Although the news came from the servants of the General's Mansion, officials such as Shen Qianhua and An Junshan could confirm the truth of the matter only if they saw His Royal Highness Prince Yu alive with their own eyes.
While waiting anxiously, four figures finally appeared at the door of the hall.
Although the person walking in the middle was being supported, looked weak, and coughed twice from time to time, it could be confirmed that he was His Royal Highness Prince Yu, who was already dead.
Even though they were well prepared, everyone was still surprised.
Afterwards, most of the officials showed excitement on their faces. In the past few months, Di Xin had proved his ability with his own strength, and they had already accepted His Royal Highness Prince Yu to become the general of the border gate.
Seeing that the Turks' southward invasion plans have failed one after another in the past few months, the lives of the people at the border are getting better and better. Even after the tax reductions and exemptions, the monthly taxes are still collecting more and more... As a member of the border official system, with vested interests, Naturally, they hope that Di Xin can survive.
"I have met His Royal Highness Prince Yu in my humble position."
As Shen Qianhua took the lead in kneeling, all the officials present followed suit and saluted.
"Ahem..."
Di Xin coughed twice, and with Xizi's support, he walked to the main seat and sat down. He said casually: "Everyone, please get up and sit down."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
After getting up and sitting down, Shen Qianhua glanced at Zeng Hongshen and Song Qianwei who were standing behind Di Xin with some surprise, and his eyes especially stayed on Zeng Hongshen.
As the former first-in-command in the administrative system of Yanqueguan and now the second-in-command, the Chief Envoy Shen Qianhua naturally knew that Zeng Hongshen was the innate grandmaster beside Emperor Xin.
However, except for this time when he went deep into the grassland, His Royal Highness Prince Yu never kept Zeng Hongshen by his side even when he went out of the city. However, today he was still in the general's mansion, and he followed him closely.
Burying his doubts in his heart for the time being, Shen Qianhua said happily: "A few days ago, Mr. Zeng came back and told us that something happened to His Highness, which really shocked us. Now that we can see His Highness return safely, we are humbled. Everyone can finally rest assured."
"yes……"
"Yes, it's great to see His Highness safe and sound."
…
After Shen Qianhua finished speaking, the officials in the entire hall fell into a commotion.
Di Xin weakly waved his hand to signal them to be quiet, and then smiled weakly: "You can't blame Mr. Zeng for this. When I was chasing Ashinas that day, I was accidentally seriously injured by him, and then I lost contact with Mr. Zeng. .”
He seemed to have no strength. He paused here and took a few breaths before continuing: "To be honest, if I hadn't been lucky enough to be saved by Miss Song, my life would have been hanging by a thread this time."
"correct."
Di Xin motioned Song Qianwei to take a step forward and introduced: "This is Miss Song Qianwei. She followed me all the way from the capital to the border. Without her, you wouldn't be able to see me today."
"I have met all my lords."
Song Qianwei knelt down and saluted gracefully.
Shen Qianhua praised her in her heart for what a wonderful woman she was. She raised her hands and said, "Miss Song has made a great contribution this time. I will definitely report it to the court to ask for credit for her."
Song Qianwei shook her head slightly and said: "Since these days, I have been taken care of by His Royal Highness Prince Yu, and he has been deeply gracious. These are all things I should do, and I dare not talk about any merit."
At this moment, she put away the willfulness she had developed in the General's Mansion, and seemed to have returned to being a member of the underground organization. She was naturally calm and calm in her speech.
"You still have to take credit, so Miss Song doesn't have to refuse."
Shen Qianhua hesitated for a moment and then said: "It's just that I have to trouble Miss Song to tell you in detail what happened before and after rescuing His Highness and back to Yanque Pass."
After speaking, in order to prevent misunderstanding, he explained: "Don't worry, Miss Song, this is not an interrogation. I need to explain to the court the previous memorial that mistakenly reported the death of His Highness, so I need to know the detailed process."
Song Qianwei turned to look at Di Xin and saw him nodding slightly before saying again: "To be honest with you all, I wanted to follow His Highness before, but His Highness refused. Then I ran away secretly."
After saying this with some embarrassment, she seemed to inadvertently reveal her and Di Xin's cultivation level: "At that time, I thought in my heart, if His Royal Highness Prince Yu can go to a martial arts cultivator in the early stage of the day after tomorrow, what is the state of my late stage in the day after day to come? can not go?"
Among the officials, except for the martial arts cultivators and sorcerers who could detect the cultivation level, the rest of them were shocked. They did not expect that an ordinary woman next to His Highness would actually have a late acquired martial arts cultivation level.
As for His Royal Highness Prince Yu's realm, they knew it before, but now they were just reminded.
Song Qianwei continued: "So after His Highness and Mr. Zeng left, I followed them secretly. Later, when I found His Highness Prince Yu, he was lying on the ground covered in blood, but Mr. Zeng was nowhere to be found. .”
Everyone nodded slightly. According to what Zeng Hongshen said before, he was now thinking that His Royal Highness Prince Yu was dead and chasing the murderer, so the time was right.
"I come from a martial arts background, and I am used to keeping some first-aid medicines on my body. However, these medicines did not have much effect on His Highness's injuries at that time. However, His Highness Prince Yu was blessed with great fortune and was able to survive in the end."
Seeing that Song Qianwei stopped here, Shen Qianhua subconsciously asked: "What happened next?"
Then Song Qianwei never spoke until Di Xin said softly: "It's okay. Others will always know about this. There is no need to hide it for me."
"yes."
Song Qianwei Yingying gave a salute and said in a low tone: "A warrior in the early stage of the day after tomorrow can bear the full force palm of the innate grandmaster of both magic and martial arts. If he doesn't die, he is lucky. How can nothing happen?"
She finally said bitterly: "Although His Highness survived, his cultivation was destroyed and his foundation was damaged due to lack of timely treatment. He will never be able to practice again in the future."
Along with these words, Di Xin coughed slightly.
"Because it took too much time, and I also want to know if there is a doctor in Yanque Pass who can repair His Highness' foundation and allow him to practice again. After His Highness was able to move his body, we rushed all the way back."
After saying her last words, Song Qianwei returned behind Di Xin, and Zeng Hongshen standing next to her also showed a face of self-blame and helpless regret.
In stark contrast to the two of them, Di Xin was sitting in the main seat.
All the officials looked silently at His Royal Highness Prince Yu, who had a calm expression on his face, as if he was not the one whose foundation had been destroyed.
The only sound in the hall was the occasional uncontrollable coughing of Di Xin.
