhua Hall. In the ice cellar. It is not the way to go on like this. When Your Highness returns to the palace, immediately ring the death knell and arrange the funeral for the emperor!"
Li Jing's eyes turned red and nodded: "I also have this plan."
Although Li Jing and Emperor Yongjia were at odds with each other, and the tragic death of his own father, Li Jing was uncomfortable enough.
Lu Lin glanced at his son-in-law with pity, and said in a low voice, "Your Highness is sad and sad, and I feel the same way. However, there are many things waiting for Your Highness to do at the moment, please support your Highness."
The concern in the words warmed Li Jing's heart. He rushed to Lu Lin and nodded: "Father-in-law, don't worry, I can hold it." Then, he asked in a low voice, "Father-in-law, how is Xiaoyu now?"
Lu Lin, as a foreign minister, is of course unethical to stay in the East Palace. However, the capital was in turmoil, and the people in the palace were in turmoil, and these rules were no longer relevant.
Lu Lin has been staying in the East Palace. Since Lu Mingyu woke up, he has spent at least an hour by the bedside every day. Knowing Lu Mingyu's situation the most, he heard the words and replied, "The crown princess was injured in her chest, but she didn't hurt her heart or lungs, but the wound was deep and she lost a lot of blood. She had to lie down and rest. The imperial doctor said that she could stay in bed for at least two months. "
"Don't worry too much, Your Highness."
How can Li Jing not worry?
He couldn't wait to have two wings on his back, and immediately flew into the palace and flew to his wife, children and mother.
In front of Mr. Qiao Ge, Li Jing was inconvenient to say more, and his eyes showed a strong apology and self-reproach: "It's my useless husband who has caused Xiaoyu to run around and get hurt."
It's true that you are useless.
Lu Lin snorted inwardly, and his expression became more gentle: "His Royal Highness said this, it is too outlandish. Husband and wife are one, and the crown princess should do these things. The most thrilling time has passed. Your Highness will return. It's time for Beijing."
The more reasonable the father-in-law was, the more guilty Li Jing felt.
There is no time to talk about this.
Li Jingjing nodded and asked Mr. Qiao Ge, "Is the mother okay?"
Elder Qiao stayed in the palace for several days, and met Queen Qiao every day. Hearing this, he sighed: "There are so many changes in the palace, and the queen is also trying her best to support it. After returning to the palace, see you, Your Highness. Empress, please feel relieved!"
Whose daughter is distressed.
Lu Lin felt sorry for the injured Lu Mingyu.
The most distressed of Qiao Ge is naturally the thin and haggard Queen Qiao.
……
An hour and a half later, the carriage arrived outside Donghua Gate.
Outside the palace gate, Zeng's corpses were all over the place, and the blood flowed into rivers. After a few days, the **** atmosphere was still strong~IndoMTL.com~ The palace gate opened, and Liang Erlang personally led more than a dozen royal guards to greet him.
Li Jing was helped from the carriage onto the soft sedan and carried all the way to the Wenhua Hall.
He wanted to go back to the East Palace first. As a prince, as a son of man, you must first kneel, kneel, cry, and cry to the emperor who died tragically, to appease the courtiers.
Several Shangshu adults have been left in the Wenhua Hall, and at this time they all bowed down to greet them.
Li Jing doesn't have to pretend, he is also tired and worried, his red eyes full of sadness and sadness: "Everyone, please get up. I'm going to see the emperor first, and I'll talk about it later."
The first thing I did when I returned to the palace was, of course, to "welcome" Emperor Yongjia.
The dignified son of the emperor died and was not buried. The body was placed in the ice cellar. This kind of opportunity is really bleak.
The first thing Li Jing did was exactly what the ministers wanted.
Queen Qiao hurried in, just in time to see Li Jing, who was haggard and pale, about to get off the sedan chair. Queen Qiao held back her tears, stepped forward quickly, and supported Li Jing: "You are still recovering from your injuries, your body is weak, how can you walk."
Li Jing turned his head and looked at Queen Qiao: "Mother, come with me to welcome the father and emperor."
If you don't have the strength, you have to walk, and you have to crawl over. How can a son sit in a soft sedan chair to kneel and worship his father.
There are more words to swallow right now.
Queen Qiao responded with red eyes, supporting Li Jing and walking slowly. On the other side, Lu Lin walked over quickly and supported Li Jing's other arm.
Lu Lin's strength was much stronger than Queen Qiao's, and calmly, he supported most of Li Jing's body.
Li Jing glanced gratefully at the unparalleled good father-in-law.
Lu Lin raised his eyebrows slightly.
Hello, it's all for Xiaoyu.
In the future, if you dare to take your heart, I will be the first to forgive you.
