652 Love Is Not Encountered in a Hundred Years (If you don’t like emotional dramas, don’t enter)
The sound of horses' hooves slowed down, and as the distance shortened, the waiting officials were able to see the leader.
Many officials had not seen Cui Jing for a long time, including Chang Kuo. They had not seen each other for nearly five years. When they met again, they saw that the young man was still as eye-catching as they remembered. Time and war had given him an even more awe-inspiring aura.
.
Sweat washes his handsome face like a spring, refreshing and cleansing him. When he dismounts, his robes flutter, carrying the warmth and freshness unique to the summer wind.
In this situation, if you focus on that face first, it is inevitable that you will take precedence over others. Self-disciplined people have begun to reflect on whether they are too shallow, but after repeated questioning, they feel that it is really not the case.
...Such a degree of beauty is truly rare in the world. It is only human nature that they will be deprived of their sight.
Everyone reconciled with their love for beauty very well, but they just reminded themselves repeatedly not to be fooled by this beauty, thus ignoring the dangers of this person.
All the officials consciously lined up on both sides to greet this young general who had made extraordinary achievements.
Cui Jing dismounted ten steps away from everyone, and at this moment he only looked at the figure walking towards him.
Everything in the world was quiet, and the chirping of the cicadas seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. However, he clearly did not lose his hearing. He could clearly hear her brisk footsteps, and even the sound of her clothes gently blowing in the wind as she walked.
It's also clearly audible.
She walked over with a smile and was about to reach him when Cui Jing belatedly raised her hand. Just as she was about to salute, Li Suining quickly reached out and held his left wrist.
In Cui Jing's feeling, time and the sound of wind suddenly slowed down.
The sleeves of her gown were as soft as flowing clouds, and her fingers were clean, white and strong. When Cui Jing looked at them, he subconsciously felt at ease. It seemed that after separation, she should not be injured again. Although she must be in a hurry, at least she would be
It's really good to take good care of yourself.
Now that he is back, he will definitely not let her get hurt or put in danger again in the future.
All his thoughts lasted only a moment, and the sound of violent beating in his chest quickly covered everything up.
Li Suining picked up Cui Jing and turned around to walk towards the crowd.
The summer wind blew up the corners of their clothes, Li Suining in front and Cui Jing in the back. She pulled him with a smile, and he let her pull him in a daze.
Some officials in the front couldn't help but be stunned when they saw this.
This...this, although it is said that the holding of hands between kings and ministers has been a good story since ancient times, and the general's great achievements should be treated differently, but...this scene looks like it is hard not to think too much!
Is it because there are differences between men and women among the monarchs and ministers? Is there something wrong with their perspective on this matter?
Everyone's hearts were stirred up one after another, and there were many speculations in their minds, but no one dared to reveal anything. The leading officials raised their hands and saluted, and their voices were as usual: "I would like to congratulate the general on his triumphant return!"
The sounds of salutes and congratulations came and went.
Li Suining calmly pulled Cui Jing to the front of the crowd. At this moment, he naturally let go of him, and he returned the courtesy to everyone: "Excuse me, my lords, please wait here."
As everyone stepped forward to greet Cui Jing, Chang Ji, who was standing not far away, looked at the young general who was surrounded by the crowd but was not overwhelmed due to his height advantage... Chang Ji felt his eyes were stabbed.
It hurts.
What he saw at this time was completely different from what Changji had imagined.
The Governor Cui in his imagination - rushing in the scorching summer sun, must have a tanned and red face, a stubble on his face, dry lips and flaky skin, and a sour smell of sweat all over his body!
But why is the Governor Cui in front of him as clean and charming as a hibiscus? His appearance and beauty are even better than before!
Beauty in this world can be unreasonable, but if it is so unreasonable, Changji will definitely not believe it if she says that she has not dressed up carefully in advance!
He suspected that Governor Cui must have been hiding in the car all the way. At least he was wearing a hat to protect himself from the sun. More importantly, he must have washed his hands and changed clothes early when he was at most five miles away...
As expected of a member of a noble family, in terms of scheming, he is not comparable to ordinary generals!
Can no one see such serious scheming? Couldn't a concubine with military experience also see it?
Changji felt helpless and resentful when he noticed a pair of eyes looking towards him. He glanced at him with his peripheral vision and knew it was Cui Yuanxiang, so he deliberately avoided those eyes.
Yuanxiang pursued Changji's gaze, but Changji continued to avoid it, looking to the right or left, looking at the sky, or staring at the weeds on the roadside, refusing to look at Yuanxiang, vowing not to leave Yuanxiang behind.
Opportunity to show off demonstrations.
However, Yuanxiang persisted and got closer and closer, almost putting his eyes on Changji's face.
"Changji, you also have a problem with your eyes?" Yuan Xiang asked: "The other injuries should be okay, right? How is your health these days?"
"..." Changji looked at Yuanxiang's concern, which didn't seem to be fake, and felt that this was clearly the relaxation and generosity of a winner. He didn't bother to treat him as an opponent anymore, and he was so friendly to him just now!
Chang Ji felt humiliated. Yuan Xiang noticed his emotions, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "I'll treat you to a drink later. When I was in Lingzhou last time, I promised to celebrate your success!"
Not far away, among the officials, Wei Shuyi smiled and said to Cui Jing: "Wei has been waiting for Governor Cui in the capital with Her Royal Highness for a long time. Today we finally waited for Governor Cui to return in triumph."
Cui Jing looked at him: "Thank you so much, Prime Minister Wei, for caring about Cui so much, I will have a banquet and wine to thank you in the future."
"I'll serve the wine! Come back to my place!" Chang Kuo smiled heartily and walked over with a tiger stick.
Cui Jing raised her hand and saluted him: "General Chang."
Chang Kuo nodded with a smile, stretched out a hand, first patted Cui Jing's shoulder, then hit Cui Jing's chest, and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, not bad!"
Although it was inevitable to lose weight when traveling in the scorching heat, he was still quite strong and he was very satisfied.
He had already heard what Meng Lie said in general. In a way, he could be regarded as half a father-in-law. It would be reasonable for him to be a father-in-law.
After finishing what his father-in-law should do, Chang Kuo asked what a father should ask: "By the way, is that brat of mine also in the vanguard?"

Qiao Yubai quickly stepped forward to greet him, waving to the figure who had just dismounted: "Happy New Year!"
"Yuba!"
Chang Sui'an dropped the reins and walked over quickly, hugged Qiao Yubai, and patted Qiao Yubai's back hard. Qiao Yubai felt that his heart and lungs were about to be beaten out: "...the battle was really not in vain.
Yes, you are so strong!"
"Of course, we haven't seen each other for almost five years! Yu Bai, you have changed a lot, you look like an adult!" Chang Sui'an looked at the crowd and asked, "Are my father and Ning Ning here?"
"They're all here!" Qiao Yubai confessed, "But please remember..."
However, before he finished speaking, Chang Sui'an could not wait and ran over quickly.
Li Suining and Chang Kuo came over.
Chang Sui'an was as happy as a three-year-old child, almost jumping up and shouting: "Dad, Ning Ning!"
"Pah!" Chang Kuo slapped his son on the head and glared: "What Ning Ning? Call your highness!"
Qiao Yubai was not surprised when he failed to remind him. Well... after all, he was beaten by his father because of this.
"Dad..." Chang Sui'an's eyes suddenly turned red.
It's not because of pain, Dad didn't use even 20% of his strength, otherwise he would have flown two feet away, he just... missed Dad's big ear scraper too much!
You know, he hasn’t seen his father for 1,800 days!
Chang Sui An put down his robe and knelt down to Chang Kuo, choking and kowtowing: "Dad! My son is unfilial and has never been able to serve you by your side..."
Chang Kuo felt very embarrassed and was about to drag him up when he suddenly heard a sound behind him, accompanied by the sound of hasty footsteps: "Sui'an is back!"
Chang Sui'an raised her head and saw the eldest princess coming quickly with Li Tong. Chang Sui'an first called "Sister Li Tong", and then wanted to call the eldest princess, but she didn't know what to do on such occasions.
How to shout appropriately? He looked at the grandmother whom he had already recognized with a questioning look.
He was kneeling there with tears in his eyes. He was weak and well-behaved. In the eyes of a mother, he was naturally pitiful and cute, and she couldn't refuse. In addition, the eldest princess thought this was a good opportunity to challenge her, so she approached Chang Kuo from an angle that Chang Kuo couldn't see.
Sui'an nodded quietly and cast a loving and encouraging look.
Then, Chang Sui'an pursed his lips and let out an earth-shattering cry: "Aniang!"
Then, an equally loud and choked response sounded: "Hey! My son!"
Chang Kuo's eyes widened and his scalp tightened: "?!"
Just shout it out in public?
He is still waiting to get Qiao again and let this woman Li Rong spend more time on him!
This shout was clearly heard by many people present.
Except for Qiao Yubai, who was dumbfounded, everyone looked at her in shock. Everyone saw the eldest princess Xuan'an stepping forward and holding up the young general Chang who had returned from the battle with tears in his eyes.
Most people didn't react.
First of all - Her Royal Highness is holding the hand of the general. I wonder whether the monarch and his ministers are in harmony with each other or there is something else going on?
At this moment, I suddenly heard that the eldest princess Xuan'an and general Chang Xiao were called mother and son. I wonder if this mother and son originate from blood, or because Zhongyong Hou Gan is the eldest princess's subordinate?
If it was the latter, according to the temperament of the eldest princess, why was she so moved and lost her composure?
If it's the former... doesn't it mean that Marquis Zhongyong and the eldest princess secretly gave birth to a child many years ago without telling everyone?!
Everyone felt their heads were buzzing.
But they are all mature officials. On the surface, they should not make a fuss about other people's private affairs, and they are not likely to find out the truth face to face - although they really want to.
An official saluted Her Royal Highness, and then offered the salute to General Cui Jing, suggesting: "It's hot here, and noon is approaching. Please go to the city as soon as possible, General Cui Jing."
They were really a little impatient and eager to get back to talking.
Li Suining looked at Cui Jing and said with a smile: "General, please come back to the city with me."
"Yes, Cui Jing obeys the order."
After Cui Jing agreed, she did not mount the horse immediately. Instead, she followed Li Suining to the front of the carriage and raised her arm.
Li Suining also naturally supported his raised arm and boarded the carriage.
Everyone who witnessed this scene couldn't help but feel surprised when they looked at Governor Cui - what kind of rebellious General Xuance was, this was clearly the wolf dog of Her Royal Highness!
He waved and he followed immediately!
They have been working with Governor Cui, who has wielded great power at a young age, for many years. Have they ever seen this person be so obedient?
This person's attitude towards Her Royal Highness is particularly loyal, but he also shows love and affection. What is behind this...
Seeing the Queen's chariot approaching, Cui Jing also got on his horse to follow. An official finally couldn't help but stop Wei Shuyi and asked in a roundabout way: "The Prime Minister Wei is a close confidant of His Highness the Queen... I wonder how Prime Minister Wei views this matter?"
"
Wei Shuyi smiled slightly and rarely said bluntly: "You don't need to worry. Cui Ling'an is both wise and brave. Although he is worthy of being feared, he unfortunately has a love brain that is rare in a century. This is where this person lies."
Everyone had different expressions when they heard this. Some people doubted the belief and said, "But what if...he just used this to gain the trust of Her Majesty the Queen?"
Some people also whispered: "Even if it is true at this time, people's hearts are the most changeable. How can we simply rely on this?"
If this person ever wants to steal power, wouldn't it be easy for him to do so?
"Yes, this person has to be guarded against..."
"Prime Minister Wei should also advise Her Royal Highness to think more carefully..."
There is nothing private to say about anything related to the Emperor. Although some of the people who spoke had their own calculations, what they said was all advice that was in line with the balance of pros and cons——
They will never look down upon the Queen who has come all the way here, and naturally they will not superficially think that the Queen is deceived by her beauty. On the contrary, this may be the Queen's check and balance...
However, the advantages and disadvantages of this strategy are obvious. The disadvantage is that if the emperor's wife chooses someone with a heavy army, even if the emperor's wife has no different intentions, it is equivalent to handing over a knife to those who have different intentions. This will be a huge hidden danger, even if it is not
An immediate outbreak would not be conducive to the stability of the people of the country and the DPRK.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Wei Shuyi doesn’t think there is anything wrong with the thoughts of these adults, but they really don’t understand Cui Ling’an well enough. Cui Ling’an’s obedient attitude is not just telling
Everyone [I am very obedient]?
Cui Ling'an looked like a dangerous wolf just now. He tried his best to control his aura, and even tried to learn to wag his tail twice to make himself look obedient and safe enough.
Wei Shuyi wanted to laugh a little. He really didn't expect that Cui Ling'an would be able to live like this in his lifetime - could this be regarded as one thing descending upon another, one monkey tied to another?
But Cui Ling'an probably underestimated how dangerous he was in the eyes of everyone.
Wei Shuyi smiled, put his hands on his hands and got into the car. He didn't say anything more. It would be useless to say more. He just looked down.
Not far away, Chang Sui'an helped his mother-in-law get into the carriage. Chang Kuo saw this scene and threw down the carriage curtain with a groan: "You bastard, you will forget your father when you have a mother... let's go!"
Chang Sui An originally wanted to help his grandma and then his dad, but in the blink of an eye, his dad's carriage had already driven away.
Chang Sui'an was about to get on the horse, but Qiao Yubai, who finally took the opportunity, pulled him aside and asked in a low voice: "Sui'an... Princess Xuan'an, is she really your biological mother?"
Didn't Sui'an's biological mother pass away a long time ago and was buried outside the city? In the past few years when Sui'an was away, he had added to the grave, pulled out grass, and burned paper... What on earth was going on?
?
"I haven't asked Dad about the details yet...I'll tell you later when I find out more about it."
Seeing that he was also confused, Qiao Yubai had no choice but to nod, and then asked: "What about Ning Ning and Governor Cui..."
After Qiao Yubai asked, he felt a bit outrageous. He was not such a garrulous person to begin with...but these two things were so unstoppable.
When asked about Ning Ning and Governor Cui, Chang Sui'an had something to say, and he even looked a little proud.
