Ancient magic returns to the royal city.
There were only dozens of people, not the thousands of troops as imagined.
There was no one in the royal city to greet them as expected, everything was so normal, as if no one knew they were coming back.
"Your Majesty, we're here, do you want to wait?"
When they arrived in front of the city gate, one of the guards in armor suddenly shouted.
It has been more than ten years. Although there has been no major war outside, the prince himself is still fighting for the dynasty. How can it be so deserted?
Gu Shu did not answer, but sat on his horse and looked at the city gate with a smile on his face.
His thoughts were different from those of the guards. He was thinking of his wife and son at this moment.
How is your wife doing after being away from home for so long? Should her son be as tall as you?
"What are you waiting for? What's there to wait for? Let's go back home first."
Although he didn't know why he was suddenly asked to return to the DPRK, he felt that it must be related to the dissatisfaction of the people in the DPRK with him some time ago.
Maybe His Majesty couldn't withstand the so-called pressure, so he had no choice but to recall himself.
Not only was there no one to greet me, but I was also stopped when I entered the city gate.
If it weren't for the prince's token, even the city defenders wouldn't recognize him.
Walking in the city with the guards, Gu Shu took a deep breath as he watched the changes in the city.
Not only him, but also the guards around him are like him.
He was just an adult when he left, and he was middle-aged when he came back.
I wasted more than ten years of my youth, gave up marrying and having children, and followed the prince to guard the border. When I came back, everything had changed.
However, he found that no one in the entire royal city remembered his contribution. This feeling was extremely frustrating.
"Your Majesty, when we left, there was probably a clothing store here. I remember you grabbed a handful of dirt here."
After hearing this, Gu Shu showed a smile, reached out and touched his arms, and took out an exquisite bag.
The soil is still there and the bag is intact, but things have changed before our eyes.
"Whether you come back or not, it's time for you guys to get married and start a business. Then I'll find you a wife here in the city and live a good life."
When Gu Shu said this, he was a little sad and felt a little uncomfortable.
As for why he felt uncomfortable, Gu Shu knew it in his heart, but he couldn't tell it in front of these guards.
The entire Xie Yue owes them a little attention, and these people will be satisfied.
But no, since I came back here, it has been very dull, and there is not even a single person who should appear.
"Your Majesty!"
At this moment, someone touched the prince's clothes.
"She seems to be the princess!"
Gu Shu raised his head and looked forward following the guard's gaze.
There were a group of ten people. If the leader was not his princess, who was it?
The excitement made him subconsciously take two steps forward. When he was about to rush forward, a familiar figure appeared in his sight.
The whole person was dumbfounded. Looking at this familiar figure, the recent events began to appear in his mind.
Everything was explained with the appearance of this figure.
He knew why His Majesty suddenly recalled him and why no one came out of the city to greet him after he returned here.
It's because of the woman in front of me, this seductive woman who can't be any more seductive.
Why are you walking with your own princess?
At this moment, he found the previous question, and a series of question marks appeared in his head.
The princess stood far away, leading a group of servants, and stood there, looking at her prince.
He is much older and has many wrinkles on his face, but he is still the prince she knew.
After a long time, she rushed out, hugged Gu Shu, and rushed into his arms.
No one spoke, and there were many people watching this scene on the street.
"Aren't you excited at all?"
Feng Mingming looked at the silent Gu Yun beside him, took the other person's hand, and stroked the other person's palm twice with his fingers.
Gu Yun hummed.
He really didn't have any excitement, which was completely different from what he thought in his heart.
Before I came back, I was so excited every time I received a letter. But when I suddenly appeared, I found that it was so strange.
It was completely different from when I first met Feng Mingming.
"He is your father!"
Feng Mingming smiled slightly, held the other person's hand with his other hand, patted the back of his hand, and said, "Go, at least let him know that you are his son."
It was only then that Gu Yun slowly took a few steps forward.
“We’ll talk about it when we get back first, and we’ll talk about it when we get back!”
But before he could take a few steps, Gu Shu had already pulled the princess and was about to go back.
The whole time, it was as if she didn't recognize him, and she just looked at him a few times.
Because she was so excited, the princess also forgot about this incident and just followed the ancient technique to the palace.
Standing behind the two of them, Gu Yun smiled bitterly.
I seem to have been forgotten.
"Why are you still standing there stupidly? Go back!"
Feng Mingming walked up to him, looked at his dazed look, and couldn't help but laugh.
………
In the palace, Hong Zhi was sitting at the table reviewing papers. In front of him, a servant was reporting to him.
"Your Majesty, the prince is back."
"oh!"
"The princess went to pick her up with the enchantress and more than ten servants."
"The witch is also here?"
At this time, Hong Zhi finally raised his head.
"I'm going, Mr. Hu is following me from a distance."
Hong Zhi took a deep breath, seemed to be particularly concerned about this, and asked again: "How many people have come back in total?"
"Including the prince, there are ten people in total. Those ten are all the guards he brought to the border."
Hong Zhi was slightly startled: "Guard of the palace?"
"Shadow Guard, half missing!"
He put down the pen in his hand and walked to the door. Not knowing what he was thinking, he suddenly turned back.
"Just come back and I won't disturb them."
"Your Majesty, the ministers are still waiting for you to come to court."
Hong Zhi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "If we don't go to court today, let them all go back."
Going to court?
When Dynasty returned from the border, forget it without picking him up. What should he say when he went to court at this time?
Give the prince another hat?
Not to mention that there is no evidence at present, just this kind of approach will make the entire Xie Yue people look down upon.
It will only make his Hong family's reputation drop again.
But he couldn't help it. With the ancient technique, not to mention these ministers, even he became suspicious.
"But……"
"Let them all go back!"
Hong Zhi's voice rose a bit, and the frightened man suddenly lowered his head and slowly backed away.
Sitting in front of that table, Hong Zhi could not calm down no matter what.
After much deliberation, I feel that I still need to find someone to express my inner feelings.
