Instead of doing this, it is better to stay in the Zhenbei Hou Mansion. The master here is a rare talent in the world. He is in a high position, but has no airs and a gentle temperament. The mistress is also very gentle to them and treats them very well.
If you stay here, at least you will be well fed and clothed, you won't have to be beaten, you won't have to warm your bed, you won't have to be spoiled, you will still get paid, and you can even marry into a good family in the future.
One is a palace like heaven, and the other is a home like hell. Naturally, they should know how to choose.
Hearing the sound coming from the door, Qi Xiaoyu also raised his head and said with a sweet smile,
"Welcome to our home, distinguished guests."
As soon as Nian An saw Qi Xiaoyu, he said bitterly,
"Oh, isn't this Mrs. Zhenbei Hou? Do you want a daughter-in-law to salute you?"
"Hmph, I should be the one to salute the princess."
Qi Xiaoyu said angrily.
"Then what are you waiting for?"
"Waiting for you to bring out the gifts you brought."
"Hey, when I go to your house, do I have to give a gift before I can get in?"
"How can you be a guest in someone's home without bringing a gift? No way, the princess must not even understand this etiquette."
Qi Xiaoyu and Nian An were chatting and talking so lively that the others were used to it and sat down one after another.
It's strange to say that Qi Xiaoyu has such a good character, but Fairy Nian'an and Xuanyi don't like her, and they don't know why.
Of course, Nian An and Fairy Xuanyi don't like each other very much either.
If I had to put it into words, it would probably be the friendship between women.
Everyone else was familiar with the situation, but Zhao Long and Eunuch Huang didn't know the nature of the two girls, so they felt a little embarrassed sitting on the chairs.
Fortunately, there is someone here to warm up.
Wang Fugui rubbed Xin'er's little head and said,
"Xin'er, did you cook all the dishes for this big table?"
"That's for sure, Xin'er is the most powerful."
Chai Yuan also agreed.
Hearing this, Xin'er pointed to a plate of dishes on the table with a little embarrassment and said,
"Actually...only that one was made by Xin'er."
It was a plate of cold tomatoes. The tomatoes were chopped into large and small pieces, as if they had experienced a massacre of corpses. There was also a handful of sugar sprinkled on top.
The sugar was not spread out, it was all nestled in the middle.
Well, at first glance, it is Xin'er's handiwork.
So, everyone moved their chopsticks one after another, fearing that others would eat them all if they were too slow to grab it, so they enthusiastically picked up the plate of tomatoes.
Han Yun: "As expected of Xin'er, her craftsmanship is excellent."
Qi Xiaoyu: "Xin'er's cooking skills have surpassed those of my sister."
Nian'an: "Xiao Yuxin has grown up."
Wang Fugui: "It's worth it to be able to eat my sister's cooking in this life."
Chai Yuan: "This cooking skill is better than the royal chefs in the palace."
Eunuch Huang: "As expected of An Nanhou's sister, the taste of this dish is even better than An Nanhou's Taoism."
The eldest prince: "I really hope I can eat Xin'er's cooking every day in the future."
Zhao Long:???
Hearing this, Xin'er was extremely happy. She immediately slapped the table and announced,
"Then Xin'er will make it for everyone to eat every day."
Everyone:???!!!
…
After the banquet dispersed, the group went back to their rooms to rest. Han Yun's mansion was very big, so they didn't go to the inn and stayed directly at Han Yun's home.
Early the next morning, Han Yun and others went out and walked towards the military camp in the north of the city.
Today is the ceremony to hold the title of Marquis. As a Marquis of Military Merit, Han Yun will naturally be awarded the title in front of many soldiers.
The platform for the conferred generals has already been set up, right in the middle of the guard training ground.
At this time, the big shots at Yumen Pass were already waiting there.
Eunuch Huang took Han Yun and first went to the camp where the Zhenbei Army was located, because they escorted many of the royal gifts and they are still with them.
Han Yun needed to change clothes first, put on the official uniform of a marquis, and then wait until the ceremony started before entering.
After Eunuch Huang gave the clothes to Han Yun, he immediately led the people and led the marquis's guard of honor to the general stage.
On the training ground, more than 200,000 troops have already gathered, lined up neatly, holding weapons and looking ahead.
Located in the middle and on the west side are the 150,000 garrison troops. To the east are the Yue Family Army and the Zhenbei Army. The Qi Family Army is at the very edge.
I have to say that the current guarding force at Yumen Pass is really complicated.
Today is a very formal day. The head of the Qi family is wearing a marquis official robe and standing at the front with the elders of the Qi family. On this special day, Qi Xiaoyu's parents, as father-in-law and mother-in-law, have also been invited.
When they learned that they were coming to attend the son-in-law's ceremony, they were excited and nervous.
Next to the head of the Qi family, Marshal Nie Ze and a group of generals formed a serious formation to wait for him.
Among them is Xie Xing.
Zhao Long is in front of the Zhenbei Army Formation.
While everyone was waiting to see, a team came in from the camp gate.
All the soldiers looked over there, but a large number of them could only see the helmets of the people in front.
The soldiers standing in the front rows saw the coming figure.
They were a group of big shots, including a prince in a yellow python robe, a high eunuch in red, and a high civil servant in a bird suit.
Behind them were a group of guards, holding ceremonial guards and other items.
Xie Xing looked at the group of people nervously, searching for a figure he wanted to see among them.
Finally, he saw a tall woman dressed in white and holding a sword in a ponytail.
Suddenly, his eyes became moist.
Although the girl had changed a lot, he still recognized the girl he had watched grow up at a glance.
The group of people stopped in front of the general stage, waiting for an auspicious moment.
Nian An, on the other hand, walked quickly towards Xie Xing.
Xie Xing strode out of the queue without any military orders.
Nian'an flew over the general platform. At this moment, all the Yue family troops saw her.
Many veterans recognized her and shouted out.
"It's Marshal Yue's eldest daughter here!"
"She's here! She's really alive. General Xie didn't lie to us!"
"It's really the princess! She's here! She's finally here!"
"Our princess came to see us, she came to see us!"
"Is it her? I'm taking a good look, is it her? Damn it, what caught my eye?!"
What caught your eye?
Nature is not wind and sand,
But tears.
The soldiers who had never seen Princess Nian'an understood what was going on after hearing the shouts of the veterans.
Six years after Marshal Yue passed away, the Yue family's army dispersed and dispersed. Now there are only 50,000 people left, and they are still like a child without a mother.
Who can understand their suffering?
Nian'an's white clothes beat the snow and landed in front of Xie Xing.
Xie Xing stopped, his eyes were red, and he looked at Nian An's face carefully.
"Uncle thank you."
A smile appeared on Nian'an's face, he spoke slowly, and started to move forward.
However, Xie Xing stretched out his hand to stop her.
Xie Xing shook his robe, knelt on one knee, and shouted,
"General Xie Xing, please pay your respects to the princess!"
Then, there was a crashing sound from behind.
Fifty thousand troops of the Yue family, under the gaze of two hundred thousand people, knelt down on one knee in unison, holding their halberds and shouting in unison,
"The Yue Family Army pays homage to the Princess!"
"The Yue Family Army pays homage to the Princess!"
"The Yue Family Army pays homage to the Princess!"
The shouts resounded through the sky and were deafening.
Most of them have never met Nian An, but when they meet, they are loyal!
This army, which had already had its designation revoked, finally today,
